However, this lump of clay is in a floating state and is not real.

The moment the demon saw the mud, his eyes lit up, and his greedy desire for the mud seemed to overflow.

"The Creation Tablet! You actually developed it to the point where it could penetrate the possibilities of the world?!"

"How was it?" Mystra withdrew his hand, and the mud clod disappeared.

“Let’s continue our cooperation, you rotten demon!” Mystra softly called out the name of the demon before her.

Upon hearing the name, the demon paused, then sighed: "I would have preferred you to call me by my earlier name."

“The rotten demon…” the demon murmured, then looked at Mystra.

“To continue our cooperation, I need you to make some noise and draw Nemus’s attention away from the abyss.”

"I will become a demon lord during this period."

"With him around, I might discover something."

"Although he is young, he doesn't know much about the secrets of the past."

“But… I still feel we can’t underestimate him,” the Rotten Demon said.

"I know, I'll cover for you."

“But don’t forget, only I can help you!” Mystra looked at the other person and said seriously!

Chapter 843 Ancient Gods and Deflection

Time passed little by little.

Three months may seem like a long time, but in reality it's only a short time.

Soon, the Low-Dimensional Hunting Ground had been implemented for almost two months.

However, compared to the bustling low-dimensional hunting grounds, the whole world seemed unusually quiet at this moment.

Anyone with even a modicum of sensitivity can sense the abnormality of the world at this moment.

Various religions are pushing for some degree of change.

During this process, any unstable factors will be quickly eliminated.

In this respect, the reform of these theistic religions does not face as much resistance in the possibility of a new world.

The reason why the God of Discipline faces great resistance in his potential reforms in other worlds is that other religions have not undergone significant changes.

And here, all churches are changing to some extent.

Once an atmosphere is established, others can sense it, and their resistance naturally weakens.

Of course, this is also because these divine reforms were not very extensive, and were more about preparing the church for war.

"Is the change I triggered also within my perception?" At this moment, Nemus felt that his 'divinity' was becoming increasingly exaggerated.

Understanding change, and even, conversely, pursuing change.

At this moment, it is no longer him trying to understand change, but rather he and change understanding each other.

At this stage, he is able to sense the magnitude of changes in the possibilities of the world at hand.

They can sense the world gradually moving towards its end, its primordial matter returning to mud, and even know what kind of changes their actions will bring to the world and the universe.

At this point, he was able to begin to extract divine power from the changes he had caused.

“If I take just one more step, I will be able to break through the limitation of ‘self-caused’. Even if I lose my godhood, I can still extract divine power from all the changes. It’s just that this last step is not easy.”

Nems opened his eyes.

Under the influence of the "marginal diminishing returns effect," his speed of digesting cognitive beliefs has now reached a certain level.

As long as there is any knowledge about him and the changes he has caused, he will acquire it and then quickly digest it.

At this stage, understanding faith becomes less important.

"I'm currently considered to have intermediate divine power, but I still don't have enough time."

"If I had a few more years, even if I hadn't made any further breakthroughs in understanding faith, my divine power would still have reached the level of a powerful god."

"I just don't know if the powerful divine power combined with the path of the ancient gods will allow me to rival the powerful divine power of my current deflection force."

According to the moon goddess, a deflection force is formed by the condensation of ten percent of the deflection state.

One dose can increase the quality of divine power by about twice, and it also has a variety of wonderful uses.

Currently, there are more than a dozen possible worlds. One of these worlds has a deflection state of 70°, which can extract seven parts of the deflection force and is the world with the greatest degree of deflection.

The possible deflection states of other worlds are roughly between 20° and 50°.

"So strictly speaking, the deflection force is about sixty to seventy parts."

"If all of it is concentrated on one god, it can increase the quality of his divine power by sixty or seventy times."

"But that's unlikely..."

"Even the sun god could probably only control half of the deflection force at most!"

"That is, about thirty times stronger than the power of a regular divine being."

The requirement for powerful divine power without deflection is that the reserves and output of divine power exceed ten million.

But this is just the basics.

For example, the Moon Goddess has a divine power reserve of about one billion units due to the existence of her divine kingdom, which is the accumulation of hundreds of millions of years.

If it weren't for the fact that the more divine power stored, the larger the divine kingdom would have to be, and the greater the consumption, the divine power it had stored over the years would have long exceeded one billion.

The maximum output of the Moon Goddess's divine power is around 30 million.

This surpasses even some powerful divine powers, and is not considered weak among powerful divine powers with deflection capabilities.

According to the Moon God's rough assessment, the upper limit of the Sun God's divine power output is around 50 to 60 million.

"It seems the God of Discipline was indeed seriously injured and hadn't fully recovered," Nemus remarked, reflecting on the stroke of luck they had during the last divine war.

The God of Discipline should be slightly stronger than the Moon God. Under normal circumstances, his divine power output would be around 35 million.

If the divine war strategy is perfected, the output of divine power may increase further.

Unfortunately, due to the loss of his divine status and the fatal injury, the God of Discipline's previous divine power output was only five to eight million.

Furthermore, as the divine war strategy is restricted, the divine power output of the God of Discipline is decreasing further.

"Once the deflection force intervenes, the divine power will not only increase in quality exponentially, but also increase in output efficiency due to the increased quality, thus easily reaching the top threshold of the astral plane."

Just like the upper limit threshold for numerical output in the material plane is ten thousand.

When the numerical output reaches 10,000, space and time will find it difficult to bear. At this point, even if the numerical output itself exceeds 10,000, reaching 17,000 or 18,000, the actual output after reaching the outside world may only be 10,000.

The output limit for special layers like the Astral Plane and the Aetherial Plane is 100 million.

If we cannot break through the barriers and find new technological breakthroughs, then even if we increase the multiplier of numerical output, it will be difficult to break through the upper limit of 100 million.

According to the Moon Goddess, most powerful deities, such as the God of Life, the God of Bestowal, and the God of Death, reach the threshold of one hundred million primarily through the use of deflection power.

Only the Sun God, with his already extremely strong divine power output and even greater deflection force, broke through the limit of one hundred million.

This is the power of the strongest being in the world right now.

A numerical output of over 100 million is a power capable of disrupting the astral plane, the etheric layer, and even directly destroying the material plane, turning the entire world upside down.

Furthermore, the deflection force has other ingenious uses.

Even if a god without deflection power can increase its numerical output and improve the quality of its divine power, it will still be difficult to contend with the divine power of deflection power.

That is a special ability to rewrite, distort, and even redefine the rules.

As Nemus gradually drew closer to the ancient gods, the quality of his divine power improved, and he also gained certain special abilities.

However, they still lacked confidence in truly confronting the powerful divine force.

"Therefore, I must seize a portion of the deflection force!"

Nems sensed it carefully.

During this period, as the influence of Nemes becoming the god of change spread, the deflection state has increased from 15° two months ago to 20°.

This alone is enough to generate two deflection forces.

Furthermore, as time goes by, after a period of time, the deflection will completely stabilize, and as a large number of deities take action, the deflection state will continue to change.

"At the current rate of progress, it is estimated that it will reach about 50 degrees within ten years."

"I just don't know if the world will have another ten years."

Chapter 844 Old Ones Domination

Only after grasping the changes in the world did Nemes vaguely sense that some of the world's problems had become more deeply ingrained.

The Moon Goddess possesses a reserve of one billion units of divine power.

The quality of a single point of divine power is hundreds or thousands of times greater than that of a single point of ordinary human power.

The power stored in the Moon Goddess's divine kingdom alone was enough to occupy a small portion of the prime material plane.

There are more than eighty other deities similar to the moon goddess.

That's right. Even with a little divine power, because the techniques of the divine kingdom are not difficult, the upper limit may be a little lower, but as long as they live past the threshold of a hundred million years, the divine power stored in their divine kingdom will exceed a hundred million.

A god will not die unless he is killed, and even if he is killed, he may not necessarily die.

This gives the gods too many opportunities to store up power.

Even the moon goddess is only considered average among these deities.

For example, deities like the sun god possess even greater stored divine power.

If all those gods died, the entire world would probably expand two or three times in size.

No wonder the sun god wanted to become the only god and then kill all the other gods to save his world.

The gods themselves are indeed both maintaining the world and crushing it.

Thinking of the divine realm, Nemus's attention turned to another very important matter—the divine realm of the God of Discipline.

He was the only god who stayed in the divine kingdom but was forcibly dragged out and killed.

A situation has arisen with the God of Discipline: even though he himself is completely dead, his divine kingdom continues to stand firm.

That's right. Even now, Nemus has not completely breached the kingdom of the God of Discipline.

From this perspective, gods are indeed difficult to kill.

A divine kingdom without a god in charge blocked Nemus for more than two months.

And even now, there is still no way to break through it directly.

"According to my estimate, the divine kingdom of the God of Discipline has a reserve of more than two billion divine powers."

"If we don't change our methods, with our current strength, it will be difficult to conquer the divine kingdom in a short period of time."

"It can only be consumed little by little."

Although the God of Discipline is dead, there are still many supplicants in his divine kingdom.

These supplicants did not all die in the previous wars of the gods.

Especially after the God of Discipline engaged in an ideological war with Nemus, many of these supplicants returned to the divine realm.

At this time, they were all in the Kingdom of God, maintaining its state according to past customs.

In this situation, although the divine kingdom appeared rigid and dull, it truly demonstrated its defensive capabilities.

The entirety of the divine kingdom can withstand the test; otherwise, even gods with weak divine power could not have lived for hundreds of millions of years.

"We can't delay any longer."

"If we don't conquer the divine kingdom soon, other powerful divine forces might flood into this new world's possibilities, and the God of Discipline will surely arrive as well. At that time, the problem will become serious."

“I know!” Nemus nodded. If the God of Discipline were to enter this world, a divine war with him would inevitably ensue.

And it's the kind of battle where the rules are so strict that there's no way to avoid it.

In this situation, leaving a divine kingdom for the God of Discipline is like planting a huge time bomb for oneself.
