The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

Chapter 606 Come with me for a boat trip on the lake
Inside the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower, a ghostly blue light flowed across the tower walls, illuminating faces filled with terror and anger.

Diwuya and a dozen or so earth witches were bound in the center of the tower by an invisible force. Their slender limbs were entangled in pale golden chains, and the chains made a crisp clanging sound with each struggle.

"Let us go! You despicable human!"

Diwuya gritted her teeth, her long black hair plastered messily to her cheeks from the struggle.

Zeng Shen stood before her, a playful smile on his lips. His slender fingers gently traced Diwuya's cheek, feeling her skin tremble with anger.

Why get so agitated?

Zeng Shen said slowly, his fingers tracing down her neck, "Your god, her mother sent down a divine decree, that when you see me you should see your god, and worship me as your supreme deity."

"How could this be? You're talking nonsense!" A witch from the side immediately shouted angrily. She had deep purple eyes that were now burning with rage. "My god, how could you agree to the words of such a blasphemer?"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Shen suddenly stopped smiling, his eyes becoming sharp as knives. He turned his head and said, "Don't believe me? Then let your god come out and tell you."

talking.

He snapped his fingers, and the chains binding them broke instantly, then led them out of the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower.

Followed by.

Zeng Shen also emerged from the tower, his tone commanding and leaving no room for argument: "Summon your deities and ask them for clarification."

Diwuya and the other earth witches exchanged bewildered glances.

Finally, she took a deep breath, crossed her arms over her chest, and began chanting an ancient incantation.

Other earth witches followed suit, and pale purple divine patterns appeared on their foreheads.

However, before the incantation was completed, all the earth witches suddenly stiffened. Their pupils contracted sharply, and an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces.

Because at the same instant, a cold and authoritative female voice resounded deep within their souls:
"The divine decree commands—all beings of this realm who see this Zeng Shen must revere him as a god! His life is my daughter's life! Those who disobey… will be punished by the gods and their souls annihilated!"

The voice was like ice that had stood for millennia, each word carrying an unyielding will that was deeply imprinted on their souls.

Diwuya's legs went weak, and she almost knelt down.

The earth witches beside her were even paler than before, and some of them were trembling uncontrollably.

"So you heard me?"

Zeng Shen's voice broke the silence. He walked slowly to Diwuya, reached out and lifted her chin. "Now, do you still have any questions?"

Diwuya's lips trembled, her eyes filled with shock, confusion, and fear. The image of the Goddess Xumozi flashed through her mind, her face always gentle and beautiful, a stark contrast to the strange man before her.

"No, it's impossible."

Diwuya murmured, her voice barely audible, as she desperately refused to believe it.

Zeng Shen chuckled softly, gently stroking her cheek with his fingers: "A divine decree is a divine decree, and there is no room for doubt."

He then turned to all the earth witches, "Now, tell me, how should you address me?"

The earth witches fell into a painful silence.

They have been loyal to Xu Mozi since childhood.

And now.

This stranger was suddenly elevated to a status equal to that of the deity.

What made it even harder for them to accept was that this divine message came from the Mother of Gods—that legendary being.

Finally, Diwuya raised her head with difficulty, her eyes glistening with tears and humiliation: "I obey... I obey the divine decree, Your Majesty."

Her voice was dry, as if it had been sanded.

Seeing this, the other earth witches also bowed their heads in greeting, repeating in uneven voices, "Your Majesty."

"Haha."

Zeng Shen laughed heartily upon hearing this, nodded in satisfaction, and then his gaze swept over the group of once arrogant earth witches. They had elfin pointed ears and perfectly proportioned figures, and their skin was as lustrous as pearls under the moonlight.

At this moment, these beautiful creatures seem particularly vulnerable because of the collapse of their faith.

“Very good.” Zeng Shen smiled and pointed to the lake not far away. “Now, take off your clothes and come with me to swim in the lake. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the territories of other intelligent races.”

The earth witches stiffened, a look of resistance flashing in their eyes, but the divine imprint deep within their souls made it impossible for them to disobey.

Diwuya's first action was to untie the sash of her robe with trembling fingers. As the garment slipped down, she instinctively hugged herself, her snow-white skin gleaming like pearls in the moonlight.

The other witches also took off their clothes one after another; some sobbed softly, while others closed their eyes tightly.

They had never been so exposed in front of men, let alone someone they had just considered an enemy.

Zeng Shen admired the beautiful scenery before him, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

He was the first to walk towards the lake and step into the cool water.

The earth witches hesitated for a moment, but ultimately followed.

The lake water gradually rose above their ankles, knees, and waists. Diwuya felt a chill run through her, unsure whether it came from the lake water or from her inner fear.

When the water reached her chest, Zeng Shen suddenly turned around and pulled her into his arms.

"Relax, just like before."

Zeng Shen whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her sensitive earlobe, and continued, "You will gradually get used to my presence."

Diwuya's body stiffened, but she dared not struggle.

She felt Zeng Shen's hand slowly moving across her back, and a strange feeling she had never experienced before began to spread through her body.

The other witches stood around, bewildered, as the lake water gently lapped at their bodies.

Some tried to retreat, but a sharp pain immediately shot through the divine imprint deep within their souls, forcing them to stop.

That night, the lake witnessed the collapse and reconstruction of the earth witches' faith.

As the first rays of dawn shone on the lake, Zeng Shen stood on the shore, looking at the Earth Demons lying haphazardly on the grass.

Water droplets still clung to their snow-white skin, glistening in the sunlight.

Diwuya's eyes were half-open, her consciousness still immersed in the afterglow of last night.

Zeng Shen used some kind of mysterious power on her, allowing her to experience feelings she had never felt before.

Right now, her body is in a peculiar state of relaxation.

"Wake up." Zeng Shen grabbed Diwuya's wrist and pulled her up. "You guys tidy up and clean yourselves up. I'll come find you and show you the way later."

Diwuya nodded absently, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible: "Mmm."

Zeng Shen released his grip, a hint of disdain on his face as he looked at the five faintly glowing Familia cards in his backpack space—Skull, Green-skinned Dwarf, Jelly Dumpling, Dirty Goblin, and Ratman.

“That old hag Moyas,” he muttered, “won’t even give us a decent family.”

He was particularly annoyed by that goblin card.

In order to study the goblin airship, he chose six goblin cards when he made the trade for entering the secret realm in Fireworks. Now that he has obtained this clan, it is simply a waste of his original investment.

"never mind."

Zeng Shen narrowed his eyes and looked towards the distant Divine Realm. "Since you're playing like this, don't blame me for completely transforming all the believers in your daughter's Divine Realm."

Think of this.

He glanced at the still dazed Diwuya before taking out the wormhole orbit determination card and leaving.
