Genesis: Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 404 Confrontation, the Oppression of God

the other side.

A temporary desert palace.

Liu Jun sat on a throne atop a high mountain, a hint of surprise on his face. "Amoka, it didn't succeed?"

Eighth rank, that's quite a skill.

He released a divine artifact, fully armed a seventh-level mortal, and could only severely injure an eighth-level one.

Surprisingly, he wasn't killed in one blow.

"They're probably going to follow Amoka's trail and come after us."

Liu Jun sat on the throne in the palace and pondered for a while.
“If I were Magalas, I would also stir up some trouble on the side.”

Liu Jun fell into a deep thought.

Things have become rather frustrating.

If you offend one native, you might attract a whole bunch of natives.

I am merely a seventh-tier cultivator.

Are you leaving?
If we return to the mushroom soup now, and the other party can't find the exact location of their mushroom soup, what can we do about it?
Perhaps, turning back like this is a good thing.

We've already explored information about the new universe map!

It wasn't a bad deal to just find some cannon fodder and probe for information about the eighth tier.

We've basically figured it out now, and we're sure to succeed completely next time.

There's absolutely no need to confront them head-on.

It's a bit unnecessary for one person to fight against the strongest beings in the entire universe without first enduring the hardship.

"However, let's do the math first."

Liu Jun used his extraordinary wisdom to frantically deduce the results.

He employed fate, wisdom, and the will of Heaven. The possibilities of various battles constantly shifted in his eyes.

After doing some rough calculations and pondering for a while, he thought, "It seems they aren't as powerful as I imagined."

"An eighth-order being in this universe is not considered strong."

Previously, in the old eras when divine objects existed, such as the period of magic and mythology, or the era of the goddess of fate.
At that time, even gods could not fight across a single realm!

As the era of gods has become more complete, the gods have become stronger and stronger, and the technology has become more and more advanced. Is it really impossible to fight against beings of a higher level now?

not necessarily.

No matter how strong your stats are, or how powerful you are, can you break through one mechanism or a whole bunch of mechanisms?
Although he had launched a sneak attack, he roughly understood the characteristics of the eighth rank.

Wherein lies their strength at the eighth rank?

Their shackles were like fine threads twisted into a hemp rope, fused together.

Countless shackles merged into one, forming a certain kind of Dao artifact.

The green staff, his ten chains were twisted into a green scepter.

Liu Jun pondered and said, "Hmm, the characteristics of breaking through to the eighth rank, doesn't that come with a low-end hybrid divine artifact?"

This characteristic is not strong for a god.

Because I have a more advanced and authentic divine artifact.

For Liu Jun, the strength lies in the base stats of the eighth rank.

Their numbers are a bit outrageous.

"But, after their shackles merged, why do they look so much like some kind of conceptual artifact I stole?"

Liu Jun's expression suddenly turned strange.
"Eighth-tier, could it be that they condense into one Great Dao Artifact after another, and then I just steal them?"

Once Liu Jun's idea popped into his head, it was like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, unable to stop taking root and sprouting, growing bigger and bigger, and the thought just wouldn't stop!

For some inexplicable reason, his addiction to being a thief intensified!
Just like some anglers who suddenly see a big fish and can't resist going home to get their fishing rods and go fishing for a big catch.

It's an unbearable itch in my heart.

Should we steal a piece of his thunder?
Liu Jun slowly stood up.

'It seems that not letting Amoka kill the man was the right thing to do.'

'Just acquiring the eighth-tier breakthrough technique is still a bit of a loss.'

'If the other party is itself a powerful artifact, then that party is the greatest treasure; stealing it means obtaining a completely new, conceptual artifact.'

"Greed is the source of my progress."

Just as Liu Jun was pondering, a streak of light shot towards him from afar.

It was clear that Amok was being chased while running.

"Your Majesty, Goddess of Fate, save me!"

He shouted:
"You must have predicted my failure, so my current choice must be one that you approve of!"

"So, you want me to lure them here, right?"

"I succeeded! I successfully completed your mission! I lured them here!" Clearly, as a desert bandit, he had no conscience and his motto was "better to die than see my friend die."

Furthermore, after becoming a fanatic, he firmly believed that God was invincible, so in his eyes this was certainly not inviting trouble.

Seeing this, Fortuna cursed inwardly, "What a waste. It's no use taking in a believer like this."

The words fell.

Suddenly, powerful figures from afar descended one after another.

They watched as Fortuna revealed her divine form, surrounded by concentric rings of destiny's radiance and countless Tarot cards.
"This is a god? Her divine body is imbued with primordial rules that even we eighth-order beings cannot comprehend." Gazing at the Goddess of Fate shrouded in the Ring of Fate, they all wore expressions of utter shock.

But their gaze was fixed on another ordinary man who did not reveal his true divine form.

God.

Myth among myths, epic among epics, the pinnacle of the history of gods, the saint of saints, the king of gods.

But ultimately, they are still a seventh-order civilization!
They can fight anyone at the seventh rank. The allure of profit drives them; what is death to them? What is truly terrifying is the absence of hope. Now that there is hope, they are willing to fight to the death!
And there was also information provided by the other party.

Annihilating divine power is a special mechanism that can suppress all gods!
In addition to their powerful ability levels and basic stats, they can overcome all attacks with sheer force.

Before the throne of God, Fortuna, standing beside him, nodded slightly. "You should feel honored."

"Honor?" Green Staff asked, puzzled.

Fortuna said, "Because of our arrival, this universe has been elevated to a higher dimension, and mortals on earth have been liberated."

“We want to free ourselves,” another tall, burly man stepped forward.

God sat on his throne, looking down at the mortals, and said nothing.

Instead, Amoka stepped forward and shouted like a lackey:
"You lowly mortals dare to challenge the high and mighty gods? Your courage is commendable! You are utterly unworthy; you have no idea what kind of higher-dimensional beings they are!"

God glanced at Amoka indifferently. "That makes sense. You'll be in charge of dealing with these guys this time."

"Me?" Amoka was completely stunned.

I just ambushed them, but I couldn't beat them all.

Now you want me to fight a whole group?
Amok's face was filled with disbelief and shock. Was he telling me to die?
God's gaze suddenly fell on the Green Staff Emperor opposite him. "It just so happens that I borrowed a divine artifact from the God of Thieves during this trip."

Having said that, the low-level thief's divine item, [Shift and Swap], was thrown out.

It landed on the Green Staff, instantly replacing his natal artifact, the Green Staff.

Green Staff felt that he had lost something and gained something else, and that an incredible power had been added to his body.

"This is... the divine essence of a god? I've become a god?"

Before he could rejoice for long, he heard God's voice faintly echo across the sky: "Transformation, I command you to return."

As soon as the words were spoken, the divine object within the Green Staff emitted a crisp sound:
If it is your wish, I will certainly comply.

As soon as God spoke, it was done.

To everyone's astonishment, the divine artifact that the Green Staff had just replaced flew out.

Boom boom!

Green Staff was already injured and couldn't withstand the extraction of this divine artifact. Now it coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His entire state of mind plummeted.

Having lost his primordial artifact and divine object, he cried out in terror, "My body... is finished!?"

"This is illogical! How can there be such illogical things!" He finally couldn't take the successive blows and burst into tears.

God toyed with the green staff artifact in his hand, then casually tossed it to Amok, saying, "Take this; it has eighth-tier characteristics."

Amok was overjoyed, "I obtained a primordial artifact that can only be condensed at the eighth rank, so does that mean I'm at the eighth rank?"

He happily put it on, only to find that there was still no reaction on his body.

With the addition of Dao artifacts, he seems to be a special seventh-tier being with primordial Dao artifacts.

"Isn't that enough?"

To everyone's astonishment, God spoke softly, calling out to Amok, "Realm, I command you to break through."

A voice came from inside Amoka:
“If it is your will, I will obey.”

The various powers within Amoka's body began to rapidly transform, climbing from the peak of the seventh rank to the eighth rank, instantly radiating an astonishing aura.

The eighth-tier emperors and powerful figures from various civilizations below all showed expressions of extreme shock: "His words are law, and his realm breaks through at his command as soon as he speaks?"

In reality, his words carry weight, and he can only do what he is capable of doing.

If this body doesn't have the conditions for a breakthrough, or the foundation for that final push, then naturally it can't break through.

It was only by helping Amoka steal the characteristics that only those at the eighth rank possessed, and then by shouting at his body, that he was able to break through to the eighth rank. However, this breakthrough was achieved with the help of the stolen "Dao artifact" equipment, and this person's potential for this lifetime was thus exhausted.

But to outsiders, this is already an outrageously exaggerated miracle!
God sat quietly on his throne atop a high mountain, looking down at the crowd below. "Amoka, go. This is the second time. Don't disappoint me again."

God's voice was calm and serene, revealing the eternal indifference of a divine being, and he spoke softly:
“If any mortals come before me again and I have to deal with them personally, then you have no reason to live.”

Amoka nodded, nervously observing all the powerful figures in this world before him.
