I'm not just human!

Chapter 507 Arrogant Fools, Powerless (Part 1)

It was as if a bright ray of dawn had risen in the boundless darkness.

The nine righteous gods were all taken aback, and suddenly felt in their hearts that they had truly found hope!

Yes, Xia Fa is only a Celestial Venerable now, yet he can already defeat over six thousand Golden Cleansers. If he becomes a True God, how many could he defeat? One hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand?

In this situation, let alone the strongest King of the Golden Cleansers born from the origin of the universe, even if a God of the Golden Cleansers came, it wouldn't matter!

"Three days, just three days. We just need to figure out a way to get through these three days—"

[Absolute Defense] murmured, seemingly racking his brains to figure out how to escape the clutches of the King of the Golden Cleansers in these three days and survive until the [Ancient Secrets] are born.

[Faulty Rule] The head in the very center suddenly flashed a look of worry: "But what if, three days later, the King of the Golden Cleansers is also guarding the place where the [Ancient Secret] was born?"

Upon hearing this, the hope that had been rising in the hearts of the nine righteous gods trembled again, as if it was about to be extinguished.

Unexpectedly, the Moon Goddess stepped forward and said in a serious tone, "Don't be afraid. Just now, after joining forces with [Silver Universe], we have already grasped some of the basics, [Primordial Secrets]."

"If it truly comes into existence, I'm confident that together with the [Silver Universe], I can directly transfer it to Xia Fa's presence!"

"Really?" The Paradox Joker's eyes suddenly lit up, an astonishingly bright light.

"It's true." The Moon Goddess said with great certainty.

[Absolute Defense] Upon hearing this, he clapped his fist and palm together, making a loud cracking sound: "Alright, then we'll just have to get through these three days! Anyway, it seems that the King of the Golden Cleansers doesn't dare to easily awaken those ten thousand-plus Golden Cleansers. Three days is more than enough time—"

The voice abruptly stopped, and an exceptionally vast and supreme wave seemed to erupt from the deepest part of the universe, instantly sweeping across the real world and even the entire Protoss Realm.

The nine righteous gods felt a sudden tremor in their hearts, and Xia Fa's eyes flashed with brilliant lightning, ready to enter his ultimate state at any moment.

"What happened?" The Supreme Law looked at everyone blankly.

The nine righteous gods all shook their heads in bewilderment.

Everyone knows that something tremendous must have happened, a kind of upheaval that has never been seen in 30,000 years.

But no one knows exactly what happened.

Unfortunately, this happened just as the King of the Golden Cleansers awoke.

This kind of unknown fear is the most tormenting.

Suddenly, the Moon Goddess let out a soft cry, her fair hand supporting her forehead, her tall body swaying slightly, as if she were somewhat dizzy.

Xia Fa was about to go over and help her up when he saw that the Moon Goddess had already stood up on her own, but her face was very pale and filled with fear.

"I—my control over time has been stolen!"

Her words startled all nine righteous gods.

"Could it be that the King of the Golden Cleansers is already preparing to make a move? But it—" [Supreme Law] had only spoken halfway when he saw the expressions of all the gods change, and they all looked towards the outside of the city where gold pounds converged.

Originally, outside the city where gold and pounds converged, there were floating realms of gods, broken and strange domains, and extraordinary tombs everywhere. But now, the outside has suddenly become empty, as if a great battle at the level of true gods has just taken place.

In that boundless, dark starry sky, tens of thousands of enormous, mountain-like golden cleaners stood silently in neat rows, their figures appearing and disappearing in the darkness.

These gold cleaners stood ramrod straight, their hands gripping the saddle ropes, while their golden armored warhorses stood upright and quiet beneath them.

The golden weapons at the waists of each Gold Cleanser gleamed with a chilling golden light, as if they were ready to face an epic battle at any moment.

In front of the tens of thousands of Gold Cleaners lined up in battle formation, there was a Gold Cleaner whose figure was much taller than the others, who was bowing his head and wiping his sword.

Without needing to be deliberately identified, it possesses an extraordinary aura; even when it stands there on horseback, it seems as if it is about to rule the world.

Compared to it, the other Golden Cleaners were reduced from being beings of divine status to mere foot soldiers, always ready to be at its beck and call.

Yet it remained silent, wiping its longsword with its head down, its posture relaxed.

That was none other than the King of the Golden Cleansers, clad in golden armor covered in runes, all of which were runes of the Silver Throne, constantly writhing and exuding an extremely eerie aura. Even the warhorse beneath it was covered in writhing runes.

Only its heavy and solemn longsword, smooth as a mirror, ancient and weathered, had no secret inscriptions.

It gives the impression that this sword can cut down any enemy who dares to stand in its way, and that no one can stop it.

Suddenly, a gray mist rose around them, and Julius emerged from it. He was also clad in armor, but he was leading a dark gold armored warhorse, seemingly too afraid to ride to meet the King of the Golden Cleansers.

Following it came false gods such as [Embers of Glory], [Cataclysmic Tyrant], and [Supreme Judgment], as well as a fake [Temporary Reality], and more than thirty Golden Cleansers.

However, Gastis the Great Axe was not there.

"Your Majesty!"

Julius knelt on one knee, his voice trembling with both fear and loyalty.

"Yes, Julius, you've had a hard time these past 30,000 years. I've learned what happened through the Time Mist."

The King of Gold Cleaners didn't even raise his head, continuing to polish his ancient longsword, his voice surprisingly gentle.

Julius dared not utter a single objection, instead lowering his head even further, almost touching his knees.

"Your Majesty, it is my duty to cleanse the universe of all supernatural beings; it is no trouble at all."

"Alright, bring these thirty-odd Golden Cleaners into the army." The King of the Golden Cleaners seemed too lazy to say anything more, and his tone was already showing some impatience.

But suddenly, it raised its head.

Its gaze, however, was not fixed on Julius, but rather on the false gods behind him, and the fake [brief reality].

"Who are these people?

Upon seeing this, Julius immediately replied, "Your Majesty, these are false gods I secretly created using methods from the highest art of slaughter. Rest assured, they are all our own people."

boom! boom! boom!

Before Julius could finish speaking, countless strands of time-related gray mist suddenly appeared around these false gods. The mist strands seemed to transform into extremely fine steel wires, directly strangling and killing all the false gods.

Before the false gods could even scream, they were completely pulverized and then swallowed up by the sudden surge of time mist, disappearing from the world.

Julius was startled, his whole body trembled, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

It didn't dare to say a word more, and led the thirty-odd Gold Cleaners behind it to join the army of more than ten thousand Gold Cleaners.

The King of Gold Cleaners turned his gaze to the false [brief reality].

This fake [brief reality] suddenly knelt on one knee, trembling violently, its voice shaking to the extreme: "Your Majesty, I—I am not one of those false gods created with the secrets of supreme killing techniques, I am a true and extraordinary god. Lord Julius promised me at the beginning that as long as I betrayed you—"

"You're fake, do you know that?" The King of the Golden Cleansers spoke calmly, interrupting it, but then lowered his head and continued to gently wipe the mirror-like golden longsword in his hand.

After saying that, it seemed too lazy to say anything more.

"Fake, fake? No, no, Your Majesty, I—I am a genuine, righteous god who has followed the orthodox path to godhood!"

boom!

This fake "brief reality" also failed to finish speaking before its body suddenly collapsed like building blocks, turning into thousands upon thousands of extremely condensed time mist crystals.

Immediately afterwards, the Time Mist reappeared, absorbing all of these Time Mist crystals.

"snort----"

The King of Gold Cleaners gave a soft hum, stopped wiping his longsword, and turned his gaze toward the City of Gold Pounds.

The nine righteous gods witnessed these scenes firsthand, never expecting that the King of the Golden Cleansers would be so ruthless, instantly annihilating the false gods who had rendered great service, along with the fake "brief reality."

On the other hand, Julius, the oldest Gold Cleaner, had no status or dignity in front of the King of Gold Cleaners, and was treated like a lowly soldier.

Furthermore, that fake "temporary reality" seems unaware that it is fake, but the King of the Golden Cleansers did not let it go.

As for why the King of the Gold Cleaners, along with over ten thousand Gold Cleaners, suddenly appeared outside the city where gold pounds converged—

"This is one of the five fundamental eternal certificates, the [Eternal Time]? It directly reversed the timeline of the area where our City of Gold Pounds was located before?"

[The Error Rule] was the first to understand what had happened before; that massive fluctuation affecting the entire universe was likely the King of the Golden Cleansers using [Eternal Time].

Its method was so flawless and irresistible that it didn't even need to personally search for the City of Gold Pounds. Instead, it went directly to the place where Julius had last attacked the City of Gold Pounds, "reversed" time, and brought back the City of Gold Pounds that had fled that time.

It even awakened the more than 10,000 gold cleaners in the slumbering gold land well in advance, who were already on high alert there.

"What should we do?" Paradox Clown asked with a solemn expression. He never expected that, more than 30,000 years after becoming a true god, he would have such a question.

As the second most powerful god in the universe, He used to be the one who asked others what to do.

What should I do?

Everyone fell silent. No one expected that the King of the Golden Cleansers would not only attack now, but also directly awaken the army of more than 10,000 Golden Cleansers.

Escape? It seems there's no way to escape. The King of the Golden Cleaners possesses "Eternal Time," so even if you flee to the ends of the earth, it can easily reverse time and pull you back.

But are we just going to sit here and wait to die?

"Gentlemen."

A grand and imposing voice, yet tinged with a hint of nonchalance, suddenly drifted in from afar outside the city where gold pounds converged.

It was the voice of the King of the Golden Cleansers.

The gods felt a chill run down their spines, and Xia Fa was even more on high alert. Everyone's gaze pierced through the hundreds of millions of layers of golden film and looked out.

"How about we do everyone a favor and not resist? It would be best if you didn't try to escape either, so I don't have to hunt you down one by one."

"Perfect, you're all gathered in this place."

The King of the Gold Cleaners spoke calmly, seemingly in a discussion, but in reality, his words were filled with domineering and disdainful intent.

Among the nine righteous gods, veins immediately bulged on the foreheads of [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Clown]. The two brothers had roamed the universe for 30,000 years, and this was the first time they had encountered someone who disregarded them so much.

The other gods also had angry or gloomy expressions as they stared at the Golden Cleanser King outside the city, who was leisurely carrying an ancient longsword.

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as agreement. From now on, anyone who dares to run away won't die so easily."

The King of the Golden Cleaners raised his longsword and slightly shook the saddle rope in his hand.

The golden armored warhorse beneath it immediately became restless, pawing at the ground and exhaling thick white breaths from its nostrils, as if it were ready to charge at any moment.

Surprisingly, the King of the Golden Cleansers did not form a supreme battle formation. The more than ten thousand Golden Cleansers behind him, including Julius, all raised their golden weapons, ready to charge with their king at any time.

Upon seeing this, the nine righteous gods suddenly realized something and exchanged glances secretly.

Within the palace of spiritual intuition, the voice of the "erroneous rule" resounded.

"This guy, does he think he's invincible, so he doesn't need to form a supreme killing formation and can just charge in with those ten thousand-plus Golden Cleansers?"

The Paradox Clown almost immediately said, "That's possible. It doesn't know that Absolute Defense has become stronger and can now fight more than a thousand Gold Cleaners like it, nor does it know that there's this peerless powerhouse, Third Brother."

The voice of [Nature Monarch] suddenly became excited: "So, this is—an opportunity?"

This is indeed an opportunity. If Xia Faken goes out to launch a sneak attack now and catches the King of the Golden Cleaners off guard, he might be able to kill it instantly!

If we really wipe it out instantly, what's there to fear about the remaining ten thousand-plus Gold Cleaners?

Xia Fa had obviously thought of this as well. A ruthless glint flashed in his dark eyes, and he prepared to take action.

Suddenly, a strange tremor ran through his mind, and he realized something. He quickly said, "No, something's not right! There's a trap! It couldn't possibly not know our information. The Time Mist records everything from the past, and as the owner of [Eternal Time], one of the five fundamental-level eternal credentials, it can freely access any information and intelligence within the Time Mist!"

These words had just been conveyed in the palace of spiritual intuition when that supreme and magnificent wave, as if emanating from the very origin of the universe, surged forth once more.

The nine righteous gods, the Moon Mother Goddess, and Xia Fa all felt a flower bloom in the surrounding world, and then everywhere, clocks with reversed hands appeared, clicking and clattering.

Immediately afterwards, ten of them were actually transported back in time to the King of the Golden Cleaners!

The nine great gods and Xia Fa had all entered and exited this City of Gold Pounds, and naturally they would have passed through the space where the King of Gold Cleansers resided. Only the Moon Mother Goddess, because she had already encountered Xia Fa when the City of Gold Pounds had been moved to another place, had never passed through this area, which is why she was not pulled over by the King of Gold Cleansers.

However, even with only the Moon Goddess remaining in the city, it seemed that nothing could be changed.

boom-!!!

In that instant, an aura of supreme power and unparalleled majesty, terrifying beyond imagination, suddenly rose from the King of the Golden Cleansers. Behind him, the more than ten thousand Golden Cleansers, including Julius, all lowered their heads, their eyes losing their luster.

The supreme battle formation was formed in that instant!

With a soft, almost imperceptible "whoosh," the King of the Golden Cleansers, seated atop his towering horse, swung his longsword with unparalleled speed.

This ancient and weathered longsword expanded infinitely in an instant, almost occupying the entire Tian Er, and with overwhelming force, it slashed towards the nine righteous gods and Xia Fa!

Space shattered in an instant, turning into chaos, which further annihilated into nothingness, and the long sword that blotted out the sun approached, almost unstoppable.

Furthermore, under the effect of [Eternal Time], the movements of the nine righteous gods and Xia Fa were reset infinitely, making it difficult for them to even raise their hands, let alone use their abilities.

Gazing at the sword blade, neither large nor small, slashing towards them, even the [Stand Against Defense] character showed a look of disbelief for the first time.

Just then, Dick Tudor's anxious voice suddenly rang in Xia Fa's mind.

"Shafa, now's the time to crush the star I gave you!"
