Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

This is... divinity.

Freya couldn't help but feel a touch of human sadness—in order to save the world, they gained power, but it went against the very humanity they wanted to save.

Freya is like this, Sylvia is like this, and so is Himegami...

"Wuhu—!!! Awesome! The battle is awesome! I'm dying of pleasure!!!"

Ji Yushen grabbed the ten-thousand-mile-long cleaver that the Prime Minister had transformed into, and charged from the Dragon Realm into the deepest part of the abyss, only to return from the abyss in a single breath.

The battle shook the abyss, the black tide collapsed, and the surging black tide in mid-air was forcibly cleaved, creating a huge gap. The Dragon Realm land, which Xia Mi had just repaired, was once again reduced to dust.

"I was so frustrated before, this is what real fighting is all about! Hahahaha!"

Ji Yushen laughed loudly and plunged into the black tide once more, wielding the sword of the Prime Minister in his hand and slashing wildly.

"This……"

Freya felt like she was about to burst out of her shell, with so many complaints she had to vent.

"After all, 'war' is a concept closely related to human beings, and war is ultimately a game that requires human wisdom to play."

Sylvia was also drawn to Himegami's shouts and explained calmly, "The War Demon 'Night' is also the most humane demon, so it's normal for her to retain so much humanity."

"And my control, your memories... although they are also related to humanity, it is much more difficult to maintain humanity through authority."

For example, Sylvia can force herself to maintain her humanity by "controlling herself," while Freya can repeatedly relive her memories and emotions as a human.

But Himegami is different.

After all, that's how true gods are. The God of War only needs to fight with rage and enjoy himself, while Freya and Sylvia have to consider many more things.

"Where's Li Xianyu? Did she complete the ceremony? How is she...? Huh???"

Freya came to her senses and looked at Li Xianyu, only to see her floating in the sky with her eyes closed, her chest no longer rising and falling, and she was no longer breathing: "What happened to her?!"

Human nature, frightened, recovered slightly.

“She succeeded, so she died.” Sylvia looked over. “After all, death demons die, so the god of death naturally dies too. That’s normal.”

It's normal, Freya can understand...

But, he just died like that?

Does that mean that no one can become the true god of death, because if they do, they will die?

"Don't worry, death is not the end for me."

Li Xianyu's corpse suddenly opened its eyes and said calmly.

"Li Xianyu, you, you're not dead?"

“Almost.” Li Xianyu said, patting his barren chest. “Life and death are two sides of the same coin. After becoming the true god of death, the soul and consciousness will be divided into two parts, one in the outside world and one in the divine kingdom... one is dead, and the other is alive.”

"The Death Demon is not actually dead. The part of Him that is 'alive' is inside the Kingdom of God. After I went in, I fought a great battle with the Death Demon."

Listening to Li Xianyu's description, Freya and the other woman both had the same question in their minds: How did she win?

With legendary status, can one defeat the primordial?

Li Xianyu continued, "Actually, it wasn't really a big battle. The Death Demon was quite generous; He gave me his soul, memories, emotions, reason, authority, and essence all at once. I couldn't refuse it even if I wanted it."

That's called possession!

The two of them gained a little more humanity.

"Then, are you Li Xianyu now, or the Death Demon?" Sylvia asked, trembling.

“Li Xianyu,” Li Xianyu said naturally, “I am a necromancer, and the Death Demon… is a necromancer.”

"Although He is really very strong, He is an ancient relic from who knows how many years ago. He actually used such ancient necromancy to deal with me. I don't know if He looks down on time or on the necromancy faction."

Li Xianyu shrugged: "No matter how strong it is, it's still outdated technology. The moment it invaded me, I had already transformed myself into an undead, using my own corpse to create a cage, making it willingly crawl into the coffin called Li Xianyu... By the time it realized what was happening, it had already been almost completely refined by me."

"After all, the dead are meant to serve the living."

As she spoke, she opened her arms, and the sky was replaced by night. Hundreds of millions of souls and corpses crawled out of the divine kingdom of "hell" and returned to the world!

…………

The abyss, the place where the Amber God was sealed.

The "evil corpse," the hungry demon, finally closed its massive maw.

In his mind, the remnants of Pope John Clement III's soul finally fell silent. Although they hadn't disappeared, they could no longer affect Him.

"A mere legend has dragged this on for so long..."

The hungry demon sighed and looked up at the sky.

There, the four true gods have returned to their places, and the four primordial evils are stirring up trouble.

As Himeko fought her way through the Black Tide, she passed by this place several times. Fortunately, she hid herself well enough to avoid being discovered by the enemy.

Don't stay here for long!

He was no match for the four true gods, and the four primordial demons were ultimately mindless beasts, unsuitable as allies.

The evil corpse thought for a moment, then opened its enormous maw, capable of swallowing the stars, and began to devour the rock layers and mantle.

He wanted to bypass the battlefield of the eight source beings and, before his existence was known to others, secretly dig a path to enter reality!

(Li Xianyu - Death - Impression)

Chapter 158, Because the Sun Is About to Be Destroyed

The first thing Li Xianyu did after becoming a god was to return death to the world.

[Majesty] The authority of the Death Source is rather simple and brutal.

Because it is itself a symbol of death, the Kingdom of God does not possess the resurrection mechanism that other true gods have; it can only accommodate the unbelievers or the dead and spirits who have not been accepted by Valhalla.

As for authority, it is the power to control death itself.

Whether it's bestowing the concept of death or stripping it away, these are areas that death excels at.

The concept of death encompasses not only living beings, but also the entire world—whether it be rocks or mountains, the rules that constitute the world, or even physical and mathematical laws, all can be given death.

From the perspective of destruction alone, it is undoubtedly the strongest – simply "killing" a certain mathematical constant is enough to easily destroy the entire world.

Of course, this is under the condition that other true gods do not interfere. For example, Sylvia can dominate other rules and make them change themselves to replace a certain rule after the rule dies.

As for Freya, she can even reproduce the rules from her memories, which goes without saying.

After Li Xianyu returned the dead, the next step was the war against the Primordial One.

She forcibly bestowed upon four primordial deaths.

The Primal Ones certainly wouldn't die from this, but they lost the means to resurrect—from now on, they only have one life, while Sylvia and the others can resurrect infinitely!

The primordial demons were enraged.

Previously, neither Himegami's attacks nor Sylvia's suppression and domination could truly wear them down.

But once death is granted, there is a possibility of being killed!

Thus, these demons, who appeared in their true forms and were almost the very rules and concepts of the world, abandoned their arrogance and no longer merely gathered into a black tide to engulf the world, but instead launched a counterattack against the four true gods.

First is the demon of the [Mercy] plague.

From real-world diseases like plague, smallpox, AIDS, Ebola, typhoid, and snake venom, to virtual ones like zombie viruses, hemophagocytosis, and mutation viruses… once these diseases spread in reality, trillions of lives will be lost, easily destroying civilization and bringing everything to an end…

Unfortunately, it's useless to the true God.

After all, the physiological structure of the true gods is different from that of carbon-based organisms. What constitutes their flesh and blood is not carbon-based cells, but rather more abstract concepts that are closer to the rules and symbols themselves.

For example, what constitutes Himegami is a series of concepts such as war, killing, bloodlust, scheming, tyranny, conflict, and politics. Unless these concepts are also infected with the virus, it cannot be killed.

Except for Freya.

Before everyone's eyes, Freya suddenly spat out mycelium. Countless mycelium instantly crawled all over her body, entered her blood vessels, invaded her brain, and finally spewed out wildly from her eye sockets, ears, mouth and nose, killing her instantly!

"How could this be!"

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Freya revived her body from her past memories, successfully returning to the battlefield.

The next moment, fungal hyphae burst forth from her body again, and she was instantly killed by the plague demon!

Within the divine realm, Freya pondered for a moment, then resurrected a body from an even more distant past from her memories.

This time, Freya was unharmed.

"Why are we all fine, but you got the virus?" Sylvia covered her nose and frowned. "Have you been staying up late lately and your immune system isn't very strong? Please stay away from me, don't infect me."

Everyone else is fine, but you've passed away. And you still say you're not from the district?

Freya blushed, turned her head away, and didn't say anything.

"But Freya's body has fungus, not a virus..." Li Xianyu looked at the two Freya corpses that had fallen into the black mud, and pondered for a moment, "How could she have gotten a fungal infection in her mouth..."

Sylvia realized what was happening, blushed with embarrassment, and unconsciously curled her toes.

“As a necromancer, I have some knowledge of the bacteria and fungi that arise after a corpse dies…” Li Xianyu continued his analysis, “It seems that Freya had erythrodermic fungus, also known as dermatophyte. The Plague Demon was able to kill her instantly by using the plague that Freya already had, combined with the Primal Authority…”

"But this fungus is usually the cause of athlete's foot... Strange, how could Freya get athlete's foot from her mouth when she was perfectly healthy?"

Freya: "No, stop talking..."

Sylvia: "No, stop talking..."

It's all Cheng Cheng's fault!

The two glared at Cheng Cheng first, then Sylvia looked at Freya with some confusion: "You haven't brushed your mouth since that day?"

"I... I'm very busy..." Freya awkwardly looked away.

Because at that time, not only Cheng Cheng, but she herself was also intoxicated by the fragrance.

Sylvia's toes were white and tender, like five Alpenliebe lollipops, sweet and delicious. My subconscious thought was that the food must be safe and not very dirty...

Who knew that the sweetness came from small sugar molecules formed by fungi breaking down keratin and sugars fermented by Staphylococcus epidermidis!

So remember this? Always pay attention to food safety.
