I'm not just human!

Starting as an Outer God, He was hunted down by a Golden Cleanser of the True God rank. He was hunted down all the way to becoming a Quasi-Celestial Venerable, then to becoming a Celestial Venerable. Then, the number of Golden Cleansers hunting Him increased to more than fifty.

The children of the true gods present asked themselves, if it were them, let alone being hunted down by more than fifty Golden Cleansers, even if just one came, they would die!

In this situation, not only did Uncle Absolute Defense not die, but he also attained the position of a true god...

It's important to understand that ascending from a Celestial Venerable to a True God is no simple matter. Not only is the probability of losing control and going insane extremely high, but one also needs to complete the True God ritual guided by spiritual intuition!

And Uncle Absolute Defense actually accomplished all of this while being chased by more than fifty Golden Cleaners...

They were truly forged and grew through blood and fire!

Xia Fa was deeply shocked as he listened.

He never expected that the Lord of Absolute Defense would have such a poignant and fierce past.

"In other words, while being relentlessly pursued, Lord Absolute Defense was unable to break free, and seeing that humans, demi-humans, as well as the Nature Monarch and the Supreme Law, were about to be annihilated by the Great Old Ones, in this extremely critical moment, He finally broke through and became a true god—"

"That's right, and then Father immediately turned the tables and killed those fifty-odd Golden Cleansers, arriving at the last line of defense between humans and demi-humans, rescuing [Nature Monarch] and Uncle [Supreme Law], and killing [Fallen Evil]."

[Overpressure Collapse] Speaking of this, I can't help but sigh:

"There's a folk saying that goes, 'Like father, like son,' but why am I not that fierce? Sigh, if I were that powerful, I would already be supporting Uncle Paradox Clown."

Xia Fa also discovered this problem. Among the nine righteous gods, [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Joker] may possess overwhelming power due to their shared origin.

However, their two sons, namely [Overpressure Collapse] and [Necessary Fist], are much like other children of the true gods.

Why is that?

"What if I have a son with Chestnut in the future, and he won't be able to inherit my vigor...?"

Xia Fa thought about it with some worry, but he also knew that this matter was still far off.

After all, if a way to deal with those more than 10,000 gold cleaners cannot be found within a year, then all talk is just empty talk.

With a "click," the door opened, and graceful maids dressed in luxurious robes entered, carrying trays of dishes from bygone grand feasts.

The so-called Great Feast of the Old Ones is a top-notch delicacy made from various supernatural creatures and extraordinary fruits and vegetables cultivated using the remains of the Old Ones as nourishment.

This afternoon, when Xia Fa went to the banquet, the other gods who had adventured with him in the inverted pyramid pooled their money to treat him to this meal.

However, due to limited resources, only three dishes were served at the old grand banquet, and they were reluctant to eat them, so they let Xiafa eat them instead.

Xia Fa didn't eat it all by himself; after some polite refusals, they shared it together.

Now, the old feast in my stomach has been mostly digested, and the main thing is that the burning feeling in my heart is starting to return, so I need to replenish a lot of extraordinary ingredients.

So now is the perfect time to have a big meal.

As the old feasts were served, some were quite gruesome, consisting of stewed octopus tentacles and pig eyeballs, while others looked like fragrant meat patties fried on both sides. Along with other various old delicacies, the table was filled with them.

Xia Fa counted at least thirty rounds, and couldn't help but marvel at the wealth of the children of the righteous gods.

Even if I were to use all my savings now—except for the things I can't sell—I probably couldn't afford such a grand feast from the past, while the children of the true gods probably eat it every day.

Immediately, he began to follow aristocratic etiquette, taking a knife and fork and eating.

After taking only a few bites, Xia Fa felt it wasn't enough, so he simply conjured up a pair of chopsticks. The children of the gods didn't find it strange, after all, the real world plus the Star Spirit Realm was just too vast, and dining customs varied from place to place, which was normal.

As they were eating, the [Playful Traveler] stood up first, holding a glass of wine in both hands, and turned to Xiafa.

"【Absolute Attack】Brother, come on, let me toast you. We're so close, bottoms up!"

Xia Fa was somewhat surprised, but he still quickly stood up, held his wine glass with both hands, and clinked glasses with Him.

To his surprise, when the [Playful Traveler] offered a toast, the rim of his glass was deliberately half a meter lower than his.

This was a sign of great respect for him, and no matter how indifferent Xia Fa was to worldly matters, he couldn't help but feel quite pleased.

Immediately afterwards, [Flame Princess], [Dismemberment Giant Axe], and [Gummy Fairy] also stood up to toast Xia Fa.

Previously, everyone was either discussing serious matters or listening to [Overpressure Collapse] recount Uncle [Absolute Defense]'s past, and there hadn't been a proper opportunity. Now that it was finally a suitable time, they naturally began to show goodwill towards Xia Fa.

Long before Xia Fa arrived, the children of the righteous gods had already heard of Xia Fa's incredible feat, that he had actually withstood a punch from [Overpressure Collapse] with his divine body.

Even though [Overpressure Collapse] restrained its own power and only exerted the strength of a Quasi-Celestial Venerable, it was still incredibly incredible.

In particular, they, as children of the true God, understand even more what this means.

This means that... Xia Fa possesses the same potential as [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Joker] in their youth, and has the potential to become the strongest true god!

You should know that even these children of the true gods do not possess the qualities of the strongest true gods; at most, they are lucky if they have the qualities of a true god.

Therefore, even though Xia Fa is currently only a follower of God and does not even have the right to act with them, it does not prevent people from showing him goodwill and respect.

The children of the true gods were prepared to die long ago when they decided to re-enter the world. Therefore, for them, Xiafa is the seed for continuing their extraordinary civilization.

Or perhaps, the partners who have fought side by side for the past few months will only remain until Shafa grows a bit more and becomes an Outer God.

Seeing that everyone had finished toasting, but only [Necessary Fist] hadn't made a move, [Overpressure Collapse]'s expression turned cold, and he was about to say something.

Just then, the [Observer of All Things], which had been hovering above the dining table, shuddered and slowly opened its eyes, with countless streams of information flashing through them in an instant.

"found it"

Chapter 409 Another Time Travel! A Shocking Upheaval in the Era of Mutants? (Part 1)

"found it?"

[Overpressure Collapse] He placed his hands on the table, leaned forward with his thin body, and stared intently at [Observer of All Things] in the air. His expression tensed up to the extreme in an instant.

Not only Him, but the other children of the true gods were the same, not daring to even breathe loudly, their eyes, each a different color, fixed on the young scholar-like figure in the air.

The Observer of All Things, however, remained serious, not even glancing at the crowd. His eyes were filled with countless ancient cryptic texts, as if he were brewing something. A dangerous and extremely unstable violent fluctuation emanated from his body.

vomit!!!

Suddenly, He clutched His belly, opened His mouth at an exaggerated angle like a python, and spat out a puddle of water, which fell onto the table with a thud.

To Xia Fa's surprise, none of the children of the righteous gods, who were always of extremely high status, avoided them with disdain. Instead, they stretched out their bodies and surrounded them.

It was a pool of seemingly solid glue, slowly rotating, with the Silver Cleaner, which they had seen before, about to transform, inside the vortex.

At this moment, it was riding on that magnificent, dragon-like silver-armored warhorse, galloping through the Protoss Realm, casually swinging the majestic and heavy greatsword in its hand, cleaving open Protoss rifts and weaving through them.

Without the need for the "Observer of All Things" to explain, everyone has already figured it out.

"Could it be that it is about to undergo a true transformation and is looking for a relatively safe place?"

He murmured, "[The necessary punch]," and suddenly his brows furrowed.

"Is it the Time Mist? This is troublesome..."

Within the swirling pool of water on the table, the Silver Cleaner, which was rapidly moving, once again raised its sword and swung it. From the Protoss rift it had opened, a strange gray mist began to emanate!

Even so, the Silver Cleaner rode in without hesitation, seemingly unafraid.

As for the Cleaners, we still don't know much about them, but what is clear is that the Time Mist, which even the Nine Great Gods dared not enter at will and the Great Old Ones dared not hide in, seems to be something they can use.

Just like that disastrous gathering of unknown beings, the three Celestial Venerables, including the Apostle of Knowledge, had taken almost absolute measures to prevent divination and spying, but the Golden Cleanser Alm the Greatbow still managed to infiltrate through the Time Mist.

Before that, this was an absolutely impossible method that no one had ever seen.

"Don't worry, everyone. Now that I've 'observed' it, it can't escape."

The Observer of All Things slowly landed beside the table, casually grabbed a piece of succulent steak, and while wolfing it down to replenish its energy, continued:

"We are currently facing three challenges: first, we can't intercept it; second, we're likely to alert it; and third, it will definitely need to find a safe place before undergoing its final transformation, which it won't do while on the move."

"So, we'll wait until it stops and prepares to transform before we make our move?" [Overpressure Collapse] pondered.

“Yes, that’s right. Everyone, don’t leave the City of Gold Pounds during this time. Once it finds a place it considers safe, I will notify everyone.” [Observer of All Things] nodded.

[Flame Princess] then snapped her fingers with a rather dashing air, "Give me the coordinates when the time comes, and I'll teleport everyone there together."

As a Celestial Venerable, and possessing the [Eternal Flash] ability, she can teleport people throughout the entire universe, which is extremely convenient.

If she weren't afraid that the Silver Cleaner would notice her appearance immediately and escape into the Time Mist, making it difficult to catch up, she would have already taken action.

"That's settled then. We'll wait for the [Observer of All Things]'s instructions and continue eating and drinking for now, hahaha."

[The teasing traveler] then spoke with a smile, his expression much more relaxed.

With the strength of the children of the righteous gods, now that they have found this Silver Cleanser, dealing with him should not be difficult; the real problem is that they may not be able to find him at all.

Therefore, now that it has been found, everyone is no longer too worried.

Everyone else thought the same thing. The only question was, who would ultimately get the supreme artifact, the "Core of Cleansing and Metamorphosis"?

Seemingly sensing each other, [Overpressure Collapse] and [Necessary Fist] suddenly exchanged glances, their eyes clashing on the table. Then, they both snorted coldly, neither willing to concede to the other.

But at this moment, the [Playful Traveler] stood up again, holding up his cup, and looked at Xia Fa.

"【Absolute Attack】Little brother, come on, let me toast you again. Relax, don't be shy, hahaha."

……

The meal was very enjoyable. Although Xia Fa drank over a hundred cups of wine, he was not drunk at all. On the contrary, he felt full of energy, and his extraordinary power seemed to be overflowing.

After all, these wines are extraordinary wines brewed from Outer God fruits. Perhaps because the brewer's rank did not reach that of a true god, they are not as good as Gastis the Great Axe's Ice Strawberry Wine. However, each bottle has its own unique characteristics and is quite delicious.

The small restaurant was a mess of cups and plates. [Overpressure Collapse] and [Dismemberment Giant Axe] were on either side of Xia Fa, their arms around each other's shoulders, preparing to help each other out the door.

[Dismemberment Giant Axe] is the boy who carries an exaggerated giant axe. It was only when drinking that Xia Fa learned that he was also the son of [Wrong Rules], and a half-brother of [Playful Traveler].

As for the little princess who always observes everyone with her quiet and beautiful lake-blue eyes, her name is [Gummy Fairy], but she is the daughter of [Nature Monarch].

"Xia Fa, here you go~"

【Gummy Fairy】at this moment, pulling on her sky-blue skirt, she ran over and stretched out her fair and delicate little hand in front of Xia Fa.

In her palm was an amber-colored gummy candy covered in icing sugar, emitting a refreshing aroma.

"This is what I secrete; eating it can help with hangovers!"

【Gummy Fairy】opened her mouth in a soft and chewy voice, her big eyes looking at Xia Fa with innocence and kindness.

Xia Fa smiled and freed one hand to take the candy. As she took the candy, her fingertips accidentally touched the palm of [Gummy Fairy].

The quiet little princess trembled slightly and immediately withdrew her hand.

Although she is at least over ten thousand years old, like other children of righteous gods, she has always been well protected by her father. She rarely even has physical contact with men, let alone falls in love.

Therefore, even if Xia Fa's fingertips only touched her soft palm, she was quite sensitive.

Xia Fa, however, smiled broadly, appearing quite sunny:
