I'm not just human!

late at night.

The stars twinkled, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.

This garden-like abode of the gods actually changes day and night along with the outside world, although the day and night cycle of the city where gold pounds converge has long been artificially controlled by the [Silver Universe].

Xia Fa woke up from the bench in the pavilion with a yawn, but without delay, he immediately took out the envelope containing his heartfelt message from his waist.

As soon as it was taken out, the face of the "Observer of All Things," wearing thick, glass-bottom-like glasses, appeared, looking both anxious and excited.

"Xia Fa, the Silver Cleaner is at a critical moment of transformation, which is also when its vigilance is lowest and its defenses are most vulnerable. We should not delay and will set off in five minutes!"

Finally, it's here...

Xia Fa stood up, a hint of ambition flashing across his face.

In the afternoon, he first pushed the critical loss of control to the fifth time, and then he refined the sacred metal given to him by his second brother [Paradox Clown] into his body, making his entire right arm as strong as a secret treasure, comparable to the strength of an ancient secret treasure.

Therefore, he was full of confidence for this operation.

This time, no matter what, I must get my hands on that core of cleansing and transformation that can increase my chances of becoming a true god!

Chapter 455 Facing the Oldest Golden Cleanser? Xia Fa's Battle to Make Him Famous Across the Universe! (Part 1)

"Mist Eagle Position, two Saint-level Miniature Spatial Teleportation Instruments and Star Charts."

"Nine Fish Positions, five miniature concealment ritual star disks of the demigod level."

"Phase division, ten Protoss coordinate stabilizers, anchoring the Celestial Venerable's position..."

In the ancient and enormous library, the space that once held tens of thousands of tables has now been completely cleared out. A huge ritual array is being constructed, surrounded by scattered books, some of which still emit a faint glow from their inscriptions.

The Observer of All Things is holding a star chart and is making final checks and adjustments to this large ritual array.

His celestial compass was clearly no ordinary object. At first glance, it looked like a bronze compass, but above it floated more than a dozen dazzling stars, moving in an extremely complex orbit, each being pulled by the other's gravity.

[Observer of All Things] When a location is confirmed, several corresponding stars will light up.

Beside this large ritual array, [Flame Princess] stood with her long legs crossed, looking utterly bored. Suddenly, she yawned, and a glistening tear rolled down her cheek.

Not only her, but also about a dozen children of the righteous gods, including [Overpressure Collapse], [Necessary Fist], [Teasing Traveler], [Gummy Fairy], and [Dismemberment Giant Axe], were silently waiting beside her.

However, the [Playful Traveler] maintained a smile throughout, appearing very patient, while the [Dismembering Giant Axe], clutching his exaggeratedly large axe, seemed somewhat drowsy.

As for [Necessary Fist], he kept a tense expression, seemingly in a very bad mood.

Conversely, the person experiencing "overpressure collapse" is filled with joy and feels as if they have finally vented their anger.

Of course, He didn't argue with the Fist of Necessity like He used to. In fact, even the Playful Traveler doesn't dare to provoke the Fist of Necessity now.

The reason... is quite simple. The children of the righteous gods don't need to ask, because [Overpressure Collapse] had already given everyone a vivid account half a day ago.

No one could have imagined that Xia Fa, who possessed the appearance of the strongest righteous god... would actually be the younger brother of [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Clown]!

Under the imposing presence of his father, the Paradox Clown, [Necessary Fist] had no choice but to bow and address Shafa as "Uncle." However, he and Shafa had previously seemed to have a strained relationship, so it's no wonder he was in a bad mood.

In contrast, [Overpressure Collapse], who initially introduced Xia Fa into the circle of children of the gods, was naturally very happy, since Xia Fa had given his rival a head start.

"Speaking of which, when will Uncle Xia break through to Outer God? With his current strength, which is comparable to the First Heavenly Venerable even at the Divine level, if he were to break through to Outer God..."

[The Playful Traveler] Seeing that the large ritual array was about to be completed and knowing that Xia Fa would arrive in a few minutes, he brought up the topic appropriately.

[Overpressure Collapse] (Smiled)

"Don't worry, with Uncle's talent, breaking through to Outer God is a sure thing. Even breaking through to become a True God shouldn't be difficult. The only question is whether he can do it within this year, especially before those more than ten thousand Golden Cleaners awaken."

Because of Xia Fa's current identity—the younger brother of both [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Clown]—the children of the true gods no longer dare to call him by his full name, and mostly refer to him as "Uncle".

[Necessary Fist] glanced sideways at [Teasing Traveler], seemingly questioning why He dared to mention Xiafa. However, since everyone had brought it up, He also crossed His arms and coldly joined in:

"No matter what, even if Xia Fa can break through to the Outer God level soon, he is still only a Divine Being. To put it bluntly, we are all at the Heavenly Venerable level. Don't you think it's too obsequious of you to keep calling him 'Uncle'?"

[Overpressure Collapse] At this point, I couldn't hold back any longer:

"【Necessary Fist】, do you have any shame? What do you mean we're all at the Celestial Venerable level? We're all Celestial Venerables with Celestial Venerable-level combat power, while my uncle is a God with Celestial Venerable-level combat power. How can that be the same?"

[Necessary Fist] originally felt that its statement was a bit stubborn, but [Overpressure Collapse]'s words only made it more difficult to admit it, and it immediately let out a heavy snort:

"Hmph! I only recognize strength. Talking to me about other things is useless. Putting aside everything else, if any of the nine Great Gods were just a subordinate god and encountered an Old One, would the Old One care about their rank or potential? Wouldn't they just kill them without a second thought?"

[Overpressure Collapse] Shaking his head helplessly:

"I really suspect that if those ten thousand-plus gold cleaners really wipe out all of us extraordinary beings a year from now, your mouth will be left behind too. That's something even harder than sacred metal."

[The Necessary Fist] His eyebrows shot up, and his aura seemed about to explode uncontrollably:

"you--!"

At that very moment, all the children of the righteous gods present, including the [Observer of All Things] standing in the large ritual array in the distance, were shocked and looked over in disbelief.

Incredulity filled everyone's eyes as they stared intently at the [Necessary Fist].

"You...you've improved your strength again? I feel like you're even stronger than the [Knowledge Apostle] and the [Lord of the Transdimensional]?"

The Observer of All Things, possessing Eternal Observation, perceived things most clearly and spoke with great astonishment.

The [teasing traveler] then exclaimed as if suddenly realizing something:

"No wonder you're not convinced by Xia Fa, so you also want to compete for the title of the First Venerable?"

[Overpressure Collapse]'s expression immediately darkened. He never expected that [Necessary Fist]'s strength would advance by leaps and bounds in the past few days.

It should be noted that previously, His progress in merging "credentials and covenants" with [Necessary Fist] was around seventy, making them the strongest among the children of the true gods, as others only had around sixty.

As for veteran celestial beings like the [Apostle of Knowledge] and the [Lord of Superdimensionality], the fusion progress of their credentials and secret contracts is infinitely close to ninety, that is, eighty-seven, eighty-eight, eighty-nine, and so on.

Now, the children of the righteous gods clearly feel that the power of the [Necessary Fist] has probably reached the point where the fusion progress of the credentials and secret contracts is infinitely close to ninety!

To exaggerate a bit, if He were to fuse with one or two more, He could completely break through that bottleneck and then quickly sign ten secret contracts to become a true god!

Although it is extremely difficult, after all, even the most senior Celestial Venerables such as the [Apostle of Knowledge] have not been able to break through this bottleneck for over 30,000 years, and none of the children of the True Gods have ever succeeded in breaking through it.

However, no matter what, the power of the "Necessary Fist" is indeed different now.

Unexpectedly, despite the surprised reactions of the crowd, [Necessary Fist] did not show any sign of smugness. Even though it had suppressed [Overpressure Collapse] in turn, it did not show any pride.

He simply crossed his arms, his expression as cold and resolute as ever:

“This is nothing. I’ve said it before, one day I will become a true god, even if I only have less than a year left.”

[Overpressure Collapse] His lips moved silently, as if he habitually wanted to refute, but he couldn't open his mouth.

In any case, He is now indeed no match for the "Necessary Fist".

Suddenly, the space rippled, and a figure with an extremely chaotic aura was about to emerge from it.

The children of the righteous god all composed themselves and waited for the figure to appear.

Without a doubt, the newcomer... was Xia Fa!

"Oh ho, everyone's been waiting, so I guess I'm late."

As soon as Xia Fa stepped out of the void, he grinned, appearing completely unpretentious.

The children of the righteous god greeted Xia Fa, calling him "Uncle Xia" and "Uncle Xia," but [Necessary Fist] remained with his arms crossed, making no move.

[Overpressure Collapse] At this moment, a smile returned to his face, and he walked over familiarly and put his arm around Xia Fa's shoulder:

"Uncle, you've finally arrived. Perfect timing, the super-large interstellar teleportation array needs to be prepared. Let's go."

The Observer of All Things then made a final confirmation, nodded to everyone, and especially looked at Xia Fa, greeting him with a smile:

"Hello Uncle Xia, we can get ready to set off now."

【Flame Princess】Standed up, her tall figure appearing particularly dashing in the leather jacket, and snapped her fingers crisply.

"Alright, let's go!"

Snapped!

As the snap of the fingers ended, all the children of the righteous god, including Xia Fa, were "teleported" into the large ritual array.

A dazzling blue light shone brightly, and the ritual array was immediately activated.

……

at the same time.

Deep within the Protoss's oppressive star field, in a place close to the gray mist of time.

A Silver Cleanser sat cross-legged in the Protoss sky, a long, intricately patterned golden sword resting on his lap.

Its aura fluctuated wildly. At times, it seemed to be climbing to the level of a true god, and in terms of aura alone, it could be considered extremely powerful among true gods. But at other times, it became extremely chaotic, as if it would fall down at any moment.

Behind it was a silver-armored warhorse, snorting and thrashing its front hooves restlessly. However, strands of golden and silver light were constantly emanating from the warhorse and flowing into the silver cleanser's body.

In the gray mist of time, a pair of eyes slowly opened, their pupils a deep, solemn, dark gold that seemed to have endured countless years, staring at the Silver Cleaner who was sitting cross-legged.

"ruling……"

This was clearly a Golden Cleanser, but his armor was almost a dark gold color. This did not make him look old; on the contrary, it gave him an indescribable power, making him much stronger than the Paradox Joker.

Just then, another golden cleaner emerged from the depths of the Time Mist beside it, placing his hand on his chest with utmost respect.

"Lord Julius, it seems that the Silver Judgment has reached a critical moment. According to the surveillance of [Brief Reality], the presence of the Nine Great Gods has not been detected in the area within billions of light-years around here."

Julius nodded slightly, but his gaze remained fixed on the silver cleaner outside the gray mist of time.

"That's good. Our duty is to protect the Silver Judge. Once it truly ascends to become the Gold Cleanser, then..."

Chapter 456 Facing the Oldest Golden Cleanser? Xia Fa's Battle to Make Him Famous Across the Universe! (Part 2)

"See that? It's right there."

In the realm of gods, ancient tombs, and phantom planets... deep within the vibrant, oil-painting-like starry sky of the Star Spirits, the [Observer of All Things], separated by billions of light-years, pointed the way for Xia Fa and the children of the true gods.

Everyone was either a Celestial Venerable or someone who openly possessed Celestial Venerable strength. Although they were separated by billions of light-years, they could all vaguely see the figure of the Silver Cleanser who was about to break through.

Of course, they couldn't actually see that far using their eyesight or spiritual intuition alone, but now, being within the ritual array constructed by the [Observer of All Things], they could barely see a little thanks to the influence of His [Eternal Observation] authority.

"I didn't sense any powerful beings nearby. What about you?"

When the "Teasing Traveler" spoke, he was no longer the peacemaker with a smile on his face. Instead, he appeared extremely serious, like a general before a battle.

Besides the "eternal face," He also possesses the "eternal journey," which is the origin of His name.
