I'm not just human!

In particular, now that Xia Fa is a beacon of hope, a hope of being able to fight against those more than ten thousand Golden Cleansers, we no longer have to be so lifeless and desperately waiting for the great cleansing brought by the Golden Cleansers a year from now.

In this situation, more gods from beyond the gods and even celestial beings are needed to better block those silver and bronze cleaners a year from now!

If more than 10,000 Gold Cleaners will awaken, the number of Silver and Bronze Cleaners born will definitely reach an extremely terrifying number.

At this point, the more mid-to-low-level combat power there is, the better it can be utilized!

Xia Fa instantly understood his second brother's [Paradox Clown] idea, and immediately smiled and said:

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you, Second Brother."

As he spoke, he ripped the dark gold axe from the dark gold armor arm, then tossed the arm to the Paradox Joker.

[Paradox Joker] snapped his fingers, and the arm vanished into thin air. Then, he smiled and nodded at Xia Fa, preparing to turn and leave with the other two gods.

The children of the righteous gods also waved goodbye to Xiafa, clearly not wanting to find out what Xiafa was going to do with Julius's dark gold axe, just like the three righteous gods.

Xia Fa smiled as he watched everyone leave, leaving the hall empty. However, he didn't linger. With a thought, he teleported back to his "Manor and Garden," the abode of the gods.

That's right, this is the name of the abode of the gods. Each abode of the gods actually has a unique name, which is said to have been chosen for the convenience of bidding.

"Next..."

Sitting cross-legged on the garden floor, with the dark gold axe placed horizontally between his knees, Xia Fa's eyes were slightly narrowed, but his expression was full of great anticipation.

The reason he risked so much to seize Julius's weapon was for this very moment!

Chapter 460 Disassembling the oldest weapon of the Gold Cleaner yields an unimaginable harvest!

With his hands caressing the ancient and intricate patterns on the dark gold axe, Xia Fa closed his eyes, his senses fully open, as if he were carefully sensing something.

The soul imprint that Julius planted in the Dark Gold Great Axe was cleaned up the moment he took it; otherwise, Xiafa would not have been able to bring it back to the City of Gold Pounds.

But he still sensed it with utmost care, tracing the rough and ancient texture inch by inch with his fingers, as devout as a believer.

"found it……"

Suddenly, Xia Fa opened his eyes wide, his dark pupils flashing with a sharp light. He pointed his fingers like a knife and struck a spot on the long handle of the dark gold axe.

The moment his finger struck down, it was instantly covered with a strange flame interwoven with black and gold, as if he had directly activated the critical five-time loss of control!

Even his fingers themselves transformed into a dark, heavy material, borrowing the hardness of the Rhine Dawn armor.

when!

A metallic clanging sound echoed through the garden, and layers of golden film appeared in the air, instantly absorbing the shockwave.

Yes, the complete ritual array of the City of Gold Pounds not only permeates every corner of it, but also extends to the abode of the gods.

It was precisely because the Ritual and Imperial Array absorbed the shockwave that the garden and the distant manor were able to be shattered in an instant.

Xia Fa's gaze sharpened as he looked at the almost unchanged dark gold handle, but he was not surprised at all, and struck down with his fingers again.

when!

Once, twice, three times... He struck the dark gold handle faster and faster, the clear sound like waves rippling outwards from him, even breaking through dozens of layers of the golden membrane of the Ritual Array.

Finally, after typing it tens of thousands of times in just a few minutes,

when--!

Click!

The dark gold handle broke in the middle, and the layers of ritual arrays inside were completely destroyed, revealing a section of colorful metal core.

The metal core was as dazzling as a rainbow, but the overall color was pale and white, and it was wrapped in a dark gold ring, just like the copper wires and rubber of an electric cable.

"finally……"

Xia Fa shook his slightly sore fingers and couldn't help but let out a long breath.

The reason he risked everything, even exposing intelligence and using his newly acquired god-level mutation ability, to steal Julius's weapon was for this!

He had sensed the extraordinary nature of the weapon the moment Julius's dark gold axe pierced his chest.

The reason is simple: at that moment, the "mystical living silver" in his blood vessels, the starlight that was everywhere in his muscles and bones, and the "miracle faith" that was swirling in his mind, all of which were related to the overlord-level secret contract, became active!

Moreover, it's as active as boiling water!

This only means one thing—

"That old Julius has lived for over 30,000 years, and he must have collected an unknown amount of sacred metals to forge this weapon..."

Xia Fa murmured, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.

Right now, I'm desperately short of sacred metals for the mechanical body-forging technique, to the point that I'm even considering melting down ancient treasures to obtain them.

Now, Julius's dark gold axe contains a huge amount of sacred metal, how could he not be happy?

Without hesitation, Xia Fa once again joined his fingers together, covered by flames interwoven with black and gold, and began to strike along the dark gold handle that had been broken in two.

With each strike, the dark gold outer layer covering the glittering, colorful metal core peeled off, and soon the entire long handle was stripped away.

"Huh? These ritual formations..."

Previously, Xia Fa had always believed that ritual arrays were a unique product of the extraordinary era.

But after his previous experience of time travel, he discovered that rituals and magic arrays already existed in the era of mutation.

However, the ritual arrays of the mutation era are arranged by the mutated people based on the "mutated meridian divine diagrams" generated by the mutations in their own bodies. They are almost completely different from the ritual arrays of the extraordinary era. They can be said to be two different things that share the same name.

But because of this, it is very easy to identify.

"The weapons of the Golden Cleaners... actually contain hundreds of millions of ritual arrays created by mutated humans to enhance their functionality and power?"

The moment Xia Fa realized this, he was suddenly stunned and felt a chill run down his spine for no reason.

The mutants... didn't they fight and kill each other because they were vying to absorb each other's mutant essence, leaving only about a hundred of them, and all of them became powerful enough to become ancient gods?

Even these hundred-plus ancient gods almost all died in the "great event" that affected the entire universe 30,000 years ago.

Even the Sun God King perished because of this, how could the other ancient gods withstand it?

Only the Moon Goddess barely survived, and eventually disappeared, losing even her power.

"In other words, the Golden Cleaners are unlikely to be mutants. There are only a little over a hundred ancient gods, but there are tens of thousands of Golden Cleaners..."

"But why is Julius so skilled at using the rituals and transformation arrays of the mutants? And why has he mastered hundreds of millions of them?"

Xia Fa frowned in thought, his gaze involuntarily sweeping over the ritual arrays that had been damaged in the process of his strikes.

Soon, his pupils contracted as he found a very familiar mutated meridian diagram.

"There are pure white, blazing holy suns, lions of turmoil and strife, even blades of countless threads... wait, there are even unshakeable realms and endless opportunities for creation?"

"But if that's the case, why was Julius ambushed by my combination attack of the Eye of Annihilation and the Blade of a Thousand Threads? It should have known exactly how to counter it..."

Xia Fa couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The mutated ritual array that Julius had engraved in his dark gold axe contained not only the mutated meridian diagram corresponding to the god-level mutation of the Sun God King, but also the Moon Mother Goddess, and even other ancient gods.

Of course, most of them are holy-level ritual variant arrays formed by combining thousands or tens of thousands of different mutated meridian diagrams, which is why there are hundreds of millions of them.

But if that's the case, why does Julius act as if he knows nothing about his god-level mutation ability?

He is different now than before. He is no longer the insignificant superhuman in Rum City. Not only has his vision improved by a great deal, but his strength is also among the top in the entire universe.

Therefore, Xia Fa quickly came to a conclusion, a conclusion that seemed very strange.

"The only possibility is... that Julius was born with mastery of these hundreds of millions of ritual variations and arrays, and that he instinctively imprinted them into his weapon..."

"It might not even know that this is a ritual formation from the era of mutation, and may even think that it is a means to increase the power and function of weapons."

"That's why it not only couldn't recognize my god-level mutation ability, but also couldn't find a way to deal with it for a while..."

But the more Xia Fa came to this conclusion, the stranger it seemed. He even had a terrifying feeling that if he continued to investigate, he would touch upon the most taboo secret in the universe.

This feeling was not an illusion, but a real warning brought by spiritual intuition, just like the feeling he had when he tried to use the power of the esoteric text by writing Chinese characters.

Shaking his head sharply, Xia Fa decided not to delve into it for the time being. He figured he would be able to understand it once he signed the [Ancient Secrets Explanation] and became an omniscient being.

While possessing the power of a true god grants the ability to destroy large parts of the universe with ease, that is the universe of the real world, not the true "whole" picture of the universe.

In the universe, there is the Time Mist, the Promised Land, and the Protoss's deepest reaches, which even the Absolute Defense has not explored to its fullest extent. It is said that countless dangers lurk there...

Of course, opportunities also exist.

In this situation, attempting to explore the most forbidden secrets of the universe on one's own might trigger some unpredictable disaster.

Only after becoming stronger, especially after becoming a true god...

He took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it altogether. He clenched his fist in the air, and the flesh in his palm opened up, from which the Rhine Dawn Blade Armor, in the form of a shark-tooth folding knife, flew out.

Immediately, Xia Fa's gaze fell upon the body of the dark gold axe.

At this moment, the dark gold axe already looked very strange. The handle was only a thin one, but it was exceptionally bright and dazzling. The body of the axe was still dark gold, and compared with the handle, it looked quite huge, giving it a strange feeling of being thin-bodied and having a big head.

But this strange feeling will soon disappear... Xia Fa thought to himself, and began to tap with the back of his shark tooth folding knife.

With clanging sounds and countless dark gold fragments flying everywhere, the axe finally shrank considerably, revealing its true form, also forged from that dazzling and splendid metal.

"That Julius is really cunning. He could have just used the weapon itself, but he insisted on putting a layer of Cleaner metal on the outside, disguising it as a weapon similar to other Gold Cleaners..."

Xia Fa couldn't help but shake his head. "Cleanser metal" is a general term for the metal that was melted down from the armor and weapons stripped from the Cleaners.

Moreover, due to its strong adaptability, high performance, and minimal conflict with other extraordinary materials, it has become a hard currency in cities where gold and pounds converge.

The Cleaner Metal is also divided into three levels: Bronze is equivalent to a relatively good Divine-level Extraordinary Material, Silver is equivalent to a relatively good Outer God-level Extraordinary Material, and Gold is far inferior to Sacred Metal, and can only be regarded as a relatively good Celestial-level Extraordinary Material.

Of course, even so, the extraordinary gods did not mind. After all, in the past, it would have been extremely difficult for the gods to find extraordinary materials of the Outer God level to forge their own treasures and armor, and the cost would have been enormous.

Now, countless silver-grade Cleaner metals are circulating in the City of Gold Pounds, and they are of high quality and low price, which is even a blessing for the Outer Gods.

Similarly, rulers and extraordinary monarchs can also use bronze-level cleansers to forge all sorts of secret treasures or mechanical creations, just as conveniently.

Thinking of this, Xia Fa looked at the dark gold fragments scattered on the ground, and immediately gathered them up and put them into a separate black bag.

Once things are settled here, he'll sell these dark gold fragments to shops in the City of Gold Pounds. Of course, he doesn't care about the money; his main goal is to get these dark gold fragments circulating in the supernatural market for the Outer Gods to use.

After calming himself down, Xia Fa picked up the large axe, which had shrunk considerably and whose handle was broken, and prepared to melt it down and separate the different kinds of sacred metals.

The sacred metals required to forge different parts of the body using the "Mechanical Body Forging Method" are also different.

For example, the arms are best crafted from "Pure White Radiant Silver," while the legs are best crafted from "Whispering Stars Secret Titanium."

The brain is made from "the convergence of all miracles," the digestive system from "primordial explosion secret uranium," and the eyeballs from "eternal vortex silicon-aluminum."

And so on, and so forth, there are always the best options.
