I'm not just human!

On the contrary, [Silver Universe] floated in the air, her fair legs and smooth feet swaying, seemingly unconcerned, perhaps because [Eternal Space] gave her confidence.

This scene gave Xia Fa the feeling that a pride of lions had finally waited for the lion king to emerge from the mountains. Although everyone was a member of the pride, the lion king's majesty was still so solemn, dignified and inviolable.

The next moment, an extremely burly figure walked out of the door.

He was still wearing that shimmering golden robe, stretched taut by his muscles as if it were about to burst at any moment. Every part of his body exuded an extremely powerful aura, an aura that even the gods would feel extremely dangerous about.

As the figure stepped out, the space around him began to tremble slightly, as if it were about to crack, as if the world itself could not withstand such a powerful individual.

Suddenly, a strange fluctuation emanated, and the space suddenly stabilized.

Xia Fa noticed that it seemed to be the authority of [Eternal Defense]. The moment his elder brother [Absolute Defense] emerged from the mountain, he directly raised the defense of the surrounding space to the highest level, which was the only way for the world to withstand his existence.

Immediately afterwards, [Absolute Defense] finally turned around and looked at the group of righteous gods and Xia Fa.

Unlike the previous times I've seen [Absolute Defense], this time He lowered His hood, revealing a thick head of unruly black hair and an extremely resolute, rock-sculpted face.

Compared to His incarnation "Levimir", [Absolute Defense] himself is certainly not that young. He looks like a middle-aged man with slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. His eyes are deep and majestic, with dark pupils that convey wisdom and calmness that can see through everything in the world.

[Nature Monarch] took a few steps forward, then knelt down on one knee, shouting:

"[Absolute Defense] Master, you've finally emerged from seclusion! I've been waiting for so long! Congratulations on successfully returning to your peak condition!"

Looking at his most loyal henchman, [Absolute Defense] smiled slightly:

"Hmm, it seems they rescued you too, Rotkam."

As He spoke, He personally bent down and helped up the [Nature Monarch], whose leaves were trembling with excitement.

[Nature Monarch] was utterly flattered, seemingly never expecting this to happen.

Not only Him, but the other gods also looked surprised.

It's important to know that during the first two millennia of the extraordinary era, [Absolute Defense] was always extremely serious, a complete synonym for being unsmiling.

Other true gods are treated similarly to subordinate gods in His presence, not in the sense of being subordinate gods in terms of their divine status, but rather as subordinate gods who follow the true gods around like servants.

Only Paradox Joker, being Absolute Defense's younger brother, can occasionally get close to Absolute Defense.

But now, [Absolute Defense] is treating [Nature Monarch] with such courtesy, even personally helping Him up with both hands?

You know, in the past, in this kind of situation, [Absolute Defense] would at most just cross its arms, give a cold "hmm," and then ignore it!

The righteous gods looked at each other, then without hesitation, stepped forward to greet the [Absolute Defense] that had emerged from the mountain.

"Boss, you've finally recovered! I've been waiting for this day for so long!"

"That's great. With [Absolute Defense], plus Xia Fa and the Moon Mother Goddess, I think we'll have a lot of room to maneuver in two months."

"It doesn't necessarily have to be two months. If the boss takes direct action now and wipes out Julius and the other Golden Cleaners and even the false gods, wouldn't that mean another year?"

"That's right! Once all the righteous gods on the Cleaners' side are wiped out, we won't need any righteous gods to take action on our side, and we won't have to worry about the aura of the righteous gods alerting the more than ten thousand golden Cleaners in the Golden Sleeping Land!"

"Big brother, I understand that you'll become stronger this time, but why do I feel like you've become much stronger?"

Some of the gods refer to [Absolute Defense] as their leader, such as [Nature Monarch] and [Temporary Reality], while others call it by its honorific name, such as [Silver Universe] and [Supreme Law].

Only the Paradox Joker calls him "Big Brother," though he usually refers to him as "Absolute Defense."

At this moment, facing the question from [Paradox Joker], [Absolute Defense] showed a rather sentimental expression:

"After destruction comes construction. I feel like I can now take on over a thousand Gold Cleaners."

"What?!" [Destiny Actor] was the first to be speechless, completely unexpected that [Absolute Defense] could be increased so much at once.

"Boss, you...you're not kidding, are you?" [Nature Monarch]'s voice trembled, but not from fear, but from excitement.

For over ten thousand years, trapped in that Promised Land and tormented day and night, He hated the Golden Cleansers and the false gods to the extreme, wishing He could tear them to pieces and scatter their bones to ashes.

Now that He sees the Absolute Defense has become so strong, and He really has a chance to realize this wish, how could He not be excited?

"No wonder, I was wondering why you gave me such a completely different feeling, brother..."

The Paradox Joker sighed, his expression a mix of envy and admiration.

The gods also realized that after Julius led more than 600 Golden Cleansers to forcibly shatter the body and power of [Absolute Defense] more than 10,000 years ago, in the past 10,000 years, not only has His temperament been tempered, and He is no longer so arrogant and disdainful of the world, but His strength has also greatly increased.

[The actor from Destiny] remarked with emotion:

"【The Limit of Eternity】...I actually had a chance to obtain it back then, but after weighing the options, I chose 【Eternal Fate】. Although I don't regret it now, it would be a lie to say I don't envy you, 【Absolute Defense】."

The ultimate limit?

Xia Fa's heart skipped a beat. Could this be his elder brother's second eternal certificate?

The Paradox Joker also laughed:

"Speaking of which, you've actually turned misfortune into blessing, brother. In the first two millennia of our extraordinary era, there was hardly anyone who could trigger the effect of your [Eternal Limit]. If I had to name one, it would only be Julius, who led a few hundred Golden Cleaners."

[Absolute Defense] He smiled faintly, his tone filled with even deeper感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and reflection).

"Yes."

As Xia Fa listened to their conversation, he already had a vague idea in his mind.

First of all, the "Eternal Limit" must be one of the strongest ninety-nine kinds of eternal certificates, otherwise the "Fate Actor" would not have compared it with the "Eternal Fate" and even struggled with the comparison.

As for the effects of [Eternal Limit], Xia Fa suspected that one of them was that it could easily raise the power of the user to the limit, which was one of the sources of his elder brother's strength. But the other effect was what was truly enviable.

That is, once the owner is pushed to the limit between life and death and successfully recovers, their strength will be greatly enhanced!

Xia Fa even suspected that before his elder brother [Absolute Defense] became a true god, the reason he risked entering the depths of the Star Spirit Starry Sky and provoked so many Golden Cleansers was probably because he deliberately wanted to take advantage of the effect of [Eternal Limit].

He was pushed to the brink of death time and time again, and escaped death time and time again, regaining his strength... After countless times of increasing his strength, he became a true god in one fell swoop. No wonder he was able to directly kill the Great Old Ones and rule the universe.

As he was thinking, [Absolute Defense] turned to look at Xia Fa, its expression immediately becoming serious:

"Third brother, I haven't properly thanked you yet. If it weren't for you finding my body... wait, you!"

Before he could finish speaking, [Absolute Defense] trembled violently, his eyes widening in shock.

The other gods were seeing Absolute Defense lose its composure for the first time, and they were all confused about what had happened, but dared not ask.

[Absolute Defense] was suddenly startled, but then its spiritual intuition swept over Xia Fa like a tidal wave.

He seemed to have no other concern, so when his spiritual intuition surged forth, he forgot to control it. The other gods immediately felt a tightness in their chests, followed by the feeling as if an extremely heavy mountain was pressing down on them.

This applies to characters including the Paradox Joker.

The gods exchanged glances, each seeing extreme horror and awe in the other's eyes.

Without a doubt, the current "absolute defense" could kill them with just spiritual intuition!

He... has become so powerful that it is beyond the imagination of the true gods!

"what!!!!!"

Suddenly, a scream rang out. Under the incredulous gazes of the gods, [Absolute Defense] howled and took a step back, clutching its head.

Xia Fa was also stunned, but without thinking much, he stepped forward and pressed his hand on the back of his own brother's head.

A strange current surged in, and [Absolute Defense] trembled all over, immediately stopping its movements. After a long while, it finally exhaled a long breath.

He raised his head, and in his gaze toward Shaphat was the same horror and awe that the true gods showed when they looked at Him.

"Third brother...you..."

Xia Fa immediately understood that his elder brother had seen through his strength, but he didn't know exactly how much he could see.

After all, apart from the eldest brother, none of the other righteous gods could even see it, not even the Moon Mother Goddess.

The gods only knew that he was strong now, but they didn't know exactly how strong he was. They thought he was at most similar to his previous [Absolute Defense].

However, [Absolute Defense], being an existence capable of fighting against thousands single-handedly at the level of a true god, was naturally different and immediately noticed that something was wrong with him.

However, they underestimated him, which triggered an effect similar to "not being able to look directly at God," and their spiritual intuition was burned.

"I truly never expected it, I truly never expected it, Third Brother, that there could be such a powerful being as you in this world!"

[Absolute Defense] exclaimed sincerely, as if deeply shocked. The gods immediately surrounded him, all with curious expressions.

"Boss, what do you mean? Is Xia Fa stronger than you now?" [Nature Monarch] asked in surprise.

[Absolute Defense] A soft sigh:

"More than that! My third brother now gives me the feeling that he could easily kill me."

this……!

The gods were all shocked and looked at Xia Fa in disbelief.

For them, the absolute defense was already unimaginably powerful. A true god could fight against a thousand, and their spiritual intuition alone could kill them.

But now, [Absolute Defense] says that Xia Fa can actually kill Him instantly?

"Big brother, you...you're not mistaken, are you?" Paradox Joker's voice trembled, as if he had heard something extremely unbelievable, but within this trembling was immense excitement and anticipation.

"I couldn't be wrong. Have you forgotten my extraordinary talent?" [Absolute Defense] sighed, but his tone was unusually firm.

"Yes, [Supreme Conquest Stance]..."

[The actor in the story] At this moment, his eyes glazed over, and he murmured something.

Since the true gods all know the legend of the Sun God King, and also know that [Absolute Defense], [Paradox Clown], and that Xiafa is an organ of the Sun God King that has been tainted with extraordinary power.

Therefore, it is naturally very clear that the Sun God King possesses those god-level mutations.

One of them is the [Supreme Conquest Stance], which was originally one of the nine divine-level mutations of the Sun God King. Later, after being tainted by extraordinary power, it became the divine-level extraordinary talent of [Absolute Defense].

In fact, the three divine battle techniques of [Absolute Defense] – “Sighing Barrier”, “Supreme Will”, and “Conquest Stance” – were all developed based on the two divine extraordinary talents, [Absolute Guardian Giant Scale] and [Supreme Conquest Stance].

The effect of [Supreme Conquest Stance] is to give [Absolute Defense] an innate combat instinct!

This combat intuition is not only about becoming more and more ferocious in battle, and being able to quickly analyze the enemy's intelligence and methods and instinctively formulate corresponding tactics, but also about being able to perceive the strength of the opponent with a certain "intuition".

Just now, Xia Fa... triggered his combat instinct of [Absolute Defense]!

In other words, the assessment of Xia Fa's strength based on "Absolute Defense" is absolutely correct!

"Third brother, you..."

After figuring all this out, the Paradox Joker's gaze towards Xia Fa changed, filled with shock and deep awe.

The other gods were now completely in awe of Xia Fa. If he could easily annihilate someone with "Absolute Defense," how many Golden Cleansers could Xia Fa defeat? Three thousand? Or five thousand?

Seeing this, Xia Fa could only smile helplessly:

"I was originally planning to tell everyone, but since my brother figured it out, that's perfect."
