I'm not just human!

"Wait, look, that's..."

Suddenly, the Lord of Nature pointed in a certain direction, and the gods looked in that direction and were all startled.

There it was, Xia Fa's place.

Behind Xia Fa, a figure engulfed in jet-black flames, with nine tentacles on its back wielding nine swords, slowly emerged.

The moment the figure appeared, it had already reached a height of 100,000 zhang, towering to the heavens and the earth. Moreover, it was constantly growing taller and larger, giving people the feeling that it was about to break through the starry sky.

"This……"

The nine righteous gods were immediately stunned. In fact, three of the righteous gods had experienced the phenomenon of such an extremely tall figure appearing in the latter half of the ascension ceremony.

The first is naturally [Absolute Defense]. His manifestation is a towering figure holding a giant shield. Although it only appears in the Protoss natural star field, everyone in the entire universe could see it just by looking up.

The second is [Temporary Reality]. His vision is a figure painting, but it is only a few hundred feet tall. Although it is tall enough, it is naturally far inferior to [Absolute Defense].

The third is the "First History," whose vision is of an old man reading a book, only about a hundred feet tall.

Although no other righteous gods exhibited this phenomenon, people deduced some patterns from it. It seemed that whenever this phenomenon appeared during a godhood ritual, it represented the corresponding righteous god's strength.

Therefore, [Absolute Defense] is ten thousand feet long, while [Brief Reality] is only a few hundred feet long, and [First History] is only one hundred feet long.

Now, the phantom that appeared during Xia Fa's godhood ceremony was an astonishing 100,000 zhang tall right from the start.

Moreover, in the blink of an eye, it has already broken through to a million feet and is still growing, at a much faster speed than before.

"Three million zhang, five million zhang, ten million zhang, fifty million zhang, one hundred million zhang, three hundred million zhang... Heavens, heavens!"

Although the [Nature Monarch] is only at the fifth level of the true gods, perhaps that is why He values ​​strength the most.

Seeing the extraordinary phenomenon of Xia Fa's ascension ceremony instantly soar to hundreds of millions of feet, far exceeding the ten-thousand-foot figure of [Absolute Defense] back then, He was so shocked that He was speechless.

How much stronger is this than [Absolute Defense]?

Without a doubt, His catchphrase will change from "Lord" to "Absolute Attack," just as "Absolute Defense" was used before.

The other gods were also deeply shocked, staring blankly at the figure that was still growing larger.

In the blink of an eye, the figure had already reached hundreds of billions of feet in length and was approaching trillions of feet, with its speed increasing even further.

All living beings in the universe witnessed this unimaginably enormous figure and were all utterly astonished.

"It's Lord [Absolute Attack]!"

"Lord, is this the ascension ritual of Lord [Absolute Attack]? He's so powerful, yet he's still not a true god?"

"A ritual to become a god? What does that mean?"

"You children don't understand. I am an Outer God who has lived for more than 30,000 years. I personally witnessed the ascension ceremonies of eight of the nine True Gods. The most powerful one was Lord [Absolute Defense], whose figure was ten thousand feet tall. At that time, everyone said that this was the concrete manifestation of the strength after becoming a True God."

"That [Absolute Attack] Lord's figure has already reached trillions of feet...!"

"Unthinkable, utterly unthinkable! Praise be to Lord [Absolute Attack]!"

"[Absolute Attack] Master, from now on I will be your most devout follower!"

"Haha, me too!"

"Praise be to Lord [Absolute Attack]!"

The nine righteous gods could naturally hear the discussion among the extraordinary beings, but in terms of sheer awe, they far surpassed any other being in the entire universe.

After all, only by reaching the level of a true god can one realize how difficult it is to improve one's strength, and only then can one understand just how incredible Xia Fa's current figure, which has grown to trillions of feet, truly is.

This means that Xia Fa's strength has reached a level beyond everyone's imagination, so powerful that it is incomparable. Even [Absolute Defense] cannot fathom just how strong Xia Fa is.

Even after growing to trillions of feet, the figure, engulfed in jet-black flames and with nine tentacles wrapped around nine swords, was still growing exponentially...

……

"Ho-!"

Xia Fa suddenly took a deep breath, like someone who had been holding their breath and was suffocating from underwater, and his mind immediately cleared up.

Looking around, he realized he had returned to the Promised Land where he had seen the shell of [Absolute Defense] many times before.

The difference this time is that books, newspapers, and even television sets displaying images are floating everywhere in this promised land.

Whether it's books, newspapers, or television sets, their quantity is countless, truly endless, beyond the reach of even trillions upon trillions of grains of sand in the Ganges.

But as his gaze shifted, he was suddenly startled.

Amidst the countless books, newspapers, and television sets, there was actually a person.

A tall young man with black hair and black eyes, wearing a white linen shirt, light brown work pants and black leather work shoes.

The young man was incredibly handsome, the kind of handsome that exuded a strong masculine aura, like a hero from ancient Greece or Rome, extremely masculine, even the angles of his face looked like they were carved by a knife.

But a warm smile played on his lips, a smile that softened his sharp edges and gave him a unique and fatal attraction.

Xia Fa had never seen such a handsome person before, and luckily, that person was himself.

Yes, this young man looks exactly like me; he is completely me.

But if that person is myself, then who am I?

"You are……?"

“I am you, and you are me.” The young man smiled.

"What do you mean?" Xia Fa asked, somewhat puzzled.

"To be precise, I am a part of your spirit, currently undergoing the final fusion with the [Primordial Secrets]. Once the fusion is complete, I will return to your body, and then we will be inseparable, because I was originally you," the young man patiently explained.

"I see..." Xia Fa felt relieved and then asked, "So where are we now?"

"The Promised Land in the Gray Fog of Time [The Gathering Place of Geniuses], which is also where my elder brother's [Absolute Defense] body used to reside," the young man replied with a smile.

Seeing that it was indeed here, Xia Fa felt even more relieved, because he could leave whenever he wanted.

But soon, a difficult problem emerged.

Currently, a portion of my spirit has actively separated to merge with the [Ancient Secrets], which means that I have not yet truly grasped the authority of "omniscience".

Xia Fa suspected that this was the effect of signing the [Primordial Secrets], just like how the body would turn into bubbles of various sizes when signing the [Mysterious Singularity], and the body would turn into stars and planets when signing the [Gate of Stars].

The problem is, he really wants to know the mystery that has been bothering him for more than a month and a half, and he can't wait any longer.

This integration looks like it will take at least a few more days.

The books, newspapers, and television sets were merging into the "self" on the other side, at a rather slow pace.

"Aren't you curious about what happened 30,000 years ago? And what is your origin... or rather... what is our origin?"

Just then, the young man spoke with a smile, his expression quite amiable.

Xia Fa thought to himself that it was indeed a part of his spirit, completely identical to his own thoughts and ideas.

"Yes."

The young man laughed:

"Ask away, I can tell you."

Xia Fa smiled as well:

"Isn't there a more efficient way? Like using spiritual intuition to transmit thoughts or something."

The young man smiled and replied:

"also."

Xia Fa then nodded, adopting an extremely solemn tone:

"Then tell me first, what exactly happened 30,000 years ago?"

Chapter 519 The Dark, Burning Day (Part 3)

The young man snapped his fingers:

"It's very simple, but you'll have to see for yourself to know the specifics."

See for yourself...

have a look……

Look……

The young man's voice suddenly seemed extremely ethereal and distant, but Xia Fa felt a violent jolt in his head, and images were indeed stuffed into his mind through spiritual intuition.

"Magic scrolls! Selling magic scrolls! 100 gold coins each, guaranteed to summon Fireball and Wind Blade! No refunds if you can't!"

That was Kaligi, the most bustling worm city. Vendors pushed carts laden with the lowest quality magic scrolls, and people would occasionally stop to ask the price. On the busy streets, many more people were enjoying meals in restaurants, laughing and chatting, or strolling around with ice cream in their hands.

[Many clerks were also diligently writing something in the stone houses lining both sides of the street.]

"Run! Run! I'll hold them off! Remember, avenge me!"

[That's the planet Panridas. A group of adventurers are working together to fight a mutated dragon, but the dragon is too powerful. Several members of the adventurers have been killed or wounded. The captain crushed a scroll, bursting out a high-pitched chant. Then, barbs rapidly grew all over his body, turning him almost into a hedgehog. He chose to block the dragon and told his team to run.]

"He's nothing but an outer god. If we kill him, we can escape far away and consume the mutated essence within him. Maybe then we can get closer to becoming a Celestial Venerable. The Sun God King can't care about us outer gods anymore..."

On an unnamed planet, two mutated Outer Gods created a mirrored space, conversing privately within and responding to the mages' prayers for their power.

[This is indeed 30,000 years ago. The era of mutation has long since ended, and all the power of mutation has been gathered in the bodies of hundreds or thousands of mutated gods. The era of magicians is prosperous and thriving, but it is far less widespread than the era of the extraordinary.]

At that time, there was only the real world; the Protoss Realm didn't even exist.

Suddenly, the universe seemed to freeze for a moment. Whether it was those selling magic scrolls, those fighting monsters, or even the gods plotting to kill other mutated deities, they all seemed to freeze instantly.

The next moment, in the Worm City, a tall and imposing figure, surrounded by holy light, burst out, instantly breaking through the atmosphere of Planet Kaligi and stopping in the starry sky, looking up in surprise and uncertainty.

[His gaze seemed to pierce through the entire starry sky of the real world, but then, as if he saw something, his expression instantly revealed extreme fear and disbelief, as if he had seen something far beyond common sense and imagination.]

[This figure was none other than the Sun God King. However, even with his divine status and strength to fight three thousand men single-handedly, the Sun God King was so terrified that his entire body trembled uncontrollably.]

[Immediately afterwards, from Ared Star, the Moon Mother Goddess also rushed out, her tall and graceful figure flashing instantly to the side of the Sun God King.]

Although the two knew each other well, they deliberately kept their distance, even in this critical moment of life and death.

"What should we do? Did you...did you see that?"

[The Moon Goddess asks a question, looking at the Sun God King.]

The Sun God King shook his head:
