GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1696: No Underestimation.



The advantage of numbers is clearly on the side of world gods, but the advantage of power is not. World gods can avoid the world enders for now, but soon, the world enders will become too many to avoid. After all, world enders never die, while world gods run out of realm hearts to build worlds.

Then there is Aeternus who has a power similar to those of world enders. From the

information he has, he knows that Aeternus is not as dangerous as the first sage will have everyone to believe. He knows that Aeternus can't control that power yet.

But he also knows that Aeternus can become dangerous if he is pushed to the limit enough. He might just lose his sanity and succumb to the corrosion down below. So while Aeternus is currently of moderate danger, he has the potential to quickly become a terrifying danger.

These thoughts made Ghastorix consider something he didn't think he would. He thought to himself, "Maybe there is not just one world ender that I have to worry about. Maybe there are two."

All of these went through Ghastorix's mind as he watched the abyss. He made up his mind then not to underestimate Legion. At the very least, he has to freeze them at the first opportunity he gets or destroy them quickly.

The death of this small realm is something that is happening many times in the void universe. The rate at which they happen only increases over time. It doesn't decrease at all. If anything, large realms that should have the protection of the void universe against world gods also meet their demise.

The death of large words rarely happens, though. They need the existence of a realm lord for this to happen. Either for the era of conquest or for the assistance of a realm in taking down another realm, This requirement is very difficult to meet. But once it is met, large realms meet their ends en masse.

In the case of the high heaven realm, it has produced approximately 1 trillion Origin gods in its history. About half of those participated in the era of conquest, and 0.1% of them succeeded in gaining the assistance of the realm. That means 500 million Origin gods are owed the assistance of the realm.

If each of them manages to subdue a realm tree, then 500 million large realm trees will die. It is unlikely that all of them will succeed, though. But it is a possibility that has to be considered now that Monarch High Heaven has called for everyone he owes a favor to show up.

That's just the present consequences of the success of one era of conquest. One can imagine just how much havoc those 500 million Origin gods will wreck on the void universe if half of them manage to subdue a realm tree and become world gods. Even if the void universe is nearly infinite, its limit will be reached very quickly if this happens many times.

Origin gods are insignificant when compared to the void universe. But 500 million of them makes them significant. They are many enough to form an ocean of bodies in the void. It is an impressive sight that is rarely seen in the void universe.

Even though there are a large number of people, they are not making any noise. There is only the roar of void energy around them. It is not that the immortals are mute, but they communicate with their minds, so they don't produce any sound.

Even if they needed to communicate with sounds, they would have all become silent when Monarch High Heaven arrived. It is something that they have to do.

Monarch High Heaven soon arrived in all his captivating glory and power. He was a giant star in a humanoid form. His skin as well as his flesh were all white and blinding to look at. He was adorned in a golden battle armor that serves more to give his existence shape and boundary than to protect him.

Every Origin god had stopped communicating, even with their minds. They were all staring at him in silence. Even though they were 500 million in number, they didn't have the confidence to take on this entity. It is as laughable as 5 million ants taking on a towering volcano.

He looked vastly different from his usual elven form. But they can feel that he is the one contracted to help them suppress a realm tree.

It is not that they considered that he could be someone else or care if he were someone else. All is well as long as he fulfills the promise he made to them for them to participate in the era of conquest. That's all that matters to them currently.

Monarch High Heaven was also regarding them. He made his disdain for them clear with a snort.

He said to them, "I don't have time to waste. I have a project to prepare for. You might have heard of it. You might even be lucky enough to have gained some slots through world gods to participate in it. If not, then you are out of luck. This might be your last chance to amount to anything so you better not waste it and my time."

"We will begin a campaign of destruction in a moment. We will attack every realm tree around us. I will suppress the realm trees while you destroy them. You will be called up in order of your contribution points and you will have one Origin cycle to take down the realm."

"I don't care of you are prepared right now and I will not care if you can't defeat your assigned realm tree in one Origin cycle. All I care about is that I have fulfilled my end of the bargain."

"Let us begin."

Many Origin gods wanted to complain. They were supposed to be given an Origin cycle to prepare. In that time, they were supposed to prepare their armies and forces. They were not supposed to be called into action to subdue a realm at the drop of a hat.
