Dragon of Catastrophe-Chapter 444 - 167: Trade with the Goddess

"Help me defeat the other eleven Main Gods."

The statue’s voice remained gentle, yet it revealed a heavy ambition.

"Defeat the other eleven Main Gods? The cost is too great! Goodbye!"

Land frowned, turned, and prepared to leave immediately.

"Wait! Are you giving up just like that? You don’t even want the method to become a god? Or do you already have it?"

The statue swiftly thrust itself forward, reappearing in front of Land.

"I don’t want to meddle in the wars of you gods."

Land spoke frankly.

The specific strength of these Main Gods was unknown to him, but he couldn’t imagine they’d be weaker than those Divine Beings on the Ayo Plane, right?

Given Land’s current strength, battling with those possessing weak divine power, the outcome was uncertain.

Why get involved in the battles among the gods?

"Are you afraid that the gods are too powerful? I just used divine power to observe your battle with the War God’s followers.

Your power, while far from matching that of the Great Jaya.

But it’s not weak either.

As of now, we Twelve Main Gods once swore to the Earth Mother Goddess and the Father Sky God not to descend into the human realm in person. With your power, you are very likely to help me unite the land."

The Goddess seemed to have discerned Land’s reluctance and continued speaking.

"Then... what about the subordinate gods? You Main Gods should have subordinate gods under your command, right? What about them?"

Land seemed to show a bit of interest.

"They... can."

"Never mind then!" Land shook his head again, but this time he didn’t express a desire to leave immediately. Instead, he came up with another idea.

"However, I think you should consider another request. How about, for example, a method to reach the Other Plane?"

"..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The Goddess statue was momentarily stunned, then immediately responded:

"Of course, that’s also possible."

"The secret skill to travel to the Otherworld should be quite important to you, right? After all, with it, you could experience the splendor of other worlds and learn advanced technologies from them," Land said.

"So, what do you want?"

"A higher price! Just one secret skill to become a god through faith is not enough to exchange for my secret skill."

Land raised his forelimb, gently gesturing with his claw.

"..."

The Goddess was silent again, seemingly calculating gains and losses in her mind. After a long while, she spoke:

"So, what else do you want?"

"The treasures of your world, you must have plenty, right? Bring some out, let me see."

"Sure."

The Goddess finished speaking.

A divine radiance burst forth from the statue.

A massive wormhole appeared, like rain.

Shaking down batch after batch of items.

Land saw many items imbued with divine power.

These were treasures accompanied by World Fragments.

Among them were several golden apples, a massive sword over twenty meters long made of gold, a house-sized solidified blood crystal, a hundred-meter-long spine as jade-like as a whole, an azure sea conch, and more.

Altogether, there were unexpectedly more than a dozen treasures possessing World Fragments.

Land casually grabbed the hundred-meter-long spine.

The Goddess on one side said, "This is the spine of a giant snake that once had Titan Divine Blood. This part of the spine is different; after the giant snake died, it absorbed most of its essence and was collected by me.

It can be used to create... Wait! What are you doing?"

The Goddess was initially introducing it well, but was stunned to see Land biting directly into the spine!

Crack! Squeak, squeak~

A series of unpleasant friction sounds rang out.

In the end.

This spine was directly bitten through!

Part of it entered Land’s mouth, while the other part instantly lost its color, turning into powder and disappearing.

"Gulp~"

"You! You actually ate it? Ate my treasure? What on earth are you doing?"

The voice of the Goddess statue was somewhat distorted.

But at this moment, Land’s attention was not on her at all.

He was completely absorbed by the system prompt.

"You have devoured an item containing a World Fragment, absorbed its power, and gained 1 Potential."

Yo! Just one piece of treasure actually added 1 Potential? Not bad! Not bad! If I eat all this in front of me, it should add quite a bit more, right?

Land felt a surge of joy in his heart.

This increase in potential was much more potent than what the Life Soul World provided!

The world consciousness of that world only ever granted him 10 Potential.

What does that say? It says that the entire world had about that much in total!

It was even less than the blessing from the Abyss!

How utterly trashy is that?

But the world in front of him is different!

The strength of this world is clearly above that of the Life Soul World, comparable to the Ayo Plane, although who’s stronger is unknown to him.

However, Land leans towards the Ayo World being stronger, but surely not by much.

The gap between the two planes isn’t that significant.

Only this way, Land would easily obtain an item from the hands of the Goddess in front of him and gain one potential!

This attested to its potential and strength.

He started becoming more interested in this world.

His crimson eyes gazed with extreme eagerness at the dozen remaining treasures, instinctively reaching out with greed-filled claws once more.

He still wanted to continue eating!

But the treasures before him seemed to be caught by an invisible large hand, immediately flying back to the space of the wormhole.

"True Dragon of the Otherworld! What exactly do you intend to do?"

A somewhat annoyed voice pulled Land back from his recent fantasies to reality.

He looked with surprise at the Goddess statue to the side, who seemed visibly angry.

"I... I just wanted to taste your treasures."
