The Growth of a God
Chapter 814 - 22: Prototype of a Divine Level Civilization
On the normal timeline, the battlefield between Thebes and the Mountain and Sea Realm.
As the warfare between the two worlds gradually entered a stalemate, numerous gods clashed and fought between space-time rifts.
The most eye-catching among them was undoubtedly the confrontation between Thoth and Yao Xin.
Thoth wielded a crescent moon in one hand and the Bible in the other.
While stirring the rotation of the sun and moon, he repeatedly awakened the corpses of long-dead gods from the abyssal netherworld.
These godly corpses, already mummified and eroded by the netherworld, still crawled out again to fight under Thoth’s command.
"Roar!"
The Nether Dragon coiled in the sky, the God of Giants tearing the earth apart...
Extremely deep ravines spread densely across every corner of the ground like a spider web.
In every direction one could see, the vast number of godly corpses formed an almost infinite army, fully showcasing the immense heritage of the Thebes World.
These godly corpses included not just the gods of Ancient Egypt, but many others from different worlds.
They were either nemeses who perished at Thoth’s hands, or collectibles he purchased at great cost...
No matter how they were buried in this land of the netherworld, they have now returned to their most powerful state from when they were alive.
Except for lacking the immortality of high-dimensional beings, their power was no different from that of real gods.
Fortunately, Thoth’s opponent was none other than Yao Xin, who was also adept at mass tactics.
Swoosh!
Commanding the great river of death formed by the Wangchuan River, Yao Xin proudly stood at the end of countless times and spaces.
The Netherworld Celestial Monarchs and the Netherworld Race that surged from the Wangchuan Long River were all beings who signed the "Immortal Contract" with Yao Xin, the Goddess of Death.
As long as Yao Xin lived, they could be revived from the Wangchuan Long River time and time again.
In terms of immortality, Yao Xin’s clans were even superior to the current gods of Thebes.
Let alone, Yao Xin’s means were not limited to just those immortal Netherworld Celestial Monarchs and the Netherworld Race.
"Return from history!"
"Heroes from the past!"
Yao Xin gently shook the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] in her hand.
One by one, existences carved from the past of the Mountain and Sea Realm surged out from the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] and joined the war.
This was a manifestation of Yao Xin’s authority as Creator, and an ability inherited from the [Bai Ze Map] by the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace].
The [Bai Ze Map] originally possessed the power to turn illusion into reality and transform the fake into truth.
The [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] inherited the entire energy and material of a Supreme Sun on this basis.
The space-time projections summoned under the overlap of the two perfectly presented the power they had in life.
Among them, Da Yi, holding the [Sun-shooting Divine Bow], was the most noteworthy. Every shot from his bow killed a god.
"Haha! Fighting is delightful!"
Clearly, Da Yi was very satisfied with being summoned by Yao Xin this time.
The last time Li Hao summoned Da Yi, he merely used him as a "disposable tool" for shooting the sun, not granting him sufficient power.
In contrast, the present Yao Xin not only gave him enough power,
but also did not heavily interfere with his actions, allowing him to choose the battlefield and opponents himself.
Boom!
Following Da Yi, a series of mythological figures such as Water God Gonggong, Fire God Zhurong, War God Xingtian, and Kuafu, the Sun Chaser, took the stage one after another.
Excluding those Mountain and Sea Gods who were still alive,
all the heroic gods that died in the Mountain and Sea Realm were summoned by Yao Xin.
Their existences were imprinted in the past of the Mountain and Sea Realm, forming part of its historical river.
As long as Li Hao did not object, Yao Xin could continuously pull them out from the river of time to join the war.
...................................................
Under Thoth and Yao Xin, the performance of the Mountain and Sea Gods and the Mountain and Sea Civilization was also impressive.
As mentioned earlier, the Mountain and Sea Gods were not all gods who loved to fight.
On the contrary, due to the Creator Li Hao’s favoritism, the Mountain and Sea Gods could choose fields they were good at and enjoyed developing in most of the time.
With such circumstances, the combat styles of the Mountain and Sea Gods were varied and unrestrained.
Summoning ghost gods to implement mass tactics...
Or eroding and assimilating opponents like phantoms...
Or forging divine weapons to assist and enhance other gods’ combat power...
Or directly modifying certain natural laws like Thoth and Yao Xin...
In comparison, it’s quite rare for them to engage in physical combat and divine technique confrontation like the gods of Thebes.
By relying on being true high-dimensional beings,
the Mountain and Sea Gods do not fear any death, recklessly experimenting with various bizarre battle methods in this war.
No matter how effective the combat tactics were, at the very least, they were enough to give the gods of Thebes headaches.
In contrast, the Mountain and Sea Civilization, which should have been mere "cannon fodder", had their combat methods closer to usual deities.
Mecha warships, unmanned swarms, genetic viruses...
Sky fortresses, absolute barriers, Godslaying armaments...
Curvature acceleration, Divine Power bombs, high-dimensional perspective...
Space-time black holes, high-dimensional expansion, Dimensional Strike...
God-forbidden zones, Divine Abomination deployment, Void devouring...
Traveling through time, reversing cause-effect, paradox interference...
As staggering lethal technologies appeared on the battlefield, the Mountain and Sea Civilization gradually replaced the Mountain and Sea Gods as the main force of this war.
Only at this moment did the gods of Thebes realize,
their opponent this time turned out to be a civilization unafraid of divine majesty and even proud of Godslaying?
It could be said that the existence of the Mountain and Sea Civilization completely overturned the common knowledge of the gods of Thebes.
In a world where there existed a Creator and gods, why would such a unique cultural paradigm and consensus be nurtured?
Where was the dignity of the gods? Where was the majesty of the Creator?
However, no matter how angry and embarrassed the gods of Thebes became, they had no choice but to admit that the Mountain and Sea Civilization was gradually replacing the Mountain and Sea Gods, becoming the true opponents of the divine beings.
As for the original Mountain and Sea Gods?
Besides those main gods truly skilled in combat, other gods could not compare to the endlessly emerging and devastatingly powerful Mountain and Sea People.
The Mountain and Sea Realm is a world where "humans are strong, gods are weak".
In essence, those so-called Mountain and Sea Gods in conventional perception are merely members of the Mountain and Sea Civilization.
Gods do not consider themselves superior, nor do mortals consider themselves absolutely inferior to gods.
This is precisely the first step for a civilization to break free from the shackles of gods and become a Divine Level Civilization in All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
After realizing this, the gods of Thebes gradually came to understand the true terrifying aspect of the Mountain and Sea Civilization.
At any time, at any place, a civilization composed in a "collective" form would burst out its greatest potential under extreme oppression and warfare.
Every local skirmish would promote technological iteration and upgrade, thereby causing more effective killing and destruction to the enemy in the next encounter.
Civilizations constantly elevate their limits throughout the process of war, with the individual being just the smallest part of the collective.
This is an offense that the gods who value individual power and focus only on themselves absolutely cannot and will not be allowed to commit.
Unknowingly, under the catalyst of war, the Mountain and Sea Civilization seemed to have reached the limits of its civilization, about to enter a new era.
