Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

One aspect of the World of Gods differed significantly from the Myriad Heavens, and that was how the gods’ Divine Kingdoms were not naturally-existing planes. Many of them were built from scratch.

Some of these gods placed great importance on concealing their own Divine Kingdoms. Even though their locations could be determined through spatial coordinates, it was difficult to find them directly because of the extreme complexity of their Divine Kingdoms' positions in the void.

Freidman, the God of Gluttony, was one such existence.

He built his Divine Kingdom in the depths of the void, and even entering or leaving it required several spatial jumps.

Legend had it that this god didn't value faith all that much. Instead, his favorite hobby was to hide in his Divine Kingdom every day and find a bunch of gourmet food to gorge on.

Therefore, it would take Shi Yeyan considerable effort to find the location of the Gluttony Divine Kingdom.

……

"It's already been three jumps. We’ll be able to arrive at the Divine Kingdom after two more spatial jumps," Andy calmly announced as he looked at his group, who were all busy throwing up on the ground.

"Lord Andy, how come we still need to do this two more times… Urgh…" One of the youths said bitterly, "Doesn't it normally only take four jumps?"

The spatial laws of the World of Gods were quite stable, so spatial jumping was a very unpleasant experience for the weak.

Andy calmly explained, "We still have to bring him back for judgment; we can't just let him die, so we took some long detours to weaken the impact of the spatial shocks."

Andy was naturally referring to Lu Jialiang. The teen was currently lying on the ground with a pale face, having already collapsed from vomiting too much. He no longer had the strength to budge even a little.

Lu Jialiang was the weakest and was therefore affected the most.

"My Lord, why don’t we… find a place to rest first?" The one who spoke earlier suggested with a troubled expression, "I think he's really going to die during transport if we keep going like this."

He patted Lu Jialiang's shoulder. The latter’s breathing had already become shallow and weak.

Andy was silent for a moment before he finally nodded. "Might as well."

Although they were in a hurry to bring back the apostle’s murderer, it was fine to rest a little as well—not even they themselves ever experienced five spatial jumps in a row when returning to the Divine Kingdom.

When the person beside him saw Andy agree, he broke into a smile and got up to kick Lu Jialiang. "Get up, you murderer!"

Lu Jialiang rolled over from the kick, having no strength left in his body, but when he heard the other person's words, he still used all his power to roar, "I'm not…"

The man laughed nastily and was about to give this youth a little lesson, but then he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Lu Jialiang fell sideways on the ground, but the shadow under him was expanding little by little, growing to the width of several people in the blink of an eye, as if it was a hideous giant maw.

"What is this…"

Before Andy and his party could react, Lu Jialiang's entire body fell into the shadow, as if falling into a bottomless abyss. His miserable shrieks seemed to echo endlessly in the crowd’s ears.

This scene made everyone’s blood run cold. The group felt like their hairs were standing on end. Only the Legend Rank Andy was able to maintain his composure slightly.

"Which Excellency is here?" He pushed down the fear in his heart and shouted at his surroundings.

After all, he and the others were apostles of a Tier 9 god. Even if the other party might be a great existence, they still wouldn’t attack unprovoked…

Bang!

A huge palm suddenly fell from the air, crushing the entire group.

……

After dealing with Andy's group using the attack Shi Yeyan subconsciously displayed, Gu Nan turned and left this small plane, heading for Freidman’s Divine Kingdom.

It’s just that not even he expected to run into someone the very moment he stepped out of this plane.

"Counting that time with Goro, you've already used the blame-shifting trick three times." Daoist Lingyang looked at Gu Nan helplessly with that middle-aged uncle's face.

Gu Nan’s cold gaze landed on him as he shrugged. "You even know about that?"

"It’s not that clever a trick." Daoist Lingyang shook his head.

If Diana and her group of gods were still fooled the first time Gu Nan used this trick, then Daoist Lingyang, who was already aware of this, wasn't so easy to fool.

After observing Gu Nan's every move this time around, he naturally realized what Gu Nan was trying to do.

"Scheming doesn’t suit you. It's not your style." Daoist Lingyang returned the gaze with the same indifference. "The God Hunting Manual is a good move… I also didn't expect that you’d actually want to start a war between the two sides."

Gu Nan's style had always been straightforward, and the God Hunting Manual was even more of an overt scheme. Compared to that, Daoist Lingyang didn't think much of this subsequent trick to shift the blame onto someone else.

"This plan has too many holes." Daoist Lingyang shook his head slightly. "Even if an apostle died, it still wouldn't be enough to make both sides lose their cool. Instead, you'd only expose yourself."

Gu Nan was in no hurry at this moment. He crossed his arms and asked, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Daoist Lingyang stared into his eyes and replied, "The fact it’s riddled with holes means that Zhuangxuan and Xue Ren aren’t involved. This is your own operation?"

"So what if it is?"

"Stop now." Daoist Lingyang sighed. "Return to the Heaven-God Alliance with me; I'll find a way to deal with the aftermath on this side… Countless living beings will suffer if the two sides go to war. Why do so?"

Gu Nan almost laughed. "How come I didn't know you were so compassionate? Forget it, I can’t chat with you anymore. The person I'm waiting for is here."

Daoist Lingyang froze, then saw Shi Yeyan's figure appear in a small plane nearby.

Of course Gu Nan didn’t waste so much time chatting with Daoist Lingyang because he had nothing else to do. Rather, he’d long since anticipated that his target would come here, so he was just waiting at the destination.

Gu Nan was far more familiar with the path leading to the Gluttony Divine Kingdom than these visitors from the Myriad Heavens. As long as Shi Yeyan intended to travel there, he would definitely have to pass through this region.

Daoist Lingyang's expression changed slightly as he hurriedly looked up, while Gu Nan's figure instantly vanished, leaving behind only a trace of imperceptible laws.

Daoist Lingyang, who knew him well, was slightly stunned and exclaimed incredulously, "Realm Level?!"

……

Above the endless void of the World of Gods, Song Fei and Zou Jiming stood side by side, and standing in front of them was the Ruler of War Eugene and the Ruler of Nightmares.

Two came from the Myriad Heavens, so this side naturally also sent two greater gods to receive them. The number worked out perfectly, with each godly faction sending one person.

Eugene had volunteered, while the Ruler of Nightmares was here because Song Fei's youngest apprentice, Lu Yang, had died precisely on his territory, so he couldn't shirk his responsibilities even if he wanted.

"Your Excellency Song Fei." The Ruler of Nightmares said with little emotion, "I apologize regarding that Star Ruler’s death, but it was indeed an accident."
