Chapter 501
501. Reviving (4)
Silence.
A suffocating, brutal silence fills the hall.
Among the higher-ranking gods, none of them could open their mouths and their bodies were trembling and sweating non-stop.
I watched it with an expressionless expression and slowly opened my mouth.
“I should have made it clear?”
[ …. ]
“I think I told you to come to the front without a single one of you being left out.”
[That…]
“There is a limit to listening to pointless excuses or babble like that.”
In response, I looked at the six higher gods and warned them in a cold voice.
“I don’t think it would be good for you guys to come here as soon as possible and kneel quietly instead of trying to make a fuss.”
[ …. ]
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo…!!
[The god of transcendence and death shines coolly in his eyes, radiating the quality of divinity and soul.]
[─Because I’m on the verge of running out of patience. ]
Suddenly, as I lightly revealed my status as an ancient god, the faces of the higher-ranking gods turned pale.
By gaining power comparable to that of the three ancient gods, the status of divinity and soul has advanced to a higher level.
In the eyes of higher deities, the level of divinity and soul that this side possessed would have made them realize the difference in power between humans and ants or closer to that.
Is that why?
[The sacred
Clap—!
“?”
Perhaps because this side openly revealed the status of divinity and soul, it seemed to have made the higher deities feel a greater sense of crisis than expected.
Suddenly, the God of Redemption, one of the higher deities, activated the concept of divinity, which is the basis of the deity, and tied me up with chains made of divinity and attempted to escape.
The God of Redemption cried out as if his throat would be torn apart and rushed towards the exit of the stone chamber without even looking back.
Tadadat-!
[The God of Redemption screams and wants to escape from this horrible place.]
[ Uaaaaaa!! This, this, this is not possible!! No!! I need to get out of here!! I have to run away too─── ]
But.
[The Transcendence Myth
[From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s movements will be affected by the sacred effect of

From now on, the divine effect of
[※What is the situation? Even if it is a condition, it becomes possible to forcibly activate a specific ability.] [
※ However, if the activation of a specific ability is close to impossible, the closer the situation and conditions are, the greater the recoil from use of the effect.]
[▶ The effect is effective immediately after activation . [You will have to pay the price for going against the existing providence in some way.]
That too was only for a moment.
Swish-!
[The God of Transcendence and Death laughs at the trivial struggle.]
[I told you, right? me. I’m about to run out of patience. There is no next chance. ]
The moment when I appeared before the God of Redemption without any particular concern, using the divine effect ‘Force’ of the Transcendent Myth
[Sacred

[However, words that interfere with the laws of the world consume a lot of sacred power.]
《 Die. 》
As the sacred
Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
flurry?
There was nothing like that.
The God of Redemption simply inflated like a balloon filled with air and then burst and died without even leaving a single word.
Patter───!
The God of Redemption explodes and dies, and drops of blood, scattered throughout the stone chamber, pour down heavily as if they were hail.
“It’s not cool.”
[ …. ]
And at the same time, I sighed as if I was pitiful, and at the same time, the higher-ranking gods standing on the other side of the stone room silently expressed shock as if they were shocked.
“I think I’ve shown enough of an example with this…”
Jump, bump, bump -.
“how is it? What do you think? I guess it was quite appropriate for an example? Or…”
And…
[The God of Transcendence and Death speaks in a whisper while looking at the terrified higher gods.]
[Do I have to show them what happens when I run out of patience? ]
At this point, have the higher-ranking gods in front of me finished understanding the situation?
Slurp, flutter, flutter!
[Please save me. Please have mercy on us. Let me beg you here. Please just take a look. ]
[ We will no longer go against the wishes of the Great One. Please take away your anger. ]
[ …Say anything! Great One! I will make sure to follow those solemn words unconditionally! Please forgive our rudeness! ]
In an instant, the high-ranking gods quickly crawled out in front of the altar of divinity and bowed their heads on the stone floor.
Pisik-.
Satisfied.
***
As I climbed the Tower of Trials, did I discover a new aptitude that I didn’t even know about?
Perhaps thanks to the mental treatment know-how he has accumulated while making countless martial people good(?), he has now been able to completely eliminate even the anger management disorders of higher-ranking gods.
When I first appeared on the altar of divinity, I felt proud to see those who had been expressing anger and murderousness become such docile sheep.
‘After all, physical therapy is the best way to cure anger management disorders, whether for high-ranking gods or martial people.’
Then, with a light smile on my face, I slowly looked at the higher-ranking gods.
Just a moment ago, it seemed as if it would not only kill me painfully but also exterminate my relatives, but now it was not like that at all.
The only thing they seem to be very concerned about is what kind of words this person will say and whether the other person’s feelings will get worse.
Now, a good structure for talking to each other has been established.
‘The number of high-ranking gods had to be reduced from six to five… Isn’t that a particularly bad thing? You can think of it as population control.’
Among the ‘God of Floods’, ‘God of Basin’, ‘God of Painters’, ‘God of Redemption’, ‘God of Refining’ and ‘God of the Other Side’ summoned to the altar of divinity, the ‘God of Redemption’ died, but there was no problem.
In any case, having six high-ranking gods could be a bit overwhelming for the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman, so a balance patch was needed.
Then, I sat down comfortably on the sacred altar, tilted my head, and opened my mouth.
“First of all, before I explain what you guys need to do, I want to ask you one thing. “I’ll ask that first and then move on.”
[ Yes yes! Oh, you can ask as much as you want! It is an honor for us to be able to give something back to this great man. Hahaha…. ]
“You guys. If you are a high-level god, you probably have a vague idea of what the Tower of Trials is for. Why did you make a contract with the Tower of Trials like this?”
[For us, it has more pros and cons. I know that the Tower of Trials is negative for the existence of Godhead. But even so, what can the Tower of Trials do? ]
“….”
I was dumbfounded and listened quietly to what he was saying.
[The God of Refining feels great fear towards you and barely continues speaking.]
[The Tower of Trials has been doing a lot of business with high-ranking gods and formal gods since ancient times. This too is just an extension of that. ]
[ So far, no one knows how many deals the Tower of Trials has made with the gods. To that extent, transactions between the Tower of Trials and the gods are no different from everyday life. ]
[ If you trade with the Tower of Trials, you can obtain a considerable amount of causality, and if you are lucky, you can also increase the hierarchy of divinity by one level. It’s more of a benefit than a disadvantage. ]
And then another higher godhead next to him continued his explanation.
[The god behind you is afraid of your overwhelming power and gives an answer with a sheepish smile.]
[Kyahaha… The Tower of Trials has wanted to eliminate the existence of gods by making deals with them since ancient times. What is the actual result? Nothing happened, right? Hehehe. ]
[ Many people believe that because of this, those who do not trade with the Tower of Trials are being eliminated. You can get a lot when trading with the Tower of Trials. ]
[ also. Sometimes, if we are lucky among the ‘challengers’ raised by the Tower of Trials,
we can make a failed apostle an official apostle, so it would be good for us to get a high-quality apostle. ]
Was the story of the Tower of Trials making a deal with the gods a much older story than we thought?
[The God of the Basin glances at you, notices you, and slowly opens his mouth.]
[There is a rumor that the Tower of Trials has created a testing ground on a planetary basis through ‘contracts’ rather than ‘deals’ and is forcing the hierarchy of divinity. I heard that they also experimented with raising it to . ]
[ Well, it’s probably not true anyway, but there is also a rumor that in the distant past, the Tower of Trials succeeded in creating an ancient deity. ]
[ Recently, there has been talk of an attempt to artificially create ancient deities like they did in the distant past by modifying a planet itself to create something called the ‘Battlefield of the Gods’… I don’t know if it’s true or not… ]
“That’s enough. .”
I frowned and waved my hands as I listened to the explanation secretly added by the god of the basin.
With that, the higher-ranking gods closed their mouths and silence came again.
But apart from that, I learned a lot from what they said.
‘Was it ultimately a matter of some kind of insensitivity to safety that led to a deal between a high-ranking deity or a formal deity with the Tower of Trials?’
I now understand why people such as higher-level gods or formal gods keep making deals with the Tower of Trials, which wants to eliminate the very existence of gods.
‘In the end, the Tower of Trials must have reached the unfounded conclusion, as always, that it is impossible to actually eliminate the existence of God.’
However, considering that the Tower of Trials ultimately succeeded in raising a ‘me’ who can even eliminate the immortality of the ancient godhead, it is a foolish idea.
‘Isn’t there a recent attempt by the Tower of Trials to artificially create an ancient deity since Battlefield of the Gods?’
what.
Wasn’t it I who told the Tower of Trials that it was impossible to create an ancient deity that suited one’s tastes in the ‘Battlefield of the Gods’?
Even if we tried to imitate this divinity,
At least for the time being.
‘It’s good information that the Tower of Trials can partially dilute the causality restrictions through transactions or contracts.’
I knew that perhaps the Tower of Trials could ask the ancient gods in the pantheon to subdue me through a ‘deal’ or ‘contract’.
‘I knew it. Even those who are only high-ranking gods know quite a lot because they have lived for hundreds or thousands of years. ‘It was good to hear your story.’
step.
Aren’t they preparing for this by assuming that not only the Tower of Trials, but also the Pantheon, and the God of Despair, Fall, and Madness are their enemies?
Even if the final battle begins as time passes, many things will change depending on how you prepare from now on.
widely-!
“Well, now that the story is over, let’s get started.”
[ yes? You mean the beginning of a poem? I don’t know what we’re starting… Is there something we need to do? ]
“ah. I guess I forgot to tell you. Well, it’s not such a bad thing for you guys.”
[…? ]
“It’s simple.”
Just like that, I turned my head and looked at the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman standing beyond, and said with a grin.
“All you can do is fight with all your might until the two apostles over there die.”
[ …. ]
And….
[The gods of transcendence and death are happy, looking forward to seeing the two apostles become stronger by beating the punching bags.]
[ Ah -. For your information, I will make an example of the guy who ignores what I said and doesn’t fight with all his might, just like before, so I expect that.]
The Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman.
Depending on how you train these two managers, you will know how to deal with the powerful enemies you will encounter in the future.
…That’s because from now on, these two administrators will become my secret weapons for the final battle as Goddess Apostles.
