Lee Gun was surprised by the item that fell right in front of him. It was the Divine status of the Great Spirit who Sagittarius had disappeared along with. The implication was clear.
[Sagittarius succeeded!]
[We were able to send the Karmic debt back to the Great Spirit!]
However, Lee Gun didnāt laugh; he had felt it.
āHis life energy is gone.ā
As a member of the twelve Zodiacs, Sagittariusās sister Virgo must have felt it too.
Lee Gun immediately used Pond to move. The other disciples and gods quickly followed him.
āUncle!ā
[Master!]
It wasnāt too hard for Lee Gun to find where Sagittarius and Valhallaās Great Spirit had perished. A large crater lay where the two of them had passed away. That wasnāt all.
āUncleā¦! Over thereā¦.ā
Chun Yooha pointed at something on the ground.
Lee Gun approached that location and picked up the items. They were the wig and various articles of clothing he had made. They were scattered on the ground.
It seemed Sagittariusās body ceased to exist while leaving behind his clothes. Everyone knew what this meant.
[Did Sagittarius perish too?]
[It seems so. He must have been swept away after getting rid of the Lord of the Skyā¦]
At that momentā¦
[What the hell? What happened here?]
[Where are we?]
Countless gods within Gehenna woke up, looking confused. They were the gods who were used as Karmic debt storage and thrown away by the Great Spirits. They ranged from high-rank to low-rank gods.
They had regained their original forms when Sagittarius had sent the Karmic debt back to where it originally belonged.
They were surprised as soon as they saw Lee Gun.
[Iā¦Is he a new Great Spirit?]
[Iā¦I think so!]
[He looks to be human. By the look of his energy, he doesnāt seem to be an ordinary god!]
These gods had spent hundreds of years as evil gods. They had been roaming with no capability of rational thought.
Naturally, they didnāt recognize Lee Gun. However, they could tell that he was a Great Spirit by looking at his aura. Of course, some were unable to accept the truth.
[No way! How could a kid like that be a Great Spiritā¦]
[You are right. He appears to have less internal force than meā¦]
Butā¦
[You presume too much! This person is the ninth Great Spiritā¦ Ah. I guess there are no longer nine of us. Anyway, he is the Wicked Lord. Heās one of the Great Spirits!]
[What?! There is no wayā]
[I can attest to it.]
When Kunlunās Great Spirit spoke up, all the gods were shocked. If even he was attesting to this, Lee Gun really was a Great Spirit.
And Kunlunās Great Spirit speaking in such a fashion meantā¦
[It means the Wicked Lord saved us!]
[We regained our original bodies! Thank you very much!]
[We swear our fealty to our benefactor.]
Lee Gun felt bitter at those words. He picked up Sagittariusās clothes and Divine status.
[Creator Tribe: Creatorās Divine status]
It was Galanās Divine status.
Virgo let out a bitter smile when she saw it.
[You did something that isnāt like you.]
She could guess what Sagittarius had done at the end. And Lee Gun, Aslan, and the others guessed the same.
Lee Gun furrowed his brows as he held the Divine status. āWho said you could die?ā
āLee Gun-nimā¦.ā
He didnāt feel good about it since Sagittarius was his uncle.
[Still, heā¦.]
āI still havenāt taken revenge on him for killing my junior.ā
āLā¦Lee Gun-nim?ā
āHmmph. He also didnāt pay the fee for using the wig and clothes that I made for him. Is he trying to dine and dash? Are you kidding me?ā
āLā¦Lee Gun-nim??ā
Lee Gun was called the god of revival. He snorted as he clutched Galanās Divine status. āIāll revive him no matter what it takes. There is no way Iāll let you die in peace.ā
In the end, everyone clicked their tongues as if they should have expected this.
As Lee Gun put away the Divine statusā¦
āUncle?!ā
For a moment, Lee Gun became unsteady on his feet.
The Chun siblings rushed toward him in surprise, but he waved them away.
āI used too much power. Iām fine.ā
Moreover, his body had taken significant damage when the Karmic debt had been transferred to him.
āSuper Regeneration isnāt enough to handle it.ā
His Divine status and soul had also been damaged. If he were being honest, he would have been in danger without Sagittariusās actions. If he had fought the Lord of the Sky in that state, he would have died after the fight.
āIām having a hard time recovering despite having someone with 450% Faith.ā
His regeneration was very slow. It felt as if his body was crumbling and his soul and Divine status were deteriorating.
āIf I donāt have someone with extremely high Faithā¦ā
Lee Gun furrowed his brows. He had gotten rid of the Great Spirits and acquired the power of the Primordial god that they possessed. Howeverā¦
āWill my body last until I get rid of the monarchs?ā
The problem was Wind, whom the idiot Hugo had gone to find.
āIf they are hellbent on invading all at once, the earth wonāt be able to take it.ā
Search tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w for the original.
While they were keeping their power hidden, they were archaic beings. However, that wasnāt important right now.
āI have to get my hands on the Rule Book. I have to separate the earth from the Divine world.ā
When Lee Gun got ready to move, Aslan brushed his head.
āYour body is not doing well. Donāt overdo it.ā
ā!ā
āI already sent Leo. Heād do well at sniffing out the Rule Book. You should rest.ā Aslan was about to say he was going to bring the Rule Book when something surprised him. He quickly turned his head.
Kwahng!!!!
āā¦kuhk!!ā
ā!!ā
Aslanās arm was ruthlessly severed, and blood fountained into the air.
[Old master!!]
[Aslan!]
Aslan slumped to the ground as he vomited blood.
Then a being made his presence known.
[Iāll start it off by cutting off your arm.]
āā¦!!ā
No one couldnāt feel his presence.
All the gods became surprised when they saw the handsome manās sudden attack. Lee Gun became guarded as he immediately activated Death.
Their opponent was the last Great Spirit, who had remained hidden until now.
āThe Lord of the Fire Wheelā¦!!ā
He was the Great Spirit of Ennead. The Great Spirit had long hair that was letting out flames, and he had his arms crossed. He was an arrogant-looking young man.
The bloodied Aslan furrowed his brow as he glared at his opponent. āI was wondering when you would make an appearance.ā
Aslan had expected this. If one was asked to pick the strongest among the Great Spirits, it would have to be either the Lord of the Sky or the Lord of the Fire Wheel, who was the sun and a king-like figure to the gods.
As soon as he appeared, the air changed. It was clear that he had purposefully been hiding his true power.
[As expected of a slime, you are tough to kill. I guess I would have been disappointed if you had fallen over with that attack. Why do you think I let you beat me? Why do you think I stayed stuck in that basement?]
āā¦!ā
[No one will get in my way now. I can relax and kill you now. Iāll kill you and your kid.]
ā!ā
Aslan, who had sealed Enneadās Great Spirit, got up unsteadily. āI didnāt think you would make it easy and die, butā¦ā
For some reason, Enneadās Great Spirit had pretended to lose to Aslan. He had voluntarily stayed in the underground.
As if to confirm this, Enneadās Great Spirit smirked.
[That idiot Odinā¦ He got dragged away by his own Karmic debt. That idiot should have stayed hidden like me.]
Enneadās Great Spirit brushed his hands off. He laughed as if he was complementing Lee Gun.
[Thanks, kid. You got rid of other Great Spirits and the problem child for me.]
The gods looked at him in shock.
[Got rid of them for youā¦ No way!]
[Why do you think I pretended to lose to that bastard? Why would I keep myself hidden in the basement?]
[Could it beā¦.]
[Yes. It had to do with the Divine status that you are holding. The reason was Galan.]
[ā¦!!!]
Enneadās Great Spirit cackled as he looked at the Divine status in Lee Gunās hands.
In truth, Galan was a substitute. He was a substitute for one of the six abilities possessed by the Primordial god. He was a substitute for Exoneration.
In other words, it didnāt matter what one did. It didn't matter what sins one committed. The Exoneration ability allowed one to get exonerated.
However, that power couldnāt be taken away, so they had to come up with a substitute.
Anyway, the Lord of the Sky and the others used the Karmic Debt Transfer recklessly as a substitute for Exoneration, but Enneadās Great Spirit was different. He had long realized it.
āSagittarius is Galan.ā
It had happened when Olympusās White Reaper had stolen a precious item of Enneadās Great Spirit. The whole Divine world had been turned on its head.
The gods had made a big fuss about declaring war, but Enneadās Great Spirit had felt a chill run up his spine for an entirely different reason. He was the only one who had noticed it.
āThatās him.ā
It might have been done without him realizing it, but only one being could steal something that had been sealed so tightly.
After realizing his identity, Enneadās Great Spirit had purposefully refused to use Karmic Debt Transfer.
[If he recovered his memories, I knew he would kill the others by using Return Karmic Debt. Thatās the kind of bastard he is.]
He also knew that Galan would die afterward because of his own Karmic debt.
The gods felt chills run up their spines.
[That was why you pretended to lose until Galan disappearedā¦!]
[Thatās right. He died a purposeless death. No, he sacrificed himself for me!]
When Enneadās Great Spirit laughed, the heaven and earth shook violently.
Kwahng!!!
āKyahhhhk!ā
Lava boiled up on the surface, and in a flash, the earth was surrounded by a light. No one could think straight afterward.
Flash!
Accompanying a powerful light, around half of the earth was ruthlessly blown to pieces.
Zzuhng!!!
[Nameless beings have ceased to exist.]
[Nameless beings have ceased to exist.]
[Around 50% of the earth has been destroyed.]
It had happened in the blink of an eye.
The disciples and gods were shocked by the development. They immediately used protection and healing skills, but the damage was too vast.
Enneadās Great Spirit acted as if he had been under the weather and this action had loosened up his body. He laughed.
The fallen Aslan secretly tried to move his hand, but the overwhelming power of Enneadās Great Spirit pressed down on him.
Kwah-jeek!!!
āā¦kuhk!ā
[Old Master!]
Aslanās body was instantly destroyed, and the body of a slime appeared in its place. The slime didnāt move as if it was dead.
Enneadās Great Spirit contemptuously laughed since he had gotten rid of the most troublesome foe first.
[You failed to kill me before. You canāt do anything to me.]
Enneadās Great Spirit was about to destroy the slime for good.
Kwahng!!!
However, Lee Gun appeared behind Enneadās Great Spirit, aiming for the Great Spiritās neck.
An enormous power clashed against another enormous power as heaven and earth shook.
Enneadās Great Spirit looked at Lee Gun as if he found Lee Gun admirable. The energy of Life was emanating from Lee Gunās body, and the entirety of the earth was being revived with Lifeās power.
[You are reviving your land while fighting me. You are a commendable child.]
Lee Gun furrowed his brows.
The destruction of the earth spanned 50%. Many living beings were either dead or severely wounded.
With the power of Life, the earth and its living beings could be saved.
However, Enneadās Great Spirit found this cute. He was having fun. He put on an arrogant smile.
That smile gave Kunlunās Great Spirit an ominous feeling. He realized something was wrong, so he changed into his dragon form.
[Snake god! Retract your power! You have to protect your body first!]
Enneadās eyes flashed as if the warning was too late. Then, something unbelievable happened.
Flash!!!
The power that had destroyed 50% of the earth was like childās play in front of this. The entirety of the earth was surrounded by a light.
Kwahng!!!
All of the earth disappeared. The gods and the disciples were swept away by the powerful shock.
On the other hand, Lee Gun was able to endure the attack. He raised his head, but he couldnāt maintain his expression. He didnāt see any land or city in front of him.
[Hundred percent of the earthās land is gone.]
[You are unable to feel any life energy from the earth.]
[Number of survivors: 0]
āā¦!!!ā
The blood drained from Lee Gunās face. Only empty space lay before him. The debris was the only thing left of the earth, and it dispersed like dust.
The only humans alive were the few disciples who had managed to take refuge within the semi-translucent dragon form of Kunlunās Great Spirit.
āThe earth isā¦!ā
āAll the people thereā¦ Can it beā¦!ā
It truly was the extinction of humanity.
Enneadās Great Spirit had a thin smile on his lips.
[What? Did you think Iām like the other Great Spirits who became possessive of this colony?]
Lee Gun glared at him.
[Life Stage 6]
When he activated the power of Life, something surprising happened.
Koo-goo-goong!!
[The power of Time has been activated.]
[The past data has been read, and the exact version of the earth will be revived.]
[All life on the earth will be returned to its original state.]
The destroyed earth started to revert to its original form. Even the Great Spirits were surprised by what they saw.
Lee Gun hadnāt merely brought back the land. He had brought back the countless humans too. It was a wonder that something of that size could be reverted to normal.
Enneadās Great Spirit was impressed with this.
[Oh. You combined Time and Life to restore a land of that size. You are truly an impressive child.]
However, he snickered. As he laughed, he once again destroyed the earth.
Kwah-gwa-gwahng!!
āā¦!ā
He had merely moved a finger, yet the humans burned to death in pain. It was as if they were being burned by hellfire. The earth once again broke apart into pieces. Lee Gunās enormous efforts to restore it became pointless.
[This universe is like a sand castle. It is like a toy for me.]
Lee Gun glared at him as he tried to send Cycle toward Enneadās Great Spirit, but Cycle came to a stop at that moment.
[Eliminate]
Enneadās Great Spirit possessed one of the Primordial godās powers called Eliminate. He could eliminate even abilities.
This was why he sadistically smiled.
[You can restore it numerous times. I can spend all day destroying it. There is a limit to restoration and revival. You probably know this better than anyone.]
āā¦!!!ā
[Also, it doesnāt matter if you kill me.]
ā!ā
[I can die over and over again, but I can be revived endlessly through the process of inheritance. Moreover, I can retain my memories. What about you?]
The Great Spirit smiled thinly.
[As gods live longer, they become remembered for a very long time. We become stronger as we are worshiped for a longer period. You have been at this for twenty years. You are a fledgling god who canāt even remember a century. Do you think youāll be able to go through the process of inheritance? You probably know the answer better than anyone.]
āā¦!ā
It was Lee Gunās only weakness. His internal force was limited, and he was a god who hadnāt received anything through inheritance.
[Basically, I can kill those insects once more after you die.]
[What is it that you want?]
Enneadās Great Spirit let out a savage laugh at the question of Kunlunās Great Spirit.
[Hand it over. I want Ji, which that dragon possesses. I want the power of Cycle. Above all else, I want the Exoneration possessed by the snake god.]
Lee Gunās eyes flashed in anger. This bastard was asking for it.
