1174 Tempting a Goddess!
“Celestial Devils!”
Lin Feng took a deep breath. He knew how powerful the Celestial Devils were. Wherever the Celestial Devils passed, almost nothing was left intact, and all the worlds fell into oblivion. Back then, the Netherworld, Abyss and Nirvana were destroyed by the Celestial Devils, and became dead worlds. It was only a matter of time before they collapsed.
In fact, if not for Lin Feng, the Chaos after would probably have followed in the footsteps of the Netherworld, Abyss and Nirvana.
Hence, even though Lin Feng had destroyed Celestial Devil Rakshasa’s true form, he was still very wary of Celestial Devils.
However, what surprised Lin Feng was that the Celestial Devils in the sky actually turned around and disappeared without a trace. It was as if they did not gain any advantage after clashing head-on with the Supreme God Zeus.
“Celestial Devils, Zeus… Interesting. It’s already a miracle that the origin hasn’t been devoured when the Celestial Devils appeared. This world isn’t simple!”
Lin Feng quickly came to a conclusion based on the limited information. This world was probably not simple. However, the top priority was to find Perfected Deity Ruyi and see what he was planning in this world, to the point that he still hadn’t returned to the Spacetime Gate.
However, Lin Feng did not search with his mental power rashly. According to his previous senses, this Asman Continent was part of a divine kingdom. The master of the divine kingdom should be Asman, known as the Goddess of Fire.
If he used his mental power rashly, it would be extremely easy to be detected in the other party’s divine kingdom.
However, it was actually useless to develop his faction in Asman bit by bit. This world was a world dominated by gods. Only gods were high and almighty, and grasped the secrets of all worlds.
If he wanted to find Perfected Deity Ruyi, he still had to start with the gods.
“Asman, Goddess of Fire? All right, I’ll start with you.”
A smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. Then, he transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.
…
In a magnificent palace, an indescribably beautiful young maiden dressed in silk soaked her bare feet in a pool, watching the fish swim happily in the pool. However, there was not a trace of a smile on her face. Instead, there was a faint trace of worry between her brows.
Swoosh.
A scorching gust swept over, turning into a few winged sprites whose entire bodies were covered by flames. These were all fire sprites. The Goddess of Fire, Asman, had used pure fire power to shape their bodies. The souls she used were all hallowed souls with the strongest faiths.
“Your Majesty, the great Goddess of Fire, the evil Celestial Devils have already been repelled by the Supreme God. The Supreme God has ordered all the gods of the pantheons to close their divine kingdoms. We must not allow the cunning Celestial Devils to enter the divine kingdoms and disrupt the World of Gods!”
“Celestial Devils. The war has been going on for centuries. Hundreds of gods have fallen. Must we continue?”
The girl shook her head, and a trace of sorrow seemed to appear on her face. She was the Goddess of Fire, Asman. She was only a Lesser Goddess, and belonged to the Wildfire Pantheon.
She did not want war, because war only came with casualties. Gods were immortal. As long as there was still a single believer, gods would never die. However, against the Celestial Devils, gods had no advantage at all.
Hence, as the war went on, the gods were always at a disadvantage.
“Perhaps, I can help you to stay out of the war…”
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice entered Asman’s ears.
Asman turned around abruptly and saw a handsome man. He had flowing black hair and a long robe. He did not look like a lifeform from her divine kingdom.
“Huh? The aura on you is very unique. There’s no aura of divine kingdoms on you at all. You’re not a lifeform of the World of Gods!”
Asman’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately saw through the stranger’s identity.
Right now, the World of Gods had long transferred all living beings into the divine kingdoms. There were almost no lifeforms wandering outside the divine kingdoms. Hence, every lifeform carried the unique aura of the divine kingdoms. As a goddess, it was naturally very easy to distinguish the aura of divine kingdoms.
However, this mysterious man in front of her did not have any aura of divine kingdoms on him.
Then, there was only one possibility. He was an alien lifeform!
Ever since the Celestial Devils invaded the World of Gods, they had also seen lifeforms from alien worlds. In fact, they had seen many of them.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Feng. Just as you guessed, I’m not a lifeform of this world, but a lifeform from an alien world!”
Lin Feng looked at Asman for a long moment, and a smile appeared on his lips. He continued, “You didn’t contact your pantheon the moment you discovered me, which means that you should be willing to listen to me. I believe that you will make the right choice.”
Asman did not contact the other gods immediately. Just this detail had already exposed her true thoughts.
She was already tired of living on the verge of death every day. She did not want to fight with the Celestial Devils anymore.
“Alien lifeform, speak frankly. Else, I don’t mind contacting the other gods of the pantheon immediately. Even Celestial Devils cannot gain any advantage in the World of Gods, let alone a mere alien lifeform like you.”
Asman’s gaze was sharp. She also had her own pride.
The invasion of the Celestial Devils might have broken the peace of the World of Gods, but at the same time, it had also broadened the horizons of the many gods in the World of Gods. It made them realize that the World of Gods was no longer the only world, and there were still many other worlds.
“Asman, you are only a Lesser Goddess. If the Celestial Devils attack the pantheon you belong to, you will probably be used as cannon fodder to fight the Celestial Devils. You should know what the outcome will be. Your divine kingdom will be torn apart, and you will fall completely. Away from war and in a stable environment, you will still be a high and almighty deity, the one who dictates the life and death of billions of living beings, correct? I can give you such an environment!”
Lin Feng released a little of his aura. A huge phantom of a world appeared behind him, vaguely emitting the auras of civilizations like the Mages Civilization, the Chaotic Civilization, and so on.
Just a little amount of aura almost tore apart Asman’s divine kingdom, shocking her. Such a terrifying power was probably on par with those Celestial Devils, and was even comparable with Supreme God Zeus.
“You… Who exactly are you? You have to know that we’re facing the threat of the Celestial Devils. Who can be a match for the Celestial Devils?”
Asman’s voice was trembling from her shock at Lin Feng’s strength.
“Celestial Devils? This isn’t the first time I’ve encountered Celestial Devils. The last time, I destroyed the true form of a Celestial Devil…”
A smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. Then, with a wave of his hand, the scene of him slaying Celestial Devil Rakshasa appeared, revealing itself to Asman.
“Do you see it? That’s the true form of the Celestial Devil! They have unparalleled power, but so what? He’s dead, and I’ve destroyed his true form. As long as your Divine Kingdom can be integrated into my internal universe, you can stay completely away from the war, and return to your former peaceful life…”
Lin Feng tempted Asman step by step like the Big Bad Wolf tempting Little Red Riding Hood. He knew that Asman was wavering. Even a goddess could not remain unmoved by Lin Feng’s persuasion.
This was because gods had all the more reason to avoid falling. Everything Lin Feng had said seemed so perfect. What moved Asman even more was that Lin Feng had also displayed the ability to leave this world at any time.
Leaving the World of Gods, leaving the sky, leaving the war…
For a moment, the scales in Asman’s heart gradually tipped towards Lin Feng. To be precise, they tipped towards a stable and peaceful life. Asman yearned for all of this.
