Chapter 514 - Man and God as One, the Pursuers Had Arrived

Vincent looked at the High Priest and Great Divine Priests kneeling at his feet and said hurriedly, “All of you, get up! Tell me how to make the Origin Divine Tree grow again!”

The seven Great Divine Priests stood up one after another. Franklin and Amanda stepped forward to help the High Priest stand up. Everyone looked at Vincent with great respect. It was as if they saw light at the end of the tunnel.

The High Priest looked at Vincent devoutly and sighed, “If the gods appear, then the elves will be saved! You just need to spread the light of your divine spark on the Origin Divine Tree, and it will grow according to your will!”

Vincent put away the other divine sparks, leaving behind only his own divine spark of fire. He spread the red divine spark’s light on the Origin Divine Tree.

Vincent felt as if he had formed a connection with the seedling of the Origin Divine Tree in front of him, and through the roots of the Origin Divine Tree, he could sense the earth’s origin deep underground.

At that moment, Vincent felt as if he had formed a connection with the entire world. He had finally become a true God!

Vincent was slightly surprised. The Origin Divine Tree had such a wonderful feature. Unfortunately, he had never seen a wild Origin Divine Tree before, so he had no way of discovering the mystery within.

At the same time as he was connected to the earth, Vincent could sense the history of the world. He was able to reflect on the past changes in the world. The world would prosper and fall. The cycle kept repeating itself. The desolate and sorrowful vicissitudes of life instantly engulfed Vincent’s soul.

Vincent had always paid special attention to maintaining his human nature. He wanted to become a god who understood the sufferings of the Hunan World and knew the joys and sorrows of life. He did not want to be controlled by the divinity attached to his divine personality.

Therefore, even though Vincent had become a god of the Elf Race, his human nature and divine personality had always been in conflict with each other, causing him to be unable to control the many powers after becoming a god.

However, at that moment, the desolation brought about by the history of the Elf World had completely cleansed Vincent’s state of mind, allowing him to have a heart of a commoner whilst still having a desolate mind!

The desolate state of mind was a gift from deep underground, the core of the Origin Divine Earth. It allowed Vincent to view himself from an extraordinary perspective, adjusting the conflict between his human nature and divine personality. It allowed him to perfectly achieve the harmonious state of being one with God!

“Weng!”

A rumbling sound spread from Vincent’s glabella to the surroundings past the divine spark of fire. The entire earth shook incessantly, and the underground space seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.

Vincent had advanced to a level 46 creature!

When the High Priest and the other Great Divine Priests saw the scene, they could not help but be filled with shock. This was because Vincent’s strength was beyond their knowledge. Plus, he had completed his advancement with just a raise of his hand. His advancement had surpassed all the gods recorded in the ancient books.

If the records were true, then the Vincent in front of them was the most powerful god in the history of the Elf Race!

The earth soon stopped shaking and Vincent finally came back to his senses. At that moment, there was no emotion in his eyes. He was like a real god looking down on all the living beings in front of him.

The desolate state of mind allowed him to maintain the heartless state he had when he became a god. At that moment, his strength had reached the absolute peak, and his grasp of the fire law had reached another level. It reached the realm where he could do as he pleased.

As for his Flaming Sun Divine Body, he had advanced from the fourth level to the sixth level. Not only did he achieve perfect fire spiritualization and could use flames to heal his injuries in time, but he could also communicate with all the fire in the same world. He was able to become the true ruler of fire!

Vincent closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He used the desolate state of mind to switch himself back to his human nature. He opened his eyes once again to look at the Origin Divine Tree sapling in front of him. He began to imagine the Origin Divine Tree growing healthily in his mind.

Just as Vincent thought about it, the sapling of the Origin Divine Tree began to grow rapidly. It drilled into the soil above like a giant python and rushed straight toward the ground.

After seeing that the soil and underground space were about to collapse, Vincent snapped his fingers and opened a space door beside him. He said to the High Priest and the other Great Divine Priests, “Follow me. I can bring you back to the surface safely!”

The High Priest and the Great Divine Priests followed the oldest elf code. They did not doubt the guidance of the gods. They did not say anything and just followed Vincent into the space door.

As the space door closed, Vincent began to control the platform under his feet. He performed space jump and they returned to the auditorium in the blink of an eye.

The miraculous method made the Great Divine Priests sigh.

“This is the god of our Elf Race. He can control everything in the world with a single thought!”

“The Elf Race is saved. The Origin Divine Tree is saved. This world is also saved!”

Vincent had no time to care about the emotions of the crowd at this time. He saw Angelina and Avril preparing to go underground to find him.

Therefore, Vincent quickly opened the space door and took the lead to walk to the high platform. He shouted to Avril and Angelina, “I’m back!”

Following Vincent’s voice, Horace, Andy, Nico, and the other elves all raised their heads to look at the high platform.

They saw the High Priest and the Great Divine Priests appear from the void behind Vincent.

When everyone appeared, a tall Origin Divine Tree suddenly broke out of the ground and broke through the roof of the hall. The huge crown of the tree was like a giant umbrella, enveloping the entire Light Guardian Council. In the center of every leaf on the Origin Divine Tree, there was a ball of flames that was constantly jumping. The flames symbolized the will it had obtained from Vincent.

The High Priest raised his head to look at the trunk of the Origin Divine Tree that had fire patterns. He sighed with an excited expression, “It has been thousands of years. The Elf World has not seen the Origin Divine Fire Tree for thousands of years! This is the beginning of a true god and his new favor for the Elf Race. It is also a symbol of our Elf Race’s escape from darkness!”

As he spoke, the High Priest knelt and kowtowed sincerely to the Origin Divine Fire Tree.

The Seven High Priests also followed the High Priest to kowtow toward the Origin Divine Fire Tree.

“Father! Mother!”

At that moment, Andy ran forward with an excited expression. Her eyes were filled with both excitement and fear as she looked at Great Divine Priest Franklin and Great Divine Priest Amanda who were kowtowing reverently.

When Vincent saw the scene, he turned around and said, “Franklin and Amanda, you should go out and have a good chat with your daughter! Please find a quiet place. High Priest, I have something important to discuss with you!”

After hearing Vincent’s amiable tone, the High Priest who was lying on the ground, could not help but tremble. He said, “Following the will of God is an obligation that every believer should fulfill. I will always serve you with the most pious heart!”

Vincent nodded and said, “The rest of the Great Divine Priests will be responsible for gathering the members of the Light Guardian Council. They are currently looking for you in the jungle!”

“Yes!” answered the remaining Great Divine Priests.

They then stood up and walked out.

Franklin and Amanda walked in front of their daughter. They took Andy’s hand with remorse and guilt and slowly walked out of the auditorium.

After the High Priest stood up, he quickly retreated from the high platform. He did not dare to stand side by side with Vincent.

Vincent nodded slightly to Angelina and Avril, asking them to wait for him outside. The two women naturally obeyed Vincent’s orders. They turned around and walked out of the door.

They closed the door of the auditorium.

At that moment, only Vincent and the High Priest were left in the auditorium, as well as Horace, who had not spoken.

After the High Priest walked down from the high platform, he immediately noticed Horace in front of him. His eyes could not help but flash with a trace of confusion. He did not understand why the other party continued to stay in the auditorium despite the god’s request to have a secret conversation with him.

“Let me introduce you. This is the High Priest of the Light Guardian Council!” said Vincent loudly.

He then looked at the High Priest and pointed at Horace, “And the person in front of you is the new Wood God of the Elf Race, Horace!”

The High Priest took a few steps back. The Fire God was not the only god who had come to the Light Guardian Council that day. Instead, there were two gods who were visiting the Light Guardian Council at the same time. This proved that their devout prayers for the past hundreds of years had finally received the approval of the gods!

In his excitement, the High Priest wanted to kneel and kowtow to Horace, but Horace rushed in front of the High Priest and stopped him.

Horace said with a serious face, “There’s no need to pay attention to these feints now. This is a critical juncture that concerns the life and death of the elves. Let’s get down to business first!”

The High Priest nodded. When he thought of the attitude of the two gods toward him, tears welled up in his old eyes. He muttered, “Great God, your most devout believer, Marcellus, how could he receive such generous treatment from you?!”

Horace originally thought that he was used to being a god. He had formed some deep friendships with the elves in Serene Spring City. Although everyone respected him as a god, they were not as obsessed as Marcellus. For a moment, he could not help but feel a little embarrassed.

Horace coughed twice and spoke to Marcellus with a profound sense of righteousness, “Ahem! We were originally leading the elves to resist the rule of the demons. However, we have now discovered that Gajero’s clone is trying to bind himself to the land of the elves. He wants to come back to life as the God of the World. Therefore, we want to find out if there are any methods to stop him in the ancient books kept by the Light Guardian Council. If you are indeed pious to us, then help us find those books as soon as possible!”

Horace urged Marcellus to quickly deal with the matters at the same time.

Marcellus’s expression instantly changed, and he muttered, “There’s actually someone who wants to steal the position of the God of the World. No wonder the Origin Divine Tree that we worship had suddenly withered. It turns out that someone wants to destroy the last Origin Divine Tree of the Elf Race and trigger an apocalypse!”

Horace was shocked when he heard that. He quickly asked, “What? This is the last Origin Divine Tree of the Elf Race?”

Marcellus nodded and said, “Back then, the founder of the Light Guardian Council brought his followers to every corner of the Tias Mountain Range. They found one very weak seedling of the Origin Divine Tree. That was why they built an auditorium here to guard the last Origin Divine Tree. It was also to guard the fate of the Elf Race! But I didn’t expect for it to almost be destroyed!”

Vincent jumped down from the high platform and said in a deep voice, “That’s because you chose to stay in the Tias Mountain Range. It’s equivalent to letting the demons out there, run free. It made them even more destructive to the Elf World. In the end, they were almost unstoppable!”

Marcellus lowered his head with a pious face and said, “Your criticism is right! We misinterpreted our faith and caused the Elf Race to weaken. From now on, the Light Guardian Council is willing to accept the guidance of God and fight against all enemies who dare to invade the Elf Race!”

Vincent waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to talk about fighting yet. First, tell me about the ancient books of the Elf Race. Are there any records on how to prevent the resurrection of the God of the World?”

Marcellus looked at Vincent and the Origin Divine Tree. He then muttered, “Actually, you have already stopped the revival of the God of the World because you have successfully allowed the Origin Divine Tree to grow again. This proves that you have received the approval of the God of the World. The God of the World is also unwilling to let the Elf Race walk the path of destruction!”

Vincent turned to look at the Origin Divine Tree. He could not help but recall the feeling when his mind was connected to the entire world. He sighed. “It seems that even though the God of the World has become one with the land of the elves, he still has his own will. He is unable to resist the binding of Ramirez, but he can help me revive the Origin Divine Tree and prevent the elves from going extinct! Then, the only problem now is how to separate Ramirez from the land of the elves!”

Marcellus immediately said, “Regarding this point, there are indeed records in the ancient books about this. I will go and look for those ancient books now. Please wait for a moment!”

After hearing this, Vincent and Horace watched as Marcellus walked out of the hall with great excitement. The two of them looked at each other with gratification.

The hall was soon silent.

Horace said to Vincent happily, “We have successfully stopped an apocalypse and found a way to stop Ramirez. It can be said that we have won a great victory! Restoring the Elf Race is just around the corner!”

Vincent nodded and sighed in a relaxed tone, “It seems that this trip has gone quite smoothly. Now, we only need to make a final battle plan and we can completely drive the demons out of the Elf World!”

Horace quickly said, “You’re right. What we will do next will depend on your guidance!”

Vincent pondered for a moment and said to Horace, “I want you to stay! The Origin Divine Tree is only growing because it depends on the light of the gods. As for dealing with Ramirez, I have confidence!”

When Horace heard that, he immediately became hesitant. This was because he wanted to participate in the final battle between the Elf Race and the Demon Race personally. He wanted to witness the revival of the Elf Race with his own eyes. If he hid in the mountains, then he would not be able to get any information.

Vincent walked to Horace and said solemnly, “This is the last divine item belonging to the elves. Its life and death relate to the survival of the entire race. Right now, the elves only have two gods, so the responsibility of guarding the Origin Divine Tree should be shouldered by the two of us!”

“Alright, I’ll stay!”

After hearing what Vincent said, Horace agreed willingly. This was because he knew that he could not replace Vincent’s role on the battlefield. Therefore, he could only assume the responsibility of protecting the Origin Divine Tree. He chose to contribute silently to the Elf Race.

Vincent patted Horace’s shoulder with a gratified expression and said, “Don’t worry! I won’t let anyone forget your contributions. Everything you’ve done will always be worthy of the qualifications of a God!”

Horace nodded solemnly. This was because, in his heart, he had also entrusted the fate of the Elf Race to Vincent.

However, as they had fought side by side for so long, there was no need for them to express anything further.

At that moment, Marcellus pushed open the door of the hall, holding a thick stack of ancient books in his hands as he walked in.

Marcellus said respectfully, “Great Gods, I’ve already found a way to stop the demons!”

Vincent and Horace quickly asked, “What’s the solution?”

Marcellus held the book in his hands and answered seriously, “There are two solutions. First, when some evil power invades the elf land and tries to bind with the God of the World, any God can take action and use divine power to forcibly separate the evil from the God of the World. This is because the God of the World has a natural affinity with the elf divinity. He can respond to the power of the god!”

Marcellus continued to explain the second solution, “Secondly, when an elf god that holds the divine spark betrays and wants to bind with the God of the World, one must first extract the divine spark of that party. This way, the God of the World can automatically separate from the other party by instinct!”

Vincent took a deep breath and said, “Ramirez has the dark divine spark. However, we don’t have the ability to extract the divine spark at the moment!”

Marcellus nodded solemnly and said, “Yes! There are records regarding this in the elf books. That is an ability that only gods can cultivate. It is recorded in the oldest books of the Elf Race!”

As he spoke, Marcellus walked forward and handed the book in his hand to Vincent and Horace.

Horace made a prompt decision and said to Vincent, “There is no time to lose. You cultivate first. I will be responsible for protecting you and the Origin Divine Tree!”

Vincent did not hesitate. He nodded and took the ancient book. He turned around, walked under the Origin Divine Tree, and began to read the book seriously.

At the same time, a huge spaceship suddenly entered the Black Hole not far away from the capital of Ultimate Evil. A terrifying power instantly radiated into the entire Elf World. It made every elf feel as if doomsday was approaching.

Inside the spaceship, the Ultimate Evil Lord, who was holding a scepter in his hand, was standing in front of the control panel with a solemn expression.

Behind him were the high-level creatures of the Feathered Monster Race, the Evil Spirit Race, the Vampire Race, and many others from the capital of Ultimate Evil.

The Ultimate Evil Lord gnashed his teeth and said, “We are here for only one purpose, and that is to punish the traitor Vincent severely! Investigate him immediately and see if he is in this world!”

Everyone answered in unison, “Yes!”

The door of the spaceship soon opened, and countless high-level creatures began to rush into Elf World, ready to search for Vincent’s whereabouts.

However, the moment the outside air rushed into the spaceship, the Ultimate Evil Lord’s expression instantly changed. He roared furiously, “Wait! I seem to feel an even more annoying aura!”
