Chapter 279: Chapter 181 Welcome to the Second Loop (Part 2)_3
“What’s even more infuriating is that when players, demigods, and reincarnated gods initiated communication to question what was going on, the response from the other side was just a flippant sentence, “This is the divine will, you don’t need to obey, you just need to comply.”
The reincarnated gods unanimously responded, “Go to hell! We never said anything like that!”
The ship began to change direction, and the reincarnated gods decisively turned their guns on their own once-beloved sects.
The weapons of last resort, the Stars of Destruction, were activated, and one sect after another was uprooted by the players, plunging the entire world into a state of civil war amid the madness of players and gods.
Meanwhile, the Shadows began to massively invade the front lines, and it was only after the players had wiped out the sects that they realized the situation had become irretrievable.
More than half of the star system had fallen into the hands of the Shadows, the Heavenly Tao network had completely collapsed, and the flora and fauna were forced to retreat to the remaining areas, where they struggled to survive.
Although there were no casualties for the time being, their territory was shrinking continuously, and everything seemed beyond redemption.
After seizing more than half of the Heavenly Tao network, the God of Lies suddenly became a power that could rival Mr. Main God.
This graceful god, donned in a gorgeous robe, entered the Land of the Gods with the poise of a king, ready to represent the Shadows in taking over this place and to proclaim the victory of the Shadows.
The Shadows, flora and fauna, and gods, were originally part of the same existence, separated beings from the ancient race of “humans.”
And now, it was time for them to merge back into one and return to the Shadows.
Fang Cheng turned his head, glanced at the God of Lies, then said to Mr. Main God, “The God of Lies is also a problem, such a big god goes missing, and you don’t think of ways to prevent it? And, Him dabbling in things outside, you don’t keep watch? As a leader, I think you’re quite negligent.”
“... Sorry.”
“No need for apologies now, this is your calamity. However, part of the reason lies with my scissors here, so I still have a reason to act. But if you don’t fundamentally change the way you gods interact with the secular world, the same issues will occur. I will take the least impactful approach to repair all this, so you have to be more careful next time.”
“... Thank you.”
“I also need to discuss this matter with the players. This failure was a bit outrageous, but why am I not surprised at all?”
Fang Cheng sighed, feeling that next time, he needed to consider things more comprehensively.
Under the watchful, panicked gaze of the God of Lies, Fang Cheng opened his right hand, palms up, and then placed his left hand over it.
Subsequently, he flipped his hands, so his left hand was now on the bottom, and his right hand was on top.
Although it was a simple action, the God of Lies suddenly realized that time was rewinding, the Shadows were retreating, and everything around them was rapidly returning to its original place, eventually bringing time back to the moment the Shadows had just invaded.
Under the terrible power, She was dragged back to Her original place, outside, and She couldn’t resist this power at all, no matter how hard She tried.
Then, the voice of the Great Heavenly Lord rang in Their ears, as well as the ears of everyone else.
“Dear players, welcome to the second cycle.””
