Chapter 607: 556 Expansion Four

Pure White Praise Theocracy.

Upon the vast and fertile plains, a majestic and pure white castle stood silently erect.

Warm sunlight spread everywhere, humidity was pleasant, and the scent of green grass and fresh flowers wafted in the wind.

Within the Pure White God System, besides the White God, the two most powerful deities were currently sitting face to face inside the castle.

God of Blazing Fire Kasman, War God Korsh.

These two deities were the strongest among the dozens within the Pure White God System.

This castle was also the site their incarnations most preferred to descend upon.

Deities walked the earth, not arriving in their true forms but rather sending avatars to avoid risk.

This way, they could prevent accidental harm to their divine nature and Divine Fire.

After all, if the true body fell, any being that obtained the divine office and nature could ignite the Divine Fire and ascend to the heavens in one step.

"Recently, many princes within our god system have been acting strangely, among them, the gods of flowing water and music have lost contact for half a month now. Has Lord Korsh noticed?"

The God of Blazing Fire asked in a deep voice.

"Not only that, the God of Forging, God of Weapons, God of Reliefs, God of Knowledge, all have had issues. Their whereabouts have become increasingly secretive, and the cooperation summoned through transmission is also remarkably slow," said the War God, frowning.

"This change started after those Outer Gods of White Wax made contact with the Supreme God. They must be up to something!" The God of Blazing Fire thought of the deep intentions of those Outer Gods, and anger surged in his heart.

"Perhaps they have concerns and wish to wait and see," pondered the War God with a flicker of worry across his face.

"No, it must be caused by the Outer Gods of White Wax. I have a premonition; although they are cooperating with the Supreme God to arrange the ritual schedule, they are without a doubt undertaking other actions. That Divine Intention does not seem as foolish as he makes himself out to be," said the God of Blazing Fire, coldly.

"The princes with medium divine power, they haven’t been affected, have they?" asked the War God.

"No, they haven’t. I just attended a feast a few days ago. Their divine nations are unharmed," nodded the God of Blazing Fire.

The Star Realm is vast, and the divine nations of the various deities are located in different places.

Not all deities choose to place their divine nations near Anze.

Some are far deep within the Star Realm.

"I have reported to the Supreme God, and he has not responded. Perhaps it is tacit approval. For now, our only option is to wait for the full arrangement to be completed, then speak of destroying everything. At least for now, the resistance from the Sunlight Council is strong, and we still need the power of White Wax," the War God said in a heavy voice.

"I hope those guys don’t go too far, or else... I don’t care about any Divine Intention or Evil Thoughts, I’ll immediately draw out his soul and have it eternally nailed at the highest point of the divine nation to endure the punishment of the cold wind eagle pecking!" the God of Blazing Fire said with a turbulent tone.

The War God sighed and did not respond further.

Venus Federation.

National Hunter Headquarters.

"The situation in Ludian City has stabilized according to observations."

Inside the main conference hall, the head of Hunter Headquarters and a group of the highest-ranked top hunters sat side by side.

In the spacious conference hall, secretaries were busily distributing freshly received intelligence reports, one for each person.

Chief Leo rubbed his temples wearily and glanced over at those present.

"We have received a message from the Sunlight Council that the battle outside the heavens is still at a stalemate. The primary task for our internal nations is still to stabilize social order and investigate the whereabouts of any infiltrators."

"The Pure White Praise Theocracy has been sending the Divine Tribunal to attack small church groups in various places, causing a severe negative impact. Our first concern should be how to quickly..." A high-ranking hunter began, only to be interrupted by the chief.

"Wait, that’s not the purpose of this meeting. The problem with the Divine Tribunal is for the council to resolve. What we need to discuss today is another, more troublesome issue," he said, sighing.

"A more troublesome issue? Could there be something more urgent than the Pure White Praise?" asked a high-ranking female hunter, frowning.

"In terms of urgency, indeed so," nodded the chief.

He then watched as the faces around him showed shock, and their gaze sharpened towards him.

He paused for a moment.

"I just received news that at least five members of the Sunlight Council from various countries have declared seclusion since last week, no longer accepting any external visitors."

"Envoys sent by the Speaker for communication have also received no reply," he sighed.

"Do we know the specific reason?" someone asked loudly.

"No," the chief shook his head. "All we know is that it’s directly related to the church groups these council members belong to. After all, every action they take is intricately linked with the powerful existences in the dark world behind them."

"Is there no other useful information?" someone asked seriously.

"There’s only one directive from the council," the chief sighed, "and that is..."

He took a breath and looked around at everyone.

"To investigate a mysterious organization called The Garden that has penetrated deep into our ranks."

The Garden?

Many high-ranking hunters’ expressions grew solemn.

An organization capable of directly affecting council members of the Sunlight Council... Such a force had silently infiltrated their entire organization. Thinking about it was frightening.

"If any of you come into possession of relevant information or intelligence, please report it immediately. The council will surely reward it handsomely," said the chief in a grave voice.

When he represented the Venus Federation Hunter Headquarters at the council meeting, he felt an atmosphere even more somber than now. Yet, many things, many secrets, he could not lay bare here.

The erosion by The Garden was actually more severe than the hunters had imagined...

What would the future of Anze hold... he was filled with worry.

One week’s time.

Li Chengyi had continuously eroded and breached the weak divine nations of the Elf God System and the Element God System.

He forcibly subjugated their deities.

His terrifying power and efficiency made Randy’s heart tremble, and his respect for him grew even more.

The force of The Garden, after gaining fifteen True Gods, had grown increasingly expansive and robust.

Despite their reluctance to aid The Garden, no one dared to rebel under the oppressive force of Li Chengyi.

For the gods who had rebeled had their godhood completely destroyed, Divine Fires extinguished, and even their divine offices thoroughly eradicated, forever slumbering in the vastness of the Star Realm.

If there hadn’t been any gods who resisted, Li Chengyi would likely have had three more divinities under his command.

Inside the office.

Li Chengyi leisurely picked up a bottle of nutrient fluid, carefully dripping it into the soil at the base of the flower beds.

Randy and Melo had just left, and the next steps for The Garden were about to commence.

After absorbing minimal divine power, he set his sights on the lower-tier divine powers.

The Pantheon Alliance seemed to have noticed, and the Sunlight Council had issued numerous orders to gather intelligence on The Garden.

But Li Chengyi didn’t care. He preyed upon the Elf God System and the Element God System, and also managed to subdue a few from the Pantheon Alliance. Among those fifteen True Gods, several came from the Pantheon Alliance.

Supported by a vast power, a large number of Wisteria Flower Variants began to gather near the urban area where he was located.

A gigantic garden, constructed by Li Chengyi himself, had its frame already built on the outskirts.

Many of the potted plants from the office had been transplanted there.

Only the new variety of Wisteria Flowers brought by Niya, the Multi-leaf Wisteria, remained.

Everything was developing favorably.

Li Chengyi set down the bottle of nutrient fluid and extended his hand, brushing over the slightly whitened Wisteria Flowers.

Flower energy continuously flowed into him, converging into the Mark of the Evil Flower.

Before long, the energy needed for the seventh evolution of the Wisteria Flower was successfully replenished.

All that remained was the replenishment of Evil Thoughts.

"Budouna."

Li Chengyi’s thoughts stirred slightly, and he transmitted a message.

"Here." The Gem Dragon emerged from a corner, respectfully looking at him.

"Is the matter I had you arrange taken care of?" Li Chengyi asked indifferently.

Matter?

What matter!?

Budouna was utterly confounded. She couldn’t recall any recent task assigned by him.

Thump!!

A crisp sound echoed through The Garden.

Li Chengyi’s palm struck Budouna’s cheek fiercely.

The immense force made her head buzz slightly, nearly causing her to faint.

The seemingly simple slap was laced with a vast amount of special energy, scorching hot and bearing a strong purifying intent.

Her right cheek quickly swelled up.

"Did you not take my words to heart!?" Li Chengyi’s voice carried a low transmission, "I asked you to arrange for people to pretend to capture that woman named Anya, have you forgotten!?"

"You haven’t said anything at all!?" The Gem Dragon, confounded, couldn’t help but retort.

"You dare talk back!?" Li Chengyi cut off her voice, his eyes turning cold, as a Sword of Wisdom silently exploded within Budouna’s abdominal cavity.

With a spurt, a mouthful of blood spilled from her lips, almost causing her to collapse in pain.

"It’s not...you...really...didn’t say...." The honest creature still struggled, a face full of injustice.

Of course, Li Chengyi knew he hadn’t said anything; he was merely looking for an excuse to beat her up.

Feeling a surge of copious Evil Thoughts from her.

Anger +3.

Anger +3.

Hatred +2.

A series of Evil Thoughts quickly satisfied the needs of the Evil Flower.

Watching as the Evil Thoughts of the Wisteria Flower rapidly soared, reaching forty-some percent in a few moments.

"Hmm... Did I really not say it?" Li Chengyi glanced at Budouna and rubbed his chin questioningly.

"Really....." Budouna replied, enduring the pain.

"Seems like... indeed I didn’t say it..." Li Chengyi showed an expression of realization.

"I just said...." Budouna suddenly became excited, wasn’t this a wrongful accusation??

Thump!!

Another Sword of Wisdom exploded inside her thoracic cavity. The immense pain made her want to scream, but immediately a silent death magic sealed her mouth, preventing any sound.

"Did I allow you to speak!?" Li Chengyi’s gaze was icy as he glanced at her.

The piercing intent to kill couldn’t quench the burning rage in Budouna’s heart.

The fury from being wronged and the agony of the body, both stifled by overwhelming oppression in her chest, remained unvented.

But she dared not rebel. Having seen True God Randy behave with utmost respect before her master, she knew she was nothing but an insignificant ant in his eyes.

The anger and Evil Thoughts continuously poured into Li Chengyi’s mark, the percentage rapidly climbing, reaching the sixties soon after.

The speed was so astonishing that Li Chengyi couldn’t help but marvel.

Next, Budouna’s emotions seemed to deviate from anger, gradually stabilizing instead.

Her countenance turned even colder, and deep within her eyes lay barely discernible hatred.

But this was exactly what Li Chengyi wanted; these gangsters who had slaughtered countless in their cities, if they weren’t somewhat useful, he would have killed them all long ago.

Being able to make use of waste, he deemed it squeezing out their last bit of value.

Seeing Budouna was of no further use, he snorted coldly.

"Go inform Randy and summon all the members to the stronghold." The remaining Evil Thoughts could be extracted from the other members instead.

They were all trash anyway; finding any excuse to beat a few should suffice to fill the remaining quota.

"Yes."

Budouna promptly left The Garden; her powerful regenerative abilities meant she bore no injuries on her body now, but the humiliation and anger in her heart were wounds that could never be erased.
