Chapter 201 The First Creator and the Fallen Creator

A fallen creator?!

The almost blasphemous language and undisguised sarcasm left everyone stunned.

The 'Creator' who was given the name 'Fallen' made everyone extremely uneasy just by hearing the name, as if it was filled with an ominous aura.

In the silence, everyone exchanged glances, and in each other's eyes, they saw deep shock.

They didn't know much about the legends of the 'Creator', and they mostly heard them from 'Adam': the original Creator created the world, but because he was betrayed, he fell into a 'death' slumber, waiting for the next 'awakening'.

But now, in addition to the 'original creator', a 'fallen creator' has emerged!
"Mr. Adam, you seem to know that 'fallen creator'?"

Orochimaru's eyes gleamed with longing, his fingers clenched unconsciously, and he asked in a trembling voice.

He was very curious!
It wasn't for Konoha, and it wasn't for Uchiha Muneki either.

It's purely a desire to explore the unknown, a thirst for knowledge at play, an impatient urge to see the hidden 'truth' of this world!
"We used to know each other, but we don't anymore."

Uchiha Munezuki's ambiguous description only fueled everyone's speculations.

Compared to Orochimaru's apparent 'desire', Sakumo seemed indifferent, Konan was slightly surprised, but only Onoki detected a calm, composed, and unconcerned attitude in 'Adam's' tone.

What is Adam's true identity?
The thought of discussing another 'creator' with such equanimity, even mockery, filled Onoki with dread and caused him to break out in a cold sweat.

No, I can't think about it anymore.
He swallowed hard, forcing himself to stop his thoughts from wandering.

Just then, Onoki seemed to sense a gaze from above.

"Yan, you seem very nervous?"

Uchiha Muneki's playful tone undoubtedly reinforced Onoki's 'guess'.

"No, Lord Adam."

Onoki didn't dare to look up, forcing a smile: "I was just a little shocked to hear 'Fallen Creator' for the first time."

"is it?"

Uchiha Muneki smiled softly.

Through his spiritual body, he saw Onoki, and his turbulent inner world: "Never mind, none of this matters."

Ōnoki, who had been looking down, felt the gaze shift away and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, next time you run into that group of people, you'd better be careful."

Uchiha Munetsuki spoke slowly, seemingly with a profound meaning: "Especially when you see the 'hanging giant' or the 'eyes behind the veil of shadow,' never look directly at them, otherwise it's the same as 'looking directly at God.' You should understand what that means, right?"

Onoki nodded with lingering fear. He had a brief experience of 'direct eye contact', and the pain was truly unforgettable.

However, when the phrase "the Hanged Giant" reached Orochimaru's ears, it immediately made him think of something, and he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Adam, when Uchiha Munetsuki was murdered, Danzo deliberately arranged his body in an upside-down position. What is the deeper meaning behind this?"

Uchiha Munezuki tapped the table lightly with his index finger, smiled faintly, and uttered four simple words: "Spirit Summoning Ritual."

A séance?!
These words were like a boulder weighing a thousand pounds, crashing into the lake of everyone's hearts, stirring up a monstrous wave.

"Mr. Adam, the 'spirit séance' you mentioned, could it be...?" Onoki's eyes widened, his mouth was dry and bitter, and his voice trembled involuntarily with a hint of fear.

Others, too, clearly associated the 'spirit séance' with a terrifying possibility.

"That's literally what it means."

Seeing the changing emotions in everyone's hearts, Uchiha Munezuki dropped another bombshell: "Once the spirit descent ritual is successful, the 'fallen creator' will be able to break the seal and descend upon the world once more."

Holy crap, that's really what it means!

Onoki nearly swore, his blood pressure soaring: "Mr. Adam, what would happen if a fallen creator descended?"

"It will probably be destroyed," Uchiha Muneki said casually, his words calm and indifferent, as if he didn't care about the world being destroyed as a result.

The word "destruction" is simple, yet it carries immense weight.

Xiao Nan clenched her fist and said in a low voice, "We must stop the Aurora Society. We cannot let them succeed!"

"Agree."

Onoki looked at the 'Red Spider Lily' and said in a deep voice, "I have no intention of letting a fallen creator destroy our world!"

"Agree."

White Fang's words were laced with a chilling killing intent.

Although he doesn't care about the world, he cares about Kakashi, so he must stop the Aurora Society!
At that moment, Orochimaru's gaze inadvertently fell upon the pure white cross standing behind 'Adam' in the Church of Bones.

Wait, wait, this image is a cross!
As Orochimaru gazed at the cross, a thunderbolt seemed to strike his mind, and his pupils suddenly contracted sharply.

A 'fallen' creator? A 'first' creator?
The cross, hanging upside down, the fall, the beginning, the truth. Countless thoughts swirled in my mind, exploding like a boiling thunderclap!
Orochimaru shuddered suddenly; he seemed to have guessed some of the 'truth'.

"That guy seems to have discovered something?"

Onoki was very perceptive and immediately noticed that 'Higanbana's' emotions had fluctuated drastically in a short period of time.

"Mr. Adam, please forgive my rudeness."

Orochimaru knew very well that if he asked that question, he would most likely die.

However, driven by his thirst for knowledge and desire to explore, he only wanted to know the truth of the world and explore the secrets behind the unknown. This feeling made him unable to stop, even though he knew he would die!
He gritted his teeth, mustered all his strength, and asked the question: "Is there some connection between the original creator and the fallen creator?"

Orochimaru, Konan, and Sakumo all turned their shocked gazes toward Orochimaru.

Is this guy out of his mind?

Although everyone had a suspicion in their hearts, asking it out loud would be tantamount to courting death!

clatter.
clatter.
clatter.
The bronze table was tapped, making a soft sound.

However, each sound was like a giant drum, pounding heavily on everyone's hearts, and an invisible sense of oppression, like a mountain, permeated the Church of Bones.

Onoki was incredibly annoyed, even blaming that audacious bastard who had really caused them so much trouble!

After a moment of suppressed silence, Uchiha Munetsuki slowly spoke, saying, "After the original creator was betrayed and fell into a deep slumber, two great wills were born from within him."

The thoughts of everyone seemed to drift along with his voice, soaring through the boundless waves, traversing endless time and space, and returning to the ancient legends.

"Two wills, each wielding different powers."

"One of the wills, containing the negative personalities of all living beings, is the embodiment of extreme emotions. So it went completely 'mad' and planned to devour the world created by the Creator, so that all things would return to 'one' and thus become the true, original Creator, who is both 'all' and 'one'!"

I understand. I understand everything.
Orochimaru suddenly realized that he finally knew the 'truth'.

Meanwhile, Onoki, standing nearby, wore an expression of 'I knew it'; his guess was correct.

'Adam' is one of the two great wills born from the body of the 'First Creator', a true deity.

In the church.

Everyone was shocked by the truth they had just learned, and from the fragmented information, they pieced together an astonishing fact.

However, before everyone could fully digest the information that 'Adam' was the original creator's will, Uchiha Munegetsu, who was sitting at the head of the table, dropped another bombshell!
"The reason I've gathered you all here is actually for another matter..."

Uchiha Munezuki lightly tapped the table with his index finger, instantly pulling everyone back to reality from their shock.

He lowered his gaze, his tone remarkably calm, and said, "The blasphemous tablet that records the 'Path of God'... has been born."
