Devil's Bible

Seeing this, everyone was shocked and couldn't remain calm.

"This is... silver?" Thirteen sensed the power and hesitated before uttering this familiar yet unfamiliar word.

“That’s right, it seems you still retain some memories.” Nemus nodded.

Thirteen, as the former god of water, was a later addition to the story, but he was born relatively early.

This is not surprising.

The four elemental gods have all been replaced once.

These four great gods were born with power approaching that of powerful gods.

If the world did not expand into the concept of world possibilities, then they would naturally become truly powerful divine forces.

As the foundation of the world, elements are the basis of all things, and the power they contain is immense.

In that position, even if you do nothing and don't even have a church, you can gain a lot of faith for no reason.

However, it is unclear whether it was a coincidence or something else.

As the world's possibilities expanded, the four elemental gods encountered unexpected events before they could even explore them.

They are either dead, lacking divinity, or severely injured and in a deep slumber.

That era was known as the Chaos of Elements.

After the elemental chaos ended, the power to shift the world's possibilities was basically divided up by a few truly powerful gods.

Other deities find it extremely difficult even to perceive the possibility of other worlds.

"After the Golden Age, there should have been a Silver Age, but problems arose."

"I was originally just an ordinary mythical species with the water attribute."

"I don't have a deep memory of that era, and then I came to the Chaos of Elements."

"I unexpectedly obtained a portion of the water elemental divine essence."

"Then, after struggling for countless years, the struggle finally ended, and I collected all the divine essence, becoming the new God of Water." Thirteen's eyes were misty as he recounted this experience, recalling the past from countless years ago.

After the elemental chaos, the four elemental gods were re-elected, and those who had awakened were also re-awakened.

Apart from the gods of earth and storm, neither water nor fire became powerful divine forces.

Upon hearing this, the people around were basically certain of one thing: the four elemental gods had all been set up.

Things can't be that coincidental.

Some people who have studied the four elements have discovered the key.

Among the four elements, water and fire represent different emphases on time.

Earth and wind represent different aspects of space.

The fact that Earth Wind was able to seize the opportunity and become a powerful divine force amidst the elemental chaos suggests that it wasn't just a matter of luck.

"I became the God of Water and ended the chaos of the elements. I thought it was my moment of glory, but now it seems more like a clown on stage after the established order has been set." Thirteen shook his head.

There are also great differences among the gods.

Especially between intermediate and powerful divine power.

The gap is so large that it can be despairing.

Lacking luck, strength, and talent, he ultimately became a god, yet it seemed he gained nothing.

With the world's possibilities extinguished, he had no power to struggle and could only degrade himself.

They couldn't even keep their mythical status and could only degenerate into saints.

But at this moment...

Thirteen clenched his fist, feeling streams of power converging towards him.

After breaking the numerical limit, he finally found a way out.

“If I have enough of this purifying and transforming power from the Philosopher’s Stone, then I might be able to return to the state of a Mythical Species,” Thirteen said earnestly, looking at Nemus.

Unlike the others, Thirteen was once a mythical being, but the situation in the End of the World at that time was too great even for a mythical being. He had to cut himself off; only by descending to the level of a saint could he survive.

Or rather, the gods, having severed themselves, were essentially unable to retain the essence of the mythological species.

"Once one becomes a god, the divine nature becomes closely integrated with one's own number."

"Therefore, during the cutting, the divine essence, because of its high 'weight,' will also take away most of the essential number of the mythical species."

"Now..." Thirteen's expression seemed a little strange.

Logically speaking, the position of mythical species should also be fixed.

Each mythical species has a unique number. Even if a species reproduces its pure bloodline through special means, it can only obtain a derivative number of the mythical species' number and become a mythical creature.

The mythical species of thirteen is a special phenomenon called Water Cloud Smoke, which is a number sequence of 369.

It represents the scene of water constantly evaporating and turning into clouds and smoke on the sea.

He originally did not possess any life qualities; he was the 49th deity of the sea. Due to the nature of life's creation, he propelled the water, clouds, and smoke to transform into life, thus becoming a mythical species.

In other words, the essence of the mythical species is tied to the number 369.

This essence was long ago lost in the End Land, and was destroyed along with the End Land.

In this new world of possibilities, the number 369 still exists.

If he returns to the ranks of the mythical species by relying on the Philosopher's Stone, will he re-condense the number 369, or will he condense a new number that is not among the preceding numbers?

There are precedents for this kind of thing.

For example, the Garuda that Nemus helped the Five-Tailed Bird create.

The roc is born with a golden seed, and the number of those born with a golden seed is mostly between the thousands and tens of thousands.

The number of the roc far exceeded this range, which means that the number came after the position.

Mythical species, however, are unsure of which set of rules they follow.

"If the number 369 is to be reassembled, then sin may occur." Nemus sensed the situation of Thirteen.

The other party's current state is very strange.

Within the other party's 'human body,' as the limits were broken, some new characteristics began to condense.

These new characteristics, in turn, promote the cohesion of numbers.

This is similar to the resurrection of mythical creatures, but it has a different core aspect.

Mythical creatures die and are resurrected, but their core number is taken away, and they are resurrected as mythical beings.

The revival of number 13, however, brought with it a kind of 'innovation', which led to the re-cohesion of numbers.

"Here's a suggestion: either start now and continue to 'innovate,' condensing your own mythological species into a new number."

"Or we can find an opportunity later to kill the current 369 mythical species."

"Otherwise, the existence of identical numbers would bring about a taboo against compatibility, thus giving rise to sin."

Nemus couldn't help but think of the sinful spirits he had encountered.

The taboos of those two sinful souls are "mutual consumption" and "fusion".

If the thirteen condenses to the same number, it will inevitably lead to errors in the numerical cosmology.

And error is taboo, and taboo is sin.

Thirteen nodded.

Regardless, it's always good to be able to return to the mythical realm.

Meanwhile, the other gods, saints, and golden beings were also gazing intently at the Philosopher Stone.

Breaking the gold limit was something they could never have dreamed of.

Even if most of them weren't originally mythical beings, and even if they broke through their limits, they still wouldn't become mythical beings, it would still be an immense opportunity. (End of Chapter)
