Cheng Erhe reached out and grabbed Castigia's wrist, saying, "I'll go."

"You go?"

"Yes, perhaps you are unaware, but my body has always been the vessel through which 'she' descended. And 'she' once instructed me that if we were to face a great calamity that even the Holy Land could not withstand, I should awaken her avatar and descend upon us!"

Cheng Erheli stepped into the air, his long, algae-green hair billowing in the air, and the Origin Mantra on his chest gleaming.

Boom!

An astonishing aura was released.

This is a sacred aura, the primordial aura of the birth and death of all things and the cycle of the world, pure and vast, clean and natural.

The moment the breath was released, the night sky, which had become pitch black due to the unusual movement and phenomena of the tree species, suddenly shone brightly, as bright as day, and the night instantly transformed into a clear sky without a single cloud.

'Cheng Erhe Li's' face remained unchanged, but his original temperament had been transformed into the unique noble, magnificent, and vast temperament of the Origin Goddess Petrified, making him exceptionally beautiful.

This change naturally attracted the attention of the three high-ranking gods, Jemongart, Therena, and Tegnia, who all turned to look at the Holy Land.

Immediately, they saw 'Cheng Erhe Li' casually take a step, traversing thousands of kilometers of space and time, and arrive in front of the three women.

“Petridides? You still have a clone here.”

Yemenggalo looked surprised, then laughed:

“That’s great, that’s what makes it interesting. If you really couldn’t do anything outside the world, I would have to look down on you.”

'Cheng Erheli' said calmly, 'Yemeng Jialuo, it's been many years, and you're still as mischievous as ever, wanting everything good you see.'

Camille, listening nearby, was puzzled: 'Strange, didn't Mother say before that the two supreme gods had been fighting outside the world for a long time? How come we haven't seen each other for so many years?'

"Naughty?"

Jormungandr chuckled: "Only you would say something like that. However, my ultimate source is already lifeless. If I don't act a little willful, how can I suppress the changes in the entire world?"

'Cheng Erhe Li' narrowed his emerald eyes slightly: "It seems you haven't figured things out yet. Leon Belron is one of my men. Did you see the Origin Spell on his chest?"

As she spoke, she casually waved her hand, and a light suddenly emanated from Leon's chest, revealing an extremely complex and mysterious character, clearly the Origin Spell.

Upon seeing this, Terena and Taginia's expressions darkened further.

Although the Origin Goddess only appeared as an avatar, the presence of the Origin Spell meant that even if Leon could protect her for a while, he couldn't protect her forever.

Although Terena had noticed the Origin Spell before, it was so well hidden that she saw traces of it but they were not obvious, so she was not sure of its strength.

But now that it's been activated, the Origin Spell on Leon's chest looks like it's basically the highest-level Origin Spell under the Goddess of Origin's command.

This also means that this spell is very difficult to exempt from or remove.

but!

This still won't make Terena back down!

She said coldly:

“Petridice, Leon is my fiancé, not your possession. Remove this curse mark from me!”

"I didn't expect you to act so quickly, planting the curse mark so early."

Yemeng Jialuo also narrowed her eyes:

“This time, my opinion is the same as Terena’s. You, quickly take back this curse mark! As long as you take it back, I can spare your clone.”

To everyone's surprise, 'Cheng Erheli' smiled instead of responding to Yemeng Jialuo's threat. His thin lips pursed slightly, then he raised them:

"A clone? Jormungandr, I didn't expect your senses to be so dull that you couldn't even recognize me?"

Upon hearing this, all the surrounding gods were slightly startled!

Lyon suddenly remembered that he had once suspected that Chengerheli was the original form of the Goddess of Origin, and wanted to open his eyes to observe more closely, but after thinking about it, he suppressed the impulse.

Upon hearing this, Yemenggalo frowned slightly, stared at 'Chengerheli' for a moment, and suddenly showed a look of surprise:

"It's you? How could you still exist?"

Chapter 551 Tagina: I Need Him

'Cheng Erhe Li' smiled slightly: 'I am also an immortal, why can't I continue to exist?'

Yemeng Jialu blinked: "I didn't expect that after doing all that, you could still recover. It seems you are truly favored by the world."

"You have no right to tell me that."

'Cheng Erhe Li' said:

"Alright, now that you know who I am, do you still have any questions about Leon's ownership?"

Terena spoke up: "Jemongalo, who exactly is she? Could she not be a clone of Petrified?"

Yemeng Jialu smiled and said, "That involves the secret between her and me. If you want to know, you'll have to find the answer yourself."

Her eyes have a strong sense of pressure, so even when she smiles, she gives people a feeling that she is not easy to approach.

However, although she answered Terena's question, she did not respond to 'Cheng Erheli's' question, 'Do you have any more doubts?' She remained smiling, her thoughts unfathomable.

Terena frowned and simply activated the authority of the Holy Land she possessed, probing into the River of Time to quickly observe.

Although she had not studied the divination techniques that were still immature in this era, she was proficient in the authority of the civilization system, skilled in divination, and extremely familiar with the River of Light. She could forcefully deduce the result by relying on her brainpower, which was several times stronger than that of others of the same level.

After observing the flow of time for a while, her eyes suddenly flickered, revealing a hint of doubt:

"From the moment you descended upon Chengerheli, the beginning and the end of the river of time simultaneously resonated with the primordial energy..."

The Primordial Qi, simply put, is the fusion of the Origin Qi and the End Qi.

Of course, this is a reversal of cause and effect. According to Terena's understanding, the primordial energy is the original source of the world's creation.

First there was the primordial energy, which then differentiated, giving rise to the origin energy and the end energy.

The two continued to expand until the world was born, which in turn gave birth to the two supreme beings, the Goddess of Origin and the Goddess of the End, as well as their corresponding forbidden zones, the Land of Origin and the Land of the End.

If the activities of 'Cheng Erhe Li' could resonate with the primordial energy at the end and beginning of the river of time...

One possibility is that Petrified broke through the limitations of the Origin Land and ascended to a higher realm, so her descendant body could resonate with the Primordial Qi, which is a level higher than the Origin Qi and the End Qi.

Possibility two: It is said that no Lord of the Forbidden Zone has ever been born in the River of Time, but is it possible that a Lord of Time has actually been born? Is it just that only Jormungandr and Petelides know the inside story?

Possibility three: Since both the Origin and the End gave birth to forbidden zones of creation, is there a forbidden zone like the First Land? Is there a corresponding First God?

Terena pondered as various possibilities flashed through her mind.

Beside him, 'Cheng Erheli' glanced at Terena in surprise, then nodded approvingly:

"Not bad. Among the Lords of the Forbidden Zone, you may not be as skilled as Aurahande in terms of mastery of time and space, but in terms of the analysis of knowledge, you should be number one. It is undeniable that the changes in those primordial energies are indeed related to me."

Upon hearing this, Tagina was slightly shocked. She hadn't expected that Terena's recovery was not just a simple matter; her mastery of spacetime and her ability to analyze knowledge were also much higher than before.

At least she herself could not detect the primordial energy.

Or rather, it's impossible to trace back to the beginning and end of the river of time like Terena did.

To achieve this, in addition to a strong grasp of spacetime, one also needs a strong ability to analyze knowledge.

After all, the beginning and end of the river of time are the same place, and this place is no longer a physical form, but a special node that is infinitely close to nothingness, yet densely filled with spacetime information.

The usual methods simply cannot observe the changes at the beginning and end of the river of time.

Although Taginia couldn't observe the primordial energy like Terena, she understood something else and murmured, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is."

No one else knew what Tagina was thinking, but after Tagina whispered those words, her aura changed again, rising upwards as if breaking through some of the restrictions that had suppressed her recovery.

The others also noticed Taginia's change and had their own thoughts.

Jormungandr then showed interest: "Tagnia, it seems you've been doing quite a lot behind my back too. Your strength has improved so quickly."

Tagina opened her eyes and said, “Your Majesty, no matter how much my strength improves, I will always be your sword. Therefore, I hope that you will give me Leon Belron in recognition of my loyalty. I really need him. If that is not possible, I will ask that the other promises Your Majesty made to me be fulfilled.”

Her determination surprised the others as well.

Jormungandr blinked: "So insistent? If that's the case, I might reconsider."

'Cheng Erheli' narrowed his eyes slightly: "Taginia, you'd better think this through."

"You've got the premise wrong."

Terena spoke at the same time, her voice cold and clear: "Whatever your purpose is, I will not give in. Either you will bear the full power of my life."

Although the goddesses all made their own pronouncements, none of them took the initiative.

Lyon, standing to the side, still kept his eyes closed.

He was actually on the verge of transformation at this point.

What he didn't expect was that his transformation only strengthened the Goddess of the End's determination to take him, and even the Goddess of Origin descended upon Cheng Erheli.

Therefore, he was secretly slowing down his transformation speed, lest he become the fuse for a great battle between the four terrifying beings once he completed his transformation.

He could sense that the reason the high-ranking goddesses hadn't made a move was because they wanted to wait until he had completed his transformation.

Therefore, he is now suppressing the speed of transformation as much as possible, and is quickly thinking about how to break the deadlock.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't matter who takes her away.

However, considering that while the methods Terena used to subdue him were known, it was unknown how the other three would treat him after subduing him. Therefore, he was more inclined to run away with Terena.

However, running away is probably not the best solution. It's better to take the opportunity to figure out what will happen after they take you down, so that you can choose to play both sides effectively.

Suddenly, he noticed the data on the control panel was being reorganized. A sudden inspiration struck him, and he abruptly opened his eyes and spoke:

"Goddesses, could you please hear a few words from me, the person directly involved? Judging from the situation, it seems you all want me. Although your reasons for wanting me differ, I suppose I, a mere mortal, might be able to help you in some way. In that case, could you please consider my personal opinion? I can also see that you all want to avoid direct combat as much as possible, lest it cause turmoil in the world and trigger some unpredictable calamities, isn't that right?"

"Good."

Before the others could speak, Jormungandr smiled:

"I like people with such awareness as you. Tell me, what are your thoughts?"

Chapter 552 Advancement Summary

After Yemenggalo, 'Chengerheli' also nodded slightly to Leon and said, "Alright, then tell me your thoughts."

Although Therena had her objections, she thought about it and remained silent, only tightening her grip on Leon's left hand.

Leon cleared his throat and first looked at Yemenggalo:

"Before this, may I ask if Your Majesty's sudden appearance was related to my triggering of the world's imbalance law?"

"That's right," said Yemenggalo.

Leon then looked at Taginia: "Your Excellency, may I ask why you need me? Forgive my frankness, but it seems that Your Excellency did not initially consider me a target."

This gave him the opportunity to carefully examine Taginia's appearance.

Overall, she is a tall woman who is a little over 1.9 meters tall, slightly shorter than the 2-meter-tall 'Cheng Erhe Li'. Among the many goddess heroines that Leon knows, she is among the top three tallest (the tallest is Petelides, followed by Cheng Erhe Li, then Tegnia and Shitikos, Camille Ophimaso, etc.).

She has long, two-tone purple-red hair, horns on her head, and lightning-like purple-blue pupils. Her features vaguely resemble the future little loli Tanya, except that this mature version has sharper eyebrows and eyes, a slightly thinner face, thin lips and a pointed chin, and an overall temperament that has a fierce feeling of having been through many battles.

Wearing a bright red armor that exposed her shoulders and belly, her chest was full and well-developed, with firm and bulging muscles. Her skin was much fairer than Camille's, a healthy milky white. She had an excellent figure, a body that was both powerful and graceful, quite rare even among goddesses.

She is naturally beautiful and has a wilder side than Camille.

But from some of her tone just now, Leon could sense that Tagina's personality was clearly gentler than Camille's.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is a misconception due to a lack of understanding.

Considering the similar facial features of TAG Henney and Taecyeon, perhaps these two people also have some commonalities in their personalities?

For example, will Taeya be more clingy and bolder in the future?

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Leon also heard Tagina's reply.

"I didn't originally intend to say so much."

Her strong, resonant voice came through:

"But since the situation has become so complicated, I'll just briefly state my purpose to avoid you arguing with me."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze towards him.

They were both aware of their own objectives, yet they were also curious whether the other possessed information different from their own.
