The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

Even though Gu Xu is currently in a deified state devoid of much human emotion.

Upon seeing this galactic brain, I still felt an overwhelming sense of physical discomfort.

The old heart in my chest beat more and more violently.

Hunger and rejection, two diametrically opposed emotions, were tearing him apart.

"How...how disgusting!"

This is Gu Xu's simplest thought at this moment.

The next moment, a data panel appeared in his field of vision.

[BOSS Name: Bilclay (False God)]

[Level: 80 (Calamity Lord)]

[HP: 2000000000/2000000000]

[Status: Active/Divine Authority/Immortal/Unattackable]

[Introduction: A god born after the fall of the Ancient Ones due to ??? He was once a fragment of the Ancient Ones' brain, but became a prison due to ??? ]

Before Gu Xu could react, another notification came to his ear!

[Ding! Core source material detected! Causality match: 100%!]

[Access restrictions have been lifted! Panel generation in progress...]

Lines of blood-red data, visible only to Gu Xu, pulsed wildly above that brain.

The handwriting was distorted, as if some living thing was wriggling.

【Name: The Brain of the Past (Incomplete/Core)】

[Rank: ??? (Not visible)]

[Status: Awakening/Yearning/Return]

[Introduction: It was once the wellspring of thought of that great being, shattered countless ages ago, and then... taken by... to become the cornerstone of this secret realm's rules. It has been waiting, waiting for that ancient ruler to devour it, and for it to once again face its destined end!]

"Is this... a puzzle piece of my body?"

Gu Xu frowned deeply as he looked at the two panels that had appeared in his line of sight.

Fragments of the Great Old Ones' brains?

Is this the ultimate secret hidden in the dark side of the Silver Moon Realm?

In other words, what is the second-stage task objective assigned by the system?

Kill the false god?

"But...why does all of this feel wrong?"

Gu Xu thought to himself.

The feeling is like suddenly one day, you're sure you've experienced this scene before, but you also clearly remember that it's the first time you've experienced it.

"call!"

Of course, Gu Xu was no longer able to think about these things at this moment.

His mind was filled with thoughts of devouring this thing.

However, when he was about to launch an attack, he was shocked to find that the status bar on the panel clearly displayed four words: "Unable to attack".

"What does this mean?"

In this world, even mythical beings with billions of health points, even the Finger of an Old God imbued with a high-dimensional aura, would have to obediently show their health bars and take the beating under the crushing weight of his Domain of Calamity.

This was the first time he had encountered such an absolute rule that could not be attacked.

"That's interesting..."

Gu Xu never believed in superstitions.

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and a thought suddenly struck him.

The dozen or so thick tentacles on his back straightened instantly, carrying a terrifying power that could tear space apart, and pierced straight towards the brain of the starry river that was suspended in mid-air.

These tentacles possessed the ultimate attack power he had in his divine state.

Even the Silver Moon Queen outside was repeatedly defeated by this move.

There was no explosion, nor the muffled sound of flesh being torn apart; instead, an extremely strange sensation traveled along the tentacles back to Gu Xu's nerves.

"this……"

Gu Xu's pupils contracted slightly.

He discovered that his tentacles made contact with that disgusting brain the moment they touched it.

It passed right through without any resistance.

That brain, filled with eyeballs and miniature galaxies, was like a holographic projection, a phantom without physical mass.

His terrifying power, capable of destroying mountains, struck empty air, leaving not even the slightest ripple on his opponent.

Those two billion life points didn't even lose a single drop of blood.

Gu Xu withdrew his tentacles, his expression turning extremely cold and hard.

Physical attacks are ineffective, and energy attacks with calamity rules are also ignored.

He stood still, the domain of calamity churning beneath his feet, trying to decipher the opponent's defense logic, but all he received was emptiness.

This thing called the Old Brain seems to exist in his dimension at all.

"What happened? The attack really failed?"

This was the first time Gu Xu had encountered such a situation since changing jobs.

In the brief moment when Gu Xu was pondering a solution, a deep, ancient thought, devoid of any emotional fluctuation, suddenly rang in his ears.

The sound didn't travel through the air; it exploded directly in the deepest part of his mind.

"O Lord of the past, I am you, and you are me!"

"Buzz~!"

The moment those words appeared, a loud explosion echoed in Gu Xu's mind.

The next moment, Gu Xu's vision suddenly changed dramatically.

All the scenery, including the gray sky, the strange rocks on the ground, the upside-down mountain peaks, and even the brain of the starry sky, lost its color in an instant and turned into pure black.

He felt his consciousness being forcibly detached from his body by some irresistible force.

As an observer with a God's-eye view, it floats in the endless darkness.

Immediately afterwards, scenes flashed wildly before his eyes like fast-forwarded film reels.

He saw himself eighteen years ago, born into this world full of crisis and alien races.

Watching those job changers soar through the air and traverse the earth on the streets of Tianqi City, a seed of becoming stronger was planted in my heart.

He trained day after day at school, honing his physical abilities, all for a good result at the job transfer ceremony.

The image then freezes on the awakening magic circle, its light dimming, and the entire scene falls silent.

Laughter and sighs echoed in his ears.

He walked off the stage dejectedly, and the moment he returned to the classroom and looked down at the career panel, the gears of fate began to turn wildly.

The words "Calamity, Lord of the Old Ones" in blood-red letters marked the beginning of his journey down this path of no return.

The scene continued to move rapidly.

Zhou Qianqian, Zhang Hao, and the other classmates were terrified the moment they summoned the ghost bride.

Principal Liu Zhenguo and homeroom teacher Zhou Yueyue's faces flashed with shock.

The dashing figures of Su Qiong and Jiang Shu from the God-Slaying Army appeared.

He boarded a helicopter and went to Longjing, where he was nurtured as a core seed and received unreserved resource support from the military.

Upon turning around, he entered the old corridor alone and gained the ability to devour for the first time.

He then returned to Beichuan City, single-handedly stormed the Red and White Demon Collision Secret Realm, rescued Lin Yuan, subdued the Styx Ghost Carriage, defeated the Ghost Mother, and devoured the fragments of the secret realm.

He obtained the Heart of the Past, powerfully supported the East Sea, and brutally defeated the top saints of the Sakura Kingdom.

This forced the demigod to compromise.

He stepped through the portal to the Silver Moon Realm, sweeping through and annihilating geniuses from all nations, until now, standing here, devouring the brain that belongs to him before him!
