As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

If it becomes even stronger, it would be tantamount to fighting against the entire world.

Outer Gods cannot contend with the world. The world contains countless rules, and any single rule is actually Sequence 4, layered and interlocked. Even Outer Gods at the level of Great Lords cannot withstand that kind of pressure.

But now, conforming to the rules and even eroding them will not invite suppression.

The five outer god tentacles are not real tentacles, but represent the power of the outer god. The power of the outer god is extremely dense, and it does not expand rapidly, but emits a slowly writhing outer god power.

Of course, this peristalsis is extremely fast.

This world imitated the mysterious rules of the Outer Gods, thus raising its limits and integrating the Outer Gods' rules into itself. In turn, the Outer Gods became familiar with this world by imitating its rules.

Five Outer Gods are searching for the inhabitants of this world.

Those short-lived, meteor-like civilizations, if they open the mysterious gate, can unleash unimaginable and astonishing potential, and the world itself will support their growth. This stage will not last more than a few years and needs to be nipped in the bud.

Without prior arrangement, the five Outer Gods began to calculate the location of the people of the world.

Then, their Outer God power covered a region, creating a forbidden zone.

This forbidden zone refers to a highly exclusive realm, entirely constructed by the rules of the Outer Gods, and is extremely special.

It rejects all laws and is supremely self-reliant. The environment inside the forbidden zone is extremely extreme, and unless one is a superhuman who has followed this path, it is impossible for a human to survive inside.

Seeing the effects of the Lord of Desolation's power, the winds of desolation blew from the depths of space, extinguishing and decaying many meteorites and stars, turning them into a pale expanse. In the end, even space itself decayed, teetering on the brink of collapse, with more spatial folds, as if it were about to rot away.

The Lord of the Wasteland is humanoid, pale all over, without facial features or sexual characteristics, like an albino. But its size is extremely vast, with half of its body inserted into the stars, surging with an extremely dense power of wasteland that can decay all things.

In that space, under this erosion, many strangely shaped creatures gradually emerged.

They were also completely pale, like skeletons, and that pale color had a bony feel to it, as if they were living beings made entirely of bones without flesh and blood.

They were roughly humanoid, but their structure was incomplete and they looked very strange. Compared to well-proportioned humans, they were like defective products. They varied in size and stood up from that desolate universe. Then they emitted extremely piercing screams. The vacuum environment could not stop them. The decaying celestial bodies turned into dust directly in the screams.

Many deities showed expressions of horror.

Because those bone life forms that came into existence from nothing were all extraordinary beings. Sequence 9 to Sequence 7 were all in this stage. A few bone life forms even possessed the strength of the peak of Sequence 7. They were born different from others, as if they were about to transform into Sequence 6 at any time.

Those are the retinue of the Lord of the Wasteland, beings born within His own domain of rules.

The Lord of the Wasteland created these minions not to corrupt the world, but to place them in the lands of the World's inhabitants and slaughter them all.

Conversely, if humans kill the retinue of the Lord of the Waste, they can obtain the mysterious seed from the path through which the Lord of the Waste resides, and gain the power of the Waste that can destroy all things.

It wasn't just Him.

Other Outer Gods are also creating their own minions. The minions of the Lord of Destruction were born in a black hole-like cosmic space where all matter collapsed.

The form of the Lord of Destruction is invisible; He is destruction itself, without a fixed appearance.

His retinue is like some kind of crystal, with extremely irregular shapes, large and small, constantly pulsating in the universe.

The third Source Lord has an amber-colored appearance and exudes vast energy fluctuations.

Its retinue consists of energy life forms born from endless source energy. They vary in form, some are long and narrow, some have six arms and four legs, and some have eyes on their foreheads. They resemble humans, but are by no means human.

But what shocked these gods the most were the last two Outer Gods.

They emanated an aura of chaos and madness, and one could hear their endless murmurs, like whispers or prayers, filling one with despair.

In their forbidden realm, which is like an illusory ocean, one cocoon-like object after another emerges.

Those cocoon-like structures burst open, and out emerged one demon after another!

Tendou Kagura watched as the five Outer Gods distorted space, about to send their own retinues into Earth.

He pointed ahead and said to the gods with extreme indifference, "It's your turn! Slaughter all their followers."

Survival itself is the most powerful resistance against absurdity: Chapter Seventeen: Your Life Is About to End

The gods stared at the Heavenly Dao Divine Music with extreme fear.

They were carried across the starry sky to this place, only to fight against the shadows of the past.

Each of those companions exuded power fluctuations; a few were Sequence 7, some were Sequence 8, and most were Sequence 9 extraordinary beings. These were all low-level extraordinary beings, so they were very easy to create.

Furthermore, as time went by, those relatives gradually grew stronger and stabilized.

Their numbers were not many at first, but they increased more and more over time. Various kinds of relatives were born and nurtured in the domain like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Soon they broke through three digits and the number was still rising rapidly. Then they broke through the four-digit mark and headed straight for five digits.

Sequence 3 Outer Gods are unique. This level can create their own followers based on their own rules. These followers are real life forms, intelligent beings, not inanimate objects.

Outer gods must endow them with true spirituality; otherwise, they can only be considered puppets, not followers.

However, within the world, this ability is suppressed.

Therefore, these followers are finite, not infinite, and they also require the consumption of their own Outer God power, which is extremely high.

If the power of the Outer Gods is exhausted, or destroyed, they will permanently lose the coordinates of that world and will only be able to continue wandering in the void.

Depending on the strength of the Outer God, the intensity of the Outer God's power provided varies, thus the upper limit of the strength and the number of Familiars that can be created also differ.

These five Outer Gods before us do not possess extraordinary strength, and their speed in creating familiars is merely average.

These five special spaces, the Outer God's Nest, seem to possess the expansion and contraction of life itself. The dense Outer God power repels other rules, suppressing them to the limit, evolving into extreme special environments that are only applicable to themselves.

This environment itself is like a transcendent and enormous living organism, breathing through its mouth and nose, and beating with its heart.

What made the gods even more uneasy was that they saw life forms similar to demons in the shadows of the past. These creatures were filled with chaos and madness, and were in a daze. Ordinary people could suffer severe mental damage just by witnessing them.

This astonishing discovery left the gods deeply unsettled.

Why could something like a demon be born from the shadows of the past?

Kagura Tendou noticed it when she was in outer space.

He spoke again: "Go, and realize your value!"

These extremely cold words were like a death warrant. The gods finally realized that the guy in front of them was a madman. He had gone to so much trouble not to make them cannon fodder, but to make them jump off the cliff and die.

"There's no way we can defeat the Shadow of the Old Ones. Even if we give it our all, we won't be able to make a difference!" A powerful deity stared at Kagura Tendou with extreme terror, cursing the bastard a hundred times over in his mind.

"That is an enemy that only the gods can fight!"

Kagura Tendou calmly said, "You don't need to fight against the Outer Gods; you just need to kill their retinues."

Even if the Outer God level is suppressed to Sequence 4, it is still not something that these gods, whose highest level is only Sequence 7, can deal with.

However, the Outer Gods cannot intervene when creating their followers unless they stop creating followers.

This is also a kind of rule constraint.

Moreover, the Sequence 4 of the Outer Gods is different from the Sequence 4 of the World's People.

Their power cannot be replenished from within the world; they can only rely on the cracks in the world to allow the outer gods to continuously input their power from the entities outside the world.

But once they enter the interior of the world, this connection of transmitting power becomes very difficult to sever.

"That's forbidden territory. If we set foot there, death will be our only fate!" a deity said through gritted teeth.

Its spirituality frantically warned against stepping into the area where the Shadow of the Old Ones resided, or it would surely suffer a great calamity, just as if a human were exposed to outer space or drowned, the outcome would be self-evident. Although gods are all extraordinary beings, at most they can only endure for a little longer.

The retinue that Tendou Kagura spoke of was located within those forbidden areas.

"They will come out. Families must adapt to the rules of the world, otherwise they cannot survive in this environment. Moreover, outside gods cannot teleport them within the domain..." Tendou Kagura whispered.

As soon as he finished speaking, those stable, fully formed followers finally stepped out of the Outer Gods' domain.

The Outer Gods' realm is, to them, an existence akin to the ovaries of life.

They are newborn lives, just like newborn babies or chicks hatching from their shells. When they are suddenly exposed to an unfamiliar environment, they need to adapt and require a period of adjustment, during which their strength may decline.

Some family members, unable to adapt to the rules of the world, even die after struggling for a moment in space.

Overall, most of the family members survived and adapted to their new environment in no time.

The space around the retinue was distorting, as the five Outer Gods were about to teleport them to Earth.

boom!

Boom boom boom!!!

With a series of explosions, Tendou Kagura, holding the meteorite, forcibly severed the five spatial passages. The followers were directly shaken down, but a few were swept into the spatial rifts and disappeared without a trace.

Immediately, all five outer gods turned their gazes toward them.

Only then did they notice that a group of tiny life forms had appeared before them, led by a more powerful life form.

Are they the people of the world?

Not like!

Somewhat strange.

Of the five Outer Gods, only the two nameless Outer Gods who exuded an aura of madness understood the origins of this group of gods.

Because they all come from the same source, and are all offspring of the great Lord.

The other three Outer Gods noticed that the stronger life form was the same one that had blocked them in outer space.

The self-destruction of that descendant caused them considerable trouble.

And now, is he starting to block them from the world again?

The resistance of the world's people goes without saying, but his power should have vanished with that self-destruction.

As non-Sequence 4 citizens of the world, even if their status remains, it is impossible for them to regroup in a short period of time; they will require a long period of recovery.

But now, he has clearly returned to his peak.

Why is this?

The five Outer Gods: "..."

As beings governed by rules and devoid of emotion, they exist on a completely transcendent level. No matter how many doubts they may have, it will not hinder their actions.

Tendou Kagura: "..."

He remained silent for a moment, then once again sensed that overwhelming sense of oppression emanating from the five Outer Gods.

It was as if there were five towering mountains in front of us, blocking out the sun and allowing us to see only their shadows.

Tendou Kagura said to the gods, "Go, your value lies in dying here."

As he said this, a slight emotion flickered in his eyes.

He wanted to save the world, not from the perspective of a savior.
