Monsters: Evolving from Titans to Ancient Gods.

Although beliefs and legends about Him have never ceased in the universe, He has never shown any sign of appearing.

Therefore, even Geed was only making an attempt, and did not have high expectations of whether he would receive a response from Him.

He had also heard many stories on this planet about humans seeking power and dynastic rulers coming here to worship in order to gain recognition.

But very few people have successfully received a response from Him, and in the last thousand years, no one has ever received one.

But this time, the call for sacrifices and a grand ceremony was answered.

A rift opened without warning, and chaotic energy dissipated. All living things on the planet seemed to be frozen in time, remaining in the same position as a moment ago, like lifelike, colorful statues.

Under Riku Asakura's gaze, the planet emitted a faint light, and the mountains and rivers responded in a faint manner.

Chaotic energy intertwined, weaving into a gigantic eye as large as a mountain before Asakura Riku's eyes, with chaotic colors surging and the narrow vertical pupil resembling a chasm in an abyss.

The deity residing in another dimension answered the summons and descended, his indifferent gaze fixed on Asakura Riku.

"The one favored by the Great One... the warrior of the Star Torch... the son of Belial... the rising star of the Land of Light..." A faint whisper echoed in Asakura Riku's mind.

Asakura Riku looked up and stared at the vertical pupil in front of him, his eyes becoming somewhat dazed. In that instant, he saw something deeper.

In that narrow abyss, the boundless ocean rippled gently, a vibrant garden floated slowly, and a being whose true form was obscured sat on a throne, shrouded in a chaotic mist.

"... "

Gradually, Asakura Riku came to his senses. Looking at the vertical pupil, he didn't know how to address it for a moment, but recalling the titles of his elders, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Senior Ryu-bo, the universe is facing another crisis, and we need your help!"

As the voice faded, Asakura Riku clearly saw the enormous eye in the sky flicker slightly, then undergo a subtle change, as if it had become even more lively.

He looked at the distant starry sky, his gaze piercing through the Milky Way in an instant, and saw the war taking place on a distant astronomical scale.

A moment later, His answer echoed in Xiao Lu's mind. Although it was still indifferent, it was less mechanical: "You came without permission."

"Huh?" Xiao Lu was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head, as if he didn't understand why this was being brought up, but still nodded: "That's right."

"I remembered your legend while on a mission, leading refugees into the galaxy, so..."

In response, the voice emanating from the vertical pupils, which resembled the cracks of an abyss, echoed once again in Lu's mind.

"You have the ability to defeat the Gua Legion before the situation deteriorates to the point where I need to intervene."

Longbo was not unaware of the war taking place in the void of the Asgard constellation, but the situation of this war was different from the last one.

The trio of the Gua Empire have only recently recovered, and the power of the people of the Land of Light has increased over the past few thousand years, making them strong enough to resolve this crisis.

It was precisely for this reason that Gao Lai'an, who was also involved in the war, did not ask Long Bo for help.

“But…” Xiao Lu was taken aback upon hearing this, but still looked resolutely at Long Bo’s projection and said, “That would take a very long time. During this period, many civilizations would definitely be affected by the war and suffer hardships that they should not have to endure. If the war could be resolved quickly, the casualties of civilizations would not be so severe.”

He was not unaware that the Land of Light was now very strong and capable of defeating the Gua Legion, but this would take a lot of time, and the scale of the war might even expand and affect other places.

As someone who had suffered such hardship, he would not want to see such a thing happen to those civilizations again, if possible.

Longbo stared at Xiaolu without speaking. His will traversed vast astronomical distances, awakening the slumbering fungal monsters near the constellation of Asclepius and opening a spacetime portal to send them onto the battlefield.

After doing all this, Longbo looked at Xiaolu through the projection and whispered, "For the sake of you being the only warrior of Star Torch, I grant your request."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lu became excited and bowed to Uncle Long to express his gratitude, saying, "I am truly grateful!"

"I hope you will not fail to live up to the light of the star."

After leaving behind these words, Longbo's projection finally disintegrated into the most primordial chaotic energy, flowing back into the other dimension and departing.

As He departed, the Earth's light faded, and the entire planet returned to normal. The creatures that had just returned to normal were completely unaware of what had just happened.

Riku breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled, raised his transformation device to revert to his giant form, launched the Ultra Sign, and informed the Land of Light of this rare good news.

"... "

Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and with the arrival of the fungal monster on the battlefield, the tide of battle turned at that moment.

Thousands of years later, many warriors of the Land of Light heard the familiar WAAAGH again!

A tidal wave of monsters surged forth, constructing efficient war machines from various kinds of garbage and attacking the army of the Gua Empire.

The wild tactics and extremely unreasonable weapons baffled the Civilization Alliance.

They had seen fungal monsters lurking on various planets before, but at this moment, they truly witnessed the terror of a vast number of fungal monsters.

The army of the Gua Empire was unable to resist when faced with a force several times larger than its own. The massive legion was disintegrated and surrounded and annihilated by the fungal monsters and the allied forces.

The elite forces from the Land of Light and the warriors of the Andrew Guard finally found an opportunity to break into the core area of ​​the Gua Empire.

Finally, after Zoffy, the strongest warrior of the Land of Light, gathered the light from all the planets in the universe, he used the most powerful M78 Beam to end the resurrected Gua Empire in one blow.

...

Around 1300 AD, in another dimension.

Since his conversation with Xiao Lu, Long Bo has broken free from the state of dormancy of his own will and has begun to observe the changes in the universe and the earth once again.

During this time, He would often create life-bearing planets in His Garden and use His power to accelerate their time evolution to the stage of giving birth to intelligent civilizations. Then He would throw these planets from another dimension into the cosmos.

This is to fill the void left by life-bearing planets.

Strictly speaking, this is not of much benefit to Longbo, but unfortunately, he is quite bored now. For thousands of years, no new tasks have been issued on the panel, so he created a planet and threw it into the universe to pass the time.

Of course, doing so also helps Him improve His own abilities, and now Longbo has no shortage of time.

Just as Longbo was engrossed in creating planets, an interesting scene flashed before his eyes.

That was the scene as seen through the eyes of someone who had received their own blessing in this era.

What comes into view is a samurai from an island nation, wearing Kazuya armor, holding a samurai sword, and with a rather dark and rough face.

A man named Zuo Qianhu stood atop the giant beast that had been split in two, holding a long sword. He looked down at the man from the island nation in the distance, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Who are you?"

On the edge of the fragmented forest, a samurai from an island nation watched as the man, who was faintly radiating golden light, sheathed his weapon and replied with a smile, "My name is Nishikita Kojuro Iryu, and I come from a distant island nation."

"You can also call me Jingtian Jinglong."

"I just saw the monster heading towards the village, so I drew my sword to help, but I didn't expect to find a master like you here."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Qianhu's brows not only did not relax, but instead became even more serious: "Island nation? I have heard that the Korean Peninsula is often attacked by island nation pirates. Now they have extended their reach to the Central Plains?"

The samurai was taken aback, then shook his head and retorted, "No, I come from an even more distant island nation."

"Further?" Zuo Qianhu was puzzled, because he could tell that the man was not lying.

Kojuro Nishiki nodded and replied meaningfully, "That's right, it's countless times farther away from here than from where the sun is."

"... "

The two ultimately didn't fight, but instead sat down beside the monster's corpse and began to talk. During their conversation, they exchanged some information.

Zuo Qianhu was originally the strongest general in the imperial court of this era. His martial prowess was often compared to that of the ancient overlords. He had once killed several giant demons that were causing chaos in the Central Plains, but this also aroused the emperor's suspicion.

The emperor believed that his martial prowess would become a threat to imperial power, so he dispatched a large army to surround and kill him.

Left Commander was very disappointed, but he did not vent his anger on his soldiers. He broke through the encirclement alone and left the court.

After that, he drifted to the top of Mount Tai, where he received a blessing from the mythical God, becoming even more powerful. From then on, he traveled throughout the Central Plains to slay demons and monsters.

Iida Iryu's background is similar to that of Sasengoku. He was a samurai during the Sengoku period of Japan and was known for his great strength. He killed many famous monsters and giant beasts in Japan.

One day, he woke up in an unfamiliar place. At first, he didn't think much of it, but when he returned to his hometown and found that no one recognized him, he realized the seriousness of the situation.

As such events occurred more and more frequently, Ida Ryu gradually came to understand that he would leave his original world and go to another world every once in a while.

And this time he appeared here because of a similar reason.

In the alternate dimension, Longbo followed Zuo Qianhu's gaze to the samurai in front of him, and he had an answer in his heart.

Iida Ryu, the strongest human of the Arcane type.

He has single-handedly killed many famous monsters, his record is filled with the Chronicles of Peace and Prosperity, and his presence can be found in many Ultraman universes, and they are suspected to be the same individual.

Compared to him, Zuo Qianhu, who had been blessed by Long Bo, was still somewhat lacking, both in terms of battle record and combat strength.

It can only be said that Zuo Qianhu still has room for growth.

While Longbo was pondering, Zuo Qianhu and Jingtian Jinglong continued their conversation.

Jingtian Jinglong was somewhat interested in the blessing mentioned by Zuo Qianhu, because in his impression, many evil gods and the like loved to play that game.

He worried that Zuo Qianhu was being deceived by an evil god.

However, this doubt quickly dissipated after Zuo Qianhu revealed the source of the blessing.

"Oh~ it's the blessing of that god!" Jing Tianjinglong suddenly realized. He had naturally heard the legend of that god from Earth and had even worshipped Him.

“Since it’s a blessing from that god, then there’s no problem.” Iida Ryu thought to himself, and then continued his conversation with Zuo Qianhu.

Through Zuo Qianhu's words, Jing Tianjinglong learned that besides Zuo Qianhu himself, many other people in this world had received blessings from God.

Yu the Great of ancient Central China, sages of the Spring and Autumn Period, Saint George of other continents, and so on…

In addition, Zuo Qianhu also sensed from the blessing that history was recording previous eras, and that there were also people in the starry sky who were blessed by God.

However, it seems that God's blessings are based on interests and temperament; some people, no matter how outstanding they are as rulers or warriors, will not receive blessings.

Some people can be blessed even if they are very weak.

Jing Tianjinglong was very interested in these people he had never heard of before. If they were all as strong as Zuo Qianhu, he would really like to meet them…

...

The Lantern Festival in 1508 AD.

Longbo, in a projected pose, sat behind the golden ship, strolling along the edge of Hangzhou at night.

Colorful fireworks shot into the night sky, exploding with a deafening roar. Their colors vanished in an instant, illuminating the brightly lit city and revealing a bustling scene.

The roaring sound was mixed with laughter and cheerful chatter, which reached Longbo and the Golden Ship's ears clearly.

The golden ship's eight iron hooves rose and fell, the violent roar and tremors drowned out by the explosions and fireworks that filled the city.

Even the slightest tremor was limited to a radius of a hundred meters around the iron hoof by the immense force, and the dented hoofprints were instantly repaired without leaving any trace.

Longbo, who had not been seen on Earth for a long time, gazed at the fireworks blooming in the distance and felt a sense of emotion.

"Is it already the 16th century?"

The long-awaited fireworks reminded Longbo of his past modern life. The modern world he had once dreamed of was now only a few hundred years away from him.

However, Longbo, who was nearly ten thousand years old, no longer had the urgency he had when he first transmigrated; in fact, he could be said to be completely indifferent.
