Chapter 771: The Secret of the Pillar God and the Name of Truth
So, what Crow said was actually true? Fighting for his life against five Zodiac Bureau Chiefs in the Earth's core? Him?!
Although the members of the Carnage King Society doubted this absurd outcome, the woman wearing the sheep mask possessed a small amount of Truth ability. Since her ability remained quiet, it was enough to prove that Crow wasn't lying.
This was indeed... quite unexpected.
Although they didn't know the idiom "Three Days Apart," Crow's highly convincing achievements made the members of the Carnage King Society look at him with newfound respect.
This guy, who wasn't very reliable in the past and held two first-rate abilities but was only considered a third-rate True God, seemed to have accomplished something extraordinary. Through this, he had ascended to the position of a Pillar God.
A Pillar God!
Looking at Crow, who was disheveled from head to toe, his clothes covered in ash and burn marks, yet exuding an imposing aura, the members of the Carnage King Society couldn't help but feel a deep sense of envy.
The gap between a Pillar God and an ordinary True God was not merely a matter of strength. There were more fundamental transformations, and the most crucial among them was the change in their "survival" ability.
Although ordinary True Gods were also known as immortal and indestructible, they could still face their end if eroded by more powerful abilities, replaced by True Gods with the same ability, or if the ability they hosted lost its significance.
Even the once-powerful Black Sun God, who had occupied half of the Black Sun abilities and was so strong that even the Pillar Gods had to retreat, directly devolved from the renowned 'Doomsday' to a small black sun spirit after the Purification Bureau cleansed the sun, turning it from black to white. In the end, he was taken away by some unknown evil god.
The Pillar Gods, despite being limited by their own abilities and perhaps not even superior in absolute power to the Black Sun God, had become a part of the world's rules as 'Pillars of the World.' As long as the world existed, they could not be completely killed.
Even the Purification Bureau, as powerful as they were, when dealing with the Supreme Four Pillar Gods, could only 'cleanse' their memories and perceptions, transforming the new Supreme Four Pillar Gods into completely different beings, thus 'killing' them in a roundabout way.
However, even the 'old' Four Pillar Gods who had been cleansed were not entirely dead. They were merely lost in the past, and there was always a possibility that they could return, reunite with the 'new' Four Pillar Gods, and resurrect once again...
In summary, only the Pillar Gods, who had become the Pillars of the World, were truly immortal and indestructible 'True' Gods!
...
"Congratulations."
The man in the main seat, wearing the White Snake Mask, nodded in acknowledgment towards Crow and said,
"Crow, congratulations on becoming the society's... Pillar God. On behalf of... ... and the other Lords, I offer my congratulations on your advancement..."
As if something strange had swallowed his words, several awkward gaps appeared in the White Snake Masked Man's speech. Unaware of this, he finished his polite words and smiled, asking,
"Crow, would you mind sharing the Name of Truth that was engraved in the world when you became the Pillar of the World?"
The Name of Truth...
Upon hearing the White Snake Masked Man's question, Crow's expression froze slightly, and a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes.
The Name of Truth was a concept where, when a True God crossed the threshold to become a Pillar God, they would forcefully write a 'Truth' into the world through their understanding of their own ability and the strongest desire in their heart at that moment. The world would then provide feedback.
For example, among the Supreme Four Pillar Gods who had an ongoing feud with the Purification Bureau, the Old King and the All Things Cicada were Names of Truth, representing the specific 'Truths' they had written into the world.
As the name suggests, the Old King's Truth, as written into the world, is to become the sole master of the past, while the Cicada's Truth is to instantly comprehend the principles of all things during the interval of a cicada's song.
As for my own "Truth" name...
"An Zai Hui Bi..."
"What?"
The sound coming from the Crow's mouth was so subtle that even with the True God-level hearing of the White Snake Masked Man, he couldn't quite catch what the Crow was saying. He asked with confusion:
"Sorry, I didn't catch that. Could you please repeat it?"
"..."
My Truth name is An Zai Hui Bi!
The moment I crossed the threshold and became a Pillar God, all I could think about was getting away from him earlier. After merging my Fen Luan and E Nian powers, this damnable result was written into the world's truth!
Now the world has acknowledged the truth I desired, determining that I can perfectly avoid the calamity brought by Leon and timely escape the chaos and disasters he creates! Even if he destroys the entire world, I'll still survive!
I'll survive, damn it! Fck!
Although I really want to speak out the situation honestly, the meaning behind this Truth name is too embarrassing. The response just now, lighter than a mosquito's buzz, had already exhausted all the courage the Crow had mustered.
Seeing the Crow's lips move slightly, the White Snake Masked Man, puzzled by the sudden shift in mood, frowned. However, considering that the Crow was a newly ascended Pillar God, he didn't say anything. Instead, he nodded indifferently and sat back down.
While Pillar Gods are indeed remarkable, not all of them are equally impressive. The reason the Four Supreme Pillar Gods are called "Supreme" is that the "Truth" they control is unimaginably powerful.
You, Crow, have become a Pillar God, but if you didn't inscribe an exceptional enough Truth, you're just an unkillable True God. You're still far from the two true monsters in the Carnage King Society.
Based on what you've revealed, you might be able to suppress an ordinary Zodiac Bureau Chief at best. If you encounter one of the top-ranked Twelve Directors or a special case like the Crimson Hair Maiden, you'll still end up getting beaten.
After signaling for everyone's attention with two loud claps, the White Snake Masked Man on the main seat glanced at the Crow and said expressionlessly:
"If you wish to keep it confidential, I won't be able to help you. Please go to the fragmented plane where the Code is stored and personally engrave your true name yourself!
Additionally, although the Crow has successfully advanced to a Pillar God, his mission with the Snow Miser failed to completely sever the royal bloodline of the Northern Kingdom.
Therefore, for insurance, the plans for the Maiden Kingdom and the Thousand Sails Sea Kingdom must succeed simultaneously... Black Cat, Deer."
After calling out these two names, the White Snake Masked Man asked:
"How is your progress? Approximately how much longer before you can complete your tasks?"
When he spoke, he paused slightly and glanced in the Crow's direction before continuing:
"If the Purification Bureau finishes up in the North and sends Leon to support your local Zodiac Bureau, will the two of you be able to handle him?"
