Chapter 989: The Middle Strategy and Engraving
"Let's go catch the Blood-Haired Maiden, and then we'll dive into the mortal world?"
Upon hearing the "best strategy" proposed by Dong Ya, the gods of the Extermination King's Assembly couldn't help but exchange glances, their faces betraying their discomfort.
"There's still the Cleanup Bureau in the mortal world!"
"If we, as true deities, return to the mortal world, we can indeed avoid the Gluttony Deity. But what if we're like a group of mice willingly walking into a cat's den? Don't you think the Twelve Huangdao Jiding are just sitting around doing nothing?"
Dong Ya, despite possessing the truth of Calamity Avoidance, which allows him to almost perfectly avoid the Gluttony Deity, seems to have developed a fear of it. He's so focused on avoiding the Gluttony Deity that he doesn't care about anything else.
"How about... you tell us about the second-best plan?"
"What? My plan isn't good enough?"
"... "
It might be a good plan for you, but it's completely unsuitable for us!
After a period of awkward silence, the elderly woman wearing the Mihou mask had no choice but to step forward again, trying to respond as tactfully as possible:
"It's not a matter of whether your plan is good or bad. It's just that it's... well, it's quite rare."
"Never mind, no need to explain."
Seeing the resistance in the expressions of the other true deities, Dong Ya couldn't help but click his tongue in annoyance. He then extended his hand towards Bai She.
"Then there's only one more plan left... Serpent Director, give me your authority!"
...
It's over.
Following Lyon's heart, they tumbled down from the Ascent to Divinity. Looking up, they saw that the ceiling had suddenly transformed into a starry sky, and those 'stars' that were curiously gazing down at them. The Serpent Director couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It's truly over.
I didn't expect the issue to arise after all that. The Gluttony Deity's talent is truly exceptional. They've climbed two hundred and fifty steps on the Ascent to Divinity in one go, unexpectedly exposing their identity. What should we do now?
Just as the Serpent Director began to worry, Lyon, who had fallen from the Ascent to Divinity, quickly adjusted his body and then... plopped into a pool of dark golden mud.
What the hell is this?
Struggling to free himself from the muck, Lyon swam to the edge of the pool. He couldn't help but reach back and touch the dark golden mud, but he received no prompt.
With his body covered in dark golden mud, Lyon frowned as he stepped onto the shore. To his surprise, he found that the area was filled with numerous strange pools of mud, each with a unique color and size.
The smallest mud pool was only about the size of a round table. An ordinary person could easily step over it, making it more of a small pit.
The largest mud pool was the dark golden, crescent-shaped one behind Lyon. The distance between the two ends of the crescent was so vast that it would take a good two steps to cross.
"Don't just stand there."
Seeing Lyon staring at the dark golden mud pool behind him, the Serpent Director sighed and explained,
"That should be the handprint of the Black Sun Deity. Its body is about the same size as the Bai He Cheng, and it has twenty-two pairs of hoof-like toes under its belly. So what you're seeing isn't a mud pool but the Black Sun Deity's handprint left on the mud board."
A handprint?
Lyon was slightly taken aback by this revelation.
"So, the ground we're standing on is actually that mud board?"
"Yes."
Looking at the ground, which was, in reality, a vast plain of dark purple, the Serpent Director sighed and explained,
"The rules of the mortal world are very special. Extremely large physical bodies find it challenging to exist in the mortal world, but it's different in other dimensions. That's why many true deities have enormous physiques."
