Chapter 596: The Test of the Old Gods

A month later.

A total of 12 Interstellar Battleships flew in from the sky.

An electronic voice came from the Battleship Fleet:

"General, we’re about to arrive at the battlefield"

A deep voice sounded, "Very good. Everyone, prepare for battle. This place has become the legendary battlefield of slaughter."

"Brave warriors, remember, this is the time to sacrifice everything for our master"

"Master will definitely be above, watching your battle!"

"We’re going to ..."

Before the voice even finished, streaks of blinding light appeared from the ground, piercing through the sky towards the Battleship Fleet.

"Disembark!" the General roared.

Light barriers appeared on all the Battleships, protecting them as they swooped down.

Another battle began.

On the ground ...

On the other side.

On a mountain a few hundred miles away from the battlefield.

Liu Ping squatted on the ground, took a snack from the pixie in the green dress, threw it into his mouth "Are there really no other Lords of Nightmares?"

"Yes, I heard that everyone who can come is here."

The pixie in the green dress looked at him with a look of admiration.

Although the hide-and-seek competition had always been popular among the pixies, it had never been held to such a grand extent.

This was no longer a festival for the pixies.

This had crossed the boundaries of race, becoming a super competition that concerned the past and future, the safety of all living beings in the infinite worlds!

All of this was thanks to this man in front of her.

This was a man who was born to create a grand spectacle!

"Seems like this is all the participants, let’s just let them hide and look for each other" Liu Ping said.

"Alright, are you going to hide as well? I have an exclusive interview with the Daily Pixie, do you want to answer it? "the pixie in the green dress asked.

Liu Ping stood up, stretched "Let’s talk about it when I get back, I’m going to do something else."

The pixie in the green dress was stunned, then quickly waved her hand: "Wait, wait! Are you going to forfeit the competition? "

"Of course not, I’m going to find a place to hide, after all, this is an unprecedented competition!" Liu Ping said vehemently.

"I see, then I’ll interview you after the competition." the pixie in the green dress sighed in relief.

"Alright."

Liu Ping smiled, then disappeared in front of the pixie in the green dress.

He slowly advanced through the countless illusions until he arrived at a remote location. Suddenly, his figure flashed and he flew into the sky, gradually arriving at the edge of the world.

"You want to leave this place?" Mother Earth asked in surprise.

"Yes. Anyway, no one will know that I left," Liu Ping said.

"The four great Laws, why would they let you go?" the Goddess of Death asked.

"As the Lords of Nightmares, they must make a reasonable connection between this blank history and the future. Regardless of whether I’m here or not, things will continue to develop like this until two thousand years later," Liu Ping said.

God also chimed in, "As for Liu Ping, the Lord of Nightmares he’s playing will be the vanguard two thousand years later to attack the Purgatory and the Divine Pillar of Eternal Night. There are so many powerful Lords of Nightmares. What right does he have to appear?"

"Because I’m not here, I can be the vanguard. This is the most reasonable explanation," Liu Ping said.

"In that case, the Four Great Laws won’t make things difficult for you, but how can you leave? The rules of the Pixies’ competition don’t allow it! "Mother Earth was confused.

Liu Ping didn’t answer and lightly leapt forward.

A line of burning words appeared in the void of space: [You’ve reached the edge of the arena. If you cross this point, you’ll be considered to have given up on the competition. The Pixies will immediately notice]

Liu Ping took out the seal that belonged to the Pixies and pressed it hard in the void of space.

In an instant, lines of small, burning words appeared:

[You’ve used the seal of the Pixies]

[The rules of the current competition’s edge will be exclusively explained by the handsome young man, Liu Ping]

Liu Ping coughed softly and said, "Because I introduced a large group of contestants when there were only three contestants left in the competition, I had to wait until there were only three contestants left in the competition before I came back to continue the competition."

[The above is a secret clause that only the person involved can know]

A small hidden door silently appeared in the void of space.

This was the special passage under the secret clause.

"It’s established." God praised.

Liu Ping put away the seal and flew out of the sky, turning back to take a look.

The ruined world.

It was once again filled with active life forms.

Humans, Demons, Star Elves, Elementals, Giants, Elves ... countless races had come to this world.

They represented the various Lords of Nightmares, searching and fighting.

Searching meant searching for the other Lords of Nightmares.

Fighting meant killing the subordinates of the other Lords of Nightmares to expand their territory.

In short ...

Chaotic battles began one after another.

Smoke filled the sky, and explosions could be heard everywhere. If there were no accidents ...

Until Liu Ping returned two thousand years later, the battles would still continue.

As for those Lords of Nightmares ...

He couldn’t even equip a single Nightmare’s Embrace, let alone kill them.

"The next time I return ... I hope it’ll be different."

Liu Ping’s gaze became deep, his body moved and disappeared from the sky.

...

In an unknown world.

It was as if a great battle had just occurred here, the entire city looked quite desolate.

There were very few people on the streets.

A cold wind blew.

Under the night sky.

Liu Ping lightly landed in the human world.

He sensed the atmosphere around him, then walked towards a large building.

It was a bar.

Through the glass window, he could see bright orange lights inside, as well as neatly arranged wine bottles of various colors.

Perhaps it was too cold, or perhaps it was the wrong time, but in short, there were only a few people in the bar.

Liu Ping pushed the door open and entered.

The bell rang.

A waitress stood behind the bar, lowered her head and wiped the wine glasses.

"Welcome!"

Liu Ping walked straight to the bar and sat down, saying, "I’ll have your signature drink."

"Alright, please wait a moment."

"Also, I’ll buy this old gentleman a drink."

"Ah, alright."

Liu Ping turned his head and looked at the old man beside him.

He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, was well-dressed, and had a gentle expression. He was reading the newspaper in his hand.

"Young man, an old man like me who has one foot in the grave is not worthy of a drink from you," the old man said with a smile.

"You don’t have to belittle yourself," Liu Ping said.

He placed a piece of paper in front of the old man.

The old man picked it up and read in a low voice, "At the edge of the stars, in that place on the verge of collapse, there’s someone you want to get to know. If you don’t open your heart, it might lead to countless misunderstandings and battles, so face it with sincerity, this is the only way."

After reading, he played with the letter and said, "What kind of spell is this?"

"Sermon, this is a divination power born from the fusion of ’Divine’ and ’Creation’" Liu Ping said.

"What do you want from me?" the old man asked.

"I want to fight against nightmares," Liu Ping said.

The old man’s brows relaxed, but he shook his head and said, "A mortal fighting against nightmares will not end well."

At this moment, the wine was served.

"A toast to you," Liu Ping raised his glass.

"Thank you," the old man raised his glass and clinked it with him.

The two of them finished it in one gulp.

Liu Ping put down his glass, equipped the title "Sovereign of Sin", and said, "I’ll be frank. I’ve already killed one Lord of Nightmares, and I’ll kill more in the future."

The old man was stunned, then slowly raised his head and glanced at the top of his head.

"This title is really rare, I’ve never seen it before," he said.

"The title shouldn’t be fake, it represents our words and deeds, and is a medal recognized by the Laws. I’m only doing this to let you understand me better," Liu Ping said.

The old man lowered his head and said, "But my era has already ended, my set has already been thoroughly studied by them, and I’m already no longer a threat to them, I can only struggle at death’s door, do you understand?"

"In the beginning, we’ve all been like this," Liu Ping said.

He raised his hand and showed the old man the rings on his hand.

The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "The broken earth and the weakened Death, oh, and a dead Creator ... So you want to form the Four Saint Pillars, that way you can wear their armor."

"If we work together, we can definitely defeat them," Liu Ping said.

"But when the time comes, how will you be different from them?" the old man asked.

"I don’t eat souls," Liu Ping said.

"Every being who wears the Embrace of Nightmares says so, but when they become a world, they don’t want to give up this method of obtaining power, after all, eating humans is the simplest and most direct way to become stronger," the old man said.

"I won’t eat humans," Liu Ping shook his head and said.

"Humans are the greediest, your nature hides endless greed, if you turn from a living being to a world, you’ll eat us too," the old man said.

"That won’t happen, I’m still confident about that," Liu Ping smiled.

"I’m a first-generation Deity, and in my long life, I’ve seen too many Combatants who immediately abandoned themselves after becoming a World-class life form, becoming incomparably powerful from then on, and no one has ever been able to deal with them." the old man said.

"I want to kill all the Lords of Nightmares, so this is a path I have to take," Liu Ping said.

The old man hesitated for a moment, then looked up at his title and said, "Try it. If you can pass the next test, I’ll help you. After all, your title is really a headache, if I don’t help you, the Law of Causality will bring me trouble."

"This title is really rare, even I’m seeing it for the first time."

He couldn’t help but sigh.

Liu Ping looked up at the title above his head.

[Sovereign of Sin]

[Title effect 1: All sentient living beings and Gods will sense your great power, and contribute to you in order to obtain their own merits and evolution, otherwise, they will be punished by Causality]

Against living beings and Gods, this title was indeed quite powerful.

"What kind of test is it?" Liu Ping asked.

The old man lightly pulled a card from the void of space and placed it on the counter.

Liu Ping looked at the card, only to see a boundless dark universe depicted on the card, with a blue planet constantly orbiting around a star.

Lines of burning text appeared in the void of space:

[World Body]

[Illusion Card, one of the Ancient God deck]

[Using it will turn you into a world, you will possess all the characteristics and senses of a world]

[This is a test, if you fail, this Ancient God will immediately leave, no longer having any hope for you]
