The Era of Gods Chapter 412 – Chapter 412: Chapter 412 Bold and Crazy Idea

Chapter 412: Chapter 412 Bold and Crazy Idea

The reason he’s called a mysterious big shot is that this big shot with whom he was dealing was always shrouded in a layer of fog. Presumably due to some agreement, Commander Xie had not introduced him to War, and throughout the whole process, aside from exchanging greetings upon meeting, there was no additional communication.

War didn’t pay much attention to this Lin Xiao— who cares who he is, as long as the goods are genuine.

Next, under the guidance of this mysterious big shot, he toured the tiny Crystal Wall Universe.

The main plane of this universe was located at the center of the universe and was actually a bit smaller than a typical large plane. However, this plane was the largest in this Crystal Wall Universe and the center of the world, thus tentatively called the main plane. Besides this, there were seventeen other planes of varying sizes outside the main plane, and along the edge of the main plane’s Plane Crystal Wall, attached were hundreds of extremely small half-planes.

Perhaps due to having been managed by the mysterious big shot for some time, the main plane already had a large number of intelligent life forms. Apart from the native species of this world, a kind of Insects living underground, the dominant rulers of the main world were Humans who had migrated here.

This was very good.

Apart from Humans, there were no Other Races in the main plane, but in the other planes outside of the main plane, there lived Other Races—common Dwarves, Beastmen, Elves, along with a large number of Warcraft. Even Dragons were not scarce, all living within a small plane, totaling around a hundred in number.

In the main plane, since Humans were outsiders, they were in constant conflict with the native Insects living underground, remaining in equilibrium due to the intervention of the mysterious big shot, with neither side able to obliterate the other.

Lin Xiao understood this kind of behavior; he would have done the same if he was in their position.

Apart from having an adversary to keep the Humans’ growth in check, the main reason is that a Crystal Wall Universe needs an abundance of creatures and a complex ecosystem to grow stronger, which in turn can produce more Crystal Wall Origin.

The development of the Humans in this world revolved around the commonly seen Magic Technology. Boosted by the mysterious big shot, the progress of Magic Technology was not bad at all. Looking down from the Vault of Heaven, cities with a modern architectural style were scattered within the plane, with Magic Airships flying in the sky, and every gathering place of Mages featured dazzling beams of magical light shooting upward, resembling the strong magical structures akin to Mage Towers.

The elite army possessed powerful armaments equipped with Magic Cannons and Mage teams. The native Insect People underground were no match for them, but for now, the Humans had no way to deal with the Insects entrenched deep underground.

At this moment, the identity of the mysterious big shot in this world was that of a Creator God, who had been discreetly controlling the civilization’s development within this Crystal Wall Universe. If Lin Xiao traded with Him to acquire this universe, he could then decide whether to continue harvesting Power of Faith and Crystal Wall Origin from behind the scenes or to step forward and actively control the world’s historical progression.

Due to the restrictions of the mysterious big shot, there were no True Gods in this world yet; the path to Divine Enthronement had been blocked. The limit was Demigodhood, and these Demigods had already been controlled to become His subordinates, stabilizing the world.

If the trade was completed, with Lin Xiao’s strength, he would definitely be unable to suppress the world’s progression, and the restrictions on Divine Enthronement would surely be broken. Therefore, he must and could only step forward and actively monopolize faith.

After completing the trade, Lin Xiao would have the other party take away all the Demigods. The most powerful Legends still had some distance from Demigodhood, and he still had time to resolve this issue.

Moreover, Lin Xiao already had a permanent solution in mind.

This was a crazy idea that flashed through his mind after he saw the contents of the offer sheet.

Yes, this idea was quite mad, probably beyond anyone’s imagination.

He wouldn’t continue the mysterious big shot’s shepherding approach to steadily harvest faith as one might expect; instead…

His sights weren’t set on the faith and Crystal Wall Origin of this world but on devouring the entire Crystal Wall System.

That’s right, he planned to devour the entire Crystal Wall System.

After understanding the situation of this Crystal Wall, an uncontrollable thought arose within him: whether it would be possible to use the authority of the Lord of the Crystal Wall System and the nascent form of the Crystal Wall Will as a medium to slowly absorb this Crystal Wall’s Source Strength, Basic Underlying Laws, and the entire Crystal Wall with the Creation Magic Cube.

This crazy idea stemmed from the Crystal Wall Source Core Shell that had merged into his Soul. This Crystal Wall Shell’s former self ended up in such a plight because its Origin was devoured by the will of another universe. What would happen if he figured out a way to restore it completely?

The Crystal Wall Origin Core Shell was present here; the interior had already reconstructed the network of Basic Underlying Laws, indicating that this object could be retroactively repaired. This suggestion gave him that wild idea.

Gathering Source Strength slowly to repair it would be too slow. What would happen if he directly devoured an entire Crystal Wall System?

Perhaps this small Crystal Wall System wasn’t powerful enough; even if it were completely devoured, it likely wouldn’t be sufficient for a full restoration. However, it could at least recover a portion of its might.

Just think about it—even if only a fraction of its power was restored, it would be extremely terrifying. His own strength would also skyrocket to an unfathomable degree. It was a frightening yet eagerly anticipated prospect.

So, his method was simple: he would directly devour this Crystal Wall Universe.

As for the creatures within the universe, there was no need to worry. Devouring a Crystal Wall Universe was an extremely time-consuming engineering project, that would likely take hundreds to thousands of years even with the aid of the Creation Magic Cube—according to the comparison of time flow between this world and the Main World, he probably couldn’t finish this immense project even by the time he graduated from college.

During such a lengthy period, he would have enough time to conquer a plane in a Different Domain and relocate all the creatures from this plane to it.

As for whether this would result in the death of a large number of creatures, he couldn’t manage that.

As the saying goes, “A general’s success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers.” The birth of every True God is accompanied by death and slaughter, and on the road to plundering resources and strength, countless beings will die. Being able to move away the majority was already quite an accomplishment; there were instances where even crueler gods didn’t care at all and let everything fend for itself.

Before that, before the devouring of the Crystal Wall Origin had a huge impact on this world, there would probably be several hundred years; during this time, it was impossible to do nothing. Lin Xiao already had an idea. He planned to have his parents come over and replace him to unify the faith of all intelligent beings in this universe, to ascend to godhood in this world before the devouring of this Crystal Wall Universe.

Since the devouring would take hundreds or even thousands of years, he couldn’t waste the vast amount of Power of Faith during that time, nor could he stay here forever. It just so happened that his parents had not yet ascended to godhood.

As the saying goes, “When one man attains the Dao, his poultry and dogs ascend to heaven.” Although he hadn’t attained the Dao, he had at least made something of himself. His parents had been very good to him, especially his mother, who doted on him immensely. Helping his parents ascend to godhood was something he ought to do.

As for the other members of his Clan, let’s not talk about them for now. After his parents used the Power of Faith from the intelligence civilizations within the ten-plus planes of this Crystal Wall Universe to ascend to godhood, perhaps some could be shared if there was any to spare.

Having eaten the largest piece of meat, it wouldn’t hurt to share some of the broth and scraps.

Although most of his cousins weren’t very capable and couldn’t achieve much, they could at least maintain what was there.

In this era, there were basically two ways to establish a major force in the Main World: either establish a College or establish a Clan.

The requirements for smaller forces were not strict; they could be adventurer teams, conglomerates, or groups with like-minded individuals within large forces, and so on.

Establishing a College was very difficult, and Lin Xiao had no interest in it. Establishing a Clan, however, was easy. One simply needed to support fellow Clansmen casually.

Thinking this, Lin Xiao decided to go home once the transaction was complete and handed over. Since he didn’t even have to take the college entrance exam and it was also nearing the holidays, it was a good opportunity to discuss the matter with his parents and have them move here.

The transaction was witnessed by Commander Xie Tianyan. Together with Lin Xiao, they traveled through this Crystal Wall Universe, including the primary plane and the other seventeen various planes, as well as the Under World inhabited by Native Insect People, recording all of it before communicating with Gaia Will to transfer the rights to him.

The transaction went very smoothly. After all, the rights were his to begin with, and Gaia Will, having no independent will of its own, couldn’t and wouldn’t interfere, provided both parties agreed.

Moreover, with Commander Xie Tianyan witnessing the entire process, no one dared to make any false moves or engage in any underhanded tricks.

This mysterious benefactor could be a Super Divine Power not inferior to Commander Xie in strength, but in terms of power, he definitely couldn’t compare to a big shot in charge of a military region, and wouldn’t engage in petty tricks after obtaining what he needed.

After the completion of the transaction, Lin Xiao obtained a Chaotic Mud Board from the mysterious benefactor. This Divine Artifact, specially forged to mimic the Destiny Clay Tablet of the Toriel Multiverse, had the ability to control the still-unborn Crystal Wall consciousness of this universe. Possessing this artifact allowed him to control the world, suppressing any strong being born from this world.

Supreme God Ao of the Toriel Multiverse wielded the Destiny Clay Tablet with the terrifying potency to enthrone or strip the godhood of any deity with a single word. Even those with Powerful Divine Power couldn’t escape the stripping of their godhood, underlining its super terrifying might.

The intention of this mysterious benefactor in creating the Chaotic Mud Board was similar. If in the future this Crystal Wall Universe grew and plundered enough resources and Origin Strength to advance the world, he could use the power of ascension to step into the realm of Great Divine Power and have control over the gods within the world, just like Supreme God Ao of the Toriel Multiverse.

Now that the artifact was in Lin Xiao’s possession, he became the de facto ruler of the Crystal Wall Universe.

With the Chaotic Mud Board in hand, he could now exercise some of the rights of the Lord of the Crystal Wall System within the bounds of this Crystal Wall Universe, such as Divine Enthronement…

The prerequisite, however, was having enough Divine Power and Divinity to support it.

Lin Xiao spent five years in this Crystal Wall Universe, mostly getting to know the inner details of the world, receiving the strength and control over the super covert array outside the Crystal Wall left by the mysterious benefactor.

Although this Crystal Wall Universe was small, its value was quite high. Without the covert array to shield it, the universe would be exposed, and any passing mighty being could easily discover the anomalies of this universe by simply projecting a bit of consciousness inside.

As for the power left behind by the mysterious benefactor, it was actually the largest neutral organization in this world—the Mage Association, which could influence almost every non-major change within the plane.
