Chapter 1852 Paving the Way!
"No wonder I felt like so much time had passed before. Misjudging that the goddess of fortune had descended was the most dangerous situation."
"It turns out my perception of time was completely messed up..."
Once she came to her senses, Pan Xiaoxiao regained her normal vision, stared at the stone-skinned man's mouth as he counted down in the distance, and began to retreat with difficulty.
At the same time, he also used his mental power to remind everyone in the arena to be careful.
Ao Zhan and the others were already focused on the conversation between Taotie and Changshengtian. Hearing Pan Xiaoxiao's reminder, they became even more wary of Taotie, who might turn against them at any moment.
Matilda, who had already sensed something was amiss, nudged her blond male lover beside her and said urgently:
"The impact of the goddess of fortune's descent earlier wasn't even that dangerous; things will definitely be much more dangerous later!"
"You retreat first, and wait for my orders in a safe place!"
“But Madam…” Little Erfo looked at Matilda with a worried expression, clearly wanting to say something more.
But before he could speak, he was forcefully interrupted:
"Little Erfu!"
"I've already lost an old flame today, I don't want to lose you too!"
"Leave Earth and find the King of the Howling Winds!"
"The Formless Divine Lord should be there too; it's relatively safer there..."
"Go now!!"
After saying that, Matilda pushed with her tentacles, sending Alford flying several meters away.
Although Xiao Erfu was reluctant, he knew that the current situation did not allow him to continue to act recklessly.
He uttered the words, "Madam, please be careful!" and then swiftly soared into the air.
The Earth has long been sealed off by the black fog of eternal night, allowing entry but not exit.
Apart from chosen beings like Mo Xing, who possess spatial authority and can come and go freely, no one else can leave using teleportation devices.
Therefore, Xiao Erfu planned to first increase his altitude to leave the area shrouded in black mist, and then use the teleportation crystal to leave.
In the face of an exceptionally chaotic battlefield, this small action is utterly insignificant.
But just as Xiao Erfu was about to leave the battlefield, an accident occurred!
The Star Race warriors who had been teleported to Earth and were surrounding the battlefield rushed forward when they saw someone trying to leave, seemingly unwilling to let anyone go.
Little Erfu, of course, would not sit idly by and wait for his death.
He accelerated, his short sword flashing wildly in his hand!
But even the strongest fists can't fight off four hands, and even the fiercest tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves.
After managing to kill four or five Star Eternity warriors, his speed in breaking out of the encirclement slowed down significantly.
If Matilda hadn't discovered this in time and used her authority to form giant tentacles, forcibly dispersing the Star Race warriors who had gathered into a wall, Little Erfo might not have been able to break through and leave Earth successfully.
However, this also means that the fragile facade between the Neptune Starfield and the Nexus Starfield has been completely torn apart, and they have irrevocably entered into a confrontation!
However, Matilda, the former ruler of the Neptune region, didn't care.
The current overlord of the Nexus Starfield, Changshengtian, no longer has the opportunity to interfere.
The situation is like a flood after a dam bursts—it's out of control!
White thorns gleaming with a holy light;
A terrifying rift opened up in the sky;
A distorting force field enveloping the entire battlefield;
Dense demonic energy, pervasive black mist,
And the 'Traces of Time' that can only be glimpsed through the spiritual vision;
Everything is intertwined and influences each other.
Everyone has their own goals to address and things they urgently want to resolve.
Whether directly or indirectly, the connections link everything together, creating a chaotic farce.
At the very center of the farce stood the ugly dwarf, his body engulfed in black flames.
"Eternal Heaven, haven't you had enough of playing the trick of making me recognize a thief as my mother?"
“When I was little, you told me to be on good terms with Lady Luck and not to hate her…”
"Now that I'm all grown up, you're starting to lie to me and say that this bitch is my mother?"
"Are you getting more and more backward as you get older?!"
Chang Shengtian's lips trembled, and his face showed bitterness.
The black flames spreading across the chest wound did not extinguish; instead, they spread further, eroding life.
Lady Luck did not lend a helping hand to him.
The initial surprise and confusion on her face had largely disappeared.
At this moment, he simply stared indifferently ahead, at the Eternal Heaven blocking his way, and at the Taotie, whose killing intent was boiling in the distance.
"I...I have no reason to lie to you before I die..." Chang Shengtian uttered a whispered sentence through his erratic breathing:
"Dark Eclipse Heaven! My child... what do you think enabled you to grow to your current position?"
"Exceptional talent?"
"Or is it a rare opportunity?!"
"The reason you've had such a smooth journey is entirely because your mother paved the way for you!!"
"Pave the road?" Taotie smirked, looking at Changshengtian as if he were a madman.
After a long pause, he chuckled and shook his head:
"You've gone mad. Just step aside and wait to die."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't mind killing you before I kill this bitch!"
The Eternal Heaven was speechless upon hearing this.
But the goddess behind him spoke up:
"What your father said is true..."
"If you hadn't broken that memory crystal just now, you would probably already know the truth about what happened back then."
The two short sentences, with their obscure and difficult pronunciation, clearly use ancient esoteric script.
On the battlefield, those chosen ones like Ao Zhan and Kaido, who hadn't mastered the ancient secret texts, couldn't understand what the goddess in blue was saying at all.
Even Pan Xiaoxiao, who had mastered the ancient secret texts, only had a superficial understanding of them.
Only by combining the subtle changes in the Taotie's facial expressions can the whole truth be deduced.
But Matilda heard each word clearly and understood its meaning perfectly.
She looked around, her gaze sweeping over the bewildered faces.
A sudden realization resolved a question that had lingered in her mind for many years.
"Because it is related to the Creed of Ascension to Godhood, the rules are forcibly kept secret using ancient cryptic texts..."
"Because I witnessed the ascension ceremony of the Goddess of Fortune three hundred years ago, I became connected with her. This is outside the scope of the rules' confidentiality, which is why I was able to understand..."
However, once one question was answered, a new one immediately arose.
"Then why couldn't Corleone understand a single word when Balgon and I discussed Li Yun's challenge to the Demon King Qin?"
"Didn't the Demon King Qin die on the Demon Battle Platform in the end? He didn't even manage to ascend to the throne of gods..."
"Even if you don't become a god, will your information be blocked by the rules?"
"Among those involved in the incident back then, there were also Sun Ying and Lu Li, whose soul was divided and entered Li Yun's body... Could it be them?"
"But they both died, and neither of them became gods."
"Wait... if the divided soul dies and the main soul becomes a god, might it also trigger the rules that block information?"
Thinking of this, a smile suddenly appeared on Matilda's solemn face:
"My sweetheart, you really didn't disappoint me..."
