Chapter 11: Tracing the Origin (I)

The canonization of Satan and Yonir was completely expected by Sui Xiong. Vertex updates the fastest

Needless to say, the preparations over the years, especially the final defeat of the ancient god's will that had not yet completely dissipated, and providing him with the strength to take the crucial step, were completed by Sui Xiong himself. And although the latter is usually inconspicuous, in fact, the background is very profound, just looking at its ability to manage the swamp into an independent world in the ash forest, you know that its power is actually very strong, and the realm has gone beyond the level of demigods, and the swamp has a vague feeling of the kingdom of God.

The "Bone Devourer" Yonir is almost one of the strongest creatures in the main plane, and the reason why it is only a strange beast, not even a demigod powerhouse, is mainly because of its inferior intelligence.

In this world, of course, there are gods with real low intelligence, but generally speaking, if you want to become a demigod, or even a true god, it is better to be wiser. Even if it's not a high-IQ group, at least it's better not to be mentally retarded. Even if you are mentally handicapped, at least you have to be at the level of a child, and if you are really stupid enough to be about the same as a slime or something, then there is really not much hope.

Yonier had suffered from low intelligence before, and he was already strong enough, but he was never able to really integrate his powers, so that his power was scattered and disorganized, and he turned into a giant soft monster in fact, with its power form, it should have turned into a giant talent.

This time, Satan wants to purify the entire ash forest, and naturally passes the anger with several bigwigs in the ash forest. The Snow Elephant King has no problem with this, but it doesn't want to be purified as well, and it's cautious by nature and unwilling to take any risks. So it chose to go to the depths of the Barren Mountains and leave the range of the Purification Circle to avoid accidents. Yonir decided to stay where he was, trying to use the power of the purification circle to help him sort out his strength and see if he could get some gains.

It turned out to be the right choice.

With the help of the purification circle, it dispels the negative energy in its body, retrieves the wisdom that a demigod powerhouse should have, and then combs his strength, adjusts his form, and turns into a mud giant standing in the swamp.

Not only that, but after transforming into a mud giant, Yonir quickly used up the power of faith he had accumulated for a long time and earned himself the position of "Guardian of the Green Swamp".

The so-called turquoise swamp is naturally the big swamp where it is located. This swamp is what it created and what it guards, and it is only natural that it will be a god as the creator and guardian of this land.

Although the level of this priesthood is a bit low, barely rubbing to the edge of "weak divine power", it is on par with those strange priesthoods such as the "God of the Builder of the Red Dragon Treasure Room" in the Dragon Clan, but after all, it is still a true god.

The true God is eternal and immortal, and even if he falls, he can be reborn from the faith.

Especially a god like Yonir, who is mainly based on nature and supplemented by faith, unless he dies and makes some big news, otherwise, even if he is destroyed along with the green swamp, as long as this side of the world is still there, if this place becomes a swamp again in the future, he can still be resurrected from this swamp.

Of course, if there is a god who is far above the godhead to destroy this piece of priesthood, or if there is a god with a conflict with the godhood to absorb the divinity, it is really a complete fall of the natural gods who have fallen since ancient times, and most of them have died like this.

Satan's choice is similar to that of Yonir, although he can become a god of faith by virtue of his achievements in spells or the achievements of the magic schools of the Northwest Republic, but after careful consideration, he still decides to become a god of nature.

Whenever given a choice, most mages choose to become nature gods.

Compared to believing in gods, the disadvantage of nature gods is that their strength increases more slowly, and the advantage is that they are more free and do not fall easily. And for mages, as long as they have an endless lifespan, the rest of the matter is not a big deal.

If you don't have enough strength, just improve slowly.

If you don't have enough knowledge, just accumulate it slowly.

In contrast, it is dangerous and foolish to bind oneself to faith in order to gain strength quickly.

From man to god, it is not only an increase in strength, but also a change in life form. Humans are complex and diverse creatures, but God is much more pure. Once a god has established a priesthood, he will be influenced by his own priesthood not to be bound, but to change his mind. For example, a god who uses fire as her priesthood, even if she doesn't hate water, and is even good at water-based spells, as long as she chooses this priesthood, she is considered insulated from water.

One of the four ancient gods, the original god of the fire element, was killed by trying to unify water and fire, and exploded into a large fireball.

The gods of nature are relatively less restrictive in this regard, while the belief in gods is more restrictive. They are not only changed by the priesthood, but also influenced and bound by the beliefs of believersIf believers generally believe that a practice is right, then even if God himself does not think so, it will slowly be influenced and infected by faith over time, and eventually change his own opinion.

The late previous generation of the goddess of the sea is such a negative example. The goddess who was originally brave and good at fighting and commanding all the tribes of the sea, after unifying the beliefs of the coastal sea tribes, was gradually influenced by their beliefs, and finally became an evil god who hated the land races and frequently launched sea tribe invasions.

The eventual fall is also directly related to this.

Throughout the ages, there have been too many gods who have been bound by faith and eventually fallen into madness and even fallen.

So despite the troubles, the need for more time and energy to prepare, and even more dangerous, Satan still chooses the path of God of Nature.

To this end, he had to go deeper and simpler, reduce the number of meetings with people, and at the same time use the state apparatus to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible, so that it would not be easy for the Mage Association and even others to notice him, so as to avoid accumulating too much faith power in his body.

Over the years, he has worked very hard.

But in the end, it turned out that his hard work was worth it.

The "God of Purification" is not only a god of nature, but also a good priesthood. Taking it as their mission to purify the unnaturally formed "Jedi" and protect the reproduction of living beings, such a priesthood will obviously be friendly and supported by the vast majority of gods.

And the world is so big, there are always a lot of places that need to be purified waiting to be purified one by one, and every time you purify, you can get a little reward from the origin of the world and the gratitude of all beings, and in the long future that can be expected, the godhead will definitely continue to progress, from weak divine power to weak divine power, probably no problem.

Such a priesthood is exactly what Satan wants.
