Upon hearing Knowledge Daniel's words, Inner God Daniel's expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of relief.

"So, you mean I should go and seize it? But putting aside my pride, there doesn't seem to be any God Rank Skill scrolls among the top 5 in the world just yet!" Inner God Daniel said with a hint of doubt in his voice.

Knowledge Daniel gently shook his head, a deeper meaning showing on his face.

"Of course not. If you rely on brute force, you won't get anywhere. But think of it this way: can't you just create a fake one?"

"Perhaps, if you forge a God Rank Skill scroll, you might be able to fool the ascension task?" Knowledge Daniel's words carried a persuasive charm.

At this moment, Inner God Daniel's face became utterly confused. He hadn't even considered this possibility in his mind.

On the other hand, Knowledge Daniel continued speaking, guiding him step by step.

"If you're willing to cooperate with me, I can share this knowledge with you. You should understand, for you, this is your only chance to become a god."

At this point, Inner God Daniel found himself at a loss for any other alternatives. After hearing Knowledge Daniel's analysis, he suddenly realized that the path ahead had only one option.

Indeed, he was dealing with the God of Knowledge, a dangerously cunning figure. Though he had guarded himself against this idea, Knowledge Daniel had still successfully convinced him.

In the Mental World, Land of Origin

At this moment, the human race had reached an unprecedented level, attaining the status of a moon rank species. Numerous human awakeners were rapidly leveling up. Looking at the entire human race, not only were there many at the Fake God rank, but even those at the Demigod rank were becoming increasingly common. Some of the top human experts were even approaching the threshold of the Demigod rank.

At this time, two full hours had passed since the war at the Banishment Lands began. During these two hours, Daniel had been tirelessly collecting materials as much as possible. After all, creating a top-five God Rank Skill required consuming a vast amount of materials. Whether it was rare or common materials, the quantities needed were astronomical.

Even though Daniel possessed nearly all the God Rank Skill cores across multiple world lines, he still found himself struggling with resources.

While collecting the materials, Daniel also began to filter the God Rank Skills he intended to synthesize. The top five God Rank Skills were all incredibly powerful, but Daniel had to select the most appropriate one based on his current materials.

After some careful thought and mental deduction, Daniel finally made a decision.

[Infinite Distance]

Effect 1: Any material maintains an infinite distance from you. No matter how close it gets, it can never truly touch you.

Effect 2: You can apply Infinite Distance anywhere, including skill effects or special effects (with some exceptions for certain skills).

Synthesis Requirements: 1 billion Plane Seeds, 9.99 million Fake God Souls, God Rank Skill (Distance Shift), God Rank Skill (Distance Restriction)…

Upon seeing this long list of materials, Daniel couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

However, the reality was, this was the easiest God Rank Skill to synthesize at the moment. And the effect was crucial. In a sense, it could render enemy skills completely ineffective. Although this didn't completely erase the skills in the literal sense, it created an infinite distance between the skill release and its intended effect. Ultimately, the result was practically the same—it could negate the effectiveness of God Rank Skills.

Nevertheless, Daniel noticed a warning in the description: Certain skills are excluded.

Daniel didn't quite understand what "certain skills" referred to. Then, he suddenly realized that the section on "Certain Skills" could be clicked.

He raised his finger and lightly tapped the panel before him. A moment later, a strange expression appeared on his face.

So… "Certain Skills" actually referred to the top-ranked God Rank Skill?

Seeing this, Daniel let out a deep sigh of relief. He had been worried that [Infinite Distance] wouldn't meet his needs. But now it seemed that his concerns were entirely unfounded.

As long as he synthesized [Infinite Distance], his battle against Inner God Daniel would essentially be invincible.

With that thought, Daniel felt that all the sacrifices he had made so far were entirely worth it.

He then began using [Destruction Blade] to create planes and destroy planes, continuously generating Plane Seeds. This process felt quite special to him, as it had been a long time since he'd engaged in resource farming.

As the clones were summoned and [Destruction Blade] stacked with [Phantom Slash], the number of Plane Seeds skyrocketed at an unimaginable speed. Daniel's inventory was rapidly filling with materials.

However, his main body did not join the farming effort. Instead, he kept a vigilant eye on [Infinite Possibility], aware that Inner God Daniel might show up at any moment.

At this moment, things had reached a critical point, and Daniel knew he had to remain extremely cautious.

He had also promised to protect the other versions of himself from different world lines. Yet, he hadn't expected that two hours had passed, and Inner God Daniel hadn't made any further moves.

This was obviously unreasonable.

Just then, a wave of mind power transmitted from [Infinite Possibility].

To Daniel's surprise, it was Knowledge Daniel who reached out to him.

"Most Powerful Daniel, if you don't mind, I'd like to continue our previous discussion."

Daniel didn't immediately respond, as he wanted to understand Knowledge Daniel's intentions. The other party seemed to have already guessed what Daniel was planning and continued.

"Most Powerful Daniel, let me ask you a question. Have you ever wondered why, no matter which world line I am in, I refuse to leave the Twisted Mindlands?"

"To your eyes, this place is a forbidden land in the Backworld. But do you think, for Inner God, this place really is a forbidden land?"

Daniel had long thought about this question posed by Knowledge Inner God, but he didn't answer immediately. He knew that the less he spoke, the less likely he was to make a mistake.

On the other side, Knowledge Daniel continued speaking with ease.

"In reality, my situation is not as easy as it seems. Because I haven't completely devoured my own self."

"Over the long years, I've been battling with my own body. It wasn't until many years later that I gradually gained control, and that's when I uncovered a secret…"
