"The Ancient Gods...?"
Gazing at the slowly rising morning sun outside the window, Li Hao unusually entered a "Virtuous Man's Time."
The events of the entire day, even for Li Hao, the Creator, were somewhat overwhelming.
The actions of the Long-Eyed God perfectly exemplified the madness of a god on the brink of death.
This inevitably reminded him of the similarly insane Candle Dragon from before.
Back when the Divine Kingdom hadn't completely fallen into the Fallen Area yet...
Both pursued that slim chance of survival by any means necessary, regardless of the cost...
The only difference was that while the Long-Eyed God walked towards destruction under the death curse of the Celestial Five Declines, leaving only an endless Void Divine Hall,
Candle Dragon, although counter-killed by Li Hao during the possession, led the Mountain and Sea Realm to rebirth and even another glory.
"So, what do gods mean to civilization?"
Without gods, humans on Earth still developed their own unique civilization.
Without gods, the Fallen Area still operates by its own rules.
Li Hao knew this was an unsolvable answer, just like how no one could answer what the birth of life truly meant to this world.
"Are the Celestial Fathers also searching for this answer?"
Reaching out for his phone on the bedside, Li Hao opened the Civilization Game interface.
Through this "window" leading to All Heavens and Myriad Realms, Li Hao saw those still active gods.
As for Kanas's little schemes, Li Hao actually saw it clearly.
After all, since the takeover of Marz World, no second qualified god had emerged in that world.
This was obviously no coincidence but a result intentionally crafted by Kanas.
Having witnessed Li Hao's supreme power, Kanas had come to realize the limits of gods and the importance of power.
Combined with previous experiences wandering the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, Kanas yearned more than ever to become an existence as great as an Ancient God.
However, this doesn't imply Kanas is bad to his subordinate civilizations and races.
On the contrary, as the only True God of Marz World, Kanas has no reason to mistreat the Burrowing Insect Civilization.
And for Li Hao, Kanas as the Only God of Marz World is quite a reference.
After all, from the conversation among the gods in Civilization Game, it's clear that in most worlds, gods exist in the form of a Divine Pantheon.
Even in the most primitive worlds, it's rare to see one god dominating, let alone something hardly replicable like Marz World's "Only God."
"Huh?"
At this moment, Li Hao suddenly noticed the update on All Heavens Headlines.
This time, intriguingly, it was again concerning the death of gods.
"An entire large god pantheon perished? Not a single god could escape?"
Staring at the front-page headline in shock, Li Hao's face showed incredulity.
Defeating a god and killing a god are two entirely different levels of difficulty.
Up to now, the only gods Li Hao had seen capable of trapping gods within a world and gradually draining their power was the Dokwi Gods.
Other than that, unless the gods were on the brink of death, they could escape to other worlds or become Lost Gods even if their world was destroyed.
"Is it a Celestial Calamity? Or a God Disaster?"
Li Hao continued scrolling through the freshly updated content, finding no god knowing the truth behind it.
The vast majority of gods were as surprised as Li Hao, and some even questioned the authenticity of the event.
Yet details and intelligence from multiple sources proved the quiet fall and extinction of a god pantheon.
[Could it be that Dragon God did it again?]
[It shouldn't be, right? Even a Dragon God mastering time couldn't possibly achieve this level, right?]
Shaking his head, Li Hao noticed occasional comments pointing fingers.
Li Hao thought that even if he had been involved last time, he didn't seem to have destroyed a pantheon... right?
Thinking to the end, even Li Hao wasn't very confident.
Because during the last War of Two Realms, it was indeed Li Hao's intervention at the last moment that obliterated the Dokwi Gods.
The only difference was that Li Hao's action caused a huge commotion, whereas this fall was silent.
"Forget it, as long as those fallen gods don't visit Earth, why bother with it."
The Fallen Area is vast, and the universe is so wide, Li Hao doesn't believe those fallen gods would coincidentally appear on Earth.
"Hmm, speaking of the Dokwi Gods, the 'Cup of Hygeia' obtained from them indeed worked marvelously this time."
As the Cup of Hygeia continuously drew energy from the Void Divine Hall, it fed back to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
The life within the Mountain and Sea Realm rapidly strengthened at a visibly fast pace.
If the establishment of the Netherworld Reincarnation System endowed the realm's creatures with strong souls,
then the power of the Cup of Hygeia bestowed the newly born beings with strong bodies and extraordinary potential.
This can specifically be seen in the numerous Ascenders of the Dokwi World.
Not only that, the existence of the Cup of Hygeia practically created another layer of protective barrier for the Mountain and Sea Realm.
The outer-time vortex, together with the power from the Void Divine Hall, made the realm essentially a unique world independent of All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
Li Hao was unsure whether the Mountain and Sea Realm had such formidable external defenses when Candle Dragon was alive.
But Li Hao knew that with the time vortex, the Void Divine Hall, and the powerful life force granted by his Immortal Body,
the present Mountain and Sea Realm was undoubtedly one of a kind in All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
The situation where an entire world along with its entire god pantheon vanished silently could absolutely not happen to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"Speaking of which, where has that fool Huo Dou run off to again?"
Putting down his phone, Li Hao finally remembered Huo Dou, who was supposed to watch over his house.
Unfortunately, after looking around his room, Li Hao couldn't spot the shadow of that fool at all.
"Could it be that he ran to the city for 'exorcism' again?"
Li Hao, somewhat annoyed, rubbed his temples.
He seemed already able to foresee the "He Bo's Roar" he would soon have to face.
But the troubled Li Hao failed to notice that he was gradually adapting to this life.
On one hand he was a god, and on the other hand, he was also human.
Li Hao embarked on a path destined not to be ordinary.
