Divine power self-destruction would always be a God's final move. They would transform their eternal life and limitless divine power into sparks that would drag their enemy down to hell with them in their despair.
Weak Gods would be able to kill powerful Gods with this move, and the Gods' world would be relatively stable. I didn't need to elaborate on how important this move was.
But was the current situation really that bad for Sophocles?
The answer was obviously no. The Chaos Faction's armies were still endlessly pouring in through the Dimensional Door. The Main Gods weren't at an overwhelming disadvantage yet. Everything wasn't over yet … Even if the Chaos Faction truly lost, wouldn't it be enough for Sophocles to just leave? Would he be foolish enough to "die" for the Chaos Faction?
Just how much had Sophocles invested in this battle? Why was he sacrificing everything? Why did he have to drag the other Main Gods to their deaths?
I couldn't understand, but I knew that the existence before me would definitely be able to explain it to me.
"Cavendish, just what are you all doing!?"
For me, the unknown was always depressing. It was quite uncomfortable to be led around by the nose.
But I believed that the person before me would be able to give me an answer.
The current battlefield was no different from the ancient battlefields of the mythological generation. There was no obvious difference between heaven and earth. The blue sky and white clouds had been replaced by the starry sky, and the foundational dimensional laws of the world had been shattered.
I had never seen such a terrifying scene before. Countless dimensional tears were being torn open, and my vision, sound, and senses were all being distorted. My sense of time and space was obviously out of balance. Even though I was only a few meters away, I felt like I was thousands of kilometers away.
No, I was indeed thousands of kilometers away. You wouldn't know where your next step would land when you took the first step. When the foundational dimensional laws were broken, everything lost stability. Every step you took represented countless possibilities. In such a battlefield, Gold rank individuals didn't even have the right to be cannon fodder.
"Answer me! Cavendish! "
Amidst all the chaos, the most eye-catching thing was probably the Giant God who stood tall between heaven and earth.
"Hey, is this me? As expected of a cockroach. Even that didn't kill you."
It was a familiar figure, a familiar appearance, and a familiar frivolous temperament. I had never thought that such a face could make me so angry.
I took a step forward, but I suddenly appeared more than three hundred meters behind him. It seemed that before the dimensional laws here stabilized, I would be unable to touch him.
As far as the eye could see, the battlefield was a mess, but it wasn't that there were no survivors.
The Cloud Tower landed on the ground with thick smoke rising from it. It seemed that it was already half-destroyed. It wasn't that it had suffered heavy damage. The fact that the Cloud Tower hadn't been reduced to rubble and dust from the explosion meant that they had survived.
At this moment, the strongest Main God present, Titan, wasn't at the center of the explosion to begin with. There was enough distance between them to give him time to react. He was now half-kneeling on the ground, glaring viciously at Cavendish.
As for his opponent, Donatis, although he was also struggling at death's door, he did not die in the explosion.
But the other pair of Sovereigns didn't have an easy time.
I recalled that at that moment, Sophocles had once again used his special ability to split himself into two. One of the two was a demon, which locked onto us, the God of Holy Light's incarnation, and the God of Wisdom's incarnation. Sophocles used his elemental advantage to deal the greatest amount of damage.
Sophocles' other half was the God of Evolution's incarnation, but he charged towards Heimor and Barbarot's battle …
Now, there was nothing but a pile of minced meat and the power of Chaos. The priceless divinities, God Equipment shards, the Demon Main God's heart, and so on had all been casually tossed aside like trash. I could sense Heimor's power, but I was unable to sense his existence. It seemed that he and Barbarot had already died.
The God of Wisdom Kalumandas, the Main God Devourer Barbarot, the God of Despair Heimor, and if you included the God of Holy Light's clone, Sophocles and four other Main God level existences had perished in just a short instant.
Every Main God wasn't just an individual. The Order Gods were an amalgamation of dimensional laws. A God King level Order God would be at the top of any God Faction, capable of changing the dimensional laws with a single word. They would be the controllers of certain dimensional laws.
The Chaos Main Gods were the product of the evolution of Chaos. In the process of their growth, they had devoured countless souls. Every time a Chaos Main God fell, countless souls would return to the cycle of reincarnation. They could even affect the depth of the Styx.
And now, in just a short instant, six Main Gods (Sophocles counted as two Main Gods) had simultaneously died. It was as if someone had forcefully dug out a huge chunk of the ocean. There was a huge hole in the ocean, along with the Main Gods' remnants, which made this area incredibly unstable.
The current situation provided me with sufficient information. By now, I could faintly guess at Sophocles and Cavendish's plan, but …
"Bro, you've already guessed it. Why are you still asking? Wasting your breath isn't your style. "
The Abyss Prince hadn't come here just to observe the battle. Countless little demons flew out from behind him and landed with heavy obsidian stones. They seemed to be constructing something.
I fell silent. While I had indeed guessed it, I hadn't expected it to be such a grand scale.
"… It's to open the door? It's just to open that door? "
To my astonishment, Cavendish directly shook his head.
"No, there's actually no door at all. Back in the day, Sophocles and Sophocles went to extreme lengths. The entire universe is sealed off, just like a stone room without any doors or windows. In such a situation, even if you have a key, it's impossible to open the door without a lock or a door."
"… So, you need to blow up a door, and the Main Gods are the necessary sacrifices?"
Although it was a question, I sounded certain. This was the only possibility that would be beneficial enough to make Sophocles pay such a high price.
Carlos shrugged and smiled as he reached out with three fingers.
"Three Main Gods is the minimum. However, Sophocles has completed his mission quite well. With a total of six Main Gods as sacrifices, this area has already been initialized. This place shall become the door to a new world."
He didn't have any emotional fluctuations as he was simply stating the facts. However, this abnormal calmness that was obviously not in line with Cavendish's personality helped me faintly understand his determination.
"Ha, an initialized world isn't something that can be analyzed in such a short amount of time. Don't waste your time. Relax, I'm not interested in those parasites."
As I said this, I glanced at the Cloud Tower that was slowly rising into the sky. It would seem that he had seen through my plan of stalling for time so that the survivors could retreat.
"Parasites?"
"Aren't they? Those parasites are clearly a part of humanity. They believe that they know all the mysteries of the world because they know a little bit of magic. It's only natural that they're superior to others and enjoy the sacrifices of ordinary people, but they've never treated themselves as part of humanity. They only enjoy benefits and never fulfill their obligations. If they aren't parasites, then what are they? Ha, that's exactly what you said back in the day. "
I instantly fell silent for a moment. From my perspective back in the day, the Mage Country was clearly the most powerful country in the world, yet it never did anything to change the world. It would be quite normal for me to say something like that with my extreme attitude back then … But, I still needed to be careful. It would be quite troublesome if news of this spread.
"Cough, we all heard you."
I heard Harloys' secret message in my ear. The next instant, the light of teleportation lit up on my body. It would seem that the Cloud Tower had completed its spatial analysis.
As I looked at Cavendish, I finally asked him what he wanted to know.
"… Why did you tell me all this? Why didn't you just kill me?"
Cavendish had a rather strange expression, as if it was strange for me to ask such a question.
"Why did I kill you? Ha, just this sentence alone is enough for me to know that the old granny on your body hasn't told you anything yet. Go back and properly ask her about our undying nature … "
I didn't manage to hear Harloys' last sentence as I was dragged back to the Cloud Tower. The final scene that I saw out of the corner of my eye caused my scalp to go numb.
The Yongye City that I had worked so hard to create had been mostly destroyed. The core sealed within had also been opened. The person who had just crawled out of the core and was glaring at me seemed to be an old acquaintance of mine …
