Eve and Ulinus talked a lot about it.
After going to the Land of Origin to see a few collapsed universes, the Dragon Ancestor opened up to Eve.
"Your Highness Eve, if you have anything else you want to know, you can ask me any questions. As long as I can answer them, I will definitely answer them. However, our communication about the truth of the world can only be carried out here. If it's in the world of Segers, it's very likely that the 'Lord' will know … "
Ulinos said.
Eve's heart skipped a beat.
She thought of the stone tablet that belonged to the world of Segers in the Temple of Origin. On the stone tablet, it would form a record of history according to everything that happened in the world of Segers …
It was as if she was monitoring it.
It was probably because of this that whenever the truth of the world and her predecessor were mentioned in the outside world, Ulinos would keep it a secret and not say anything. It was not until she came to the Land of Origin that she told her everything she knew.
"Your Highness Ulinos, how many gods know the secret of the world?"
Eve asked.
"Not many."
Ulinos shook her head and said,
"Almost all the great divine powers know this secret because they have all been here before. There were some gods below the great divine power level who knew, but after knowing, their fates were not good … "
"Some went crazy, some died, and some went missing …"
"I think that in the world of Segers, there might still be a hidden force. They are probably loyal to the so-called 'Lord' and are purging the gods who know the truth of the world."
"However, their strength shouldn't be considered strong. They can only target existences below the great divine power level."
"Of course, this is only my guess. There are also great divine powers who think that the changes in the previous universe attracted the attention of the will of the universe, or rather … the attention of the 'Lord'."
"He is controlling the will of the universe and targeting the gods who know the truth, as well as existences that might threaten the reincarnation of the universe. However, the great divine powers are more powerful, or perhaps because the 'Lord' is sleeping, he can't directly interfere with us. "
"There is some truth to this statement. The reason why the Ancient Gods started to decline quickly was probably because their overall strength was too strong, and they posed a threat to the universe's reincarnation. As for the inexplicable difficulties in the reproduction of our Dragon Race, it started when we learned the secrets of the world …"
"What about the war between the Megalosaurus and the Titans? Since we know the truth of the world, we should be allies, right? "
Eve asked another question.
Ulinos sighed.
"After His Holiness Neo went missing, the key he left behind couldn't open the Temple of Origin, so we didn't know the secrets of the world immediately …"
"However, after obtaining the key, we vaguely know the way to become a greater Divine Power …"
"At that time, we realized that there was only one greater Divine Power throne. We also vaguely sensed that the universe would definitely face a crisis, but we did not know what exactly the crisis was. So, in order to fight for this one and only throne, we broke out into a war."
As she spoke, Ulinos's expression turned lonely.
"This is the biggest mistake I've ever made, and it's also the thing I regret the most."
"Later, the Abyss appeared, the Titans were wiped out, and our Megalosaurus suffered heavy losses. At that time, the key could finally open the temple in the Land of Origin …"
"We knew the secret, but it was already too late. After the decline of the Ancient Gods, the two most powerful mythical races were wiped out, and the other suffered heavy losses …"
"That was a war with no victor. Now that I think about it, other than our own greed, we were probably also affected by external forces."
"Up until now, other than Rhinehart and me, no one else in the Dragon Race knows the truth of the world. Among the Ancient Gods, there are only a few powerful old fellows left. A few of them are not in good condition and have chosen to live in seclusion …"
"As for the gods, the only ones who know the truth are the Eternal Lord, the God of War, and the Guardian of the Stars. Well … strictly speaking, the Guardian of the Stars is also an Ancient God, but I've never liked him."
"In my opinion, those who deliberately mystify things need to be beaten up, especially him who has the divine title of Prophecy."
"In addition, the Guardian of the Stars, the God of War, and the Eternal Lord represent another path that is different from the World Tree, Yuktrasir."
"Another path?"
Eve's heart skipped a beat.
"That's right. This is also the reason why the World Tree was attacked by the gods of faith a thousand years ago."
Ulinos said.
She threw out a question that instantly piqued Eve's interest.
Eve already knew that the Eternal Lord was trying to stop his predecessor from achieving greatness, so that he could achieve greatness himself.
However, from what Ulinos said, it seemed that there was something else going on.
The ancestor of the Megalosaurus sighed softly and continued.
"After knowing the secret of the world of Segers, the True Gods developed several factions."
"The Escape Faction, the Reincarnation Faction, and the Replacement Faction …"
As he spoke, he took a deep look at Eve and said, "I'm sorry.
"The leader of the Escape Faction is the World Tree, Yuktrasir. He doesn't like fighting, and he doesn't want to see living beings sacrificed in resistance. His idea is to fuse the world of Segers into himself, advance to a greater Divine Power, give up on other planes, and reduce the attention of the Will of the Universe. Then, he will leave this universe with this plane that condenses the essence of the entire universe and the living beings of the Segers Universe, escaping this reincarnation."
"He nurtured the True Gods of faith in order to create a divine kingdom."
"A divine kingdom has the ability to be close to a plane, but it belongs to the True Gods and will not be controlled by other forces. Therefore … it is very suitable for carrying living beings when escaping."
"And if he successfully escapes the Universe of Segers, he will use himself to evolve a brand new universe …"
"This is Yuktrasir's plan, and it is also a plan that several of us ancient Great Divine Powers know about."
"The leader of the Reincarnation Faction is a mysterious ancient God named Guy. He believes that the mythical power of the Universe of Segers is too weak, and it is not the time to break away from the shackles of the universe. He should preserve the fire of civilization and continue to reincarnate to the next universe to find a better time, or even … wait for the return of His Holiness Neo."
"This is also the final choice of most of the conservative ancient Gods …"
"The leader of the Replacement Faction is the Guardian of the Stars, Riggar. He believes that escape and reincarnation are meaningless, and the only way to survive is to fight against the existence behind the universe and replace him as the 'Lord'. The reason is that after His Holiness Neo disappeared, when he used his divine power to search for His Holiness Neo, he saw a prophecy …"
"There is only one sentence in the prophecy: escape and compromise will only bring about destruction, and resistance and reincarnation will usher in new life."
"However, with His Holiness Neo's prophecy, he believes that he can't be the savior, so … he has been looking for someone to carry out his ideas …"
"It's worth mentioning that he doesn't like the World Tree, who has chosen to escape. He believes that this is a waste of resources."
Hearing this, Eve's heart skipped a beat.
"So … he chose the Lord of Eternity, Eternity, in the end?"
"That's right."
Ulinos nodded.
"The Lord of Eternity, Eternity, is the same as His Holiness Neo. His original body is human, and he fits the 'external force' that His Holiness Neo mentioned. Not only that … he is ambitious enough, but at the same time, he is responsible enough. He is deeply trusted by the gods and loved by the believers.
"If he becomes the 'Lord', it is very likely that he will succeed in saving the entire universe."
As she spoke, she let out a long sigh.
"Of course, that was in the past. After betraying the World Tree, choosing the path of resistance, and becoming the ruler of the epoch, Eternity was only one step away from becoming a great Divine Power. However, he gradually lost himself in the faith and power …"
"Perhaps he was influenced by the increasing faith of humans, but more and more of the bad habits of humans appeared in him. Selfishness, narrow-mindedness … The current him is no longer the same as before."
"Due to the uniqueness of the ancient gods' bodies, they can resist the influence of the power of faith. However, the foundation of believing in a True God is faith. Their resistance to the influence of the power of faith is far inferior to that of the ancient gods …"
"No, perhaps from the moment he betrayed the World Tree, Eternity had already begun to lose himself. Some things, once lost and a gap is opened, can never be returned."
Ulinos sighed.
Hearing this, Eve also understood something.
She knew why the ancient gods did not stand on the side of their predecessors in the war of gods a thousand years ago.
According to the timeline of the previous universes, the Segers universe would probably last around 230 million years.
And now, the lifespan of the Segers universe was extremely close to this point in time.
Not to mention the choice of the Reincarnation Sect, at least the Fugitive and the Replacement Sect could not coexist because the time was too short.
At the same time, with the prophecy of the God of Prophecy, it was difficult for the ancient gods to make a choice.
No.
Or rather, they already had a bias.
That was the prophecy of Rigdal, who controlled the Divine Profession of Prophecy. They also believed that fleeing was meaningless …
They were more inclined to Eternity at that time.
This was very realistic.
After all, all existences wanted to live and escape the fate of reincarnation.
And when it came to prophecies, there was only a mistake in interpretation, not a mistake in prophecy …
Thus, while the ancient gods were struggling, the divine war that besieged the World Tree broke out.
Before the ancient gods could make a real choice, the previous World Tree had fallen.
What happened next was very clear. As time passed, Eternity's performance gradually disappointed some of the existences led by Ulinos.
At this moment, Eve appeared.
To be honest, although she could understand the other party's actions, Eve felt that there was something wrong with the ancient gods' actions.
Thinking of this, she could not help but ask,
"So … you think that I, who is inclined to resist, can replace Eternity?"
"No …"
Ulinos shook her head.
"Although you've advanced to a great divine power, it's too late. Not to mention, the opportunity for the World Tree to advance to greatness, the key that could allow the World Tree to successfully advance to greatness, has also been seized by the Eternal Lord …
"The seven keys correspond to the seven universes. They correspond to the seven paths to greatness. However, the universes corresponding to the first five keys have been destroyed, and the laws have all dissipated. They have long lost the possibility of ascending to greatness. Only the keys to the planar universes and the Segus Universe that have not been collected have hope of ascending."
"Among them, the most mysterious key is the key of the Plane Universes. No one knows what ability that key has. It was once the opportunity for His Holiness Neo to advance to greatness, and it disappeared together with him after he disappeared …
"As for the key corresponding to the Universe of Segers, it was left behind by His Holiness Neo. Anos and I were fighting over it, and the war that broke out was also because of it …
"Later, I was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. Anos also fell into madness. Before I fell into a deep sleep, I learned the secrets of the world, and the injuries on my body made it impossible for me to advance to greatness in this life. Therefore, I gave the key to the World Tree that His Holiness Neo brought to the World Tree in the Universe of Segers.
"And now, this key is in the hands of the Eternal Lord. He successfully seized it in the divine war a thousand years ago.
"So … now, only the Eternal Lord has hope of advancing to greatness.
"Although the Eternal Lord has gradually lost himself, at least … he has not forgotten his purpose.
"If he wins and ends the reincarnation of the universe, it will be considered a victory in the end.
"Even if … maybe I don't like him becoming an existence above me, even if … he might become a tyrant.
"Sorry, you might not feel comfortable listening to these words, and you might even think that I'm hypocritical, but these are indeed the true thoughts of most of the gods …
"Everyone … just wants to live, and as the non-external existence in His Holiness Neo's prophecy, everyone is powerless and at a loss. They can only rely on special existences.
"However, other than Iteo, I think there must be a second insurance, and that is you. As an existence with unlimited potential, I think you have hope of becoming the backup to save the universe …
"Or rather, I think more highly of you in the future."
"Why?"
Eve's heart skipped a beat as she asked.
"Because you are an existence that His Holiness Neo personally brought from outside the universe. His Holiness Neo, who has advanced to a greater Divine Power, has the ability to leave this universe, but he has returned. Not only that, but he also brought you. This means that he thinks highly of you.
"Based on my understanding of him, this great existence will not do anything meaningless."
Ulinos said seriously.
"Then what do you mean by a backup plan?"
Eve asked again.
Ulinos' expression turned solemn.
"Join the Reincarnation Sect. When Iteo fails, reincarnate to the next universe and continue to fight … Borrow the key of the next universe and achieve greatness.
"The key to the Segers universe is gone, but if we really fail this time, we will have a chance to obtain a new key in the next universe. At that time, the opportunity to advance to greatness will come again!
"At that time, I will do my best to assist you, help you achieve greatness, and save this locked universe …"
