"As for why the war of the gods must begin immediately, it is because even though she is in Aethernia, she can still affect the twelve Quintessences. For example, recently, we have been able to sense that the Quintessences are trying to break free from the shackles of our divine souls and return to Aethernia." Omphalos looked at Han Shuo and continued, "It has been about fifty thousand years since she entered Aethernia. We don't know if she has regained some of her strength, but we have also sensed a powerful suction force from Aethernia."
"Under such a powerful suction force, our Quintessences are starting to lose control and are trying to break free from us and fall into Aethernia. It was at this time that the Goddess of Destiny discovered the problem. She discovered that by filling the Mirror of Destiny with a certain amount of divine souls, she can affect the suction force from Aethernia. "
Han Shuo's face jolted and he said in a deep voice, "That is to say, she can only stop the suction force from Aethernia by sending divine souls into the Mirror of Destiny." After hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo continued, "The war that breaks out on Elysium every once in a while is part of your plan. You deliberately sacrifice enough divine souls to fill the Mirror of Destiny to resist the suction force from Aethernia?"
"That's right!" Omphalos did not deny it. He said, "We will also take the war of the gods seriously. It would be perfect if we could sacrifice our own people to fill the Mirror of Destiny."
"So every time the Goddess of Destiny intervenes, it means that the Mirror of Destiny has been supplied with enough divine soul energy?" Han Shuo was stunned.
Omphalos nodded again.
Han Shuo took a deep breath and his face was filled with astonishment. He did not expect that the so-called war of the gods would have such a huge secret. It was no wonder that the war of the gods was inevitable.
Suddenly, a strange light flashed in Han Shuo's mind. He suddenly recalled some of Hegemon Kauze's memories. He stared at Omphalos and asked, "You want to protect your subordinates. Why do you allow the godhunters to do as they please? I've heard that if there are too many gods in a certain religion, their Quintessences will be affected. Is there such a thing? "
Omphalos was also slightly surprised and said, "You actually know about this?" Nodding his head, Omphalos said, "There is indeed such a thing, but it is somewhat different from what you know. In addition to the replenishment of the power of faith and the cleansing of the sea of faith, the Godhood also needs the continuous death of gods of the same system. Their deaths are also the foundation to maintain the Godhood. "
Han Shuo was stunned when he heard this. According to what Omphalos had said, the Quintessence was a little too miraculous. It was as if all the gods who cultivated in the same energy were just food for the Quintessence. The Quintessence seemed to be using their lives as food. It needed to constantly replenish itself, but it couldn't eat too much at once.
At this point, Han Shuo had more or less understood some of the secrets about the Battle of the Gods, Aethernia, Gu Tianxie the Exalted Demonlord, and the Creator Deities. However, Han Shuo still didn't know why Nestedt, Gourado, and Omphalos had invited him here.
"Alright, now can we talk about what you have invited me here to cooperate with?" Han Shuo had completely understood. He took a deep breath and saw that his unusually excited state of mind was slowly calming down. Only then did he open his mouth to ask.
Nestedt and the other two, who had been patiently telling Han Shuo about the Battle of the Gods and Aethernia, suddenly fell into a collective silence after Han Shuo asked this question.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Han Shuo was a little puzzled.
"That's not it." Nestedt smiled and glanced at Omphalos and Gourado. He asked, "Do you think he's qualified to be on our side?"
Omphalos and Gourado carefully sized up Han Shuo. After hesitating for a while, they nodded indifferently.
"That's good." Nestedt said, "We hope that you'll be on our side during the Battle of the Gods and try to minimize our losses. Also, when we're in Aethernia, we hope that you'll work together with the three of us to advance and retreat together. "
"What do I get in return?" Han Shuo hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Originally, according to the agreement, once Aethernia is broken, you'll lose your value, and we'll get rid of you first. After all, that person's power is too terrifying, and you'll be a great threat in the future. " Nestedt said solemnly, "However, if you agree to advance and retreat together with us, once Aethernia is broken, we'll do our best to protect you. As for the future, we'll come to a conclusion after the matter with Aethernia is over. "
Han Shuo knew that once he opened Aethernia, he would lose his value. It was only natural that the twelve Quintessence Overgods would abandon him.
Gu Tianxie the Demonlord was too much of a deterrent to them. Even if the twelve of them worked together to destroy the Creator Deities, Han Shuo's existence was still the biggest threat. It was only natural that they wouldn't allow him to live.
"You mean that after Aethernia is broken, when others plan to attack me, you'll help me deal with them and protect me from being killed? And when the matter with Aethernia is over, we'll go our separate ways? "Han Shuo asked with a strange expression.
"That's right." Nestedt nodded.
"What's in Aethernia?" Han Shuo snorted coldly.
The three's expressions changed slightly. Nestedt pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Something that can become the new Creator Deities. This is just the Goddess of Destiny's guess. We don't know if it's true or not. But whether it's true or not, we'll fight for it with all our might! "
Something that can become the new Creator Deities! Han Shuo was shocked. The twelve Quintessence Overgods were ambitious. As expected, they didn't just want to rebel for the control of the Creator Deities. It seemed that the thing that could become the new Creator Deities was their real goal!
A series of thoughts flashed through Han Shuo's mind. Han Shuo's eyes shone brightly as he carefully considered the three's proposal. After a while, Han Shuo said, "Once I open Aethernia, I'll be killed immediately. What does the Goddess of Destiny think about this?"
Gourado had a strange expression on his face, and his lips curled into a strange smile. "What does she think? Hehe, this idea was put forward by her in the first place! "
Han Shuo's heart sank. After a while, he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll cooperate with you as well."
Han Shuo didn't expect this idea to be put forward by the Goddess of Destiny. He observed Nestedt, Dark Mantle, and Gourado. From the strange expressions on their faces and the calmness of their auras, he suddenly felt that they were speaking the truth.
He didn't expect that the Goddess of Destiny, whom he had a good impression of, would be the one who put forward this idea. Han Shuo suddenly realized that the Goddess of Destiny was the most uncertain factor among the twelve Quintessence Overgods. And he had always thought that the Goddess of Destiny could help him the most.
"Hehe, you agreed so easily?" Gourado asked with a smile.
"I'm not even a match for one Omphalos, and now all twelve Overgods are ganging up on me. Hehe, no matter how many lives I have, it's not going to be enough." Han Shuo shrugged and smiled bitterly.
He knew that once the matter in Aethernia was over, no matter who obtained the treasure that could lead to the new Creator Deities, they would be the first to kill him. This was something that no one could change.
But as long as he could avoid being targeted by the twelve Overgods at the very beginning, who knew what would happen after he entered Aethernia?
"If that's the case, then let's discuss the details," Omphalos nodded.
Inside the Shrine of Darkness, Han Shuo and the three Overgods of Death, Destruction, and Darkness discussed the details of their cooperation, including how the Fringe would participate in the War of the Gods, and how they would deal with the other gods in Aethernia.

At the same time, at the center of the Shrine of Destiny in the Destiny Dominion, the Goddess of Destiny stood in front of a mirror that had the sun, moon, and stars in it. She shot out a beam of dazzling white light from her palm into the center of the mirror.
After the white light in the Goddess of Destiny's hand fell into the mirror, the mirror suddenly changed. The stars in it exploded in an instant, turning into cosmic dust or flying meteors. The cosmic dust slowly gathered and gradually formed new planes. Various types of energy flowed in, and some light from the depths of the universe fell on those planes, giving birth to life ….
The destruction and reassembly of a universe, the birth and death of a plane, the birth and death of a life, and many other scenes appeared on the mirror.
Suddenly, like the scene in the mirror, strands of white lines visible to the naked eye connected to all the living beings on the plane, resonating with their souls.
She fiddled with one of the white lines, and with a flash of light, an unfamiliar life appeared. His birth, aging, sickness, and death, as well as the scenes he had experienced and was about to experience, all played out at a speed visible to the naked eye. Nothing could escape the Goddess of Destiny's observation.
It was a beautiful work of art. The Goddess of Destiny twined a few thin lines together with her slender hands and gently pulled.
The thin lines broke, and the life wrapped around them suddenly died. A ball of white light burst out of the Goddess of Destiny's hand and covered all the thin lines.
Suddenly, all the thin lines disappeared, and a blurry scene appeared in the center of the mirror …
In the center of the mirror was the Shrine of Darkness. In a huge stone room with a deep starry sky and a dark whirlpool, Nestedt, Omphalos, Gourado, and Han Shuo were concentrating on a discussion …
Han Shuo, Nestedt, Omphalos, and Gourado didn't know that the Goddess of Destiny could have such a magical power to spy on them from the distant Destiny Dominion. At this time, they were still discussing how to deal with the battle of the gods, how to open Sky Castle, and how to cooperate after Sky Castle was opened.
The Goddess of Destiny's eyes shone with a strange light. She stared at the scene in the mirror for a while, and suddenly reached out to wipe away the scene that appeared in the mirror. Her lips curled into a slightly cold smile …
