The fourth year of Shenyuan, the first day of the first month.
Mount Everest.
White snow covered the land. The chilly mountain wind chilled one to the bone. The jagged rocks were covered in layers of snow for an unknown number of years.
"They're not here yet." Vigilante A stood on an ice boulder and looked into the distance.
In front of him, a young man smiled. "Venerable One, please be patient. They should be here soon."
"Even a dead man won't fall down. As for gods, they need to save face." A phantom of an old man holding an Eight Trigrams said lightly.
"Master, be careful with your words. Not all gods are as good-tempered as Bodhisattva." A smiling young man advised.
"Hmph, others might be afraid of you, but I don't care." The Eight Trigrams figure glanced at the crowd and said coldly.
"Although the Precognitive Divination is powerful, it can't predict all variables. Master, it's better to be cautious. "Bodhisattva advised.
The old man did not say anything.
"Eh, Shang Qingshan is still so arrogant. He dares to speak rudely in front of a god." Fang Ning was surprised.
"Look at him, then look at you. We're ten times stronger than him, but you're a hundred times more cowardly. I'm so unlucky to have bound myself to you. "Sir System sighed.
"If he's really brave, he wouldn't have sent a powerless phantom clone to the meeting every time. Everything is just his disguise. "Fang Ning was exasperated.
"Hmm, you're right." Sir System was convinced.
At this moment, a white and a black shadow appeared on the mountain peak.
"The two gods are finally here. We've agreed on the rules. I'll repeat them to see if anyone has any objections." Bodhisattva Spirit King looked at the other side and said slowly.
"Alright." Vigilante A nodded.
"Sure." The other side did not refuse.
It seemed that Bodhisattva Spirit King still had some authority.
"One, gods and humans live separately. Gods above, humans below. Humans must worship the gods, not insult them, and not worship evil gods. "
"Two, gods must not slaughter mortals for no reason. When using Divine Punishment, the innocent must not be harmed."
"Three, conflicts between gods and humans must be decided by the Assembly of Gods and Humans."
Hearing this, everyone was silent.
After a while, the black shadow suddenly said, "This is just the general principle of the agreement between gods and humans. There are still details to be discussed."
"Oh, what request does the God of Plagues have?" Bodhisattva asked.
"Since gods and humans live separately, mortals shouldn't stay in the Land of Primordial Beginning. They should migrate to outer space and not enter unless they are summoned," the black shadow said slowly.
"Preposterous! It's practically a dove taking over a magpie's nest, a robber's logic, "Vigilante A said coldly.
The black figure shook his head. "Haha, this is just doing as the Romans do, imitating the old ways of you humans. Why is the Dragon God so angry?"
"Mr. Rich Boss, can I kill him?" Sir System asked.
"We can't afford it. He's just a clone of a god. If we kill him, billions of mortals will die with him. These gods are really cunning to be able to figure out our human history so quickly and give them a taste of their own medicine. "Fang Ning sighed.
"I understand now, he's using the colonial history of America as a basis!" Sir System said angrily.
"You're finally getting smarter. This is the cycle of the Heavenly Axiom. Now, it's the humans' turn to suffer the same fate," Fang Ning said helplessly.
No matter how strong the System was, it was only invincible in a one-on-one fight. A God of Plagues alone was enough to restrain him.
It would be a piece of cake for him to directly unleash a Bioapocalypse.
There were already many incurable infectious diseases on Earth. If they were to be blessed by the power of the gods, the whole world would be finished in minutes.
Those devils were not so strong and could still be restrained, but it was different for the gods.
They surpassed the devils in that they could quickly grasp the operation of the Heavenly Axiom, understand the rules, and use them.
To put it simply, their learning ability and creativity far exceeded people's imagination.
At this moment, the woman in white said, "Why don't we both take a step back. If the mortals have reached Pond-level and can communicate with Heaven and Earth, they can be called Qi Cultivators and be allowed to stay on Earth. The gods can also have someone to order them around."
Vigilante A was silent.
The black figure said, "Since the Moon Goddess is merciful, then I will agree to this condition."
The Bodhisattva Spirit King looked at the River God of the Sky River, who only smiled and said nothing.
He did not say anything else.
It was obvious that both sides were playing a game.
To most gods, mortals were indispensable. However, Earthlings were not indispensable …
Cleaning up the ancestors and creating a new generation was what the gods were good at.
Keeping the old Earthlings who knew the ins and outs of the Era of Vitality was naturally not in the gods' interest.
They were playing a game of chess step by step. First, they would expel the Earthlings, then create new humans, and then let the new humans replace the old ones.
The Bodhisattva Spirit King instantly understood the true intentions of his former peers.
Sure enough, in their eyes, there was still no compassion or kindness.
People like him were the abnormal ones.
Those Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats would not have any compassion for the people of this world.
They only needed believers who were simple-minded, obedient, and punctually worshiped, not people who were aggressive and persistent in exploring.
Now, the fate of the Earthlings was in the hands of the person in front of him …
He and the River God of the Sky River could not make decisions because they were outsiders.
With a shallow foundation, it was difficult for them to fight against the gods of the Upper Realm.
After an unknown amount of time, Vigilante A said lightly, "Although I have some power, I can't represent all living beings. I still have to listen to the will of all living beings."
"Oh, is that so? Then it's simple. Mortals are cowardly, short-sighted, and follow the crowd. Since you want to listen to their opinions, I'll satisfy you. "The black figure smiled faintly, then stretched out his hand and flicked it down the mountain.
In just a few seconds, countless cries of pain came from the void and reached everyone's ears.
"Either go or die, make your choice …"
"What did you do?" Vigilante A was furious.
"Don't worry, I just manipulated the bacteria in everyone's body to make them feel pain. Only Pond-level and above can be immune to it. Today was the first time it happened, and it will happen every year at the same time until they leave this planet. I won't violate the agreement between the gods and humans, and I won't kill them. I just changed the environment of the Earth. "The black figure said lightly.
"This method is quite similar to the Upper Realm's Heavenly Talent, Yun Ze, but the power is incomparable. The gap between the two is too big." Fang Ning suddenly remembered something.
"Yes, the other party is a god after all. Although we can suppress them with our power, it's really impossible to guard against their endless sneaky tricks." Sir System said dejectedly.
Fang Ning was speechless. Facing these gods who had lived for countless years, even if they were like tigers on flat plains, they still had countless tricks up their sleeves. Sir System, who had been training for less than three years, could not deal with them at all.
It was already good enough that the current situation of the negotiation could be achieved.
At this moment, he deeply understood that many helpless things happened in history, and reality was like this. It would not change according to the will of a single person.
In fact, when the Upper Realm invaded, today's situation was already a foregone conclusion. This was fate.
