"Master and servant?"
The Goddess' words caused Shien to immediately think of that pair of twin sisters.
Aside from them, Shien couldn't think of any other pair of master and servant that the Overgod, Omniss, would be interested in.
The Goddess, who had transformed into a one-eyed Fiendgod, raised her Sovereign's Spear with one hand while staring at Shien.
"She is very curious. Now that she knows part of the truth of the past, she wants to know what choice this pair of master and servant will make."
The Goddess said calmly.
"Thus, as long as your own safety isn't in danger, she won't interfere in this current situation."
After saying these words, the Goddess put away her Sovereign's Spear.
Shien's heart was filled with many questions, as well as a strange feeling towards the Goddess' attitude towards him.
He always felt that this Goddess, compared to before, not only was there many unnatural aspects to her, but she also seemed to have a transcendent aura, as though she was standing at the highest point of the world, staring down at it from above. She made him feel a sense of reverence, as though he had to raise his head and stare at her.
This sort of reverence was something he hadn't felt before.
However, she didn't give Shien any time to think about it.
"That's true, but since you've come all the way here, it wouldn't be right for you to return empty-handed." The Goddess said calmly, "Let me give you a hint."
The Goddess raised her eyes slightly, and then said something that caused Shien's expression to change.
"The ultimate goal of that individual named Danas isn't war; it's to revive the Demon King."
The Goddess used the handle of her Sovereign's Spear to tap the ground beneath her feet, as though she was talking about the undead slumbering underground. Her face was completely expressionless.
"Revive the Demon King?"
Shien's eyes narrowed.
Danas' ultimate goal was actually this?
Was this a joke?
Wasn't there no way to revive the Demon King?
Wasn't it said that the possibility of the Demon King being revived had already been eliminated by the Overgod, Omniss?
If it wasn't for that, the Demons and even the Old Demons Faction would already be thinking of ways to revive the Demon King. How could it be Danas' turn to do this?
What in the world was going on?
Shien's emotions began to grow chaotic.
Only now did the Goddess speak.
"Your perception is wrong."
The Goddess slowly transmitted her voice into Shien's ears.
"It's not that the Demon King can't be revived, it's just that the conditions haven't been met."
The Goddess's gaze seemed to be able to see through Sean's body and see the things that existed in his body. She spoke meaningfully.
"Be it the Goddess or the Demon King, they are truly immortal existences. Even if they are killed, as long as their source is still there, they will revive sooner or later."
"The Demon King didn't revive, not because there's no way to revive, but because the Concept that symbolizes its origin has been taken away. It doesn't want to revive, so it didn't revive."
"If she really wants to be resurrected, then unless the concept that symbolizes her origin is suppressed by the power of the same lattice, in other words, by the power of the Supreme God, if she wants to be resurrected, it will only take a thought."
The three Goddesses and the six demons knew that this was all because the Demon King's jade was suppressed by the Overgod. Otherwise, the Demon King could not be revived.
The leaders of the three Goddesses and the six Demonkin races knew that this was all because the Overgod had taken away the Demon King's precious jade. The Overgod had suppressed the Demon King, which was why the Demon King had never been able to revive.
They also believed that it was impossible for the Demon King to be resurrected.
This was because there was no one in the world who could resist the Overgods and steal the devil king's jadeite from them.
Under such circumstances, as time went by, there was a rumor that the Overgod had eliminated the Demon King's possibility of revival.
In fact, this rumor was referring to the so-called symbol of the Concept of Origin, which was the matter of the Demon King's jade being taken away by the High God and being sealed away.
Sean furrowed his brows tightly. He more or less understood what the Goddess meant.
But it was precisely because he understood that he was puzzled.
"If that's the case, then Danas's goal of reviving the Demon King should not be achieved, right?"
Shien thought so.
"That thing that symbolizes the origin has fallen into the hands of the Overgod and is being suppressed. No matter how hard Danas tries, he will not be able to revive the Demon King, right?"
This was Shien's thought. It was also the first thought that came to everyone who knew about this.
Unfortunately …
"The source that symbolizes the Demon King's concept was released not long ago."
The Goddess said something that shocked the world with a calm tone.
"What did you say?"
Shien's eyes widened. His face was full of astonishment.
The Goddess's expression was still calm.
"I said that the source that symbolizes the Demon King's concept was released not long ago." The Goddess said in the calmest voice: "Therefore, the possibility of the Demon King's revival is no longer suppressed. As long as the conditions are met, even if the Demon King does not intend to do so, outsiders can use the inheritance he left in this world to revive him."
Shien was completely speechless when he heard this.
The psychological impact of this incident on him was greater than he had imagined.
There was shock.
There was astonishment.
There was unease.
At the same time, there was a hint of hope that he did not understand.
In Shien's mind, the little girl who held the red jade and had been searching for others and a place to stay appeared. She endured endless loneliness and emptiness and finally met the brave girl in this world.
When she met the brave girl, the smile on her face.
When she heard that the brave girl wanted to help the Goddess fight against him, the tears that flowed from the corner of her eyes.
These images kept replaying in Shien's mind.
Shien's heart was in a mess.
He did not understand how he felt when he found out that the Demon King could be revived.
In the end, he could only say one thing.
"Why would the source that symbolizes the Demon King's concept be released?"
Shien's voice was a bit hoarse.
The Goddess went silent.
After a while, she spoke in a gloomy voice.
"Perhaps she has come to terms with something."
"Maybe she has understood something."
"Or perhaps, the thousand-year-long dream allowed her to see many things that she clearly knew in the past, but subconsciously ignored."
One thing is for sure, after the Demon King died, her hatred was gone. Her anger was also gone. All that was left was endless emptiness and endless nostalgia.
"Then, when the opportunity appeared, she let it go."
As she spoke, the Goddess's expressionless face showed a self-deprecating look for the first time.
"Who knows, maybe she's also looking forward to something."
After leaving such words, the Goddess turned her back.
"No matter what, the possibility of the Demon King's revival has returned. This is a fact.
Although it is impossible for the individual named Danas to be recognized by the Demon King's jade and take it away, even without the jade, as long as the conditions are met, the Demon King can still be revived. "
"Of course, without the jade, the Demon King's power wouldn't be much. But if she wanted to, she could summon the jade back at any time and restore herself to her prime."
If the holy sword that symbolized the 'brave' could return to its master's hand at any time, then the jade that symbolized the 'Demon King's' concept would definitely have the ability to do so.
Concept objects were things that could only be manipulated and used by those who possessed the concept that they symbolized.
They were one with the existence that symbolized the concept. Only the appearance was different, but everything else was the same.
It was for this reason that when a hero successfully transcended, the holy sword would resonate and pulse and enter the hero's body, transforming together with the hero.
This was because the holy sword symbolized the source of the 'brave' concept. It was one with the hero, and its transformation was closely related to the hero.
As for the Demon King and the Supreme God, the holy sword symbolized the source of their concepts. To a certain degree, the meaning of the holy sword was even more complete than the holy sword symbolized the hero.
One was a jade that contained the power to destroy and destroy everything.
The other was a jade that contained the power of omniscience and omnipotence.
They were equivalent to the source of the Demon King and Supreme God's power, as well as their very essence. Unlike the hero's holy sword, the holy sword was a unique and absolutely indestructible existence.
As long as the holy sword existed, no matter if it was the Demon King or Supreme God, even if they died, they would be revived sooner or later.
Even if the holy sword followed the will of its owner before death and didn't revive the owner, as long as it existed in the world, its owner wouldn't truly die.
Because of this, even if an outsider gathered the conditions to revive the Demon King, they would be able to revive the Demon King.
This was what the Goddess said.
"Now, the conditions to revive her have basically been gathered."
"As for whether or not the individual named Danas will be able to gather all these conditions to revive the Demon King, I'm unable to foresee such a future."
"When it comes to the Demon King, even if I'm omniscient and omnipotent, capable of seeing through the past and the future, I can only be a bystander who knows nothing."
"And if she's truly revived, then I'm looking forward to it."
"I'm looking forward to what choice she'll make after learning of your existence."
The Goddess' warning and prophecy ended here.
"You …"
Shien was beginning to realize what the Goddess' true identity was, which was why he revealed an even more astonished expression than before.
But the Goddess had said all she wanted to say.
* Thud! *
Accompanied by a clear knocking sound, the Goddess tapped the God's Lance in her hand, causing the entire world to distort.
The familiar feeling of the world spinning assaulted Shien's mind.
Shien disappeared from the temple and returned to his original location.
The one-eyed Goddess stared fixedly at the place where Shien had disappeared. Only after a while did she wave the God's Lance in her hand, causing a figure to appear here.
It was Neon.
"You … You actually dared to do such a thing!"
Neon seemed to be panting, but she couldn't hide the anger on her face as she pounced towards the one-eyed Goddess.
The Goddess only glanced at her quietly, and it was as if her entire body had been frozen, imprisoned by the surrounding space.
"Don't even think about escaping."
The Goddess threw down these words and then disappeared from the temple.
The space around Neon immediately returned to normal, allowing Neon, who was still in a pouncing posture, to continue pouncing forward. She pounced on nothing.
Instantly, Neon stood there, looking at the empty temple, and her entire body began to tremble.
She was angry.
"Who ran away?!"
"Who ran away?!"
"It was clearly you coquettish bitches who ran away. I was the one who came first! Ahhhhh …!"
Neon was driven mad.
Meanwhile, the temple was imprisoned once more, making it impossible for Neon to summon Shien again.
Neon wanted to cry, but no tears came out. She stood in the temple, grieving for a long time.
