In vain, the lustful black snake roared, and then rushed straight towards the God of Shadows not far away, opening its bloody mouth, and its interlaced fangs were broken. No one knew what he had gone through.
"Have you lost your mind due to the influence of the Abyss of Eternity?"
Lyles's eyes flickered, and he raised his arm thoughtfully. The shadow power turned into a chain and attacked the old snake, trapping him in a shadow cage.
Lyles had actually expected the scene before him.
The Abyss of Eternity was originally a restricted area. In the entire Lost Continent, few gods dared to set foot in it. Even the God of Shadows was afraid of the twisted rules that existed in it.
Therefore, even though he knew the location where the God of Mamu had fallen and the divine fire was left, he still did not dare to explore.
Before the old man who bewitched the snake went to the Abyss of Eternity, Lyles had already guessed that even if the opponent found the divine fire, he might not end up safe and sound, so he made two plans in advance.
"Anyway, I still need to thank you."
Lyles raised the corners of his lips, raised his hand to gather strength with his shadow, and said, "Although you can no longer be my follower, you still helped me find the divine fire after Mamu's death!"
"Let me end your pain."
As he spoke, Lyles's eyes flashed with murderous intent. After discovering that Snake Old Man was affected by the Abyss of Eternity and was already in a state of madness, he gave up on this potential ally and decided to kill the goose that laid the goose to get the egg.
In mid-air, shadows condensed into spears and shot out.
"Do you want to break the contract? Lyles!"
At this moment, in mid-air, the black snake suddenly stopped moving, and the flames surging around it gradually extinguished, turning into the form of an old human being.
Lyles' eyes narrowed and he waved away the shadow spear.
"Ahem!"
On the spot, Old Snake's face was ugly, and the skin on his neck was ulcerated a lot, with burn-like marks. His experience in the Abyss of Eternity made him very painful, so that his expression looked a little ferocious.
"Regain your sanity?"
Lyles frowned. According to the previous contract, after Old Snake retrieved the divine fire from the Abyss of Eternity, the God of Shadows needed to help him ignite the divine fire in order to gain the other party's surrender.
Lyles's eyes sparkled when he saw that Old Snake could still maintain his sanity.
The original plan changed again. Instead of suffering the punishment of violating the contract and snatching the divine fire from Old Snake's hand, it was better to give him help and make the other party a slave god loyal to him.
What's more, the divine fire found in the Abyss of Eternity still has hidden dangers that only the God of Shadows understands!
"Congratulations, you successfully found the divine fire!" Lyles chuckled.
The vigilance in Old Snake's eyes was reduced a bit. Seeing that the God of Shadows seemed to have given up his murderous intention, he felt relieved in his heart.
Having just returned from the Abyss of Eternity, Old Snake is in extremely bad condition.
If Lyles insists on violating the contract, even if Old Snake resists with all his strength, the probability of winning is almost zero, and the temptation of a divine fire is not something that ordinary people can resist.
Fortunately, Lyles seems to have changed his mind.
"I have obtained the divine fire, what should I do next?" Old Snake barely managed to maintain his rationality and asked anxiously.
Lyles's eyes flickered and the expression on his face was subtle.
As if he was afraid that the other party would not believe him, Old Snake was a little anxious. He opened his mouth and spat out a cube, with twisted incantations engraved on the surface, and a strange, burning aura.
"Are you ready to become a god now?" Lyles' eyes flashed.
"Of course!" Old Snake has a decisive look in his eyes. The damage he suffered in the Abyss of Eternity is on the verge of breaking out. For Old Snake at this time, he doesn't have much choice anymore. He must become a god as soon as possible.
Because only in that way can the damage of the Abyss of Eternity be resolved.
"In that case, then get ready!"
Lyles took a deep breath and said faintly: "If a demigod creature wants to become a god, in addition to obtaining a divine fire, the power of faith is also essential. Only by using the power of faith as fuel can the divine fire be ignited!"
The essence of gods is divine fire and divinity.
Divine fire is a treasure bred by the world. Worlds of different sizes can produce different numbers of divine fires. And no matter how the times change, in most cases, the total number of divine fires will not change.
As for divinity, it is an acquired energy!
Perhaps, at the birth of the world, divinity was just a power gifted by the world to the gods, but as all things grow, this power is also distributed to different species and has a unified name.
The power of faith!
If the divine fire is compared to a furnace, then the power of faith is the fuel. Only the fusion of the two can completely ignite the divine fire. When a demigod creature completes the process of becoming a god, the power of faith will also be transformed into divinity.
"In other words, the divine fire needs the power of faith to ignite?"
Old Snake stared at Lyles with burning eyes. After receiving confirmation from the other party, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
Finally, Old Snake mastered the key to becoming a god!
The next moment, he no longer hesitated, raised his head and let out a roar, and then threw the divine fire in his hand directly into the air, transforming into the original black snake form again, soaring into the sky like a swimming dragon.
"My loyal believers, contribute your strength to me!"
Above the sky, a sudden change occurred. The giant black snake opened its bloody mouth, swallowed the cube of divine fire, and then made a majestic sound.
Below, the snake tribesmen knelt down one after another.
According to the snake tribe's unique method, they began to pray and offer sacrifices. The power of faith surged into the sky like water and poured into the body of the black snake. In his belly, the originally ordinary divine fire burst out with intense light.
In an instant, it seemed as if the sky was lit up!
A steady stream of power of faith poured into Old Snake's body, and the divine fire burst out like a pile of energy, making him feel unprecedented power.
"Not enough! Not enough!"
Old Snake let out a crazy roar. The power of faith contributed by the snake clan below was far from enough to ignite the divine fire, but the influence of the Abyss of Immortality was getting stronger and stronger in Old Snake's mind.
"If you want to ignite the divine fire, you can't do it without making some sacrifices."
On the spot, Lyles spoke quietly, looking around at the snake tribesmen, with a faint smile on his face.
...
At the same time, the Red Snake Kingdom.
The Red Snake Kingdom, located on the border of the Essos Plain, has a history of tens of thousands of years on the Lost Continent, but its territory is not as large as the Kingdom of Night. However, it is extremely prosperous here and is very lively no matter day or night.
The royal city of the Red Snake Kingdom is called [Red Maple City].
In the extremely luxurious palace, twelve gold pillars support the top of the palace. The ground is paved with red crystals. On the throne inlaid with countless precious gems, the weeping goddess Heraya sits lazily on it.
Below, are a group of Red Snake believers.
Those Red Snake believers were both male and female, and each of them had extremely outstanding looks. However, in front of the Weeping Goddess, they were naked and entangled with each other. Many of them even held long whips.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of whips, muffled murmurs, and the voices of men and women intertwined with each other, creating a rotten scene in the palace, and even the air had a special smell.
On the throne, Helaya raised the corners of her lips.
She watched the scene in front of her with great interest. Under the orders of the oracle, the believers entertained the crying goddess with a carnival style, and some strong male believers looked at Helaya with burning eyes.
The teachings of the Red Snake Church have always been known for their corruption.
And it is precisely for this reason that the belief in the Weeping Goddess has spread widely in the Lost Continent. In all prosperous kingdoms and cities, a large number of people are believers in the Weeping Goddess. Even those who are just casual believers are enough to give Weeping Goddess The goddess contributes a large part of the power of faith.
"Maybe I should relax a bit too."
Looking at a strong male believer below, Heraya licked her lips, feeling a little moved in her heart. However, at this moment, two powerful auras suddenly appeared in the sky above the Red Snake Kingdom.
"What's going on?" Helaya frowned.
There were two auras that appeared in the sky over the Red Snake Kingdom. One of them was very familiar to Helaya, and it was her best friend that she loved and hated. However, the other one, which also exuded divine power, felt strange to Helaya.
"Could it be that I rejected Luciles last time and she joined forces with other gods to take revenge on me?" Helaya's heart tightened, but then she shook her head and gave up the idea.
"No, little Lucy Rice would never do this to me."
Then, Helaya frowned and murmured: "But who is that? I know almost all the gods of the lost continent, but I have never felt this kind of aura. Could it be another one who came out of nowhere? Old monster?"
At this moment, Luciles and Qiluo had appeared in the palace.
Looking at the rotten scene in front of her, Lucileth's eyes showed undisguised disgust. She raised her head and looked at Helaya, frowning and said: "Get these guys out of here quickly, don't dirty my eyes!"
Helaya waved her hand, the believers put on their clothes, and all disappeared in a moment.
"Hehe, come to my Red Snake Kingdom without saying hello."
Then, Helaya looked at Lucilece and said with a smile, "Did you miss me? My dear little Lucilece."
Lucilece's face was expressionless, and her eyes were cold.
Suddenly, Heraya's heart trembled, and she recalled the fear of being beaten by the goddess of the night in her mind. She quickly put away the smile on her face and said to please.
"Welcome to the Red Snake Kingdom, my friend."
Luciles looked around, then looked at Helaya, with an intriguing smile on her face.
"Is...what's wrong?" Helaya asked weakly.
"Surrender to me and become my god!"
Lucy Lais didn't waste any time, and directly stated her intention, saying in a deep voice: "The Temple of Killing is about to open, and the Lost Continent will also be shaken. Before this dispute begins, I need to gain your power."
"Let me be your god?"
Helaya was stunned for a moment, then shook her head crazily and refused, "I don't want it. If you become a slave god, you will be restricted. If you go to war with other gods by then, I don't even have the ability to refuse."
"Whether the Killing Temple is opened or not has nothing to do with me."
"Anyway, I don't plan to get involved in the dispute. I just want to stay in my Red Snake Kingdom and no one will affect me."
Lucilece frowned, an expression of hatred appearing on her face.
"If the Temple of Killing is opened, it will most likely be located in the Dilla Canyon, and all the gods will fight for it. Why does the Temple of the Weeping Goddess think that its Red Snake Kingdom will not be affected?"
At this time, Qiluo on the side suddenly spoke.
"Who are you?" Helaya frowned.
Qiluo, who looked like a middle-aged lady, smiled, and suddenly the shadow of a giant spider appeared behind her, and her divine power was released and spread in the palace.
"You are...Dream Weaver!?"
Helaya's pupils shrank, and she was suddenly shocked, and said: "You have already lit the divine fire, how is this possible?"
"What's impossible?"
Luciles snorted coldly and mocked, "Ameng was originally a demigod. He was only one step away from becoming a true god. Now it is just a matter of course to light the divine fire."
"You think everyone is like you, a loser who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years without even making any progress!"
Helaya opened her mouth with a look of surprise on her face.
"My current name is Qiluo." Qiluo smiled and said, "Qiluo, the giant spider god!"
"But...your divine fire?" Helaya hesitated.
If a demigod creature wants to become a true god, in addition to the power of faith, the most important thing is divine fire. Most of the divine fires in the Lost Continent have owners, so it is very difficult to obtain an ownerless divine fire.
"The voodoo god Morun has been killed by me!"
Next to her, Lucy Lais spoke with a cold tone, ": Relying on the divine fire in his body, and adding part of the power of faith, Qiluo successfully became a god."
"You killed Morun!?" Helaya gasped.
The Lost Continent is a place where the gods are divided, and the gods are the most powerful existences. It has been at least a thousand years, and no god has died in the Lost Continent, let alone the birth of a new god.
Originally, Helaya was a little worried when she learned that the God of Shadows and the God of Voodoo were joining forces to deal with the goddess of the night, Lucy Lace. However, she also knew the strength of her friend and knew that even if she faced the two gods of the world, Lucy Lace
It's enough to compete.
However, what Helaya didn't expect was.
Lucilece not only won the battle between the three gods, she even killed the Voodoo God and captured his divine fire, which is a bit incredible.
After all, it is not easy to fight one against two as the gods of the world!
"how did you do it?"
Heraya's eyes shone, and she had a new understanding of the strength of the goddess of the night. If her best friend was strong enough to fight against the gods of two worlds at the same time, wouldn't she also be able to benefit from it?
At least you can walk sideways in the Lost Continent from now on?
"Cut the nonsense, don't try to change the subject!"
Lucilece interrupted Helaya and said coldly: "Didn't you hear clearly what I just said? Become my follower immediately, otherwise don't blame me for ignoring our previous friendship."
