It's hard to imagine that of the sixteen gods who bestowed the "Faith Game" upon the world a year ago, only two remain.
[Defilement] and [Birth]
The sea of desire is full of abnormalities, and whether "defilement" is truly "defilement" remains to be discussed.
Only the deity of "Birth," who never pays attention to the world but only cares about his own children, can give people a sense of "living god."
But today, even that last vestige of "divine presence" is gone.
Hu Xuan found Cheng Shi wandering alone in the void, and upon meeting him, she brought him the expected "bad" news, no, it should be said that she was pregnant.
"He fell, leaving the throne to me."
I thought I would feel some joy upon receiving this divine throne, but I felt a pang of reluctance as He departed.
She was not a good mother; her love for her child was mixed with her devotion to the "Primordial One."
But at least He truly loves His children and has always protected them, and I am that lucky child.
To express my gratitude and to show my devotion, I asked Him for a child, and He granted my request. So my mother and I gave birth to me.
So standing before you is Hu Xuan, the Sage of Life, and the child of the Eternal Day and [birth].
His departure was unusually quiet. There was no collapse of the void, nor any overflow of birth. Instead, the life tablets on the pillar fell off one by one and were revealed before my eyes, before shattering silently.
He left no final edict, but He said you will complete the unfinished final edict for Him…”
"......"
Another one.
As if they had planned it together, they chose to collectively withdraw when they became the agents of the "Covenant".
This was supposed to be a slightly sad thing, after all, the fall of [Birth] meant that the era of the old gods was almost over, but Hu Xuan's words left Cheng Shi silent for a long time.
[Birth] is still too much, even in its fall it is still so...wonderful.
Cheng Shi nodded, and without summoning the gods to a meeting of the gods' covenant, he casually waved his hand and bestowed everything left behind by [Birth] upon Hu Xuan in front of him.
More than half a year ago, the sage became the offspring of [Born] because of a single sentence from Cheng Shi.
Now, the sage has become the true "birth" because of one of his actions.
Hu Xuan's journey has been nothing short of legendary.
But Hu Xuan didn't show much joy. Or rather, from the moment she and her benefactor gave birth to her, her desire for the divine throne diminished. She longed to have another child, as for who the father of that child would be...
From the moment she appeared in this place, her gaze never left Cheng Shi's face.
However, Cheng Shi, lost in thought, paid no attention to any of this. Perhaps he was used to the sage's covetousness. He simply frowned deeply, his expression growing increasingly tense. Coincidentally, just before the sage was about to speak, he suddenly interrupted the sage's courage, pulling out the dyed container from his robes. Looking at the iridescent "deception" flowing across the container, he looked at the sage and said:
"Sage, try dyeing it with your power of [Birth]?"
Hu Xuan was taken aback. Despite her doubts, she acted before she questioned them.
She channeled her immense power of "birth" to envelop the container. Before long, the container, which dripped with playful divinity and flowed with masked sand, began to slowly fade, turning into pure white, and then gradually became stained again, giving birth to a clear cry!
Things have changed, they've really changed!
The dazzling container of deception has transformed into a bizarre container of birth, with the two ends of the hourglass becoming two fetuses encased in amniotic fluid, their umbilical cords serving as the only opening connecting the hourglass.
Seeing this amazing scene, Hu Xuan exclaimed in shock, "How...!"
"The [birth] vessel that you cannot materialize feels exactly the same as what it gives you, right?"
"Yes, why is this a characteristic of the [Deception] container?" Hu Xuan asked curiously. "Could it be that the [Deception] container can deceive the faith of all containers as easily as a lie from yesterday?"
Cheng Shi shook his head, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes:
"No, this is not a characteristic of the [fraud] container, but a characteristic of the coloring container!"
The container you just saw, which is called "Fraud," was also dyed.
Sage, your appearance is crucial, prompting me to reflect on the dyeing container in my hand.
At first, when I received this container on the Sandles stage, I thought I was getting closer and closer to becoming a real fool... Don't look at me like that, I really am a fool, but it's a complicated matter, don't delve into it, just listen to me."
"......"
"But later, [Fraud] told me that this was not just a container of [Fraud], but a dyeing container that could stain all faiths. He dyed this container into [Chaos] right in front of me."
At that time, I felt that he was paving the way for me to truly take over the identity of Ultraman... but that's not important.
Importantly, ever since I learned that a container could be dyed, I had always believed that this container was the key to my seizure of divine power. It wasn't until I truly understood what is predetermined that I realized that while a container can be dyed, predetermined is undyable.
So here's the question: if it's predetermined that I can't be dyed and can't inherit divine power, then what's the use of [deception] giving me a dyeing vessel?
It might have been used to help my friends seize power, but the containers I gave away were all independent entities. Later, I no longer needed containers to elevate people to godhood; I could simply use the voting power of the [Covenant] to appoint people at will, and eventually even became the [Covenant's] proxy...
