"Read the contract yourself." Wang Xiaohai gave the scroll to Liu Gong to read, and briefly explained to him the method of becoming a true god, as a fulfillment of the promise of exchanging secret techniques.
The True God Elder did not stop the two from talking.
"So - you won first place, but gave up on becoming a true God?" Liu Gong's voice was a little trembling, half excited, half doubt and disbelief!
Anyone who suddenly gets such a big pie would feel like they are dreaming. Liu Gong thought that Wang Xiaohai went crazy after winning the first place. This is also normal. On his planet, someone went crazy after winning the jackpot.
"That's right, I don't want to stay in the same place forever. I like traveling and I want to see more scenery," said Wang Xiaohai.
"It doesn't really matter. There are endless scenery to see in the Star Domain of God." In Liu Gong's view, as long as he can become a true god, he would be willing to be locked in a cage for 100 million years. He didn't consider these restrictions at all. In his view, it is natural that to obtain corresponding power, one must pay a corresponding price. Even if the price is freedom, he believes that being able to move around in the Star Domain of God is already extremely free, so it is equivalent to not having to pay a price.
"Since you have chosen this, then I respect your wishes. After all, people who force him to do things must be extremely inefficient." Liu Gong found that his previous words seemed to be persuading Wang Xiaohai to change his mind. This would not work. If Wang Xiaohai really changed his mind, he would be in tears!
"Have I completed my deal with you?" Wang Xiaohai said, "I'll tell you how to become a true god."
"Complete, of course it's completed! And it's exceeded our target!" Liu Gong said hurriedly, looking very excited. "From now on, you will be my lifelong brother, the Archangel Liu Gong. After I become a true god, you can take anything you like in the star field. Even my wife can be taken. Don't be polite with me!"
Wang Xiaohai thought to himself, "Why would I take your wife? It seems like you don't even have a wife! Should I wait until you're married before I snatch her away?" It's really an empty promise without asking for money. Has this guy made such random promises before?
The True God had obviously noticed Liu Gong's problem, so he reminded him, "If you have any unfulfilled promises, try to complete them as much as possible after leaving the God's territory. Otherwise, becoming a True God may cause inner demons, or even failure."
Liu Gong was shocked. He didn't know if he had made a promise in the past that he hadn't fulfilled. After all, he was so old. He carefully searched for the memories that were buried deep inside him.
"When I was still an angel, I owed another angel two divine crystals, but he is probably dead now. There are also several times when he promised to help but failed to do so." Liu Gong said nervously, "These little things won't have any impact, right?" He still had many things to hide, for fear that if he told them, the True God would have a bad impression of him.
"The impact will be huge!" the True God said. "You must completely erase all your previous promises and undertakings from your memory. Otherwise, you will be trapped in your inner demons and unable to extricate yourself. Then, when the divine fire bears fruit, you will explode and be shattered to pieces! Of course, there will be many gaps and discontinuities in your memory after the deletion, which will also have some impact. It all depends on your willpower! So, don't make promises or vows carelessly."
"My willpower is very strong, otherwise I wouldn't have finished second. I knew I was a long way behind Tuoba Ming on the Blue Light Bridge, so I crawled desperately in the Illusion Desert. The pain subsided only when I reached the bandits who had chopped off my feet." Liu Gong said, "I've been trapped in the statue, unable to move, for countless thousands of years. I've developed an incredibly strong willpower!"
"It's okay if you have a strong will, otherwise you will suffer." The old True God was obviously very satisfied with Liu Gong. In his opinion, Liu Gong was more suitable for the position of the Star Domain True Body than Wang Xiaohai. Due to the rules, he could not refuse Wang Xiaohai from becoming the True God successor, but he could emphasize and remind Wang Xiaohai of the difficulties after becoming a True God and the pain of losing freedom, giving Wang Xiaohai a psychological hint.
However, Wang Xiaohai didn't need his hint and gave up immediately after understanding it.
"Wang Xiaohai, since you've given up on becoming the True God's successor, please promise not to tell anyone else about the method of becoming a True God. I don't want the Life Crystal to be destroyed before it's fully solidified." The True God elder turned to Wang Xiaohai and said, "You learned the True God's secret from me, so you must do something for the Star Region of God to make amends."
The True God only told Wang Xiaohai not to reveal the first method of becoming a True God, meaning that Wang Xiaohai could freely reveal the second method. However, the third method required killing three True Gods or Demon Gods and taking their divine fruits. How could an ordinary Demigod possibly do that? Even Seraphim or top-level demons were weak lambs before God, easily slaughtered! Asking angels and demons to kill a True God was like asking an ordinary person to kill an angel. The difficulty level was...
"I promise not to pass on the first method of becoming a true god to others. What do you need me to do?" Wang Xiaohai asked. He would refuse if it was too difficult, such as kneeling for tens of thousands of years.
"In your lifetime, destroy a top-tier demon," the True God said. The system didn't send him the screen shots of each person's screening, so he didn't know if Wang Xiaohai could kill a top-tier demon on his own. "I know it's difficult, but you can slowly improve your strength before going. I just need a promise."
"I promise you, and by the way, does it count if I kill the devil?" Wang Xiaohai said.
"Of course... forget it!" The True God was stunned for a moment. He thought that he couldn't even defeat the Demon God, so why was this guy so confident? He was too arrogant and conceited. He would probably be killed by the Demon God in one move if he went over!
Wang Xiaohai thought that if he wanted to become a true god, he had to fight against the devil and the true god. Of course, it would not be possible with his current strength, but he would practice to the point where he could defeat the devil and the true god, and then fulfill his promise!
"True God, you can discuss the next steps with Liu Gong slowly. I'm leaving first. I want to go directly to the battlefield between angels and demons and fight the demons!"
Wang Xiaohai's real purpose was to go to the battlefield and absorb the demons to achieve a balance of power in his body, and then advance to a six-winged demigod. Of course, he couldn't tell the true god about this.
"After you leave the study, there is a path of light to the right. At the end, there is a teleportation array. From there, you can be teleported to any location in the God Star Domain." The True God Elder said, "I wish you good luck."
Wang Xiaohai opened the door of the study and walked out firmly, as if crawling forward bravely in a psychedelic desert, without any regrets!
After leaving the desk, there were three paths of light on the left, center, and right, leading to three different places. Wang Xiaohai walked to the right, and when he reached the end, he found a teleportation array emitting a hazy white light, like a ball of smoke gathering on the ground. He walked into the smoky teleportation array and said:
"Head to the center of the battlefield between angels and demons."
A white light lit up, and Wang Xiaohai's body gradually faded like smoke, as if someone was wiping it hard with an eraser, and finally disappeared into the teleportation array.
