The Kingdom of God, inside the Temple.
"Sheena, check carefully, don't miss a single crumb."
"Grim Reaper, this pillar is a bit hard. Use your scythe to saw it."
"Assal, I heard you were a prince in your past life. You should be good at arithmetic, right? You'll be in charge of counting the weights, accurate to the milligram!"
Jiang Yan dug the wall with all his might while giving instructions in a loud voice.
Sending angels to demolish the temple was a bit too much, so he deliberately called for all the dead.
This kind of demolition of temples belonging to opposing pantheons has ignited their enthusiasm to the max.
Sheena's eyes widened with excitement, her bright red pupils unusually serious as she scanned the interior of the hall.
His keen eyesight, honed by being a top-notch marksman, was put to its fullest potential at this moment.
Death, in high spirits, transformed his scythe into a saw and sawed down all the stone pillars except for a few load-bearing ones.
This is an achievement that even the Necropolis at its peak couldn't accomplish!
It took the four of them more than 30 hours to complete the division of the entire temple.
"Have you finished the tally? How much does it weigh in total, Assar?" Jiang Yan couldn't help but urge.
"Your Majesty, the materials used in this temple are not all the same. The floor tiles weigh a total of 2,500.13 kilograms, and the stone pillars are made of even rarer materials, totaling 3,126.51 kilograms. In addition, there are various decorative items, which should be made from the world's soil, totaling 103.21 kilograms."
What is the earth of the world?
“By refining a complete world, you can obtain about one kilogram of concentrated substance. After repeatedly refining the impurities, you can obtain the world soil.”
"So this little thing destroyed at least a hundred complete worlds?"
Jiang Yan gasped as he looked at the small clump of semi-fluid substance in Asar's hand.
Are all these gods so extravagant?
"We've struck it rich!" Jiang Yan couldn't help but pace back and forth around the neatly stacked materials, and it took him a long time to calm down.
After careful consideration, he kept 500 kilograms of materials and put away the rest.
These are enough to exchange for 3,000 sets of legendary equipment; he plans to keep the rest to build his own temple.
After all, these materials were the best things that Paradise had plundered during its heyday, and it would be difficult for him to find them again with his current strength.
Holding immense wealth in his hands, Jiang Yan straightened his back and directly sent a message:
"The materials are ready. Send 3,000 sets of legendary equipment to the 037 beginner plane as soon as possible. In addition, prepare 300 million Pure Faith Crystals and 10 billion Soul Crystals in cash!"
"No problem, sir. Including the time to retrieve inventory, the First Chamber of Commerce's transport team will arrive outside plane 037 in 12 hours and 23 minutes."
"make a deal."
Jiang Yan shut down the communication; now he just needed to wait for the equipment to arrive before heading to the ruins.
......
Two days later, the Ruins of the Dead.
Thousands of lords are leading their armies in a fierce attack on a small group of demons on the outskirts.
Most of these warriors are of rare and epic quality, with only a very small number reaching legendary level, and their levels generally do not exceed the realm of lower gods.
Several mid-level abyssal demons wandering on the outskirts, appearing like war gods in comparison, their fleshy tentacles capable of crushing large numbers of soldiers with each sweep.
Fortunately, the lords outnumbered the demons, and with the constant stream of new items and skills, the demons gradually became outnumbered.
"I never imagined that there was actually an ancient relic of the underworld hidden here."
An elderly man with a dignified air in the back said with some emotion, "If you had spoken up earlier, our three star regions wouldn't have ended up in this state today."
"It's all that kid Arlando's fault, hiding such a huge ancient god's ruins and not only that."
A man shrouded in black robes couldn't help but say angrily, "If it were just an ordinary True God inheritance, that would be one thing, but how could he possibly handle a relic of this level by himself? As one of the clan's top geniuses, if he really makes a discovery, would we treat him unfairly?"
"Damn it, they only told me after I'd tried several times and still couldn't get through the gate. Otherwise, we might have already explored all the ruins by now."
“He’s a young man, I can understand. After all, this is his opportunity, it’s only natural,” the old man said, shaking his head.
"Are you sure you haven't been hiding any information?"
"No, he voluntarily shared all his memories about the ruins with me," the man in black robes recalled.
"That's good."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, after paying a huge price, a small team of demons was finally overwhelmed by the sea of people.
Several lords flew over excitedly, each carrying a few items.
"Chieftain, sir, look! We've found these things in the ruins."
Two chessboard-shaped objects.
An old book.
There were two shells and a mirror.
"What are these?" the old man asked the man in black robes.
"According to the information shared by Landau, the two chessboards are medium-sized war machines from the Netherworld, and you saw their effects in the fifteenth Abyss Trial. These cannonballs should be ammunition for the Undead Cannon, and it is said that each one contains a powerful undead monster, but unfortunately the launcher could not be found."
"That mirror is an exile item. Once you enter it, you will be randomly teleported to various dangerous places."
"As for this book... it seems to be about the history of the underworld."
The man in black robes approached and saw that it was written in Common Language: "Chronicles of the Dead - Revised Edition by Death".
He quickly flipped through it:
"The Necromancer pantheon is the most powerful of all pantheons."
"There are a total of 1,000 common divine positions across all pantheons, with the Underworld occupying 40% of them."
"The only pantheon that has drawn the personal attention of the Lord of the Abyss."
"The God of Death has traversed countless eras, battling the lords of various pantheons, and has never been defeated."
“...”
As they read on, their expressions grew increasingly excited.
"So the necromancy system is the strongest of all the pantheons!"
"Damn it, I knew it! That true god inheritor in our clan kept proclaiming that the fire god was the strongest and demanded all sorts of resources. But not only did he lose in the trial, he also ran away. Turns out he was just fooling me all along!"
The old man suddenly realized.
"Yes, the key point is that the Netherworld monopolizes a full 400 universal divine positions, while the other 100-plus pantheons share the remaining 600, meaning each pantheon only gets an average of 5-6 positions. The difference in strength is just too great."
A smile involuntarily appeared on the black-robed man's cold face.
"It seems highly likely that there is more than one divine succession within the ruins. When you and I ascend to the status of chief gods, all the problems will be solved."
"That's right, and there's that 'earth rat' from the City of Freedom. Last time, he dared to openly favor Jiang Yan in the Abyss Battlefield. Once he advances to the level of a main god, we must teach them a lesson."
Just as the group was lost in their dreams, the space suddenly rippled violently, and a vast divine kingdom burst forth from the void.
A man holding a dark jade-colored staff stood at the entrance to the divine kingdom, his expression playful.
"Excuse me, I don't know why you have trespassed on my territory without my permission."
