Have you found any trace of her?
Rosette's divine position appeared and disappeared, and her voice echoed.
The gods communicated with each other in the spiritual realm, trying to find her trace.
Contrary to Bai Xi's expectations, the seven gods developed some relationship over a long period of time. Although it wasn't a great relationship, they weren't fighting alone either.
So after she 'ran away,' they didn't search for her alone, but instead worked together.
She always manages to get away.
The voice of Arunta, the god of the earth, was flat and revealed little emotion, but everyone present knew that he was not in a good mood.
Compared to when Arunta first ascended to godhood, he was ignorant and naive.
Having weathered the passage of time and seen through the various aspects of believers and the world, Arunta is no longer the naive deity who lives in seclusion and has never left his own territory.
Rather, it is so cunning that even those who are gods themselves are terrified of it.
Even Gretius had to admit that Arunta's character was truly terrifyingly 'insidious'.
"We chose to reincarnate in the first place so that we could find her again. Now that we have found her, she has run away again. She still has many questions that have not been answered."
He continued.
That's right, the seven gods chose reincarnation not to compete for the position of the main god as seen in the comics, but to find Bai Xi.
A prophecy says that Bai Xi will be born in this era, but only by returning to an ordinary existence can one meet her.
This is the real reason for their reincarnation.
As for why each of them agreed to risk losing their divine positions and even death to search for Bai Xi, the reason remains unknown.
However, it seems that Arunta is at least after the truth.
He wanted to know why Bai Xi would help him become a god, and he also wanted to know why she wouldn't die, and why her body and soul were different.
But now it seems that at least the first question has been answered.
Because Bai Xi comes from the future, she traveled back to the past.
But there are still some questions about the latter two.
“I don’t care about any of that, I just want to know where she is.”
Greysius spoke in a nonchalant tone.
"Hmph...you think others don't know what you're thinking?"
After hearing what Greysius said, the forest god Haranther seemed unable to suppress his indignation and began to mock him with barbs.
Whether his words were meant to satirize Gracius or were a twisted expression of jealousy remains unknown.
"...I will ask for the answers you want."
After a moment of silence, Graysius added.
After all, this was the reason they initially decided to enter the cycle of reincarnation. If he didn't do it because of his own selfishness, that would be going too far.
"If everyone has this attitude, I don't think there's any point in continuing this meeting."
The god of light, Nophiel, intervened and stopped the argument from erupting.
He now wields the strongest power on the entire continent of Coral, namely the Temple of Light. He has now resumed management of the temple, so he can contribute the most in the search for people.
This even annoyed the Twin Gods a bit, wondering why they didn't have enough followers to be of much help in this regard.
However, this is merely a drop in the ocean; expecting ordinary people and a group of unequally powerful magicians to find a god is highly unlikely.
“The divine position and authority mean that we must be on the same page. If our intentions are not pure, things will certainly not go smoothly.”
The older brother, Rephia, stepped in to smooth things over.
However, those words seemed to ignite a fire in someone's heart.
"You think you don't have any?"
Haransel's sharp words pierced the hearts of every god present like knives. Indeed, although they appeared calm on the surface, each god harbored their own secret thoughts.
It's just that the truth hasn't been revealed yet.
But everyone knows that once they finally find Bai Xi, they want either answers or they want to possess her.
An eerie silence fell over the air. The peace that had been barely maintained was now as if a fig leaf had been torn off, and even the sky god Oris remained silent.
"I didn't, so I have the right to speak, right?"
Suddenly, the Earth God Arunta spoke coldly.
That's right. At least on the surface, he didn't show any selfish motives towards Bai Xi from the beginning, so he wasn't refuted after he said that.
“I don’t care about your petty schemes, so if anyone tries to keep information to themselves, the rules will punish you.”
His aloof attitude made his words all the more convincing.
Indeed, after they became gods, they were all subject to the same constraints of authority. As gods, they were not allowed to engage in any fighting, nor could they instruct or instigate believers to attack other gods.
They can only respond to believers and fulfill their duties as gods.
In addition, things agreed upon by the gods must never be violated, otherwise they will be punished by the gods' authority.
This is also to prevent any god from committing a treacherous act.
It is important to understand that in a situation where different gods 'rule' the same era, it is easy for desires for power to grow unsatisfied and eventually lead to disasters across the entire continent.
The people who originally granted them authority probably considered this as well, which is why they imposed some restrictions on them.
Fortunately, none of them had much desire for the top position, so they lived peacefully for so long.
However......
Now a Bai Xi has appeared.
This is the beginning of the struggle.
"Won't."
Greysius made it sound as if he were making a promise.
The roundtable fell silent. They were all in different places and were now communicating in a mental space through the power of authority. So, once they had nothing more to say, anyone could leave if they wanted.
Just seconds before the meeting ended, the Elemental Source Realm suddenly erupted with a heaven-reaching magical power, just like in the ruins, almost sweeping across the entire continent of Coral.
So much so that all seven men sensed it.
In an instant, the roundtable meeting was interrupted. No one spoke of what they had sensed at the first moment; instead, they rushed toward the Elemental Source Realm.
The tacit understanding, the unanimous agreement, it was all driven by selfish motives.
Even Arunta was included.
Bai Xi was unaware of the huge commotion she had caused; all she knew was that after regaining the scepter, her perception of Tartarus had become much clearer.
She remembered defeating Tartarus, but at that time, she only felt that he was a huge black hole.
Now, however, she could clearly perceive Tartarus's true form: a blurry shadow, a black mist exuding a nauseating and repulsive aura.
It lies hidden in the deepest part of the dark rift.
She probably knows what she needs to do.
She came into this world and experienced so much, perhaps to completely eliminate the Abyss itself, rather than merely treating the symptoms.
