Creating gods is a means employed by the world's consciousness to combat external enemies.
It is a last resort, a desperate measure.
Just like the coronation ceremony of the orcs, it is, in some ways, a continuation of this technology.
In ancient times, the world's consciousness still preferred to manipulate the method of having a single god to protect the entire world.
However, gradually, the world's consciousness realized that this method was not reliable enough and was very risky.
Cases like Shuten-dōji are the most obvious example of someone who has lost control.
Thus, the path to creating gods was abandoned.
Over the long course of time, countless world consciousnesses have made various attempts.
Having abandoned the path of the gods, the world of ninety million began to flourish with a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending.
"You said before that there should be nature gods in the world of Shenzhou, right?"
Jiang Wang asked, a curious expression on his face.
"Yes, but they were listed on the Investiture of the Gods, which was the very moment when the Heavenly Court was first established."
"The Investiture of the Gods was actually an incredibly chaotic super war."
"The man-made gods fight against the demon race, but they must also fight against their own kind."
"The nature god was not of human origin, but humans coveted this power."
"Making it on the list gives you a chance to live, but you have no freedom; if you don't make it, you die."
The so-called Investiture of the Gods is a special magical artifact, and the Investiture of the Gods War was the result of the human race's strategic planning.
Human cultivators are most skilled at "divination and fortune telling".
In that great battle, they used calculations to grasp the workings of the Heavenly Dao.
Thus, they successfully outmaneuvered the will of Heaven, laying a solid foundation for the rise of the human race.
From that moment on, the path of defying fate officially began.
Humans are unwilling to be mere food for demons, so they must become stronger.
The Heavenly Court organization, along with the Investiture of the Gods, formed the initial core of the organization.
But after such a long period of development, all of this has changed again.
The blood of demons granted humankind spiritual roots, ushering in a new era.
"The Investiture of the Gods is just the beginning, but Heaven will not allow us to defy Heaven like this."
"As a result, the demon race grew stronger and stronger, and we found it increasingly difficult to hold on."
"In the end, we can only use forbidden power, namely the blood of demons."
This is what is known as the common origin of enemies and ourselves.
Whether right or wrong, humanity has lost a lot on its path forward.
But they did indeed obtain the power they desired...
With power, everything becomes easier, and then comes the call to counterattack.
"Now, the stronger the demon race becomes, the more excited we humans will be."
"This means stronger materials and a more powerful inner core."
The so-called spiritual root is the blood of demons, since a certain part of the human body has been transformed into a demon.
Therefore, consuming the inner core of a demon can naturally enhance one's strength.
The existence of inner elixir is somewhat mysterious.
It's probably some kind of "mechanism" set up by the world's consciousness.
The original idea was probably that powerful demons could devour other demons to strengthen themselves.
This was done to accelerate the fighting between demons, allowing them to grow stronger more quickly.
At the same time, it also serves as a safeguard, preventing the demon race from becoming suspicious and distrustful of each other.
Because of the existence of the inner core, it is difficult for demons to unite as one.
Who knows if they make friends genuinely for friendship, or for that inner elixir?
In short, the inner core has become a boon to the human race, serving as a means for them to accelerate their growth.
People used to be afraid of demons, but now demons are afraid of humans.
Tragically, the demons were constantly suspicious of each other and were unable to unite as one.
In contrast, humans, by working together, can kill a demon and then share its various materials.
With many against few, the powerful demons were constantly besieged and suppressed by the Heavenly Court.
Only recently have the demons finally cooperated and launched a fierce counterattack.
But it was too late. The old sword demon was right; the Heavenly Court's foundation was too deep.
The demon race had no way to resist all of this.
Even if they have the support of Heaven, they still cannot fight against the rebellious humans.
The power of the Heavenly Court organization, combined with the strength of various worlds, has formed a united world.
They have absolute dominion over these worlds.
They could even easily destroy several worlds.
The world consciousness gradually became afraid, and dared not make any big moves, so it could only make some small moves.
Heaven regards all things as straw dogs, and now, the human race regards Heaven as straw dogs.
"Give me the chance, I'll definitely go and gather some materials, and see what that inner core is all about?"
Jiang Wang said, revealing an expression of great interest.
"Actually, China has been researching this all along."
"Demons and humans actually share some commonalities."
"We humans are different from humans in other worlds."
"After traveling for so many years, I feel more and more that this is the right thing to do."
They are said to be human, but they were created by Nuwa, a demon.
Therefore, humans and demons originally shared the same origin.
"That's why it's possible for humans and demons to intermarry and have offspring."
"That's why humans can absorb the blood of demons and awaken their spiritual roots."
"That's why humans can merge with demons."
This is probably the biggest secret in the world of China.
"We are all demons, so why doesn't Heaven help us?"
"We humans are just struggling; if we don't want to die, we must fight."
The old sword demon said, and he also sighed with emotion.
After listening to this part of the story about the Divine Land, Jiang Wang felt that he had benefited greatly.
Moreover, it strengthened my resolve to take a trip to the world of China.
"So, what are your thoughts on the existence of the God of War?"
"Is there any relevant information you can share?"
Jiang Wang asked, "This is very important intelligence."
"At first, he was just a martial artist, at most capable of fighting."
"He trains in martial arts, pure martial arts, and with this skill, he can fight demons."
"Because their combat strength is indeed quite good, and there are vacant positions on the Investiture of the Gods."
"So they wrote his name down, and he became a martial god through his martial arts skills."
In other words, the God of War, like Rift Sky, was originally a pure martial artist.
However, because he was listed on the Investiture of the Gods, he gained strange powers, and his martial arts skills became less pure.
"What was his strength like before he made the list? Had he reached the Void Breaking Realm?"
Jiang Wang asked, a curious expression on his face; he was eager to know this information.
"No, he only reached the Void Breaking Realm after he was conferred the title of God."
The old sword demon didn't hide anything; he said what needed to be said.
