Volume 6 Chapter 32: New beginning, new war

The second God’s Guidance was swiftly shot out of the artillery tube and rapidly flew towards its target.

The Nanwu Shaman naturally felt it and tried to fly away by turning her entire body into a mass of black smoke.

However, numerous metallic arms immediately reached out of the ground, each of them carrying a different kind of weapon clad in Cede.

The Nanwu Shaman’s black aura vibrated to knock the arms away, but couldn’t exert the same level of power as it did earlier. A mass of black soil also quickly moved over and enveloped the black smoke. Normally, this ability would be able to protect someone from not being killed or broken apart, or rather, they would dissipate the force of impact through scattering away, but now this ability had become the best possible method of blocking her way.

Like a small mountain, the Totem easily managed to encase the black smoke inside of it… Its massive power couldn’t even hurt the Nanwu Shaman even a little bit, but it managed to completely block her escape.

Seeing the second God’s Guidance approaching, the Celestials rationally understood that they wouldn’t be able to survive it, so in the few moments before their deaths, each of them displayed a completely different side to themselves compared to normal.

Some of the Celestials were desperately exerting every last bit of Cede they had to block the Nanwu Shaman’s way using their Totem.

Meanwhile, as they felt the approaching aura of death, no matter how they tried to convince themselves and maintain their mentality, the fear of death still took them off the path of eternal peace. Some of them were even regretting and feeling grudgeful.

Their regret was from why they had volunteered for this operation despite knowing that even without them, the 3rd squadron would have been able to hunt down the Nanwu Shaman.

And their grudge was directed towards Yun Yi; since one God’s Guidance couldn’t kill her, they had already done everything they could, so they were blaming him for arbitrarily calling for the second God’s Guidance.

But regardless, neither their beliefs nor grudge could stop the projectile from falling.

Just like before, the Cede runes engraved on the metallic ammunition were rapidly activating, under the effect of Cede, it began connecting to everything in its surroundings, and once the projectile had reached its limit, another explosion would occur.

God’s Guidance stimulated everything around itself, not only in the visible surroundings but also the unseen surroundings within the other aspects of reality, all of it had been influenced by God’s Guidance to participate in the physical reaction.

The previous God’s Guidance explosion had already destroyed the Space-Time structure within this region, coming into contact with the world barrier itself. The world’s natural regeneration functions couldn’t mend this structure fast enough, so when the second God’s Guidance fell down, a small gap was broken in the world barrier that drew a small bit of aura from space into the explosive reaction as well.

Everything within the explosion was being heavily shaken, the Nanwu Shaman even felt her very existence being drawn in to become fuel for the explosion.

? NO, I WILL NOT DIE LIKE THIS… ?the Nanwu Shaman’s consciousness was growing unprecedentedly clear and berserk at the same time. Her sense of time was greatly elongated as she experienced, once again, an explosion that could result in her death.

Earlier, she had realized that something wasn’t normal with the Celestials’ barriers, but it wasn’t until her desperation to survive that she noticed what was happening.

During the initial explosion, their barriers formed a tight-knit connection to the explosion and were even absorbing power from it, but as soon as the actual explosion began, they all cut off that connection and entered a defensive posture.

This method to cut off the connection was related to God’s Guidance’s backdoor, which made it difficult for outsiders to solve. Even if the backdoor was in the open, someone would have to endure the explosion several times in order to notice what it was, and such people wouldn’t need a backdoor in the first place.

As one of Lan Shan’s main research products in the Desolate Sacrifice world, God’s Guidance was a resounding success.

The Nanwu Shaman had noticed the backdoor, but she couldn’t access it at all; instead, this train of thought inspired the Nanwu Shaman’s thinking. She had previously been enlightened to turning herself into a disaster, through which she was able to absorb disaster aura from destruction.

This method made it possible for the Nanwu Shaman to rapidly improve the essence of her existence and gain an ability to be immortal as long as her consciousness wasn’t destroyed. However, there was also a drawback to it, which was the fact that disasters would eventually come to an end. Either everything would have already been destroyed or she would no longer be able to spread disaster any further, and once the disaster had ceased, it would also be the end of the Nanwu Shaman without the need for anyone to act.

? Become the disaster, detach from the disaster, and wield the disaster… ?

The Nanwu Shaman’s train of thought was becoming exceptionally clear. In the past, she could only absorb the disaster aura that she personally created, but at this very moment, she realized that the explosion created by God’s Guidance was also a kind of disaster to the world itself.

A large amount of disaster aura once again filled her senses, they didn’t belong to the Nanwu Shaman, but she was able to observe another other aspect of this explosion, the disaster side. She saw a gap opening up, as well as the faint figure in armor standing outside of the gap.

? The Lord of Disaster is the wielder of disaster, but not a disaster themselves ?once again witnessing her Lord, the Nanwu Shaman experienced something completely different compared to before.

The first time she witnessed the Lord of Disaster through the Unseen Offering, the Nanwu Shaman was only a regular shaman, which was equivalent to the second stage of release. With such a massive difference in strength, it was impossible for her to see the true face of her God.

After turning herself into a disaster and becoming a force under the Lord of Disaster’s direct control, she strayed even further from being able to see the face of God; it wasn’t until today when she realized these concepts that she finally managed to see a portion of the Lord of Disaster’s true face, which qualified her to call herself a follower of the Lord of Disaster.

Wearing a tattered suit of armor, standing within boundless black aura, the Lord of Disaster simply stood there outside of the world, not exuding the violence of disasters, or acting as a mindless monster incarnation of destruction.

With a wave of his hand, a presence of disaster that was different from his own landed on the tattered armor’s hand.

Glancing at the Desolate Sacrifice world once again, the Lord of Disaster turned into a gigantic mass of black smoke and disappeared.

Time with space must be calculated through the flow of matter, because it was in complete chaos and would remain chaotic no matter how matter flowed. After an unknown amount of time, in front of a certain blue world, a black streak of smoke attached to a True Spirit and flowed into the world following the True Spirits’ path.

As a black comet streaked across the sky, numerous people looked up. With her first cries, a certain baby girl was born into this world, marking the first moments of the Nanwu Empress who would bring about the hundred-year demon disaster.

According to the information calculated by the Impure Hermit Order members in this world, the Lord of Disaster had discerned that by the time Nanwu created her first disaster, the [Protagonist] would be born, and Nanwu would return to him in less than 100 years.

The Lord of Disaster had yet to manifest his own Pathway, so it was still impossible for him to conquer an entire world. The only possible case where that would occur was if Negary’s consciousness would support him from the inside again, and even then, there would barely be a 10-20% chance of success.

This was similar to how the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon had to spend considerable effort to successfully invade a world. Of course, since they were invading, the nature of their actions was different from the Lord of Disaster’s current actions.

The world spirit had definitely noticed it when Nanwu entered this world, but it wouldn’t stop her as the discerning eyes of a world would not be so shallow. With a bit of information, even Negary could calculate how long it would be until the demonic disaster ended, so the world would naturally also knew.

However, the relationship between a world spirit and an Evil God wasn’t necessarily a hostile one. The Lord of Disaster’s goal was to cause destruction within the world to take a portion of its resources with him, while the world spirit also had thoughts of using outside interference to change the world’s status quo. Essentially, having a little bit of disaster wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

As for how much resources Nanwu would be able to bring back, that would have to depend on her skills. The Lord of Disaster and the world spirit would not interfere in any way, so this would strictly be a war between Nanwu and this world’s future [Protagonist].

Regardless of what happened, the results had already been decided, the demonic disaster would eventually come to an end. This was because after the world’s status quo had been changed, regardless of victory or defeat, the world spirit would still chase the outsiders out.

The difference lay in whether Nanwu was superior and actually won against the [Protagonist], forcing them to borrow the world spirit’s power to ‘banish’ them together with a large amount of resources; or would she be defeated by the [Protagonist], losing both the bait and fishing rod.

This was the method of coexistence for most Evil Gods and world spirits, with every disaster having been planned out ahead of time. Without a Negary to sell out the world’s core information, a disaster like what happened in the Desolate Sacrifice world was literally impossible.
