Chapter 633: The Nature of Truth

As for Xu Zhi, he originally didn't want to bring Medusa along. But since she was so fierce, he simply brought her, knowing that after the Phoenix, Medusa would also soon face a terrible crisis. She, too, would lose her protector and quickly find herself in the same predicament as the Phoenix. After all, following the Phoenix, it would soon be Armin's turn, as her lifespan was nearing its end.

Did you think Medusa was foolish? She knew this, which is why she decisively abandoned everything and rushed over. Having lived for thousands of years, her schemes were naturally very profound! She was a ruthless person. She knew there would soon be no place for her in the Three Realms. Before her lay a rare path to seeking the Dao. With the God of Creation descended, she disregarded everything and took a desperate gamble, leading to such a wild act.

For anyone, this "fat sheep" was extremely tender and plump. Without Armin's protection and completely defenseless during her slumber, she would surely be slaughtered for her meat. Yet Xu Zhi himself couldn't bear to slaughter this "fat sheep." She had always been hidden in the pond in the courtyard, and every time he entered or left, he passed by, always eyeing her greedily. How could he let others benefit from her? Therefore, since she had such an audacious idea, he simply brought her along with him.

"Because I myself suddenly had a bold idea about her," Xu Zhi said.

As for the chaos in the Demon Realm? That was inevitable. Armin's eventual slumber was inevitable. He might as well take Medusa away beforehand, and while Armin, who governed the Underworld, had not yet fallen into her self-induced slumber, let Medusa resolve the turmoil in the Demon Realm in advance. That would be the best approach.

Xu Zhi pondered to himself, speculating about the future. "Medusa has left. The Origin Demonic God's potion system and the Demon Realm's legacy will not be cut off. It's highly probable that existing powerful potion practitioners will be used, their fused potion organs stripped from their bodies, to re-form the Heretic God organization and create a new second-generation Heretic God, a second-generation Origin Demonic God.... As for who will rise to power and contend for the new position, that will depend on individual ability."

"The Demon Realm, governed by Medusa, is about to change hands. The Demon Race Realm is also vying for a new master. The rulers of these two great realms will be reshuffled. It remains to be seen who can achieve Dao fusion.... The pressure on Lin Hongfeng and the others will also be halved.... After all, they control a destructive weapon—the Dao Monarch's divine body. With four deities presiding over their Sea of Consciousness, plus the countless demon races of the Nine Heavens Demon Realm jointly activating this body, others wouldn't dare to harbor designs on it."

Previously, everyone would have targeted them. Even the Martial Dao Palace, controlling the Dao Monarch's body, wouldn't have been able to withstand it! But now, with the Demon Realm standing in the way, the situation would be different. This was one of the reasons Xu Zhi took Medusa away. It wasn't just for Medusa's safety, but also to cause chaos in the Demon Realm. With a group of people vying for control of the Demon Realm, the "hard-boned" Demon Race Realm would no longer be able to act in concert.

He maintained a calm expression, continuously organizing his thoughts. "After all," he mused, "the Demon Race lineage, ever since the ancient Azure Emperor era, has been suppressed for countless years, captured everywhere to be used as mounts, for alchemy, or as medicinal ingredients. It's time for one of their realms to rise. Perhaps they will become a true part of the Six Realms, and the overall structure will be completely stable..."

The resting place of the dead, the Underworld.The cultivation of demonic potions for the Demon Race, the Demon Realm.The cultivation of the Sea of Consciousness for ancient immortals, the Immortal Realm.The Incense Offering Dynasty and Mount Shu, the Mortal Realm.The land of the bizarre and fear, the Void Realm.And now, the newly born Demon Race Realm....

"As for the Origin Demonic God?" he continued. "It's conceivable that the next Origin Demonic God will likely be hereditary. After all, without the blood of immortality, the capable will rule. Except for the first generation, it will be passed down from generation to generation. When the previous generation dies a natural death, the next will become the lord of the Demon Realm..."

Xu Zhi continuously pondered, having agreed to take Medusa away after considering multiple factors. As he organized his thoughts, he stood on the other side of the teleportation gate, on the orchard's side, awaiting Medusa's arrival.

*Woosh.* Through the bright portal, the figure of a petite woman slowly walked in.

Meanwhile, the internet had already exploded.

In "Spore Evolution," the "Wizard Community" sub-forum had originally been very popular, as it led to the Six Paths of Reincarnation and was an open playground for the masses. Although the "Spore Evolution" sandbox itself was still high-end and orthodox, it ultimately had too few players, and its popularity was quickly overshadowed for a time. But at this moment, a piece of news broke the balance: "Dao Monarch's Death, Medusa's Elopement! Why Did the God of Creation Descend?"

Mengmei (Cute Girl) spoke up directly. She posted online, issuing a call to action within the dimensional courtyard of the "Spore Evolution" sandbox: "Brothers still evolving species in the sandbox, pay attention! Keep an eye out. Medusa is very likely to appear there soon! As an insider, I'm telling you a sudden game event might be about to occur. Please prepare yourselves psychologically!"

"What's going on?" Everyone was immediately bewildered. "Medusa, how could she suddenly come to our sandbox? That's too bizarre. Isn't Medusa sleeping in the Demon Realm? How could she suddenly come to the courtyard of Species Origin, to the God of Creation's side? What exactly happened?"

Mengmei paused for a moment, then briefly explained the entire sequence of events, and everyone was instantly astonished! The Dao Monarch is dead? A war over inheritance broke out? Brother System Terminator, a player, leading the Valkyrie Palace, controlled the Dao Monarch's body to resist? And then the era of the world happened to shift, causing the God of Creation to descend?

While this information was immense and within the realm of normal understanding and logical, what followed unsettled everyone and gave them goosebumps.

Medusa chased after him! A screenshot was released, and in that short time, a flood of crazy information impacted every player's mind.

"Holy cow! What a ruthless person of the century!""Most people's legs would turn to jelly, but Medusa is still so badass!""She has the spirit of us players: 'Defy to become immortal, conform to remain mortal.' Back then, we also wanted to sit in the God of Creation's chair. If he can sit there, why can't we?""My fate is mine to control, not heaven's!""Shh! Quiet!""Don't let the God of Creation overhear us."

A group of oddly shaped trees and small hills whispered and muttered to each other, still not forgetting their grand plan of counterattack, before continuing to watch the external forum.

Then someone asked, "Holy moly, this isn't Medusa's first challenge. She's done this before?""The God of Creation even once gave her a flower?""Mengmei, be strong! I've calculated, and since you were born all green, your destiny was long ago sealed to be difficult. You were fated to face a calamity, and this is the outcome! I have a treasure here, which, if worn, can help you resolve this calamity.... (Forgiveness hat.jpg)""Serves her right! Why didn't she chase after him? (Picking nose emoji)""No choice, she's such a chicken. Normally, she's full of flirtatious and provocative talk, but at the critical moment, she instantly chickens out! Scared as a mouse!"

Mengmei's face instantly darkened. "These guys just know how to be keyboard warriors. In that situation, they definitely wouldn't dare to go either. No sane person would just charge in, okay?!"

She certainly wouldn't admit she was a coward. She widened her eyes and said, "How can you baseless slander someone's integrity like this...? Can matters of love be called cowardice? I call this modesty! I am someone who loves Him, but Medusa? She's just pursuing truth, merely lusting after His body. She's base!"

Everyone burst into laughter. "What's the point of all your provocative talk now? At the critical moment, you instantly chickened out again."

Among all players, Mengmei was widely acknowledged as the biggest coward, even a chicken.
