Chapter 337 [The Paradoxical Clown] Personally orchestrating the scheme? Xia Fa was astonished!

The marbles were only the size of a thumb and had a peculiar black color.

This blackness is like the depths of the night, the tranquility of the starry sky, and even more so, the deepest secret hidden in everyone's heart.

"The eternal secret —"

Xia Fa murmured, extending his index and middle fingers to pinch the quiet, black marble.

He had heard that although the form of the "Eternal Certificate" could change, this change was not fixed and was purely random.

In other words, within a single day, some kind of "eternal certificate" might first become a glass, then a house, then ink on a piece of paper, and finally disappear as a rumor.

It is also possible that hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years will pass and the current form will remain unchanged.

Therefore, Xia Fa was unsure whether the [Eternal Secret], in the form of a tranquil black glass bead, would suddenly change form one day.

However, I'm not worried that it will run away because of this.

The reason is simple: when a transcendent being and the certificate of eternity develop a deep sense of closeness and attraction, the transcendent being will not easily leave until the transcendent being perishes.

Of course, not everyone can generate this feeling of closeness and attraction with the [Eternal Proof]. The minimum requirement is that one must be a Mysterious Emperor.

Moreover, a Mysterious Emperor can only keep one kind of "Eternal Certificate" at any given time. If he is lucky enough to obtain a second one, then one of them will be lost.

Unless, upon receiving the second option, one immediately chooses one to absorb and accommodate.

Gathering his fleeting thoughts, Xia Fa's eyes revealed an irrepressible joy.

Originally, he only wanted to kill the Crimson Agent; nothing else mattered.

Especially given that he already knew he couldn't absorb or contain that [eternal plunder].

However, Xia Fa never expected that this Crimson Agent would be so powerful, possessing not only the incomplete [Eternal Plunder], but also [Eternal Secret]!

This is a huge windfall! They've gotten a certificate of eternity for free. The only question is, what's the secret to this eternity?

What rank is it within the eternal certificate?

That's right, there are different levels of Eternal Tokens, which is easy to understand. For example, the [Eternal Attack] from the Primordial Eternal Sea is definitely more powerful than Norton Dragon's [Eternal Fury]; they're not even in the same league.

According to what Xia Fa knows now, [Eternal Attack], [Eternal Plunder], and [Eternal Critical Strike] are all among the dozens of the most powerful Eternal credentials.

Therefore, it is very important to figure out the grade of the [Secret of Eternity], since even if you become a true god, you can only choose three kinds of eternal credentials. If you choose the wrong one, there is no going back.

While thinking, Xia Fa grabbed with one hand the Soul Destroyer Revolver, made of bone and flesh, which was next to the grayish-white corpse of the Crimson Agent that had been split in two.

Extinguishing bullets are readily available on the market, but they are quite expensive, costing 100,000 gold pounds each.

But with my current wealth, I can buy tens of thousands of them and use them without any problem.

Relatively speaking, what is truly rare and precious is this kind of high-ranking Soul-Slaying Revolver.

"A fragmented, mysterious artifact?"

As soon as he got his hands on it, Xia Fa immediately sensed its grade, and a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

With his current status as a quasi-god, the annihilation bullets fired from this annihilation revolver can destroy any being below the level of a god once they hit the enemy's head.

Once I become a god, I will be able to annihilate any being of godly rank.

I just don't know if it will work on the Bronze Cleaner.

On the other hand, how to ensure that the extermination bullets accurately hit their heads, given the methods of beings of divine status, is also a major problem.

After all, those are powerful beings who, at the very least, possess two Overlord-level Secret Contracts plus a [Certificate of Eternity], granting them various Secret Contract abilities and authority.

Xia Fa searched carefully for a while and found that there was nothing else on the Crimson Agent's body. So he casually summoned the Mercury Flame and burned the Crimson Agent's corpse clean.

He couldn't help but admire the Scarlet Agent, who, having faced so many enemies, was truly the most intelligent and cunning being.

At the very beginning, when he was engaged in a full-scale battle with the Crimson Agents, he used the divine combat technique [Tree Realm] to quietly scatter seeds all over the floor of the arena.

Therefore, they were able to successfully launch a sneak attack when the Crimson Agents were preparing to fully unleash [Eternal Plunder] at all costs.

It must be said that the Scarlet Agent's acting in the few seconds after being ambushed was incredibly realistic, as if he truly regretted being killed because of a miscalculation.

Unfortunately, His backup plan could not escape the perception of His own spiritual intuition.

Originally, Xia Fa genuinely believed that killing the second entity created by the Crimson Agent using secret techniques would allow him to completely destroy Him.

Unexpectedly, he had a third entity, and there were actually two of them: one was an illusion that was so realistic that it could be mistaken for the real thing, and the other was his true body.

If the third entity of the Crimson Agent were to escape, given the terrifying regenerative power of the Extraordinary Lord, Xiu would probably recover to normal in less than half a day.

"Finally, it pretended to accept its fate and talked to me. Then the second and third entities tried to escape quietly. At first, I didn't notice at all. In fact, my red and silver star shell and star bubble perception were not triggered—this must be because it used the authority effect of [Eternal Concealment], right?"

"If it weren't for my [Pillar of Mind Storm] suddenly discovering that the soul and will of this third entity in front of me were not right—"

Thinking back to the beginning, when the Crimson Agent faked his death and then fired a cold shot from behind, he hadn't sensed the bullet's appearance or approach at all. He guessed that was probably the effect of the [Eternal Secret] authority.

If it weren't for the fact that the first secret of his own Singularity had been resurrected and could be set up in three parts, he probably would have fallen victim to it.

"So, this [Eternal Secret] is actually quite powerful, whether used for offense or escape, especially for surprise attacks—"

Xia Fa felt that this unexpected joy was truly delightful. After thinking for a moment, he put away the Soul-Destroying Revolver. As for the needle-shaped, incomplete [Eternal Plunder] and the marble-shaped [Eternal Secret], he simply cut open his side waist, put them into his flesh, and carried them close to his body.

Then, with a thought, he released the red-silver star shell and the star bubble.

Xia Fa prepared to first ensure the smooth completion of the family head's grand banquet, and then thoroughly study the various applications and effects that the power of the [Eternal Secret] authority could bring.

"As you all have surely seen, the Crimson Agent is dead."

The moment Xiafa reappeared from the arena, Emperor Shalatu's rather serious voice rang out in the hall.

With a stern and solemn gesture, he made the announcement.

"So, having secured his position as head of the family, is there anyone else who wishes to challenge him?"

This statement is tantamount to asking a question: Xia Falian killed a transcendent monarch, which means he almost has the strength of a Mysterious Emperor, and perhaps even stronger.

Under such circumstances, which member of the Gilgamesh family would dare to be so foolish as to challenge him?

On the other hand, many of the tens of thousands of guests who came this time were influential figures who posed a threat to the region, which led to some doubts about Xia Fa's young age.

But now that they know his identity as a Heavenly Mandate Holy Spirit and have witnessed him kill a transcendent monarch, these important figures no longer dare to question Xia Fa, and are filled with deep awe.

"I apologize for the bloody killings during the grand banquet; I hope they won't spoil your appetite."

Xia Fa stood in the center of the arena, which was also the center of the entire palace hall. He smiled and joked with everyone, then flashed back to the stone platform.

Emperor Shalatu then raised his hand and pressed down, causing the arena to rise with a rumble before disappearing into the palace dome without a trace.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Just then, the hall, which was about to become lively again, was filled with shrill applause.

Everyone turned around and saw the Fearful Witch King.

Clearly, even though Shafa killed the Crimson Agent, the Fear Witch King was still not very afraid of Shafa.

After all, He is a mysterious emperor who possesses a kind of "proof of eternity," and even now, no one knows what kind of "proof of eternity" He possesses.

If a war were to break out, this would be a fatal intelligence and information gap.

Upon seeing this, Patriarch Heimdall's gaze darkened. Given his volatile temper, it was one thing for the Dread Witch King to provoke trouble in the first place, but now that all the people he brought had lost and died, the Dread Witch King still seemed ready to cause more trouble. Patriarch Heimdall truly couldn't tolerate it.

Even if this causes a conflict between the two churches, at worst he can go back to the Supreme Law Lord, admit his mistakes and accept punishment, and spend a few hundred years in solitary contemplation.

Just as He was about to stand up, it was Pope Hercules who stopped Him, shook his head slightly, and gestured with his eyes that He should not act rashly and fall into the trap of the Fearful Witch King.

Finally, the Fearful Witch King spoke again with that wry smile: "What a magnificent battle, Mr. Shafar Gilgamesh. You should thank me, shouldn't you? After this battle, your fame will spread throughout the entire universe, and no one below the gods will dare to provoke you again."

Xia Fa's expression remained unchanged: "Oh, is that so?"

Emperor Shalatu originally wanted to step forward and deal with the cunning and fearful Witch King on behalf of his great-grandson, but looking at his great-grandson's tall figure, he thought about it and chose to trust him and entrust everything to his great-grandson.

The Fearful Witch King said without crying or laughing, "Of course, it's just a pity that the third Overlord-level secret pact you signed is actually the [Arcane Singularity]."

,well----"

Upon hearing this, Xia Fa's heart skipped a beat, but he feigned anger on his face: "What do you mean by that sarcastic tone?"

Seeing that he seemed angry, the Fear Witch King quickly raised his hands and waved them in front of him, making it seem as if he didn't want to cause trouble: "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it. I'm sure you know, or rather, all of you who have signed thirty covenants know, which overlord-level covenant comes after the [Arcane Singularity]."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Heimdall looked thoughtful, Pope Hercules seemed quite puzzled, but Patriarch Osius and Emperor Sharatul both frowned, as if they had suddenly remembered something.

As for the others in the hall, only a very small number of people, such as the delicate yet majestic puppet queen Lumir, and the other extraordinary lords and mysterious emperors at the most prestigious table, realized what was going on.

The Fearful Witch King suddenly stopped his half-crying, half-laughing expression, lowered his head slightly, shook his head and sighed, as if he was truly feeling extremely regretful: "It's not really a secret—except for the name of that overlord-level secret contract, which I dare not say. However, I once heard Lord [Supreme Law] say that since more than nine thousand years ago, that overlord-level secret contract has been completely used up, and it will never be born again."

As He spoke, He looked up at Xia Fa, a hint of pity in His expression: "So, Mr. Xia Fa, you'll only ever reach the level of a follower of God. That's what I regret. With your status as a Heavenly Mandate Holy Spirit, you could at least have become an Outer God. Alas—"

These words caused an uproar in the room.

Although the Fearful Witch King did not explicitly state what the next overlord-level secret agreement that Shafa should sign was, those present were mostly intelligent people, and they immediately guessed it.

The other seven overlord-level secret contracts have never been known to be exhausted.

Therefore, without a doubt, the next hegemonic secret agreement that Xia Fa should sign will definitely be one of those two unknown ones!

However, no one expected that one of the two unknown, overlord-level secret contracts had already been completely used up.

Immediately, everyone's gaze towards Xia Fa changed. Although it was still full of respect and awe, it also carried an extreme sense of regret and remorse.

After all, if the next hegemonic secret contract he was about to sign could no longer be found, then this Heavenly Saint Spirit would indeed be stuck at the level of a follower of God for the rest of his life.

Not only the guests present, but even patriarchs and popes like Heimdall shook their heads and sighed, or remained silent. Clearly, they had all heard about this from the gods they served.

Seeing the positive effect of his words, the Fearful Witch King was secretly pleased, but his face still showed extreme regret: "However, Mr. Shafa, it's already quite an achievement to become a god. I might need your help again in the future, hahaha, that's settled then."

Having said that, he turned and prepared to leave.

Xia Fa remained calm throughout.

This was seen by everyone, especially by those extraordinary monarchs and mysterious emperors, who couldn't help but admire him. They all thought that Xia Fatai remained calm even when a mountain collapsed in front of him, and he truly had the demeanor of a patriarch of a divinely favored family.

After all, if it were them, they wouldn't be able to remain so calm knowing that their future was hopeless.

However, no one present knew that at that moment, Xia Fa was overjoyed.

"【Paradox Joker】You're so wicked—you really didn't choose the wrong name—"

Xia Fa once thought that the name "Paradox Joker" originated from a secret pact like that of "Mysterious Joker," or from the clowns' beliefs.

But now, he discovers that this god who is so kind to him really does have the ability to tease and play tricks on people, and the ability is incredibly high.

For example, now he finally understands why the Paradox Clown insisted on making him pretend to reveal that his third overlord-level secret contract was the Mystic Singularity.

So it turns out that no new "miracle ideas" have been generated in the entire universe!

First, this confirmed his previous hypothesis; indeed, the [Mysterious Singularity] was a [Miracle Fantasy].

The prerequisite for signing a top-tier secret agreement is that once the [Mystic Singularity] is signed, the [Miracle Fantasy] agreement will definitely be signed.

On the other hand, Xia Fa truly hadn't expected that the entire universe's [miracle fantasies] had already been exhausted—

"Hmm—that makes sense. The reason why the last three of the ten overlord-level secret contracts are unknown is probably because they are so rare."

"It's unclear how many copies of the Eighth Secret [Mystic Singularity] exist, but until now, no one has ever mentioned that they've been produced."

"As for the tenth secret contract, the Primordial Secret Explanation, there is only one in the entire universe, and it has been more than 30,000 years before it is about to be released."

"So, it makes sense that the Ninth Secret Contract [Miracle Fantasy], which was stuck in the middle, was already exhausted since there weren't many left."

"However, I guess those fake Nine Great Gods and Golden Cleaners didn't expect that there was another one in the Land of Stagnant Time, sealed under the Pillar of the Ancient Gods, and that I had already signed it—"

The more Xia Fa analyzed, the more he saw the hypocritical expression on the Fear Witch King's face, the more he wanted to laugh.

At the same time, he also realized how terrifying the Paradox Joker's scheme was.

First of all, since the Crimson Agents already know about the Cleaners' existence, they have probably already joined the Cleaners' side.

Or rather, the Crimson Agent was not qualified to join the Cleaners; it is likely that the Outer God he worshipped, the Tree of Fear, joined the Cleaners' camp along with the True God, the Temporary Reality.

Then, the Crimson Agents are qualified to do things for the [Temporary Reality] and are rewarded for it, but once the task is completed, they are discarded.

After all, He was merely a transcendent ruler, and could never become a god in his lifetime, so He was no longer of much use.

Therefore, based on this speculation, the Fear Witch King has most likely already joined the Cleaners' camp; otherwise, he wouldn't have personally led the Crimson Executors to cause trouble.

In this way, the Fear Witch King will definitely report this information—that he, as the Holy Spirit of Destiny, possesses the third Overlord-level secret contract, which is the Arcane Singularity—to the [Temporary Reality] or the Cleaners.

In that case, neither the "temporary reality" nor the cleaners will have time to bother them.

After all, on the surface, he was just a Heavenly Spirit destined to remain a follower of God for life. In comparison, those beings in the Celestial Spirit Realm who had already become followers of Gods or Outer Gods were much more threatening.

Most importantly, this way, his connection with that "special being who signed four hegemonic-level secret contracts" could be directly eliminated.

All I can say is that he truly lives up to his name as the "Paradox Joker." With just a casual remark, he managed to manipulate so many powerful beings into his scheme.

Even if the Fearful Witch King doesn't report it, there are still tens of thousands of guests present. As they return to their respective life planets, the news will quickly spread throughout the universe. The fake Nine Great Gods and the Cleaners will also hear about it and be able to rule out the suspicion that he is the one who signed the four overlord-level secret contracts.

In a sense, the Paradox Joker's scheme this time was truly meticulous and flawless.

As Xia Fa was thinking, he suddenly realized that tens of thousands of eyes in the room were all staring at him.

It seems they are waiting for their own reaction.

He thought for a moment, then put on a calm expression and secretly used his extraordinary power to make the veins on his forehead bulge, pretending to suppress his anger. Then, a smile with gritted teeth appeared on his face: "Your Excellency, Lord Fearful Witch King, whether you are an external god or not, there are some things you don't need to worry about. After all, everyone has their own destiny."

Upon hearing this, the Fearful Witch King finally smiled, revealing that He could indeed make normal expressions: "Hahaha, that makes sense. Well then, Mr. Shafa, I won't bother you any longer. I'll take my leave now."

Just as He was about to turn around, the Fearful Witch King's body suddenly froze in that instant.

The next moment, an immense divine power descended from the sky, circled the Fear Witch King once, and then immediately disappeared.

Although the power of the righteous god came and went in an instant, everyone present truly felt that time seemed to have stopped for that brief moment.

It felt as if the weight of the entire universe had pressed down on everyone, chilling them to the bone, making it impossible for them to breathe or move.

It was as if, in the face of that divine power, everyone had become a tiny insect, easily crushed to dust, and there was no way to resist it.

Because it was the power of a righteous god, no one present lost control.

The nine righteous gods are all able to control their own pollution of reality; otherwise, they would not have been able to walk in the real world for the first 20,000 years of the universe.

Of course, this immense divine power was not faked at all; everyone experienced it firsthand. In fact, no one could fake such an effect.

The power of true gods can only be wielded by beings holding the rank of true god, and in this world, there are only—

Nine Great Gods!

Everyone present was startled, and the name of the righteous god [Brief Reality] immediately flashed into their minds.

At the same time, I was filled with immense curiosity.

Just now, Lord [Brief Reality] clearly issued a divine decree. So, what exactly was that decree, and why is He trying to frighten the Witch King?

What extremely important matter could possibly require Lord [Brief Reality] to personally instruct the Fearful Witch King to handle it, and why in such a hurry?

At this moment, the Fearful Witch King turned around, his smile returning to his face.

Regardless of the circumstances, even though [Brief Reality] has sided with the Cleaners, most of the people present are still unaware of this.

In this situation, the fact that the [Brief Reality] Lord personally bestowed a divine decree upon Him in front of all the great figures in the universe is tantamount to him endorsing Him, greatly enhancing His prestige.

Without hesitation, the Fearful Witch King relayed the instructions that Lord [Brief Reality] had just given him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must have all seen it just now."

"I won't hide it, the [Brief Reality] Master did indeed come to me and entrusted me with a very, very important matter."

"In a sense, this matter is closely related to the vital interests of everyone present."
