The Growth of a God

Chapter 422 - 8: The Rule-Breaking Evil God

When Ao Xing received the news from the central hall, it was already dusk.

The Mountain and Sea people, whom it had specially marked earlier, all went home from work at the same time and then fell into a long slumber.

Other than their breathing and heartbeat being maintained, their consciousness and brainwaves had already stopped, as if they never had any self-awareness.

Yet their souls still existed, only they were being tainted with a chaotic hue.

"Why didn’t you tell me about this sooner!"

Suppressing the anger within, Ao Xing rushed to the nearest Mountain and Sea person’s home.

Accompanying it was the Myconid responsible for registering his identity back then.

"I’m sorry, this was my negligence."

"Because the situation happened too suddenly, plus I was worried you might recklessly come into conflict with that God..."

Without hiding its responsibility, the Myconid spoke with deep regret.

If only it had trusted Ao Xing’s judgment, if only it had taken the information given by the other party more seriously, things would not have developed to this extent.

"However, that God dared to attack the Mountain and Sea people, that is a provocation against the entire Mountain and Sea Civilization!"

In fact, the Myconid had never thought any God would do such a thing in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

If the God’s previous actions could be viewed as seeking faith, not inherently a serious criminal act.

Then when a large number of Mountain and Sea people mysteriously fell into slumber, with even their souls undergoing mutation, the God’s actions were beyond what the Mountain and Sea Civilization could tolerate.

The Mountain and Sea people are a proud bunch.

This pride is engraved in their very bones.

They never believed that Gods were supreme beings, nor that they must kneel and kowtow beneath their feet.

To the Mountain and Sea Civilization, Gods represent the future and hope, but definitely not supreme rulers.

The Mountain and Sea Civilization’s only faith is in the Creator.

The highest being who brought them out of savagery and into the hall of civilization.

Beyond the Creator, other beliefs are neither evil nor heretical, but they are never the spiritual refuge pursued by the Mountain and Sea people.

"Let it be, ultimately it’s all my responsibility, it was my carelessness."

Upon hearing the Myconid’s words, Ao Xing’s anger instantly vanished, replaced by a sense of ruination and regret.

After all, Ao Xing had always intended to play the long game, much like the Myconid’s mindset.

It can only be said that this time, the God didn’t follow the usual path, catching everyone off guard.

"I’m starting to suspect...whether this God is indeed a God of the Mountain and Sea Realm."

While blaming itself, these negative emotions had no way of affecting Ao Xing’s thoughts.

Ignoring the Mountain and Sea Realm’s unspoken rules, so blatantly infecting the souls of the Mountain and Sea people...

From all aspects, the God’s actions were beyond the normal scope, more like certain beings from the Outer Realm.

"That makes the situation much more serious."

This time, without hesitation, the Myconid chose to trust Ao Xing’s judgment.

"I will immediately notify the Zhiku and have them send assistance."

At this point, the Myconid’s tone paused slightly, then softly asked.

"Should we temporarily seal off this area now?"

Shaking its head decisively in refusal, Ao Xing certainly understood the subtext in the Myconid’s words.

"No, people like him who have fallen into a coma are present in every corner of this city..."

"Unless you seal off the entire city, merely sealing one area holds no meaning."

"Since it’s my task that has had a mishap, I will naturally resolve it."

Hearing this, the Myconid furrowed its brows and hesitantly spoke.

"But... entering that God’s domain rashly with the situation unclear, even you may not fare well."

"Moreover, given your size, entering that house is simply impossible."

The Myconid was indeed worried about the comatose Mountain and Sea people, but it was equally concerned about the impulsive Ao Xing.

In the current situation, that unknown God appears to harbor malicious intent toward the Mountain and Sea Realm, and if Ao Xing enters its domain, the outcome might not be favorable.

Not to mention, Ao Xing’s current size indeed doesn’t allow it to enter the home of the comatose Mountain and Sea person.

The person was just a regular-sized Winged man, living in a standard home.

"Don’t worry, I’m the most senior investigator at the Evil God Processing Center!"

Ao Xing smiled at the Myconid, and its body began to rapidly shrink visibly to the naked eye.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle...

In the blink of an eye, Ao Xing, wrapped in lightning, transformed into a small giant with a Dragon Head and human body.

Though still over three meters tall, it was much smaller compared to its previously enormous form.

At least, in its current form, entering the Winged man’s home was no longer an issue.

"I almost forgot, the investigators at the Evil God Processing Center have all undergone training in size-altering magic."

Seeing this, realizing it couldn’t persuade Ao Xing, the Myconid sighed one last time.

"In that case, I won’t try to stop you."

"But I’ll say it again, once you sense danger, please leave that house immediately."

"The Mountain and Sea Civilization has never feared any external threat, and if that threat is a God, our retribution is certain!"

With a smile and a nod, Ao Xing said no more, stepping directly into the Winged man’s house.

..............................

At the same time, in every corner of the Heavenly Pearl.

The Mountain and Sea people who had also fallen into a coma seemed to sense Ao Xing’s presence and suddenly opened their eyes simultaneously.

They were eyes with white pupils, veins bulging.

Among them, the Five-Tailed Fox, who first noticed Ao Xing’s probing, appeared the most fearsome.

The Five-Tailed Fox’s five tails were constantly waving, and flecks of dark light spread rapidly from her, enveloping the entire house.

Under its influence, the home Ao Xing had just entered also began to emit the same light.

Engulfed by this dark light, an exotic Realm’s rules swiftly descended, differing from the current world.

"Ao Xing!"

Witnessing this, the Myconid, realizing the gravity of the situation, instinctively called out, leading to a more terrifying scene.

Under the eyes of most Mountain and Sea people in the Heavenly Pearl, the buildings cloaked in the dark light started to sink into an unknown domain, as if into a quagmire.
