All Gods: Starting with Two Families

Chapter 72 Pantheon MergerThe suffocating spatial fluctuations of the Bloody Arena slowly subsided.

Zhou Zheng’s Divine Thought returned to the Orc Royal Court, and a strong sense of exhaustion surged like a tide; two consecutive high-intensity Divine Thought confrontations and commands had almost drained his energy.

At the remnants of the two spatial channels that had connected to the Necrotic and Demon Divine Domains, two huge cards, tightly bound by dark red energy chains, were floating.

The cards were suffused with a deep and eerie purple halo, and their fronts were branded with the miniatures of those two now-extinct Divine Domains.

One was an endless wasteland of white bones, and the other was a dark and gloomy Underground City.

They radiated the majestic energy fluctuations unique to an a-rank voucher, but also carried a heart-palpitating, plundered primitive power.

This was the loot of the Bloody Arena—everything belonging to the losers!

Before Zhou Zheng could examine them carefully, he discovered that waiting for him ahead, in addition to the Sheep God, whose face was as heavy and weary as ever, was actually another entity.

It was an elegant projection of a deity composed of countless fresh flower petals and emerald vines interwoven together.

She radiated a refreshing, exuberant vitality and a peaceful aura, which was completely out of place with the barbaric atmosphere of the surrounding Orc God System.

The Sheep God’s expression was gloomier than usual, and his huge horns seemed to droop a little.

He didn’t say much, just raised his hand and pushed two things toward Zhou Zheng.

One was a drop of blood that was constantly rolling and boiling!

It seemed to possess its own Life, and as it flew toward Zhou Zheng, it constantly transformed into various phantom beast shapes like tigers, lions, giant bears, and falcons, emitting the most primitive and domineering Bloodline pressure—[blood of the beast king]!

The other was an ancient scroll, seemingly tanned from some kind of powerful beast hide.

The surface was drawn with countless mysterious and unpredictable, slightly twisting basic patterns in dark golden blood; just by making eye contact with them, one could feel the vast power system and knowledge contained within—[Orc God Rune Sketch]!

”Congratulations.” The Sheep God’s voice was hoarse.

Zhou Zheng solemnly accepted these two precious rewards that concerned his future path.

After he put away the rewards, the deity composed of flower petals elegantly stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said in a soft yet clear voice: ”Young deity, you may call me the ’Spring God’.”

She got straight to the point, and an energy diagram composed of soft green light and colorful flower petals, with a structure just as complex and mysterious but completely different in style, appeared in her palm: ”I also have a [God Rune Sketch] here that I can give you for free.”

She paused and added: ”Of course, it belongs to the Nature God System.”

Zhou Zheng was stunned, instantly understanding why the Sheep God’s expression was so ugly.

The Orc God System had gone through a catastrophe, and there was barely one in a hundred Reserve Deity left; now that the Nature God System was poaching in front of them, it was tantamount to adding frost to snow.

He secretly glanced at the Sheep God and found that although the other party’s face was livid, he did not speak to stop it.

Zhou Zheng understood in his heart that allowing the Nature God System to act this way was probably one of the prices paid to get them to intervene and mediate.

Given the background of the Nature God System and the current miserable state of the Orc God System, there were probably quite a few who would be tempted.

”Many thanks for your kindness, Lady Spring God.” Zhou Zheng suppressed the waves in his heart and respectfully but firmly declined, ”But I have already made my choice.”

If it were before the Divine War, he might have really considered it.

He had always been cautious, and the Nature God System’s path of loathing war and valuing management and balance certainly sounded safer.

But the fierce victory in the pure flesh-and-blood slaughter against the demons just now had completely awakened the wildness and desire for conquest buried deep in his Bloodline, belonging to the Orc God System!

He could not imagine himself laying down his claws and fangs from now on to become a ”pacifist” who did not contend with the world.

”The path of a deity is to plunder the heavens and worlds!” Zhou Zheng’s gaze became incomparably firm.

Upon being rejected by him, the Spring God was not angry; instead, a deeper sense of appreciation appeared on her face composed of flower petals.

She smiled lightly and took out another A-rank card that radiated a rich aura of Life and shimmered with an emerald green luster.

”Since you have made up your mind, please be sure to accept this item and use it before you ignite your divine fire.” She handed the card over.

Seeing the Sheep God nod slightly, Zhou Zheng accepted it. When his Divine Thought swept over the card’s information, he was immediately taken aback—

[Nature God System Random Kin Egg (A-rank)]!

The Spring God seemed to have already anticipated his reaction and said with a light laugh: ”Since we will be family from now on, how can your Divine Domain not have our Nature God System’s kin? It will bring you new possibilities.”

Zhou Zheng held this hot potato of a card, his mind unable to process it for a moment.

Where did this ”family” come from?

Yet he heard the Sheep God next to him let out an incredibly complex sigh, and he slowly said: ”...The Orc God System is about to merge with the Nature God System.”

The Spring God elegantly interrupted him and corrected: ”Dear Sheep God, it is not a merger. We are joining hands to build a brand new God System that is more powerful, more inclusive, and has more potential—it is called the [Myriad Spirits Divine System]!”

”All original God Systems that join the Myriad Spirits Divine System will retain their autonomy and culture, and share resources and knowledge!”

”Say what you will...”

The Sheep God had no intention of arguing over such titles; he looked at the still somewhat bewildered Zhou Zheng, his eyes filled with encouragement and expectation, ”These grand plans have nothing to do with you for the time being. Your most important task now is to digest what you have gained and prepare yourself.”

He raised his hoof, pointed into the distance, and his voice became firm and powerful: ”Go, go and ignite your divine fire, go and cross that final boundary, and become a Formal Deity!”
