Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God
chapter-584

By relying on his understanding of history, Jiu Po stole a part of the Earth Realm in advance to create his astral world, practically stabilizing his position as the strongest person in the Myriad Heavens, a title he then held for tens of thousands of years.

This continued all the way until Gu Nan appeared. By relying on the powerful Evil God Temple, he’d caught up with Jiu Po in merely a hundred years.

If not for the Stigma of Life and Death, he would be able to completely conquer the two major worlds. No one would be able to stop him.

But in comparison, Gu Nan's rise was clearly filled with more danger.

Not having the ability to predict the future meant all the situations he encountered were unpredictable. It wasn’t like Gu Nan had never encountered a life-or-death crisis here, and this was even after he tried to avoid life-threatening dangers.

People with the ability to predict history wouldn’t experience this. As long as they didn’t court death like Zero and had a slightly more cautious personality, they wouldn’t encounter too big of a crisis and could simply avoid it in advance.

Gu Nan even suspected that there were actually other transmigrators similar to him, except most of them probably died while trying to grow stronger.

So right now, it was very important to confirm which category Molag fell under.

Gu Nan didn't act rashly. He didn't want to alert the other party for the time being. Instead, he read through Molag’s background bit by bit, including every step of his rise.

This process wasn’t complicated. After all, it had only been a little over two years since Molag's rise, and there were only a few major operations to pay attention to.

Judging from Molag's history, he should be a transmigrator with knowledge of the future similar to Jiu Po and Daoist Yellow Springs, but he didn’t seem to have much direct help from the Origin World.

The cause behind every step of Molag's improvement could be seen. Although his actions were highly goal-oriented, one would eventually realize that his goal was always resources that could enhance his power.

On the other hand, there was something about Molag that was incongruous with his environment.

He knew many abilities, moves, and techniques that were not from contemporary times, and he also spoke some words that others couldn’t understand.

Perhaps not even Molag himself was aware of this, but they were all faithfully recorded by the intelligence organization under Daoist Yellow Springs and reported to the two currently present.

"Indeed, it’s very possible that he’s a kindred soul." Gu Nan exhaled a long breath. If the other party wasn’t a regressor—which had never appeared before—then he must undoubtedly come from the Origin World.

"It's not a possibility; it's a certainty." Upon hearing this, Daoist Yellow Springs revealed a strange smile and pointed to the Origin World below. "I found the civilization he came from."

……

World of Gods.

Molag looked at the brand-new Divine Kingdom and couldn't help letting out a heavy sigh of relief, finally feeling a little more relaxed.

The aesthetics of these natives who lived just before the Cataclysm were so weird that if they were allowed to build structures freely, Molag would not be able to live in them at all.

It had been two years since he transmigrated to this world. He’d grown from a mortal to a god. This speed was already incredibly fast, but Molag still wasn’t satisfied.

If this was his previous life’s game, his progress would definitely be faster.

That's right. Molag came from the Origin World. He once played an online game called 《Myriad Gods》, and the backstory in the game was exactly the same as this world’s history.

The point in time when Molag transmigrated to this world was the same as when players first started the game.

The game’s background at this time was that the seemingly peaceful World of Gods was about to encounter the greatest Cataclysm in history. The terrifying Evil God descended and slaughtered all the greater gods.

Although the two Greater Gods of Light and Darkness finally sealed the Evil God at the cost of their own lives, the World of Gods was still greatly damaged, and everything was in ruins.

Though the most powerful enemy was temporarily sealed, the external enemies were still powerful. All the players needed to work hard to build a homeland that belonged to the gods.

This was the first main story arc for the game after players passed the tutorial period: “The Evil God Destroys the World”.

By the time Molag transmigrated here, the online game had already entered its seventh arc. It was none other than players forming their own guilds and preparing to counterattack foreign enemies.

Molag was the guild leader of the Sunrise Sunset Guild, one of the three largest player guilds. He’d conquered countless dungeons and gotten many world bosses’ first kill achievements. He had a very deep understanding of the game.

《Myriad Gods》 was a very interesting game.

Most of the game was set after the Cataclysm, leaving only a small amount of time for players to adapt before the Evil God annihilates the world.

During this period, only the top players were allowed to become gods, and they would undoubtedly become the backbone of the player army, leading the rest of the players forward.

It was precisely because of this setting that Molag—a professional player—had room to use his own abilities instead of seeing the pay to win players take everything.

However, after the Cataclysm, most players would gradually grow into gods, building their homes while engaging in battles with foreign enemies. This was also the origin of the name 《Myriad Gods》.

Of course, battles among players were also essential.

The natural division of the Light and Darkness Factions also divided players into two camps, and there had never been a lack of conflict between them.

‘But none of that exists anymore…’

Molag looked at the sky in the distance and sighed softly. Because he was the only player in this world, the important responsibility of saving the world could only be entrusted to him.

It was indeed a very joyous thing to not have to compete with thousands of players for resources, but it was also very difficult to defeat powerful foreign enemies by himself.

But now that it had already come to this, Molag could only do his best, and at the same time, unite all the forces that could be united.

"Then, Your Highness Karina." Molag looked at Karina in front of him with a faint smile on his face. "Are you interested in my proposal?"

Molag approached Karina on his own. It was absolutely necessary to win Karina over to his side. This War Goddess would be the main force opposing foreign invaders in the future.

In fact, the third arc for the game was called the “Rise of the God of War”.

Molag, who was familiar with history, knew that contact with Karina was one of the main storylines, and if he wanted to receive her help, he must always stay by her side.

There was a lucky person in his previous life who stayed with Karina when the Cataclysm came and successfully dissuaded her from directly facing the Evil God. Ultimately, that player managed to gain the unconditional trust and friendship of the War Goddess.

So in the third arc, this player almost became a true protagonist.

……

Just as Molag made contact with Karina, what he didn't know was that two figures were slowly descending onto the Origin World, in a civilization called "Tilvence".

"Molag mentioned the word Tilvence several times in conversations with his subordinates. Judging from the context, it should be a place name," Daoist Yellow Springs said with a smile.

"That’s why you found this place." Gu Nan studied the civilization before him. It had just started interstellar travel and was somewhat similar to the past Earth. Soon, a smile appeared on his face.
