From Baron to Lord

Allen thought for a while, then mobilized a trace of pseudo-divine power from the trident in his hand to his hand, and suddenly a layer of blue light appeared on his hand.

This blue light quickly spread to the groove, and patterns also appeared on the door, slowly opening it.

Allen took a few steps back, watching the door open.

Soon, the entire door disappeared, and the things inside were unobstructed.

Contrary to what Allen thought, it wasn't a densely packed room inside, but a not-so-small hall, just this one room.

There was nothing inside, only a spot of light floating in the very center.

Allen slowly walked in. The hall was very different from the outside. The overall color was khaki, looking steady and heavy.

For safety's sake, Allen didn't go to the middle immediately, but first looked at the surrounding walls.

It was at this time that he discovered that there were many murals on the walls.

The style of these murals was very different from the Origin World and the outside continent, and seemed to be recording a story.

Allen slowly looked at it and found that it might be a mythological story.

The first picture was about the birth of the world, which Allen could understand.

The next picture showed people appearing in the newly born world. Allen was stunned for a moment before realizing that they might be the gods.

Seeing this, Allen became interested. After all, Allen now claimed to be a guy watched by the gods, and his subordinates even believed that Allen was the son of the gods.

This could quickly gather people's hearts in a short period of time, which was indeed not wrong.

However, Allen previously thought that gods were just a product of people's imagination, so he just said it.

Later, he learned that gods really existed, and they didn't seem to be friendly to people. The tragic situation of the Odin Augustus Empire and the Atyes Empire shocked Allen.

Moreover, the relationship between Allen's kingdom and the gods is not very good now.

Not to mention that Allen often bluffs, but he also took in those humans from the Odin Augustus Empire and the Atyes Empire, and even killed the messenger of the Sea God…

These are all big things. The reason why nothing has happened now is either that those gods haven't received the news yet, or that they think Allen's kingdom is too weak now and not threatening, so they don't bother to take action.

Allen still believed the latter guess more. Although these things were indeed not big deals, the gods managed so many places that they might not necessarily find out.

The only relatively big thing was killing the messenger of the Sea God, but he also said that he was suppressed by the Sea God for his unfavorable work, and I'm afraid the Sea God wouldn't care about his life or death.

However, Allen would rather make the worst plan.

That is, unless Allen's kingdom stops developing, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous sooner or later.

But how could Allen agree to this situation? Moreover, it is very stupid to pin your hopes on others.

When Allen's kingdom develops to the point of the Odin Augustus Empire and the Atyes Empire, Allen will not give up exploring the gods. At that time, I am afraid that he will also receive attacks from those gods.

Now that there is a way to understand those gods, Allen is very happy.

However, because there is no text, Allen is not very understanding.

Moreover, the purpose of the person who painted was not to introduce those gods to Allen, but just to tell the story.

Only a few of those figures are relatively clear at close range, and those that are slightly farther away are not very obvious.

Allen had no choice but to continue looking down.

He found that after those gods were born, they also gathered together. Maybe they felt that the world only had them, the gods, which was too deserted, so they agreed to make some changes.

Different gods made their own efforts. They changed the planets, transformed the terrain, put in the water needed for life, and created creatures.

Soon, under their efforts, the planets had their own lives, and the planets also appeared vibrant.

However, they were still not very happy and felt very lonely.

Until one day, they accidentally created a new creature - humans!

Because this creature was created by those gods according to their own appearance, it was different from other creatures. As soon as they appeared, they had very high wisdom.

This made those gods very happy. With these humans accompanying them, they were no longer lonely.

When humans were first created, because of their weak strength, they were often attacked by other beasts, resulting in heavy casualties.

Even if they had wisdom and could use tools, they still couldn't resist.

The gods couldn't bear to see this situation and decided to help the human race.

According to their own strength, they created methods of cultivation. Through cultivation, they mastered the power that only gods possessed and became the masters of all things. Other beasts could no longer harm them.

Seeing this, Allen was a little curious. According to what the murals said, those gods seemed to be good.

Moreover, they created humans and were very dedicated to humans. How could they become like this?

Moreover, the cultivation methods of those humans seemed to be extremely powerful. There were almost no mortals, and the overall strength was stronger than it is now.

Allen continued to look down and found that one day, disaster struck.

Although I don't know exactly what happened, it was obviously (good) not a small matter.

Many gods all had sad faces, but they still made up their minds and went there one after another.

However, before they left, they left behind their inheritance and also left behind a god.

Then this god passed on their godhood and took on the task of protecting the human race.

The murals didn't detail what happened next, but it seemed the ending wasn't good, as they never appeared again.

However, the world also fell into peace.

The only remaining god quietly protected the human race.

Later, as humans cultivated and grew stronger, many possessed strength approaching the level of gods.

The remaining god, feeling lonely after his friends departed, took out the godhoods of the previous gods and gave them to those people.

Soon, they obtained godhood and became new gods.

Chapter 527: The God Geller

After those people became gods, they were no different from the previous ones, and they also took care of ordinary people.

With the guidance of the original remaining god, things were not bad.

However, as time passed, more and more people became gods, and the godhoods left behind by the original gods were used up.

Those who broke through later were very dissatisfied when they learned of this.

Indeed, that was godhood. Just because they broke through later, they missed such a great opportunity.

The conflict between the two factions grew, and the mentality of the new gods also changed.

They no longer regarded themselves as humans, but as superior gods.

Their attitude towards humans became increasingly indifferent, and they were even more dissatisfied with the old god's teachings.

The old god was very worried, but there was nothing he could do.

Finally, disaster erupted.

The new gods first took advantage of the old god's inattention and secretly slaughtered the strong humans. By the time the old god realized something was wrong, it was too late.

Few strong humans were left. In his rage, the old god wanted to take action.

But they took the initiative and jointly besieged the old god.

Although the old god was the only true god, he was no match for so many opponents. In the end, he was no match for them.

At the end of the battle, the old god was severely injured, almost dying, but still managed to escape.

Without the old god's restraint, they were unscrupulous.

They not only slaughtered all the strong people in the worlds close to them, but also changed the cultivation methods to weaken the human race. They also forbade some people from trying to explore the gods.

To further improve their strength, they made those humans believe in them so they could obtain the power of faith.

After seeing all this, Allen finally understood and the questions in his heart were answered.

"So that's how it is. But the original god also had a responsibility. He only focused on the cultivation of those people and did not test their hearts," Allen said, running his fingers over the murals on the wall.

"Yes! It's all my fault. I'm sorry to my brothers and sisters."

A deep voice emerged from the hall, catching Allen off guard.

"Who?"

Allen turned around sharply and saw a phantom appearing in the center of the hall where the light spot had been. It was a very burly figure with two upward-curving horns on his head.

His face looked very simple and honest, not like a strong person at all, but like an old farmer.

"Who am I? Haven't you already guessed?"

The person smiled and said to Allen, seeming to have no malicious intent.

Allen was a little surprised. "You are the old god in the murals?"

Only he could know this secret that no one but the gods knew, and could exist for so long.

"That's right," the god nodded.

"Strictly speaking, I had another name before: Geller, the God of Earth and Soil."

This was a true god. Allen looked at Geller with some excitement, examining him carefully.

Perhaps sensing Allen's gaze, Geller smiled wryly. "I am just a remnant soul. I was ambushed by them, my divine body was shattered, and even my soul was broken. Now, only a trace of remnant soul remains."

"If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to hide it from them. They would definitely think I'm still alive and would hunt me down at all costs."

Allen clicked his tongue. Even with only a trace of remnant soul, he had such strength. Not to mention anything else, just the tens of thousands of miles of deep forest and the pressure that drove Allen, a legendary realm expert, crazy, and that was when he wasn't even going all out.

Hearing Geller say this, Allen didn't have the slightest thought of looking down on him, but said softly, "The 'them' that God Geller mentioned, are they the guys in the murals?"

"Of course it's them," Geller looked very painful. "Back then, my brothers and sisters thought I was the youngest and not very strong, so they let me stay. But I didn't fulfill their instructions and failed their expectations."

Geller looked very painful, it seemed that there was indeed true affection between those gods.

Seeing Geller's appearance, Allen didn't know what to say, and could only try to comfort him.

"God Geller, it's not entirely your fault. The main reason is those guys."

"No, if I hadn't misjudged people, they wouldn't have become gods. It's all my fault. I was too eager to complete their mission. When I saw someone break through, I couldn't wait to make them gods without careful examination."

"Actually, I understood some things later, but I still thought they wouldn't go too far, especially with me watching them. But I really didn't know they would dare to do this."

Allen didn't say anything, after all, Geller was indeed largely at fault.
