In the void.

As the situation in the mortal realm changed, things seemed to take a major turn. Since yesterday, the God of War had been prayed to by masses of casual believers, converts, and fanatics. At first, when the battle was stable, the direction of prayers hadn't changed much, so naturally the impact on the God of War wasn't very significant. But as Ren and the Goddess of Music got involved in various mortal affairs, the situation naturally changed. All kinds of different prayers kept bombarding the God of War, and countless people's doubts had a huge impact on the God of War.

Though they say believers don't die and gods don't perish, gods can go mad. It's been proven that believers' prayers can have a massive impact on the gods. Ren's whole operation had no small effect on the God of War.

What was originally an evenly matched situation gradually began to tilt, with the Goddess of Magic gaining the upper hand.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a huge crash rang out. In the eyes of the gods, the Goddess of Magic, who seemed to have been on the defensive the whole time, actually blasted a spell right into the God of War's face. The tremendous force sent the God of War flying backward, purple-black flames of war drawing a perfect arc across the sky.

The already highly unstable God of War became even more crazed. He casually swung at a nearby divine realm, and instantly that realm completely shattered, its scattered faith power forcibly swallowed by him.

"Damn it, has the God of War completely lost his mind?!" Watching this scene, many gods cursed inwardly.

Even absorbing your own faith power carries the risk of being corrupted by mortals, let alone absorbing another god's faith power. The God of War's action was basically suicide. At this point, saying he wasn't mad—probably not many would believe it.

As for the minor deity whose realm was destroyed, he was naturally furious to the extreme, but didn't dare approach.

Just the God of War's roar seemed beyond what he could withstand.

"Magic! You're asking for it!" the God of War bellowed, charging at the Goddess of Magic again. Being knocked away seemed to have enraged him to the extreme. After swallowing all of that minor god's faith power, the God of War launched another fierce assault on the Goddess of Magic.

The Goddess of Magic remained unfazed, directly summoning a chaotic energy mass and bombarding him with it.

The two forces clashed again, the massive shockwave turning the surroundings into true nothingness. It seemed everything was reduced to just war and magic...

The gods who had received Ren's promises watched this situation, wanting to help but not knowing what to do. Just as they hesitated, suddenly the God of War went flying backward, looking even more disheveled than before.

Soon, the gods discovered that the God of War actually couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of flame-like blood.

"You... I..."

The world's strongest god suddenly reduced to this state—even the somewhat crazed God of War found it a bit unbelievable.

SLASH—

Before he could launch another attack, a massive golden chaotic energy slashed fiercely toward him. At the same time, over a dozen completely different rule-based energy attacks bombarded the God of War.

The enormous energy seemed to tear the surrounding space itself, countless gray rifts spreading across the battlefield, as if they could devour everything... Part of the God of War's divine body also seemed to be completely swallowed by these rifts. The God of War, already becoming unstable due to wavering faith, now seemed to completely enter a chaotic state.

"Hunting, lightning, ocean, light, wisdom, hearth, hell... Good! Very good! You're all excellent! You forced me into this! Let's all be destroyed! Rather than wait for outsiders to devour us all, I might as well destroy you all! Either merge into one, or perish together!"

Whether the God of War had regained his sanity or become even more crazed was unclear. He roared words that confused everyone, the aura around him suddenly beginning to surge. Phantom after phantom kept appearing.

War, creation, wine, dreams... Dozens of different authorities, even including the marriage and fertility authorities held by his wife, were all somehow on him. Just how many gods' authorities had he devoured?! What exactly was he trying to do?

The gods, who originally seemed ready to interrogate him and understand what the God of War was trying to say, now all had faces full of disbelief and terror. The God of Creation, who had died but could still respond to mortals. The God of Wine, missing for a thousand years. The Goddess of Dreams, who had been in the mortal realm... The authorities of all these gods were actually all on this God of War, even including fertility—which had spent countless years with him in mutual harmony. What exactly had he been doing behind the scenes?!

But these things could be investigated slowly. Even if they couldn't figure it out, it didn't matter. Right now, the God of War had to die. His very existence had made all the gods feel a life-and-death crisis.

Even gods who originally weren't interested in Ren's promises began converging here, especially those gods the God of War had called out by name.

Powerful gods like Ocean and Hell hadn't come earlier—they'd been watching from the sidelines. But when the God of War called them out by name, when the God of War revealed these authorities, they all immediately sprang into action.

The power of various authorities kept rotating around the God of War's body. It seemed some strange force was still amplifying. The attacks from all the major gods had already struck.

"All of you, merge into my body! We will become the true Star Spirit God, become the only god in this world! Those damn invaders will never be able to threaten us again!"

The God of War roared, his body seemingly transforming into a black hole, absorbing all the attacks the gods launched at him into his body.

Whether it was the Goddess of Magic or the other gods, they couldn't help but twitch their eyelids. What kind of move was this? It could completely ignore all their attacks?!

No!

There's absolutely no such thing as an unbreakable defense in this world.

Without needing to communicate, all the gods began frantically attacking the God of War. Compared to their previous assault, this was who knows how many times more intense. But the more they did this, the more terrified they became.

It seemed that with their attacks, the authorities they controlled were beginning to loosen. Was the God of War trying to devour and assimilate their authorities by absorbing their attacks?! How was this even possible?!

"Hahaha, you can't kill me! I'm the God of War, the strongest god in this world. I will eventually devour you and become the only god on this planet!" He thought of something and actually began laughing softly: "Even if you've discovered this now, it's too late. You will all be devoured by me!"
