From the formation, one can see the Kingdom’s stance on things emerging from the Kingdom of God.
If separation isn’t possible, then most likely they will face mutual annihilation.
From Duke Torsten’s reaction, it’s clear that the Rocknard Family will not provide him shelter.
"I don’t have demons on me, you must be mistaken..."
Before he could finish his excuse, the residual soul within him emerged, swiftly trying to escape to the outside world.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side. As soon as it appeared, it was caught by the Compass within Hudson and was directly consumed.
To cover it up, Hudson casually cast a single-target forbidden spell, taking away dozens of Rocknard Family members with it.
In an instant, a wave of memories flooded into Hudson’s mind, swiftly unraveling all the puzzles in his heart at that moment.
From the ascent of gods to the fall of gods, all the events during this period were now clear to Hudson.
Aset indeed didn’t have any demons on him; this residual soul was left by the God of Destiny as a backup plan for revival.
According to conventional plots, it would assist Aset in his cultivation journey to the peak, eventually giving back, allowing the deity to reclaim the divine position.
Unfortunately, the God of Destiny had bad luck, not anticipating Hudson’s unexpected appearance; the grandfather assisting the protagonist’s storyline ended prematurely.
The sudden twist directly incited public anger, and everyone glared at Aset with hatred.
Duke Torsten was especially furious; he had just helped defend him but never expected such a dramatic reversal.
"Audacious evil spirits, daring to impersonate Aset, that’s simply outrageous!"
Duke Torsten immediately rebuked sternly.
Fortunately, he kept his rationality just now, not opposing Hudson; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to explain himself.
Some things don’t require evidence; mere suspicion is enough to pull him down from his duke position.
Hudson wouldn’t even need to make a move; the members of the Rocknard Family themselves would act first.
Allowing someone potentially linked to evil spirits to become the Family Head is irresponsible to all clan members.
As for clan members who were accidentally killed, they could only be considered unlucky for not dodging in time.
"He’s not an impersonator, nor has his body been occupied by evil spirits. It’s just that he was attached by a residual soul for a period of time, judge for yourselves!"
This level of explanation clearly couldn’t quell the public’s anger.
No matter Aset’s background, born in the enemy’s home, he deserved his misfortune.
Without his greatest reliance, the Rocknard Family’s fury wasn’t easy to appease.
If Aset had confessed honestly, everyone would have been prepared, and those clan members wouldn’t have died.
"Burn at the stake, the soul of evil spirits must be cleansed by fire!"
A white-haired elder was the first to declare angrily.
White hair sending away blonde hair; Hudson couldn’t provoke him, so he could only direct his hatred towards Aset, who caused all this.
The Rocknard Family’s internal strife did not capture Hudson’s interest; the gains this time were immense enough.
Obtaining the God of Destiny’s memories, his last trace of reverence for the Divine Spirit was completely consumed.
The Divine Spirit’s strength mainly derived from the Kingdom of God, borrowing the world’s authority. Without this boost, they’d merely be at Sanctuary level.
Take the unlucky God of Destiny as an example, despite living for countless years, his own strength only reached the Third Order of the Sanctuary, achieved through sheer passage of time.
Among the Divine Spirits, the God of Destiny was considered decent; some less insightful Divine Spirits even remained at the Sanctuary Second Order in strength.
The primary significance of the Kingdom of God lies in organizing the world rules and resisting external invasions.
As the world matures, with the Crystal Wall System’s improvement, the world’s defense ability greatly increases, reducing external threats.
Once critical, the Kingdom of God’s importance to the world diminished significantly, leading to the fall of The Kingdom of God as it no longer required massive original source for maintenance.
The gods’ fall, superficially appearing to stem from the poison of faith, was actually a natural assimilation after the world’s rules matured.
They had to either relinquish authority or lose self-consciousness, becoming part of the rules.
Apart from a few exceptions, most Divine Spirits were unwilling to lose self-awareness.
Some quick-witted Divine Spirits started their plans early, detecting irregularities at the earliest possible time.
The unfortunate God of Destiny was either dull in reaction or overconfident.
Directly using his authority, he predicted the future situation and placed his bet.
Over-relying on destiny, when facing Hudson, an anomaly beyond destiny, he rendered himself accountable.
Apart from these valid pieces of information, there were also insights into the Divine Spirit’s dark history.
Some believers entering the Kingdom of God became the Divine Spirit’s servants, while others were used as experimental materials.
Many evil species were created by the Divine Spirits.
The countless demon leaders now imprisoned in the Kingdom of God weren’t because the Divine Spirits couldn’t eradicate them, but because they were intentionally left as problems.
The aim was to make the world consciousness understand: it’s impossible without the Divine Spirits!
As for the myriad living beings on the continent, they became sacrifices for the gods to achieve their goals.
After uncovering the truth, Hudson found himself speechless. As the world’s rules improved, the rampant Divine Spirits turned into tumors. Reluctant to meet their end, the Divine Spirits chose to retaliate.
No wonder the God of Destiny fell; they stood against the world, yet still relied on the future predictions derived from the world authority.
Not only did they make one mistake, but they compounded it by approaching those favored by the world, fearing that the world consciousness wouldn’t notice them. Read full story at 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁
