Chapter 404: Peeling Back A Corner Of The Mist, Only To Find Deeper Mysteries
As the mist parted, Lin Moyu finally saw the truth.
Everything connected into an undeniable thread.
The great war that once raged in the Genesis Realm—now the Putrid Corpse Land—revolved around the Genesis Scepter.
The former God of Life had mysteriously perished, only leaving behind the Genesis Scepter, a prize coveted by all.
For the Gods, the Genesis Scepter was a path to ascend as the new God of Life, a high-rank God. To mid- and low-rank Gods, this was an irresistible temptation.
Humans, too, yearned for it. By studying high-rank God power, they could ascend into the Transcendent God-level. The allure of reaching the Transcendent God-level was equally irresistible to human class users.
Demons and Dragonkind sought the same thing—evolution, strength, supremacy.
Thus, a four-way war erupted in the Genesis Realm. Countless powerful beings clashed in a brutal struggle for the Genesis Scepter.
In the aftermath, the Genesis Realm lay in ruins. In the end, a God made the ultimate sacrifice, casting a forbidden spell that transformed the world into the Putrid Corpse Land.
The fallen—Gods, humans, Demons, and Dragonkind alike—were buried there and turned into Putrid Corpses.
The Genesis Scepter did not emerge unscathed either. Damaged in the great war, its shaft fused with the Genesis Lightning of the Putrid Corpse Land—leaving behind a final sliver of hope.
As for the Genesis Scepter’s most crucial component—the Life Core—it had vanished.
