Chapter 673: Conspiration

From the Natural Guardian interfering in the Undead King’s plans, to the invasion of the Abyss, the separation of Layer 422, the creation of a new Hell dimension, and ultimately the downfall of the Undead King and the emergence of the River Styx—every step involved the influence of this god, Donald.
These events caused tremendous upheaval across the multiverse, altering the very structure of the entire cosmos.
Firstly, a new Hell dimension emerged in the lower realms, one that could rival Hell and the Abyss. Though still relatively weak, it was backed by many powerful entities, and it would not be long before it stood equal to Hell and the Abyss.
The act of creating Hell to weaken the Abyss’s strength earned praise from the gods, with many true gods offering their support.
All these deeds elevated Donald, the Natural Guardian, to an extremely high status, his fame overshadowing even the established mid-tier gods and approaching that of the great high-tier gods.
While the multiverse was still discussing the establishment of the Nature pantheon and Donald’s achievements, in a desolate area of the outer realms, atop a sizable meteorite, three mysterious figures radiating divine light appeared.
If Donald were there, he would surely be astonished, as two of them were beings he had encountered before.
The only woman was his old acquaintance, the Spider Queen Flora. The other middle-aged man, wrapped in light, turned out to be one of the most powerful high-tier gods in the Pantheon—the Lord of Dawn, Ivan.
Then, the third figure sneered, “Hehe! The glorious and great Lord of Dawn would actually associate with us, gods of the evil faction? It’s unbelievable—even mortals across the cosmos would find it hard to believe!”
This figure appeared human, but his eerie expression and pale, slick skin were highly unusual. He was also dressed in a ridiculous banquet suit. Among the gods, only one would dare appear in such a guise to outsiders—that was the God of Merchants and Monsters, Anim.
Both the God of Merchants and Monsters, Anim, and the Dark Elf goddess, the Spider Queen Flora, were among the targets the Lord of Dawn, Ivan, of the side of absolute justice wanted to eliminate. It was unlikely that anyone in the entire multiverse could have imagined these three gathering outside the Pantheon without even starting a fight.
“If you’ve come here to spout nonsense, I’d be annoyed to purify your avatar right now!”

The avatar of the Lord of Dawn held not the slightest goodwill toward these two evil gods and demons. If it weren’t for the fact that these heretical gods still had some use to him, the supremely righteous god, head of the Three Glorious Gods, would have long since destroyed them!

The avatars of the three great gods gathered here for one sole purpose: Donald, the currently highly sought-after god of the natural pantheon, the Lord of Nature and its Guardian!

“Great Prince Ivan, now you can tell us why you’ve called us here!” Flora said hesitantly.

“Yes! If Prince Ivan doesn’t explain clearly, I won’t get involved in this mess. At worst, I’ll give up developing in the main world!” The three gods present all had irreconcilable conflicts with Donald. Queen of Spiders Flora had been insulted by him many times, which had weakened her greatly, almost costing her her divinity.

The previous conflicts between the Lord of Dawn and the three true gods of Celt, along with the loss of a major sect in the main world, had enraged this proud glorious god, forcing him to ally with enemy evil gods and demons.

Only Anim, the God of Merchants and Oddities, seemed to have no direct conflict with Donald, but his wife had just obtained a position in the merchant pantheon—a behavior Anim found intolerable. Though he spoke casually, as an oddity, his twisted and perverse thoughts were completely different from those of normal intelligent beings. His extreme and vengeful nature meant he would never spare any enemies or competitors.

This was also why Ivan reached out to these two.

They shared the same goal: to strike down their enemy, Donald.

In fact, both Queen of Spiders Flora and God of Merchants and Oddities Anim thought it was a trap when they received the Lord of Dawn’s secret invitation!

After all, over the years, the Lord of Dawn had eliminated many powerful figures from evil factions, including some at the level of true gods, using methods that weren’t always honorable.

It wasn’t surprising they suspected it. Even if a member of the underworld suddenly received an invitation from a police chief who was once their opponent, their first thought wouldn’t be that it was something good!

But upon further consideration, given the Lord of Dawn’s pride, if he was willing to lower himself to approach them, he surely wouldn’t deceive them in such matters.

Besides, if things failed, they would lose at most one of their avatars, but if they succeeded, the benefits for them would be enormous!

Thus, both evil gods and demons rushed to meet him.

The Lord of Dawn did not speak immediately. Instead, he waved his hand to release a shielding glow that isolated the entire meteorite before saying, “I am carrying out a grand plan. If successful, it will change the structure of the multiverse and bring me one step closer to the supreme position of the God-Emperor! Moreover, I’ve heard that old Ignatz is ready to leave the multiverse and explore the chaotic spaces beyond to uncover the secrets of the God-Emperor. By then, I will become the most powerful semi-God-Emperor in the multiverse, ruling over the Pantheon!”

Hearing such secrets, both deities were shocked, especially the Spider Queen, whose face showed extreme resentment. Anim, the merchant and god of the strange, was filled with envy despite his shock. Only a being as powerful as the Lord of Elves, who was said to be a semi-God-Emperor, could act as he pleased—it was a realm he could only dream of achieving.

The Lord of Dawn continued, “But aside from Ignatz, I have another obstacle: the Nature Guardian. It’s clear that Ignatz plans to train this deity with high elven bloodline as his successor to protect the interests of the elven pantheon after he leaves. Since this person is the link between the neutral faction and the elven pantheon, he will surely pose a major obstacle to my plans! If you can help me eliminate this obstacle, then after I ascend to supremacy, I will forgive your evil deeds. I won’t even hesitate to force you to switch sides!”

“Prince Ivan, are you joking? Although that Nature Guardian is already a mid-tier god who has established his own pantheon, the elven pantheon has another higher god besides His Majesty—his own son. How could it be that some outsider like the Nature Guardian take control of the elven pantheon?”

Anim found it hard to believe what the Lord of Dawn said, while the Spider Queen agreed quite strongly.

Those who had never dealt with him surely didn’t realize how terrifying he was. Even when she was still a lower god, he had already made her, a mid-tier god, suffer repeatedly. Now that she was a mid-tier god and the ruler of her own pantheon, Flora didn’t want to admit it, but she knew she could no longer confront him head-on.

That’s why the Spider Queen held great hope for the Lord of Dawn’s secret invitation this time.
