This is the function of justice: all unjust things will be targeted and restrained.

"You seem confused?" Nemus drew his sword and clashed with the opponent's sword of justice. Justice was quickly pulled away from him, and the blade firmly blocked the opponent's attack.

The other party's sense of justice became incredibly weak in his presence.

"It seems you anticipated your situation!"

The God of Justice takes divine justice as its fundamental principle.

He absolutely upholds the rule of the gods, and theoretically, a god who takes all the gods as his foundation must be able to become a powerful deity.

But in reality, he hasn't made any progress since the distant era of the elemental chaos.

At most, it's just some technological innovation and the accumulation of divine power; in essence, there's no upper limit to growth.

In a vague way, the God of Justice had also sought other paths to become a powerful deity, but he could not do so.

"None of you are complete!" Nemus's Heart Sword pierced the hearts of the gods, including the God of Justice.

It's not that the divine essence is incomplete. When the world's possibilities are divided, apart from a few special items, such as the mud spots on the Destiny Tablet, or special items that cannot be replicated like the pages of the Mysterious Book, which will randomly fall during the differentiation, everything else will be complete.

Godhood, as a number of heaven and earth, has perfect functions within the possibilities of the world, and also possesses a full share of the origin.

The incompleteness that Nemes refers to lies within the individual.

Gods like the God of Justice existed long before the chaos of the elements. When various world possibilities were divided, there was naturally a 'complete' God of Justice in each of the different world possibilities.

The problem lies precisely in this completeness.

Every god of justice is trying to break through the powerful divine force, but their existence is not enough to break through the crystal wall subsystem, so they interfere with each other instead.

Under such interference, it is difficult for them to truly achieve their own 'breakthrough'.

The reason why no one has been able to find a way to become a powerful divine force for hundreds of millions of years is largely due to this.

When deflection force is the dominant force, other paths are not obvious, and in this case, there are other complete systems that disrupt things on their own.

Each time another possible self seeks powerful divine power, its existence will subtly remind other divine worlds of the possibility of its existence through the crystal wall subsystem.

The possibilities of the world are highly correlated with the deflection force.

This reminder was like a blind lamp in the darkness for them; it illuminated the path of the deflecting force but also obscured other paths in the darkness.

So much so that they are all firmly bound to the path of deflection force.

In addition, the path of faith is too difficult to deal with, so much so that only those powerful gods who have mastered the power of deflection can see it.

However, once the deflection force is mastered, there is no need to follow the path of the ancient gods.

The deflection force is very strong, but it does pose a certain obstacle to the path of the ancient gods.

Instead of painstakingly researching the path of the ancient gods, it would be better to push more deflection states in other world possibilities to obtain more deflection forces.

This is why the current phenomenon exists—powerful divine power does not need other methods like the path of the ancient gods to become powerful divine power, while those of medium divine power are 'differentiated' and thus have their paths obscured except for the deflection force.

At this moment, the God of Justice is a typical example.

He was confused at the moment; even now, he still couldn't see through the crystal wall subsystem to observe the possibilities of other worlds.

Because of his exceptional talent, he was able to discover relatively easily that he could never compete with those powerful gods in terms of simply relying on influence to acquire newly generated deflection power.

In this situation, what drove him to seek out Nemus was solely the desire for profit.

“Your confused mind is in turmoil!” Nemus said, his sword twitching slightly as he deflected the sword of the God of Justice.

The God of Justice was given a divine enhancement, but his strength seemed to have weakened compared to before.

Before Nemes could finish speaking, a vast expanse of golden light swept in from behind the God of Justice.

Conceptual pantheon: God of Wealth.

These weren't the only ones fighting against Nemus.

Beneath the storms of the astral planes, the gods of death, the gods of hunting and decay, and the gods of fury, the gods of volcanoes, insect plagues, and drought.

At this moment, they all launched an attack on Nemus.

Previously, both the god of love and the god of justice had openly attracted Nemus's attention.

These deities, under the cover of the astral plane, were making their plans from afar.

When the time comes, we will use the astral mind to bring action characteristics to completely envelop Nemus, thus forming a divine war plan against Nemus!

The light emanating from the God of Justice dimmed slightly.

Although his sense of justice was primarily divine orthodoxy, it was also influenced to some extent by the sense of justice as perceived by the world.

For example, doing things openly and honestly, or doing good deeds.

But now, he can't fool himself; he's only acting out of selfish motives, and he's even joining others in a coordinated attack and ambush.

Chapter 883 Barrier

If it were any other evil being, then the God of Justice's inner 'improperty' would be completely irrelevant; unfortunately, he was facing Nemus.

“A change of heart is also a change!” Nemus said, and the sword in his hand followed his words, piercing into the darkness, striking the flaw in the God of Justice’s change of heart. In an instant, the God of Justice’s ‘thought’ that controlled his divine power was broken, and the divine power of justice went out of control!

The out-of-control divine power rapidly swept outwards, and the originally perfect encirclement attack instead developed a slight flaw under the impact of this divine power.

"The changes are all before my eyes!" Nemus declared, and under this declaration, everything Nemus said was true.

As Nemus progressed further on the path of the Ancient Gods, his mastery of the rules of change deepened.

Therefore, by following the rules of change, he is able to detect most of the changes that occur and the specific circumstances.

Unfortunately, these deities were all incredibly large.

Their attempts to ambush Nemus, despite various attempts to conceal their intentions, could not fool Nemus, who was able to easily discern what the gods were doing.

"Unfortunately, we're still stuck at the last step." Nemus held a sword in one hand and manipulated divine power with the other. His divine war strategy had already spread throughout the astral plane.

Nemus's biggest dilemma at this moment is that the path to becoming an ancient god has been blocked, and he has not been able to trace back to the most ancient time of the rules to become the most ancient god.

The deflection force we are now experiencing is both an opportunity and an obstacle.

The deflection force is a special force of possibility that turns the world upside down, pointing to another path that seems brighter.

That is the power that transforms the world, causing it to change in the direction it desires.

This and the control of the source of the rules in the Path of the Ancient Gods are both aimed at the same rules, but their methods are quite different.

There are areas where they can learn from each other, and there are also areas where they can interfere with each other.

Therefore, although Nemes gained a deeper understanding of change due to the deflection force, he also went a little further in his understanding.

However, due to the interference of the deflection force, they have not yet taken the most crucial step on the path to the ancient gods.

"I and the God of Justice and other medium-level gods actually face the same dilemma."

"The division of the world's possibilities means that I can only trace the rules back to the period of elemental chaos at most."

"Because the rules of change that I have mastered have only one line from beginning to end..." The point of divergence in the possibilities of the world where Nemus exists is more than 30 years ago.

This point of separation did not stump Nemus, but the separation during the Elemental Chaos was so intense that in the earlier era of 'unity,' Nemus found it difficult to exert his influence on the rules and control them.

Those world possibilities acted like a huge barrier, completely blocking Nemes' influence.

This situation is not difficult to resolve. Once the possibilities of the world become one, this barrier will simply disappear without Naimus having to do anything.

Of course, this is all on the premise that Nems is still alive by then.

It can only be said that everything in this world is a 'vicious cycle'.

The intermediate-level divine power was trapped in a vicious cycle, and so was Nemus.

To unravel the influence of the world's possibilities, we must wait until all world possibilities are unified; only then can one relatively easily become an ancient god.

To reach that time, one needs the power of the ancient gods; otherwise, one might be killed by the sun god before long.

Nemes saw everything clearly.

Of course, Nems's vicious cycle isn't that dead.

The solution lies in two points.

The first is the spirituality developed by the moon goddess. Nemus also mastered spirituality, and because of the true spirit, Nemus can also unite all 'souls' with the true spirit.

If Nems can invest enough of his 'self' in other world possibilities, then once these 'selves' grow and grasp more changes, the barrier will naturally be broken.

However, projecting oneself into other worlds is not so easy.

First of all, Nemus has become a god, and after becoming a god, it is very difficult for him to approach the material plane.

The conventional route is difficult to take in exploring other worlds.

Spirituality can only transmit consciousness, but that's where the trouble lies: spirituality is very likely to attract the attention of the sun god.

Although Nemus and the Sun God are completely different people, they inevitably share some similarities.

This similarity will not have any impact on Nemes himself at present, but it is very likely to cause confusion to the projected 'self'.

The key lies in those special rules: the thoughts of gods are strongly linked to individuals, making it impossible for them to enter the material plane.

Therefore, the projected 'self' cannot initially carry memories and thoughts.

Once discovered by the Sun God, the self that Nemus projected might instantly become the Sun God's 'saint'.

Although that saint was not the sun god himself, nor did they have a strong intellectual connection, they were not far off.

Therefore, there is only one way to safely complete Nemus's plan—the abyss.

The Demon Prince possesses a unique characteristic—the ability to secretly connect to other worlds through the abyss.

"I only need to project different 'selves' into different regions of the other fifteen possible worlds, and when they grow to a certain level, they can quickly help me control the changes..."

Nemus's thoughts flowed, his hands moved without stopping. His special ability, "Void Beast," allowed him to utilize the rules of the soul. Combined with Nemus's control over the rules through his Ancient God Path, he was now firmly holding back the changes, allowing them to flow according to his will.

Despite being besieged by several mid-level gods and two powerful gods, Nemus was unable to retaliate. Instead, he was able to seize upon their presence or absence at every moment to defeat their attacks.

It was at this time that, among the other possibilities of the world, the 'existence' of different regions began to take root and sprout.

Within a possible world, in the astral plane, an astral being opens its eyes.

In another possible world, within the ether layer, a unique ether layer worm also sensed that it had become different.

Aside from the world possibility that Nemus himself already exists in, in each of the other world possibilities, in different regions, a unique life form is rapidly growing.

The most crucial self of Nemus is the possibility of the world that Nemus accidentally traveled to from the quagmire.

Within that world's possibilities, Nemus's 'self' appeared in the material plane.

Chapter 884 The Way to Break the Stalemate

These Nems' 'self's' growth rate is not slow.

After all, the current Nemus is not the same as the past one; all his characteristics have been passed down.

The most important of these is the 'marginal increasing effect'.

As long as a trait similar to this exists, the growth rate of Nemus will be explosive.

Furthermore, these 'selves,' apart from lacking strong ideological connections, are essentially still individuals separated from Nemes.

Therefore, their natural upper limit is 'gods'.

The "marginal diminishing returns" property means that as long as there is no bottleneck or obstacle that must be overcome, the growth rate will never stop.

For example, the self within the astral plane quickly grew into a giant creature similar to an astral whale, which soon attracted the attention of the abominations.

The next moment, the opponent directly bit and tore apart the body of the divine monster, and a large amount of divine power flowed and was quickly swallowed by him.

It was at this moment that Nemes's spirit formed a deep connection with him.

As a being in the astral realm, he does not need to adhere to the principle of disconnected thoughts, thus this type of region experiences the fastest growth.

Soon, he mastered the changes in the astral plane by relying on his own familiarity with them.

Nemus's spirituality was connected to it, and their thoughts quickly became unified. This avatar, named the Lord of the Stars, was thus completed.

Subsequently, clones from other possible worlds also rapidly condensed.

The slower ones are the clones of the three material planes.

Those in the prime material plane are relatively better off; one is in the age of the floating whales, and the other is in an era before the catastrophe spreads across the land.
