Chapter 332 The Clan Head's Grand Banquet is Held, Xia Fatian's Identity as a Holy Spirit is Announced to the Entire Universe! (Part 2)

I had a similar feeling before.

Those were His Excellency the Wise One, the leader of the Carnival of Fate, and the young miner in that mysterious dark space who claimed to have lost his power, the Absolute Defense. Although neither of them had reached the divine rank of the Gold Cleaner, they were very close.

On one hand, both the Wise One and the young miners are far stronger than the Outer Gods, almost a whole dimension stronger.

On the other hand, even the top three in strength, the bard and the storyteller, are no match for Lord [Sage] and the young miner, and the gap is quite obvious, though not as large as the gap between the Outer God and the two of them.

Now, Xia Fa understood. It seemed that below the position of the True God, there was also the position of the Heavenly Venerable.

He speculated that the Heavenly Venerable's rank should be second only to the True God, belonging to the same category as the True God, capable of causing an overwhelming gap to any existence below the True God, but probably unable to defeat a true True God.

For example, if the Gold Cleaner wielding the halberd were to fight against Lord [Sage] and the young miner, the Gold Cleaner would almost certainly win.

On the other hand, however, the Wise One and the young miners pose a considerable threat to the Gold Cleaners.

"So, the Silver Cleaner misunderstood that I was about to become a Celestial Venerable, and that's why he fled in such a panic?"

Thinking back to what had happened, Xia Fa felt both amused and sentimental.

At that time, although he could escape, if he did, Garlic City and the entire Spice Star would suffer, and the fanatical tomb raider would probably perish there.

Fortunately, the Silver Cleaner realized the mistake and actually led his team away.

"Could it be because of the chaotic electric currents and golden-white flames emanating from my body?"

When disguised as a physical "Glutton," with his spiritual intuition, Xia Fa was naturally able to see his own appearance clearly from an outsider's perspective.

That chaotic electric current—was actually a natural effect of the [Old Treasure: Rhine Blade of Calamity] that he had acquired, after the [Old Treasure: Rhine Blade of Calamity] successfully recognized him as its master.

This is one of the many wondrous aspects of the ancient treasures; they are not simply used as weapons.

As for the noble and mysterious golden-white flames, they seemed to originate from his two hearts, which appeared to be formed from the sun.

I reckon it was these two changes that made the Silver Cleaners admit their mistake.

After all, even if it's just the [Ancient Treasure - Rhine Blade of Calamity], as an ancient treasure, it can easily reveal an aura close to that of a Celestial Venerable. It's quite normal for the Silver Cleaner to have made a mistake.

Since he had escaped unscathed, Xia Fa stopped thinking about it. He could occasionally use the identity of the Glutton to bully others a few more times, provided that he didn't run into the Golden Cleanser, who was a true god.

Before a true god, I fear all my pretense will be exposed.

"By the way, that first entity that has never appeared is also a Celestial Venerable, and according to the fanatical tomb raider, the first entity doesn't even need an anchor point?"

Xia Fa became genuinely curious. Apart from this extremely mysterious First Entity, among the Nine Great Gods, the one worshipped by the Church of Destiny was also someone whose name was still unknown.

Most importantly, according to the young miners' speculation, only the [Silver Universe] remained unreplaced, while the [Paradox Clown] and [First History] returned. Under these circumstances, the true god worshipped by the Church of Destiny still hasn't revealed his name, even though they are all clearly fake—

Upon closer reflection, Xia Fa even felt a sense of dread.

After calming himself down, and seeing that Benedict and Meowkor were both fast asleep, he stood up and carried them into the wooden houses they had built themselves.

The effects of the alcohol had long worn off. Xia Fa then opened the bronze box given to him by the fanatical tomb raider, took out a piece of flesh the size of a watermelon from the Wall of Flesh, and, while still in the small world, swallowed it whole, enduring the strong smell of blood.

Instantly, the flesh of the wall of flesh and blood began to melt in the stomach and second heart, transforming into an immense and incredibly pure extraordinary power that surged throughout the body like a great river.

Xia Fa felt a sense of comfort for no reason, and suddenly realized that the smell of blood was not so unbearable after all.

Soon, the piece of meat, about the size of a watermelon, had melted away by more than half, and the extraordinary power within Xia Fa's body was almost overflowing.

He immediately stopped digestion in his stomach and second heart, storing the other half of the flesh wall in his stomach.

Then, with a thought, the vine gate opened in front of him, and Xia Fa stepped out.

Back in the real world, the red-silver star shell and the star bubble were both fine. Xia Fa waved his hand to dispel them, took a quick shower in the bathroom, and then went to the bedroom.

As soon as he lay down on the soft bed, smelling the faint fragrance on the sheets and pillow, he fell into a deep sleep.

"Xiafa, Xiafa, wake up."

After a full night's sleep, around nine o'clock the next morning, Xia Fa had just woken up and was still lying in bed, waiting for his mind to fully clear, when he heard the voice of his great-grandfather, Xia Latu, in his spiritual intuition.

Grandpa didn't just open the door and come in. Instead, he stood in the garden outside the detached villa and chose to wake him up in a more respectful way.

Little did they know, he had already woken up.

Xia Fa didn't delay and responded with his spiritual intuition: "Grandpa, what's wrong? Please come in and tell me."

Sharatu immediately said with his spiritual intuition, "It's alright, I don't need to come in. You should wash up early. The family head's banquet will begin in two or three hours. This time, our Gilgamesh family will announce your identity as the Holy Spirit of Destiny in front of guests from all over the universe. You'd better prepare yourself well."

Xia Fa was about to agree, as he originally intended to use his identity as the Holy Spirit of Destiny to conceal his greater secret. But at that moment, a middle-aged man's weathered voice rang out from his spiritual intuition.

"Xia Fa, Xia Fa, are you there?"

Are you there? — This isn't online chat —

Hearing this rather trendy question, Xia Fa forcibly suppressed her strong urge to complain.

It's very simple, because he did it from the heart.

"【Paradox Clown】My lord, as your devout follower, I am always here, whenever you call upon me. What are your commands?"

Xia Fa immediately responded with his spiritual intuition. He was originally going to reply to his great-grandfather again, but when he looked through the bedroom window, he found that his great-grandfather had already passed away.

[The Paradoxical Joker] immediately said, "I heard you've become the head of the Gilgamesh family?"

Xia replied respectfully, "Yes, Lord Paradox Clown, what is it?"

The spiritual intuition transmitted by the Paradox Clown immediately brought joy, as if a sigh of relief had been uttered: "Good, good, good! Haha, the problem is solved now, the problem is solved now."

Xia Fa hesitated and asked, "What's the problem?"

He actually wanted to ask what kind of problem required even a righteous god like him to worry about, but he immediately realized something and chose not to ask further.

[The Paradoxical Clown] didn't mince words, speaking with spiritual intuition: "Yesterday, a Silver Cleaner died, along with three Bronze Cleaners. You should know why, right?"

Xia Fa's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be—"

[Paradox Joker] sighed softly and patiently explained, "That's right, the Golden Cleaners found out about this."

"Although Nidhogg dragged the Silver Cleanser into eternal chaos with [Eternal Chaos], and the three Bronze Cleansers also perished with the collapse and annihilation of the Old Forge, there was still someone among the fake Nine Great Gods who could divine it."

"Now, the gold cleaners—anyone who can spare the time—are searching for you everywhere."

Upon hearing this, Xia Fa's heart skipped a beat, and he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat. Cold sweat immediately broke out on his back.

No way, that fast?

He hasn't even reached the level of a god, yet he's already being hunted down by the Golden Cleansers?

[Paradox Clown] then changed the subject: "However, you don't need to worry too much. After all, those three Bronze Cleaners were completely corrupted by the remaining ancient power of [Rhine Calamity]. The fake nine Great Gods couldn't take anything out of them. The problem actually lies with the Silver Cleaner, but it was also transformed into the concept of chaos, so—"

After a slight pause, [Paradox Clown] continued, "Therefore, they can only vaguely know that there is such a being who signed four overlord-level secret contracts before becoming a god. For the Golden Cleaners, this is beyond the ordinary scope and must be nipped in the bud."

Xia Fa suddenly understood: "[Paradox Clown], you mean—"

[Paradox Joker] said decisively: "That's right. For the Cleaners, beings within the ordinary scope, such as Outer Gods, Divine Beings, Heavenly Spirits, Secret Emperors, and Extraordinary Lords, will only be killed down from the highest rank. In other words, you can temporarily disguise yourself as a Heavenly Spirit."

Xia Fa asked, "Will this disguise work?"

[The Paradox Joker] chuckled: "Of course, that's on the premise that all living beings in the universe are there to cover for you. That's why I asked you if you've become the head of the Gilgamesh family."

Seemingly fearing that Xia Fa might not understand, this being, one of the strongest righteous gods, patiently explained: "The occupation of those nine false righteous gods, although it is an occupation of righteous god status, is still an occupation, based on the information flow and intelligence flow within the Star Spirit Realm."

"So, as long as you can interfere with them and their determination of your identity, you can remain safe and sound."

"In this situation, if you only reveal the identity of the Mysterious Emperor, the effect will be too weak. After all, there are quite a few Mysterious Emperors in the entire universe, and it's not anything new."

"Only when you reveal your identity as the Holy Spirit of Destiny, allowing this news to spread rapidly throughout the entire universe and even the Celestial Spirit Realm, and causing all living beings to form the impression and perception that you are the third Holy Spirit of Destiny, can your identity be temporarily and completely bound to the Holy Spirit of Destiny."

"In this way, when they try to locate you—who has signed four hegemonic-level secret agreements—it will be very difficult for them to locate you, as they will be completely interfered with by the collective understanding formed by all living beings in the universe."

"Even if someone accidentally discovers you in the real world, they will only regard you as a divinely ordained saint, and will not connect you with the you who signed four overlord-level secret contracts."

"In that case, you are completely safe for at least this period of time. Once you become a god, I will teach you some ways to save your life."

These words from "The Paradox Clown" immediately made Xia Fa realize the truth.

Although he had similar thoughts before, they were not clear enough, and he did not know that the Golden Cleanser and the fake Nine Great Gods could locate him.

Fortunately, Paradox Clown is knowledgeable and timely in informing us. It can only be said that he truly deserves to be one of the two strongest among the nine righteous gods. "Okay, I understand, thank you, Lord Paradox Clown."

Xia Fa expressed his gratitude with utmost sincerity, and even considered turning around and joining the Church of Paradoxes to become a devout follower of the [Paradox Clown].

Because the Paradox Joker essentially saved his life!

With my current status, not even that of a god, if I were to encounter a false one of the Nine True Gods or the Golden Cleansers pursuing me—

That's not just a matter of being unable to escape; it's about being crushed to dust in a single encounter, leaving not even a trace.

The spiritual intuition conveyed by [Paradox Clown] at this moment carried a rather friendly smile: "Why are you being so polite with me? In this world, only you, me, and that guy [Absolute Defense] are of the same kind. Alright, the Golden Cleaners are coming, I need to disguise myself. Be careful."

As soon as the words from his spiritual intuition fell, Xia Fa immediately felt the immense power belonging to the divine being vanish, disappearing without a trace.

"The young miner was right. The Paradox Joker was indeed impersonating the fake Paradox Joker who was killed, in order to confuse the situation—"

At this point, Xia Fa was increasingly inclined to believe that the young miner was the "absolute defense" that had lost its power, but the mysterious Levimir also seemed to be the "absolute defense"—which really puzzled him to the extreme.

"By the way, what are the Gold Cleaners doing? [Paradox Joker] Master said before that only Gold Cleaners who are free to do so will come looking for me —"

Of the thirty-odd Gold Cleaners, it's unknown how many were free to do so, but the use of the phrase "freed to do so" suggests that most were engaged in other tasks.

Xia Fa shook his head abruptly, knowing that this was not something he was in a position to think about, and that even a slight exploration of it in his mind might alert the Gold Cleaners.

As the Golden Axe Cleaner said, if he had known the truth about the Cleaners before he became a god, he would have been relentlessly hunted down by the Golden Cleaners, which shows that they do indeed have the terrifying ability to spy on their thoughts.

Three hours later.

Gilgamesh, the city of golden blood.

The City of Golden Blood is the largest and most prosperous city on the planet Gilgamesh, and also the place where the Gilgamesh family members live the most.

As early as yesterday afternoon, all sorts of invitations flew like carrier pigeons to various parts of the universe, heading to famous inhabited planets such as Star Dragon Star, Secret Eye Star, Ared Star, Panridas Star, and Dark Star.

At the same time, they were also sent to special places or civilization clusters of strange domains such as the Endless Domain, the Misty Realm, and the Catgirl Manor.

Especially the planet Ared, where the Earth God Kingdom of Absolute Defense is located, and the planet Panridas, where the Earth God Kingdom of Paradox Joker is located, are super-large life-bearing planets that are no less than Caligi, and countless important figures have come here.

Unfortunately, because of the legend that the "Proof of Eternity" was about to be born, the planet Caligia was sealed off by the two righteous gods, the "Silver Universe" and the "Nature Monarch." Naturally, invitations could not be sent in, and no one came.

However, once the [Proof of Eternity] finds its owner and the planetary barrier is broken, the planet Calig will still send someone to deliver a congratulatory gift.

At this moment, the blazing sunlight illuminated the entire Golden Blood City, making it bright and clear everywhere. Humans, giants, mist people, blade people, demons, tall people, dwarfs, fat people, thin people—all kinds of humans or demi-humans, came from afar and entered the Golden Blood City one after another.

The already bustling and noisy City of Golden Blood was now even more crowded and lively, with tourists everywhere, some of whom were spending lavishly on the goods they wanted.

Of course, those qualified to be invited by the Gilgamesh family, one of the three most powerful divine families in the universe, are at least angels, and even angels are rare; rulers and extraordinary monarchs are more common.

As for demigods and those below demigod level, there are even fewer of them. Most of them are relatives of rulers or extraordinary monarchs, who are brought along to broaden their horizons.

Therefore, these tourists were all incredibly wealthy, which brought a wave of commercial prosperity to the City of Golden Blood and even the entire planet Gilgamesh.

The owners of the Secret Trade and the Gold Miners' Guild were also invited. These two even personally led a caravan, intending to take this opportunity to make some trade with the Gilgamesh family.

At this very moment, in the most luxurious hotel in Golden Blood City.

In the Emperor Suite of the hotel, Xia Fa stood alone behind the window, gazing out over the entire Golden Blood City. Looking at the bustling streets and the lively commercial district, he sighed with emotion.

"It's a pity that my cousin and Tefaro can't come, my other cousins ​​and Fufreio can't come either, and Marshal Gaius and Prince Justinian probably didn't even receive an invitation."

Without any familiar faces to witness him ascend to the position of head of the Gilgamesh family and announce his identity as the Holy Spirit of Destiny, Xia Fa always felt that something was missing.

Fortunately, he wasn't completely unfamiliar with anyone. He spotted Giant, the old patriarch of the Giant Clan of Dark Star, who stood out from the crowd on the street at a height of nearly five meters.

He remembered that his [Mystic Singularity] was given to him by the old patriarch of the Giant clan; otherwise, he would probably find it difficult to find such a rare and precious overlord-level secret contract now.

In addition, Xia Fa also saw the Mist King, the leader of the Mist People. When he first entered the city, he was a giant of a thousand meters, like a giant who created the world, but after entering the city, he turned into the size of an ordinary person.

Back then, at the Fog Carnival, in the land of the gods in the desert, the Fog King seemed to have fought against the Crimson Agent.

Moreover, if it weren't for the Mist King's intervention, I would probably have been accidentally crushed to death by the Crimson Executor.

After this grand banquet of the family patriarch, once we return to Caligi, the first thing we need to deal with is this damned Crimson Agent.

Xia Fa's thoughts drifted far away, when suddenly—

when--!

when--!

when!

Three distant and ancient bells rang out, seemingly resonating in people's souls. In the City of Golden Blood, many people stopped in their tracks and involuntarily looked towards the magnificent and imposing palace at the deepest part of the city.

The sound of the bell signifies that the family head assembly has officially begun!
