A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 705 War of the Divine Kingdom

The stars are still shining brightly today, but compared to their usual warmth, they feel a bit colder.

So much has happened in just one hundred years.

First, Jiang Shuzhou broke through the limitations and became the controller of the laws. Then, he launched a war that swept the flames of war to every plane of the star realm. As a result, countless planes fell into a state of death and devastation.

During this time, Cyric's devouring of the other gods and ascension to godhood once again plunged the astral plane into turmoil.

Now, after a period of silence, Jiang Shuzhou is preparing to set sail again.

This time, it's about resolving destiny and reshaping the world.

The first step is to stop those gods from hiding their heads in fear.

After all, as the saying goes, it's always better to be alive than dead.

Especially for immortal beings like the gods, they have no desire to die.

After all, those who truly had guts and were unwilling to be bound had already either run away or started over, just like Roland and the former God of Fate, Sulfuras.

After a while, those who remained were naturally the old folks who didn't want to die.

"Cirik, what a brilliant plan, and what audacity! It's just a pity."

Jiang Shuzhou's figure appeared in the boundless void.

Immediately afterward, a majestic floating city appeared behind him in an instant.

With a wave of his hand, a dazzling array of stars surged forth from Jiang Shuzhou's hand, coalescing into a miniature Milky Way before him.

Among them, there was a black dot of light, as conspicuous as a black hole, which devoured the surrounding light.

"They hid themselves quite well, but unfortunately they were still careless, daring to devour and merge anything."

Jiang Shuzhou glanced around casually to confirm the location, and then, along with the floating city behind him, he teleported there.

Originally, Jiang Shuzhou was unable to locate the location of Cyric's divine kingdom by blaspheming the priests' spread of faith. However, Cyric devoured the authority of other gods and, in order to recover sooner, absorbed the believers of those gods.

These weak gods were already easily infiltrated by blasphemous priests, and now they have been brought together.

Thus, the most powerful Cyric, by merging similar items, was locked into position by Jiang Shuzhou.

However, in order to maintain the plan and avoid alerting the enemy, Jiang Shuzhou had no intention of attacking Shirek over the years.

But it's different now.

First, Jiang Shuzhou needs to use a feint and take the initiative to make the gods believe that Jiang Shuzhou's target is Cyric, thereby lowering their guard against everything in the Wardland plane.

At that time, Jiang Shuzhou will give these guys a surprise.

Furthermore, there is another advantage now: at this moment, no god will be willing to help Cyric.

After all, every god fears being betrayed. Since Cyric did such a thing, he will be all alone from now on, with no one to help him.

He may dismiss it, but soon He will realize His mistake.

Faced with a god of destiny who is one of their own and a traitorous ruler of the night, the gods should know how to choose.

The Book of Destiny may be very important to the gods, but to Jiang Shuzhou, it is nothing more than a sacrifice.

He could still control his destiny even without that tattered book.

Especially after he discovered that the records about him in the Book of Destiny were seriously inaccurate.

Fate is nothing more than a reflection of time.

However, one must take things one step at a time; it is impossible to gain complete control at once.

But in any case, Jiang Shuzhou has reclaimed the power of death, and the power of dreams.

Although part of the power of death is still in the hands of Jaeger, who refuses to leave the underworld even in death, it will be over soon.

The more deaths occur in all realms, the more power Jiang Shuzhou holds in his hands.

At first, it was a 50/50 split, but now Jiang Shuzhou is showing signs of gaining the upper hand.

Over the years, Yeger has also taken many measures, such as recruiting knowledgeable people in various planes, granting them power and protection, in the hope that they can solve the evil spirits created by Jiang Shuzhou.

But the effect is...

It's better than nothing, at least Jiang Shuzhou's pace in vying for power was somewhat slower.

Even if Yege really brought a bunch of Taoist priests, he wouldn't be able to deal with Jiang Shuzhou's vengeful ghosts in a short time.

After all, the vengeful spirits created by Jiang Shuzhou were entangled with a whole host of laws.

He created thousands of evolution templates on his own.

In other words, Jiang Shuzhou didn't go all out, since he still had to deal with his own dimension; otherwise, Yege would have been unable to cope long ago.

"I just don't know if Cyric's divine kingdom can withstand a blow."

A heavy darkness shrouded Cyric's divine realm, where assassins roamed freely, indulging in carnage and letting blood spread everywhere.

Drip, drip, blood fell from the angel's scarlet wings. The angel, which should have been pure white, now had dark red wings that symbolized death, instead of the pure white that symbolized innocence.

This is the kingdom of Cyric, a land of death, a realm filled with intrigue and slaughter.

"My lord, the gods remain silent."

On the cold throne, Cyric sat, draped in a black robe, his face expressionless.

"Those cowards... ha, but it's fine. Once I've fully digested this power, it'll be their turn!"

After saying that, Cyric suddenly crushed the skull of the unknown creature in his hand. At this moment, Cyric had a sinister grin on his face.

Upon hearing this, the angel beside him simply lowered his head and remained silent, for sometimes, saying too much is a mistake.

"Just wait, I will become a great god! I will become the most powerful deity! Whether it's Tyr or that Jiang Shuzhou, they are nothing but stepping stones for me!"

Cyric laughed maniacally, as if it were all within his grasp.

boom!

A violent tremor interrupted Cyric's madness.

Seemingly pulled from his reverie, Cyric was somewhat annoyed.

"What happened?"

Then, before He could investigate, a loud bang was heard and the day broke in God's kingdom.

The once pitch-black sky was torn apart by the colors of the stars, and enormous tentacles suddenly ripped open openings in the divine kingdom.

The source of the light was a floating city.

Immediately afterwards, countless flesh and blood creatures invaded the divine realm.

Immediately afterwards, a bloody battle began with the assassins from within the Divine Kingdom.

Then, Cyric heard a sound that He never wanted to hear again in His life.

"Cirik, I've come to see you. I heard you've been quite arrogant lately since escaping from my clutches?"
