Starting with Growing Mushrooms-Chapter 430 - 333: The Divine Era of Despair Returns

Chapter 430: Chapter 333: The Divine Era of Despair Returns

Time rewinds to the parallel world on the other side, several years ago.

Longevity Tree.

With a gigantic form, Xiangtuo Mo leans against the Longevity Tree, sitting cross-legged, drinking and watching the distant chaotic sun.

"Thankfully, the dream restarts, back to thirty thousand years ago."

"At the beginning of the Sun God Era, before Chaos erupted."

"Indeed, our place is a dream, all a virtual world, the dream can restart anytime with the master’s will."

Since awakening as an NPC, Xiangtuo Mo has been incredibly relaxed.

No longer entangled by the truth of his existence.

This is a parallel world, on the same level as the Death World.

This place can restart anytime because it’s not yet complete; it’s the embryo seed of a virtual world...

Once this world becomes a real world, it will no longer be a dream and can’t restart at will.

And through his research, he found out.

Like the Death World, their parallel world also has only one.

They are also unique.

"Let’s wait for the arrival of the Parallel Divine Object."

He could almost see a beautiful future.

Sure enough.

Suddenly, he saw a stream of light approaching from afar, and he stood up in surprise and joy: "That beam of light, the Parallel Divine Object has appeared!"

At this moment, a figure appeared on the ancient tree, and the Longevity Divine Spirit said calmly:

"Not only that, the Death Divine Object has also appeared; Anu has gone to seek it."

Indeed.

The Death God of this world is the dog-headed god Anu.

One of Xiangtuo Mo’s former giants, the Death God guarding the gates, who ferries the dead with a raft.

Xiangtuo Mo pondered:

"It seems that, although we don’t have a Divine Trial, once the Divine Object appears on the other side, a corresponding Divine Object will also appear here!"

It’s just regrettable that the Divine Objects appearing here are all fake, not real!

They can only be described as mirage projections of the Divine Objects!

"We are just like the mirror world on the other side!"

Xiangtuo Mo reached a very apt conclusion.

The Longevity Divine Spirit suddenly said, "No, our Divine Objects here are all fake, but now there is one Divine Object that is real, the one that flew in from the parallel world!"

"Ah?" Xiangtuo Mo was startled.

If the Parallel Divine Object is real, then doesn’t the real world lack this Divine Object?

Could it belong to our world as the only unique real Divine Object?

Xiangtuo Mo couldn’t help but ask, "What should we do then? Take this Divine Object for ourselves?"

The Longevity Divine Spirit shook his head, "No need, the Divine Object should land in the hands of the host it is destined for, to unleash the greatest value. We do not have a high compatibility with this Divine Object."

Xiangtuo Mo could only suppress the itch in his heart, quietly awaiting the birth of the Parallel God.

The Death God, ruler of the Death World.

The Parallel God, ruler of their parallel world?

However.

Xiangtuo Mo could be certain that [Parallel] and [Death] are different.

The Death God is the ruler of the Death World.

And if the Parallel God wants to become the ruler here? It would depend on whether the Longevity God, God, and others would agree.

Several more years passed.

They soon discovered the birth of a new Divine Spirit.

The Parallel God Mogan Nan.

This god appears to be an elderly magician; this white-robed old man spends his days in the lab tinkering with things, passionate about cultivation and management.

He opened a new parallel world, then guided his students to expand territories for him, leveling up and battling monsters.

To hone skills over there...

Clearly.

That parallel world also has Divine Objects and its own god.

But here, once they arrive, they can’t bring the Divine Objects from their world; Divine Spirits become mortal here.

Seeing this, Xiangtuo Mo, observing secretly, sighed: "The ability of the low-level Parallel Divine Object is to open a passage to a parallel world, is it?"

This seems normal.

But it’s not normal here.

This place is originally a virtual dream world; can we open another parallel world passage and create another dream world?

What is this?

Dream within a dream?

Mirror of a mirror?

Thinking of this, Xiangtuo Mo couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed, "Could another parallel world emerge and chase us here for battle?"

And Xiangtuo Mo’s ominous premonition came true.

Because that old magician opened the passage, with constant expansion and management, he really caused chaos.

As described in the introduction of the Divine Object, this Divine Object opens a passage but attracts new enemies.

"What? How did you come over? You’re clearly from the parallel world I was managing over there."

"This is madness, madness, I’m simply a sinner!"

Armies from the parallel world rapidly descended, erupting in a frenzied war with this world.

Originally, this wouldn’t have mattered!

The gods on the other side would lose their Divine Objects upon arriving, becoming mortals...

But because their God was severely injured, fell into a coma, and lost the guiding principle, everyone was quickly defeated.

"This is not good!"

"These damned enemies, possessing such strength even as mortals!"

Even among the gods, fear arose, with life at risk.

Among them, Fortuna, who was here disguised as a player, felt her heart in chaos:

"This is unbelievable, wasn’t the original trajectory supposed to be the Sun God Chaos Era? How did the trajectory of this world become an era of multidimensional invasion?"

At this time, Fortuna felt the problem wasn’t too serious.

Because God’s severe injury didn’t matter, wasn’t the Longevity God still present? As long as he makes a move...

But clearly.

He chose not to make a move at all.

During the Chaos Disaster, he observed from the sidelines, quietly watching the rise and fall of the era.

The current Parallel Disaster is the same!

At this moment, Fortuna and this world’s Sun God, Bal, along with the evolving Demon God Xiangtuo Mo, could only barely resist the relentless invasion of the enemy.

Furthermore, because it is a mirror world, that world had also already passed the Twelve Trials.

The Heavenly Dao nurtured by the ascending world had also come to kill.

"We are in the Heavenly Dao Will Era, we are very powerful!" An unprecedented Heavenly Dao made its appearance.

The two baby Heavenly Daos, Madra and Mandar, were also frantically organizing resistance here, "Damned newborn infant, actually coming to kill us both!"

But they were horrified to discover.

The opposing world was not the Sun God Era, but the Heavenly Dao Will Era.

Their Heavenly Dao was very strong.

They themselves were like untrained weaklings, completely unable to fight against this Heavenly Dao.

"Seize the Divine Object of the parallel god!"

"Kill!"

"Defeat Mogan Nan, and hold the initiative of entering and exiting in our hands!"

A great battle then erupted.

Heaven and earth were shattered.

Islands in the ocean were destroyed, the vast sea torn apart, countless tsunamis claiming the lives of innumerable intelligent beings.

Many animals, Divine Spirits, various races, and demons from the Otherworld were thrown into the sun, devoured and roasted alive on the sun’s surface.

They were like locusts ravaging divine sects, countless nations.

The entire world descended into a living hell.

Even the Death World was overcrowded.

This is the new divine disaster: the Parallel Disaster.

...

Reality.

"I see."

God’s expression was exceedingly calm.

After all, he had seen all sorts of chaotic divine disasters.

Wisdom Disaster, Silence Disaster, Water and Fire Disaster, Transmission Disaster, Fate Disaster, Chaos Disaster...

As for the mere Parallel Disaster, it was only mediocre.

However, speaking of which, a divine disaster created by a low-level Divine Object could stir such a storm.

This Divine Object was unprecedented.

Opening a passageway, something seemingly simple, triggered an astounding chain reaction.

"And so?" God asked blandly.

"So, I want to ask what should be done?" Fortuna also felt somewhat at a loss.

"That’s a false world, why don’t you have a dream, restart time, and revert to the beginning of the dream?" God suddenly suggested.

"No, I cannot do that."

Fortuna said, "As that world’s order is perfected, I’ve gradually been losing control over the parallel mirror world."

"I see."

God pondered, "As the world perfects itself, your control weakens, and the true master, the parallel Divine Object, has begun to take over the reins of that world."

Liu Jun showed a hint of interest on his face.

He originally thought the Death World was his enemy and that conflict was bound to erupt eventually.

Unexpectedly, the Death World remained obedient, while the parallel world was in chaos.

"What does Xiangtuo Mo say about the other side?" God asked.

Fortuna replied, "Xiangtuo Mo’s analysis is interesting; he believes this is a Sixth Tier tragic cycle."

God, being immensely wise, instantly understood the meaning with just a few words.

Was Xiangtuo Mo using Sixth Tier reproduction as a metaphor?

Each world can only produce one mirror parallel world.

This is equivalent to each world being able to have only one offspring!

Now, the First Divine Era World, the Second Divine Era World, the Third Divine Era World have already appeared.

And each one contemplates patricide?

The Second Divine Era World previously considered killing them on this side, inner conflict among gods, is the classic Sixth Tier tragedy: the son kills the father.

Now, is the Third Era World also making a move against them?

Liu Jun’s expression was extremely peculiar:

"If you put it that way, it actually seems reasonable, especially now that these worlds have all developed self-awareness."

"Humans can pass the Twelve Trials, worlds can also pass the Twelve Trials; one by one, the worlds indeed have become infants, truly killing their parents generation after generation."

Liu Jun felt Xiangtuo Mo truly deserved to be the God of Knowledge, immediately seeing through the essence of this era.

The future... is destined to be a multidimensional mythological world.

But this multidimensional is very unique!

Multiple worlds...

Are actually born one from another, the father gives birth to the son, the son gives birth to the grandson...

A lineage of succession.

Thinking we had broken the vicious cycle of the curse.

Who knew we had actually entered a larger loop?

Still, the same pathological strengthening mode!

This time, it’s the world considered as life, reproducing, and again a patricidal process.

The world is truly wondrous.

Or rather, thinking we had escaped a despair only to face a greater despair.

Liu Jun couldn’t help but sigh:

How disgusting.

Such a worldview is too despairing.

Fortuna continued:

"Based on currently known information."

"The invading Third Divine Era World reportedly wants to seize that parallel Divine Object. As long as they control the portal, they can decide whether to give birth to the Fourth Divine Era World and hold the initiative to invade other worlds!"

The parallel entrance, this Divine Object is a unique existence.

Once you obtain this thing, you control the gateway to invasion.

Liu Jun thought the information was quite substantial, "So? What do you want us to do?"

Fortuna couldn’t help but say:

"I’m just afraid that after the grandson of the Third Divine Era finishes off their father, they’ll crawl over along the network and come to kill us, the grandfather."

Liu Jun: "..."

Your concern is very valid.
