After hesitating for a long time, Wei Chen raised his head and looked at the Sea God, saying calmly, "Senior Sea God, I have a few questions I would like you to answer."
Upon hearing this, the Sea God nodded and smiled, "Go ahead."
Wei Chen asked, "Senior Sea God, previously, when you died, that powerful Secondary God was able to occupy your Ancestral Realm and absorb the Power of Belief that originally belonged to you?"
"Yes, that's correct," the Senior Sea God replied with a nod.
Wei Chen continued, "Then may I ask why he didn't just kill you directly?"
"Heh heh, kill me directly? The Secondary God did not possess the strength to kill me. Only a Third-Level Deity could do that."
The Senior Sea God paused for a moment before adding, "In fact, even a Third-Level Deity would have to pay a significant price to kill me. Once you reach the Divine Realm, it's not so easy to kill someone; after all, I'm not one of those weak Boundary Gods."
Hearing this, Wei Chen slightly nodded and pondered for a moment before asking, "Senior Sea God, I have another question. In our world, the human race does not have faith in gods. So where does the so-called Power of Belief come from?"
Upon hearing Wei Chen's question, the Senior Sea God smiled slightly and said, "Your question is actually quite simple. Those who develop faith in gods actively contribute their Power of Belief for us to absorb. In your world, since there is no faith in gods, it means we actively draw Power of Belief from it."
"What exactly is the Power of Belief?" Wei Chen inquired further.
"It is essentially the essence of your Mental Strength. Gods constantly absorb the essence of their subjects' Mental Strength within their territories. Pure Power of Belief is highly beneficial to gods; however, when drawn actively, it can be somewhat mixed. Generally speaking, gods will set up temples in their own worlds to absorb Power of Belief."
"Then why doesn't our world have that?" Wei Chen asked again.
The Senior Sea God replied, "Because of my existence. I have become the False World God here; therefore, that Secondary God cannot absorb Power of Belief in this place."
"What do you mean?" Wei Chen did not understand.
The Senior Sea God explained, "In fact, within a world, there can only be one Heart of the God. Even though I do not control this land, my Heart of the God is here. As long as I am here, I am considered the Boundary God of this place. Since I am the Boundary God, other gods naturally cannot come here to absorb the world's Power of Belief."
After listening to the Senior Sea God's explanation, Wei Chen thought for a while and asked, "Sea God, then why don't you absorb the Power of Belief from our world?"
"I am trapped by a formation; how can I absorb it? If I could absorb it, then you wouldn't have anything to do with it," the Senior Sea God said while rolling his eyes at Wei Chen.
Wei Chen awkwardly scratched his head and said, "Senior Sea God, I have one last question."
"Just ask directly, why all the nonsense?" Senior Sea God replied, feeling exasperated.
Wei Chen chuckled, "What is the world of gods like?"
Senior Sea God explained, "There is a place called the Endless Divine Realm, where countless gods or divine races reside. Within the Endless Divine Realm, the native divine races and our newly ascended divine races are not harmonious and often engage in battles. The fights between gods usually cause catastrophic destruction; if they were to battle in an ordinary Spatial Plane, it would collapse entirely. However, in the Endless Divine Realm, they can fight like normal beings because the Spatial Plane there is of such high caliber that even gods cannot destroy it."
"Our newly ascended divine races may not be as powerful as the native Earth God race within the Endless Divine Realm, but since we are immortal and have our own Ancestral Land, it is difficult for us to be killed. Therefore, our strength can be considered comparable to that of the divine races in the Endless Divine Realm," Senior Sea God continued.
"If I absorb your Heart of the God, will I definitely become the Boundary God of this Spatial Plane?" Wei Chen asked.
"Naturally, you will," Senior Sea God answered.
"Is it very difficult to absorb?" Wei Chen inquired.
"It's manageable. With my help, it shouldn't be too hard," Senior Sea God replied.
"What about the threat from that Secondary God? Is there any way to deal with it?" Wei Chen asked again.
This question was crucial, involving matters of life and death. The threat from a Secondary God was terrifying; it was not something that an Ancient World Great Being could compare to.
Senior Sea God shook his head and said, "If luck is on your side, I can arrive in time to help you. If luck is not on your side, by the time I get there, you might already be dead."
A desperate situation?
Wei Chen forced a bitter smile. It was like having a giant cake in front of him that he could only look at but not eat—what kind of experience was that?
It truly felt helpless and bitter!
Given such danger, Wei Chen would not recklessly attempt it.
But the words of the Senior Sea God gave Wei Chen new hope.
"Child, you need not be disheartened; there is a way," the Senior Sea God said, looking at Wei Chen calmly.
Hearing this, Wei Chen felt a surge of excitement and quickly asked, "Senior, what is the way?"
"There are rules among gods. Within ten thousand years of a Boundary God's birth, no god is allowed to hunt that Boundary God or enter their Ancestral Land. This means that for ten thousand years, you can cultivate freely. If you can reach the realm of a First-Level Deity, then everything will be fine; a Secondary God cannot kill you. But if you fail and do not reach the realm of a First-Level Deity within those ten thousand years, when that Secondary God comes for you, it will basically be a dead end," the Senior Sea God explained.
He was not exaggerating; he was telling Wei Chen the only solution he could think of. In fact, it was not even his idea but rather a rule established by the Endless Divine Realm. The regulations set forth by the Endless Divine Realm were not to be defied by anyone. They were established by the eighteen most powerful Supreme Gods.
After all, among the gods, Boundary Gods were incredibly weak and could easily be eliminated if they were not careful. To maintain fresh blood in the Endless Divine Realm, such regulations were necessary.
Otherwise, Boundary Gods would perish without a trace, and the Endless Divine Realm would lack new blood. The eighteen Supreme Gods who made this decision included both native Supreme Gods of the Endless Divine Realm and those who had risen from outside. Regardless of their origins, these Supreme Gods were visionary individuals; they could turn a blind eye to their lower-ranked gods fighting among themselves, but when it came to the operation of the entire Endless Divine Realm, they could not afford to be careless.
The rule was extremely strict; no one dared to violate it. Or rather, no god dared to defy it. If anyone did and was discovered by the Endless Divine Realm, they would face dire consequences, even having their Ancestral Land destroyed.
Wei Chen's opportunity lay here: ten thousand years to cultivate to the First-Level Divine Realm would allow him to avoid disaster. By then, when that Secondary God arrived, they would only be exhausted and ineffective.
A glimmer of hope began to shine in Wei Chen's eyes—a hope for the future.
"Senior Sea God, how can I cultivate to become a First-Level Deity?" Wei Chen asked.
The Senior Sea God replied, "Transitioning from a Boundary God to a First-Level Deity is actually not difficult; with proper effort over ten thousand years, it is possible. For example, after I became a Boundary God, I ventured into another world and conquered ten Spatial Planes of the same level, which allowed me to become a First-Level Deity. In other words, after you become a Boundary God in the Demon Realm, if you conquer ten worlds of equal standing with the Demon Realm and become their False World Gods, you will break through to become a First-Level Deity."
"False World God? What does that mean?" Wei Chen asked in confusion.
The Senior Sea God explained, "Every god can only have one Ancestral Realm; other worlds remain under the control of that Boundary God. They are considered False World Gods because they do not possess their own Heart of the God. Without the protection of a Heart of the God in those other worlds, they cannot truly claim them as their own nor can they be regarded as true Boundary Gods there. However, they can still absorb Power of Belief without much issue."
"Senior, isn't your Heart of the God in danger now that it's in the Demon Realm? Without its protection in your Ancestral Realm?" Wei Chen asked.
The Senior Sea God reassured him: "It's not as exaggerated as that. When I travel outside, my Heart of the God always accompanies me. Within my Ancestral Realm, there is a projection of my Heart of the God; other gods will not dare to provoke me lightly."
"For example, if I controlled your world, I would be the False World God here, with my Heart of the God residing within me, projected in my Ancestral Realm," the Senior Sea God continued.
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen gained a basic understanding of the Boundary God and the False World God.
"Senior, if I absorb your Heart of the God and become the Boundary God of the Demon Realm, can I still cultivate in other Spatial Planes? If I go to those Spatial Planes, wouldn't that give me an overwhelming advantage? Those worlds must also have their own Boundary Gods, right?" Wei Chen asked.
The Senior Sea God chuckled, "It's not that simple. Once you become the Boundary God of the Demon Realm, your strength won't see a dramatic increase; you'll merely have absolute control over this world. Control and strength are not the same thing. After becoming a Boundary God, you'll need to absorb the Power of Belief from this world and transform it into Divine Power within yourself, gradually cultivating from there. Similarly, you can venture into other worlds. In those worlds without a Boundary God, you can condense the Heart of the World and become their False World God, allowing you to control those worlds. The more worlds you control, the more powerful Power of Belief you can absorb. Once transformed into Divine Power, you can slowly cultivate to the level of a First-Level Deity."
"Senior, what would my strength be like after becoming the Boundary God of this world?"
"You could probably eliminate a hundred of the strongest individuals in this world in an instant. According to divine regulations, Boundary Gods are considered the lowest tier of gods and are on equal footing with each other. However, their strengths can vary greatly; it's just that other Boundary Gods won't be able to kill you in your own world," the Senior Sea God explained.
Wei Chen pondered for a moment and suddenly realized that going to another Boundary God's world could be quite dangerous.
"Senior, if I enter a world where there is a Boundary God present, can they kill me?" Wei Chen asked anxiously.
He thought about how risky it would be to venture out for resources if that world had an existing Boundary God—wouldn't that spell disaster for him?
The Senior Sea God waved his hand dismissively and said with a smile, "Other Boundary Gods cannot kill you; at most, they could shatter your body. You would instantly resurrect in your Ancestral Realm and begin cultivating anew."
"Also, whether or not a world has a Boundary God is something you'll know once you become one. Generally speaking, Boundary Gods don't seek out trouble in each other's worlds. They can't kill each other and risk being beaten back to their initial state—no one wants that."
The Senior Sea God looked at Wei Chen and added, "Of course, you don't necessarily need to control ten identical worlds. If you can control a higher-level Spatial Plane—one tier above your current Spatial Plane—you could become a First-Level Deity. Some Boundary Gods break through to the First-Level Divine Realm immediately upon becoming Boundary Gods due to the strength of their original Spatial Plane."
