Chapter 1608 - 1217: Total Devouring!_2

But now he knew that the little pig was in cahoots with the Darkness gods; it was all a trap!

The Second Legion Group Leader struggled wildly, but it was in vain. Three hundred Golems were suppressing him firmly, leaving no route for escape. He had just acquired the Divine Status of all gods, which ensured his might but also meant no god would come to his rescue anymore.

The little pig grunted and moved to the side of the Darkness Priestess, watching the still-struggling Second Legion Group Leader and said, "This kind of simple scheme can only be used here once. Once we enter the sixth ring, we will face an advanced society of gods. There, acquiring Divine Status cannot be achieved through such barbaric and crude means. That’s why I was particularly eager for you to amass enough Divine Status before entering the sixth ring. However, I didn’t expect to gain this much this time."

The Darkness Priestess nodded. When the little pig first proposed this plan, she was skeptical, but the turn of events had truly surpassed her expectations.

Within the confinement, the level of the Divine Status of the Second Legion Group Leader suddenly diminished. Despite his desperate attempts to maintain it, the level of his Divine Status continued to fall. Eventually, his Divine Status returned to what it should have been originally. And due to his desperate attempts to break free from the confinement, his Divine Power was alarmingly depleted. Now he had no strength left to counterattack.

"Wait! Wait!" the Second Legion Group Leader shouted.

"I don’t accept any form of last words," said the Darkness Priestess.

Bang!

The Second Legion Group Leader exploded, his Divine Status and Divine Power absorbed by the surrounding Golems.

Though only one god, the Divine Status he held essentially encompassed more than half of all the Divine Status in the seventh ring!

Such a powerful influx of Divine Status caused the Golems’ computational cores to operate at full load for a long time before fully integrating it. In their private space, the cheating virus species were massively replicated, and Divine Power surged wildly.

Mars slowly manifested, at this moment the most tense and also the most excited being, as the planet that once only knew to constantly hide, it never dreamed of having a day like this! To be able to enter the sixth ring!

It is known that every three layers of the divine rings is a huge step. The sixth ring and the seventh ring are completely different worlds!

If one speaks of qualifications for advancement, Mars had long met the requirements to enter the sixth ring, but now, all it needs is to quietly wait.

"What’s your advice for the sixth ring?" the Darkness Priestess asked the little pig.

"My advice is, you’d be better off operating alone," grunted the pig.

"Explain in detail," the Darkness Priestess didn’t quite understand.

"According to the information I’ve assimilated, just like the seventh ring, the sixth ring still revolves around the Legions as collective entities. However, unlike the play-acting Legions of the seventh ring, the Legions within the sixth are equipped with a sufficiently advanced societal division of labor. The gods in the sixth ring are also smarter, mere reliance on force won’t work there, hence my suggestion that you first blend in as an individual. Understand the operations and rules of the sixth ring, and then consider plans for further strengthening," said the pig.

This was the first time the little pig had cautiously made such a suggestion; before this, the pig had always dismissed all enemies, and now its carefulness made the Darkness Priestess also become cautious.

With Divine Status absorbed, the passage was within reach.

"So, we can’t use the rules of beasts anymore?" the Darkness Priestess said.

"We’re about to enter a primitive civilization," replied the little pig.

"I understand," the Darkness Priestess said. "With my current level of Divine Status, what position can I occupy in the sixth layer?"

After musing for a while, the pig said, "Although there is no detailed data for comparison, considering various collateral evidence, even if not superior, it would be upper-middle class. After all, you have acquired almost the entire Divine Status of the seventh ring."

The Darkness Priestess nodded.

Linked thoughts took a while to ponder this matter, and eventually, the Darkness Priestess decided to enter the sixth ring alone. Of course, this didn’t mean that the other Golems would remain here, but rather they would enter a standby mode, hidden within the Darkness Priestess’s private space, while the thoughts of the three hundred Darkness family would stay connected to the Darkness Priestess through a thought network.

For this reason, the Darkness Priestess deliberately reduced her Divine Status strength by half—if it were a civilized society, mediocrity should be a safe option.

Everything is ready, the Darkness Saintess glanced back at the massive golden planet behind her.

"Mars, would you like to come with me?" the Darkness Saintess asked.

"Of course!" Mars felt like it was about to die of nervousness. It had never understood what so-called civilized society was, but it firmly believed that as long as it honestly followed the Darkness Saintess and obediently listened to her, there would be no problems at all!

"Then I will need you to bear with a little discomfort," said the Darkness Saintess.

Discomfort meant Mars needed to reduce its size. According to the snorting piglet, the other end of the sixth layer’s passageway didn’t have such a vast space.

Mars discarded some superfluous material and compressed the Fine Gold alloy, transforming from a massive Fine Gold planet into an Asteroid. But, its volume was still too large.

"Perfect, I have a spatial compression spell," the little pig snorted again as it jumped forward.

As for this magical pink piglet, the Darkness Saintess had already gotten somewhat used to it. It always managed to contribute its strength at critical moments.

The spatial compression spell took effect, and Mars swiftly shrank in size. Its total mass remained unchanged, but its volume had now reduced to the size of a fist.

"Alright, let’s set off!"

The little pig snorted, leading the way, with the Darkness Saintess and Mars entering the passageway at the same time.

The phantasms in front of them flickered continuously, and the surging waves of Divine Status instantly put the Darkness Saintess on guard. But when she saw her surroundings clearly, she couldn’t help but laugh dumbly.

"A new god! Another new god! Three new gods!" one god shouted.

"Quickly see what their powers are like!" another shouted.

"Not bad! None of you bastards better compete with me! They are all mine!" another god shouted.

"Bullshit! Clearly, there are three gods; why should they all belong to you!"

Before her eyes was indeed a huge, spacious, open-style building, with the cosmos and stars visible all around. The Darkness Saintess and her companions appeared at the center, surrounded by a group of gods with gleaming eyes. However, these gods showed no aggression; their sole purpose here was to recruit new gods.

"Join our Legion! Our Legion has the most perfect Divine Status distribution system in the entire sixth ring! The Divine Status is allocated based entirely on your contribution in battle, guaranteeing that every fight you participate in will yield rewards!" one god shouted loudly.

"Or join us! Our Legion’s system is even more perfect; even if you don’t participate in battles, as long as you make a contribution, you will be eligible for Divine Status allocation!" another god shouted.

"No, no, no, we are the perfect choice for you, we are from the Divine Power Source Legion, you can enhance your Divine Status without fighting!"

"Ha ha ha! Divine Power Source? That Pyramid Legion? That satisfies a few great gods by absorbing the Divine Status of lower-level smaller gods?"

The Darkness Saintess couldn’t help but laugh dumbly.

Indeed, it was completely different from what she had imagined; this place was simply like a marketplace.

It seemed that she wouldn’t be able to leave today without choosing a Legion.

"Cough cough, actually, the three of us are together," the Darkness Saintess said.

The shouting gods around them immediately gleamed with excitement because this meant that if they succeeded in persuading them, they would gain three new gods for their Legion!

"Moreover, we actually prefer to engage in some research work."
