Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Retreating did cross Daisy’s mind when she found out that Stanley died at Gu Nan’s hands.

In any case, their top-level combat power was stronger than that of the Myriad Heavens. Victory or defeat in battles at the greater god level could not be determined by the number of participants on each side alone. It wasn’t too late to retreat now and focus on defense.

More importantly, there weren’t many people left in the Dark Faction anymore.

Apart from herself and Baal, there were only five other greater gods in the Dark Faction.

Now that Beast God Bridges and Demon King Stanley both died at Gu Nan's hands, only the Ruler of Nightmares and two others were left in the Dark Faction.

But the Light Faction’s situation seemed even bleaker, yet Austin was still determined to continue, so she could only grit her teeth and follow. At such a time, the World of Gods must remain united.

"Are we heading to Clockwork Heaven next?" Baal asked from the side. He utterly loathed the guy who interfered with their plans just now.

But Austin said, "No, let's start elsewhere. Lu Wen's ability will only be more effective in Clockwork Heaven."

Even though he also wanted to tear Lu Wen into a million pieces, Austin was still clearheaded.

What they lacked most right now was time. They must kill as many Unified Dao opponents as possible in the shortest possible time.

The reason they attacked God Emperor Heaven was because Emperor Zhao was already heavily injured and wasn’t as strong as Yu Lian and Jiu Po in the first place, so he was considered the most cost-effective target.

More importantly, if they didn’t find a way to force Unified Dao cultivators to return to the Myriad Heavens, the greater gods on the frontlines wouldn’t be able to hold out for any longer.

Boswell had already returned to the battlefield, joining forces with Eugene and the three Dark Faction greater gods. Only then were they able to barely withstand the attacks of the Unified Dao enemies after Lu Wen returned to the frontlines.

And this was even after the Ruler of Ashen Cyan risked his life to force Myriad Laws Heaven’s Li Ci and Alkaid Heaven’s Huo Kui to flee.

Austin had a good grasp of the war’s overall situation and immediately led the two to the next target—Weapon Martial Heaven.

……

"Is it Zou Jiming's turn?" Of course Gu Nan noticed the situation in the Myriad Heavens and realized that Austin’s group had switched targets. He couldn't help laughing.

Zou Jiming, who was on the frontline battlefield, naturally rushed back to his own astral world as soon as possible.

In any case, the Myriad Heavens still held the advantage on the frontlines right now, so there was no pressure for the tbeing.

However, Gu Nan knew that as the number of people on both sides continued to dwindle, this advantage would becsmaller and smaller. Because the fewer enemies he had to deal with, the more confident Boswell would become.

The gap in top-end combat power between the two sides was just now beginning to show.

Among the four top-tier gods, only one of them needed to be present on the frontlines to hold back the majority of the Unified Dao cultivators.

But currently standing before Gu Nan was another greater god. To be precise, it was just the projection of a greater god—not everyone was like Stanley, capable of making thousands of incarnations and daring to show himself before Gu Nan.

"Kenneth, long tno see!" Gu Nan's law of shadows continued to spread outwards, but he leisurely greeted Kenneth.

That's right. He was now standing in the Nightmare Divine Kingdom, and his next target was the Ruler of Nightmares, Kenneth.

No, it would be more correct to say Gu Nan's next three targets. After appearing in the Nightmare Divine Kingdom and greeting Kenneth, he went directly to the Tyrannical Storms Divine Kingdom.

The Greater God of Tyrannical Storms, Leyman, received a fright and quickly left the frontlines to return to his Divine Kingdom, but a small swath of his Divine Kingdom’s inhabitants had already been killed by the shadows.

Next was naturally the River Styx Divine Kingdom. August, the Ruler of Styx, seemed to understand Gu Nan's plan and resisted the urge to return, remaining on the frontlines for a while longer.

As a result, Gu Nan simply stayed in the Styx Divine Kingdom a little longer, and the law of shadows spread out at an extremely fast speed, killing Styx believers in droves.

Therefore, as a last resort, the Ruler of Styx had no choice but to abandon the frontlines and rush back to his own Divine Kingdom.

Gu Nan's move directly forced the Dark Faction’s three greater gods to leave the frontlines, which greatly increased the pressure on the battlefield’s remaining greater gods. Boswell and Eugene, the only two left, struggled to hold on.

Austin and the others also noticed Gu Nan's actions, but there was nothing they could do—because only Gu Nan could do something like this.

Only someone like Gu Nan, who was incredibly familiar with the World of Gods, could freely travel between the three major Divine Kingdoms.

On the other hand, Austin’s group was completely blind in the Myriad Heavens. They had trouble finding even a single astral world, so how could they have the ability to cand go without leaving a trace?

Thanks to Jiu Po's presence, teleportation was sealed for the greater gods here, forcing them to waste even more time.

Therefore, while large forces had a large force’s advantages, guerilla warfare also had its own advantages. In terms of strategic choice, both sides were trying to maximize their own strengths.

Just like this, Gu Nan wandered between the three major Divine Kingdoms, giving none of them a chance to breathe. His progress wasn’t much slower than conquering the Divine Kingdoms one after another.

This was also an experience Gu Nan learned after dealing with the Beast God.

Gu Nan discovered that in fact, when killing a Divine Kingdom’s inhabitants using the law of shadows, a lot of twas not actually spent on killing, but on playing games with the enemy greater gods.

For example, he had to look for places not under the greater god’s protection to massacre and find cracks in the protected areas. But when Gu Nan started working on three Divine Kingdoms at once, this twas saved and used to kill believers inside another Divine Kingdom instead.

It was no wonder that Gu Nan didn’t think of this strategy at first. After all, he rarely encountered such a perfect farming opportunity in the game. At most, he only engaged in guerrilla warfare, during which saving twasn’t even a concern.

Gu Nan, who was operating on three fronts, was making rapid progress, but Austin’s group also worked hard, and their progress was no slower than Gu Nan's.

In just a few short minutes—because Zou Jiming was weaker than Emperor Zhao to begin with—Weapon Martial Heaven was breached in the blink of an eye, and he himself had no choice but to abandon his astral world and flee.

Austin’s group had no intention of pursuing him because they’d already achieved their goal.

A Unified Dao cultivator who lost his astral world would never dare to show himself in this Great War anymore, which was tantamount to losing his combat effectiveness. Because as long as he dared to show up, he would definitely face the despairing situation of all the top-tier gods ganging up to kill him.

"Next one," Austin said coldly.

The Unified Dao cultivators were forced back from the frontlines one after another, then saw their astral worlds destroyed. The originally glorious Sixteen Heavens suddenly becbarren places devoid of life.

Even in astral worlds that had yet to be attacked, a large number of residents with considerable strength already fled—because no one knew whether they would be the next to suffer.

On the contrary, Gu Nan's Divine Kingdom remained tranquil and peaceful. No one could enter, and Austin’s group also had no intention of attacking this place.

It was the sreason why they didn’t attack Void Grotto Heaven and Jiu Po Heaven. The Star Rulers of these three astral worlds were too strong. Once they gained a hfield advantage, Austin’s group was likely to be stalled to death there.

At best, their enemies would just send a different person to attack the World of Gods; it would be utterly meaningless.

This was the problem caused by a lack of information. If they understood how Evil Gods worked, they would definitely not have such a stupid thought. But it was a pity that no one else in this world knew as much about Evil Gods.

Tpassed by, and after the three greater gods worked hard and finally hit all the weaker astral worlds at least once, Gu Nan's progress also cto an end.
