...
One day later.
In Divine Wood Spring City, within the headquarters of the Watchers.
The many current Watchers gathered in this Earthly Divine Kingdom belonging to the God of the Human World, discussing expressionlessly how to handle the upcoming matters.
The matter of the Great Venerable of Flame’s Divine Format being fused by an Outsider was, of course, known to the Watchers who were the real handlers in this.
It wasn’t as the many Demigods thought, ’the God of the Human World relinquishing divine authority,’ but was forcibly fused by that fierce Outsider female using some special method!
These two are different!
Since Sos has not released the authority to ascend to divinity, there is no hope for the beings of the Cosmic Realm to ascend to divine status. Those who rashly act to seize the Divine Format, even if they actually obtain it, will ultimately only be assimilated by it, becoming part of the Divine Format.
Without Sos’s permission, no one in the Cosmic Realm can become a god!
This is an open secret among the Watchers.
No matter how prepared you are, how deep your accumulation, and how compatible you are with the Divine Format, as long as the God of the Human World does not permit it, you cannot ascend to divinity, not even the slightest chance!
Because the God of the Human World has not granted approval.
"Those guys outside are causing such a ruckus, what should we do, just leave them be, letting them perish on their own?"
"Heragel Wood, you previously went to ask His Majesty Sos for instructions, did you receive any response?"
"His Majesty Sos did not give a response. His Majesty has been very busy lately, seemingly preoccupied with planning the world’s future, without time for these trivial matters."
"Praise His Majesty!"
"...Praise His Majesty!"
The Watchers expressionlessly praised Sos once, as for what they thought in their hearts, no one knew.
The Watchers are the most powerful force within the Cosmic Realm, and can even be said to be the main body of the Cosmic Realm.
By its own strength alone, it can rival the accumulation of power among the three hundred Divine Kingdoms above and the nine major regions below combined.
This, of course, owes partially to Sos being the God of the Human World, but on the other hand, the strength of the many Watchers is naturally not weak.
The reason why there are not many strong individuals from the Watchers appearing frequently in the Cosmic Realm is simply because most strong individuals among the Watchers are either extracting resources in the Star Realm or stationed in some Divine Kingdom, not running around everywhere.
So here’s the question.
Even the cultivators outside are thinking about ascending to godhood, is the interior of the Watchers, as a gathering place of strong individuals, truly as loyal to Sos as they seem, without any other thoughts?
Ha, perhaps....
"Alright, we should discuss the next proposal. Recently, the Outsiders intruding into the Cosmic Realm have been causing a lot of trouble. Although His Majesty Sos said not to bother, I think some appropriate restraints are still necessary, as long as no large-scale conflicts occur with these Outsiders."
"I agree, but who will deal with that fierce Outsider female, she is the one causing the most trouble."
"..."
"..."
"I propose we put off dealing with her."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"..."
"Alright then, Amridan’s proposal has gained over eighty percent agreement, that terrifying female can be set aside for now. Let’s continue, everyone, tell us about any Outsiders emerging in your guarded area and whether they need to be dealt with."
"Energy fluctuations appeared outside the Cyan Wood Longevity Realm, it seems Outsiders have entered it."
"Set aside."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"Second...this isn’t normal! My brothers! That is the Cyan Wood Longevity Realm! It’s one of the five supreme Divine Kingdoms! Are you really going to set aside this proposal?" A Watcher from the Central Ring Endless Sea was about to routinely second the motion, but suddenly woke up, roaring at the council!
However, what returned were the calm gazes from its companions.
Still expressionless.
"What else then, Black Beast, if you can find the exact location of the Cyan Wood Longevity Realm, we don’t mind locking it down for extraction, if not, please remain rational and sit back down."
"Then what is the point of this meeting? The Divine Format of the Great Venerable of Fire was taken, the Divine Format of the Sky God was recovered by His Majesty, the Cyan Wood Divine Format is being seized, the Ocean Divine Format is stored with His Majesty! What about us? What’s the point of our existence?"
"No point, Black Beast, our existence is just to make the Cosmic better, this should have been told to you on your first day joining the Watchers, during the oath."
"Don’t you want to become gods?!"
"The Cosmic Realm has only one God, and can only have one, that is the truth for the Cosmic Realm recovering from ancient ruin to the current state."
"I don’t believe it!"
"You can disbelieve, but you can’t change all this, alright Black Beast, please sit down, don’t waste everyone’s time, we are still in a meeting."
"Damn the meeting! This kind of meeting that decides nothing, I can’t go on with it! I....."
The Watcher named Black Beast seemed to fly into a rage in that instant, but in the next second, it sat down as if its spirit had been drained, with a trace of despair.
The host of this Watcher meeting did not seem surprised by this, nodded expressionlessly when Black Beast sat down.
"Next proposal."
"The Divine Position of the Sun God is at risk of being breached by those Demigods. To ensure the smooth extraction of Flame Sun Crystals, the Flame Sun Divine Kingdom needs support."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"The proposal passes, in the next sunset, an elite team of Watchers will appear in the Flame Sun Divine Kingdom."
"Next proposal."
"There have been some minor issues with the extraction in the Frost Dragon Kingdom, those Dragon Descendants are unhappy with our violent extraction from the Dragon Kingdom, leading to some minor conflicts, as the leader of the Frost Dragon Kingdom’s extraction group, I hope to be allowed to a certain degree of extinction on these dragon species, reducing their numbers to a manageable level."
"Seconded."
"Vetoed! Those with Dragon God lineage are also a precious resource! You should not extract them violently! This will make us lose a stable dragon resource for the next thousand years!"
"Veto +1."
"Seconded...."
A minute later, the host, seeing that there wasn’t much difference in opinion among the Watchers opposite, looked expressionlessly at Amannigle, who was responsible for managing the Watchers’ warehouse, and asked: "How long can the resources from the Ice Dragon Kingdom in our inventory last?"
"If there’s no Star Realm War, enough for seven thousand years, of course, this is not why I agree with reducing the Ice Dragons’ numbers."
As one of the bigwigs among the Watchers, Amannigle also answered expressionlessly.
Hmm, its origin is both a giant dragon of the Frost Dragon Kingdom and the Frost Dragon King of two generations ago.
The host looked at it, calmly said:
"The proposal passes, the Frost Dragon Kingdom’s resource extraction group is allowed to slightly reduce the ancient god bloodline within the kingdom, but the numbers should be controlled between one-third to half, I believe no one wants a day to come when we face a lack of dragon blood coagulant if we need to mine the star core."
The materials produced by the Frost Dragon Race are many, among which the dragon blood coagulant specifically used to counter Gao Wen is undoubtedly one of the least practically valuable, although indispensable, it can be replaced.
This time, the meeting paused for five seconds in silence.
It seemed that everyone had not expected the chair of the organization meeting to make such an unreserved decision. Does it not fear situations turning around when other Watchers host future meetings?
But this silence only lasted five seconds.
Five seconds later, the direct descendant of the Frost Dragon God, Amannigle, spoke first:
"Seconded."
"Seconded..."
With Amannigle taking the lead, the others followed suit:
"Seconded."
Isn’t he going to be retaliated against for doing this?
