Doomsday Code

Chapter 1034 An Imposed Disaster

The Moon Goddess, however, spoke with a cold and stern expression:

"But this is the absolute rule that you all say will never go wrong. Given his current condition, he probably won't even last until he returns. By then, the Divine Court's army will probably be here first."

Upon hearing this, the tree spirit's eyelids twitched slightly on his aged face, and then he spoke:

"Celestial Venerable, please do not frighten him. I still have confidence in the absolute laws we have established. He could never fall to that level."

"I hope so. But when I awaken again next time, I don't want to see him bossing me around. Otherwise, I have a few friends in the Divine Court. If I destroy him then, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Upon hearing this, the tree spirit's eyelids twitched repeatedly. The person in front of him was not the moon goddess worshipped by the elves, but the true form of the Moon Goddess of the Divine Court.

Don't be fooled by how powerful the God of Light seemed when dealing with the Great Bodhisattva of the Buddha Kingdom. That's because the Great Bodhisattva didn't really want to fight, and in the end, he forced the God of Light to enter hibernation mode.

As for this Moon Venerable, he is the Lord of Taiyin in the Divine Court, whose rank is half a level higher than that of the Great Bodhisattva. His friends are all Great Venerables of the Divine Court.

If they truly incurred the wrath of the Great Venerable One, their only hope would be that the plan proceeded quickly enough to allow them to return before then.

“Your Excellency, could you please lend a helping hand and save him?”

The purpose of summoning the Moon Goddess this time was to use her power to save Chen Cheng, who had already died.

In their view, Chen Cheng might already be dead, but for the more powerful Celestial Venerables, the concept of death does not exist.

For powerful beings of their caliber, as long as life has not ended, they can be resurrected, even if they are already dead gods.

However, the Moon Lord's eyes merely flickered slightly before he spoke:

"Why are you so worried about him? And what if he dies? You can just wait a few more years. This isn't the first time something like this has happened."

The moon goddess's last words seemed very harsh, but that was the truth.

The tree spirit stroked his increasingly aged and gray beard, then gave a wry smile and said:

"I'm already this old, and the time I have left for us is running out. Moreover, he is the most perfect generation, so we beg the Heavenly Venerable to take action."

But the Moon Goddess scoffed and said:

"You guys are ruthless. You're going to kill this kid. In this soul state, I wonder if he'll skin you alive once he finds out."

But the tree spirit displayed a resolute attitude and said:

"We had no choice, and neither did he. Whether he wanted to tear us to pieces or extract our souls, it was all something we owed him."

But we had no choice; it was him, and it could only be him.

Upon hearing this, the Moon Goddess's sneer vanished. She knew perfectly well what the Tree Spirits and the others were doing; to Chen Cheng, they were nothing short of heinous scoundrels.

But for their world as a whole, what they did was undoubtedly the right thing to do.

Just as Chen Cheng understands social change, change will always bring growing pains, only the groups affected by these growing pains are different.

Chen Cheng happened to be the one chosen.

"Aren't you afraid that once he understands the truth, his Daoist heart will be shattered, he will fall completely into the demonic path, and in the end he will not act according to your plan?"

"The one who will destroy your world and civilization will likely be none other than the savior you yourselves have chosen."

However, the tree spirit was now weeping uncontrollably. He clenched his fists tightly, looked at the moon goddess with the most twisted and vicious eyes, and roared in anguish:

"But this is not what we wanted to do, nor is it what he wanted to choose. It is you who imposed all of this on us and on him."

If it weren't for you damned, self-proclaimed supreme gods, why would we have carried out such a plan?

Ji Weiming, Jiang Qing, Du Tao, Zhang Tao, Ilya, Mosoni, and all of human civilization—their beliefs fueled the plan within me.

The Moon Goddess did not get angry at this moment. She was like a mother listening to her child's cries, showing unprecedented tenderness and love. She reached out and stroked the tree spirit's face, calming his soul.

“We do not ask for your understanding or that of your civilization. We will remember and listen to the suffering you have endured. We have simply been here, saved, and destroyed.”

At this moment, the moon goddess seemed like a pilgrim, chanting in an extremely sacred tone.

The tree spirit wiped away its tears and said in a hoarse, aged voice:

"I apologize to Heavenly Venerable, I have been rude, but I still beg Heavenly Venerable to take action."

The Moon Goddess sighed, and then spoke:

"There's no need to worry about him. The good deeds you did back then have yielded good results. He'll be fine now."

If he is truly worried, I can take measures to protect him for the time being.

With a flick of her fingertip, the Moon Goddess sent a wisp of starlight vanishing into the void.

Immediately, the moon goddess's figure became even more ethereal than before.

"Her power is dwindling, and I will no longer give her any more power to sustain her. If you are not finished by the time she dissipates, then the Divine Court's guide will arrive."

At that time, I only hope that what you need is salvation, not destruction.

As the Moon Goddess fell, the Moon Celestial Venerable's consciousness completely left the Moon Goddess's body.

The tree spirit helped the moon goddess up, her eyes filled with apology, and said:

"sorry."

The moon goddess paused for a moment, and a touch of color returned to her somewhat ethereal, pretty face.

"It's alright, it's not your fault. Besides, she just completely cut off contact with me. Now I am an independent deity."

Although she was very weak, she could still hear the joy in the moon goddess's voice.

"By the way, the God of Light has run into trouble this time. This matter must be investigated thoroughly. If it was a loophole you left behind, we must find a way to fix it. We absolutely cannot allow a situation like today to happen again."

The Moon Goddess's voice grew weaker and weaker, and after she finished speaking, she fell into a deep sleep.

The tree spirit knew that the moon goddess's power had been greatly depleted and was no longer sufficient to support her walking outside.

He, too, could feel his own exhaustion.

He then led the Moon Goddess back to the divine realm in the void where the World Tree was located.

After the two left, it was an unknown amount of time before the God of Light awoke.

It still had the appearance of a mosaic, but at this time, the God of Light also realized that there was something wrong with himself.

"Damn it, when did this problem even appear?"

Then the God of Light made a gesture towards the illusion and said:

"Open the work log and start system check."

Immediately, streams of data passed through the body of the God of Light, and a screen projection showing the system detection appeared in front of him.

The final result displayed on the projection was perfect.
