Thus, Marvin not only needed to be wary of the monsters in the temple and the possible appearance of the World Ending Twin Snakes, but he also had to guard against the possibility of Yin becoming his enemy!
After all, Yin’s understanding of the Ethereal Plane and the World Ending Twin Snakes was a lot deeper than Marvin’s. If he had schemed up a trap for Marvin, it would be quite a predicament.
Moreover, he still didn’t know where the Azure Matriarch was hiding.
Marvin couldn’t forget that she was still here.
Even if he was many times stronger than the Azure Matriarch right now, he tried to never underestimate his enemies.
Especially when the other side was hidden in the dark.
‘Adapt based on the situation.’
‘…I hope Wayne wakes up soon.’
Marvin took the time to check on Wayne, who was still in the Origami, sleeping peacefully.
Given Wayne’s powerful arcane abilities, he could definitely be of great help to Marvin.
But who knew when he would wake up.
…
As the two continued down the path, the number of monsters gathering behind them had already reached double digits!
Even Yin couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s quite rare for a group of monsters like this to restrain their craving for slaughter.”
“Seems like they were patiently waiting for this to happen.”
Marvin glanced back and lightly asked, “When we reach that place and get the items from the Twin Snakes’ seal, what about them?”
“No idea.” Yin shook his head, a strange expression in his eyes. “It’s rumored that no person can resist the temptation of a Fate Tablet.”
“But you said that you have no interest in the Fate Tablet,” Marvin reminded him.
Yin laughed out loud, “I’m not just a person.”
‘As if I could believe you,’ Marvin thought to himself.
At this point, a fairly open area spread in front of them.
It looked like a wide open hall, and at the end of the hall was a dark hallway.
Marvin could feel something hidden in the shadows of that hallway.
At this time, the monsters behind them stopped and didn’t go any further.
They just stood in place and stared coldly at Marvin and Yin.
Marvin understood.
‘Go in.’

Inextinguishable Wizard Flames were lighting the hall, and a sealing power shrouded the area.
It was that power which was restricting the monsters, forcing them to stay outside this area, unable to approach.
Marvin and Yin walked into the hall. When Marvin glanced back, he saw something unexpected.
The Azure Matriarch was behind them.
She was standing on the back of the spider, looking at Marvin indifferently.
It was as if she were looking at a dead person.
This expression made Marvin feel very uneasy. He very much wanted to turn back and get rid of that woman.
But reason told him that this wasn’t a good idea.
Those monsters seemed to be on the same side as the Azure Matriarch, and the possibility of Yin becoming hostile was already enough to give Marvin a headache.
If he went to attack the Azure Matriarch, who knew whether or not Yin would just take the Fate Tablet and escape on his own?
Since it had come to this, Marvin could only follow Yin and continue onward!
…
They stepped into a spacious hall, and there were no longer any monsters staring at them from behind.
But the runes and the sealing power shrouding the place made them more cautious.
If they accidentally came into contact with the sealing power, who knew what could happen!
There was a fountain in the center of the hall, and in the middle of the fountain, there was a statue of a male and a female hugging each other.
But the fountain had already been abandoned for a very long time, and the water inside had long since dried up.
As for that statue in the center, it seemed to have many cracks.
Marvin looked at that statue and thought that it seemed to be a bit familiar.
From the perspective of Human esthetics, those two were definitely attractive and beautiful, perhaps even somewhat overly beautiful.
Their faces were filled with an aura of peace.
They looked like a pair of sweethearts in love as they embraced each other.
Who were those two? Why were they in the World Ending Twin Snakes’ temple? What was the story behind it?
Marvin probingly asked Yin.
But the latter responded that he didn’t know.
He hardly seemed concerned about the only structure in the area as he quickly made his way through to the hallway.
Marvin frowned. He felt that this fountain might be hiding something.
Yin’s attitude seemed to support his conjecture.
But Marvin couldn’t stop and waste time observing the statue.
Getting hold of the Fate Tablet was the most important thing for now.
…
Compared to the bright hall, the hallway beyond it was undoubtedly dark.
Every twenty steps or so, there was a small unending flame lighting the path.
Fortunately, Marvin had Darksight.
This hallway wasn’t long, but the two were progressing rather slowly.
Because when Marvin stepped into the hallway, he felt a powerful resistance!
That resistance came from the sealing power that seemed to permeate so much of this temple.
The two glanced at each other and saw that they both had been surprised.
The resistance was getting stronger as they got closer to the seal.
At the same time, it also meant that they were getting closer to the things that they wanted to get.
A mere hundred steps through the hallway took them no less than 20 minutes!
This was something unimaginable for two people with such power.
But the resisting force that Marvin and Yin were slogging through made their progress extremely strenuous.
They even felt sweat dripping down their foreheads!
Another reason for going so slowly was that both sides of the hallway were filled with damaged murals.
The murals were eulogizing the World Ending Twin Snakes.
Marvin tried to study them to see if they held any secrets that might show how to handle the Twin Snakes, but he failed.
He only saw stories from the perspective of a Twin Snake Cult follower about how Lance sealed away the Twin Snakes as well as about the origin of the Ethereal Plane.
The contents were very simple.
The author of the murals must have been one of the earliest followers of the Twin Snakes Cult. He had been able to become a competent Priest of the Twin Snakes Cult.
Under the blessings of the powerful World Ending Twin Snakes, he had the ability to freely spread disease and panic.
The murals were depicting scenes from when he had been preaching.
Among these, there was no lack of bloody scenes like infants being swallowed alive and people being boiled.
The author of that mural saw those as normal punishments for heathens.
The message of the murals could be summed up to one thing: Anyone who didn’t believe in the World Ending Twin Snakes should disappear.
Marvin had no words to say.
He looked at the image of the World Ending Twin Snakes in the murals.
That fanatical follower drew the World Ending Twin Snakes in an extremely lofty way.
A lot of times, mostly during his sermons, the World Ending Twin Snakes would appear and create miracles.
But even then, they were hiding behind golden clouds and only exposing their malevolent heads, showing their golden tongues.
He looked
at another mural, where the World Ending Twin Snakes spat some mist, and then a rock beside a village of followers turned into gold.
When he saw this scene, Marvin almost wanted to burst out laughing.
It seemed that the dream of turning common things into gold was the same no matter the Universe.
…
After sweeping through the worthless murals, Marvin’s mood didn’t get any better.
He didn’t gain any interesting information from looking through all of them.
The only thing that surprised him was that he saw the male and female from the fountain again in one of the murals.
Unfortunately, due to the mural being damaged, he didn’t get many details from it.
‘That couple should also have a significant story,’ Marvin thought.
If the situation had been different, he probably would have looked into their origin.
But now, the Fate Tablet was ahead, so he didn’t dare to lose focus.
They had already reached the end of the hallway, after all!
They were standing in front of a door that had no lock on it.
Marvin and Yin glanced at each other for a moment as they stood ready to enter.
“To be honest, I have no idea what is behind the door,” Yin said in a heavy voice. “I suggest that you get ready to fight.”
There was no need to remind Marvin of this as he had already silently taken out Sodom’s Blades.
The World Ending Twin Snakes themselves might be behind this door. Who knew what kind of bitter fight would ensue then?!
Yin didn’t tarry either, a slender sword appearing in his hands.
This sword’s shape was different from Feinan’s swords. It was much more slender, with a sharp tip… like a large needle.
From Yin’s serious attitude, if this wasn’t an Artifact, it should at least be a Legendary Weapon.
The two then simultaneously took a step forward and gave the door a push!
…
In the depths of the Astral Plane.
That frightening light, which seemed like it could destroy worlds, flashed across and hit that enormous creature.
The latter shook its body around, unwilling to succumb. But it still couldn’t stop the effects of the light, and its whole body became rigid!
The Gods all let out a collective sigh of relief.
Some Gods were very pale, their Divine Power close to drying up completely!
“Finally over!”
Even a God like the God of Dawn and Protection also found it very strenuous to fight an entity able to destroy a Universe by itself, despite having the aid of Lance’s Artifact.
He watched as the corpse of that Astral Beast floated upward in a strange way before it finally spread into Feinan’s sky. He couldn’t help frowning.
And at that time, his gaze unexpectedly fell into the Ethereal Plane.
“Eh? That shrewd and scheming Vampire is also inside?”

Chapter 690: Perfect Fusion

“I didn’t expect that even after sending so many Divine Servants, they would all lose to him.”
The Black Dragon God had an ashen complexion as he looked at what was happening in the Sky Tower, and he couldn’t help shaking his head.
The Queen of Spiders and the Dream God also had dissatisfied expressions on their faces.
In order to compete for the 4th Fate Tablet, the Gods had joined hands to shatter the Universe Magic Pool!
And now, they sent the strongest subordinates that they could get through the residual turbulence, particularly the War God who even made some sacrifices to send his own younger brother. However, not only was the latter not able to contend for the Fate Tablet, but he even lost to Feinan… This was hard for them to accept!
“Marvin must die!”
The War God’s voice was emotionless, but as the Gods saw it, this was equivalent to a death sentence on Marvin.
The War God was one of the three Great Gods, said to be one of the most powerful beings in the Astral Plane.
If not for the fact that the God of Dawn and Protection had better relations with the other Gods, he might have been the one leading them all.
If the War God said that someone absolutely had to die, would that person survive?
The Black Dragon God and his associates were inwardly rejoicing.
It seemed that the War God was taking his anger out on Marvin for the death of the Berserk God.
That Kangen guy who dared to kill the Berserk God wouldn’t live long either.
But the only problem was that although they killed the Astral Beast, the Universe Magic Pool had just shattered, so the Plane and the space around it were in some turmoil.
With their powerful Divine Vessels and great strength, they simply couldn’t go to Feinan.
Otherwise, just some slight incompatibility between the Plane Laws and the Divine Vessels would be enough to cause Feinan to crumble.
What they wanted to do was to rule this world, not destroy it. They could only wait for now!
Waiting for the space around Feinan to restore itself, waiting for this period of fluctuation to be over. And then, no one could stop the Gods from descending.
But although that was the case in theory, the Black Dragon God’s group was still worried.
They had already seen Marvin create so many miracles.
As long as he had time to prepare, he would do things that left others speechless.
The Gods had no good methods to kill him at the moment. Sending a Divine Servant had already proven to be inefficient. Even the three Divine Servants headed by the Dream God’s Divine Servant had been exterminated. And they had already used up the one Artifact that, given the correct circumstances, might be able to do the deed, back when they severely wounded the Great Elven King, Nicholas.
They came to the conclusion that unless a Mid God personally went down, they almost certainly wouldn’t be able to kill the current Marvin.
As for Feinan’s unstable space, it would take at least a month to recover.
And what could Marvin do during that month?
What the Gods were most worried about was the Fate Tablet!
‘If Marvin gets his hands on the 4th Fate Tablet…’
‘Will he ascend to Godhood?’
This was what all Gods were wondering.
Thus, after defeating the invading monster, they didn’t return to the Astral Sea, but instead gathered outside Feinan, paying attention to the development of the situation!
But things didn’t go as they thought they would.
They saw Marvin obtaining the Fate Tablet.
But the most shocking part was…
The space above the Pambo Sea was torn apart, and two large, intertwining snakes fell from the sky!
“Crash!”
The large snakes crashed into the sea, creating a huge hole in the frozen Pambo Sea!
“The World Ending Twin Snakes! Heavens!”
“That Marvin actually released such a monster! His sin is unforgivable!”
Restlessness spread among the Gods.
The World Ending Twin Snakes were no jokes.
And now they actually escaped from the Ethereal Plane.
Who could stop this pair of Ancient Evil Gods in the current Feinan if they still had their past strength?
“Feinan is done for!” one God wailed.
…
Thirty minutes ago.
Marvin and Yin pushed open that door.
The attack that they had been expecting didn’t appear, and the World Ending Twin Snakes didn’t appear either.
The door had opened to reveal a strange room!
This room was endless and mostly covered in darkness, except for a few places with flickering starlight.
The two of them walked around feeling rather curious about their surroundings, when they noticed that the Laws of this room were extremely strange.
They could go forward and backward, but the area they were walking on was non-existent.
Each step they took was like walking in the air.
And those starlights represented treasures!
Most of those starlights were focused in one area, around a shining cube!
“Hehe, here’s the Fate Tablet that you want!” Yin laughed and pointed at that cube.
Marvin had an expression of surprise on his face. He had seen a Fate Tablet before, and it wasn’t like this.
When he noticed Marvin’s disbelieving expression, Yin shrugged. “I’ve no need to trick you. I saw the Fate Tablets back in the 3rd Era. But you must realize, those things weren’t the Fate Tablets themselves!”
‘Fragments!’
Yin’s prompt reminded Marvin of that key word.
The so-called Fate Tablets of the 3rd Era, including Fortune Fairy Ding, were actually just the fragments of three Fate Tablets.
But the 4th Fate Tablet wasn’t divided. It was a whole tablet!
This entire cube was the 4th Fate Tablet!
It seemed like Yin truly didn’t deceive him about this. He really had no interest in the Fate Tablet because he was already heading toward a faint pink light in the distance.
That light was probably the Vampires’ Secret Precepts that he had talked about.
Marvin quickly approached the cube.
Inside the transparent cube, countless Laws and runes were rotating, containing the knowledge and power of the entire Universe!
Marvin gently spread his fingers out as he probed the transparent cube.
Before he could glean any information, his False Divine Vessel suddenly react with a heartbeat!
The instant his finger touched the cube, his fingertip became like a black hole sucking the cube in.
Marvin was shocked by this surreal scene!
Countless lines appeared on his interface!
He didn’t know whether it was due to the Fate Tablet, but Marvin was rendered speechless when he saw this happen!
‘What’s going on?’
‘Is the Fate Tablet in my hands now?’
Marvin almost couldn’t believe that it could be so simple.
After the chaos on his interface subsided, Marvin finally saw the explanations concerning the False Divine Vessel.
Fusion reached 100%!
The False Divine Vessel accomplished its 3rd evolution, becoming complete!
