Death God: A High-Dimensional Overlord, Starting by Devouring the Soul King

Chapter 44 Izanagi and Izanami

The Spirit King in the picture is completely different from the mangled body that was sealed in the crystal coffin not long ago.

At this moment, He is complete and powerful, born amidst the expectations and prayers of all people, and catalyzed as if by the world itself.

Holding a bow of light, He purified and destroyed the rampant void piece by piece, His movements fluid and holy, like a savior.

Then, he finally faced off against the White King.

That enormous dragon-shaped void, which occupied a third of the mural's area and was composed of bones and shadows, seemed to be the embodiment of the madness and death that remained in this "Pale Age".

The Spirit King and the White King fought a great battle, from the heavens to the earth. After nine days and nine nights, the White King was defeated.

He was dragged from his throne by the Spirit King and chained to a towering bronze pillar, which was then buried deep in the icy sea.

The Spirit King altered the ocean currents at the poles, turning that sea area into a frigid one. This sea area remained frozen for countless years, and to prevent anyone from releasing it, the Spirit King created a seal on the ice.

Judging from the mural, it looks as if a deity from the heavens drew a giant cross on the ice.

The monk couldn't help but rub his chin with his palm.

Is there such a thing?

To be honest, although the monk himself was from that era, King Ling had already been famous for a long time when he was born.

So I don't really know much about the past history.

Perhaps... those five noble ancestors would know something?

Judging from the murals, the White King was quite powerful at its peak, but after the Spirit King sealed it away, he destroyed all information about its existence.

If that's the case, then it's indeed very difficult for later generations to know about this.

So, before the later dark monsters, the Soul King had fought against a White King.

The dark monster was the most powerful Hollow that the monk knew Adnes had ever fought.

Without the Soul King, the souls of this world would slowly be devoured by the Hollows, and the Hollows would then nurture an incomparably enormous Hollow within themselves.

This enormous void would devour all souls except its own, which would be tantamount to the destruction of the world.

It seems that the Spirit King was born into this world precisely to resist such a thing from happening.

That dark monster was the most likely to become such a 'Devouring Void', but it was defeated by the Spirit King before it could complete its transformation.

And this White King is an ancient Hollow who is even closer to achieving the goal of "Devouring the World Hollow" than that dark monster!

At its peak, it occupied one-third of the world's territory!

If it continues to devour, the consequences will be unimaginable!

The monk lowered his hand, took a step forward, and continued looking as if to get a clearer view.

This mural seems to have been created to praise the White King, but here the White King has already been defeated by the Spirit King, so what will happen next?

The monk couldn't help but develop a strong interest in what would happen next.

The mural is quite long, and the content after the White King was sealed by the Spirit King also came into the monk's view.

He saw that the mural still depicted the White King's sealed land, with the enormous, menacing cross appearing on the surface of the world.

I don't know how much time has passed, but it must have been an extremely long period of time.

A person appeared on this huge mural!

Compared to the entire execution and sealing ground, that human was of course quite insignificant; he was like an ant within that enormous cross.

But in that mural, this person is the center.

The man arrived at the center of the cross and made a deal with the sealed White King.

At this point, the White King's power had been weakened to its limit by the Spirit King's power. In order to leave this place, he did not hesitate to make a deal with the commoners he regarded as lowly.

The specific details of the transaction are unclear, but in any case, the White King gave his "bones and blood" to that human.

The bone represents the "sacred remains," which are part of the White King's own remains.

Blood represents the bloodline of the White King. Although it is a huge spirit, it seems to have allowed the man to obtain a part of the power that originally belonged to the White King through bloodline modification!

Once this human, modified by the White King, is combined with the Holy Remains, it will become the 'Holy Infant'!

Clearly, the White King only intended to use it as a vessel for his resurrection.

Once a man unites with the holy remains, the White King will be resurrected from his body.

However, the man was also clever; he did not merge with the sacred remains, but instead sealed them away.

Having gained super power, he became the main character in subsequent murals for a period of time, and was worshipped by many. He was called Izanagi, and the sacred remains were called Izanami.

But the transaction had to be completed sooner or later.

In Izanagi's later years, whether it was time to fulfill his pact with the White King, or he wanted to use the White King's power to prolong his life, or he was bewitched by the White King's power, he went to the deep well that sealed Izanami, the sacred remains.

He removed the sacred remains and united them, and the Holy Infant was born.

Although the Holy Infant still did not possess the full power of the White King, it was still formidable. Upon realizing this, Izanagi's child immediately stopped him.

His three children also inherited the power he received from the White King, and with the combined efforts of the three, the fusion of Izanagi and the Holy Relic was stopped.

Izanagi died, and his remains were once again sealed away by the three siblings.

With this, the mural finally comes to an end.

However, this is not the complete content of the mural; there should be more later, but the later murals were taken away.

The subsequent cliff face showed signs of damage, indicating that someone had violently destroyed it, taking away what lay behind it, or perhaps not wanting future visitors to see what was on top.

The monk fell into deep thought.

actually……

Such a thing really happened?

He was also deeply shocked. He had always considered himself wise, and believed that the myriad aspects of the Soul Society were closely related to him. He also considered himself a guardian of history.

But little did he know that before his birth, the world had such a magnificent history.

and……

Where are those relics now?

Where are the warriors who inherited the blood of the White King?

What kind of place is this world?

Who recorded this mural?

and many more……

He suddenly looked up at the countless doors in the sky...

A terrible thought suddenly arose in his mind.

The various ancient gods and demons sealed away by the original omniscient and omnipotent god...

Could it be that it's sealed inside these doors?!
