“Plus, the Beast People Empire had suffered heavily. And as fear and uncertainty gripped the empire, now is the best opportunity to establish our faith among them!”
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
“That’s a good plan. I’ll leave it for you all to settle, don’t disappoint me.”
Meng Lei raised his head slightly and continued. “Once this is settled, it’ll be the time to divide and confer existential planes and create a god system.”
“Yes, Master!”
Everyone was excited at the thought of such a historical moment—they would obtain existential planes and construct a god system!
By then, they would all become gods under Meng Lei’s system, and they would enjoy an endless amount of faith. How great would that be?
“Did anything happen these few days while I was away?” Meng Lei asked.
“Master, everything is fine in Heaven’s Vault Continent,” Puhaman said while he bowed.
The rest nodded slightly too—with so many lesser deities here, it would be difficult for anything troublesome to occur.
However, Thaniel hesitated a while before he said suddenly, “Master, the Dragon God had looked for me!”
“Dragon God?” Meng Lei raised his eyebrows.
“What did he want?”
“He wanted me to destroy the teleportation magic circle in the Far Northern Icelands so he could take over the 48 existential planes that the Dark Demonic Dragon left behind. Still, this isn’t the point!”
Thaniel did not dare to hide anything as he continued.
“The point is, the Dragon God told me that he had already reported Heaven’s Vault Continent’s secret to the Dragon God race!
“He said that it was a secret so lucrative to countless higher deities that the Dragon Gods will definitely send their army down to Heaven’s Vault Continent!
“By then, the entire Heaven’s Vault Continent will be plunged into great misery and suffering. While Master...”
“Heaven’s Vault Continent’s secret?”
“What secret could this continent possibly have?”
“That’s right, Heaven’s Vault Continent is just a low-end material plane. Why would it have any secrets? This bastard Dragon God must be sprouting ridiculous, shocking nonsense!”
“One that interests countless higher deities...”
Everyone shook their head as they scoffed at the idea, but Meng Lei started to frown and slipped into deep thoughts.
Heaven’s Vault Continent’s secret? A secret that interests countless higher deities?”
What secret would that be?
“Dodola, is the secret that the Dragon God spoke of the Tower of Time?” Meng Lei was baffled.
“Other than the Tower of Time, I can’t think of any other possibilities. And of course, we can’t strike out that Gods-Demons Continent, but that secret can never be greater than the Tower of Time!”

It was very hard for low-end existential planes like Heaven’s Vault Continent, where resources were sparse, and laws of nature were indistinct, to possess any kind of astounding secrets most of the time. At best, one might find things like half-deity ruins and so on, but that was about it.
However, even these were of absolutely no value to the high and mighty deities, let alone having a secret that could astound a higher deity. The only thing that Meng Lei could think of was the Tower of Time.
Not only was the God of Time a Great Perfection deity that had comprehended and perfectly assimilated five types of basic laws, but he was even an Ancient God that had comprehended time-based laws of nature.
Despite not in possession of Chief God divine cores, Ancient Gods could nevertheless contend against Chief Gods. What kind of powerful existence must they be, then? And how great and noble must they be?
As for the Tower of Time, as a place that stored the God of Time’s legacy and treasures, its allure to the deities in the Void was self-evident.
By obtaining the Tower of Time, they would obtain the Ancient God, the God of Time’s legacy, his treasures, and even the cultivation method for time-based laws of nature.
How alluring was that?
It was no exaggeration to say that even Chief Gods might be tempted, let alone higher deities!
Meng Lei said, “If that’s really the case, then it’s indeed rather troublesome. Never mind, I’m the master of the existential plane. Any deity can forget about behaving so presumptuously here!”
As the master of the existential plane, he was an absolute and invincible existence while in the existential plane. What was there for him to fear?
“You’re oversimplifying things, Meng Lei.”
Dodola slowly shook its head and said, “I’ve certainly mentioned in the past that deities of the Void are unable to descend upon Heaven’s Vault Continent in most typical cases, but nothing is absolute in this world.”
“Could it be that there are other methods aside from secret arts such as the Angel Gods’ immolation and summoning spell?”
Meng Lei broke into a slight frown. He wasn’t concerned about the angels’ immolation spell. Aside from the fact that the immolation spell required extremely demanding conditions in order to be cast, there was also one other most important factor—how powerful the angel summoned through immolation was strongly linked to how powerful the sacrifice themselves were.
The more powerful the sacrifice was, the more powerful the summoned angel would be.
Even someone as powerful as Pope Hayes, who was a pinnacle-level lesser deity, had only managed to summon Lorenzo, a six-winged angel on par with an intermediate deity, whereas those weaker than the pope would only summon angels even weaker than that.
Yet, it was impossible to find anyone stronger than the pope in Heaven’s Vault Continent.
Besides, considering how demanding the conditions for immolation were, whether or not anyone was willing to do it was
