Chapter 569: Adam: You, From the Future!

Chapter 569: Adam: You, From the Future!

The dispersal of the Phoenix and the Divine Kingdom indeed shocked Hastur, who hadn't noticed anything amiss.

Unexpectedly, Adam had already envisioned a Divine Kingdom here waiting for him. This tactic was undeniably clever.

A visionary, and one sent up by himself, made Hastur feel a bit regretful upon reflection.

At that time, he decided to trade the extraordinary trait from 008 to Adam to prevent Adam and Amon from disturbing his daily life. He had also tacitly approved of Adam becoming a god.

"Hoisted by my own petard," Hastur sneered, then looked at the High-Dimensional Overseer . "Why didn't the steam kill you just now?"

He tried to use his distance-nullifying ability again but found that the surrounding space seemed to be locked by the High-Dimensional Overseer . He couldn't traverse time and space this way, which must be why Adam brought the High-Dimensional Overseer along.

"It was just a trick. I knew you were always observing my every move through your authority, so I chose to fake my death to confuse you," the High-Dimensional Overseer patiently explained.

"So, your hostility towards the Lord of Storms was also fake?"

"More or less. One needs a clear stance to gain trust."

"You've been pretending since your birth?"

"The stars watch over everything," the High-Dimensional Overseer sighed. "That's why I chose to cooperate with Adam. Our authorities have a hierarchical relationship, which no Outer God would tolerate."

Hastur chuckled lightly, "Since you chose Adam as an ally, do you know his true origin?"

The High-Dimensional Overseer 's expression turned slightly serious. "Are you trying to sow discord?"

"Won't you stop me from revealing your secret?" Hastur looked at Adam.

"I'm more curious about your unwavering confidence at this moment."

"You can guess slowly." Hastur turned to the High-Dimensional Overseer , "I once said that God and Mystery are awakening. You're lucky to have encountered one so soon."

"You are God!" The High-Dimensional Overseer 's eyes flashed with shock. He had only sensed secrets in Adam and Amon.

He suspected Adam to be a backup plan left by the ancient Sun God, but he didn't expect it to be related to God!

Adam had already become a god. It was only a matter of time before he became God.

"Not entirely correct," Adam remained calm. "He indeed wants to resurrect within me and caused my fall, making me start over, but I am not Him."

The High-Dimensional Overseer was silent for a moment, then laughed self-deprecatingly, "It seems I still have much to learn about schemes and conspiracies from you all."

"Unfortunately, you probably won't get another chance." Hastur sneered at the High-Dimensional Overseer . Adam had admitted his identity, and this avatar of the High-Dimensional Overseer couldn't possibly survive to bring the news back to the stars.

"Stars, I really want to see your final outcome, but I must exit this game first."

The High-Dimensional Overseer left this last sentence before Adam erased his existence, his body turning into light particles and scattering in all directions.

Adam reassembled these light particles and extinguished them one by one to prevent the High-Dimensional Overseer 's avatar from reviving.

Hastur's eyes flickered as he tried to use his distance-nullifying ability again. This time, he successfully traversed space but remained trapped in the false Divine Kingdom Adam had envisioned, with limited range.

His connection with the Hall of Stars was also severed.

It wasn't that simple... Hastur sighed, "Adam, you are indeed not a suitable partner."

"My deal with Him is complete," Adam said calmly.

"Tsk, He must regret choosing you as an ally," Hastur laughed lightly. "This is the fate of a traitor."

"You don't seem nervous at all," Adam's eyes were brighter than usual, as if trying to see through Hastur.

"Adam, do you really not care how I might retaliate against this world if I escape?" Hastur's tone was somewhat strange.

"Even if you escape from me, you still won't summon the Outer Gods because you can't control the situation," Adam answered seriously. "Human weakness has already sealed your fate."

"Fine, then kill me," Hastur spread his hands, looking indifferent.

Adam said nothing, just calmly watched Hastur. "I'm not that foolish."

"So, you plan to imprison me forever?"

"That's an option."

"Neither killing nor releasing," Hastur sneered and thought of something crucial, "because you don't understand the extraordinary abilities of the Star Pathway, nor the close connection between the Hall of Stars and me."

"Your true form is enough," Adam's expression remained unchanged. "As long as you can't continue to ascend, you pose no threat to me."

Hastur was silent for a moment, then smiled, "A prolonged imprisonment, aren't you afraid of unforeseen changes?"

Adam didn't answer directly but looked into the depths of the spirit world. He sensed the everNight Goddess's presence, indicating she had begun confronting the newly born God of Death.

"Let's see."

Adam extended a finger towards Hastur, and an identical figure, both in appearance and aura, appeared beside Hastur.

They were like two peas in a pod, indistinguishable from each other.

"Is this the envisioned me?" Hastur curiously looked at the fake version of himself.

"Master of Chaos and Order."

"Origin of all rules in the starry sky."

"Guiding all things to zero reset."

"Star Repositioner!"

Adam made the envisioned Hastur devoutly pray to the stars.

After a brief silence, a thunderbolt struck down, accurately hitting the fake Hastur and turning him to ashes.

At that moment, Adam's eyes lit up, and he instantly disappeared, moving to the location where the Hall of Stars had just manifested divine power, trying to use his authority to find the Hall of Stars.

But the Hall of Stars wasn't in this region, or it didn't exist in the real world. It must be an illusory existence.

Only the right person could touch reality from the illusion.

Adam reached out to summon Hastur, who was imprisoned in the Divine Kingdom, but there was no response.

He envisioned a new Hastur again, making him pray to the stars. This time, another thunderbolt struck from a deeper place, beyond the real world, in the starry sky. But the Hall of Stars couldn't exist in the starry sky.

This meant the two thunderbolts from the Hall of Stars weren't automatic responses but were controlled by someone.

Hastur had an avatar with consciousness hidden in the Hall of Stars, which is why he wasn't afraid of death.

"Not a bad trick," Adam nodded. "Is this your last resort?"

"Hah," Hastur didn't answer, instead watching Adam's next move with interest.

"Do you know why I chose the visionary path this time?" Adam resumed his enigmatic demeanor.

"Haha, that's a tough question. Why? I must think carefully and can't answer wrong," Hastur sneered. "Could it be that by using the visionary as a foundation, without reclaiming the authorities and extraordinary traits of the Lord of Storms, Eternal Blazing Sun, and God of Knowledge and Wisdom, you can temporarily envision the corresponding uniqueness and extraordinary traits, giving you half the power of an Outer God?"

Adam remained steady, unfazed by Hastur guessing his thoughts.

"Did I guess right?"

"I'm a genius."

"No, it means you're too stupid to let me guess so easily."

Hastur's deliberate mockery didn't affect Adam. He looked deeply at Hastur, "I think I know your origin. You, from the future."

Choosing the visionary path was his latest extraordinary pathway theory, never shared with anyone.

Hastur couldn't have known, but he did.

There was only one possibility: he came from the future, having seen his own future!

"Can anyone freely traverse time, going back and forth between the past and future?" Hastur asked curiously. "Do you know what a time paradox is?"

"I think finding the Hall of Stars will answer that."

At that moment, a torrent of furious wisdom descended from the stars!

It was the God of Knowledge and Wisdom delivering divine punishment through the Divine Kingdom!

"See, delays lead to changes," Hastur seemed in a good mood.

The God of Knowledge and Wisdom's intervention was within Hastur's expectations. This god had always sided with the stars, especially when Adam and the stars stood on opposite sides. His stance would be particularly firm.
