Soren slightly squinted his eyes.
If Gloria were here, she would definitely be able to guess that Soren was deep in thought and somewhat tempted.
However, Soren could never fully trust the foreign deity before him, not only because of her outsider identity but also because her divine profession involved d*ath and magic, which conflicted with Soren’s existence.
Soren thought for a while.
Then he slowly raised his head and said, “Your proposal is quite interesting. However, I’m sorry, but I’m not prepared to cooperate with you. Moreover, for a newly ascended deity, recklessly challenging the King of the Dead is not a wise decision.”
The Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices’ expression gradually solidified.
She had imagined various demands that Soren might propose, but did not expect him to refuse outright, and could not help but say in a deep voice, “Why?”
“Is it just because I am a foreign deity?”
Soren shook his head and said, “No. It is because I cannot fully trust you. And trust is the foundation of all cooperation. Moreover, given the current situation, now is not the time to confront the King of the Dead. Even Naraku has been preparing for so long and hasn’t been able to k*ll him, so it’s easy to imagine that completely replacing him won’t be easy.”
The Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices was surprised, “You know all this?”
Soren smiled and remained silent: “The gods do not know nothing about this! Unlike your world, this world has already experienced a cataclysm, with examples of the fall of the Three d*ath Deities in the past, so the gods can remain still.”
The Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices fell silent, but she was not ready to give up and said, “What will it take for you to believe me?”
Soren pondered for a moment and said, “Tell me your true purpose for coming here.”
The Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices fell silent.
Her expression was hesitant, but then she shook her head and said, “I’m sorry. I cannot say anything, as revealing any related meanings would raise the other party’s suspicion. I can only say that I came to this world seeking an opportunity to advance to strong divine power, which has almost no conflict of interest with you, and I can help you achieve strong divine power in this world.”
“You are a very promising new god.”
“But the Saint’s Cataclysm is only the beginning. As this cataclysm ends, the powers of the gods will be reshuffled. At that time, you will not only face the deities of this world.”
“The Pantheon is a greater challenge!”
“If you don’t have enough strength, even deities will encounter all kinds of troubles. Do you think the Orc Pantheon can enter this world for no reason? It is because the native deities’ power is not strong enough, and this world has been carved up by the Orc Pantheon.”
At this point, the Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices looked deeply at Soren, then disappeared into the sea.
Soren fell into deep thought after hearing her words.
Because this plane has been spreading for too long, many people see the Orc Pantheon as local deities, but in fact, they are outsiders, deities who entered the Material Plane after the Battle of the Orc Gate. Besides them, there are also the Mohan Pantheon, the Desert Pantheon, and the Dinosaur Pantheon. Not all pantheons can establish themselves in the Material Plane; some have gradually disappeared from history. The Pantheon is truly a grand stage. After the Saint’s Cataclysm ends, Soren not only needs to return to the Divine Kingdom, but also to occupy a seat within the Pantheon. The Saint’s Cataclysm has reshuffled the powers of the gods, and the struggle for the Material World may lead to a new conflict among the pantheons.
She was right; Soren indeed needed strong divine power to secure his position.
“Not even a name can be mentioned.”
Soren’s figure returned to Modo, murmuring, “It seems that the Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices’ goal is likely a strong divine power!”
Strong divine power can already obtain a high status and control in a plane.
If the Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices’ intentions are related to strong divine power, then the difficulty will become astonishing! According to Soren’s speculation, this goal is most likely linked to the Goddess of Magic and d*ath – Vices and very likely to be a deity above her!
“Foreign deity.”
Soren pondered, murmuring, “When will I also visit other Material Planes? Arriving as a foreign deity, if I can win, I’ll fight; if I can’t, I’ll run. Anyway, I have no ties and don’t need to worry about the consequences. Could they really chase me to this Material Plane to fight me?”
Why does Naraku act so fearlessly?
Isn’t it because the God of d*ath Naraku is also a foreign deity? This Material Plane is merely one of his strongholds.
The God of d*ath Naraku madly unleashing the Plague of the Undead is because his core belief is in another world. Even if he offends a host of deities, as long as he does not fall himself, he can simply return to his original world and start anew.
It’s like the war between two countries.
One species fights in its own territory, while the other fights in someone else’s. Completely different concepts.
Soren is increasingly cautious in his actions and cannot recklessly hunt deities like in the past. Why? Isn’t it because of Modo, the roots of the Southern Coast, a large number of mortal believers, and many who serve and follow him? Soren cannot completely ignore these people; if he acts too recklessly, his enemies can’t defeat him but will take out their frustrations on these people.
However, if it’s in other Material Planes, then he truly has no concerns at all.

Bottomless Abyss. Third Layer. Land of Forgotten.
The Gurenba Arena’s military camp has been expanded more than three times, and there are significantly more evil spirits lurking here than in the past.
On the wide granite-paved roads, Night Witches were driving one batch after another of Abyss Worms forward. These terrifying and hideous worms that have human faces were captured by them from the wilderness, ready to sell to the demon merchants of the Gurenba Arena.
Buildings rose up from the ground!
Demon Goblins were driving Frenzied Combat Demons to transport incredibly heavy stones; the buildings here are basically over ten meters high, as demons are already remarkably tall.
Some Infernal Worms mixed in. As the Gurenba Arena’s fame has grown, many Ygoroth demons who smelled opportunities came, and not only the worms from other planes but even souls from the Hell of Bartok were smuggled here.
The most popular goods here are souls, weapons, and gems.
There are legends that the lord Soren is just like a giant dragon, very fond of collecting various gems and peculiar stones, and it’s said these items are all kept in his treasury.
The Gurenba Arena sells a large number of weapons, with quality much better than demons and prices cheaper than devils. Evil spirit merchants and demon merchants exchange the souls and gems they bring for these weapons, which they then resell to other places in the Bottomless Abyss. The third layer is an excellent transit station, distanced from the site of the Abyssal bl**d War, with the River of Underworld leading to lower layers.
Now, this town ruled by demons is exuding a different kind of prosperous atmosphere!
At this moment,
At the deepest part of the Gurenba Arena, a tall shadow arrived at the back of the military camp’s lava pool.
“Master!”
Rows of demons burning with fierce flames knelt before the Balroth Fire Demon [Leader] – Soren.
These are demons he has cultivated; initially just some Fire Demons, but with the wars of the Kingdom of Fear, a portion of the Fire Demons began to advance, and when the new Fire Demons appear, it meant Soren’s plan succeeded.
Balroth Fire Demon [Leader]!
The title of leader not only represents Soren’s strength and his own combat power template. It also represents Soren’s ability to create Balroth Fire Demons. If it weren’t for the Fire Demons he cultivated advancing into Fire Demons, he would not easily obtain leader-level strength.
This is a feedback ability of the plane!
Balroth Fire Demons are one of the closest types to the initial demons and have always been among the powerful demons just below the lord.
The demons outside are cannon fodder.
What Soren truly needs for the future to roam freely in the Bottomless Abyss and aid his body in the war for the Divine Kingdom are these even more powerful Balroth Fire Demons!
One by one, Fire Demons rose from the magma pool.
Soren used his own bl**d as a medium to awaken many souls, of which nearly half of the souls ultimately distorted and died, while the remaining half of the quality souls with potential were transformed into Fire Demons.
Currently, Soren has a total of one hundred and twenty-seven Fire Demon servants.
The war of the Kingdom of Fear produced five Fire Demons and a portion of Fire Demon elites, and now, after becoming the Balroth Fire Demon leader, Soren’s task is to continue expanding the Fire Demon ranks and train more Fire Demon armies from among them.
“The leader of the Burning Legion – Archimonde salutes you! My master!”
Along with the waves of lava, a Fire Demon around five meters tall walked out from within, kneeling on one knee towards Soren: “More of our kind are being transformed! Those dissipated souls are becoming nutrients. It is estimated that a month later, new Fire Demons will be born!”
Transforming Fire Demons not only requires a large number of souls but also an active volcano.
What Soren is currently accumulating is numbers, as the focus of the Demon Hunter has shifted to the Divine Kingdom. To cultivate new combat power, he intends to directly raise a legion of Fire Demons.
Just relying on this amount of souls is still not enough.
The growth of a Fire Demon requires a lot of energy, and the entire Bottomless Abyss has only one place that can provide such energy!
That is the [Abyssal bl**d War]!
Now, the intensity of the bl**d War has decreased significantly, and Soren is now waiting for an opportunity, a suitable opportunity to launch a bl**d War. As long as he wins, he can directly cultivate a batch of Fire Demons.
——”Let the flames purify everything!”
As the leader of the Balroth Fire Demons, Soren eagerly anticipates the arrival of his Fire Demon Legion.
