" Night Demons ?" Zhou Yi paused for a moment, confronted by these creatures Lilith had created. Then, turning to Lilith, he asked , "What kind of power have you bestowed upon them?"
"I have granted them the ability to walk in the dark. As long as darkness falls, they can pass through it freely. Wherever they may be, they can enter directly into any darkness they desire from this Hell ."
Lilith smiled triumphantly. Everything before them could be seen as part of her plan.
"Like the prophet we discussed, they will be the Soul- Harvesting Demons you spoke of . They will strike fear into countless sinful people. And only fear can make mortals remember your glory. The combination of grace and power—that is the attitude a supreme god should possess."
Zhou Yi looked at the Night Demons , who were still a little dazed from being newly born in the Red Sea , shook his head, and asked:
" These are the Soul -Harvesting Demons I was talking about , but what about my Messenger? Since you asked me to say this at the time, can I assume you have a solution?"
"Of course, I'm always prepared!" Lilith smiled enchantingly and took Zhou Yi's hand. Countless Angelic Spirits gathered together, forming a radiant halo around their clasped hands.
"I can create my subjects with divine power, and so can you. A god with authority over life can easily give life to things with spirituality. And angelic spirits are inherently the most spiritual spirits . You only need to imbue them with your power, and a living form emerges. And that is our domain !"
While Lilith was speaking , she guided Zhou Yi to use his divine power. Zhou Yi now possessed six powers.
Among these, authority over the Divine Fire was the power manifested by the Solar Divine Fire . As the Incarnation of the Sun, the first spark of the Fire in countless myths , this authority gave it the power to control the flames and create the destructive Solar Divine Fire .
Then he had authority over Light. This gave him the power to control Light. Every kind of light emitted by the Sun could be manipulated and controlled by him . All Light on Earth could be considered his subjects and subject to his rule.
And then there was the authority over the Force. This was a manifestation of his powerful Physical Body and the complete mystification of powers like gravity control. In essence, it gave him the ability to possess greater power. This authority also bestowed upon him certain special power attributes. For example, he could add a mysterious destructive power attribute to all attacks of his allies, or bestow a specific power attribute upon the Physical Bodies of others.
Of course, this grace was not limitless. It had certain conditions for both the giver and the receiver.
After power came authority over the Void Realm . This was something learned from the Demon King: the control and use of space. Of course, once authority was acquired, this power naturally underwent a massive transformation. Dismantling, traversing, overlapping, building, and all sorts of other changes were possible in the Void Realm .
Then there was the power over Time. This power was very special. Even after being upgraded, Zhou Yi only gained the power to stop space-time. And this stopping was only relative. Rather than stopping, it was more like looking at and interfering with the River of Time through a special method. Nevertheless, it can be said that such an ability is incredibly powerful and dangerous.
Even Zhou Yi wouldn't want to misuse such an ability if it were possible.
Ultimately, only one authority remained: Life, as Lilith had spoken . In the past, she had called it Grace. But as she summarized its True Name, the shell peeled back, revealing its most fundamental manifestation: Life.
His authority over life made him like the sun that never sets . Even if he faced death , he would return to the world from the realm of the dead . At the same time, this authority could revive everything, heal the sick, rejuvenate the wounded, rejuvenate the old, and grant the privileged the blessing of eternal life. Moreover, giving life to the lifeless and bringing the dead back to the world was not impossible .
Of course, reaching this final stage came at a price. What that price was required a meeting with the god who controlled Death .
What Lilith wanted was for Zhou Yi to use this power. He was to create new life using these spirits .
Without souls , even a god would find this difficult. But with souls , it was an easy task for a god who had authority over Life.
Under the guidance of an experienced goddess like Lilith , Zhou Yi quickly grasped the trick. Using the authority of power, he separated the divine nature of Light and Life and integrated them into these newly created lives.
And when all the conditions were met, these ancient angels began to appear in this world in a completely new form .
Like the Night Demons , this newly formed group of beings consisted of handsome men and women. However, compared to the feminine and alluring Night Demons , this group of beings appeared more radiant and noble. Both men and women were tall and had very healthy and muscular bodies.
Like the Night Demons , they possessed a pair of enormous wings. However, unlike the Night Demons' jet-black wings, these individuals' wings were golden and shimmered like the sun . At first glance, they evoked a sense of nobility and prestige.
Lilith not only bestowed amazing abilities upon the Night Demons , but she also gave them something more. The divine Life Essence they carried could also enable them to help mortal humans escape suffering and gain a new life .
This was their fundamental role as Messengers. With this power, they could be qualified Messengers of a god, even if they lacked combat skills. Moreover, how could those endowed with Zhou Yi's divine Light essence possibly lack combat skills?
Therefore, they were qualified in every respect.
"From now on, you are the Messengers of Light, my heralds in the human world ! "
All the born Light Messengers who obeyed Zhou Yi's command bowed to him respectfully. Zhou Yi was not a boring person who created emotionless machines like Jehovah . In this respect , he and Lilith were the same; neither of them had restricted the emotions of their creations.
So, even though their emotional capacity was completely devoid of thought, these Light Messengers still showed their creator, Zhou Yi, the respect he deserved. And this respect was something the Night Demons lacked.
Lilith looked at the gleaming Messengers with a touch of envy and sighed at Zhou Yi.
"What beautiful works. I can sense they are more powerful than the Night Demons , or even the original Angels . You have great talent in this field."
Hearing Lilith's praise , Zhou Yi looked at the Light Messengers before him, a look of satisfaction appearing in his eyes. Being able to create such creatures on his first attempt was truly a pleasant surprise. Since Lilith had given him such a surprise, shouldn't she give him back something in return?
He thought for a moment and then extended his hand.
Instantly, ripples from the Void Realm spread from his palm, reaching his feet and connecting with the Red Sea beneath him .
This event instantly shocked Lilith . Before she could even utter a sound, rumbling tremors spread from beneath the sea. Then, slowly, an island emerged from the ocean, gradually expanding to become a continent, a new world .
This place was once half of Heaven, known as the brightest and most sacred place. But when the war between Jehovah and the Bright King ended, Heaven was completely divided in two. And half of it fell into Zhou Yi's hands.
However, the half of Heaven that Zhou Yi possessed was actually a rather dilapidated dimension. It was riddled with holes from the effects of the great war, and it was impossible to even estimate how long it would take to repair. Therefore, for Zhou Yi, it was like a tasteless chicken rib that was too small to throw away. It was practically useless in his possession, but completely abandoning it would be truly heartbreaking. In short, it was a very strange situation.
But after Lilith pulled such a surprise on him, Zhou Yi made his decision. Since he was of no use to her, he could benefit Lilith and completely integrate her into his Hell .
Zhou Yi thought this and acted accordingly. His decisive action caused the entire Earth to tremble with thunderous tremors. This meant the Earth was undergoing earth-shattering changes. The integration of half of Heaven could be considered to have nearly doubled the size of Earth .
The power of Heaven intervened in Hell . While it interfered with the purity of Lilith's power , it also allowed some new powers to enter her divine nature. This was certainly not a bad thing for her. It could even be an opportunity. Faced with such an opportunity , Lilith would not refuse it.
Thus, the new world quickly stabilized. A massive landmass also appeared in the sky above Lilith's Red Sea Hell .
It was a vast continent, but utterly desolate. Everywhere there were dried-up riverbeds, ruined houses, withered forests and pastures. A heavy darkness enveloped everything, making it as silent as a resting place for the dead.
This was a result of the struggle between Jehovah and the Shining King , and now Zhou Yi's task was to reverse it all.
Looking toward the vast expanse of land, Zhou Yi pointed towards the Void Realm , and instantly a massive golden halo appeared above it. Infinite Light enveloped the golden halo, holding it aloft like a sun , endlessly radiating its brilliant rays.
This light dispelled the dense darkness across the continent, illuminating the entire sky once again. At the same time, it completely revitalized the land of this continent.
Countless plants emerged anew with new life, sprouting green shoots. And in a short time, these shoots began to mature. They rapidly grew, transforming into lush green leaves, dense grass, beautiful flowers, and plump fruit.
Furthermore, new streams emerged from beneath the cracked surface, feeding the dry riverbeds and allowing the Water of Life to flow through these lands once again.
Heaven was reborn, but this reborn Heaven belonged to Lilith . Zhou Yi gave it to Lilith ; this was arguably a grand gesture. So much so that Lilith's gaze towards it was somewhat strange.
This wasn't gratitude; it was more like looking at a fool. However, even Lilith couldn't be sure if he really was a fool! She only knew she'd received a gift hard to refuse.
