But he did his best in over a dozen battles.

In these battles, Kru was forced to use shadow abilities and forbidden knowledge.

Both of these abilities are now corrupted for Kru.

Especially taboo knowledge.

With the arrival of daylight, although Kru was 'refreshed' to some extent, there were still traces of pollution on his body.

A few stubborn strands of shadow pollution remain.

However, the pollution of forbidden knowledge has already surfaced in the soul and is spreading continuously.

Although demons are inherently corrupted by original sin, at the level of a demon lord, over time they will inevitably become a sinful soul.

However, Kru was able to roughly judge that although he had become a demon lord, his advancement speed was probably very fast, so that his soul was not too contaminated by original sin.

This time, however, he used forbidden knowledge too many times, causing his soul to become increasingly polluted.

Resetting can only remove some insignificant sins, but the essence of corruption remains.

"We must restrain ourselves from using forbidden knowledge!" Kru took a deep breath.

Becoming a sinful spirit has its advantages; it allows one to gain unique power through sin.

However, sinful souls often have extremely strong drawbacks, which are impossible to remedy and can only lead to continuous decline.

Therefore, it's best not to become a sinful soul if you can avoid it.

"So the means I can use right now are roughly limited to some divine magic, curse magic, and... the power of illusion and fabrication." After sensing for a while, Kru came to a general conclusion.

During the daytime, his strength is roughly equivalent to the maximum value of the Black Stone type.

The available power is limited; all of the Demon Lord's power is solidified deep within his body and cannot be used at all.

Right now, he's just a Black Stone Seed possessing a vast amount of knowledge about curses and forbidden things.

With this power, if Kru could to consolidate the achievements of history, he could only rely on the power of illusion.

At that moment, Klu couldn't help but look at the muddy area not far away.

The rain fell drop by drop, striking the earth.

The soil was constantly shifting under the erosion of the rain, with large amounts of mud splashing and falling back down.

This scene began to change rapidly in Kru's eyes.

Every grain of sand, soil, and even dust becomes a vibrant life.

Those raindrops, however, became terrifying foreign objects carrying forbidden power, bringing natural disasters and destruction.

"Brothers, we must hold the line no matter what!" shouted one of the mud-splattered men, then released a wisp of 'drying power' into the rain, absorbing the excess moisture into his body.

There is also sand and gravel, which drift with the raindrops and then firmly form a defensive line, solidifying the other soil.

This is a war of life and death for a race.

Faced with this war, Kluge could see that the power of the rain was becoming increasingly unstoppable.

The forbidden sins are seeping into the ground with the rainwater, and then heading towards the earth.

During this process, a lot of land was washed away by the rain, and some soil was completely filled by the rain. Then, following the force of the water, it began to flow and became part of the force of the water flow.

"Ahhhhh, for the glory of the earth!" Countless beings belonging to the earth are rapidly unleashing their power to firmly defend the line of defense.

However, in all aspects, rainwater still holds the advantage.

They quickly breached the surface, forming puddles.

Then, the cracks in the ground were washed open by the water, and countless silt and sand voluntarily jumped into the water to fill the cracks and stop the water from further large-scale intrusion.

Although the battle is still raging on the surface, the power of the rain has already penetrated much deeper.

And the soil on the surface, more or less, becomes 'wet' and is thus polluted by rainwater.

Faced with this situation, Kru observed for a while and then quickly made a decision—to help the 'Earth' side.

To obtain the Earth Godhood, this is the politically correct thing he needs to do.

However, as the rain fell, water had already formed, and except for a few slightly higher areas, the rest of the area was even covered by rainwater.

Although the earth is still very deep, no one knows how long this dry soil can hold out.

In this situation, even if you want to help, you need to come up with a good way.

And in the process, new history is created.

Kru had no better idea for the time being, so he could only use magic to create a protective layer to shield the area from the rain.

Chapter 863 But, is that all?

“I don’t have much power of fiction, so I have to use it just right…” Kru plans to use all his power of fiction on helping ‘Earth’, and no longer intends to use other powers to extract abilities from ‘Vision’ as before.

Kru stared at the ground and realized that although he had created a barrier with magic to protect the soil in this area, it was not directly hit by rain.

However, the water in the distance is also flowing this way.

The land that Kru observed was merely the open space to the right of the church.

This place was originally a place for trainee priests to practice magic.

The situation was much better on the other side of this open space, which was the training area for trainee paladins.

Paladin training requires movement and exertion, and since the force originates from the ground, it naturally presses the ground firmly.

Therefore, although the open space was covered with a lot of water, the water did not seep in much.

The situation is different here; priests don't need to exert much effort to practice their spells.

On the contrary, they often miss their spells, and when they land on the ground, they sometimes create a small crater.

Occasionally, these priests would also drain the land's power to create spells like earth spikes, which made the land's power even more uneven.

This explains why so many puddles appeared in such a short period of time.

Because of the constant bombardment with magic, many places here have soft soil.

Within Klu's observation range, it was not considered a good piece of land.

However, at this moment, Kluge had no intention of changing his target. If he wanted to create new history and create miracles, he could not act on stable ground; he had to challenge himself.

After a moment's thought, Kru gradually grasped the key point.

This place has had much of its natural energy drained because the priests practiced their magic.

However, the soil's fertility was not lost; it simply became unbalanced due to the lack of skill in various techniques.

Furthermore, after observing carefully for a while, Kru discovered that there were still some earth energy veins beneath the earth.

"This is... Earth Essence Technique!" Kru immediately realized.

Earth Magic is the signature divine art of the Earth Church.

It's not an attack, nor does it have any defensive capabilities; it's simply giving the injured one a final chance to call for help or rescue.

At this moment, this spell did indeed preserve a glimmer of life for this land under the rain.

“Using these things as a framework, it seems I can construct something new…” Kru thought for a moment, then took out his own file and the file of the previous pope.

The magical runes on the archives are the best guiding light.

After pondering for a moment, Kru was about to take action when he suddenly remembered something and muttered to himself, "Lord Nemus!"

"Please help me!"

After Kru finished speaking, he felt something connecting him to his unseen faith.

Then another version of myself emerged.

It's like another body that doesn't exist, yet is there nonetheless.

He had a devout faith in Lord Nemes.

Through the connection of faith, he sensed the ingenious uses of various fictional forces, as well as his understanding of the earth.

This reflection on the earth is like a reference answer, containing the various insights that a certain being has about the earth.

The key is that the earth needs to bear hope.

Earth, wind, water, fire; eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen.

The number eleven follows the number ten, representing hope, and can be seen as the cornerstone that carries hope.

Therefore, from the perspective of numerology, the earth's greatest task is to receive the arrival of hope.

Starting from this point, the most important thing for Kreut was to let the earth play its role of receiving and supporting.

Once this is achieved, then historical achievements will naturally follow.

As for letting the earth bear it, then...

Kru paused, a thoughtful expression appearing on his face.

Kru then mobilized the fictional power within Vision.

This power followed the divine patterns of the Earth Essence Technique and was then injected into the earth.

Within that illusion, countless mud soldiers and sand generals sensed something and immediately seemed to have found their leader.

They rallied once again and charged towards the demonic monsters lurking in the rain.

Those pollutants, those distortions.

At this moment, they all became their enemies.

Seeing this, Kru felt it was still not enough.

His power of fiction was too weak, and the rain had been falling for too long, causing too much pollution.

And even without rain, the soil around the church seemed to be shrouded in a sense of taboo.

Now, with the taboo of these raindrops being triggered, this becomes even more apparent.

If it had happened before the rain, then Kru would probably have already completed most of it.

But now, Kru is only barely helping these earthen lands stabilize their defenses, preventing them from completely losing the war.

As countless mud soldiers and sand generals fought relentlessly, their bodies stained with increasing forbidden contamination, Kru realized that the earth was truly at a disadvantage.

Krue even knew one thing very clearly: Lord Nemes's understanding of the earth was correct.

The Earthly Essence Technique is also correct.

Hope is more accurate.

If he has the means, by combining the power of fiction with the divine magic of the Earthly Essence Technique, he can form a structure that carries hope, bringing miracles to everything in that desperate situation.

However, Kru clearly realized that he was not capable enough.

Even with Nemes's reference answer there, and even if I have obtained all the other necessary factors.

He still lacks a certain ability.

This tiny ability is the ability to seek hope.

Krue's only need was ambition; there was no one else in his heart.

Not even for a moment.

In this state of mind, he and Nemus are similar, but there are still many differences between them.

At that moment, Kru clearly realized the limits of his abilities.

If he has enough opportunities, he might become a demon prince, a god, or even go quite a distance on the path to godhood.

But the God of Earth needs someone to save the world.

At this moment, countless memories surged through Kru's mind, and he recalled many things.

Lord Nemus once had the idea of ​​'saving the world,' and although he no longer does, his talent and wisdom are enough to make up for it. He truly has the potential to save the world.

Therefore, his 'answer' naturally gained the approval of the Earth God who saved the world, and the Earth Godhood was entrusted to Nemus.

But he was still just a little short of it.

At this moment, as long as he sends another 'self' into the vision through a fictional connection, the standard answer from Nemus can complete the task, form the number of historical achievements, and then he can take away the divinity and bring it to Nemus.
