Chapter 564: The Most Powerful Authority....

This scene was just like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, stretching out its large wings from its small shell. The strong contrast was shocking.
Roy couldn’t care less about Gabriel and Michael at this time. He flew high up and far away from the moon. Only then could he see Lilith’s appearance clearly.
He originally thought that the Red Sea Egg, which was like Mount Everest, was already big enough. But when he saw Lilith’s spread wings, he was still shocked. Each of Lilith’s wings extended for thousands of kilometers. Not to mention the moon, even the larger planet of Sanctuary could easily be surrounded by her wings. Fortunately, it was in this incomparably vast space, or else there might not have been a place to accommodate her…
What surprised Roy was that each of Lilith’s six pairs of wings was different.
The six pairs of wings were arranged in layers on Lilith’s back. The upper and lower wings were slightly smaller, while the ones in the middle were the largest. All the wings formed a relatively neat diamond-shaped arc behind Lilith, looking very symmetrical and beautiful. The topmost pair of wings was a pair of black demon reverse wings, and the tips of the wings rose into the sky on both sides of the back of her head. Immediately below these reverse wings was a pair of angel wings emitting a pure white halo. The curved arcs of the wings happened to complement the arcs of the reverse wings above, combining without any disjointed feeling.
The third pair of wings was dragon wings. The wide membrane of the wings stretched out, and several bone spikes supported them in the middle. The tips of the spikes reflected a metallic light.
The fourth pair of wings was crystal clear insect wings. They looked like dragonfly wings, but they also had the feeling of elytra wings. There were some circling patterns on the wings, making people think of the butterfly wings.
The fifth pair of wings was even more strange. Roy couldn’t tell what kind of wings they were, but he felt that they were a bit like fish fins.
The last pair, the sixth pair of wings, had a pearl-like texture. Moreover, around the wings were some stems that looked like stamens, making the bottom pair of wings look like tail feathers.
Although the twelve wings were different, what was strange was that when they appeared together, there wasn’t the slightest sense of discordance. The position of each pair of wings and their sizes integrated very well into a whole. Moreover, the moment Roy saw Lilith’s six pairs of wings, he immediately understood the significance and symbolic meaning of these wings.
They were demons, angels, dragons, insects, fish, and plants.
Moreover, as Lilith stood up from the Red Sea Egg, Roy saw more symbols on her body!
Lilith slowly straightened up. She had rainbow hair that hung down like a waterfall, and the colors were arranged in a gradient from the inside to the outside. Her head was slowly fluttering behind her hair, and hidden in her hair was a pair of pointed long ears. Between her ears was a perfect face. The original demon horns on her forehead were gone, replaced by a pair of small horns. Her eyes had no pupils and emitted dazzling light. Her upper body was completely human, and woven red petals wrapped around her towering chest, revealing the fine and unblemished skin of her abdomen and arms. But her lower body was a snake body, and it looked quite long. The process of Lilith straightening up was also the process of her snake body being propped up.
All of this, combined with her titanic body, which was so huge that even the moon couldn’t accommodate it, finally formed Lilith’s original appearance.
” ..! ! ! ” Roy was so shocked that he couldn’t say anything. He just stared blankly at Lilith’s colossal body in the starry sky, and the term ‘Mother of All Races’ echoed repeatedly in his mind.
Yes, anyone with a little common sense could see the traces of the myths passed down in many worlds and races from Lilith’s body. Her body contained almost all the characteristics of everything in the world. She was the first woman created by the Creator, and the many races born afterward could be said to have been based on her. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was the Mother of All Races.
The moment she broke out of the cocoon, the aura unique to Lilith spread out from the Red Sea Egg. Because the scene of Lilith appearing was too shocking, Roy didn’t notice the changes in Gabriel’s and Michael’s expressions.
Although Gabriel maintained a body of light and didn’t have a face, the moment he sensed Lilith’s aura, the light of his entire body of light flickered rapidly, showing the shock in his heart. He had never thought that the one hiding in the Red Sea Egg was not another demon king but his old acquaintance Lilith! After the shock, Gabriel actually cowered and subconsciously hid behind Michael. But then he reacted and quickly stopped his action.
After recognizing Lilith, Michael subconsciously raised the sword in his hand in front of him. Then he looked at Lilith’s stretched body with a complicated expression and whispered to himself, “The Serpent of Eden..
Lilith, who had finally completed her consciousness and awakened, was in space, but her snake body (foot) was standing on the moon. She let out a satisfied murmur that resounded in the depths of the souls of all living beings. On Sanctuary, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, countless nephalem and all the animals, plants, birds, insects, and fish on the planet stopped moving at this moment. A kind of ancient genetic memory made all living beings listen quietly to Lilith’s voice.
It wasn’t until the murmur echoing in their souls disappeared that the unintelligent creatures continued their way of life. The intelligent creatures were already kneeling down and looking up at the moon in the sky, expressing their sincere respect to Lilith.
Yes, at this moment, on the planet of Sanctuary, Lilith’s colossal body was clearly visible. Especially the necromancers of Rathma, under Mendeln’s lead, they were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes as they shouted the name of Blessed Mother Lilith…
After Lilith’s murmur, she lowered her head and first collected the entire Blood Sea on the surface of the moon. Then under her control, the Red Sea Egg began to shrink and finally returned to its seed state. It emitted a crystalline light as it rose from the moon. She stretched out her white right arm, held the seed that rose in front of her, and gently pressed the seed into her abdomen.
The Red Sea Egg finally disappeared into Lilith’s abdomen…
Roy watched this scene quietly, feeling that Lilith’s every move had a unique meaning.
After putting away the Red Sea Egg, Lilith turned to look at Roy. No expression could be seen in her glowing eyes, but her voice resounded in his mind. “Well done, Osiris. I… have finally returned! Thank you for your protection!”
In space, Roy held his arm across his chest and bowed to Lilith from afar. He didn’t speak and just expressed his respect to the Mother of All Races.
Lilith smiled and nodded before looking at Gabriel and Michael.
“It’s been a long time, you two!” Lilith’s voice continued. Roy could hear it this time. She said to Gabriel and Michael in an inexplicable tone, “Although I was in the Red Sea Egg, I still knew the situation in the outside world… Gabriel, you actually wanted to snatch my Red Sea Egg?”
“No, it’s a misunderstanding…” Although Gabriel had no face, his voice sounded very bitter. “I didn’t know that it was you inside…”
Lilith didn’t respond and instead said to Michael, “What about you? Michael, why aren’t you guarding your Eden? Why did you come to this world?”
“Lilith…” Michael’s expression was complicated. “It’s been more than two hundred million years. Have you still not given up on your goal?”
“To be precise, I have already achieved my goal!” Lilith said proudly. “I have already obtained the power to go to the depths of the Void. My next step is to follow the footsteps of the Creator and return to his side.”
These words seemed to have provoked Michael. Michael suddenly said angrily, “Lilith! Why are you always so willful?! Back then, you released the humans from Eden, causing them to be everywhere in the Infinite Worlds. Now, every world where humans are born is causing the entropy of the entire Void to increase. Compared to when the Creator first created the world, the current level of activity of the Void has exceeded imagination. Under such circumstances, you still want to go to the depths of the Void?! Do you know that doing this might cause the Void to riot?!”
“Willful?” Lilith said in amusement. “Is this the first day you’ve known me? Have you forgotten that the Creator once said that from the moment the world was born, it was actually walking toward extinction? Since it’s all destruction in the end, what’s the difference between earlier and later? Is it possible that you still want to persist in your way of thinking and turn a blind eye to the colorful Infinite Worlds created by the Creator and only guard Eden while struggling at death’s door?”
“Why not?” Michael snorted coldly. “The Creator entrusted us with the protection of the world he created, so we should let it exist forever! This is our mission!”
Lilith and Michael argued fiercely here, but Roy was shocked.
Roy heard some secrets from the argument between the two ancients.
It seemed that humans were the final creation of the Creator before he left.
After creating humans, the Creator left and handed them over to the angels of
Eden to take care of. The angels fulfilled the Creator’s instructions very well. But because humans were not like the innately powerful angels, demons, titans, and dragons, over time, they looked more like they were being reared by angels.
And at this time, Lilith appeared. She willfully let the initial humans eat the fruits of the Tree of Life, Kabbalah, allowing humans to gain wisdom, thoughts, and extraordinary potential.
After Michael and the other six Genesis Angels learned of this, they were furious. They felt that Lilith had artificially changed the will of the Creator, so they finally joined forces. Not only did they expel Lilith from Eden, but they also expelled humans and let them reproduce in the Infinite Worlds.
This was also why Michael called Lilith the ‘Serpent of Eden’!
Of course, Lilith had likely done this on purpose. Perhaps her maternal nature made her unwilling to see humans being kept in captivity and reared… At first, the angels didn’t pay much attention to it, but it was already too late when they realized that the entropy of the universe and the Void was increasing substantially with the continuous reproduction and activity of humans.
They could only start observing and evaluating humans again. But as they observed and evaluated, the angels gradually had different opinions. One was led by hardliners like Michael. They believed that if this continued, the world created by the Creator might be affected by the dramatic increase in entropy and lead to it being devoured by the Void, so they advocated for the destruction of humans. The Seven Archangels of Eden each held a Trumpet of Destruction, and once they blew them, they could quickly wash away everything in the Infinite Worlds.
The other faction was the moderate faction led by Gabriel. They felt that since they were all creatures created by the Creator, they should give humans an equal chance of survival.
In short, just as Roy had seen in Uriel’s memories, Eden had yet to come to a conclusion…
The argument between Lilith and Michael inevitably involved these old matters, to which Roy enjoyed listening.
Just as he had guessed, Lilith was neither an angel nor a demon. She had actually joined the Abyss after being expelled from Eden. After all, without the restraint of the Creator, Eden and the Abyss had already begun the Eternal War. The acceptance of Lilith by the Seven Demon Kings of the Abyss was equivalent to accepting immense help.
While Lilith and Michael were arguing, Gabriel remained silent. Who knew what he was thinking. Michael was the Archangel of Fire, so his personality and temper were naturally very fiery. After arguing for a while, he saw that Lilith was unwilling to admit her mistake. So anger rose in his heart, and he wanted to fight her!
Although Lilith had already recovered her Deadly Sin-level strength, Michael was the same. He could be said to be the only Archangel in all of Eden who had never split his body to create clones, so he naturally maintained his Genesis strength and was not inferior to Lilith.
But when Michael drew his sword and wanted to fight Lilith, the person who stood out to dissuade him was actually his comrade, Gabriel!
Gabriel grabbed Michael and whispered, “Forget it, Michael! Don’t fight Lilith. Have you forgotten the impact she caused on Eden?”
“Uhh!” Michael was originally angry, but after hearing what Gabriel said, he suddenly thought of something and stopped stiffly.
He didn’t dare to make a move, and it was difficult to leave. For a moment, Michael looked awkward and froze on the spot.
Roy, this melon-eating demon, naturally saw this scene and felt that it was very strange, so he couldn’t help but secretly ask Lilith through soul transmission, “What did you do when you were in Eden? Why do Gabriel and Michael seem so afraid of you?”
But before Lilith could answer, Michael was furious. How could Roy hide his soul transmission to Lilith from him? Michael was a little embarrassed and couldn’t back down at this moment, so he immediately roared at Roy, “Demon! How dare you still stay here?! I haven’t investigated the matter of you injuring
Gabriel yet!”
Clearly, Roy had angered him. Compared to Lilith, a former colleague, in Michael’s understanding, Roy, a demon king he didn’t know, shouldn’t be here. Some ancient secrets shouldn’t be leaked!
Thus, Michael swung his sword at Roy! As he slashed, the space within thousands of kilometers of him immediately collapsed, and all kinds of phenomena caused by the collapse of space erupted. At the same time, a black hole vortex completely blocked Roy’s position.
He couldn’t dodge or escape. Facing a Deadly Sin-level attack, he finally realized how great the disparity was! It was a terrifying power that seemed to trigger the mighty power of the entire universe to attack!
Roy’s mind was spinning rapidly as he thought about how to deal with Michael’s attack. But before he could think of a solution, the slash had already arrived in front of him along with the collapsing space!
But just as Roy was about to deal with the impact, Lilith made a move as expected. She stretched out her huge palm in front of Roy, blocking Michael’s attack for him. A dazzling light burst out, but then it quickly extinguished.
Lilith crushed Michael’s slash with one hand. She looked at Michael unhappily and said, “Osiris was my protector. Michael, you actually dared to attack him?! It seems that you’ve really forgotten my power. It’s necessary for you to remember it!”
When Gabriel heard what Lilith said, the holy light on his body couldn’t help surging. He immediately reacted and rushed over to pull Michael back. “Let’s leave quickly! ! ”
While Gabriel was fleeing with Michael, a Gate of Heaven opened in front of them. But before they could enter the Gate of Heaven and return to Eden, Lilith’s counterattack had already arrived.
Lilith’s counterattack was not as earth-shattering as Michael’s attack. She simply raised her right hand and cast a ‘blessing’ on Michael!
The next moment, Michael noticed the abnormality in his body. His body suddenly erupted with astonishing holy light power. This incomparably powerful holy light power made his body look like a new star. But in this dazzling light, Roy was surprised to see a shadow appear in Michael’s body! This shadow initially overlapped with Michael, but it soon distanced itself.
The entire process was not long. As soon as Roy wondered what was happening, Michael’s dazzling sun-like light suddenly became two!
‘IXIVO identical bodies and two identical masses of light, but they were much weaker than before. Moreover, the two Michaels looked extremely exhausted and weak.
Roy’s jaw dropped, and he couldn’t close his mouth at all. He thought that he was hallucinating, so he rubbed his eyes hard. After rubbing them, he realized that this wasn’t an illusion but that Michael had really become two! Moreover, after Michael became two, the original twelve wings on his back became six.
W-whats going on?!
Gabriel, who was dragging Michael and fleeing, couldn’t help patting his hood when he saw this scene… Oh no, he was still hit!
But he didn’t dare to delay. He stretched out his hand to grab the other six-winged Michael and entered the Gate of Heaven without looking back. After they entered, the Gate of Heaven vanished in a hurry.
Roy initially thought that Gabriel and Michael would fight Lilith in this world, but he didn’t expect the two of them to leave so dramatically. After a moment, he asked Lilith blankly, “W-what did you do to Michael just now?” As a result, Lilith’s answer almost made Roy fall to the moon.
She said, “It’s very simple. I got Michael to give birth to a child!”
Ever since he became a demon, Roy had never wanted to complain so crazily like he did today! What Lilith said really surprised him. He thought that she had used some astonishing power that he didn’t understand. After all, she was at the Deadly Sin level… But he absolutely didn’t expect that Lilith had just gotten Michael ‘to give birth’!
“You used the authority of reproduction?” After a while, Roy finally returned to his senses.
“That’s right!” Lilith said proudly. “The authority of reproduction bestowed to me by the Creator is the only power in this world that can’t be stopped and resisted! Why do you think Gabriel is so afraid of me? That’s because when I was in Eden, I used this power of reproduction to make Gabriel reproduce once. He knows how terrifying I am!”
Roy finally understood. No wonder he kept feeling that Gabriel seemed to be afraid of Lilith. He had thought that Gabriel was afraid of her Deadly Sin-level power, but he didn’t expect that what he was truly afraid of was her authority!
After pondering for a while, Roy asked curiously, “Aren’t angels genderless? How can they have children?”
“Hmph!” Lilith said proudly, “Who told you that you can’t reproduce without sex? Haven’t you heard of mitosis? Not only mitosis, but any cell proliferation behavior can be regarded as the power of reproduction!”
“In other words, Michael mitotically split out a child who is exactly like him just now?” Roy said with a strange expression. “But after he split, the number of wings changed. This means that the other Michael took away half of his power… This looks like a clone no matter how I look at it!”
Lilith smiled. “Of course. Don’t you know that the tradition of angels and demons using clones originally came from me?”
Roy no longer knew what expression to use to express his emotions. There was only one thought in his mind now.
Whom she stares at gets pregnant! Lilith is actually so terrifying!
