In the blink of an eye, a year passed since the battle and the world had settled into two factions. One belonged to the remnants of the old gods and their leader the beyond while the other side belonged to the new gods and their leader Derik who had reached the demigod realm and has stabilized his cultivation. Due to the injury the beyond incurred from its first fight with Derik, it was reduced to the lowest grade of the true god realm due to the fatal injury it incurred and that's why it tried to recover its strength by hoarding all the resources of the god vein and after its current battle with Derik where its spirit materialization was consumed by Derik, it was reduced to the Demigod realm, placing the beyond and Derik at the same level.
