The beast bone that Qin Ye and Tezcatlipoca were situated on was traveling a little faster, which indicated that they were getting closer to Limbo. Just like how earth had gravity, there was gravity in Limbo also.

Qin Ye wasn't flustered or impatient at all. He knew that the more background information that had to be provided with regard to something, the more complex the ending would be. There were simply far too many loose ends to clean up, which represented countless paths the story could take.

At the same time, it was also an indication that the event in question was extremely important with significant implications. After all, there was no need to provide so much background information for something simple and insignificant.

He was still considering whether it was worth trying to intercept the grand script of death. If he did decide to intercept, then how was he supposed to do that and what was the ideal incision point?

Tezcatlipoca took a deep breath before continuing, "Everything I just said is the prelude to the grand script of death. Only with this information will you be able to understand the entirety of the script. You might be wondering how I know all of this. The answer to that is very simple: the statue that I was sealed away in doesn't display any signs of life, so the people sent by the Freemasonry were freely discussing their plans right in front of me, thinking that there was no one around to overhear them, so I found out everything."

He paused momentarily before a grim tone crept into his voice. "They didn't reveal exactly what they were going to do, but you should be able to guess their plan from what I'm about to tell you next. Firstly, Tonatiuh is a sun created by the gods. In that case, how did its body come into existence? The story of the creation of Tonatiuh's body is actually also the story of how my brother, the Plumed Serpent God, and I became sworn enemies."

He heaved a long sigh as he cast his gaze toward the endless darkness as he continued, "During the First Sun, we were responsible for overseeing all living beings. At the time, there was a giant sea monster in the Usonian territorial sea known as Cipactli."

He turned to Qin Ye with a serious expression as he said, "Cipactli was the biggest sea monster in the entire world, taking a massive area at the center of the Pacific Ocean. After some discussion with the Plumed Serpent God, we decided to kill Cipactli. However, what I didn't know at the time was that he had always held a grudge against me as he was envious that I had become the first sun. Our plan was to slay Cipactli on the surface of the sea, but he pushed me straight into the depths of the sea!"

The joints of Tezcatlipoca's fists were cracking audibly as a hateful look appeared on his face.

"Even for me, facing Cipactli deep in the sea was extremely dangerous. I managed to kill it in the end, but during the process, I lost a foot, which meant that I could never become a true sun! That was where everything began..."

Qin Ye heaved a faint sigh upon hearing this.

Just as the records had stated, it was the Plumed Serpent God who had instigated this vendetta.

His actions caused Tezcatlipoca to fall from grace, and Tezcatlipoca's personality was completely warped and altered by his hatred, thereby resulting in the tragedies of the next three suns.

Tezcatlipoca continued, "However, that's not important. It's all in the past, after all, and I'll avenge myself someday. However, this story is extremely important for you to hear. After Cipactli was defeated by me, it split up into six sections, namely its tentacles, its throat, its eyes, its brain, its stomach, and its trunk. Throughout the years, those six parts of its body slowly drifted to all parts of the world."

He suddenly stopped here and Qin Ye raised an eyebrow in befuddlement.

What was he trying to say?

However, a thought then suddenly occurred to him like a flash of lightning, and he suddenly understood why Tezcatlipoca was telling him all of this. He cast an astonished gaze toward Tezcatlipoca as he exclaimed in a loud voice, "Are you telling me those are the six kings?!"

The six kings, the most fearsome monsters of the sea, were all parts of Cipactli's body?!

"That's right," Tezcatlipoca replied with a cold smile. "Each of the six kings is only a part of its body, so I'm sure you can imagine how massive it originally was, and the sun should have a massive body, right?"

Qin Ye's mouth gaped open slightly upon hearing this. "They can't be that insane..."

The fifth sun, the one that was created by the gods, was actually Cipactli, who had perished during the First Sun!

"It was the best option. Cipactli's body was extremely sturdy, and our parent god was planning to construct the divine nation on top of it following our resurrections. Unfortunately, that's most likely never going to become a reality," Tezcatlipoca said in a forlorn voice.

Qin Ye cast a meaningful gaze toward Tezcatlipoca. There was no way that Tezcatlipoca was going to resurrect these gods, and he wasn't afraid of disclosing this information to Qin Ye as he knew that a Yama-King of the Cathayan Underworld also wouldn't want to see a united new continent.

"At the time, our parent god was full of ambition. If they could construct the divine nation on the sun, then they would have a moving fortress capable of dominating both the sky and the sea. Cipactli was naturally the ruler of the sea and the power of the sun had been bestowed upon it. Perhaps that was the reason why it exploded in the end. After all, fire and water simply do not mix. However, such a prospect was far too alluring to pass up, and if the plan had come into fruition, the new continent would have a divine nation capable of ruling over the entire world both in the mortal realm and in the underworld! That would be the greatest achievement anyone has ever made in history! No one would be able to withstand the sun fortress's attacks. All of the world's landmass is surrounded by the sky and the sea, so there's no escape. We would be able to invade all of the nations one by one from the sea, then devour their religions and eventually conquer the entire world... Forgive me for going off-topic."

Tezcatlipoca took a moment to compose himself before continuing, "Getting back on track, let's return to the topic of the three Caribbean death gods' grand script of the death. Despite their current lofty ambitions, it's important to remember that they were only three pirates during their lifetimes. They are just three ordinary skeletons without any miraculous blessings or any divine artifacts at their disposal, and they perished in the sea as normal people..."

Qin Ye's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this as he took over from there. "There would be no way for their bodies to withstand the enormous influx of Yin energy required to elevate them to godhood!"

Before Tezcatlipoca had a chance to say anything, he continued, "However, there was no way for them to take over Cipactli's body as their parent god wasn't dead, he was only in a slumber. They were afraid that their parent god would awaken one day and discover that they had taken over Cipactli's body, and that would spell certain death for them. Thus, they needed to find another vessel capable of containing such enormous Yin energy, and that vessel is..."

All of the scattered bits of information in his mind began to come together, and the entire grand script of death was revealed.

They had chosen Kraken!

Kraken was a part of the body of the fifth sun and the former ruler of the sea, what could be a better vessel than it?

He couldn't help but want to applaud the creator of this grand script of death. He had thought that these were only a trio of fleas jumping around like court jesters, but in reality, if he hadn't arrived on the new continent in person, there was a very good chance that a being even more fearsome than the likes of Xolotl and Ah Puch would've arisen on the continent!

This was the lifelong goal of the three Caribbean death gods!

Qin Ye shook his head with a stunned expression. There really was not a single death god in this world that could be completely overlooked. In a place like the underworld, where a power system existed, an absolute powerhouse could simply arise seemingly out of the blue.

"You seem to have already figured it all out for yourself," Tezcatlipoca said. "If I'm not mistaken, they've most likely already attracted one of the six kings to the new continent. However, they wouldn't have attracted all of the six kings at once as it would be impossible for them to control the situation. I'm guessing they used a part of my body to lure one of the six kings to the new continent. The six kings have a natural innate urge to pursue the other portions of their bodies that are missing. They're instinctively yearning to be whole again. A part of a god's body isn't a part of Cipactli's body, but it's already the best bait, particularly because I was the one who slew Cipactli..."

Before he had a chance to finish, Qin Ye suddenly raised a hand to stop him, then turned around in silence as if he were looking aimlessly into the darkness.

Tezcatlipoca didn't interrupt him, nor did he dare to make his way over to Qin Ye to check his reaction. As a result, he failed to notice that Qin Ye was in a state of extreme excitement, so much so that the beaded bracelet in his hand was almost crushed by his white-knuckled grip!

His chest was heaving violently from his tumultuous emotions, but he quickly repressed his own excitement in order to be able to think clearly.

A thought had just occurred to him.

It was something that seemed to be completely unrelated, but was somehow able to tie everything together.

He had thought of the GTO!

In 10 years' time, the next international conference was going to be held in the Cathayan Underworld. His initial plan was to dedicate all resources to construction projects on Formosa. As long as they could develop the new energy resource, even if Formosa wasn't the most spectacular site to hold the conference, the unveiling of the new energy resource would more than make up for that.

However...

Why couldn't the conference be held on the Cathayan Underworld's sun fortress?

Kraken's massive body was definitely large enough to have a fortress built upon it. If they could hold the conference on Kraken's back, the entire world would be completely and utterly astonished!

Most importantly, if the meeting were to be held in Formosa, that would still be a part of the Cathayan Underworld. If other underworld emissaries wanted to go to the mainland for sightseeing, there was no suitable excuse he could use to turn them down. Thus, countless underworld emissaries were going to flood into all parts of the Cathayan Underworld and everything would be exposed. That was what was most bothersome to him and Zhao Yun.

However, if the conference could be held on the Kraken sun fortress, he could even hold the conference in the high sea outside of any nation's territory! He would tell all of the underworlds that this was an experiment to test out a new piece of technology, and that would give them sufficient excuse to prevent all of the foreign underworld emissaries from going to the Cathayan Underworld as the conference wasn't even being held on Cathayan territory!

Furthermore, no one would even want to go to the Cathayan Underworld then! They would all be intent on finding out as much as they could about the Kraken sun fortress so they could better protect their own nations against it.

He abruptly turned around to stare intently at Tezcatlipoca. "The grand script of death must be completed in the mortal realm as the mortal realm is the foundation of the three realms. Without the power of worship from humans, even a death god will perish, so that means that they must slay Kraken in the mortal realm so that all of their followers could witness this divine miracle, then take over Kraken's body in secret!"

"Where do you think they'll execute their plan?" Tezcatlipoca asked.

"Philadelphia!" Qin Ye replied without hesitation. "It has to be Philadelphia! Otherwise, there's no way to explain why the vault of the Freemasonry's First Usonian Bank hasn't left Philadelphia!"

Tezcatlipoca nodded in response. "That's right. Philadelphia isn't a coastline city, but Kraken can still access Philadelphia through the Delaware River. My eyes, heart, and bones are the trump card to restraining Kraken!"

He extended a slight bow as he continued, "The grand script of death is still far from its conclusion. If you want to intercept it, then you must slay Kraken in Philadelphia! You are a Yama-king so you don't need auxiliary instruments like the heart and bones of a death god. Unlike those three pesky fleas, you possess divine status and divine duty. Once you kill Kraken, all of the power of worship from the followers of the White Religion Group all over the entirety of Usonia will instantly flow into your body! Through slaying a death god that's also a part of the fifth sun's body, there's a very good chance that you'll be able to make a breakthrough to become a mid Yama-King!"

Qin Ye was pacing back and forth, and his thoughts were a little chaotic.

To intercept or not to intercept? How could he intercept?

The two Master Masons that the Freemasonry could still make use of would definitely be present at the scene, as would the three death gods of the Caribbean. Such a formidable lineup could quite possibly attract other death gods to the scene as well, and that wasn't even mentioning the fact that Kraken was also going to be present.

He was only a single death god, and his power was far too insignificant in the grand scheme of things.

All of a sudden, a thought occurred to him, and he turned to Tezcatlipoca with a befuddled expression. "How are the Freemasonry and the three death gods planning to kill Kraken?"

A grim look appeared on Tezcatlipoca's face as he replied, "Back when I was on the summit of Aconcagua, Xolotl and the Plumed Serpent God didn't come after me because our parent god had set up sufficient defensive measures to protect our statues. However, the Freemasonry was able to borrow a divine artifact from the three death gods on this occasion. This divine artifact is the most special one among all of the world's mythology, and with it, they're confident in their ability to slay Kraken. This divine artifact was also the very same one that broke the seal on my statue!"

Qin Ye took a deep breath before asking, "What is the name of this divine artifact?"
