After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 404 - 150: Ascending the Throne of Omniscience_2
"If you weren’t the Destiny Witch, we wouldn’t have come to you proactively," the representative of the past said, her cheeks slightly puffed. Her pupils reflected the intelligent and mysterious witch standing opposite her, "The scepter of destiny cannot be usurped, we have no choice but to eliminate you."
"The woven destinies have been continuously encountering snags, and it turns out you have been causing the turmoil," the representative of the present spoke irritably. They, as the Three Goddesses of Fate, were responsible for weaving the destiny of this world, yet they had been facing constant obstacles recently.
The destiny they had woven for Ahtal was to betray the Witch of Death and return to the embrace of the Goddess of Life, yet the current situation saw Ahtal utterly devoted to the Witch of Death, and was now on the verge of becoming a demon.
"The power to weave destiny belongs only to All Gods," the representative of the future said smilingly, her voice, however, was very resolute. If the witch faction gained the ability to weave destiny, it would be tantamount to them obtaining the power to write the future’s conclusion.
"Destiny belongs only to destiny," Hecate retorted coldly, without a sense of urgency despite being surrounded by the Three Goddesses of Fate. Since she dared to bestow her disciple with favours from destiny, it meant she was ready to confront the Three Goddesses of Fate.
"To be more precise, destiny belongs to the strong," said the representative of the future, smiling, but her eyes were very cold.
She had already seen Hecate’s destiny about to be locked in, just short of determining a doomed ending.
However.
"Who is the strong one?" a cold voice suddenly rang out, causing the nearly locked in destiny to undergo a tremendous change in an instant.
The Creation Witch appeared behind Hecate at some point.
The Three Goddesses of Fate exchanged glances, and then tacitly shifted their gaze to the Creation Witch.
It didn’t surprise them that the Creation Witch was present.
However, it meant they had to change their strategy.
"Hum!" The tremor from the plane of destiny directly affected the material world, and the scenery of heaven and earth drastically changed. The five individuals clashing outside the grand library suddenly vanished, moving to another plane of existence to continue their battle.
Many deities feared the Creation Witch, but this did not include the Three Goddesses of Fate. They rarely took action because they were responsible for weaving destiny and managing the gods of the high heavens, which further highlighted the strength of the Three Goddesses of Fate.

Under the phantom of the Tree of Omniscience.
"Boom!" A torrent of light struck the Tree of Omniscience head-on, leaving a clear dent, and within that dent lay a charred corpse.
Xi Mu glanced at the vanishing duplicate beside him and then turned his gaze to the body of Adam. He was certain that Adam would not die, for he had only used one of three chances to return from the dead.
As if in response to his thoughts, the charred body of Adam suddenly started to move, reverting back to his prime as if time were flowing backward.
"It really couldn’t be avoided," Adam laughed, then inquired of Ahtal, "That sword prioritizes locking onto the end before transforming into a strike of light, doesn’t it?"
"..."
Xi Mu did not answer.
But Adam’s conjecture was indeed correct; the Sword of Light was a weapon forged by the Flame Giant Surter, containing the power of Ragnarok.
And the power of Ragnarok represents the end of the world, thus allowing for an attack that reverses cause and effect, creating the feeling that it’s inescapable.
But only the Flame Giant Surter can wield that power in full. Currently, he can only manifest it as light-speed strikes that are hard to dodge.
It’s simply that the speed of the strikes makes them impossible to avoid.
"Unwilling to answer?" Adam smiled warmly and, clutching his knight’s sword, swung it fiercely, executing a combat technique contained within the sword.
To help him overcome Ahtal, All Gods not only granted him favors but also a Divine Artifact.
The Blood Kin Knight’s Sword can imbue the power of the blood kin onto the blade, where each strike manifests the strength of one’s kin.
If one has a hundred kin, then the sword can exhibit the power of a hundred people. If one has the strength of ten thousand, then the Blood Kin Knight’s Sword can display the power of ten thousand people. And if there are a billion... ten billion, a hundred billion descendants, then it can exhibit the strength of ten billion, a hundred billion people.
Being the first human of this world, and ancestrally related to all subsequent humanity, implies that Adam can wield the strength of all humankind.
The number of humans in this world.
No one has ever counted, perhaps only the Eden, the incarnate of the Tree of Omniscience, can conclude instantly.
The instant Adam swung down the sword, his figure also vanished from the ground, his feet firmly pressed against it, and with a slash, he confronted Ahtal.
"Boom!" The clash of blades sent out shock waves that sank the ground, causing even the branches of the Tree of Omniscience to shudder and leaves to fall like shooting stars.
It was the crushing power of absolute strength, and even though Ahtal could use the Flames of a Thousand Deaths to mitigate damage and was donned in Divine Artifact grade armor,
he absolutely couldn’t withstand the power of all humankind.
"Pfft!"
"Have you got it wrong?" A snide laugh echoed as the Great Sword of Death pierced through Adam’s chest and was then violently withdrawn.
Adam’s body then fell to the ground.
"I am bestowed with the favor of the Goddess of Life!" Xi Mu backed away a few steps. On seeing Adam activate the Blood Kin Knight’s Sword, he had poured most of his strength into the Great Sword of Death, granting it the effect to penetrate.
This was why he could ignore the immunity to blade injuries that Adam bore.
"Even if my body is reduced to mincemeat, I can swiftly recover," he stated while covering his mouth to spit out blood. The appalling sight of fresh blood oozing through his fingers and dripping onto the ground.
