--------------------------
Upon hearing Xu Yuan's requirements, both Xu Zhi and Yun Ming also breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, the preparations in Xu Yuan's God Realm creation plan had truly startled them.
One person was responsible for overseeing the critical transformation of the Netherworld into a God Realm while simultaneously condensing multiple God King-level divine positions—it was simply inhuman.
They were afraid that others would accuse them of treating Xu Yuan like a workhorse.
In reality, this was all Xu Yuan's own idea.
"I'll just condense the Wisdom Divine Position myself," Xu Zhi said.
Since he had returned, he naturally planned to condense a divine position within the new God Realm.
First, having a divine position came with significant benefits. After all, what was condensed wasn't entirely based on one's personal insights; much of it was the result of natural evolution after the deity who created the position laid the groundwork. This could be considered content inherently aligned with the insights of the deity who condensed the divine position.
Second, it was to help Xu Yuan increase his leverage. The boost provided by a single God King was not insignificant.
As for the rank of the divine position?
Xu Zhi was confident that he should be able to condense a God King-level divine position.
His transformation began after meeting Little Phoenix—the original Phoenix God—but fundamentally, it stemmed from his own research talent.
After the original Phoenix God broadened his horizons and pointed him in the right direction, Xu Zhi independently researched and developed the "God King Map."
This alone was enough to demonstrate his extraordinary talent.
After more than thirty years of cultivation on the Holy Demon Continent, he had reached the limit below godhood—half-step God King status. At this moment, condensing a God King divine position was only natural.
After all, he himself was using the God King Map.
Having resolved the issue of essence and being extremely close to the critical threshold, with the God Realm providing the capacity to bear the divine position, the probability of not becoming a God King was very low.
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
Throughout this year, Xu Yuan had been organizing his insights.
This was the most peaceful year.
But for Xu Yuan, it was also a crucial year.
"The evolution of the Will Realm still depends on me. Relying on chaotic energy can only accelerate the process. Only by evolving the realm myself can I maintain complete control over the Will Realm at all times."
Moreover, Xu Yuan discovered that the greatest difference between the Will Realm and the true material world was that the Will Realm existed solely within will—it belonged to nothingness.
Just as it intrinsically belonged to chaos, it did not fall under the category of the universe.
Of course, this didn't mean that the Will Realm was false.
Perhaps the entire world was an illusion, but the will within the realm was real.
When living beings truly emerged within the realm and gained thoughts, those lifeforms would also be real, and their thoughts absolutely authentic.
Back to the topic.
Xu Yuan realized that even without the Will Realm, all his achievements within it still existed.
Since it inherently belonged to nothingness, its existence or non-existence was irrelevant.
If Xu Yuan were to define it, the Will Realm might be considered a form of the Dao.
The Dao is omnipresent.
"Now I feel that I should consolidate all my previous gains into the Dao. The Will Realm is now completely under my control. With the upcoming creation of the God Realm, I can harness the vast chaotic energy to complete the evolution I need."
Xu Yuan was grateful for this period of reflection. Otherwise, following his earlier thoughts on Falan Planet, if he had attempted to nurture life within the Will Realm upon gaining such immense chaotic energy, it could have led to severe consequences—the loss of his Dao fruit.
That's right; the living beings nurtured within the Will Realm would be real and thus capable of seizing Xu Yuan's Will Realm.
After all, strictly speaking, most of the Will Realm was evolved from chaotic energy. Although the key lay in the foundation and "imagination" provided by Xu Yuan, the beings within the realm were nurtured by this world from birth, making them potentially more attuned to it than Xu Yuan!
Of course, the notion of being more attuned applied only when Xu Yuan hadn't fully digested the Will Realm. Now that he had fully assimilated it, he comprehended the essence of the entire realm. Even the life nurtured within the Will Realm, no matter how much it grew, could not surpass him, so the concept of being more attuned no longer held.
---
The year-long period ended, and Xu Yuan gathered all the invited powerful figures in the Netherworld.
First and foremost were the strongest individuals: Xu Yuan and the Blood Demon, both involved in the supreme domain, along with Little Phoenix. However, the divine position Little Phoenix was to condense wasn't the original Phoenix God position but rather the Destruction-Life essence from this reincarnation—now known as the Nirvana Origin divine position. Xu Yuan planned to expend extra effort during the condensation process to refine this position further, shaping it into a Samsara Divine Position.
Next were the God King-level figures: Long Haochen, Yun Ming, and Xu Zhi, along with those who had the potential to condense God King positions—Sacred Heart, Tian Xing, Yuan Kong, Bai Ling, and the Stone King. Additionally, Xu Yuan prepared to create surplus divine positions, including the Five Elements God, Mu Ye's Essence God, and Xu Shengqun's Spear God.
From this perspective, the scale of the God Realm Xu Yuan was creating was unimaginably vast.
It likely represented the endpoint for many God Realms.
"Today marks the creation of the Heavenly Origin God Realm!"
Yun Ming had no objections to Xu Yuan's statement.
Although this place was currently the Netherworld, once transformed into a God Realm, it deserved a new designation.
Xu Yuan named it the Heavenly Origin God Realm, the meaning of which was quite clear.
Once he spoke, spiritual energy immediately spread throughout the Netherworld.
The entire Netherworld seemed to be detaching itself from the Douluo Plane.
As the Netherworld was extracted, the fusion between Douluo Star and the Abyss advanced further. It was as if the barrier between the two had finally disappeared, allowing the two planes—one material, one energy—to merge completely, possessing a full foundation in both material and energy dimensions.
The extracted Netherworld rapidly evolved, swiftly advancing toward chaos under the pull of spiritual energy.
Indeed, the so-called void dimension was the part of the universe closest to chaos. Having entered true chaos multiple times, Xu Yuan found locating the void dimension exceptionally smooth. This convenience extended beyond just finding it; transferring there also offered significant advantages.
Soon, an energy plane rapidly ascended to great heights.
Within the entire universe, a shadow slowly rose.
At this moment, the Netherworld radiated brilliance.
Spiritual energy inscribed symbols throughout the Netherworld, using the Five Elements and Yin-Yang as the foundation to transform the entire realm.
At this moment, the Netherworld was no longer the Netherworld—it had become the Heavenly Origin God Realm.
Simultaneously, a faint shadow of the Heavenly Origin God Realm appeared across the universe, making its existence known to all.
All beings who had reached godhood sensed the disturbance emanating from the universe through the laws.
A new God Realm had been born.
"Teacher!"
Xu Yuan called out, and Yun Ming immediately came to his senses.
The Atlas Divine Spear radiated blinding white light, quickly integrating into this newly formed God Realm.
The essence of the Heavenly Origin God Realm settled onto the Atlas Divine Spear, amplifying it to the level of a super divine artifact. At this moment, the Atlas Divine Spear became the core of the God Realm.
Yun Ming also began establishing the order of the God Realm at this time.
