Under Xu Yuan's isolation, the Heavenly Origin God Realm had almost completely broken free from the universe's control. This made the universe instinctively panic, fearing that the Heavenly Origin God Realm would take its vast fortune and leave.
Now, sensing that the Heavenly Origin God Realm had needs, it immediately provided abundant energy without hesitation.
The influx of immense stellar energy caused the Heavenly Origin God Realm to rapidly expand. The realm's laws began to operate, and life started to sprout on what was once barren land.
Enormous trees sprouted from the ground, reaching high into the clouds.
Large amounts of stellar energy were refined and transformed into even denser energy, integrating into the essence of the God Realm.
Under the functioning mechanisms of the God Realm, faith energy from the subordinate planes quickly converged.
Although the God Realm had just been created, thirty years had already passed in the subordinate planes.
Thirty years—enough for two generations to grow. Even on Douluo Planet, it was no longer Xu Tian's era but rather a new generation's world.
Notably, over these thirty years, the overall level of new soul masters on Douluo Planet far surpassed previous generations. The creation of the God Realm and its relationship with the subordinate planes benefited many soul masters, especially those whose martial souls were linked to corresponding deities, receiving divine blessings.
Yes, the condensation of divine positions also relied on the cultivators of the subordinate planes.
Strictly speaking, while the God Realm protected the subordinate planes and guided their development, the subordinate planes, in turn, supported the continuous advancement of the God Realm—not only through faith but also by subtly enhancing all aspects of the God Realm.
During the condensation of divine positions, deities resonated with corresponding abilities in the subordinate planes, making the condensation process smoother while also enhancing the corresponding abilities in the subordinate planes.
This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity.
In this creation of the God Realm, countless divine positions were condensed, covering nearly every aspect. This meant that within the subordinate planes, the cultivation aptitudes related to these aspects would receive a significant boost. Even spatial attribute practitioners gained the blessing of the Space God position, increasing their affinity with space.
Over these thirty years, not only were Xu Yuan and others working hard, but there were also official efforts in the subordinate planes to spread news of the new God Realm's birth and declare its orthodox status.
During this time, faith was nearly solidified, accumulating an enormous amount of faith energy.
Faith energy contained the will of living beings, and the will within it could effect great changes, especially for the God Realm.
Under the coordination of the God Realm's core, faith energy merged with stellar energy, using the will within the faith energy as a guide. The stellar energy became highly concentrated, transforming into higher-quality energy—spiritual essence.
As spiritual essence formed, it was swiftly absorbed by many gods.
After a long while, there was finally some surplus of spiritual essence, which began to diffuse throughout the God Realm.
The vibrant life force within the God Realm began to change again, filling with spiritual essence and finally attaining the beauty of a true God Realm.
It wasn't just beauty; even the air within the God Realm seemed sweet, and taking a breath brought comfort straight to the soul.
If an ordinary person entered the God Realm and breathed in some spiritual essence, they might transform their innate aptitude overnight, leaping from an ordinary individual to a genius.
"Everyone, choose your own locations within the corresponding areas to build your residences."
Within the Heavenly Origin God Realm, the central structure was the Order Temple, where Yun Ming resided—the domain of the God of Order. Above the Order Temple floated the Divine Council. God Kings held one hundred votes, 1st-Class Gods twenty votes, powerful pseudo-God King level 1st-Class Gods thirty votes, 2nd-Class Gods five votes, and 3rd-Class Gods one vote. Major decisions of the God Realm were decided through voting.
Surrounding the Order Temple were the residences of other God Kings. Further out lay the domains of 1st-Class Gods, and so on. Of course, the Heavenly Origin God Realm wasn't entirely rigid in its order—it allowed some gods to carve out their own spaces to live in, as long as they didn't interfere with others.
As Xu Yuan finished speaking, many gods began following the rules, selecting suitable locations and quickly constructing their residences.
With this, the construction of the God Realm had entered its final stages.
Xu Yuan arrived at the very center, waving his hand to conjure a temple from nothingness.
Seeing this, Yun Ming gazed at Xu Yuan in astonishment.
"Teacher, this is truly Chaos-level power. I can now confidently say that transcending beyond God King status is the correct path. The Supreme God King merely contests with the universe's instincts—the cosmic will—for control of the cosmos. But honestly, even if we set aside whether such a contest can be won, how can anyone guarantee they can fully control something as vast as the universe?"
Even controlling a single plane like Douluo Planet required someone to enter slumber to digest their identity as the plane's master. How much more difficult would it be for an entire universe?
Supreme God King?
Even in terms of a soul master system measuring up to five hundred levels, it wouldn't qualify.
The projection of the vast God Realm onto the subordinate planes occupied nearly half of the core region of the universe. The actual size of the God Realm was far smaller than the subordinate planes—thousands of times smaller. Yet, even so, controlling the God Realm required the God King to rely on the God Realm's core mechanism, and even then, the full cooperation of all gods was needed to mobilize its complete power.
And compared to the entirety of the universe, even occupying half of the core region was still just a drop in the ocean.
"Contesting against the cosmic will is an endless and irrational path."
On Douluo Planet, trying to forcefully become the plane's master might still offer some room for contention. But striving to seize control of the universe from the cosmic will was simply impossible.
On the contrary, Xu Yuan speculated that if there was any real hope of success, it might inversely trigger the universe to nurture its own will. At that point, the cosmic will might no longer be an instinct but a genuine life form!
"Chaos?" Yun Ming murmured, noting Xu Yuan's reminder.
Beyond God King status, there was no need to continue enhancing the power of authority to achieve singular dominance in the universe. Instead, one should attempt transcendence, breaking free from the universe's control and entering the realm of "nothingness"—chaos.
Thus, cultivation in the dimensions of "being" and "non-being" was fundamental.
Once one reached the God King level and began mastering authority, the focus should shift from expanding authority to deeply controlling it, permeating its power through the universe's laws and penetrating into the realm of "nothingness."
Especially within the God Realm, such cultivation was most convenient.
Little Phoenix stood nearby, feeling deeply shocked. Conjuring a palace out of thin air completely overturned his understanding. Even at his peak, he couldn't achieve such a feat.
Because he understood—it wasn't spatial teleportation but creating something from nothing.
Pure creation from void.
Far more exaggerated than creating life.
Present were Xu Zhi, Long Haochen, and others, all awestruck by Xu Yuan's methods and beginning to contemplate the chaos Xu Yuan spoke of.
"So... what exactly is your current strength?" Little Phoenix asked hesitantly.
Xu Yuan glanced at Little Phoenix, thoughtfully pondered for a moment, and replied, "I'm not sure, but most likely Supreme God King?"
Without engaging in true combat, it was hard to compare.
After all, he had even skipped the God King stage, directly entering the Chaos realm.
However, during his time on Falan Star, he had clashed with the shadow of Tang San's past life—not the true Supreme God King body, but still indicative of his strength back then—half-step Supreme!
Upon returning to the Douluo Universe, he organized his knowledge, created the Heavenly Origin God Realm, gained profound insights, and evolved his Will Realm once more, truly becoming a Dao Ancestor who opened heavens and earth.
At this point, he was undoubtedly a genuine Supreme God King in strength.
And among the strongest of them.
Little Phoenix gave a skeptical look.
He stared at Xu Yuan, unable to believe it.
Could mere Supreme God Kings match the skill of creating objects from nothing?
"Well, my strength isn't important. You all should stabilize your divine positions first, quickly absorb the benefits of the divine positions, and then pass them on."
"The Heavenly Origin God Realm won't expel gods who lose their divine positions. It will allow you to remain in the God Realm for the equivalent of a thousand years in the subordinate planes. During this time, you'll also have access to the God Realm's dimensions to comprehend the Chaos realm."
"Divine positions have their advantages, but losing them has benefits too. Being unbound might just be the foundation for transcendence."
Divine positions were ultimately the crystallization of authority, belonging to the universe's forces. Even though the Heavenly Origin God Realm had minimal connection to the universe, it still maintained some ties.
As time passed, this integration would deepen.
The ceaseless flow of faith energy from the subordinate planes, combined with the resonance of cultivators with the numerous divine positions within the God Realm, would mix with the universe's forces, gradually normalizing the Heavenly Origin God Realm.
After speaking, Little Phoenix and others went to assimilate their powers, while Xu Yuan looked toward the sky.
"My uncle and teacher are still having difficulty digesting their divine positions."
There, several people were still absorbing their divine positions.
Since these divine positions weren't self-condensed, and their own strength was insufficient, fusion was challenging for them now.
Fortunately, the authority of the divine positions aligned with their expertise, making the difficulties surmountable. Especially with Xu Yuan, the creator, providing shortcuts, fusion was only a matter of time.
Xu Shengqun and Mu Ye could sense the outside disturbances and felt a bit anxious, eager to quickly fuse with their corresponding divine positions.
"Uncle, Teacher, the divine positions you're fusing are God King positions. Don't rush it."
Feeling their unstable states, Xu Yuan offered his advice.
Upon hearing this, the two became resolute and ceased being swayed by external factors.
"What a pity. The Space God position didn't reach God King level, and Tian Xing is still one step short. Stone King did manage to condense successfully, but fusion encountered issues."
Looking at three other targets in the sky, Xu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
Stone King was the most unfortunate—he had condensed his own divine position but couldn't merge with it. Watching him, Xu Yuan couldn't help but feel sorrowful.
"I'll give you a chance to reset your foundation. This was my method back then."
After explaining to Stone King, Xu Yuan received his agreement. Xu Yuan then struck down Stone King, extracting all his essence and transforming it into a rune that fell into Douluo Planet to reincarnate.
This was a reincarnation with memories, but it severed all of Stone King's innate perfect elemental life talents. Thus, all the insights in his memory became unusable.
He would need to start over, cultivating until he reached godhood to inherit his past legacy and truly become a God King.
But even so, Stone King was satisfied.
Xu Yuan gave him nine chances. If he failed once, he could still reincarnate as an essence rune.
"Tian Xing, the path of the War God lacks a physical cultivation system. Abandon the element-based path and cultivate anew."
Tian Xing fell silent for a moment.
He had heard Xu Yuan's words to Stone King.
After contemplation, he nodded to Xu Yuan.
Nine chances—if successful, he would ascend to God King. If he failed, everything would vanish, and he'd disappear from this world forever.
"Yuan Kong, you—"
"No need to explain. I agree to reincarnate too," Yuan Kong declared resolutely.
Xu Yuan twitched an eyebrow and waved his hand dismissively.
"I wasn't suggesting you reincarnate but reminding you that if you can't improve further, focus on digesting the authority of the divine position first. Wait for the next Space God to help elevate you to God King status. At that point, you may have another chance to gain insight."
The next Space God Xu Yuan referred to was naturally his younger brother, Xu Tian.
Xu Tian had now broken through to the Main God level.
Though his talent couldn't match Xu Yuan's, it was still extremely impressive. Moreover, he hadn't hit a bottleneck yet and was expected to reach half-step God King within fifty years.
Honestly, if the Space God position were left to Xu Tian after a century to condense, the probability of it becoming a God King position would be much higher.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one.
Since Yuan Kong hadn't condensed a God King-level Space God position, Xu Yuan naturally considered assigning this task to his younger brother.
Because Yuan Kong hadn't broken through to the next tier, the rich content within the current Space God position was something he could digest relatively quickly—it belonged to his current level, without requiring long-term occupation.
Of course, if Yuan Kong didn't want to give up the divine position and still wished to try on his own, Xu Yuan wouldn't dissuade him further.
For Xu Tian, there was always the option of not entering the God Realm system and achieving God King status independently.
Xu Yuan himself had only recently entered the Chaos realm and wasn't yet fully familiar with it. However, he was confident that given time to study, he could find a way to break through before becoming a God King, directly forging a path within chaos.
Yuan Kong fell into deep thought.
Xu Yuan's words were clear: if he couldn't succeed even with the opportunity of the God Realm's creation, the likelihood of overcoming this bottleneck later was virtually zero. It was better to place hope in the next Space God.
In truth, Yuan Kong was well aware of his limits. He knew he had reached his peak.
It wasn't even a matter of external assistance anymore.
He had already enjoyed external support but still hadn't succeeded.
Hearing Xu Yuan mention the next Space God, Yuan Kong envisioned a figure, recognizing who Xu Yuan was referring to.
Xu Tian's fame in the universe had grown significantly. As the second prodigy after Xu Yuan, his rise was second only to Xu Yuan's.
Though there were others like Mu Ye who rose rapidly from the god level, when considering age, Xu Tian was undoubtedly the second prodigy.
Knowing Xu Yuan intended for his younger brother to inherit the Space God position, Yuan Kong took a deep breath and said, "I'll finish digesting as soon as possible. Also, since I haven't reached God King status, I wonder…"
Xu Yuan responded, "I'll ensure Xiao Tian reserves a spot for you in the God Realm. You can continue cultivating there. When the divine position advances, you'll directly receive feedback."
"Alright!"
Yuan Kong bowed deeply.
"Thank you!"
"Hmm?"
Xu Yuan turned his head, looking outside the God Realm.
"The Dragon God dispute has concluded."
Clearly, Blood Demon's divine dragon was more suited to the Dragon God position. Even as a latecomer, he showed no weakness in the competition. During the struggle, Blood Demon displayed targeted techniques, firmly suppressing the Dragon God.
Watching the replay through the fortune threads, Xu Yuan couldn't help but admire Blood Demon's cunning.
Despite their shared experiences, Xu Yuan had never seen such moves or even their prototypes. Blood Demon truly knew how to endure and conceal.
The Dragon God fell, and the consciousness residing in the divine position dissipated. Blood Demon took control of the Dragon God position and began modifying it.
Even the Dragon God position was different. By inheriting the Dragon God position, Blood Demon represented a completely new lineage of dragons, impacting the ancient dragon race.
Most visibly, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue's bloodline didn't disappear. On the contrary, her bloodline became wholly her own, growing even stronger.
During Xu Yuan's creation of the Heavenly Origin God Realm, she had also been condensing a divine position, albeit only a 1st-Class God position.
"Blood Demon succeeded."
Little Phoenix soared into the sky, arriving beside Xu Yuan. Whether out of joy for Blood Demon or something else, his tone was excited.
"Xu Yuan, I'm about to merge with my divine position. Block the other Phoenix Gods for me."
With that, he left the God Realm.
Though he had listened to Xu Yuan's explanation of chaos, Little Phoenix still didn't believe the Chaos realm was the right path.
Being constrained was fine by him. He didn't want to lose himself in chaos.
Chaos had no concept—no time, no space, no direction. Everything might depend purely on imagination. Such a void world was unbearable for Little Phoenix.
Therefore, he still wanted to reclaim his divine position.
Little Phoenix revealed his true form. Once a small phoenix, he had now grown immensely. Spreading his wings, he resembled a sun-obscuring divine bird.
Vibrant flames of life surrounded his body, resembling a scene of rebirth through fire.
A grand fireworks display illuminated the entire universe.
From all corners of the universe, various Phoenix Gods were drawn.
They saw this scene through fluctuations in the laws.
The reunification of the universe's sole divine position attracted all peers. Even those separated by millions of miles could manifest before the Supreme Divine Position to contend with Little Phoenix.
Seeing dozens of figures gather before Little Phoenix, Xu Yuan strolled out of the Heavenly Origin God Realm, positioning himself between Little Phoenix and the other Phoenix Gods.
Dozens of Phoenix God Kings.
Xu Yuan was taken aback.
Just how many God Realms were there in this multiverse? They had gathered so many Phoenix Gods.
What about the other God Kings?
Were there really four digits' worth?
Most of the dozens of Phoenix God shadows bore no hostility—they were merely spectators. Many were only at the early or middle stages of God King and lacked the qualifications to compete.
Among them, only three had truly reached the peak of God King status and were actively suppressed. Additionally, three others were at the normal peak of God King status.
These six Phoenix Gods were Little Phoenix's main opponents.
It was also possible that other Phoenix Gods were hiding, waiting for the critical moment to deliver a fatal blow to Little Phoenix.
"Everyone, give me some face."
Xu Yuan's calm voice echoed in the ears of the numerous Phoenix Gods.
"You meddled in the Dragon God position dispute, and now you're interfering with the Phoenix God position?" One of the six Phoenix Gods, a human with phoenix bloodline, angrily rebuked Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan looked at this Phoenix God.
"So what? Blood Demon and the original Phoenix God are close to me—I naturally helped them."
Blood Demon's claim to the Dragon God position stemmed from his creation of the divine dragon bloodline, birthing the first divine dragon and directly initiating the divine position contest. Other Dragon Gods had no right to interfere. In fact, Xu Yuan hadn't played much of a role.
Truthfully, he hadn't even witnessed the battle.
"This is the Way (Dao) Contention!" Another phoenix spoke solemnly, his tone carrying a threat. "Think carefully. This fight concerns our future. If you interfere again, you're destroying our hope."
"Hope?" Xu Yuan shook his head. "The divine position originally belonged to the first generation. He's merely reclaiming it after thorough preparation."
He looked at the Phoenix God threatening him.
Countless runes materialized out of nowhere across the universe. Each rune emitted a mesmerizing glow, as if staring too long would cause one to lose consciousness.
The runes coalesced into a massive spear.
The spear thrust down, piercing through the shadow of the threatening Phoenix God.
Other Phoenix Gods were about to mock.
This was a contest for the Supreme Divine Position. Only shadows appeared here, and only the original Phoenix God could truly interact with them. Outsiders couldn't harm their shadows.
However, before their mockery could escape their lips, they heard the agonized scream of the pierced Phoenix God.
A phoenix cry filled with pain, struggle, and eventual despair.
At this moment, the numerous Phoenix Gods realized that the spear still pierced through that Phoenix God. Moreover, the runes forming the spear had dematerialized, becoming non-corporeal, seemingly projected like the Phoenix God's shadow itself.
Across infinite space-time, Xu Yuan had harmed the Phoenix God's true body through his shadow!
And this strike undoubtedly gravely injured the Phoenix God.
The numerous Phoenix Gods were terrified.
Outsiders could indeed interfere!
There were many ways outsiders could intervene, but Xu Yuan's direct action—harming their true bodies through their shadows and utterly overwhelming them—was astonishing.
One strike gravely injured a peak God King, and from his mournful cry, one could sense despair.
This strike would continuously erode his life force until he was extinguished!
"Soon, the Great God Circle's power will suffice."
Tang San sighed in relief.
Escaping the black hole was a good thing.
"After leaving the black hole, I'll immediately connect with the fortune of their God Realm. Their fortune, combined with the residual fortune of the Douluo God Realm, might be enough for me to return to Supreme God King status."
Tang San harbored deep hatred for Xu Yuan.
In this life, he planned to restart everything, including his divine position.
His previous divine position, though titled "God of Slaughter: Asura God," had many flaws, especially due to the dishonorable way he obtained it. The portion of the Supreme Slaughter God position he controlled was minimal, incapable of competing with other Supreme God Kings.
Thus, he plotted for tens of thousands of years, maintaining his growth path in this life through the power left by his past life. He successfully inherited dual divine positions—one being the Asura God, related to the Slaughter God, kept as a backup, and the other being the Sea God, chosen to counteract the Slaughter God's influence, along with the resilient Blue Silver Grass' imperial lineage.
"Once the Sea God position reaches its peak, I'll use it to neutralize the killing intent in the Slaughter God position and ascend to the Supreme Slaughter God position via the Asura God."
Tang San laid out his plans.
The only concern now was fortune.
Would the fortune of the other six God Realms be enough?
"Is anyone else going to contest?"
Xu Yuan looked at the remaining Phoenix Gods.
Immediately, none dared to respond.
Seeing this, Little Phoenix let out a grateful phoenix cry and threw himself into the blazing divine position above.
Throughout the process, not a single Phoenix God interfered.
Their shadows surrounded the Supreme Divine Position, as if witnessing the return of the true Phoenix God.
The original returned!
With the nourishment of countless subordinate planes, the Heavenly Origin God Realm rapidly developed.
Xu Yuan instructed Yun Ming to accumulate power without expanding the God Realm's range, preparing instead to advance to a Divine Star.
Yes, advancing to a Divine Star!
The Heavenly Origin God Realm already possessed an extraordinary number of God Kings, making it quite stable. Moreover, detaching from the Douluo Plane for too long would weaken their connection.
Now, Xu Yuan awaited the return of all God Kings and the digestion of all their powers.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, three years had gone by.
Three years in the God Realm equaled a thousand years in the subordinate planes.
Xu Tian broke through to half-step God King thirty-five years after the Phoenix returned, accumulated power alone for fifty years, then took over the Space God position. After two hundred years of effort, he elevated it to God King level.
By this point, his spatial physique had minimal impact on him.
Nevertheless, he continued steadily advancing the Space God position. Over seven hundred years later, he had become a high-level God King, just one step away from the peak.
The Reincarnation Divine Position was held by Fang Yuan.
Yes, Fang Yuan!
Xu Yuan accidentally discovered that Fang Yuan was also a reincarnation, but without any memories—a more thorough modification than Tang San's self-altering memory technique.
However, some force sustained Fang Yuan's progress, allowing Xu Yuan to detect traces.
Xu Yuan helped Fang Yuan uncover clues from the fortune threads and recover his past memories.
At that moment, Fang Yuan let out a bitter laugh and muttered, "After all these twists and turns, I've returned to this path."
Fang Yuan disdained the Reincarnation Divine Position condensed by Little Phoenix and drastically altered it, elevating it to peak God King level. He then modified it within the Douluo Plane, preliminarily establishing a reincarnation system. The Abyss side was adapted to suit spiritual (Yin) bodies, while Douluo Planet served as the opposing Yang realm.
While doing this, he muttered that Douluo Planet's developmental structure was more suited for building a reincarnation system.
Regarding the Blood God position condensed by Blood Demon, Xu Yuan assigned the eldest disciple to take over. With his help, the other Seven Treasures also condensed divine positions. Combined with their accumulation under the normal god-level system of the universe, they all achieved 1st-Class God positions.
Everything was ready.
Xu Yuan emerged from another round of seclusion.
"This is the Great God Circle, indeed. No wonder it's the God Realm of seven Children of Fortune—it brims with luck."
At the edge of the universe, a colossal entity quietly returned.
The surging fortune it exuded was astonishing.
Xu Yuan noticed the return of the Great God Circle.
In fact, he not only noticed but had foreseen it long ago.
"In my past life, Tang San was the Asura God, secretly integrating into the divine position through possession."
Learning some information from the fortune threads, Xu Yuan marveled at Tang San's luck.
No wonder he possessed the Asura God position.
"According to my personality, I should have hunted you down. Even within the black hole, I could have killed you and left." Xu Yuan thought, "But even if you develop fully, what can you do?"
Against Xu Yuan, even a Supreme God King had no chance of turning the tables.
The day after Xu Yuan noticed the Great God Circle, others in the Heavenly Origin God Realm belatedly sensed the massive 'God Realm.'
"How is this possible?"
Sheng Xin exclaimed.
"How can there be another such colossal God Realm!"
The Great God Circle's scale was nearly on par with the Heavenly Origin God Realm.
Such an exaggerated size capable of reaching the Douluo Universe indicated it was a native God Realm!
But how was this possible?
Did the Douluo Universe harbor another powerful God Realm?
Sheng Xin froze, recalling a possibility.
Could this be the former Douluo God Realm?
She looked toward Yun Ming above the Order Temple.
Others also realized the issue and turned their gaze to Yun Ming, the God of Order.
Yun Ming remained silent, standing calmly in the air, gazing indifferently at the direction of the Great God Circle's appearance. His calm demeanor reassured the other gods, and the restless God Realm quickly settled. Regardless of who ruled this area in the past, the orthodox God Realm here was now the Heavenly Origin God Realm!
Great God Circle.
Tang San gazed at the flourishing Heavenly Origin God Realm, his eyes revealing a murderous intent. The killing intent was so intense it materialized into crimson energy around him.
The God Kings of the other six God Realms frowned.
This Tang San, after seizing all the power of the Great God Circle, had become like this. For now, they could only suppress their anger.
Because they couldn't win.
The leaking crimson energy made their hearts race.
Tang San now appeared as a killing machine, honed through countless massacres. Who knew how many lives he had slaughtered to cultivate such dense killing intent.
"Xu Yuan, your blood debt shall be repaid in blood!"
Tang San maneuvered the Great God Circle closer to the core of the Douluo Universe and personally stepped out, challenging the Heavenly Origin God Realm.
"Thief who stole my God Realm's position, now that the Great God Circle has returned, surrender immediately!"
Tang San's voice reverberated, even influencing the subordinate planes through the God Realm.
In the subordinate planes, especially Douluo Planet, many soul masters seemed to recall the legendary Sea God from history.
"Despicable tactics."
Xu Yuan commented lightly, stepping out of the God Realm.
Facing Tang San, now shrouded in dense killing intent, Xu Yuan extended his right hand, conjuring a spear from the void.
The aura exuded by the Primordial Spear far surpassed that of a super divine artifact, possessing properties akin to chaos. It had transcended the level of super divine artifacts, entering the Chaos realm.
Tang San's pupils contracted violently.
What level was this?
How come the concentration of Chaos energy was so dense?
Was this the incomplete dispersion of refined Chaos energy?
But if even refining chaos energy was incomplete, how could it pose such an intense threat?
Tang San, resonating with his past life, had limited information and knew nothing of the details of Xu Yuan dragging his past life into chaos.
"I possess the Sea God position integrated with the Slaughter God position, equivalent to half-step dual Supreme Gods. Even if Xu Yuan becomes Supreme and wields a Supreme-level super divine artifact, I can still kill him!"
"Do you know why I gave you the chance to become a Supreme God King again?" Xu Yuan said indifferently.
One sentence interrupted Tang San's thoughts.
Tang San looked at Xu Yuan, puzzled.
What do you mean you gave me the chance?
"It seems you don't even understand why you had this time." Xu Yuan shook his head.
The Primordial Spear in his hand was already pointed.
An endless surge of chaos energy erupted.
In an era where chaos energy reigned supreme, Xu Yuan casually mobilized such immense chaos energy.
The entire void dimension was stirred, laws were disrupted, seemingly assimilated by chaos, and even time and space grew blurry.
Tang San's expression changed drastically.
His intuition, honed through endless killing, screamed warnings.
Escape!
He had overestimated himself.
He couldn't comprehend why there was such a vast gap between Supreme God Kings.
In his script, the two sides would engage in a fierce battle, and he would use the backup plans left from his past life to reclaim legitimacy, restoring the God Realm to its rightful place and gradually grinding down Xu Yuan's Heavenly Origin God Realm.
The chaos energy surged violently, engulfing Tang San.
Behind Tang San, the Eight Spider Legs split apart, merging into the Asura God Sword in his hand, unleashing a crimson sword qi.
Alas, it was all in vain.
Chaos energy reduced everything to its primordial state, swallowing the crimson sword qi.
Tang San couldn't even stir up waves.
Witnessing this, the God Kings present were all stunned.
A Supreme God King… fell just like that?
This shouldn't be possible.
Even Blood Demon and the original Phoenix God swallowed nervously, feeling how unfamiliar Xu Yuan had become after three years.
Is the Chaos realm really this terrifying?
Does it still allow limitless growth even when involving chaos?
Xu Yuan retracted his spear, gazed at the Great God Circle, and with a wave of his hand, merged it into the Heavenly Origin God Realm.
Sharing the same origin, the two quickly fused.
Yun Ming took a deep breath and began overseeing the fusion process.
As the Heavenly Origin God Realm's scale expanded once more, his Order God position finally reached its limit.
At this point, he had to consider whether to pursue the path of a Supreme God King or, like Xu Yuan, attempt to delve into chaos.
"The Great God Circle arrived just in time."
Xu Yuan looked at the six God Kings of the Great God Circle. After negotiating with them, he initiated the Divine Star plan.
In the universe.
The Heavenly Origin God Realm, resembling a blazing sun in higher dimensions, suddenly grew scorching and began expanding.
Then, this blazing sun seemed to start descending.
Laws fluctuated, and the universe's space trembled. The entire universe seemed to enter its end days.
"Chaos invasion, blurred universal laws, and the assistance of the Great God Circle—if this isn't enough to succeed, then the Divine Star is likely only theoretical."
The Heavenly Origin God Realm rapidly descended, falling into the Douluo Plane.
Fang Yuan activated the Reincarnation Divine Position, merging the God Realm with the Douluo Plane. The reincarnation system within Douluo Plane was officially activated, cycling Yin and Yang.
Douluo Plane, at this moment, became the true core of the universe, connecting with all parts of the cosmos through its breathing rhythm.
The Reincarnation Divine Position surged, transforming into a Supreme Divine Position.
Fang Yuan detached from this divine position, embedding it into the essence of the Douluo Plane, thoroughly completing the fusion between Douluo Planet and the Abyss.
With this foundation, the Heavenly Origin God Realm finally stabilized, merging into the Douluo Plane.
"The Divine Star is stable, and all grudges have been settled. I should leave."
Xu Yuan looked at Fang Yuan.
"Aren't you leaving too?"
Fang Yuan smiled bitterly.
"I'm not leaving—I'm disappearing. My mission should be complete."
As he spoke, he began to dissipate, his traces erased conceptually, a familiar sensation to Xu Yuan.
This was the power of chaos!
"Fang Yuan wasn't a reincarnation of a Supreme God King but a figure from chaos experiencing this realm."
Realizing the truth, Xu Yuan was astonished.
So, within chaos, could one freely experience various universes?
"I advise you to think carefully. Chaos is truly desolate. Wandering through the boundless universe for endless eons, even the firmest will and the most perfect Dao can become lost."
Fang Yuan's words fell into Xu Yuan's ears but didn't sway his resolve.
"Very well. I hope we meet again in other worlds."
Fang Yuan vanished completely.
Xu Yuan took a deep breath, bid farewell to his friends and family, left the Primordial Spear as an anchor, and departed from the universe.
Time in chaos was unknowable.
For Xu Yuan, it wasn't torment. He delved into his Will Realm, witnessing the golden age's myriad races vying for supremacy within his own realm.
Finally, amidst the ebb and flow of chaos, Xu Yuan sensed the presence of existence.
"This is… a new world?"
Xu Yuan extended a wisp of will, probing into this world.
After an unknown period, his will returned, bringing the highest cultivation experience of this world.
And the highest cultivation level of this world was—Supreme God King!
"Douluo Universe!"
Why was it another Douluo Universe?
Xu Yuan awoke, startled from his Will Realm.
Was this boundless chaos filled with endless iterations of the Douluo Universe?
If so, had he truly transcended, or had he entered a true prison?
"There should be other worlds."
Xu Yuan knew that in chaos, will was paramount. There might be countless identical worlds because upon the birth of a universe, the emergence of life would generate will, potentially radiating outward and filling the surrounding chaos with similar universes.
He continued wandering through chaos.
Time in chaos was unknowable.
Back and forth, Xu Yuan experienced nine Douluo Universes, becoming a Supreme God King nine times. The completely different cultivation experiences repeatedly nurtured his Will Realm, extending the golden age again and again.
He also encountered fellow travelers, though he didn't meet the Zhen Shenbei martial soul Fang Yuan again. Instead, he met a sword martial soul child of fortune who eventually walked the path of the Reincarnation God King.
There was also another person holding a book whom Xu Yuan encountered multiple times, always experiencing the world through a book martial soul.
But Xu Yuan consistently walked the path of will, which was why he always awakened gradually after becoming a god, realizing his origins.
"Boundless chaos, when will I find a different world?"
Could it be…
Was the chaos truly filled with infinite Douluo Universes?
Even Xu Yuan, who primarily cultivated will, began to waver slightly.
"Being and non-being, non-being and being—have I truly grasped non-being, or am I still stuck on being?"
Xu Yuan witnessed the ninth iteration of the myriad races' struggle for supremacy in his Will Realm.
"Perhaps, instead of searching for worlds within chaos, I should attempt to transcend chaos once more."
