...God Realm, Central Great Hall.
Mist swirled, and celestial music drifted through the air.
Although for the Mortal Realm, it was a long ten years, enough for beauties to age and Dynasties to change, for the God Realm, it was but a mere ten days.
Xuan Ming stretched and sat back down on the divine throne that symbolized supreme power.
In these ten days, he could be said to have given his all until the very end. From Xiao Wu's Spirit Star to Qian Renxue's Mortal Realm trip, then to the deep-sea revelry with the Ice Dragon King and Zi Ji, and finally even Zhu Zhuqing, the Ice Empress... after this full rotation, even with his Physique, he felt a bit mentally fatigued.
Fortunately, although these ladies were a bit "hungry," they knew where to draw the line and understood the principle of not over-exhausting a resource, letting him return once they had nearly drained him.
"Phew... finally some peace."
Xuan Ming let out a long breath and looked at Bibi Dong, who was nearby processing data from the God Realm Core.
Today, she was still clad in her dark red Asura God armor, noble and cold. Her method of handling official business was crisp and efficient, carrying the demeanor of the Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff from years ago, but with more of the composure of someone controlling the heavens.
"Dong'er."
Xuan Ming asked, "How has the expansion of the God Realm been these past few days? Have you encountered any troublesome troublemakers? For instance, those reckless, unknown God Realms that have issues with our annexation plan?"
The great god circle plan was the God Realm's current strategy. The goal was to integrate surrounding Universe planes to strengthen the God Realm's Foundation to deal with higher-level crises that might appear in the future.
Hearing Xuan Ming's question, the movement of Bibi Dong's hand paused slightly, and then she said without raising her head:
"Trouble? What trouble could there be?"
"We did indeed encounter a few unknown God Realms with God Kings presiding over them before. Their attitudes were quite arrogant, and they refused to merge into the Great God Circle."
"And then?" Xuan Ming asked.
"And then?"
Bibi Dong recalled, "Then I had Destruction and Life lead a team over there. Destruction was responsible for beating their God Kings half to death, and Life was responsible for healing them, then beating them again, and healing them again."
"After three rounds, they were crying and shouting to join our warm big family."
"Now, those God Realms have completely integrated into the territory of the Great God Circle."
Xuan Ming: "..."
These methods were indeed very Bibi Dong, and very Destruction.
"As for now..."
Bibi Dong finally put down the documents in her hand, turned around, and looked at Xuan Ming with a hint of helplessness and amusement in her eyes.
"There are no new targets for the time being. Even if there were, there would be no need for you, the Supreme God, to act personally."
"Do you have some misunderstanding of the concept of a God King?"
Bibi Dong stepped forward, poured a cup of the God Realm's specialty Celestial Dew for Xuan Ming, and leisurely explained:
"Don't think that God Kings are some common goods found on the side of the road. In the vast Universe, the peak of power that most planes can support is the First-level Main God; even a Main God is extremely difficult to give birth to, and Second-level Gods are the norm. Planes capable of producing a God King are themselves as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns."
"In the past God Realm, if it weren't for the emergence of you and Gu Yuena, two Supreme Gods who forcibly raised the God Realm's Foundation by several dimensions, according to normal natural evolution, the God Realm wouldn't have produced a new God King even after another tens of thousands of years."
"Furthermore, among God Kings, there are also differences."
"Like Kindness, Evil, Destruction, Life, and myself, who holds the dual God Positions of Asura and Rakshasa and acts as the Enforcer God in charge of judgment and depravity—we are top-tier God Kings who control the Universe's Origin Laws."
"The few of us belong to the absolute elite within the God King Realm. If the five of us joined forces, we would even be sufficient to contend with a Supreme God."
"But look at those God Kings from those wild God Realms outside."
Bibi Dong shook her head disdainfully, "Most of them barely promoted by accumulating time or devouring their own kind. For that sort, although their Realm has reached the level, their Law comprehension and actual combat ability are not on the same level as ours at all."
"For those types, even if they are at the same level, we can just send any two God Kings from our side to rub them into the ground."
"To put it plainly."
Bibi Dong walked behind Xuan Ming and gently massaged his shoulders, her tone carrying a hint of pride.
"In this Universe, enemies who can defeat me are already hard to find."
"Let alone... enemies who can contend with you."
"Supreme God..."
Bibi Dong's fingers applied a bit of pressure, feeling the unfathomable power within Xuan Ming's body.
"The conditions for the birth of this thing are harsh to the extreme. Aside from the former Dragon God, there is only you now."
"You are our ultimate trump card."
"If you had to personally take action just to beat a few small thugs, then what would be the use of us God Kings? To eat for free?"
Hearing Bibi Dong's domineering analysis, Xuan Ming laughed involuntarily.
"Indeed."
He was being too sensitive.
Having grown accustomed to the days of being an enemy to the whole world and being cautious at every step, he was actually a bit unaccustomed to suddenly becoming invincible.
"How many First-level Main Gods can the current energy reserves support?"
Xuan Ming enjoyed Bibi Dong's massage, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked casually, "Also, for those newly promoted Divinities, how much has the God Realm's carrying capacity limit increased?"
Bibi Dong's hands didn't stop. After thinking for a moment about the data from the core, she gave a precise answer.
"Compared to before you fell into slumber, the God Realm's capacity has nearly doubled."
"And with the continuous expansion of the Great God Circle and the Fusion of more and more planes, this limit is increasing every day. According to the current growth rate, even if there were a dozen more First-level Main Gods, the God Realm could easily digest them."
Speaking of this, Bibi Dong suddenly stopped her hands, leaned down, and said with a bit of teasing in her tone:
"What? Asking this all of a sudden... have you taken a fancy to some young girl from another plane again and want to give her special treatment by bringing her up?"
Xuan Ming rolled his eyes helplessly, "In your eyes, am I only capable of thinking about such things?"
"Otherwise?" Bibi Dong said matter-of-factly, "As soon as you returned, you spent a round with everyone, treating the God Realm like a transit station and the Mortal Realm like a den of pleasure. It's hard not to suspect your motives."
Xuan Ming coughed twice and decided to skip this dangerous topic, saying seriously:
"I'm talking about that kid from Douluo Star, Huo Yuhao."
"Huo Yuhao?" Bibi Dong straightened up, looking thoughtful, "That child is indeed not bad. Although his methods were a bit radical, he did indeed clean up the mess you left behind. The current Douluo Federation, after that bloodbath, although its Origin Qi was greatly damaged, can be considered to have scraped the bone to cure the poison and returned to the right track."
"Right track?"
Xuan Ming shook his head, "It looks like it's back on the right track now, but what about the future?"
"You and I both know that Mortal systems can never escape a Reincarnation. There are policies from above and countermeasures from below."
"Huo Yuhao is still there now, holding major weapons like the dark blood demon and Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus, so those with vested interests naturally don't dare to move and can only obediently listen. But what if one day Huo Yuhao achieves Ascension? Or if he retires like Ning Fengzhi and the others did back then?"
"God knows what Douluo Star will become in the future."
Xuan Ming sighed, "Once a power vacuum appears, corruption and greed will grow like weeds. How great were Ning Fengzhi's methods back then? What was the combat strength of Chen Xin and Gu Rong? They suppressed the Federation for thousands of years, yet as soon as they left, the Federation began to rot."
"Although Huo Yuhao's Soul Spirit System is advanced, if it isn't regulated, it might not avoid becoming another tool for oppressing Spirit Beasts or being monopolized by certain forces in the future."
"So..."
Xuan Ming looked at Bibi Dong, "I was thinking, since that kid cares so much about Douluo Star and is a child of destiny, why not... just leave Douluo Star for him to manage."
"Let him become a god, and then let him be the permanent guardian of Douluo Star."
"Just like how Posey guarded Sea God Island back then, let him always keep an eye on that continent. With a god hanging over their heads, the people below will generally be a bit more honest."
After listening, Bibi Dong nodded slightly and sat back in her chair.
"That's not a big problem."
She pondered for a moment and analyzed from the perspective of a God Realm manager, "As a child of destiny, Huo Yuhao himself carries the will of the Douluo plane. Letting him become a god is not only logical but can also further stabilize Douluo Star's god star Foundation."
"However..."
Bibi Dong changed the subject, pointing out the difficulty.
"Wanting him to take over immediately probably won't be that easy."
