The Wish of the Dragon

Chapter 138:



Chapter 138:

Outside the Eastern Divine Region, the Western Divine Region and the Southern Divine Region were, openly or secretly, paying attention to the Profound God Convention as well.

As for the "forsaken" and "cursed" distant Northern Divine Region, which was called the "Northern Devil Realm" by a large number of people, no one was aware of what it was doing...

The ranking on the very first day had already displayed the splendor of Xia Qingyue's group. They surpassed the rumored "Four God Children of the Eastern Region" in an absolutely striking manner.

Only a select few have already anticipated this outcome but even then it still amazes them.

Some people speculated that they're just lucky but the end result is beyond their expectation... this result made the other region feel restless.

But the thing that stayed the steadiest throughout this session of the Profound God Convention, was none other than the top hundred places in the overall rankings.

Xia Qingyue, Chu Yuechan, Huan Caiyi, Feng Xue'er, Feng Qianhui, etc... from the start until now, it had always been these hundred people occupying the top hundred places. Other geniuses of the profound way of the Eastern Divine Region, who totaled over fifty million, were not even once able to throw them out of their places... Not even the "Four God Children of the Eastern Region" can come close to their score...

The top four ranks often switch places but since they're basically from the same realm, it is automatically disregarded.

Many realms set their gaze on the <Snow Song Realm> and the <Flame God Realm> because of this...

"These group of women is simply a goddess Oh no, no. They're simply a freak, a monster!" One of the participants shouted with a bitter face.

Luo Changseng who's ranked 105th had his fist crackling making a sound like a thunderclap seeing that their disparity is this big... He thought that he can easily achieve the first rank but reality slapped him hard.

Luo Changsheng was the strongest of the Four Divine Children of the Eastern Divine Region. His talent was unique in the entire God Realm as having the divine bloodline from 3 different elemental beast gods.

Wearing white clothes, he looks to be around seventeen to eighteen years old with fresh and clear skin. His feminine looks made him look elegant and also brings some points of delicacy. At first glance, he resembles a literate person.

In reality, he's Arrogant and aloof. He is extremely bad when faced with the prospect of defeat, as he has simply never lost or even been matched before in his entire life.

But here he is being defeated like some random cultivator on the roadside.

Forget catching up to the first rank... he couldn't even surpass the 104th rank!

Luo Changsheng. Origin: Holy Eaves Realm, Soul Orb: 11.948.053, Rank in Battle Zone: 2, Overall Rank: 105.

Su Ling'er. Origin: Snow Song Realm, Soul Orb: 20.356.953, Rank in Battle Zone: 1, Overall Rank: 104.

"Waahh... big sisters are really powerful... But I won't lose! I hope big brother is watching me right now! Ling'er won't let you down, big brother!" Su Ling'er who's participating in the convention let out an amazed voice looking at Xia Qingyue's and the other's score.

She let out a light giggle while hoping that her beloved big brother is watching her right now. She will let him know that she wasn't lazing around during all this time!

Issei who was observing them obviously notice this and he smiled softly at her determination.

Luo Changsheng happens to be in the same battle zone with Chu Yuechan and to say that he's not tempted to just try and fight her would be a lie. But after seeing her might up close, he decided to fall back...

He reassured himself that he's not at his peak back then since he just killed some profound beasts himself...

While in reality... Chu Yuechan herself has been killing profound beasts one after another without any sign of stopping. While others need hours to recover their strength, it only took her half an hour at most...

While Luo Changsheng reaction is the most extreme, the other "Divine Children" has a different reaction.

Jun Xilei for one felt dumbstruck... she started thinking to herself that her master so-called instinct is proven to be right. How can there be such a monster in this world, she thought to herself.

If these girls are this strong... just what kind of existence that could make them so monstrous in the first place? Jun Xilei shuddered fiercely when she thought about it.

There was no doubt that even if there were ignorant and ill-informed people in the Eastern Divine Region, who had never heard of the <Song Song Realm> and the <Flame God Realm>, no one would not know of the name of the top hundred participants...

Not only because each and every one of them is extremely beautiful but also because of their extraordinary splendor during the convention...

To an existence of Luo Changsheng's "level", every person on the battlefield he stood upon, was just prey that he could slaughter whenever he wished. Those ten million-odd soul orbs had piled up at the cost of innumerable deaths of his prey.

And inside his battlefield, only Chu Yuechan who he hasn't been able to "kill"...

After a while, the sky above became turbulent all of a sudden. Soon after, the Voice of Eternal Heaven shook the sky as it resounded throughout the entire battlefield.

"Young experts, there are still two hours before the end of the first round of preliminaries!"

"Only the top ten people from every battlefield can enter the second round of preliminaries. Other profound practitioners will all be eliminated, and their projections will leave the Eternal Heaven Battlefield. Furthermore, their true bodies will also be directly expelled from the Eternal Heaven Realm, and won't be able to step inside again Do not hold back in the least, and use up your all profound strength and will. In this last remaining time, decide your final rank and fate by yourselves."

...

After two hours, The space vibrated and clouds rolled about unrestrainedly. The announcement of the end of the first round of preliminaries by the Voice of Eternal Heaven resounded throughout the place. "Young experts, your battle has come to an end for now. The first round of preliminaries has now concluded. The top ten from every battlefield will continue to remain in their battlefields, and the rest will leave. Your real bodies will appear before the many large teleportation formations outside the Eternal Heaven Realm. We hope that the experience of the intense battle here, into which you poured all your profound strength and will, becomes such a wealth to you that it benefits you throughout your lives."

CLANG!!!

Following the boundless Voice of Eternal Heaven, a white light came falling down from the firmament which blotted out the sky and sun and covered each and every person.

Within the white light, the countless projections that were scattered across the thousand battle zones, no matter whether it was a person or profound beast, dissolved at a rapid rate and disappeared. The curtains fell on the hard battle that had continued for a month at this moment But, that was not the case for everyone.

Because there were still projections of ten thousand profound practitioners that had yet to disappear. They still existed on the battlefields in their perfect state, waiting for the arrival of the next hard battle.

These were the people who had emerged victorious among over fifty million topnotch profound practitioners of the Eastern Divine Region. Every person among them was an undisputed, exceedingly rare genius who was capable of catching the eyes of all under the heavens. Serving as a foil to these ten thousand winners, were those more than fifty million profound practitioners who were eliminated.

When their projections disappeared and they awakened, their bodies were already outside the Eternal Heaven Realm. Under their feet was the screen of light that they had stepped on when approaching the Eternal Heaven Realm earlier. Some distance away, there were teleportation profound formations that could send them back to their respective star realms.

The eliminated ones would naturally not get much attention from the masses. Their gazes were all firmly focused on the next competition that was bound to be even more fierce.

The fierce fighting sounds disappeared, and the roars and howls of profound beasts completely faded too. The entire battlefield had become quiet.

"Young experts who are still left on the battlefield, you used your strength and will to prove yourselves. There is no doubt that you are the pride of the Eastern Divine Region, and its future as well. But, only a thousand people will obtain the qualification to enter the Eternal Heaven Pearl and experience three thousand years within the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm."

"The next battlefield will be the place to determine these thousand people!"

Hearing the Voice of Eternal Heaven, all the profound practitioners who were still left on the battlefield felt their blood boiling. Outside the battlefield, those who were eliminated, as well as those who didn't have the qualifications to participate in the Profound God Convention, felt utter envy, jealousy, and longing in their hearts.

It was the first time, in the entire history of the Eastern Divine Region, the opportunity to cultivate in the Eternal Heaven Pearl had been offered. It could help a profound practitioner to ascend from the "infancy stage" to the land of miracles in a step! Any profound practitioner, who had even the tiniest bit of desire to pursue the profound way, would definitely be unable to resist such a favor!

To get such an opportunity, they wouldn't hesitate to be badly battered. No price would be spared for it, even if it meant losing half their lifespans!

"In the next round, you all will be sent to the same battlefield. In this battlefield, there will be no natural calamities, profound beasts, or anything else that will hinder your way. The only things present over there are the safe main city and your very own battlefield. The rules will be reset, but they will remain the same as in the previous battlefield. The soul orbs in your possession will also be brought into the new battlefield along with you."

"No more than a thousand people can emerge victorious in the new battlefield. These thousand heaven-chosen children will be sent to the Eternal Heaven God Realm, where the final battle will take place. After the final battle, they will then enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm where your fates will undergo a change in the next three years. The other nine thousand people will be eliminated from the battlefield, and their true bodies will also be expelled out of the Eternal Heaven God Realm."

Issei frowned a little when he heard the announcement. Three years? It is taking longer than he expected... He decided that he will take a look at this <Eternal Heaven Pearl> and see if he can tinker a little bit with it...

If not, he can just make the whole realm affected by his own time manipulation... Others will still think that three years have passed but in reality, only three days have passed.

With the original creator of this world by his side and him capable of utilizing her power as he pleases, this kind of feat is quite easy for Issei.

After all, he has truly become the <True Chaos Godking>!

Nyarlathotep never bothered with the "Mark" she left inside Issei any longer since it seems that the result has backfired already. She lost the little "contest" she had with Issei not that she will admit that...

Unknown to her, Issei has already tinkered with the "Mark" long ago making it useless from the start... well, kinda...

As the girls steeled their hearts, a light beam descended from the sky, which made everything before their eyes turn white at once. Afterward, they appeared in a brand-new world.

The ground here was flat and dried-up, and it was spacious and empty as far as they could see, with only some short mountains faintly visible in the distance. The air was calm and windless, and they could not sense or hear any auras or roars of profound beasts.

"Young experts, welcome to the second battlefield." The Voice of Eternal Heaven slowly resounded throughout the place once again. "Do remember that the rules here will be completely the same as your first battlefield. The soul orbs you have at the beginning of the second round are the gains from your first battlefield. But, you can only stay here for three days times. The final quantity of soul orbs you have after three days will be the deciding factor for your rank in the second round."

The time period of three days made the other profound practitioners either frown or tense up. It was simply too short of a duration for them. Undoubtedly, it would raise the intensity of the battle to an extreme point. As there were just seventy-two hours available to them, they would be busy fighting and robbing others at almost every instant.

"The competition has begun now. You young experts, who shoulder the future of the Divine Eastern Region, give your all and decide your final fate on this battlefield!"

The far-reaching voice caused waves in the firmament, which took a long time to disperse, little by little.

The second round of the preliminaries also officially began at this moment.

Compared to the tremendous figure of fifty million in the first round of preliminaries, the scale of this competition with only ten thousand people seemed particularly small. But, no one would doubt that the intensity of this competition would be far, far higher than the first one.

In the first round, all participating profound practitioners had initially appeared in different safe main cities, but in this round, the profound practitioners were apparently sent to random locations around the battlefield.

The instant the start of the competition was announced, countless profound auras erupted inside the battlefield as they immediately began to search for and lock onto their prey.

...

As the second round of preliminaries began, the calm in the Eternal Heaven Realm finally came to an end.

All the experts of the Eastern Divine Region, who were invited to watch the competition, left their residences as well, as they flew to the same place.

It was the center of the Eternal Heaven God Realm, Eternal Heaven City, where the Eternal Heaven God Emperor and the "guardians" lived. It was known to everyone as the sacred ground among sacred grounds.

Towering fifteen thousand kilometers into the firmament, the Eternal Heaven Divine Tower was also located right at the center of Eternal Heaven City. Underneath it was the location of the holiest thing in the Eastern Divine Region, the Eternal Heaven Pearl.

Besides the Eternal Heaven Tower was one hundred fifty kilometers wide "Conferred God Stage." It was named so because those who could contend for the championship on it, would absolutely have the qualifications to "be conferred the title of God."

This "Conferred God Stage" had also been the final battlefield for the previous sessions of the Profound God Convention. In the convention this time too, thirty-two children who had earned "the conferred title of God," would appear after the third round of preliminaries. Afterward, the final "Conferred God Battle," would take place on this Conferred God Stage.

There was an incomparably huge area around the Conferred God Stage, where seats were set up for the people that would be watching the battle. Though the seating area was huge, it always remained empty. Because not even one in a hundred million people of the Eastern Divine Region could have the honor of watching the battle from those seats.

On this day, the Conferred God Stage, which had been silent for a long time, welcomed the most bustling day in several hundred years.

A large number of figures flew over from different directions. The cultivation of every person was more astonishing than the last, but in this Eternal Heaven City, they had all restricted their profound auras and were even flying at a particularly slow pace.

When all the profound practitioners arrived, they carefully avoided the seats on the eastern side. Let alone flying past them from the sky above, they didn't even dare to get near that area.

It undoubtedly manifested the absolute power and deterrence of the king realms.

As more and more people flew over, the seats on the three sides were no longer as empty as before. The Eternal Heaven Realm had always been particularly "stingy" with the invitations. If the number of people that all the upper star realms could bring were to be added together, the total figure would not exceed 1.4 million.

The number of the middle star realms was several times that of the upper star realms, but their total people amounted to less than a million.

The lower star realms had the greatest numbers in the Eastern Divine Region, but they had the fewest number of people invited, which was only a few hundred thousand.

But there was no doubt that every person who could come here was the highest level individual in their respective star realms, a realm king or an overlord, someone with an honorable identity or otherwise extremely high standing.

However, these individuals who would look down on all in their respective star realms, were discreet in word and deed when they arrived at the Eternal Heaven Realm, and there were no signs of their imposing attitudes. The Conferred God Stage had become the venue for the gathering of experts, but there was complete silence. Until the King realms arrived, no one made any noise.

As the king realms hadn't arrived yet, the upper star realms were naturally the highest existences among them. The people from upper star realms on the northern side were looking at the seating area on the southern and western sides.

The lower star realms, as the bottom level existence in this place, were undoubtedly acting in the most careful of manners, but they didn't feel any resentment or dissatisfaction towards the attitude of the star realms with higher status than them. Rather, they found it to be only natural and reasonable. This was a world where the strong were respected, so in front of the upper star realms and middle star realms, people like them who originated from the lower star realms could only be humble.

"Feixue and others should have already gone back to the Snow Song Realm," in the seating area for the Snow Song Realm, Mu Huanzhi said nonchalantly. It seemed that he wasn't really in a bad mood. Feixue's rank was still close to the top three hundred thousand by the end of the first round of preliminary competition, which was far, far better than his expectations. He was naturally extremely glad.

"And it looks like those splendid girls will steal the spotlight yet again." Huo Rulie added to which the others nodded in agreement.

"Don't you think so as well, young lord?" Huo Rulie said with a big grin. He's happy that his personal disciple managed to enter the top two hundred rank and to top it off, his two realm king is at the top five! How can he not feel happy about this whole thing!?

"Hm? Oh, right." Issei nodded after a little bit of delay.

"...Something is on your mind, young master?" Mu Bingyun asked softly. She can discern that Issei seems to be out of focus as of lately...

"No... Nothing much." Issei shook his head at her question. He was not really out of focus because of something bad but he just feels a bit happy since he will be able to return home soon... and while he's at it, he might as well wipe out that "crimson calamity" or whatever.

Issei is seated comfortably in his seat while he's inhaling through his smoking pipe.

Mu Bingyun who's seated next to him felt really comfortable... whether it's because of his smoke or was it because of his presence, only she knows for sure...

"Sect Master Huo, the sound transmission from the Eternal Heaven Realm mentioned that we'll be discussing a major event related to the future of the Eastern Divine Region. Have you heard of something about it?" Mu Huanzhi asked Huo Rulie, who was present and not that far away.

The seating area of Snow Song and the Flame God Realms were adjacent to each other, but unlike the mild atmosphere in the area of the former, the two great sect masters, elders, and the disciples following them all had rosy complexions and an unusual shine in their eyes. Even Yan Juehai, who had the greatest control over his emotions among them, was grinning from ear to ear.

As for Huo Rulie, his mouth was opened very wide in a smile and didn't close even once. If a passerby were to see him at this time, they wouldn't believe that he was actually a sect master of a middle star realm, even if they were beaten to death. It would be surprising if they didn't consider him someone with a mental disorder.

He completely missed Mu Huanzhi's question too, as he continued to grin like a fool. When his gaze came into contact with those from the upper star realms, not only did he not avert his gaze, but he even faced them with an upright and unafraid attitude.

This daddy's disciple entered the top two hundred rankings of the whole Eastern Divine Region in the preliminary competition! He held on and beat at least eighty percent of you upper star realms! And this daddy's two realm king is even more monstrous! Why would this daddy still be fearful of you!?

Yan Juehai glanced at Huo Rulie, before answering with a smile in his place, "We haven't gotten any information, either. However, we should find out soon."

"Quite a bit of time has passed since the start of the second round of preliminaries. I expect that this battle is going to be extremely fierce as participants will be competing to be one of those thousand <Heaven Chosen Children>." Mu Huanzhi said. "It's a pity that we don't have any star tablets here and won't be able to see the situation on the battlefield."

"I offer my congratulations and gratitude once again, young lord." He added while cupping his hand at Issei.

Only because of him that their realm could experience this kind of experience. Even when they're seated right now, the other realms whether they be elder or sect master themselves keep glancing at their direction with an inquiring look.

Some hold envious and jealousy but the rest is awe and amazement.

This session of the Profound God Convention was different from the previous ones. As a result of all kinds of unusual movements by the Eternal Heaven God Realm, as well as the rumors that had started to spread around a very long time ago, the people present at this place had a faint guess of the "major event" that the Eternal Heaven Realm had mentioned.

A long while passed before three human figures appeared on the horizon all of a sudden, who was flying over to the Conferred God Stage. As they drew closer, they elicited several low shouts.

"It's the three elders from the Heavenly Mystery Realm!"

The three people were quite old and had white hair and beards, and they were clad in identical jade-colored, long robes.

These three old people were very renowned existences of the Eastern Divine Region, whose words carried the greatest weight in the Heavenly Mystery Realm.

Mo Yu, Mo Wen, Mo Zhi.

"Heavenly Mystery Realm is finally here, but it looks as if only three people have come?" Mu Tanzhi said.

"Haha, all of the three elders of Heavenly Mystery Realm have arrived. Is there any need for more?" Mu Huanzhi said with a smile.

The three elders of the Heavenly Mystery Realm flew over to the sky above the Conferred Stage, and gave a slight nod to everyone in greeting. Afterward, all the people looked on in surprise as they landed in the seating area on the eastern side.

"The seating area on the eastern side? They actually intend to sit over there? This" The experts from all the star realms stared at each other, shocked and befuddled.

Heavenly Mystery Realm might have a special standing among the upper star realms, and in particular, the three elders of the Heavenly Mystery Realm were quite revered, even by the realm kings of the four great king realms, but the eastern side of the seating area had always been reserved for the king realms. Not once had the Eternal Heaven Realm made an exception. It was really too surprising for them to be allowed to take seats in the eastern seating area.

"It seems that the 'major event' this time is certainly related to the Heavenly Mystery Realm, huh," Yan Juehai said. He was lost in thoughts, as he recalled the rumor from several years ago whose authenticity was hard to ascertain.

It was at this time that Huo Rulie said suddenly, "Earlier, I heard by chance that because of violating the teachings of their ancestor and peeping too much into the mysteries of heaven, the three elders of the Heavenly Mystery Realm suffered a heavy loss to their lifespans as punishment from heaven, and the three of them have merely less than a hundred years left to live."

"Before I thought of it as a baseless rumor, but looking at their conditions now" Perceiving the clearly abnormal aura of life force from the three elders of the Heavenly Mystery Realm from far, far away, Huo Rulie slowly nodded his head. "It appears to be true."

Rather than having a punishment from the so-called "heaven", it's more accurate to say that they overestimate themselves and used a skill beyond their capabilities that took their lifespan in the process, Issei thought to himself when he saw these three elders.

After arriving, all three elders sat down quietly with closed eyes, and didn't utter a word, which made them look like withered trees.

An hour passed by, and then the wind blowing across the Conferred God Stage came to a sudden halt.

The clouds that were carefreely drifting in the sky also became still in this moment, after which they slowly rippled like waves. A dull and moderate field of aura, that felt like a soft breeze brushing past the body, slowly approached from the distance, little by little.

In a twinkling, the whole Conferred God Stage became silent. It was as if all the voices were engulfed into some space crack. In the next instant, all the people of the many star realms on each side of the seating area stood up at the same time. Those young profound practitioners who were still in a daze were also quickly pulled up by their seniors.

"Haha, this old man has come late, and made everyone wait so long."

Amidst the swirling cloud and mist, the figure of an old person suddenly emerged out of the blue. He was in quite simple and plain gray clothes, and looked kind and amiable. There was a faint, breezy smile on his face, as he gradually descended from the sky.

It was this very old person, who seemed particularly ordinary and gentle, whose arrival made all the overlords of the Eastern Divine Region look up to him with shining eyes, and bend their bodies as they greeted together.

"We pay respect to the Eternal Heaven God Emperor!"

They cried in incomparable unison. No profound strength had been used, but it still immediately shook the firmament. The young profound practitioners who had followed behind their seniors to here were so shaken that their hearts thumped loudly in fright and their souls trembled.

EternalHeavenGodEmperor!?

He is the Eternal Heaven God Emperor? One of the four realm kings of the great king realms, and the highest ruler of the Eternal Heaven God Realm!?

They had been looking forward to this day for a long time now, but when this myth truly appeared before their eyes, they felt an extremely strong sense of unreality For a while, they found it hard to believe that they were personally seeing this individual, who only existed in myth.

There were a thousand people following closely behind the Eternal Heaven God Emperor. The aura field around these thousand people was so vigorous that even the realm kings of the upper star realms didn't dare to look straight at them.

It was because they were the "guardians" and "adjudicators" of the Eternal Heaven God Realm.

Adjudicators were the existence that punished those people or star realms who committed greatly heinous sins.

As for the guardians, although their number was far smaller than the adjudicators, their standing in the Eternal Heaven God Realm and the Eastern Divine Region was equivalent to the Star Gods of the Star God Realm and Moon Gods of the Moon God Realm. Each and every one of them was a terrifying expert that even the realm kings of the upper star realms would have to bow their heads to. Besides the Eternal Heaven Pearl, they were the strongest power, as well as the most important cornerstone, of the Eternal Heaven God Realm.

"Everyone has come from afar and has also waited for a whole month. It must have been very tough. Please take your seats, there is no need for such civility." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor lightly landed at the main seat of the eastern seating area. He had a faint smile as he raised his hand in greeting. There was not the slightest sign of overbearingness in his attitude or words, and his pupils, which showed age within them from the beginning, were also deep and limpid, like pools of clear water.

After the arrival of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor with his guardians and adjudicators, the atmosphere of the Conferred God Stage thoroughly solidified. No one dared to make even a peep and all eyes were locked onto the Eternal Heaven God Emperor.

As one of the four great emperors of the Eastern Divine Region, someone at the highest echelons of the Primal Chaos, he ought to oppress the entire world with his might and his imposingness should've been godlike. However, no matter which way they looked at him, everyone present simply saw a good-natured old man who couldn't be any more ordinary in terms of temperament and appearance. If they saw him on the streets, they definitely wouldn't take a second glance and would've easily forgotten about him.

What was washing away one's magnificence and returning to a natural and perfect state? Perhaps, that could be best exemplified by the Eternal Heaven God Emperor.

Although the Eternal Heaven God Emperor was not the strongest among the Eastern Divine Region's four great emperors, he was nevertheless the most respected. The Eternal Heaven Ancestor had been recognized by the Eternal Heaven Pearl as its master and even after his death it still protected the Eternal Heaven God Realm for many generations. Of course, one of the foremost reasons behind this is the fact that the Eternal Heaven God Realm had always trod the righteous path.

In the countless years of the Eternal Heaven Realm's existence, its adjudicators had punished numerous criminals within the God Realm, saving a vast number of star realms. It was unknown how many generations of people had revered them in gratitude. If there was only one holy land in the Eastern Divine Region, it would undoubtedly be the Eternal Heaven Realm.

If the other king realms, Brahma Monarch God Realm, Star God Realm, and the Moon God Realm became someone's enemy, the Eastern Divine Region would only come to see the festivity while avoiding them to the best of their abilities. However, if anyone were to dare go against the Eternal Heaven God Realm, they would certainly infuriate the public. It was no different than defying natural law.

As such, the Conferred God Stage was quiet. The reason behind it all was not because they feared the Eternal Heaven God Emperor, but because they respected him greatly.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor raised his head and smiled. "Since our esteemed guests have already arrived, please show yourselves."

"Hahahaha!"

At the descent of his voice, hearty laughter reverberated through space. Amidst the laughter, wind surged as an extremely bright beam of starlight dazzled everyone as it shot over, as though a star had descended.

"Hmph!"

At another side, a cold snort had also sounded at the same time. The firmament seemed to have been split open as a pure beam of light which wasn't as glaring sprinkled down, resembling a white moon in the sky.

The moon and star instantly swallowed up all the surrounding light, causing everything below the intersecting beams of light to dim.

"That's"

"The Star God Realm and the Moon God Realm have arrived!"

A human figure slowly walked out of each individual beam of light. The one who came out of the star beam was tall, looked middle-aged. Although he wore a smile on his face, his eyes were like cold stars that none would dare directly gaze at.

Ruler of the Star God Realm, one of the Eastern Divine Region's four great emperors, the Star God Emperor, Xing Juekong!

Issei looks at this newcomer with a glance. So this is Jasmine's father? Hmm... Nothing much, Issei thought to himself.

For a dead man walking he seems quite vigorous...

The one who walked out of the moon beam looked much younger. He was extraordinarily handsome and his immortal looks incited endless reverence and a bit of warmth.

Ruler of the Moon God Realm, one of the Eastern Divine Region's four great emperors, the Moon God Emperor, Yue Wuya!

This second newcomer also isn't spared from Issei ridiculing gaze. The first person is a deadbeat father and husband while the second one is a cuck who has no balls.

Issei gathered a little bit of information here and there and he found out that apparently, this Moon God Emperor is supposed to be the true husband of Xia Qingyue's mother.

But she was attacked by the Brahma Monarch God Realm and when this idiot found out about it, not only did he do nothing, he even pretended that he did not know anything... How pathetic...

Issei started to wonder to himself if Xia Qingyue's mother is either blind or stupid to choose this kind of man in the first place...

It's not like Issei can't understand the reasoning behind her mother's action and he also thinks that Xia Hongyi(Xia Qingyue's father) also shares the blame for taking advantage of a powerless woman who lost her memory and power. But it's not really his business so he won't meddle too much.

He will help Xia Qingyue reunite with her mother and it will be up to the former on what to do later on...

The two god emperors appeared at the same time, clearly with the intent to compete against each other.

Both realms always having been at odds with one another was also something everyone in the Eastern Divine Region knew about.

This was especially true due to the huge scandal that happened in the Moon God Realm thirty or so years ago. Because of Moon God Realm kidnapping Xun'er, their relationship had become even more volatile. If this event didn't concern the future of the whole Eastern Divine Region and wasn't so important that the Eternal Heaven Realm mediated between them, the two realms definitely would not be willing to be present at the same gathering, let alone in the same seating area.

That's only the public knowledge while in fact, Xing Juekong doesn't really care about Xun'er's fate.

When the audience saw the Moon God Emperor, in addition to the feeling of reverence, they naturally would think back to that "scandal." Back then, the fame of his marriage to Yue Wugou, Xia Qingyue's mother who possessed the <Divine Stainless Body> was so great that it also caught the attention of those outside the Eastern Divine Realm. But the greater the occasion, the greater the tragedy.

Yue Wugou disappeared and then she returned without her vital yin. As the stately Moon God Emperor, he had actually suffered a humiliation even the common man would find intolerable, becoming the laughingstock of the entire Eastern Divine Region...

Issei's interest towards these two newcomers is barely discernable but Mu Bingyun who's seated the closest to him can sense his ridiculing gaze.

"Young master? Do you know the two of them?" Mu Bingyun asked out of curiosity.

"Hm? Well, you could say that one of them is bound to die soon." Issei gives a slight chuckle.

Mu Bingyun's body froze for a good while before she asked once again: "...Did they somehow offend you, young master?"

If it was any other person then Mu Bingyun would only think that they're talking big but since it's him they're talking about here then one of them will indeed die just like he said... She's sure of it.

"No, they didn't really offend me but someone I know has something against them," Issei said nonchalantly.

"...I see." Mu Bingyun decided not to ask any further and stay silent. She can only sigh to herself thinking that one of the upper king realms would lose their realm king soon enough...

Is it the Star God Realm or will it be the Moon God Realm? Only the future can tell... Either way, it got nothing to do with her.

She sighed in relief thinking that their realm isn't in Issei bad book or their future will be quite dark...

With the descent of two more god emperors, the atmosphere on the Conferred God Stage froze even further. No one dared to take a deep breath.

Although the Profound God Conventions of the past were always the Eastern Divine Region's greatest occasions related to the profound way, since the four great king realms weren't allowed to participate, aside from the Eternal Heaven Realm that had to host them, the other three king realms would typically send a few elders or palace masters who would bring a group of young disciples. Existences like Star Gods and Moon Gods were rarely seen, let alone the three god emperors.

Now that three of the four god emperors had come, it was possible that the head of the four god emperors, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, would also come. Today's event was certainly of great importance, far beyond what everyone thought it was originally.

The audience members' hearts grew heavier as they became more excited. What kind of honor was it to be able to participate in this kind of event and personally witness the assembly of the four god emperors!?

Both the Star God Emperor and the Moon God Emperor greeted the Eternal Heaven God Emperor at the same time and then swiftly flew to their seats. They did not speak or even make the smallest of eye contact with each other, as though the other party didn't even exist.

The beams of star and moon overhead still had yet to dissipate as a large number of silhouettes appeared, then separated, and quietly fell to sit in their seats. These people were similar to the Eternal Heaven God Realm's guardians and adjudicators, every one of them possessed a terrifying aura. If they were to glance over for a slight moment, one's entire body would most probably turn ice cold.

Today, profound practitioners who have never seen members of the king realms were now aware of how frightening of an existence they truly were. It was not merely the four great emperors, it seemed as though anyone related to the words "king realm" was all incomprehensible monsters.

"The ones sitting next to and behind the Star God Emperor could they be the legendary Star Gods?" a senior Ice Phoenix disciple asked with a tremor in his voice. This was because when he had taken a casual glance over just a moment ago, he felt as though he had suddenly fallen into an abyss. It almost caused all the blood his body to flow backward as he continuously shuddered.

"Yes." Mu Huanzhi nodded and lowered his voice as much as he could. "Out of the twelve Star Gods and twelve Moon Gods, four have respectively come from each realm. This is completely unprecedented."

"No, with the Star God Emperor, five great Star Gods have come," Mu Bingyun corrected.

The Star God Emperor was also one of the Star God Realms' twelve Star Gods. He possessed the power of the Heavenly Chief Star God and since he was the Star God Emperor, he was naturally the strongest out of the twelve Star Gods.

In the Eastern Divine Region, the Star God Realm's twelve Star Gods were absolutely equal to supreme existences like the "True Gods" of the past. Rumors about them were spread across every corner of the Eastern Divine Region and every one of them was true legends.

They were now right before them, causing all the top experts of their individual star realms to tremble inwardly in fright. None dared to look directly at them for long periods of time.

"The Heavenly Slaughter Star God has yet to arrive but the Heavenly Poison Star God has arrived. As expected of the two scariest Star Gods, they could make one feel fear with just a glance from afar."

Mu Bingyun glanced at the Heavenly Poison Star God Mu Huanzhi was referring to and immediately shifted her gaze right after. She secretly peeked at Issei's direction to see his reaction and he didn't disappoint her.

Issei only takes a look for a second before losing interest since Jasmine isn't there yet. He calmly inhaled his smoking pipe once again...

Mu Bingyun unintentionally smiled at his action. He never seem to lose his bearing, isn't he?

Arrogantly sitting behind the seat of the Star God Emperor was a tall woman in a dark green gauze skirt. However, it was half-transparent and her charming body was faintly discernible. From her arms to her shoulders, the silk sleeves were completely transparent, showing off her jade arms and delicate skin.

Two large breasts stood tall and only one layer of cloth bound them together, with more than half swaying and exposed. The deep valley created between the two mounds could cause one to drool in desire.

On the lower part of her body was a shockingly short dark green skirt suffused with a serene light. The skirt barely covered the tops of her thighs and her slender legs were almost bare to the world. They were slender and satiny, the light of her skin making it look like snow. It made one want to simply rush forth to hug and lick it.

It was unknown how many gazes had fallen onto the body of that woman as though they had been attracted by a magnet. Not able to shift their eyes away, all the blood in their bodies had been instantly set aflame. The lust went straight to their heads and some were left dumbstruck with a drooling face, nearly forgetting that this was the Conferring God Stage. The crazy urge to recklessly charge forward, press her onto their bodies, and ruthlessly ravage her was invoked.

That woman, however, didn't seem fazed at all. She allowed the foolish gazes of the public look at her uninhibited exposed body with a faint smile on her red lips. Just like a water hibiscus, her beautiful complexion was filled with a flirty charm.

Once the gazes of the accompanying disciples from both the Snow Song Realm and the Flame God Realm landed on her, they all became stupefied and blushed, as if they had lost their hearts. However, a shout suddenly rang through their minds, "Don't look at her!"

Atop the Conferred God Stage, numerous young profound practitioners looked as though they had been struck by lightning as they turned their gaze away. They were overwhelmed with shock and didn't dare to take a second look at the woman in green.

"M... Master, sh-she's?" the head of a Phoenix Sect disciple was filled with dripping sweat as he asked somewhat fearfully.

"She is the Heavenly Poison Star God," a Phoenix elder said in a low voice.

"W-what? Sh-she's actually." Various disciples from the Flame God Realm shook in fear as they inhaled a long breath.

This beauty who wore clothes even more revealing than a prostitute, who was more seductive than a devil, was actually one of the two scariest of Star Gods.

The one rumored to have poisoned an entire star realm to death in the time of a smile, the heavenly poison demon nicknamed the "Infernal Datura", Moonflower!

"Then that fairy Besides the Heavenly Poison Star God is also a star god?" the same Phoenix disciple asked in a small voice.

Moonflower lowered her head and casually played with her fingers, seemingly unconcerned about everything around her. However, she had not stolen all the radiance from the person beside her.

On her right was a peerless woman that resembled a goddess from heaven. She was not as seductive as Moonflower but her face was utter perfection and far surpassed Moonflower's. It was just that this beautiful face was always ice cold and her beautiful eyes looked on without emotion.

She was as tall and slender as Moonflower with black hair that reached to her waist and was as quiet as a maiden. She was clad in a long pink skirt that added a bit of cuteness? Moonflower and this girl could be said to be a demon and an immortal. Many young profound practitioners that gazed upon her felt as though a fairy had descended. She was so breathtaking that it would inevitably make them feel a sense of inferiority for having wild thoughts.

"Someone able to sit beside the Heavenly Poison Star God is naturally another star god," another Phoenix elder suddenly laughed. "However, he is not a fairy. He is the Heavenly Demon Star God!"

"Ah" The gazes of several Phoenix disciples slackened as their throats became agitated. They were silent for a long while.

Heavenly Demon Star God...

Anyone who had heard of the stories of the twelve Star Gods knew that the Heavenly Demon Star God "Rose", was a man!

Issei who overheard their conversation thought of someone who's from the <Netherworld>. That someone also looks very feminine and that someone sometimes tries to "seduce" him just for fun... which earned a smack from the others.

Issei smiled wryly under his mask when he remembered this person...

"The Heavenly Demon Star God has the strongest mental powers within the twelve Star Gods. As long as he wills it, he could easily turn you all into idiots. Do not randomly look lest you invite trouble."

"Yes," the Phoenix disciples all lowered their heads and no longer dared to look at the other Star Gods. They were increasingly well aware that those were beings they could never comprehend.

"The skinny one to the left of the Heavenly Poison Star God is actually the one with the greatest physical strength out of the twelve Star Gods, the Heavenly Strength Star God, Shenhu."

"The elderly man sitting next to the Star God Emperor is the Heavenly Origin Star God, Tumi. He is the oldest amongst the twelve Star Gods at the age of forty thousand. He is the Star God Realm's wiseman. Before the current Star God Emperor inherited the Star God power, Tumi was his teacher in the profound way. As a result, the Star God Emperor has always respected him greatly and he was the only Star God with the qualifications to sit on the same level as the Star God Emperor."

On the Conferred God Stage, many seniors introduced the Star Gods to their juniors via sound transmission or whisper.

"Hahahaha, my apologies for arriving late, everyone."

There was a loud, candid laugh as the blue sky literally parted in half to admit a tall, straight figure dressed in blue clothing. He had no facial hair, and his hair reached all the way to his waist. His appearance stifled the breaths of everyone in the Conferred God Stage. He might not have released any profound energy, but his mere presence struck fear in the people's hearts and souls all the same. They wanted nothing more than to kowtow before the man who was like a monarch.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor, Star God Emperor, and Moon God Emperor stood up in unison. No one else in the entire Eastern Divine Region had had the honor.

He was the ruler of Brahma Monarch God Realm and head of the four god emperors of the Eastern Divine Region, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor Qianye Fantian.

"Hoho, Eternal Heaven is most honored to welcome you, Brahma Heaven God Emperor. This way, please." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor smiled.

Aha... finally all the main cast has arrived... Issei smirked. Now he only needs to watch the show later on...

Of course, if Jasmine needed his help then he will help her.

"Hahahaha, you're welcome, Eternal Heaven God Emperor. How can I possibly miss such an important occasion?" The Brahma Heaven God Emperor laughed loudly before bowing slightly towards the Star God Emperor and Moon God Emperor as a show of respect.

"Oh? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not seeing see your divine daughter." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor asked.

"She's a naughty girl who has left me a long time ago to spread her wings. Even I don't know where she's having fun right now. She may do as she wishes," the Brahma Heaven God Emperor answered smilingly after he took his seat.

Naturally, the "divine daughter" mentioned by the Moon God Emperor was a matter of great interest to everyone.

The Dragon Queen and Goddess were said to possess three-fifths of the beauty of the entire Primal Chaos Realm.

However, very, very few people in the entire God Realm had the good fortune to meet them in person.

The Dragon Queen was publicly known as the Realm King of the Dragon God Realm and the official wife of the Dragon Monarch, the number one ruler of the Primal Chaos Realm. She was also the Dragon Monarch's official wife. It was rumored that the Dragon Monarch was extremely protective of his wife and doted on her whenever he could, so there was no way he would ever allow mere mortals to witness her beauty.

As for the Goddess, she was the only daughter the Brahma Heaven God Emperor had out of so many children. Rumor says that she was so beautiful that countless venerable Divine Chosen was willing to throw themselves into madness and risk their lives just to win a smile from her...

This included the deceased Heavenly Wolf Star God.

Therefore, the Moon God Emperor might very well have brought up the Goddess on purpose. As a result, the Star God Emperor lost his smile and frowned for a very long time.

Issei knows of the deceased Heavenly Wolf Star God from Jasmine's mouth but he doesn't know about the rest such as their beauty and the like since he doesn't care about this kind of stuff.

He never bothered to investigate this kind of trivial stuff...

The arrival of the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, Eternal Heaven God Emperor, Star God Emperor, and Moon God Emperor, all at the same time, was undoubtedly dreamlike to the cultivators on the Conferred God Stage. They could almost forget that the young experts inside the Eternal Heaven Pearl were battling furiously against one another right now.

The Brahma Heaven God Emperor's gaze swept across the surroundings before he said, "I guess everyone is present already. Let us begin then."

He had just finished saying this when his gaze suddenly turned.

Beside him, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor had stood up and turned in the same direction, smiling. "It looks like we have an unexpected guest."

The masses were just starting to wonder about the Eternal Heaven God Emperor's statement when a loud voice came from the southern part of the sky. "Cang Shitian of the Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm announces his abrupt visit to the Eternal Heaven Realm!"

Waaah!

A commotion instantly erupted above the Conferred God Stage.

"Cang Shitian is he that Cang Shitian, one of the four god emperors of the Southern Divine Region?" Every expert on the Conferred God Stage was shocked by this.

"Why is he here? Was he invited to discuss 'that' important matter too?"

"No, it looks like he came uninvited."

"Royal father, where is this Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm? I've never heard about it until today? And who is this Cang Shitian? Why does everyone look so surprised?"

"The Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm doesn't belong to the Eastern Divine Region. It is a star realm and one of the four king realms of the Southern Divine Region. You can say that it is the Eastern Divine Region to our Eternal Heaven Realm. Cang Shitian is the ruler of this Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm and one of the four god emperors of the Southern Divine Region!"

Cang Shitian's name wasn't unfamiliar to the experts present in this place. After all, he was a god emperor of a god realm! However, almost no one had ever seen him in person until today. After all, the Eastern Divine Region and Southern Divine Region were literally two different worlds, not to mention the various barriers that existed between them. The Star God Realm and Moon God Realm were practically hostile towards the king realms of the Southern Divine Region.

No one thought that Cang Shitian would suddenly show up.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor waved his arms and declared loudly, "The restrictions are down, so please come in, honored guest."

The Eternal Heaven Realm normally maintained a restriction that prevented the entry of normal profound practitioners, but naturally, it couldn't stop someone as powerful as a God Emperor. That being said, not even the uninvited guest Cang Shitian would dare break etiquette and force his way in through the Eternal Heaven Restriction.

"Hahahaha."

There were loud laughter and two faint flashes of light in the air. Then, a person abruptly appeared on the sky of the Conferred God Stage before bowing deeply towards the Eternal Heaven God Emperor. "Shitian humbly apologizes for showing up uninvited. Please forgive me if I have offended you."

Cang Shitian was a tall, large man dressed in soft armor made from profound gold and an oddly shaped cape behind his back. His blue-gold hair was especially striking. Despite being the monarch of a king realm and a god emperor of the Primal Chaos Realm, Cang Shitian was shockingly wild. Even now, he looked as arrogant as ever even though he was in a foreign divine region. It was as if he could never, and would never change the way he carried himself.

"Hoho, I wouldn't mind an honored guest like yourself appearing uninvited in Eternal Heaven Realm every day." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor chuckled. "Oh? Have you come alone, God Emperor Shitian?"

God Emperor Shitian hadn't brought anyone with him. No one could be detected outside the restriction either.

"It is rude enough that I'd come uninvited. Naturally, I dare not impose on my host any more than this." God Emperor Shitian looked at the four god emperors and smiled even wider. "To think that all four god emperors of the Eastern Divine Region would gather in one place! This is truly a rare occasion. I definitely made the right decision to come here."

"Hehe," the Star God Emperor let out an odd-sounding sneer. "Cang Shitian, your cultivation hasn't grown since the last time we met, but your guts have become much bigger than before. Aren't you afraid that this might be the last place you see in your life?"

"Oh no, you flatter me too much." Cang Shitian beamed. "I wouldn't know if my guts have gotten larger or not, but I can definitely tell you that I'm confident in my ability to exit this place alive."

"Hmph!" The Star God Emperor and Moon God Emperor snorted coldly at the same time before looking away.

For once, the Star God Emperor and Moon God Emperor shared the same opinion.

"What does a personal grudge matter before something so important?" the Brahma Heaven God Emperor asked. "God Emperor Shitian, your sudden arrival is spurred by this matter too, right?"

"Of course." God Emperor Shitian nodded. He was just about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.

At almost the same time, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, Star God Emperor, Moon God Emperor and even the eternally calm Eternal Heaven God Emperor turned towards the west with shock in their eyes.

A violent wind surged as clouds become scattered. The entire world suddenly dimmed a little as the blue sky sank rapidly as if it was about to be turned upside down. A voice came from a distant place,

"This dragon of the West has come to pay a visit."

Every word felt like a billion-tonne steel plate that crushed downwards against their bodies and souls. They couldn't breathe, and couldn't think. It was as if the entire world was overwhelmed by that one singular voice.

This terrifying feeling didn't just happen to the weaker, younger profound practitioners. Even the top rate masters of star realms felt the exact same thing. Their shock was even greater than the younger profound practitioners.

In an instant, all five god emperors got up from their seats with solemn expressions on their faces. Even the eternally arrogant God Emperor Shitian hid a trace of fear and respect behind his pupils.

There was only one person in the entire God Realm and Primal Chaos Realm who could strike fear and respect in a god-emperor.

He was the Dragon Monarch!

The fact that all five god emperors had risen into the air caused everyone in the Conferred God Stage to stand up in alarm too. They all looked towards the west in astonishment.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor moved his palms and removed the restrictions. In the next instant, the violent wind suddenly reversed directions to reveal a large, tall man walking slowly toward them.

The air stilled immediately, and the world turned dim. It was as if silence had suddenly descended upon the entire world. Every star realm expert had cocked their heads upwards to look at this newcomer before they realized it.

He was eight feet tall and extremely handsome. His eyebrows were like swords, and every line and pattern on his face were incredibly imposing. His eyes shone like the bright sun itself; a divine light that seemed to have circulated for an infinity of time.

An unprecedented feeling of inferiority and pettiness grew in every person's hearts. There were countless experts in the Eastern Divine Regions, and the strongest experts of the upper star realms were powerful enough to be fearless even in face of a god-emperor or a king realm. But when this man had appeared on the sky, they all suddenly felt like lowly commoners capitulating before a mighty monarch.

They had never felt something like this even when they were facing the Brahma Heaven God Emperor and the Eternal Heaven God Emperor.

"It has been a long time, everyone. Forgive me for arriving uninvited," said the Dragon Monarch with a smile on his face. His words were unusually gentle, but they rammed into one's heart and soul like they were a heavenly decree, reverberating for a long time before gradually dissipating.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor strode forward and clasped his hands together. "Eternal Heaven is infinitely honored to welcome the arrival of the Dragon Monarch. Your apology is entirely unnecessary."

Everyone around him, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, Star God Emperor, Moon God Emperor, and God-Emperor Shitian, clasped their hands and bowed.

Unlike the commotion that had broken out during Cang Shitian's arrival, the Conferred God Stage was dead silent when the name "Dragon Monarch" had appeared.

No one could describe the shock in their own hearts.

The Dragon Monarch was such a being that he was the ruler of the Dragon God Realm, the greatest king realm to exist in the Western Divine Region. He was the greatest cultivator in all divine realms, no, in the entire Primal Chaos Realm, bar none.

The Dragon God Realm he ruled was the absolute king of all realms in the Primal Chaos Realm. The Western Divine Region he resided in was also the strongest of all four divine regions. It was likely that this status couldn't be shaken even if the Eastern Divine Region and Southern Divine Region were to join hands.

The reason the five god emperors acted so respectfully in his presence wasn't just because the Dragon Monarch was absolutely powerful and divine. His seniority and experience far exceeded theirs too.

A human's lifespan couldn't really be considered long compared to all the races in existence. Even those who cultivated to the realm of Divine Master could only enjoy a maximum lifespan of around than fifty thousand years. For example, the Sword Sovereign Jun Wuming was currently the oldest and most senior human cultivator alive.

As for the Dragon Monarch, he was currently three hundred and fifty thousand years old.

He had lived longer than all five god emperors combined.

Dragons were gifted with impossibly strong bodies since birth, and they were literally the race with the greatest talent out of all the races. Humans were far inferior in comparison, not to mention that their lives were much shorter than a dragon's. This was why the Dragon God Realm was the king of all God Realms.

At the same cultivation level, a human was absolutely no match for a dragon. This status quo remained the same even at the God-Emperor level. The Brahma Heaven God Emperor and Eternal Heaven God Emperor might be all-powerful and mighty, but even they couldn't win a battle against the Dragon Monarch, the True Dragon with three hundred thousand years of acquisition under his belt.

That was why the Dragon Monarch was indisputably the greatest cultivator in the entire Primal Chaos. It was the absolute truth in everyone's minds.

His arrival was the arrival of a monarch.

The Dragon Monarch doesn't sense Issei's presence since Issei himself hid his Draconic aura. If Issei were to release his draconic aura right this instant, this Dragon Monarch would undoubtedly kneel on the spot disregarding everything.

While the Dragon Monarch is dubbed as the monarch of the Primal Chaos Realm. Issei is the king of kings! Whether it's Demon, Human, Angels, Devil, Spirits, Dragons, and even Gods, he stands above all else. He's the absolute ruler of the multiverse!

If he ever wishes to, he could erase the whole primal chaos realm in an instant... With only one swing of the <Chaos Slayer>.

"We respectfully welcome the Dragon Monarch!"

Everyone in the Conferred God Stage bowed in courtesy. Personally having witnessed the Dragon Monarch after the gathering of the four god emperors, their astonishment and excitement reached a height at which they almost felt like they could die with no regrets.

"No need to be so polite." The Dragon Monarch smiled and the hand tucked beneath his sleeve lightly pressed downwards.

Everyone present instantly felt a soft breeze press upon their bodies. Under this light wind, their bodies couldn't help but slowly sit back down in their seats.

The crowd of experts felt endlessly shocked yet again This move was hundreds of thousands of times harder than pressing down on others with brute force.

The Dragon Monarch entered the eastern seating area and sat next to the Eternal Heaven God Emperor. This arrangement was only natural to those watching.

"The Dragon Monarch's arrival has given all of us a nice surprise. Is the Dragon Queen well?" the Eternal Heaven God Emperor inquired.

"As well as ever. Thank you for your concern, Eternal Heaven God Emperor." Upon mentioning the "Dragon Queen," a touch of softness that came from the heart emerged on a face that seemed to contain all the majesty in the world.

"It has been over ten thousand years since I was last able to meet with the Dragon Queen. If I could have the honor of both the Dragon Monarch and Queen arriving this time, one of the greatest wishes of my life would be fulfilled."

The Dragon Monarch smiled, "If Brother Eternal Heaven has the time, you may visit our Dragon God Realm. My wife and I wholeheartedly welcome you."

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor cheerfully replied, "Eternal Heaven is absolutely honored to have received your words, Dragon Monarch."

"It seems like the Dragon Monarch is also rather interested in this time's 'great matter.' If I haven't recalled wrongly, this is the first time you have actively made a visit to our Eastern Divine Region." As the Brahma Heaven God Emperor said this, he faintly glanced at God Emperor Shitian.

A bit of seriousness crept onto the Dragon Monarch's face. "I have heard the rumors, but I didn't completely believe it until I heard that your Profound God Convention would be sending one thousand young experts into the Eternal Heaven Pearl for an unprecedented level of cultivation for the next three thousand years."

Then they discussed the matter about the "crimson crack" in the wall...

At some point, Mo Yu, Mo Wen, and Mo Zhi took out a Profound Imagery Formation to show them about their vision.

It was common sense that the Primal Chaos was infinitely vast. They could live for a myriad lifetime and never reach the edge of the Primal Chaos.

However, common sense was different among the denizens of the God Realm. It was because many ancient scriptures during the Era of Gods had mentioned the edge of the Primal Chaos.

They all referred to the edge of the Primal Chaos as the "Wall of Primal Chaos".

However, the Primal Chaos was just too huge. It encompassed an innumerable amount of star realms and an unimaginable amount of space. Even in the God Realm, those who wished to reach the edge of the Primal Chaos must be from an upper star realm or above. No star realms below this level could bear the burden otherwise.

When the image is shown, in an instant, a crack about the height of a person appeared in the screen above the God Conferred Stage.

The entire Conferred God Stage suddenly became covered in crimson light. It was as if a blood downpour had just occurred not long ago. An inexplicable fear swelled in everyone's hearts as they stared at the red crack that looked like it was right above their heads, even though it was obviously just an image on the screen. They felt as if their souls had been pricked by a murder weapon, just like a venomous snake whose weak point was clutched. They shivered.

"W-w-w-wha what is this?" Mu Huanzhi cried involuntarily.

"Does this... thing really exist on the Wall of Primal Chaos?"

"The words of God Emperors cannot be false," Yen Juehai said. His pupils had shrunk while he stared at the red crack.

This was just an image of the real thing!

The Brahma Heaven God Emperor withdrew his arm, and the terrible, bloody light finally faded away from the world. Everyone relaxed and felt as if they'd just escaped a purgatory made of a sea of blood for some reason. Shock remained in their hearts for a very long time.

"Since you've been there yourself, did you manage to find out how this strange red crack came to be?"

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor shook his head. "No, we didn't. However the two of us stayed in front of the Wall of Primal Chaos for a whole year, and we didn't find anything except the usual spatial storms. However, that red crack is gradually expanding."

The Dragon Monarch was speechless.

"When the Eternal Heaven God Emperor and I first reached the Wall of Primal Chaos, the red crack was only about seven feet long," the Brahma Heaven God Emperor said. "A year later, it has grown to ten feet. As a result, both the Eternal Heaven God Emperor and I had no choice but to consider a terrifying possibility"

"This red crack was not the result of a power in the Primal Chaos. It was either a natural part of the wall or something foreign from beyond the Primal Chaos!"

Issei who listened to their conversation frowned slightly. Because he can tell that that red crack is probably caused by him albeit not fully.

[Nyarlathotep...] Issei called out lightly.

[Hmm? Ah, if you want to ask whether that crack is caused by you or not then the answer is correct but it's not completely your fault either, dear husband~] Nyarlathotep chuckled lightly.

[That "wall" is created by me in the past but since I've never really done proper maintenance to it. It's a given that it will become weak and brittle after some time has passed... Sooner or later, with enough given time, anyone can break that wall.]

[Your arrival just hasten it by a bit... Because your body is basically impervious to almost any magic or divine arts and also because our <Chaos> is slightly different, so when you pass through that "wall", you unintentionally weaken it even further.]

[Those pests who are residing outside also need to be taken into consideration since even now they're trying to destroy the "wall". When you're about to enter this world, they're about to flee from me while I was protecting you but I stopped them and told them to continue their job.] Nyarlathotep finished her explanation with a smirk.

[Why would you tell them that?] Issei asked with a frown.

[Well, it doesn't matter if they continue to do their job or not... As I said before, anyone can break that wall with enough given time. So I thought that why not just make it happen sooner rather than later? Besides, you will take care of them later on anyway.]

Nyarlathotep doesn't really care whether those pests enter this world or not. Even if they bring destruction across the realms, she still won't care...

Those pests won't be able to reach the core of this world anyway.

Issei sighed tiredly when he heard her explanation but then again, he also shares some fault with this "crimson crack"... Well, he's going to "fix" this later so it's all good he guesses.

The words of the Brahma Heaven God Emperor were world-shocking, without a shadow of a doubt.

"Outside the Primal Chaos How is that possible?"

"Wasn't it a dead world outside the Primal Chaos? There shouldn't be any doubt that even the ancient devil gods must have died after being banished outside the Primal Chaos. So how could there be a thing that broke the wall of the Primal Chaos? No matter how you think about it, it's certainly impossible!"

The "wall" serves as a cage for them but they didn't know that of course...

Nyarlathotep indeed created that "wall" to protect them from outside harm at first but later on, it only serves as their cage...

"Perhaps, the Wall of Primal Chaos collapsed on its own? That would be even more impossible, right?"

"It's truly inconceivable, and something beyond the understanding of us," Mu Huanzhi said with eyes opened wide.

"No matter how I process it in my mind, it still sounds like nonsense," Huo Rulie said with a frown. But looking at his face, he really didn't appear to truly mean what he had said The four god emperors were all here, the Dragon Monarch had also come, and the two great god emperors of Eternal Heaven and Heavenly Brahma had personally mentioned it. Therefore, no matter how inconceivable it was, there was no way for it to be said in jest.

Even the elders of the God Realm were all listening to their words as if they were from the heavenly book, let alone those young profound practitioners who had come along with them.

"Hahahaha," God Emperor Shitian laughed loudly in an unrestrained voice. "How could such a thing happen outside the Primal Chaos? Do you even believe what you have just told us yourselves?"

Dragon Monarch didn't laugh or anything, and instead lowered his eyes as he pondered something. He said all of a sudden, "Brahma Heaven God Emperor, those words of yours are absolutely impossible if we were to think normally. However, considering that you said them publicly, could there be still some other reason?"

"I will talk about it," the Eternal Heaven God Emperor said. "Everyone, do you remember that in some books and jade strips from the Primordial Era of Gods there is mention of the head of the four great Creation Gods, Mo E splitting open the Wall of Primal Chaos with the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword to banish all devil gods outside of it?"

Below the Conferred God Stage, a large number of people nodded their heads. It was an ancient legend that people from a lot of star realms, and especially many of those from the upper star realms, were already aware of.

"Over these past years, I once again consulted a large number of ancient texts that were left behind from the Era of Gods, and finally ascertained the authenticity of this matter. The location of the Wall of Primal Chaos that was split open by Creation God Mo E with the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword was right at the far-east of the Primal Chaos!"

The atmosphere of the place suddenly became stiff. Dragon Monarch said, "You mean"

"It is perhaps not a coincidence, after all. There is a possibility that the place of this crimson crack is precisely the location where the Wall of Primal Chaos was split open by Creation God Mo E with the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword in the ancient era!"

They continued their guessing game while the two "culprit" is silently converse between themselves...

"According to the ancient records, the world outside the Primal Chaos is one with endless calamities. If the Wall of Primal Chaos were to collapse, and a gap appears in it, the energy of those calamities will gush into our world. As a result, the star realms that are comparatively nearer to it will definitely be hit by the calamities, and if it continues for a longer period, the balance of climates and elements would likely be broken, which would lead to extremely ghastly, unthinkable consequences.

"After all, that energy of calamities has annihilated even mighty existences like True Gods."

A deep frightened look surfaced on the faces of all the experts of the Eastern Divine Region.

Xiaotao and Lieyan glanced at each other while they silently gaze at their Master.

Their master has already told them about that energy origin so they're not too surprised... they silently sighed in relief since their master will help them handle this calamity.

The Glazed Light Realm King said, "If it's truly as you say then around what time will this horrible calamity break out?"

"No one knows," the Eternal Heaven God Emperor answered. "The three masters from the Heavenly Mystery Realm weren't able to find out about it, either. Perhaps, we are only worrying over nothing, and the crimson crack on the Wall of Primal Chaos will disappear on its own at some point in time. It is possible as well that it will take a very long time, several hundred thousand or million years, for it to truly collapse. But, at the same time, there is also the possibility that it will happen after several thousand or a hundred years"

"In a few years or even tomorrow!"

"No one can really predict the time, just like how it is impossible for anyone to know the reason behind the appearance of the crimson crack on the Wall of Primal Chaos. Everything we have said is nothing more than our conjecture."

"So you mean to say that this special session of the Profound God Convention is to make preparations for the calamity that we might be facing in the future?" the Dragon Monarch asked. Hearing all the things so far, he had already understood the whole story and the reason for the many unusual movements of the Eternal Heaven God Realm.

"Correct." The tone of voice of Eternal Heaven God Emperor grew incomparably serious. "Although everything we talked about is just a guess and assumption, and the so-called calamity may never happen, once it truly breaks out, it would definitely be catastrophic for the Eastern Divine Region without sufficient preparations in place."

"These three masters from the Heavenly Mystery Realm risked their lives and exchanged a large part of their life spans in exchange for the information, so how could it be treated lightly? Furthermore, since the time the three masters pried into the mystery of heaven, they have constantly felt uneasy, all day and night for around twenty years. It's absolutely not a good omen, and we must prepare ourselves for the worst."

"Over these years, the Brahma Monarch, Star God, Moon God, as well as my Eternal Heaven Realm, have all been preparing for the calamity. We are stocking up as many profound crystals and profound stones with spatial energy, so as to fix the Wall of Primal Chaos when it collapses But, that wall is something that even the True Gods were unable to destroy. Therefore, the amount of spatial energy needed to fix it will certainly be incomparably enormous. There is no way that the preparations of a year or two would be enough for the purpose. It would require several hundred years, or even several thousand years"

"So, if the calamity were to break out during this time period, then we can only have a large number of experts block the gap in turns with their powerful energies until we have enough spatial energy to fix the wall or discover some other solution. This session of the Profound God Convention was held with this in mind."

"Making all the people with mature cultivation in the profound way enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm to cultivate would not be able to make a big difference in their cultivations after three thousand years. But if it is those young profound practitioners with extremely high talent and unlimited future, we will definitely get to see their cultivations soaring in the time period of three thousand years in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm."

"The thousand young profound practitioners who will be sent inside the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm after this Profound God Convention, will all become an extremely huge energy, that will quite likely save the Eastern Divine Region if the calamity were to truly break out someday in the future."

At this point in time, Eternal Heaven God Emperor and others had already completely said whatever was needed or they wanted to. All that remained was for the rulers and experts of the Eastern Divine Region that were present at the Conferred God Stage to digest the information and explanations they heard, and accept them.

"If it all turns out to be a needless worry, in the end, that would still mean the addition of a thousand peerless experts to the Eastern Divine Region. There are many gains but not a single harm in following this plan." Eternal Heaven God Emperor smiled faintly.

Silence reigned on the entire Conferred God Stage, as people showed different reactions to his words: stunned, staring blankly, spacing out, heart beating wildly, disapproval.

It has been rumored many years ago that for this session of the Profound God Convention to be held all of a sudden, there had to be some relation with a calamity that was likely to happen, which was discovered by the Heavenly Mystery Realm. However, these rumors were in bits and pieces, and their source was unknown as well. There were extremely few people who treated it as the truth. Who would've thought that not only was the rumor true, the reality of it was far beyond their knowledge and imaginations?

A weird crack on the Wall of Primal Chaos, a strange crimson light coming from it, a fearsome guess, and a frightening calamity It was if a terrifying nightmare had barged into their tranquil world.

Mu Bingyun couldn't help become worried and she unintentionally asked Issei: "...Did you know anything about this young master?" She knows her question might seem far fetched asking Issei who she barely knows anything about but she couldn't help feeling reliant over his presence...

"I do." Issei simply replied.

"Ah?" Mu Bingyun eyes widened since she never thought that Issei will really know about it.

"Well... you could say that crimson crack is partially caused by me. But you don't need to worry... I will 'fix' it later."

"..." Mu Bingyun dumbly nodded at his words.

For some reason, all her worries disappear into thin air...

The entire place remained quiet for a long while, and the four great god emperors didn't say a word again. It was at this time that Jun Wuming let out a very long sigh, and broke the silence, "Even though everything is uncertain for now if the Eastern Divine Region is truly in danger, we all will naturally go all out to protect it."

"We were facing such an anomaly and were still totally oblivious to it, causing the Eternal Heaven God Emperor to exhaust his thoughts and ingenuity for the sake of the Eastern Divine Region. Not only have the preparations been underway since a long time ago, this time even something as important as the power of the Eternal Heaven Pearl has been decided to be used up Wuming can only express his great admiration for all the Eternal Heaven God Emperor has done." Having finished his words, Jun Wuming bowed to the other party with sincerity.

These words of Jun Wuming's resonated with every person of the Eastern Divine Region. All of them stood up from their seats and deeply bowed towards Eternal Heaven God Emperor.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor got up as he raised his hand and sighed, "My Eternal Heaven is a king realm of the Eastern Divine Region. I only did what was expected of us. If that day truly comes, the safety of the Eastern Divine Region would still depend on you all."

"Haha, that goes without saying. If the Eastern Divine Region is in danger, my Holy Eaves Realm will do all in our capability, without taking even a step backward."

The moment Eternal Heaven God Emperor finished his words, a middle-aged man, with his black beard reaching down to his abdomen, spoke in a solemn tone It was actually the Holy Eaves Realm King, the biological father of Luo Changsheng.

"When the time comes, the Glazed Light Realm will completely follow the arrangement of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor." Sitting in the seat adjacent to the Holy Eaves Realm, a very good-looking man said in an indifferent tone. Similar to the Holy Eaves Realm King, there was no one who wouldn't know of his great name either, the Glazed Light Realm King.

"Shrouding Sky Realm will certainly do everything possible," the Shrouding Sky Realm King roared as well.

"We will certainly give it our all!"

Since the three most powerful upper star realms had expressed their stance on the matter without the slightest hesitation, the other star realms naturally followed right after them.

"Good" Eternal Heaven God Emperor said in an excited voice. Despite being the ruler of a king realm, he gave a deep bow to all. "Representing Eternal Heaven, I shall first thank everyone for their cooperation."

Having remained silent for a long time, Dragon Monarch stood up at this time. He said with a solemn expression, "This matter is quite odd, so this dragon will also pay special attention to it. I might personally make a trip to the edge of the Primal Chaos. If something worrying truly happens in the future, my Dragon God Realm will not look on with folded arms, either."

There was quite clearly another nuance to the words of Dragon Monarch Only if something worrying happens would the Dragon God Realm not look on with folded arms. That meant that no assistance would be provided before the calamity actually happened; for example, donating spatial profound crystals. Everything was only a guess, after all. Moreover, it was a barely believable guess in the opinion of Dragon Monarch.

However, to have Dragon Monarch say such words was already a pleasant surprise for Eternal Heaven God Emperor. He bowed in thanks, "Now that we have got such a promise from Dragon Monarch, Eternal Heaven will be a hundred times more at ease."

"God Emperor Shitian, what is your opinion?" the Brahma Heaven God Emperor asked.

God Emperor Shitian replied with an indistinct smile, "How could I dare to arbitrarily make a decision on something so great? Besides if these words were spoken by someone else, I'd not have believed a single thing, but since the Eternal Heaven God Emperor himself spoke about it, I don't have any choice but to believe it as true. However, I only believe in the thing about the location of the crack, and don't acknowledge your so-called guess at all. The Wall of Primal Chaos cracked open on its own? Haha, I've never heard of a joke as absurd as this."

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor let out a faint laugh, "It is certainly true that it's nothing more than a baseless and guessed assumption. I also hope that everything is as god-emperor said. But, since the matter is related to the safety of the Eastern Divine Region, we have to take preventive measures, even if the odds of the calamity happening are just one in ten thousand or even a hundred million."

While speaking, the divine eyes of Eternal Heaven God Emperor were looking far into the distance, to the east. There was a clear sign of deep worry in the depths of his eyes.

There was a fact that he had hadn't mentioned. The ones constantly feeling uneasy were not only the three elders of the Heavenly Mystery Realm but also the Eternal Heaven Pearl.

...

Inside the Eternal Heaven Pearl, on the battlefield for the second round of the preliminaries of the Profound God Convention.

Incomparably intense battles were being fought everywhere in this place, so as to be able to seize the qualifications to enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm. Even if it wasn't their projections in here and they couldn't revive, they would still not spare anything to achieve their goal, even if it meant risking their lives.

The ranking didn't change much and Xia Qingyue's group is still in the lead as expected.

They didn't really need to do much since their score surpassed everyone else...

"Big Sis, the end must be right around the corner. Do you still want to continue?"

The voice was tender and crisp, soft, and mild. It would make the listeners feel numbness in their whole bodies, and yearn incomparably to take a look at the owner of the voice.

"Of course, I want to. There is only a very slight difference in soul orbs between Jun Xilei and me. If I were to relax for even a bit, I'd be outdone by her."

It was quite a gentle voice but contained a customary chilliness within it.

"Looks like your intuition is proven to be right once again... Those groups of girls are indeed abnormal."

She is one of the Four God Children of the Eastern Region, Shui Yingyue of the Glazed Light Realm.

And her little sister is named Shui Meiyin.

"I just got lucky, big sis... Unlike others, they didn't seem to actively hunt for the other participants. They just grouped up together and keep meditating or chatting between themselves." Shui Meiyin said while she glanced at the direction where the girls are located.

Everyone knows of their location by now since they didn't really move from their initial spot from the start of the second round.

They disregard almost everyone who comes close to their location as if they didn't think of them as a threat in the slightest.

Eternal Heaven God Realm, after close to three days of discussion about the matters concerning Wall of Primal Chaos, an abnormal situation was still displayed above the Conferred God Stage.

"Judging by the time, the second round of preliminaries is about to come to an end."

The gaze of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor turned towards the Eternal Heaven Tower, "The one thousand youths who pass the preliminaries will be sent here. These one thousand youths are the one thousand 'heaven chosen children' selected for this Profound God Convention. If any disasters happen in the future, they will undoubtedly be a massive assisting force."

"However, before the conclusion of the Profound God Convention, it is best to not let them know of this. What's most important for them now is that they do their best in displaying their abilities whilst enjoying the Profound God Convention. This also allows us to witness the abilities of the young generation and so we won't have to suddenly lay on some heavy pressure."

Everyone on the Conferred God Stage nodded, as they understood what he meant.

"Heh, heaven chosen children," God Emperor Shitian laughed weirdly, "Then this king must carefully observe. I hope that you won't disappoint me too much."

"Hmph, don't pee your pants after being a frog in the well for too long." the Star God Emperor suddenly laughed coldly.

Beneath the king realms, there was indeed one exceptional candidate among the young generation of the Eastern Divine Region that gained the confidence of not only the Star God Emperor, but also the other god emperors.

"Heh, then this emperor really can't wait for it." God Emperor Shitian gave a fake smile.

Then, the expression of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor suddenly changed as he looked at the Brahma Heaven God Emperor with a faint smile.

The Brahma Heaven God Emperor's gaze shifted sideways before he smiled wryly, "My daughter does not know the etiquette and barged in herself. Qianye is ashamed and hopes you will only punish her lightly."

"Hahahaha," the Eternal Heaven God Emperor let out rare cheerful laughter, "Your daughter personally coming is something that this old one is happy about, I couldn't bear to blame her."

"Sigh, having already barged in but yet only watching from afar and not paying her respects to her elders, this is really unbecoming." the Brahma Heaven God Emperor shook his head and laughed bitterly.

Everyone heard the conversation between the two clearly and instantly, countless heads turned...

The daughter of the Brahma Heaven God Emperor

The legendary "Goddess" was here?!

However, immediately, they also heard Brahma Heaven God Emperor's bitter laugh. His word meant that although his divine daughter was here, she did not come to the Conferred God Stage but instead watched from afar?

"That's good as well." the Moon God Emperor smiled, "If our Eastern Divine Region's Goddess had really come over, I'm afraid all the males present would no longer be able to pay enough attention to enjoy the Profound God Convention, hohoho."

"Hahahaha." All the god emperors began to laugh except for the Star God Emperor.

That's weird, why would Ying'er being interested in a mere Profound God Convention, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor thought to himself. Based on his understanding of his daughter, there was no reason why she would appear here.

Issei sensed and recognized this presence... When he saw Qianye Ying'er who's prying into the convention he raised his eyebrows for a brief moment before losing interest.

He could already guess that woman he met in the God Realm of Absolute Beginning is the princess of the Brahma Monarch God Realm.

Above the skies of the Eternal Heaven God Realm, above the clouds.

A golden silhouette stood silently above the clouds. She was dressed in golden clothes that flowed with a dreamlike light. Although her clothes were only slightly tight, they complimented her curves nicely and were sufficient to drive any man crazy. Her long hair was an eye-catching gold, so long that it rested just above her perky bottom.

If someone were to only look at her profile or back view from far away, no one would doubt that she was definitely an unparalleled beauty. Even when she was only silently standing there, the glare of the sun and the shine of the stars seemed to have faded quietly as though they were afraid that her elegance would diminish.

However, what was exceptionally regretful was that no one was lucky enough to look at her face.

A golden mask shaped like phoenix wings covered her mysterious eyes. However, below the mask, her lips were tender and seemed as though they were cherry blossom petals glittering in the light. Her neck was dreamily white and seemed to be covered in a powder made of snow. Nobody would dare believe that there would be such flawless jadelike skin existing in this world.

In the God Realm, extremely few people had the opportunity to see how she looked, and yet, there was almost no one that did not know the fame of her beauty.

Qianye Ying'er just recently returned from the God Realm of Absolute Beginning.

She's feeling disappointed that the man she's looking for isn't there anymore... Even after she waited for almost a month over there, she still doesn't see him much to her frustration.

After waiting for a while, she decided that she will just return later...

She also wanted to take a peek at the ongoing convention.

She had directly passed through the restriction of the Eternal Heaven Realm and arrived outside the Conferred God Stage. Her gaze penetrated through the distant space as it fell on the stage. Obviously, she had come for this Profound God Convention, but she didn't have the intention to enter the Conferred God Stage to watch the battle. Instead, she was planning to stay away from others and watch the competition from a distance.

At her side was an old person who seemed particularly aged. His height was no taller than around six feet and he had a crooked body. Furthermore, his whole body was dried-up like a corpse that had been exposed to the sun in a desert. He was dressed in gray clothes that were clearly too baggy for his frame, and were so utterly worn-out that they only barely served their purpose.

The head of the old man was deeply lowered, making it impossible to look at his eyes. His aura appeared to be strangely turbid, and he didn't budge an inch, as if his entire body was rigid. Even his tattered gray robe was completely still and didn't show any movement from the wind blowing past it.

There were two young girls standing straight behind him. They were dressed in similar silvery soft armor. The girl on the right had a dainty physique with exquisite curves, while the one on the left was very well-developed with her breasts pushing out her silvery armor, which was moving up and down as she breathed in and out.

The two girls had their beautiful necks bent forward, displaying a very respectful attitude. It seemed as if they didn't dare to even look straight at the back of Qianye Ying'er, as if she was some sort of deity.

However, these two girls, who were acting so carefully and clearly only had identities of attendant maids, had such auras of the profound way emitting from them that they could absolutely strike terror in the hearts of countless realm kings who had entered the Conferred God Stage.

"Looks like some uninvited people have come to the convention as guests," Qianye Ying'er said. Those alluring as nectar, tender and beautiful lips of hers spoke in an extremely indifferent, emotionless tone of voice.

"One is the Dragon Monarch, and another Cang Shitian from the Southern Region," the crooked old man replied. His voice was such that it was incomparably hard to understand his words, making it hard to believe that it was a human being speaking.

Qianye Ying'er slightly raised her golden eyebrows, "Even the Dragon Monarch has come? It appears that he is also here because of that so-called crack on the Wall of Primal Chaos."

"Does Miss want to go over and greet them?" the crooked old man asked.

"No need." Qianye Ying'er didn't hesitate in the least. "There is only two person in this world who deserves my attention. My royal father and 'him'."

The old man and the two girls behind her don't seem to feel surprised except for the last bit.

"...Is he really worth that much, young miss?" The crooked old man asked. This is the first time for his young miss to feel genuinely interested in another person like this... and to top it off, that person is a man!

"Hmph! In this world, he's the only man who's worthy enough to be my husband!" She said with a scoff: "And do you think I would lie about someone else's worth especially when they're a man?"

"No, you wouldn't." The crooked old man replied without thinking.

Even the Dragon Monarch isn't spared by her ridicule after all.

"It's understandable that you don't believe my words and only if you saw his strength with your own eyes that you will believe it... I witnessed him created a Divine treasure that surpasses all the Divine treasures in this world with my own two eyes... No words can describe the might of that treasure, but one thing for certain is that it is extremely powerful. And he who created that treasure is even more so! The 'Heaven' themselves shakes in fear when that treasure is created..." Qianye Ying'er said while reminiscing that sight of Issei creating the <Chaos Slayer>.

The whole realm and space shook greatly and it's as if the sky is about to fall down... It's as if the 'Heaven' is begging him for mercy...

"Uncle Gu, do you feel that it will be worthwhile to have made the trip here?"

"Miss has the blessing of heaven," the old person called "Uncle Gu" answered in a hoarse voice.

His full name is Gu Zhu.

"Blessing of the Heaven was it... I wonder about that..." Qianye Ying'er mumbled: "What do you think of these groups of girls, uncle Gu?"

A bizarre, sharp light flashed in Gu Zhu's old, muddy eyes when he saw Xia Qingyue who's currently taking the first rank. His bark-like, dried-up lips slowly uttered four words in a hoarse voice, "Heart of Glazed Glass."

"" Qianye Ying'er body stiffened for an instant, after which an extremely severe change appeared on her face all of sudden. The expression in her eyes looking downward had also totally changed.

"I see now... No wonder she could take the first rank with such ease... but that still doesn't explain the other girls."

"Miss," Gu Zhu added, "this girl not only has posses the Heart of Glazed Glass, but she also possesses something that Miss has always been searching for."

"Oh?" Qianye Ying'er's eyes slanted to the side. Following that there was a slight change in her expression as she said, "You are saying that"

"The Nine Profound Exquisite Body," Gu Zhu said in a placid manner.

"..." Qianye Ying'er did not say anything and she remained silent for a good long while.

The Nine Profound Exquisite Body. Someone who possessed that contained a little world within their profound veins, could break through realms and transcend the laws of the universe. It was publicly acknowledged as the best dual cultivation incubator in the universe. As one's profound strength grew stronger, the existence of the Exquisite World would become harder and harder for people to detect, but it still could not escape the turbid and dreadful eyes of Gu Zhu.

Issei indeed taught Xia Qingyue to hide her presence and cultivation but he forgot to help her hide her special physique. After all, he already gives her and the other girls his protective charm so there won't be any real harm coming their way hence why he never taught her.

"Heart of Glazed Glass and the Nine Profound Exquisite Body, just one of these would be considered a gift from heaven, yet she actually has both. This is something that has never been seen before." Gu Zhu let out a deep and quiet sigh, "Far too many strange and abnormal things have appeared in the Eastern Divine Region of this era. Could it be that all of these have been born from the coming calamity?"

"..." Qianye Ying'er did not respond.

If it was before she met Issei then perhaps her interest would soar but now... she's hardly felt interested in it.

When someone saw something far better than the thing they wanted the most, they will start having second thoughts and this is exactly what happened to Qianye Ying'er.

She honestly believes that his 'method' is far superior. She saw him easily increase Esdeath's group strength to the peak in a blink of an eye so it's quite understandable.

"Will you make a move later, miss? But be warned... The woman of Glazed Glass is protected by the heavenly law, this is something that definitely isn't just baseless hearsay," Gu Zhu pronounced slowly. "Forcefully robbing her of her Exquisite Body might perhaps not be the best choice."

"I've never ever believed in the so-called heavenly law," Qianye Ying'er said with a soft, cold laugh: "But... There's this feeling of unease when I look at them..."

She frowned at the end of her words... It's not that she's afraid of the so-called heavenly law but rather...

When she's thinking to herself, she accidentally caught the sight of a figure that has been clouding her mind recently.

Her eyes widened and her body froze on the spot as if she has been struck by lightning.

"...He's here... How can he be here?" She muttered in a low voice while her eyes are locked onto Issei's figure. Even though Issei is wearing a mask, she can still recognize him.

She doesn't believe that a person like him would feel interested in a match between ants.

There must be something else... Unless...

Qianye Ying'er then comes to a sudden realization and she started to properly inspect each and every one of the girls.

Then she looks at his surroundings and saw Mu Bingyun who's seated right beside him.

At the end of her observation, she bit her lips while a feeling of jealousy started to sprout within her heart for the first time...
