Chapter 363: Extra - The God of Creation

Chapter 363: Extra - The God of Creation

Since the time when Du Qianjue had humiliated her severely at his wedding, Gu Yuena had not left the Lake of Life. She remained in the special space inside the lake, focusing all her energy on improving her cultivation, trying to fuse with the God of Creation's power again and restore her form as the Silver Dragon King.

But how should I put it?

This process couldn't be described as smooth sailing. It was painfully slow. If it were that easy to regain her peak power, the original Gu Yuena wouldn't have spent ten thousand years trying to eliminate the Asura God's power within her and heal her injuries. Nor would all these chaotic events have resulted in her developing an additional personality, ultimately leading to her downfall.

Despite Du Qianjue's rapid rise to near-creation god status, Gu Yuena was not so fortunate. The forceful removal of her dragon body and cultivation wasn't something that could easily be recovered. After almost ten years, Gu Yuena barely reached the threshold of godhood, and her power remained stuck at the Limit Douluo level. This was the consequence of the choice she made back then.

Although she was able to quickly rid herself of her injuries and still retain considerable strength, recovering fully was incredibly difficult, especially with the rules of the Douluo Continent still suppressing the soul beasts.

Du Qianjue's assessment of her situation was simple: doomed.

Thus, while Gu Yuena was deep in her cultivation, she didn't even notice when Du Qianjue grabbed her effortlessly and took her to the Divine Realm.

"Little Silver Dragon, long time no see," Du Qianjue smiled as he looked at the panicked Gu Yuena.

To be honest, this girl was still as enchanting as ever, and her long silver hair hit all of Du Qianjue's aesthetic preferences. If it weren't for her previous foolish decisions that left him so exasperated, he wouldn't have been so disgusted with her.

"What... are you planning to do?" The Little Silver Dragon tried to stay calm.

"I do!" Du Qianjue nodded earnestly.

Gu Yuena was briefly stunned, but with her sharp instincts, she immediately understood the meaning behind his words, and her delicate, fair face turned bright red.

"Pervert!"

"Muahahaha, resistance is futile! Just be a good girl and stay still!" Du Qianjue cackled, drawing closer step by step, his hands growing restless.

"Don't come near me! Stay away!"

...

After a bout of struggling, Du Qianjue wiped his lips with satisfaction, while Gu Yuena, with tearful eyes, hugged her chest, a trace of deep pain visible on her face.

Cough, cough...

Don't misunderstand. While Du Qianjue did want her as a bed-warmer, he hadn't even managed to settle things with Bi Ji yet. To devour Gu Yuena completely right now would be rushing things.

All he did was extract the God of Creation's power from Gu Yuena's body. Her feeble resistance just caused her a little bit of pain.

"You bastard! Give me back my godhood!" Gu Yuena roared angrily, her face full of rage.

"What do you mean your God of Creation? That clearly belongs to me!" Du Qianjue smirked, as two diamond-shaped crystals sparkled in his right hand.

One was crimson with a hint of gold, the other pure silver but shining with dazzling rainbow colors.

The God of Destruction and the God of Creation.

The final pieces to break through to the God of Creation stage were complete!

"So, he's already dead at your hands. Then why haven't you killed me?" Gu Yuena asked, despair filling her voice.

"Tch, what a waste that would be. Such a beautiful face… how could I kill you without appreciating it first?" Du Qianjue lifted Gu Yuena's smooth, pale chin, making her look directly into his gleaming purple eyes.

"... You lust after my body. You're despicable!" Gu Yuena spat angrily.

"?"

Du Qianjue let go of her, his face displeased. "What did you just say? Lusting after your body? I'm simply appreciating beauty! Ever heard of that?"

"Hmph! Don't even dream about it. I would rather die than submit to you!" Gu Yuena responded decisively.

"Oh, really?"

...

Three hours later.

Gu Yuena, disheveled and weak, lay limp on the bed, the tears at the corner of her eyes not yet dry. Her once pristine, delicate features now carried a seductive charm.

"Hmph! How dare you provoke the mighty Lord of Chaos? Not making you submit would be an insult to myself!" Du Qianjue tidied his clothes, looking immensely satisfied.

He couldn't help but admit, she was exquisite!

"I... am unclean now…" Gu Yuena muttered in a daze.

"Oh? Still not convinced?"

"Ah...! Get away!"

"Not giving up yet?"

"Please... no more!"

"Do you yield?"

"No, I don't!"

...

"Do you yield now?"

"I yield, I yield..."

"And what should you call me?"

"..."

Du Qianjue applied more pressure, causing Gu Yuena to gasp, her eyes rolling back.

"Master... Master, I was wrong!"

Satisfied with her response, Du Qianjue nodded, took the two divine powers, and retreated to the temple to cultivate in seclusion.

And that's how you deal with a Little Silver Dragon. A domineering stance followed by a complete... convincing session was always the best method!

Du Qianjue sat cross-legged on the throne, nine divine rings radiating divine power behind him. The purple rings gradually turned green, and then they transformed into a grayish-white hue.

The God of Destruction and the God of Creation's powers merged into his body.

Under normal circumstances, such a combination of multiple divine powers in one person would cause severe conflicts, but none of that occurred with Du Qianjue.

The gray-white rings suddenly shone with a dazzling gold light, which eventually turned into a magnificent rainbow.

"It's time..."

"Fusion!"

Using three divine cores as a bridge, the purple, green, gold, and rainbow divine powers began to merge. Including the three divine cores, seven solid entities began to melt, spreading throughout Du Qianjue's body.

With the foundation of the Nine-Turn Mysterious Art, the 365 acupoints in his body instantly transformed into swirling vortexes of chaos, activating countless smaller acupoints, illuminating every cell like stars in the night sky.

Even his sea of consciousness turned into a boundless cosmic star ocean.

The realm of creation, achieved!

With dazzling starlight, a grayish-white pillar of light shot into the sky, bathing the entire Divine Realm in its hue. Under the immense divine power, the Divine Realm began to expand rapidly.

Without depleting any of the realm's stored faith energy, the Divine Realm not only expanded fivefold but also became three times more stable.

If before, a first-level god could shatter the Divine Realm's space with full force, now only a God King could achieve that.

This was Du Qianjue's contribution to the Divine Realm after becoming a God of Creation!

The fusion of the four divine essences naturally brought great benefits to the Divine Realm.

The God of Destruction, holding the Goddess of Life in his arms, looked at the rapidly expanding Divine Realm with a sense of satisfaction.

This had always been his obsession: to strengthen the Divine Realm and make it even more glorious. Now, that obsession had been fulfilled by his successor.

"Has Qianjue taken that final step?" the Goddess of Life softly asked her husband as she looked at him.

"Almost certainly. With this level of power, I'd be surprised if he hadn't taken that step!" the God of Destruction said with a sigh.

Apart from the couple, Ji Dong and Lie Yan from the Divine Realm Committee also felt the changes in the Divine Realm. The most noticeable was the increased power they could draw upon from the Divine Realm as gods.

The stronger the Divine Realm became, the more power these divine kings, acting as its enforcers, could wield. Below them, first-level, second-level, and third-level gods all felt like their godly ranks had the potential to advance further.

As long as they didn't slack off and kept strengthening their divine positions, they too could become even stronger deities!

That day, the entire Divine Realm celebrated.

In the Chaos Temple...

Qianjue, who had broken through to the Creator God realm, let his divine consciousness expand without limit, instantly enveloping countless smaller worlds under the Divine Realm's rule, as well as the entire Divine Realm itself. He could hear the cheers of the gods and the voices of all living beings.

And also...

"Temporal rifts?" Qianjue suddenly opened his eyes and looked in a certain direction.

There, a whirlpool like a black hole was sweeping toward the Divine Realm at an unbelievable speed.

After personally sensing the temporal rift, Qianjue understood why such phenomena affected worlds like the Divine Realm but did not affect worlds like Douluo Continent.

The temporal rift was essentially a spatial storm from another dimension. To put it in scientific terms, the normal world exists in three dimensions, while the temporal rift exists in a four-dimensional space.

The Divine Realm is another world hidden within space, sharing the same dimensional level as the temporal rift.

However, normal three-dimensional worlds like Douluo Continent are unaffected by these rifts.

In addition to the Divine Realm, even the half-plane of the undead and the Beast Realm that Qianjue had recently created would be attacked by the temporal rift. However, with the weaker spatial barriers of the half-plane and Beast Realm, they'd likely be shredded into nothingness upon contact, unlike the Divine Realm, which could maintain its structure even when engulfed by the rift.

That's why, among the great pantheons, only realms with a god-king present could survive such rifts.

"By now, several other Divine Realms must have already been swept up by these rifts," Qianjue suddenly laughed.

The golden Destruction Dragon Lance appeared in his hand, and endless chaos energy surged into it. The dragon head at the tip glowed with a crimson light, and flames trickled from its hollow eyes.

"Go!" Qianjue thrust the lance, and a grayish-white beam of light shot forward, tearing through space.

In the next moment, the lance's projection appeared in the path of the temporal rift, growing to a massive size, tens of thousands of meters long.

Under Qianjue's gaze, the projection of the lance, filled with destructive energy, pierced through the temporal rift in an instant.

What was considered a nearly impossible catastrophe that could destroy the Divine Realm in Tang San's original story was completely obliterated by Qianjue with a casual strike!

As for the Divine Realms caught in the rift...

Who knows!

Destroying the temporal rift and saving the Divine Realms trapped inside it are two entirely different tasks. Qianjue had no intention of saving them. Whether they survived or not depended on their luck!

Qianjue beckoned, and the Destruction Dragon Lance, having pierced through the rift, returned to his hand.

But the moment he grabbed it, Qianjue noticed something unusual.

"Hmm? What's this..." He raised an eyebrow in surprise and looked down at the lance.

"Temporal energy? Did it attach to the lance after I pierced the rift and was carried back?"

Just as Qianjue was about to study the temporal energy on the lance, it suddenly pulled him into a vast, illusory river.

"This is... the River of Time?" Qianjue marveled at the sight of the flowing river, looking at the blurry scenes upstream and the countless branches downstream.

Qianjue instantly became immersed in the endless insights of time, a rare opportunity even for someone like him who had reached the Creator God realm.

It seemed like only a second passed, or perhaps it had been an eternity, but Qianjue eventually awoke from his trance.

"What an incredible opportunity. I feel like I could actually carry out that joke I once made—to kill someone in the River of Time itself!" Qianjue laughed heartily, his gaze locking onto one of the branches of the river.

There, the Tang San of the parallel timeline, during the era of Peerless Tang Sect, was preparing to do something unspeakable to the embryo of a realm and had begun training a dog.

A parallel timeline!

"Should I give it a try?" Qianjue grinned and lifted the Destruction Dragon Lance, aiming at Tang San's head, ready to strike him down.

"Wait... this presence?"

Qianjue frowned as a vast and majestic will suddenly descended beside him.

"Earth... Mother? Why are you here?" Qianjue communicated with the will in confusion.

[...]

The majestic will murmured incomprehensibly, and only Qianjue could understand its meaning.

"Got it." Qianjue gave a thumbs up.

So, you sent me here because you made a deal long ago, but now you're sending another poor soul over without even telling them?

And this poor soul doesn't have any special powers, no support from the consciousness of this realm, and could die any moment in the Star Dou Forest?

"Mother, you're something else!"

[...] The Earth's will murmured again, a little embarrassed.

"Alright, since it's your request, as your successful child, I can't refuse!" Qianjue laughed, pulling out a few items from space.

A crimson-gold orb, a spine, and a pair of wings, all the same color.

The Dragon Soul and bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, along with his spine and wings.

"Hey, my fellow traveler, I've already defeated Tang San and reached the pinnacle. As your fellow countryman, I'll help you out, but... you'll have to pass a little test first!"

Qianjue casually tossed the items into a space-time tunnel.

Meanwhile, in another world's Star Dou Forest, a young boy, confused, suddenly heard a mysterious voice in his mind.

[Young man, welcome to the Douluo Continent!]

[Choose your destiny…]

Wait, that's wrong. Let's try again!

[Choose your path!]

[1. My fate is in my own hands, not the heavens! Overthrow Tang San and claim the throne of the Divine King!]

[2. Surrender! If you can't beat them, join them! Stick close to Tang San and become the next Huo Yuhao!]

[Rewards for each choice: Unknown!]

Watching the confused young man in the vision, Qianjue chuckled and left the River of Time.

"Goodbye, Mother! I'll visit you again if I get the chance!"

The will of the Earth silently watched Qianjue's departing figure before piercing through the boundaries of reality and returning to the true world.

"What a good child!"
