**Chapter 326: Perfecting the Eighteen Realms Airspace**
After leaving the residences of the God of Food and the Nine-Colored Goddess, Zhao Ling disappeared into the space of the God Realm and sat down cross-legged.
With Zhao Ling's current strength, as long as he didn't deliberately expose his identity, even the five great law enforcers of the divine world could pass right by him without detecting his presence.
Once Zhao Ling sat down cross-legged, he closed his eyes and began to use the Eighteen Realms of Dantian to absorb the extremely rich elemental energy of Heaven and Earth as well as the immortal spirit energy.
Zhao Ling's absorption speed was astonishing. In that moment, he was like an enormous black hole.
A vast amount of Yuanli (immortal energy) from Heaven and Earth rushed toward him frantically, forming an extremely terrifying vortex of Yuanli around his body.
As massive amounts of Heaven and Earth elemental energy and immortal spirit energy were absorbed into Zhao Ling's Eighteen Realms Airspace, the Eighteen Realms Airspace expanded rapidly.
In less than an incense stick of time, each of Zhao Ling's original eighteen airspaces expanded quickly from tens of thousands of kilometers to fifteen thousand kilometers, then to twenty thousand kilometers...
Such a sight attracted the attention of many gods. They could feel that the once abundant elemental energy of Heaven and Earth and the immortal spirit energy were becoming increasingly sparse.
Even the Douluo God Realm, which had been expanding, began to gradually shrink due to the loss of Heaven and Earth Yuan power and spiritual energy.
The Shura God, who had been in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes and sharply looked toward the area where the energy vortex had appeared.
He couldn't understand what had gone wrong, as he clearly hadn't felt anything unusual.
However, the elemental energy of Heaven and Earth and the spiritual energy of immortals continued to gather in that direction. This was highly unusual, making him suspicious.
Not only the Shura God but also the four law enforcers from the divine world—Destruction, Life, Evil, and Kindness—quickly arrived at the space where Zhao Ling was.
But Zhao Ling had already disappeared, and even the law enforcers found it difficult to detect his presence.
When the first-level god, the God of Space, arrived, he could only sense that an extremely terrifying and powerful presence was hidden in this space.
However, he had no way of locating the other party on his own, which made him feel deeply frustrated.
Obviously, he was the God of Space, yet the other party's mastery of the laws of space was far superior.
If the other party's mastery of space could be described as that of an adult, then his own abilities were comparable to a child who had just graduated from kindergarten, unable to even enter first grade. The gap between the two was glaringly obvious.
As the gods in the Douluo God Realm sensed that the vast amount of Heaven and Earth energy and immortal spirit energy had become incredibly thin, the Douluo God Realm, which had been expanding, also returned to its original size.
This infuriated the Douluo gods. Who was so ruthless as to absorb so much Heaven and Earth energy? Didn't they fear being choked to death?
It would have been bad enough, but they also found that most of the immortal spirit energy, which originally belonged to the God Realm, had been sucked away.
Their strength growth, which had been showing signs of improvement due to the vast amount of Heaven and Earth Yuanli, had now stagnated again. Damn it!
After Zhao Ling absorbed the massive amount of Heaven and Earth Yuanli (immortal spirit energy) from the Douluo God Realm, he carefully looked inside.
He discovered that the airspace of the Eighteen Realms had increased from a radius of 10,000 kilometers to 40,000 kilometers.
This newly added range wasn't a planet like Earth, but a vast sky, sea, and fertile land.
Inside, however, there were still no animals or humans.
As the scope of the realm grew, Zhao Ling became more aware of its potential.
He appeared in the airspace of the first realm, gazing at the vast ocean and fertile land.
With a clear mind, Zhao Ling used the wood attribute law that he had mastered. Suddenly, trees sprouted from the ground on the fertile land.
At an extremely fast speed, a dense primeval rainforest formed within an area of thousands of kilometers in front of Zhao Ling.
Of course, a rainforest alone wasn't enough. Only terrain diversity could bring more possibilities.
So, Zhao Ling created polar regions in the north and south of the first-level airspace—snowfields and glaciers.
Lush grasslands grew on the plains, deserts formed in the dry areas, and plateau landscapes emerged in the mountainous regions.
In Zhao Ling's mind, he was engaging in a creative endeavor similar to the simulation games from his previous life. He had played many of those games before.
However, when Zhao Ling actually created these things for the first time, he found that the first airspace still had many flaws. Some deserts and snowfields were separated by only a hill.
Half of the ocean was light green, while the other half was dark blue, creating a distinct contrast.
Zhao Ling found this flaw amusing. When humans eventually inhabited this world, they would undoubtedly find such an ocean to be quite magical.
As Zhao Ling completed the creation of the first layer of terrain, he began to gain some enlightenment.
With a wave of his hand, fish, microorganisms, and fungi appeared in the ocean, and life began to evolve on land.
As for what would happen on the subsequent levels, Zhao Ling wasn't entirely sure.
Not caring about anything else, he disappeared from the first level, then soon appeared on the second level.
With the experience gained from the first level, Zhao Ling's movements became much faster.
This time, Zhao Ling made some unique changes based on the characteristics of the second-level terrain.
In the second layer, he created animals similar to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Archaeopteryx, crocodiles, etc., which he had learned about in his previous life.
When he reached the eighth level, Zhao Ling created mythical creatures like the Ancestral Dragon, the Original Phoenix, and the First Qilin.
This experience was incredibly fulfilling, especially when he saw these mythical creatures being born from his hands.
Zhao Ling continued to create many fascinating worlds based on various myths and legends from his previous life, as well as from some fantasy novels.
In each realm, Zhao Ling made sure not to repeat his creations. When he reached the top-level airspace, he began to open up the God Realm according to the layout of the Douluo God Realm.
Using an entire interface as the future realm of the gods seemed like a good idea.
However, Zhao Ling felt that the combat power of the beings in the Douluo God Realm could not serve as the standard.
Those who would enter the newly opened divine realm in the future would have longer lifespans, greater strength, and other enhancements compared to those in the other seventeen planes.
Thus, Zhao Ling consciously allowed the eighteenth level to expand again, from a radius of 40,000 kilometers to 50,000 kilometers.
The primordial energy of Heaven and Earth and the origin of energy were much richer than in the other realms.
For this reason, Zhao Ling returned from the Douluo God Realm to the Douluo Mortal Realm.
Originally, the Douluo Mortal Realm still had three times the remaining Heaven and Earth Force from the original Douluo Mortal Realm.
So, Zhao Ling extracted the excess portion, allowing the eighteenth-level airspace to expand again.
After Zhao Ling left the Douluo God Realm, the gods there were still waiting, ready for battle.
It wasn't until a few days later that these gods estimated that the terrifying existence must have left, and they reluctantly dispersed…
