In the Divine Realm below, preparations were being made intensively. On the other hand, Liu Che was bored—he was studying the creation of life and the construction of planes.
Things like the Life Star Core were very interesting. They allowed gods to directly create brand-new planes. Liu Che happened to meet all these conditions, but when it came to actually doing it, he hesitated.
Why create a plane? Since there were chat groups, creating planes was tantamount to wasting resources. After thinking for a while, Liu Che ultimately gave up this idea and decided to save the resources for future use. At present, he had an endless number of worlds to choose from—no need to use this thing yet.
Liu Che opened his eyes, looked at the jade beauty kneeling beside him folding clothes, and smiled at her. "Chan'er, don't be busy—you've been working so hard for so long."
"Why would I be tired? Just a little embarrassed."
San Shengmu raised her head and smiled shyly. After all, she hadn't escaped love's grasp. Every day she watched others discuss the god, but could only look on enviously. Over time, the girl's heart began to sprout affection.
So the day before yesterday, she took advantage of a good opportunity, bribed her sisters, and through the pretense of drunkenness, succeeded in accomplishing her goal. Now her heart was at ease. In the future, she could also raise her head and face all eyes proudly. The most important thing was that she could act coquettish again.
San Shengmu seemed mature, but in reality she was still a young girl easily influenced by emotions. This was it... turned into desire by Liu Che's teasing, like a hungry tiger pouncing on food, she threw the great god to the ground. This way, his gaze couldn't stay fixed on her.
After a long while, Liu Che got up. "Freshen up—the martial arts tournament is about to begin. As a goddess, you have to face all the high priests."
"Mm... I'll be fast."
Countless clouds and mist wrapped around Yang Chan's body, washing her jade form. In a moment, colorful霞光 transformed into a long dress and wrapped around her.
Liu Che naturally didn't linger to watch and came directly beneath the First Sun. His consciousness moved the power of space—a magnificent continent quickly condensed here. Mountains and water, trees and plants. The radius was almost one hundred thousand kilometers. There was even the sea. All terrains were present—after all, god-level battles required lots of space.
Then there was the viewing platform. Liu Che positioned himself in the far north, with the other contestants in the other three directions. After setting everything up, countless time gates appeared.
Liu Che made an announcement in the group.
Eternal God: "The three-day period has arrived. Ready to begin the tournament..."
Tanjiro: "Woohoo... finally escaped the ravaging! Brothers, I'm coming!"
Li Er: "I feel like I've lost a layer of skin..."
Ninja Scientist: "If I weren't in cartilage form with all my bones broken, do you know how difficult this was for me?"
Tosaka University: "Phew... it's finally over. Gilgamesh and Enkidu, those two rascals, were defeated by me in the end! Good..."
Food Connoisseur Witch: "Hey, I trained with Tu Shan Yaya. It's about the same as you all. This time we're going to win first place!"
Pudu Sentient Beings: "This old monk finds it hard to say..."
A Candle Dragon and a true Starry Sky Dragon—mixed doubles almost beat him to death! Before participating in tournaments in the future, he still didn't need special training—it could train people to death.
The high priests from promoted worlds had already arrived at the scene one after another, their location in the south. And those priests whose worlds hadn't been promoted, under the god's guidance, closed their eyes and detached their souls from the void, arriving in the Divine Realm in advance.
Looking at this sacred place, everyone's expressions were full of humility and pride! Especially Ye Laohei! He couldn't help but feel even more emotional.
"My world is quite large, but now coming to the Divine Realm, I understand what the god's greatness truly is..."
He saw an endless sun overhead. Every time it beat, his heart beat with awe. Listening to the commentator beside him—this was the First Sun in the Divine Realm, possessing the purest power of the sun. If one wanted to practice fire system magic or follow the Law of the Sun, cultivating here was the best. Because of the divine protection, one didn't have to worry about being destroyed by the sun's power.
Accompanied by several streaks of light appearing, Uncle Jiu arrived here wearing a Taoist robe. The first time he saw the god, he knelt on the ground.
"Believer greets the god!"
Compared to other believers, Uncle Jiu, an old Taoist priest, paid more attention to rules—kneeling on the ground meticulously.
"Rise..."
The faint voice floated to his ears from a distance, making Lin Jiu very excited. Then Xiongba began kneeling on the ground in succession, bathing in the god's glory.
When Liu Che accepted the pilgrimage, Xiao Luan from the outside world suddenly said to him, "What have you been up to lately? Don't tell me you spend time with those little fairies every day?"
The jealous tone made him embarrassed. He'd almost forgotten this aunt.
Liu Che said quickly, "No, I'm planning a martial arts tournament recently. I want to hold one in the Divine Realm. By the way, I'll also review the strength of those priests."
"Huh... that sounds interesting. I wonder if my followers can participate?"
Xiao Luan's eyes lit up. She thought the martial arts tournament was very interesting—and she also wanted to get closer to Liu Che. Don't look back; he was always used to being alone and had slowly forgotten about her.
Liu Che naturally wanted to see Xiao Luan's followers and immediately said, "Of course, let them come over."
The believers in the Eternal Divine Realm were warming up when suddenly a noble woman appeared in the sky. She wore a pink dress, her temperament similar to the god's. Her appearance could no longer be described as merely stunning—this was a woman of disaster-level beauty.
"Listen, all believers. This is my wife, named Xiao Luan. You may call her the Little Divine Empress..."
Liu Che watched Xiao Luan arrive and announced her identity. The latter blushed but made no objection, settling lightly at his side. She subconsciously looked at the goddesses gathered around Liu Che and thought to herself: This man really is blessed—none of them are simple.
Xiao Luan's standards were extremely high, but even she was shocked by goddesses like Miaoshan, Yaoyao, and Ye Rou. Liu Che's genius had grown again—and there were even stronger ones!
"We have seen the Little Divine Empress..."
The women didn't bow down but bent at the waist respectfully. Xiao Luan nodded gently. There was no airs about her, but she sat beside Liu Che with the bearing of a great lady.
As for her own believers and gods, they looked at their godmother with dull expressions at this moment—like a little woman nestled in the arms of a strange god.
"Ah... does Master have a husband?"
"Idiot, that's the priest!"
"Oh..."
There were very few people from Xiao Luan—less than a hundred. In terms of strength, so-so. Ten of them belonged to the divine path. Six were in human form and the rest were of mixed heritage. There was even a mutated Yellow Turban warrior similar to an undead clay golem!
Xiao Luan asked, "What are the rules for this tournament?"
"Strength is suppressed to god-level Five-Star, and after that there are no rules. Let's see their respective tests... As for the rewards, everyone shares them. The winner can receive an Eight-Star Artifact, and one of my wishes!"
Liu Che told Xiao Luan about the process and rewards. She exclaimed.
"A wish and an Eight-Star Artifact—you really are a tyrant..."
"I'm flattered beyond measure..."
Liu Che smiled, his fingers resting on her waist. Xiao Luan hadn't expected him to be so bold and immediately lowered her head shyly. In truth, the believers couldn't see the small movements between them—after all, a divine light shrouded them both.
At this time, Shenwu flew into the air. To the believers on both sides, she announced: "The Budokai officially begins! The first match will be Fahai versus Xiao Han!"
Xiao Han was the patriarch of the Xiao clan among Xiao Luan's followers. His strength was very strong—possessing god-level One-Star power, one star lower than Fahai's. But the opponent was an ancient god who had lived for a thousand years, having improved step by step.
Swoosh.
Two gusts of wind sounded. Fahai and Xiao Han appeared in the ring at the same time.
"Don't worry about life or death in the tournament—the god will be watching, and you'll automatically separate if necessary!"
"We give thanks to the god."
Fahai felt calm and began to gather energy and concentrate. The robes on his body directly turned dark gold. Surging waves of spiritual energy rushed straight into the sky!
"Hmm... this monk has good strength."
Xiao Luan was stirred by Fahai's display and couldn't help but sigh. Combining three laws simultaneously while maintaining a physical form—that was no small feat. Normal gods couldn't accomplish this.
In an instant, the two sides clashed. Xiao Han was skilled with swords, following the Law of Ice. He paid careful attention to the rules of manipulation, seeking to break his enemy, and his offensive was extremely aggressive.
But his enemy Fahai, having faced mixed doubles training, possessed resistance that was simply at maximum. There was no fear of this frost whatsoever—after all, the destructive power of frost was no more terrifying than the power of Bai Suzhen's Candle Dragon.
"This poor monk can be the supreme of Buddhism! Little swordsman, kneel down..."
A massive Buddha shadow flew out of Fahai's body—three heads and six arms. The Law of Fire, the Law of Gold, the Law of Time, all three combined into one.
It destroyed Xiao Han's Frost Domain! The field shattered and the frost was annihilated. Xiao Han wanted to attack again but didn't notice that Fahai had already closed the distance. With one move that shattered the stars, he struck directly into Xiao Han's crotch.
Xiao Han was eliminated on the spot!
Xiao Luan turned her head and stared at Liu Che, speaking in a low voice. "How did you raise a god like this? Why did the bald thief have to pull such a move?!"
There was no way to attack that!
Shameless!
Liu Che shrugged when he heard this and said innocently, "I can't be blamed, my wife. He's always been like this. He didn't do this before, but he said that this is a life-or-death battle!"
Back in time, the defeated Xiao Han returned to his original appearance within the divine light. The lingering fear in his heart made him instinctively touch his body—and he was relieved to find that everything was still there.
"Cherish life... Brother Xiao, I'll learn more from you when you have time..."
Fahai said with a smile on his face. Xiao Han's angry expression was like black charcoal—this bald thief was truly wicked. The ghost should be talking to him, not him!
