This dome, like an upside-down bowl, completely covered the entire stage.

From the stone house above the Heavenly Dome, one could no longer see what was happening on the stage.

On the Observatory of the Capital Mansion, the projection derived by the Earth Child’s Prediction also suddenly failed.

Inside the entire stage, sun and moon were obscured, there was no more light, everything was pitch-black.

The Fake Incense Fire Taoist, who wanted to leave, was shrouded by the vaulted branches of those two Ancestor Trees, blocking his way out.

"Damn trees, what are they trying to do?"

The Incense Fire Taoist did not dare to force his way through—facing two Ancestor Trees, if he tried to break out, he would definitely reveal his true form.

"It’s not yet time to tear the mask off."

The Incense Fire Taoist thought to himself.

...

"These two Ancestor Trees intend to conceal the appearance of the ’Human World Play God,’ so the Heavenly Dome can’t see it."

Li Changxun said this in the audience seats to Yun Ziliang and Zhou Lingyi.

"Not let the people of the Heavenly Dome see?" Yun Ziliang asked Li Changxun.

Li Changxun nodded and said, "That fat man in the Sky Dome Stone House—I don’t know who he is, but Mr. Yan is also extremely respectful before him, which shows that his status in the Heavenly Dome is extremely high.

Among the Heavenly Fire Clan, those with high status simply don’t concern themselves with mortal affairs. For him to supervise in person, it seems there is something on Mr.’s body that will touch a taboo of the Heavenly Dome, to the point that even that fat man doesn’t dare to take it lightly."

He crossed his arms over his chest and said, "What matter does Mr. have on him that can make the Heavenly Dome so invested? I reckon only the ’Human World Play God’ could make them waver,

so this secret cannot be allowed to be seen by the Heavenly Fire Clan."

Just as he finished speaking, Yun Ziliang pointed at the Eternal Life Sect Leader and the Tiancan Monk on the stage and said, "Then what about those two? The two of them are God-level under the Heavenly Dome; they represent the Heavenly Dome."

These two God-level beings were currently inside the Ancestor Tree’s dome. Once they saw anything, witnessed anything, and relayed it to the Heavenly Fire Clan of the Heavenly Dome, then the dome covering the Heavenly Dome’s sight would be meaningless.

After listening to Yun Ziliang’s words, Li Changxun shook his head and said, "Grandmaster, if even you can think of this, how could the Peach Blossom Ancestor Tree and the Zhou Family Ancestor Tree not? Just watch, there’s a backup plan."

...

Sure enough, just as Li Changxun had said, the Peach Blossom Ancestor Tree and the Zhou Family Ancestor Tree simultaneously let fall a skyful of willow fluff and peach blossoms.

Gray-white willow fluff and pale pink peach blossoms surged toward the Tiancan Monk and the Eternal Life Sect Leader, actually forming a great canopy that covered the two God-level beings inside.

The Tiancan Monk and the Eternal Life Sect Leader at once felt the world go quiet; the sounds from outside were cut off, and they could not clearly see what was happening outside. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The two stood side by side, and could even hear each other’s heartbeats.

The Eternal Life Sect Leader could clearly feel that the Tiancan Monk’s heartbeat had quickened somewhat.

"Sect Hierarch, what are these two Ancestor Trees trying to do? Should we break this canopy and go see what’s going on?"

The Tiancan Monk felt a vague panic. The sudden loss of external sound and images made him faintly uneasy.

The Eternal Life Sect Leader replied lazily, "Old Can, in my view, we’d better just stay here honestly."

"Why?"

"After the willow tree and peach tree formed this dome, can you still sense Mr. Yan’s eye in the Heavenly Dome?"

The Eternal Life Sect Leader asked.

"I can’t sense it anymore."

"That shows this dome has severed Heaven and Earth. Within the dome is a sealed space. The peach tree and willow tree erecting this dome are probably going to do something ruthless and don’t want the two of us to know."

The Eternal Life Sect Leader’s cultivation was higher than the Tiancan Monk’s, and his knowledge of the human world was far greater as well.

After thinking through a few thoughts, the Tiancan Monk asked, "If we break this barrier formed by the flowers and fluff, what will happen?"

"We’ll be cut down by those inside the dome."

The Eternal Life Sect Leader said.

"Who would cut us down? Zhou Xuan, reborn in fire?" the Tiancan Monk asked.

"In my opinion... it’s possible the Nu God is about to awaken." After speaking, the Eternal Life Sect Leader said with grave earnestness, "So, Old Can, we just stay quietly. Always trying to stick your hand into everything will only harm you."

"Right, right."

Only now did the Tiancan Monk realize how deep the waters of the human world ran. Fortunately, this time he had the Eternal Life Sect Leader leading the way; if this God who knew only Buddhist Law and not the human world acted alone, this trip might have ended with him remaining in the human world forever.

...

"Mr., Mingjiang Prefecture needs your return."

"Mr., return at once."

"Each one of us will lend you our strength, to help you become a new God."

The cries of the common folk were still continuing.

And in the depths of that blaze, there was still a lump of bluish Netherworld Fire, constantly flickering.

This flame was Zhou Xuan’s consciousness.

At this moment Zhou Xuan was the entire stage; he was constantly envisioning in what posture the ’Human World Play God’ should appear before the audience.

Beyond posture, what level of rank Zhou Xuan should use to construct this Drama God.

"God-level of the Heavenly Dome? No, God-level is too weak, it may not be able to deal with that Fake Incense Fire Taoist."

Zhou Xuan’s slaughter target had never been the Medicine Buddha or the Hulu Taoist. His target was that Fake Incense Fire Taoist.

"Then I’ll envision the Drama God as—Heavenly God Level?"

"Or rather, I’ll envision the Drama God as—Will Level?"

Zhou Xuan had seen the ’Heavenly God Level’ make a move only that once, when the Incense Fire Taoist massacred the Buddha Country; he was somewhat familiar with the aura of the Heavenly God Level.

However, no matter how familiar, it could not compare to how familiar Zhou Xuan was with the aura of the ’Supreme Will.’

The scene of the Supreme Will being parted from the sea by the Four Heavenly Venerables still played in frames in his mind.

"I can completely envision the ’Human World Play God’ as Will Level—the Supreme Will of Jing Country."

Zhou Xuan had already settled on a plan for forging the Human World Play God; what remained was to complete it.

And the cries of those common folk had never ceased.

Each shout, besides making that blaze which ’burned the old Zhou Xuan to death’ and ’nurtured the new Zhou Xuan’ ever more ferocious,

also condensed into a peculiar ’momentum,’ like a straight, solitary plume of smoke, stabbing up toward the sky.

This ’momentum’ could not even be blocked by the dome of the Zhou Family Ancestor Tree and the Peach Blossom Ancestor Tree.

...

In the Capital Mansion, on the highest peak of the Tunnel Armor Sect,

The Butcher, seeing that solitary wisp of smoke from Mingjiang Prefecture, suddenly rose to his feet and said to the True Incense Fire Taoist beside him, "Old Incense... the seventeenth ’current of momentum’ of Jing Country has appeared."
