Chapter 722: Chapter 721: Let the war last a bit longer, ending the finale

Of course.

A united front by The Four Great Divine Domain is not without its merits.

Aside from the X Divine Realm.

Of the three subsequent divine domains that joined the war, there were two that Li Jing had never heard of, he wasn’t sure if their beliefs had spread on Earth.

The faiths that had spread extensively on Earth were too miscellaneous.

Without an in-depth understanding, it’s impossible to know them all.

It’s worth mentioning that in these two divine domains, which Li Jing had never heard of, the leading gods were gods of destruction.

The first one is the Titan Divinity Clan, where all of its members are giants and giant beasts.

The second one is the Tiser Divinity Clan, a divine civilization composed of human-shaped Alien Species of all different shapes and kinds.

Although these two clans aren’t large and their faiths don’t spread too widely on Earth, the combat power of the clan members is incredibly high.

The combat power of the X Divine Realm, which is also led by a god of destruction, isn’t too bad either.

It’s just that the gods of the X Divine Realm are too fragmented.

There are many members but the quality varies, they don’t unite even when facing a big enemy.

In the X Divine Realm, the notion of superior gods looking down on inferior gods is deeply rooted, which has a profound impact even in times of war.

Let’s put aside these three realms for now.

The last divine realm played a decisive role in this protracted war.

The X Divine Realm.

The individual combat power of this realm isn’t too strong, but all their members are fanatics.

At the slightest provocation, they resort to self-explosion.

No matter the situation or the circumstances.

What matters to them is that they are going to explode, and they do it arbitrarily.

They caused significant troubles for the united armies of the Supreme God Clan and the X God Clan.

It’s getting along with the high-level believers.

The God Clan who have genuine gods among their ranks playing this way is a bit too much for the two joint armies to handle.

The most terrifying thing is.

Self-destruction is not their end.

Three to five days after the self-destruction, they appear again in the X Divine Realm, then silently charge into the crowd and explode indiscriminately.

Compared with the X, Titan and Tiser Divine Realms, the X Divine Realm can be said to be a headache.

Of course, this is just a statement, the actual situation on the battlefield is not that exaggerated.

After the members of the X God Clan, who were initially contacted for a few days, caused quite a few deaths from unexpected explosions, they were immediately listed as the enemies that needed to be dealt with first.

As long as most members of the X God Clan show up, they will experience relentless group assaults, so their opportunity to self-detonate is very rare.

If they barely get the chance to self-explode, their opponent will also choose to retreat without hesitation, completely avoiding being blown up.

However, even so, the deterrent effect of the X Divine Realm is significant, which gives the suppressed joint forces of the Four Great Divine Domain a breather and an opportunity to organize a counterattack.

Setting that aside.

The war is continuing, and Li Jing is not in a hurry to try refined the X Divine Realm.

All other matters could be dealt with later.

The key is that once he takes action, the war will likely immediately come to an end.

If even the divine realm is refined.

How could the union of the Four Great Divine Domain possibly resist?

What comes next would be merely despair.

Li Jing is rather reluctant to let go of the continuous influx of essence sources during the ongoing Wars of the Gods, it’s better to wait a little longer. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

As for the inevitable result: that more or even countless gods or ascending believers will perish, that is not something that Li Jing would concern himself with.

None of these divine realms are a good lot.

Otherwise, why would the Star Cloud Heavenly Path ask him for help in suppressing them?

Upon reflection.

These four divine realms appear more "sincere" in comparison to the five divine realms that Li Jing had previously set foot in.

Consider for example the situation in the SealX Divine Domain.

Initially, the SealX Divine Domain aped others, producing piles of "consumable" warriors in order to conserve their core forces and to prematurely end the conflict, resorting to cunning strategies.

But as the battle continued, they shifted their strategy, stiffening their resistance.

The involvement of the TrueX and other three Divine Domains early in the war, indicates that SealX Divine Domain employed two separate strategies.

One was to emulate the HeavenX Divine Domain by using "consumable" warriors in exchange for keeping the higher-ranked members of the god clan safe.

The other strategy was to resist fiercely.

Compared to the first strategy,

They clearly had a soft spot for the second one.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have suddenly started resisting while also joining forces with the TrueX and other three god clans.

This implies a critical point.

Including the SealX Divine Domain, the remaining four Divine Domains seemed to be supremely confident in their own power, believing that victory would eventually be theirs.

Even when they were still being suppressed despite their coalition, they continued to hold this belief.

If not for this, they would have surrendered long ago.

Li Jing couldn’t comprehend whether these four Divine Domains were dismissing him or what, but their stubborn resistance and firm belief in eventual victory were certainly intriguing.

However, since they believed as such, let the war continue a little longer then.

...

Li Jing didn’t rush to begin refining SealX Divine Domain, and Star Nebula Heavenly Path didn’t seem to be in a hurry either.

After all, she knew exactly what someone needed.

But Star Nebula Heavenly Path’s patience was somewhat limited.

The flow of time in the Divine Domain was vastly different from that in the Big World; a few days in the Divine Domain would equate to over a hundred days in the Big World.

The reason she approached Li Jing after he returned to express her impatience and inability to wait any longer was largely due to this difference. If each Divine Domain was to be dealt with at a pace of over half a month each, even if everything went smoothly, it would still take more than a decade in the Big World.

About a week later.

While Li Jing was leisurely barbecuing in a woodland setting, the impatient voice of Star Nebula Heavenly Path echoed in his ear.

"I say, it’s about time to wrap things up."

Li Jing had anticipated Star Nebula Heavenly Path’s impatience and nudging.

He had been waiting for Star Nebula Heavenly Path to lose patience and prompt him.

Not because he wanted to negotiate terms or anything, but mainly because he wished to gather as much essence source as possible.

By now,

It was almost impossible for him to amass a large amount of essence source to meet the upgrading needs.

Divine Domain.

That was a readymade "experience field".

However, it was not to be said that he would butcher all the god clans in any Divine Domain at a whim for the sake of levelling up ...

Seeing as Star Nebula Heavenly Path had arrived to urge him on, Li Jing decided to deploy his domain and integrated the entire SealX Divine Domain, unhesitatingly commencing with the refining process.

???

The SealX, TrueX, Titan, and Tithers clans were still resisting fiercely.

The situation had arisen so suddenly that they were a bit slow to react at first.

But soon,

They realized what they’re facing.

In an instant, the soldiers of all four clans fell into a state of confusion and bewilderment.

In the face of absolute power, they who had naively believed in their eventual victory had finally come face-to-face with reality.

Victory had been an illusion from the very beginning.

Nearly three months of resistance.

The sacrifice of countless members of their own clan.

Eventually resulted in the present scene that filled everyone with despair...

Li Jing’s domain covered the entire SealX Divine Domain, causing the Supreme god clan and XiX god clan alliance to cease fire.

Based on their experience,

When Li Jing activated his domain, it signaled a cease-fire and that it was time to move to the next Divine Domain.

Indeed, it was time to go.

Although all four major god clans had gathered in the YinX Divine Realm for a united battle, the primary targets had always been the YinX Divine Clan. The deaths incurred by the ZhenX and other three divine clans were within acceptable limits.

We certainly have to visit the other three divine realms.

Not to mention the others.

The sudden participation of the ZhenX and three other divine clans in the war has allowed the YinX Divine Realm to resist till now, and it is only reasonable to make them pay the corresponding price.

Especially the ZhenX Divine Realm, which caused tremendous trouble for the two allied armies.

They were able to bounce back unscathed just a few days after their self-destruction, and it is necessary to figure out the reason for this.

This was what the two allied armies thought.

However, Li Jing did not gather them together by controlling the domain as before and directly sent them to the next divine realm.

Then...

They also sensed that the YinX Divine Realm seemed to be undergoing refinement...

At this moment...

The two allied armies were collectively dumbstruck.

Li Jing was doing something theoretically impossible, but the fact was that the YinX Divine Realm was being systematically refined...

In the crowd...

The expressions of the XiX Divine Clan, led by Athena, were particularly interesting.

All legitimate divine clans with divine positions have clear connections with the divine realm.

After all, the divine position itself is unique to specific divine realms.

Not only is it the only way for the corresponding divine clan to control great authority, but it is also a cross-boundary bridge for individual gods to communicate with the faith pertinent to their existence.

Being in Li Jing’s domain...

The XiX Divine Clan naturally sensed the existence of their divine realm.

What does this imply?

They were fighting in the YinX Divine Realm, and their home had been "stolen"...

Gabriel, Lilith, Da Ji, the seven valkyries, and the Demon Wolf Fenrir also had this feeling, but they were more shocked by Li Jing’s ability to refine the divine realm.

After all, they had each detached themselves from the divine realm, and it’s not like they were particularly nostalgic for it.

Only Gabriel was a genuine god.

Lilith and others had limited feelings of belonging to the divine realm.

Isn’t life the same, regardless of where you live?

There’s no need to obsess over a divine realm that either abandoned you or regarded you as a "gift"...

As a god created to be a "perfect being", Gabriel does not possess the various emotions characteristic of living beings.

Gabriel did have some attachment to the SkyX Divine Realm.

But the reason for that was his creator, Heavenly Father Jehovah.

Nowadays, there’s no certainty as to whether Jehovah is still alive, and since Gabriel has already left the SkyX Divine Realm, the refining of the divine realm will not affect his emotions or thoughts.

...

In the blink of an eye...

Two days passed.

The YinX Divine Realm was completely refined and sealed.

Those non-YinX Divine Clan members who were in the YinX Divine Realm were placed in Li Jing’s domain and could not leave. They were directly thrown into the depths of the starry sky by someone for temporary storage.

In this period, the YinX Divine Clan and the XiX Divine Clan were successively sent back to their "homes".

Gabriel and the others were sent to the center of the Little Universe, where they were hosted by Nangong Qingshan, a permanent resident of the Little Universe, who also introduced them to the various characteristics of Chen Tang City.

Two days later...

The ZhenX Divine Realm was tragically refined.

Those ZhenX Divine Clan members who had been placed earlier now had a place to belong...

Two more days passed...

The Titan Divine Realm and Tiser Divine Realm were successively refined.

The Titan Divine Clan and Tiser Divine Clan, both anxious about the war, finally returned "home" one after another.

However, the divine realm they were in was no longer a high-dimensional space superior to ordinary mini worlds, but a planet that had been sealed.

Although the divine position and faith that the god clans relied heavily on were still there, everything had changed.

Li Jing had no intention of considering the feelings of the various god clans, nor of wooing any god clan. His attitude from the beginning to the end was that they need to come to terms with reality once again.

...

Deep in the starry sky.

Li Jing stood in the vast universe, calmly observing the nine great divine domains being built into a small galaxy. He thought for a moment and raised his hand to create a huge meteorite by manipulating the rules of creation.

He couldn’t directly create a complete planet.

Because it is akin to creating a world from nothing.

What Li Jing could do.

Is to create a meteorite and then shape it into a sphere, making it exist in a form that resembles a planet.

After creating a "planet" with his hands, Li Jing once again manipulated the rules to change the terrain and instill the various necessary conditions for living creatures to operate. Then he brought some creatures over to settle and live here.

Then, Li Jing raised his hand again to erect a majestic palace on the "planet" and then moved the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse over with a single thought.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who had been previously treated by Nangong Qingshan, were slightly stunned when they were suddenly moved.

Seeing Li Jing standing before them, the four people bowed and performed a knight’s salute.

Seeing this, Li Jing waved his hand.

"From now on, we are all one family, so dispense with the formalities."

He said, pointing to the nine great divine fields that had been constructed into a miniature galaxy.

"As you can see, I have refined the nine great divine fields, but at the same time, I have maintained the necessary connection with the Star Nebula Great World. The situation has changed somewhat from what we agreed upon before, and from now on, you will also have to live in my Little Universe."

After explaining, Li Jing held up two fingers.

"You have two choices at the moment. One is to use this ’planet’ under your feet as a base to supervise the nine great divine domains for me. The other is to directly join Chen Tang City and serve me."

Hearing his words, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse exchanged glances.

The Death Knight spoke up.

"Honorable Watcher, you should be aware that we are judges, we exist for the sake of order."

"Hmm."

Li Jing nodded and laughed.

"I simply provided you with options due to the change in circumstances, not to say that you must serve Chen Tang City. But it seems like I was being meddlesome. From now on, just live on this ’planet’. Unless necessary, I won’t interfere with you."

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse nodded in response, quite satisfied with this arrangement.

Seeing this, Li Jing didn’t say more, choosing to leave with a flicker of his figure.

...

Returning to the center of the Little Universe.

Standing on Canglong Mountain, Li Jing let out a light breath and summoned the status bar.

Looking at the data on the status bar, the corners of Li Jing’s mouth lifted slightly.

Without realizing it, he had gained another 21 levels.

His journey to the Star Nebula Great World was more than worth it, wasn’t it?

But the biggest gain, without a doubt, was refining the nine great divine domains and establishing a connection between the Little Universe and the Star Nebula Great World.
