Chapter 769: Chapter 768: A Thousand Years Later, The Nightmare of God Kingdom

Time flew by like a shuttle.

Years passed like arrows.

In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand years had passed.

In the depths of the starry sky of the World of Universe.

More than a thousand Quasi-Sky Father Level strong ones from the Nine Great Divine Fields had gathered together, waiting in silence.

Suddenly.

A Spatial Passage opened.

Wina, dressed in a standard OL outfit, stepped out and produced a spherical object with a flip of her hand.

With a surge of God Power.

The sphere emitted a halo of azure light that covered the surrounding space and sketched out a vast Star Map in the form of a holographic projection.

Upon seeing such a scene, the more than a thousand Quasi-Sky Father Level strong ones from the Nine Great Divine Fields gathered around, their expressions tense and expectant.

Wina, however, pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, scrutinized the Star Map, and then raised her eyes to smile broadly.

"Congratulations in advance to all of you. After nearly twelve hundred years of hard work, the following planet will be the final one in the Universe Great World project. Once this star is constructed, you all can go on indefinite vacation."

Hearing these pleasing words, every single one of the Quasi-Sky Father Level strong ones was moved to tears.

Finally!

They had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel!

Nearly twelve hundred years...

Under the supervision of Wina and the command of Li Jing.

They continued star construction twenty-four hours a day...

Day in and out.

Year after year.

They didn’t even know how they had made it through...

Nor did they remember how many stars they had created with their own hands.

Those nightmare-like days.

They were finally coming to an end...

Seeing that each of the more than a thousand Quasi-Sky Father Level gods was in tears, Wina felt a pang of pity.

Li Jing had merely given an order.

But she had supervised these godly beings capable of star construction, watching over their blood, sweat, and tears for nearly twelve hundred years with the demeanor of a ruthless capitalist.

These gods had indeed suffered in Li Jing’s hands.

No days off for the entire year.

Non-stop work around the clock.

Even worse off than the beasts of burden in a production team.

Shaking her head slightly, Wina pointed to a spot in the void space.

"Enough with the emotions for now, let’s get your work finished. The last planet is to be constructed in this location, and you have half an hour to build and establish its ecosystem."

As she spoke, Wina waved her hand to disperse the holographic image of the Star Map, her expression turning cool.

"Hurry up, I still have to play mahjong later and don’t have time to waste here with you guys."

Upon hearing Wina’s words, the Quasi-Sky Father Level gods did not dare slack off.

They had no choice.

This lady was not only the "supervisor" appointed by Li Jing but also the beloved daughter of the Universe World.

Once merely at the Sky Father level, she had benefited greatly from the continuous refinement of the Universe World, and before anyone knew it, she had become an immortal Ancient God level being, equivalent to a top-tier Great Luo Golden Immortal in the Eastern World.

Not to mention the thousand-plus people here.

Even if all of the current Nine Great Divine Fields were tied together, they might not be a match for her alone.

In an unspoken accord.

The Quasi-Sky Father Level gods began their respective tasks, setting to work.

A blue planet was quickly created through their combined efforts and the almost absurd proficiency of their techniques.

...

Meanwhile.

In the central planet of the Universe World, Apocalypse Star.

Li Jing, who was fiddling with a barbecue on Canglong Mountain, felt something and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

For over a thousand years.

The Universe World had finally been completed in accordance with the Star Map.

The last planet had been constructed.

Putting aside the barbecue in his hands, Li Jing waited quietly.

With the "construction" aligning with the Star Map, over these thousands of years, all manner of changes had come to the Universe World.

The emergence of each planet brought a certain enhancement to the Universe World.

And when only a third of the Star Map construction was complete, the Little Universe had officially transformed into a Big World.

By two-thirds.

It had brought an unexpected additional benefit.

In the Universe World, people who successfully condensed the Three Flowers found it easier to achieve High-grade fairyland, and even while initiating the Three Flowers, they could choose from three options simultanously.

It was then.

Li Jing realized the true meaning behind the Star Map, which had previously existed only as a concept.

Each planet in the Star Map was never corresponding to an individual planet in a world, but to a multitude of fairylands, owned or unclaimed.

Construction aligned with the Star Map.

It created an indescribable link between the cosmos and the Star Map existing in concepts.

Those who had condensed the Three Flowers atop their heads were qualified for immortality and, with this, could to some extent feel the existence of immortal positions that matched them, making the step towards immortality doubly effective.

Now that the Star Map was about to be fully constructed, Li Jing looked forward to its new functions.

The tool gods did not disappoint Li Jing.

Having become skilled workers through endless "exploitation," they took just over twenty minutes to construct the final planet and set it rotating in its proper orbit according to the Star Map.

Following this.

An enlightenment emerged in Li Jing’s mind, causing him to raise an eyebrow.

The complete construction of the Star Map did not cause a big commotion.

But it did invisibly connect the World of Universe with one Big World after another, seemingly making the World of Universe tend towards the center of all worlds.

Of course.

This was an illusion.

The truly beneficial aspect of those subtle layers of connection was the projection function, now giving the World of Universe the unique projection ability of the Star Hideaway Immortal Palace.

As long as there were stars in a place, one could project there.

That.

Was genuinely convenient!

After all, the projection function of the Star Hideaway Immortal Palace could only be used by Li Jing.

To send someone else to a certain world, he would have to make the trip himself.

Now, however, it was no longer such a hassle.

Projection still required a clear destination, and one could only project to places they had been to before or by following the unique aura of a world, but this was not a problem.

At least, Li Jing personally had little interest in those unknown Big Worlds.

Considering how convenient this function was, and the impact it could have, big or small, Li Jing set a threshold with a thought.

Only those approved by the Little Universe could use the projection function.

In Chen Tang City, over a thousand years later.

Strong ones were as common as clouds.

The environment in the World of Universe was continuously improving.

And there was the Zhenyuan Tower, a "check-in" Holy Land for closed-door cultivation.

It was hard for the clan members not to grow strong.

Moreover, obtaining high-grade fairyland positions had become easier within the World of Universe, and now Chen Tang City boasted over ten thousand immortals with fairyland positions, including more than three thousand Golden Immortals.

Those who had achieved fairyland positions were relatively sensitive.

They could easily notice the subtle changes in the World of Universe.

If he let the projection function be used without restrictions, he feared many would sneak out and wander around aimlessly.

Purely wandering.

Li Jing didn’t mind that.

As things stood now.

What Big World could compare to the World of Universe that perfectly reflected the Star Map?

Those who left, would always return.

What he feared was these immortals, unconstrained by the rules of the Big Worlds, causing unwarranted chaos while messing around outside.

After setting the threshold for the projection, Li Jing exhaled lightly.

He was about to get back to his BBQ when Chen Jing, who had now achieved the Golden Immortal status, suddenly popped up from nowhere and plopped down next to him.

?

Li Jing tilted his head and formed a question mark.

Meeting his gaze, Chen Jing glanced at Chen Yuran not far away, who was playing mahjong with Liu Sisi and two others, and said casually,

"You do know the three unfilial acts, with not producing offspring being the greatest," don’t you?

"..."

Li Jing.

This Chen Jing.

Was being somewhat direct.

From his ascension to this day, this wasn’t the first time he had been cryptic.

But this matter.

Li Jing was quite helpless himself.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want children.

Nor did Liu Sisi and the others.

The key issue was that after becoming an Immortal Monarch, it seemed he could no longer have children.

He was too powerful...

So much so that even after Liu Sisi and the others had achieved the status of Great Luo Golden Immortals, they couldn’t conceive.

A solution.

There definitely was one.

But he didn’t know where to find it.

Immortal Monarchs were practically legendary existences.

To this day, Li Jing still didn’t know how many Immortal Monarchs there were, besides himself, where they were, and whether they faced similar issues.

Looking helplessly at Chen Jing, who had again come to urge him persistently, Li Jing said,

"Dad, we’ve talked about this many times already..."

Before he could finish, Chen Jing clicked his tongue.

"Don’t make excuses, I’ve heard that so many times yet I’ve never seen you earnestly search for a solution. Today, if you don’t give me a definitive answer, I’ll go call your two moms to talk to you."

"..."

Li Jing.

In Chen Jing’s mouth, the two "moms" naturally referred to his two mothers-in-law, Liu Shi and Jiang Jingxian.

Compared to the frustrated Chen Jing.

Those two were indeed hard to deal with.

Not knowing what to say, Chen Yuran who was playing mahjong on the table gave a sidelong glance.

"Dad, are you ever going to stop? Instead of keeping mom company, you’re always nagging around our house. Isn’t it annoying?"

"..."

Chen Jing.

How does the saying go?

A married daughter is like water splashed out of the house.

His own daughter, once like a snug cotton-padded jacket, now seemed no different from a torn piece of cloth, taking shots at him at every turn.

Was he wrong for a father wanting to hold his grandson?

Seeing her father’s aggrieved face, Chen Yuran pursed her lips and ignored him.

Seeing this, Liu Sisi, who was nearby, couldn’t help but laugh and quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Uncle just wants to hold his grandson. Yuran, don’t be so bad-tempered. We younger people should try to understand our elders." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"If you’re going to talk like that, Sisi, I’m not pleased. How am I being bad-tempered?"

Chen Yuran huffed and said.

"It’s not right for him, at his age, to not settle down and enjoy old age, instead running over here incessantly to give people a hard time. Little aunt, am I wrong?"

"..."

Jiang Yini, who got dragged into the conversation, thought, why are you involving me?

She glanced at Chen Jing, who was looking at her with puppy eyes, hoping she’d say a word in his favor, then she blinked and chose to focus on her mahjong game, keeping her eyes and mind to herself.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to speak up for Chen Jing.

It’s just that Chen Yuran was such a straightforward person. She spoke her mind.

No matter if you were her biological father or not, if she needed to criticize, she would.

Only when Li Jing spoke did Chen Yuran listen obediently.

Given her forthright nature,

it was simply pointless to argue with her.

And to speak frankly,

Chen Jing always coming over was annoying to her too.

At times,

she was glad that her own father had long been hanging on the wall.

Seeing Jiang Yini not speaking up for him, Chen Jing felt dejected and gave Li Jing a sideways look.

"Control your wife!"

"..."

Li Jing.

It was true, Chen Yuran was willing to listen to him.

But there had to be a logical reason that she acknowledged.

Otherwise, with her fiery temper, she might snap at him in a minute.

He certainly didn’t want to incur Chen Yuran’s ire.

At this time,

Yulian played a tile on the table and looked over, saying.

"Uncle Chen, Li Jing’s situation is indeed quite unique. Everyone from our family is gathering information about the Immortal, and so far, we have gained little. For now, we can only trust that things will work out in the end."

While saying this, she turned to Li Jing.

"But just waiting around isn’t a solution. Li Jing, why don’t we plan an attack on the Divine Kingdom?"

???

Li Jing.

Yulian’s suggestion to go to the Divine Kingdom was understandable.

Given that the whereabouts of the other Immortals were unknown,

the most reliable way to gain information about the Immortal would undoubtedly be the Eternal Divine Kingdom.

But it didn’t need to go as far as attacking the Divine Kingdom, did it?

As he was rendered speechless, Chen Yuran spoke up.

"Attacking the Divine Kingdom at this point might still be a bit of a stretch. Although our Chen Tang City’s power is at an all-time high, there are countless hidden top powerhouses in the Divine Kingdom. Entities like Qing Tian, only Li Jing, Charming Spirit, and Ye Qingyu are truly capable of contending with. It would be feasible to defeat them one by one, but the situation in the Divine Kingdom is too complex; they may well band together."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yini chimed in with agreement.

"Yuran is right. Over the years, we’ve placed many spies in the Divine Kingdom. According to the information we’ve got so far, there are at least a hundred beings like Qing Tian in the Divine Kingdom, and we don’t know how many are hiding behind the scenes. Rash actions are not advisable."

"Moreover, based on our observations over the years, the impact left by Li Jing when he broke through the heavens in the Divine Kingdom is being gradually erased. According to incomplete statistics, the overall number of starships in the Divine Kingdom has recovered to over five hundred, including four super starships."

After saying all this, Jiang Yini continued.

"Taking down the Divine Kingdom with our current strength in Chen Tang City is far from sufficient. We are developing, and so are they. The evolution of the Universe Great World has reached its limit and unlikely to bring any further benefits. We have a long road ahead."

With that, she changed the subject.

"Instead of attacking, I think our starship combat fleet could make regular raids on the Divine Kingdom, curbing the growth trends of various forces while plundering more resources. Our starship combat fleet has undergone modernization upgrades and possesses higher combat and maneuvering capabilities compared to theirs; we can just grab and run."

Listening to Jiang Yini, Liu Sisi and the other three turned heads to look.

Li Jing blinked and pondered,

"If it’s just about raiding, we indeed have the capability now. The Divine Kingdom is unlikely to unite, and our starship combat fleet can easily raid any power ranked below the top three without pressure."

As he spoke, Li Jing looked at Liu Sisi and the other three.

"Aiming to take down the Divine Kingdom isn’t particularly meaningful; there is a vast Universe Great World to develop, there’s no need for us to go far afield in search of what’s nearby. However, since you all seem interested in making a trip to the Divine Kingdom, why don’t we start exploiting its resources and see if there might be any unexpected gains along the way."

Confronted with such a statement, Liu Sisi and the three others nodded in turn.

Chen Yuran waved her little hand.

"It’s settled, Li Jing, you go and arrange it. Starting from tomorrow, we will strike the God Kingdom like a windfall."

...

From that day forth.

The Eternal Divine Kingdom began its nightmare.

A Starboat Battle Group that appeared and disappeared unpredictably began to surface in corners of the God Kingdom, their armies pressing down and looting one God Kingdom force after another.

They did not kill.

But they would plunder the "fortunate" forces so thoroughly that nothing, not even their pants, would be left behind...

After nearly a thousand God Power forces had been pillaged to the point of disbandment due to lack of resources, the previously self-serving forces of the God Kingdom began to unite and prepare for defense.

But it was to no avail.

There was simply no stopping them.

Even though there were no less than ten warriors of Qing Tian’s caliber on standby around the clock within the alliance forces.

Without knowing where the Starboat Battle Group would appear next, they could do nothing but watch helplessly.

Even more annoying was the fact that with each raid.

The Starboat Battle Group of Chen Tang City continued to grow more powerful, with its combat strength skyrocketing.

...

About a thousand years later.

The number of Starboat Battle Groups of Chen Tang City had surged past a thousand, and the number of Super Starships had climbed to three.

During this period.

At least six thousand God Kingdom forces were devastatingly crushed.

The remaining forces, desperate for their own safety, consolidated their personnel and resources completely and moved their Mini Worlds to the position closest to the Star Map within the God Kingdom.

After this maneuver.

Chen Tang City found it truly difficult to do anything to them.

Gathering over a hundred warriors of the same caliber as Qing Tian meant that anyone seeing this would just shake their heads.

Thus.

Chen Tang City once again concealed its might and no longer appeared, quietly waiting for the God Kingdom to recover its former glory.

In Li Jing’s words,

It had become very difficult to pull the wool over the God Kingdom’s eyes.

If they insisted on looting,

It would be a thankless task that required a lot of effort.

It would be better to let them catch a breath and wait for the wool to grow back.

It’s worth mentioning that,

during the relentless raids of the past thousand years, Li Jing had successfully discovered a way to temporarily separate his own fairyland.

Wow, there was finally a solution.

...

Years later.

At an Entertainment Center in a certain part of the Big World Fairyland of the Universe Great World,

Xiaoyao Zi, dressed in a custom suit, sat in the president’s office with a complex expression, holding intelligence from the God Kingdom.

In the past week.

The God Kingdom had three forces that had barely managed to survive on the fringe of the Earth Realm, tragically discovered by Chen Tang City and robbed clean within minutes.

Afterward, they were even scorned for being too poor...

One of the leading figures broke down on the spot, chose to self-destruct, ending his Life and entering the cycle of Reincarnation to be reborn.

Looking at the fresh report in his hands, Xiaoyao Zi raised his hand to rub his brow.

As of now.

The great game he had set up for billions of years had completely lost its purpose.

The final destination of the strongest in all the worlds was now nothing but a joke.

Ambitions for the Big World?

They had no time to think about those anymore.

All day long, they were worrying about whether Chen Tang City would appear that day and whether they would be able to escape their fate.

Xiaoyao Zi was a man of great ambition.

But now he truly did not know how to achieve his ambition.

With Chen Tang City around, the God Kingdom could not only forget about being as overbearing as in the past, but it couldn’t even be considered on the right track.

Indifferently discarding the intelligence in his hand, Xiaoyao Zi chose to idle away.

Billions of years of planning.

Turned into empty talk.

Life seemed to have lost its meaning.

Huang Tian, who was a crucial part in his plans, had been killed by someone unknown. He suspected that it might be Li Jing’s doing on the quiet, making it difficult to find a replacement.

If not for idling, what else could he do?

...

Final Chapter.

The end of the book.

New book updates forthcoming.
