Just as the old patriarch forced me to my death, I achieved the unity of Dao and fruition.

Long Xuan stared at the "Xuan Que" on the divine throne, his eyes growing colder and colder.

"Who exactly are you?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changjin's expression showed even greater surprise than his.

"Long Xuan, what do you mean by this?"

"The divine realm is at a critical juncture of life and death. The Supreme God-King has just fallen. Instead of thinking about how to resolve the spacetime turbulence, you're here eliminating dissidents?"

As he spoke, he slowly rose from his throne, his gaze sweeping over the gods in the hall.

"I didn't believe it before."

"Now it seems that what those gods down there said was indeed true."

"The divine realm is clearly only filled with seas of clouds, without even a proper mountain, yet it has more mountain peaks than the mortal realm."

"Especially that... Dragon Profound Gang."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere inside the Pantheon instantly became even more strange.

Several deities of the Xuanque lineage lowered their heads subconsciously, trying hard to suppress the corners of their mouths.

The six gods behind Long Xuan all frowned.

Even the Heavenly Balance God King, sitting at the highest point, glanced thoughtfully at Long Xuan.

Long Xuan took a deep breath.

"Xuan Que, don't talk nonsense."

"The divine positions are chosen by the rules of heaven and earth; who can become a god is not something I, the king, can decide."

"Yeah?"

Gu Changjin smiled.

"That's quite a coincidence."

"The entire divine realm contains fewer than thirty gods."

"You yourself are a god-king, your wife is a goddess, your two sworn brothers are also gods, and their wives happen to be gods as well."

"So, all those beings across a dozen continents in the lower realms, who cultivate for a lifetime, can't compare to the talent of your family?"

"If this continues, the realm of gods can no longer be called the realm of gods."

"How about we rename it Dragon Mystic Realm?"

"Anyway, when the meeting is held, the six of you sit in a row, and the other gods just need to nod."

"presumptuous!"

The god of war suddenly stepped forward.

"The Dragon Profound God King has rendered countless merits to the God Realm; how dare you slander him like this!"

Gu Changjin glanced at him.

"What's your hurry?"

"I was talking about Long Xuan, not you."

"Oh, I almost forgot."

"You are his sworn brother."

Finally, someone in the hall couldn't help but let out a soft laugh, but the sound was quickly suppressed.

Long Xuan's face had turned completely black.

"Xuan Que, you're acting very strange today."

"Of course something's wrong."

Gu Changjin nodded without any hesitation.

"I gave you face before and was unwilling to put these things in the open."

"Now that the God King Taixu is dead, I finally understand."

"You, Long Xuan, are largely to blame for the state of the divine realm today."

"Back when you were still in the lower realm, you were just a young man with some talent."

"It was your teacher who guided you on your cultivation path, helped you enter the academy, and searched for resources for you everywhere."

"And then?"

"You became a god along the way, your wife became a god, your brothers became gods."

Where is that teacher who helped you get started?

Long Xuan's expression changed slightly.

Gu Changjin continued:

"I heard that you used to say that 'a teacher for a day is a father for life'."

"As a result, he ascended to the realm of gods and enjoyed endless lifespan."

"The teacher stayed in the mortal realm and didn't even know which way the gate to the divine realm opened."

"Is this what you call respecting teachers and valuing the Way?"

"Furthermore, when the various forces in the lower realm were vying for the relics of the gods, you said that the opportunity of heaven and earth would be seized by the virtuous."

"When it comes to others touching the legacy you left behind, you say that it already has an owner and whoever touches it will die."

"What? Your opportunity is a gift from heaven and earth."

"Are other people's opportunities your private property?"

Inside the Pantheon, the way many gods looked at Long Xuan had changed.

They had heard some of these things.

However, Long Xuan is now so powerful that no one is willing to investigate further.

Things have become interesting now that Gu Changjin has exposed it in public.

The brows of the Heavenly Balance God King gradually furrowed.

"Long Xuan".

"You will need to provide an explanation to the divine realm for these matters later."

Long Xuan finally realized that he couldn't let this "Xuan Que" continue talking.

Whether the other party's identity is problematic or not is no longer important.

If he continues to talk, much of the prestige he has painstakingly maintained over the years will be destroyed today.

"That's enough!"

The power of the ocean suddenly erupted, and Long Xuan's figure vanished instantly.

At the same time, his wife, two sworn brothers, and three other deities also made their move.

The six divine powers intertwined, with the ocean, life, war, judgment, healing, and blooming flowers forming a colossal net that completely sealed off all space around Gu Changjin.

Long Xuan, wielding the Vast Ocean Divine Halberd, appeared behind Gu Changjin.

He showed no mercy in this attack.

The divine halberd fell.

The space inside the Pantheon was shattered inch by inch.

Gu Changjin looked back, as if he wanted to say something more.

boom!

The power of the six deities erupted simultaneously.

His transformed body, the Xuanque God King, exploded into a cloud of blood mist on the spot.

The entire hall fell silent.

Long Xuan gripped the divine halberd and said in a deep voice:

"This person is definitely not Xuan Que."

"The real Xuanque has likely already met with misfortune."

"My sudden action is for the safety of the divine realm."

"An explanation will be given to you all afterwards."

No one responded.

Long Xuan frowned slightly.

He then realized that the gods in the hall were not relaxed at all; on the contrary, they all looked terrified and kept backing away.

Even the Heavenly Balance God King has risen from the highest point.

The first God-King unleashed his full power, staring intently at the outside of the Pantheon.

A sense of unease suddenly rose in Long Xuan's heart.

"What are you looking at?"

Still, no one answered.

Long Xuan slowly turned his head.

The sea of ​​clouds outside the Pantheon has disappeared.

Or rather, the entire sky of the divine realm was completely obscured by something.

An enormous, indescribably large, crimson eye hovered outside the realm of gods.

That single eyeball was larger than the entire realm of gods.

His pupils shifted slightly, and the temples and more than twenty gods in the divine realm were all reflected in them.

The divine halberd in Long Xuan's hand trembled slightly.

"Impossible... What is this!? When did it appear?"

At the edge of the divine realm, the projection that had been shattered by the combined efforts of six gods reassembled.

Gu Changjin's voice also rang out from all directions at the same time.

"You bastard."

"I was having a good time speaking."

"You dare to launch a sneak attack?"

"Good, very good."

The World Dragon, which encircles the world below, has somehow already traversed the turbulent flow of time and space.

The enormous dragon body circled around the divine realm again and again.

The entire God Realm had already fallen into Gu Changjin's embrace.

Those spacetime storms that would have deterred even a second-generation god-king were nothing more than a gentle breeze brushing against his dragon scales.

Long Xuan's face turned deathly pale.

"Was that... just a clone of you?"

"You got it right."

Gu Changjin's laughter shook the heavens and the earth.

"It's a pity there's no reward."

The next instant, the divine realm began to tilt violently.

The gods were so unsteady that even the Pantheon rose from the sea of ​​clouds.

They were horrified to discover that it wasn't the divine realm that was collapsing, but rather that the entire divine realm was being held aloft by the world-encircling true dragon.

Before Gu Changjin's true dragon form, the so-called divine realm was nothing more than a small ball held in someone's claws.

With a roar, the Heavenly Balance God King unleashed the power of the first-generation God King.

"All the gods joined forces!"

"We must not allow it to devour the realm of gods!"

More than twenty divine lights shot into the sky at the same time.

Long Xuan disregarded everything else and thrust the Vast Ocean Divine Halberd with all its divine power toward the heavens.

However, these attacks, powerful enough to destroy the continent, landed on the scales of the World Dragon and only sparked a tiny, insignificant swarm.

Gu Changjin didn't even glance down at him.

The enormous dragon head slowly approached, its abyss-like mouth opening wide.

The entire divine realm, along with the Pantheon, the First God-King, Long Xuan, and all the gods, was swallowed whole.

Crack! The barrier of the divine realm shattered.

Gu Changjin chewed casually for a couple of seconds.

The so-called gods didn't even have time to utter a scream before they were completely refined by the devouring power of the World Dragon.

All sorts of rules and the world's origin accumulated over countless years in the divine realm transformed into a surging torrent, flowing into his dragon body.

That power was so immense that it even gave Gu Changjin a feeling.

At this moment, he had completely exceeded the scope that the original realm of the main world could measure.

After swallowing the divine realm, the World-Rending True Dragon slowly lowered its head.

His gaze fell upon the world below that he was surrounded by.

Gu Changjin remained silent for a moment.

Then, the dragon's claws slowly tightened.

The dragon that encircles the world will eventually devour it.
