Profound God Convention Final

"God Emperor, it is the final day of the Profound God Convention," Tai Yu informed his emperor.

"I don't know why, but I have a very bad feeling, Tai Yu," Eternal Heaven God Emperor Zhou Xuzi confided in his subordinate. The terrifying phenomenon that had occurred previously had left him with fears. He just couldn't shake the feeling that something was about to go wrong later today.

"Lord God Emperor, who would dare to do anything here? This is the Eternal Heaven Realm, and besides, the Dragon Monarch, Ten Directions Deep Sea God Emperor, and Moon God Emperor will be present as well. Any trouble that arises will just be snuffed out," Tai Yu reassured him.

"I might just be worrying too much," Zhou Xuzi conceded.

.....

"So the Star God Emperor won't be attending?" he asked Tai Yu.

"Correct, my Lord. Due to the death of their Star God, the Star God Emperor won't be attending the Profound God Convention," Tai Yu replied.

"The death of a Star God has shaken the God Realm itself. They are pillars of their realm, just like how Guardians are to ours. The Star God Emperor won't let it go if he ever finds out who did it," Zhou Xuzi sighed, hoping that nothing bad would happen.

"Let's go, then," Zhou Xuzi said to Tai Yu.

"As you command, my Lord."

------------------------------

"WHO DID THIS?! WHO DARES TO KILLED OUR STAR GOD?!" The Star God Emperor roared with a voice full of anger and hatred. The mere thought of someone harming their Star God sent shivers down the spine of his subordinates.

In a previous incident, when he was caught by Moon Flower, he believed she deserved to be punished even killed outright, and he even sealed the space around them to prevent her from escaping. But in the end, he chose not to.

----

"Remove all memories of today, Moon Flower," the Star God Emperor ordered.

"Thank you, my lord," Moon Flower replied fearfully as she erased her memory of the event. The Star God Emperor had already changed into his new clothing before she did so.

...

"Moon Flower, return to our realm," the Star God Emperor commanded as he dispelled the sealed space. Confused and disoriented, Moon Flower called out to the emperor.

"Should I take the teleporting portal?" she asked.

"Just go! I don't care!" the emperor screamed in anger.

Without another word, Moon Flower hurriedly left the scene, not knowing that it would be the last time she would be alive.

----

"Who could it be!!!... Jasmine?!!? No, it can't be her. Even though she and Moon Flower didn't get along, there's no reason for her to do this," the Star God Emperor exclaimed.

"Close our realm and recall all of our Star Gods and Star Guards, no matter where they are or what they're doing!" the Star God Emperor commanded, his voice filled with rage and urgency.

----

"Yun Che, it seems like I won't be able to witness your final battle. Please take good care of yourself," a melancholic voice uttered, as a tear descended from the sky.

"Hmm! I don't know who eliminated that bitch Moon Flower, but I express my sincere gratitude from the bottom of my heart!"

-------------------------

"Changsheng?!" Luo Guxie's voice rang out in disbelief as she gazed upon the young man before her.

"Changsheng greets his master," Luo Changsheng said, cupping his hands together in a sign of respect.

"How did you...?" Luo Guxie was perplexed. The young man in front of her had undergone a drastic transformation in a short span of time, evident in his aura, strength, and gaze. It was as though he had reverted back to the untouchable and tranquil Young Master Changsheng, with eyes free of animosity.

"During the time spent in the Heavenly Land, I was able to find a supreme treasure by luck" Luo Changsheng said with a smile.

"If it's alright with you, Master, I will go see her now. Afterward, we can proceed to the Profound God Convention," Luo Changsheng added before flying off without waiting for Luo Guxie's response.

"...his cultivation..." Luo Guxie trailed off, watching Luo Changsheng depart.

-------------------------

Moon God Realm

At the moment, a young woman is grasping the hand of another woman who is lying sick in bed.

Despite not wearing any makeup, her countenance is faultless, as if the heavens themselves have meticulously crafted it to perfection. Her skin is akin to the phrase "bones of jade, flesh of ice", with no blemish on any part of her facial features, her alabaster complexion, or her ruby lips.

Yet, her flawless appearance also emanates a chill and sanctity that deflects any gaze. She exudes an air of a pure, unblemished fairy who dwells in a realm above the nine heavens.

"Mother, the Profound God Convention will be concluding shortly, and adopted father will be returning soon," she whispered to the woman lying in bed.

"Then your lifelong desires will finally be fulfilled," the woman whispered again.

--------------------------------

On the final day of the Profound God Convention, numerous powerful profound arks soared through the sky as many formidable cultivators made their way toward the Conferred God Battle Stage. Amidst the crowd, there were voices of anticipation as well as relief that the prolonged battle would finally reach its conclusion.

After all, there was no doubt about the outcome of this fight. In their previous encounter, Luo Changsheng had already attained the Divine King Realm while Yun Che was only at the Divine Tribulation level nine, a significant difference of one great realm and one small realm! Yun Che's absence had caused many to speculate that he was simply delaying the inevitable defeat.

While some are already convinced of the outcome of the fight, with little hope for Yun Che to emerge victorious unless a miracle occurs, there are still those who believe in him. One such believer is a young girl whose voice could be heard ringing out amidst the crowd.

"Daddy!! Let go, Big Brother Yun Che will be here soon!!!" she exclaimed, her excitement palpable as she pulled a middle-aged man along with her across the sky of the Eternal Heaven Realm.

The young girl appeared to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in a long, black half-sleeve skirt that flowed out behind her. Her black hair billowed in the wind, cascading down her back all the way to her ankles. Around her slender waist was a black butterfly-shaped sash, and even her jade-like shoes shone with a dim light akin to that of black crystals.

She resembled a dainty fairy who had emerged from the depths of a dark night, exuding an air of dangerous mystique from her black hair and black skirt. Her skin was as radiant and fair as jade and porcelain, adding to her alluring presence that defied her young age.

"Meiyin, slow down," cautioned her father, a middle-aged man by the name of Shui Qianheng. He was the Realm King of the Glazed Light Realm, one of the top three High-Rank Star Realms.

"Meiyin, please slow down," chimed in another voice.

"Sister, let's go, let's go!" urged the speaker, eager in the excitement.

-----------------------------

"Master, Sect Master Juehai, and Sect Master Wancang, why do you all look so...strange?" questioned a perplexed young man as he observed the three sect masters before him.

"Ahahaha...ahahaha..." cackled the three sect masters, their hearts still racing from their recent experience at the God Burying Inferno Prison's border.

"Poyun, what you witness at the Profound Convention today is likely to intimidate you. However, do not lose heart just because there is always someone better than you," advised his master cryptically, leaving Huo Poyun confused yet nodding along in agreement.

----------------------------

As everyone settled into their designated seating areas on the vast arena, a concerned voice rang out from a senior elder of the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect.

"Bingyun, where is Yun Che?!" urgently inquired Mu Huanzhi, turning to Mu Bingyun for answers.

"I don't know his whereabouts at the moment, and I can't get in contact with the Sect Master either," replied Mu Bingyun, her expression reflecting helplessness. Since parting ways with Yun Che and her sister Mu Xuanyin a few days ago, she had been unable to establish communication with either of them.

Though she knew that they should be safe at the bottom of the Heavenly Netherforst Lake, she couldn't shake off her worry that something might have gone wrong. All she could do was pray that Yun Che would make it in time for the fight, recognizing its significance to him.

As she was lost in her thoughts, formidable auras filled the sky, indicating the arrival of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor and his retinue onto the stage.

"We pay respected to the God Emperor"

Voices paying respect to the God Emperor echoed throughout the Conferred God Battle Stage as the audience stood up to welcome him.

With a wave of his hand, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor signaled for everyone to take their seats and relax.

"Wahahaha! It seems you all are early for the fight, huh? Excited much?!"As he descended to his former seat, the voice of God Emperor Cang Shitian reverberated in the air.

"Quiet Cang Shitian!"

Ten Directions Deep Sea God Emperor Cang Shitian was met with a piercing glare from Eternal Heaven God Emperor, who seemed to be capable of killing him with just a look.

"You're all too worked up over a mere children's fight," Cang Shitian remarked, his voice carrying across the Conferred God Battle Stage.

The eyebrows of nearly everyone present began to twitch uncontrollably as they listened to Cang Shitian's words. It was clear that he had arrived early to observe the battle, but no one dared to point it out, lest they suffer the same fate worse than death.

Feeling powerless, the Eternal God Emperor chose to completely disregard Cang Shitian.

All eyes turned towards the sky as several more potent auras descended upon the stage.

"The Brahma Goddess has arrived!"

Numerous pairs of eyes turned towards the new arrival, regardless of their age. The Brahma Goddess was considered one of the two most stunning women in the entire God Realm, alongside the Dragon Queen. Any man would willingly give their life just for a glimpse of her face, but unfortunately, she still had her mask on, as usual. Everyone was so captivated by the Goddess that they completely forgot about her father, the Brahma God Emperor, who appeared cold on the outside but seemed to stiffen up internally.

It took quite some time for many pairs of eyes to regain their composure, but even though they couldn't see her face, the Goddess's figure alone surpassed that of all women they have ever seen.

Then, a dominant aura, surpassing even that of the previous God Emperors, made its way to the arena and settled at the most esteemed spot.

"The Dragon Monarch has graced us with his presence!" Voices echoed throughout the arena once more, and this time, not only did the practitioners from the Lower Realms, Middle Realms, and Upper Realms rise to greet the new arrival, but even the mighty King Realm's practitioners and God Emperors also stood up to acknowledge the Dragon Monarch.

"It seems that everyone has arrived," The Dragon Monarch smiled as he looked around at those present and gestured for everyone to relax.

It was surprising to see that even a Dragon Monarch had arrived early for a junior's fight. This alone granted Yun Che and Luo Changsheng unprecedented honor that no one had ever received in their entire lives.

"Your Highness, it appears that everyone except the participants has arrived," The Eternal God Emperor said.

"Hmm," The Dragon Monarch softly replied.

An emissary of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor descended into the center of the Conferred God Battle Stage to deliver a message. "The Eternal Heaven Realm is grateful for the participants who have brought forth many thrilling battles in the Conferred God stage thus far. However, the time has come for the final fight," announced Qu Hui, the overseer of the battle stage.

Qu Hui turned his gaze towards the Divine Phoenix seating area and addressed Mu Bingyun, "Has Yun Che recovered from his injuries?"

Mu Bingyun replied, "Venerable Qu Hui, I can confirm that Yun Che has recovered." Despite her answer, she couldn't help but feel anxious and prayed for Yun Che's timely arrival.

Venerable Qu Hui glanced towards the section where the Holy Eaves Realm practitioners were seated and inquired, "Where is Luo Changsheng?"

Luo Changsheng's father, the Realm King of the Holy Eaves Realm, Luo Shangchen, began to answer, "Changsheng should be here--" but was interrupted as two auras soared across the Eternal Heaven Realm towards the Conferred God Battle Stage.

One of the auras belonged to Luo Guxie, while the other belonged to Luo Changsheng, a participant in the Conferred God Battle Stage. Although only two auras were perceptible, there were actually three people approaching. Luo Changsheng was carrying a young woman in his arms as they leisurely flew towards the crowd.

Elders from various sects and realms, God Emperors, and even the Dragon Monarch were shocked as they witnessed Luo Changsheng's aura. In unison, they all stood up and exclaimed, "WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT?????!!!!"

The younger generation was left bewildered by the reactions of the elders.

"Di...Di...Divine...Divine King Rank Three!?!!!"

Successive God Emperors exclaimed in unison as they verified Luo Changsheng's aura.

"Di...Di...Divine...Divine King Rank Three?!!!"

The fact that Luo Changsheng had become a Divine King at such a young age was already a shock to everyone. However, they were able to accept it, considering his status as the Holy Eaves Realm's greatest genius. But the idea of him achieving another break thou, much less two small realms at that was beyond belief! Just three days ago, he just step into the realm of Divine King!!! It was true that he possessed five Time Wheel Pearls bestowed upon him by the Eternal Heaven God Emperor, but even with that, he only had a total of around fifteen months to cultivate.

Are you saying that he was able to progress through two small realms in just fifteen months? That's utter nonsense!

"Changsheng...you are my greatest pride...."

Luo Shangchen's voice was filled with disbelief as he confirmed the identity of the person in front of him to be Luo Changsheng. "This is my son!!!! HAHAHA!"

Luo Changsheng gently placed Xīn Yán down and gazed at her with affection in his eyes. "Yán'er, please wait for me here, alright?" His voice was filled with tenderness and warmth, enough to soften any woman's heart. However, despite his charm, the onlookers remained in awe of his exceptional cultivation level.

Xīn Yán replied with a slightly pale face, "Yes, Young Master."

Without another word, Luo Changsheng soared towards the center of the Conferred God Battle Stage, leaving the spectators in utter shock. He calmly settled himself down and closed his eyes to meditate, appearing unconcerned about his surroundings.

Dragon Monarch, visibly shaken, turned to the Eternal God Emperor and asked with a tremble in his voice, "E...E...Eternal...Eternal God Emperor, you didn't distribute the wrong kind of Time Wheel Pearls, did you?"

With a quivering lip, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor replied, "There is absolutely no possibility of that happening." He reassured the onlookers that the Time Wheel Pearls given to Yun Che and Luo Changsheng were of the highest quality that their production could offer. There was no chance of any mix-up or mistake occurring.

"FUUUUUUCKKKKKK!!!! WHAT THE FUUUCCCKKK!!!!"

Suddenly, a voice filled with shock, horror, and even jealousy could be heard from Cang Shitian. He had previously expressed envy at the fact that the Southern Divine Region had never produced a Divine King at the young age of thirty. But now, he was utterly astounded.

"It appears that the Eastern Divine Region is truly blessed by the gods... Perhaps this miracle is born for the 'Crimson Calamity,'" the Dragon Monarch remarked.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor expressed his agreement with a nod. He hoped that the miracle was indeed born for the "Crimson Calamity." However, regardless of whether this was the case or not, Luo Changsheng's light, which had previously shone brighter than the rest, now appeared even more radiant and captivating to those who beheld it.

"What in the world...?!!!" Huo Rulie and the two sect masters were left in utter shock as they whispered to themselves.

"Divine King Rank Three!!!... Does this mean that the Yun boy could be slapped to death with just a single palm? No, perhaps just a single finger would suffice?!" Shui Qianheng exclaimed.

"What happened?!! How did he make a breakthrough two rank in such a short period of time?!!! Even attaining the level of Divine King was already a difficult feat for us God Children to achieve at our ages. But now, he has surpassed us even further!" Shui Yingyue was perplexed. She had previously believed that although she was not at the same power level, she could eventually catch up to Luo Changsheng. However, now her Dao heart is slightly shaken.

Looking over at Luo Changsheng, Mu Bingyun's heart was filled with fear and anxiety as she silently pleaded inside her mind, "Please, Yun Che, do not come here!"

The thought of Yun Che appearing at the fight filled Mu Bingyun with terror. She knew that Luo Changsheng harbored pure hatred for him after their previous encounter. Now that Luo Changsheng have become even stronger than before, if Yun Che were to appear, he could easily be killed with just a flick of a finger.

As Mu Bingyun silently prayed for Yun Che to stay away, everyone suddenly looked up towards the sky as another aura approached them at a leisurely pace. Soon, their eyes widened in shock and many cultivators fell to the ground, their legs trembling in fear.

"WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!" This is the only things all cultivators, from just the lowly one to God Emperors, all of them have only this one thought though their hearts and souls.

High in the sky Yun Che flying towards the Conferred God Battle Stage at leisure pace.

He did not hide his aura at all as the aura of Divine Sovereign spread throughout the world.
