"Senior, do you know how to break through to the God Realm?"

Chen Xun's expression was grave.

Ever since reaching the Level 99 Peerless Realm, he had been able to clearly sense that unshakable bottleneck.

If he relied solely on Soul Power to break through, then even after cultivating for another hundred years, he likely would not be able to shake that invisible barrier.

Even figures as powerful as Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen had made no further progress despite remaining at the peak of Level 99 for years.

There was clearly something wrong with this.

Chen Luo heard this and gazed into the distance before slowly speaking.

"Before I tell you the Method of Becoming a God, there are some things you need to know."

"Since you have already seen treasures from countless worlds in the Myriad Worlds Mall, you should understand that so-called Gods are merely Soul Masters who have climbed to greater heights."

Chen Xun nodded. He had long suspected as much.

Those divine artifacts in the Myriad Worlds Mall, capable of tearing apart stars and controlling life and death, had long since shattered his fixed perception of Gods.

Seeing that Chen Xun understood, Chen Luo's voice suddenly turned solemn.

"But there is one thing you need to know."

"When a Soul Master breaks through Level 100 and ascends to the God Realm, it is not a choice, but an ironclad law."

"The God Realm Laws are strict and will never permit God-level Power to remain in the mortal world."

"And once you ascend..."

Chen Luo paused, a profound glint flashing through his eyes as he said,

"You will also be forcibly incorporated into the God Realm's system, no longer a mortal."

"Forcibly..."

Those three words sent a chill down Chen Xun's spine.

He recalled what Chen Luo had said earlier.

Gods were merely more powerful humans.

And since they were human, they could not escape emotions, desires, selfishness, and distracting thoughts.

If becoming a God meant having his fate controlled and restricted by more powerful beings,

then so-called ascension was merely stepping into a larger cage.

"The God Realm's actions are not without reason."

As if seeing through his thoughts, Chen Luo said,

"God-level experts and mortal Soul Masters are as different as clouds and mud. If they remain in the mortal world, a mere gesture could overturn order and destroy continents."

"The God Realm is not an absolute dictatorship either. It is governed by five God Kings, while the Three Great Law Enforcement Gods maintain order. You will learn about these matters in time."

Chen Luo shifted the topic back to the main point.

"Now, it is time to speak of the true methods of becoming a God."

"The reason mortal Soul Masters cannot become Gods is because they are constrained by the laws of this world. Without a method to break those laws, even cultivating for tens of millions of years would be futile."

"There are two methods of becoming a God. The first is to seek the inheritance of a God, gain their recognition, and complete the trials they have set."

"Once you complete the trials, you will directly inherit their divine position and ascend in a single step."

"This is the most common and simplest path to becoming a God."

"Of course, the drawbacks of this method are also obvious."

"A fountain can never rise higher than its source, and your strength can never surpass that of the God whose divine position you inherit."

This was also why Chen Luo had no intention of becoming a second Dragon God. With the system, his potential had no limit; there was absolutely no need for him to be constrained by this universe.

Chen Xun nodded. He would never consider such a method of becoming a God that cut off his own future.

Chen Luo immediately continued.

"As for the second method of becoming a God... it is to create your own divine position and become a God through Faith."

"This method is a hundred times more difficult than the first. It can only be accomplished through a Soul Master's own talent and strength."

"Gods who create their own divine positions can also be called First Generation Gods. Their strength is often greater than those who rely on inherited divine positions."

"For example, Poseidon, the genius Soul Master from tens of thousands of years ago. He relied on his own talent to unify the seas, then broke through Level 100 with the power of all living beings' faith and created the divine position of the Sea God."

After hearing these two methods, Chen Xun frowned slightly and asked in confusion,

"But Senior, whether it is the first method or the second, neither seems to avoid ascending to the God Realm."

"Is there no other way?"

"If becoming a God means being restricted and bound, then I would rather not become a God at all."

Chen Xun had become stronger for the sword in his hand.

He could not accept such methods of becoming a God.

At this, Chen Luo chuckled and said,

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to hurry. I have not finished."

"There are indeed only these two methods of becoming a God, but... that is only for Soul Masters of this world."

"And we have other methods."

Chen Luo picked up the Myriad Laws Mirror in his hand and continued with a smile.

"You and I both have the qualifications to enter the God Domain. Do you think the Realm Master would have us join the God Domain using such lowly methods of becoming a God?"

"As long as we work hard to complete tasks and earn Contribution Points, what method of becoming a God could we not obtain?"

"I cannot speak for anything else, but there are likely no fewer than millions of methods for breaking through to the God Realm being sold in the Myriad Worlds Mall alone."

"This is not something you should worry about."

Chen Luo's words instantly enlightened Chen Xun!

That's right!

I have the Myriad Laws Mirror given by the Realm Master. As long as I have Contribution Points, what method of becoming a God could I not obtain?

At this thought,

Chen Xun felt even greater reverence for the Realm Master.

The further he cultivated, the more he could sense the terror of the Realm Master.

He was truly a God in every sense of the word.

"Thank you, Senior, for clearing up my doubts. It was Chen who became too fixated and nearly took the wrong path."

"I must work even harder to complete tasks, earn Contribution Points, and join the God Domain as soon as possible."

Chen Xun's gaze was incomparably resolute.

It made Chen Luo feel somewhat embarrassed.

It was as if he had deliberately brainwashed Chen Xun.

"By the way, there is one more matter in which I would like to ask for Senior's help."

"After completing the task of defeating Qian Daoliu, I was rewarded with another five million Contribution Points."

"To be honest, after browsing for so long, I truly cannot find any treasures suitable for myself. It is rather embarrassing."

"I would trouble Senior to select several suitable treasures for me."

Chen Xun spoke respectfully.

Just then,

Both Chen Luo's and Chen Xun's Myriad Laws Mirrors sounded at once.

God Realm Preliminary Group Not Just Targeting the Poison God: Good evening, fellow Daoists. This is a blessed land that I happened to find. It is filled with many rare and exotic herbs I have never seen before. I am ashamed to say that although I have considerable experience, I can only identify a very small portion of the herbs in this place. Do either of you recognize these herbs and know their effects? If you do, I will certainly reward you generously! (Smile) Not Just Targeting the Poison God: (Image) (Image) (Image)

Immediately afterward, Dugu Bo sent over full images of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"Huh, this Dugu Bo learns rather quickly. He already knows how to take photos and upload them?"

Chen Luo thought in surprise.

"So it was a message from Senior Poison God."

"Senior, do you recognize the herbs in Senior Poison God's herb garden?"

Chen Xun asked curiously.

"I do."

Chen Luo replied calmly.

With the Eye of Insight, he could examine all things in the world. Let alone herbs, even if he were shown only a single root or stem, he could read all the information about that herb.

"As expected of Senior. You are even versed in the knowledge of herbs. Chen truly admires you."

Chen Xun's admiration for Chen Luo grew even deeper.

But just then, Chen Luo suddenly turned to Chen Xun and chuckled.

"Didn't Fellow Daoist just ask what treasures would be suitable to buy with your points?"

Chen Xun nodded.

Chen Luo then pointed at the herbs in Dugu Bo's garden.

"Aren't these all of them?"
