God Realm Turmoil: A Hundred-Year Deadline

The Divine Realm, the God Realm Committee.

Inside the magnificent hall, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Five Divine Throne, symbolizing supreme authority, floated in the air, radiating different yet equally boundless Divine Might.

The God of Destruction King sat at the head of the left, his Destruction Intent as deep and unfathomable as a prison; the Life God King accompanied him, full of Life Force, his gentle demeanor carrying an undeniable majesty.

The two God King in the center, one representing Goodness and the other evil, are shrouded in divine light, their auras profound, and they hold sway over order and balance. The Asura God King on the far right has a restrained killing intent, but his gaze is as sharp as a knife.

Today, before these five veteran God King, there is an additional figure— Yu Yuanchen. He did not sit down, but stood in the center of the hall, his posture upright, his aura restrained like the deep sea, yet naturally exuding a New Life atmosphere of creating an era and leading Yongzhen.

Although his current strength is only at the initial level of First-level God, the uniqueness and potential of his Primordial Star Divine Spark allow him to remain neither humble nor arrogant when facing five veteran God King.

The topic is precisely the "Path of Divine Spark" pioneered by Yu Yuanchen and its impact on the order of the Divine Realm.

"Yu Yuanchen," the Godess of Kindness spoke first, his voice calm yet carrying an invisible pressure, "You created this path of ' Divine Spark ' in the lower realm, helping your son become a god. Your heart is commendable, and your will is worthy of emulation."

However, this path is vastly different from the God Position system that has been passed down for millennia in the Divine Realm. To implement it rashly might shake the foundations of the Divine Realm and cause turmoil in the lower realms. What is your explanation?"

Yu Yuanchen had anticipated this question. His expression remained calm as he bowed respectfully, his clear voice echoing throughout the hall. "Reporting to the Goodness senior, the Path of Divine Spark is not about overthrowing, but rather supplementing. Its core purpose is to open another window for those exceptionally talented individuals who aspire to the Great Dao but lack a suitable God Position to inherit."

He analyzed and explained his views in detail:

"Firstly, the Divine Spark and the God Position are essentially of the same origin, both being the ultimate application of laws and power. The Divine Spark can be regarded as the 'core seed' of the God Position, which is purer and focuses on the cultivator's own path."

The two are not contradictory; they may even transform into and complement each other in the future. For example, a person who possesses Divine Spark, if they accumulate enough, may be able to use it as the core to gradually build a complete God Position; while a person who inherits God Position, if they have a profound understanding of their own path, can refine the authority of the God Position, nourish their own Divine Spark, and forge a new path."

Secondly, the Divine Realm has an orderly inheritance system, but the number of God Position is limited and their attributes are fixed.

Throughout the ages, countless individuals of extraordinary talent have been limited in their potential due to a lack of affinity with divine God Position, either wasting their lives or being forced to inherit God Position they did not desire. This has been a loss to the Divine Realm and all the myriad worlds. The Path of Divine Spark offers them a glimmer of hope for transcendence, truly a way to revitalize talent.

"Thirdly," Yu Yuanchen's gaze swept over the five God King, his tone carrying a hint of deeper meaning.

"The Divine Realm has enjoyed peace for a long time, and while order is well-maintained, it is also prone to complacency. Some deities, enjoying eternal life, have neglected their duties, and their ambition has waned. If this continues, the Divine Realm will become like a stagnant pool, unable to cope with the unpredictable changes of the future. The Path of Divine Spark is like throwing a stone into still water; it can create ripples, introduce competition, and urge the gods not to slack off but to strive for excellence. This is not a disruption of order, but rather an injection of vitality."

"Fourthly, the lower realms are teeming with talented individuals. If we can guide more geniuses to ascend through the Path of Divine Spark, it will greatly benefit the strengthening of the Divine Realm's origins and the overall power of the Divine Realm. A great ocean embraces all rivers. If the Divine Realm desires to develop and grow stronger, rather than remaining stagnant, it should have the magnanimity to embrace new things."

Yu Yuanchen's argument was well-reasoned and supported by evidence. It not only clarified the positive significance of the Path of Divine Spark, but also cleverly resolved the potential "threat" it might bring, and linked it to the long-term development of the Divine Realm.

The God of Destruction King spoke at the opportune moment, his voice booming like a bell. "Yu Yuanchen said is not without reason. The Divine Realm does indeed need new blood and vitality. Although this path is new, it is not necessarily going to shake the foundations; on the contrary, it may become a brilliant move for the Divine Realm to cope with future challenges. I believe that it can be allowed to exist, and guided and regulated."

The Life God King nodded slightly and said gently, "All things need metabolism to grow. The Path of Divine Spark may be a new form of 'metabolism.' If guided properly, it will be beneficial and harmless to the Divine Realm. I also support further observation and exploration."

With the two God- Wang Ming of Destruction and Life explicitly expressing their support, Yu Yuanchen's side has gained the upper hand.

However, the Godess of Kindness and the God of Evil exchanged a glance and did not immediately object. The Godess of Kindness slowly said, "Yu Yuanchen's argument is indeed insightful. The Divine Realm is not an inflexible place. However, the God Position hierarchy has been passed down for a long time, concerning the fundamental order of the Divine Realm and involving the rights, responsibilities, and interests of many deities. We must be cautious."

The interface of the God of Evil, with a cold, lawful tone, stated. "The implementation of new laws cannot be decided by the five votes of the God Realm Committee alone. Divine Realm laws must be followed. Changes concerning the fundamental rules of the Divine Realm require the consultation of all the gods."

I propose that a general assembly of all deities in the Divine Realm be convened to vote on the matter of whether to allow the Path of Divine Spark and the God Position Path to run parallel, and to grant corresponding Divine Registry status.

Upon hearing this suggestion, the God of Destruction King frowned slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the Life God King.

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" the God of Destruction King said in a deep voice. "The Path of Divine Spark concerns the future of the Divine Realm. How can it be decided by a bunch of mediocre people based on votes? This is not democracy; it's blatant bureaucracy!"

"Destruction, be careful what you say." The Godess of Kindness's tone turned cold. "The laws of the Divine Realm are supreme. The will of the gods is the decree of the Divine Realm. Do you intend to place yourself above the laws of the Divine Realm and the gods themselves?"

Yu Yuanchen sneered inwardly, but also felt somewhat helpless. This seemingly fair "democratic procedure" was actually a conspiracy between Goodness and evil. There were many gods in the Divine Realm, especially those "retirement" gods who relied on inheriting their divine God Position and enjoying eternal life.

They are accustomed to the existing order and fear any change that might bring uncertainty. The emergence of the Path of Divine Spark has undoubtedly touched a nerve with them—it means that in the future, more ambitious new gods from humble backgrounds may appear, challenging their status and comfort.

Once a vote is held, the outcome is almost predictable—the opponents will inevitably form a majority. At that time, even if the Path of Divine Spark is not explicitly prohibited, it will fall into a de facto illegal situation in the Divine Realm, making it difficult to obtain formal Divine Registry and resource support, and its development will inevitably be hindered.

More profoundly, the actions of Goodness and evil are intended to use this conservative force to suppress Yu Yuanchen, this newly emerging "variable" who is close to Destruction Life, and to maintain their delicate balance within the God Realm Committee.

The Asura God King remained silent, but a barely perceptible glint of calculation flashed deep within his sharp eyes.

He was pleased to see the Destruction faction suffer a setback, but he didn't necessarily genuinely want Goodness and evil to completely control the situation; maintaining some kind of balance would be more advantageous to him.

The situation reached a stalemate. Yu Yuanchen knew that the other side had seized the high ground of "legal principles" and "public opinion," and that forcibly opposing it would only give them ammunition to criticize him.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said calmly, "Since the three God King insist on acting according to the law, Yuanchen has no objection, then let us proceed as agreed and convene God Realm Assembly to vote."

Yu Yuanchen's expression remained unchanged. Although he felt a slight regret, he wasn't too surprised. He had already anticipated that things wouldn't go smoothly.

The waters of the Divine Realm are far deeper than those of the mortal world. "Since the laws are thus, Yuanchen shall naturally abide by them. But I wonder, when will this God Realm Assembly be held?"

"This matter is of great importance and requires careful preparation. It's not too late to discuss it again after a hundred years (in the lower realm)," the Godess of Kindness said calmly, giving a buffer period. A hundred years is but a blink of an eye in the Divine Realm, giving Yu Yuanchen time to maneuver and leaving ample room for observation and action.

"Yuanchen respectfully awaits the decision of the Divine Realm." Yu Yuanchen cupped his hands and said no more. He knew that today's meeting was only the beginning. The real contest would take place outside the meeting, in the next hundred years.

The meeting ended, and the figures of the five God King vanished. Yu Yuanchen also stepped out and left the God Realm Committee.

He did not immediately return to the lower realm, but instead, as was customary, went to the Primordial Star Divine Palace, which was specially built for him in the Divine Realm, to absorb Immortal Spiritual Qi and stabilize and enhance his Primordial Star Divine Spark.

Now, thanks to the profound mysteries of the Primordial Star Divine Spark and the nourishment of a vast amount of Immortal Spiritual Qi, his Cultivation Level has stabilized at the level of First-level Deity (approximately level 131 or 132), and is still steadily improving.

He has also made some progress in his understanding and fusion of many laws such as thunder, Destruction, Life, space, and time. His Primordial Star God Position is constantly being improved, and his combat power is increasing day by day.

He was confident that, apart from the five unfathomable Divine Realm -God King, he could easily defeat even Poseidon, the veteran First-level Deity wielding the Super Divine Artifact, the Sea God's Trident.

Even when facing God King, with the uniqueness of Primordial Star Divine Spark and some of his hidden methods, although he dares not claim victory, it is not impossible for him to maneuver and protect himself.

While Yu Yuanchen was meditating in the Divine Realm, in a hidden dimensional space somewhere within the Divine Realm...

The figures of the three God King — the Goodness, the evil, Asura— quietly converged.

"Destruction and Life have provided considerable support to this child," the God of Evil said coldly. "If the Path of Divine Spark truly gains momentum, it will indeed strengthen the foundation of the Divine Realm in the long run. But in the short term, it will only bolster the influence of the Destruction faction."

The Godess of Kindness sighed, "It's not that we're unaware of the benefits of this path, but the time isn't right. Only after our plan is complete and we have thoroughly seized control of the God Realm Committee can we maximize its benefits and prevent it from threatening our position. To bind it to Destruction now is truly not a wise strategy."

The Asura God King finally spoke, his voice hoarse yet magnetic. "Destruction was able to nurture Yu Yuanchen, partly due to his extraordinary talent, but without Destruction's early, secret attention and perhaps even some unspeakable assistance, how could his growth have been so rapid?"

"If he can train one, surely the three of us working together can train someone who can keep Yu Yuanchen in check?"

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in the eyes of Goodness and the evil. They had long harbored this intention! Yu Yuanchen's sudden emergence shattered the balance of power among the five kings that had been maintained in the Divine Realm for countless years.

Destruction and Life are inherently intertwined, and now with the addition of Yu Yuanchen as a variable, the situation is subtly shifting to three against two (the Asura's attitude is ambiguous, but he often leans towards Goodness evil). If this cannot be balanced, the future God Realm Committee may truly be dominated by the Destruction faction.

Cultivating a new God King who is inclined to their side! This is the plan they have been secretly plotting! Although cultivating a God King Level being is extremely difficult, by combining the power of three God King and searching through all the heavens and myriad worlds, they may not be unable to find a suitable candidate.

Even if the final God King's strength is slightly inferior to Yu Yuanchen's, as long as a four-on-three situation can be formed, it will be enough to regain the initiative!

"The selection of candidates must be careful. They must have a clean background, be of the highest quality in terms of character, talent, and potential, and must agree with our ideals," the Godess of Kindness pondered.

"The lower realms are vast, and there are always unpolished gems waiting to be polished." A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the God of Evil. "A hundred years is enough time for us to lay our groundwork."

The Asura God King nodded slightly. "This matter must be carried out in secrecy, and it is not advisable to alarm Destruction and Life too early. As for Yu Yuanchen, let him do what he wants for now. The voting results of the God Realm Assembly are destined to frustrate him, which will be a good opportunity to dampen his spirits."

The three God King reached a consensus, and their figures slowly dissipated into the hidden space. Beneath the calm surface, an undercurrent surrounding the future structure of the Divine Realm was quietly surging.

Although Yu Yuanchen did not fully understand the specific plans of the three kings of Goodness, evil, Asura, he knew that they would never sit idly by and watch him and the Alliance of Destruction of Life grow stronger.

The century-long buffer period presents both challenges and opportunities. He needs to use this time to further solidify his foundation and expand his influence in the lower realms, while also remaining vigilant against potential schemes from the shadows.

The Wind and Clouds in the Divine Realm arose because of him, and will change because of him. The road ahead is destined to be bumpy. But Yu Yuanchen's Dao heart is firm, and he is fearless. He wants to see where this game of chess in the Divine Realm will ultimately lead!
