Finale (Part 1)

Upon hearing this, many people looked up at them, their faces showing fatigue, but their eyes shining.

Qian Xunji descended from the sky, his gaze sweeping over the ravaged Spirit City: "What happened? Why has it become like this again?"

A bishop covered in dust rushed forward and reported, "Not long ago, a large number of monsters suddenly appeared; they are quite powerful."

"Fortunately, the Grand Pontiff intervened in time, leading the elders of the Worship Hall to seal the cracks and wipe out all the monsters, thus preventing the fall of Spirit City."

Ling Yuan asked anxiously, "Is everyone alright?"

"Most were injured, Grand Pontiff was unharmed."

Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong exchanged a glance, asked no more questions, and the three of them headed towards the Spirit Hall.

Just as they reached the entrance of the hall, Qian Daoliu led Qian Renxue out from inside, hand in hand.

Behind him were Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and a group of elders.

"Dad! Mom!"

Qian Renxue let go of her grandfather's hand and ran towards them.

The couple bent down at the same time, one from the left and the other from the right, and together they took their daughter into their arms.

Bi Xiaoxiao emerged from the crowd, buried her face in Ling Yuan's arms, and burst into tears.

"Mom... Mom, you're back. I was so afraid you wouldn't be able to come back either."

Ling Yuan squatted down and hugged her daughter tightly.

"I'm sorry, I made Xiao Xiao worry."

Qian Daoliu stood on the steps, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Hu Liena clutched Xie Yue's sleeve and whispered, "His Holiness the Pope and His Dean the Dean have both returned." Xie Yue nodded without saying a word.

The elders also remained silent, none of them willing to break the tranquility of the moment.

Bibi Dong squatted down, placed her hands on Qian Renxue's shoulders, and looked her up and down. "Xiao Xue, how come your Soul Power has increased by three levels?"

"Because he killed many demons."

Is there a connection between the two?

"Because with each one I kill, a surge of power flows into my Martial Soul."

"Grandpa said my Angel Martial Soul has a natural advantage against dark attributes. After slaying demons, I can receive a boost, which is much faster than cultivation."

"I see." Bibi Dong nodded, then looked up and waved to the crowd, "Nana, come here."

Hu Liena blinked and ran to Bibi Dong: "Teacher."

Bibi Dong took something out of her bosom; it was a crystal that was entirely azure blue.

This is the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, a national treasure she discovered in the Heaven Dou Royal Family Treasury a few days ago.

She placed the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in Hu Liena's palm. "This is a treasure I found in the Heaven Dou Royal Family Treasury, called the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. It has extremely strong defensive capabilities. Wearing it will protect you in case of danger."

Hu Liena held the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in both hands, its azure light reflecting on her youthful face.

"Thank you, teacher. I will definitely cultivate diligently and live up to your expectations."

"Yes, I believe in you."

Bibi Dong straightened up, shifting her gaze from Hu Liena, and solemnly announced, "We are leaving this place."

Bi Dashan stared at her blankly. "Daughter, where are you going?"

"Go to the Divine Realm."

"Xiao Xi's soul is still in the Soul Storage Bottle. To revive him, we must go to the Divine Realm."

"Moreover, the mainland has suffered greatly from the Dark Turmoil and the Demon Turmoil, so we need to go up there to see if there is a way to recover."

Liu Xiulan's eyes immediately reddened.

She grabbed Bibi Dong's hand. "Can you... come back?"

Bibi Dong was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Qian Xunji: "Can he come back?"

"Once we go to the Divine Realm, we can't come back, but Divine Realm are quotas for bringing family and friends up there."

"God King can bring three, First-Class God can bring one. Dong'er is the Asura God King, so he gets three spots. I am First-Class God, so I get one spot."

Bibi Dong pressed further, "Don't you still have the Divine Position of God of Time? Shouldn't you have an extra spot?"

Qian Xunji shook her head. "I don't know. My God of Time wasn't obtained through inheritance either."

"So, once we reach the Divine Realm, we'll have to discuss with the God Realm Committee what level the Law of Time will be at."

Qian Daoliu asked, "Have you reached an agreement?"

"We've already discussed the issue of the quota."

Qian Daoliu nodded. "So who are you going to take up there?"

Qian Xunji's gaze swept across everyone's faces. "We're planning to bring my father-in-law and mother-in-law, Ling Yuan, and Xiao Xi."

"Ling Yuan was something we had planned long ago. Xiao Xi needs her, and she needs Xiao Xi."

"As for my parents-in-law—their physical condition and talent are not up to the Titled Douluo. Even if they stay on the Douluo Continent, they will eventually leave in a few decades."

"Upon reaching the Divine Realm, the divine environment will grant both of you immortality."

Bi Xiaoxiao held Ling Yuan's hand, looked up at her with a face full of reluctance, and asked, "Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, are you all leaving?"

Bi Dashan and Liu Xiulan exchanged a glance.

They looked at each other, and finally Bi Dashan said, "We won't go."

"Having lived here my whole life, let's give this spot to Xiao Xiao."

Liu Xiulan nodded, "Yes, we're doing fine here. Your rescue of Xiao Xi is more important than anything else."

Qian Xunji shook his head. "Xiao Xiao has very high talent, and with Twin Martial Souls, she has a great chance to become a god on her own in the future."

"This spot doesn't need to be given to her; she can definitely get it on her own."

He turned around, his gaze falling on Qian Daoliu: "As for Father, you just need to focus on helping Xiao Xue complete the nine exams."

"Xiao Xue's Nine Trials of the Angel still require your full guidance. No one can replace you in this matter. As for the rest, leave it to me."

Qian Daoliu looked at his son, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly nodded. "Alright, I hope everything goes well for you in the Divine Realm."

"Um."

At this moment, Qian Renxue stepped forward and hugged Bibi Dong, then turned around and hugged Qian Xunji.

"Goodbye, Mom and Dad. I'll come up to find you."

Hu Liena stood behind Bibi Dong, her eyes also reddening.

"Teacher, me too. I will cultivate diligently and go to the Divine Realm to find you in the future."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Bibi Dong reached out and gently patted Hu Liena's head.

At the same time, Bi Xiaoxiao hugged Ling Yuan's leg, looked up, and her Big Eye filled with tears.

"Mom, I will try my best. You and Dad have to wait for me."

Ling Yuan knelt down and cupped her daughter's face in her hands. "Okay, Mommy and Daddy are really looking forward to it."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong stood side by side.

The Divine Brand on the two lit up simultaneously, and the two beams of light intertwined, shooting straight into the sky, piercing through the sky above Spirit City and establishing communication with the distant Divine Realm.

Guided by two beams of divine light, the passage to the Divine Realm slowly opened, and a golden pillar of light pierced down from the sky.

Two divine Divine Envoy dressed in white priestly robes emerged from the pillar of light, bowed respectfully to Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong, and then stepped aside to lead the way.

Qian Xunji took Bibi Dong's hand, and the two stepped into the golden passage side by side.

Behind them, Bi Dashan supported Liu Xiulan, while Ling Yuan held the Soul Storage Bottle.

The group followed the two Divine Envoy and embarked on the road to the Divine Realm.

Qian Xunji turned around and glanced at this familiar place.

He has lived here for over a decade since he transmigrated, and it's his home now. No matter how reluctant he is to leave, he can't stay here any longer.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, the view suddenly opened up before us.

At the end of the passage was a boundless sea of clouds, within which floated numerous celestial mountains.

The air is filled with a rich spiritual energy; taking a breath makes one feel refreshed and relaxed. It's no exaggeration to call it a paradise on earth.

"You've arrived." A familiar voice came from not far away.

Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong looked in the direction of the sound at the same time, and saw the Asura God, the God of Light, and a blonde woman wearing a long golden dress walking slowly from the end of the sea of clouds.

The Asura God wore dark red divine armor and had a majestic appearance.

Qian Xunji stepped forward. "Asura God, God of Light."

The God of Light nodded slightly. "I thought you would be waiting much longer to come up."

Qian Xunji straightened up and said frankly, "Something happened."

"A portal to a Demon Plane has appeared on the mainland. Although the Demon God is dead, he left behind many problems, and dealing with the aftermath has taken some time."

The Asura God nodded. "We are all aware of what happened in the Douluo Plane. The Dark Turmoil and the Demon Turmoil have indeed caused quite a stir in the Douluo Plane."

"In a moment, I will have the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction join forces to revive the ecology of the Douluo Plane."

Qian Xunji thanked her.

At this moment, the God of Light turned his head to look at the blonde woman beside him, his tone tinged with mockery. "Aren't you going to say hello to your descendants?"

Qian Xunji was taken aback, his gaze falling on the blonde woman.

She wore a long robe adorned with golden feather patterns, and her face bore a resemblance to Qian Renxue, but her features possessed a gentler yet more dignified air.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Qian Yuhan, and I am Angel God."

Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong exclaimed in unison, "Ancestor!"

Qian Yuhan looked at the young couple before her and said, "You are both outstanding. I am very gratified that the Angel Inheritance I left behind has been passed down to this day in your lineage."

Qian Xunji raised his head. "The inheritance of Qian Renxue still needs to be entrusted to our ancestors."

"Her Nine Trials of the Angel are about to begin. My father is guiding her from below, but the tests by the Angel God ultimately originate from our ancestors. If she can receive their blessing—"

Qian Yuhan shook her head, a hint of regret in her eyes. "I cannot help her; the divine power I left in the Angel God Divine Position is almost exhausted."

She paused, then said, "But you don't need to worry. I sensed that child; her talent and temperament far surpass those of ordinary people."

"The Nine Trials of the Angel are not a test for her, but a trial. I believe she can handle it all on her own."

Qian Xunji scratched his head. "I also believe Xiao Xue will be fine."

After they finished catching up, the Asura God stepped forward and said, "The priests will take you to your respective Temple of God."

"A spatial passage can be opened between the two Temple of God at any time, so there's no need to worry about them being separated. Furthermore..."

He looked at Qian Xunji, "Regarding your Divine Position God of Time, I have submitted it for review to the God Realm Committee."

"Judging from the strength of your Law of Time demonstration, being named God King is entirely within your reach. We will inform you of the specific results later."

Ten days later in the Divine Realm...

During these ten days, the God Realm Committee completed the formal review of the Divine Position of the God of Time.

As the Asura God had predicted, Qian Xunji's Law of Time was jointly assessed by all the God King of the God Realm Committee, confirming that his strength far exceeded that of First-Class God, and that he fully possessed the combat power and authority of God King.

The God Realm Committee officially passed a resolution to add a sixth seat— the God King of Time —in addition to the Five Great God Kings.

Thus, Qian Xunji became the first God King in the history of the Divine Realm to simultaneously hold the God of Light Divine Position and Divine Position of Time.

On the other side, Bibi Dong used her Asura Divine Power to revive Bibi Xi.

When Bibi Xi's eyes, which had been closed for too long, finally opened slowly, Ling Yuan burst into tears and couldn't stand up.

After being resurrected, Bibi Xi was noticed by the God of Poison during his recovery period. The Poison God was a Second-Class God who controlled the Law of Ten Thousand Poisons. The God of Poison immediately noticed the special toxicity of the Deadly Poison Silk remaining in Bibixi's body.

Ling Yuan, on Bibi Dong's recommendation, began to inherit the Divine Position of the God of Speed.

In addition, the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction joined forces to unleash Light of the Creation Law, covering the entire Douluo Continent.

With the combined help of the two God King, the wounds on the mainland gradually healed.

The Temple of God of the God of Time, the Garden.

The shrine garden is filled with exotic flowers and plants transplanted from various planes.

Bibi Dong sat on the swing, wearing an elegant light purple dress, her long silver hair casually draped over her shoulders, her slender legs peeking out from under the hem of her dress, her bare feet gently swinging, her toes occasionally touching the ground.

Just then, familiar footsteps came from the garden entrance.

"You're back."

Qian Xunji emerged from the flower-lined path, still dressed in his formal meeting attire. His face looked more tired than usual, but when he saw the figure swinging on the swing, his steps unconsciously became lighter.

"Yes, I'm back."

Bibi Dong stretched out her hands, Qian Xunji up to her, bent down and picked her up from the swing, then sat her on the swing and let her sit on his lap.

Bibi Dong wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "Ling Yuan just came by and brought some freshly picked fairy fruits. She said they were grown in the God of Speed's palace and asked me to try them. I ate one, and it was very sweet. I left a few for you on the table."

Qian Xunji glanced down at the purple fruit on the stone table beside him, then looked at Bibi Dong in his arms. "I'm tired, feed me."

Bibi Dong raised her face, a sly smile playing on her lips, "Beg me, and I'll feed you."

"Please, wife, feed me."

"Call me 'Mommy' and I'll feed you."

"Is it because Xiao Xue isn't here that you want to hear me call you?"

Bibi Dong rolled her eyes at him. "Yes, before Xiao Xue ascends to the Divine Realm, you're the only one who can take her place."

Qian Xunji at her self-righteous appearance, Qian Xunji couldn't help but smile.

"Mommy, feed me."

"Oh, my son is so good."

Bibi Dong smiled with satisfaction, reached out and picked up a fairy fruit from the stone table, bit it into her mouth, and then leaned over to feed it to him mouth to mouth.

The fruit was sweet, but her lips were even sweeter.

Qian Xunji chewed on the fruit, kissed her fragrant lips, and then said, "One more, please."

Bibi Dong smiled and pushed him away, but still picked up another one, bit it into her mouth, and leaned down to kiss it.

The two of them cuddled together like that for quite a while...

I looked down at the mortal realm for a while today.

"The Martial Soul Federation has been officially established. The Sun Moon Continent Federation has been founded on the Sun Moon Federation, and Xiao Xue has become its head."

Qian Xunji raised an eyebrow. "Really? She's even younger than you and already the head of state. Our daughter is quite something."

Bibi Dong lifted her head from his embrace, squinting her eyes. "What do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm not as good as my daughter?"

"No way!" Qian Xunji immediately became serious. "You and Xiao Xue are both outstanding. You are the youngest pope, and she is the head of state who is even younger than you. This shows that the women in our family are all incredibly capable."

"I like hearing that." Bibi Dong leaned back on his shoulder and hummed with satisfaction.

The two remained quiet for a while, the swing swaying slowly.

Qian Xunji suddenly spoke up, "We've already familiarized ourselves with the situation in the Divine Realm, and I plan to go back there."

"Go help ourselves?"

"Yes, there are some things I need to go back to."

Bibi Dong nodded and asked again, "Have you finished making that thing called the system?"

"It's done." Qian Xunji nodded.

Three days ago, he was alone in the Time Dilation Space, where time flowed at the same rate as in the Lower Realm.

In the sluggish realm, one year is equivalent to only one day in the Divine Realm.

He spent three whole years inside, meticulously refining and perfecting every function, every task line, and every reward of the system according to his own memory.

Three years is enough time for him to perfect every detail.

Bibi Dong stood up from his arms, turned around, put her hands behind her back, and looked at him earnestly. "I want to go too."

Qian Xunji was taken aback. "You're going too?"

"Hmm, why not?"

"But..." Qian Xunji, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, reached out, and pinched his cheek. "What are you hiding from me, hmm?"

Yes, I'm hiding something from you.

"What is it?" Bibi Dong released her hand, her playful expression vanishing, replaced by a hint of tension.

Qian Xunji stood up and looked into her eyes. "Actually, I am not the Qian Xunji I used to be."

"What's the meaning?"

"My name is Lin Qianxun. I wasn't originally from the Douluo Continent; I came from another world."
