"Starry Tears..."

Seeing the change in Starry Tears' complexion, their hearts leaped into their throats.

Anxiety.

Worry.

Confusion.

Curiosity.

What kind of secret did this ordinary scripture contain that it could elicit such complex emotions of fear, shock, and awe on Starry Tears' face?

BOOM.

Just as Unparalleled Iron Blood and the others couldn't resist asking, a powerful surge of energy suddenly erupted from Starry Tears.

"This... this is..."

"His power is increasing!"

"Starry Tears' strength is growing!"

Defying Heavens' pupils contracted. His mind had been intensely focused, yet he hadn't detected any Divine Power or spell fluctuations. He couldn't believe that King Wukong the King of Demons could have done anything under these circumstances. Could it really be that just by reciting this scripture once, one's strength would be enhanced? How could that be possible? What magic did this scripture hold?

HUM.

Suddenly, Starry Tears opened his eyes, which were filled with an indescribable shock.

"Starry Tears, how are you?" Dancing with the Wind asked with concern. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine!" Starry Tears came back to his senses, his heart still churning like a roiling sea, overwhelmed with shock.

"I've lost!" Starry Tears declared. "In the Ming Clan, our word is our bond. From now on, I am your man!"

"Starry Tears... ah..." Unparalleled Iron Blood clenched his fists, wanting to say something, yet unable to speak. Were they to break their promise? To profit from their own dishonesty?

"Starry Tears, what exactly did you see?" Defying Heavens asked.

"I saw God!"

"The supreme and great True God!" Starry Tears looked at Defying Heavens. "Marshal, your petrification disease can be cured. You'll know once you recite it yourselves. I can't describe it well; it's simply beyond words!"

"Good!" Defying Heavens nodded.

"Marshal, let me go first!" Unparalleled Iron Blood said, fearing that Starry Tears had fallen into a trap. If Defying Heavens were to fall for it as well, wouldn't that spell disaster? Therefore, he wanted to test it himself.

"No need. If anyone is to go first, it will be me!" Defying Heavens trusted Starry Tears; he likely hadn't been controlled. Moreover, he had confidence in his own strength. He didn't believe that merely reciting this scripture could affect him.

Defying Heavens, Dancing with the Wind, Unparalleled Iron Blood, and the others began to recite.

Unknowingly, they arrived at a boundless Chaos Sea. Chaos Qi roiled, and huge waves surged to the sky. Each wave was an Ancient Universe—vast, boundless, beyond imagination.

And in the center of that Chaos Sea, there existed an indescribable, great being. Cosmic galaxies revolved around Him. The Myriad of Realms prostrated themselves before Him.

He was the origin of the universe.

He was the end of heaven and earth.

He was the Sovereign of the Path.

Seeing Him was like...

Seeing the Path.

Seeing innumerable cosmic spacetimes, like the sands of the Ganges.

Seeing the past, present, and future of the universe.

At that moment, Defying Heavens couldn't help but approach the God of Hongmeng, approach the Path. Even if approaching the Path meant death, even if his mind would be assimilated by the Path, even if he would be turned into a puppet of the Path, he did not hesitate at all. At that moment, he finally understood the meaning of 'To learn the Way in the morning and die in the evening is contentment.'

But the next moment, the space around him shattered instantly.

Defying Heavens woke with a start. He opened his eyes abruptly.

The surroundings were no longer the boundless Chaos Sea, but as they were before. King Wukong the King of Demons, Dancing with the Wind, Starry Tears, and the others were all there.

He didn't speak, savoring the experience. His heart was shaken to its core.

This is the true God!

Before the God of Hongmeng, the God Clan is less than dust!

Defying Heavens was overwhelmed with emotion. His heart yearned. A new pursuit had arisen within him. He wanted to become stronger. He wanted to behold the scenery from even higher places. The Myriad of Realms... The endless expanse of time and space...

Is this what an Immortal True God is like? So magnificent, so terrifying! With every breath, endless universes are born and destroyed—unimaginable!

Dancing with the Wind, Unparalleled Iron Blood, and the others awoke. They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock.

"Marshal, your illness?" Dancing with the Wind looked at Defying Heavens.

"It has been cured!" Defying Heavens declared.

Having witnessed the magnificence and terror of the God of Hongmeng, Defying Heavens wasn't surprised at all that his petrification disease was cured. The God of Hongmeng could birth infinite universes with a breath and create endless living beings; His divine power was beyond imagination. He had no doubt that even if he had died, a mere sliver of the God of Hongmeng's power could have revived him, let alone when he was merely ill and not yet dead.

"Congratulations, Marshal!" Unparalleled Iron Blood and the others were overjoyed. However, when they thought of Starry Tears having lost the bet, their eyes were filled with complexity. But perhaps this wasn't a bad thing. With Starry Tears following King Wukong the King of Demons, it could strengthen the bond between them, which would benefit the Ming Clan's great cause against the gods.

"Messenger Sun, may we share this 'Meditation Method' with other members of the Ming Clan?" Defying Heavens looked at King Wukong the King of Demons and continued, "Many in our Ming Clan suffer from petrification disease. Previously, it was incurable, and they could only await death..."

"No problem!" King Wukong the King of Demons interrupted him, saying cheerfully, "I told you before, Our God is magnanimous and great! You can pass on this 'Meditation Method'. Let every member of the Ming Clan recite it; this will also strengthen the Ming Clan's power!"

"Thank you, Messenger Sun!" Defying Heavens bowed with his hands clasped.

Unparalleled Iron Blood and the others did the same. At this moment, their fondness for King Wukong the King of Demons had increased significantly. They had all, at some point, helplessly watched their kin slowly die from petrification disease. That pain... It was truly impossible for anyone who hadn't experienced it to understand.

Now, finally, things were better. No more worries about petrification disease. No need to worry about any illness at all.

Were there any traps in this? Heh... If that fearsome being wanted to harm them, they had no power to resist anyway. Since resistance was futile, why not just accept it and see what benefits it might bring? After all, they currently saw no downside.

"Eh, the God Clan is looking for me? Perfect timing to meet them!" King Wukong the King of Demons raised an eyebrow and headed toward Chaoge City.

"Marshal, should we go and help?" Unparalleled Iron Blood inquired. Having just experienced an increase in strength, he was eager to test it. At the same time, he felt indebted to King Wukong the King of Demons.

"Of course, we should go!"

"Let's go!" Defying Heavens took the lead, eagerly chasing after King Wukong the King of Demons.

"Weiwei, did you secretly accept Messenger Sun's terms?" Starry Tears, a step behind, walked beside Dancing with the Wind and asked through a spiritual message.

"Why would you ask that?"

"So, it seems you did!" Starry Tears said. "You hid it well, but as a fellow woman, I can still sense the change in you! Besides," Starry Tears continued, "Messenger Sun was about to leave but suddenly stayed. He claimed it was a joke, but do you believe him? Moreover, a God's Wonderful Law as precious as the 'Meditation Method'—why would he offer it if you hadn't agreed to his terms?"

Dancing with the Wind was silent for a moment before saying, "Don't tell anyone else!"

"Apart from those few muscle-brained idiots, who do you think you could fool? The Marshal must have guessed already!" Starry Tears said. "It's just an unspoken understanding among the rest of us!"

Dancing with the Wind nodded. "That's fine then!"

The two spoke no more, catching up with the main group and quickly heading toward Chaoge City.

「Chaoge City.」

The Tai Chi Great God and Liuyue Great God stood above Chaoge City. Their terrifying divine might recklessly enveloped the surroundings, causing countless people to panic and prostrate themselves on the ground.

Feeling the fear of the people below, the Tai Chi Great God was in high spirits and said disdainfully, "These weak yellow-skinned monkeys are fortunate to be slaves to our God Clan, but some of them don't cherish this and even think of rebelling! But it's just ants shaking a tree, overestimating their own power!"

Liuyue Great God smiled faintly. Her fair, jade-like hand caressed the Tai Chi Great God's firm chest as she said seductively, "We should quickly complete the task God's Eye Grand Elder assigned us, then we can go and enjoy ourselves!"

"What a Little Demon you are!" Hearing this, a thrill ran through the Tai Chi Great God, and his heart grew warm. He raised a large hand and gave her pert buttock a firm smack.

SLAP!

"Mm..." Liuyue Great God let out a coquettish cry, her beautiful eyes like water, brimming with enticing vernal passion. "You're so naughty!"

Her voluptuous, graceful body trembled slightly, exciting the Tai Chi Great God immensely. He really wanted to deal with this Little Demon right away. However, remembering the task, he suppressed the boiling Evil God Power within him and said, "We'll know once we ask Emperor Yi!"

As he spoke, Emperor Yi had already come out with his retinue to greet them.

King Yi of Shang bowed. "I, King Yi of Shang, pay my respects to the two Great Gods. May I ask what instructions Your Excellencies have for us, gracing our humble city with your presence?"

He knew that they had surely come for King Wukong the King of Demons.
