Upon hearing those words, the Golden Mother Jingchen froze, looking toward Miyamoto Mayumi, who was bound in the air by golden chains!

"Little Japanese demon!!" The Golden Mother Jingchen instantly erupted in fury. Recalling the scene of her own brutal murder at Miyamoto's hands, she bellowed, "Why? Why did you kill me? I had neither grudge nor grievance with you! I even kindly gave you water to drink! Why did you kill me?!"

"I beg you, please..." Miyamoto Mayumi tried to plead for mercy, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the golden chains suddenly tightened. Black smoke rose from her body as she screamed, "Because you all deserve to die! All you Chin*se pigs deserve death!! Deserve death!!"

Under the spell's seal imposed by Qin Heng, Miyamoto Mayumi couldn't tell a lie; she could only speak her true thoughts.

She couldn't fake it at all!!

"Decades ago, you slaughtered on this land of Huaxia! Do you still wish to do so now?!" The Golden Mother Jingchen trembled with rage and said, "No! China is powerful now. Although I lived a modest life before, I could feel the strength of my motherland! Huaxia will never allow you to trample it. Now that I serve as a deity under the Immortal Venerable's command, I must naturally protect the realm where He resides. You deserve death! No, you deserve to have your soul utterly dispersed!!"

As she spoke, the Golden Mother Jingchen raised her golden Magic Wand and pointed it at Miyamoto Mayumi. An incredibly dazzling golden light burst forth, like numerous golden lotuses, falling upon Miyamoto Mayumi's soul body.

WHOOSH!

The golden lotuses transformed into golden flames. Miyamoto Mayumi's soul body, like dry tinder, was instantly engulfed and incinerated by the flames!

"Ahhhh!!" She let out a terribly shrill scream as her beautiful body burned, wildly twisting and struggling, trying to break free from the golden chains' restraint, trying to escape the scorching golden flames!

However, it was completely in vain!

"Ahhhh! Who are you?! How are you able to consecrate a ghost as a god?! Why?!"

As Miyamoto Mayumi screamed, she shouted out her deepest confusion, utterly unable to comprehend how Qin Heng could bestow divinity!

Gods!

To think they could be appointed by another! Inconceivable!

Naturally, she would never have the chance to know.

"Ahhhhhh!!"

Amid a wail of extreme agony, her soul body was consumed by the golden flames, turning into a wisp of blue smoke that floated into the air and utterly dissipated!

This was total obliteration!

Her soul scattered!

Completely gone!

No longer in existence!!

Without even the chance for reincarnation, she thoroughly vanished from the myriad worlds.

THUMP!!

The Golden Mother Jingchen knelt, bowing deeply to Qin Heng with her hands and forehead touching the ground. This was full prostration, as though she was expressing her life's deepest reverence. Devoutly, she said, "I thank the Immortal Venerable for the grace of recreation!"

"Rise," Qin Heng commanded gently, lifting her. He added indifferently, "Very well, this was your opportunity. Since you now wield the authority of a deity, you must exercise its powers: drive away demons, fend off evil, and safeguard peace in this region. One who cannot protect all beings is unworthy of being called a god. You may go."

"I will keep the Immortal Venerable's teachings in mind," the Golden Mother Jingchen said respectfully. Then her form slightly shimmered, and she transformed into a golden light, sweeping up the wooden hook-staff and the tattered sack from the ground before vanishing without a trace.

Deities are, by nature, still soul bodies. They only maintain a corporeal form through the convergence of Heavenly Essence and the empowerment of their God Position. Essentially, they remain illusory.

They assemble to take form, disperse to become qi!

They can effortlessly transform into wind and flee, traversing hundreds of miles in an instant!

Qin Heng nodded slightly, opened the car door, and drove his luxury vehicle out of the underground parking lot, heading home.

From this day on, Tianhai, the Demon City, had one more deity!

The saying, "The gods are three feet above your head!"

Was no longer just empty words!

「...」

Mount QianFo. It is said that in ancient times, a Buddha preached here. He led three thousand monks to enlightenment. In a single day, they achieved Buddhahood, entered nirvana, and attained the Pure Land, hence the name Mount QianFo.

And in the deepest part of Mount QianFo, in a place rarely touched by human presence, a vast temple complex spanned over ten miles, occupying a blessed land.

Golden Buddha Temple!

The sound of evening drums and morning bells drifted through the night. It was time for the monks to conduct their evening service.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a deafening explosion erupted in front of the Mahavira Hall, the core of the Golden Buddha Temple, causing many nearby monks to stumble.

An old monk, white-bearded and white-browed, held his zen staff. The floor tiles under his feet shattered, covered in spiderweb-like cracks!

The surrounding monks shivered witnessing this. These floor tiles in front of the Mahavira Hall were specially treated "golden bricks," harder than ordinary steel!

Now, they were crushed with a single stomp!

Too terrifying!!

"Xuancheng!" the old monk called out in a deep voice.

"Master, Xuancheng is here!" a robust monk in his forties stepped out from the crowd and saluted the old monk.

"Your junior brother, Xuanwang, is dead. He perished in the secular world," the old monk's voice was very low as he said, "His Soul Lantern just went out. Do you know what he went to the secular world to do?"

"He went to kill a man named Qin Heng," Xuancheng nodded.

"Then go to the secular world now," the old monk said. "Kill that Qin Heng and sever his head. Then, find Xuanwang's murderer and kill him directly as well. You are a Grandmaster of Transcendence. Few in the secular world can stand against you."

"As you command."

Xuancheng nodded. With swift and decisive action, he made no preparations whatsoever and headed straight out of the temple.

A young monk, worried, stepped forward to persuade Xuancheng, "Senior Brother, the secular world is dangerous. It's said that firearms are very powerful. Junior Brother Xuanwang might have fallen to them. Are you sure you don't want to prepare first?"

"No need," Xuancheng shook his head nonchalantly. "The ants of the secular world, no matter how many strange and clever tricks they have, I will break them with a single punch. That Qin Heng, I will kill him with one punch! I will not need a second!"

His confidence was boundless!!

「...」

In a dark valley, undetectable by technological means, black fog permeated everything. Even the plants were black, and an aura of chilling darkness was everywhere! It was as if this place was not of the human realm, but the underworld itself!

In a palace built of pallid bones, on a throne constructed of human skeletons, sat a figure in black robes, their face indistinct, meditating with closed eyes.

Beneath the throne stood two rows of people in various attire. A total of twenty-six individuals. Some wore modern clothes and appeared to be middle-aged men and women; others were mysterious figures, also draped in black robes, looking as if they weren't from the same world.

"Zhou Beichen is dead," the person on the throne suddenly spoke, their voice indifferent. "A once-in-centuries genius of my Shadow Gate, Zhou Beichen, is dead. He was killed in the secular world! In Tianhai City!"

WHOOSH!

All twenty-six people below knelt, shouting in unison, "We vow to avenge Young Master Zhou! We will slay that audacious person, sever his head, and add it to our Lord's throne!!"

In the eyes of the black-robed figure on the throne, eerie blue flames ignited. An immense pressure spread out, making the atmosphere in the entire palace extremely oppressive!

All twenty-six people below held their breath, none daring to speak or move.

"Shen WuYing, come forward," the black-robed figure suddenly spoke, their voice flat. "Go and capture the person who killed Zhou Beichen. Bring him here alive. Oh, and kill all his family and friends, so that he utterly desires death."

"Understood!" A tall, handsome man dressed in a purple tight-fitting suit stepped forward from the twenty-six. He said respectfully, "I will not fail your expectations, my Lord! I will surely kill that man!!"

「...」

「Nanyang!」

At the airport, an old man with snow-white hair and a youthful face, emanating an aura of unspoken power, said goodbye to a few hundred people seeing him off. He took a young man with him and boarded a plane headed for Tianhai City in Mainland China!

「...」

「South Shu, Dianzhou!」

Inside a Miaozhai Village, a dry, skeletal old man stood up. Green light shone in his eyes. He gestured with his hand!

Suddenly, from a corner of the old house, a swarm of poisonous creatures surged forth! Scorpions, centipedes, venomous snakes, spiders, toads! They were legion, forming a dense, writhing mass!

The old man opened his mouth, allowing these poisonous creatures to crawl inside!

Then, he opened the long-unopened door of the house and walked out, heading towards Tianhai!

As for that corner of the old house, a skeleton lay there! Its flesh, blood, and even marrow had been drained dry by the poisonous creatures!
