  Leaves that were the size of palms fell down, following the light. The giant Fairy Tree had taken root in a green jungle.

  Small fairies were flying among the dappled sunlight, collecting food and organizing the forest. They had magically turned the Capital of God into a beautiful botanical garden.

  “We fairies were born to take care of this Capital of God!” all of the fairies exclaimed as they went about their work.

  Lu Zhiyu stopped looking at the Capital of God, turning his attention to the faraway Maria’s World. He could vaguely see the continents and oceans in Maria’s World through layers of clouds.

  Many different being were inhabiting in that place. Some of them were weak, some of them were powerful, some had humble origins, and others had royal blood. However, each life form and race had its own unique meaning and reason for being born.

  “Orcs were the first kind of creatures born in this world!” Lu Zhiyu murmured. “Humans are the most important factors in civilization advancement! Magical beasts are the beginning of the supernatural lives, and the dragon race is the origin of divine incantation.”


  Every race had specific purposes. The new spawn races that Lu Zhiyu wanted to create would be an extension of his exploration and influence in the universe.

  However, compared to other spawn races that Lu Zhiyu had created before, the creation of this spawn race was more confusing to Lu Zhiyu than ever. This was because he didn’t know exactly what kind of race he was supposed to create in order to meet his own expectations.

  “Should I make machine and silicon-based life forms, an artificially intelligent civilization, or a living creature civilization, like the insect race?” he wondered aloud.

  As he pondered over this question, Lu Zhiyu reckoned that the race that he was about to create didn’t need to be powerful at first, as he valued potential above all. Besides, if the race’s original power was too strong, it would constrain their future potential. Likewise, if the race’s expectancy was too long, they would rest on their laurels and the civilization would gradually die out.

  They could fight and evolve so that they could gain power and long lives, but they couldn’t have everything within them the moment they were born. It was for this reason that Lu Zhiyu gave up the idea of creating a machine-driven silicon-based civilization or an artificially intelligent civilization.

  Neither of these two civilizations had breakthrough and innovation abilities. They might have tremendous fighting power potential and assimilation abilities, but it was still difficult for them to create and innovate to make a breakthrough inn their civilization level.

  These civilizations could conquer other civilizations in order to upgrade themselves using their forceful stormtroopers and techniques for eroding power. However, they didn’t possess enough development potential.

  Lu Zhiyu was already powerful enough to conquer other civilizations and upgrade a civilization. After all, he was a mythical creature, which meant that he was much better at annihilating other civilizations than the aforementioned three civilizations.

  After giving this a lot of thought, Lu Zhiyu eventually decided to create his new spawn races based on his own life form. These would be carbon-based life forms that had the human shape.

  They would be merged with botanic genes, which would give them the same life expectancies as the fairies’. This would also mean that they could photosynthesize. This would also allow them to live in the space for a short amount of time, and it would also instil them high intelligences and impressive study capabilities.

  The most important thing, however, was their potential, which was a supernatural power that Lu Zhiyu would bestow upon them. They would then have the supernatural abilities to go on adventures and create their own future, which was why they had the potential to become an interstellar race.

  What Lu Zhiyu was trying to decide now was what kind of power he should give them. He decided that it should be supernatural power that was combined with the power of mythical creatures and technological civilization. This was mainly because he wanted to be sure that they would be sturdy and have the potential to create their own futures.

  What kind of supernatural bloodline should I give them? he then wondered.

  Lu Zhiyu was sitting in the witchcraft garden in the Capital of God, while writing all sorts of bloodline abilities on a piece of paper. A ton of information was flowing through his mind, and he kept mapping it to the creature format, while trying to deduct the creature format from it. However, Lu Zhiyu eventually gave up on all of these formats, as he couldn’t find anything suitable and up to his high standards.

  At the moment, Eva was wearing a purple dress and a hat, and she was standing behind Lu Zhiyu. Many fairies were flying around her, all of them speaking in a language that no one else could understand. This was the language of the fairies.

  There were many small fairies in this garden. They were responsible for arranging the magically-reinforced plants within it. Many of these magically-reinforced plants had powers that were beyond all imagination.

  For instance, the Fiery Lotus could give someone a supernatural bloodline. As for the Crystal Mint, that could transform a human being into a being that had a half-energy status.

  The small pond of water that was at the center of the garden was the Immortality Spring, which could give people hundreds of years more to live. The garden even had a plant that could be used to make black demon tea, which was known to have euphoric psychedelic effects on people.

  Most of these plants had been planted by Eva, and the majority of them were used to make some special desserts and other dishes. As each of these plants and dishes would be craved by the saints it they were made known to the world, this garden had to be kept hidden and carefully guarded at all times.

  “Something interesting happened in Maria’s World. You should come check it out, master!” Eva said to Lu Zhiyu.

  Eva had inherited some of Lu Zhiyu’s bad habits, including his short temper and impatience at times. She immediately created a projection on in the hall wall, which allowed Lu Zhiyu to see everything that was happening in the crystal wall. She was able to do this by using her access authority to the half-perpetual bio-optic brain.

  As Lu Zhiyu looked at the projection, he saw numerous scenes from several different worlds, including epic wars, touching love stories between royal knights and daughters, fights among the saints, schemes and plots being discussed among kings and officials, and even heroes who had fallen after being tempted by demon sorcerers. One scene even depicted the rising of the trolls!

  There were scenes of all sorts of stories here. In fact, that screen with the projection that Eva was now showing Lu Zhiyu was like her own personal television set. She could see the stories in all of the different worlds through it, and she would hum often songs while preparing desserts and milk tea for Lu Zhiyu as she watched it.

  When something extra exciting happened, Eva would scream in exhilaration and run to ask Lu Zhiyu to watch it with her. This is exactly what had just occurred.

  Lu Zhiyu put down the pen that was in his hand and looked to Eva. He then said, “It is now the most crucial time, as all of the gods will soon ascend their thrones. Did something go wrong? Those who have been chosen to become gods should successfully ascend……”


  Lu Zhiyu took a deep breath, then continued, “Now, only two god positions are vacant. One of them is the Time God position, while the other one is the Ground God position, which had been expanded to include the God of Ground and War title. However, the problem with this title expansion involves Felix and Lynn Ahenaten, who are the current God of Ground and God of War respectively.”


  Lu Zhiyu had immersed himself in designing the new spawn race, so he hadn’t been paying any attention to any of the changes that were taking place in Maria’s World.

  He knew that Edward Kelermo had successfully become the God of Truth and Knowledge and had successfully established a master system. After that had happened, the wizards had become masters and had integrated themselves into the Maria God system, just like the alchemy sorcerers.

  As for Jonathan, the Master of Storm, something unexpected had happened to him when he was trying to ascend to the God position. Though no gods had attacked him directly, the cardinal from the Galton Stream of the Church of Light in the Kingdom of Rosa d’Oro had teamed up with Archimonde, an alchemy puppet that was made by the alchemy sorcerers from the Church of Goddess of Steam and Machine.

  The two of them had then attacked the Hailuga Kingdom while Jonathan was trying to ascend to the God position. At that time, Archimonde had used the Godly Power Light to tear up the clouds and the atmosphere, causing Jonathan to almost fall from the sky!

  The alchemy sorcerers hated Jonathan much more than they hated their actual enemies. This made sense, as traitors were always more disgusting than enemies!

  The reason why Jonathan was considered a traitor was because he was an alchemy sorcerer, who had been born into a family of alchemy sorcerers. Both him and his grandfather were students of Marina Bosa, the Goddess of Steam and Machine, and as such, Jonathan’s family was a vital part of the City Alliance of Sheehan, especially among the alchemy sorcerer circlesi.

  However, Jonathan chose to betray his teacher and kill one of his schoolmates, Issac, as well as seize Isaac’s alchemy beast. By doing this, he had betrayed his country, his people, and his race, which ultimately resulted in the City Alliance of Sheehan’s navy being crushed and slaughtered.

  As for alchemy sorcerers, they had also suffered a huge blow because of his actions. This was the reason why both the three-kingdom alliance on the ocean and the Church of Light of alchemy sorcerers wanted to stop him from ascending.

  However, Gina, the God of the Sea, had lived up to her promises and had helped Jonathan to inherit the godly position. Even so, the power from the divine artifact had still greatly injured his godly body before he ascended to the godly position. So, after he became a god, Jonathan had been hiding in his god kingdom in order to recover his godly body.

  At this moment, what was showing up on the screen wasn’t the human world of Maria’s World, but was a dark and gloomy world instead. There were black halos in the sky that came from a bizarre-looking sun, and a dim light enveloped the entire world. This was the underworld, where the deceased and their souls belonged.

  However, at this moment, someone who didn’t belong here and shouldn’t be here stepped within it. This was a strong and ferocious human being, but the bottom of his face, which was covered by a hood, had some of the characteristics of a tiger man.

  Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that this was a half-beast human being from the central province. He was wearing a black cape that covered his armor, and he carried a special silver long sword at his waist.

  There were special engravings on the sword, and if someone from the Church of Light or the Church of Sun was here, he would be able to immediately recognize that it was the Sword of the King, which symbolized the power of the king that had been bestowed upon him by God.

  Although the cape covered his face, that sword had already exposed his identity. He was Lynn Ahenaten, the King of Mercenary from the Ahenaten Kingdom in the central province!

  At this moment, he had arrived at the door of the underworld. From this vantage point, he was able to see that creature holding a fork at the door to the underworld. This was the guard of the underworld, the Soul Swallowing Goat Devil Haem!
