Stronger with Crimson Modifier

If it attracted the attention of an even more powerful being, that would be extremely disadvantageous for him.

The current situation was undoubtedly the best possible outcome.

He reined in his thoughts.

He once again gazed at the Pocket World.

In his perception, a special will was rapidly forming and taking shape within this world.

Based on the Mirage Dragon’s residual memories, Hu Qi understood that this was the world will, born after the Pocket World had transformed into its own realm.

It was a convergence of the wills of the countless living beings within the world, like a super-intelligent AI responsible for assisting in the world’s development and operation.

To a True God, it was like an intelligent butler, assisting in the management of this world.

Perhaps it was due to the special nature of the Pocket World.

It contained ten worlds, so the world will was gestating very quickly.

In just a few breaths, it had already fully formed.

The next moment.

A blurry figure, completely suffused with brilliant light, emerged from the Yin Yang Reincarnation Disc above his head.

It was the will of this world.

"Great Creator! Please grant me a name!"

The figure formed by the world will looked toward Hu Qi’s location.

It bowed slightly, placed a hand over its chest, and spoke respectfully.

The world will produced by the realm transformation was completely loyal to the True God themselves.

It could even change its appearance, features, and personality according to the True God’s preferences.

However, Hu Qi’s expression was indifferent. He did not answer.

He suddenly raised his hand and seized the air.

The Pocket World Space immediately trembled.

The figure’s body flew out of its control, pulled directly before him as he grabbed it by the neck.

Seemingly sensing the coldness emanating from Hu Qi, the face of the figure formed by the world will constantly shifted—male, female, old, young—but all of them showed expressions of pain and pleading.

"Great Creator! What are you doing?"

The figure’s voice was filled with terror and confusion, its face twisted with extreme unease.

But Hu Qi did not respond.

He held the newly-formed world will tightly with one hand and, without hesitation, plunged his other hand into its head.

In that instant, the Twisted Light burst from his palm.

BANG!

The humanoid world will trembled violently as if enduring indescribable pain.

At the same time, the brilliant, multicolored light covering its body rapidly faded, turning into a pure, translucent white.

Its face also gradually blurred, eventually becoming smooth and featureless, leaving only a pair of eyes that radiated a dense white light, cold and merciless.

"From now on, your name is Grotto-One. Also, don’t call me Creator. Call me Master!!"

Seeing this, Hu Qi released his grip and said flatly.

The figure half-knelt in the void, its head bowed, its voice calm and mechanical, without a trace of emotional fluctuation.

"Yes, Master!"

A flicker of satisfaction passed through Hu Qi’s eyes at this.

A world will, as the will brewed by the world itself, would naturally be influenced by the will of all living beings.

Moreover, the stronger the world, the more intelligent its will would become.

Due to the Pocket World’s unique nature of containing ten fused worlds, its newly born world will’s avatar was almost indistinguishable from a normal person.

This was a situation Hu Qi did not want to see.

He didn’t need an emotional executor.

What he needed was simply a tool that would obey orders absolutely, without any interference.

After giving a few simple instructions, Hu Qi’s figure gradually faded, eventually disappearing from the Pocket World Space.

The figure formed by the world will also vanished back into the Yin Yang Reincarnation Disc above.

Outside, in the Sea of Sumeru, all was silent.

Hu Qi opened his eyes, a contemplative look within them.

The step of realm transformation was complete.

The next step was to achieve Enlightenment of his own Great Dao.

However, this was not something that could be accomplished overnight, nor could it be done here.

He needed to find a suitable place.

At this thought, Hu Qi’s figure abruptly flickered.

In an instant, he vanished without a trace, as if teleporting, streaking away in a certain direction at Extreme Speed.

Only empty space was left behind.

It was as if the crystal-encased continent-world from before had never existed.

...

The instant the continent housing the Holy Hall collapsed and turned to dust, in a strange world filled with endless white, a figure hidden within the white light was steadily holding up a Crystal Balance that emitted a faint glow.

Suddenly, in the next moment, White King Altina, who had been immersed in digesting the Contract Dao Rhyme, abruptly opened her eyes. A cold glint flashed within them, and a terrifying killing intent instantly erupted from her body.

In that fleeting moment, she had keenly sensed it.

A group of her devout followers had vanished without warning, including even several Apostle Level Fanatics.

These were all important pillars supporting the foundation of her Divine Country.

To be able to do this, only a True God was likely capable.

Furthermore, her aura still lingered in that world; it was impossible that they were accidentally harmed by a passing True God.

It was obvious. For such a bizarre situation, there was only one possibility: a True God had deliberately targeted her.

"Just who was it?!"

The names of several True Gods with whom she had grudges flashed through Altdina’s mind, and her expression grew increasingly grim.

After countless years of painstaking management, Altdina had innumerable worlds of believers in the Deep Dark Zone.

But the world that had just been destroyed ranked in the top three among all her worlds in terms of believer count. How could such a devastating loss not enrage her?

However, she was currently deep within the Bottomless Realm.

She could not break free for the time being.

Besides, the most urgent task was to fully digest this precious Dao Rhyme and increase her own strength.

Before that, everything else had to be temporarily set aside.

After weighing the pros and cons, Altdina took a deep breath.

She closed her eyes once more, her aura retracting as she re-immersed herself in comprehending and absorbing the Dao Rhyme.

...

「Time passed.」

After putting a certain distance behind him, Hu Qi found a nearby azure world.

After his Divine Soul Power swept over and permeated it, his expression shifted.

Then, he dove straight in.

This world’s will and Power of Rules were incredibly weak.

They were completely unable to stop the invasion of a True God.

...

The sea and sky were one, the azure surface of the ocean meeting the firmament as if without end.

A few seagulls occasionally streaked across the sky, letting out crisp cries.

A lone island stood amid the waters.

The entire island was wrapped in layers of dense vegetation. Lush trees grew wildly, their flourishing branches and leaves intertwining to form a green canopy that tightly enveloped the island.

A few palm trees occasionally poked their heads out, their long fronds rustling under the sea breeze’s gentle caress.

Just then, a streak of Flowing Light descended from the sky, transforming into Hu Qi’s figure.

He scanned his surroundings.

Then, with a single step, he appeared atop a cliff.

He then sat down cross-legged on the spot.

Clearing his mind of stray thoughts, he gazed at the glittering surface of the sea in the distance and fell into contemplation.

There were countless types of Great Daos, each with its own merits.

For example, the Sword Dao, the Spear Dao, and the Bow Dao belonged to the category of weapon-type Great Daos.

Then there were the Wind Dao, the Fire Dao, and the Earth Dao, which were more oriented toward the Elements.

And others still, like the Time Dao, Space Dao, and Power Dao.

There were all sorts of different Great Daos; some were even just concepts.

Of course, among the myriad Great Daos, although they had different focuses, there was no absolute hierarchy of strength.

The amount of power one could wield ultimately depended on the Cultivator’s own comprehension and application.

Every Great Dao could be condensed into a Dao Seed.

According to the Mirage Dragon’s memories, Enlightenment, in its essence, could be seen as a True God’s deep retrospective and condensed summary of their own Cultivation journey.

Therefore, it was best for the comprehended Great Dao to be one that fit one’s own traits and experiences. The closer the fit, the greater the power one could wield.

Take the Mirage Dragon, for example. The Illusion Dao it controlled was nothing short of brilliant.

As the Mirage Dragon’s power gradually increased, its Illusion Dao could even reach the point of turning illusion into reality, or create an illusory dimension indistinguishable from the Real World.

Inside it, it was difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood.

However, while the Illusion Dao was powerful, it wasn’t necessarily suitable for him.

Everyone’s path of Cultivation is unique, and the Dao they comprehend should also fit their own journey.

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes.

He began to summarize the path he had walked thus far.

Unconsciously, the sun slowly set in the west.

The sky was dyed a brilliant orange-red, and the sea’s surface reflected the sunset glow, glittering as if countless golden scales were dancing upon it.

Atop the cliff, Hu Qi opened his eyes, his brow slightly furrowed.

Because of the Spirit Seed Technique, he had encountered more than one Extraordinary System on his journey.

He couldn’t figure out what kind of path was most suitable for him.

’Sigh! As expected, even with my unparalleled talent, I can’t achieve Enlightenment of a Great Dao in such a short time. It seems I’ll still need a little help from the Crimson Panel!’
