Chapter 523: Chapter 293: Becoming an Existence on Par with God!

The purple river flowed by, moving from void into void.

It came from nowhere and went to nowhere.

The Void River appeared to be segments of a folded purple river, but in reality, it was a complete whole.

Chen Qing reached out to touch the Void River, injecting the part he controlled into it.

As the complete Void River flowed, Chen Qing waved to summon the Returning Home. The three boarded the boat, traveling within the tunnel full of purple Void Flowers.

In just a short time, they arrived once again before the Divine Temple.

Even though the Void River was not the King Gu primarily responsible for traversing worlds, it was still a King Gu under the Void Gate, possessing some traversal abilities.

Before the majestic and vast Divine Temple, the ancient buildings, creations of the gods themselves, appeared even more grand and awe-inspiring, making the three seem as small as dust.

This was the dwelling place of the gods.

This time, Chen Qing determined the traversal location, landing directly in front of the Divine Temple.

Chen Qing landed, looking around warily, then closed his eyes, carefully sensing everything around the Nightmare Realm’s Divine Temple.

After confirming the Thousand-faced Buddha’s True Monarch Divine Temple showed no unusual changes, he said, “The Thousand-faced Buddha’s Divine Temple hasn’t changed. It seems his Dharma Body here was indeed struck down by the Sword Travel Palace.”

Ji Ru said, “Still, we must be cautious. After all, the Thousand-faced Buddha is a True Monarch, and his methods are beyond what we can imagine.”

Chen Qing nodded, “Then let’s be quick.”

“After we promote King Qi’s Light Gu to King Grade, we’ll leave immediately.”

“King Qi, your Light Gu should have reacted by now.”

King Qi extended his hand, where a black butterfly emerged, fiercely absorbing the Void Power spilling over around them.

Chen Qing reached out to take it, “Wait here, while I take your Light Gu inside. Only I can enter this place; no one else can.”

“I’ll leave you with a jade token. If anything happens, crush it, and I’ll know.”

“If things go wrong, I’ll open the door directly and ask the Sword Travel Palace for assistance.”

After saying this, Chen Qing walked into the Divine Temple, his figure disappearing from sight.

King Qi looked around, astonished, “Master Aunt, did you just mention the Divine Temple?”

Ji Ru sat down, leaning against the corner of the Divine Temple’s wall, “Yes, the first time we came, the True Monarch of Sword Travel Palace paved the way.”

“Don’t move around here; it’s dangerous. Just wait for him in place.”

King Qi looked through the Divine Temple’s large door, seeing Dao Rules intertwining into chains, spanning the temple’s sky.

“Is this the dwelling of a god?”

Ji Ru said, “Indeed it is, but don’t be too afraid, as that god has already fallen.”

King Qi began to speculate, tentatively asking, “Then Master, what kind of existence is he?”

Ji Ru recalled Taichu and then Chen Qing.

Upon learning that Chen Qing was the Void Gate, her faith in Taichu grew even more fervent.

“Your master— you can think of him as a newborn being, similar to a god, who is gradually becoming familiar with his power.”

“When he completely masters his power, he may very well ascend to godhood.”

Ji Ru once discerned that Chen Qing knew he was the Void Gate. At that time, she asked Chen Qing, “Senior Taichu, what does this mean to you?”

Chen Qing’s response was, “A senior, a gentleman, a great entity surpassing gods.”

After hearing Chen Qing say this himself, even if she didn’t believe it, she became more reverent.

Senior Taichu’s existence was more extraordinary than she imagined.

Senior Taichu even intended to create a god!

King Qi felt a heavy weight in his heart. Until this moment, he finally realized how significant the leg he was relying on was when he sought treatment in his desperation.

Master, potentially ascending to godhood!

No wonder Master paid no heed to King Gu, no wonder Master had so many King Gu Catalog. It all made sense now.

King Qi was extremely surprised to learn that all his fellow disciples possessed Light Gu capable of ascending to King-level.

Altogether, seven King Gu!

Though Light Gu’s advancement, everyone knew they were unpredictable, making accurate growth predictions at every stage impossible.

To him, Chen Qing’s success was due to mastering seven King Path diagrams, equivalent to seven King Path inheritances.

What terrifying depth this was!

Even Wu Country, a standout in Nanli, could not compare to carrying Chen Qing’s shoes!

He even thought that Chen Qing’s future force might very well contend with Da Yan.

After arriving here, King Qi instantly felt he understood everything.

Master was no Prince Wen; instead, he was a newborn god familiarizing himself with this world and his powers.

He was constructing his Divine Country step by step, and the seven of them were meant to be part of this Divine Country.

Under a god’s rule, there should indeed be many kings.

Recalling how his disciples were already princes, King Qi foresaw that, once the throne changed hands, these fellow disciples would not miss their chance.

By then, Yan Lie, You Huang, Li Shang, and Ye Chen would each possess two King Gu, just like him.

These kings were what the Master needed: kings beneath a god’s divine throne.

Master, unexpectedly, was a future god!

King Qi suddenly felt fortunate that he had followed Chen Qing’s guidance almost every step of the way. He dared not imagine the consequences if he offended a future god.

At this moment, he recalled Chen Qing’s kind teachings, pondering his future status as Chen Qing’s disciple after his ascent to godhood.
