Pretending To Be A Boss
Chapter 935 - 75: The Master of Eden's Ambition

Observation Platform.

After Tang Jing finished speaking, Song Que asked:

"Could it be that you've gone to that Divine Realm?"

Only Tang Jing had been there, so to everyone, he was the sole authority on what lay within the Divine Realm.

"The Divine Realm must have flaws, right? Tang Xian and you both found loopholes in the Divine Realm, didn't you? If the existence is as supreme as the Lord of Eden, the Divine Realm itself feels somewhat redundant," Akasi said.

Tang Jing shook his head slightly:

"Perhaps we've been misjudging one thing all along."

"What thing?"

"Qi Yuan never summoned me into the Divine Realm, neither my brother nor I ever entered her Divine Realm."

"Why do I feel like I can't quite follow you?"

Everyone was baffled by Tang Jing's words.

Tang Jing said:

"The one who brought my brother into the Divine Realm was the angelized version of me, and the one who brought me into the Divine Realm was also the angelized version of me. Maybe the reason that Divine Realm could be dismantled wasn't that my brother and I easily found its loopholes. It was simply because it was merely a watered-down replica of the Divine Realm."

"So the true Divine Realm... should be drawn in by the Order Keeper herself?" Song Que started to understand.

The concept of the Divine Realm first appeared when Tang Xian faced the angelized Tang Jing.

But at that time, the true Order Keeper, Qi Yuan, had not yet awakened.

In other words, that Divine Realm was fake, a creation using Tang Jing as a vessel by the Order Keeper.

Tang Jing was powerful, but compared to Qi Yuan, he was like a firefly trying to outshine the brilliance of the moon.

Thus, the true Divine Realm might not be what they imagined it to be.

"Could it be that now all we can do is sit here and wait?" Tang Feiji asked.

"Wait," Tang Jing said decisively.

...

...

Holy Mountain.

The beasts kneeling on both sides looked deeply anxious and uneasy. That was because the Order Keeper, Origin, and the Lord of Eden hadn't moved for a very long time.

No living creature dared to approach them.

Even with both godlike entities remaining motionless, the terrifying energy surrounding them was enough to obliterate any nearby Soul Crystals.

This battle wasn't as earth-shaking and apocalyptic as imagined.

The Lord of Eden and the Order Keeper appeared like two statues.

No one had any clue that this confrontation had shifted into some strange dimension; all they could see was a distant image.

If this place could be called the Divine Realm, then at this moment, the Lord of Eden and Qi Yuan were in the Divine Realm.

Qi Yuan's Divine Realm.

It was no longer a collection of countless matrix-arranged Levitating Islands; within Qi Yuan's Divine Realm, there was now a vast and boundless mechanized metropolis.

It resembled a conceptual future city.

Within the colossal towers resided the souls of countless Judgment Knights.

This was a virtual world, yet everything within it existed in data form.

The Lord of Eden ultimately decided to enter Qi Yuan's Divine Realm for a battle, much like how it had voluntarily revoked restrictions on the gods.

When it came to confronting Qi Yuan, the Lord of Eden exhibited immense initiative.

"Since you've come here, you cannot defeat me. This is my home turf, and you cannot leave," Qi Yuan said as her arm casually lifted.

The world felt dim. This was because there was no sky; all light sources here emanated solely from the machinery.

In the towers, countless human souls ceaselessly toiled within.

Once, Qiao Shanshan asked Qi Yuan where humanity's final destination lay.

After leaving Baichuan City, was there any other refuge? What Qi Yuan actually referred to was this place.

Numerous towers stood in the distance, their pinnacles shimmering with red lights. These were warning signals triggered by the detection of an anomaly within the Divine Realm.

The anomaly was none other than the Lord of Eden.

Countless red beams shot forth from all directions.

The Lord of Eden naturally understood that these beams possessed tremendous destructive power. Since the two entities had entered the consciousness domain, rules were determined by whose territory they stood on.

As it attempted to evade, the defense mechanisms of this Divine Realm were admittedly not swift, yet as the Lord of Eden moved, it realized its actions served no purpose at all.

Here, the layering of space was dictated entirely by Qi Yuan. No matter how the Lord of Eden moved, it only drew closer to its ruin.

In the blink of an eye, the outcome seemed about to be decided.

The beams from the countless towers came crashing down. In Qi Yuan's vision, everything combusted and collapsed violently.

The body of the Lord of Eden was right at the epicenter of the explosion.

This world-destructive energy, were it unleashed in the real world, would be enough to turn the vast regions surrounding the Holy Mountain into wasteland.

But within the Divine Realm, this energy was continuously compressed under Qi Yuan's will.

All the power seemed to have gained awareness—it only sought to annihilate the Lord of Eden and would not scatter outward.

This world naturally had no loopholes, and even if it did, it wouldn't rapidly disintegrate like the Divine Realm Tang Xian and Tang Jing once entered.

The sole escape from this world was Qi Yuan herself.

This was Qi Yuan's core realm. She was not a human; rather, she was a machine that possessed a human soul. Within the depths of her mind, everything stored here was everlasting.

The explosion gradually settled into silence, leaving the figure of the Lord of Eden battered and shattered.

Looking at Tang Xian's face, Qi Yuan said:

"Nether Phoenix, Galaxy, Judge, Destroyer, Sea God, Lost Bird—no matter how much power you've gathered, here, you and I are merely data that can be read, written, and stored. And I hold the authority to delete and create. Having humanity imbues me with many unknown traits; they might become my weaknesses, but they also grant me glimpses of joy I've never experienced before."
