Chapter 682 606: Li Wei's Divine Kingdom (Part 2)

Even if its body was completely destroyed, it would reappear before long.

Li Wei focused on modifying the world's Rules.

He was completely unaware of the changes happening within the Underworld.

By the time he noticed, he found all sorts of bizarre incidents occurring in the Underworld.

The subterranean races had even started to form groups that worshiped these strange entities.

After several long years of his world modification project, the Rules of the Underworld were finally restored to stability.

However, during this time, the humans of the Sky Dome World had also discovered the strange phenomena appearing in the Underworld.

Just as the humans of the Sky Dome World were about to investigate the cause further, they discovered that all the strange phenomena had vanished.

Li Wei looked at the now fully modified Underworld and smiled.

It had cost him a great deal of Heart Power and a long time to finally complete the modification of the Underworld's Rules.

Li Wei sealed off the entire Underworld, prohibiting any living being from entering or exiting by any means.

Then, he activated the modified Rules of the Underworld.

Overnight, the Dark Races of the Underworld discovered they possessed an Undying Body.

No matter how severe their injuries, they would be fully recovered the next day after a night's sleep.

Even if they were killed by an enemy or eaten by a Magic Beast, they would revive again before long.

Li Wei could sense that large numbers of the Dark Races were courting death.

After discovering they had an Undying Body, the Dark Races began treating their lives as a joke, recklessly courting death.

This caused a great drain on Li Wei's Divine Power.

According to the world Rules he had modified, any group within the Rules' scope would not die. After death, their bodies would be reconstructed through the Elemental Birth and Destruction Law and Natural Law.

However, if their soul died, there was nothing Li Wei could do.

If their Life Force was exhausted, Li Wei couldn't revive them either.

His Elemental Birth and Destruction Law could not yet create life and souls.

To avoid the excessive and meaningless consumption of his Divine Power, Li Wei hurriedly modified the world's Rules.

Now, rebirth after death would come at a price.

Immediately, the number of people courting death dropped rapidly.

'This won't work. If no living beings can die, then there's no food.'

Li Wei then discovered that after bestowing the undying attribute upon all creatures in the world, some had begun to starve to death.

Those who starved would then revive.

This plunged them into an inescapable cycle of death.

The Dark Races even came to call it the "Curse of the Starving Ghost."

Li Wei modified the world's Rules once again, granting the Undying Body only to designated groups while leaving all other creatures as they were.

After countless modifications, the Rules of the Underworld finally reached a state that satisfied Li Wei.

'It still has some flaws, but it's more or less complete.'

By modifying the Rules of the Underworld, Li Wei had forged a legion of Undead Warriors within it.

He looked toward the sealed entrance to the Underworld.

Li Wei opened the entrance that had been sealed for so long.

The Underworld was once again connected to the surface world, the Sky Dome World.

Humans who entered the Underworld found that they would never die in battle there.

Many Professionals seized this opportunity, flocking to the Underworld to hone their combat skills and accumulate battle experience.

For a time, the Underworld unexpectedly became the most popular place in the Sky Dome World.

「In Maple City.」

Gu Sewei, her belly large with child, said to Li Wei, "Have you heard? Strange things are happening in the Underworld. No matter how you fight there, you can't die. Even if you do, you just come back to life."

"A lot of Professionals are rushing to the Underworld, hoping to use its strange environment to quickly raise their Level."

Li Wei said, "Something that defies common sense like this must have a Divine Spirit pulling the strings. It's best not to rush into it."

Gu Sewei nodded, thinking he had a point.

She glanced at her large belly, rubbing it with a hint of resignation as she said, "It's already been a few years. Why isn't it out yet?"

Li Wei caressed her belly and said, "Soon."

Gestating an heir with the bloodline of a Divine Spirit was no easy task.

Because of this, Gu Sewei's strength hadn't increased for several years.

In fact, it had even declined slightly.

However, Li Wei had been helping her comprehend the Demigod Tier Realm in advance.

As long as the child was born, free from the burden of pregnancy, Gu Sewei would be able to break through to the Demigod Level.

Then, with Li Wei's help, she would soon be able to ignite her Divine Fire and forge a Divine Body.

She would gain a nearly endless lifespan.

When one person achieves enlightenment, their whole circle ascends with them.

Unfortunately, before the day came for Li Wei to remake the world, Mage Rota's life had already run its course, and he died of old age.

Li Wei had personally seen him off.

For Mage Rota, not having to live in the coming era was perhaps a blessing in disguise.

It was an era with no path of retreat.

Li Wei sensed the situation within the Magic Net, and his gaze flickered.

'I've found it.'

After several years of searching, Li Wei had finally found the World Will of the Sky Dome World within the Magic Net.

The World Will of the Sky Dome World was hidden very deeply.

It wasn't until Li Wei had spent years turning the entire Magic Net upside down that he finally located it, concealed within the world's underlying Rules at the base of the Magic Net.

"Will of the Sky Dome World, the world is on the verge of destruction. It needs your Power."

The World Will replied, "No. You should not have come for me."

"The Authority of Law in the Sky Dome World is already controlled by the gods. Even as the World Will, I cannot reverse it."

"You fell into the gods' trap. The moment you found me, they found me too."

"The gods already control the Sky Dome World's Authority of Law. The only obstacle remaining for them now is the World Will."

"You exposed me. The gods have found me. The world is now beyond saving."

RUMBLE!

Space-time shattered.

A corner of the Sky Dome World crumbled.

A golden light appeared in the sky.

Numerous figures emerged from within the golden light.

The gods stood tall in the air, looking down upon the world, their gazes fixed on Li Wei and the World Will of the Sky Dome World.

Seeing this, Li Wei showed no sign of surprise.

It seemed he had long known this would happen.

Yet he had come to find the World Will anyway.

Because he was already prepared—prepared to face the gods.

On the day he met with the Magic Goddess, she had prepared a cup of Magic Red Tea for him.

After drinking the Magic Red Tea, Li Wei learned something.

The Magic Goddess's Authority of Law had been stolen by the gods.

Their entire conversation that day had taken place under the watchful eyes and ears of the gods.

There was no privacy to speak of.

The gods knew exactly what the Magic Goddess and Li Wei were planning.

They knew they intended to use the World Will to shatter and redistribute the Sky Dome World's Authority of Law.

This would nullify the Authority of Law that the gods controlled.

The gods, in turn, played along, using Li Wei to find the World Will of the Sky Dome World.

The World Will was hiding in the depths of the Magic Net's foundation.

It had been constantly evading the gods' search.

The World Will possessed the ability to use the Authority of Law to reboot the world.

This was what the gods feared most.

The gods had wanted nothing more than to find the World Will and eliminate it.

The gods descended.

Li Wei said, "Reboot the world."

The World Will replied, "It's useless. The Sky Dome World currently has no Divine Spirits. Even if the world's Authority of Law is rebooted, it will eventually be stolen by the gods again."

Most importantly, rebooting the world meant the World Will would be formatted.

It would be completely erased.

"I have a way,"

Li Wei said.

The World Will gazed at the descending gods.

With no other choice, it chose to trust Li Wei and reboot the world.

With a tremendous RUMBLE, the sky fell and the earth split as space-time warped.

The gods vanished.

The World Will vanished.

Li Wei vanished as well.

Everything returned to calm.

The crumbled corner of the Sky Dome World returned to its original state.

All the Authority of Law controlled by the gods Returned to the world.

Like starving ghosts pouncing on a meal, the gods swarmed madly toward the Sky Dome World, scrambling to seize the world's Authority of Law.

The more Authority of Law they obtained, the more Power they could gain from burning the world.

Li Wei implemented the Rules he had already actualized in the Underworld across the Sky Dome World.

He used the Magic Net left behind by the Magic Goddess, which blanketed the entire world, to transform the whole Sky Dome World into a Divine Kingdom—one whose Rules were established by him.

In the starry sky, stars were extinguished one after another in rapid succession.

The entire Power of the Divine Power Sun was drained.

The Sky Dome World had been converted into a Divine Kingdom.

A Divine Kingdom whose Rules were established by Li Wei.

Within the bounds of this Divine Kingdom, all Warriors of the Sky Dome World's faction would possess an Undying Body.

The Undead Warriors of the Sky Dome World would rise to meet the gods.

The gods would face an endless, undying, and indestructible wave of resistance.
