Chapter 1 Projector

The projector whirred, and after a few seconds, a fluorescent blue ball of light flickered and projected onto the huge screen.

An elegant and exquisite large conference table appeared on the screen. First-level Gold and Silver Inspectors and Executives sat at the left end of the table, while the core members of the Board of Directors sat on the right.

The two Chief seats were empty. Chairman Xian Sheng conjured a goblet from the void, swirled the wine, and asked, "Where's Gustav?"

He was referring to the Chairman of the Board, the leader of the Gustav Consortium, Krie’s grandfather, and the third demigod of Tianfa.

"He went to rescue Sea King," said First-level Gold Inspector Milzhong Yi Mike coldly.

"The Moral Value disappeared five hours ago. Terrorist attacks are constantly taking place in various parts of the Free Federation. Twelve minutes ago, we were still fighting the Evil Chariot. Our Chairman has arrived in New Yorkshire and is fighting with more than four demigods. He may return to the Lingjing at any time."

"At such a critical time, your Second District's only job is to use satellites to listen to phone calls and summon us to a meeting." He vented his dissatisfaction, accusing the Second District's demigods of standing idly by and failing to fulfill their ally duties.

The Evil Faction has launched a general attack, and the faction war has reached a life-and-death situation. The New Yorkshire battlefield directly affects the outcome of the faction war.

Against this background, the demigods of the Second District have been slow to arrive.

"Gustav requesting aid from Sea King? That really shocks us old friends. In the last century, they wished they could kill each other's entire families," Chairman Xian Sheng said with emotion.

Krie’s grandfather, the old Gustav, was a demigod of the Siren profession and one of the founders of the Sea God Church. Later, he fought with Sea King for the position of leader, turned against him, and led his forces to break away from the Sea God Church, join Tianfa, and win over major consortia to form the Board of Directors.

Therefore, the relationship between Tianfa and the Sea God Church has always been strained.

Hearing Chairman Xian Sheng's slightly sarcastic tone, the members of Tianfa's faces darkened. Grand Elder Di Hong sighed and said, "Shura has entered the capital. The five alliance leaders cannot rush to New Yorkshire. The demigods of the Musician-Scholar family have no intention of intervening."

Chairman Xian Sheng shrugged, "Those guys are fine with easy victories, but don't count on them in tough situations."

"Shura has awakened!" The expressions of Tianfa's high-level members changed drastically. The words "fuck! mygod" and other exclamations came from the loudspeaker. They experienced a despair even stronger than the two Chiefs' madness.

"I know you're in a hurry, but please don't be!" Chairman Xian Sheng clapped his hands forcefully, suppressing the noise.

"We already have a way to resolve this calamity, we just need you to contribute the fragments of the Light Compass!"

The clamor stopped instantly. Hoover's teacher, First-level Gold Executive Doyle Jerome, said in a deep voice, "You want the fragments of the Light Compass? Chairman Xian Sheng, you should know the importance of the Light Compass. Tianfa cannot agree without a reasonable reason."

The Nine Elders of the Five Elements Alliance also frowned.

"Of course, I know the importance of the Light Compass better than you. It shares the same origin as the sun and is the only item in the Lingjing that can communicate with the sun. It's a stepping stone to becoming the Lord of the Sun. You want to keep it for the Sun Lords you're training, right?"

Chairman Xian Sheng put down his wine glass and sighed, "Unfortunately, the Day Wanderer you're training hasn't become a peak Ruler yet and isn't qualified to communicate with the sun. Only the Taiyi Sect Leader in the whole world is qualified."

Before the high-level members of Tianfa could refute, he said bluntly, "The reason for the disappearance of the Moral Value is that the Merit List is obscured by Taiyin. The Sun governs merit, as long as you gather six fragments, the Taiyi Sect Leader can use the Star Lord's status to communicate with the sun and restore the Merit List to its position. I don't want to facilitate this matter either, after all, the Sun Lord I'm training isn't that old stud, but everyone, the Evil Faction won't give us time. You have no choice, unless you think the Light Compass fragments are more important than Sea King Gustav and the entire Guardian Camp!"

Speaking of this, he raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. "I'll give you three minutes to consider. Sea King and Gustav may return to the Lingjing at any time during these three minutes."

"Hurry up, you bunch of fools, Sea King and Gustav may have already returned to the Lingjing!"

He leaned back against the edge of the table, slowly savoring the red wine.

This leisurely posture infected the Rulers at the table. Di Hong exchanged a glance with his colleagues at the table and took the lead in saying, "The Five Elements Alliance agrees to provide the two Light Compass fragments in the warehouse. As long as the Guardian Faction can survive this, any price is worth it."

The Light Compass fragments are in the gang's warehouse, but they belong to the Five Elements Alliance's assets. According to the system, the Five Elements Alliance needs the joint signature of the Nine Elders on the document before the Alliance Leader can control it. For the Five Elements Alliance, the Taiyi Sect Leader is already an investment target, and now it is just an advance payment.

The high-level members of Tianfa conferred for a moment, and Mil Mike looked at the camera and said, "We agree."

Chairman Xian Sheng snapped his fingers, "Prepare the Light Compass fragments, I'll go over now."

He then looked at Grand Elder Di Hong, "You can directly contact the five Alliance Leaders." After speaking, he teleported away from the conference room.

A light golden figure turned into a ray of light and entered Zhang Yuanqing's body.

He only felt a burning sensation on his forehead. The nebula mark representing the Star Official emerged, and then the nebula transformed into a round of golden blazing sun with soaring outer flames.

Strong, domineering, and scorching Solar Divinity power poured through the Blazing Sun Mark, burning his bones, cells, and organs. Such domineering power would instantly turn any Star Official to ashes.

But Zhang Yuanqing was a low-end version of the Solar Physique and barely endured it.

"Not bad, you can barely bear my power." The Mo Jun's obsession, which had taken over his body, chuckled.

Then, he raised his hand and waved it gently. Clear and bright sunlight sprinkled out like ink, dispelling the darkness, and the power of slumber shrouded in the temple quickly dissipated.

Zhang Yuanqing saw his sleeping companions and the slumbering Dragon Lord. He was still standing in the original place, still looking sleepy and cruel.

He had talked with the Mo Jun's obsession for no less than five minutes, but these five minutes seemed to have been erased.

As the golden light dispelled the power of darkness, the flow of time within the temple returned to normal, and the slumbering Yin Ji, Xiahou Aotian, Huang Taiji, and others woke up one after another.

The slumbering Dragon Lord stared blankly at the "Moral Heavenly Lord" who suddenly jumped up on the spot, and for a moment, he couldn't understand why the development of the situation had taken such a turn.

It was like you were holding an AK in your hand, blocking a wild boar in a cave. The wild boar could only lie flat and couldn't possibly turn the tables, but unexpectedly, the wild boar turned into Marshal Tianpeng and flew up to give you a rake.

Yin Ji and others, who had awakened, also looked at Zhang Yuanqing, who was covered in golden light, in astonishment, unable to figure out what was going on.

After a brief shock, the slumbering Dragon Lord forcibly suppressed all emotions and calmed down. This time, he fell asleep directly, using the Night Sutra to activate his spiritual power and interact with the deity behind him.

*Thump!*

The slumbering Dragon Lord fell down, taking the initiative to enter a dream, displaying the Ruler-stage Redundant Slumber Domain.

"This is impossible!" The awakened Bloodthirsty Potion saw the situation clearly and also murmured to himself.

Zhang Yuanqing took a step forward, came to the slumbering Dragon Lord, grabbed the throat of this peak Saint, and said coldly, "You want to know who I am, right? Let me tell you, I am Yuanshi Tianzun!"

Yuanshi Tianzun!

The four words Yuanshi Tianzun exploded in the ears of the slumbering Dragon Lord and the Bloodthirsty Potion like thunder, causing their pupils to shrink suddenly and their expressions to freeze.

Yin Ji's eyes widened suddenly, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

She couldn't distinguish her mood at this moment. Joy, sorrow, confusion, shock... a mixture of feelings surged endlessly.

She didn't know the reason for Yuanshi Tianzun's resurrection, but if it was him, everything would be reasonable. There was no Moral Heavenly Lord, it was just a temporary identity used by Yuanshi.

As for the others, except for Jiang Ju, who was seriously injured and unconscious, they all knew that Yuanshi Tianzun had been resurrected and returned, and their reactions were very calm.

Hey, you've already done all the acting, what am I supposed to do... Zhang Yuanqing muttered to himself.

He was like an audience, watching the Mo Jun's obsession manipulate him to put on the Yuanshi Tianzun persona and show off in front of everyone!

"So it's you, so it's you!" The slumbering Dragon Lord roared and struggled violently, "So the one I wanted to kill was you, why haven't you died yet, why haven't you died yet!"

The first "why" was a question of doubt, the second "why" was a hoarse and desperate question.

He was only one step away from the Ruler. As long as he killed the Guardian professionals in the dungeon, he could cross this threshold and enter a completely new level, but now the door to the Ruler had closed.

"You're not worthy to know." A heart-rending scream came from the golden flames in Zhang Yuanqing's palm, but it subsided after two seconds.

Golden flames spewed out, engulfing the slumbering Dragon Lord.

Zhang Yuanqing casually threw the charred enemy behind him.

"Yin Ji, yours." He then opened his palm towards the Bloodthirsty Potion, and the scorching golden flames rose high, engulfing the Bloodthirsty Potion.

"No, no, no!" The Bloodthirsty Potion instantly turned into a dying charred wood.

"Huang Taiji, yours!" Zhang Yuanqing threw the Bloodthirsty Potion to Huang Taiji's feet.

Huang Taiji looked down at the dying Bloodthirsty Potion, his serious expression suddenly excited.

This is the peak.

The Mo Jun's obsession's physical strength is only at the Ruler level. If reality is really in chaos, he won't be able to handle anything...

Zhang Yuanqing, who was watching all of this from the audience's perspective, was puzzled.

As soon as he thought this, he saw brilliant starlight rising from under his feet. The next moment, the temple disappeared, replaced by a brilliant galaxy.

In the center of this cosmic galaxy was a dark celestial body, with countless brilliant stars revolving around the giant celestial body, constantly throwing themselves into it.

He had left the Killing Dungeon and arrived in an unknown space!
