Starting with Growing Mushrooms

A trace of worry flashed in Munis’s eyes, "You want to go above, into the Cosmic Layer of the Second Trial Universe?"

But he suddenly sensed a feeling of discord.

The head inside the glass bottle bumped a few times against the transparent glass,

"Then why are you building this universe?"

He peeked around,

"Once this universe continues to ascend dimensions... the environment will continue to change, and everything you’re constructing now will be useless."

God smeared a lump of clay onto the sand table, raised his head, and said:

"It’s simple, I’m planning to build here, naturally preparing to stay for a while."

"As for the higher cosmic layers? We can go there without ascending dimensions."

Yes, he intended to use this First Trial world as a base camp.

That’s why he was modifying this temporary living environment.

Munis looked bewildered, "But that’s still a conceptual void world. Without ascending dimensions, it won’t materialize... The people there still live in the void."

"Can’t we go to the void worlds?" At this moment, the Goddess of Destiny, Fortuna, opened the door and walked in to report.

And casually said, "Conceptually, the Twelve Trial Worlds are probably similar to parallel worlds."

"We can go with the Divine Power of the Parallel Gods, though you might not know what the Parallel Gods are."

As if to confirm Fortuna’s hypothesis.

An eagle suddenly landed on Fortuna’s shoulder, one that devours parallel worlds, an Era Eagle.

"That eagle is..." Munis sensed the presence of various special divine powers on the bird.

"Fairies."

Fortuna smiled, "Show them a trick."

Chirp chirp!

Though it was a mighty eagle, it emitted a sound like a baby bird.

Soon it stretched out a claw, tearing through space, revealing another mysterious, hazy world.

Whoa—

Out of the world gate, endless white fog drifted.

It seemed to contain incredible groups of flora and fauna within.

"What is that..." Munis felt more surprised today than ever before in his life.

Before Fortuna could continue boasting, a streak of light pierced the clouds from the sky in the opposite world.

Countless clouds dispersed.

A towering, mighty creature emerged before them.

His skin looked like it was covered with countless starfish-like suction cup patterns, densely packed together.

"What is this?"

The suction-cup creature’s voice echoed in surprise, "A desert environment... Isn’t this the First Trial Universe I passed by before?"

The creature inquisitively leaned forward:

"Hey? Is there anyone over there?"

"Is this some kind of natural occurrence? Accidentally connecting another world like a black hole, wormhole?"

He kept shouting, is anyone there, is anyone there.

After asking a few times with no response from the opposite gate, he couldn’t resist boldly sticking his head through.

Thus, he saw several people on God’s laboratory side.

"A weak Seventh Tier?"

He looked at God.

"Hey, this head, is it Munis who hosted me when I passed by before? How did you get decapitated and confined in a glass bottle?"

The gaze of that voice finally fell upon someone.

"Ahhhhh!" Fortuna let out a sharp, explosive warning, "Close it, close it! What is this thing?"

The Era Eagle immediately followed her command, quickly attempting to close the rift.

But it was too late.

"This bird is miraculous, trying to leave?"

The suction-cup creature showed a hint of delight.

His movements were extremely swift, reaching out and grabbing the eagle in the palm of his hand.

"And you all!"

Grasping the eagle, his eyes suddenly fell on the opposite side,

"I can actually return! It really is true! Looks like I’m in luck! Hahaha, I can return to the First Trial world..."

He said.

He was about to step over.

That person’s aura was overwhelmingly terrifying, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

Even Fortuna, with an Eighth Tier Divine Format at the Second Layer, had her mind go blank under such an imposing presence.

But in the next moment, God pointed with a trace of Chaos.

Ah!

The person’s hand was instantly enveloped by Chaos, as if it had been thrust into a furnace, it recoiled sharply.

"So painful, so painful, what is this? How did a little Seventh Tier waste like you manage this? I’ll kill you!!"

The furious voice echoed again.

"Trying to leave?"

God’s thoughts moved, and the bit of Chaos followed the person’s aura, entering the conceptual dimension of the Second Trial.

Ahhh!!!

The Chaos Flame pursued, rapidly engulfing the person’s extended arm.

"It’s burning, it’s burning, what is this..." the suction-cup creature screamed with a mournful and eerie wail.

As the parallel gate closed, the other side’s screams abruptly ceased.

Only a relieved Fortuna was left, patting her chest, "That scared me to death, how did something like that suddenly appear from the other side?"

Fortuna was terribly frightened, suddenly realizing the room was dead silent.

She turned her head, finding God staring straight at her.

She smiled awkwardly and quickly lowered her head:

"Sorry, I acted too fast, which led to a great disaster. Who knew the parallel gate of this universe can’t be opened whimsically."

God’s gaze was deep: "The parallel gates of our World of Gods should not be opened whimsically either."

Fortuna looked a bit embarrassed,

"I just wanted to demonstrate that as the Goddess of Destiny, I can grasp the fate of parallel worlds, I could open the world gate of the Second Trial universe."
