Starting with Growing Mushrooms

"Surya? How dare you! How dare you provoke our lord Ma!"

Amidst the masses of the descending crowd, countless strong voices reprimanded.

They hailed from all levels of strength from the 1 to 10 Trial Universes, brought together by the maturely developed Magaras.

This was the Divine Kingdom that Magaras had redeveloped.

To fulfill his ambition, conquer this final twelfth trial, and elevate the world up a dimension!

Ultimately, creating the Twilight of the Gods, killing all gods... as the Celestial Will, he ascends to the pinnacle of the world, opening the next era of the Immortal Path.

"Such audacity, that one called Surya, daring to disrespect our king!"

"Courting death!"

In the eyes of these followers,

The original world was so hopeless, it was thanks to Ma becoming the beacon of light in their lives, allowing them to bloom with hope amidst despair.

Now, someone was insulting their faith, how could they endure it?

Seeing this, Surya was not surprised, "He doesn’t dare come himself, sending you guys to invade this place, is he really worth your following?"

With a light retort, Surya directly unleashed his brand new Divine Power.

Middle Tao Path.

Surya seemed to enter a profound state of omniscience.

Tranquil, harmonious, as if he was one with the entire cosmos.

"My people..."

He merely glanced at the people below, and they were forcibly taken into his citizenry.

[To possess the populace is to possess myself, to have what the populace has is to have what I have.]

In an instant,

The thermal energy, light energy, destiny, wisdom, radiation, water, fire, and all the abilities, talents, and insights of the surrounding populace in various universes poured into Surya’s body like a tidal wave.

Suddenly, the weather changed dramatically.

A giant eye, emanating the traits of the Celestial Will Race, seemed to gather in the sky over the battlefield, with lightning crackling in its gaze, watching over all living beings.

"What is this power?"

"Celestial Will?"

"How is it possible, it seems like the birth of this Divine Object gave the Celestial Will Race a second trait!"

In everyone’s astonishment, a divine pressure that demanded reverence seemed to rise from within Surya.

"So that’s what it is?"

Surya showed a knowing look, "This power, it’s an alternative God, no wonder it chose me."

This was a different kind of omniscience from wisdom.

If one had to make an analogy, the cosmos was like a body.

Now,

He was akin to considering the populace of the cosmos as his brain cells, with countless populace brain cells providing him with immense thoughts, allowing him to engage in super deep thinking.

"Strange fellow, let’s see how I defeat you!"

In the distance, the strong one with 1,700 shackles from the Tenth Trial scoffed, transforming into a rapid shadow rushing towards Surya.

And Surya slowly lifted his head, gazing at this formidable fellow, and suddenly vanished from where he stood.

"Remarkable strength, incredibly exaggerated number of shackles."

Surya murmured, showing a hint of surprise, directly flying into the nearby crowd.

With only over a hundred shackles himself, he naturally had to avoid the edge for now.

But now possessing world-shocking wisdom, he swiftly maneuvered through the battlefield crowd, dismantling their Tao Spirits one by one, turning them back into shackles...

"What are you doing?"

"Where did my Tao Spirit go?"

"Oh no!"

Then, he actually started to dismantle shackles barehanded, forging a new Tao Spirit.

He flashed constantly on the battlefield, and the Tao Spirit kept expanding, with all talents at his disposal, there was no resistance in cultivating and merging any shackle.

This was an incredible act in everyone’s eyes!

No one had ever studied a new Tao Spirit on the spot before.

As each Tao Spirit required extremely complex knowledge, research, and energy.

Now Surya was like someone on the battlefield suddenly wanting to use planes and cannons, manually creating a handcrafted cannon, a handcrafted airplane using rifles, scrap iron from the ground...

Yet, the precision was extremely high, the technology very strong, not only usable but also very useful!

"This guy... is truly absurd." Magaras took a deep breath, suddenly laughing in extreme anger, "Very well, indeed has the style of God."

"Before fighting the real God, let’s practice on you first."

Bang!

Three hundred shackles.

Four hundred shackles...

As the most learned existence, Surya’s wisdom was fully realized at this moment.

As a colossal Tao Spirit continuously expanded, the oppressive aura spread in all directions.

Shackles like weeds in a field were swiftly harvested, rising like waves of wheat, forcibly absorbed by Surya.

"Incredible, he’s already surged past eight hundred shackles..."

"The ninth hundredth shackle, normally, it should get harder to add new shackles further on."

"It seems this monster indeed already has the strength to single-handedly challenge our entire dimension-lowering army!"

"How is he doing this?"

Those who chose to follow Magaras were essentially the frustrated bottom-tier strong ones, so the current Surya was a substantial pressure to them.

Just then,

The strongest one with over 1,700 shackles, recruited from the Tenth Trial’s front line, finally caught up with Surya who was running among the crowd.

Bang!

"Running so long, finally caught up with you." He swung his astonishing giant axe Tao Artifact with a fierce chop.

The giant axe Tao Spirit gained intelligence and shouted to its owner: "Dad, this guy doesn’t look easy to chop, after this battle I want to find a pretty lady!"

Amidst the raging wind, the over a hundred shackles strong one shouted: "Win this fight, I’ll become a pretty lady myself! Chop him for me!"

"Got it!" The giant axe swung down fiercely.

Surya raised his head, looked at the giant axe falling from the sky, slightly surprised by its power, and whispered, "Impressive strength."

The next moment, he waved his hand, and the Tao Spirit Angel behind him aimed at the sky, "Michael, go."

Countless lights covered the entire sky.

The giant axe suddenly shattered.

"No!!" The strong one clutching the shattered giant axe suddenly shouted frantically.

"There’s no meaning in you all being together."

Surya turned his head, looking towards the sky, as if he saw Magaras hiding opposite him:

"Stop these meaningless actions, if you want to bring back the parallel Divine Object, come yourself!"

On the other side of the door, Magaras looked at the arrogant Surya.

That indifferent expression seemed to recall when, as a child on the planet, he saw this adult’s indifferent look on the road.

It was he who turned his homeland into a mining planet and brought it into the World of Gods...

"The thorn in my heart, I will ultimately remove it!"

Recalling everything from before, Magaras sighed softly,

"High parallel Divine Object, multidimensional unity..." Apart from his main body, nine Magaras tore open the sky and descended into this dimension.

Nine become one.

A grand figure, full of ample Divine Power reserves, fell down from the sky.

Containing Evolution, time, parallelism, transmission... A true embodiment of Celestial Will truly descended into this world.

His mere arrival gave a sense of the end of the world.

"You shouldn’t have angered me, Surya."

A cold figure stepped forward step by step, "You should understand, in the 165th Divine Era, I pioneered the method to accommodate multiple Divine Objects."

"Now, I am the king of Celestial Will, formed by more than a dozen Divine Objects combined!"

"The Celestial Will of Harris you encountered in the first trial and second trial is not of the same level as me."

"As the Celestial Will possessing Multiple Divine Powers... I’m completely different from any Celestial Will you met before."

"And you... are nothing but an ant with a single Divine Object."

Magaras’ arrival brought a trembling sensation from the depths of the soul, surging to the heart.

...

At the forefront of the Tenth Trial Universe.

At the central battlefield command.

In the room, that strong figure with 1700 chains of the giant axe also shouted in sync, "No!!"

He seemed to empathize with his projection in the first trial.

"Haha, I didn’t expect Ma... to be so strong."

Through that strong figure with 1700 chains, the three major origin entities from the mother civilization cast their gaze down,

"Truly incredible."

"Yes, fortunately, the subordinate he subdued in the tenth trial is the spy we sent, we can accept his projection and the information for combat over there."

That strong figure with a giant axe in the first trial was secretly monitored by them.

"Although strength-wise, he’s not as formidable as our world’s Tenth Heavenly Will, in terms of rank, his Celestial Will is... extremely terrifying!"

"Yes, Divine Power... truly an enviable power."

They kept whispering.

"Do you think he is... the predestined king of Celestial Will of the final Twelfth Trial, but just descended early into the preceding trial?"

"There’s that possibility."

"Then we absolutely can’t let him grow."

They kept discussing, but they didn’t know that Magaras is indeed the final boss of the Twelfth Trial in the Mushroom Soup.

But not the final boss of this super-large universe’s Twelfth Trial.

Though if they must think so...

They could tie in some origin similarity.

After all, it’s undeniable that Magaras is powerful enough.

"If he comes to us, can we win?"

"That would be no problem, his Tao Spirit will betray."

They said this, looking at the divine mother Galina, the legendary origin mother who pioneered the Sixth Divine Era realm.

Galina smiled, "Although I haven’t perfected the Ninth Realm... I have laid out the basic framework."

"According to my design, the Ninth Realm emerges through children killing their parents to descend."

Galina’s eyes flashed with a trace of sickness and madness,

"Parents are the nourishment for their children, dying in the Eighth Tier, their children... the Tao Spirit, will be born in the Ninth Realm."

"This is what a qualified parent should do, parents should sacrifice for children, parents should pave the way for future generations, this is the Cosmos I dream of..."

She looked towards Magaras in the distance,

"As long as they have cultivated Tao Spirit, then, their Tao Spirit will stab their biological parents at the crucial moment..."

If you don’t cultivate Tao Spirit, you can’t enter the Tao Spirit Realm.

If you cultivate Tao Spirit, the child will kill his biological parents.

No matter how you choose, it’s wrong.

This is the heavenly order of this universe modified by them.

Galina licked her scarlet lips, looking at Magaras,

"He seems very steady, but in reality, he’s a very proud man, with his pride, he surely will come to find us..."

"They don’t know the truth of the universe, the realm is altered by us... once he comes, it’s a dead end."

The nearby origin entities smiled slightly.

Divine Object, certainly surprises on the first encounter.

But they, how are they not first-encounter surprises?

Without understanding their background, there’s absolutely no way to deal with them.

They, through the perspective of the strong figure of the 1700th Divine Era, watched that battle below, "Come quickly, we are waiting for you."

Watching the battle between Magaras and Surya, their gaze grew increasingly fiery, greed becoming more pronounced.

World of Gods, God of Longevity, God, God of Merchants... what a mysterious and radiant world is that.
