Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!

The Five-Element God King was utterly shocked by Daniel's words.

Lord Daniel's meaning was…

To make this city—no, this academy—a top-tier power within the God Realm?

Such ambition truly lived up to Lord Daniel's reputation!

However, becoming one of the most powerful forces in the God Realm…

Previously, the Five-Element God King believed that his Five-Element God Realm barely qualified as a top-tier force.

After all, with the existence of the Ink Sea God King and four other God Kings, the Five-Element God Realm could boast six God Kings!

Such a realm should have a decent ranking within the God Realm.

But what the Five-Element God King had not expected was…

After witnessing the foundation of the Greenwood God Realm, he had completely abandoned such thoughts.

When compared to the Greenwood God Realm, the Five-Element God Realm…

Was nothing!

The resources and configuration of the Greenwood God Realm had left the Five-Element God King envious for a long time.

A God Sovereign, a God Lord-rank Mortal Realm, and even numerous God Kings—though some were of average strength.

Moreover, even among prodigies under a hundred years old, it was possible to find one who had become a God King.

This was entirely out of the Five-Element God Realm's league.

In hindsight, the fact that he had managed to escape from the Greenwood God Realm back then could only be attributed to sheer luck.

Otherwise, he might have perished there.

So when Daniel declared his intention to make Crossbridge Academy a top-tier power, the Five-Element God King couldn't help but feel it was an impossible task.

…

After disappearing, Daniel began preparing to enter closed-door cultivation once again.

This time, his goal was to forge tens of thousands of level 14 forges and place them throughout Crossbridge World.

By then, Big White's growth rate would be nothing short of terrifying.

Meanwhile, after finalizing the general plan with the Five-Element God King, Rowan understood that many people in the Mortal Realm were likely waiting for an explanation.

He sent people to reassure the residents of Riverside City while personally heading to Crossbridge World.

…

Crossbridge World.

Green and the others were still standing guard.

They knew that Daniel wouldn't do something meaningless.

No matter what his purpose was, he would eventually provide them with an explanation.

At that moment, they saw a figure step out from the multicolored pillar of light.

It was Vice Headmaster Rowan.

"Director Rowan… Oh no, Vice Headmaster!"

Nina was the first to greet him.

"Vice Headmaster, what exactly happened to Riverside City this time? Why has it become like this?"

Green was the first to ask.

"It's like this," Rowan began, recounting Daniel's earlier explanation to them.

He made sure they understood the significance of Riverside City entering the God Realm.

"I see…"

Green nodded, indicating that he fully understood.

"So Daniel really came back? But why didn't he come to see us?"

Nina complained a bit.

"This time, the headmaster didn't have any extra time. Even the tasks he arranged for us were hurriedly delegated before he disappeared. He must have had more important matters to attend to," Rowan explained before adding,

"Also, the headmaster is very satisfied with the three of you."

"If you don't believe me, you can come with me to the God Realm and see the headmaster yourself. Then you'll know everything." Rowan proposed.

However, after hearing this suggestion, the group fell silent.

"I think I'll pass. I need to finish dealing with some matters here before heading to the God Realm."

"As for me, I'd rather enter the God Realm through its official gates. This method doesn't feel right."

Green echoed similar sentiments.

Seeing their refusals, Rowan didn't insist.

"By the way, Vice Headmaster, do you know anything about Rose and Reed, who ascended to the God Realm earlier?" Nina asked at this point.

"I've only heard bits and pieces from the headmaster. Rose and Reed recently achieved remarkable results in a competition within the God Realm," Rowan replied.

"Both of them are now close to reaching the rank of God Lord."

Hearing Rowan's words, the other three were astonished.

They hadn't expected that in just a few years, Rose and Reed had already left them far behind.

It seemed the God Realm truly was extraordinary!

"But don't let this discourage you. Remember, this is the God Realm. Crossbridge World places significant limits on you. Once you enter the God Realm, that's when you'll truly soar," Rowan encouraged them.

In fact, the three of them had long been capable of ascending to the God Realm.

However, they were reluctant because their subordinates hadn't reached the appropriate levels.

They couldn't bring themselves to leave them behind.

In truth, when Daniel was in the God Realm, he had instructed Rowan to have Green and the others stay in the Mortal Realm a little longer.

No one knew the exact reason why.

But now, it seemed there was no need to invoke Daniel's name to convince them.

This was a good sign, proving that Daniel's judgment wasn't wrong.

After chatting with them for a while, Rowan left.

He hadn't forgotten his main task: to announce the details of the selection process and other plans he had discussed with the Five-Element God King to the entire Mortal Realm.

Through the various branches of Crossbridge Academy, Rowan and the others disseminated the information.

At the Riverside City Sanctuary, a selection would be held.

The Dragon Gate Challenge.

Anyone who successfully crossed the Dragon Gate would gain the qualification to ascend directly to the God Realm.

They wouldn't even need to reach the peak level of the Mortal Realm.

This announcement caused an uproar across Crossbridge World.

For those who had reached the world's limit over the past few years, it presented a difficult choice.

Should they ascend to the God Realm?

Ascending meant stepping into the unknown, with an uncertain future.

But staying behind risked facing another world upgrade, which would raise the ascension threshold.

This dilemma had frustrated many people.

Some had already prepared to ascend, even inviting friends to witness their ascension ceremony.

But at the most critical moment, they found themselves stuck.

The world's upgrade prevented their ascension.

This awkward situation had occurred more than once.

Thus, everyone who reached the world's limit felt torn.

…

As for Daniel, he was currently in closed-door cultivation.

Around him floated a vast collection of books and divine spells.

Numerous automated magic arrays continuously forged level 14 forges.

Daniel was perfecting Genesis. Once completed, he planned to send it to Rose and Reed first.

They were likely in need of such a resource.

This time, Daniel had incorporated many commonly used divine spells into Genesis.

These had been gathered from the Life Temple.

The divine spells covered various fields and provided Daniel with excellent reference material.

The divine spell manuscripts floated in the air, and whenever Daniel needed them, passages of text would flow toward him,

eventually appearing in the blank book in his hands.

That's right—this was the next chapter of Genesis that Daniel was preparing to complete.

It was still being compiled continuously.

Occasionally, sections that didn't fit needed revisions and adjustments.

At the same time, Daniel discovered something remarkable:

The ancient divine spell from the Life Temple could be practiced not only by humans but also by beings like Big White.

This discovery was undoubtedly a significant breakthrough. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire

It even accelerated Big White's progress considerably.

Now, Daniel was ready for everything—only the final piece was missing!

As for that crucial final piece…

Daniel glanced at the neatly arranged level 14 forges.

When the time came, they would all be deployed across Crossbridge World.

He couldn't wait to see how terrifying Big White's growth rate would become!
