Chapter 475: I Will Establish a Realm When I Become a God!

Meng Mei opened the door.

"Girl, don't lie to me. That didn't sound like a movie. It was more of a scratching noise, like the air conditioner is broken," her chattering mother said, craning her neck to peek inside. Seeing nothing, she couldn't help but add,

"We're wealthy, so you don't need to work, but you shouldn't just spend all day in your room doing nothing! All you do is play games and watch movies. You're a grown woman in your twenties now, it's time to think about getting married. See if there's anyone you like. Money isn't important;

our family doesn't care about social status, but he needs to be capable. He should inherit your father's business, gain some experience as a senior executive in the company while your dad is still young and can guide a successor, otherwise..."

"Mom!" Meng Mei couldn't help but exclaim.

Her mother, still graceful, continued her earnest nagging, "You're our family's lucky charm. Ever since I gave birth to you, your father's business has flourished... Your dad treasures you, and we're not pressuring you, which is why we let you find someone yourself. In other families, a match would have been arranged long ago. Your dad wants to find a successor so he can enjoy a comfortable life. There are a few talented men in your dad's company; although they're over thirty, they're steady. If it really doesn't work out... you still need to think about your mom and dad. It's not forcing you; you'd just meet for tea."

Meng Mei's face darkened, and she quickly pushed her mother out the door. "Mom, I get it! I get it! I just had a video call with someone. He's handsome and capable! His family owns tons of mines! Rich beyond imagination!"

"Oh? Is he some coal-mining nouveau riche from a mining province? You're not lying to me, are you? If you've really found a boyfriend, when can you bring him to meet us, have dinner at home, and let your dad size him up..." Her mother's voice continued to chatter from outside the door.

Meng Mei took a deep breath, too lazy to respond. After all, her family's nagging about marriage wasn't new. She stretched out her hand.

*Whoosh!*

A fiery red fireball erupted from her palm, radiating incredible heat.

Her eyes grew brighter, as if shimmering with colorful light. "A second-order Dao technique, though not as simple or direct as a pistol, nor as lethal... but this is reality! The real world, Earth!!"

My heavens!

She was utterly astonished.

"I've successfully broken through a certain realm and truly become the first Saint on Earth?"

"A small step for Meng Mei, a giant leap for Earth?"

Although this mortal body on Earth was only second-order and its combat ability naturally couldn't compare to modern firearms, it signified too many terrifying things.

The myriad worlds within were all real.

At first, she had only speculated, even mentally preparing herself, but its appearance in reality would completely shock anyone!

To think that a true Saint, capable of living for a long eight thousand years—surpassing five millennia of human civilization—had actually appeared, alive and well, on Earth in real life?

Bizarre and fantastical!

The incredible shock was indescribable.

It even created a dramatic and astonishing contrast with her mother's earlier chatter about ordinary daily life!

In her mind, she even had the illusion that her previous life was that of a true titan of the Three Realms—the Empress Dowager of the Earth—and that she had now transmigrated to Earth, experiencing a mere twenty years as an ordinary rich girl.

"Overbearing Immortal Emperor, Reborn in the City?" Meng Mei murmured.

Xu Zhi was also secretly observing Meng Mei at this moment.

He watched her in the room, collecting data on the first player, to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

Her shock left him somewhat speechless, and a little reflective.

"You are the second human to bring supernatural abilities into real-world Earth..."

He suddenly spoke, as if conversing with the flustered Meng Mei across space, "Although it's only second-order, don't be surprised, don't be shocked, because this path of supernatural cultivation was also developed with your participation, evolved from nothing in the sandbox world!"

"The path is walked one step at a time."

The players, by helping to deduce the system, naturally contributed greatly to this achievement.

*Whoosh!*

"Calm down, I need to calm down first..."

"It truly is the myriad worlds!!" Meng Mei eagerly returned to her computer, no longer rushing to test the real-world supernatural abilities she'd gained from the game. Her consciousness shifted back to her main body.

"I might be the first modern human on Earth to possess supernatural powers, even reaching the Saint realm."

"I can't stay outside any longer. Thinking things through inside saves more time. I'm already a Saint; although I've reached the absolute peak there, I'm still the weakest Saint. Many plans are about to be set in motion at the Peach Blossom Convention..."

*Whoosh!*

She opened her eyes.

Her surroundings were as vibrant as ever: an elegant and luxurious Heavenly Court lounge, imbued with an ancient charm. She flicked her sleeve, and the door opened without a breeze. She strode out. During her brief departure to check on her real-world body, a full four or five days had passed in the Peach Blossom Convention.

It felt strangely like "a day in the mountains, a thousand years in the world."

*Whoosh!!*

With a gentle wave of her sleeve, she reappeared, seated upon the Queen Mother's throne, high above, overlooking the entire Peach Blossom Convention. The feast of fine wines and delicacies continued, and celestial titans exchanged insights.

This was a rare gathering, occurring only once every few centuries, and thus very precious to these beings.

Four or five days was a very short time for these long-lived celestial titans; it wasn't even enough for a single session of secluded cultivation. And adapting to one's new divine powers for four or five days after becoming a deity was perfectly normal, so no one paid it any mind.

"Has Her Ladyship already adapted to her powers?"

The surroundings stirred with slight surprise, and gazes turned upward. Instantly, the entire hall fell silent.

Such was the prestige of the Empress Dowager of the Earth, a being who commanded the respect of everyone in the Three Realms.

Since the creation of the world, she had transformed into the Jianmu Tree and the Dragon Veins, protecting all living beings. She had never killed a single creature, and her public image had always been that of the compassionate, benevolent, and gentle Empress Dowager of the Earth.

In the past, she had assisted the Human Ancestor Xu Younian in resisting the ancient god tribulation, then taught Dao Changsheng to resist the Ancestral Witch tribulation, and later personally established the Dragon Veins to resist the Demon Realm tribulation, thereby completely severing the cycle of heavenly calamities, preventing deities from becoming gods by slaughtering the common mortals...

Such a being, almost never acting out of self-interest and constantly seeking the welfare of all beings, was indeed the most venerable and benevolent Saint in heaven and earth.

From her elevated seat, the Empress Dowager of the Earth slowly began to speak, holy light radiating and illuminating the mortal realm, "Since the creation of heaven and earth, countless individuals have possessed heaven-defying combat power, and countless more have been incredibly brilliant. My own combat power and talent are extremely low, far inferior to those of Emperor Lei Tian, Dao Changsheng, Emperor Qi, and others. Yet, I have always followed my true heart, believing that treating others with kindness will eventually be rewarded... I once thought that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and thus established the lineage of faith."

"The meaning of the Dragon Veins is for deities to protect all beings, and in return, beings offer incense. It is nothing more than this: the gods are kind to humans, and humans are kind to the gods."

The silence below grew deeper, filled with reverence.

Indeed, she had established a system for heaven and earth, guiding the gods to do good and accumulate virtue. The celestial deities no longer became tyrants, slaughtering all beings, and a complete order had been established.

"Today, the ceremony of becoming a deity at the Peach Blossom Convention, and attaining Sainthood, is merely the first matter..." From her high seat, her voice was clear and resonant, echoing through the mirrors encompassing heaven and earth, which were already projecting this Peach Blossom Convention across the Three Realms.

"In ancient times, Emperor Armin of the Underworld once made a grand vow: upon becoming a god, he would establish a realm called the Underworld, a resting place for all spirits, so that death would not be the final destination for all beings, and everyone could live a second life."

The Empress Dowager of the Earth spoke eloquently.

Everyone around was startled. Could it be that the Empress Dowager of the Earth also intended to open another realm for the Three Realms?

Meng Mei quietly watched those below, her expression becoming utterly calm.

The image of the Creator God she had just seen, and her mother's recent daily nagging, flashed through her mind, and her gaze became completely resolute.

She smiled slightly, full of confidence, embodying the peerless demeanor of a matriarch ruling the world.

"Today, as I become a deity, I shall also establish a realm! This realm will complete the rules of the Three Realms and perfect the cosmic order. This realm shall be called the Void Realm... also known as Gui Xu (the Abyss of Return)!"

*Boom!*

The moment the words "Gui Xu" were uttered, a peal of thunder ripped across heaven and earth, as if by predetermined fate, and the world trembled.
