“Hum!”
As the ‘god’ character from the token was branded onto Du Gang’s divine being, he suddenly felt a sense of heart palpitations.
At the same time, this god did not know that after the ‘god’ character was branded on him, his other two gods, residing in the abyss and the cosmos, also gained a ‘god’ character in an instant.
“What’s going on?”
Residing in the abyss and indulging in the essence, Du Gang was taken aback when an enormous brand suddenly materialized in his divine beings.
This brand gave him a superior feeling, one which he could not ignore.
“What is this?!”
His divine being flew out, foolishly scrutinizing the ‘god’ character on his divine body, falling into confusion.
Not only him, but the Du Gang in the cosmos was also left clueless.
“Anyway, I’ll find out what the third divine being did when the agreed time arrives…”
All he could think of was something the third divine being had done.
Because divine beings one and two were fixed at specific locations, they did not move, while the third one was roaming.
As the ‘god’ character was branded on Du Gang, he felt a certain profound control over the token in his hand.
“Is this a teleportation token?!”
Du Gang had a vague feeling that he could use this token to teleport to a strange place whenever he wanted.
“Should I use it?”
He now regretted it slightly, for this ‘god’ character seemed to have grown on his divine being as though it was a part of him, and it could not be removed!
Just as he entertained the thought of not using the teleportation, a sense of trepidation emerged from the depths of his soul as though he were an ant and someone intended to crush him with their fingertip at any moment.
It looks like it has to be used!
“Whew~!”
Du Gang exhaled deeply, realizing that he really had no say at this moment!
“If that’s the case, let’s use it!”

Pondering over it, Du Gang steeled his heart and activated the token.
“Whirl, whirl!!”
As the token was activated, a five-pointed star teleportation array suddenly appeared beneath his feet. Instantly, a teleportation force manifested and enveloped Du Gang, vanishing into thin air in a blink of an eye.
……
“Welcome to the Heavenly Court, novice god Du Gang!”
Heavenly Court?
Du Gang was taken aback, and immediately took in his surroundings.
Currently, he was in a space shrouded in fog. Everywhere he looked was exactly the same, and he couldn’t see the ends.
However, this fog, as it appeared before his eyes, was such that he could see nearby objects clearly, while distant objects became blurrier, with vision gradually diminishing from near to far.
At this moment, there was nothing around him, neither people nor things, only him.
“Was that voice…from the token?”
Reflecting on the previous welcoming remark, he realized that was not the case.
“No, it sounded like it was from above…”
With that thought, he abruptly looked up.
In the sky above, a white light orb hung high much like the sun, emitting a gentle light that didn’t hurt his eyes, allowing him to see its state clearly.
“Did the voice come from that?”
Du Gang looked at the light orb, estimating its distance to be well over one hundred eighty thousand miles. At least with his current state, he was unable to get close to it.
“And also, ‘Heavenly Court,’ what does it mean?”
He was intrigued, was the place he had arrived not the Lost Ancient Town?
As if having heard his thoughts, the towering light orb once again transmitted a voice.
This time, Du Gang listened carefully, noting that the voice did not echo in the space but instead materialized in his mind directly through a method he simply couldn’t comprehend.
If he were not sensitive to the voices in his mind, he wouldn’t be able to detect the difference.
His consciousness wavered slightly but did not dwell long, however, the content of the voice from the light orb deeply shocked him.
“Heavenly Court, the highest governing power across all heavens and worlds!”
Govering all worlds, the highest power!
Du Gang was struck by this statement, “Is this real or fake?”
Governing all worlds, including the Primordial Continent?
He couldn’t imagine the immeasurable power a single force that truly ruled all worlds would wield.
The top hundred divine races, the top thousand royal clans, the forty-five great forces, all in the grasp of the Heavenly Court?
He shook his head, “Impossible, if this were true, there’s no way it wouldn’t have made the news…”
At this moment, the light orb explained further.
“Heavenly Court has temporarily perished, we need your help to rebuild…”
“To reestablish authority over all worlds… you will be honored as a meritorious official!”
“Huh?!!”
Du Gang was dumbfounded!
Why did he feel like he had joined some weird organization?
After a lengthy explanation by the light orb, he roughly understood the situation of the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court indeed once ruled over all the worlds, but later fell and lost its power.
Now, someone unknown took action to rebuild the rudimentary framework of the Heavenly Court, creating such a space, using the Lost Town as cover, quietly recruiting people for the revival of the Heavenly Court.
“Reviving the Heavenly Court…”
Du Gang’s lips twitched a bit, “Rely on who? Rely on me to single-handedly revive the Heavenly Court?”
He was somewhat dazed, if it was just him along with this spirit-like creature, then wasn’t this a joke?
However, this time, the light orb didn’t explain much, it issued a different message instead.
“Du Gang, God of the Heavenly Court, will enter the small world to execute the mission in one hour…”
“You will experience countless small worlds, complete tasks, accumulate merit…”
“Merit can be exchanged for anything you can think of, and also to improve your cultivation…”
“After each mission in the small world ends, you will have a rest period ranging from one month to half a year, waiting for the next mission to start…”
Going to the small world to execute the mission?
Infinite worlds?
Du Gang was startled, recalling the plots of novels on Earth.
“There is a possibility. According to the principle of all heavens mirroring each other, a pattern like the infinite worlds should exist!”
For a moment, he thought of many things, with a myriad of ideas springing up.
However, he forcefully suppressed all the thoughts.
“Phew!!”
Du Gang took a deep breath and began to sort out his thoughts as he had before.
“First, I must ascertain a pivotal question – whether I can separate myself from this apparent Heavenly Court?”
His demeanor becomes a bit solemn. This Heavenly Court, anyone else could overlook it. But he, having read countless limit-breaking novels, suspected that this Heavenly Court could actually function.
Du Gang quickly immersed his mind into the badge, attempting to locate the transmission power within it.
But, unfortunately, he found nothing.
“This Heavenly Court, should be controlled by the ‘god’ character previously imprinted on me…”
He made some initial tests and found that the moment he tried to deal with the ‘god’ character imprinted on him, he felt like he was self-destructing.
“It appears that, for now, I won’t be able to remove this ‘god’ character…”
Although he had prefigured it, he ran some verification tests before finally confirming that he was indeed bound to the Heavenly Court.
Having confirmed that essential condition, he asked his second question.
“What does the Small World look like?”
“A Small World is a natural evolution of the inner worlds left behind by the fallen Gods, True Gods, Celestial Gods, God Kings, Sages, and Supremes…”
“Each Small World’s ranking is determined by the cultivation of its creator when they were alive. It’s divided into six ranks…”
“Each rank can accommodate the entry and exit of gods from the rank below…”
This suggests that he couldn’t enter worlds formed after the death of a God at the Spirit level. He could only enter Small Worlds formed after the death of beings at True God level or above.
Indeed, the luminous orb responded, to the type of question it could answer.
Before Du Gang asked the question, he had been tentatively considering an idea.
He wanted to test whether this Light Computer was a ‘person’ or an intelligence.
From what he’s seen now, it appears to be more like an artificial intelligence program.
Could it be linked to the artificial intelligence that was recently released in collaboration with Tianji Pavilion and the Ancient City?
He didn’t know. All these things were too advanced for his current understanding.
Once it was clear that the Small World evolved naturally after the internal worlds of powerful beings were left masterless upon their death, Du Gang posed his next question.
“What can I exchange for with merit?”
With that question asked, a holographic screen similar to those he’d used with the Light Computer appeared before him, filled with strings of information.
“The ‘Nine Secrets’ – exchange price: 800,000 merit points!”
“Nine Secrets!!!”
Du Gang’s eyes widened in shock, disbeliefcoloring his expression.
These were the Nine Secrets!
Mythical arts rumored to be more potent than the Supreme Techniques, each one with enormous capabilities.
He had only attained one of the Nine Secrets, the Jie-Character Secret, which had been of immense help to him. And now, here they were, effortlessly laid out for exchange?!
Apart from everything else, just this information alone was enough to leave him dumbstruck and astounded.
Quickly, he noticed a line of text beneath the ‘Nine Secrets’.
“Lacking the ‘Counting’ Secret!”
Upon seeing this, Du Gang’s eyes lit up.
Such direct disclosure of a missing piece in this manner? Didn’t it imply that all the other listed items were available?
He quickly looked at the Jie-Character Secret among the Nine Secrets.
“Jie-Character Secret, one of the Nine Secrets. When mastered to a minor degree, it can trigger a ten-fold increase in combat power… Exchange price: 100,000 merit points!”
“One of the Nine Secrets, 100,000 merit points. No wonder the present Nine Secrets are priced at 800,000, it’s because they lack the ‘Counting’ Secret!”
“Impressive…”
Du Gang marvelled for a moment, before continuing his browsing.
Everything on the first page was renowned techniques. Each one either a Supreme Technique or some kind of secret mystery.
Such as the ‘Void Handprint’, ‘Divine Dragon Manifesting’, ‘Five Peaks Moving Mountain Technique’, ‘Human King Seal’, ‘Claw Rips the Sky’ and so on. He recognised virtually all of the Supreme Techniques within the Ancient City, and they were all present.
As for the Supreme Techniques he didn’t recognise, they were too numerous to count. ‘Supreme Swordsmanship’, ‘Emperor’s Book of Magic’, and others. Even if he’d never heard of them, they looked impressive. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
He took a close look at these techniques and found that most of them included the right to exchange the complete set, which meant the Heavenly Court had all these techniques!
But some were only partially available, with the required merit points correspondingly reduced.
What he didn’t expect was that he found ‘World Creation’, a Supreme Technique created by Pangu himself.
‘World Creation’ complete set, exchange price: 50,000 merit points.
“50,000 merit points?!”
Du Gang was a bit disappointed, he hadn’t expected ‘World Creation’ to be worth only 50,000 merit points, not even equivalent to one of the Nine Secrets.
Keep in mind, one of the Nine Secrets alone required 100,000 merit points.
“But, I suppose it makes sense. A Supreme Technique like ‘World Creation’, no matter how supreme, was not created by the strongest of Supremes…”
He recalled that when he got the Jie-Character Secret, the deceitful Daoist had said that these Nine Secrets were the secret arts created by the nine strongest Supremes.
With this in mind, Du Gang quickly checked the prices of other Supreme Level Techniques.
The result was as he expected, the other prices generally ranged from 10,000 to 50,000 merit points.
Some were even less than his World Creation.
Besides this, he flipped through the exchange booklet, realizing that it basically contained techniques of Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow classifications. Moreover, it also contained various secret arts, secret techniques, array techniques, pill techniques, and more. Everything one could imagine.
However, the most peculiar ones in the exchange booklet were the contents listed at the beginning.
“Gods of the Heavenly Court at the Spirit level, can spend one merit point to advance one level of cultivation!”
“This…”
Du Gang was dumbstruck, looking at this line of text in astonishment.
He didn’t expect that a direct exchange of cultivation level could be made with merit!
Did this not mean that as long as he had merit during his Spirit-level stage, he could continually progress?
Not only that, but according to this exchange booklet, other levels could also use merit to increase their cultivation. The only difference was the amount of merit required.
“Hold on!”
Du Gang suddenly realized, what was written above stated that one merit point would increase one level of Spirit-level cultivation!
This was Spirit-level cultivation! Did that not mean merit was incredibly hard to obtain?
The luminous orb once again sensed his thoughts and provided an explanation.
“Upon completion of a mission world at the Spirit level, you may theoretically receive a maximum of one merit point!”
“Note: When merit is less than one point, it will be automatically converted into achievements!”
“The conversion ratio of merit to achievement is ten thousand to one!”
Du Gang nodded, “That makes sense, ten thousand achievement points are equivalent to one merit point!”
However, the merit described by the luminous orb was even more miraculous than the merit he knew about. Given his present Spirit-level cultivation, he could theoretically obtain a maximum of one merit point in a Small World mission?
He didn’t fully understand what ‘the maximum theoretical obtainment’ meant.
Could it be that he couldn’t get any more than this? Or were there other restrictions?!
Just at this moment, the luminous orb once again echoed out a mechanical voice.
“[You will be teleported to the second-ranked Small World in three minutes. Please get ready…]”
“[The specific mission will be activated after reaching the target Small World…]”
This time, hearing such a phrase, Du Gang was not panicked. On the contrary, he felt an eagerness to try.
Merit can improve cultivation, how thrilling!
