Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 869 Gao Tianyuan

The Eastern Small World has always served as the main body's experimental site. After so many years of renovation, it has changed drastically. Although it is called a small world, its quality is even higher than that of the Great World. Otherwise, how could it withstand the journey across the void and carry the traveler, Master Baoqing? You should know that even if this is only a part of him, it is not something that an ordinary world can withstand.

However, breaking through the Origin Wall is still quite difficult. This thing is a firewall at the level of the multiverse. People below the Golden Immortal level are not even qualified to touch it. Even Golden Immortals would find it difficult to destroy it without spiritual treasures. This shows how exquisite this wall is.

“No need for all that trouble, there’s an interface here.” Baoqing Fangzhu took a puff of his cigarette, and as he exhaled a puff of smoke, he turned his head 180 degrees, revealing a fox-like head with a rather eerie smile, pointing in front of him as he spoke.

Under the guidance of Master Baoqing, Yan Xu understood the wonder of this wall and the operating rules of the DC Universe.

The DC Universe is a draft left by God, containing God's insights and knowledge. Therefore, God has omniscient and omnipotent authority over this draft, as it is the result of God's step-by-step deduction and creation.

But this is not what God wanted, because all knowledge and abilities come from within this circle, and the so-called omniscience and omnipotence are limited to the DC universe.

The beings in the DC Universe all envy God's omniscience and omnipotence, yet they do not know what this means—that God's path in the DC Universe has come to an end.

So God left the DC Universe without hesitation, rather than choosing to stay and be an omniscient frog in a well.

However, the DC Universe was not completely abandoned. God left an opening in the Origin Wall, where any sufficiently powerful external force can find a place and participate in the operation of the DC Universe.

Simply put, God has created a high-quality business district, openly welcoming foreign investment and foreign companies to set up shop.

These forces will help make the DC Universe more complete, but they are incompatible and will continue to cause problems, something God has also considered.

The unique operating mechanism of the DC Universe will restart after problems accumulate to a certain extent, completely adding new power to the underlying code and upgrading the original system.

In other words, even though God has left, the DC universe is still constantly being upgraded and transformed.

All of this will become nourishment for God to go further, so God does not refuse new forces to join the DC Universe.

As for whether the DC Universe will be destroyed by external forces, no.

Leaving aside the Origin Wall and the many contingency plans left by God, the mere fact that God placed everything He had there is enough to make any being stop and learn properly.

When new forces join, they will not seek mere destruction, but rather self-perfection. The simplest way is to follow the path of God, the forerunner, because this is the simplest path to the strongest, yet ultimately leads to becoming a part of God.

Those who learn from me will live, those who imitate me will die—that's the principle at play.

Originally, the DC universe was simple: light and darkness, heaven and hell. Later, miracles and emotions were added, causing the DC universe to constantly evolve and become more complex and complete. So neither God nor the DC universe is as simple as it seems.

If it weren't for Baoqingfangzhu's guidance, Yan Xu would probably have needed a long time to comprehend the secrets.

Now that I understand, I can definitely learn from this and prepare for building my own multiverse in the future.

By inserting the small world of Japan into the interface, its power naturally permeates the DC universe and forms a projection in the realm of gods.

Coincidentally, the projection overlapped with the Japanese mythical realm.

This is not surprising. God needs diversity, but not repetitive burdens, so He places similar powers together. The rule is simple: whoever wins lives. Because the DC universe leans towards the West, Japan in this universe also tragically suffered the fate of the fat boy who broke his back. In addition, Heaven is dominant, and Western gods are numerous and powerful, resulting in the Japanese pantheon occupying only a small area even in the almost infinitely large divine realm.

Fortunately, both humans and gods in Japan are very good at creating a grand spectacle within a small space. They managed to create the three realms of heaven, earth, and humanity in such a small area.

Takamagahara, as the celestial realm, is located in the upper layer of the divine realm. It is closely connected with the human realm of Ashihara in the middle layer and the underworld of Yomi in the lower layer, giving the Japanese pantheon a solid foundation in the divine realm.

Although the place is small, the grandeur of the deity cannot be lost, and there is no better choice than a high-class banquet.

High above, the Takamagahara is shrouded in mist, forming a natural curtain adorned with glowing ame-no-ma-ka-go vines. In the banquet hall, the ground is covered with soft cushions woven from double-flowered cherry blossom petals, and vermilion ame-no-go-hashi stand around it. The pillars are wrapped with shimenawa, a sacred rope, and the paper pendants hanging from the knots sway gently in the wind, isolating the mundane air from the lower realm of Ashihara and demonstrating the insurmountable barrier between gods and humans.

The banquet featured a high platform where the main deity, Amaterasu, was seated. The other deities were arranged on either side according to their rank, from the three creator gods to the minor gods who governed plants and trees. Those who didn't attend were in for ten thousand years.

The deities participating in the banquet were more magnificent than usual, especially the three great gods.

Amaterasu's layers of divine robes are embroidered with sun patterns, and as the light flows, even the surrounding clouds are tinged with gold.

Tsukuyomi, standing to the side, wore a moon-white feather robe, the fabric as thin as a cicada's wing, so that as she walked, it seemed as if moonlight was filtering through the seams of her robe.

Although Susanoo was unruly by nature, he had changed into a black divine robe embroidered with lightning patterns. However, he still carried the Totsuka Sword, which he used to slay the Yamata no Orochi, at his waist. This was his achievement and pride.

The Inari God, who usually lives in seclusion in the mountains, came with his fox spirits. The spirits carried jade pots filled with divine wine and moved among the gods. When their tails swept across the ground, they caused strings of golden rice ears to sprout, adding a touch of color to the banquet.

Food has always been the core of a banquet, and the banquets of the Japanese pantheon are no exception. The main dish is divine rice cooked with heavenly ears of grain. The grains of rice are plump like pearls, and it is said that each grain contains the spiritual energy of Takamagahara. Eating it can nourish one's divinity.

To put it bluntly, it's still just rice. When the gods eat it, it has no different effect than when mortals eat rice balls.

Rice cooked by the Rice Immortal is still rice. If eating it makes you feel like you're floating on air, then you should call the police and get tested.

The dishes are rare delicacies from the Age of Gods, such as a live fish that is completely transparent and turns into a sweet spring when swallowed, and an emerald green herb that can dispel fatigue when chewed.

This dish is almost identical to the saury, miso soup, and rice balls that samurai eat, except that it's labeled with the word "god".

Fortunately, with the presence of three great gods, the banquet brought out some impressive items, such as the meat of the Yamata no Orochi, which had been preserved for who knows how many years, and the divine wine, the Heavenly Wine.

The Japanese gods, who were already used to this, couldn't help but praise the 'lavish feast' before starting their own rather stingy banquet.

To be honest, if these things were used to entertain other pantheons, a fight would break out immediately, because you can't insult a god like this.

Slurping a coin of sake and shoveling eight grains of rice, after three rounds of drinks, the originally solemn atmosphere gradually relaxed. Whether the gods of the East Sea were truly drunk or just using the smell of alcohol to justify their drunken antics, they all became unrestrained.

Susanoo slammed his fist on the table and sang the battle song he used to conquer Orochi. A bunch of minor gods who had heard it countless times didn't even need to think; their bodies just started moving on their own. Some clapped, some danced, and some praised him. It was truly a harmonious scene, so much so that Yan Xu couldn't bear to break it. On the contrary, Baoqing Fangzhu was eager to join in. I wonder if she had some grudge against the Japanese pantheon.
