Above the Divine Realm's core, a brilliant light shone. The once distant Divine Star was now gradually becoming a reality.
Following the retreat of the Cosmic Law, an unprecedented vitality and power surged within the Divine Realm. The purest energy in the entire universe was converging here.
"A warp for the heavens, a weft for the earth!"
Lin Feng stood tall in the void, his eyes like torches. He pointed a single finger to the sky, and a majestic chaotic power surged from his fingertip, transforming into countless splendid threads that intertwined and covered the entire sky and land of the Divine Realm.
These threads were the "Heavenly Warp and Earthly Weft" network constructed by Lin Feng with Chaos Power. They were like the longitude and latitude lines of a planet, tightly connecting every corner of the Divine Realm, constructing an indestructible and eternally stable framework.
This framework was the final and most crucial step in the Divine Realm's transformation from a plane into a Divine Star.
As the "Heavenly Warp and Earthly Weft" network gradually took shape, the spatial structure of the Divine Realm began to undergo subtle and profound changes.
The newborn, originally ethereal spaces and substances became solid and stable, endowed with a tangible quality.
Between heaven and earth, vast and boundless powers flowed between the lines of warp and weft. They were either scorching like fire, gentle like water, sharp as metal, heavy as earth, or vigorous as wood.
Nourished by the "Heavenly Warp and Earthly Weft" network, they spread rapidly, covering every inch of the Divine Realm's land.
With the continuous infusion and fusion of this power, the Divine Realm began to display an unprecedentedly glorious scene.
The immortal spiritual energy became purer, spreading through the Divine Realm like a thin mist. If such a dense concentration of the world's origin energy were to be brought to the Douluo Star, an ordinary person would probably get drunk and collapse in this ocean of spiritual energy just by taking a single breath.
Even eating too much rice can give you a carb-coma.
Even some of the gods currently residing in the Divine Realm felt an unprecedented shock and awe in the face of this extremely pure immortal spiritual energy.
Although they lived in the Divine Realm and usually absorbed a lot of immortal spiritual energy, such a dense and pure concentration still made their hearts and souls tremble, as if their very souls were being cleansed by this power, becoming clearer and more transparent.
The growth rate of their divine power was even more like a surging tide, allowing every god to feel an unprecedented increase in strength.
They closed their eyes and took a deep breath, only feeling that this pure immortal spiritual energy was like sweet dew, nourishing their divine bodies, making their divine power more condensed and purer.
In the deep cosmos, the original plane of the Divine Realm was finally completely reshaped by this majestic power, transforming into a brand new Divine Star. The former boundaries and constraints vanished without a trace under the cleansing of this power, replaced by an endless starry sky and infinite possibilities.
The living beings of the Divine Star, whether they were gods or other creatures, all achieved unprecedented growth under the baptism of this power.
Even the group in the God-King realm felt their own limits being broken through in this unprecedented transformation, their understanding of the Cosmic Law deepening by another level.
Rumble—
A deafening thunderclap exploded in the sky above the Divine Realm. This was not ordinary thunder, but an echo from the depths of the universe, as if the entire universe was cheering for the transformation of the Divine Realm.
Following this thunderclap, a huge crack opened in the sky of the Divine Realm. Brilliant starlight mixed with Chaos Power poured down like a waterfall, showering the entire Divine Realm.
This was no ordinary celestial phenomenon, but a clear sign that the Divine Star had truly transcended the eternal cycle of this universe.
The pouring starlight and Chaos Power contained the deepest and most essential secrets and laws of the universe—a feedback from the world itself.
At this moment, the Divine Star was immense, like a brilliant pearl inlaid in the vast universe.
Its size was so enormous that it could make any star pale in comparison. Even the sun, in front of the Divine Star at this moment, was like a candlelight to the bright moon, appearing small and weak.
Its radiance was so dazzling that it could illuminate the dark corners of the entire universe.
In the sky of every subordinate plane and continent, a new star appeared simultaneously. Even during the day, it was as dazzling as the scorching sun, its existence impossible to ignore.
That was the reflection of the Divine Star in the distant sky, like a guardian god, quietly looking down on all the worlds.
The Dead Star, the resource star, the Bashu Plane.
The Douluo Star, the Five Elements Continent, the Yangguang Continent, the Haomiao Continent, and other planes subordinate to the Divine Realm all received feedback when the Divine Star came into being.
A dense concentration of the world's origin energy surged out from the core of the Divine Star like a tide, following the mysterious and subtle connection, and was continuously infused into every subordinate plane.
On the Douluo Star, the origin energy of heaven and earth became unprecedentedly dense. The cultivation speed of soul masters suddenly accelerated. Many cultivation barriers that were originally difficult to cross became fragile under the push of this power and were broken through one after another. Throughout the planet, soul power fluctuations rose and fell, a scene of thriving prosperity.

Star Dou Great Forest.
Lin Xuan, carrying a divine knife that shimmered with an exquisite light on her back, was taking small steps, weaving through the dense forest of the Star Dou Great Forest. Her big, curious eyes looked around, as if searching for something.
"Didn't Daddy say there's a black-robed monster here? Where is it?" Lin Xuan pouted, a look of disappointment on her delicate little face, feeling a little dissatisfied in her heart.
She had been full of anticipation to meet the legendary black-robed monster and then show off her skills with her divine knife, but after walking for so long, she hadn't even seen a shadow of the black-robed monster.
The hidden Di Tian: Mistress Bibi Dong is really good at finding fun for her child. Is it because she thinks that since she has taken care of the Imperial Luck Beast before, she can rest assured leaving Lin Xuan for me to secretly protect?
Since when did I become your exclusive nanny? Every time Lin Xuan comes to the lower realm, I'm the one told to protect her in secret.
Also, what black-robed monster... He silently looked at the black robe on his body, expressionlessly took it off, and changed into an ordinary black combat suit.
This black-robed monster is definitely not me!
Di Tian grumbled to himself in his heart.
"Huh?"
"Hmm?"
Lin Xuan and Di Tian looked towards the sky in unison. At this moment, it was the time when the Divine Star was being formed.
In the distant sky, a dazzling star seemed to have a strange resonance with the Douluo Star. It shed splendid rays of light that penetrated the dense canopy of the Star Dou Great Forest and scattered on the clearings in the forest.
"Wow, what a beautiful star!" Lin Xuan's eyes sparkled with excitement. She was deeply attracted by this spectacular sight. She raised her head and clasped her hands together, as if making a wish to the star.
Di Tian's pupils contracted slightly. Feeling the suddenly dense spiritual energy between heaven and earth, he murmured, "As expected of the Revered One. That dream... has really come true."
"Phew—"
Lin Xuan wiped the non-existent sweat from her forehead. Seeing a lake in the distance with a relatively dense life force, an idea came to her. She decided to go to the lakeside to rest for a while and enjoy the rare beautiful scenery.
"U-la-la~~"
Humming an unknown melody, Lin Xuan skipped and hopped, making her way towards the lake with light steps.
Di Tian followed silently behind. His eyes shifted. There seems to be an unwelcome guest here? Should I kill it?
After thinking about Lin Xuan's current strength, even if some of her cultivation was sealed, she was still a Super Douluo at this moment, and...
Remembering that fellow's strongest killing move... Di Tian almost laughed out loud in his heart. He then decided not to act to drive away the uninvited guest.
"Eh?"
Walking out of the jungle and arriving at the shore of the lake, Lin Xuan's eyes widened. She rubbed her eyes, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing. By the lake, a huge black tiger was drinking the lake water.
Its entire body was pure black, without a single speck of other color. Its red eyes were filled with a sinister aura. Its body was a full eight meters long, and its muscles bulged. It probably weighed more than three thousand jin.
On its forehead was a black "King" character, but unlike the black of its fur, it was a gloomy black like fog.
What was even more peculiar was its tail. Compared to ordinary tiger-type soul beasts, its tail was much longer and was held upright. It was composed of countless bony segments, with a huge barb at the very tip.
A 60,000-year-old Dark Devilgod Tiger!
A former subordinate of the Evil God!
"So wishing to a star is this effective? A black-robed monster, hey!"
Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned to the Divine Star in the sky, made a wishing gesture, and silently prayed in her heart, "I hope those seven divine knives can all be Xuan'er's. Let Uncle Rong give them all to Xuan'er!!"
The Dark Devilgod Tiger had obviously also noticed Lin Xuan's appearance. A trace of vigilance flashed in its red eyes.
It slowly raised its head, and a low growl rumbled in its throat, warning this uninvited guest who had suddenly intruded into its territory.
However, Lin Xuan did not seem to feel this threat. Her attention was still completely focused on the brilliant Divine Star in the sky, her heart filled with infinite longing for the divine knives.
"Roar!!!"
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was slightly annoyed. It couldn't see through this child's cultivation, but it could feel the extraordinary aura on her. It let out another low roar, this time with a bit more majesty and impatience in its voice.
"What are you yelling for! Can't you see I'm making a wish? How rude!"
Lin Xuan turned her head to look at the Dark Devilgod Tiger with a pout. She put her small hands on her hips, looking like a little adult, not at all frightened by this huge and fierce soul beast in front of her. Her eyes were instead filled with dissatisfaction that the Dark Devilgod Tiger had disturbed her wish.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was stunned. A human child, so naive and innocent... could it be that it wasn't some reincarnated member of its own race, nor some human expert hiding their strength?
Was it a kid who had snuck out to play with a family treasure?
A fierce light flashed in its eyes, and its eyes locked onto the Profound Jade Knife on Lin Xuan's back.
This spatial-type divine artifact gave it an indescribable sense of pressure and attraction.
It itself possessed six attributes: evil, space, time, lightning, strength, and wind.
Its body's instinct was telling it that as long as it took this divine artifact, kept it with it, or even swallowed and refined it, its space attribute would be enhanced to an unprecedented degree. It might even be able to break through its current realm and reach a whole new level.
Greed suddenly arose in the Dark Devilgod Tiger's heart. Its red eyes flickered with a fiery light. Without any warning, it instantly flashed behind Lin Xuan and swiped at her with its paw. Its speed was like lightning streaking across the night sky, bringing with it a sharp gust of wind.
However, just at this critical moment, it was as if Lin Xuan had eyes on the back of her head. Her figure strangely shifted to the side, and she nimbly dodged the Dark Devilgod Tiger's sudden attack.
She still had that naive and innocent smile on her face, but a cunning light flashed in her eyes.
"Hmph, trying to sneak attack me? No way!" Lin Xuan pursed her lips, and her hands quickly formed seals. A faint spatial fluctuation rippled around her.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was a little stunned that its attack had missed.
Although it was only at a 60,000-year cultivation level, its combat power far exceeded some 100,000-year-old soul beasts. It could even slaughter an ordinary human Soul Douluo.
Even against a Titled Douluo, it was confident it could hold its own, and even if it couldn't win, escaping would be extremely easy.
But this little girl?
A trace of surprise and confusion flashed in its eyes.
"Hmph~ Five Elements Escape Art!" Lin Xuan hummed softly. With a flash, she disappeared from before the Dark Devilgod Tiger's eyes. As the Dark Devilgod Tiger was shocked and searching for her whereabouts,
"Here!"
A slash landed on the Dark Devilgod Tiger's back. Lin Xuan's figure suddenly appeared. She had used an escape art to teleport behind the Dark Devilgod Tiger. This sudden attack caught the Dark Devilgod Tiger off guard.
The Profound Jade Knife was extremely sharp. With this one slash, a deep gash immediately appeared on the Dark Devilgod Tiger's back. Blood gushed out like a spring, and the pain made it roar in anger.
"Roar!!"
"How rude. You deserve a beating." Lin Xuan stood behind the Dark Devilgod Tiger with the Profound Jade Knife on her back, her small face full of pride.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was furious. It had never been so seriously injured, let alone by a human child who looked so weak. It whipped around, opened its bloody maw, and bit at Lin Xuan.
"Whoa~"
Lin Xuan smiled and blinked, waving at the Dark Devilgod Tiger. Her figure disappeared again and appeared on its head. She directly kicked the Dark Devilgod Tiger several meters away.
"Roar!!!"
The Dark Devilgod Tiger slammed heavily on the ground, making a deafening roar. The surrounding trees trembled from the force.
"Hmph, hmph, who said escape arts are useless? I think they're great. In the future, no one will be able to touch me when I fight. And if I can't win, I can run away, hehe."
The Dark Devilgod Tiger struggled to its feet. The wounds on its body were excruciatingly painful, but what was greater was the humiliation and anger in its heart. It roared, its eyes scarlet.
With it as the center, a pitch-black domain suddenly unfolded, enveloping the surrounding space in a deep darkness.
"Oh?" A little surprise appeared on Lin Xuan's face. Her gaze shifted, and she actively chose to be drawn into this dark domain by the Dark Devilgod Tiger.
In the endless darkness, only a single arena was lit.
"Hey? I seem to have gotten a little shorter?" Lin Xuan tilted her head. "Hey, you've gotten smaller too?"
In front of her, a figure walked out of the darkness. The Dark Devilgod Tiger had become only about a meter tall, much, much smaller than before.
The incomparably ferocious giant tiger had turned into a big black cat?
The Dark Devilgod Tiger revealed a sinister smile, laughing wildly in its heart. I don't care what you are, whether you're reincarnated or some soul beast in human form. In here, you are in your childhood form!
So you're still a human. Then, you're dead! The childhood stage of a human is the weakest, wahahaha!
"Welcome to the Death-Duel Arena. The battle of life and death can only end when one side dies, and thus be freed from this space. Countdown, five, four, three, two, one, begin."
The Dark Devilgod Tiger roared and pounced directly at Lin Xuan. Its small figure carried a force that could not be ignored, and its sharp claws and fangs glinted coldly in the darkness.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan was not flustered at all. A mischievous smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She leaped lightly and kicked the Dark Devilgod Tiger directly on the head.
Bang!—
The Dark Devilgod Tiger exploded directly. Its eyes flashed with astonishment and extreme fear. Even in death, it could not understand why this human child, even in her childhood form, would have the power of a Peerless Douluo!
Is this reasonable?
Lin Xuan landed steadily on the ground, looked at the Dark Devilgod Tiger on the ground, which couldn't be more dead, and tilted her head. "Er... did I use too much force?"
The pitch-black domain instantly disappeared, and Lin Xuan's figure reappeared on the shore of the lake.
Lin Xuan clapped the dust off her hands, as if she had just done something insignificant.
"Emmm, this monster, why didn't it drop any loot?"
Lin Xuan looked at the empty surroundings and frowned. "Forget it, I'll go catch a fish by the lake first."
She had just taken a few steps when a bead suddenly appeared in the air where the tiger had been, shimmering with a deep and serene light.
Crack—
The bead struck the air, and a spatial rift instantly appeared. Then, the bead was about to drill into it.
"Hmm?"
The Profound Jade Knife behind Lin Xuan immediately reacted. It directly slashed and extinguished the spatial rift, then pinned the bead in mid-air. A force of space firmly bound it, preventing the bead from escaping.
"Whoa, Little Xuanji, you're amazing! Mwah~" Lin Xuan jumped up excitedly and gave the Profound Jade Knife a kiss, then collected the bead in the air.
The Profound Jade Knife seemed to return to her back with joy, and perhaps a little shyness. Rong Nianbing? What kind of master is that? From now on, my master is Lin Xuan~
