Chapter 314 - Gods’ Meeting
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Six gods were seated on the thrones of the Divine Kingdom. Although there were more empty thrones, the atmosphere in the room felt busier than ever before.
The goddess of light Kelly, the goddess of sun Verthandi, the goddess of death Delmedi, the master of the night Louis Biketo, the goddess of harvest Bernice and the goddess of sea Gina sat in a circle and held the first meeting of the gods. This was the first meeting between the gods.
Apart from formalizing the first Agreement of Gods, which was made among the first group of gods, they would sign a renewed Agreement of Gods to restrain the competition for authority between gods and maintain the operation of the whole world at the same time.
“The first agreement states that the main bitwall could suppress level sevens, making it impossible for them to cross the bitwall at will. They could either come to the Divine Kingdom or the underworld. In addition, they could also enter the half bitwall or leave Maria’s World! Moreover, fighting in Maria’s world is prohibited for level sevens. Now, we need draw up the second agreement.” Kelly spoke first, setting the agenda for the meeting.
“The first matter regards the division of theocracy and territory. Needless to say, every god and divine personality present has its own theocracy and territory, but the power of every divine personality also has great expansion potential. For example, the divine personality of Louis can expand to the realm of dreams and illusions, while Bernice, the goddess of harvest can make efforts towards mastering the management of lives,” said Kelly.
Kelly, the goddess of light, was also the Divine Kingdom host. Although every god was equal in status, Kelly had the authority to restrict the other gods. So, at this time, the meeting of gods was being presided over by her and being held in the Kingdom of Light.
“The expansion of theocracy must be based on the premise of maintaining and stabilizing world order and stability. As such, every god is the spokesman and manager of the world order. Therefore, this is the rule that every god must abide by. As such, any claims over theocracy, except for preliminary theocracy, depend upon one’s own development and efforts.” Kelly wrote down the first one matter of business, concerning the expansion of the divine power and authority, as she spoke.
This particular matter was related to the perfection of the rules of the whole world, as well as the ultimate perfection of Maria’s World. This also happened to involve the most important step for Lu Zhiyu to reach level nine!
“I Agree!”
“I Agree!”
“I Agree!”
In every Divine Shadow above the thrones, a vague appearance of the gods could been seen. They all expressed their opinions.
The gods present all agreed to the agreement regarding their most basic authority. However, when it came to beliefs, the six gods had a fierce quarrel. Finally, they agreed that the gods could not directly intervene with human beings’ beliefs, which was then also written into the Agreement of the Gods.
In the Kingdom of Light, Louis also talked about wizards and alchemists. He believed that wizards and alchemists were the greatest sources of instability and danger in the world. Hence, he believed that they must be under the control of gods.
Kelly, the goddess of light, took a look at Louis as he was speaking. Although Louis was expressionless, she could see at a glance what he was thinking and feeling.
“Edward Kelermo, the legendary alchemist Marina Bossey, and Felix, the fox wizard and dean of Colossus College, have been identified as potential candidates for future gods. Wizards and alchemists should be subject to their internal sect’s constraints, not ours. This was clearly stated in the previously agreed upon terms,” said Kelly.
After this, the gods made the arrangements for the coming of the next era, the plan of world perfection, and the preparation of world upgrading. They then talked about Delmedi’s underworld.
After Cetisius became the deputy manager, the underworld underwent a series of reforms. However, unlike the Divine Kingdom, the underworld itself was the largest subordinate half bitwall that was attached to the main world. And, with the passage of time, it just kept expanding.
In regards to how big the realm of the underworld was, the goddess of death, Delmedi, was not clear. It was only when Cetisius recently started to manage the underworld that he realized how broad the underworld really was.
In addition to the gates of the underworld, the river basin, and the city of the soul, Chirom, which Delmedi managed, there were countless dead creatures in the vast realm of death, all of which had been enlarged by the force of death. Even many Ghost Wizards and demon warlocks were secretly summoning these dead creatures to send them to go and spy on the underworld.
They were trying to escape the reincarnation of life and death with the power of these creatures in the underworld. With such motives, the Ghost Wizards and the demon warlocks were extremely dangerous and might cause harm and trouble to the gods and the world.
After agreeing that all of the souls of the unbelievers should be managed by the underworld, Kelly urged Delmedi to pay closer attention to the management of the underworld to ensure that there would be no mistakes. Delmedi agreed, secretly planning to cheekily tell Cetisius of this matter by mimicking Kelly’s tone!
At the end of the first meeting of gods, the Agreement of the Gods was officially renewed. This agreement was written in the gods’ language via mind power and floated above the sky in the Kingdom of Light. It then revolved around the floating islands, where the thrones of the gods were located.
Then, all of the gods simultaneously made their own official marks on the agreement. At once, they saw the golden agreement spinning and shining fiercely. Then, the host of the Divine Kingdom officially recognized its validity.
At this time, not only did the extraordinary gods, but even the regular gods felt an inexplicable force of restraint come upon them. This was the power of the almighty rules!
The meeting of the gods and the perfection of the Agreement of the Gods had once again promoted the further development of the world. All of the loopholes and imperfections had now been repaired. For those with extraordinary powers, the era in which they could do whatever they wanted would never return.
Soon following this grand event, the gods gradually took control of Maria’s World. This was an era full of opportunities, but for the extraordinary, it was not the best era.
No matter how powerful, gifted, and ambitious they were, they were now limited. After all, the rules of the world and the gods now set constraints for everything in this world.

The floating city of Lu Zhiyu revolved around Maria’s World, which was not far away. On the central square of the floating city, there were two huge gates.
The huge gates were made of white metal and had dense, complicated geometric drawings on them. The center of the gates were illusory, yet they couldn’t been seen through. Instead, they looked like two huge swirling gray eddies.
Lu Zhiyu walked up the steps and went into one of the huge gates. Then, he stepped out of the other gate.
This was the space portal that Lu Zhiyu had designed after learning some spatial theories from Atlantis. Of course, his past experience with using the dimensional door also helped him in designing the gates.
Eva stood under the steps of the two giant space portals, stroking the neck of the Titan Dragon Adolphus and waiting for Lu Zhiyu to come down. She then called out, “Master, you succeeded!”
Eva was clearly happy for him. She had watched Lu Zhiyu make these two portals. To do so, Lu Zhiyu didn’t use the scroll, but had applied the principles of space.
Lu Zhiyu nodded to her and said with a smile, “Yes, it was successful!”
At this time, a wave of energy pulsed through Maria’s World. Although it was very slight, the Lu Zhiyu, as the master of the world, felt it immediately.
Lu Zhiyu’s mood seemed to become somewhat complicated at that moment. “The world is beginning to move towards perfection! Is the age of the gods coming? The kingdom of the gods...”
