Hearing Wei Chen's words, the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming was momentarily stunned. This was quite ambitious, wasn't it?
The Privy Hall could only be considered average among the Four Major Forces, but the army under the Privy Hall was nearly on par with Duke Sui's Residence and the Yang Family. Did Wei Chen really have such grand aspirations?
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming squinted slightly, looking intently at Wei Chen, and asked, "Brother Wei Chen, do you really want to control the army? From my perspective, you don't seem like someone who would enjoy dealing with such troublesome matters."
"I won't be in charge of it, but the people I brought from the Ancient World need to gain legitimate status within the Southern Ming Divine Domain. I also require some recognition," Wei Chen paused, a calm smile appearing on his face as he looked at the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming and continued, "Do you understand what I mean?"
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming nodded slightly and said, "Alright, I agree to your request. As long as you can eliminate the Privy Hall, you can organize a new Privy Hall. The Divine Kings you brought from the Ancient World can also hold positions within it."
"Do you know who I brought with me?" Wei Chen asked softly, a satisfied smile on his face.
He had merely asked casually, but to his surprise, the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming could list off everyone he had brought.
"The Donghua Sword Immortal, Shaohuang God King, Taihao God King, Sui Huang, Great Merchant God King, Agricultural Sovereign, Zhuanxu," the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming replied with a proud smile.
Indeed, he knew everything!
Wei Chen thought to himself, feeling an ominous premonition rise within him. The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming seemed to know far too much.
In fact, Wei Chen did not like the feeling of being so thoroughly understood.
After pondering for a moment, he stood up and walked around in front of the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming. Finally, he fixed his gaze on him and said, "How do you know so much?"
"Hehe, Brother Wei Chen, you all entered my Southern Ming Divine Domain from the Endless Divine Realm. In my domain, can any minor disturbance truly evade my detection? If I couldn't manage even that basic level of oversight, how could I claim to be this Supreme God?" The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming wore a look of pride; within the Southern Ming Divine Domain, he was the sole ruler—nothing could escape his notice.
It wasn't about strength; it was about absolute control over one's territory. Ultimately, it all stemmed from the power granted by the Divine King Token.
Wei Chen was puzzled. "Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, is your Mental Strength capable of encompassing the entire Southern Ming Divine Domain?"
"It's not that strong," he replied. "But since the Southern Ming Divine Domain is my territory, I naturally should possess some basic level of control here. If I couldn't even manage that much, how could I call myself a Supreme God?"
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming paused for a moment and sighed. "A so-called Supreme God is truly a master of life and death within their own domain! Those who wish to overthrow my rule should consider how impossible that is. My authority is not so easily toppled."
"Within the confines of the Southern Ming Divine Domain, I wield the Divine King Token. At critical moments, I can mobilize all energy within this domain for my use through it. No matter who they are, they cannot compete against me in front of the Divine King Token. There have been some foolish individuals who attempted to challenge my position without recognizing the existence of the Divine King Token. Even if they temporarily gained power through secret methods to resist me, they still couldn't stand against it. Once the Divine King Token is activated, mountains and rivers will change color; I am the sole ruler here—no one can gain an advantage over me."
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming wore a proud expression. Indeed, he had every reason to be proud; the Divine King Token was his greatest asset. With the Divine King Token in his possession, there was no possibility for anyone to become the new Supreme God. The only way to seize that opportunity would have been to snatch the Divine King Token at the very beginning. Otherwise, it would be futile, and death would be the inevitable outcome.
Previously, Wei Chen had found it strange that the position of Supreme God had remained unchanged for so long. Now he understood completely: the Supreme God who possessed the Divine King Token was virtually unbeatable within his own Divine Realm.
Of course, if someone were strong enough, they could easily eliminate the Supreme God in an instant. For instance, within the Weicheng True God World, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three were exceptionally powerful; they could kill the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming in the blink of an eye. The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming was well aware of this, which is why he unreservedly shared the secret of the Divine King Token with Wei Chen. He knew that Wei Chen had no desire for the position of Supreme God; if Wei Chen wanted to become one, he could simply let those three elders take action, and everything would be straightforward.
Wei Chen looked at the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming and nodded slightly. "The Divine King Token was given to you by Bloodshed Shop, right?"
"Naturally," replied the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming without hesitation.
Wei Chen continued, "Then that explains it. Bloodshed Shop has no good intentions; I suspect they know your whereabouts quite well."
"Through the Divine King Token, Bloodshed Shop can indeed track our movements. But we are not fools; we keep the Divine King Token safely within Sea Palace. We wouldn't foolishly carry it around with us—that would be asking for trouble. Besides, it's actually for safety reasons; having the Divine King Token in Sea Palace is its safest option. Generally speaking, when a Supreme God goes out on patrol, they do not take the Divine King Token with them," explained the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming.
Wei Chen frowned and asked, "But what if you encounter an ambush while on patrol? Wouldn't it be unsafe without the Divine King Token?"
"Heh heh, Brother Wei Chen, you underestimate our capabilities too much. We always carry some teleportation scrolls with us; if we encounter danger, we can instantly return to Sea Palace without any pressure. To kill us and become the new Supreme God requires overwhelming strength—otherwise, all other methods will fail." A proud look appeared on the face of the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming. As a Supreme God, ensuring one's survival was paramount; they would never abandon their life-saving skills.
Listening to the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, Wei Chen gained a new understanding of the Supreme Gods within Endless Divine Realm. It was incredibly difficult to kill a Supreme God; over all these years, there had never been a case where a Supreme God was killed and a new one ascended to power. The abilities of these Supreme Gods were not something anyone could easily comprehend. No matter how meticulously one planned an ambush against a Supreme God, unexpected factors would always arise—factors that could prove fatal.
Not fatal to the Supreme Gods themselves but rather to their attackers.
After pondering for a moment, Wei Chen asked, "Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, what do you think about those people I brought from Ancient World Spatial Dimension System? How strong are they?"
"The Donghua Sword Immortal, Shaohuang God King, Taihao God King, Sui Huang, Great Merchant God King, Agricultural Sovereign, and Zhuanxu may initially struggle to adapt upon arriving in Endless Divine Realm, which might prevent them from showcasing their full strength and make them seem less formidable. However, since you all are intruders from Ancient World, your strength will gradually increase over time in Endless Divine Realm. By now, Donghua Sword Immortal and his companions have likely become rare powerhouses; they should be quite comparable to our people in Supreme God Realm," said the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming casually.
Wei Chen smiled and replied, "Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, you might be overestimating their combat abilities. The pressure in Endless Divine Realm is no joke; in my opinion, their current strength is probably only at Fourth-Level Divine Realm."
Wei Chen believed his assessment was quite realistic; however, to the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, it seemed overly modest.
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming smiled lightly and said, "Brother Wei Chen, why be so humble? We are all on the same front line here. The stronger Donghua Sword Immortal and his companions become will benefit not just you but also me greatly. I hope they can grow as powerful as possible because when we truly confront Bloodshed Shop in the future, they will serve as formidable support."
"That's certainly true," Wei Chen nodded with a smile. The flattery from the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming made him feel quite pleased. In positions like Wei Chen's, flattery usually didn't work well; however, since the Supreme Deity was praising his companions—Donghua Sword Immortal and others whom Wei Chen had brought from Ancient World Spatial Dimension System—he naturally felt happy about it as their strength increased.
Wei Chen felt a twinge of uncertainty deep within him. The current strength of the seven—Donghua Sword Immortal, Shaohuang God King, Taihao God King, Sui Huang, Great Merchant God King, Agricultural Sovereign, and Zhuanxu—was a mystery to him. During this time, he had been unable to contact any of them and could only wait for their appearance to negotiate the matters ahead.
His conversation with the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming had lifted his spirits considerably. At the very least, the Supreme Deity was aware of Wei Chen's background and also knew about the seven's secrets. In the entire Endless Divine Realm, it seemed that only the Supreme Deity possessed such knowledge.
The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming could be considered a friend rather than an enemy, which meant that Wei Chen and the others were relatively safe.
“Supreme Deity of Southern Ming, it’s settled then. After we eliminate Privy Hall, my forces will take over completely. In name, we will be your subordinate faction; in reality, we will operate freely without much interference from you, right?” Wei Chen said with a grin as he looked at the Supreme Deity.
Given Wei Chen's stance, what could the Supreme Deity do?
He shrugged slightly and replied, “Do as you wish. I don’t care about the army at Privy Hall; just don’t make a mess of Southern Ming Divine Domain.”
“By the way, Brother Wei Chen, I haven’t asked you yet—do you have a plan for eliminating Privy Hall?”
The implication in the Supreme Deity's words was clear: you lack the ability to take down Privy Hall on your own!
A cold expression crossed Wei Chen's face as he responded, “Everyone who came from Privy Hall to Eastern Forest must die here! I never initiate conflict with others, but if they want to kill me, that is something I cannot tolerate.”
“How do you plan to do that?” The Supreme Deity looked at Wei Chen with curiosity.
Wei Chen replied calmly, “A supreme killing formation will suffice.”
