Qiu Tu reveals that he promised the North God King a chance at resurrection if his Divine King True Body perished. Man Huang's suspicions grow as she realizes the North God King likely joined Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji. Meanwhile, Qiu Tu learns Tian Qi has vanished and suspects a connection to the West God King. Tian Qi confronts a statue of the West God King, revealing the King's treacherous plan to seize his body and use him as a pawn.

Just as Tian Qi's words concluded, an abrupt stillness seemed to descend upon the very fabric of space and time.

In the very next instant, the world transformed, taking on an air of profound celebration.

Across the vast expanse of the Boundless Heart Sea, all deities holding a rank of Sixth or higher received urgent communiques directly from the World Origin.

"The Heavenly God Trial has concluded. The final tally of victors in this Heavenly God Trial... is six."

'Perhaps Bai Yi will end up usurping my position as a Heavenly God.'

Who could have possibly foreseen that a flippant utterance would manifest into such a concrete reality!

Meanwhile, the Divine King statue standing before him, after a few moments of stunned silence, erupted in a fury, bellowing, "Fool! I told you, you utter fool!"

Clearly, despite his harsh reprimand of Tian Qi, the West God King had not anticipated such an abundance of opportunities in the Heavenly God Trial this cycle.

And more critically... how could it be that all six of these coveted positions seemed to align with Qiu Tu's faction?

Could it truly be that Qiu Tu's influence would now be bolstered by six newly appointed Heavenly Gods?

...

Elsewhere.

In the Northwestern Region, within the bustling Eastern City.

Qiu Tu's gaze was fixed upon the vibrant, multicolored Heavenly God Positional Frame before him, his eyes blazing with triumphant ambition....
