Tianzi City.
Within King Zhou’s Imperial Alchemist Xu Fu’s secret room.
Kitazawa Hinata sat in front of Xu Fu and said very respectfully, “Ancestor, I have already attained Second Stage Inheritor. You said that as soon as I have attained the Second Stage, you will arrange something for me to do. What is it?”
“I want you to become the controller of the entire Divines and lead the other Divine Inheritors. Can you do that?” Xu Fu said as he stroked his beard.
Kitazawa Hinata said as he shook his head, “Impossible. Not even counting Johns, I could not even defeat the current Divine Inheritor from the Huaxia Server, Xuanyuan Qi. How am I supposed to compete to become the controller of the Divines?”
“Take this pill, and no one will be your match!”
“The Sacred-Six Pill!”
“Correct. It is indeed the Sacred-Six Pill.”
“Ancestor, did you not say that the Sacred-Six Pill requires the soul of a Great Sage? King Zhou went to get the Ox King’s soul but failed in the end. Where did you get it?”
“The Sacred-Six Pill does need the soul of a Great Sage to be able to unlock its full potency, but it can be created by using the soul of a Lesser Sacred Master. However, it would have reduced effectiveness. But this Sacred-Six Pill would allow your power to increase one to twofold. At that time, none of the other Inheritors of the Divine would be able to defeat you.”
“Thank you, Ancestor. I will do my best to take the throne of the Divines’ Godking!”

A mountain peak near the Royal Qin City.
Qiu Si, who successfully transferred his status as Huaxia Server’s Inheritor of the Divine, bit on a blade of grass as he lay on a tree next to the mountain peak’s cliff, and looked at the stars in the night sky.
He no longer had any pressure. He was relaxed, and finally found the joy in playing the game once again.
“A game does not need to spill blood to be fun. Playing it in a plain, peaceful way has its own merit!”
Qiu Si bit on the blade of grass in his mouth as he let out a faint smile.

After three days, most players had completed their Sacred Quest and become a Saint, and most of the Inheritors had reached their second stage.
Jiang Feng had stayed with the Vermillion Bird tribe for three days.
In those three days, he did not log out at all. He had been there trying to comprehend his Sacred Domain.
Boom!
On this day, the ocean of fire within the Vermillion Bird’s territory began to stir. A giant whirlpool appeared in the middle.
And at the tail of the whirlpool was the lake of fire that Jiang Feng was in
At this time, all the liquid flame within the lake of fire had all disappeared. Only a naked Jiang Feng was left there as he sat with his legs crossed.
No one knew whether it was because of being singed by the fire, Jiang Feng’s monkey fur was all gone. Even his skin under the monkey fur had all been burnt black. It was a pitiful sight.
“Roar!”
At this time, Jiang Feng suddenly roared out toward the sky with his eyes closed, and his body jumped out from the lake of fire.
Crack…
As he was on his way flying upward, his black skin began to crack open and the first layer started falling off.
After the black skin had fallen, sparse golden fur began to reveal itself, and he slowly returned to normal.
But what astonished him was that after his change of skin, he could see a Vermillion Bird swimming within his Meridians. It was quite amazing.
“Golden Fire Sacred Domain!”
Whoosh!
As he flew up on top of the ocean of fire, he then summoned his Golden Fire Sacred Domain.
In the next moment, a golden fire appeared around him, and the golden flames encompassed a radius of 50 meters.
Jiang Feng waved, and five Vermillion Bird Phantoms appeared within the Golden Fire Sacred Domain, and they kept on flying within the Sacred Domain.
He then pointed at someplace far away with his finger. The five Vermillion Bird Phantoms screeched and rushed into the ocean of fire in front of them.
Boom…
Next, there was a violent explosion and the entire ocean of fire began to roll violently because of the explosions. The scene was quite majestic.
“I feel that this Golden Fire Sacred Domain is even more powerful than when I am using the Two Becomes One skill. I wonder if I use Two Becomes One now, what would the Sacred Domain be like?” Jiang Feng said excitedly as he looked at the rolling ocean of fire.
Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations on conceiving your own Golden Fire Sacred Domain. The system shall make a world announcement about it. Will you hide your name?”
“No!”
Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations to the Shifter Emperor for conceiving the “Golden Fire Sacred Domain.” As he is the first player to conceive a Sacred Domain, he is awarded 10,000 Reputation points, 3 Resource Bags, and one Sacred Artifact. All players should continue to do your best!
The moment that the world announcement was made, it caused an uproar.
***
When Kitazawa Hinata heard the world announcement, he was sitting opposite Xu Fu, his body trembled as he said with surprise, “Impossible! How could the Shifter Emperor conceive a Sacred Domain?”
There were already very few players that had even had their own Normal Domains. But Jiang Feng had managed to conceive a Sacred Domain. He could not accept it.
Originally, he thought that by obtaining the Sacred-Six Pill, he could finally overpower all the players. But when he heard the world announcement, he realized that there seemed to always be a mountain right in front of him that he could not cross.

A mountain peak nearby the Royal Qin City.
Qiu Si, who was looking at the stars in the night sky in a relaxed manner, was also stunned when he heard the world announcement.
He then smiled and said, “As expected of the Shifter Emperor. He has always walked in front of all the players. It seems that there is going to be a good show happening at the Great Divine-Infernal War later. Luckily, I managed to withdraw myself from this, or I would be dragged into the troubles again.”
After going through so many large-scale battles in the Divine Dominion, Qiu Si felt very tired. He did not want to be like his cousin Baili Shenye in the end where he would be blinded by power and vengeance, to the point where he lost his mind and fell from grace.

Jiang Feng conceiving a Sacred Domain had once again caused him to become one of the hottest posts on the official message board.
All the players were discussing it.
“The Shifter Emperor is just too good. I heard that having one Sacred Domain is equal to having several Sacred Skills. It is very powerful!”
“Damn it. I really shouldn’t compare myself to him. I added all my free attribute points to Insight* and spent almost one whole month and I only managed to conceive a Normal Domain. And here the Shifter Emperor has already conceived a Sacred Domain!”
T/L Note: I, uh, thought that this is unique to Jiang Feng as Insight is a hidden stat?
“The one above me, please teach me how to conceive a domain!”
***
Just as everyone else was discussing him, Jiang Feng, who was still within the Vermillion Bird Tribe, took out the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire. He was going to fuse it into the Golden Fire Sacred Domain.
After conceiving the Golden Fire Sacred Domain, he could somewhat resist the frigidity from the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire.
“I would ask all of you to aid me later!”
Jiang Feng stared at the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire, took a deep breath, and then swallowed the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire without hesitation after asking for assistance from the tribesmen of the Vermillion Bird tribe.
“Ah… Crack…”
As soon as he had swallowed the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire, he let out a painful cry. But before he could even finish screaming, the heavy layer of ice began to spread through him. After a short while, it completely froze him in a block of ice.
“All my tribesmen, heed my call! Aid the Shifter Emperor to fuse with the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire!”
At the Vermillion Bird Patriarch’s commands, the 38 Vermillion bird tribesmen shot out jets of flames from their mouth, and help Jiang Feng melt the ice around him.
As soon as the layer of ice was melted, Jiang Feng quickly sat down cross-legged.
Crack.
The moment he sat down, his body was once again encased in ice.
