In an extremely quiet...
...Secret Chamber where no one would disturb him.
Jin Mian sat cross-legged on a prayer mat.
In front of him, a milky-white ball of light floated.
The ball of light writhed.
Colors would occasionally drift across it, only to quickly vanish.
Gradually, as time passed...
...the ball of light turned multicolored, and the colors grew more numerous.
Jin Mian was like a painter, using his hand as a brush.
As if meticulously embellishing a painting.
Before long...
...the colors on the multicolored ball of light became even more abundant.
Every stroke of color emitted a brilliant radiance.
However, it was important to note that this was no mere spectacle.
It was an extremely dangerous situation.
Through his mental force...
...he carefully observed the changes within the ball of light.
He discovered...
...that whenever those two energies were about to clash...
...he would immediately intervene with his power...
...to stabilize them.
After eighty-one consecutive hours of adjustment...
...the multicolored ball of light finally stabilized.
With an explosion of snowy-white light particles...
...the originally multicolored ball of light actually shed all its colors.
It returned to its initial milky-white state.
"Phew—"
"It's finally finished."
"This thing really is quite difficult."
"Come."
Letting out a long breath, a look of joy appeared on Jin Mian's face.
He raised his hand and spread his palm.
The milky-white ball of light floating in the air slowly drifted down onto his palm.
He examined the ball of light closely.
Like an artist, he admired the work of art he had just polished.
This ball of light was just like the void space where he had previously encountered the plane fetus.
It exuded purity and essence.
It seemed like the origin and the ultimate end of all things.
"God of Destruction, according to the God Realm's definition, this thing in my hand should be a so-called God Position, right?" Jin Mian looked up at the purple phantom.
On the ceiling of the Secret Chamber...
...the God of Destruction, in phantom form, looked at the ball of light in Jin Mian's hand with a complex expression.
"How should I put it? According to the Law of Conservation of Energy..."
"Stop! Hold it right there! Just tell me directly, is this a God Position or not?"
Seeing that the God of Destruction was starting to talk nonsense...
...Jin Mian quickly raised his hand to interrupt him.
Good grief, he was even bringing up the Law of Conservation of Energy with him.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
Do you even know what it is?
And even if you did, could you even understand it?
After a long while...
The God of Destruction nodded.
"Although I'm loath to admit it, that ball of light in your hand is indeed a God Position."
"But your God Position doesn't seem to have a rank? Nor has it received the recognition of the God Realm. At best, it's just a Rogue God."
Hearing this, Jin Mian was displeased.
He rolled his eyes at the God of Destruction. "Narrow-minded. Your vision is too narrow."
"A god is a god. Why distinguish between official and rogue? They all exist to maintain world peace."
"As for the rank, this God Position of mine was just created."
"Of course it doesn't have a rank yet."
God Position ranks are divided into five major levels.
From lowest to highest...
...they are: the Third-Class God with five Divine Rings, the Second-Class God with five darker Divine Rings, the First-Class God with seven Divine Rings, and finally, the God King with nine Divine Rings!"
The God of Destruction seemed to be persuaded.
He spread his hands and said, "Say what you will. But there's definitely something special about you, kid. First, you inexplicably hand-forged a Plane, and now you've hand-forged a God Position?"
"Tell me, how did you do it?"
To this...
...Jin Mian smiled slightly. "Want to learn? Call me 'Teacher' and I'll teach you."
"..."
The God of Destruction was silent for a moment.
Then, with a tsundere expression, he said, "Are you joking? I am one of the Five Original God Kings, the God of Destruction who governs the destruction of all things. I'm not curious about these little tricks at all."
That being said...
...his eyes still drifted toward the God Position in Jin Mian's hand from time to time.
Alright.
He really was tempted.
But for the sake of his pride, he chose not to press further.
Instead, he asked, "So, do you plan to use this God Position for your second Martial Soul?"
Jin Mian shook his head.
"Of course not."
"Although this God Position of mine can already allow a long-time Level 99 Peerless Douluo Soul Master to break through the limit and reach Level 100 to become a god, I still feel like something is missing."
"So, until I figure out exactly what is missing, I won't absorb it."
The God of Destruction nodded.
He turned to leave.
But before leaving, he said, "Decide for yourself, as long as you don't delay the Destruction Divine Test."
"Also, you should head back."
"Congratulations."
Having said that, the God of Destruction turned and left.
These words left Jin Mian baffled.
Why congratulate him all of a sudden?
It couldn't be for hand-forging a God Position, could it?
The way a God King's mind works is truly incomprehensible.
Just then...
...the door to the Secret Chamber opened.
Xiao Hong and Xiao Lan rushed in.
"Papa..."
The two of them ran up to Jin Mian, one after the other.
They were panting heavily.
Their faces were full of anxiety.
Jin Mian glanced at the two little ones and said unhurriedly, "Look at you, why the rush? I've told you many times, no matter when or where, you must remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses before you. Take a breath and tell me slowly."
"Oh." Once their breathing stabilized, the two little ones slowly said, "Mama Xue'er is about to give birth. Mama Lingling wants us to find you and bring you back."
"Hey, I thought it was something major. It's just this little..."
Before he could finish...
...Jin Mian's expression changed drastically.
∑(mouth||!!!
"What! Xue'er is giving birth!"
"Why didn't you say so earlier! I'm off!"
Jin Mian didn't care about anything else and transformed into a ball of light.
That speed would even make The Flash bow in defeat!
With a loud crash...
...a human-shaped hole was left in the wall of the Secret Chamber.
"Didn't Papa say to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses before us?"
"Where is he?"
The two little ones stared at the human-shaped hole in a daze.
Then they also quickly left the Secret Chamber... the Hall of Worship.
In a courtyard...
...the Seven Great Consecrated Elders were all standing outside the door.
Surrounding them were dozens of Healing-type Spirit Emperors and Spirit Saints, as well as maids.
A look of worry was on everyone's face.
Seeing that Jin Mian had yet to arrive...
...Jin E was so angry he crushed two stone lions.
"This Stinky Kid, why did he have to go into seclusion at a time like this?"
"His wife is about to give birth, and he's still not back."
Beside him, Qian Daoliu unfolded his Angelic Domain.
He was muttering to himself, "May the Angel God protect her, may the Angel God protect her..."
Swish!
A flash of light passed.
Jin Mian was back.
"How is it? Has Xue'er birth?" Jin Mian asked anxiously.
Bright Feather replied, "Don't worry, Little Xue just went in not long ago. That girl Ye Lingling is inside with her. Everything will be fine."
Hearing Qian Renxue's heart-wrenching cries from inside the room...
...Jin Mian couldn't help but feel worried.
But in reality...
...his worry was entirely unnecessary.
With Qian Renxue's current physical strength...
...giving birth wouldn't be painful at all. The reason she was making such a loud noise...
...was entirely because it was her first time and she was a bit scared.
Before long...
...the sound of a baby crying rang out.
"Wah—wah!"
