Reks's body instantly swelled threefold, and his single-handed sword transformed into a double-handed crossguard sword suitable for both hands, his face contorted with fierce intensity—exactly like a demon freshly emerged from hell. The Jade Emperor grew impatient, huffing, "Only you can grow larger, huh? I can too!" As he spoke, his body expanded fivefold, though his Xuanyuan Sword, having previously cut through the blood-sacrifice array, temporarily lost its magical properties, leaving him weaponless and slightly outmatched compared to Reks. The Heavenly Emperor, the Purple Emperor, and Li Jing also grew several times larger, followed closely by the Queen Mother of the West. Even Yang Jian, once known as a mere silver-and-lead spearman, transformed into a tall, imposing golden-armored deity, proudly carrying his three-pointed, two-edged, eight-holed, eight-ring sword. Only Qin the Younger lacked this ability. He looked up at the senior figures, scoffing, "Does growing larger really matter? Does strength increase proportionally, or does the magic grow even more powerful?"
"The Heavenly Emperor shook his head and said, 'It's just looks impressive—it doesn't actually offer any other benefits.' 'Then why don't you join me?' Qin said, visibly displeased. "You all look so grand and impressive, yet I'm still the same as before." The Emperor blushed slightly, "I'll teach you once this battle is over." "Are you done talking? Are you going one by one to die, or are you coming as a group?" Rex muttered something extremely unpolished. "Today, every one of you will fall under my hands. Listen to me, everyone—those who follow me shall thrive, while those who oppose me shall perish. Anyone who surrenders before I kill them will receive a reward; those who surrender last will have no choice but to die." A deity responded firmly, "You're a spectacle, so give up your hopes. You yourself don't deserve for us to surrender—Emperor, Heavenly Emperor, and the other powerful ones will surely chop off your head and use it as a football for us to kick around."
"Rex roared, 'Remember this man—he won't accept his surrender!' With that, he swung his heavy sword forward, meeting the first wave of attacks led by the Jade Emperor and the two Great Emperors. Li Jing, the Queen Mother of the West, and Yang Jian focused on harassing the flanks, while Qin Shao executed a surprise assault. After all, who could have expected him to lack the ability to grow larger? Among the tall figures now, he looked like a mere fly. His small size had its advantages—agile and mobile. Clang! Rex's heavy sword struck against the Purple Wei Emperor's weapon, sending a burst of sparks flying. Under the powerful force, the Purple Wei Emperor was thrown backward uncontrollably. The Heaven Emperor and the Jade Emperor quickly stepped in, perfectly synchronized—one attacking above, the other below. 'Overconfident,' Rex said, simply swinging his sword in a wide arc, and effortlessly sent both of them staggering and falling.
The Queen Mother and Li Jing immediately launched attacks from the flanks, while Yang Jian leapt high, aiming his spear at Rex's throat. Rex executed a spinning maneuver, deflecting the weapons of the Queen Mother and Li Jing before delivering a powerful kick that sent Yang Jian flying. "Ah..." Yang Jian cried out, spitting blood as he flew backward, calling, "I can't hold on anymore, Uncle, Auntie—now it's up to you." The Queen Mother scolded angrily, "Pathetic youngster—when it matters most, you truly let us down." Thud... Rex staggered—Qi Shao had struck him hard on the back. "Hateful Qin Feng! Today, I'll have you dead first!" the魔皇 roared. Qi Shao smiled, using the thousand-mile transmission technique to announce to everyone, "Now you needn't fear—as long as I'm still alive, he won't lay a hand on you. You have the perfect opportunity to strike back." "Understood, kid," the Emperor Huang Tian said, rolling his eyes.
Six figures adjusted their strategies, launching attacks from different directions with remarkable coordination. Yet strength ultimately determined the outcome. Li Jing was the first to suffer a severe injury; had it not been for his steadfast will, he would have lost control of his very foundation—the祥云—tumbling helplessly to the ground, rescued by others. The Jade Emperor personally pressed several pills directly into his mouth. Though the chaotic flow of energy within his meridians had stabilized, Li Jing had lost the capacity to continue fighting. The second to be severely wounded was the Heavenly Emperor, followed by the Emperor of the Jade Palace, then the Emperor of the Purple Emperor. To everyone's surprise, the Queen Mother of the West, a woman of noble standing, remained resolute. As for Qin Feng, who had been primarily tasked with surprise attacks and thus had limited opportunities to engage directly with Rex, his endurance until now was entirely understandable. The Emperor of the Jade Palace swallowed the pills, raised his sword, stood up, wiped blood from his lips, and said, "I still intend to ascend and fight. With only the Queen Mother and Qin Feng remaining, how could we possibly stand a chance against the Demon Emperor?"
"The Taishang Laojun quickly intercepted him, saying, "Your combat strength has dwindled to less than three-tenths. Even if you charge forward to fight, you'll barely withstand a single attack—your only option is to die. Therefore, you should remain and rest." The situations of the Ziwai and Haotian Emperors were similar as well; essentially, all three had no chance to join the battle.
"How can I handle this guy? His mind is racing now. Suddenly, he recalls the sixth technique of the Hao Tian Hammer—'Wu Ji Da Dao.' If he channels all the spiritual energy within his body into it, he might achieve a decisive, one-hit knockout. But how can he make the opponent stand still so he can strike? No matter how powerful the technique, if it doesn't connect with the opponent, it's all for nothing. A flash of inspiration strikes him, and he immediately has a plan. 'You really talk a lot,' Qin Shao says with a sniff. 'Why don't we each unleash our strongest techniques at the same time and see who comes out on top? Will you dare?' Rex bursts into laughter. 'Right now, my strength is ten times what it was before. How could you possibly be my match? Since you've set the conditions, I'll meet them. Let's go!' 'Fine! Whoever runs away is a coward!' Qin Shao raises his sleeve and lifts the Hao Tian Hammer high. On the Celestial Court side, the Jade Emperor asks the Emperor of Heaven, 'What is Qin Feng planning? Is he aiming for a two-way stalemate, or a mutual annihilation?'
"I don't know. That young man's always playing by his own rules—maybe it's a trap," said the Emperor of the Heavens. While they were speaking, Qin Feng and Rex had already moved. With no reservation, Qin Feng poured all his spiritual energy into the hammer and launched it with a roar: "The Way of Infinite Purity... you're going to die!" Rex cut through with a blade of light: "When gods stand in the way, slay them; when buddhas stand in the way, destroy them." Qin's preparations for evasion were solid—he had fully entrusted his hope to the Star Shuttle. Yet, at the very moment it mattered most, the high-speed Star Shuttle was blocked by the Magi-Emperor's swordlight and could not break through the wave of energy to reach its master.
Man, what a pity.
Crash... snap... Qin Feng was engulfed by a swordbeam, his body instantly turning to dust, and his consciousness ceased at that very instant.
"Qin Feng!"
"Disciple!"
"Marshal!"
Voices rose and fell in a continuous stream, chaos spreading across both the heavenly and demonic realms.
…不知过了多久,Qin Feng opened his eyes to a scene that left him stunned—how could it be the Island of Death? He leapt up from the grass, yet the Island of Death had clearly been destroyed by him. How could it now appear untouched? His consciousness had lingered at the moment of battle against Rex—he should have been cleaved to pieces by Rex’s swordlight, turned to ash. Yet here he was. Could it be, as some texts described, that upon death, he had encountered a temporal turbulence and been reborn two years earlier?
"Damn it."
"He jumped up, shouting, 'I'm completely out of luck! Can it be that I have to destroy this place once again, and start over in the State of Huaxia? My company, all these rare treasures, my wives—oh, wow...!' A deep wolf-like howl echoed as he settled down, quietly, sitting heavily on the ground. Two clear tears traced down his face. Suddenly, he lifted his head, gripping his fists and said, 'It's not like it's anything revolutionary—just go through it all again. What's so hard about that? My wives, just wait for me. Even if I give my life to it, I'll bring each of you back to me one by one.' In truth, he knew well that no matter how deeply he remembered every moment with each woman, he couldn't exactly recreate his past life exactly as it was. A single small change would trigger a serious chain reaction, leading to results beyond his control. That's precisely what the butterfly effect is all about."
***, Laozi has really been hit hard—how did it happen that he suddenly decided to go down with Rex in a last-ditch effort? Didn't the Jade Emperor, or the Emperor of the Heavenly Realm, show any kindness? Didn't they step in when Laozi was about to vanish in smoke and ash? At that moment, a familiar voice rang out: "Xiao Feng, what are you doing?" It was Mei Hui's voice. He thought he'd been hallucinating—so suddenly he turned around, only to be completely stunned. What on earth was going on? There stood Mei Hui, Fang Fang, Shu Ya Jing, He Mu Qing, Fang Fei, Ling Er, Huang Xiao Zhi, and others—all dressed in different styles, yet each one radiating a sweet, warm smile. What in the world is happening? Who can explain this to me? Laozi was about to lose his mind. Shu, the police officer, spoke up: "Everyone, did you hear? Just now, he clearly placed us last—companies, treasures, all of that—seemed to matter more than us." The girls all dropped their smiles and fixed him with cold, piercing glares.
Qin leapt up from the ground with a sudden motion and rushed toward them, "Well then, you've been misbehaving—daring to tease your husband like this! I'll have your share of household discipline… no, let's begin it right now!" In the heavens, the immortals watched with smiles. The Emperor of the Heavens said, "Since this young man has awakened, shouldn't we crown him as the Emperor Qin Feng?" The Jade Emperor nodded, "Let's begin preparations for the coronation ceremony. Without Qin Feng's self-sacrificial battle against the Emperor of the Demon Race, our heavenly realm might have fallen to the demon forces." Indeed, when Qin Feng and Rex perished together, the demon forces lost their leadership and chose to surrender, securing a great victory for the heavenly realm. Yet, upon Qin Feng's passing, the heavenly beings were deeply grieved. The Sage of the Highest Perfection recalled that during the match between Qin Feng and Rex, he had given Qin Feng a pill capable of preserving his consciousness, and thus summoned the remaining consciousness through his magic. Together, the gods of the heavenly realm then worked tirelessly—not only to rebuild his physical form, but also to restore his original rank and status.
Moreover, everyone unanimously decided to crown him and title him the Emperor Qin Feng. As for the Island of Death, it was a joke played by the young ladies, which he fell for the moment he opened his eyes, failing to realize that he remained a high-ranking immortal. While preparing for a grand ceremony in his room, Qin, the young lord, received a transmission from his master over a distance of a thousand miles. Immediately, his trademark sly smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Emperor Qin Feng—what a splendid title! I gladly accept it. Then, hurry up and prepare yourselves. I have some private matters to attend to, and no one is to disturb me, or else I shall not rest until I've had my say." The end.

After the Spring Festival, the work environment at Le Gao's office has undergone significant changes. Daily time allocated for writing and developing storylines has been compressed, directly resulting in inconsistent updates. Combined with a loss of control over the narrative, and other factors such as title changes and chapter revisions, Le Gao has been compelled to accelerate the pace and complete the book. Regardless, Le Gao has made every effort to deliver a relatively complete and satisfying ending. Below is a brief introduction to the new novel, *Nine Transformations of the狂 God*, which is also a first-release title. Indeed, it belongs to the Eastern fantasy genre—a theme that has long been a personal aspiration of Le Gao, now fully realized through this work. In fact, several years ago, Le Gao had already written a long fantasy series under a different pen name on a well-known website, achieving considerable success. Therefore, readers need not worry—Le Gao is far from a novice in the fantasy genre and is certain to bring fresh and engaging experiences to the readers.
