Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods! Chapter264-Expansion and Competitions

After Rose and Reed successfully ascended, a remarkable phenonon began to occur.

Almost every few days, people from Crossbridge World ascended to the God Realm.

Crane, who had once been idle, was now constantly running between Crossbridge Town and the ascension site.

Despite his busyness, he had no complaints.

On the contrary, this new responsibility brought him joy.

For two hundred years, he had never experienced anything like this.

Previously, he could only watch other worlds send people to the God Realm, feeling envious as Crossbridge World remained dormant, with not a single ascendant.

Everything changed after Lord Daniel arrived in the God Realm.

Crossbridge Town and everything associated with it underwent significant transformations.

Even though Crane was now endlessly occupied, he found imnse happiness in it.

At the ascension site, the other guides no longer dared to speak up.

After all…

Their worlds could not compare to Crossbridge World!

Every few days, groups of ascendants, sotis as many as a dozen or more, and at least a few, would ascend together to the God Realm.

It was as if they had coordinated their efforts.

The guides had never encountered such a situation before.

Ascending to the God Realm required imnse talent.

In the Mortal Realm, many people spent their entire lives unable to reach the level required for ascension, let alone sense the God Realm's gateway.

For most worlds, having a few ascendants in a year was considered excellent.

But Crossbridge World?

It sent a thousand people in one go!

And afterward, every few days, more ascended in groups.

Moreover, they all seed to know each other.

It sounded absurd.

And yet, this absurdity was unfolding before everyone's eyes.

At first, when they saw groups ascending, the guides would double-check to ensure they weren't from their own world.

But soon, they stopped bothering to verify, assuming they were from Crossbridge World whenever multiple people ascended together.

Signs were even erected:

"Ascendants from Crossbridge World, please wait here. Your guide will arrive shortly."

Even those who had looked down on Crossbridge Town began to quiet down.

After all, what other world could send so many people at once?

And to top it off, this world continued to send ascendants consistently, showing no signs of slowing down.

During this ti, Ascension City underwent yet another expansion.

That's right—Daniel provided the 5-Elent God King with additional funding.

The God King went on a spending spree, purchasing unused ascension pathways from neighboring God Realms.

The population of the 5-Elent God Realm grew once again, thanks to these acquisitions.

The expansion beca so significant that the 5-Elent God Realm absorbed much of the neighboring Giant Mountain God Realm, leaving only the beast clans in the south untouched, as the God King seed uninterested in expanding in that direction.

In terms of land, population, and talent, the 5-Elent God Realm had reached a state of near saturation.

One day, the 5-Elent God King approached Daniel.

"Lord Daniel, I have a plan—a grand plan!"

Hearing the God King's tone, Daniel imdiately sensed trouble.

"What is it this ti? Spare the details if it's another one of your sches," Daniel said, exasperated.

"I want to expand toward the center of the God Realm," the God King declared.

"The center?" Daniel asked, puzzled.

The 5-Elent God Realm was located far from the God Realm's center. The closer one got to the center, the richer the resources.

The God King wanted to push the realm's borders toward the central regions.

"I see… Well, go ahead. Let know if you're short on divine stones," Daniel replied absentmindedly.

His attention was elsewhere—specifically, on the unresolved issue of the Star Map.

Despite having unlocked almost all the divine dynasty relics he had acquired, the Star Map from the very first relic was still incomplete, missing two critical fragnts.

Without these fragnts, the Star Map could not be fully activated, making it nearly useless for locating anything.

This predicant frustrated Daniel greatly.

He had already scoured the market for divine dynasty relics, purchasing almost everything available, yet the final fragnts remained elusive.

"Lord Daniel, you seem troubled. Is sothing wrong?"

"Don't ask. It's not worth ntioning. Let's focus on your expansion plans instead. Why this sudden idea, and why do you feel it's necessary?"

While the God King could be impulsive at tis, Daniel knew he wouldn't propose such a significant move without a good reason.

"Lord Daniel, I've been observing the other God Realms that haven't been attacked by the beast clans. I noticed that many of them are expanding toward the center of the God Realm," the God King explained.

"What's so special about the center? Beyond the abundant resources, is there any other benefit?"

Expanding toward the center would inevitably lead to conflicts with the God Realms already established there. Wouldn't that risk triggering premature problems, especially with impending calamities?

"I've heard that the Sun and Moon God Realms at the center are the true heart of the God Realm," the God King said.

"What does that an?"

"I'm not sure, but expanding toward the center has to be beneficial. We'll figure it out when the ti cos."

Hearing this, Daniel sighed.

"Fine, go ahead. If you need my help, just let know," he said.

The God King grinned.

"Don't worry, Lord Daniel. I'll manage it. If I really run into trouble, I'll co to you for assistance."

Stay connected via empire

"Oh, one more thing," the God King added.

"Ascension City has beco chaotic after several expansions. To bring order, I plan to host a competition for young people to identify those with the greatest talent and combat prowess."

"Also, I've noticed that many of the stronger God Realms have been organizing similar events. It's a good way to select the best young warriors."

Daniel glanced at him.

"So, you're only doing this because you saw others doing it?"

"Of course! Especially that Greenwood God Realm—they've expanded all the way to the Lunar God Realm's borders and are hosting tournants for their younger generation. I can't lose to them!"

Greenwood God Realm…

Daniel recalled that it was the sa realm that had nearly caused the 5-Elent God King to fall flat on his face in the past.

"So, are you asking for my help with this competition?" Daniel inquired.

"No, no, Lord Daniel. I've got it under control. Besides, this competition is for those under 200 years old. Your daughter will probably want to participate, right?"

"Under 200 years old? Sure, Rose can join. That's actually quite a broad age range. Do you have a category for those under 100?"

"What?" The God King looked dumbfounded.

"Never mind. Pretend I didn't ask. Rose just arrived in the God Realm; she might find it interesting," Daniel said.

"Oh, I see…" The God King grinned mischievously.
