"So, let summarize. After I leave here, you'll seal those Church of Origins mbers inside the Mirror of Fate, and the mirror will be placed beneath the Sun and Lunar God Realm, correct?"
"That's right," the God Emperor replied.
"Alright, I've got no issues. What about you? If everything's settled, I'll head back to the God Realm."
"There's nothing more to discuss. We've finalized the plans. If everything works as intended, you'll find a glimr of hope in the Apocalypse."
Daniel nodded.
"And you?"
"I will rge with the Mirror of Fate and fulfill my final mission," the God Emperor said with a calm smile.
He had long accepted his fate and didn't need any reassurance.

All he hoped for was that the future would bring a chance to survive the Apocalypse.
"Then… farewell."
"Indeed. Let's hope we et again in the God Realm of the future…"
With that, Daniel left.
He knew they would never et again because when he first arrived in the God Realm, the Mirror of Fate had already shattered.
As Daniel stepped out of the pavilion, he noticed that the structure behind him was beginning to fade.
It was disappearing into ti itself.
The pavilion had likely only remained intact this long due to the God Emperor's power, and now it was returning to its rightful conclusion.
It was never ant to exist in the present.
Sighing softly, Daniel composed himself and turned to the three divine beasts.
"How much ti has passed?"
Daniel noticed that the surroundings looked different from when he first entered the pavilion.
It was clear that more ti had passed outside than it felt like inside.
"More than half a year," the Ancestral Unicorn answered.
Half a year?
Daniel was astonished. He had assud only a short ti had passed outside, but it turned out to be over six months.
Upon reflection, though, it made sense.
The pavilion was tied to the realm of ti, capable of bridging millions of years and enabling a conversation between two people from entirely different eras.
Given its nature, the accelerated passage of ti outside was understandable.
But this realization ant Daniel needed to hurry back to the God Realm.
According to his and the God Emperor's plan, the Gold Board would have descended into the God Realm the mont Daniel left.
After six months, the competition for the Gold Board was likely nearing its end.
If Daniel didn't return quickly, the Church of Origins might already be on the verge of breaking their seal.
He trusted that if Rose and the others made it to the final stage of the Gold Board's competition and saw the ssage he left, they would act imdiately.
They would surely evacuate everyone from the Sun and Lunar God Realm.
But when that happened, the Church of Origins mbers—still sealed—would likely attempt to break free to stop it.
Daniel had to get back as soon as possible.
Turning to the three divine beasts, he asked:
"Are you still unwilling to return to the God Realm?"
"We only wish for our clans to survive," the Ancestral Unicorn said.
"That's fine, but you must co back to the God Realm with . I won't harm your clans," Daniel replied.
Although the three divine beasts appeared aged and frail, Daniel could feel the imnse vitality within them.
Their powers were nearly at their peak. With their help, they could protect the 5-Elent God Realm.
"As you command, my lord," they responded.
God Realm
In the skies above the Sun and Lunar God Realm, the ethereal palace still floated, surrounded by nine Gold Boards.
Since the Gold Board's descent, many young prodigies from across the God Realm had gathered.
The areas surrounding the palace were filled with trials and resources. Passing the trials allowed the participants to strengthen themselves further.
The closer one got to the palace's central area, the more difficult the trials beca.
Those who passed the final trial would earn the opportunity to claim a Gold Board and gain its recognition, ascending to the rank of Ruler.
This opportunity was reserved for prodigies under the age of 100.
Every participant was doing everything in their power to overco the trials.
During this period, people were astonished by the sheer number of prodigies in the God Realm.
So individuals rapidly advanced through the trials, becoming stronger step by step, with so even reaching the God King rank.
Among the renowned factions participating, a new force had caught everyone's attention over the past six months: Crossbridge Academy.
Initially, many had never heard of this academy, assuming it was a small, insignificant institution.
But when Rose, Reed, Big White, and King Shark effortlessly dominated the trials, everyone realized that Crossbridge Academy was far from ordinary.
To everyone's surprise, it was revealed that the strongest prodigy of House La. was Reed's wife from Crossbridge Academy.
This revelation shocked the entire God Realm.
Speculation ran rampant: what kind of academy was Crossbridge Academy?
House La. was arguably the most powerful family in the God Realm, yet Crossbridge Academy was worthy of forming an alliance with them through marriage.
Over the past six months, these prodigies had made trendous progress and were now on the verge of reaching the palace's summit.
The nine golden boards shone brilliantly above.
Beneath them were enormous arenas, and participants had to win their way through these arenas to reach the altars below the Gold Boards and vie for recognition.
Outside the palace, nurous figures hovered in the air, holding Illusion Stones.
These individuals were from the 5-Elent God Realm, responsible for broadcasting the events.
Since the last ti this thod was used, the 5-Elent God King realized its effectiveness.
With most of the God Realm's population now concentrated in the 5-Elent God Realm and the Sun and Lunar God Realm due to the Devils of Chaos, this was the perfect opportunity to showcase the prowess of the 5-Elent God Realm's prodigies.
Crossbridge Academy was a part of the 5-Elent God Realm, after all.
"Attention, everyone! The first group of prodigies is about to erge at the summit. Which factions will they belong to?"
As the scenes played out on the Illusion Stone screens, spectators began speculating.
"It has to be House La.! I heard their top prodigy has dominated their entire family. No one could match them in the trials."
"House La.? Aren't they connected to the 5-Elent God Realm? That prodigy's wife is from here."
"True, that Reed guy is incredible! I think the 5-Elent God Realm might take four Gold Boards!"
"I disagree. The top factions in the Sun and Lunar God Realm aren't to be underestimated!"
The spectators were abuzz with debate.
After the Devils of Chaos were defeated, the past six months had been relatively peaceful, and these debates over the prodigies' strengths had beco a popular pasti.
However, the competition for the Gold Board was the ultimate test.
Those who lacked sufficient strength would inevitably be eliminated.
