389: Chapter 376 The Order of the New World

"What... what is this?"

"A miracle! This is a miracle!"

"I can Cultivate now? I can see an Immortal too?"

"Thank you, Divine Lord Lin Feng! Thank you, Heavenly Emperor!"

Countless cheers rang through the sky. It was joy from the bottom of their hearts, a hope for a new beginning.

Lin Feng stood outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, listening to the cheers from the Lower Realm, watching as the eye of the Heavenly Dao slowly faded away, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Done."

"Now, I finally don't have to worry about anyone plotting anything behind my back."

"Everyone is busy doing tasks to level up, who has the time to fight? Who has the time to scheme?"

Lin Feng turned around and looked behind him.

Nuwa, Tongtian, Kong Xuan, Nezha, Monkey King... everyone was standing there, looking at him with an expression bordering on worship.

"Divine Lord... you did it." Kong Xuan's voice trembled as he knelt on one knee.

Lin Feng shrugged, returning to his usual devil-may-care demeanor.

"Of course, don't you know who I am?"

"Let's go, back to Tiance Mansion. This battle left me sore all over, I need to find a masseur to work out the knots. Oh right, Nezha, set up the barbecue stand tonight, I want to eat roasted Dragon liver and Phoenix marrow... Oh wait, they are protected animals now, let's just have roasted whole lamb."

Time flew, like a white horse passing a crack in a wall.

Ten full years had passed since that decisive battle known as the "War of Opening the Heavens."

For the Primordial world, these ten years were a decade of earth-shaking changes. No, to be precise, the Primordial world should now be called the "Primordial Multiverse Cultivation Federation."

The Heavenly Court, once shrouded in clouds, filled with dancing cranes, and strictly hierarchical, had undergone a radical change in style.

The South Heaven Gate still stood tall, as majestic as ever, but this gate was no longer carved from white jade; it was crafted from a mixture of high-strength nano-alloys and Top-Grade Spirit Stone, with holographic neon signs flashing on the door frame:

[Welcome to the First Heaven · Central Administrative District]

[Please present your electronic Immortal registration code]

[Traffic restrictions for today: Cultivators with even-numbered Flying Sword tail codes, please detour. Violators will have 10 points of Karma deducted.]

Cool-looking spaceships shuttled through the clouds. These ships were driven by both traditional Formation runes and anti-gravity engines and warp drives redeemed from Lin Feng's System.

This was the era of "Cyber Cultivation" created single-handedly by Lin Feng.

At this moment, where the Lingxiao Palace originally stood, a skyscraper towering into the clouds had been erected—the Federal Building. This building connected directly to the Thirty-Three Heavens and was the power center of the entire Federation.

Top floor, Chairman's office.

Lin Feng was sitting on that iconic Geng Metal boss chair, helplessly looking at a pile of holographic documents, feeling a headache coming on.

"Chairman Lin, this is the 'Undersea Tunnel Expansion Plan' submitted by the Dragon King of the East Sea. They want to introduce quantum transmission technology from the surface to start a 'teleportation express' service, saying they want to deliver seafood to customers' tables within one second."

"This is an urgent email from King Yama of the underworld, saying that the 'Cyber Requiem' business has been too popular recently and he wants to apply for more server bandwidth. Also, that 'book of life and death APP' has been lagging a bit recently, and he wants to ask Immortal Master Taiyi from the technical department to fix it."

"Also, the Western Sect (now renamed 'Elysium Media Group') asks if you can be a special guest judge for this week's 'The Voice of Cultivation'? Many new talents from the Yao Race are participating this time."

Reporting the work was Venus. The old man no longer wore long robes; he was in a sharp, tailored suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, holding the latest tablet computer, his hair combed until it shone—a veritable corporate elite.

Lin Feng rubbed his temples, pushed the documents aside, and looked devastated.

"Taibai, just let the Jade Emperor... oh no, let President Zhang (Zhang Bairen) handle these trivial matters. Didn't I say, I'm just a figurehead, a mascot, don't come to me for everything."

Venus gave a bitter smile: "Chairman, President Zhang says these are all major issues and he doesn't dare to decide on his own. Besides, everyone only respects you. If you don't sign, those Dragon Kings and King Yamas won't accept it at all."

Since the establishment of the new order, although Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen was still the administrative head in name, everyone knew that the real boss was Lin Feng.

Among the Three Pure Ones, after their Physical Bodies were shattered and reconstructed by Lin Feng, Laozi and Primordial Heaven Lord were completely subdued. They were now in seclusion outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, researching something called "the compatibility of quantum mechanics and the Dao," and it is said they had even published several papers.

The Master of Tongtian, on the other hand, had completely let himself go, opening a chain of training institutions called "Jiejiao Sword Dojo" on Penglai Island. Business was booming, and it was said that even Nezha would go there to audit classes when he had nothing to do.

Empress Nuwa had become the Federation's "Chief Dean of Life Sciences," specializing in researching how to optimize the genes of the Human Race, which could be said to be fulfilling her wish.

"Alright, alright, approve them all."

Lin Feng signed his name on the virtual screen with a flourish. "Tell the old Dragon King that the express delivery business is fine, but child labor (shrimp soldiers and crab generals) is not allowed. Tell King Yama that server expansion funding must be self-raised; if it's not enough, go crowdfunding. As for Tathagata... tell him to pay off the copyright fees he owes me first. He still hasn't paid for covering my 'Great Compassion Mantra' last time."

"Yes!" Venus, as if granted amnesty, quickly slipped away.

Lin Feng stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking this bizarre and wonderful new world.

He had to admit, this world where technology and cultivation perfectly fused was really interesting.

You could see delivery guys riding Flying Swords, and factories using Samadhi True Fire to smelt steel. Even the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's Pill Furnace had become a fully automatic temperature-controlled high-pressure reactor, with a pill success rate as high as 99%.

Everyone had exercises to practice, everyone had food to eat.

Wasn't this the boast he had made back then? Now it had truly been realized.

"Divine Lord, bored?"

A crisp voice rang out. Nezha stepped on his Wind Fire Wheels—now modified into a jet-powered anti-gravity skateboard—and flew in directly from outside the window, landing steadily on Lin Feng's desk.

Nezha was now the "Director of the Federal Public Security Bureau," wearing a red nano-mech battle suit, looking dashing, and holding a cup of bubble tea in his hand.

"A little bored." Lin Feng sighed. "How lonely it is to be invincible."

"I want to fight, but no one dares to take the challenge. I want to show off, but no one dares to question me. Even those old schemers who wanted to plot against me before have all become kind-hearted now, and I'm embarrassed to make a move."

"I feel like I'm about to rust."

Nezha chuckled and took out two metal balls that looked like peaches from his bosom: "Then how about we go racing outside the Thirty-Three Heavens? This is the 'Heaven-Mixing Thunder' engine just developed by Junior Martial Uncle Taiyi, it's super fast! It's said it can outrun the speed of light!"

Lin Feng was just about to agree, when suddenly, his expression changed.

It wasn't fear, but a kind of... resonance.

It was a summons from the depths of his Soul, perhaps even from outside this Universe.

"Hum..."

The Pangu Dao Law within Lin Feng's body began to operate automatically, resonating strongly with that summons. He felt the power within him boiling, yearning for an even wider world.
