308: Chapter 308 Are you ready to adapt to your new bodies?

Chen Xi slowly opened his eyes; within those crimson-gold pupils, it seemed as if a new universe was being born.

He glanced below the Control Tower. Across the vast and boundless Divine Domain Continent, tens of millions of Earth Players and the regular soldiers of the Southern District led by Commander-in-Chief Lei Zhentian were sitting cross-legged on the ground, the eyes of every single person burning with an extreme thirst for power.

During their year within this Divine Domain, they had pushed their levels to the Lv. 80 bottleneck through endless cross-level monster hunting and death runs. However, the bodies of carbon-based lifeforms had limits; without the baptism of high-dimensional laws, they would never be able to cross the threshold known as "Demigod" in their entire lives.

But today, Chen Xi was going to use the most unreasonable method to forcibly kick these tens of millions of humans into the realm of Demigods!

"Although the source laws of a True God are vast, dividing them among tens of millions of people means that after dilution, they can at most reach the threshold of a Demigod, which is around Lv. 90."

Chen Xi rubbed his chin, a domineering and cold smirk curling at the corner of his mouth.

"However, tens of millions of Lv. 90 Demigods who aren't afraid of death and can resurrect infinitely... even in the entire universe, this would definitely be a terrifying calamity capable of making any top-tier civilization wet their pants!"

Chen Xi slowly stood up and slammed his right hand onto the red button of the control console.

"Morning Star! Initiate the [Universal Godhood Project]!"

"Forcefully... upgrade the version for me!!!"

"Rumble————!!!!!"

With Chen Xi's command, the entire Heaven-Reaching Divine Domain erupted with the most powerful roar since the dawn of creation!

The [Mythic Law Card] that sealed the projection of the Astral God Emperor shattered in the void.

A golden True God source power, pure to the extreme and vast enough to ignite dozens of stars, poured down like a bursting river of stars!

Simultaneously, the god-creating cube released billions of dark-gold genetic restructuring codes, merging perfectly with the True God source power to become a "Nine-Colored Divine Light Rain" that covered the entire Divine Domain!

"Ding! Server-wide high-priority system broadcast!"

"[Epic Expansion Pack: Star-Forged Divine Body · Era of Universal Demigods] is now officially live!"

"All online players are about to forcibly enter the [Genetic Leap State]! Pain feedback will be temporarily locked at the 100% maximum threshold! Players, please grit your teeth and enjoy the pleasure of evolution!"

"After being reborn through fire, you will become... true Candidates for Godhood!!!"

The moment the Nine-Colored Divine Light Rain, containing the laws of creation, fell upon the tens of millions of players.

"AAAAAAHHHHH————!!!!"

A series of tragic, inhuman howls capable of tearing the sky apart exploded across the Divine Domain!

It was the extreme pain of genes being violently shattered, bone marrow being forcibly extracted, and cells being infused with high-dimensional energy! This pain far exceeded any form of torture in the world; if an ordinary person endured it for even 0.1 seconds, their mind would instantly collapse.

But! They were the fourth calamity!

They were the Earth Players who could dance in the mouths of Hellhounds and actively detonate nuclear reactors just to snatch a first kill!

"Holy shit! This pain simulation is too damn realistic! I feel like I've been put through a meat grinder ten thousand times!"

A Berserker player was spraying blood all over, his skin carbonizing and peeling off in large patches to reveal new bones emitting a dark-gold light. Yet, while screaming in pain, he let out a manic laugh.

"But brothers, look at the panel! My strength attribute has broken two thousand! Holy crap! It's at two thousand five hundred! It's still rising!!!"

"Hahaha! What's a little pain?! To show off, and to get this priceless 'Star-Forged Divine Body' cosmetic set for free, this pain is nothing! Healer, throw a Holy Light on me, I feel like I'm about to faint from the pleasure!"

A Mage player's body was constantly restructuring amidst thunder and divine fire. His originally fragile carbon-based physique was actually evolving into a bizarre state of semi-energy and semi-high-dimensional metal.

Instead of being afraid, he was dancing with excitement, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.

This frenzied feast of evolution lasted for a full twenty-four hours (Divine Domain time).

When the last ray of Nine-Colored Divine Light dissipated, the rising and falling screams on the Divine Domain finally subsided.

In its place was a terrifying aura that made even the soul tremble!

Tens of millions of Earth Players and the soldiers of the Southern District Expeditionary Force slowly stood up from the ground.

The cloth clothes and low-quality armor they wore had long since turned to ash during the evolution.

At this moment, dark-gold divine runes flowed across the skin of every person, their muscle lines as perfect as ancient Greek sculptures, and their eyes flickered with a heart-palpitating, eerie blue high-dimensional energy light!

A casual clenching of a fist could create a piercing sonic boom in the air!

A casual step could cause spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the hardened ground of the Divine Domain!

"Lv. 90..."

Looking at his hands, which were once again bursting with vitality and filled with infinite power, this battle-hardened, iron-blooded veteran, Commander-in-Chief Lei Zhentian, was actually moved to tears of joy.

Beside him, Li Zhenhai directly summoned a hundred-meter-long Blood-Colored God-Slaying Greatblade. Everywhere the blade pointed, space collapsed inch by inch!

"We... we've all actually stepped into the Demigod realm?!"

"Tens of millions of Demigods... how... how is this possible..."

Su Xiaoxiao, Li Murou, Ye Fei, and Lin Shan stood behind Chen Xi. Looking at the dense army of tens of millions below, emitting an aura that could destroy heaven and earth, even they, who were used to miracles, felt their scalps go numb.

Chen Xi looked down at the "fourth calamity" that had been completely transformed, feeling the terrifying power, comparable to a vast ocean, fed back into his body because of [Myriad Rivers Return to the Sea]. His current realm had completely broken through the True God barrier of Lv. 150, reaching an unknowable realm that even he couldn't name!

"A miracle? No, this is just taking back the inheritance left by our ancestors."

Chen Xi slowly raised his right hand and gave a crisp snap of his fingers.

"Players, soldiers. Have you adapted to your new bodies?"

"ROAR————!!!!"

Tens of millions of newly ascended Demigod-level players simultaneously tilted their heads back and let out a wild roar that shattered the clouds!

That sound wave even shook the simulated stars in the sky above the Divine Domain until they were teetering!
