Ten Thousand Worlds Chat Group
Li Er:
"Why hasn't Sister Solanum (Long Kui) spoken recently?"
Ninja Scientist:
"I noticed too. She used to be the most active. Five days ago, she said she was close to finding her brother."
Tanjiro:
"Maybe she's just spending time with him. A family reunion after so long is worth celebrating."
Chu Dashan:
"Ahem... Brothers, I recently succeeded in offering a sacrifice. Something major happened."
For Peace:
"Bathed in God's grace? Or did you grow stronger? We're all like that now. Nothing special."
By now, everyone in the group was used to bathing in divine grace.
It was no longer surprising.
At most, it meant growing stronger.
Chu Dashan:
"You don't get it. Didn't I say before that everything seemed plain?
But after God's guidance, I learned the truth—our world is a cemetery."
Li Er:
"Cemetery? What do you mean? curious.jpg"
Chu Dashan:
"Put simply—the world we live in is already dead.
There may be terrifying beings here, but we're already in the underworld.
We were born dead."
Li Shimin took a sharp breath.
Such a bizarre truth?
Chu Dashan:
"You might not believe me. I didn't either at first.
But when the God reshaped my body, I felt it—the coldness of the world itself.
That kind of cold that no living person can imagine.
I used to feel warmth under the sun.
Now? I can't feel even a hint of heat."
Li Er:
"o((⊙﹏⊙))o... terrifying!"
Ninja Scientist:
"It's hard to imagine. A world of the dead, yet no one knows they've already died.
They can bleed, feel pain, but remain unaware of their death.
That's terrifying."
Chu Dashan:
"I'll show you.
Here's what our new lives look like now."
Group Member Chu Dashan uploaded a video.
In the footage, a blood altar built from the remains of strange beasts stood tall.
A fierce battle raged.
But when the God appeared, everything changed.
The world looked ordinary—
normal, even.
But when divine light fell, they could feel the chill, the black mist pulling something from their bodies.
The starry sky itself had died.
Li Er:
"What do you mean by 'starry sky'? Are there people living among the stars?"
Chu Dashan:
"Yes. We're on Earth.
Outside is the Milky Way, and beyond that, countless galaxies.
According to God, do you know how many living beings there once were?
But they've all died.
It's ridiculous.
Some of the beings powerful enough to destroy stars with a wave of their hand didn't even realize how or when they died."
in the Ninja World
Orochimaru licked his dry lips.
He realized how little he truly knew about the gods.
So there are planets beyond Earth...
That means I could conquer aliens in the future?
Ninja Scientist:
"It can't be that every world is Earth.
Your world might be even bigger."
God of Eternity:
"Don't doubt. There are aliens in your world.
Look at the moon—you can see those white-eyed clans.
Even the mother of the Sage of Six Paths is an alien."
Ninja Scientist:
(〃'▽'〃) "Shocked... God is online today! Worship!"
Li Er:
"I greet my God. My God is eternal.
Is it the same in my world?"
God of Eternity:
"Your world is smaller.
But beyond the Central Plains lie countless unruly races.
They are savages."
Li Er:
"Understood. I'll conquer the Central Plains first—then wipe out the rest!"
Chu Dashan:
"I greet my God! @Li Er, brother... I have a map from your era you can use."
Li Er:
"Thanks."
For Peace:
"The world is vast and full of wonders.
I now realize how small I truly am."
Tanjiro:
 ̄. ̄) "I don't fully understand what you're all saying, but it sounds amazing.
There are people living on the moon?"
Spirit of the Demon Sword:
"I thank my God.
In the past, your follower Long Kui was ignorant and angered you.
From now on, my sister Hong Kui and I will offer countless tributes."
Li Er:
"Σ(っД;)っ Shocked... Long Kui isn't cute anymore. She's become so serious.
I really don't like it."
Ninja Scientist:
"People change. Don't underestimate her growth! pouts.jpg"
Tanjiro:
"Sister Long Kui is good."
Chu Dashan:
"Sister Long Kui must be very happy to be reunited with her brother now.
After a thousand years apart, there must be so much to say."
For Peace:
"Congratulations. A family reunion deserves a toast."
Pirates of the Caribbean:
"People always grow, just like me. Once a lost lamb..."
For Peace:
"No—you were never a lamb. You've always been an old conman!"
Pirates of the Caribbean:
⊙﹏⊙)... "Come on, give me a break! Call me your father if you must!"
For Peace:
"Ahem. I'm just reminding you not to deceive the God. Is that so wrong?"
Pirates of the Caribbean:
"Integrity is the only thing in my dictionary. I even carved it into my arm! No reminders needed, got it?"
Spirit of the Demon Sword:
"My brother... he was killed right in front of me the day we reunited."
The lively chat group suddenly went silent.
It was too tragic.
A thousand years of waiting.
She had just found him again.
A few days ago, Long Kui had even happily promised to introduce him to everyone.
They could still remember her joy.
Li Er:
"...Silence.
Let's focus on inviting the God of Eternity to resurrect him.
Tanjiro is already a good example."
Chu Dashan:
"Sorry. I didn't know the situation."
For Peace:
"Sorrow."
Ninja Scientist:
"Stay strong. Focus on gathering believers.
When the God sees your dedication, the siblings will reunite."
Tanjiro:
"Sister Long Kui, don't cry.
I understand your feelings.
My family was slaughtered a year ago.
I know the anger and helplessness you feel."
Ninja Scientist:
"You and her aren't the same.
Long Kui has waited a thousand years."
Tanjiro:
⊙﹏⊙) "A thousand... I misunderstood."
Spirit of the Demon Sword:
"You don't need to comfort me, but thank you.
From this, I've realized—without power, there's only helplessness."
"If I had been stronger before, I wouldn't have cared about insignificant people.
I wouldn't have angered the God.
No one is more important than my brother."
"Being kind-hearted is a sin.
Especially when that kindness is wasted on strangers.
You only end up hurting yourself."
"I've learned from the goddess Xi Yao that my brother was once the God of War.
The Jade Emperor, out of jealousy, forced him into reincarnation.
Because I worshiped the Lord God, the Emperor panicked and located my brother before I did."
"When we finally met, they tried to force my brother to kill me.
He refused and was imprisoned."
"Then they gave me a cruel choice—my death, or his."
"I already knew their true intentions.
Even if I died, they would just use the same trick against Hong Kui next."
"So they detonated my brother's true spirit."
Li Er:
"That kind of trash dares call himself Emperor of Heaven?
No wonder the God says all others are false gods. Damn him!"
For Peace:
"Except for my God, none of those self-proclaimed gods are truly benevolent."
Ninja Scientist:
"Agreed. In my world, even the so-called Six Paths Sage's family turned out to be aliens!"
Ninja Scientist:
"And did you know?
Our world's three great holy places—frogs, slugs, and snakes—are all suspicious.
They probably manipulate the world's development for their own benefit!"
Chu Xuanfeng:
"Is that even a question?
'If they are not my race, their hearts must differ.'"
Pirates of the Caribbean:
"I support Sister Long Kui!
Come on—destroy the Emperor!
Become the ruler of the Three Realms!"
That day, the chat group was in chaos.
Aside from a few words early on, Liu Che chose to remain silent—just quietly watching.
The reason was simple.
The gods must remain mysterious.
Liu Che preferred to simply observe their situation silently.
As for the death of Jing Tian (Sedum), it had been expected.
However, he hadn't anticipated that Hong Kui would be so ruthless.
In the end, he allowed Long Kui to handle it.
And as a result, Long Kui endured a harsh blow—
an awakening born from agony.
Among the chat group members, only Murong Fu had yet to build an altar.
Everyone else had already established theirs.
The current fanatics included Orochimaru, Long (Dragon), Chu Xuanfeng, Tanjirou, and Li Shimin.
Now even Long Kui had become a fanatic.
It seemed the first world would soon be fully reclaimed.
If there were no accidents, it would either be the ghost world below or the world of Datang Shuanglong.
Both worlds were progressing quickly.
Temple after temple was being built.
The dominion of their God expanded endlessly,
and the divine powers they could wield grew stronger with every offering.
As long as an entire world could be recycled,
Liu Che's strength would break into a terrifying new stage.
At that point, it would be laughably easy to erase the so-called "native gods"
—like those in the Cemetery of Saints.
Liu Che smiled faintly and silently descended into the God's Domain.
At this moment, the God's Domain was full of life.
After Chu Xuanfeng's sacrifice, many new sacred beasts had been born.
"Welcome, Lord God!"
Hinata and Hanabi said softly, bowing at a perfect 180 degrees.
The two little girls had grown a bit since he last saw them.
Their once short, silver-white hair now flowed all the way down to their heels,
making them look even more adorable.
Liu Che gently patted their heads and asked with a smile,
"Good girls. Where's your elder sister?"
Hinata pointed toward the heavenly palace floating among distant clouds.
"They're feeding the sacred cranes. Do you want us to call them back?"
"No need. If they finish early, they can go out and play.
Just don't come back too late."
"Yes, Lord God!"
Though Liu Che could easily understand everyone's loyalty,
he still made the effort to ask gently.
Otherwise, such adorable girls would gradually lose their vitality
and become dull and mechanical.
That wasn't acceptable.
Now, when he asked them questions and patted their heads,
their bright eyes squinted happily,
clearly enjoying the moment.
Next, Liu Che floated into the skies above God's Domain,
observing the divine beasts below.
The newly born creatures had already been sorted into various regions according to their natures.
The most outstanding among them were the Purple Jade Python and the Ten Thousand Snakes.
This hermaphroditic snake had successfully completed the egg-hatching process.
Now it spent its days chasing after a Magnetic Moonlight Butterfly.
Well, if a snake loved butterflies, there was nothing wrong with it—
as long as the butterfly could handle it.
The amusing part was:
the snake was 10,000 meters long,
while the butterfly was only ten meters.
Would their offspring be eggs... or butterflies?
Liu Che smiled as he watched the orderly world he had created.
Satisfied, he chose to stay overnight in the Magnolia Palace—
the residence of the Butterfly Sisters.
The lively trio made it a very warm and cheerful place.
Meanwhile, in the Naruto World—
Following the formal dissolution of Kirigakure,
and the establishment of the Eternal Church,
Amegakure soon followed, declaring the same.
Even the peace-loving Tanigakure announced their disbandment.
Though their country's leaders protested the disbanding of their ninja village,
faced with the danger to their lives,
those cowardly nobles had no choice but to nod and agree.
At Konohagakure, inside the Hokage office—
Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage,
rubbed her temples with her fingers in frustration.
What the hell is going on...?
Orochimaru, the once-feared rogue ninja,
had somehow become a divine agent.
And the most absurd part was—
all the other ninja villages seemed to accept it.
Even the daimyō (feudal lords) were calling it "true peace."
Tsunade's blood boiled with anger.
"Tsunade-sama," said Shizune quietly, standing at her side,
"what should we do?
The other villages are reporting that several Tailed Beasts have been captured."
Orochimaru was frantically collecting Tailed Beasts,
claiming that they were sacrifices to the God.
And whoever dared to obstruct him
was committing blasphemy.
Of course, no one truly believed that excuse.
It was clear Orochimaru intended to use the Tailed Beasts as weapons—
and possibly unite the entire Ninja World under his banner.
In response, the four great nations had launched an attack on Kirigakure.
But before they could make a move—
the weakest of them, Sunagakure,
was devastated.
They hadn't even had time to resist.
Gaara, who had just ascended as Kazekage,
was captured.
No one knew what methods Orochimaru had used.
But one thing was clear:
the Tailed Beast was extracted.
Now Gaara wandered like a broken doll,
chanting endlessly about "God" and "the God of Eternity,"
calling for Sunagakure to disband
and join the Eternal Church.
Currently, according to intelligence reports:
One-Tail, Three-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails
had all fallen into Orochimaru's hands.
Nearly half the Tailed Beasts!
Tsunade slammed the intelligence report onto her desk, furious.
"What the hell am I supposed to do?!
What do they want from us?"
"They say Orochimaru was once a Konoha rogue," Shizune whispered.
"So... it's our responsibility."
"Bullshit!" Tsunade roared.
"They all acknowledged he was a criminal before!
He killed the Third Hokage with his own hands!"
And now they dared to push this mess onto Konoha?!
The Hokage guards outside the door exchanged worried glances.
At that moment, footsteps echoed in the corridor.
A man with spiky white hair, clogs, and a large scroll strapped to his back entered.
Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, had returned.
"Jiraiya-sama, you're back!" a guard said.
"Yeah. Where's Tsunade?"
"In her office. But... her mood's not great."
Jiraiya nodded, then walked in.
The atmosphere inside was heavy.
"You called me back urgently.
Is it because of Orochimaru?" Jiraiya asked bluntly.
"Of course!" Tsunade snapped.
"That bastard's already captured four Tailed Beasts.
If Naruto loses the Nine-Tails, do you even realize what that would mean?!"
Jiraiya's expression turned grim.
He placed a rolled-up map on Tsunade's desk.
"What's this?"
"The distribution map of the Eternal Church.
The situation is far worse than you think."
Tsunade opened it and was stunned.
Entire fractured nations had already fallen under Orochimaru's control.
Even Amegakure was marked in red.
She looked up in confusion.
"Is there a difference here?"
Jiraiya sighed.
"Remember when I told you about the Akatsuki Organization?
Their headquarters was there—in Amegakure."
"But now they've declared allegiance to the Eternal Church."
"You mean that rebel group?"
"Yes. And their leader, Nagato—
the boy with the Rinnegan—
was once my disciple."
Tsunade's pupils shrank sharply.
Rinnegan. Tailed Beasts.
And now, a growing divine empire.
This...
was a disaster of unprecedented proportions.
