Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!

If not for Big White, there was no way such “coincidences” could have occurred.

“To be honest, this young girl is quite nice. She has a good personality and seems very kind,” the 5-Element God King remarked, watching the girl’s departing figure.

Daniel glanced at the 5-Element God King and said, “She’s just a young girl. Besides, didn’t you just get married? If you miss your wife, you can always switch back. I can take care of your avatar.”

Hearing this, the 5-Element God King hurriedly shook his head.

“I… I think I’ll just stay here with you for a few more days. You know… to recover a bit,” he stammered. “And Daniel, let me be clear—I have no inappropriate thoughts about that girl. I was just making an observation.”

“By the way, 5-Element, you’ve had a wife before, haven’t you?” Daniel asked.

“Yes,” the 5-Element God King nodded. He had indeed had a wife. Otherwise, the younger generations in the 5-Element Temple wouldn’t exist.

“You’ve never mentioned it.”

“There’s not much to say about it. My first wife… that was nearly twenty thousand years ago. Back then, I was just an ordinary person, completely unaware of cultivation.

“Later, I somehow ended up taking a talent test. I performed well, and a faction recruited me. She was my senior sister. We had a deep bond,” he explained.

“But unfortunately, she passed away. She couldn’t break through and died of old age.”

This was the story of the 5-Element God King’s first marriage—a union both happy and tragic.

Her limited talent contrasted sharply with the 5-Element God King’s immense potential. Their differing lifespans created an unbridgeable chasm of life and death.

From that point on, the 5-Element God King seemed to seal those memories in his heart. He protected several generations of descendants before fading from their awareness. None of his descendants remembered they had such an ancestor.

The 5-Element God King’s second wife came into his life when he became a High God. The daughter of a powerful faction forcibly brought him into marriage.

At first, the 5-Element God King wasn’t very willing. Later… he embraced it.

The outcome, however, was similar to before. The 5-Element God King achieved godhood, but his wife stagnated at the God Sovereign level, unable to progress further.

The younger generations currently in the 5-Element Temple were mostly descendants of his second wife.

“I’ve kept all this to myself and never told anyone. Daniel, you’re the first to hear it,” the 5-Element God King confessed.

“And now? Have you let it go?” Daniel asked.

“Honestly, saying it out loud feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I think I’ve let it go,” the 5-Element God King said with a smile.

“Alright then. Let’s move on to the main task. It’s time to have a chat with the Greenwood God King,” Daniel said.

“Sure! But Daniel, the Greenwood God King is probably in the secret realm of the Greenwood Temple. Last time, I had Lomont helping me from the inside, and it still took a lot of effort to get in,” the 5-Element God King recalled.

Back then, he found it incredibly cumbersome. The Greenwood God King had turned his temple into a massive city and even resided within a secret realm. It was absurd.

In comparison, his own 5-Element Temple had only a simple magic array.

Hearing this, Daniel frowned. He had assumed finding the Greenwood God King would be straightforward, but it seemed unnecessarily complicated.

“What if we force him to come to us? Wouldn’t that be easier?” Daniel suggested, looking at the 5-Element God King.

That’s it! The 5-Element God King realized he had overlooked the obvious. Why bother figuring out how to enter the secret realm when they could just summon the Greenwood God King to meet them?

“You’re right! Let’s do that!” the 5-Element God King agreed.

Just then, Daniel paused, receiving a telepathic message from Big White.

The 5-Element God King waited silently for the outcome.

Daniel’s expression shifted subtly before he turned to the 5-Element God King and said, “Something’s come up on Big White’s end. Let’s head over there first.”

“Alright!”

Inside a lavishly decorated room:

“Why isn’t it working again? We had an agreement!” Yorton muttered, frowning. He dared not raise his voice, as they were now at someone else’s mercy.

Cyr, holding Big White, stood behind the old man.

In front of them sat a young man. After glancing at Yorton, the young man replied, “What can I do? This is the rule set by those above. Maybe the Greenwood God King himself decreed it. In any case, don’t expect the teleport array between the Greenwood God Realm and the 5-Element God Realm to open anytime soon.”

Yorton’s frown deepened. “When will the teleport array reopen, then?”

“That’s hard to say. Maybe it’s just a temporary precaution, and you can leave after a few days. But it could also take a month or two. We’ve never encountered something like this before,” the young man said.

“You’re deliberately making things difficult for us!” Yorton snapped, unable to hold back any longer. The young man’s attitude was clearly dismissive despite knowing the urgency of their situation.

“Watch your tone, Elder Yorton! This isn’t the Spirit Beast Sect, where you can boss people around,” the young man sneered.

He had once been a member of the Spirit Beast Sect but had left due to certain conflicts.

“The truth is, the higher-ups are under pressure. The Greenwood God King is furious over that whole ‘equality for all races’ thing promoted by the 5-Element God King. That’s what sparked the recent beast-fighting craze. So, trying to travel to the 5-Element God Realm right now? It’s going to be difficult,” the young man explained quietly.

However, he added, “I do know someone who manages the teleport magic array. If you please him, you might be able to sneak through. After all, not many from the Spirit Beast Sect would be traveling, so it shouldn’t cause too much trouble.”

“What do we need to do?” Yorton asked immediately. This was their only chance to reach the 5-Element God Realm, and he couldn’t let it slip away.

“The person in charge isn’t interested in money or women. Lately, he’s been obsessed with beast fights. Unfortunately, his chosen spirit beasts keep losing. If you can help him win a few matches, I’m sure he’ll help you,” the young man suggested, eyeing the bird perched on Cyr’s head.

He knew the Spirit Beast Sect’s sacred artifact was a bird like this one. Perhaps this bird had extraordinary combat capabilities. If it performed well in beast fights, it would be beneficial for everyone involved—and he would get his share as well.

Two-way deals like this weren’t new to him.

“What?!” Yorton immediately rejected the idea. There was no way he would agree to it.

Cyr’s bird wasn’t just any spirit beast; it was the Spirit Beast Sect’s Divine Bird! There was no way it could be used for something as degrading as beast fights.

Moreover, the Spirit Beast Sect had always been opposed to beast fighting. It was entirely against their principles.
