Max level Divinity: Summon Eastern Gods at the start of the game

"That's not how it works..."

When the lightning subsided, smoke rose from the Heavenly Gate, leaving not a trace of ash.

"He really died from being struck by lightning?"

I thought Su Ming was the chosen one, blessed by all the gods and Buddhas.

It turned out to be a joke.

Yui Aoi was also completely confused. Even though he was an enemy, she felt empty inside after he was struck by lightning and died.

"Valkyrie, as everyone has seen, the opposing summoner has been struck dead by lightning. We can announce the result now."

Sakura's official account inquired, but was met with a cold response from Valkyrie.

"As the referee said, no matter what, we must reserve ten minutes for him. Didn't you understand?"

The Valkyrie was rarely so impolite; she turned around and murmured to herself.

Is he really dead?

Even the Valkyrie couldn't see through it, because Su Ming's aura had completely disappeared.

……

"Phew, I almost died. Thank goodness, I'm still alive."

Su Ming pinched himself hard to confirm that it was real.

Just now, he was indeed struck by eighty-one bolts of heavenly lightning, but it only looked scary; in reality, it almost killed him.

Fortunately, there was a mysterious black hole that absorbed all eighty-one bolts of heavenly lightning, allowing him to escape unscathed.

Su Ming looked at the divine manual in his hand and smiled sheepishly: "I never thought you could be used as a cheat code."

Little did they know that on the second page, a name was flashing with lightning—Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable.

time does not wait.

Before Su Ming could think any further, he took a step and fell into the Chang'an Imperial Palace.

The Imperial Guard's young guard exclaimed in alarm, "It looks like something just fell down! Could it be an assassin? Boss, quickly order your men to stop him!"

Commander Shi glanced at the direction Su Ming had sped off in, then looked at the soldier: "Are you alright? That guy looks really strong. We're just trying to make a living, there's no need for us to risk our lives."

He then turned a blind eye, pretending he hadn't seen anything.

Su Ming used his qi to leap around the guards and appeared in the Hall of Longevity.

"Is this what it feels like to enter the palace alone? How hasty."

Unexpectedly, the next second, a token flew out from the gap, almost hitting Su Ming right in the wrong direction. Su Ming took a closer look and saw that it belonged to a young man with an extraordinary demeanor wearing an official hat.

"Who dares to trespass into the palace!" the young official said coldly, eighteen arrows poised to be fired in his hand.

The enemy had a clear objective, barging straight into the Hall of Longevity; they must have come for the Empress.

Su Ming froze for half a second, then saw Qi emanating from the other person.

Goodness, are Qi cultivators really that common in the mythological world?

Just as Su Ming was about to explain his purpose, a majestic voice came from deep within the palace: "Minister Di, let him in."

Upon hearing this, Di Renjie did not hesitate and immediately put away the decree in his hand, beginning to examine the strange man in front of him.

It looks like clothing from the Western Regions, but not quite.

It seems even more remote than the Western Regions.

Only after confirming that Su Ming had no weapons did Di Renjie take him inside.

The Hall of Longevity, the bedchamber of the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was accessible only to Di Renjie, a male minister, and a few dozen trusted maids.

Su Ming hadn't walked far when he saw a noble beauty in the bedchamber, wearing a phoenix crown and flowing robes. Even with her back to him, she exuded an aura of grandeur.

The aura of a superior was overwhelming, and Su Ming held his breath.

It's her, no doubt about it.

The only female emperor in history, the most powerful woman in the world.

It looks exactly like the image Li Bai remembered; at least the silhouette matches.

Su Ming pondered how to explain his purpose, but the Empress spoke first: "You came for Li Taibai, didn't you?"

As she spoke, she slowly turned around, revealing a stunningly beautiful and aloof face.

This is Empress Wu Qingyao of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Unlike the history of Su Ming's world, the empress of this parallel world, although also surnamed Wu, has no common ground with her except for her identity as empress.

They are completely different people and cannot be confused.

Furthermore, the wonder of the mythological world lies in its multiple dimensions of time and space.
