The Star-God Realm had seen many things—supernovas, the birth of galaxies, and the collapse of dimensions—but it had never seen a guest list quite like this.
Ten thousand Heavenly Emperors stood in rows, their azure resonance armor now polished to a blinding brilliance that rivaled the surrounding suns. At the altar, which was carved from a single block of Primordial Essence, stood the Star-God Emperor. He looked significantly less arrogant now, mostly because my disciple Xuan Lu was standing behind him, casually sharpening a sword that could cut through reality.
Lian Hua walked down the aisle of starlight. Her gown was no longer just silk; it was woven from the aurora of a thousand peaceful worlds. As she reached me, the icy frost that once defined her was gone, replaced by a glow that could only come from a woman who had found someone crazy enough to challenge the universe for her.
"You're late," she whispered, a smirk playing on her lips.
"The System had a coupon for 'Eternal Wedding Rings,'" I replied, sliding a band of condensed dark matter onto her finger. "I couldn't pass up the discount."
As we kissed, the 10,000 disciples released their Qi simultaneously. It wasn't a shockwave of destruction, but a symphony of creation. The stars above rearranged themselves into the shape of a massive, celestial pig—a final nod to our humble beginnings.

### The Genesis Sect: A New Foundation
With the wedding festivities concluded, I didn't settle for a quiet life. A Creator doesn't retire; a Creator expands. We traveled to the very center of the Star-God Realm, a void where no life could survive.
"Here," I said, pointing to the empty space. "We build the **Genesis Sect**."
I opened the System Shop, my points now effectively infinite. I purchased the *Architect of Reality* expansion pack. With a wave of my hand, the 10,000 disciples began to move. They didn't use hammers or saws; they used their Heavenly Emperor Wills to pull floating continents together, fusing them into a massive, multi-layered sanctuary that spanned the size of a solar system.
"Now for the final touch," I muttered.
**[Ding! Quest: 'A Home Fit for a God' Complete.]**
**[Reward: The Absolute Zenith Spiritual Vein (Highest Level).]**
Suddenly, the ground beneath us didn't just shake—it sang. From the heart of the new sect, a dragon made of iridescent, liquid light erupted. This wasn't just a Divine Vein; this was the **Absolute Zenith**.
It didn't just provide Qi. It *generated* laws. Around the vein, flowers bloomed that granted immortality with a single scent. Rivers flowed with liquid insight. The air became so thick with essence that a common mortal stepping onto the grounds would instantly ascend to the Foundation Establishment stage just by breathing.

### The New Recruitment: The Galaxy Scrambles
I turned to my five senior disciples. "The 10,000 are now the Elders. It's time for a new generation. Spread the word across the Star-God Realm and the Nine Heavens. We are recruiting. But this time..."
"Let me guess," Xuan Lu grinned. "Regardless of talent?"
"Exactly," I said, leaning back into my throne as Lian Hua sat beside me, her hand in mine. "But tell them the entrance exam involves peeling 50,000 potatoes. We need to keep them humble."
Within days, the gates of the Genesis Sect were besieged. This wasn't a flood of peasants; it was a flood of princes, fallen geniuses, and hidden masters from every corner of the multiverse. They had heard of the sect where pigs became emperors, and they wanted in.
**[Ding! New Mission: Train the New Generation to the 'World-Breaker' Realm.]**
**[Reward: Access to the Multiverse Travel Portal.]**
I looked out at the millions of hopefuls lining up at the base of our floating continent. I looked at my wife, my loyal disciples, and the shimmering light of the Zenith Vein.
"System," I thought, a mischievous glint in my eye. "How many healing pills do we have in stock? I think the first day of training is going to be a bit... intense."
The legend of the Mountain of Iron was over. The Era of the Genesis Sect had begun.
