Swallowing the Starry Sky for Billions of Years

Chapter 792 A Billion Years (The Finale)

“Weapon refining is just like life genes, it involves recombination and composition... except that the components of weapon refining are more fixed.”

Dan Chan's clones have already refined ordinary supreme treasures, and it's only a matter of time before they refine high-grade supreme treasures as well.

Gunn muttered to himself, having spent three eras under the three-thousand-fold time acceleration, and had exhausted all the accumulated materials. Although he was still in human form, the multiplication of his life genes had reached 728 times, which was completely unimaginable before, truly breaking the law of one hundred times the limit of the universe.

'It's not so much a breaking down, but an addition; this is a transformation from the inside out, a fundamental shift.'

Special life forms typically have around 100 times the genetic potential, with the weakest having at least 10 times. Only a few life forms have over 500 times the genetic potential. 500 times is a threshold, but Gunn crossed it with ease.

With the source concealing his face, even if he relied solely on intensive cultivation, Gu En could easily break through a thousandfold and meet the requirements of a headless energy body. However, there was also a simpler method: collecting life materials with life genes exceeding a thousandfold, and summarizing and generalizing from living examples would make things much simpler.

However, some limitations of the Origin Mask also became apparent. Guen tried using the materials of Danchan clone. Although it could still be transformed into Danchan, not only was the innate secret technique weakened, but the transformation process would take about ten epochs. This was even with Guen's sufficient understanding of clones. The process of life gene transformation was also eliminated, and instead, it was anchored to Guen's own 728 times life gene.

Only life genes within 102 times the size can change at any time and at will, and the process from 0 to 102 is incredibly clear and complete.

That makes sense. Otherwise, with the source concealing its face, one could become whoever one wants. It's estimated that even the most extraordinary special life form would have an extremely long process, if not a failed transformation, and would only have an empty shell. It's hard to say that it could imitate the innate talent and secret techniques.

However, its effects were also extremely exaggerated, allowing Gunn to fully understand the essence of life genes and laying an incredibly solid foundation.

"Then take action."

Gunn glanced at the records and realized that only three eras had passed since the Genius Battle he presided over in the Primordial Universe. During that time, although he would show up occasionally, he rarely handled any affairs. However, there wasn't much to handle anyway, as he had the help of five Venerable beings, including Venerable Zihui, so he didn't need to. Gunn's Windwalk Universe Kingdom's defensive line was also gradually taking shape.

Baghdad has already realized its potential and doesn't need much attention anymore.

Youhou's situation went smoothly. Gu En set some thresholds for him: killing an immortal or even becoming a marquis during the realm lord period would reward him with treasures or secret techniques. Gu En would also occasionally answer Youhou's questions. This is how most powerful people guide geniuses, providing guidance and resources, but ultimately it still depends on personal cultivation.

However, there are not many life genes with more than five hundred times the strength in the universe. They are either treasured and protected by major powers, or deeply hidden, or they are powerful beings in themselves. The treasure trove in the Virtual Universe Company is not much either. The first thing Gunn did was to ask the Lord of Chaos City for it. Life materials at the level of the Lord of the Universe are also acceptable, as they are just as useful.

But that's still not enough. The most correct and simplest path for the life gene route is to have enough examples.

Therefore, Gu En sought out Gu Qiong Shenjiang. In terms of accumulating wealth and resources, he was number one among the Venerables of the Ancestral God Sect, and thus had exceptional popularity. Moreover, he was a member of the Ancestral God Sect. In the primordial universe, the Ancestral Mystic Realm possessed both the quality and quantity of special life forms. It contained many powerful special life forms, and even those who had not joined the Ancestral God Sect had extremely close ties with it. Gu Qiong Shenjiang was willing to help, and it would be simple to persuade those special life forms to contribute some life materials. However, the Shenjiang could be said to be without desires or wants; they were beings who had no further hope of advancement, so getting their help was not easy.

They obtained a Divine Power Stone, a unique long-distance communication method of the Ancestral God Sect. The Divine Power Stone contains a trace of the original owner's divine power. After communication, it dissipates directly. Normally, it should return to the origin of the universe, but the Ancestral God Sect has a way to make this wisp of divine power quickly return to the original body through the origin of the universe. Of course, it is only a wisp of divine power; no matter how much more there is, the will of the universe will not take care of it.

State your needs.

“No problem, it’s not a big deal.” Gu Qiong agreed readily. “However, this will leave me with a lot of favors, so there’s something I need your help with.”

"please say."

"Do you know the Azure Bell Goddess? She knows the trigger conditions for most treasures in treasure troves..."

Gunn never expected that the information he thought he had gotten a bargain would depreciate so quickly, it couldn't have been faster.

"We're both divine generals, how could you not know?" Gunn couldn't help but ask.

Gu Qiong Shenjiang shook his head: "It's different. The first generation of beings in the Ancestral God Sect were more open-minded and willing to put other beings on an equal footing. In other words, we, the later ones, are not as rich as they were."

Seeing that the witty and incoherent remarks of the Ancient Sky God General had caused the Ancient Dark Palace Master to have a slight emotional fluctuation, the Ancient Sky God General chuckled: "In the early days of the Ancestral God Sect, the Beast God and the Azure Bell God General were very popular. Many powerful figures would consult with them before putting treasures in, so they knew a lot. Of course, now the Azure Bell God General has a bad temper, and some information has been distorted, but the overall significance is still great. I just want to ask the Ancient Dark Palace Master to join me in killing a demon overlord so that I can retrieve the treasure and enjoy the feeling of being in the limelight."

Gu En used to think that the Ancient Sky God was a serious and majestic being, but now he sees that he is a very playful being.

They are even willing to do difficult things just to show off, but at their level, if they can't become stronger, they don't have many other pursuits. Being able to show off is enough for them.

“Killing the overlord of the demon race is no easy task,” Gu En said. “As far as I know, even if the conditions for the treasure trove are known, it may not be triggered. If it could be triggered, it would have been triggered long ago.”

"First, we need to know the conditions. Shooting arrows at a target is better than shooting randomly. As for the demon race, I have my own methods. When the time comes, all the treasures can be divided. Whoever puts in the most effort will get the lion's share. However, if you want materials for special life forms, then you'll have to be at the bottom of the list."

"There are other people? That's no problem."

"I also have some special life materials in my Ancient Sky Secret Realm, which I will give to you directly. If your Ancient Sky Divine Light were still here, you could have obtained them yourself. Then, we will meet again at the Ancestral God Church a hundred years from now." The divine power of the Ancient Sky Divine General dissipated directly.

“Choose a token.” Gunn glanced at them and selected one from the six Beast God Inheritance Tokens to use.

……

Gusts of wind, like giant pythons, howled and crisscrossed billions of square kilometers of space, as if they were truly alive, playing in the starry sky—but they were Black Tornado Whirlwinds.

"This is the Ancestral Mystic Realm." King Bahou stared intently at the starry sky.

Gunn gave him a Beast God Inheritance Token, which he was originally qualified to apply for from his clan. However, he made a different choice at the time, choosing the precious knowledge and inheritance of weapon crafting. Later, he was unable to break through for a long time, and when he applied for the Beast God Inheritance Token again, he was no longer in the category of "genius" and had no hope. But Gunn brought him hope.

King Bahou knew that this was because of Venerable Tanshi. He wanted to repay Venerable Tanshi, but Venerable Tanshi had nothing to lack, so the task fell to him, who had also taken care of Guen.

"Senior Brother, you're sure to succeed this time," Gu En said with a smile.

King Bahou did not correct him further. Gu En would just say that once he received the inheritance of the Beast God, he would soon break through to become a Venerable, and then they would be peers again, so there would be no difference.

I just watched with anticipation.

Suddenly, the peaceful void around them began to distort. King Bahou's expression changed slightly as he watched the distorted space engulf them both like a vortex.

Suddenly, everything vanished, and a colorful river surged and roared, possessing a fatal attraction that compelled people to stare at it without hesitation.

King Bahou quickly woke up and found that Gunn was looking in the other direction.

"So it's the Palace Master Gu Hui. No wonder you didn't sink in." A gentle voice rang out, and a sphere of life, engulfed in red and white flames, instantly appeared.

"Gentlemen, I am the guide of the Ancestral God Sect. Please produce the Beast God Inheritance Token. Trespassing on the sacred grounds of the Ancestral God Sect is a capital offense." The red and white sphere's life force was peaceful, but its aura was as intense as a star releasing all its heat.

Gunn and his companion produced their tokens.

"Humans, your foundation is truly profound. Sending two people at once is a rare feat, aside from the Northern Frontier Alliance in recent years." The crimson-white spherical life form led the two forward, surrounded by aurora borealis flowing like water. "The lake you see is the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, the most powerful treasure guarding the Ancestral Mystic Realm. I'll take you to Purple Thorn Island..."

Even though it was just a ray of aurora, Gunn felt it was more threatening than his own Myriad Rainbow Lake technique.

At the very center of that multicolored lake, which contains an incredibly terrifying power, lies an island, and no aurora borealis approaches from any direction.

Just as the three streaks of light flew into it, two lives flew towards them.

"Haha, Brother Gu Hui is indeed timely. General Bei Gong, I'll take care of the rest." General Gu Qiong and General Ting Bao flew over.

The Ancient Sky God General possesses a divine body spanning hundreds of kilometers. Originally an energy life form resembling mist, it transformed into a humanoid face to take care of Gu En. From afar, it appeared as a blurry, cyan-gold face flying towards them.

The Thunder and Hail God General, regardless of who inherits the title, will be enveloped in thunder and snow, with only a blurry figure inside. At this moment, he is also in a shrunken state. Otherwise, the thunder and snow around him alone would have a range and effect comparable to a domain, not just equal to Gu En. The special aura on his body even has a sense of great threat that one would feel when facing a master of the universe.

It's unclear how the Ancient Sky God General persuaded him. This current Thunder and Hail God General has less than a hundred epochs left. On the Primordial Star, many overlords avoid him, but as long as the Thunder and Hail God General is willing to take action, the success rate will at least double.

The red and white spheres said nothing and simply left.

"Come, come, let me introduce you to Purple Thorn Island. First, look up." Ancient Sky God General looked up, while King Bahou was already gazing at the sky with fascination.

Those endless rings of light and shadow, each ring composed of countless threads of law, not only contain individual laws of the universe's origin, but also laws of fusion, displaying all sorts of mysteries, their profundity even surpassing the primordial universe's firmament.

"This is the manifestation of the universe's rules. Our Ancestral God Cult is protected by the laws governing the universe's operation, and we also take the laws governing the universe's operation as our core. To defy the Ancestral God Cult is to defy the original will of the universe." The Ancient Sky God gently interrupted King Bahou, who was immersed in his thoughts. "Alright, let's build a place. You are King Bahou, right? You will probably be living here for a long time in the future. It's very spacious now, so you can choose any location you like. In the future, there may be hundreds of billions of inheritors living here. Right now, finding a good place to live is easy."

"By the way, Palace Master Gu Hui, you can leave your tokens and be teleported directly to your residences. You are inheritors, protected by the laws of the universe, and are completely safe. However, things like soul slaves are not protected by the laws of the universe, so don't take them out of the palace. Those auxiliary life forms, on the other hand, are fine."

The Ancient Sky God General quickly led Gu En and the other two on a tour, explaining the rules and various special features.

"Palace Master Gu Hui, why don't you accompany King Ba Hou to familiarize yourself with things first? We're not in a hurry." After Gu Qiong finished his introduction, he and Ting Bao waited in place. Ting Bao didn't say a word the whole time and seemed very impatient, so you could tell that the two of them were actually not in a hurry.

Unfortunately, Venerable Tanshi was receiving the inheritance, and coincidentally, Gu En accompanied King Bahou to build the palace, and they parted ways. King Bahou was very excited to enter the inheritance land, while Gu En had no particular thoughts. He had almost mastered teleportation and was about to complete the spacetime guidance. He simply regarded the Beast God Inheritance Token as a ticket and had no intention of receiving the inheritance. He and Gu Qiong God directly entered the secret realm.

……

"Our target is this Terrorclaw Overlord. He has no clones and is of sufficient importance. If we capture him, General Cangzhong will be pleased." General Guqiong released information about the Terrorclaw Overlord. "He is currently on Guishi Island. Now is not the time for the birth of a new Guishui, so he must have some kind of special plan. If we go, we might be able to disrupt his plan."

“Palace Master Gu Hui, you control the interference, while General Ting Bao makes the move and I'll hold the line. If the two of you can defeat the Terror Claw Overlord, I won't intervene and will take a smaller share of the treasure. How about that?”

"I don't need the treasure, as long as you agree to what I asked for."

"Having done this, I will also be hated by the demon race. I will definitely stay obediently in the Ancient Sky Secret Realm, so you can rest assured, Thunderbolt God General."

Gunn simply watched from the sidelines, feeling a slight pity for the Devilclaw Overlord. With the three of them attacking, the Devilclaw Overlord would have little chance of escaping.

Gui Stone Island nurtures a special resource: Gui Water, which can instantly repair the bodies of many Venerable Gods. Only one drop is produced every thousand epochs. Every time it is produced, it will cause a bloodbath, but at other times, few lives visit it.

With each teleportation, the three quickly arrived at Guishi Island. From a distance, it looked like an island floating above the forest, resembling an ocean, with a continuous curtain of water cascading down from it.

"Let me do it."

Gu En, riding the Eight Universes Palace and opening the Myriad Rainbow Lake, directly stormed into Gui Stone Island, sweeping across with unrestrained divine power, hoping to attract the attention of the Terrorclaw Overlord. During this sweep, three beings within range immediately discovered the Terrorclaw Overlord on Gui Stone Island. He was standing in front of a lake in a stone cave at the deepest part of Gui Stone Island, where extremely powerful ferocious creatures roamed. Their brute force alone was already close to that of a Universe Lord. Even after a lifetime of nurturing by Gui Water, few non-Universe Lords would dare to venture there.

"I am the Lord of the Ancient Palace. You are irrelevant people. Leave immediately."

Guen's voice echoed through the domain, and the other two Venerable Ones immediately changed their expressions.

“Palace Master Gu Hui, I know nothing. I just happened to be passing by.”

"My teacher is the Lord of the Star River. No matter what happens, please believe me, it has nothing to do with me."

The two Venerable Ones reacted quickly, and realizing that the domain had no intention of hindering them, they immediately broke free.

The Dreadclaw Overlord, who was crouching in front of a pure blue water wall, immediately changed color. He didn't know what Gunn was doing here, but such a provocative attitude made him realize that something bad was going to happen. However, he looked at the pure blue water wall in front of him with great resentment. Inside it was a top-level treasure that was not fluctuating at all and was about to be born. It was a top-level treasure that made the surroundings completely calm and without any special features. It was very likely that it was a domain-type treasure!

He had originally come with his teacher to exchange some secret techniques with a certain beast god, entirely for the sake of his breakthrough. After the exchange, his teacher and the beast god discussed the Dao, but he felt somewhat frustrated. So he wandered around the secret realm. Recently, there had been a lot of talk within his clan about how the Ancient Palace Master Gu Hui was trying to put him down. People were saying that he lacked strategy and was arrogant and greedy, which led to an ambush turning into the Ancient Palace Master Gu Hui's battle for fame. This made him extremely depressed, and he planned to find some tough and ferocious creatures to vent his anger on. The ferocious creatures on Guishi Island would be perfect, but by some strange twist of fate, he discovered this treasure.

'I was so greedy; I should have informed the clan sooner.'

The Terrorclaw Overlord sensed something was wrong. The Ancient Palace Master wouldn't come looking for him for no reason. His lure for the top-tier domain treasure had extinguished his desire, so he hurriedly notified his teacher.

'Great Slaughter Without Form'

The faint sound of the copper bells traveled through the air, and wherever the sound reached, absolute silence instantly descended. Those ferocious creatures comparable to Venerable Ones were instantly annihilated.

Seeing that the Terrorclaw Overlord showed no intention of moving, Gunn burned his divine power and directly used the Soul Secret Technique. Although it was not as powerful as the Star River Technique, it was enough to comprehend the life genes and learn such a specialized ultimate technique for destroying souls.

"Ok?"

The Terrorclaw Overlord sensed something was wrong. Layers of invisible power were constantly eroding his divine body. This time, he couldn't completely resist. Through his defenses, his divine body was actually damaged, with each injury exceeding 0.3%. The Terrorclaw Overlord panicked a bit. This wasn't even Gu En's strongest move, yet he already felt a sense of danger. However, the thought that his teacher was also in the Ancestral God Cult reassured him. He only needed to hold out until his teacher arrived. At that time, it would be the Palace Master Gu Hui who would have to escape. Simply defending against this long-range soul attack wouldn't be able to kill him in a short time. The Terrorclaw Overlord was also afraid, fearing that Palace Master Gu Hui had another ambush.

“He won’t come out.” Gunn shook his head helplessly at the Ancient Sky God General.

"I'm afraid he has reinforcements." Gu Qiong Shenjiang hesitated. The one who could make the Terror Claw Overlord hold out and not flee must be a very powerful being. Is it Lord Meng Wan or Overlord Gu Xue?

Thunderbolt God General glanced at Ancient Sky God General: "I'll try it once, twenty seconds."

"Then I'll leave it to you," said the Ancient Sky General hastily. "Whether it succeeds or not, I will keep my promise to you."

Thunderbolt God nodded and flew straight towards the depths of Gui Stone Island: "Palace Master Gu Hui, give me his location."

"Forget it, let's give it a shot." After thinking for a moment, Gu Qiong also flew in. At the same time, he secretly made contact and prepared a backup plan. Originally, it was all Gu En's business if he didn't show himself, but doing so would undoubtedly offend this rising star. You should know that Gu En has only been cultivating the Primordial Universe for a little over a thousand epochs. If what was originally mutual assistance turned into dissatisfaction with Gu En, it would be equivalent to offending him, which is not worth it.

Just then, the Thunder and Hail God General suddenly stopped, his expression changed drastically, and he fully activated the surrounding Thunder and Frost Domain, anxiously transmitting his voice: "A Lord of the Universe is here, come to me quickly!"

Before he could finish transmitting his voice, Gunn had already set up the Eight Universes Palace and was flying towards Thunder and Hail God General. He wanted to be the first to sense that the surrounding spacetime was solidifying at an exaggerated speed. The space blockade of the Universe Venerable was like a lump of mud, but now it was as solid as reinforced concrete. Fortunately, the three of them were very close. Gunn opened the Eight Universes Palace: "Come in quickly!"

We were on guard before, but now, at a time like this, how can we control things?

Thunderbolt God General and Ancient Sky God General entered the Eight Universes Palace, but before they could do anything, a pillar of heaven swept down from the sky with overwhelming force, sweeping away everything, including the Myriad Rainbow Lake and the Thunder and Frost Domain. Even the Eight Universes Palace was violently thrown out, then immediately came to a stop. A terrifying, sky-covering claw descended upon them.

"what!!!"

The Thunderbolt God General roared, his divine power igniting, and his entire divine body emanated a terrifying aura. A sacred and solemn aura gradually permeated the Thunderbolt God General, bringing with it an unbelievable scene—

The black and white spacetime rotated, like two intertwined serpents of law. With a single twist, spacetime shattered, and everything around it was strangled again and again. The claw seemed to have touched something painful and quickly withdrew.

"A flying palace and a crippled god general? It seems I need to get a little serious."

A gigantic, pure white bird flew over from the distant horizon in an instant, enveloped in a five-colored divine light. The attack just now was actually made by this Lord of the Universe from afar!

"It's the Lord of the Azure Ducks! The teacher of the Terrorclaw Overlord!"

"That's why he's so fast, because he's in the Ancestral God Sect!"

Gu En and Gu Qiong Shenjiang exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of foreboding. They could only place their hopes on Ting Bao Shenjiang, who, despite being called overlords, seemed so vulnerable in the face of the Lord of the Universe.

"kill!"

Thunderbolt God briefly separated the two black and white serpents, then attacked the Azure Duck Lord with a fierce attack. Wherever they went, space and time shattered, and everything became chaotic. The Azure Duck Lord also dodged slightly with some apprehension: "Child's play. Thunderbolt God has experience fighting against Universe Lords, but those were only first-order Universe Lords, which only existed in the early stages of the universe. Moreover, their understanding of the laws was far superior to yours. These two Fiend Reincarnation Serpents that you control are like two insects."

The Lord of Cangyang chuckled, and a fan with only its skeleton emitting a chilling green light appeared. With a wave of his hand, the entire space-time darkened, and patches of green light, like a forest of waves, instantly engulfed the area around Guishi Island. Like poison, it caused green spots to appear on the two black and white snakes, which quickly dissolved and disintegrated. Even the surface of the Eight Universe Palace, which was not the main target, rusted rapidly.

“What kind of skill is it to bully the younger generation?”

A black vortex appeared, swallowing a large amount of green light. A black-robed being, with his back to the Eight Universes Palace, waved his hand and blocked the green light that the Thunder and Hail God General could hardly withstand.

"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, are you going to oppose me?" The Lord of Cangyang's face darkened.

Inside the Eight Universes Palace, the Ancient Sky God General let out a long breath: "As expected, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds once owed me a promise. I didn't want to use it, but at this time, I can only ask the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, whose home is in the secret realm, for help."

Gu En and Thunderbolt God were pleasantly surprised, but they couldn't help but glance at him sideways. To make a universe lord owe a promise, Gu Qiong God was indeed a ruthless person.

The black-robed being, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, glanced at him coldly: "This is the Ancestral God Sect. It is only right that I protect the inheritors of my sect. It is you who are going against me."

"My disciple is being attacked, so it is only right for me, as his teacher, to intervene." The Lord of Cangyang did not back down at all.

"Your brother..."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds cast his gaze into the depths of Gui Stone Island, where he saw the Terror Claw Overlord and the pure blue wall of water.

Upon noticing the unusual reaction of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, the Lord of the Azure Ducks panicked and quickly sent a telepathic message to the Overlord of the Fear Claws: "You haven't put away that supreme treasure yet?"

"Teacher, it's too heavy. It's almost finished developing and connected to the entire Guishi Island. I can't move it," the Terrorclaw Overlord replied after a moment.

"Didn't you say that you had already succeeded and told me to kill that human genius first?"

The Lord of Cangyang was enraged for the first time, his voice as cold and emotionless as ice.

There was no reply. The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds had already discovered this and was struggling to lift the entire Gui Stone Island. Although the treasure was still being nurtured, it was unwise to move Gui Stone Island now. However, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds had already sensed the rapid approach of another universe lord.

"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, that thing does not belong to you. Leave now, and we can pretend nothing happened."

Flames the size of stars transformed into the shape of wolves, lunging at the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds and tearing off a portion of his divine power in one bite.

Surrounded by flames, the all-black Lord of the Heavenly Wolf also revealed his presence. At the same time, he unleashed his divine power, and a pure white mist spread out. The flames crashed into the mist, and as the mist dispersed, it was also tinged with a layer of glass-like firelight. The immense pressure made the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' movements extremely slow and heavy.

field!

The Lord of Sirius was able to suppress him with his domain treasure, which further strengthened the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' resolve. At the same time, the Lord of the Azure Duck surrounded him from another direction.

Fighting two opponents alone, especially with his domain suppressing him, was indeed difficult. Continuing this entanglement would be very troublesome. It was still too far from his lair, the Nine Nether Space-Time. If he could teleport, it would be much faster, but with the domain suppressing him, he could only grit his teeth and fly. At the same time, the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf used his domain to control space-time and suddenly threw out a strange stone. This stone changed its shape tens of thousands of times in an instant while flying through the air. No matter how the Lord of the Nine Nether Space dodged, the stone hit him precisely. The stone shattered instantly and directly invaded the Lord of the Nine Nether Space's divine body.

"bang"

In an instant, the aura of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds weakened considerably.

"Dream Demon Ancestor, you actually gave him even this treasure?" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds couldn't believe it.

The Dream Demon Ancestor once obtained a very peculiar consumable from the Cosmic Ship, a kind of ever-changing strange stone that could hit anyone with a single throw. Unless one had extremely strong defensive capabilities, even a top-tier Cosmic Lord would be injured. However, the quantity was very small, not enough for everyone to have one, otherwise the Cosmic Lords of the Demon Race would be even more arrogant. The Dream Demon Ancestor actually valued the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf so much.
"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, hand over the item, and we might let you leave. Otherwise, be prepared to pay the price." The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf's voice resounded throughout the domain, and at the same time, a constantly changing stone reappeared in his hand.

This angered the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, who was preparing to find a way to deal with the situation. He had been promised the position of Protector God by the Ancestral God Sect. The Protector Gods of the Ancestral God Sect were all extremely powerful universe lords. The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds was still a step away from that, but his potential was extremely outstanding. In particular, the higher-ups of the Ancestral God Sect knew the true background of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds. They were just waiting for his clone to reach the required combat power or for him to reveal himself. Otherwise, the identity of the Protector God would not be made public for the time being. However, within the Ancestral God Sect, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds was treated according to the standards of a Protector God.

But now he is being threatened by alien forces within the Ancestral God Sect?

"You're threatening me?" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds still managed to control his anger.

"I'm just trying to reason with you," said the Lord of the Azure Ducks. "Hand over the treasure, and my disciple will be safe, and I can guarantee your safety. Otherwise, you and your children..."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' expression grew cold: "Are you threatening me?"

"Just telling the truth." The Lord of Cangyang secretly launched an attack, and a bit of green poison gas quietly stained the Lord of Jiuyou.

One against two, and then ambushed and injured first, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' situation became complicated.

"Whose flying palace? Give me control." After a brief moment of thought, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds made his demands directly.

Gu En directly relinquished control of the Eight Universes Palace. The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds seized control of the Eight Universes Palace and immediately unleashed astonishing speed. The surrounding glazed fire scorched the Eight Universes Palace, instantly turning it a fiery red. Seeing the situation was dire, the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf hurriedly ordered the Lord of the Azure Ducks to attack, but the Eight Universes Palace managed to defend against each attack. Instead, the surface of the Eight Universes Palace gradually became pitted and uneven, but judging from this, it could hold out for a long time.

"Tianlang, use that treasure one more time." The Lord of Cangyang couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw this. "It would be bad if the other cosmic lords of the Ancestral God Sect came."

The Lord of Sirius snorted coldly: "That treasure is only effective on divine bodies, otherwise why would I waste it on a Lord of the Nine Netherworlds who couldn't even penetrate the flying palace?"

There was a pause.

"What are you afraid of? If you need help, this is the Ancestral God Sect. The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds would have arrived long ago if he had asked for a favor." The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf said discontentedly, "Since he insists on being arrogant, even if we have to go to the Nine Netherworlds, we will make him hand over the treasure!"

The Lord of the Azure Ducks glanced into the distance. The battle between the Lords of the Universe had already alerted other powerful figures. Some alien Lords of the Universe had already appeared, but they remained at the edge, observing and probing.

Anyone can join the Ancestral God Cult as long as they possess the Inheritance Token and don't act recklessly.

"Then use a soul attack. Flying palaces are only moderately effective at weakening soul attacks. We need to make the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds suffer before he realizes the danger."

As the two piloted their domains, the Eight Universe Palace, though flying fast, was still subjected to repeated attacks. As a result, the surface of the Eight Universe Palace suffered more and more damage. After all, it was being attacked by two universe lords burning their divine power. It was just an ordinary treasure flying palace. It could hold on, but it was impossible for it to remain unscathed. Some attacks even began to penetrate the Eight Universe Palace and affect its interior.

Seeing this, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds could only protect the three little ones. He could still withstand it, but the others, except for the Thunder and Hail God General, might be beaten to death here. However, his gaze grew colder and colder. He only wanted to hone himself so that he could become the top universe lord without using that move. But the truth is, when the difference in strength between him and others is not significant, others often do not know what respect is.

'The ancestral god is right; my special nature means I shouldn't have followed the established path.'

Once he made up his mind, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds understood everything.

As they drew closer to the Nine Netherworld, the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf and the Lord of the Azure Duck grew increasingly anxious: "Lord of the Nine Netherworld, do you wish to return to your homeland? It's not too late to hand over the treasures and the Terror Claw Overlord now."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds merely unleashed the Terrorclaw Overlord, and then, under the Lord of the Azure Duck's furious gaze, the Terrorclaw Overlord was annihilated into ashes inch by inch.

"Good! Good! Good!"

The Lord of the Azure Ducks stopped speaking, but used his precious fan even more frequently.

A vast ocean appeared before him, its colors shifting endlessly. In the eyes of the Lord of the Azure Ducks, he could even see some blood energy floating upwards.

The Nine Nether Sea is now before us.

Suddenly, the Lord of Sirius appeared in a corner of the Eight Universes Palace. His claws, flashing with black and green light, ripped open, creating a crack that extended halfway through the palace. Then, the Lord of Sirius vanished instantly, and a black beam of light shot out from the palace, piercing through everything in its path. Even the domain was blasted open, and everything that passed through it was shattered and annihilated. Even the universe could not repair it within dozens of epochs.

Despite the astonishing results, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds also arrived in the Nine Netherworld Space-Time, riding the Eight Universes Palace and disappearing into the seemingly endless ocean of ever-changing colors. Even the two demon race universe lords, despite using their abilities, could not see clearly how he disappeared from their sight; he vanished without a trace in an instant.

"He still managed to escape back to his lair." Lord Sirius lamented, "It truly lives up to its reputation as a flying palace. We attacked it time and time again, and only now have we found a weak point."

"The Nine Nether Sea is his lair. Although it is very large, he has also suffered serious injuries. You use your domain to suppress him and guard the top. I will go down and force him to come out. Once he shows his face, don't hesitate to attack him." The Lord of Cangyang instructed, glancing at the blurry figure of the alien universe lord not far away. "Also, be wary of them."

The Lord of Sirius held the peculiar stone in his hand and nodded.

The Lord of the Azure Duck flew down and plunged directly into the Nine Nether Sea.

Even the lords of the universe in the distance began to discuss it.

"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, it seems you have obtained some extraordinary treasure."

"There are only two demon race universe lords, Heart Piercer, should we join forces?"

"Let's see what trump cards the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds has."

"I hope the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds can consume more of the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf's treasures. I think he still has some left."

The lords of the universe don't have much free time, but they are very patient. They are observing, naturally waiting for an opportunity.

"Humph."

Suddenly, the voice of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds rang out. Just as the Lord of Sirius was about to search for the source of the voice, he witnessed an unbelievable scene: the entire Nine Netherworld Sea was boiling and burning! The terrifying aftershocks of divine power surged through the Lord of Sirius's domain, twisting and burning his glazed fire. An incomparably terrifying power erupted. The Lord of Sirius seemed to see the aurora of the Five-Colored Aurora Lake. He could no longer hold back and took out a flying palace completely formed of flames. This was the harvest of the Dream Demon Ancestor on the Primordial Star. It gave the Lord of Sirius an opportunity. The Lord of Sirius immediately took out most of his treasures and gathered enough wealth to exchange for it. This was also the first time he had used it in front of everyone. He was also thinking of taking advantage of the information gap.

This is a supreme treasure of a high-level flying palace, the master of the universe. There is basically no possibility of breaking it. It's just that in the previous chase, taking out the flying palace for defense was of little help, so we held back.

"Lord of the Azure Ducks, return!"

The Lord of Sirius called out the name of the Lord of Azure Duck, but all that met him was a giant hand formed from endless seawater, carrying incomparably terrifying power. The Lord of Sirius's expression changed drastically. If he were grabbed by that giant hand, even if his flying palace could resist, he would probably be dragged into the Nine Nether Sea.

"pity."

The phantom of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds formed above the Sea of ​​the Nine Netherworlds, whose divine power gradually extinguished. The Lord of the Heavenly Wolf had already fled to the horizon, merely observing. Suddenly, a "Lord of the Nine Netherworlds" appeared from the surrounding space-time. The first instant he appeared—

"boom--"

The palace of the Lord of Sirius was also blasted towards the Nine Nether Sea by the sudden explosion, and in the blink of an eye it was tens of millions of kilometers away. The Lord of Sirius was so frightened that he did not dare to leave any harsh words and hurriedly piloted the flying palace Peach Blossom.

"I never imagined that the Nine Nether Sea was the true form of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds?!"

“That’s right, I saw divine power burning, and the aura was exactly the same as that of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.”

"My God, how enormous must that be?"

All the lords of the universe retreated one after another.

"Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, we have no ill intentions, we are just curious, and we have nothing to do with the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf."

The Lord of the Universe, realizing what was happening, immediately alerted the others with the phrase "We await."

"Yes, yes, Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, let's go now."

"Remember, anyone who dares to threaten me, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, will pay the price." The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds did not stop them.

"understand."

Lords of the universe, hurry and leave.

Only then did the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds take out the Eight Universes Palace, and the huge crack there was shocking.

"Lord of the Ancient Palace? Your treasure has been destroyed by me. Do you want to try to repair it, or do you want a brand new flying palace of equal value?" the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds asked.

Gu En's expression was one of shock. The entire Nine Nether Sea was the divine body of the Lord of the Nine Nether? It was truly astonishing.

“Junior, congratulations to the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds on acquiring the treasure.” Gu En did not reply immediately.

Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds revealed a smile, seemingly implying something: "You humans, you're always so clear-headed at crucial moments... Fine, I won't lie to you. I will compensate you for the treasure. I also owe you some of the favors you three have done for me. If it weren't for you, this treasure would not be mine. I'll remember that."

The three of them immediately beamed with joy; this was exactly the promise they wanted.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds waved his hand, sending them to the edge of the Nine Netherworld Sea: "It's just a treasure, don't think too highly of it. Weigh it yourself, and come find me in the Nine Netherworld Sea when you've made up your mind."

After saying this, the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds disappeared.

"Thank you, Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."

Gu En's smile was genuine. He had even returned the Eight Palaces and the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds. He had lost one flying palace, but gained another flying palace and the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds' promise. He had made a huge profit!

Thunderbolt God General had no intention of leaving: "Gentlemen, it is my honor to witness this incredible scene with you. However, I don't have much time. I have something to ask of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds now. I will not participate in the rest."

Gu Qiong Divine General hurriedly said, "What I promised you will still be valid. After communicating with Cang Zhong Divine General, if I obtain any information, I will also give you a copy."

Thunder and Hail God nodded and flew towards the Nine Nether Sea.

Gu Qiong and Gu En flew outwards: "Ting Bao God General only came this far to protect his clan. He was afraid that after his death, his clan would only have one Universe Venerable. Fortunately, he met the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds. The World Tree dared to reproduce in the Nine Netherworld space-time. Perhaps the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds has his eye on this kind of life that takes care of the clan."

They were inside the Eight Universes Palace and could sense that something had changed after the Lord of the Azure Ducks threatened the child of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds. They had never heard of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds having such an incredible true form; this was probably a trump card that had now been exposed.

As for the Lord of the Azure Ducks, he voluntarily jumped into the Nine Nether Sea and has not been seen since. The Lord of the Azure Ducks does not have a clone, so the outcome seems to have been predetermined.

"Palace Master Gu Hui, you don't seem very happy," Gu Qiong asked, puzzled.

Gunn forced a smile: "I am saddened that although I am famous throughout the universe, I am just a frog at the bottom of a well. Today, I am just a floating leaf in the sea, unable to withstand even the slightest wave. After the joy comes the sorrow."

"Tsk."

Gu Qiong Shenjiang said nothing, and was not even affected. He had long since let it go. Otherwise, he would not have come to find the Terror Claw Overlord for such an absurd reason, which led to this series of events. His purpose in going to find Cang Zhong Shenjiang was not even purely for the treasures in the treasure land, but for the commotion when the treasures were born, to show off. It was not a dazzling achievement.

Gu En gazed towards the direction of the Nine Nether Sea: "This is how life in the universe should be!"

Gunn's eyes shone brightly.

"I won't be going to see General Cangzhong, but I'll have to trouble General Guqiong to go and collect the materials." Gu En changed the subject.

Gu Qiong God General smiled and said, "Hey, that's right. Let's go. In the Ancestral Mystic Realm, who wouldn't give me face?"

Gu En believed it; the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, whom he had summoned, was still right before his eyes.

……

It is popular throughout the universe.

The headless energy entity looked at Gunn in surprise. Although he had only been gone for a few decades, Gunn was now exuding a completely different kind of power.

"Not bad, you've finally shown some fighting spirit." The headless energy body circled around Gunn once, and Gunn accepted it calmly. Having witnessed the scene of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds burning his divine power, his will underwent another transformation, finally surpassing the limit of the universe overlord. Even he himself found it somewhat unbelievable, feeling that it was all too natural. "I saw you were quite lazy before."

Gunn was taken aback, then pointed at himself: "I'm lazy? I've never stopped cultivating."

"Effort doesn't equate to conviction." The headless energy entity's words shocked Gunn once again. "You may be diligent, but you lack heart, you lack that conviction that you must do something. As you are, you are destined to never become a true powerhouse. Your cultivation speed is fast, but let me tell you, of all the geniuses I've ever seen, your willpower is the worst!"
"God Lord, you've only just reached the combat power of a Universe Overlord, yet you already possess the willpower of a mid-level Universe Lord. After becoming a Universe Lord, you'll have the willpower of the strongest being in the universe. And you? You had the combat power of a Universe Overlord first, and then the willpower. It's ridiculous. It shows that you, Gu En, have no heart. You've had it too easy and have never encountered a true head-on confrontation. I have no doubt that if you met a God Lord of the same era and realm, you would be utterly defeated. You wouldn't even be a match for someone like the Chaos City Lord."

Gunn fell silent after hearing what he said. When was the last time he risked his life so recklessly? It could be traced back to when the Lan Clan seized his clone; before that, it was probably when he encountered the Flame Star Beast and was almost killed; in the Fran Sea, he was truly walking on the edge of danger; and the Aoxing Empire, because of its arrogance, even knowing that the empire's people were going to ambush him, still went to sea...

And then there's this recent life-or-death crisis. Strictly speaking, these are the five times he's faced such dire situations on his own. In fact, the number of such situations could be halved.

“Senior brother is also very capable,” Gu En said.

“Yes, but what I need is a master, at the very least, a god-level being. After all, you are the most likely second life form in this universe in my opinion, so I am very happy to see that you have finally shown fighting spirit,” the headless energy entity said earnestly.

“I’m almost done. My life gene multiplier has reached 900 times. I’m using the method of controlling the changes in the life gene multiplier to study weapon crafting. Soon, I will be able to craft high-grade treasures. I think I can also craft flying palaces and soul-type treasures,” Gunn said.

The headless energy entity nodded: "It is only natural. After all, when you can create something from nothing and develop 102 to 103 times the life genes on your own, it means you are destined to have this potential. The way to grow by combining the methods of treasure refining and divine power is exactly the kind of successor we need. However, I must also remind you that the true place of inheritance is in the Cosmic Sea. As long as you pass the test, you will be directly teleported there."

The primordial will of the universe, though it once again focused its attention on the headless energy entity, did not stop it from continuing.

"In the same universe, only one life can receive this inheritance. Only after the God Lord died did you have the opportunity. It is an extremely powerful and terrifying inheritance. With your current strength of will, you can become the strongest in the universe after receiving the inheritance. I estimate that it will take ten trillion epochs."

"Ten trillion epochs?" Gunn's eyes widened. "How much time has the primordial universe actually been in? Even the God-King couldn't have spent that much time, could he?"

The headless energy entity revealed a hint of nostalgia: "He was different, truly amazing. He completed his first inheritance in just over a trillion epochs. You are different too."

Gunn was silenced again by the headless energy entity.

“During this period, you will not be able to return. Although you have an avatar, I must remind you that this is an extremely special inheritance. At that time, your avatar will also frequently fall into slumber because you lose mental synchronization. So, once you leave, you may have to say goodbye to the primordial universe. The next time you can return, it will definitely be in the later or even the final stage of the primordial universe. Make your own choice. I don’t want a master who is unwilling.” The headless energy entity said solemnly.

“I understand. I will come looking for you in a hundred epochs at most,” Gunn said.

The headless energy entity understood that Gu En would definitely meet the requirements of a Universe Venerable by then, so it returned directly to Jiehai Tower: "Refining treasures is different. You can have your clone refine it first, which can save a lot of time."

Gunn, on the other hand, looked towards the universe.

Brilliance and darkness coexist, how beautiful.

But the primordial universe will eventually end everything. He once let his parents leave him. When that moment comes, will he still hope that others will help him protect everything he cherishes?

Could a headless energy being lie?

may.

But his ability to make treasures perform beyond their original effects, and his extensive knowledge of weapon crafting, were undeniable, so Guen chose to trust him.

"I want to become stronger, so that I can protect myself."

Gunn walked into the depths of the starry sky.

……

In Chaos City, the City Lord was still deeply shocked after hearing Gu En's information about the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds. However, he also noticed that Gu En was somewhat different from usual.

"Were you provoked?"

“Yes.” Gunn nodded. “Senior brother, you should know that I have the inheritance of the God Lord.”

The Lord of Chaos City simply listened.

"It's special; it can send me directly to somewhere in the cosmic sea. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a very long time..."

"No!" The Chaos City Lord interrupted directly, but when he met Gu En's eyes, he felt that there was nothing more to say. However, he still couldn't help but say, "The Cosmic Sea is too dangerous. The Primordial Universe, whatever it is, whatever it is, I can accept it. But how can you bear the Cosmic Sea? Unless you break through and become the Lord of the Universe first."

“Becoming the Lord of the Universe is too late, Senior Brother. You should know that the God Lord disappeared for a trillion epochs. I have thought about it and made a judgment. I will pursue him unless you lock me in the primordial universe.” Gunn said decisively.

For a fleeting moment, the Lord of Chaos City truly considered doing so.

"At that time, becoming a cosmic sovereign was very prestigious. The God Lord suddenly disappeared for a long time, and everyone thought he had perished. Who knew that when he returned, he would rule the core area."

The Lord of Chaos City seemed to be recalling something, and the next second, his expression became much more solemn: "Be careful, you are my junior brother. If something happens to you, I will be sad."

The simple language made Gunn involuntarily hum in agreement.

“Senior brother, I have divided the treasure points in the treasure vault into several parts. I have sent you the detailed list via email. I have chosen to reserve the largest part for my disciple Youhou. He is very different. I trust my intuition. However, I do not have time to teach him. He has a strong desire to kill. I left him in the outer universe, hoping that he would control his bloodlust, but the effect was not ideal. I hope that senior brother can help me find a better teacher. I have indeed been somewhat irresponsible,” Gu En said.

"And the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds owes me a favor. It's not a huge one, but you can just take it when you need it, Senior Brother."

When Gu En's apparent entrustment of his son to someone else created a somber atmosphere, the Lord of Chaos City smiled and said, "I am your senior brother. I saved his life."

Gunn was taken aback, exchanged a glance with the Lord of Chaos City, and the two burst into laughter.

……

An endless land of blood.

The Azure Bell God General had been waiting for a long time, and excitedly embraced the Ancient Sky God General who had been teleported over: "Well done, well done!"

The Ancient Sky God was startled. Perhaps sensing the Ancient Sky God's tension, the Azure Bell God released him and laughed wildly: "Lord of Azure Duck, hahahaha, you've finally met your match, hahaha, great, great! Here, take it all. I knew you would come, so I'm giving it to you. Take it, take it!"

The Goddess Cangzhong tossed him a rubbing containing all the information she knew about the treasure trove: "The Ancestral Gods later added even more treasures, and they were even better. I don't know how many are accurate. You'll have to try it yourself! You've done a great job!"

The Cangzhong God General laughed wildly, tears streaming down his face, but the expression on his face horrified the Guqiong God General. The Cangzhong God General simply opened his mouth wide, as if performing some kind of ritual. There was no trace of laughter in his eyes, only madness and even greater madness. His entire body trembled with excitement, and even terrifying cracks appeared, from which majestic divine power even emanated.

This is a divine general!
A divine general who is far superior to ordinary overlords and holds a position of honor!
Even her divine body couldn't control it anymore. Gu Qiong God General silently cupped her hands in farewell and left. Perhaps a trillion epochs earlier, Cang Zhong God General wouldn't have acted like this. She had been grieving and in despair for far too long.

After leaving Cangzhong Divine General's territory, Guqiong Divine General breathed a sigh of relief and muttered as he left: "I need to make Gu Hui Palace Master and Tingbao Divine General compensate me with resources. It was too terrifying."

……

"You've made me search for you for ages."

Gunn never expected to find Chen in the territory of the Thorn Ring Alliance. It took three eras to find this guy who had been away from human territory for so long.

"Why did you shut down your virtual universe account?"

Chen, whose memory was still stuck when Gu En was a king, paused for a moment, then got up from the hot spring. As a marquis, he was very carefree and didn't think it made much difference. A unicorn followed beside him: "Back then, I left all the money to the people of Tucha Star. Later, I was too engrossed in cultivation. By the time it was over, all the money in my card had been deducted, and I couldn't even go up anymore."

"You called me because there's good news?"

“There is good news. I can’t save your unicorn, but I have a way to help its offspring be born. Do you want to come back with me?” Gu En’s words left Chen stunned.

……

In the Fengxing Universe Kingdom, Gu En commanded five Universe Venerables to accompany him in refining artifacts. Using the Universe Secret Realm as a base, they incorporated countless precious materials. Even Venerable Zihui and others were amazed by what they saw.

"From now on, all life forms from the sixteen universes can come here. There are 100,000 trials set up inside, including divine envoy inheritance crystals, spaceships, special life forms, great treasures, supreme treasures, beast god inheritance tokens... The higher-ups told me to guard this defense line well, but I failed to make a good contribution. This is my small compensation." Gu En's words drove the people around him into a frenzy.

"You five, guard the gate. Those who are Venerable, King-level peak, or have a lifespan exceeding 100,000 epochs are all prohibited from entering."

“Zi Rong, Senior Brother, you can send the suitable guys you’ve chosen.”

Venerable Bhagavan sensed something was wrong. After his successful breakthrough, he brought his teacher to celebrate, only to be met with this scene. He was at a loss for words.

As for whether Zi Rong will be able to break through and become a cosmic venerable one day, it is still hard to say.

Guen and Venerable Bhahou arrived at the temple above, where Venerable Tanshi was already waiting, looking at him with a complicated expression: "Is there trouble?"

"It is related to the legacy of the God, and for a long time, we will have to leave the original universe."

The Venerable Greed sighed, "I can't help you anymore."

Gu En knelt down. The Venerable One of Greed had given him a great deal of help, but he could give the Venerable One of Greed a nothing in return.

……

"You want to guard the Blood Luo World?" Gunn looked at the gentle Ying Jun in front of him, somewhat surprised.

“I was still too slow. By the time I caught up, you had already transcended so much.” Ying Jun smiled bitterly. “I’m just one of the guardians. There are five of us Venerables guarding this place. Guarding this place for 100 epochs will yield a treasure point. It’s very rare. I don’t even dare to imagine how rich I would be if I could guard this place all by myself in the future.”

"It'll be soon. You're also a high-level Venerable with combat strength. Becoming a hegemon is just a matter of time." Gu En had seen through some clues.

“It’s difficult.” Ying Jun shook his head. “But if I succeed, I will definitely be able to control the area alone. When that happens, I will build a palace here. This place looks bare and not very nice.”

Ying Jun suddenly laughed: "Actually, I chose this place because guarding it can get a small batch of Blood Crystals that can only be disposed of each year. There are too few treasures that can increase the life gene multiple, and they are too expensive. It's barely enough for me, but not enough for Wu Qijielang, and not enough for my child either."

Gunn glanced at him: "You seem to be living a comfortable life."

Ying Jun smiled, simply gazing at the Blood Luo World.

……

Gunn's farewell didn't last long; he had many friends, but not enough.

He took Moto and the Blazing Fire Thorn to have a big drinking session with Venerable Enlightenment. Venerable Enlightenment didn't ask many questions or say much. He just chatted and drank with Gu En. This was Gu En's most relaxed day. Moto and the Blazing Fire Thorn were special enough that they were also fortunate enough to drink a little with him. They were called soul slaves, but in the end, they were almost like disciples.

This was Gunn's most relaxing day. He didn't think about anything and just wasted time. His mind calmed down, and when he sobered up, he inexplicably reached the level of the will of the universe's master.

'Headless underestimates my abilities. Show him, and he'll be shocked.'

After bidding farewell to Venerable Qiming, Gu En found himself drawn to Blood Pottery, where he encountered a handsome figure with dragon horns cultivating there. Indeed, the life form from the Yulun World had been absorbed by Blood Pottery.

Suddenly, Qing saw him too, and she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes: "Mr. Lei, I thought you were angry with me for not leaving with you back then."

"I'm angry. I'm already lonely, but I have no one to keep me company."

Qing paused for a moment, then looked up and said, "Mr. Lei, it's so good to meet you."

……

Endless years are just a number.

In today's universe, a life called the Ancient Palace Master has been gradually forgotten. Only in the Wind-Riding Universe Kingdom can his treasures and all his insights still be known.

"Senior Niehuo, is this Book of Destiny truly so difficult to study?" A being with a dragon tail, red horns, and red scales held a thick jade book, looking very excited.

The Flame Star Clan, Gunn's masterpiece, was originally intended to be a remnant of the Flame God Clan, but Gunn intervened and made the Flame Star Clan a race with a genetic multiplier of 7, thus becoming one of the leading races of the Wind-Riding Universe Kingdom.

The Fiery Thorns, perhaps the source of the veil, or perhaps the final, desperate act of Gunn, bestowed upon him a great deal of genetic material, ultimately enabled him to cross that threshold and become the supreme ruler of the Wind-Riding Universe Kingdom, one of the Venerable beings left behind by his master.

Wei Lan possesses the combat power of a Cosmic Venerable but has not yet crossed over, but from their last exchange, it was already clear that he is close.

Jie, this Zerg warrior with independent consciousness, was ultimately rejected.

“It’s difficult. Although the master wanted to leave behind something precious, the path of life genes is too special and transcendent. A total of 108,000 books were left behind. According to the master, these are only a part of the foundation. There simply isn’t enough time. Any one of them surpasses the Blood Seed Classic of the Greedy Beginning Venerable,” said the Blazing Fire Thorn.

"Then let's go find Senior Moto. He said he would make me a proper personal weapon for protection." The Flame Star Clan member put down the treasure book and returned it to its original place.

The Blazing Thorns was waiting for this: Moto, who, like him, was valued but failed to break through, a thought that filled him with a sense of wonder.

"Let's go, he's testing weapons in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom." With this highly talented and promising Flame Star Clan life form in tow, Nie Huo Jing Ji headed towards the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

The Qianwu Universe Kingdom, a place of empty starry sky.

The Blazing Thorns and the Flame Star Clan were watching Moto's weapon demonstration; any beam of light could pierce through the spatial rifts, possessing an incredibly exaggerated destructive power.

"Wow, this kind of mechanical weapon... I'm afraid even an immortal wouldn't be able to withstand it," the Flame Star Clan lifeform exclaimed.

Nie Huojingji shook his head: "I'll go to Qianwu's place first and collect the resources from this ten thousand epochs. You can take your time and just make sure nothing goes wrong."

After saying that, the Blazing Thorns teleported away.

"Don't worry, it's perfectly safe." Moto's mechanical body manipulated the weapon, conducting experiment after experiment until he had sufficient data before stopping and beginning to dismantle the spacetime force field device—a device used to isolate the inside from the outside and prevent accidental injury to others.

The Flame Star Clan creature curiously and cautiously touched the silver giant cannon that was still in the center. Suddenly, the giant cannon in front of it trembled and emitted a terrifying beam of light, illuminating the entire dark and silent starry sky. It directly broke through the space without a spacetime force field and shot directly into the dark universe.

"Oh no!" Moto exclaimed in alarm. He had great confidence in his mechanical creation, which was why he left it in the field. It should not even have enough energy for a single shot, but what he was seeing was actually happening.

Moto quickly put away his weapon and chased after the beam of light.

……

A gray figure was intently pursuing a spaceship far in the distance, continuously influencing it and forcing it to return to the original universe. The risk he was taking in the dark universe was too great.

Just then, a beam of light suddenly burst into the dark universe, grazing his body and instantly disrupting his speed, causing him to fall out of the dark universe. At the same time, half of his divine body was directly annihilated.

"What's going on, what's going on!"

The gray-clad figure was nearly driven mad; it was almost finished.

But he immediately came to his senses. In his current state, continuing the pursuit would be fruitless. So, he used a hidden connection—an alien being who had previously pursued and wanted the same target. Although doing so was dancing on the edge of human rules, he didn't want his enemy to live.

"Damn it, who is it?!"

He hated that beam of light to the core. His gray figure dared not linger; he was now incredibly vulnerable.

……

In the distant starry sky, a mechanical life form suddenly received a message, and was somewhat incredulous.

"To actually send messages through a battlefield outside the region, it seems someone really wants you dead."

The mechanical life form, though only a realm lord, immediately set off. He was no ordinary realm lord; he was capable of rivaling some immortals or even weak marquises. However, a component of his most important weapon was stolen by a despicable human—a gift from his "father."

In the machine race, the hierarchy is like father and son. His father has many sons, and he is just one of them. However, he lost a component of a precious weapon that his father had given him, and his father was already dissatisfied. He did not want to fall out of favor, and one way to prove himself was to retrieve the component, let his father see his abilities, and regain his father's trust and affection.

He alone could hardly break through the barrier of immortality.

Even if it's to use me, I will still go.

The Mechanical Race Lord remained steadfast.

……

In the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, somewhere within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, lies a blue planet.

A triangular, blood-red spaceship crashed down, its shape skewed. The entire planet had a primitive appearance, except for a nest that constantly emitted poisonous gas, which remained quietly and out of place on the surface. Half a day later, a silver pyramid followed closely behind.

The ending was decided when it was written; the only difference is the process. There will also be one or two extra chapters describing the events and impacts that follow Luo Feng.
