Living in the deep palace

Su Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Those were the ultimate divine eyes, no longer bound by any shape, encompassing endless birth and death and dimensions.

He raised his head and looked at this absolutely void "outer realm".

At the end of this void, he could vaguely see something.

There are countless "multiverse bubbles" like the ones he just devoured, in this truly endless ocean!
Some of them radiate the cold blue light of technological civilization, some radiate the dark purple demonic energy of eerie evil gods, and some float like mechanical continents resembling giant beasts!

These universes are like countless blind boxes placed on an endless dining table!
"turn out to be……"

In Su Chen's eyes, the gluttonous fire that had just subsided reignited with an even more ferocious and greedy intensity!

A chilling, sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth, a smile that sent shivers down the spines of even the void beyond this realm.

……

……

No light. No darkness. No time. No space.

This is the absolute nothingness beyond the boundaries of multiple universes.

There is no concept of direction, nor the flow of laws. In this endless ocean as silent as stagnant water, only those "cosmic bubbles" that emit a faint light and float like foam prove that there is still some kind of "life" in this nothingness.

And between these bubbles.

A man in a green robe stood with his hands behind his back.

He was not surrounded by any divine light, nor did he possess that exaggerated, multi-million-foot-tall demonic form. Standing there, he himself seemed like an ultimate gluttonous singularity, capable of devouring everything that "exists" and "does not exist"!
"belch……"

Su Chen patted his stomach with great comfort, savoring the taste of the "Primordial Creator's Thick Soup" he had just eaten.

His divine eyes, which had reached the [Eighth Realm - Indescribable], were now scrutinizing the densely packed cosmic bubbles in front of him with an unprecedented, discerning gaze, as if he were browsing a vast, unpredictable market.

"I just had a sumptuous soup feast, and now my stomach is really rumbling."

Su Chen stuck out his pale, colorless tongue and licked his stark white fangs.

He strolled outside the boundaries like a customer browsing snacks on a shelf.

"This universe, radiating a cold blue light..."

Su Chen walked up to a cosmic bubble made up of countless steel gears and a torrent of data, and gently tapped the hard crystal wall with his finger, producing a dull metallic clang.

"The smell of rust is too strong. The creatures inside are all mechanical dead things without flesh and blood. If you swallow them, it's like chewing a pile of scrap metal and tin foil. Not only is it hard on your teeth, but there's not a drop of oil in it either."

Su Chen shook his head in disdain and skipped over this "technological universe".

He continued forward, his gaze piercing through the void, until finally, it locked onto a massive cosmic bubble that emitted an eerie, distorted, dark purple aura!
"Om——————"

The surface of this cosmic bubble wasn't a smooth crystalline wall. Instead, it was covered with countless enormous pustules and eyeballs, each as large as a star! Layers of viscous, purplish-black mucus, emitting an indescribable stench, writhed and slid wildly across the bubble's surface!
Even from a great distance, Su Chen could hear the eerie murmurs and frantic delirium emanating from within that universe, enough to drive a seventh-realm Dao Supreme insane instantly mad!
【The Unspeakable Evil God Universe】!
This is an abyssal universe completely ruled by endless madness, chaos, and Cthulhu-esque Outer Gods! Here, sanity is poison, and distortion is the norm!
However, faced with such a bizarre universe that even the Creator would shy away from,...

Su Chen's Adam's apple, however, bounced violently, much to his dismay!
"Gurgle..."

Su Chen took a deep breath of the dark purple aura seeping from the cosmic crystal wall. Instead of the pain of being mentally corrupted, his face blossomed into a fanatical and ferocious smile, like a drunkard smelling a peerless wine!

"It's fishy! It's fucking fishy!!!"

"It smells like stale, dead fish that has been fermenting for millions of years, and it's full of a slimy, fishy odor!"

Su Chen's eyes shot out an unprecedentedly ravenous, bloodthirsty light. He suddenly drew the Origin Bone Knife from his waist, the blade pointing directly at the cosmic bubble covered with eyeballs.

"I thought this outer realm was full of dried-up vegetables, but I never expected to find such a top-quality fermented food can filled with [soft-bodied seafood]!!!"

"Gaga... Hahahaha!!!"

Su Chen's maniacal laughter, under the indescribable pressure of the Eighth Realm, transformed into a storm that tore through the void beyond the boundary, sweeping straight towards that evil god universe!
It seemed that they had noticed Su Chen's undisguised "extreme appetite".

On the surface of that enormous bubble of the evil god's universe, billions of turbid, giant eyeballs suddenly rotated in unison, staring intently at the foreign man in the green robe!
"Hiss hiss hiss————"

A surge of [Ultimate Mental Pollution], condensing trillions of indescribable monsters from the entire Evil God Universe, transformed into an invisible torrent of dark purple will, traversing the void and directly blasting into the depths of Su Chen's soul!

This intent is mixed with despair, depravity, flesh distortion, and endless madness! This is the most powerful weapon that the evil gods use to assimilate outsiders!
"Feeling...blindness...foolishness...turning into...mud..."

The eerie murmurs echoed in Su Chen's mind.

"Spiritual pollution? Assimilation?"

Su Chen stood still, letting the dark purple torrent wash over his consciousness. He not only didn't resist, but closed his eyes, as if savoring some extremely special ingredient.

Half a breath later.

Su Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and the gluttonous karmic fire in his eyes burned the twisted thoughts that rushed into his mind to ashes!
He wasn't crazy at all; instead, he smacked his lips and his eyes were full of surprise.

"What a powerful drive!"

"This twisting sensation that shot straight to the top of my head is just like eating the most premium [Primordial Wasabi]! One bite and my eyes almost watered, yet it was so exhilarating that it made my soul tremble!"

Su Chen was completely excited!
The [Eighth Realm: Origin Demon Blade] in his hand, transformed from a bone knife, created a dimensional-tearing blade flower in the void.

He strode towards that evil god universe.

"Such exquisite wasabi-marinated seafood, if you only smell it through the can, wouldn't that be a waste?!"

"Today, I, the Venerable One, will be the one to open the can!"

Su Chen walked up to the crystal wall covered with eyeballs, gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands, and aimed the tip of the knife at the thickest pustules on the crystal wall.

"The Law of Origin—Serve as the [Can Opener] for the Main Body!!!"

"Pfft————————!!!!!"

With a furious roar from Su Chen that could shatter the void beyond the boundary, the Origin Demon Blade in his hand, carrying the absolute sharpness of the eighth realm that ignores all logic and defense, fiercely and mercilessly pierced into the viscous crystal wall of the evil god universe!

"Crunch... crunch crunch crunch crunch——————"

A sickeningly loud, metallic tearing sound rang out!

Su Chen's arm muscles bulged high, and along the edge of the cosmic bubble, as if using a can opener to pry open a giant can of herring, he forcefully, inch by inch, tore open that seemingly indestructible cosmic crystal wall, creating a terrifying gap hundreds of millions of miles long!
"Sizzle!!!"

The can has been pried open!
...“Rumble rumble rumble!!!”

As Su Chen roughly tore open the crystal wall of the Evil God Universe like prying open a can, an extremely thick, almost tangible purplish-black viscous liquid and the source of madness, like a burst dam, gushed out wildly from the gap!

"Waaaaahh ...

Accompanied by a chilling, eerie hiss, endless "unspeakable things" surged out of the gap like a tide!
Some of them have tens of thousands of tentacles covered in barbs, some are rotten flesh pieced together from countless wailing mouths, and others are mountains of flesh made purely of eyeballs and mucus! These are the Outer Gods and the Great Old Ones that strike fear into the hearts of countless lower beings in this universe!
They roared and twisted, trying to tear this green-robed madman who dared to break their cosmic cradle to pieces and drag him into an endless, insane dream.

however.

Standing directly in front of the gap, Su Chen looked at the disgusting monsters surging in from all directions.

The light emanating from those Origin God Eyes of the Eighth Realm was billions of times brighter than the most blazing star!
"Wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!!!"

Instead of retreating, Su Chen faced the sky full of tentacles and rotten flesh, and took a deep breath of the nauseating fishy smell!

"Octopus tentacles! Squid tentacles! Bursting eyeballs! And this rotten flesh crawling all over the ground!"

Su Chen's saliva was almost dripping from the corner of his mouth, and his wild laughter directly shattered a large group of Old Ones charging at the forefront!
"This venerable deity, who has spent most of his life eating meager morsels in this void, has finally broken his fast today, encountering a pit teeming with [soft-bodied seafood]!!!"

"but……"

Su Chen frowned slightly, looking at the disgusting slime secreted from the monsters, a hint of a gourmand's pickiness flashing in his eyes.

"Although these soft-bodied seafoods have a springy texture, if eaten raw, the slime covering their bodies really ruins the taste and the fishy smell is too strong."

"To truly bring out the best flavor of this seafood, you must first blanch it thoroughly in boiling water, then stir-fry it over high heat!

After saying that, Su Chen suddenly opened his arms and unleashed the indescribable power of the eighth realm!
"The Great Dao is formless, transform into my iron pot! Rise, my true self!!!"

boom!!!
Amidst the terrified and confused perceptions of those outer gods, the absolute nothingness of the outer realm was actually distorted and shaped by Su Chen!
In the blink of an eye, the Origin Iron Pot, which stretched across the void and was large enough to contain the entire Evil God Universe, materialized beneath Su Chen's feet!

"Fire!!!"

Su Chen stomped his right foot on the bottom of the pot, and a burst of [Eighth Realm - Ultimate Stir-Frying Inferno], a mixture of dark gold and pale white, roared up from the bottom of the pot! This flame was designed to burn away concepts and incinerate reason!

"Give them all to me—put them all in the pot!!!"

Su Chen transformed into a gluttonous demon god tens of millions of feet tall, his two huge hands like a fishing net, fiercely scooping up the countless alien gods and tentacle monsters pouring out from the gap in the crystal wall!
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Tens of thousands of Old Ones, along with their enormous tentacles and eyeballs, were grabbed by Su Chen as easily as catching eels, and then mercilessly thrown into the red-hot iron pot!

"Zzz ...

Accompanied by the sizzling sound of frying oil that makes your scalp crawl, a rich aroma of grilled squid tentacles and charred seafood instantly filled the outer area!
"Chirp chirp chirp!!!"

Those high and mighty Outer Gods who took pleasure in toying with the reason of mortals finally experienced what true despair was at this moment! Their supposedly immortal and mutated bodies were scalded and rolled and curled up wildly in this iron pot of the eighth realm! Their originally slippery tentacles rapidly contracted under the high temperature, becoming firm and brittle!
"Too bland! Add some more seasoning!!!"

Su Chen was like a mad chef, controlling the ultimate karmic fire with his left hand and summoning a whip tens of thousands of miles long from somewhere with his right hand, which was formed from pure [Thunder Dao].

"Thunderous force! Blazing fire!"

"Give me—stir-fried spicy seafood!!!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Su Chen brandished his thunderous whip, whipping and stirring it wildly in the iron pot like a stir-fry spatula!
Those outer gods were whipped until their skin was torn and their flesh was ripped open. The numbing sensation of thunder mixed with the spiciness of karmic fire was deeply imprinted into every inch of their deformed flesh!
"It's ripe!!!"

Looking at the "seafood" in the pot, which had been stir-fried until it changed color and whose tentacles had curled up into clumps, Su Chen could no longer suppress the greed in his eyes.

He reached into the scorching hot iron pot, grabbed a handful of the golden-brown, crispy "Old Ones' Hodgepodge," and stuffed it into the abyss's gaping maw like popcorn!

"Crack! Snap! Sizzle!"

The crisp chewing sound was accompanied by the popping of juice!

"Um!!"

Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he let out a very satisfied exclamation.

"This eyeball is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Take a bite, and the juicy, crazy stuff inside will burst into your mouth! It's like a juicy, bursting beef ball!"

"After being stir-fried with thunder and fire, these tentacles are chewy, bouncy, spicy, and fragrant! The more you chew, the more flavorful they become!"

Su Chen swallowed large mouthfuls, finishing off the first batch of cooked outer gods in one go.

However, this is just the appetizer.

Just as Su Chen was preparing to continue "fishing for seafood" from that cosmic gap.

"Buzz————————!!!!!"

The entire bubble of the evil god universe suddenly erupted with a terrifying rhythm that froze the void beyond the boundary.

Deep within the torn crystalline wall, endless darkness writhed like a living thing. Accompanied by a strange flute sound as if countless universes were playing simultaneously, an indescribable, formless, and primordial being, like a boiling mass of blind chaos, slowly rose from the depths of the universe.

[The source of blind ignorance!]
The supreme ruler of this evil god universe, the source of all madness! His very existence is the ultimate blasphemy against the word "logic"!

"Who... disturbed my slumber..."

This intention was silent, yet it transformed directly into billions of streams of "chaotic acid" capable of dissolving the physical bodies of eighth-realm experts, engulfing Su Chen from all directions!

"The real person has finally appeared!"

Faced with this ultimate evil god capable of assimilating everything, Su Chen not only did not back down in the slightest, but the Origin Demon Blade in his hand emitted a thirsty buzzing sound!

"I've just finished a whole pot of shrimp and I was worried about not having a grand finale!"

"You lump of mud, though you may not look very appealing, you're got plenty of meat! You'd be perfect for making braised lion's head meatballs or a mixed wonton soup!!!"

Su Chen roared, threw away the iron pot, picked up the Source Demon Blade, and transformed into an extreme blade of light that cleaved through the void, directly crashing into the gap in the crystal wall of that evil god universe!

"Old bastard!"

"Wash away your indescribable flesh!"

"Give it to me—take a bite!!!" (End of Chapter)
