Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 424 Achieving the Ultimate
"The True Self Vow?"

Lin chuckled and said, "For World Gods and Ancestors, is the binding force of the True Self Oath really that strong? Besides, there is no oath that is absolutely trustworthy, otherwise the Origin Realm would not have perished back then."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore shook his head and said, "At least it proves that what I said is true, doesn't it? Knowing that there is a high probability of losing, what is the point of persisting?"

"The Ancestor of the Other Shore holds the highest position among future rule cultivators," Lin Qing said. "Doesn't the Ancestor of the Other Shore understand that the future is uncertain?"

The Ancestor of the Other Shore raised an eyebrow slightly, sized him up, and then asked, "Have you decided?"

“The Origin Realm was destroyed by the Star Abyss,” Lin Qing said.

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "Is the Primordial Realm really that much related to you? You are just a being who happened to be born in the New Primordial Realm. Do you really care about the cause and effect of the Primordial Realm?"

He shook his head slightly. "Besides, the Void God Clan did not make a move only because of the restriction of the True Self Oath, which prevented them from attacking their allies. But if the Three Realms Gods had not allowed it, how would we, the Star Abyss Ancestors, have had the opportunity to destroy the Origin Realm?"

"Is that so?" Lin Qing said, "Why destroy the Origin Realm? Just because of Princess Su?"

“In this endless chaos, there are very few things that are worth our attention, but she has violated our taboo.”

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said calmly, "Originally, it would have been enough to kill Princess Su. If anyone is to blame, it is the Lord of the Origin Realm who used a Chaos Treasure to imprint her soul on the Origin Realm's origin, making her live and die with her home universe like the Lord of a God Kingdom. In order to prevent her from being resurrected, we had no choice but to destroy the Origin Realm."

He looked at Lin Qing and said, "But you are not Princess Su. You can become a friend of Xingyuan. As long as you are willing, you will definitely have a place in the future Cosmic God. What do you say?"

"is it?"

Lin chuckled, "If Xingyuan were to devour the entire main universe, leaving only ruins, what would be the point of the position of Cosmic God?"

The Ancestor of the Other Shore frowned slightly and said, "We will not exhaust the resources, but will only devour a portion of the origin of the main universe."

“The Void Gods can do the same,” Lin Qing said calmly.

The Ancestor of the Other Shore looked at him and slowly said, "It seems there's nothing to talk about?"

Lin Qing did not speak.

"That's all."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore nodded slightly, gave him one last look, and then turned and disappeared without a trace.

This miniature universe also collapsed into nothingness.

Lin Qing stood in the starry sky, her brows slightly furrowed.

Perhaps what the Ancestor of the Other Shore said was true; Xingyuan really does have a better chance of winning and will indeed be given the position of a Cosmic God.

But... is Xingyuan really controllable?

From the information he saw on the relief at the gate of the Temple of the End Universe, the collision and plunder between the Star Abyss and the Cosmic Tree could not even be resisted by such a vast and enormous main universe. Could these three Star Abyss Ancestors really control the Star Abyss?
Even the three World Gods of the Void God Clan regard the Cosmic Tree as the supreme being, and dare not say that they 'control' it. The Void God Clan is more like the child or vassal of the Cosmic Tree.

Ultimately, neither the Void Gods nor the Star Abyss Demons can guarantee the safety of the main universe.

So what if you make a vow?
"Neither the Cosmic Tree nor the Star Abyss are under our control."

Lin Qing's eyes turned slightly cold. "Even if the main universe is completely devoured and reduced to ruins, it doesn't mean that these World Gods and Ancestors have broken their promise if they don't try to stop it or are unable to do so."

Therefore, neither the Star Abyss Demons nor the Void Gods are trustworthy.

Entrusting one's fate to the whim of a powerful person is like duckweed adrift on water, its rise and fall entirely beyond its control.

"I'll have to rely on myself..." Lin Qing took a deep breath.

He knew it in his heart.

He has three trump cards that could change everything.

Those who reverse entropy.

That mysterious final cosmic temple.

And... he is also expected to become the ruler of a divine kingdom who controls the ultimate rules of chaos in the future!

Theoretically, the strongest level of the ruler of a divine kingdom.

"First, achieve the ultimate goal and refine a pillar-level natal treasure..."

With the ultimate position still two million years away, Lin Qing wasted no more time and continued his travels through the universe.

……

Star Abyss.

This strange celestial body, which resembles countless worlds stacked upon each other and as vast as the main universe, is the core of the Star Abyss at its deepest level.

In this final layer of the world, a terrifying eye, as vast as a miniature universe, overlooks the endless abyss of stars, and even peers greedily and madly into the boundless main universe through the rifts of the abyss.

A phantom image coalesced into a figure in black robes, none other than the Ancestor of the Other Shore.

"Other Shore, you've failed?"

Accompanied by a deep voice, an endless sense of bloodshed and chaotic will suddenly descended, transforming into a figure dressed in a yellow robe.

“In the past,” the Ancestor of the Other Shore said calmly, “Lin Qing harbors deep hostility towards our clan. There’s no need to waste time on him.”

"Have you given up?"

The ancient ancestor said in a deep voice, "He has the bloodline of the second generation of the God Clan. As long as he comprehends the method of opening up the inner universe of the dual rules, he will surely achieve the ultimate. After a long period of time, becoming the ruler of the God Kingdom will not be difficult. If the God Clan refines a weapon embryo for him in the future and allows him to cultivate a pillar-level universe treasure, the God Clan will probably have another peak combatant!"

Below the God of the Universe, the most powerful beings are the rulers of dual-rule divine kingdoms. Once such beings possess a pillar-level cosmic treasure, they will have peak combat power!

Only the Immortal Realm Lord and the Heavenly Capital God Lord possess such combat power among all human races, and the mechanical race has only one.

On the Xingyuan side, only the Mother River Clan possessed three peak combatants. The Origin Clan and the Star Beast Clan didn't even have divine positions, so naturally they couldn't use the universe's supreme treasures.

Such strength is enough to influence the situation on the Chaos Battlefield.

"Of course I understand."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said indifferently, "Even if he achieves the ultimate goal or even becomes the ruler of a god kingdom, it cannot be stopped. However, his desire to refine a pillar-level cosmic treasure is actually an opportunity for us."

"Chance?"

A woman's soft laughter suddenly rang out, and a young woman dressed in hemp clothing emerged from the void, looking at the Ancestor of the Other Shore and the Ancestor of the Ancient Times with a half-smile.

The progenitor of Jambudvipa.

She said softly, "You want to make your move while he's refining a pillar-level cosmic treasure?"

"good."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "The final step in refining a pillar-level cosmic treasure is to refine three ultimate beings from the past, present, and future in order to form a triple universe. There are quite a few ultimate beings who can cultivate the rules of the present and the past, and we cannot stop them. But there are only so many ultimate beings who can cultivate the rules of the future."

The Ancestor of Jambudvipa looked at him and said, "You want to use this to set a trap for him? How could he not have thought of that?"

"He had no choice."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "The human race has thirty-two transcendent civilizations, plus the Immortal Realm and the Abyss Realm, totaling only forty-seven ultimate beings who cultivate the future rules. Without exception, all forty-seven of them are rulers of divine kingdoms, and he cannot kill any of them."

"The same applies to the machine race." "So he really only has two choices."

"The Star Beast Clan's 'Pillar of Revelation,' or perhaps the 'Primordial God Child' recently born by the Mother River Clan."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore slowly said, "Future rule cultivators are extremely rare and cherished by all races. After their birth, most races will try their best to make them the rulers of the divine kingdoms to avoid their death or being refined into a pillar-level universe treasure. They only have these two choices."

Both the progenitor of Jambudvipa and the progenitor of the past understood his meaning.

In the ultimate realm, the ruler of a divine kingdom is virtually impossible to kill.

Because the consciousness of the Lord of the Divine Kingdom resides within the origin of his home universe, and his soul is imprinted there, he can be resurrected as long as a trace of his consciousness remains, making him virtually immortal.

In theory, no method, including causal means, soul destruction, illusion, or any other means, can completely destroy a ruler of a divine kingdom.

While there is a slim chance of annihilation at the level of consciousness, the consciousness of the Lord of the Divine Kingdom is protected by the origin of the Divine Kingdom. No matter how skilled one is at willpower attacks, it is impossible to directly annihilate his consciousness!
Therefore, in theory, to destroy a god-kingdom, one must either destroy its home universe or have the ruler of its home universe take action.

"but……"

The ancient progenitor said in a low voice, "The Star Beast Clan's 'Pillar of Revelation' is a special case. The Mother River Clan's 'Near-Primordial Divine Child' has just been born. No new divine kingdom has yet been born in the Mother River, but both are under the strictest protection of these two clans. Logically speaking, it is impossible for the human race to find an opportunity to kill these two."

“Then give him a chance,” said the Ancestor of the Other Shore. “If he doesn’t take the bait, then so be it. But if he does, then do everything you can to destroy him.”

Ancestor Yanfu pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid that the human race will be like the Heavenly Capital God and the Immortal Realm Lord back then, with a God Kingdom Lord who cultivates the future rules willingly offering his life and being refined into a pillar-level universe treasure."

The ancient progenitor also frowned slightly.

The number of ultimate beings who cultivate the rules of the future is extremely small, and all races are on guard against them, which has led to almost all of these ultimate beings who cultivate the rules of the future becoming the rulers of divine kingdoms.

This makes the crafting of pillar-level cosmic treasures incredibly difficult.

The Mother River Clan exists because the beings nurtured by the Mother River do not rebel against their Mother Ancestors, including the ultimate beings who cultivate the rules of the future. This is why the three Mother Ancestors were able to forge three pillar-level cosmic treasures.

The same is true for the Mech race.

"Don't worry."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said indifferently, "The human race is a race created by the Cosmic God in imitation of himself. Although the Mother River Race and the Mechanical Race have life forms similar to the human race and have taken away some of the Star God's duties, they are still different from the human race in essence."

"Humanity is a contradictory race that combines selfishness and dedication."

"Back then, when the Star Abyss eroded the main universe, the human race was in danger of extinction. In order to ensure the survival of the race, the three demigod-level civilizations of the human race each offered a future ruler of the divine kingdom to refine the clan's supreme treasure."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "But the human race is not facing a survival crisis right now, and the Void God Clan even has the upper hand. Of the forty-seven God Kingdom Lords who cultivate the future rules, which one of them is willing to sacrifice everything for Lin Qing's personal strength?"

He paused, then said calmly, “Humans, the human heart is inherently unpredictable. To bring together countless loose individuals, besides rules, the most important thing is to win over the masses. Even if the immortal realm lords or the Heavenly Capital God Lords of the human race are willing to have their subordinates, the God Kingdom Lords who cultivate the future rules, voluntarily offer themselves up, it will still be difficult to win over the masses. Once the hearts of the people are scattered, it is normal for them to betray and defect to my Star Abyss.”

Ancestor Yanfu nodded slightly and said, "Leaving behind the Pillar of Revelation and the Primordial Divine Child, even if the human race understands it's a trap, it's still an opportunity. We can't sacrifice our own people first."

"Just wait and see."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore said, "Either we wait for Lin Qing to walk into our trap, or we watch as the human race splits apart."

The ancient ancestor slowly said, "Perhaps the human race will send both the Heavenly Capital God Lord and the Immortal Realm Lord to help for the sake of Lin Qing."

"That would be even better," the Ancestor of the Other Shore said calmly. "The Mother River Clan has another big surprise waiting for the human race."

……

In the blink of an eye, two million years have passed.

Mountain and sea realm.

In a secluded space above Mount Buzhou, Lin Qing sat cross-legged in a palace, quietly waiting.

Today is the day when the ultimate position will be attained.

Once he breaks through to the ultimate level, his activities in the main universe will be limited to the spacetime of his home world, and he won't even be able to enter the Void Sea.

The same applies to clones.

"coming."

Lin Qing suddenly raised her head and looked towards the deepest part of the highest dimension of endless spacetime.

He had already experienced it once in the future, so there was nothing to be nervous about.

The next moment, the chaotic void layer at the deepest part of endless spacetime completely cracked open, and at the same time, a vast and boundless great will swept over Lin Qing in an instant.

This is the will of the rules governing the endless chaos.

At the same time, from the depths of the completely shattered chaotic void layer, a stream of light of indescribable color flew out.

This stream of light seemed infinitely small, yet it also seemed infinitely large, giving birth to countless miracles.

The ultimate position.

It is also called the 'seed of the universe'.

At this moment, the seed of the universe directly entered Lin Qing's brow, traversed into his inner world, and then quietly merged into the deepest core of the world's origin.

"Boom--!!"

As the inner world shattered, endless surging chaotic energy poured in, beginning to reshape itself under the catalysis of the Seed of the Universe, evolving towards a new universe.

Similar to the previous breakthrough in future spacetime, the inner universe of the dual-rule foundation began to expand wildly after its birth.

Three hundred and eighty thousand years later, the expansion of this universe within the body finally stopped temporarily, and the cosmic membrane, with a diameter of about 38 billion light-years, gradually stabilized in the chaos.

"Breakthrough..."

Lin Qing slowly took a deep breath, feeling the terrifying power within his body that was more than a thousand times stronger than before, and couldn't help but smile.

The ultimate existence of a single-rule foundation generally has an internal universe with a diameter of 3.8 billion light-years.

His inner universe is a full 38 billion light-years in diameter, so his strength is naturally much greater than that of an ordinary ultimate being.

Even disregarding mental will, his sheer power is already close to that of a god!
"If I were to unleash my full power, there should be no one below the lord of a high-level divine kingdom who could be my match."

Lin Qing secretly pondered his own strength, "But if I were to face a ruler of a high-level divine kingdom, I'm afraid there would still be quite a gap..."

The rulers of the higher divine kingdoms are all virtually without weaknesses.

His will was comparable to that of a high-level god-king, and even if he unleashed the Great Annihilation of the Illusionary World, it would only reduce the opponent's strength slightly.

After he unleashed the "True God of the Heart," his strength, while overwhelming that of ordinary god-kings, was still not as exaggerated as that of high-level god-kings.

"To cultivate a pillar-level cosmic treasure, the first difficulty is the embryo, and the second is that you must refine the ultimate existence of the future rules..."

Lin slightly narrowed her eyes.

He already had a plan for this.
