Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 440 The Greed of the Star Abyss Overlord

The Cosmic Tree.

Inside the World Temple.

"This Mountain and Sea Realm has only just become a demigod-level civilization, and it's already starting to expand rapidly again?"

Now, the God of Realms sits on his throne, his gaze piercing through endless time and space as he observes the changes in the Mountain and Sea Realm. "Where did Lin Qing obtain such a vast amount of cosmic origin?"

"Judging by this rate of expansion, the Mountain and Sea Realm is likely to transform to its limit of 380 billion light-years in diameter in one go," the past world god exclaimed.

"It seems Lin Qing had a fortuitous encounter in the Primal Realm," the Future God said softly.

"Even if it expands to the limit of 380 billion light-years, it will still only be a demigod-level civilization." The World God's eyes were indifferent; although surprised, he did not care at all.

Even transcendent civilizations or demigod-level civilizations are essentially just small universes that have not truly separated from the main universe.

Once the main universe is destroyed, the smaller universes that depend on it will also be destroyed.

The Void Gods, a fourth-level civilization or a god-level civilization, are the only truly free and eternal civilizations.

The Cosmic Tree is such an existence.

Although they are world gods, they don't know how special celestial bodies like the Cosmic Tree and the Star Abyss came into being, after all, they are just life forms nurtured by the Cosmic Tree.

But... as beings that existed before the birth of the main universe, they are ultimately different.

No matter how large a demigod-level civilization is, in the eyes of beings like the progenitor of world gods, it is nothing more than a weak civilization that can be destroyed at any time.

"That's not bad."

The future God of the Realm said, "If the Mountain and Sea Realm can transform to a diameter of 380 billion light-years in one go, it will be enough to give birth to hundreds of divine kingdoms, which will be a great help to our race in the struggle against the Star Abyss."

The entire human race has only a few hundred rulers of divine kingdoms, and they are mainly concentrated in the Immortal Realm and the Abyss Realm civilizations.

The number of rulers of divine kingdoms depends entirely on the number of divine kingdoms.

However, in small universes of transcendent civilizations like the Kings Realm, there are at most three great divine kingdoms.

Only in the small universes of demigod-level civilizations, with diameters exceeding 72 billion light-years, can new divine kingdoms gradually emerge.

The Abyss Realm is quite vast, with a diameter exceeding 280 billion light-years, but it only has about 200 divine kingdoms. The Immortal Realm is even smaller, with a diameter of only 250 billion light-years, and only about 120 divine kingdoms.

However, a small universe with a diameter of 380 billion light-years could theoretically give rise to 380 divine kingdoms!

Such a large number of divine kingdom rulers naturally constitute a formidable fighting force.

The progenitors of the realm gods were unable to determine a victor or even surpass each other, so they could only rely on their subordinates to create an advantage.

"This Lin Qing is indeed a great help to our clan."

The God of the Past sighed in praise.

The God of the Realm paused for a moment, then frowned slightly and said, "But his series of extraordinary encounters, exceeding our clan's expectations time and time again, always make me feel inexplicably uneasy."

The God of the Future glanced at him and said indifferently, "What? Even now, you still want to explore the secrets of Lin Qing? Those three traitors from Xingyuan are eager to see us fight amongst ourselves. Even if you want to compete for the position of the Ancestral Tree's controller, there's no need to be in such a hurry."

The God of the Realm glanced at him and said coldly, "I am perfectly clear about the priorities and the stakes involved; I don't need you to remind me."

The future God of the Realm didn't bother to speak, and simply looked silently at the Mountain and Sea Realm.

He cultivates the rules of the future, giving him a stronger sense of the future. As Lin Qing undergoes transformation after transformation, he gradually develops a feeling that he can neither understand nor see through her.

Lin Qing's strength was clearly undetectable to him; he could see right through him at a glance.

But he just had a sense of the unknown that he couldn't control.

Moreover, within this endless chaos, there truly exist things whose future he cannot foresee.

"If I have truly nurtured a major threat to my clan, I hope you will still remember our promise from back then..."

He silently watched Lin Qing.

……

The deepest part of the Star Abyss.

"This Mountain and Sea Realm is about to transform into a demigod-level civilization in one go."

The Ancestor of the Other Shore observed the future timeline of the Mountain and Sea Realm through spacetime and said softly, "This Lin Qing really has extraordinary luck, actually finding such a vast cosmic origin?"

The ancient progenitor shook his head and said, "It's alright, it's just a demigod-level civilization, it can no longer affect the outcome."

"Let's destroy the gods of the Three Realms first. Once the main universe is completely devoured, this Mountain and Sea Realm will also perish along with the main universe," Ancestor Yanfu said calmly. "What a pity."

The three Star Abyss Ancestors were completely unconcerned.

They are about to use the power of the Star Abyss Overlord to annihilate the Three Realms Gods and reclaim the Cosmic Tree. The destruction of the main universe is also inevitable.

What impact can a mere Lin Qing, a demigod-level civilization, have?
Once the Star Abyss Ruler makes a move, even the Cosmic Tree cannot stop Him. What is a mere demigod civilization?
"You are wrong."

Just then, a low laugh came from inside the Eye of the Star Abyss.

Inside the Eye of the Star Abyss, the enormous body burning with black flames was covered with scarlet scales. It looked like an ordinary Star Abyss Demon, but it was millions of light-years tall and exuded an incomparably terrifying pressure.

"Does the Star Abyss Ruler have any guidance?" asked the Ancestor of the Other Shore.

"Lin Qing is not as simple as you think."

The Star Abyss Ruler said lazily, "The treasures he integrated into the Mountain and Sea Realm universe are quite valuable. Once the war begins, I can hold off the Three Realms Gods and the Cosmic Tree for you. You must use the Star Abyss to completely devour the Mountain and Sea Realm."

The three progenitors were taken aback.

"Devouring the Mountain and Sea Realm?"

"The cosmic origin of a mere demigod civilization is of no use to Xingyuan?"

"Is the Mountain and Sea Realm beneficial to Xingyuan?"

Although the three progenitors didn't know much about Xingyuan's origins, they knew that Xingyuan looked down on these small universes and only longed to devour the origin of the main universe or even the main universe itself.

The Star Abyss Ruler said calmly, "Just do as instructed. If successful, dealing with the Cosmic Tree and the Three Realms Gods will be much easier."

The three ancestors exchanged a glance before nodding in agreement.

The Star Abyss Ruler continued to close his eyes, using the Star Abyss Origin to heal his injuries, and his aura continued to rise slowly.

But His heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

"The origin of another universe! It's actually the origin of another universe!!"

"How could such a vast alien origin appear in such a remote and weak main universe?"

He peered at the ever-expanding mountain and sea realm with a mixture of surprise and delight, his heart filled with greed and longing.

With His strength, He could easily see through the primordial space of the Mountain and Sea Realm universe, and with His knowledge, He could also easily distinguish those powerful primordial forces.

If the origin of an ordinary small universe is worthless scrap iron, then the origin of an alien universe is truly precious gold!

The reason why the Mountain and Sea Realm has been able to expand to such an extent is entirely due to the precious origin of the other universe.

"The origin of the main universe is difficult to absorb; it can only be absorbed little by little."

The Star Abyss Ruler observed the Mountain and Sea Realm with great delight. "But this kind of small universe has no resistance at all. Its origin can be easily plundered. As long as the Star Abyss absorbs the origin of this alien universe of the Mountain and Sea Realm, the feedback power will be able to completely heal my injuries!" After rising from a weak civilization and becoming the ruler of the Star Abyss step by step, He has been driving the Star Abyss to devour the main universe for countless years in order to obtain feedback from the Star Abyss and get closer to the ultimate rules of chaos.

Ultimately, although He is the controller of the Star Abyss, He is more like a collaborator.

Behind some main universes, there are also masters of other universes, and these masters of other universes are vying for the origin of these main universes.

In that battle, although He successfully repelled the Lord of the Other Universe and even allowed Xingyuan to devour that main universe, He was ultimately too badly injured.

If it weren't for the power fed back from Xingyuan that saved His life, He would probably have perished together with that Lord of the Other Universe.

After slumbering within the Eye of the Star Abyss for so many years, He has only slowly recovered somewhat.

However, the power that Xingyuan had fed back had long since disappeared, but the injuries remained. This made Him hesitant to act rashly, because if He were to act and cause further injuries, it would be unknown how long it would take to recover.

Originally, He intended to risk a relapse of His injuries to destroy the Three Realms Gods and receive the origin of this main universe. The power fed back by Xingyuan might alleviate His injuries considerably, so He wouldn't lose out.

but--

But now He has discovered that there is no need to worry about this at all.

"Such a vast source of another universe, as long as Xingyuan absorbs it, the feedback power will definitely be able to completely heal my injuries!"

The Star Abyss Overlord was very excited. "After recovering, I can seize the origin of the main universe. The benefits from the Star Abyss feedback, combined with the cosmic god opportunity on Lin Qing's body, might allow me to advance even further?"

Compared to the origin of the main universe, other universes like Star Abyss actually crave the origin of other universes even more.

The origin of the main universe is very useful, but the origin of the alternate universe is even more useful.

It's like the difference between rice and meat.

However powerful a master of another universe may be, he cannot conquer other universes and therefore cannot absorb the origins of other universes.

Only a cosmic god can destroy an alien universe.

Therefore, the scarcity and preciousness of the origin of another universe can be imagined.

"I never expected that the origin of another universe would exist here. Lin Qing must have a great secret!"

The Star Abyss Ruler stared at the Mountain and Sea Realm with ever-growing greed, as if he were eyeing a table of unparalleled delicacies, his desire reaching its peak.

As for the possibility of offending the God of the Universe?

He didn't care at all.

As the ruler of an alternate universe that has traversed countless eras of endless chaos, He is all too aware of the indifference that the God of the Universe has towards endless chaos.

The birth and destruction of major universes are nothing more than fleeting events, and the rise and fall of powerful figures are nothing more than a farce of ants scavenging for food.

Even some terrifyingly powerful beings who have mastered the ultimate rules of chaos and can be considered half-gods of the universe, if they are stuck at the last step and fail to truly reach the top, are not worth the concern of a god of the universe.

"If I become a god of the universe..."

Star Abyss Ruler stared intently at the Mountain and Sea Realm, then slowly calmed himself down.

"My injuries haven't healed yet..."

He took a deep breath, "It's just a little reptile, not worth risking my injuries. These three little guys can handle it then..."

As the Lord of the Star Abyss, He only needs a single thought to control the Star Abyss to obstruct the Cosmic Tree.

But if we really have to take action, using our own power, or even the cosmic divine authority of Xingyuan, then things will get complicated.

This is also why He is still 'cooperating' with these three little guys, the Three Ancestors.

As the Lord of Star Abyss, He could annihilate these three Lords of Star Abyss with a single thought, but if these three little fellows died, He would have no subordinates to use.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than ten million years have passed.

Over the course of more than ten million years, the Mountain and Sea Realm has been expanding at an astonishing rate, causing the surrounding chaotic air currents to tremble for more than ten million years.

When the Mountain and Sea Realm grew to a diameter of 380 billion light-years, it finally stopped growing.

"A diameter of 380 billion light-years!"

Lin Qing smiled slightly. As the master of the Mountain and Sea Realm universe, he could easily sense the size of the entire Mountain and Sea Realm.

At this moment, the Mountain and Sea Realm has grown to its maximum limit.

It was as if it had touched some kind of constraint or limitation of endless chaos, and could not expand even a little bit further.

Within the universe of the Mountain and Sea Realm, exactly three hundred and eighty divine kingdoms have now been born.

This is the pinnacle of a demigod-level civilization.

"This portion of the origin of the other universe has only been consumed by less than one percent..."

Lin Qing nodded to himself, "If the Mountain and Sea Realm becomes an alternate universe, it can continue to transform by using this alternate universe's origin."

Even if it grows to a diameter of 380 billion light-years, the Mountain and Sea Realm universe is still extremely small compared to the main universe, and cannot be compared at all.

And the Star Abyss and the Cosmic Tree, these enormous alien universes, are comparable in size to the main universe.

"The next step is another universe."

Lin Qing sensed the Mountain and Sea Realm, "But this final step can only be achieved after I break through using the ultimate rules of chaos."

Once a breakthrough is achieved, it means that the final battle will break out completely.

He will stand completely against the progenitor of the World Gods, and may even attract the hidden Lord of the Star Abyss!
Although he didn't know why the Lord of the Star Abyss hadn't made a move yet, there must have been some problem preventing him from acting easily.

otherwise……

With the strength of the Lord of the Star Abyss, he should be able to easily end the war between the Void Gods and the Star Abyss Demons.

"I'm not fully prepared yet..."

Lin Qingwei narrowed her eyes slightly, "There are still some chaotic wonders I haven't visited, and my clone isn't equipped with enough pillar-level cosmic treasures. There's still some room for improvement..."

Now, he and his five avatars are all rulers of high-level divine kingdoms.

In the future, once he makes another breakthrough using the ultimate rules of chaos, his main body and five avatars will also break through at the same time!
of course……

The inheritance of "Chaos Abyss" consists of only one piece of the spirit of the chaotic universe, which can only be cultivated by the original body.

However, the five clones can be used to deal with the progenitors of the World Gods.

"Do everything you can to improve..."

Lin Qing pondered to herself, "Even if I can't improve, I still need to make up for my shortcomings..."

In any case, we've reached a new milestone.

Immediately, a thought struck him—

"Coming to the Future!"
