Chapter 202 The Abyss Where the Gaze Retracts

Blue Star Harbor, an ordinary spaceship slowly departs.

When they reached a distance of hundreds of light-years from Earth, the spaceship vanished into thin air, and the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Holy Spirit clone appeared.

"Let's just use space travel."

With a slight thought, Su Yuan tore open the space in front of him.

As a Holy Spirit, Su Yuan's ability to tear through space extends far beyond the scope of life on stars at the same level.

If one is a darling of the supreme rules of space, then it is not called tearing space, but rather teleporting across distances by following the fluctuations of space.

Wow!
In the blink of an eye.

Su Yuan then arrived at a place 100,000 light-years away.

"A single space travel, spanning 100,000 light-years?"

A smile appeared on Su Yuan's face. This wasn't even the full force of spatial travel. If it were the full force, a single spatial travel could traverse hundreds of thousands or even millions of light-years.

Of course, engaging in full-force space travel would consume too much mental energy, and no stellar life form would be willing to do so unless absolutely necessary.

Blue Star, Arctic Continent.

Su Yuan watched from afar as the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Holy Spirit clone departed.

"We will arrive at the target alien territory in half a month."

Su Yuan thought to himself that this was also the answer given by the gray mirror, absolutely correct, without any unexpected variables.

"Continue to practice."

Su Yuan pondered for a while, then stopped paying attention.

When a new life form first enters a stellar environment, it is a time of rapid development, and the expansion of its internal world is also the easiest.

"These resources."

Su Yuan immediately took all the resources he had purchased into his inner world, then refined them all, turning them into the purest essence to nourish his inner world.

If the inner world wants to expand, it naturally needs resources as vast as mountains and seas, especially since Su Yuan's inner world is as large as 30 to 40 million miles in circumference, which consumes even more resources.

time flies.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Outside the territory of the Thirty-Six Universe Empires of Humanity, a space was torn apart, and Su Yuan strode out.

"Ahead lies the territory of several major alien races, including the Bifang and Tongyou clans?"

Su Yuan looked into the distance, lost in thought.

After a two-week journey, the Nine-Aperture Exquisite Holy Spirit Avatar finally arrived at the target alien territory.

"And there too."

Su Yuan looked to the side.

It was a vast, pitch-black region, covering billions of light-years, and its influence radiated throughout the entire universe.

"The Abyss, one of the nine forbidden secret realms."

Su Yuan observed carefully.

The forbidden secret realm, the 'Abyss,' contains countless dangers, but also many opportunities, and even contains a supreme treasure that can allow life in the universe to break through to the level of chaotic life.

Countless ages ago, the Primordial Universe Human Empire, whose supreme sage was known as 'the best in defense,' ventured into the 'Abyss' before breaking through to the Chaos Life Form, attempting to obtain the supreme treasure that could aid in the breakthrough.

Unfortunately.

Wuji Sheng failed.

He eventually died in the depths of the abyss.

The existence of the Abyss affects all races in the universe, radiating its unique power outwards every moment.

Those who comprehend and cultivate this power are also known as Abyss cultivators or evolvers.

Compared to the obscure and difficult-to-understand Nine Supreme Rules, the power of the Abyss is much simpler. The closer one gets to the Abyss, the faster one can comprehend and understand its power.

Furthermore, the strength of Abyss cultivators and evolvers is greater than that of mainstream cultivators and evolvers at the same level. Needless to say, the Starry Sky Life stage is basically at the top level among cultivators and evolvers at the same level.

When the stellar life stage is reached, mainstream cultivators and evolvers begin to comprehend the supreme rules, and abyss cultivators and evolvers often gain the upper hand.

Only at the level of a cosmic saint, when facing a mainstream saint who has comprehended a certain supreme rule, does the abyss saint present an evenly matched contest.

As for the supreme being of chaos? To date, no supreme being of the abyss has appeared. The limit for abyss cultivators and evolvers is the cosmic saint.

Furthermore, Abyss cultivators and evolvers, due to their excessive reliance on the Abyss, often become weaker the further they are from it. However, if they are at the edge of the universe, Abyss Saints are in a better position, at least able to maintain basic Saint-level strength.

Abyssal stellar life? They would probably fall halfway down to the level of stellar life.

Most importantly, every cultivator in the abyss is affected by the abyss, and the stronger the cultivator, the greater the influence. Many ancient abyss saints would uncontrollably head to the depths of the abyss and never emerge again.

However, despite the many drawbacks and hidden dangers of Abyss cultivators, the number of Abyss cultivators who evolve is still enormous.

After all, this path of cultivation is easy. Without comprehending the power of the abyss, many abyss cultivators cannot even reach the lifespan of a stellar being, with a maximum lifespan of only 300,000 years.

Comprehending the power of the abyss might allow one to become a stellar life form, or even an abyssal saint.

"The Human Empire of the Cavern Universe is the largest gathering place for abyss cultivators and evolvers within the human race."

Su Yuan thought to himself.

Several supreme beings of Chaos treated the Abyss with great caution, only allowing it to spread within a small area of ​​the Human Empire in the Cavern Universe.

Moreover, even the Human Empire of the Cavern Universe cultivates not only the power of the abyss, but also the power of the Heavenly Cave.

The Heavenly Cave is one of the nine forbidden secret realms alongside the Abyss, and it also radiates its own power outwards at all times.

The abyss created countless abyss cultivators, and the celestial cave also created countless celestial cave cultivators.

The first emperor of the Human Empire of the Cavern Universe simultaneously comprehended the power of the Abyss and the Heavenly Cave, allowing the power of the Abyss and the power of the Heavenly Cave to form a balance within his body, thus entering the realm of Great Sage.

Unfortunately, the first emperor of the Cavern Universe Human Empire, in his later years, still could not escape the call of the Abyss and the Heavenly Cave. His physical body entered the Abyss, and his soul entered the Heavenly Cave, and he never appeared again.

A lot of information surfaced in Su Yuan's mind. Only a few Chaos Supremes among the human race knew about the fate of the first emperor of the Dongyou Universe Human Empire. The top-secret records of the Dongyou Universe Human Empire's royal family also recorded it.

Su Yuan learned about these things from the gray mirror.

Whether they are cultivators from the abyss, cultivators from the heavenly cave, or cultivators from other forbidden secret realms.

It's alright if you don't reach the Saint level, but once you do, your ultimate fate is to uncontrollably enter the forbidden secret realm you're cultivating in.

Then--

It was eaten.

"Ok?"

Just as Su Yuan was remotely observing the forbidden secret realm, the 'Abyss'.

In a hazy, dreamlike state, the dark and deep 'abyss' seemed to sense Su Yuan's gaze and began to look towards him.

Within the universe.

Any life.

When looking into the abyss.

The abyss will also give its gaze back. And once you are looked at by the gaze of the abyss, you will uncontrollably begin to comprehend the power of the abyss, and thus become an abyss cultivator or evolver.

"Looking at me?"

Su Yuan did not look away.

If he were a human, he would naturally not stare so openly into the abyss.

But at the moment.

He is the Holy Spirit! Born of the universe, the 'darling' of the supreme rules of destruction.

What good does it do to gaze into the abyss?
Even the highest being of chaos was unwilling to kill a holy spirit.

Because it would be hated by the universe.

hum~
An invisible yet profound gaze fell upon Su Yuan from the distant abyss.

Only a moment has passed.

The gaze from the abyss quickly receded.

It seemed as if he couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Su Yuan.

It's obvious that 'Abyss' has seen through Su Yuan's identity.

Faced with an existence like the Holy Spirit, which is perfectly aligned with the supreme rules and principles, it is something that the 'Abyss' cannot transform.

As for forced conversion?

Forcibly converting a holy spirit?
That would directly provoke the wrath of the corresponding supreme rules, and in turn, cause the universe itself to be disgusted.

It's no different from the cost of killing a Holy Spirit.

Not only the Abyss, but also the other eight forbidden secret realms are extremely helpless when faced with a Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is one of the few beings capable of making the forbidden secret realm feel 'disgusting'.

Faced with a 'Holy Spirit', one cannot forcibly convert it, nor can one directly kill it; one can only let the other watch.
Normally, it's forbidden realms like the Abyss that disgust other powerful beings. For example, if a Great Sage's offspring accidentally gets tainted by the power of the Abyss and is transformed into an Abyss cultivator, how could that Great Sage not be disgusted?

To be tainted by the power of the abyss and become an abyss cultivator or evolver means that one's potential is exhausted and one can never become a high-ranking member of the human race.

Cultivators in forbidden secret realms are strictly restricted in their activities, and can only operate within the corresponding intermediate-universe human empires.

The three advanced human empires of the universe do not allow the emergence of cultivators from forbidden secret realms. This is to prevent the influence of the corresponding forbidden secret realms from increasing within the human race.

"Aren't you looking at me anymore?"

Su Yuan also noticed that Shen Yuan had withdrawn his gaze, but he wasn't surprised.

Regardless of one's own identity as the Holy Spirit.

The answer was still given by the gray mirror.

All of this gave him enough confidence to face the abyss.

"Beacon Tribe"

Su Yuan did not continue to observe the abyss. He had no interest in it. This path of power was a huge pit. The Chaos Supreme Being of the human race allowed the existence of the Human Empire in the Cavern Universe for other purposes.

Su Yuan, however, did not, so after watching for a while, he headed directly towards the territory of the Bifang Clan.

A few days later.

Su Yuan arrived at a deeper part of the territory where the Bifang tribe lived.

After entering the territory of the Bifang Clan, Su Yuan was extremely careful every time he traversed space, trying his best to minimize the spatial fluctuations caused by the traversal.

Furthermore, after Su Yuan entered the Bifang Clan, his route was planned by the gray mirror. In every place he passed through, there were no Bifang Clan star-level life-force experts, so the Bifang Clan was even less able to detect the spatial fluctuations.

Therefore, even when they arrived at a deeper part of the territory, they were not detected by the powerful members of the Bifang clan.

Compared to the human race's monitoring and defense against other races, the Bifang race is significantly lagging behind. The Yuanling race stellar lifeforms that infiltrated the human empire of the Canglan universe a few years ago were located in a very short time.

Of course, those stellar life forms cannot compare to Su Yuan, but they can still demonstrate the extent to which the human race controls its own territory.

Click~

In a dark, starry sky, ripples appeared in space before it was torn open, a figure stepped out, and then the torn space quickly recovered, as if nothing had happened.

In the distance, a massive planet, dozens of times the diameter of Earth, is slowly hovering and rotating.

This enormous planet exudes a multitude of auras, including life forms from outer space and those from stars. The planet's starports are bustling with spaceships coming and going.

Su Yuan looked at the massive planet in the distance. His entire body was hidden within layers of space and enveloped in an aura of destruction. Even a cosmic saint would find it difficult to detect him unless he specifically looked at this star field.

This method of merging with space and destruction also comes from the instinct of the Holy Spirit of the Nine Apertures, and it was accomplished with a single thought.

"Hijisei"

The name of a vast planet in the distance came to mind for Su Yuan.

Biji Star is one of the eighteen main stars of the Bifang Clan.

Although the strength of the Bifang Clan is not as great as that of the Yuanling Clan, it should not be underestimated. They have formed an alliance with six or seven other alien clans, including the Tongyuan Clan, to jointly face external enemies.

Su Yuan came to Biji Star because there was a large piece of Destruction God Crystal on this planet.

The Destruction God Crystal is a condensation of endless destructive power, which can be of great benefit to him, a 'darling' of the supreme rules of destruction.

"Using Destruction Crystals as the driving energy source for a planetary defense system is simply a waste."

Su Yuan looked at Bi Jixing in the distance and thought to himself.

The greatest use of the Destruction Crystal is to unleash the endless destructive aura within it, and then utilize it to unleash terrifying killing power.

Used for defense?

It's not that it's impossible, but it would be a bit wasteful.

It's like a sharp blade; it can defend, but it's certainly not as effective as a shield of the same level.

"This main planet of the Bifang race has a total of 36,000 interstellar life forms, 937 stellar life forms, 132 peak stellar life forms, and one cosmic saint."

With the help of the gray mirror, Su Yuan had a clear understanding of the number of powerful individuals on Biji Star.

The strongest being on the main star, Biji, is a saint of the Bifang race.

Normally speaking, with a Saint presiding over Biji Star, even if Su Yuan is a Holy Spirit, he wouldn't be a match for a Cosmic Saint before he becomes a Saint.

The Cosmic Saints are cosmic beings, qualitatively different from stellar beings, a distinction even the Holy Spirit cannot surpass.

Moreover, Su Yuan has not yet reached the peak of a stellar life form. Facing a Saint, it would be extremely fortunate if he were not captured alive.

With a sage presiding over it, Biji Star is theoretically beyond Su Yuan's reach. If he dares to make a move, he will be directly suppressed by that Biji Star sage.

Although the Bifang Clan wouldn't dare kill a Holy Spirit, they could easily suppress and imprison them, or 'sell' them to other top-tier clans or forces.

"Ten days later, Jitian will launch a direct war, and the first place where the war will break out will be the front line of the Bifang Clan."

"At that time, the Bifang Clan was shaken and sent many Saints to the front lines to defend against the enemy. Among the Saints transferred to the front lines was the one who was in charge of Bijixing."

Su Yuan gazed at the enormous Biji Star in the distance.

This was also the best opportunity presented by the gray mirror, as the saint on Biji Star had been transferred away, leaving Biji Star in an unprecedentedly weak state.

At that time, Bi Jixing will be completely at his mercy.
