My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 147 The First Stars Emerge

Li Chen sat cross-legged in the void 700,000 kilometers away from Earth, his body as solid as a rock and his heart as clear as crystal.

The inner world is undergoing the most dramatic transformation since the beginning of time!

The world, which was originally vast and boundless with a flat earth and a round sky, seemed to shrink under the immense power of breaking through to the Emperor level, through extreme compression and reshaping.

The vast territory, spanning millions of kilometers, is being squeezed and compressed inward by an immense force.

The land is no longer flat and boundless.

The edges curl and converge, evolving towards a perfect sphere.

The sharp, golden mountains of the west, the green forests of the east, the blazing lava of the south, the vast, frigid seas of the north, and the thick, fertile earth of the center—

They merged and permeated each other amidst the violent vibrations.

Gold veins sank into the Earth's core, becoming the planet's solid framework and the source of its magnetic field.

The vitality of wood integrates into the newly formed continental shelf and crust, endowing it with the potential to nurture life.

Water's resilience manifests as oceans and atmospheric water vapor cycles that surround the planet.

The raging fire was confined deep within the mantle, becoming the heart of the furnace that drives plate tectonics and volcanic eruptions.

The earth's weight and depth form the foundation upon which all things are supported, stabilizing the shape of the entire planet.

The spacetime structure stabilized after the violent distortion.

The spatial folds were forcibly smoothed and solidified, forming a stable spatial structure inside the planet and a more robust spacetime barrier surrounding the planet's periphery.

The ratio of time flow rate is temporarily out of balance during the dramatic changes.

In an instant, the world seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, and after the planet's structure had initially stabilized, it re-anchored itself to a new and higher proportion—

A thousand years within this world is like a single day outside!

This seems to be the normal time flow in the future world of Emperor-level beings.

The two energies of Yin and Yang no longer clearly divide the world, but are perfectly integrated into the planet's day and night cycle, the seasons, ocean currents and monsoons, maintaining a dynamic balance.

The Thunder Punishment Net completely disappeared into the void, and its authority to punish, purify, and inflict heavenly tribulations transformed into the invisible heavenly rules governing the planet's operation, maintaining the order of this nascent universe.

The most significant change was that the manifested "underworld" palace, carrying the turbid River Styx and the indistinct Bridge of Helplessness, slowly sank amidst the world's violent tremors, eventually sinking into the deepest part of the earth's core and merging with the nascent planetary core.

There, a faint but real "vortex of reincarnation" began to slowly rotate, foreshadowing the birth of the true law of reincarnation in the future.

This process was painful and lengthy. For Li Chen, it was the most severe test of his "Great Freedom" Dao Heart and the most thorough tempering of the foundation of his inner world.

After undergoing terrifying compression, the world, which had been flat and round with a diameter of ten million kilometers, stabilized at a diameter of one million kilometers with a silent roar that seemed to open the heavens and the earth.

A perfectly spherical world has been formed!

It is no longer the internal world of "round sky and square earth", but a nascent planetary world containing infinite possibilities.

Its core is scorching hot, the mantle is surging, the crust is beginning to solidify, a primordial ocean covers most of the surface, and a thin but vibrant primordial atmosphere is forming.

The rules of the world are closer to the real universe, and are more stable and profound, containing growth potential far exceeding that of the past.

But this is only the beginning of the breakthrough.

He has only just stepped halfway to the threshold of the Emperor-level realm.

"Emperor, the beginning of the world's transformation! The foundation of the cosmos shall be laid!"

Li Chen's Dao Heart let out a silent cry.

Just as the planetary world was taking shape, the core of the "origin of the world," compressed to its extreme, exploded like a supernova being ignited.

Expanding!

The world's origin, accumulating boundless power, drove this newborn planet to begin an unprecedented expansion.

The planet's core pulsates violently, and the tectonic plates tear and expand amidst the roar, giving birth to new land and ocean from the cracks.

The atmosphere expands and thickens rapidly outwards, like an inflated balloon.

Beyond the atmosphere, the spacetime barrier that originally enveloped the planet began to extend outward, forming a vast, chaotic outer void region containing faint void energy.

One million kilometers — one million and one hundred thousand kilometers — three million kilometers — five million kilometers —

The expansion is accelerating and intensifying!

Within Li Chen's body, it was as if a universe was growing wildly.

Meanwhile, the universe outside was in an uproar!

With the Earth's outer space, where Li Chen was located, as the origin, a cosmic energy storm sweeping across a range of hundreds of light-years erupted without warning.

"Om one"

The invisible shockwaves, disturbed at the level of laws, swept outwards at a speed exceeding the speed of light.

The solar system will be the first to be affected.

Earth, the Academy of Yanhuang.

Principal Qin Xiaotian and several other leaders were closely watching the grand occasion of the Donghe City Heritage Ladder.

Suddenly, everyone's expression changed drastically, and they looked up sharply at the sky—no, at the entire universe!

"What—what is this?!"

One of the kings' voices trembled.

The once calm starry sky suddenly became "viscous".

The endless starlight seemed to be pulled and twisted by an invisible giant hand, converging into torrents of seven-colored energy that were visible to the naked eye and as solid as a substance.

These torrents surged from every corner of the solar system, and even from the far reaches of deep space beyond the solar system, with their target being the location of Li Chen in outer space.

It's hard to say about ordinary cave heaven realms, but the human king realm is one where one can see through the atmosphere.

Therefore, Li Chen's secluded cultivation location was not hidden; almost all the human kings on Earth knew about it.

In that instant, the entire solar system seemed to have become a giant energy funnel.

At the tip of the funnel lies Li Chen.

Even more terrifying is that this vast energy, capable of instantly vaporizing a planet, vanished into thin air after reaching a certain range around Li Chen, as if it had disappeared into thin air.

"Cosmic energy—reversed?!"

"How far has this affected? How could such a vast amount of energy appear?"

"Won't this affect the Light-year area?"

Qin Xiaotian's pupils shrank to pinpoints, his voice filled with disbelief and awe.

He had no idea that the data he had painstakingly imagined needed to be multiplied by several hundred to reach the actual data.

"It's Teacher Li Chen! He must be breaking through!"

Although he couldn't see Li Chen's location, Qin Xiaotian pointed out the truth almost without any doubt.

"He's absorbing the energy of the entire universe to nourish his inner world?!"

A middle-aged man at the King Realm level trembled: "Emperor Realm—he should be attempting to break through to the Emperor Realm, but this—"

This phenomenon is terrifying! Are the phenomena caused by breaking through to the Emperor-level realm really that exaggerated?!

"So, when he mentioned coming to Earth and the universe to break through, he meant to attempt to reach the Emperor-level realm?"

Among this group of human kings, the only woman trembled, exclaiming, "How long has he been cultivating? This is outrageous!"

Even though she had long been amazed by Li Chen's various legendary achievements, she still couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.

In that instant—

All cultivators on Earth at the Great Cave Realm and above felt that throbbing and oppressive feeling originating from the depths of their souls at the same moment.

They could see the sky enveloped by a band of energy light that was both dazzlingly beautiful and contained destructive power, as if a doomsday miracle had descended.

And mortals and low-level cultivators—

All that could be seen was that the sky had become exceptionally bright and colorful.

It was as if countless auroras were dancing on a cosmic scale, breathtakingly beautiful.

Yet, I also instinctively felt a sense of insignificance and fear stemming from the very nature of life.

"Huh? What's that—"

Suddenly, the only female human king here, "Song Huijing," looked in surprise toward the direction of the inheritance staircase.

From the black hole at the end of the inheritance staircase, something seemed to be drifting outwards.

"That black hole should connect to Teacher Li Chen's inner world. Could it be that during the advancement of his inner world, some power of creation leaked out?"

Her delicate body trembled, and she suddenly transformed into a streak of light and flew over.

"The power of creation?"

The rest of the people, including Wang Dajing, were shocked and quickly chased after him.

"The power of creation? What is that?"

Although Qin Xiaotian was puzzled, he followed immediately.

Then the other teachers from Yanhuang Academy quickly followed suit.

They were originally only responsible for maintaining order, but now they can't care about that; they're fighting for destiny first.

Let the young people stand aside and watch what happens.

Soon, Song Huijing was the first to arrive at the bottom of the inheritance staircase.

Almost at the same time, a wisp of gas, whose color was indescribable, fell down and was caught by her.

In an instant, she felt her body tremble, and streams of visible "black mud" seeped out from her already very fair and delicate skin.

"this----"

She was stunned: "Body impurities? I actually have body impurities inside me?"

That wisp of special energy just now seemed to have the effect of cleansing the marrow and removing impurities.

But the benefits go far beyond that, because she can feel that her foundation is growing and her inner strength is becoming more profound.

"This...this seems to be the legendary Qi of Creation. Does such a thing really exist?"

A teacher from the ancient gods who had joined the Yanhuang Academy said in a trembling voice, "In the previous era, this kind of thing was a treasure of creation, something that even the strongest immortals would fight over, but here—there seem to be many of them."

Because new life-giving energy has fallen again.

"Whoosh—"

Everyone's eyes widened, and they immediately wanted to fly up the inheritance staircase to compete for it, regardless of everything.

However, the next moment, a terrifying pressure descended, and everyone fell to the ground.

Whether it's a contemporary human king or an old god, there's no difference here; they simply can't fly.

Everyone looked at each other, stunned and speechless.

"Just wait patiently and don't try to force your way in. This is the path of inheritance set up by Teacher Li Chen."

Song Huijing took a deep breath: "When he was still at the Human King realm, he was already able to set up a trial of inheritance that was likely no weaker than that set by a supreme immortal. Now that he has advanced to the Emperor realm, his true strength—I simply can't even imagine it!"

The others immediately felt a chill and quickly suppressed their auras, no longer daring to wander around recklessly.

They didn't even dare to fight for it here. Instead, they tacitly chose a location and hoped that the energy of creation would fall to their location.
