Meng Chuan still remembers that when he first returned to the playground of Yuncheng No. 2 Middle School from the prehistoric world, he tried to use his divine sense to explore the interdimensional teleportation stone.

That time, his divine sense was almost pulled into that bottomless devouring force.

At that time, he was already in the late stage of Quasi-Saint, and his divine sense was strong enough to cover the entire Milky Way. But in front of that stone, he was like a child peering into an abyss!

Later, he tried to destroy it with brute force, but when he slapped it down, the stone didn't budge and didn't even leave a scratch.

With his strength at the time, let alone a rock, even a planet would have been shattered into pieces with a single palm strike.

Something's not right about that rock.

He also tried to store it in a storage magic item, but failed.

Later, after hearing about the existence of the "Supreme Emperor Weapon" from Duan Lingtian, he once wondered if that thing could be the Supreme Emperor Weapon.

As for the Great Dao Emperor Weapon, according to Duan Lingtian, it should be comparable to the Primordial Innate Treasures. The God-Slaying Spear in his hand is an Innate Treasure. Although its power is strong, it is still within his comprehension.

Only that weapon, which was suspected to be comparable to a primordial treasure of chaos and a legendary supreme imperial weapon, could give him that mysterious, unpredictable feeling that was completely beyond his comprehension.

Now, having learned that the Great Emperor's War eight hundred years ago shattered two supreme imperial weapons, a certain guess in his mind began to become clearer.

Those interdimensional teleportation stones on Blue Star are very likely fragments of the Supreme Emperor Weapons that were shattered in that battle!

However, who was the original owner of that supreme imperial weapon?

Why did its fragments end up on Earth?

Why can the interdimensional teleportation array it sets up only send pure-blooded Blue Star people to the myriad worlds?

Meng Chuan had too many questions in his mind, but he didn't voice them.

He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and casually asked, "Fellow Daoist Lei Hong, haven't you heard more details about that battle eight hundred years ago? For example, who were the Great Emperors who participated? Why did they fight?"

Lei Hong shook his head and picked up his teacup as well: "That battle broke out too suddenly."

He held his cup, his gaze fixed on a point in the void, as if recalling the scene from that time.

After several breaths, he continued, "At that time, I was still in the Weiyang Star Region, which was several super star regions away from that battlefield."

"Logically speaking, at such a distance, no matter how intense the battle was, the sound should have barely reached here."

He paused, lowering his voice slightly, "But when that aura reached me, I felt completely frozen!"

"It was a chill that surged up from the depths of my soul... I was standing in the secret chamber of the Wind and Thunder Holy Land, surrounded by layers of arrays that kept me at bay, but that aura still penetrated everything, leaving me unable to even move a finger."

"That feeling only lasted for a few breaths, but to me it felt like tens of thousands of years. When the sensation dissipated, I found my back was soaked in cold sweat."

He put down his teacup and gave a bitter laugh: "Even with my current strength back then, I felt as weak as an ant in the face of that aura!"

"I later asked around, but I didn't get any useful information."

"All we know is that the area was turned into a dead zone. The dozen or so nearest super-star systems completely vanished from the star map, leaving not even ruins. It was as if an invisible hand had wiped them off the face of the universe!"

"As for who the emperor who participated in the war was, and why the war broke out—nobody knows, and nobody has found out anything."

Meng Chuan listened in silence, his fingers gently stroking the rim of his teacup.

More than a dozen super star regions have completely disappeared from the star map!

Two supreme imperial weapons were shattered!

Eight hundred years ago!

Eight hundred years ago, the interdimensional teleportation stone descended upon Earth!

Is the overlap in timing really just a coincidence?

He had a vague premonition...

There must be some connection between these two things!

However, he doesn't have enough information yet, and he can't see the thread that connects everything.

He didn't press further, but instead asked, "What's the name of the super star region within the Weiyang Star Region?"

"Tianyan Star Region".

Lei Hong put down his teacup. "This kind of super star field is quite different from large star fields like our Weiyang Star Field, as well as the medium and small star fields below it."

"The latter three star regions are characterized by numerous independent factions, each governing its own territory and with no one able to control the others. But the super star region is different—it has an absolute ruler, the domain lord!"

"The domain lord of a super star domain controls the economic lifeline, resource allocation, and cultivation order of the entire star domain. The higher-level star domains below must pay tribute to him in taxes every once in a while."

Lei Hong chuckled self-deprecatingly as he said this: "In our Weiyang Star Region, regardless of which power the industries belong to, every now and then an envoy sent by the domain lord will investigate taxes, and at the same time, we also need to pay a considerable amount of taxes to the Tianyan Star Region."

"What about medium-sized star systems like the Aurora Star System?"

"No need." Lei Hong waved his hand. "The super star system doesn't care about the meager tax revenue from medium and small star systems."

"Firstly, the distance is too far, and the management cost is too high; secondly, the output of those star fields is nothing compared to that of a super star field."

"So we simply won't accept it and let them do what they want."

Meng Chuan nodded thoughtfully.

He thought of the blue planet, the Milky Way, and that remote, spiritually barren starry sky.

It is precisely because it was not valued that the secrets of Earth have been preserved to this day.

"How are the domain lords of the Super Starfields chosen?" Meng Chuan asked again.

"As long as you can pass the Star Tower's assessment and obtain the title of 'Immortal Venerable,' you will have the opportunity to become the domain lord of a super star field," Lei Hong said.

"Star Tower? What's that?" Meng Chuan asked curiously.

"Legend has it that they are colossal towers connecting to the very origin of the universe, with one in each super star field, and they are said to have existed since the beginning of the universe."

Lei Hong's tone became more serious. "The tower contains the will of the Great Dao of the Universe. As long as you can pass the test inside the tower, you can obtain the title of 'Immortal Venerable'."

"After obtaining the title of Immortal Venerable, you can challenge the domain lord of any super star field."

"If you succeed in the challenge, you can replace your opponent and become the new domain lord!"

"The defeated domain lord must cooperate with the handover, or he will be crushed into dust by the will of the Great Dao of the Universe!"

"This is also one of the rules governing the operation of our universe..."

"The position of Domain Lord in a Super Starfield—the strong rise, the weak fall!"

After listening, Meng Chuan nodded thoughtfully.

He picked up the teacup and found that the tea had gone cold, but he still took a sip.

The tingling sensation of the cooled Leiyin tea became even more pronounced, as if countless tiny electric currents were dancing on the tip of the tongue.

"In other words, as long as you obtain the title of Immortal Venerable, you can challenge the Domain Lord..."

"By defeating the opponent, one can gain the approval of the will of the universe and become the ruler of a super star field?"
