Please be my partner.

This question struck Mellen like a bolt from the blue. He frowned, sensing something amiss, and pressed, "You don't know? The expedition into the starry universe launched by the Celestial Dragon Clan a million years ago?!"

Just as the group looked puzzled, the white-maned wolf suddenly said, "If you're talking about a million years ago, there was indeed a grand gathering of the Council of Ten Thousand Beasts. The ancestral gods of the wolf clan also participated. However, at that time, my strength had reached the peak of the god level, and I was seeking the transformation to the ancestral god level, so I didn't know much about it."

"After I was fortunate enough to achieve the Ancestral God level, the invasion war broke out, and I was conscripted to the battlefield in a daze."

Mellen looked at Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao and asked, "How much do you know about what happened back then? The wolf clan's powerful members couldn't have left without explanation, could they? They must have left some kind of explanation behind them, right?"

Che Yingzhuo stared at Mellen, sneered, and said, "Outsider, get this straight, we're the ones questioning you! Tell us everything you know."

Lan Hao didn't speak, which clearly conveyed the same meaning.

Mellen sighed and said, "I originally wanted to subdue you gradually in a more peaceful way..."

"Remember this, I am not called 'Outsider,' I am the Wolf Lord of this generation of the Wolf Clan, and also your future leader, your king!"

As he spoke, Mellen's voice grew louder and louder, until the last sentence resounded throughout the entire Wolf Lord's Secret Realm.

As time passed, the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm seemed to have been ripped out of reality. A golden river stretched across it, an endless sea of ​​blood engulfed it, space spread, time twisted, and the rules were extracted, disrupted, and reassembled into a completely new form.

Amidst these strange phenomena, a few small ripples appeared, but were quickly covered by the waves.

A few minutes later, the strange phenomenon disappeared. Inside the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm, everyone from god-level experts to newborn cubs was completely bewildered.

The only difference is that those below the god level have absolutely no understanding and remain completely clueless, while god-level experts are terrified and break out in a cold sweat because they have only glimpsed a small part of it.

As for those who could see more Ancestral Gods, they had already knelt down in front of Mellen in a daze.

Mellen calmly muttered to himself, "If you haven't cultivated yourself, seeing me will be like a frog in a well seeing the moon in the sky; if you have cultivated yourself, seeing me will be like an ant gazing at the blue sky..."

"That's the gap between us."

Mellen looked at Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao and said calmly, "I don't care what your ulterior motives are. From today onwards, I am the Wolf Lord, and all members of the Wolf Clan should submit to my command. Do you understand?"

Che Yingzhuo looked dejected and could no longer muster any will to resist.

Lan Hao forced himself to concentrate and said respectfully, "As you command, Lord Wolf."

As for the three ancestral god-level wolves, they knelt down earlier and more thoroughly than Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao.

Mellen thought for a moment and asked, "Among the wolf clan now, are there only a few of you at the Ancestral God level?"

Lan Hao replied, "Yes, Lord Wolf."

Mellen asked again, "Continuing on that topic, when the wolf clan's powerful warriors were conscripted, they must have left some instructions behind, right?"

Lan Hao and Che Yingzhuo exchanged a glance. Lan Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Reporting to the lord, the conscription that year took away most of the wolf clan's elite forces. What followed was the invasion war and the cataclysm. The wolf clan was severely damaged many times during this process, and its strength was almost reduced to one-hundredth. There are not many records of what happened back then."

Che Yingzhuo also said, "Fortunately, the wolf clan has a deep foundation, and with the return of the white-maned wolf, the wolf clan was able to rest and recuperate peacefully in the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm for millions of years and gradually recover its vitality."

As Che Yingzhuo spoke, he also carefully observed Mellen's expression, afraid that his performance would make the Wolf Lord hold a grudge.

Mellen didn't seem to care much about this, or rather, he had anticipated this situation before he arrived.

The wolf clan is notoriously unruly; it would be a miracle if they could be subdued simply by a lineage name.

To put it simply, when the White Mane Wolf returned, even though he was seriously injured, he was still a god-level being. In an era when most gods had already perished, he was a rightful ancestor. Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao always addressed him as "Master".

However, once Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao also reached the Ancestral God level, when they saw the White Mane Wolf again, they immediately dropped the word "sir" and were treated as equals.

Respecting the elderly and caring for the young?

It's important to know that wild wolf packs have a tradition of driving elderly wolves out of the pack and leaving them to fend for themselves!

As Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao recounted their stories, Mei Lun found that many pieces of information didn't quite add up to him.

But it was precisely because of this discrepancy that a vague guess began to linger in Mellen's mind.

Finally, Mellen looked at the white-maned wolf and said, "Tell me everything you know."

The white-maned wolf nodded slightly and said, "Back then, I focused my main energy on the evolution to the Ancestral God level. During that period, although I heard some news from the outside world, I didn't have much energy to pay attention to it."

"I just heard from a few friends that the Council of Beasts is going to make a big move and summon the strongest people from all the races."

"After that, I obtained several key auxiliary materials with the help of my clan, and then I began to evolve and break through."

"Although the probability of an evolutionary breakthrough is very slim, I was lucky enough to complete the advancement and become an Ancestral God. This process took several years."

"Just when I wanted to share this joy with my clan and friends, I discovered that the clan's high-level forces had disappeared without a trace, and the rules of the universe had changed, which is what you call a cataclysmic event. At the same time, I also learned about the invaders. By then, the Council of Beasts had been fighting the invaders for several years."

"In order to find out the situation, I accepted the response of the Council of Beasts and joined the battlefield. The enemy is a completely different supernatural system from us. Their abilities are varied, but in the final analysis, they can still be summarized as the application of rules."

"There's not much to say about what happened after that. Fighting, fighting, fighting, and more fighting... endless fighting! For hundreds of years? Or thousands of years? I can't remember."

"In short, by the time I came to my senses, the battle was finally over, and the invaders had been defeated."

"After that, I received the last order from the Council of Beasts, which told us to return to our respective places to recuperate."

After listening to the white-maned wolf's story, Mellen fell into a long silence.

What happened in the Universe of Myriad Beasts was practically a carbon copy of the Universe of Stars, the only difference being that the roles of attacker and defender were reversed, with the intruders and defenders switching places.

Indeed, Mellen now has every reason to believe that the one that invaded the Beast Universe back then was the Starry Universe!

If you were to say that the powerful beings of the two universes just happened to have the same idea, just happened to gather most of their forces, and just happened to invade each other's universes at the same time, causing them to miss each other, I, Murron, would not believe a single punctuation mark of that nonsense!

It is precisely because of these 'just right' moments that the extraordinary power of the two universes was maximized to suffer the greatest loss, which is too much of a coincidence!

However, it makes much more sense if there is an invisible hand manipulating everything behind the scenes.

And the only one who can control and drive everything is the supreme being high above!

Moreover, it is unlikely that a supreme being from a single universe could accomplish this task alone. After all, if the other party does not cooperate and chooses to defend itself, with its home universe as a geographical advantage, even a supreme being who rashly enters will only meet a tragic end.

So, what exactly is the reason, or rather, what kind of interests, that would lead the supreme beings of both universes to do such a heinous thing?

Based on Mellen's experience and all that was happening, there was only one reason he could guess, and that was...

Cosmic fusion!

Chapter 755 Cosmic Integration and Expansion

Cosmic fusion!

The universe's ascension is an extremely difficult thing, often requiring an extremely long time and a stroke of incredible good fortune.

Once a regular universe grows to the level of a large universe, it accumulates power and cultivates the strongest beings belonging to its native universe. These strongest beings then travel to other universes, bringing back different rules and powers.

In this way, large universes can continue to improve themselves until they break through a certain threshold, complete a complete transformation, and become super-large universes.

This is the most common way to ascend in the universe.

Time has no meaning to the universe, so as long as the universe continues to cultivate one supreme being after another, there will always be a time to reap the rewards.

As for individual beings in the universe, even those who achieve the strongest status are still within the realm of life. They may seem eternal, but they are nothing more than a beautiful flower that will eventually wither and fade.

Unless, of course, they are willing to forever remain under the rules that gave birth to the universe, like flowers in a greenhouse, never experiencing the storms of the outside world.

But how could that be!

Those who achieve the highest level of power must possess a steadfast and forward-looking spirit, constantly striving for progress until they transcend limitations – that is their true pursuit.

The strongest beings help the universe evolve, and they can benefit from both the process and the outcome.

However, this rate of action, which is normal in the eyes of the universe itself, is ultimately too slow for the strongest individuals. If they could make the universe advance by a giant leap in one go, they could also reap huge benefits in the process.

Promoting the merging of the two large universes is undoubtedly the best approach.

With these insights, Murren has essentially figured out the truth of what happened back then.

It's likely that the strongest beings in the Beast Universe and the Starry Universe weren't enemies back then, but rather partners!

They share the same goal: to bring the two universes together!

To achieve this ultimate goal, the most important and fundamental step is to mix enough of the other universe's rules and forces into both universes.

The simplest way to achieve this first step is naturally to bury the superhumans who carry the rules of their native universe in another universe.

In this way, as long as enough extraordinary beings are buried, the rules they carry will take root and sprout in the unfamiliar universe like seeds, absorbing new power to replenish themselves, and at the same time releasing their influence to change the environment!

The gods in the Starry Universe fell into slumber after the war, the inheritance of the Myriad Beasts Universe was automatically perfected, and the cataclysmic changes in the rules of the Myriad Beasts Universe were all caused by this.

Without a doubt, the dragon was one of the participants in the plan, and the expedition of the Beast Universe was nothing more than a sacrifice he threw into the Starry Universe to carry out the plan.

Just like those extraordinary beings from the starry universe who invaded the universe of beasts, perhaps the supreme beings who led them here never intended for them to return alive.

After a long silence, Mellen slowly exhaled.

Although the information we have so far is only corroborating, based on the differences in the current rules between the two universes and the unusual situation observed by the outer universe sea regarding the unnatural proximity of the two universes, it is basically possible to confirm that the matter is almost certain.

Strictly speaking, Mellen himself is a beneficiary of this cosmic integration plan. Without the sacrifices of those from the Beast Universe, there would be no more complete Wolf Tamer legacy in the Starry Universe, and Mellen's path to transcendence would not have been as smooth as it is now.

However, perhaps Mellen's path has not yet come to an end, or perhaps Mellen is still very young and has not yet been tested by a long period of time. At least at this moment, he does not agree with Long and his group's plan!

Leaving aside the initial sacrifices, once the two universes begin to merge, it will inevitably trigger changes at the level of overall rules. At that time, the extinction of all things will not be just a matter of words; the vast majority of life will be destroyed as a result, and only a very few will be able to survive.

To reiterate, the destruction of life is meaningless to the universe itself.

Mellen collected his thoughts. He didn't know how far the plans of the two universe's strongest beings had progressed, but if possible, he wouldn't mind ruining them.

Of course, it's not that Melron suddenly had a sudden surge of saintly compassion, wanting to confront multiple supreme beings for the sake of countless lives in both universes. Rather, his own interests conflict with the integration of the universes, at least until he achieves his goal.

After sorting out his thoughts, Mellen looked at the two men and three wolves and said, "Tell me everything you know about the Council of Beasts, focusing on the three major races: the Heavenly Dragon, the Black Phoenix, and the Nether Tiger."

Che Yingzhuo and Lan Hao exchanged a glance and began to recount their stories one after the other. Although they had not personally experienced the era of the Council of Ten Thousand Beasts, as the strongest among the wolf clan, they had carefully studied the relevant records.

During the narration, the old-timer, White Mane Wolf, would occasionally add to the story.

A day later, witnessed by many god-level powerhouses of the wolf clan, Mellen officially became the new wolf lord.

With this powerful local force under his control, many of Mellen's ideas can now be put into practice.

The first step is to continuously improve the overall strength of the wolf pack.

Although the rules of the Beast Universe have locked away the possibility of the birth of a bloodline of an Ancestral God-level race, it is still possible for an individual to evolve into an Ancestral God-level being.

The wolf-shaped pendant has absorbed the rules of the starry universe and has, to some extent, broken free from the constraints it was under in the universe of beasts. It can now better utilize its inherent abilities to help the wolf clan find the most suitable method of evolution.

Next, Mellen spent a month helping the wolf pack members who had reached the pinnacle of god-level strength find the next stage of evolution. He then added this ability as a reward to the pack's exchange list. As long as enough pack contribution is accumulated, any wolf can obtain a more precise, detailed, and safer method of evolution.

Now, the wolf pack, which was already gradually winning over the hearts of the people because of Mellen's strength, worshipped him even more.

In reality, this meant that Mellen began to harvest a massive amount of Wolf Essence. He immediately poured most of it into the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm, further accelerating the growth and strength improvement of the wolves living there.

Therefore, more and more wolf packs that had been roaming outside began to move into the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm, which meant that they had completely recognized Melon's status and were willing to fully accept his rule.

Even those wolf clans that are still unwilling to go to the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm will send their best wolf cubs to the Wolf Lord's Secret Realm for further training.

Of course, these wolf packs did not reject Mellen as their alpha; they simply wanted to maintain the most basic independence of their own packs, nothing more.

Mellen actually had no experience in managing a large force. Compared to the Wolf Clan now, the forces he had previously built were all small-scale operations.

However, the wolf pack itself doesn't require much attention from Mellen. It has a well-established operating mechanism. Mellen only needs to point out the general direction, and this powerful 'beast' will rush forward and tear apart its target without hesitation.

Under Mellen's command, the wolf pack began to expand on a large scale.

On the one hand, any monster clan within the territory has only two outcomes: submission or destruction; on the other hand, they continuously absorb human forces, integrating them into the wolf clan for their own use.

The wolf pack is inherently an aggressive group. Under Mellen's command, they were like ferocious beasts that had broken free of their shackles, frantically devouring everything around them.

The expansion of territory brought more abundant resources, and with Melen's guidance, stable evolutionary chains emerged one after another, giving wolves below the god level a smoother evolutionary path.

As a result, the overall strength of the wolf clan began to expand exponentially.

At the same time, Mellen did not take on everything himself. His inner universe already housed a large number of subordinates who not only possessed knowledge gathered from various universes, but also had the scientific literacy cultivated by Little Silver.

Research institutes sprang up one after another, subdividing and optimizing numerous evolutionary paths. Every discovery of new knowledge contributes to the overall advancement of the species.

Because he obtained a branch from the Enlightenment Tree, Senlang's comprehension ability underwent a qualitative leap. Although this boost was insignificant to Mellen, it could turn many more people into one-in-a-million geniuses.

The emergence of a massive number of geniuses, each one in ten thousand, has accelerated the growth of the wolf clan.

It's worth mentioning that the Fighting Soul Clan has become a highly sought-after member of the Wolf Clan.

To repay Mellen's help and also to find a powerful backer, the entire Douhun Clan joined Mellen's ranks and promised to forge a divine weapon for him.

However, after further research, Mellen discovered that although the Ruyi Divine Weapon was good, each one required the sacrifice of two members of the Fighting Soul Clan, and the success rate could not be guaranteed. Therefore, he stopped the project and planned to wait until a better solution was found before considering other options.

As time went on, Mellen and his dogs improved their strength too quickly, which meant that despite several breakthroughs in the forging of the Ruyi Divine Weapon, it was still getting further and further away from Mellen and his group.

Now that Mellen has begun to develop the wolf clan's power on a large scale, the new version of the Ruyi Divine Weapon has finally found its place.

The new version of the Ruyi Divine Weapon can be fully companionable and grow together with its owner, with a maximum potential of reaching the divine level.

Moreover, although the accompanying Ruyi Divine Weapon also requires a certain amount of resources to cultivate, compared to other weapons of the same level, the Ruyi Divine Weapon consumes far fewer resources, while its power and compatibility are far superior.

This is practically like opening up a completely new, independent riding area.
