NOVEL WEB Chapter 295: World Expansion 2
In no time, this explosive news spread throughout the Void Sea.
...
...
Starfall Civilization World.
Inside a dark and secret space, space-time was a chaotic distortion.
The Primordial Emperor sat cross-legged, quietly contemplating the changes in space-time, carefully grasping the deeply hidden 'Now Rule', one of the three paths of time.
He had been cultivating for many years, just a hair's breadth away from truly stepping into the threshold of the Now Rule, beginning to master the Space-Time Origin.
But this one point, he did not know when he might succeed, and his Will was also just a hair away from touching the 'True Transformation' level, the universe's limit.
Suddenly——
"Hmm?"
The Primordial Emperor opened his eyes, paused his cultivation, and immediately frowned, "Lin Qing killed the Master of Canggui? How is that possible?"
In his view, this plan was almost certain to succeed.
With the strength of the Canggui Civilization, how could they not defeat a Mountain and Sea Realm civilization that had been around for less than forty thousand years?
Moreover, the strength of the Master of Canggui was such that it should not have been possible for a newly transformed Void Dominator like Lin Qing to kill him!
This made the first step of the plan fail, so how could the rest proceed?
"Unreasonable..."
The Primordial Emperor took a deep breath and immediately decided to summon the Star Abyss Monarch.
Moments later, as an endless space-time storm howled and descended, the colossal and majestic phantom of the Star Abyss Monarch, more enormous than a constant star, also appeared in this secret space.
After the Primordial Emperor explained the situation, the gaze of the Star Abyss Monarch penetrated space-time and began probing.
"Oh?"
The gentle face of the Star Abyss Monarch showed a hint of surprise, "A perfect divine skill containing complete space rules? And a Fire Abyss Clan aura?"
Its other fiercely ruthless face coldly said, "He has a trace of an outside universe aura; it seems his significant progress should be from visiting a relic of a third-level civilization? For example, the closest King Realm to your current era?"
"King Realm relic?" muttered the Primordial Emperor, "Could the King Realm relic provide such great benefits?"
He had also heard of those lucky enough to enter the King Realm relic, but none had made such vast advancements!
"His aptitude and potential, even in a third-level civilization, are at the top tier of talent," the Star Abyss Monarch softly said. "Receiving top rewards is quite normal. It seems one of his avatars likely obtained the Fire Abyss Clan bloodline, coupled with that wonderfully profound Unification Technique of the Primordial Realm, allowing for such progress."
The ruthless face of the Star Abyss Monarch coldly said, "No matter, his strength is still quite lacking compared to yours; you still have a chance."
The Primordial Emperor paused for a moment and said, "But time is running short. With his strength, it would be easy to achieve a Chaos Colored Divine State, and he also has a Seven-Colored Set Divine Artifact. As long as he gathers enough rare materials and has enough luck, he could refine a lifebound Chaos set of divine artifacts."
He frowned, "At that time, I'm afraid I won't be his match either."
His strength was at the twenty-second level of the Star Abyss, one great level higher than Lin Qing. Now, he was, of course, confident in dealing with Lin Qing.
But once Lin Qing possessed a Chaos set of divine artifacts, his strength could immediately surge by a level, not to mention that the lifebound artifact of a Star God was several times stronger than a regular divine artifact.
"You still have enough time,"
the Star Abyss Monarch indifferently said, "Transforming into a Chaos Colored Divine State takes time, and the materials for a Chaos Divine Artifact come from beyond the universe. It will take him, a yet-to-be-transcended fledgling, some time to collect, not to mention the universe's favorite kind of luck."
The Primordial Emperor understood this point.
Once a Star God achieves the Chaos Colored Divine State, they can indeed refine Chaos or even set Chaos divine artifacts, but the demand for refining is very high.
Under normal circumstances, for a Child of Chaos, spending billions of years to create a lifebound artifact is quite normal.
"Regarding bloodline genes, as a Void Dominator, the Primordial Realm can only provide up to five generations of Void Divine Race bloodlines."
"In terms of divine skills, he has also reached his limit."
"As for secret techniques, even with supreme secret techniques, merely he, an as yet non-transcendent life, cannot gather the vast treasures needed to cultivate supreme secret techniques."
The gentle face of the Star Abyss Monarch smiled and said, "It can be said that he has nearly reached his limit in progress. Even after tens of millions of years, unless he refines a lifebound artifact, there won't be much room for advancement."
The Primordial Emperor lightly nodded and said, "But a setting where the Three Ancestors cannot intervene is also needed."
"That's quite simple," the Star Abyss Monarch smiled, "compared to these methods, my Angel Envoy, if you can break through and become the Star Abyss Deputy Monarch, that will be nothing."
...
...
The first civilization war of the Mountain and Sea Realm was over.
Lin Qing had intentions to expand the Mountain and Sea Realm, so he naturally wouldn't choose to give up on integrating the Civilization Battlefield into the Mountain and Sea Realm, and thus did not accept the various conditions offered by the other four civilizations.
"What a vast World Origin!"
As the Secret Realm Master, Lin Qing could clearly feel the rapid growth of the Mountain and Sea Realm's Origin, almost tripling from before!
After all, this Civilization Battlefield was formed by each of the five civilizations splitting off a tenth of their world. Each of the other three civilizations was larger than the Mountain and Sea Realm, with Canggui Civilization being over ten times bigger. Even a tenth of it was larger than the Mountain and Sea Realm!
The world origins of those four civilizations altogether naturally increased the Mountain and Sea Realm's origin several times over.
"The Mountain and Sea Realm can also expand to three times its past size..." Lin Qing thought delightedly.
The limit of the Void Secret Realm's growth is entirely dependent on the structure and strength of the World Origin. A world origin composed of complete space rules becomes a Great World secret realm. As the origin strengthens, the world can continue to grow.
Of course...
If it were beings like the Three Ancestors, transcendent from the universe, they could change the structure of the World Origin again, transforming the secret realm into a Holy Land that transcends space-time.
To go a step further, that would mean a pocket universe outside the transcendent cosmos.
"The Mountain and Sea Realm has a long journey ahead..."
Lin Qing sensed the grateful and joyous emotions transmitted by the Will of the World Origin of the Mountain and Sea Realm, expressing its emotions as if a child clinging to its parents, and couldn't help but smile.
"Regrettably, with civilization wars occurring every 380 years, who knows when it will be the Mountain and Sea Realm's turn again..."
He suddenly realized that the frequency of the civilization wars was somewhat too low. Even once every 380 years, among over 8,000 second-level civilizations in the Void Sea, it could take hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to come around to the Mountain and Sea Realm again.
However, this is, after all, the operational rule of the Void Sea, not something he can control.
"Currently, the largest Void Secret Realm in the Void Sea is the Starfall Civilization, hundreds of times the size of a standard Great World. If we could win against the Starfall Civilization in a civilization war, that would be a huge profit..."
Lin Qing mused to himself, then slightly shook his head, "The current Mountain and Sea Realm can't yet defeat the Starfall Civilization, nor can I kill the Primordial Emperor..."
He didn't concern himself with the heated discussions outside about the Mountain and Sea Realm and him as the Secret Realm Master, casually forming an avatar to attend the Mountain and Sea Realm's victory celebration, he once again began contemplating how to kill the Primordial Emperor.
"To kill the Primordial Emperor, to surpass that Immortal Realm Child of Chaos, and ultimately the Chaos God, I still have three points to improve."
"First, genetic bloodline, there are clues to the fourth-generation bloodline of the Void Divine Race in that third-level civilization relic hidden in the Void Sea..."
Lin Qing slightly narrowed his eyes, "It's said that the fourth-generation bloodline of the Void Divine Race is extremely miraculous, and the Genetic Index can entirely reach the universe's limit, which also aids in achieving the Chaos God..."
"Second, learn another supreme secret technique, which means waiting, as the next inheritor has not yet been born..."
"As for the third, it's the lifebound divine artifact."
Lin Qing pondered, "Chaos Colored Divine State, materials beyond the universe, and luck at the universe's favored level, none can be lacking. However, based on the experience from simulating the future, it shouldn't take too long..."
He thought for a long while, then decided: "There's no need to go to the Cosmic Battlefield of the Void Divine Race and Star Abyss Demon Clan. The efficiency of exchanging treasures for military merit is too low. After a while, I'll go to that third-level civilization relic..."
