My portable grandfather refreshes every week

The Eighth Apostle is completely dead, hunted to death by the monsters of nothingness. Not only the monsters of nothingness, but even his own immortal power betrayed him, killing him completely in this subspace.

Even the subspace where the Eighth Apostle was located was completely devoured by the void monster. Only then did the monster satisfy its appetite and continue to submit to Xue Lude's body.

A monster of nothingness...

This is actually just Xue's Law's perception; in essence, it's just a huge void. However, in Xue's Law's perception, it is seen as a monster that keeps devouring and chasing, and thus it becomes that monster.

The Mist Council convened once again.

This time, the council was even more silent; no one spoke, for the Eighth Apostle was dead.

First the Ninth Apostle, then the Twelfth Apostle, and now, even the Eighth Apostle, whose combat power was close to that of the top apostles, has died in an unknown subspace.

This caused a tremendous uproar in the Mist Council, whose membership had remained largely unchanged.

The eighth apostle was basically an old friend of theirs. Those who knew Him understood just how difficult it was to kill him. As long as He wanted to survive, even the first three apostles couldn't do anything to Him.

This is the power of immortality. In essence, the Eighth Apostle has split into billions of Lich Kings. Even if his original body dies, as long as any one of the Lich Kings is still alive, he can be reborn.

However, this monster, which relied on the power of immortality, eventually died from the backlash of immortality and the pursuit of nothingness, which caused it to be completely destroyed.

Therefore, if the enemy could even kill the Eighth Apostle silently in the subspace, then it remains to be seen how many of them have a stronger survival ability than the Eighth Apostle.

This also means that any one of them could die at any time!
Therefore, the meeting was devoid of arguments or mutual accusations, instead falling into a deathly silence.

Xue's Law, on the contrary, was the most indifferent. He was even interested in starting to look for his next prey. Was it that reckless No. 11? Or No. 7, who came before him?
Or perhaps, the person beside you is Number 10, who has countless connections to Earth?
He began to choose his next prey.

At the same time, after Xue Law truly reached the quasi-5th level, he gradually understood why the Mist Council held meetings every 7 days.

Essentially, what meets every 7 days is not the Mist Council, but the Warp Tide.

This primordial subspace energy rises at this time every 7 days. The timing is very fixed, and the tidal period is very short, only a little over an hour. However, the benefits gained in this one hour are even greater than those gained from seven days of ascetic practice.

Therefore, the apostles discovered early on that this time period was the most efficient for absorbing energy from the warp. So, they would stay in the warp at this time every year. Over time, the Lord of the Mist set this time period as their common time for cultivation.

Then, as the number of members increased, this time has now become a fixed time for the council to clock in.

These were all told to Xue by the 10th Apostle, who was completely hidden in the mist. Although everyone else was very quiet, the two of them were communicating with each other through their consciousness.

Xue's Law once questioned whether the Fourth Apostle was a person from nearly 100 million years ago, while the entire Mist Council was estimated to be hundreds of millions of years old. Yet they still maintained a frequency of communication every 7 days. Was that too frequent for them?

Now I understand that communication was not the main purpose at all. This time was originally meant to be a period of time to absorb blood from the subspace, and all communication was secondary.

As for why there is an energy tide in the subspace every 7 days.

The explanation for the number 10 is that because the King saved the universe at this time, this period is called a God's Day or a Great Day, which is also a universal measurement method.

When converted to Earth, one Sunday is exactly a 7-day period.

At the beginning of each God's Sunday, a subspace energy tide rises, which is why everyone, whether apostles or starships, believes in the King, because the King's power manifests once every 7 days.

However, this energy tide can only be felt by those at the Apostle level or above, which is also the threshold for becoming an Apostle.

The first person to eat the fruit, no matter how weak they were before, can ascend to the near-5th rank. And once they have digested the power of the fruit, they can step into the true 5th rank.

After that, above the 5th rank, one must slowly cultivate one's power. There are three ways for the apostles to cultivate their power: first, by absorbing the energy of the subspace tides; second, by cultivating the fruits of the divine tree; and third, by further gaining control over the authority.

In other words, all apostles are essentially the same in terms of their status, with no qualitative difference. However, the difference in quantity is enormous. An apostle who has lived for tens of millions of years is far stronger in quantity than Xue's Law, who has just become an apostle.

Just like water, Schrödinger's Law is like a small pond, while the difference between the apostles at the forefront is like the Mediterranean Sea.

As for the 6th rank, it might be the level of a Mimic King. Xue Lude doesn't know for sure. Perhaps the power above the 6th rank is beyond Xue Lude's current understanding. He can only guess.

It's also possible that above the sixth order, this unit of measurement becomes completely meaningless.

Just as this system of classification is only used for a rough measurement, many worlds don't actually have multiple ranks; they are simply divided into true gods, demigods, and myths...

This so-called stratification is merely Xue's own understanding of the division of forces in the entire universe.

Xue Dinglu didn't know that while these apostles were constantly moving closer to the power of the Venerable King, the form that was truly closest to the Venerable King might be the 6th rank.
He didn't realize that it was too far away for the time being.

"That's about enough time. The top six apostles, stay here. I have something to discuss with you. The rest of you may leave," the Lord of the Mist said, announcing the end of the exchange.

They left immediately on the 11th, and also left directly on the 7th.

The Tenth Apostle looked at Xue's Law and asked, "Want to come to me? You may have guessed it already, we are of the same origin, I am also a creature of Earth."

Xue's Law fell silent.

The invitation on the 10th might be an invitation between fellow villagers, or it could be a trap?
Xue Lude understood that his mother had set up a prison specifically to imprison the strange fifth-order beings on Earth, and that the Tenth Apostle was the warden of those strange fifth-order beings.

Can he be trusted?
Trust my ass!

The Tenth Apostle and Mom haven't reported in a long time. Who knows what the situation is like over there? Xue Law might be treated differently if he went there.

As for this 10th apostle, Xue Law had previously suspected that it might be Athena, but later ruled that out. As for who it might be, Xue Law can only leave it as a question mark.

However, it's highly likely that the former Athena is now with the Tenth Apostle.

But he will go to number 10 later, not now, but after he has made all the necessary preparations.

After politely declining Number 10, Xue Dinglu also left the Mist Council. He actually set his sights on Number 11, a battle maniac who was said to have been able to beat up the Ninth Apostle after his recent ascension.

However, No. 11 did not cause any natural disaster, and Xue's Law could not find its exact location or find any evidence against it. As for the Lord of the Mist allowing the top six to remain, Xue's Law guessed that it was probably just the Lord of the Mist wanting to take some countermeasures.

……

When Xue Dinglu woke up in his own bed, he found that Su Su in his consciousness space was no longer just scrolling through her phone all day like a lazy bum.

She started thinking about her outfits, no longer just the same old shrine maiden outfit. Instead, while Xue was on Earth, she went on a shopping spree on Taobao, buying a lot of strange and unusual clothes to wear and decorate her dorm room.

The delivery addresses were all at Xue Daolu's home, so Xue Daolu stopped worrying about that. As long as she was happy, that was fine. He was finding this little assistant quite convenient for the time being, although she would sometimes act crazy for no reason and inexplicably lie about her body measurements.

But for Xue, it was already the little helper that could give him the greatest assistance, after all, Margaret's Pure Land ability was too useful.

The chat group on the other side has been very active lately.

Xue Law has been thinking about how to kill the Eighth Apostle for the past two days, so he hasn't had much time to chat in the group.

He looked at them and, wow, they were all photos of kids from all over the world.

Although the pictures of kids posted in every world are different, Xue Law can recognize them all as "Doctor Xue" at a glance.

The method of soul transfer still has many problems. However, these worlds have bought countless backups of souls. If a save file fails, they can immediately reload and start over. This has actually allowed them to generate quite a few good save files.

So now, they've all started showing off their kids.

For example, on the Holy Magic Star, they spend their days showing off how "Doctor Xue" became a great medical mage and pioneered the medical system in their world.

Another planet unknown to Doctor Xue is called "Orc Star," where he keeps showing off that Doctor Xue has become the king of a tribe and married several princesses...

Xue Law: "..."

Although it's abstract, this person seems to have some ulterior motives.

In the end, when Doctor Xue Shi returned from all the heavens and myriad worlds, everyone else said how they created an era, but you were the only one who was dragged back to the secret room by the orcs and became a star slave, right?
Looking at the chat logs filled with posts showing off children, Xue Law felt like he had entered not some cross-world chat group, but a multi-celestial moms' group. Everyone was talking about how to raise an account, how to raise Doctor Xue to SR strength, and some planets were even trying to raise him to SSR level strength.

Meanwhile, Mother Earth hasn't been resting lately. She's been acting as a strategist, giving advice to everyone showing off their kids. She participates in every topic about showing off kids, giving the impression that she, as the biological mother, is offering advice to the adoptive mothers.

Xue Law: "..."

There are even planets that have started to release strategy guides, such as "How to quickly raise a prisoner to mythical level" and so on.

It's very abstract. Xue's Law can't figure out the thought process of these planets for the time being. Although he came up with this bad idea himself, just to extract resources as quickly as possible, the current development has obviously exceeded his expectations.

However, let them raise it as they please... Xue Law believes in his other self. Although they are completely different people, they were once merged together and their thoughts were one. He knows that even his other self is exactly the same as him.

Another version of themselves, but with nothing at all, the young couple tried tens of thousands of methods before finally finding a bacteriophage capable of devouring the divine tree.

The young couple tried tens of thousands of methods, spending all the money they had swindled on this project, but they never considered giving up.

Perhaps Doctor Xue agreed to marry his assistant because she was the only one who supported his crazy project that yielded no profit.

Just as Xue was looking at the chat history and thinking about many things, a sudden private message brought Xue back to reality.

Abdullah Hassan: Do you have some time recently? Take some time to give you my legacy. In three days, I will join forces with the Starfleet to launch a live broadcast exploring the deepest part of the warp under the power of the Mimic King.

Sage (Second Generation): Hassan-senpai, you've lost control of the Void...?

Abdullah Hassan: Well, I can't control myself anymore. I'll probably be completely swallowed by nothingness in about a year or two. I might as well end it sooner. At least I can still control my body and choose how I die.

Hassan seemed to have a very optimistic attitude. He talked about when he would die as casually as if he were talking about what to eat for dinner.

But Xue Dinglu couldn't relax. He thought of the people who used laughter to fight against the void, and he thought of this senior who had fought against the void for countless epochs. In three days, he would face his end.

Although this was the end he had chosen, Xue Lude didn't know why, but perhaps he understood once again the backlash of power.

The ethereal monster is finally catching up with Hassan. What about me?

Xue Dinglu didn't know, but he still told himself not to think too much about it and to consider everything after killing all the apostles.

Sage (Second Generation): I'm going to the masquerade ball in two days.

Abdullah Hassan: Good
And that was the end of it.

Hassan only said "okay" before logging off, and his avatar went completely gray in the chat group.

For some reason, Xue Law had a feeling that this was the last time Hassan would log on in the chat group, and his gray avatar might never light up again.

He took a deep breath and looked at the still lively chat group. Super Iron Curtain Star posted a thread titled "How to Raise an SSR God-Level Talent," which attracted a large number of people to click on it.

Little did they know it was a paid post, and quite expensive at that, which led to a huge outcry against the Iron Curtain, but people around the world still silently paid up.

Blue Star: Oh no, how could I forget such a great way to make money!

Xue Law: "..."

It was 4 a.m., and he looked up at the starry sky, his mind in turmoil.

Hassan has been caught up by the monster of nothingness...

Three days later, he would embark on his exploration to the edge of the warp, the final gift he could leave for others. (End of Chapter)
