Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 354 Seeking Help from the Founder of the Giant Axe

Sitting cross-legged on the lawn, gazing at the eight beast god paintings floating in the sky, Minghai fell into deep thought.

These images of beasts and gods are the basic units for the operation of the laws of the universe.

Everything in the primordial universe—the birth and destruction of galaxies, the void and matter, the trajectories of planets and galaxies—is derived from these eight fundamental units.

Just like the world of mathematics, no matter how vast, profound and mysterious it may be, it is all derived from 123456789.

Studying the Eight Great Beast Gods Diagram and exploring the mysteries of the universe is just like starting with the simple numbers 123456789 to study mathematics!

As you can imagine, it was incredibly complicated!

It is no longer possible to achieve significant progress in a few decades or centuries as we did before.

unless……

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Minghai pondered silently.

"Unless one masters the laws of runes and embarks on the path of rune cultivation, one can simplify complexity, efficiently advance the research of secret techniques, gradually grasp the operating principles of the laws of the universe, and move from simple law comprehension and secret technique creation towards the evolution of the universe!"

Minghai pondered to himself.

In the original timeline, Luo Feng's increasingly smooth cultivation in the later stages was inseparable from his arduous cultivation in the Starry Sky Beast God Small Universe, through which he analyzed complex laws and secret patterns, and ultimately embarked on the Great Dao of Secret Patterns.

Compared to this, comprehending the 'Heart of the Beast God' and creating the ultimate technique of the Lord of the Universe is nothing.

After all, it was guided by the God-King, who had a broad vision and far-reaching perspective, far surpassing the powerful beings of the primordial universe and the cosmic sea.

Although Minghai also created the ultimate technique of the Lord of the Universe and mastered the inheritance of the Eight Beast Gods, and created corresponding ultimate techniques of the Lord of the Universe, he did not completely master the laws of secret patterns and embark on the path of secret patterns.

He was only able to create the ultimate technique of the universe master in a short period of time by relying on a higher level of life, a soul at the level of the universe master, and a powerful will that is close to that of the strongest person in the universe, and a thinking speed that far surpasses that of Luo Feng, who is at the immortal realm.

In terms of the path of laws and secret patterns alone, he hasn't even entered the door.

To truly embark on the path of secret runes, delve into the Beast God Diagram, and gain a detailed understanding of various law runes, this process is indispensable!

The laws and mysteries are endless, and even for the Lord of the Universe, it is not a simple matter to delve into them and understand them in detail.

It would have been impossible without millions, even tens of millions of years of exploration and research.

But where would he find so much time?
Ten thousand years later, Luo Feng will emerge from the Starry Sky Beast God's microcosm. More than a thousand years later, the 'Broken East River' inheritance will be born, and the Primordial Universe and the Cosmic Sea will enter a new development track.

If he cannot master the Great Dao of Secret Patterns before then, even if Minghai's comprehension is higher than Luo Feng's, he will inevitably be overtaken by Luo Feng in the future, and the gap will only widen.

This is not possible!

How can a grandfather be overtaken by his grandson!
"Time, I need time!"

With a wave of his hand, he dispersed the surrounding beast god images, and Minghai frowned in deep thought.

……

virtual universe.

"Leng Jian, you were looking for me?"

The rugged, savage-looking founder of the giant axe looked at the Underworld Sea and laughed:

"This is the first time you've contacted me. So, what's up?"

"Giant Axe, I need your help with something!"

Minghai said:

"I plan to enter your microcosm to cultivate for ten thousand years. During this time, I hope you can accelerate the flow of time within your microcosm, ideally ten thousand times faster than the outside world!"

"Ten thousand times? Ten thousand years?"

The founder of the giant axe opened his eyes wide, shaking his head like a rattle-drum for a long time before stopping and saying:
“Cold Sword, I can indeed adjust the time inside my microcosm, but the greater the difference between the speed of time flow inside my microcosm and the outside world, the more my microcosm's essence is consumed!”

"Within a hundred times the speed of time passing in the outside world, the loss of the microcosm's origin is not significant, and it can be replenished through natural recovery!"

"When the consumption exceeds one hundred times, the rate of depletion of the microcosm's origin will increase significantly. Especially after a thousand times, maintaining this for ten thousand years is equivalent to losing the microcosm's origin of a top-tier treasure!"

"To maintain this for ten thousand years, at a time flow rate ten thousand times faster than the outside world, consumes the essence of one's own universe, and its value is comparable to a supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm!"

"Such a waste!"

The Giant Axe Founder shook his head and said, "Cold Sword, for a master of the universe, time means nothing. Wasting so many resources to buy time is completely not worth it!"

"With your talent, you should be able to create the strongest ultimate technique within ten thousand epochs, and at most a billion epochs, you should be able to create the strongest fusion ultimate technique!"

"A mere billion epochs is nothing; it will pass in the blink of an eye. There's no need to waste resources comparable to the most precious treasures in the highest realms!"

"..."

The dark sea is speechless.

It's gone in the blink of an eye again.

Come here, turn your head so I can see if it takes a billion epochs.
He muttered a complaint to himself, but Minghai did not refute it.

He knew that for beings like the Giant Axe Founder or the Two-Faced Ancestral God, billions or tens of billions of epochs were nothing; time was worthless.

Everyone knows that the strongest beings in the universe can adjust the speed of time flow, but there are almost no people in the original universe who actually use the time flow difference to cultivate.

That's the reason.

In the primordial universe, time was worthless!

Wasting precious resources comparable to the most powerful treasures in the highest realms in exchange for 100 million years of cultivation time is considered a wasteful act by all the strong.

The Starry Sky Beast God was willing to do this for Luo Feng because he owed a favor to the guest sitting on the mountain, and he had no choice but to do so in order to repay the favor.

For the sake of humanity, the founder of the giant axe has always lived a frugal life. How could he possibly give up so many resources just to give the Underworld Sea an extra hundred million years of cultivation time?

Originally, the reason why the creator of the giant axe increased the speed of time flow within the microcosm to ten thousand times was to facilitate the study of the 'Rhinoceros Emperor Bureau'.

Since it concerns whether the human race can seize the 'Eastern River' inheritance, it is only natural to spend precious resources comparable to the most powerful treasures in the highest realms.

But now, without a particular reason, the founder of the giant axe would never waste it like that.

Left with no other choice, Minghai had to settle for second best.

"Giant Axe, since maintaining a time flow rate ten thousand times faster consumes so many resources, then forget it!"

Minghai said:

"How about a thousandfold increase? If it lasts for ten thousand years, then I'll consider it an apology from you for a top-tier treasure!"

"Leng Jian, do you really want to speed up your cultivation time that much?"

Looking at the Dark Sea, the giant axe said helplessly:

"I know you've only been cultivating for less than 100,000 years, and you might think that a million epochs or a billion epochs is too long, but you should know that for even a universe lord, let alone a universe venerable or an immortal, this amount of time is nothing!"

"The next opening of the Primordial Star will take more than 10 billion epochs. During this period, you will have almost no chance of obtaining a top-tier treasure!"

Minghai had a bit of a headache.

He knew it wasn't that the creator of the giant axe was stingy, but rather that, in his view, it was indeed unnecessary to waste a top-tier treasure in exchange for cultivation time.

As I said before, in the primordial universe, time was practically worthless.

This is due to mindset, and has nothing to do with being stingy.

"Giant Axe, I have a reason to do this, please help me this once!"

Helpless, Minghai tried his best to find reasons to plead.

"Ugh!"

Seeing that Minghai insisted, the giant axe could only sigh helplessly and say:

"Alright, since you insist, then so be it. However, you still have to give me the top-tier treasure. You don't need to owe me; you can owe the clan!"

"Thank you!"

Minghai expressed his sincere gratitude.

The founder of the giant axe was not a weak-willed person who would soften his heart after a few requests. He simply always protected the strong human race and tried his best to meet all their demands.

This is not only a favor, but also an expression of care and concern; we must express our gratitude!
