Genesis: Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 288 Desperate Remains, Underwater World

The massive floodwaters, containing astonishingly vast energy, surged in.

Just when everyone thought they were about to die, the flood seemed to pour into another unknown space, was collected by a cloth bag, and disappeared without a trace.

"We're not dead?"

"Did we enter some kind of void world through this mysterious ocean?"

"Could it be that we've entered a world of death?"

Some powerful figures continued to discuss it.

Some people have even tried to use their divination methods to predict these powers.

Unfortunately, the divination results were completely useless.

But they also received the complete message: "In this world, only God, the goddess of fate, and the immortal deity are beyond the ability to divine. It really is related to them!"

"Is it possible that yet another conceptual world has emerged?"

"The Age of Gods is becoming increasingly mysterious and awe-inspiring."

While everyone was discussing it, the ancient land of immortality underwent a tremendous change.

The immortal deity reached out and slowly tore apart the area of ​​the ancient tree of immortality, causing it to sink into the sea like an island.

As the ripples rolled in circles.

The entire area associated with this ancient tree of immortality has been submerged into a brand new spatial ocean.

"Not bad." Liu Jun nodded slightly as he watched this scene, his main goal being to steal water and get something for free.

The Sona civilization, as described by others, struggled so much to create an artificial ocean, yet they succeeded by simply creating one in their own mushroom soup.

That's just how ridiculous it is, like cheating.

Seeing this, Amber Swallowtail and the others couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this our new home?"

"You'll get used to it."

The God of Longevity said, "Now that the mythological age is growing stronger and stronger, even the God of Death is about to appear. We must move our secluded place here so that we can enjoy eternal peace."

The other butterflies laughed happily upon hearing this, finding it quite reasonable.

They are all kind-hearted and don't want to be disturbed.

And they also had some vague concerns.

Death is the opposite of the immortal god!
The relocation of the immortal deities' residences today may also be a precaution against the impending appearance of the god of death.

Then, Liu Jun thought for a moment,

"I will imbue your bodies with spatial power, and you will have the ability to swim in and out of this ocean at will."

"But this divine power will be ineffective once it is exhausted. I will use the new divine power to continuously regenerate the spatial divine power within your bodies."

No sooner had they spoken than these butterfly leaders discovered a mysterious power within their bodies.

Continue.

Liu Jun spent three or four days tidying up this spatial ocean, making it perfectly flat beneath the planet in his mushroom soup.

This will make it easier for others to transfer and teleport through this spatial ocean in the future.
Soon, the butterflies began to adapt to the environment.

Not only do they spin cocoons here, but they also fly and dance in space, becoming colorful butterflies that roam the ocean of space.

This day.

The Angel of Truth also entered this space-sea area that was being transformed and constructed, and exclaimed in admiration:

"I had guessed before that it might be you, as an immortal deity, who caused that strange phenomenon in the heavens and earth."

God obtained lower-level spatial divine power from the immortal deities.

It's quite reasonable for an immortal deity to possess a high-level spatial artifact.

"You came just in time."

The immortal deity glanced at the other party and said, "You have the divine position of controlling spatial storage. This ocean of space can be used as a storage room in the future, so that all living beings of the era can store their things here."

The Angel of Truth nodded: "This is my divine duty, and I will naturally do it."

From then on, the Angel of Truth transformed into the Angel of Space, adding bricks and tiles to this ocean of space.

Liu Jun also has new laborers here.

Two short years have passed.

The entire ocean space presents a scene of prosperity.

Packages were suspended from thin threads and submerged in the seawater.

The densely packed packages were submerged in seawater, turning the entire ocean into a giant storage bank.

The line connects to a series of spatial rings.

The butterfly race living in this ocean can freely spy on others and take away the various treasures stored in the spatial ocean.

at this time.

The amber swallowtail butterfly has developed a voyeuristic tendency, happily peeking into each underwater package.
"Hehe, why are this person's personal clothes so revealing? Huh? How come she has books like this? And rare editions at that? Did she secretly hide them in her spatial ring?"

"Pah! Let me taste it!"

The ancient tree butterfly clan members are no longer bored; they often peek into other people's private spaces through their spatial rings.

Liu Jun was speechless, but did not stop them.

Seeing that the spatial ocean was almost complete, he, as an immortal god, prepared to go out and take a look at the spatial ocean outside.

"I wonder if there really is an underwater train?"

Liu Jun took a step out, leaving the artificial ocean of mushroom soup he had created and stepping into the dark starry sky outside.

His eyes lowered slightly as he glanced at the vast God Continent floating outside.

They did not stay.

The spatial perspective opens up, revealing a calm and tranquil ocean.

This is true for most of the open ocean: the surface is very stable, but the seabed is full of undercurrents.

puff!
He swiftly plunged into the ocean of space, diving deeper and deeper into the countless currents. He soon spotted the wreckage of some small spaceships. "This symbol... the Deepsea civilization we've tamed?"

However, despite its reputation for deep-sea diving, it's really just so-so.

They can only barely make jumps; they are still a long way from the level of civilization required to build space trains.

So some soldiers died when they passed through before.

Liu Jun stopped thinking about it and continued diving, as waves of violent deep-sea currents kept crashing against him.

He was fearless, concealed, and locked in his state. Who in this world could touch him?
Well, except for chaos.

Dive in, dive in!
As Liu Jun dived deeper, an even larger ocean current surged towards him from afar, and he saw the wreckage of a train.

The wreckage resembled a giant, winding dragon sleeping in the starry sky, as massive as the stars themselves, exuding a wild and ancient sense of vicissitude.

But under the impact of ocean currents on the seabed, it's like a rope being flung around wildly.

"Really?"

Liu Jun was stunned for a moment.

Could Sona's guess be true?

The reason the universe is so vast is because you sixth-order old civilizations killed your parents and then took all your belongings to go diving.

As a result, they were drowned by the spatial turbulence?

Did they sink all the land-based planets into the sea?

Liu Jun couldn't help but want to complain, but after thinking about it, he continued diving.

He then activated the stolen Star Chaser Power and began to accelerate his movement.

One year.

Two years.

The surrounding area was still turbulent.

The water pressure was getting deeper and deeper, which made Liu Jun a little silent.

By this time, he already felt that he had wasted a lot of time.

This is the flow rate of the real universe. Compared to the world of Mushroom Soup, several thousand years have probably passed there.

But he thought about it.

Still not wanting to waste all their previous efforts, they continued diving.

In the fourth year, he finally felt that he had arrived at the bottom of the sea. The ocean currents were no longer so frequent, and it was rather lifeless.

He also saw that the seabed was covered with countless remnants of civilization, like piles of waste in a junkyard.

"It's all garbage, there's no civilization here?"

After thinking for a moment, he decided to move horizontally and explore in a plane.

He explored along the way, collecting information about the ruins, and discovered that these civilizations were all epitaphs of despair.

[Tungsten Civilization: It's useless, still useless, this path is wrong! We've failed. Our arduous journey to the ocean depths to build a new world was still a mistake! We can't even break through to the seventh tier!]

[The Spirit Ear Civilization: Here, we have only unlocked four of the shackles. The remaining eight shackles must be unlocked elsewhere in the universe. We must return and find another way. But we no longer have the ability to ascend! We are lost in the deepest layers of spatial turbulence!]

[Fire-Frozen Civilization: Hate! Hate! Hate! Another wrong path. We can't turn back now. We can only scavenge the fallen debris here and try to survive as a scavenger civilization.]

[The Stone Chamber Civilization: We unlocked four shackles during our deep-sea dive, but what about the other eight? There must be other regions of the universe where we can unlock them, but how do we return? The difficulty of returning is countless times greater than the difficulty of descending!]

Liu Jun understood this instantly.

Swimming doesn't require strength to sink; just sink as hard as you can.

But to float to the surface, one must overcome the sinking and face various impacts and ocean currents.
As soon as Liu Jun left, it was as if he were in a desolate cemetery, where he could see their sighs and cries of despair from their lives.

He experienced endless despair and sorrow in each and every civilization.

These ruins bury their past glory.

And it contains quite a lot of information.

Of the twelve shackles they've placed, only four have been opened in this new world of space?
Is it possible to unlock the remaining eight locks elsewhere in the universe?
"But we cheated; with a single bite, all twelve shackles opened at once, bypassing all your complicated and specific breakthrough scenarios."

We've already been researching how to accommodate the body's sudden expansion after unlocking the lock without causing it to collapse, and we've developed the Twelve Trials.

Liu Jun suddenly felt that the outside universe was more backward and more hopeless than he had imagined.

I had a feeling this was going to happen; they were trash, and my forgetful little dog was fishing like crazy.
This has now been verified once again.

Is this disabled seventh-tier Goddess of Fate at the forefront of this universe?
Even a useless seventh-tier warrior who can't even defeat God is still a seventh-tier warrior!

Six months later, Liu Jun still hadn't given up and continued to wander through the ruins. Finally, he saw a glimmer of light: a living civilization of scavengers, though it was lifeless and barely surviving.

This brought a hint of joy to Liu Jun's face. "There really is!"

He carefully and discreetly opened it.

Feel the aura of power within from afar, and see if there are any terrifyingly powerful individuals inside.

To Liu Jun's utter dismay, something happened: "How come it's still at the level of the 175th generation of the God Era? As expected, there's no seventh rank."

Seeing this, Liu Jun was completely disillusioned. He felt no joy at his lead, but instead sighed: This universe is too hopeless.

At the sixth rank, not only is it a matter of killing each other, but breaking through to the seventh rank is also so difficult that it's utterly devastating!

If the Sona civilization described in the introduction truly exists, then even after obtaining the spatial artifact, venturing into the deep sea of ​​space, and establishing a new world, he would still be unable to break through to the seventh rank, and what awaits him is the collapse of his life beliefs once again.

"This universe is too barren and too backward. I will build a new cosmic order to overcome the bottleneck of the seventh order."

Seeing this, Liu Jun finally stopped hesitating.

He lowered his head and looked at the ruins of civilization in the desolate landscape, lying inside a colossal space train of civilization.

"Centipede race, I command you to rise from the ruins, for a new cosmic myth has been born."

Kaka!

Amidst the ruins, in the remnants of a civilization submerged on the seabed, the eyes of the desperate and tormented corpses slowly began to glow. They rose from the seabed, swaying as they stood up, uttering childish voices:

“If it is your will, I will obey.”
