Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Ancient Origin Star, Hongmeng Dao Palace.

Ye Xingkong sat cross-legged in the boundless sea of ​​fire, the rising black flames licking his robes like a black snake flicking its tongue, completely absorbed in studying the art of weapon forging.

Reaching the highest level of power and treasure is considered a major hurdle in the field of weapon crafting.

For a true weapon refiner, the process of refining a heavy treasure up to refining a supreme treasure is at most considered an apprenticeship.

Only those who can independently forge a truly supreme treasure are qualified to be called a master craftsman!
"There are countless paths to the same destination."

"The way of refining weapons is equally complex and profound, and may not be simpler than comprehending the laws and creating secret techniques."

Ye Xingkong felt a mix of emotions.

From receiving the inheritance of the True God of Lin Kingdom, to accepting the S-level inheritance from the Heavenly Craft Pavilion and entering the inheritance space, and then receiving the gift from the Divine King of Jin, the Mountain Guest...

Ye Xingkong possesses a vast collection of inheritances.

Moreover, these inheritances are incredibly precious even on the Origin Continent, and are basically the core secrets of a god-king level power.

Even the most trusted disciples may not receive any of the true teachings unless they undergo rigorous testing.

These ancient and powerful inheritances should not be given to Ye Xingkong, but also to the Primordial Ancestor, the Founder of the Giant Axe, the Lord of Chaos City, and the Lord of Darkness.
Any universe lord who obtains these inheritances could probably cultivate to a level that is virtually invincible in the universe.

Those with higher talents, such as the Primordial Ancestor and the Creator of the Giant Axe, have a much higher probability of breaking through the cycle of reincarnation and adding another holy land to the cosmic sea.

The value of these inheritances is self-evident, enough to drive many of the strongest beings and lords of the universe in the primordial universe mad!
However, only a little over three thousand years have passed since Ye Xingkong received these inheritances.

Three thousand years...

For a being as great as the Lord of the Universe, it's just a matter of taking a nap.

In terms of understanding these traditions over the past three thousand years, even with his God-King level comprehension, Ye Xingkong has only grasped the basics.

The higher the cultivation level, the longer the cultivation time becomes.

Compared to timescales that are hundreds of millions or even billions of years, three thousand years is far too short.

It can be said that Ye Xingkong's understanding of these inheritances is less than one ten-millionth of what he has achieved.

"In the primordial universe, the Hongmeng Daoist Academy has entered a stable phase, and the human race is secretly accumulating power."

"In the Seven Towers Realm, everything is proceeding according to plan."

"And I should also calm down and try to understand these traditions from the origin continent."

Ye Xingkong felt a sense of peace.

In the universe, only one's own strength is the most important.

Why was the original ancestor able to lead the human race to become the first power in the primordial universe?

Nothing more than might makes right!
Whether it's a secret technique or a priceless medicine, it's all external.

Great power originates from within!

When Ye Xingkong reaches the eighth, ninth, or even tenth rank, he will have no rivals in the entire universe.

"Pass down the order: I intend to go into seclusion for cultivation."

"All matters concerning the Hongmeng Daoist Temple can be decided by Daoist Master Tianxuan and Daoist Master Tianchen."

"Do not disturb unless it is of utmost importance!"

Ye Xingkong sent a message to some high-ranking members of the Hongmeng Dojo, then shut down all communication channels and officially began his seclusion.

The Five Elements Avatars received their inheritance in the Seven Towers Realm Inheritance Space;

Panwu's clone sits in charge of the Five Elements Universe, comprehending and integrating the laws of fusion;

The third clone, "Wild," undergoes arduous combat training in the [Abyss Rift].

The human being himself then devoted himself to comprehending the Seven Towers Realm Inheritance and the Inheritance of the God King of Jin.

The four avatars each have their own roles and responsibilities.

Whether it's weapon crafting, fusion of laws, or other special secret techniques.

Ye Xingkong was like a sponge, frantically absorbing seawater and rapidly comprehending these profound traditions, so much so that he couldn't even feel the passage of time.

······
The universe operates according to its own natural laws.

Everything in the universe is not subject to individual will.

While Ye Xingkong was immersed in seclusion, the world was undergoing tremendous changes as time passed.

……

The seven thousand years since Ye Xingkong went into seclusion.

The four dominant races—humans, demons, insects, and machines—are engaged in a decisive battle on the outer battlefield.

Tens of thousands of immortal kings clashed in a fierce battle, with even the cosmic venerables personally joining the fray. The battle was incredibly brutal, a veritable meat grinder for super-strong individuals.

However, contrary to the expectations of the major powers in the universe, the human race was not at a disadvantage at all in fighting against three opponents.

However, the human side is barely maintaining its undefeated status, and the possibility of defeating the three-race alliance is slim.

After all, war is mainly a contest of ethnic heritage.

The three-race alliance consists of three top-tier races, and in terms of raw power, the human race still lags behind.

The secret techniques and treasures that Ye Xingkong contributed at the time could only narrow this gap to some extent.

The 3.71 millionth year of Ye Xingkong's seclusion.

The protracted decisive battle on the extraterritorial battlefield has not yet subsided and has begun to devolve into a war of attrition. However, the development of the human race has not been affected in the slightest by the extraterritorial battlefield.

After comprehending the true god's legacy, the Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace finally took that step and became the twenty-second universe lord of the human race.

The Virtual Universe Company has seven Universe Masters, making it the power with the most Universe Masters among the six top forces.

……

The 9,310,000th year of Ye Xingkong's seclusion.

One of the three top cosmic overlords of the human race, the Star Prison Demon Lord, has successfully broken through, and the Cosmic Galaxy Bank now has a third cosmic lord.

The number of cosmic lords among the human race has reached twenty-three;
……

The 14,320,000th year and the 29,160,000th year.

The Giant Axe Arena rose to prominence, with the Undying Venerable and the Ancestral Tree Venerable successively breaking through to become Lords of the Universe, becoming a legendary tale in the universe.

……

In the 54 millionth year, Venerable Feng Yan of the First Bank of the Universe broke through to the level of Lord of the Universe.
……

In the 85,620,000th year, Night Owl Venerable of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance broke through to the level of Cosmic Lord.
······
Time flies like an arrow.

Unbeknownst to him, it had already been 100 million years since Ye Xingkong went into seclusion.

Over these 100 million years, the human race has undergone earth-shattering changes.

Time is the greatest magician.

The "seeds" that Ye Xingkong planted back then have finally yielded some results after a long period of 100 million years.

Ancient Origin Star, Hongmeng Dao Palace.

"A hundred million years, that's a really long time."

Inside the main hall, Ye Xingkong, dressed in a white robe, appeared calm, but his tone carried a hint of emotion.

From the time he transmigrated to this world to the time he cultivated all the way to the seventh-order Universe Lord, it only took him less than 300,000 years.

A hundred million years...

It was indeed a feeling that was hard to describe for him.

You won't understand unless you experience it.

"If I hadn't broken through to become the strongest being in the universe, I probably wouldn't have come out of seclusion this time."

"However, the heritage of the Origin Continent is too profound. Let alone 100 million years, even if it takes another billion years, it probably won't be of much use."

Ye Xingkong stretched and slowly stood up from the throne.

It's not that he lacks comprehension, but rather that this is how cultivation at the level of a true god is—time is the most meaningless thing.

In the blink of an eye, or in a moment of distraction, hundreds of thousands of years may have passed.

"Since Chaos has broken through to become a True God, I feel embarrassed not to offer any thanks."

Ye Xingkong glanced at the treasure vault, smiled, and took out a battle sword that emitted a golden glow.

"The sword is named 'Shattered Gold,' and it seems to be the first supreme treasure I obtained in the [Abyss Rift] back then."

"It just so happens that the Lord of Chaos City is also quite skilled in close combat, so let's take this battle sword as a congratulatory gift."

Ye Xingkong smiled slightly.

He felt no remorse whatsoever for using the most powerful treasure as a congratulatory gift.

It's just a standard, supreme treasure; it's nothing to Ye Xingkong anymore.

He now possesses sixteen supreme treasures, primarily sourced from the Seven Towers Realm's [Abyss Rift], with a small portion crafted by himself.

This was only because Ye Xingkong didn't focus his energy on weapon crafting later on; otherwise, supreme treasures would have been no different from being sold in bulk to him.

……

Virtual Universe Company Headquarters.

An ancient temple floats in the starry sky.

The Lord of Chaos City wore a long golden robe, his body radiating chaotic energy, and he wore a smile.

"Ha ha!"

"Chaos, congratulations!"

"I guessed it from the beginning: the second strongest being in the universe for our human race would definitely be Chaos."

"Chao Chaos True God, I'm not too late, am I?"

One by one, the masters of the human universe arrived together, all with joyful smiles on their faces.

The fact that the Lord of Chaos City has broken through to become the strongest in the universe is a momentous event for the entire human race, and they are naturally overjoyed.

The more powerful a race is, the more these cosmic lords benefit.

"Please come in, everyone!"

"Today, let's drink until we're drunk!"

The Lord of Chaos City laughed heartily; his excitement was palpable. (End of Chapter)
