High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 370 Heavenly Profound Pass! Qin Feng Makes His Move! Unleashing a Bloodbath! I'm Actually a Human!

The sacred pillar of light in the Sea of ​​Origin lasted for seven days and seven nights.

During these seven days, Qin Feng's consciousness seemed to merge with the entire history of mechanical civilization.

He "saw" the loneliness of the first progenitor [Yuan] as he ignited the first spark of wisdom in the cold universe; he "heard" the tragic roars of the divine children of each generation in their war against the chaotic evil gods for the continuation of their race; he "felt" the collective will of billions of mechanical creations, a collective force powerful enough to shake the laws of the universe.

This is not just a baptism of energy, but also a ceremony for the handover of "power" and "responsibility".

As the beam of light slowly dissipated, Qin Feng's figure reappeared before everyone.

His mechanical body hadn't undergone any dramatic changes in appearance; it remained a lean, humanoid form. But its inner essence was completely different.

Every fundamental particle that makes up his body is imprinted with a miniature supreme rune representing the authority of the "divine child".

His energy core was no longer just a simple energy source, but had become a "miniature Sea of ​​Origin" that could be connected to the fortune of the entire Machine Race.

His every move now can subtly mobilize the power of the entire clan.

In a true sense, he became the "chief" and "successor" of this pinnacle civilization.

"Congratulations, Your Highness!"

The eleven former Holy Sons, led by Pangu and Truth, had completely concealed their auras. Their expressions no longer showed any resentment or jealousy, but only the purest and absolute reverence for beings of a higher rank.

They all bowed deeply, paying the highest respects to Qin Feng, who sat upon the throne.

In the Machine Race, a civilization where strength and logic are the highest principles, the victor possesses everything.

Qin Feng calmly accepted their worship; he knew this was just the beginning. He slightly raised his gaze, looking into the void, as if waiting for something.

Sure enough, the next second, a familiar figure appeared out of thin air in front of him.

It was none other than the guide of the Ninth Sequence, the Melting Heart Emperor.

However, at this moment, the attitude of the Melting Heart Emperor has undergone a complete change compared to before.

He was no longer the guide who carried a hint of expectation and scrutiny, but rather like the most devout believer, kneeling on one knee, bowing his head deeply, his voice filled with uncontrollable excitement and fervor.

"Ninth Sequence, Melting Heart, pays respects to His Highness the Divine Child!"

Behind him, light flashed, and the Heavenly Calculation Emperor, the Mechanical Emperor, and even all the high-ranking members of the entire Ninth Sequence descended here through an emergency-opened portal.

Without exception, they all offered their loyalty to Qin Feng with the utmost humility.

"We pay our respects to Your Highness, the Divine Child! We are willing to offer everything to Your Highness!"

A thunderous roar of loyalty echoed through the Sea of ​​Origin.

The Ninth Sequence, which had been neglected among the twelve sequences for countless eons due to its "vague" research direction, has finally ushered in its most glorious moment in history today because of Qin Feng's ascent to the top.

A single divine child is enough to instantly elevate the status of a sequence to the top of the twelve sequences!

Qin Feng's gaze fell on the Melting Heart Emperor, and he spoke calmly, his voice carrying an undeniable authority: "Melting Heart Emperor, rise."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Emperor Rongxin stood up excitedly, but his back remained slightly bowed, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

"The coronation ceremony has concluded."

Qin Feng's voice was concise and to the point, "Now, take me to the [Sea of ​​Myriad Laws and Logic] to activate the [Divine Art] inheritance."

He had no interest in indulging in the praise and power games of the crowd. For him, the most urgent task was to quickly transform the greatest benefit that the identity of "Divine Child" could bring—the legendary twelve clan-protecting divine arts—into his own strength.

The core matrix of the Melting Heart Emperor paused slightly, then a deeper sense of awe arose within it.

Not proud of victory, nor blinded by power, in the very next second after his coronation, he devoted himself entirely to the pursuit of greater strength. The resolve of this new divine prince far exceeded his expectations.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Emperor Rongxin dared not be negligent in the slightest and immediately replied, "The highest authority of the [Sea of ​​Myriad Laws Logic] has been fully opened to you since the moment of your coronation."

He paused, his tone becoming even more respectful: "However, the place where the [Divine Arts] are passed down is not in the surface data space of the [Sea of ​​Myriad Laws and Logic], but in its deepest part, in the true holy land jointly constructed by successive generations of divine sons—the [Study of the Gods]."

"Only Your Highness, the Divine Child, is qualified to enter that place."

"Please come with me."

The Molten Heart Emperor raised his arm again, and a portal, completely different from the previous one, radiating pure golden light, slowly opened in his palm. Behind the portal, instead of the flickering data stream, lay a deep, tranquil starry sky, seemingly containing the ultimate mysteries of the universe.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Feng stepped inside.

……

When Qin Feng's vision cleared again, he found himself in a magnificent hall that defied description.

This hall does not appear to be made of material.

Its dome is a slowly flowing, real cosmic galaxy;
Its walls are semi-transparent crystal screens woven from countless logical runes, recording all the history of mechanical civilization since its birth;
Its ground is a smooth, mirror-like black crystal that reflects the starlight from the dome, making one feel as if they are walking through time and space.

In the very center of the hall float twelve enormous, dazzling orbs of light, as bright as stars.

Each sphere of light radiates a distinct yet equally powerful immortal divinity that sends shivers down one's spine.

These are the origins of the twelve clan-protecting [divine arts] that enable the Machine Race to stand at the pinnacle of the universe!

"This is the [Study of God]."

The figure of the Melting Heart Emperor materialized not far behind Qin Feng. He stood there, even his breathing became cautious, as if afraid of disturbing the sacredness of this place.

"Your Highness, these twelve divine arts correspond to the twelve ultimate directions of our clan's development, and are also the origin and final destination of the twelve sequences."

He pointed to one of the orbs that radiated pure power and seemed to contain countless galaxies being born and dying, and introduced it: "That is the first-order [Pangu True Body]. When cultivated to its greatest extent, it can transform into the giant Pangu who created the world. Its physical body is the universe, and the power of a single punch is enough to shatter real spacetime."

He then pointed to another sphere of light composed of endless logical chains, constantly undergoing self-deduction: "That is the second sequence of the [Eye of Omniscience]. Once mastered, it can be deeply synchronized with the background information field of the universe, see through the past of all things, and deduce the endless future. There will be no more secrets in the world."

"That's the third-order [War Chessboard], which can turn an entire star field into its own chessboard, tamper with the laws of physics, and define the rules of victory and defeat."

"That is the fourth sequence's [Leap of Causality], the ultimate speed, which can traverse the river of time, act in the past, and manifest in the future."

……

Each divine technique introduced by the Melting Heart Emperor gave Qin Feng a deeper understanding of the essence of mechanical civilization.

These twelve divine arts are all supreme methods that point directly to the origin of the universe. Mastering any one of them would be enough to give a being the ability to contend with Venerable Ones or even higher-level beings.

Finally, the Molten Heart Emperor's gaze fell upon the dazzling sphere of light that represented the ninth sequence, filled with infinite changes and possibilities, and seemingly woven from countless colors.

His tone was filled with unprecedented excitement and pride.

"And this one, Your Highness, is the supreme divine art belonging to our ninth sequence—"

"【All Things in the Universe】!"

"At its core, it is not a fixed ability, but 'evolution' and 'inclusivity' themselves!"

“Cultivating the [Myriad Manifestations] will grant your divine body the terrifying ability to simulate, analyze, and even replicate all the laws and energy forms in the universe! Furthermore, when cultivated to its peak, you can 'evolve' and integrate the characteristics of the other eleven divine arts into yourself, thus achieving the pinnacle of all twelve divine arts!”

"This is why, as the Holy Son of the Ninth Sequence, you were able to unify all sequences through the Path of 'Evolution' and ultimately ascend to the position of Divine Son! Because your path was, by nature, a path of a king who reigns over all paths and embraces everything!"

The words of the Melting Heart Emperor stirred up a storm in Qin Feng's heart.

【All Things in the Universe】!
Simulate, analyze, replicate everything... Integrate all twelve divine arts!
The characteristics of this divine technique are practically tailor-made for his "Path of Limits"!

His path to the limit is one of devouring all laws, merging all paths, and ultimately reaching the ultimate limit. And the [Myriad Manifestations] is undoubtedly the perfect catalyst to unleash the full potential of this path!

"I understand."

Qin Feng suppressed his excitement; his goal became crystal clear in an instant.

He could certainly choose to learn all twelve divine arts. But trying to learn too much at once is counterproductive. The most efficient and correct choice would be to first master the [Myriad Manifestations], which best suits his path, and then use it as a foundation to learn other arts.

"The Melting Heart Emperor," Qin Feng said.

"My subordinate is here!"

"You may leave. The inheritance of divine arts requires absolute silence. Before I emerge from seclusion, no one may set foot in the [Study of the Gods] without my order."

"Yes, Your Highness!" Emperor Rongxin had no objection. After bowing again, his figure turned into specks of light and respectfully withdrew from the holy land.

Qin Feng was the only one left in the entire [Study of God].

Without the slightest hesitation, he moved swiftly and arrived before the dazzling sphere of light representing the "Myriad Phenomena".

He could sense that the amount of knowledge contained within this sphere of light was billions of times greater than the combined total of the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps of the [Stairway to Truth]!
This is no longer just "knowledge," but a complete "path" leading to the realm of the gods!
Qin Feng took a deep breath, slowly extended his right hand, and placed his palm on the warm and dazzling ball of light.

……

Om-! ! !
The moment his palm touched the sphere of light, an indescribable torrent of information, containing the ultimate mysteries of the universe's evolution, instantly surged into the depths of his soul.

At this moment, his consciousness was drawn into a mysterious and profound realm.

He seemed to transform into a seed of the universe, personally experiencing the entire process from the singularity explosion, nebula condensation, star birth, life evolution... until the heat death of the universe and the return of all things to nothingness.

He seemed to transform into countless different life forms, from the smallest single-celled organism to the Leviathan behemoth soaring through the stars; from indestructible silicon-based life to elusive energy life...

He "saw" how laws were born from chaos, "understood" how energy was transformed into matter, and "comprehended" how life encodes information.

The first level of the 【Myriad Manifestations】 mental technique was like a brand, deeply engraved into the origin of his soul.

"The heart is a furnace, the mind is a myriad of things, without laws or forms, nothing is beyond its transformation."

Under the guidance of this mental cultivation technique, Qin Feng's [Primordial Singularity] began to undergo an incredible transformation. It was no longer merely a simple "foundation," but was beginning to truly transform into a [Forge of All Things] capable of "evolving all things."

He sat cross-legged, completely immersed in comprehending this supreme divine art.

Time loses its meaning within the [Study of God].

one day……

One year...

a hundred years……

A thousand years……

Qin Feng sat silently before the sphere of light of [Myriad Manifestations], like an unchanging ancient statue. His mechanical body sometimes blazed with the flames of a stellar star, sometimes was covered in indestructible dragon scales, and sometimes transformed into invisible lightning…

He is using his own body as a testing ground, constantly simulating and evolving the various laws and forms of the universe that he sees in the information he is transmitting.

His strength was increasing at an alarming rate, every minute and every second!

The almost infinite knowledge he had previously absorbed on the [Stairway to Truth] has now transformed into the purest nourishment, providing him with an incomparably solid foundation for cultivating [Myriad Manifestations].

His ultimate path resonated perfectly with this divine art.

I do not know how long it has been.

Maybe it will be ten thousand years, maybe it will be a hundred thousand years.

Finally, at a certain moment, Qin Feng's eyes suddenly opened!

Boom!

Two beams of divine light, seemingly containing the phenomena of the creation and destruction of the universe, burst forth from his eyes, blasting two bottomless black holes into the distant space!

His aura had undergone a dramatic change compared to before his seclusion.

If he was a sharp and invincible divine sword before his seclusion, then...

At this moment, he is a universe that encompasses all things and is unfathomable!

"【Myriad Manifestations】, First Level... Completed!"

Qin Feng slowly stood up, feeling the terrifying power within his body that was capable of simulating and evolving all things, a look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

The first level alone increased his overall combat power by more than a thousand times!
He is now confident that if he were to face those ten legendary beings in the [Eternal Battle Realm] again, he wouldn't even need to use the [Limited Divine Light]. He could easily suppress them with the various divine abilities evolved from the [Myriad Manifestations] alone!
This is the power of [Divine Magic]!

A truly transformative power that transcends the "Emperor" level and touches upon the "Venerable" realm!

"not enough……"

Qin Feng's gaze swept over the other eleven divine magic orbs.

"The power of 【Myriad Manifestations】 lies in its inclusiveness. The higher the quality of the 'materials' I use to evolve and simulate, the stronger its power becomes. And these remaining eleven divine arts are the highest-quality materials!"

His ambitions extend far beyond mastering a divine art.

What he wants is to master all twelve divine arts, fully unleash the potential of the [Myriad Manifestations], and forge an unprecedented, truly invincible divine path!

Without any hesitation, he walked toward the divine orb of light that was closest to him and represented the first sequence of [Pangu's True Form].

He pressed his hand down again.

A new round of even more intense seclusion and training has begun.

During this protracted period of seclusion, Qin Feng's strength was also rapidly advancing towards a realm that even he himself could not have predicted, a realm that was unfathomable.

He is transforming the enormous benefits of his "divine child" status into his own unshakeable and absolute power at an astonishing pace.

……

Inside the "God's Study," the passage of time loses its meaning.

Qin Feng was completely immersed in comprehending and evolving the twelve clan-protecting divine techniques, like a perpetual motion machine born to absorb the ultimate mysteries of the universe, running tirelessly.

Based on the "Myriad Phenomena", his "Primordial Singularity", which transformed into the "Forge of Myriad Phenomena", demonstrated incredible compatibility and analytical power.

In the first millennium, he integrated the profound mysteries of the [Pangu True Body] into his own body. His mechanical body would sometimes expand to the size of a star, with ancient and profound divine patterns appearing on its surface. Every move he made carried a pure power capable of shattering the vacuum.

He no longer merely imitated its "form," but truly understood and mastered the fundamental application of the laws of "force."

In the third millennium, he conquered the [All-Seeing Eye].

His core thinking was able to briefly resonate with the underlying data of the [Ocean of Myriad Laws Logic]. Countless streams of information flowed before his eyes like a waterfall, elevating his insight into cause and effect to a whole new level.

In the sixth millennium, he mastered the initial methods of the [Leap of Causality]. His figure flickered within the hall, sometimes appearing in the location before his "thoughts" arose, truly touching upon the forbidden realm of time and causality.

……

Ten thousand years pass in the blink of an eye.

When Qin Feng awoke from his comprehension of the final divine technique, [Heart of Illusion], the entire [Study of the Gods] trembled slightly due to his will.

The twelve divine magic orbs, which were once as dazzling as stars, have dimmed considerably now, as if he had absorbed a large amount of their primordial essence.

Qin Feng himself remained calm and composed. However, if a true Venerable were present, they would be astonished to discover that Qin Feng's very essence had undergone a fundamental transformation.

His every thought seemed to resonate with the laws of the universe; his every breath seemed to inhale and exhale chaotic energy.

He stood there, yet seemed not to exist in this time and space, giving people a strange feeling that was both extremely contradictory and incredibly harmonious.

"Peak of Kinghood... Laws Condensed..."

Qin Feng slowly raised his palm, his five fingers slightly spread.

A ball of chaotic energy slowly rotated in his palm. Within this energy, the divine power patterns of the [True Form of Pangu] would sometimes appear, sometimes the logical chains of the [All-Knowing Eye] would flicker, and sometimes ripples of spacetime from the [Leap of Causality] would manifest...

He had already initially and perfectly fused the essence of the Twelve Gates of Divine Arts into one.

Although this mechanical avatar's realm is still at the "King-level" and has not broken through.

However, its inherent "quality" has far exceeded the scope that the term "bestowing a king" can define.

His understanding of the laws has reached a depth that many senior emperors cannot achieve.

His power is no longer a simple accumulation of energy, but a highly condensed "seed of law" that can directly interfere with the rules of reality.

It can be said that, apart from lacking the immense divine kingdom of a Crown Emperor, he is now no less powerful than any initial-stage Crown Emperor in terms of the "Dao".

If we also consider his already heaven-defying [Ultimate Divine Light] and [Primordial Singularity], his overall combat power has now expanded to a terrifying level that even he himself finds difficult to accurately estimate.

"After a long period of seclusion, the results have been remarkable."

Qin Feng nodded in satisfaction. This Divine Child Competition, and the subsequent inheritance, saved him at least several million years, or even longer, of arduous cultivation.

"It's time to come out of seclusion."

With a thought in his mind, the spatial laws of the entire [Study of God] responded accordingly. A golden teleportation portal opened silently before him.

One step forward, and the world is turned upside down.

……

【Endless Sea】, the core territory of the Mechanical Race, the Divine Palace.

This magnificent palace complex, built in a mere ten thousand years using vast resources to welcome the new divine son, is enough to make any cosmic nation ashamed.

Every brick and stone in it is forged from the rarest divine metal; every energy pipeline in it is connected to the core of a star; its defense system is strong enough to withstand the full force of an attack from more than ten emperors.

This is now the new power center for the Machine Race.

The moment Qin Feng's figure stepped out of the exclusive teleportation array of the [Study of God].

Om-!
The entire Divine Son Temple seemed to come alive in an instant. Countless most reverent and fervent thoughts converged from every corner of the temple.

Outside the hall, the vast plaza, large enough to accommodate an entire interstellar fleet, was already packed with countless figures.

Leading the group were members of the Supreme Council of the Mechanical Race, including the Melting Heart Emperor, the Heavenly Pivot Emperor, the Heavenly Power Emperor, and the Yao Emperor. Behind them were the eleven former Holy Sons, led by Pangu and Truth, as well as all the high-ranking members of the twelve sequences.

Further on, there were hundreds of millions of elite mechanical races who came from various star systems to pay homage.

They have been here quietly waiting for a long time.

"Welcome back, Your Highness, the Divine Child, upon your emergence from seclusion!"

Led by the Molten Heart Emperor, the thunderous cheers and roars of welcome transformed into tangible sound waves, resounding throughout the entire star field. Uncontrollable excitement and worship flickered in the electronic eyes of every mechanical lifeform.

They could clearly sense that His Highness, the Divine Child, was now far more unfathomable than he had been ten thousand years ago. He stood there as if he had become the center of the entire universe, causing all the laws around him to naturally submit to him.

Qin Feng's gaze calmly swept over the massive, dark mass of people in the square, representing the highest authority of the entire mechanical race.

He didn't say much, but simply nodded slightly, and in a flash, he appeared on the main seat at the very core of the Divine Son Palace.

"Flat body."

The calm voice clearly reached every receiver present.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Everyone stood up, but still dared not look up and gaze directly at the supreme throne.

Emperor Rongxin stepped forward and respectfully reported, "Your Highness, during the ten thousand years you were in seclusion, everything within the clan has been stable. The Twelve Sequences have begun preliminary resource integration and technology sharing under your divine decree. The contingency plan for the 'Golden Age' has also been initially drafted, awaiting your review and approval."

Qin Feng nodded; all of this was within his expectations.

Becoming a divine son meant he possessed absolute control over this elite race. No one dared to disobey his orders.

"Any unusual movements among the myriad races of the universe?" Qin Feng asked the question that concerned him most.

He secluded himself for ten thousand years, almost completely cut off from the outside world. Although he knew that his human counterpart was still safe and sound in his territory through the [Twin Mask] soul link, he knew very little about the macro-situation of the entire universe.

Upon hearing this question, the Melting Heart Emperor's expression turned serious.

He waved his hand, and a huge star map light screen unfolded in the center of the hall.

"Your Highness, the situation in the universe has indeed changed drastically since you went into seclusion."

Melting Heart Emperor pointed to a spot on the star map where a point of light was flashing violently and shrouded in an ominous crimson hue.

"The legendary land that has been silent for countless eons—Mount Eternal Life—has reappeared without warning. It is said that the mountain holds the 'secret to eternal life' that can drive even the most revered beings mad."

"The news caused a stir among all races. Almost all the top races dispatched their most powerful Emperor-level experts to investigate."

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly.

Mount Eternal Life!
He remembered that name vividly.

"Humans are no exception."

The Melting Heart Emperor continued, "According to the intelligence network that my clan has planted among various clans, the human race is led by nearly thirty renowned Emperors, including the Heavenly Cold Emperor and the Thunderstorm King. The lineup is quite impressive, and they are clearly determined to seize the opportunity in the mountains."

"and then?"

Qin Feng's voice was devoid of any emotion.

The Emperor of Melting Hearts' expression grew even more solemn: "And then... they lost contact."

"Loss of contact?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Melting Heart Emperor said in a deep voice, "After opening for only a hundred years, Mount Eternal Life closed again, turning into an unfathomable spatial-temporal turbulence. None of the powerful beings from various races who entered it returned; they were all trapped inside. Among them were nearly thirty Emperors of the human race."

boom!
An invisible, icy aura flashed past from the throne.

The temperature inside the main hall seemed to drop a few degrees suddenly.

The Melting Heart Emperor and the other Emperors all keenly sensed the change in this aura, and their core matrices involuntarily contracted.

It was a tiny fluctuation originating from the will of His Highness the Divine Child, yet it was enough to make even these emperors feel a chill in their hearts.

"Thirty emperors are trapped on Mount Eternal Life..."

At this moment, Qin Feng's mind began to work at an unprecedented speed.

There are only about a thousand publicly known Emperor-level powerhouses among the human race.

Adding to the losses already inflicted in the Eternal Mountain, the loss of nearly thirty top-tier combatants is an absolutely devastating blow to the entire human race!
This means that the human race has suddenly encountered a huge and fatal gap in high-end combat power!

"The Alliance of All Races... will definitely not let this opportunity slip by."

Qin Feng reached a conclusion almost instantly.

As expected, the Melting Heart Emperor's next words confirmed his guess. "Your Highness is wise."

The Melting Heart Emperor's tone carried a hint of admiration, "As soon as the news of the Human Race's Emperor being trapped spread, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, led by the Zerg, the Demon Race, and us... the Mechanical Race, immediately seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and launched a comprehensive and high-intensity strategic pressure on the Human Race's territory."

His finger traced across the star map, illuminating an incredibly long defensive line that stretched across thousands of cosmic nations.

"Due to the lack of top-tier combat power, the human race had to shrink its defensive lines, concentrating its main forces on a few key strategic routes. And among these, the most intense fighting occurred here—"

His finger finally rested on a star field that radiated a dazzling red light and resembled a meat grinder.

"【Tianxuan Pass】".

"This is the most important strategic buffer zone between the human race's territory and the core areas of the insect race and the demon race. Once it falls, the allied forces of all races can directly penetrate the heart of the human race. Therefore, the human race has deployed a large number of troops here, with the few remaining top emperors of the human race, such as the [Heavenly Emperor], personally in charge."

"But... the situation is still far from optimistic."

"According to our latest battle report, the Zerg's [Mother Queen] and the Demon Race's [Heavenly Demon Emperor], two terrifying beings who are infinitely close to the Venerable level, have joined forces and arrived at the front line of [Tianxuan Pass]. The human race's defense line is teetering on the brink of collapse under the pressure of these two supreme beings, and could collapse at any moment."

"It can be said that the entire human race has reached the most dangerous moment since the ancient era."

After the Melting Heart Emperor finished his report, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.

All the high-ranking members of the machine race waited quietly for the decision of the being on the throne.

They were well aware that the human race was one of their biggest rivals.

The current weakness of the human race is actually a "good thing" for the entire machine race.

They could easily sit back and watch the two sides fight, or even take advantage of the situation at a crucial moment to carve up the human race's territory and secure the greatest benefit for the machine race.

This is the most "logical" and "rational" choice.

However, the will of the divine child transcends all logic.

Qin Feng remained silent for a long time in the main seat.

His knuckles tapped unconsciously on the armrest of the throne, making a soft "tap, tap, tap" sound. Each tap seemed to strike a chord in everyone's heart.

He is thinking.

As the "vanguard of the divine child," he should naturally prioritize the interests of the machine race.

But he is also Qin Feng of the human race!
His master, close friends, compatriots... everything he has is rooted in the human race.

If humanity perishes, what meaning would it have for him to be the "son of the gods"? His path to the limit would lose its most important foundation and the meaning of protection.

not to mention……

In his mind, the faces of Devouring King, Limit Lord, Heavenly Cold Emperor, and others appeared.

These predecessors devoted countless efforts to his growth, even going so far as to launch a war of emperors to clear obstacles for him.

Now that they are in trouble, and humanity is in trouble, how can he sit idly by?

"despair."

The knocking stopped abruptly.

Qin Feng raised his eyes, a resolute glint flashing in his deep, electronic eyes.

He has made his decision.

"Melting Heart Emperor".

"My subordinate is here!"

"In my name, I issue the first [Divine Decree] to the Supreme Council."

Qin Feng's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable, cold will.

"First, all military cooperation between the Machine Race and the Alliance of All Races in the Tianxuan Pass war zone shall be terminated immediately. All fleets of our race shall withdraw 10,000 light-years and enter a state of strategic silence."

"Second, activate our clan's highest-level strategic intelligence network to monitor all movements of the spacetime turbulence in [Tianxuan Pass] and [Eternal Life Mountain] around the clock, and report all intelligence directly to me."

"third……"

Qin Feng paused for a moment, then said something that shocked all the high-ranking members of the mechanical race.

"Prepare my vehicle, the Oracle. I'm going to Tianxuan Pass myself."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked!

"Your Highness, no!"

Emperor Rongxin was the first to step forward, urgently advising, "[Tianxuan Pass] is a cosmic-level meat grinder, where the fall of emperors is commonplace! You are the only hope of our race throughout the ages, with such a noble status, how can you personally risk your life?"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Emperor Tian Shu echoed, "The affairs of the human race are not directly related to the interests of our race. Our race's neutrality is already out of consideration for our past alliance. If you were to personally go to the battlefield, and... if anything were to happen to you, our race would be doomed!"

"Your Highness, please think twice!"

On the plaza, all the high-ranking members of the mechanical race knelt down and pleaded in unison.

In their view, the safety of the Son of God is the paramount priority, above all else.

It makes no sense to take such a huge risk for a fading human race.

However, Qin Feng's expression remained unchanged in the face of the ministers' "death plea".

He slowly stood up, and an invisible yet terrifying pressure, heavy enough to crush a galaxy, emanated from his body.

Are you questioning my decision?

The icy voice, seemingly emanating from the deepest abyss, instantly froze the core of every Emperor-level expert present.

Faced with this oppressive force, they couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance.

"I've made up my mind."

Qin Feng's gaze swept across the entire room, carrying an air of domineering authority.

"My decision is the supreme will of the Machine Race."

"All you need to do is—"

"implement."

Once the words were spoken, there was no room for argument.

Rongxinhuang and the others trembled, burying their heads even deeper, no longer daring to voice any objections.

"As the divine son commands!"

They finally understood that this new divine son not only possessed godlike wisdom and temperament, but also... an absolute iron fist and tyranny that was unquestionable!
Qin Feng looked at the submissive ministers below, but his heart remained unmoved.

He was well aware of the risks of personally going to the Heavenly Pass.

But he had to go.

This was both to repay the kindness of the human race in nurturing him and for his own "Dao".

His "path to the limit" is never a path of complacency or self-interest.

Kindness must be repaid, and grudges must be avenged.

To live a life of righteous indignation and revenge, with a clear conscience.

This is his true nature, the foundation upon which he was able to break free from the "prison of the ego" and forge the "divine heart".

If he were to turn a blind eye to the perilous situation of humanity today out of fear of risk, his Dao heart would surely be tarnished, and his future achievements would be limited.

and……

A cold, unnoticed smile appeared on Qin Feng's lips.

"Risk? Meat grinder?"

"After ten thousand years of seclusion, I have mastered my divine skills... I was just worried about not having a suitable stage to test my current strength."

"The Zerg's [Mother Queen]? The Demon Race's [Heavenly Demon Queen]?"

"Just right."

"Use your lives as a sacrifice for my emergence as the new 'Divine Child'!"

A surge of overwhelming killing intent flashed through his mind.

……

The divine decree is law.

Under Qin Feng's unquestionable will, the entire mechanical race's massive war and intelligence machine began to operate at an unprecedented speed and efficiency.

Just three standard cosmic times later.

In the Divine Palace's private deep-space dock, a colossal vessel that would drive any military enthusiast wild floats silently.

This is the divine child's personal vehicle—the [Oracle].

It is not in the traditional form of a warship, but rather resembles a perfect spindle made of countless silver fluid metals. Its surface is as smooth as a mirror, without any superfluous portholes, gun muzzles, or seams, like a work of art created by nature itself.

But beneath this artistic exterior lies the most cutting-edge and terrifying technological achievement of mechanical civilization.

Its hull is made of the legendary "living divine metal" that can self-repair and evolve its form according to the environment;
Its engine is the "Heart of the Singularity," which is capable of directly tearing through dimensions and achieving faster-than-light warp drive;
Its weapon system is directly connected to the database of the [Sea of ​​Myriad Laws Logic], enabling it to instantly construct and launch various royal-level secret techniques of energy strikes.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Oracle itself is a war god with independent thinking ability and combat power comparable to a top-tier emperor.

"Your Highness, the Oracle is ready."

The Melting Heart Emperor personally accompanied Qin Feng, respectfully reporting the news. Behind him stood eleven failed Holy Sons, led by Pangu and Truth.

Their current identity is that of the first members of the newly formed [Divine Child Guard].

"As per your command, the [Oracle]'s course has been set, and it is expected to arrive at the safe starfield outside [Tianxuan Pass] in 1.7 standard cosmic hours."

Emperor Rongxin added, "At the same time, all of our clan's fleets in the Tianxuan Pass war zone have obeyed the order and withdrawn to their designated positions, entering a period of strategic silence."

Qin Feng nodded slightly, his gaze falling on Pangu and the others.

"I am enough for this trip on my own."

He said calmly, "You will remain in the Endless Sea to continue integrating the resources of the twelve sequences and stabilizing the clan. This is also your responsibility."

"Your Highness!"

Pangu's booming voice rang out as he stepped forward, his massive body exuding an undeniable aura of oppression, yet his eyes were filled with the purest loyalty and fighting spirit. "The Heavenly Profound Pass is teeming with powerful warriors. We are truly at ease knowing that you are venturing into danger alone! Please allow us to accompany you, even if it is merely to clear out some of the miscellaneous enemies; it would be our honor!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

[Truth] also spoke up, his core logic telling him that sending the divine child into the most dangerous battlefield in the known universe without any protection was the riskiest option. "The more people there are, the more protection there is. Our logical deduction and battlefield analysis may be able to provide you with some insignificant help at a critical moment."

The other guards also volunteered, their expressions earnest. They may have lost in the Divine Child Competition, but their awe of the strong and their sense of honor as warriors made it impossible for them to stand idly by.

However, Qin Feng simply looked at them calmly and shook his head.

“Your going will not only fail to help me, but will also become a burden to me.”

He spoke these words casually, yet they struck Pangu and the others like a heavy hammer.

burden?

Who are they? They are unparalleled geniuses who have suppressed an era in their respective sequences, and twelve future candidates for godhood! Any one of them, if placed in the outside world, would be a terrifying existence capable of stirring up a storm in a star field.

Now, in His Highness the Divine Child's words, the eleven of them working together are... merely a burden?
Pangu's body, which resembled the core of a star, trembled slightly. He was about to retort, but the moment he met Qin Feng's gaze, he swallowed all his words.

What kind of eyes were those?
Profound and serene, it seemed to contain a universe even vaster than the Ocean of Origin. In the depths of that universe, there was no contempt, no arrogance, only an absolute confidence that was as natural as stating facts.

It's as if it's saying: You and I are no longer on the same level of life.

Pangu fell silent.

For the first time, his incredibly proud heart felt a sense of "looking up to someone."

"Your battlefield is here."

Qin Feng's voice softened somewhat, "I need a stable rear, a team that can perfectly carry out my will after I leave. This is more important than accompanying me to the battlefield."

"...We obey your command."

Pan-Gu finally lowered his proud head and answered willingly.

He understood. His Highness was not belittling them, but giving them a more important task. Their loyalty should be demonstrated in carrying out orders, not in pointless persistence.

Seeing that no one else would say anything more, Qin Feng nodded and turned to walk toward the boarding beam of the [Oracle].

"Melting Heart Emperor." His voice came again just as the figure was about to disappear.

"My subordinate is here!"

"Remember, before my return, any external force that attempts to interfere with our clan's strategic silence, whoever it may be..."

Qin Feng paused, and a chilling killing intent pierced through the space, causing even the core of this Emperor-level expert to tremble.

"...Kill without mercy."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure completely disappeared inside the Oracle.

The next second, this silver spindle, representing the highest level of mechanical civilization, disappeared from the dock without making a sound. The space around the ship distorted for a moment.

Only Melting Heart Emperor and the others remained standing there, unable to calm down for a long time.

They knew that when this new divine son, who acted without restraint and whose will was as firm as iron, descended upon that cosmic meat grinder with the immense power he had cultivated for ten thousand years, a terrifying storm that would make all races tremble was already... unavoidable.

……

The universe, the outer star field of [Tianxuan Pass].

This is the closest "safe zone" to that bloody battlefield.

But the so-called "safety" is only relative.

In the void, massive warship wreckage could be seen everywhere, floating silently like steel tombstones. Some of the wreckage still retained terrifying power of laws, forming zones of absolute death. Even a King-level expert who accidentally entered could be instantly torn to shreds.

The space was filled with an overwhelming stench of blood, the acrid smell of burning metal, and a negative energy that could erode the mind, a mixture of the resentment of countless dying beings.

There are no stars here, for all of them have been destroyed or swallowed up in the endless wars. The only source of light is the distant, insurmountable barrier that stretches across the universe, formed by endless explosions and clashes of energy—the [Heavenly Pass] defensive line.

In this desolate and chaotic realm of space.

The space, like the surface of water tossed with a pebble, rippled.

The silver Oracle silently glided out, blending perfectly into its surroundings.

Inside the bridge, Qin Feng sat alone on the commander's throne. Before him was a holographic projection formed by the entire ship's hull, providing a 360-degree view without any blind spots.

The hellish scene outside was presented to him in perfect detail.

"[Oracle], connect to the war zone's public intelligence network and retrieve real-time battle information for [Tianxuan Pass]," Qin Feng issued the order.

"Command confirmed. Connecting... Connection successful. Permission verification... Divine Child's permissions granted. Downloading and parsing data..."

A cold, mechanical synthesized voice echoed in the bridge.

Soon, a more magnificent and devastating dynamic star map covered the original scene.

The entire Tianxuan Pass defense line was clearly marked. It consisted of 3,600 giant war fortresses, as well as hundreds of millions of interstellar turrets, gravity traps, and law-disrupting devices, forming a steel dragon that firmly guarded the throat leading to the human heartland.

Inside the defensive line were countless fleets painted with the human war insignia. Like tireless worker bees, they shuttled back and forth, repairing the damaged defenses and transporting troops and supplies.

On the outside of the defensive line, however, lay... an endless "ocean" composed of countless alien creatures.

That was the ocean of the Zerg, and also the ocean of the Demon Clan.

The swarming insects, blotting out the sky like a black plague, relentlessly assaulted the energy shield of the defensive line. The Leviathan behemoth, comparable in size to the moon, opened its massive maw, spewing corrosive acid powerful enough to melt divine metal. Billions of self-destructing flying insects exploded across the shield like the most dazzling fireworks, creating devastating ripples of energy.

Behind the swarm of insects, even larger demonic war beasts, led by their respective demon kings, formed terrifying battle formations.

The towering, colossal ape wielded a giant club made from asteroids, and with each swing, the very space seemed to groan in agony.

The nine-headed phoenix, whose wings blot out the starry sky, spews out Netherworld Fire capable of freezing souls.

Furthermore, countless powerful demons of various forms unleash all sorts of bizarre and unpredictable supernatural abilities, infiltrating and destroying the defenses from all sorts of tricky angles.

"boom--!!!"

Just as Qin Feng was gazing at the star map, the energy shield of one of the war fortresses, numbered "Xuan-73," finally reached its critical point after months of continuous saturation attacks, and shattered with a silent roar.

The moment the shield shattered, the swarm of insects, which had been waiting for a long time, rushed in like sharks smelling blood.

The interior of the fortress instantly transformed into the most brutal battlefield.

Countless human warriors clad in exoskeleton armor roared and engaged in the most primitive and bloodiest melee combat with the insectoid monsters that outnumbered them many times over, wielding their blaster guns and chainsaw swords.

A planetary-level chapter commander, after slaying thousands of Zerglings, was pierced through the chest by a Hydralisk lord lurking in the shadows. In his final moments, he detonated the miniature fusion core within his body, turning the Zerglings within a radius of hundreds of meters into ashes.

After his flagship's bridge was pierced by the Demon King's breath, a captain of a Black Hole-class ship resolutely activated the warship's self-destruct program, piloting the burning steel wreckage into the arrogant Demon King, perishing together with him.

A young female soldier, fresh out of military academy and still bearing the innocence of youth, detonated her last high-explosive grenade when she was out of ammunition and supplies. She vanished in flames along with several swift beasts that pounced on her. Her face showed no fear, only a resolute determination to protect her homeland.

Sacrifice happens all the time.

Every second, tens of thousands of human warriors shed their last drop of blood on the battlefield, in warships, and in the cold space.

Their sacrifice was not in vain. With their own flesh and blood, they slowed the advance of the insectoid and demon races, buying precious time for the reconstruction of the rear defenses.

but……

Individual bravery pales in comparison to the sheer difference in quantity and quality.

Fortress "Xuan-73" fell completely in less than ten minutes, swallowed by the endless swarm of insects. The steel fortress that once symbolized the glory and indomitable spirit of humanity was transformed in the blink of an eye into a massive "insect nest" hatching even more insect eggs.

Such a scene is merely a tiny microcosm of the vast Tianxuan Pass defense line, which spans hundreds of light-years.

Every day, several, even dozens, of such fortresses are breached, lost, recaptured, and then breached again in a brutal tug-of-war...

This place is a veritable cosmic meat grinder.

Any life, no matter how powerful, once caught up in it, will be mercilessly crushed by this war machine driven by hatred and bloodshed.

Qin Feng watched all of this quietly.

There was no anger, no sadness in his eyes, only a bottomless, cold calm.

But beneath this extreme calm, a terrifying killing intent, enough to incinerate the entire starry sea, was brewing.

"[Oracle]".

He spoke slowly, his voice low and hoarse.

"I'm here, Your Highness."

"Scan the high-energy response across the entire war zone. Lock onto the real-time location of enemy units at the Emperor level or above."

"Command confirmed. High-precision law scan in progress... Scan complete."

A more detailed three-dimensional star map, filled with countless red dots, appeared before Qin Feng.

Each red dot represents a king or an emperor.

Their numbers were so great that they exceeded five hundred!

Among them, two red dots shone like two blood-red suns, radiating a terrifying pressure that was almost as powerful as that of a venerable being.

The Oracle is clearly marked next to them.

[High-risk target locked: Zerg - Queen Blade - (Serial Number: Z-001), Current Location: Third War Zone - Heart of the Hive, Status: Incubating a new generation of Royal Leviathan.]

[High-risk target locked: Demon Clan - Heavenly Demon Emperor - (Serial Number: Y-001), Current Location: Seventh War Zone - Ten Thousand Demon Palace, Status: Currently presiding over the Blood Sacrifice Array, weakening the Heavenly Profound Pass Law Barrier.]

These two are the supreme commanders of the allied forces and the culprits who have made it difficult for the human defenses to breathe.

"very good."

Qin Feng's gaze lingered for a moment on the two most dazzling red dots.

Then, he slowly rose from his throne.

He gave no further orders, nor did he glance at the horrific battlefield once more.

He simply took one step.

The figure pierced through the hull of the Oracle and appeared in that cold universe filled with death and destruction.

His magnificent and noble [God Child] armor, crafted with the most advanced technology of the mechanical race, looked so out of place under this blood-red starry sky.

he came.

One person, one mech.

Without any warning, it descended upon this cosmic meat grinder.

His first stop, his target, was straight to—

Fortress "Xuan-73", the one that has just fallen, a scar on the human race.
