Too many people are dying in this chaotic world? Then I'll activate the control panel!

The two cosmic rulers confronted each other, their oppressive power traversing the void, where chaos was utterly silent.

The gazes of the two cosmic rulers collided violently in the dark void. There was no earth-shattering roar, but the entire outer chaos trembled slightly.

A surge of fighting spirit welled up in Qing Fa's eyes.

In his view, Wang Sheng had just reached the tenth realm, his foothold was not yet firm, and his era was still short. He should have restrained his sharpness, consolidated his origin, and bided his time to accumulate strength, so as to safely weather the first Black Wind Calamity.

But he was incredibly bold, daring to wager the very essence of half of the formless universe in a gamble on a cycle of reincarnation!

The origin of half the universe—how terrifying!

That is the foundation of a complete universe of living beings accumulated over hundreds of millions of years, the core strength that supports the operation of the Heavenly Dao, nourishes all living beings, and resists the Black Wind.

Even the slightest loss will cause the cosmic barrier to thin, the Dao's fortune to falter, and the resistance to catastrophe to plummet.

If one is not careful, even without the arrival of the Black Wind, the Formless Universe will automatically become unstable, its rules incomplete, and hidden dangers rampant.

Such a gamble is rare among the lords of the entire universe!

"Fellow Daoist, your spirit is truly astonishing."

Qing Fa slowly concealed all the disdain in his eyes, his expression becoming completely serious, his tone stern.

"Since the formation of the cosmic sea, you are the first person to dare to gamble half of the universe's origin against my entire foundation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qingfa raised his hand and reached into the vast, chaotic depths.

Om-!

An ancient, vast, profound, and all-encompassing golden Daoist aura slowly awakened from the void.

The void unfolded layer by layer, and strands of immortal golden light pierced through the darkness, illuminating the entire outer territory.

That is the Daoist projection of the Bell of the Era!

It is not the true body of the Immortal King's treasure. Such supreme divine objects that span countless ages would not reside permanently in any particular universe.

But even a single projection was enough to suppress the karma of all heavens, lock the supreme covenant, and inscribe the eternal oath of the Heavenly Dao.

Any contest witnessed by the projection of the Epoch Bell is bound by the will of Heaven, archived by all paths, and locked by cause and effect. Even if the universe collapses and the epoch is destroyed, the covenant will remain.

If any party dares to have any regrets, cheat in secret, or interfere, they will immediately be devoured by the Heavenly Dao of the Era, their origin will collapse, their Dao foundation will be damaged, their Supreme Dao Fruit will be incomplete, and they will never have the chance to step into the Immortal King realm again in their lifetime!

At best, one's cultivation will stagnate for eternity; at worst, one will fall from the tenth realm and perish!

This is also the fundamental reason why no one dares to cheat or renege on the gamble between the Supreme Beings of the Cosmic Sea.

The price is too high for anyone to bear!

"May the Epoch bear witness!"

Qingfa shouted in a deep voice.

The bell tolled faintly, and the vast celestial sounds echoed in the chaos. The formless and intangible rules of the Heavenly Dao instantly enveloped Wang Sheng and Qing Fa.

Two vast and boundless supreme primordial energies rose from the bodies of the two individuals.

Qingfa's origin is vast and violent, like a boiling chaotic ocean, with a profound and ancient foundation, flowing with the traces of countless eras, and is all the accumulation of his billions of years of ruling his own universe.

Without hesitation, he stripped away, condensed, and sealed away all the fundamental essence of the entire universe, transforming it into a dark, profound sphere of primordial light that contained all paths, which floated beneath the light and shadow of the Epoch Bell.

Go all in, leave nothing behind!

He was betting on the inherent strength of his own universe, on the reincarnation potential of established universes, and on the shallow foundation and lack of resources of the newly ascended supreme beings!

He was certain that the reincarnated genius born from his universe, accumulated over billions of years, would absolutely crush Wang Sheng's newly born, formless universe.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Sheng raised his hand and recited a phrase.

boom!

Within the formless universe, galaxies trembled, the Great Dao flowed, and the origin surged.

He forcibly stripped away and condensed half of the vast and pure origin of the universe into a form.

This primordial divine light is clear and pure, full of vitality and prosperous in the Dao, encompassing half of the accumulated years, half of the foundation of Dao, and half of the essence of the Heavenly Dao since the birth of the Formless Universe.

Two primordial orbs of light, one black and one gold, one subdued and one radiant, floated beneath the Epoch Bell, facing each other and balancing one another.

"The stakes are set, the covenant is sealed!"

Qing Fa's gaze sharpened, and he spoke in a deep voice, finalizing the rules of the duel.

"First, neither of us shall, for the rest of our lives, interfere with the reincarnation, cultivation, opportunities, or life and death of the powerful beings we are reborn as!"

"Secondly, you must not secretly leave a divine soul imprint, arrange any backup plans, hint at the Heavenly Dao, or misappropriate resources!"

"Third, let everything take its natural course, start from scratch, rise up through your own efforts, and compete based on the right path!"

"Fourth, the gamble will only end when the two powerful beings reach the pinnacle of their respective universes and engage in a decisive battle to determine a victor or vanquished!"

"All the original bets of the loser belong entirely to the winner!"

Wang Sheng nodded slightly and responded indifferently:

"Can."

Thus, this supreme gamble, which will be etched in history and stakes the very essence of the universe's destiny, is now completely settled!

"Next, each of you will choose someone to send into the other's cosmic cycle of reincarnation!"

Qingfa's gaze sharpened, and his mind sank into the depths of his own universe.

The universe he governs has undergone countless eras of sedimentation, boasting numerous geniuses, taboos, and profound cultural heritage.

Countless top geniuses, ancient prodigies, and seeds of Dao bodies, dormant for millennia, are sealed deep within the origin of the universe, awaiting their chance to emerge.

After a moment, his gaze became resolute, and he had already chosen his candidate.

The person he chose was Qing Yan, the most brilliant and talented, the most heaven-defying potential, and the most aligned with the Dao of Reincarnation in the countless years of Qingyu.

In his previous life, this person reached the peak of the Ninety-Eight Steps, just half a step away from touching the threshold of the Tenth Realm. He possessed extraordinary comprehension, a resilient mind, decisiveness in killing, and had survived hundreds of cycles of reincarnation and countless battles!

Because he lacked the final opportunity to attain the Great Dao, he remained stuck at the forbidden peak and failed to become the master of the universe.

This time, reborn from scratch, shedding all constraints and going into battle lightly, relying on the advantage of reincarnation, they will be invincible among their own level and capable of killing those of higher levels. Their rise will be terrifyingly rapid!

"My person is Qingyan."

Qingfa's voice was calm, yet it carried absolute confidence.

Wang Sheng stood in the void, his mind gazing back at the formless universe.

In today's formless universe, all the old taboos have been cleared away and destroyed, turning into nourishment for the Heavenly Dao. The dust of the old era has settled, and the new era is bursting with vitality.

Countless new geniuses, young cultivators, and potential Dao bodies are rising rapidly under the pure and abundant nourishment of the Heavenly Dao.

In the entire universe, there is only one person with the most potential to turn the tide against all odds.

"That's me!"

Wang Sheng whispered.

next moment,

The flow of time is ceaseless, and the waves of years rise and fall, reflecting every trace and every past moment of the boundless universe from its birth to the present.

Wang Sheng's gaze pierced through the endless flow of time, precisely locking onto the original point, the primordial form of an infant he had just been born into this universe.

Boom!

The river of time surges violently, the lines of years intertwine across the sky, and countless moments flow backward and surround us.

Wang Sheng raised his hand and gently scooped out the original body of the newborn infant, which had been sealed for countless ages, from the vast river of time.

Without the slightest hesitation, he casually activated the interdimensional reincarnation channel, sending this wisp of his purest self-origin directly into Qingfa's pyramid killing domain universe, initiating a reincarnation and rebirth from scratch.

In the chaotic void beyond the realm, Qing Fa, who had been quietly observing the battle, was first stunned by this scene, then burst into laughter, his laughter echoing throughout the chaotic void.

"Hahaha! Fellow Daoist, you are indeed arrogant and overconfident!"

"I never expected you to be so arrogant, choosing not to select one of your own prodigies, but instead personally sending your own clone to participate in the betting!"

After laughing, Qingfa's eyes deepened, and he spoke calmly.

"But fellow Daoist, you may have forgotten that the rules, paths, and constraints of heaven and earth vary greatly among the different universes."

"You have ruled the formless universe for billions of years, and have long since adapted to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, the trajectory of the Great Dao, and the cultivation system of your own universe."

"But my universe is completely opposite to, and runs counter to, your formless universe!"

"You are accustomed to the workings of your own universe, but you may not be able to adapt to the cruel rules of my Killing Domain universe. If you are not careful, you will be hindered at every step and unable to move forward!"

Throughout the ages, few cosmic rulers have been willing to personally participate in the cycle of reincarnation and battle.

Ultimately, the problem lies in the rigidity of the path and the conflicting rules.

A cosmic master who has attained the tenth level of enlightenment is already deeply bound to his own universe. His Dao heart, Dao principles, cultivation mindset, and origin operation are all perfectly aligned with his own universe.

Having been reborn into another realm with memories of the ten realms of his previous life and his understanding of the Great Dao, his preconceived notions and obsessions were too deep.

In his own universe, he is the master who rules the rules.

However, when you step into someone else's universe, your past experience will become the biggest obstacle. You will feel out of place everywhere, encounter obstacles in your cultivation, and be hindered on your path. Not to mention reaching the peak, you will most likely be worse than an ordinary genius, and you will find it difficult to move forward.

On the contrary, those geniuses who did not attain the tenth level of enlightenment and grasp the origin of the universe were more able to thrive in the new universe and roam freely!

At this moment, Wang Sheng's nascent origin, having stepped into the Pyramid Killing Domain universe, instantly sensed the strangeness and cruelty of this universe.

The entire universe is not a flat expanse of stars and parallel heavens, but a giant, towering pyramid structure that spans countless ages, layer upon layer, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom!

Hierarchical structure, rigid class system, endless killing and destruction, perpetuating a cycle of life and death!

At the very bottom of the pyramid lies a vast and boundless expanse of star systems, where billions of races rule over their respective territories, with numerous kingdoms and spheres of influence.

There is no peaceful cultivation here, no tranquil life, only endless fighting and conquest.

Starfields fought bloody battles, nations clashed to the death, and races were wiped out. The flames of war spread across the land, leaving the lower realms covered in blood, mountains of corpses, and devastation.

The rules of this universe are simple and brutal: the victor receives the divine gift of origin, while the loser dies, their path is destroyed, their clan is wiped out, and their domain collapses!

Only by winning the endless war can any force or cultivator obtain the gifts of the universe's origin, break through realms, transcend the bottom, and ascend to a higher level of the pyramid.

Stepping into the next level, the rules remain exactly the same—endless battles, endless conquests, the victors ascend, and the losers perish.

As you ascend, each level becomes a purgatory; the higher you go, the stronger the opponents, the fiercer the battles, the purer your essence, and the more difficult the advancement!

The cycle repeats itself endlessly, without exception.

It can fight its way through the bottom millions, crush all enemies, and climb to the top layer by layer.

Ultimately, those who stand at the very top of the pyramid are all supreme killing gods who crush an era and sweep across a universe!

Qing Yan, whom Qing Fa sent this time, is the most amazing, most heaven-defying, and most near-supreme genius among all the peak killing gods in the history of this killing domain universe!

Having survived hundreds of eras, it is invincible in countless battles and unparalleled in its killing prowess, possessing terrifying depths to the extreme.

"What a desolate universe, a realm of slaughter that reigns supreme!"

Wang Sheng, observing from outside the realm, studied the rules of the entire universe through the perspective of reincarnation and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

In this world, the Heavenly Dao governs killing, and all other Daos govern war. All living beings are born for war and will not rest until death, and are born with the Dao of killing.

Every inch of air is filled with an atmosphere of bloodlust, rage, and competition, making it the perfect purgatory for nurturing invincible battle bodies and slaughtering geniuses.

"Fellow Daoist's formless universe is enduring and gentle, truly blessed by heaven."

Qingfa casually offered a polite compliment.

He could see clearly that Wang Sheng had previously slaughtered nearly 90% of the veteran forbidden powerhouses in the Boundless Universe in order to stabilize the universe and eliminate hidden dangers.

With the old giants all gone, there is a severe gap in high-end combat power. The Heavenly Dao appears pure and its foundation is refined, but in reality, there is a lack of successors and the strong are dying out. It is the time when it is most lacking in high-end combat power and most vulnerable and empty.

Qingyan was reborn into the formless universe and rose from nothing. He had all the advantages of timing and location, and his path ahead was smooth and unobstructed. His chances of winning were practically guaranteed.

But the next second,

Qing Fa's gaze fell upon Mount Buzhou in the formless universe, and his brow twitched slightly, as if he had gained some insight:

"However, Fellow Daoist's Mount Buzhou, which suppresses all heavens, governs all paths, and controls all living beings, with its layers of sealing and strict order, is quite similar to the hierarchical suppression of my Pyramid Killing Domain!"

"Of course, keep watching, and you will witness the wonders of Mount Buzhou!"

Wang Sheng smiled slightly.

then,

next moment,

Qingfa saw that

A pseudo-tenth-realm being at the fifth step and tenth realm on Mount Buzhou.

He suddenly made his move.

With a single finger,

It landed on a seventh-realm Yang God Immortal Lord.

This was all because this Yang Shen Immortal Lord resonated with the Great Dao of the Universe when he was about to succeed in breaking through to the eighth realm of Sainthood.

At that very moment, the Yangshen Immortal Lord cursed the First Saint in his heart, which allowed the Demon Suppressing Emperor on Mount Buzhou to sense this person through Mount Buzhou and by controlling the Great Dao of the Universe.

Therefore,

This pseudo-tenth-realm powerhouse did not have someone else fight for him, but instead took matters into his own hands and killed the seventh-realm Yang God Immortal Lord who was about to step into the eighth realm.

A pseudo-tenth realm cultivator fighting a seventh realm cultivator!

Qingfa witnessed this scene and pondered for a moment.

then,

After observing the Wuxiang Universe for ten years, Qingfa's expression turned completely grim, and he remained silent.

Because in these ten years,

The pseudo-Ten Realm expert on Mount Buzhou, lacking any demeanor of a strong person, repeatedly took action personally to kill those geniuses who dared to defy Mount Buzhou.

This has caused too many promising talents to die with regrets before they have even grown up.

Even with overwhelming luck, one still cannot escape the personal intervention of a pseudo-tenth-realm expert.

Many of these prodigies are disciples or descendants of those forbidden beings.

To cut the weeds, you must pull them out by the roots.

Therefore, the Demon Suppressing Emperor, Emperor Ming, and others took more action, which made Qing Fa very unhappy and disgusted.

All paths, all opportunities, and all variables were blocked by the top-level powerhouses!

As soon as someone shows even a little bit of prowess or makes a slight breakthrough, they will immediately be targeted by the powerful figures of the Divine Mountain. If they do not submit to Buzhou Mountain, they will be suppressed and annihilated with a wave of their hand!

Where is the point of the betting competition?

It doesn't rely on talent, fighting, or chance at all; it relies entirely on survival and luck!

Qingfa's heart was filled with rage.

He had traversed countless eras in the cosmic sea, witnessed countless cosmic structures and cultivation practices, but he had never seen such shameless and outrageous cosmic rules!

They blatantly blocked the path to growth for all talented outsiders, acting arrogantly, without any rules, and extremely insidious!

Completely disregarding the rules, how can Qingyan grow after his reincarnation? Does everything depend on luck?

Qingfa harbored resentment, unable to understand how such a shameless trend could have arisen in the Boundless Universe.

If it were merely the creatures on Mount Buzhou obeying the Lord of the Universe and bullying the weak, that would be one thing.

Without the intervention of the Lord of the Universe, the beings on Mount Buzhou have no way to monitor all living beings in the universe.

The problem is that all beings in the Wuxiang Universe, from top to bottom, regardless of whether they are from Buzhou Mountain or not, have a surprisingly similar temperament!

The pseudo-tenth realm is fighting against the seventh realm.

The ninth realm attacks the sixth realm.

There are even examples of a seventh-realm Yang God Immortal Lord defeating a third-realm Yu Zhen!

Qingfa felt like cursing while watching this!
