Swallowing the starry sky, my clones can evolve infinitely.

Chapter 229 Ten Thousand Times Great Perfection, A Hymn to the Cosmic Sea

In a virtual universe, within a magnificent ancient palace.

Countless figures of true gods came and went, sharing information with each other.

"I haven't found any trace of the Beast of the Realm here."

"It's the same here; the Beasts have started a massive retreat!"

"Haha, these beasts finally know fear. In front of the Alliance Leader, what are these Realm Beasts... utterly pathetic!"

"I just passed by the Eastern Emperor Holy Land and discovered that the universe of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land has begun to expand... Perhaps the Eastern Emperor Ancestor has broken through to a higher level of Eternal Realm."

Many true gods were chatting and laughing together. The situation was now very good, and no longer could one see any tension on their faces.

Suddenly, ripples spread through the void, and the true god of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land, the Northern True Star Lord, appeared.

The many true gods had just been discussing the expansion of the Eastern Emperor's Holy Land when they saw the figure of the Northern True Star Lord appear, and they all decided to verify the information.

However, before they could get close, another figure appeared in the void. It was an old man dressed in white robes with strange branches stuck in his head.

There was an extremely special vitality emanating from this old man, which made everyone present turn their heads.

"So this is the virtual universe of the human race... It seems that the progenitor of this human race was also a person of extraordinary talent."

As an Eternal True God-level powerhouse, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor could not see the detailed secrets of the virtual universe, but he could sense that the virtual universe was not simple.

Before the Eastern Emperor Ancestor could finish speaking, the figure of the Primordial Ancestor appeared.

"This... must be the founder of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land, Senior Eastern Emperor, right?"

The progenitor wore a gentle smile, his attitude remaining unchanged despite the fact that the Eastern Emperor Ancestor was a super strong individual.

The virtual universe network only covers the original universe and the original ancestor's own small universe. Therefore, if a powerful being in the cosmic sea wants to log into the virtual universe, they must send a wisp of divine power to the original universe.

When the Eastern Emperor Ancestor entered the Initial Universe, the Primordial Ancestor, as the master of the Initial Universe, sensed the special fluctuations emanating from the Eastern Emperor Ancestor.

Don't underestimate the Eastern Emperor Ancestor just because he is merely an incarnation of divine power. His energy intensity is only a hundred times that of a Universe Venerable, which is one hundred billionth of his original body.

However, if it really came down to a fight, ninety-nine percent of true gods would be no match for this incarnation of divine power.

In the common knowledge of powerful beings in the cosmic sea, divine incarnations are basically just communication tools and have no combat power.

Even if it is the embodiment of the true god's divine power, in terms of combat strength, it may not be a match for someone who has just entered the Immortal Realm.

But sometimes, if one's level of understanding is high enough, it can make up for the gap.

At the peak of the fourteenth rank, with just this divine avatar, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor possessed the strength of a nascent true god. If he were to wield one or two supreme treasures, his strength would be even more terrifying.

Ordinary True Gods cannot comprehend the secret runes of a supreme treasure with tenth-order power, but for the Eastern Emperor Ancestor, they can see through them at a glance.

Even if their divine power foundation is too weak to unleash the power of a tenth-order being, they are still much stronger than those who have just entered the realm of true godhood.

"He...he is the progenitor of the Eastern Emperor?"

"It is said that after transcending reincarnation, there are only divine incarnations within the small universe, which are not to be feared."

"What are you thinking? The Eastern Emperor Ancestor is also a member of my Hong Alliance."

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor didn't put on airs and said with a smile, "I am also a member of the Hong Alliance and follow the orders of the Alliance Leader. You all don't need to be so formal."

Despite this, the original ancestor still gave the Eastern Emperor the respect he deserved.

"Senior Dongdi is the oldest cultivator in our universe, and should rightfully take the seat of honor, ranking among the elders of the Hong Alliance."

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony." The Eastern Emperor Ancestor laughed heartily.

Seeing that the Eastern Emperor Ancestor was so easy to talk to, many true gods were no longer reserved, and some even dared to step forward and ask some questions about cultivation.

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor did not keep his secrets to himself; he answered all the questions he could.

In an instant, news of the Eastern Emperor Ancestor's appearance in the virtual universe spread among the True Gods of all races. All the True Gods rushed to the virtual universe, eager to meet this ancient powerhouse.

In a short period of time, more than 700 true gods gathered in the Hongmeng Grand Hall plane.

Just as everyone was engrossed in their conversation, Shen Mu's figure appeared out of thin air.

"Alliance Leader!"

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"

More than seven hundred true gods immediately stood up and bowed to Shen Mu.

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor in the center of the crowd also bowed and said, "Greetings, Alliance Leader."

Shen Mu nodded slightly and said, "The Great Calamity of the Beast Realm has come to a temporary end."

As Shen Mu finished speaking, the True Gods present erupted in excitement once again.

Throughout these billions of epochs, the Great Calamity of the Beast Realm has hovered over everyone's heads like the Sword of Damocles, causing them great anxiety.

Now, the pressure from the Beast Realm has dissipated, even subtly affecting the minds of several True Gods, as if the bottlenecks that were once difficult to overcome have loosened.

"There are still some Beasts of the Universe lingering in the sea of ​​space. I urge you all not to be careless. If you spot a Beast of the Universe, report it to the Hong Alliance immediately."

Upon hearing this, the many true gods immediately bowed and agreed.

"Yes, Alliance Leader!"

"We obey the Alliance Leader's command!"

Shen Mu nodded slightly, then his gaze fell on the Eastern Emperor Ancestor.

"The great calamity of the Beast Realm has been initially quelled, and Elder Dongdi has broken through to the Eternal Realm. These are two great joyous events for the Hong Alliance and should be celebrated."

As soon as Shen Mu finished speaking, the ancestor beside him waved his hand, and countless delicacies and food appeared, starting a grand celebration.

At the head of the banquet, Shen Mu sat upright in the Alliance Chairman's seat, flanked by two old fellows, Zuo Shan Ke and Dong Di Shi Zu, and the rest were peak experts such as Yuan Zu and Luo Feng.

"I will be going into seclusion for a while, so I'll leave the Hongmeng business to you all."

"The Great Calamity of the Beast Realms is not yet completely over. Currently, a sixth-order Beast Realms is lurking in the Cosmic Sea."

"Although this sixth-order world beast has billions of clones and no longer possesses its peak strength, we still cannot be complacent."

As soon as Shen Mu finished speaking, the expressions of the original ancestor, Luo Feng, and even the Eastern Emperor Ancestor changed slightly, while only the Mountain Guest remained calm.

The strength of a sixth-order world beast was clear to all the elders of the Hong Alliance present.

Starting with fifth-tier world beasts, destroying a true god's miniature universe is no longer a problem.

However, a fifth-tier world beast would have to pay a huge price to unleash such an attack, and if it were to use it repeatedly, it might even experience a drop in its cultivation level.

However, for a sixth-tier world beast, although such an attack cannot be considered a normal attack, it does not require any cost, and its cultivation level will not drop.

"Senior brother, are you confident you can kill this sixth-order world beast?" Luo Feng asked, looking at Shen Mu.

Shen Mu shook his head helplessly: "The strength of a sixth-order world beast is nothing in front of me, but its ability to protect itself is unparalleled."

"Especially since this sixth-tier world beast also knows my information, as long as one of my clones hasn't perished, it won't be killed."

"Of course, it's not like there's absolutely no way..."

Shen Mu revealed his plan to enslave a World Beast, train it to the sixth rank, and force the two sixth-rank World Beasts into a decisive battle.

The only difficulty lies in enslaving the beasts of the realm.

Among the many powerful figures present, apart from Zuo Shan Ke and Luo Feng, no one understood the difficulty of enslaving the Beast of the Realm.

As a reincarnated god-king, Zuo Shan Ke could naturally understand, while Luo Feng had personally tested it.

Faced with Luo Feng's will at the level of an Eternal True God, he had already suppressed several first-order world beasts, but he was unable to enslave them.

As for the reason for the failure, it was the same as Shen Mu's: the divine power and the power of the realm beast would cancel each other out.

……

After the banquet, Shen Mu began his seclusion.

Within the vast and boundless divine kingdom, an endless, chaotic, and dark sea surges.

Shen Mu's true dragon avatar hovered above the Nether Sea, with endless divine power intertwined before him.

The countless threads of divine power are evolving, forming incredibly complex secret patterns. This is the genetic life structure diagram deduced by Shen Mu, which is ten thousand times stronger than the original, but it is inexplicably unstable.

"Where exactly is the problem?"

With time accelerated a million times, Shen Mu's thoughts surged like a storm.

As Shen Mu comprehends the Dao of Mind and Soul, his own thinking speed and comprehension also improve time and time again.

Life, destruction!

These two paths contain the secrets of a hundred thousand times the genetic potential. Perhaps other paths also contain this secret, but this is the only path to success that Shen Mu knows of.

Shen Mu's will merged with the primordial universe once again, and all life in the entire universe was within Shen Mu's sight.

Shen Mu saw his children sparring, with the Earthling himself and Tang Yongqing acting as referees, guiding their matches.

Shen Mu also saw countless living beings who were completely unaware of the existence of the Great Calamity of the Beast Realm, and also unaware of the destruction and reincarnation of the primordial universe.

Lifespans of decades or centuries are too short for the primordial universe; the destruction of the universe and the great calamity of the world beasts mean nothing to them.

"The relationship between life and the primordial universe is too mysterious; this is the most beautiful manifestation of the fundamental Tao of life."

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Shen Mu.

The space-time around the true dragon avatar began to ripple, and then disappeared directly into Shen Mu's divine kingdom.

……

The cosmic sea, the peak boundary, the dark land.

The last time he came to the Dark Land, it was only a fleeting glimpse. Now, Shen Mu has returned to the Dark Land with a mindset of thorough study.

"A being capable of giving birth to a Beast of the Realm... this dark place must be quite extraordinary."

Shen Mu's eyes surged with divine light, and endless soul power, accompanied by the will of the peak realm of the Eternal True God, swept out and permeated the entire dark place.

"This dimly lit place... is too similar to a miniature universe."

"However, the structure of this dark place is completely different from the structure of the true god's universe."

The entire dark place was a huge supersphere enveloped by endless black currents of energy that contained destructive power, but it was not very large.

In fact, the main mountain of the entire Qingfeng Realm is less than 100 million light-years high, which could be occupied by any small universe of a True God.

"This feeling... is so similar to the life structure diagram of the Beast Realm."

"The Dark Land is an embryo... and the Beasts of the Realm are the result of this embryo's development."

"Both of these are the most beautiful manifestations of the Great Dao of Destruction."

At this moment, under the influence of Shen Mu's will, the structure of the entire primordial universe and the structure of the Dark Land simultaneously emerged.

Both are infinitely mysterious, and Shen Mu, at his current level, cannot possibly see through the true mysteries within these structures.

But Shen Mu didn't need to fully understand its true mysteries; he only needed to verify the differences between these two major structures and the 100,000-fold gene map he had deduced.

"I see... The framework I deduced has so many flaws, no wonder it's unstable."

Endless information surged within Shen Mu's heart; this was the culmination and accumulation of a hundred trillion epochs of time, accelerated a million times.

A wealth of information and insights collided in Shen Mu's heart, sparking endless inspiration and inspiration.

……

The headquarters of the Hongmeng Alliance is located on the mainland, on Earth.

"Qingyang, your secret technique is too crude, far inferior to your sister's."

"If your sister hadn't let you win, you would have lost already."

Tang Yongqing was enthusiastically stirring things up when she suddenly sensed a peculiar fluctuation.

Then Tang Yongqing turned to look at her lover and saw that Shen Mu's Earthling self had closed his eyes and had an indescribable smile on his face.

That smile seemed to contain a special magic; seeing it filled Tang Yongqing with a great joy and satisfaction.

"Buzz~~~"

A melodious buzzing sound arose, its transitions and inflections unusually unique, as if countless goddesses were chanting hymns, sacred and ethereal.

In the small world not far away, Shen Mingyue and Shen Qingyang, who were sparring, stopped and turned their gazes to Shen Mu.

Shen Qingyang stared at Shen Mu in shock: "Father, what... major principle have you comprehended this time?"

"What beautiful music! It has an indescribable sense of sacredness." A look of intoxication appeared in Shen Mingyue's eyes.

It is incredible that a cosmic ruler could be so captivated by sound alone.

"Buzz—Ang—Ah—"

The melody, like a goddess's hymn, began to spread, and in the blink of an eye, it swept across the entire primordial universe.

Countless people heard this exquisite, soul-stirring chant, as if the primordial universe were praising the arrival of a supreme being.

Just a moment later, Shen Mu opened his eyes.

"Life and destruction are two sides of the same coin."

Strands of golden light spread throughout Shen Mu's body, then intertwined at the center of his brow, condensing into a golden divine seal.

The divine power that had been gathered from the golden divine seal broke through its shackles at this moment and transformed into a state of perfection ten thousand times greater.

hum!

A special fluctuation spread through Shen Mu's five divine bodies, and each of them began its final transformation!

However, only the Earthling's true form exhibited a tremendous anomaly. This anomaly was produced by the supreme rules and could only appear on Shen Mu's true form.

Wow!

In the blink of an eye, all five of Shen Mu's divine bodies completed their final transformation.

The changes were most significant in the World Tree clone and the Earthling original, both of which saw their genes surge from the most ordinary 10,000 times to an absolutely perfect 100,000 times.

Because the life structure diagram that Shen Mu comprehended has transcended the limits caused by different genes, it is perfect and complete, and it is the end of the genetic evolution of any type of life!

The saying "different paths lead to the same destination" is nothing more than this.

Suddenly, the golden light on Shen Mu's true Earthly form intensified.

In an instant, endless, dazzling golden light illuminated the Hongmeng Continent, the most prosperous regions of the universe, the entire primordial universe, and even the entire cosmic ocean through the cosmic membrane.

Throughout the endless universe and among all living beings, wherever one may be in the vast ocean of the universe, one can see the dazzling golden light sweeping forth.

Like a supreme 'divine sun' rising, it shines brilliantly from the primordial universe, illuminating endless time and space.

Whether it is a true god, the lord of the universe, or a newly born infant, a tiny, mindless life form, or any other form of life such as flesh and blood, energy, or plants, it is all possible to question whether it is a life form of flesh and blood, energy, or plants.

Every living being, as long as it has will and thought, can see an incomparably majestic, vast and great figure emerge in the depths of their consciousness.

"Alliance Leader!"

"It's the leader of the alliance!"

An instinctive sense of reverence welled up in the hearts of all life in this cosmic ocean dimension.

This is the respect and reverence that lower-level life forms have for higher-level life forms; it is a respect that originates from the supreme rules!

A hymn, like a goddess's chant, resounded throughout the universe, and boundless golden light illuminated every layer of time and space.

Under the lingering hymns and the golden light, countless races and beings involuntarily knelt down, bowing and praising Shen Mu in his direction!
