Swallowing the starry sky, my clones can evolve infinitely.

Chapter 238 Achieving Sainthood! A terrifying universe with a diameter of trillions of light-years!

The primordial universe, a corner of the original plane.

Endless white dust floated in the void, and figures watched this scene in shock.

The Primordial One murmured to himself, "The Land of Origin... so this is what it looks like."

As an entity that once attempted to possess the primordial universe, the primordial ancestor's will also clashed with the will of the primordial universe.

However, the primordial ancestor's will ultimately not reach the level of sainthood. Even after being suppressed for countless years, his state of mind underwent a transformation during the suppression, and he is now only at the peak of the Eternal True God level.

Therefore, this was the first time the Primordial Ancestor had entered this place of origin of the universe.

Many people reacted similarly to the original ancestor, including the Lord of Ice Peak, the Lord of Qianwu Kingdom, and others, all of whom were shocked.

Boom!

With a tremendous roar, countless specks of light began to converge, and the entire primordial universe began to shrink.

"The primordial land has begun to change!"

"Concentrate your mind and comprehend!"

At this moment, in the center of the Origin Land, the ancient Origin Dragon began to rise again.

The twenty-four-clawed dragon's body touched every corner of the primordial universe, and the rich fluctuations of the Great Dao of Life's origin began to evolve.

Strands of destructive Daoist energy spread out.

Yin gives rise to Yang; the principle of reversal at the extremes is nothing more than this.

"The cycle of life and death... I see."

Shen Mu's will began to rise and merge with the vast primordial dragon.

The primordial will, about to fall into slumber, still emitted some emotions of anxiety and fear.

Since Shen Mu's will has reached the level of becoming a saint, if one wants to take advantage of this opportunity to possess him, the success rate will definitely increase significantly.

"Peace of mind."

Shen Mu sent out a wisp of thought to comfort the primordial will, and then the vast thought began to spread, merging into every speck of dust in the vast universe.

With Shen Mu's current level of willpower, he can now perfectly integrate his consciousness into every basic particle and every fundamental energy field.

Experience the Great Collapse of the Primordial Universe from an absolutely microscopic perspective.

"Is this... the chaotic evolution of the primordial universe?"

The attainment of true godhood and the birth of a miniature universe will involve a chaotic evolution.

However, for the primordial universe, each cycle of birth and death is a chaotic evolution.

"No wonder Master Zuoshanke said that even with his level of cultivation, possessing the original universe would be of some benefit."

Clearly, while simply comprehending the fundamental Dao of life may be helpful to a God-King level expert, such an expert would not abandon their primary Dao to cultivate the Dao of life.

This benefit should be reflected in the evolution of the rules governing the universe during each cycle of birth and death in the primordial universe.

……

Outside, aboard an ancient spaceship, figures with their eyes closed opened one after another.

"The end of the universe is here."

The primordial ancestor's gaze fell upon the former location of the original universe, that vast and boundless cosmos, which had vanished. Only an endless condensed state of origin remained, radiating fluctuations that made all life tremble.

Beside the progenitor, Luo Feng, Hong, Thor, Lord of Ice Peak, Lord of Qianwu Kingdom, and others opened their eyes one after another.

"It's a pity it was too short," Luo Feng said with a hint of reminiscence.

With the complete collapse of the primordial universe, their avatars left in the original space also collapsed.

Everyone was reminiscing about the Daoist aura of the universe's destruction, but Hong suddenly opened his eyes.

"The Great Way of Life... I understand."

Hong's voice was calm, like an ancient monk chanting scriptures, which drew the attention of everyone present.

Then, a special fluctuation was felt emanating from Hong's body.

Boom!

Hong's divine power underwent a transformation, and his life genes finally embarked on the first stage of the divine power path.

Don't think that Hong's progress is slow. Compared to Shen Mu and Luo Feng, Hong's progress is indeed not fast.

However, Hong did not have the "Creation" secret method, which was an accelerator for analyzing life genes. His process of analyzing life genes was hundreds of millions of times slower than that of the two of them.

To have reached the first stage of the divine power path within trillions of epochs shows that Hong's comprehension is already quite good.

If placed on the continent of origin, this would be roughly several thousand epochs.

A cosmic master who has been able to reach the first stage of the divine power path within a few thousand epochs can be considered an elite disciple.

As long as I don't perish, reaching the second stage shouldn't be a problem... As for achieving the Infinite Divine Body, there's not much hope, unless I have a great stroke of luck.

"Congratulations, Brother Hong, on your breakthrough!"

Luo Feng offered his heartfelt blessings, then asked, "Brother Hong, when do you plan to break through to the True God realm?"

Hong didn't hide anything and said directly, "According to Amu's idea, it's not too late to break through when the next reincarnation era begins."

Thor, standing to the side, stroked his bald head. He had also gained a great deal this time, but it was still far less than what he had gained from Hong.

"Let's go, wait for Amu to come out of seclusion." Thor patted his brothers on the shoulders.

……

At this moment, Shen Mu's will had returned to itself, but he had entered a state of enlightenment.

The main body, the second main body, and the true dragon avatar are all in seclusion, and everyone is waiting for Shen Mu to emerge from seclusion.

"Chaos... is the origin of the concept of spacetime. The mystery of chaos lies in the absence of spacetime. I finally understand."

Previously, Shen Mu had been trying to perfectly integrate the laws of spacetime with the other eight fundamental laws.

But there was always a fog blocking Shen Mu's way, and he could never figure it out.

In reality, this so-called bottleneck is a cognitive problem, namely, Shen Mu viewed the law of chaos as a kind of fusion law.

A supreme law of fusion.

This is actually incorrect. The laws of chaos are simply the laws of chaos, singular and pure, not some ultimate fusion law.

The fundamental laws of metal, wood, water, fire, etc., as well as the complex and integrated laws, are all complete and independent laws. They are a superficial manifestation of the laws of chaos, rather than an incomplete part of the laws of chaos.

Once you understand this principle, you can gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between the Laws of Water and the Great Way of Water.

Time turns and years pass.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a million epochs have passed since the collapse of the original universe.

The primordial universe of the new era has been born. At this time, the primordial universe is in its most initial state, where matter and energy have not yet been separated and are presented in the form of a "primordial soup".

At this point, life had not yet truly begun to develop.

On this day, a vast and unique fluctuation emanated from the primordial plane of Shen Mu's miniature universe.

In an instant, the trillions of life forms living in Shenmu's miniature universe all felt a sudden, inexplicable urge, and unconsciously looked up at the endless starry sky.

Those who felt it most deeply were naturally the many powerful individuals who were attached to Shen Mu's origin.

One after another, figures appeared outside Baiyujing, including friends such as Hong and Leishen, as well as teachers such as the Lord of Ice Peak and the Lord of Qianwu Kingdom.

"This fluctuation... Amu is about to emerge from seclusion." Hong looked towards the Miro Palace, the deepest part of Baiyujing.

hum!

As time and space rippled, Chi Yi's figure appeared: "It seems that Master has finally broken through the bottleneck."

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the central plane where Bai Yujing was located, and a void passage appeared, extending towards the origin of the miniature universe.

Similar scenarios not only occurred in the central plane, but also in various timelines within Shen Mu's miniature universe.

In each spacetime, a void passage appears, connecting to Shen Mu's original plane.

Whoosh!

Endless chaotic energy flowed out from those void passages, and boundless energy merged into every spacetime.

The entire mini-universe was thrown into turmoil once again, and every spacetime began to expand and grow.

Outside, a small universe with a diameter of one billion light-years is expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.

One billion light-years, two billion light-years... The cosmic membrane is expanding wildly, devouring all matter and energy in its path.

Such a commotion naturally alerted powerful figures like Luo Feng and the Primordial Ancestor immediately.

One after another, divine power emanated from Shen Mu's miniature universe.

"Senior brother has finally broken through."

As soon as Luo Feng finished speaking, just as he was about to break through, he saw Shen Mu's figure appear beside him.

"Wait a bit. My miniature universe takes a long time to evolve. You can start your breakthrough after my miniature universe reaches a diameter of hundreds of billions of light-years."

"Billions of light-years?"

"A miniature universe!?"

The sheer amount of information in Shen Mu's words left many powerful figures present speechless, especially the Eastern Emperor Ancestor.

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor had been wandering the Origin Continent for over a million epochs (one cycle of reincarnation is 1 epochs), and had a clear concept of the size of a small universe.

The diameter of a typical Eternal God's small universe is only two or three hundred billion light-years, and even the strongest Eternal Gods are only four or five hundred billion light-years.

Small universes spanning hundreds of billions of light-years are generally the small universes of the legendary Great Sage of Chaos.

"Alliance Leader, have you broken through to the Chaos Realm?"

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor looked at Shen Mu uncertainly. At this moment, Shen Mu did not show any fluctuation of energy aura in his perception, as if he did not exist.

The more this was the case, the more alarmed the Eastern Emperor Ancestor became.

Shen Mu smiled and nodded, saying, "I was lucky enough to comprehend the laws of chaos, but I still have to wait for the small universe evolution to end before I can achieve the Chaos Realm."

As he spoke, Shen Mu's miniature universe continued to expand.

Countless void passages, like octopus tentacles, extended from Shen Mu's miniature universe, probing into the depths of the cosmic sea and frantically devouring the endless chaotic energy.

Billions of light-years, tens of billions of light-years, two hundred billion light-years...

As time passed, the miniature universe grew larger and larger, and the scale of its consumption of chaotic energy also increased.

From a distance, a terrifying chaotic storm vortex formed around Shen Mu's miniature universe.

The entire chaotic vortex storm had a diameter of trillions of light-years, and the violent energy fluctuations made the many powerful figures present tremble with fear.

"The energy of the chaotic storm is too intense; we can no longer perceive how large the Alliance Leader's miniature universe has expanded."

"This size must be at least a hundred billion light-years in diameter, right?"

Many True Gods turned their gazes toward Shen Mu. At this moment, Shen Mu finally spoke, saying to Luo Feng and the others, "Junior Brothers, you should begin your breakthrough."

Luo Feng and Yuan Zu nodded solemnly, and then their miniature universes began to expand.

Unlike in the original story, the original ancestor and Luo Feng experienced the Great Cataclysm of the Primordial Universe together, gaining much insight and enlightenment in the Land of Origin.

Therefore, both of them broke through to the realm of Eternal God in one go.

"I wonder to what extent the primordial universe of the Milky Way could expand."

"The Galactic Ancestor's miniature universe must also be extremely large. After all, at the True God level, the Galactic Ancestor's miniature universe is the same size as the Alliance Leader's."

Among the crowd, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor explained with a smile: "Starting from the True God level, the expansion of the small universe is generally about ten times for each breakthrough in a realm."

"Based on this ratio, if the Galactic Elders and the original Elders were to achieve Eternity level at the same time, the diameter of the small universe would be hundreds of times larger than it is now."

"However, the original elder's situation is special. He is also a true god who follows the path of laws. When he breaks through to the Void level, his small universe should undergo an additional expansion."

In the original work, when the Protoss was at the Void level, the size of the mini-universe was 52 billion light-years.

This is incredible, because the primordial being was a mediocre cosmic structure with a set of laws.

The two conditions that determine the foundation of a small universe are the most basic. The original ancestor relied on his high level of understanding to forcefully push the diameter to 52 billion light-years.

However, the situation is different now.

The ancestor had already become a true god, so his life gene level was completely fixed and could not be improved. Shen Mu was helpless about this.

However, the architecture of a miniature universe is not immutable, but the cost is enormous, just like the giant axe that came about in the first place.

Generally speaking, even the entire fortune of an ordinary peak-level Eternal True God might not be enough to justify the cost of a True God reshaping the architecture of a small universe.

However, Shen Mu has money, so a complete overhaul is all he needs to do.

"The diameter of the original ancestor's miniature universe is fixed at 74 billion light-years!!!"

"The Galactic Elders are still expanding!"

"It's stopped. It's been ten billion light-years!"

Before these true gods could even catch their breath, the miniature universes of the Primordial Ancestor and Luo Feng began to expand once again.

As time passed, Luo Feng and the Primordial Ancestor's miniature universes were the first to expand and evolve.

Two enormous objects have appeared in the cosmic ocean, one with a diameter of hundreds of billions of light-years and the other with a diameter of 680 billion light-years.

At this moment, Shen Mu's expansion of his miniature universe also came to an end.

The endless, raging vortex of chaos has dissipated, and amidst the swirling, chaotic currents, one can vaguely see a universe nearly a trillion light-years in diameter, slowly expanding.

Within the miniature universe, Shen Mu's true form slowly opened his eyes.

"All these years of accumulated divine power are still not enough."

Shen Mu possesses the bloodline of the Devouring Dao. Although he did not deliberately study the Great Dao of Devouring, he successfully entered the basics over trillions of epochs.

Therefore, the speed at which the miniature universe absorbs energy every moment is several times that of Luo Feng's miniature universe, and the accumulated divine power is also greater.

Even so, after breaking through three major realms in succession and increasing his divine power by a million times, he was still far from being good enough.

hum!

An invisible force spread out, the primordial will of the original universe.

At this moment, the Primal Universe is even more cautious when facing Shen Mu. Now, if Shen Mu wants to possess the Primal Universe, it will probably be effortless.

"I understand, I understand, I'll be free from the cycle of reincarnation soon."

The primordial will of the original universe is urging Shen Mu and others to transcend reincarnation, but it dares not force them.

The highest rules wouldn't personally intervene to force a true god of the void to transcend; that wouldn't be of a higher level.

Therefore, the supreme rules will only loosen the restrictions on the origin of the primordial universe, allowing the will of the primordial universe to force them to transcend.

However, even without the urging of the primordial will, after achieving the realm of Void True God, one can still feel a summons from the Origin Continent.

As time goes by, this call will grow stronger and stronger. This is a manifestation of the supreme rule. Under normal circumstances, there is no existence that surpasses the true god within the universe.

"The three teachers, and Brother Hong, you can all break through to the True God realm."

"I will carve out a portion of the universe's origin, allowing you to create your own miniature universes."

For Shen Mu now, the drain on small universes for cultivating a few true gods is negligible. He can restore the depleted cosmic essence in just a moment.
