"Teacher Hu Yanbo,"
Lin Hao spoke calmly, "Let Babata tell you the details slowly. If you need anything, feel free to contact me in the virtual universe—you old friends are reunited, I'm leaving now."
Before the words were even finished, the person had already turned into starlight and vanished into thin air.
Once Lin Hao left, Hu Yanbo and his group finally relaxed, patting their chests and panting heavily.
……
Another layer of the virtual universe, the exclusive dimension of the creator of the giant axe.
Endless darkness holds up the stars, and the silent square hangs in the void.
Swish!
Lin Hao's figure solidified and became visible.
"Brother Huang Tian!"
"Huang Tian has arrived!"
The lords of the universe greeted us warmly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and familiar.
Lin Hao nodded in response, took a few steps to his seat and sat down, his gaze falling on the Giant Axe Founder in the main seat, and then turning to the Chaos City Lord sitting beside him.
"teacher."
"The founder of the giant axe".
"Lin Hao."
The Lord of Chaos City smiled and called to him.
"Huang Tian,"
The Giant Axe Founder looked over with satisfaction, his tone gratified. "Well done! We've covered the whole thing. Your decision to exchange that artifact for the Black Universe Founder was flawless! First, it avoids incurring the wrath of the Primal Universe Will; second, we haven't lost out at all by acquiring those top-tier treasures!"
The other cosmic lords nodded in agreement.
Although there was some regret in their hearts, since the Lord of the Yellow Heaven had done it, the result was not bad, and everyone quickly let it go.
"I am currently exploring the inner region of the Cosmic Sea Peak Realm,"
The founder of the giant axe scanned the entire scene, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes. "If I'm lucky enough to get a fragment of the inner domain map, who knows what good stuff I might find this time! I swear—I'll get the human race an ultimate treasure!"
"Don't rush, Giant Axe! Take your time, we'll get the treasure sooner or later."
"Exactly! Don't put too much pressure on yourself, the inner region is still very dangerous!"
The lords of the universe quickly interjected to offer words of comfort.
Luo Feng clenched his fists silently, his eyes resolute.
Wow!
The creator of the giant axe waved his hand, and the light and shadow blurred and disappeared.
"A fragmentary map of the Inner Domain of the Peak-Tilting Realm?"
Lin Hao frowned.
The Lord of Yuan'ao's silk-threading diagram was clearly already in his hands, so this incomplete diagram in the giant axe's hand... could it be a trap?
He vaguely remembered that in the original plot, before the Yuan'ao incident, the founder of the giant axe had wandered around the cosmic sea, also driven by a fragment of a map.
The fragment of the map in his hand shouldn't be related to his later demise, right?
"Brother Giant Axe, please be careful and don't overdo it!"
Lin Hao silently recited in his heart.
He had no desire to take on the arduous task of carrying the burden of the human race after the death of the giant axe—not that he couldn't handle it, but he was genuinely afraid of the fatigue!
Wouldn't it be better to be a carefree and unrestrained wanderer?
I wonder when the original ancestor will be released...
He just wanted to develop and level up steadily, and spend more time talking about love with the older sisters.
You can be incredibly strong, but never be like Luo Feng from the original novel, always putting out fires!
Having this big shot on my side is a real headache!
However, it's still a long way from the giant axe's demise.
After finishing their business, the lords of the universe chatted idly for a few more minutes before leaving.
"Lin Hao, come to Thunder Island for a visit sometime. I have important business to discuss."
Before leaving, the Lord of Chaos transmitted his voice privately.
"Row!"
Lin Hao understood immediately.
The Lord of Chaos City is definitely going to arrange things in the Cosmic Sea.
……
Deep within the virtual universe, on the edge of a cliff at the highest point of Thunder Island.
A solitary pavilion hangs on the edge of a sea of clouds.
As soon as Lin Hao stepped onto the lawn, the Lord of Chaos City was already sitting at the round table in the pavilion, beckoning him with a toast—the aroma of food and wine filled the air.
"teacher."
Lin Hao bowed slightly.
"Come and sit down!"
The Lord of Chaos City waved his hand in greeting.
Lin Hao entered the pavilion and sat down. The Lord of Chaos City picked up the wine pot, poured a full cup for Lin Hao, and then filled his own cup.
"Thank you for your hard work."
The Lord of Chaos City laughed, "You guessed what I was going to say, didn't you?"
"Universe Sea!"
Lin Hao pointed it out directly.
The Lord of Chaos sighed, "That's right, your strength was enough to go long ago. Who else would indulge in the gentle embrace of the Zerg for two and a half eras after breaking through to the level of the Universe Lord? ...Get to the point!"
He cleared his throat and his expression turned serious.
"Compared to the cosmic ocean, the primordial universe is just a warm bed! Small-scale skirmishes are quite safe, but the cosmic ocean is the real battlefield!"
"The top cosmic rulers before the Great Cataclysm, even the strongest beings in the universe, were all crammed there!"
"Danger and opportunity coexist! In the deepest parts of the three forbidden zones of the cosmic sea, even the strongest beings in the universe risk their demise!"
Lin Hao listened quietly, his eyes growing brighter with each word.
"That's where the strong gather! All the treasures and top-tier materials are sourced from the universe!"
The Chaos City Lord clicked his tongue in disapproval. "The Primordial Star only opens its gate once every few million years, and the best treasures that emerge are only at the peak of the Domain level. But in the three forbidden zones? Forget peak treasures, they even have supreme treasures! Of course—"
He changed the subject abruptly, "Don't even think about the deepest part! I wouldn't dare venture there myself! You may be good at protecting yourself, but if it's your first time entering the Cosmic Sea, just stay in the outer realms!"
"Only by honing your skills in that place can you improve your abilities!"
The Chaos City Lord's eyes gleamed with fervent light, "You can only improve rapidly by sparring with many old guys who survived before the Great Cataclysm!"
Lin Hao nodded repeatedly as he listened.
The Great Cataclysm—the birth, evolution, operation, decline, and eventual collapse of the primordial universe.
This entire cycle is called a reincarnation.
After destruction, the world was reborn, new life and new races emerged... and another era of reincarnation began!
Only by attaching themselves to the miniature universe of the strongest being in the universe can veteran powerhouses survive the catastrophe.
For example, the human race now only has the initial universe and the small universe of the Giant Axe Founder. If no new strongest being emerges in the new universe, when this cycle ends, humanity can only select some elites to fill the two small universes to keep the flame burning.
The small universe has a limited source; it can't contain everyone!
leftover?
May everything vanish into thin air and be reborn alongside the primordial universe!
"Go back and get ready,"
The Lord of Chaos City stood up. "My true form is currently on my way back from the Cosmic Sea. Once I return, I will personally escort you there!"
"no problem!"
Lin Hao responded readily.
The true form of the Lord of Chaos City?
That was the strongest of his three clones!
"The sea of space..."
Lin Hao silently repeated these three words; he was quite looking forward to it.
Now that the Machine Race and the Demon Race have completely behaved themselves, Her Majesty the Zerg Queen is not willing to let herself have any easy gains.
Shouldn't we try our luck in the Cosmic Sea?
Otherwise, I'd really be living a life of debauchery!
Luo Feng truly lives up to his reputation as the chosen one; his pace of pursuit is a bit too fast. I still need to work hard to maintain my lead!
……
Deep in the cosmic ocean.
The chaotic air currents surged and rolled.
Within it, a tiny, isolated universe hangs suspended in mid-air.
Inside the universe.
"The plan has backfired!"
