As Luo Feng structured his universe, within the vast Sea of Universes, the World Beast Morosa sped forward.
"Damnation."
Both heads of the World Beast Morosa were contorted with ferocity and rage. "To think that those fools I once despised, whose strength I vastly underestimated, are now all coming after me. They've left me with no space to survive in my lair. Otherwise, with my power, climbing back to the third tier wouldn't be difficult."
Rage boiled within it.
Though it had desperately consumed another World Beast to reach the second tier, the message transmitted at the other beast's death caused the World Beast Morosa to be universally shunned, like a rat crossing the street. When it stood at its peak, it naturally slaughtered and tormented other World Beasts; now that it was weakened, those beasts naturally sought vengeance.
"I must return to the Sea of Universes," Morosa shook its head. "I cannot stay in the lair. Then, let me hurry forward and let that Galaxy Lord Luo Feng know the consequences of offending me."
It did not possess absolute certainty of revenge against Luo Feng.
However...
It had no other choice!
The inherent desire for destruction gave it the courage of a 'moth flying into a flame.' Even if it couldn't kill Luo Feng, it had to thoroughly vex him.
And finally, it would transmit all information back to the Gloomy Land, plunging Luo Feng into true catastrophe.
"Swish!" "Swish!" The World Beast teleported across vast distances repeatedly, quickly arriving outside a Miniature Universe.
"Roar~~"
Black mist once again coiled around Morosa's body, and winding rays of light extended outward, stretching toward the Miniature Universe. It did not consume anything, merely maintaining this posture.
A moment later.
A massive ship materialized out of thin air. A figure flew out from the vessel—it was none other than the imposing and majestic Nine-Headed Demon Master. Looking at the World Beast Morosa before him, a trace of regret flickered through the Nine-Headed Demon Master’s mind. He was a True God who had always practiced extreme restraint and patience, only gradually revealing his power since the appearance of the Jin World, earning him a spot among the Eight Heroes of the Sea of Universes.
Long before Hong or the Pupil Demon God made their moves, he had already dispatched his Universe Masters to investigate the World Beast Lair.
Every scout sent invariably perished.
Yet, the beings he dispatched were energy lifeforms, ensuring their souls at least would not be annihilated... It was thanks to their reconnaissance that the Nine-Headed Demon Master already knew just how terrifying the 'quantity' of World Beasts within the lair was. Even the portion discovered by his Universe Masters was described as overwhelming, covering the heavens and earth.
This sheer number filled him with dread!
But he still held onto hope—hope that the World Beasts weren't overwhelmingly strong. Yet, a single World Beast had driven all races in the Sea of Universes to the brink of collapse.
Finally...
The Nine-Headed Demon Master secretly contacted the World Beast Morosa and ultimately defected to the World Beast faction! Just like Hao Lei Star Lord, Qiu Yan Ancestor God, and Zhen Jia King... Upon pledging allegiance, the Nine-Headed Demon Master instantly regretted it. He discovered that after joining, he became an absolute servant, bound to obey the 'World Beast.' Furthermore, the Nine-Headed Demon Master vaguely sensed more trouble brewing; when the 'World Beast King' eventually emerged, those who had allied with the World Beasts would still face tragedy.
Regret.
But regret was too late!
"I intended to survive this great calamity by siding with the World Beasts. I originate from the Second Reincarnation Era and possess ancient civilization inheritances from the Jin World. I had a real chance of transcending reincarnation before the final deadline of the three reincarnation eras," the Nine-Headed Demon Master thought secretly. "But siding with the World Beasts resulted in this outcome..."
"Damn primordial will, why didn't you speak up sooner?" The Nine-Headed Demon Master was filled with both regret and anger.
It was precisely because of this spy that the World Beast Morosa could so easily evade Luo Feng's initial location.
"Nine-Heads," Morosa stared at the Nine-Headed Demon Master.
"Great King," the Nine-Headed Demon Master replied respectfully. Once defected, he had to address any World Beast as 'King'!
Morosa nodded. "Tell me, what exactly has happened in the Sea of Universes during this time, and what is the current status of that Galaxy Lord Luo Feng?"
The Nine-Headed Demon Master hurriedly reported, "Great King! The races of the Sea of Universes have remained relatively calm, only the Galaxy Lord has already become a True God."
"Became a True God!" Morosa was startled, receiving a huge shock. It was still a Universe Master who had beaten him from the third tier back to the first, and now he was merely second tier, while Luo Feng had become a True God. If they fought seriously now... the result was obvious—it would be complete annihilation.
"So fast!" Morosa exclaimed in alarm.
"Not fast," the Nine-Headed Demon Master shook his head. "The Galaxy Lord is the strongest being in our Sea of Universes. His talent is extraordinary, yet it took him ten trillion epochs to finally break through... It was slow. After all, even his disciple has become a True God. There is one more crucial detail I must inform the King... During the Galaxy Lord's breakthrough, he once..."
The Nine-Headed Demon Master disclosed everything.
The billions of races in the Primal Universe knelt in tribute and celebration. The diameter of the Miniature Universe was one billion light-years—all of it was relayed.
Hearing this, Morosa's expression grew increasingly grim.
"The Galaxy Lord's Miniature Universe has just entered the Sea of Universes," the Nine-Headed Demon Master continued. "He should currently be engaged in structuring his Miniature Universe. Even after it fully solidifies, he still needs to evolve the primal chaos... All of this takes time. Moreover, given the immensity of his Miniature Universe, it will likely take longer than a normal True God. I estimate he won't be able to emerge for at least one or two months."
The World Beast Morosa was overjoyed upon hearing this.
He couldn't come out?
A wave of delight washed over Morosa, sparking further thoughts: "Yes, after becoming a True God, Luo Feng will have no avatars, only his true body... He probably won't dare patrol the Sea of Universes then, as he must guard his Miniature Universe and protect his Human race." "However, he might risk coming out to patrol. After all, he has many True Gods in the Hong Alliance; a group of True Gods moving together could still hinder me."
Morosa pondered continuously.
Then, it broke into a wide, grinning laugh.
Regardless of the specifics, at least for these next one or two months, Luo Feng would be confined!
"Hahahaha..." Morosa roared with laughter.
"Nine-Heads, you have done excellently," Morosa praised.
The Nine-Headed Demon Master lowered his head in submission.
Morosa then laughed heartily and instantly teleported away. The Nine-Headed Demon Master raised his head; the expressions on all nine of his heads were wretched—every step was a mistake, with no chance of turning back now.
Inside Luo Feng's own Miniature Universe.
"Ten Thousand Heavens!"
Ten thousand planar spaces were being born throughout the entire Miniature Universe. These ten thousand planar spaces varied in size, and their structures were all distinct. Faintly, every single planar space seemed connected to the others. The outermost perimeter of every plane was encircled by chaotic airflow, resembling a vortex.
The Ten Thousand Heavens were all spinning and continuously perfecting themselves internally.
Simultaneously!
Within a stretch of chaos in the universe's primal source, ten thousand rotating planets began to appear. These ten thousand planets corresponded to the Ten Thousand Heavens. It was as if... the structure within the Miniature Universe was being 'miniaturized' within the primal source space. Yet, Luo Feng himself understood that the primal source space was actually the guide for everything external.
After a long while.
"The Ten Thousand Heavens are complete," Luo Feng's eyes shone brightly. "Now for the most crucial step!"
"The Beginning of the One (Yi Yuan Zhi Shi)!"
Luo Feng's will enveloped the entire Miniature Universe.
Instantly, the ten thousand planar spaces began to rotate violently. Each space was subtly linked to the others, connections invisible to the naked eye. But in the 'Universe Primal Source,' the 'ten thousand planets' corresponding to the Ten Thousand Heavens emitted streams of golden light, connecting with each other to form an incredibly intricate, massive network, much like an exceedingly complex Go board.
"Form!"
Luo Feng's will roared.
The ten thousand planets within the Universe Primal Source erupted with dazzling light. The countless golden lines constituting the ultra-complex Go array also pulsed with energy, forming a mass of nothingness at the very core.
"Rumble!" The heavens collapsed and the earth cracked.
The ten thousand planar spaces in the Miniature Universe rotated against each other; the vortexes expanded, and some even collided. One by one, the planar spaces appeared to separate randomly, but as they all began to spin... the entire ten thousand planar spaces started revolving, just as the Earth orbits the Sun. These ten thousand spaces began revolving around a central point.
It was agonizingly difficult.
It was like grinding grain; the initial pull was the hardest. As the entire set of ten thousand planar spaces began to slowly orbit the absolute center core, Luo Feng's will nearly collapsed. Finally, everything began to rotate. As the rotation gradually accelerated... some planar spaces began to collide, and some fragile ones even started showing cracks.
"Bang!" One planar space actually collapsed completely.
Luo Feng remained expressionless.
He continued to control everything...
"Form for me!!!" Luo Feng's will roared once more.
Boom!
The Miniature Universe emitted a thunderous sound that could even be heard outside of it. Luo Feng's Universe Primal Source also boomed. In the central position among nearly ten thousand planar spaces, a swirling vortex appeared, like a bottomless black hole vortex. At the very center of this bottomless vortex was the 'Universe Primal Source.'
At the same moment, within the nearly ten thousand planets in the Universe Primal Source, a void vortex also materialized.
"It's done," Luo Feng couldn't help but show joy.
Everything stabilized.
The void vortex served as the center, drawing the nearly ten thousand planar spaces into continuous rotation. During this rotation, a new planar space surprisingly began to form. It was followed by continuous formation, and in just a moment, the count returned to ten thousand planar spaces.
In the Universe Primal Source, the ten thousand planets also returned to their original count.
Luo Feng was elated: "The Beginning of the One is complete. Everything originates from the Yuan (One), capable of giving birth to all things, infinite and endless."
The central void formed by the Ten Thousand Heavens was the 'Yuan.'
From this Yuan, his Miniature Universe could be filled with infinite possibilities; even if the ten thousand planar spaces shattered, they could be reborn again.
"The Beginning of the One..." Luo Feng looked at his Universe Primal Source. Ten thousand brilliant planets orbited the central void. This central void was the very core point of the entire 'Universe Primal Source.' The source was the Beginning of the One, and from that void, divine power seawater began to bubble up like a fountainhead in torrents.
The massive streams of chaotic airflow outside Luo Feng's Miniature Universe were being madly sucked in.
Whoosh, whoosh~
The endless chaotic airflow began to swirl around Luo Feng's Miniature Universe, forming a giant chaotic vortex. Massive amounts of chaotic airflow were constantly being devoured and converted into divine power. All Miniature Universes possessed the ability to convert chaos into divine power, but Luo Feng's 'Beginning of the One' structure pushed this conversion capability to an unbelievable degree.
Tomato only hopes... that Swallowed Star can end with the number one spot in monthly tickets!
