Chapter 475: Journey and Return to Consumption

After the women of Nüwa and the Wu Jian faction swore their life oaths, they naturally began handling the aftermath of the catastrophe.

Due to Lu Qingshan’s appearance, the losses suffered by the Nüwa and Wu Jian factions during this catastrophe were far fewer than in the original timeline.

Even so, many powerful beings perished in this catastrophe.

Numerous True Gods and Dao Ancestors fell, let alone the Heavenly Gods and True Immortals, and as for Heavenly Immortals and Scatter Immortals, their numbers were beyond count.

With so many powerful beings perished, the burden on the Three Realms naturally lessened greatly.

Yet if cultivation were not restricted, over time the number of powerful beings within the Three Realms would continue to grow.

Therefore, in the future, cultivation within the Three Realms must never again be as easy as before—more perilous trials must be established.

In addition, the Heavenly Court and Underworld within the Three Realms were shattered in this catastrophe, so these great beings must now reestablish the Heavenly Court, rebuild the Yin and Yang Courts, and restore the Six Paths of Reincarnation to return the Three Realms to normal.

Yet these matters certainly did not require Lu Qingshan’s hands—he exchanged the treasures he obtained from the World Prison for various cultivation methods from both factions, then set out toward the Chaos.

Although he came to this Manghuang Ji world to help Beishan Baiwei resolve the crisis of the Three Realms, now that the crisis was over, he naturally intended to explore the Chaos.

After all, to the vast Manghuang Ji world, even the expansive Three Realms were merely a slightly unusual Chaos realm.

Within the boundless Chaos universe, such Chaos realms were as countless as the sands of the Ganges.

Beyond the Three Realms lay even vaster worlds and even more terrifying powerful beings.

World Realm, Life-Death Dao Lords, Eternal Emperor Lords, Supreme Beings—and ultimately, the Chaos Universe’s Master…

Powerful beings far stronger than Lu Qingshan were everywhere in the Chaos Universe; now that he had the chance, he naturally intended to see them for himself.

Thus, after greeting Beishan Baiwei, Lu Qingshan directly boarded a spacecraft he had acquired from the World Prison and departed the Three Realms without hesitation.

Upon sensing Lu Qingshan’s departure, the many powerful beings within the Three Realms all exhaled in relief.

Although Lu Qingshan had shown no overt hostility toward the Three Realms, he was still a Chaos outsider with the power to annihilate the Three Realms—of course, the powerful beings within the Three Realms had been deeply concerned.

Now that Lu Qingshan had directly left the Three Realms, they naturally felt somewhat more at ease.

Especially Hou Yi, who cultivated soul force and had unraveled the “God Annihilation” scripture, and the Bodhi Dao Ancestor, who had received a Soul-Stealing Flower from Shennong, were especially relieved that they had not fully unleashed their desperate techniques, for they did not know whether those desperate methods could pose a fatal threat to a terrifying powerhouse like Lu Qingshan.

On the other side, Lu Qingshan piloted his spacecraft, repeatedly traversing the void, advancing steadily.

After piloting the spacecraft through the Chaos for about half a month, Lu Qingshan finally arrived at the “Vortex Space” recorded on the star chart.

As for the star chart, it was naturally obtained from the Nüwa and Wu Jian factions.

After all, many Chaos outsiders had previously entered the Three Realms, and these star charts were acquired from them.

“This vortex passage looks almost like a black hole!”

Gazing at the massive vortex ahead, Lu Qingshan thought to himself.

The vortex passage was currently tearing at the surrounding space, creating an oppressive sensation.

“This vortex passage is said to be dangerous, but to me, it makes little difference!”

With a thought, Lu Qingshan immediately steered his spacecraft into the vortex ahead.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The vortex passage emitted an unimaginably terrifying suction force, swiftly swallowing the spacecraft.

Lu Qingshan, however, guided the spacecraft along this suction force while continuously neutralizing its pressure.

Under Lu Qingshan’s full control, though the space within the vortex was highly unstable, it caused him no trouble whatsoever.

The vortex passage appeared as a giant tubular vortex, occasionally revealing massive spatial fissures—some pale white, others dark.

According to the data gathered by the Three Realms from numerous Chaos outsiders, three scenarios typically occurred when passing through this vortex passage.

The first was the most normal: successfully reaching the other end—the Damo Region.

The second was being swallowed by sudden spatial fissures and transported to an unknown Chaos territory—this was likely what Nüwa had experienced.

The third was being directly sent to some absolute dead zone or death realm.

Yet for Lu Qingshan, none of these three scenarios posed any threat.

Being transported to the Damo Region was naturally the best outcome;

but being sent to an unknown territory was also no issue for him;

and if sent to a death realm, he could simply return to the Star Tunshi Universe.

Thus, Lu Qingshan piloted his spacecraft, constantly dodging sudden spatial fissures, and after several days of flight, finally burst out of a vast Chaos vortex.

“Is this the Damo Region?”

Lu Qingshan observed the Chaos void beyond his spacecraft, then silently sighed: “My luck seems decent—I actually made it to the Damo Region successfully!”

After all, passing through the vortex passage did not guarantee safety based on strength alone—otherwise, Nüwa, who had reached the World God level, would never have been transported to a distant, unfamiliar territory.

After briefly sensing the surrounding void, Lu Qingshan quickly steered his spacecraft toward the nearest “Space-Time Transport Array.”

The Chaos void was simply too vast—if he traveled by flight alone, even endless eons would not suffice to explore the entire Damo Region, let alone the even vaster Chaos worlds beyond.

Thus, the Chaos world contained countless Space-Time Transport Arrays!

These arrays functioned similarly to the space wormholes in the Universe Sea, allowing rapid transit to incredibly distant regions.

Yet the space wormholes in the Universe Sea were naturally formed, while the Space-Time Transport Arrays in the Manghuang Ji world were constructed by powerful beings—making them somewhat similar to the fixed Divine Nation transport channels in the Star Tunshi Universe.

While piloting his spacecraft through the Chaos, Lu Qingshan witnessed various scenes unique to this realm—such as stars unlike those in the Star Tunshi Universe, and countless Chaos worlds…

Along the journey, Lu Qingshan occasionally entered a Chaos world to explore.

With his current strength, even if he encountered a World Realm being, he could still escape—so he faced little danger within these Chaos worlds.

Yet these Chaos worlds were not as isolated as the Three Realms; most were open worlds, and thus less hostile toward outsiders than the Three Realms had been.

Of course, along the way, Lu Qingshan did encounter one World Realm adept.

Unlike ordinary Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals who fled instantly upon sensing a World Realm being’s presence, Lu Qingshan, upon detecting the powerful soul Bodong sweeping toward him, directly advanced toward it.

The World Realm adept, upon seeing Lu Qingshan approach, was naturally astonished.

For although Lu Qingshan’s aura was peculiar, it still differed from that of a World Realm being—he could only be classified as an Ancestral God level.

Lu Qingshan then openly requested the World Realm adept to instruct him.

Budebushuo , Lu Qingshan’s luck was still quite good—the World Realm adept had a decent temperament and soon accepted Lu Qingshan’s challenge, engaging him in battle.

Unfortunately, even after unleashing all his techniques—including the method of burning divine power—Lu Qingshan was still no match for the World Realm adept.

After battling Lu Qingshan, the World Realm adept was deeply astonished by his strength and even wished to take him as a disciple—though Lu Qingshan declined.
