Chapter 480

“The Myriad Realms!”

As the Lord of Chaos raised his cup to invite Lu Qing to drink, he asked: “I hear you’ve been spending your recent time within the Nine You Void of the Ancestral Mystery Realm—what urgent matter did you need?”

“I indeed had some matters to consult the Lord of Nine You .”

Lu Qing quickly smiled and said: “But the matter is now settled—I’ll return after finishing my banquet with the Lord of Nine You .”

“I see,” said the Lord of Chaos, nodding slightly.

He did not press further on why Lu Qing had sought out the Lord of Nine You ; every Universe Lord had his own secrets, and if Lu Qing wished to speak of it, he would do so in time.

After a long, joyous drinking session, Lu Qing took his leave from the Lord of Chaos’s estate.

…

In the hall’s throne, Lu Qing had departed, yet the Lord of Chaos remained seated.

“The Myriad Realms’ strength is truly growing ever stronger!”

Watching Lu Qing’s retreating figure, the Lord of Chaos thought inwardly: “With all his combined abilities, the Myriad Realms’ value to our human race may now rival that of the Axe Founder!”

In the Lord of Chaos’s eyes, the power of the Universe’s Supreme Beings could never be matched by any Universe Lord—the Axe Founder’s strength far surpassed Lu Qing’s.

Yet as leader of the human race, the Axe Founder bore immense pressure; whether in the Primitive Universe or the Sea of Universes, he could not roam freely like solitary Supreme Beings unburdened by a race’s needs.

Moreover, even Supreme Beings could perish—especially the Axe Founder, who currently lacked a Supreme Treasure for protection, making him even more cautious about venturing into dangerous regions.

But Lu Qing was different!

First, Lu Qing’s current strength ranked among the very top beneath a Supreme Being—he fully had the qualification to venture into dangerous regions.

Second, Lu Qing possessed the ability to create avatars, coupled with an infinite reservoir of divine power spanning over ten billion kilometers; even if he perished, he could rapidly spawn a new avatar, losing only some Supreme Treasures.

Though the lost Supreme Treasures were precious, so too were the resources needed to regenerate a divine body.

Take the Lord of Chaos himself—if his avatar perished, the resources required to reform a new one within a short time would be a massive burden on the entire human race.

That is precisely why the Lord of Nine You ’s Nine You Sea rivals a Supreme Treasure.

The Nine You Sea sits there immovably—even the Insect Empress, wielding a Palace-class Supreme Treasure, could do nothing to it.

Though Lu Qing’s Infinite Divine Sea avatar currently pales in comparison to the Lord of Nine You ’s Nine You Sea, if what Lu Qing claimed was true, it clearly held that potential.

Since the Original Ancestor was suppressed by the Primitive Universe’s primordial will, the Lord of Chaos had carried heavy pressure.

Now, with Lu Qing’s rise, the Lord of Chaos finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

…

Six months later, in the human territory, within the Primitive Mystery Realm, a hidden region of the Mysterious Star System.

The previously silent void now held a towering palace, and on the wall of its grand hall stood a magnificent carving, ten thousand kilometers tall.

This majestic palace had been built by the Virtual Universe Corporation at full capacity over the past half-year for Lu Qing; the exquisite carving was the entrance to a fixed Divine Realm teleportation channel.

The other end of the Divine Realm channel connected to Lu Qing’s Divine Realm.

Lu Qing constructed this fixed teleportation channel to transfer his Infinite Divine Sea avatar out of his Divine Realm.

Inside the palace now stood three figures: Lu Qing, the Lord of Chaos, and the Ice Peak Lord.

Lu Qing had originally discussed this with the Lord of Chaos; their presence here was natural. The Ice Peak Lord had come purely out of curiosity after hearing Lu Qing’s account.

“Master, Uncle!”

Lu Qing looked at the Ice Peak Lord and the Lord of Chaos, then smiled: “The fixed Divine Realm teleportation channel is complete—everything is ready. Let’s go!”

With that, Lu Qing stepped forward into the wall ahead.

“Let’s go!”

The Ice Peak Lord and the Lord of Chaos exchanged glances, then followed Lu Qing into the wall ahead.

…

Within Lu Qing’s vast Divine Realm.

Boom!

Though its diameter had shrunk tenfold and its volume a thousandfold, the aura radiating from the Infinite Divine Sea avatar had grown even stronger.

The Infinite Divine Sea surged violently, and above it floated a luminous screen, ten thousand kilometers in diameter.

Whoosh!

Three figures soon emerged from the screen: Lu Qing, the Ice Peak Lord, and the Lord of Chaos.

“Qing Shan, this is your Divine Realm?”

The Ice Peak Lord surveyed the surroundings and sighed: “It appears to have reached its maximum expansion—once you take the final step, your Divine Realm will evolve into a Small Universe!”

At this moment, the Ice Peak Lord had absolute confidence in his disciple.

Sometimes he even felt Lu Qing might have a better chance than the Lord of Chaos of breaking through to the Supreme Being realm.

After all, the Ice Peak Lord had witnessed firsthand how astonishing Lu Qing’s journey had been.

Though Lu Qing’s early performance—before Immortality and during the Immortal stage—fell far short of the Lord of Chaos’s at the same age, by the Sovereign stage he had already matched the Lord of Chaos, and by the Universe Lord stage, his cultivation speed had even surpassed him.

On the other side, upon hearing the Ice Peak Lord’s words, Lu Qing inwardly shook his head.

In truth, his Divine Realm had not yet expanded to its limit.

Though his life gene level had reached ten thousandfold, it had been boosted through vast resources and still fell short of the perfect gene level.

Once he one day broke through to the perfect gene level of 10,081—or even surpassed it—his Divine Realm would surely continue expanding.

“Your Infinite Divine Sea avatar’s divine body is truly immense!”

Beside him, the Lord of Chaos gazed down at the Infinite Divine Sea and couldn’t help but exclaim: “With this avatar, your divine power will be inexhaustible!”

“Indeed!”

Hearing this, the Ice Peak Lord could not help but sigh: “Too bad Universe Lords cannot share divine power—if so, Lu Qing’s vast reserves could supply every single Universe Lord in our human race!”

“Brother, you’re joking!”

Upon hearing the Ice Peak Lord’s idea, the Lord of Chaos chuckled: “If that were true, wouldn’t the Lord of Nine You ’s divine body be enough to supply every Universe Lord in the entire Primitive Universe?”

Hearing their banter, Lu Qing couldn’t help but smile.

Divine power was the foundation of every strong being, containing the life imprint of its wielder; some life forms lacked souls entirely, yet could not exist without a divine power imprint.

Each strong being’s divine power was unique—though special treasures might disguise it, its essence could never be altered.

Thus, even if Lu Qing wished to use his Infinite Divine Sea avatar’s divine power to replenish other Universe Lords in the human race, it was utterly impossible!

“Master, Uncle!”

After a few more casual words, Lu Qing smiled: “I’m beginning now!”

No sooner had he spoken than he gazed down at the Infinite Divine Sea avatar, and with a thought, he began directing the flow of infinite divine power.

A stream of divine seawater surged upward like a dragon, flying straight into the ten-thousand-kilometer-diameter luminous screen above.

Boom!

Along this screen, Lu Qing’s raging divine power began pouring uncontrollably toward the other end of the fixed Divine Realm teleportation channel.
