Chapter 322: Invitation

On the Supreme Star.

As the endless cosmic origin dissipated, Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes.

The world before him had changed.

Even though he had not yet crossed the threshold of the space-time rules, he could still manipulate space-time with ease; compared to his past micro space-time domain, the scope of his current space-time domain was countless times larger.

As long as he wished, the space-time within the entire Void Sea would fall under his control.

This was the first ability of the Chaos God—a space-time domain comparable to that of a Transcendent.

At the same time, his life form evolved from a Star God of the Void Lord level to a Chaos God of the Void Lord level.

The elevation of his divine office after evolution was sufficient to raise his supreme secret arts and other aspects of strength by a major tier.

Furthermore, the power of the cosmic origin, which had previously been hidden deep within the universe and utterly unusable, now moved with his will; he could even feel the fluctuations of the cosmic will.

In other words, as long as Lin Qing activated his divine core, he could receive the support of the cosmic origin at all times just like a Transcendent; no matter where he was, he was equivalent to the Lord of a home world, with his strength rising another major tier!

It could be said that the Chaos God was a Transcendent in another sense.

The sublimation of the divine office and the support of the cosmic origin amounted to a total of two major tier improvements!

Even if one's original strength was only at the twenty-first layer of the Yu Xingyuan, after achieving the status of Chaos God, they could reach the twenty-third layer of the Yu Xingyuan!

It was just...

The Chaos God could not break the upper limit of the universe's rules either; at most, they could only exert strength equivalent to the threshold of the twenty-fourth layer of the Yu Xingyuan.

Breaking the universe's limit—this was something only Transcendent experts who mastered the space-time rules had accomplished.

Unless the Chaos God ascended to the position of a Main God could they ignore this restriction, while also paying a price to obtain even greater support from the cosmic origin!

As long as a Main God was willing to pay the price, even a Transcendent could be slain by a Main God!

However, for Lin Qing, his ability to break the universe's limit relied entirely on his innate supreme treasure of the universe; therefore, after his strength had exploded, he naturally had no need to worry about the restrictions of the universe's rules.

"Pity, if I had been a Chaos God before, I could have easily killed the Ancestor of the Pantheon."

Lin Qing sighed regretfully in his heart.

Assuming the Yu Xingyuan had more than twenty-four layers, originally, even with the support of the world's origin in his home world, his strength would only be at the upper-middle level of the twenty-fifth layer of the Yu Xingyuan; but with the help of the Great Cataclysm of the Illusory World, cooperating with the Ancestor of the Tianyuan Seat, he had already posed a life-threatening danger to the Ancestor of the Pantheon.

Now, although he was not a World Lord, he constantly had the support of the cosmic origin, plus the life-form elevation brought by the Chaos God, making his strength actually a major tier stronger than it was at that time!

Killing that Ancestor of the Pantheon would naturally be even easier and simpler.

But since a contract had been signed, unless the Ancestor of the Pantheon actively offended him or acted against the Shanhai Realm, he dared not kill the Ancestor of the Pantheon.

The suppression of consciousness by the Second Universe Network was something even a Main God could resist with the help of the cosmic origin, but other avatars could not withstand it.

Moreover, besides the endless chaos and the small universes of alien races, the Level Three civilizations of the Human Race also possessed the Second Universe Network!

"Enough, in any case, they pose no threat to me anymore..."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly and did not take it to heart.

He turned his attention to observing the Chaos God Heart that had merged into the depths of his soul; this Chaos God Heart, woven by the cosmic will, was the key to achieving the status of a Main God.

Once one transcended the universe, or was killed by someone, the Chaos God Heart would also dissipate.

If killed in a small universe where a Level Three civilization existed, this Chaos God Heart would be preserved by the rules of the small universe; any other Star God meeting the requirements who obtained this Chaos God Heart could instantly ascend to become a Chaos God.

"Chaos God Heart..."

Lin Qing pondered, "Wait until the avatar of the Void True bloodline becomes me, then inherit this Chaos God Heart and become a Main God in my place."

Decades of thousands of years ago, he had already found a suitable candidate to inherit the bloodline of the Chaos creature 'Void True'.

Fortunately, he had a space-time domain that allowed him to enter and exit various civilizations at will; after searching the Void Sea's eight thousand-plus Level Two civilizations three times, he finally found a suitable one in the Rilo Civilization.

It was truly strange.

The creature suitable for inheriting the bloodline of the Chaos creature 'Void True' was not of the Human Race, but a domesticated alien beast creature.

That alien beast creature was a mutated product of improved genes, created by the hybridization of the 'Qijiao Light Dragon', a terrifying life form naturally born as a Void Lord in the Void Sea, and a 'Mist Python' that had artificially evolved to the Lord level, catalyzed by a Void Divine Office holder in the field of life genes in the Rilo Civilization known as 'Life Father God'.

This alien beast creature was also a life form that could evolve into a Lord-level being upon reaching maturity; however, before it reached maturity, it was discovered by Lin Qing through repeated searches.

Although that Void Divine Office holder was unwilling to hand over this mutated creature, he did not dare to obstruct Lin Qing.

Lin Qing was also too lazy to forcibly seize it; he promised that as long as the other party could gather the materials, he would freely help forge a Chaos Divine Artifact.

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately joyfully agreed.

A mutated creature naturally born as a Void Lord was, after all, nothing special; even if it was somewhat unique, its combat power was negligible, and its greatest value lay in gene research or other utilities.

Afterwards, Lin Qing transformed this alien beast into his own avatar.

Although non-Human Race beings could not merge bodies, after inheriting the Void True bloodline, this alien beast also possessed the ability of perfect replication; although it was only a single chance, it was sufficient to achieve a state of absolute perfection.

"After returning to the Shanhai Realm, I can have the Void True avatar replicate me."

Lin Qing was filled with anticipation in his heart, but there was no rush for now; he still needed to go meet those six Main Gods.

He took a step, space-time twisted, and he instantly appeared outside the Supreme Star, standing before the six figures emitting the aura of the cosmic origin.

"Six Main Gods."

Lin Qing smiled as he looked at these six people, finally turning his gaze to the Life System Main God, and said, "Thank you previously, Senior Mirror. After I finish my private affairs and reincarnate into another civilization, I will come to inherit the position of the Life System Main God."

The Life System Main God 'Mirror' smiled and said, "No rush; this epoch still has tens of millions of years before the Great Cataclysm arrives, which is enough."

A Chaos God or a Transcendent expert could determine the approximate time of the Great Cataclysm's arrival based on the accumulated cosmic origin in the Void Sea.

She had served in the position of Main God for countless years; although she had little realization regarding the space-time rules, she had become familiar with them to the extreme.

Once one crossed the threshold of the space-time rules, one could transcend the universe.

It was merely the threshold; naturally, she was fully confident that perhaps at the same time she shed the position of Main God, she could directly transcend.

Having been bound for countless years, now on the verge of breaking free, her mood was extremely good.

Moreover, she understood that Lin Qing had a home world and relatives and friends, and could not possibly ascend to the position of Main God just like that, leaving his home world and loved ones to be destroyed by the Yu Xingyuan.

Reincarnating into another civilization to transfer the calamity was also quite normal. "With you, Lin Qing, coming to succeed me, I can finally say I have endured to the end."

The Order System Main God beside her sighed, "This old man has sat in the position of Order System Main God for who knows how many thousands or even tens of thousands of epochs; even though he has sent off five Life System Main Gods, he still has not waited for a single Order System Chaos God. Alas..."

"Old Ti, this is unavoidable," the Chaos System Primordial God beside him chuckled softly. "Now that the universe is invaded by the Yu Xingyuan, it leans overall toward chaos and destruction. Order no longer exists, so naturally, geniuses of the Order System have become far fewer."

"That is true. Old Ti, you have witnessed more than ten Chaos System Primordial Gods appearing in this Void Sea, haven't you?"

"In our Void Sea, Old Ti has lived the longest. He has witnessed the fall of one transcendent after another, and has even seen at least a hundred Holy Lands rise and fall."

The Primordial Gods, one by one, also seemed to rarely converse so freely, chatting casually.

"Lin Qing, I heard you killed the Four Emperors and Seven Marshals?"

The Chaos System Primordial God said with a smile, "In the next era, don't kill so ruthlessly. If the Void Sea isn't chaotic enough, I don't know how long I'll have to wait for a successor. I still want to reach the Third-Level Civilization sooner."

"Perhaps Old Ti hasn't waited for a successor for so long because the Void Sea is too chaotic?" Lin Qing said casually.

He hadn't expected this Chaos System Primordial God to be quite friendly toward him; perhaps it was because his performance in the Chaos God trial had been too outstanding?

In the simulated future, this Chaos System Primordial God had mocked him several times with great anger because he had killed too many pirates.

"I heard the Universal Star Patrol Alliance is not as powerful as before."

The Nature System Primordial God beside him shook his head and sighed, "I heard the Universal Star Patrol Alliance was also created by a Third-Level Civilization, but now I don't know what has happened to it."

"Because the great existence who founded the Universal Star Patrol Alliance has perished."

At this moment, a low voice sounded.

Several Primordial Gods could not help but turn their heads in surprise to look.

In the past, when they chatted, the Destruction System Primordial God rarely communicated with them, even too lazy to come meet, being very cold and arrogant. Now, he actually spoke up on his own initiative?

Lin Qing was also somewhat surprised.

Although the time he served as a Primordial God in the simulated future was not long, he also knew of this Destruction System Primordial God's coldness, or rather, his sheer laziness to pay attention to Primordial Gods of this Void Sea.

Lin Qing had once sought the Destruction System Primordial God's mercy and help, requesting this Primordial God from the Third-Level Civilization to save the Void Sea and delay the Great Nirvana.

But the other party was simply too lazy to care, saying only one sentence: "What do the beings of the Void Sea have to do with me?"

One could imagine so.

As a Primordial God descended from a Third-Level Civilization, he only used the position of Primordial God to comprehend the rules of space-time and the origin of the universe; how could he care whether a group of irrelevant beings lived long or short?

The Great Nirvana will eventually arrive; the Third-Level Civilization can only help delay it.

"I heard you, Lin Qing, killed the Child of Chaos who came from the Immortal Realm?"

The Destruction System Primordial God slowly revealed a faint smile toward Lin Qing and murmured in praise, "Even in my homeland, the Realm of Kings, talents like you are extremely rare. You are truly remarkable and possess great fortune."

"The Destruction Primordial God is from the Realm of Kings?" Lin Qing learned this for the first time.

"Correct."

The Destruction System Primordial God nodded with a smile, "I am 'Cang Jian Hou' of the Ice-Sealed Empire in the Realm of Kings. My master is Dongyan Di Jun, and Your Majesty the Ice Emperor is my grandmaster."

"Oh?" Lin Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Your Majesty the Ice Emperor?"

In the Realm of Kings ruins, he had already tried the trial set by Your Majesty the Ice Emperor and received exceptionally generous rewards, including a set-type Chaos Divine Artifact and a rare treasure that aided in comprehending the Dao.

"In our Realm of Kings, those who can establish a domain and have the qualification to be called Emperor or King are all great ultimate existences."

The Destruction System Primordial God said, "My Ice-Sealed Empire has two ultimate existences, my master and Your Majesty the Ice Emperor. Among the domains of the Realm of Kings, it is considered a powerful nation, second only to the Three Divine Kingdoms. Lin Qing, if you are interested, you can join my Ice-Sealed Empire in the future."

"I haven't transcended yet; are you inviting me now?" Lin Qing could not help but say.

He felt some emotion in his heart; in the simulated future, this Destruction System Primordial God's attitude had been so cold as to be nearly ignoring him.

And now, he was so enthusiastically inviting him on his own initiative?

"With your talent and potential, Lin Qing, you can easily obtain a title of nobility in any domain of my Realm of Kings in the future; it is only a matter of time."

The Destruction System Primordial God said sincerely, "If you are willing, when you need to get rid of the position of Primordial God in the future, my Ice-Sealed Empire can also dispatch a Chaos God to replace your position as Primordial God and help you break free from the bonds."

Hearing this, the eyes of the several Primordial Gods beside him turned somewhat red.

They knew that even in the Third-Level Civilization, Chaos Gods capable of inheriting the position of Primordial God were extremely rare, so they could only hope for a Chaos God to be born locally.

This meant waiting for an extremely long time.

Like the Order System Primordial God, it had been thousands or even tens of thousands of eras, yet they still had not waited for a new Order System Chaos God to be born in the Void Sea.

"Oh?"

Lin Qing was also somewhat surprised, but he still shook his head calmly, "I know nothing yet. Let me consider it further."

This Destruction System Primordial God did not know that he already possessed the Reincarnation Token granted by the Light King; he could directly reincarnate into the Realm of Kings, and he also had the Xu Zhen Clone to ascend to the position of Primordial God for him, so he had no need to worry about being bound to the position of Primordial God.

Therefore, he still decided to go to the Realm of Kings first to take a look, and then decide which faction to join.

He did not even know the situation in the Realm of Kings yet; there was no need to rush.

Seeing that he refused so easily, the other several Primordial Gods could not help but sigh inwardly; this newly born Chaos God had rejected such a great opportunity that they longed for but could not reach?

"True. Time is long; you can take your time to consider." The Destruction System Primordial God nodded slightly.

Although he was somewhat surprised by the other party's calmness, he thought that this genius had only cultivated for a million years and probably did not yet know the feeling of being trapped in the position of Primordial God, where one is immortal and indestructible yet makes no progress forever.

For such a Primordial God, the most desired thing is to break free from the position of Primordial God.

"However, I heard the Third-Level Civilization is also a universe?" Lin Qing said. "I am still very interested."

"The Third-Level Civilization is indeed a small universe." The Destruction System Primordial God nodded, "Many places are very similar to the real universe, and there are many mortals, but there are also many special planets and universal rules. You will understand when you go there in the future."

He sighed, "In short, if one does not have sufficient strength and background, it is better to live in the real universe."

Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.

He said no more, then looked at the several Primordial Gods and said, "Gentlemen, I have just become a Chaos God. Before reincarnating, there are still some things I must do, so I will not chat further. There is plenty of time in the future."
