Chapter 411

The fifth-order cosmic battlefield, located at the center of the Main Universe’s Hunsuan Plane, is the place where the highest cosmic primordial source converges.

Normally, only the Void God Clan can enter the Hunsuan Plane; the Star Abyss Demon Clan can only forcibly seep in partial areas.

While Lin Qing waited at the spacetime node at the plane’s entrance, piloting the Huanghui Tian spacecraft, another majestic palace suddenly shattered through space and arrived.

“Senior brother, that’s the ‘Palace of Gods’ of an Immortal Realm sovereign.” Qi Xuan Gong said: “It seems to be someone from the Divine Court lineage of the Immortal Realm.”

Lin Qing nodded slightly.

The strongest force in the Immortal Realm is the Divine Court lineage—the faction founded by the Cosmic Sovereign of the Immortal Realm, now considered the most powerful human faction.

Of course, if we look back a hundred billion years, the strongest force was the Primordial Realm imperial clan.

“Is it the Grand Primordial Duke of the Tian Guang Divine Nation?”

At that moment, a deep male voice echoed from within the majestic palace: “I am the First Star Lord of the Divine Court, ‘Lin Shen Jun,’ accompanied by all the Star Lords of the Divine Court. Will the Grand Primordial Duke be willing to meet and converse?”

“Now?” Lin Qing asked.

“Either later or now is fine,” Lin Shen Jun said. “We’ve recently discovered a chaotic marvel in the Immortal Realm and were considering whether to invite the Grand Primordial Duke for assistance. This is a perfect opportunity to test whether your power truly lives up to legend. If you can help, we may grant you a slot.”

Lin Qing, uninterested, replied casually: “We’re already in the Hunsuan Plane. Let’s discuss this after we enter the Alliance Hall.”

Lin Shen Jun, a disciple of the Immortal Realm sovereign, was stronger than figures like Yu Gong and Luo Shen Jun, ranking among the top three strongest beings beneath the Ultimate Existences.

From his tone, it was clear he resented Lin Qing’s reputation as the undisputed number one.

If he truly acknowledged Lin Qing as the strongest, why bother testing him?

“The Grand Primordial Duke need not wait anxiously.”

Lin Shen Jun said coolly: “The Void God Clan places great importance on the Hunsuan Plane and only opens this spacetime node at fixed intervals. We’ll still need to wait decades. Why not discuss other matters first?”

Lin Qing was about to speak when the spacetime node suddenly split and expanded into a colossal spacetime gateway, revealing a world saturated with boundless primordial energy.

“Huh? Opened early?” Lin Shen Jun was taken aback.

At once, three Void God Clan members with two pairs of tricolored wings flew out, all turning toward Lin Qing’s Huanghui Tian spacecraft with smiles.

The four-armed humanoid Void God Clan leader spoke with great courtesy: “Thank you, Master Lin Qing, for aiding our clan. We’ve been awaiting you. Please follow me.”

He then glanced at the nearby Immortal Realm palace and added: “Has the Immortal Divine Court’s reinforcement force arrived as well? Then come along together.”

Immediately, the Void God Clan member gestured toward Lin Qing’s spacecraft in invitation.

Inside the Palace of Gods, a man clad in golden royal robes stared in disbelief: “That’s the Void God Clan’s ‘Tian Yang Shen Jun’? Treating Lin Qing with such deference?”

Lin Shen Jun already held an extremely high status among humans, especially in the Immortal Realm—higher than some Divine Nation sovereigns, powerful enough to suppress certain Ultimate Existences, and a direct disciple of the strongest human being.

Beneath the Ultimate Existences, there were barely a handful of humans with higher status than him!

He never expected the Void God Clan to open the Hunsuan Plane’s spacetime node early for him—yet they did so for Lin Qing?

Most importantly…

The Void God Clan’s Tian Yang Shen Jun personally came to greet Lin Qing?

The title “Shen Jun” used by the Immortal Realm and Lin Yuan Realm was borrowed from the Void God Clan, and every Void God Shen Jun had studied the Boundary God legacy—each at least on the level of Yu Gong!

Tian Yang Shen Jun was renowned even among the Void God Clan: immensely powerful, capable of easily defeating many Ultimate Existences, and crucially, the emissary of the future Boundary God!

His status far surpassed Lin Shen Jun’s.

Tian Yang Shen Jun had once visited the Immortal Realm, and even Lin Shen Jun’s master, the Immortal Realm sovereign, had personally received him with great courtesy.

No matter how high Lin Shen Jun’s status in the Immortal Realm, he never dreamed Tian Yang Shen Jun would personally greet him.

And yet, this man was treating Lin Qing with such deference?

Lin Shen Jun could not comprehend it.

…

“Greetings, Tian Yang Shen Jun.”

Lin Qing, also surprised, said: “You came to greet me personally?”

“Master Lin Qing is favored by the Father God; such treatment is only natural,” Tian Yang Shen Jun smiled.

“I see,” Lin Qing realized.

The Void God Clan had granted second-generation bloodline only once in human history—to the Primordial Realm sovereign. They had never bestowed it upon anyone else, underscoring its uniqueness.

Since the future Boundary God granted him second-generation bloodline, it was only natural that the Shen Jun of that faction would value him.

“Master Lin Qing, please.”

Tian Yang Shen Jun immediately guided the spacecraft through into the Hunsuan Plane.

The Palace of Gods from the Immortal Realm also benefited from the exception and entered early.

“Such dense primordial energy.”

After entering the Hunsuan Plane, Lin Qing’s eyes brightened.

Though as a Supreme God, he could enter the cosmic primordial space at will, that was the heart of the Main Universe—the place with the greatest primordial concentration, bearing infinite cosmic power. Even a Divine Nation sovereign who dared enter would instantly dissolve into nothingness; he didn’t know whether the Three Realms God could even enter.

Yet the primordial energy here was extraordinarily dense; living in such an environment would make cultivation unimaginably easy.

The Void God Clan already possessed extraordinary innate talent, and living in this environment explained why every one of them was a powerhouse.

“We’ve arrived.”

After traveling for days through this world awash in boundless cosmic primordial energy, they finally reached a vast continent.

There, they halted before a majestic divine palace.

This was unmistakably the Void God Clan’s “Alliance Hall,” specially prepared for humans and the Mechanical Clan.

Inside the palace, many human and mechanical clan warriors were already present.

Lin Qing saw the Mechanical Clan for the first time—radically different from human civilization. The Mechanical Clan were fundamentally information-based lifeforms; their bodies were merely cleverly combined carriers—some as intricate as cosmic machinery, some pure energy aggregates, others resembling human biological forms, yet all had cultivated inner worlds.

All paths ultimately converge.

Spacetime rules and inner worlds are the only way to reach the ultimate in boundless chaos.

“Master Lin Qing, this way.”

Tian Yang Shen Jun smiled as he watched Lin Qing and the Tian Guang Divine Nation group float gracefully from the spacecraft, then led them into the Alliance Hall.

The other factions who had arrived earlier stared in astonishment.

What status does he have?

Why is Tian Yang Shen Jun personally guiding him?

“Isn’t that Lin Qing from the Lie Wang Realm’s Tian Guang Divine Nation? I heard he subdued Yu Gong.”

“I heard he’s the successor after the Primordial Realm’s fall—the Grand Primordial Duke.”

“Could he really have such status?”

All the powerful figures whispered among themselves, and the Mechanical Clan immediately transmitted the news back to their clan.
