Chapter 421: The Invitation of the Ancestor of the Star Abyss
"Come."
Lin Qing said no more; as he rose gracefully, the power within his inner world began to surge.
"Very confident," the Left Divine General observed Lin Qing and warned, "You may not know, but we have no obvious weaknesses; our capabilities in all aspects approach that of a Lord of a Divine Realm, equivalent to having cultivated multiple lineages created by Cosmic Gods."
The Right Divine General spoke in a low voice, "Let it be known beforehand: we will not hold back."
Lin Qing shook his head slightly, waited for nothing, and with a mere thought, a vast, boundless illusory world as immense as the universe descended upon reality, instantly enveloping the two Divine Generals!
In the next moment, the terrifying auras of the two Divine Generals, which had approached that of a Lord of a Divine Realm, suddenly weakened, falling to less than one-tenth of their previous level!
"You..."
The Left Divine General looked at Lin Qing in shock. "A will secret technique of the Cosmic God lineage level is one thing, but how can an Eternal Existence possess a mental will comparable to that of a High-Level Lord of a Divine Realm?"
The Right Divine General's eyes were also filled with disbelief: "Impossible!"
Although they were guardian spirits condensed from the primordial power of the Divine Temple, they were aware of the power levels across all tiers.
—Eternal Existence, Ultimate Existence, Lord of a Divine Realm.
Mastering one additional rule and using it as a foundation to transform the inner world or inner universe would elevate one's strength by nearly a major tier!
But...
Merely an Eternal Existence, even with the greatest of opportunities, could at most transform a mental will comparable to an ordinary Lord of a Divine Realm; that was already an unimaginable limit!
How could the will possibly rival that of a High-Level Lord of a Divine Realm who mastered two rules?
"Boom! Boom!"
Lin Qing casually reached out; his terrifying mental will instantly merged with his power, transforming into two giant palms wreathed in endless heavenly punishments and calamities, which he then lightly slapped toward the two Divine Generals—
Terrible power descended, instantly reducing the two Divine Generals, whose strength had plummeted, to dust.
Only then did Lin Qing withdraw his power and land calmly.
—This was his true strength after taking things somewhat seriously.
Such terrifying mental will could not only unleash the Great Extinction of the Illusory World to greatly weaken enemies; if he employed the True God of the Heart, the boost to his strength would be equally astonishing!
Even against a true Lord of a Divine Realm, an ordinary single-rule Lord of a Divine Realm would likely not be his match!
Defeating these two Divine Generals, who were inferior even to a Lord of a Divine Realm, was naturally even simpler.
"Whoosh—"
Vast amounts of primordial power converged as two torrents over ten light-years thick, reforming the Left and Right Divine Generals in the blink of an eye.
"Unbelievable..."
The Left Divine General stared at Lin Qing. "An Eternal Existence who has mastered two rules possesses such strength? Even a true Ultimate Existence who has mastered the Chaos Ultimate Rule would need to cultivate multiple Cosmic God lineages or a Divine Lord-level secret technique of the Chaos Ultimate Rule to defeat us."
"How did you do it?" the Right Divine General could not help but ask. "I can see your base strength is merely that of a top-tier Eternal Existence with two rules, comparable to an ordinary Ultimate Existence, but how is your mental will so outrageous?"
Lin Qing was too lazy to explain and casually replied, "Perhaps I am the reincarnation of a two-rule Lord of a Divine Realm?"
The Left Divine General paused slightly and said, "Impossible. Even an Ultimate Existence relies on the will of their inner universe, and a Lord of a Divine Realm relies even more on the True God will nurtured within their inner universe. Once reincarnated, the mental will would also plummet; what good is reincarnation?"
"Just a fortunate encounter," Lin Qing shook his head slightly.
Normally, the strength of one's mental will depends primarily on the might of one's inner world or inner universe; the will of the world or the will of the universe is one's personal will.
However, his case was a special exception, as he had merged with his own consciousness from the future timeline.
Yet, even he himself was unsure of the cause behind this occurrence.
"In any case, you have passed the first trial of the Endless Universe Divine Temple and are qualified to receive the temple's 'Proof of the End'."
The Right Divine General did not press further, simply stating, "If you can push open the temple's great doors, you will receive the temple's true reward."
As he spoke, an ancient token resembling cast green copper quietly appeared before Lin Qing.
"Endless Universe Divine Temple?"
After taking the token, Lin Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "What is its connection to the Primordial Cosmic God?"
"We are merely guardian spirits; we know nothing of such matters," the Left Divine General shook his head.
The Right Divine General added, "If you can push the doors open and enter the temple's interior, you may then learn the answer."
"Very well."
Lin Qing asked no more, then looked at the two towering, colossal gates covered in colorful relief carvings, standing tens of thousands of light-years high, and asked, "Is the difficulty of pushing open these two gates very high?"
"Not particularly high, but you should not be able to do it."
The Left Divine General thought for a moment and said, "But you may try."
Intrigued, Lin Qing immediately activated the World God and another Divine Lord-level secret technique specializing in power and might, which two rules governed, transforming himself into a towering World God over one light-year tall, standing before the gates.
However, compared to the two Divine Generals, who were over ten light-years tall, he was already a mere speck; compared to the two colossal gates standing tens of thousands of light-years high, he was utterly insignificant.
It looked no different from an ant trying to shake a tree.
"Hah!"
Lin Qing placed both hands on the two colossal gates and began to exert his full strength in an attempt to open them.
Although the Great Extinction of the Illusory World was ineffective against the two gates, after fully employing the True God of the Heart, with the will of a High-Level Lord of a Divine Realm supporting him, his own strength was already comparable to that of a Lord of a Divine Realm!
At this moment, he was employing the Divine Lord-level secret technique that specialized in power.
The sheer might was enough to make the Divine Realms of an entire universe tremble.
However—
"Hmm?"
Lin Qing was somewhat surprised.
No matter how hard he pushed, the two towering gates remained completely motionless!
They did not even tremble the slightest bit.
"Not a single inch moved," Lin Qing could not help but ask, "What level of power is required to push them open?"
"A High-Level Lord of a Divine Realm, or an Ultimate Existence who has mastered the Chaos Ultimate Rule, could easily push them open," the Right Divine General replied.
"Very well." Lin Qing shook his head slightly and added, "But even if I become an Ultimate Existence or the Lord of a Divine Realm, I still cannot enter the Prime Universe. At best, I can only reach my home world."
The Prime Universe rejects all Ultimate Existences from entering.
Even the Three Realms Gods and the Three Primordial Ancestors cannot enter.
"It does not matter."
Left Divine General said, "Did they not give you the Proof of the End? As long as you touch the Prime Universe, you can directly teleport to this Temple of the Endless Universe."
Right Divine General then said, "Actually, after achieving Ultimate Existence through the Chaos Ultimate Laws, one will no longer be rejected by the Prime Universe; instead, one can control the Prime Universe to a certain extent."
Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.
The Three Great Space-Time Laws, which are the Chaos Ultimate Laws, are indeed special enough.
By achieving Ultimate through them, one can control the Prime Universe to a certain extent?
Unheard of.
However, in the past, even the Eternal Existence who mastered the Chaos Ultimate Laws was only the Lord of the Dormitory, and no one knew what an Ultimate Existence was like.
"I advise you to push open these two doors before establishing a Divine Realm, entering as much as possible before possessing a True God within your inner universe."
