You’ve become a God Realm Lord already?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the chaotic End Universe Temple, only the statue of the End Universe God stood silently, as if unchanging through endless eons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast, illusory face above regarded Lin Qing with a hint of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I had some rare encounters in the Original Realm,” Lin Qing nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He now fully understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Main Universe is essentially the cradle that nurtures Universe Gods—or rather, the cradle that nurtures the position of Universe God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Universe God position born from this Main Universe is the End Universe God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the endless chaos, other Main Universes must have also birthed the position of End Universe God, so the Anti-Entropy Origin is scattered across countless regions of chaos—yet it happened to choose him now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purpose of this End Universe Temple is to guide the birth of the End Universe God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the prerequisite is collecting the six authorities: Nature, Life, Order, Dominion, Destruction, and Chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your current power is decent, but compared to those six flawed Universe Gods, the gap remains vast,” the vast illusory face observed Lin Qing. “You didn’t come here just to greet me, did you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing got straight to the point: “I want to ask why the End Universe Temple doesn’t exist in the future timeline. When I arrived in the future, I couldn’t find this temple at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course you can’t find it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face smiled. “The past is a trace, the future is illusion—only the present is real. Every Universe God is eternally singular, possessing the trait of unifying all timelines.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unifying all timelines?” Lin Qing’s heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? You’ve figured it out?” The vast illusory face smiled faintly. “The Anti-Entropy Origin can grant you a portion of this unifying trait.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing took a deep breath. “Indeed. That’s why, each time I return from the future, my consciousness merges and instantly reaches the level of the future timeline... Is this unification?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. This is the lowest level of unification.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face said, “True Universe Gods unify all power—they are bound by no constraints, capable of infinite growth, with limitless futures, thus possessing infinite power. Every Universe God is like this, representing the highest tier of power in the endless chaos.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing fell silent for a moment, then said, “I’m certain the Lord of Star Abyss hides within Star Abyss—but he doesn’t exist in the future timeline. Does he possess the traits of a Universe God?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Naturally.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face said, “Every Lord of an Alternate Universe is like this. Once they obtain the portion of Universe God authority within their Alternate Universe, their past and future are locked and contained—they do not exist in past or future. Whether you descend into the past or the future, you will never find any trace of an Alternate Universe Lord.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So that’s how it is...” Lin Qing murmured. “So all Alternate Universe Lords are like this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. That’s precisely why Alternate Universe Lords are so hard to deal with,” the vast illusory face said. “No trace in the past, no existence in the future—you can only confront them with raw power.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing slowly nodded. “I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his mood grew somber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally hoped to leverage the threat of the Lord of Star Abyss to gain help from the Three Realms Gods of the Void God Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But facing an Alternate Universe Lord who doesn’t exist in either past or future, he couldn’t prove the Lord of Star Abyss’s true existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, whether the Three Realms Gods helped him no longer mattered much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Be careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face said, “Even if you become the strongest God Realm Lord and acquire one of the six Universe God authorities, you’ll still struggle to oppose an Alternate Universe Lord.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are Alternate Universe Lords this powerful?” Lin Qing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve served this End Universe God position through multiple collapsed Main Universes—most were destroyed by Alternate Universe Lords.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face sighed. “Alternate Universe Lords are indeed immensely powerful. Each is inherently strong, bolstered by Alternate Universe energy, and possesses partial Universe God authority—far surpassing those six flawed Universe Gods by countless times.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing fell into thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ancestral God of Realms was essentially an Alternate Universe God Realm Lord, plus a fragmented Universe God authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his cultivation level was too low, so he was only comparable to the strongest God Realm Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alternate Universe Lords receive far greater Alternate Universe reinforcement, stronger partial Universe God authorities, and higher cultivation levels and realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, the strongest God Realm Lord stands no chance against an Alternate Universe Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Some Alternate Universe Lords have peculiar methods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast illusory face said. “Some have even received Universe God legacies, making it difficult to judge their true power.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qing fell silent for a moment, then nodded. “Thank you for the guidance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, he would do his best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast and immense Shanhai Realm grew increasingly prosperous and powerful, while Lin Qing, the Universe Lord, rarely appeared, remaining in seclusion for cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His true body remained in Shanhai Realm, refining various combat techniques and striving to enhance his power as much as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His five incarnations traveled into the endless chaos, doing everything they could to gather treasures, rare materials for forging Pillar-level Universe Treasures, and peculiar Chaos artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already exchanged all useful treasures from the Void God Clan’s treasury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After piecing together everything, he finally gathered enough to forge another Pillar-level Universe Treasure—and luckily, it became the core treasure of his Black Flame Incarnation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also acquired several Chaos artifacts of great assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the calm before a storm, time flowed silently for tens of millions of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deepest within Star Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The colossal Star Abyss Eye, vast as a miniature universe, greedily gazed upon Shanhai Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, this Star Abyss Eye had never cared about semi-god-level civilizations.\u003C\u002Fp>",1237,"2026-06-20T02:41:36.491Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","6ad50e9cbd27c7095a8fed98e2b40979f27445e4f487c870f31c58e525f907c3","lawful-tyrant-chapter-440","lawful-tyrant-chapter-438",442,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flawful-tyrant-cover.jpg"]
