Chapter 2369: with translation of chapter title

Unfamiliar rules.

This universe is very unfriendly to us.

Our strength has dropped significantly, and the recovery speed of our origin has also declined.

After arriving in the new universe, all the rulers felt the new universe suppressing them.

This unfamiliar world clearly rejects outsiders, very unfriendly.

Although the universe itself has no mobility and cannot expel living beings, it can reduce outsiders' survivability through its internal environment, and it can also mobilize internal beings to cleanse invaders, much like the human immune system fighting viruses.

The passage between the two realms has been closed.

Xiao Feng could not sense the aura of his homeland universe; being in a foreign universe, although there were many compatriots around, he felt utterly alone, a vague sense of timidity and loneliness arising unbidden in his heart, like a lone weed standing on barren earth, liable to be trampled or eaten by passing beasts at any moment.

"Lord of the Heavens, where are you headed? Is anyone coming to fetch you?" the Bloodthirsty Tyrant asked.

Xiao Feng shook his head: "Just wandering around."

Anyway, his origin isn't here; even if he died, he could revive in his homeland, so there's nothing to fear.

On the barren land of the Primordial Ground, many strongers who had arrived earlier were waiting for their friends, hoping to bring them along on adventures and pass on some experience.

The Bloodthirsty Tyrant had no companions; his reputation within his own clan wasn't great, which is why he had earlier asked Xiao Feng if he wanted to team up.

At this time, many strongers gathered in small groups, chatting about old times.

Some strongers had already set out.

The Bloodthirsty Tyrant also set out, his form flashing, turning into a

A bloody-red light shot toward an unknown direction in the new universe.

The universe differs from a planet; it is boundless… truly boundless.

The universe's barriers cannot be sensed by beings; it looks no different from other starry skies.

When a living being reaches the boundary, it does not hit a wall nor bounce back; instead, under the effect of spatial structure, it continues forward, extending further.

Because… the universe expands and grows; when a living being reaches the boundary, it expands the boundary, becoming ever larger.

Such growth is nearly endless, because at the boundary one cannot teleport, and beings' flight speed is limited, at best reaching light speed, yet even that cannot keep up with the universe's expansion speed.

Flying at light speed for a few hundred million years only covers a range of a few hundred million light-years.

But the universe's own expansion speed exceeds light speed; after a few hundred million years, its self-expanded diameter is at least several billion light-years!

During the universe's 'ultra-rapid growth period,' it can even expand at over ten light-years per second; not to mention chasing it with speed, if one's strength is insufficient, even teleporting within stable space cannot catch up with the unstable boundary pushing outward.

The side of the new universe facing the main universe appears fixed, but it actually changes as well.

The new universe cannot push against the main universe to grow in that direction, but it can squeeze itself backward; thus, whenever the cosmic passage opens every ten years, the spatial coordinates are actually different each time.

However, the newborn universe's space is often empty, with little opportunity, so no one ventures that way to explore.

Only the core region of the universe holds the greatest opportunities.

It is said that there

often give birth to some primordial supreme treasures, primordial beings have already appeared in great numbers, and they have even begun to form some superior environments and primitive civilizations.

Xiao Feng also set out.

A single teleport of several hundred billion kilometers, moving toward the depths of the universe.

The universe is vast and boundless; the continent of the Primordial Ground serves as a reference point for direction.

"Han Zichen, I've arrived in the new universe; where are you now?"

Another incarnation of Xiao Feng was communicating with Han Zichen.

Han Zichen, who had been tempered in the new universe for two hundred years, replied: "We are currently in the Purple Nebula Zone, number 80024, of the First Growth Era, just about to leave. Fellow Daoist, if you're coming from the Primordial Ground, it'll be a bit far; be careful on the road, some places look calm but are actually extremely dangerous, hiding many imperceptible terrifying beings."

"Hmm, I'll come find you as soon as I can." Xiao Feng nodded slightly.

The Chaos Evasion Technique can dodge the obstruction of the vast majority of beings; even an Eternal-level expert would find it hard to instantly capture or kill him, and his escape ability remains reliable.

As for combat power…

The suppression Xiao Feng experiences is less than that of other rulers; the material law is a universal force across all universes and does not weaken just because one changes location.

However, his recovery speed has slowed; the external cosmic energy doesn't favor him, so he can't gulp it down in one breath. If he fights to exhaustion, he must spend several days absorbing the matter and energy of a stretch of starry sky to fully replenish.

Not far away, many other strongers were teleporting in the air above the ground.

Beings of different strength have different teleportation distances.

Xiao Feng saw a being of similar strength, an alien ruler

who was acting alone, and shortly after left the entrance position by six or seven trillion kilometers.

One light-year is about 9.8 trillion kilometers; this Primordial Ground spans roughly one light-year, so they quickly reached the vicinity of the boundary.

Xiao Feng lowered his head and hurried on; the ruler, seeing his pace similar to his own, greeted: "Hey, human friend, which universe-state are you from?"

"The Stellar River Universe-State, Lord of the Heavens. And you?" Xiao Feng replied via Divine Sense.

"I am the ruler of the Qilan Universe-State of the Plant Civilization, the Soul-Eater Lord." The other also reported his background.

Xiao Feng asked: "Are you heading to the First Growth Era?"

Yes, the new universe currently has only two growth eras; the first era is maturing, its laws relatively stable, while the second era has just begun developing, with extremely high danger, unsuitable for our mid-low strength exploration." The Soul-Eater Lord replied.

"Then we'll travel together." Xiao Feng smiled.

"Haha, there are plenty of fellow travelers; look around and behind, many companions." The Soul-Eater Lord also laughed.

Those who dare to venture into the Second Growth Era are basically stronger beings among the Eternals; ordinary Eternals dare not explore that place.

The First Growth Era is the main adventuring ground; it is vast, and even if all the rulers of the main universe came, it could accommodate them.

At this moment, hundreds of rulers who had already set out were heading toward the core region of the First Growth Era; they were fellow travelers but also potential rivals, so those on poor terms kept their distance from each other.

The Bloodthirsty Tyrant, who had earlier greeted Xiao Feng, was also on this road; his speed was fast, placing him at the forefront, as he

flashing, teleporting, having already left the land range and entered the starry void.

At this moment, the Bloodthirsty Tyrant, who had just entered the starry void, suddenly came to a halt!

Only seen far ahead, in the Xing Kong the floating lonely Planet and wandering meteoroids, interstellar dust were swiftly gathering, drawing near each other, like a vortex.

"A mysterious force is at work!" the Divine Sense of the bloodthirsty tyrant transmitted into the Xing Kong.
