Chapter 2423: Expulsion of the Cosmic Will
Not a disciple……
What is that?
Son-in-law?
It's fine for the son-in-law to call him Master Ancestor!
Xiao Feng really wanted to complain.
But complaining in this situation is not appropriate.
All the Dao Ancestors quietly absorbed and refined the Law Source, enhancing their perception and understanding of the universe.
Their efficiency far surpassed Xiao Feng's; over ten Dao Ancestors acting together, the Law Source Core Divine Mountain began to shrink at a visible pace.
However, the magnitude remained very small.
After all, this is the 20% law ocean of the entire universe; not to mention over ten Dao Ancestors, even over a hundred Dao Ancestors would still fall far short of an exaggerated level.
Moreover, this is still a group of incarnations.
The universe is vast and cannot be measured by cultivation; although Dao Ancestors are powerful and already the highest realm within the universe, if the total energy of a universe were used to forge Dao Ancestors, at least several thousand could be formed.
The main universe has only over forty Dao Ancestors partly because there are too few enlightened beings who can perfectly master a law—throughout history there have only been several dozen, and some of them have already fallen in realm, perishing in the long river of time.
Another reason is that the Cosmic Will possesses a consciousness to protect the weak, naturally balancing the numbers of strong and weak.
For example, among a billion ordinary people, only 10 to 100 supers arise; any more would trigger certain problems, causing disasters and wars in the mortal world through resource contention and power struggles, thereby reducing the number of the strong.
Scaling this up to the whole universe yields events like clan wars, resource wars, and similar major incidents.
The wars of ordinary people and those of super-powered cosmic civilizations are
consuming population and existing resources while advancing technology.
At the level of the rulers, wars consume existing strong beings, returning the 'immobile' energy to the universe, and then extracting scattered energy sources.
In short, it is a cycle of energy and matter.
Over forty Dao Ancestors, for the main universe, is a relatively healthy number; perhaps adding a few more or over ten would still be acceptable.
But if growth continues unchecked, the Cosmic Will will react, triggering a cosmic catastrophe that causes Dao Ancestors to fall and the number of eternal strong beings to sharply decline.
Although the main universe is no longer a pure natural universe, with the Universe Master in control of the Cosmic Will, such a situation should not occur.
But as Chen Jie said, the Universe Master is no longer human; his divinity will gradually outweigh his humanity, slowly leaning toward the impartial, ruthless aspect of the Cosmic Will, ultimately remaining that very Cosmic Will.
For the universe and all beings, this is a good thing.
But for his family and friends, this is a tragic matter.
Xiao Feng strove to match the speed and efficiency of over ten Dao Ancestors, seizing every moment to draw power from the law ocean.
He wanted to reach that stage quickly to see what he could do for his father-in-law!
One hour, two hours……
The Dao Ancestors ignored Xiao Feng, and he was glad to take it easy.
However, after about three hours, Xiao Feng sensed numerous powerful auras appearing nearby.
The Eternal beings of the New Universe have also arrived!
They were somewhat slower than the Dao Ancestors, because after the star system field collapsed, a matter-energy storm formed, delaying them
for a while.
The Dao Ancestors arrived with a single teleport; it took them three hours to cross the storm and reach here.
"One, two, three…… nine hundred ninety-nine, one thousand……"
Xiao Feng's Divine Sense spread out, covering the surrounding billions of kilometers of Xing Kong, and the number of Eternal-level beings detected was huge.
Moreover, these were not ordinary Eternal-level beings; basically each had reached Late Eternal or higher!
"The New Universe actually has this many strong ones; it seems the Cosmic Will is truly enraged, summoning all the strong beings it can gather from the New Universe." Xiao Feng thought.
The Main Universe has bred for seventy billion years; adding up all clans, the number of strong beings at Late Eternal or above is only a few thousand.
The New Universe's strong‑being count has already reached about one‑third to one‑half, showing its growth is very rapid.
"Outsiders, you are too greedy!"
"Leave the Source of Law at once, or you will surely be slain!"
"That Source of Law belongs to us; it is not for you to meddle with!"
These strong beings came to the surrounding Xing Kong, emitting threatening Divine Sense.
Xiao Feng received the threat and almost laughed out loud.
If threats worked, what would be the point of fighting?
This group of Eternal beings was clearly intimidated by the display of over ten Dao Ancestors, not daring to act, hence only threatening there.
Otherwise, there would be no need for this trouble; they could simply strike and crush all enemies, and the Law Divine Mountain would naturally remain theirs.
"Dao Ancestors, the enemy is strong—it's up to you!" Xiao Feng's Divine Sense said.
With so many Dao Ancestors here, fighting certainly has nothing to do with him; he can continue to improve himself in peace.
This feeling
, just like over ten Dao Ancestors acting as his bodyguards, is quite comfortable!
Hum~
Then, in the void, a supreme will seemed to descend, conveying a simple and indisputable notion: Outsiders, depart!
It is the Cosmic Will!
The Cosmic Will manifested a near‑real thought, issuing a final warning to Xiao Feng and the Dao Ancestors.
If you don't leave, it will be a life‑and‑death battle!
"What do you all say?"
A Dao Ancestor of the plant civilization inquired about the Dao.
"We're merely incarnations here; could we possibly be threatened by the Cosmic Will?" Da Yi said calmly. In this life I've never feared a fight, let alone fighting a group of Eternals.
The Primordial True King's Divine Sense said: "Don't worry, the will of an ownerless universe only makes noise, with no substantive threat. These Eternal rulers can't harm us either."
"Hahaha, then let's continue!"
With the Primordial True King speaking, all the Dao Ancestors felt more at ease, after all he is a being who once surpassed the Dao Ancestors, then later descended back, and his understanding of the universe is greater and deeper than that of ordinary Dao Ancestors.
The Cosmic Will lacks the ability to engage in combat, because they are not beings of this universe; their bodies are filled with power from another universe, and they cannot be restrained by this universe's law.
Seeing their indifference, the Cosmic Will immediately issued an extermination order.
"Kill!"
A killing intent echoed simultaneously in the hearts of over a thousand Eternal beings.
They, all attacked at once!
Boom—
Around Law Divine Mountain, within a span of three hundred million kilometers, over a thousand Eternal beings manifested their battle forms; wave after wave of power capable of annihilating star systems was directed at the Dao
The Ancestors and Xiao Feng bombarded forward.
Xiao Feng sat calmly, a vortex-like material law force field appearing on the surface of his body.
This is different from the Chaos Domain formed by the Primordial Source Qi; he just learned it from his father-in-law.
Using law as a barrier, the effect of decomposing matter-energy is more efficient and pure than the collision effect of Primordial Source Qi particles.
His comprehension of material law is already close to the Dao Ancestor realm; this domain, even if it cannot reach the Cosmic Lord's level of instantly disintegrating hundreds of Eternal powerhouses' attacks, still has one-tenth of that effect, and without thirty or fifty Eternal Peaks, it's hard to break.
Take care of self-defense; the rest is just to contemplate cultivation and watch the excitement.
