Chapter 318: Return to Jiang Shen Star

Above the World Tree that covers the entire Divine Kingdom, a colossal vortex appears in the void—a nine‑colored vortex, circles of massive spirals, vast and endless, bearing boundless power.

Perhaps Xiao Yu is the only Universe Lord in the Primordial Universe who has fully comprehended the Ten Fundamental Laws, and even the arrival of the Law Ocean differs from that of other Universe Lords.

What descends directly is not the Time and Space Law Ocean, but the entire Ten Fundamental Laws Ocean.

Just now, Xiao Yu's Human True Body also returned to the Divine Kingdom, atop the World Tree canopy.

He gazes at the Cosmic Origin above, emitting endless pressure—a massive nine‑colored vortex over 200 light‑years in diameter.

Black vortex, white vortex, golden vortex, red vortex, blue vortex, and so on.

Each Fundamental Law radiates an incomparably powerful aura.

The nine‑colored Cosmic Origin Law waters surge back, rushing straight toward Xiao Yu's World Tree.

"Wildly devour divine power," Xiao Yu thinks, and the World Tree employs a secret technique to ravenously consume its divine power.

The Human True Body also devours wildly; in an instant, Xiao Yu's Human True Body has fully transformed into the Universe Lord Divine Body, its strength increased a thousandfold.

It is ten times stronger than a typical Universe Lord Divine Body.

The basic divine power of a Universe Lord is a billion times that of a Realm Lord, yet ordinary Universe Lords can already reach several thousand times the genetic tier; a Divine Body amplitude of a hundred times is merely the baseline.

Because Xiao Yu's divine power is immense, his basic strength reaches one hundred thousand times that of a Universe Lord.

After a moment, the Law Ocean recedes, and the Divine Kingdom instantly regains tranquility.

Now, even if Xiao Yu wields a Top-level Treasure in the Primordial Universe, he can still unleash Sixth Tier peak combat power.

"Now, the most important things for me are: first, the World Tree Divine Body conversion rate; second, having broken through the Universe Lord, the Divine Kingdom must be further refined; third, forging a treasure exclusive to myself."

Xiao Yu looks at his vast Divine Kingdom.

The Divine Kingdom is slowly metamorphosing now; expanding its scope is secondary, the more crucial point is that its structure becomes increasingly stable, approaching its limit. One must know that after this refinement, the next breakthrough will be the Divine Kingdom's transition to a 'Small Universe.' This is the ultimate stage of the Divine Kingdom.

Xiao Yu takes out the Top-level Treasure Bright Moon Bottle, which has absorbed Heavenly Gang Purple Fire, and instantly appears at an Endless Flame Land on the edge of the Divine Kingdom.

Under Xiao Yu's deliberate control, eight zones rich in each of the Eight Great Fundamental Laws formed at the Divine Kingdom's border; now Xiao Yu has arrived at the Fire Land, an Endless Flame Land three light‑years wide and over one hundred light‑years long.

Xiao Yu proceeds straight to the core of the Endless Flame Land; under divine power control, the entire fire region forms a massive valley, with all flames converging within a valley only one light‑year in diameter.

As the Lord of the Divine Kingdom, Xiao Yu can freely manipulate its terrain.

"From now on, this place shall be called the Treasure‑Refining Ground, and my many avatars will refine treasures here," Xiao Yu thinks, placing the Bright Moon Bottle into the valley, and the flame temperature instantly rises several dozen times.

With a flick of Xiao Yu's mind, fifty avatars instantly detach from the World Tree canopy mid‑air, falling like ripe fruit.

Each of these fifty avatars possesses ten thousand times a Universe Lord's power, and each also has a hundredfold soul sensitivity.

Xiao Yu hands all the precious materials inside the World Ring to these fifty specialized Treasure‑Refining avatars, then immediately departs the Divine Kingdom, appearing inside the Divine Power Base.

The World Tree Main Root appears in the main control room, instantly initiating a recovery speed of tens of millions times, while Xiao Yu's World Tree Divine Body's divine power conversion rate gradually rises.

The resident Divine Avatar at the Divine Power Base merges into the World Tree Root, then separates again as a Divine Avatar wielding ten thousand times a Universe Lord's divine power.

Immediately, Xiao Yu instantly teleports away from the Divine Power Base, each teleport covering fifty thousand light‑years.

The feeling of controlling space‑time is exhilarating; everything around is fully under command.

After less than a day of continuous teleporting, he arrives at Jiang Shen Star.

"Which Universe Lord?" a voice boomed.

At the same time, a figure suddenly appears before Xiao Yu—it is the mountain‑giant Jiang Shen.

"It is I, Yan Sancai," Xiao Yu transmits his voice from the void.

"Yan Sancai, you finally appeared again!" Jiang Shen sighs, then his eyes go blank, "You, you actually broke through to become a Universe Lord."

"Luck," Xiao Yu smiles faintly.

"Come, let's talk inside," Jiang Shen invites.

Two massive figures descend within the void of Jiang Shen Mountain.

"Jiang Shen has emerged."

"Jiang Shen has emerged."

At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of Universe Venerables and Immortals still kneel, begging Jiang Shen to take disciples.

Both Treasure Refining Masters ignore the people at the mountain's base and appear directly in Xiao Yu's palace.

"Just in time you arrived; I was about to go visit a friend and won't be back for several epochs. Please watch over things for me," Jiang Shen says, then turns to the two Xiao Yus in the room, "Seeing the two of you, I almost thought you were both Universe Lords; yet both can make me feel threatened—how interesting!"

Jiang Shen truly lives up to being a long‑time Treasure Refining Master; his soul is strong enough to vaguely sense Xiao Yu's power.

"Fine, no problem. And let's be clear—if I take your business, don't blame me!" Xiao Yu laughs.

"Ha ha," Jiang Shen laughs heartily and departs.

Yan Sancai turns, looks at Xiao Yu, and hands over a World Ring, "Xiao Yu, this is material I obtained earlier."

"Excellent!" Xiao Yu takes the World Ring; divine power permeates it, containing massive resources—materials Yan Sancai accumulated over more than fifty thousand years.

"Yan Sancai, come in, replace the Divine Body," Xiao Yu whispers, and a World Ring materializes in his hand.

Immediately, Yan Sancai enters the World Ring in Xiao Yu's hand, merges with a World Tree Main Root, and reappears as an avatar whose divine power equals ten thousand times a Universe Lord.

These avatars can be called Xiao Yu's avatars, or even Xiao Yu himself; they share his soul and possess sufficient divine power and soul energy to wield all of Xiao Yu's strength.

Then Xiao Yu leaves Jiang Shen Star, continuously teleporting; in less than a day, he instantly teleports from Jiang Shen Star straight back to the human realm, Earth.

Today's Earth, after tens of thousands of years of development, is vastly different.

It can be said that technology and nature have perfectly merged; now Earth rivals an SSS‑grade living planet.

Men and women, some clad in training robes, others in casual wear, walk the streets; at a glance, the city shows no vehicles whatsoever.

Only the newborns of the Four Great Families, at least Domain Lord Level, can come to Earth and live there; even members of the Four Great Families below Domain Lord Level cannot obtain permission to reside on Earth.

Walking on Earth, besides the newborns, one often sees some Realm Lords flying on the streets.

Over these tens of thousands of years, the Earth lineage has not only received abundant resources from Xiao Yu and others, but also the devoted cultivation of Xiao Yu's Divine Avatars; otherwise, so many Realm Lords and nearly a hundred Immortal‑level elites would not have emerged.

Precisely, there are 96 Immortal‑level individuals; among them, the Xiao lineage produced 46, including Xiao Ling and others, the Luo family has 18 Immortal‑level members, the Lei Shen family has 15, the Hong family has 15, and two Immortals belong to other Earth families.
