Chapter 421: The True Inheritance

Immediately, Xiao Yu's thought moved, and another 500 World Tree Main Roots continuously traversed the endless space‑time of the Cosmic Sea, rushing toward the Small Universe Origin Land of the Second True Lord.

Soon after, Xiao Yu marked the Small Universe Origin Lands of the Third True Lord, Fourth True Lord, Fifth True Lord, Sixth True Lord, and Seventh True Lord; each small universe was assigned 500 World Tree Main Roots to come and devour.

Immediately, Xiao Yu used continuous Instant Teleportation to appear outside the small universe of the Divine Eye True Lord, waiting.

After about half a month, the World Tree Main Roots successively appeared in all the Small Universe Origin Lands of the Divine Eye Clan, beginning to ravenously devour the Origin.

The seven small universes of the Divine Eye Clan spent three cycles of reincarnation eras to swallow the chaotic flux‑formed Universe Primordial Energy, which, through the World Tree's devouring absorption and transformation, was transmitted back into Xiao Yu's massive Divine Kingdom and stored within the Divine Kingdom.

Outside the small universes, Xiao Yu kept monitoring the matter, while continuously observing the movements of the Eternal True God deep within the Cosmic Sea; for now, he has not seen any sign of its breath weakening.

However, Xiao Yu's Divine Avatar has already begun short‑range, nonstop Instant Teleportation to prevent the Eternal True God from being lost, and he has not yet noticed.

At this moment, the Eternal True God, in Xiao Yu's eyes, looks like a dripping‑fat cake—indeed ten Strongest Supreme Treasures.

Outside the Divine Eye True Lord's small universe, the weakened Xiao Yu caused by the Eternal True God waits quietly, also contemplating the gains and losses of his battle with the Divine Eye Clan.

In this battle, he wielded the bizarre and powerful Phantom Slash to confront the Eternal True God, who was far stronger than him; during it he made mistakes and had shortcomings.

This battle exposed many of his deficiencies and caused his Voidified World to shatter.

"Meng Lao," Xiao Yu called from deep within his consciousness.

Immediately, his Human True Body's primary consciousness was drawn into an endless Starry Sky World.

Looking up, Meng Lao smiled at him, "Kid, you did well."

"Huh?" Xiao Yu asked, puzzled, wondering what he had done well.

"You, a tiny Universe Lord, can already wield Void True God Level combat power, so naturally you did well," Meng Lao laughed, "In this battle, although you had many errors and omissions, your overall performance was still passable."

"Um, Meng Lao, in this battle I cultivated the core of the Primordial Soul Secret Method, and my Voidified World has shattered; is there a way to restore it?" Xiao Yu asked anxiously.

"Ha ha," Meng Lao burst into laughter, "No need to worry; if the Voidified World can shatter, it can also be restored. I don't know whether it's a Curse or what, but once you cultivate the Primordial Soul Secret Method beyond the Fifth Tier, it will break for various reasons."

"Huh? So, Meng Lao, you have also shattered before," Xiao Yu said, incredulous, looking at Meng Lao.

"Yes, that's right; that was a long time ago," Meng Lao showed a nostalgic expression, a smile unconsciously curving his lips.

Xiao Yu made no disturbance and simply stood there quietly.

After a long while, Meng Lao finally regained his composure and said, "Although the Voidified World is shattered, the world seed remained in the instant of its breaking, lodged deep within your Soul Consciousness. Calmly sense it, and you will discover something."

Xiao Yu instantly calmed his mind, probing deep within his Soul Consciousness inch by inch; in a moment, he finally made a discovery.

Xiao Yu exclaimed, "Meng Lao, I found a crystal‑clear micro‑particle deep in my consciousness—extremely tiny; if I hadn't carefully examined it repeatedly, I might have missed it."

Earlier, Xiao Yu had examined his soul and found nothing, but trusting that Meng Lao would not deceive him, he kept re‑examining until, deep in his soul, he finally detected that tiny anomaly.

"Indeed, your talent is high; you managed to discover it in such a short time. That crystal micro‑particle is the seed of the Voidified World. Normally it would take root and sprout deep in your soul, absorbing your soul power to grow, and only after reaching a certain stage can it be detected," Meng Lao laughed, "The fact that you can now detect it shows your Soul Strength is already comparable to Void True God Level."

"Meng Lao, since this particle is the seed of the Voidified World, how can it be made to grow back to its original state—by devouring soul power?" Xiao Yu asked further, noting that the Primordial Soul Secret Method inheritance he received offered no solution for this situation.

"Ha ha, you silly kid, now that you already possess a world seed, why still cultivate it as a Voidified World seed?" Meng Lao laughed, "This seed can fully grow into an entire genuine world; what kind of world it becomes depends on the nature of the energy you feed it."

"Meng Lao, if it grows into a normal world, wouldn't that duplicate the Divine Kingdom? Moreover, once my realm advances, I could generate a universe in a year; is such a world really important?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Ha ha! Kid, let me ask you, is borrowed power more useful, or is one's own power more useful?" Meng Lao suddenly asked.

"Obviously one's own is better; if it's borrowed, no matter how strong, it's a house of cards—once the lender stops providing it, you can no longer wield the original ability," Xiao Yu replied.

At this moment Xiao Yu recalled the distinction between the Universe Lord and True God realms in the Primordial Universe; to become a Universe Lord, one can either fully comprehend the Space‑Time Law, or fully grasp a Fusion Principle that merges a Lower-level Law with a Higher Law.

Both ways can make one a Universe Lord, and a Universe Lord can reverse time‑space, a capability granted by the Primordial Universe.

But is the Universe Lord's own understanding of the Space‑Time Law alone sufficient to reverse time‑space?

Xiao Yu did not know; lacking comparative cases, he could not judge accurately, but at least in his view, a Universe Lord attained through mastering the Fusion Principle does not possess such ability.

"You're right; whether it's the Universe Lord or the True God, the Fundamental Will of Space‑Time Control they possess can be arbitrarily stripped away, making such power unreliable. Since what you have comprehended are the laws of the Primordial Universe, all the law‑based secret arts you employ only function within those Law Radiation Ranges," Meng Lao continued.

"If these law radiations cannot reach, no matter how powerful your created secret arts are, they will not exert any effect," Meng Lao added, "Of course, given your current realm, this is still premature; even if you later go to the so‑called Origin Continent, you need not worry about such matters."

Although Xiao Yu has no personal experience, he has read some imaginative novels that feature similar scenarios.

"Meng Lao, could this seed be the cornerstone of my future growth?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Indeed, this seed will be the cornerstone of your becoming a true strong one," Meng Lao continued, "Next, you will also receive the true inheritance of the Primordial Soul Secret Method."

"The true inheritance? What about the previous one?" Xiao Yu asked, puzzled.

"Those were merely the basics within the basics," Meng Lao said, not at all embarrassed. (End of chapter)
