Chapter 1341: The Other Side of the Wormhole

Inside the Tomb-Ling Ship.

Luo Feng’s face revealed a look of shock, his body involuntarily swaying.

“Luo Feng, what’s wrong?” the Chaos City Lord immediately noticed Luo Feng’s unease.

“The clone of the Mosha Clan I sent in perished,” Luo Feng answered bluntly, though inwardly, he shuddered with fear. It was utterly terrifying. Even in perilous locations like the Cosmic Vessel or the Qing Feng Realm, where threats couldn’t be detected, at least the scouting domain would display a ‘vacuum,’ signaling an unobservable area. This would allow Luo Feng to recognize the danger ahead.

But earlier, his domain spread out normally, everywhere scannable.

In that state, he was killed! His peak palace treasure was silently shattered! Even the energy from the ‘Yuan’ of the Murder Wu Wings needed to forcefully cleave through a peak palace treasure, yet it couldn’t achieve such silent destruction.

“Perished? How did it perish?” the Chaos City Lord pressed urgently.

“It must have been the wind,” Luo Feng replied.

“The wind?” the Chaos City Lord was astonished.

“I didn’t see it at all, nor detect it,” Luo Feng shook his head. “My domain treasure was functioning normally, everywhere scannable. Then the wind appeared out of nowhere… my peak palace treasure was directly shattered, my divine body also shattered. The Mosha Clan clone just died, not even having time to resist or struggle.”

The Chaos City Lord was stunned. If even a peak palace treasure couldn’t resist, then whoever went there would die? Unless one used an ultimate treasure to fight.

…

A total of eight Cosmic Sovereigns from the Hong Alliance went to explore. Luo Feng entered through the gap in the ‘colossal being’s’ mouth and was the fastest, thus also the first to perish.

The day after Luo Feng’s Mosha clone perished, another Cosmic Sovereign perished.

On the fourth day, two more Cosmic Sovereigns perished consecutively.

On the fifth day, another Cosmic Sovereign perished.

…

Within ten days of Luo Feng’s Mosha clone’s demise, all seven other Cosmic Sovereigns from the Hong Alliance perished, none surviving. This mortality rate chilled the Hong Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereigns to the bone. Even the other three deadly places weren’t this terrifying, were they?

“The Milky Way Lord encountered wind that couldn’t be scouted, wind that appeared out of nowhere. As soon as it appeared, the Milky Way Lord’s peak palace treasure turned to ashes and vanished. Snow Crane Sovereign encountered fire, fire that appeared out of nowhere… as soon as it appeared, it instantly destroyed Snow Crane Sovereign’s top-tier palace treasure. Other Cosmic Sovereigns… ” Inside the hall of the Tomb-Ling Ship, with the last scout Cosmic Sovereign also perishing, the Hong Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereigns were in intense discussion.

Eight, all perished.

Either wind, fire, or mist…

Seven were instantly annihilated, utterly helpless to resist. Only one noticed an endless ‘water flow’ covering the sky and earth. As soon as the water flow appeared, it froze the surrounding space, preventing teleportation escape. As for the water flow itself, it easily corroded the top-tier palace treasure, killing the Cosmic Sovereign inside.

“Everyone,” the Chaos City Lord spoke up.

Instantly the hall quieted down, nearly 200 Cosmic Sovereigns looking at the Chaos City Lord.

“According to the information I’ve received,” the Chaos City Lord said, “not only our Hong Alliance, but all other factions… anyone who entered to explore was plunged into endless abysses.” He continued, “After entering, they couldn’t find any other environment, only endless abysses. Then, in these abysses, they were directly killed by suddenly appearing fire, wind, or other things. Not only peak treasures but even ultimate treasures were destroyed there.”

“Ultimate treasures?” A chorus of gasps filled the room.

“Just received this news,” the Chaos City Lord said. “The Skeleton Race from the First Cycle Era sent an ultimate treasure palace to explore, but encountered flames… it was directly incinerated, unable to resist even for an instant.”

Everyone was shocked.

Luo Feng also felt a sigh of disbelief. Just moments ago, he had been equally stunned upon hearing the news. An Ultimate Treasure Palace, completely incinerated? After all, even some of the mechanisms within the Tomb-Ling Ship, capable of slaying powerhouses who sought refuge inside Ultimate Treasure Palaces, couldn’t destroy the treasures themselves. Yet this colossal entity’s terrifying abyss had annihilated the Ultimate Treasures.

“If even ultimate treasure palaces can’t withstand it, what should we do?”

“This is even scarier than the three deadly places.”

“Everyone perishes, not a single survivor. The mortality rate in the three deadly places isn’t this high.”

The hall was in chaos.

Suddenly, the Chaos City Lord’s expression changed, and he shouted loudly: “Everyone.”

Luo Feng was also surprised, looking at his teacher, as all the experts in the hall turned their attention.

“Just received news,” the Chaos City Lord said. “Several factions from the First Cycle Era have sent experts into the natural wormholes of the endless abysses.” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. Earlier, when he went to explore, he had discovered the natural wormholes very early on but dared not rashly enter, continuing his exploration instead.

It seemed the First Cycle Era was even more anxious, going as far as to enter the natural wormholes, and the results must have been bad, otherwise they wouldn’t have made it public.

“What is at the other end of the natural wormhole?” Snow Crane Sovereign shouted urgently.

Other than Luo Feng, the other seven Cosmic Sovereigns also discovered the ‘natural wormhole’. Whether entering through the ears, nostrils, or mouth gap, they all eventually entered the endless abyss, passing by the huge natural wormhole.

“Entering the natural wormhole!” the Chaos City Lord said. “One will be directly transported to a hidden place filled with chaotic airflows. There, one will find what appears to be an ordinary small universe.”

“A small universe?”

“A small universe?”

Everyone was astonished, and Luo Feng was equally amazed.

The natural wormhole inside the colossal being leads to a place with a small universe?

“Confirmed!” the Chaos City Lord continued. “The hidden space connected by the natural wormhole should still be inside a humanoid creature.” He added, “Moreover, experts from several factions of the First Cycle Era tried every means to explore that small universe. They sent their mechanical puppets, used other methods, and even entered personally… but upon touching the membrane wall of the small universe, they all turned to ashes and vanished.”

“What?”

“The membrane wall of the small universe is this powerful?”

“How is that possible?”

Everyone in the hall of the Tomb-Ling Ship was shocked, even Luo Feng couldn’t imagine it, because the membrane walls of universes are generally not offensive. Like the strongest beings in the universe using their ‘small universes’ to kill enemies, they usually wait until the enemy enters the small universe and then use the essence power of the small universe to kill. To be killed just by touching the membrane wall is too incredible.

…

Perished! Perished! Perished! Perished! Perished! Perished!

No matter how all the factions in the Cosmic Sea explored, all perished without exception. This absolute death outcome frightened all factions.

At least give a glimmer of hope, so that all parties have something to look forward to. But not even a sliver of hope was given, who wouldn’t be anxious?

…

Just when all factions in the Cosmic Sea were anxiously and helplessly hovering around the colossal being…

A message spread — the three Patriarchs of the Primordial Cosmos Patriarchal Church summoned all factions in the Cosmic Sea, to deliver a decree from the Primordial Cosmos’ fundamental will.

“What, the three Patriarchs?”

“Isn’t it true that the Patriarchs within the Primordial Cosmos never leave it?”

“A decree from the fundamental will of the Primordial Cosmos?”

All factions were thrown into an uproar. The Patriarchs, who never entered the Cosmic Sea, had now come, and were to deliver a decree from the fundamental will of the Primordial Cosmos. Whether it was one or the other, it drew the attention of all major factions in the Cosmic Sea. Combined with the setbacks all factions had encountered while exploring the ‘colossal being,’ all factions immediately gathered there…

…

The Tomb-Ling Ship also quickly headed there.

“A decree from the fundamental will of the Primordial Cosmos?” Luo Feng frowned. “The three Patriarchs’ first visit to the Cosmic Sea is for this?”

“There must be a purpose,” the Chaos City Lord said solemnly.

Back when killing the Star Lord Hao Lei, Hao Lei could use a power completely opposite to ‘Divine Power,’ which made Luo Feng very cautious. At that time, he realized… there were definitely secrets in the Cosmic Sea that he didn’t know.

“This colossal being is one of those unknown secrets,” Luo Feng also wanted to know what the three Patriarchs were going to say.

Boom!

One after another, palace treasures rushed to the location, and the Tomb-Ling Ship was among them.

In the void about ten million light-years away from the colossal being’s head, there were three figures in white robes. They stood side by side, each white robe faintly radiating colorful light, while an incredibly powerful, irresistible pressure… emanated from these three Patriarchs, spreading outward.

Outside the three white-robed figures, there were floating palaces, followed by a large number of experts appearing.

At the entrance of the Tomb-Ling Ship, Luo Feng and the others also stepped out one by one, standing in the void, looking at the three white-robed figures in the distance. Luo Feng couldn’t help but exclaim, “What a powerful pressure.” He felt that the space-time within hundreds of light-years around was dominated by these three Patriarchs. That pressure far exceeded any Cosmic Sovereign.

“At this moment, they are the spokesmen of the Primordial Cosmos’ fundamental will,” the Chaos City Lord transmitted mentally. “Their pressure is also the pressure granted by the Primordial Cosmos’ fundamental will to them.”

“Let’s see what they have to say,” Luo Feng also stared intently.

The human faction had no good feelings toward the fundamental will of the Primordial Cosmos, because Yuanzu had been sealed away.

…

As time passed, more and more experts gathered.

The most dazzling figures in this space were naturally the three Patriarchs.

“The three great cycle eras, the two great holy lands, and all major factions have arrived,” one of the three Patriarchs, an elder-looking one standing in the center, spoke slowly. “Then we shall begin. The reason we three entered the Cosmic Sea this time is to comply with the decree of the Primordial Cosmos’ fundamental will, specifically for this colossal being.”

As he spoke, he pointed toward the giant humanoid lying beside them.

“You all just entered, and you could find a natural wormhole. Entering the natural wormhole would lead you to a space. In that space, there is a small universe, that small universe… is the ‘Jin World’!” The elder Patriarch said. “It is also the only place in the entire colossal being’s body where you can enter alive.”
