Chapter 1443: Sharp Advancement

A figure suddenly appeared in the void—it was Molasar.

Now in his true form, Molasar had two hideous heads, both gazing at the faint outline of a small universe in the distance. His single eyes gleamed with greed: “Finally back again. As long as I devour the origin of a small universe, I should be able to ascend to the second stage’s peak.”

Dark, evil energy spread outward, and countless zigzagging rays rapidly penetrated hundreds of millions of light-years, directly piercing into the void. Then, brilliant beams of light flowed continuously along these twisted rays into Molasar’s body.

“Delightful,” both of Molasar’s heads raised up, clearly satisfied.

Zhenmoshen was perched atop a vast mountain range, its tail coiled around the base of the mountains while its head wrapped around the peaks. Suddenly, its eyes burst open, like two massive burning stars.

“World Beast!” Zhenmoshen exclaimed with alarm.

“The World Beast has finally returned. After disappearing for so long, it has reappeared…” Zhenmoshen’s pair of crimson eyes filled with concern. “Last time, it fled after being severely wounded by Lord Luo Feng. This time, it might not be so simple.”

Zhenmoshen felt both fear and anxiety.

He had no confidence to confront the World Beast. Molasar had targeted Zhenmoshen, who was among the weakest of true gods.

“Divine Eye Sovereign, Nine-Headed Demon Lord, Chaos City Lord, Nine Nether Sovereign…” Zhenmoshen immediately began sending messages out. “The World Beast has appeared, right outside my small universe, devouring its origin.”

The World Beast had returned!

This news spread like a storm across all races of the Cosmic Sea—except for the Zhenjia King and the Qiuyan Ancestor races.

Inside the Virtual Cosmic Sea, within a solitary spatial plane, floated a magnificent palace. At its highest point were two thrones, with over a hundred thrones arranged below on both sides.

This was the Temple of True Gods.

At present, the Primordial Universe was dominated by humanity. Especially during the crisis of the World Beasts, some true god meetings were occasionally held here. The two thrones at the very top belonged to two of the Eight Greats—Lord Luo Feng and Chaos City Lord. Even the Nine Nether Sovereign had to sit at the lower seats.

This showed humanity’s current standing!

“Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” One after another, figures appeared and sat upon the thrones.

At the very top, the Chaos City Lord, wearing a golden robe, appeared and sat directly down, overlooking the others.

“Chaos City Lord,” Jinjiao True God from the Starry Giant Beast Alliance spoke up, “Zhenmoshen’s small universe is being devoured by the World Beast. The World Beast has returned.” Since Jinjiao True God’s true form was a Golden-Horned Giant Beast, he was the one most closely aligned with Luo Feng within the Starry Giant Beast Alliance.

Therefore, Jinjiao True God was the main liaison between the Starry Giant Beast Alliance and humanity.

“Chaos City Lord, the World Beast’s return this time might not be simple. Only Lord Luo Feng can deal with it!”

“Does anyone know if Lord Luo Feng is doing well?”

Voices from the lower seats asked.

The human race’s true gods remained silent. The Chaos City Lord, seated high above, looked down coldly and declared, “Lord Luo Feng is at the most critical moment of becoming a true god. His power enhancement concerns the fate of all races in the Cosmic Sea. Until Lord Luo Feng emerges from his small universe, no one is allowed to disturb him!”

“What about the World Beast?” a voice came from below.

The Chaos City Lord replied coldly, “As for the World Beast threatening Zhenmoshen, let the various true god squads handle it.”

No one raised any objections after that.

After all, everyone present belonged to the Primordial Universe faction. The World Beast would target the First and Second Cycle Eras. Naturally, the Primordial Universe faction wasn’t in a hurry. However, how much Luo Feng could enhance his strength would directly affect their fate. Therefore, they certainly didn’t want Luo Feng disturbed.

Outside Luo Feng’s small universe.

The Primordial Universe faction dispatched numerous Cosmic Lords and many true gods to patrol around Luo Feng’s small universe, forbidding any powerhouses from the First and Second Cycle Eras from attacking the small universe and disturbing Luo Feng.

“Step back.”

“Lord Luo Feng’s power enhancement concerns the fate of all races in the Cosmic Sea. No one shall disturb him.”

“Retreat.”

Faced with the overwhelming force of the Primordial Universe races, the First and Second Cycle Eras naturally dared not object.

Time passed day by day. This time, the World Beast was continuously devouring, unlike previous instances where it only consumed for a day before vanishing.

When about half of Zhenmoshen’s small universe origin had been devoured, a true god squad consisting of twelve true gods finally arrived. As soon as the squad appeared, Molasar immediately used his body-disintegration technique and fled.

Only half a day after escaping.

Molasar reappeared outside another small universe, beginning to devour again.

One place, two places, three places… six places!

Molasar never engaged in battle. Whenever he encountered a true god squad, he immediately fled. Even though he was only at the second stage, escaping was something no one else could stop—except Luo Feng and Nine Nether Sovereign.

“Chaos City Lord, this has already been the sixth place. In just one month! If we let this continue… our small universe origins will become weaker and weaker. Even if we survive the World Beast crisis, our fragile small universes won’t allow us to ascend to the Void level.”

“Shouldn’t Lord Luo Feng’s transformation be complete by now?”

“If this continues, the First and Second Cycle Eras will have no hope at all.”

Including Divine Eye Sovereign, Nine-Headed Demon Lord, Juehe True God, and other overlords, one by one they communicated with Chaos City Lord through transmission tokens. Although they were powerful, no one could stop the World Beast once it decided to flee.

“Enough.”

Chaos City Lord directly transmitted a cold message: “Everyone remember, no matter if only partially devoured or even completely destroyed, even if several true gods perish, absolutely no one is to disturb Luo Feng! Otherwise, you will be at war with humanity!”

As soon as these words were spoken.

They immediately silenced the numerous true gods from the First and Second Cycle Eras.

Unaware of the chaos in the Cosmic Sea, Luo Feng was undergoing the Chaos Transformation within his small universe.

The supreme Chaos Law was slowly transforming, gradually becoming the Ten Fundamental Laws—Time, Space, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Thunder, Light, and Wind. During this transformation, many fused laws like Metal-Space Law and Time-Wind Law also emerged. These fused laws would appear briefly before merging into the operational laws of the small universe origin.

The operational laws of the small universe origin were based on these Ten Fundamental Laws.

They concealed all complex laws.

Only the Chaos Law was missing, because all of this originated from the supreme Chaos Law.

“The Chaos Transformation is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity when one becomes a true god. After this, such a chance will never come again,” Luo Feng thought to himself. In the future, his enhancements would only come through successive leaps in his small universe, never again witnessing the Chaos Law itself!

To master Chaos, even in ancient civilizations, was enough to be called a Saint!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The laws kept transforming.

From pure Chaos Law into the operational laws of the small universe origin, which contained all laws except Chaos Law itself. This transformation occurred within Luo Feng’s universe, and he felt it intensely. He was completely immersed, while his divine projection near the Black Stone Pillar of the distant Cosmic Boat was also rapidly contemplating and comprehending under a millionfold time acceleration.

Luo Feng’s insights were rapidly surging!

Rising at an astonishing rate!

The moment of becoming a true god from a Cosmic Lord was the period of the fastest growth in cultivation. Even many true gods’ insights over one or two cycle eras couldn’t match the brief moment of Chaos Transformation.

Before becoming true gods, they might have only been fifth-stage peak Cosmic Lords. But after becoming true gods, their secret techniques quickly reached sixth-stage peak, seventh-stage, and even eighth-stage!

Before the emergence of the Jinzhi World and the acquisition of ancient civilization inheritance, even the Ax and Divine Eye Sovereign, with their supreme treasures, could only unleash ninth-stage peak combat power, indicating that the secret techniques they could create were only at the eighth-stage peak level. This was the pinnacle of true god power in the Cosmic Sea at that time. Weaker true gods might only be able to create seventh-stage secret techniques.

As for Luo Feng?

He was merely a Cosmic Lord, yet he had forcefully created two eighth-stage secret techniques. How profound was his foundation? At this moment, it was like an extremely arid desert desperately absorbing moisture. All inspirations and insights from the Chaos Transformation were rapidly converted, his divine projection quickly comprehending and recording everything.

His cultivation level kept surging—eighth-stage peak, ninth-stage, ninth-stage peak…

Luo Feng wasn’t even deliberately cultivating secret techniques, yet at this moment, he could casually create tenth-stage secret techniques!

But the opportunity of Chaos Transformation only came once!

Once lost, it would never return!

“Breathing deeply, Luo Feng exhaled slowly. In one eye, there was a hint of endless vortexes devouring like destruction. In the other, blinding golden light like creation itself. He closed his eyes and opened them again, and all strange phenomena vanished.

“The Chaos Transformation is indeed wondrous,” Luo Feng murmured. “Unfortunately, it only happens once!”

“Everything has been set.”

“The transformation is complete, and the operational laws of my universe have been established.” Luo Feng took a step forward and exited his universe origin, arriving in the vast small universe.

With the operational laws set.

The endless chaotic currents within the small universe began to transform, turning into various forces—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Lightning, Light, Time, and Space—and would begin to give birth to land, rivers, and all things… This was the initial stage of the small universe’s birth, its beginning phase.

Even the evolution of the Primordial Universe was divided into stages: birth, beginning, prosperity, decline, and destruction.

The beginning phase required units of hundreds of millions of eons.

For example, Yuanzu’s initial universe had not yet fully evolved when he challenged the Primordial Universe’s will, showing how incredibly long the initial phase of a small universe’s evolution could be.

“With the operational laws established, the subsequent evolution of the universe will naturally follow,” Luo Feng said. “It’s time to return.”

With one step, Luo Feng exited his small universe.
