"The Five-Colored Aurora Lake is the most precious treasure protecting our Ancestral God Sect!"
The venerable elder of the Fei Cang tribe spoke with great pride.
"With this supreme treasure protecting us, who would dare to trespass on my Ancestral God Sect?"
"To be able to witness this most powerful thing in the universe is a blessing."
"Enough of the small talk, let me take you to Bauhinia Island."
After speaking, the Venerable of the Fei Cang Clan teleported away with the two of them.
……
As time passed and things changed, Lin Hao and Yao Rao were now at the very edge of the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, only a few hundred meters away from the dazzling lake water!
Close at hand!
Those magnificent aurora beams, each stretching for about ten thousand kilometers, contained unparalleled power that secretly alarmed Lin Hao.
"Look, there is Bauhinia Island."
The venerable one of the Fei Cang tribe pointed to the depths of the Aurora Lake.
The two gazed intently into the distance, and in the depths of the vast ocean of light, the outline of an island could be vaguely seen, appearing hazy and indistinct under the aurora.
"Come in."
The Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe was the first to fly into the Aurora Lake.
The two followed closely behind and plunged into it without hesitation.
The instant your body touches the aurora...
It's like walking through a real lake; the shimmering light you touch brings an unparalleled sense of comfort.
As they ventured deeper, the distant Bauhinia Island rapidly grew larger in their field of vision.
"Purple Thorn Island is the residence of the inheritors of the Beast God and also the outermost barrier of the area covered by the Five-Colored Aurora Lake."
The Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe explained that the three of them had reached the island's shore.
Bauhinia Island, with a diameter of millions of kilometers, is surrounded by a lightless zone about ten thousand kilometers wide, forming a safe isolation zone.
Swish!Swish!Swish!
Three streaks of light fell like meteors onto Zijing Island; they were none other than the Venerable of the Feicang Clan, Lin Hao, and Yao Rao.
"Palaces... there are so many!"
Lin Hao's gaze swept over them.
In the distance, the land undulates and the mountains meander. As far as the eye can see, countless palaces of different styles are layered upon each other, scattered like stars in the sky.
Many palaces exude an undisguised aura of power.
Behind each aura lies a powerful figure who has cultivated and comprehended the teachings of the Ancestral God Sect throughout its long history.
Only a few hundred people from human groups received the inheritance here.
However, how vast was the primordial universe?
The number of races is countless.
The Ancestral God Cult bestows its legacy upon every corner of the universe.
The accumulation of hundreds of millions of races... its scale is enough to reach hundreds of millions or even more than the number of human inheritors!
In theory, it is not difficult to exceed 10 billion in quantity.
The hundreds of millions of people we see before us are the elite that have survived the test of time.
Many more inheritors have already perished on the journey.
The Ancestral God Cult believes in the supremacy of the strong!
Even those who attain immortality are merely consumables in their eyes; death is insignificant to them.
"Look at the sky."
The Venerable of the Fei Cang Clan pointed to the distant sky.
Lin Hao looked up.
"This is--"
The sky was enveloped in concentric circles of light and shadow.
These halos are constantly being created in the center and rapidly expanding outwards.
When the expansion reaches a certain invisible limit, the outermost halo quietly disappears.
A new central aperture was generated again.
One ring leads to another, rising and falling, just like endless ripples spreading out when a stone is thrown into water.
Birth, annihilation. Birth, annihilation.
An eternal cycle, with no end...
Each halo is woven from a vast and intricate web of laws—
Time, space, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light... and all other fundamental laws permeate each other.
It contains countless profound principles of fusion, as well as many deep-seated laws and patterns far beyond his current understanding, which together outline this almost perfect cyclical trajectory.
Lin Hao's mind was instantly drawn in, completely absorbed in it.
It's so breathtaking! That ever-changing, cyclical ring of laws seems to encompass all the mysteries of the universe.
The apparent rules governing the universe are so vast and profound that they far surpass what he had seen in the primordial universe!
"It's worth it!"
Lin Hao thought to himself.
This trip was very rewarding, even with just this one visit.
"wake up!"
The Venerable of the Fei Cang Clan gave a low shout. Only then did Lin Hao break free from his comprehension.
"This is the outward manifestation of the laws governing the universe."
The Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe gazed up at the torrent of water in the sky with his bronze bell-like eyes.
"Our Ancestral God Cult, occupying the position of the number one power in the universe, shoulders the core mission of maintaining the order of the universe's operation, and is naturally protected by the laws of the universe's operation!"
"Therefore, the Mysterious Realm of the Ancestor, which my sect controls, gathers the most special life forms in the entire universe and nurtures the most abundant rare treasures. Even this Five-Colored Aurora Lake is a gift from the laws of the universe to my sect!"
"To obey the will of my Ancestral God Cult is to obey the laws governing the universe! Anyone who defies it is an enemy of the laws governing the universe itself!"
The Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe spoke with an undeniable confidence.
Lin Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had thought of some deeper connection, but he didn't say anything more.
The Ancestral God Cult is the representative of the primordial cosmic will walking in the world.
This primordial cosmic will has long since developed a vague capacity for self-thinking, transcending the concept of mere rules.
Its actions still need to follow certain fundamental limitations and cannot be reckless.
"Hmph, seems you don't believe me?"
The Venerable of the Fei Cang Clan glanced at Lin Hao.
"After living here for hundreds of millions of years, you will understand."
"Come with me. The first thing we must do is build your dwelling on this Bauhinia Island."
The Venerable of the Fei Cang Clan strode forward, with the two following closely behind.
Strolling on Zijing Island, one's gaze sweeps across the diverse palace complexes in the distance, and also catches glimpses of powerful figures from billions of races across the universe.
Various forms and bizarre life essences inhabit all places, each exuding a powerful aura that cannot be ignored, and special life forms can be seen everywhere.
This scene made Lin Hao's heart beat faster than usual.
If we could collect and analyze the bloodlines and genetic maps of hundreds of millions of inheritors in this land... breaking through the bottleneck of perfect gene multiplication rate would probably be just around the corner!
Even further, it's not impossible to reach the perfect limit of 10081 times and glimpse the mysteries of higher-level genes in advance!
……
During the conversation, the Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe walked to a mountainside beside a winding stream, stopped and instructed: "You shall build a palace here. Remember, the area occupied by any palace shall not exceed one kilometer in length and width."
Even demons and cosmic behemoths with divine bodies reaching thousands of meters in length must shrink their divine bodies to inhabit this space. Without exception!
The two nodded in agreement.
Of all the countless palaces seen along the way, none surpassed this limit.
"also!"
“You can leave a spatial token in your own palace. After that, you can directly arrive here through the divine kingdom’s teleportation.”
"This Bauhinia Island will become your permanent residence for many years to come. Unless... you die and your soul perishes."
"If there are any soul servants, remember that they must never be taken out of the palace grounds!"
The Venerable of the Fei Cang tribe spoke in a serious tone.
"Once taken out, the Five-Colored Aurora Lake will immediately launch an attack to completely annihilate it! If absolutely necessary, it is only permitted to move around within your own palace. Taking servants out of the palace is tantamount to suicide. Of course, vassal life forms, such as plant life forms and metal life forms, are not subject to this restriction."
"clear."
The two listened attentively.
"follow me."
The venerable one from the Fei Cang tribe continued to lead the way.
As the guide, he has the responsibility to inform the new successor of all the basic matters.
Before long, they arrived at the highest mountain range on the entire Bauhinia Island.
At the summit of the mountain stands a magnificent palace that stretches for thousands of kilometers!
"The residence of the inheritor is limited, but the island lord's palace is not subject to this rule."
