Chapter 397: Threatening the Will of the Universe
It was a large area of sand.
As soon as Zhao Changkong arrived, he noticed that there weren’t any dangers around and let Luo Heng out. At the same time, he said, “I really can’t resist the explosive force from the collision between the Supreme treasures just now and can only escape into this place.”
He had a helpless smile on his face.
In the face of the aftermath of such power, what could he have done with the power that he had? There was nothing he could’ve done.
“It was really terrifying.” Luo Heng was still in shock. He saw the whole exchange clearly from the palace.
The collision of such powers was more than enough to destroy the heavens and earth. It could’ve eradicated anything and everything in its path. If it wasn’t for Zhao Changkong protecting him, Luo Hong would’ve definitely ended up dead with no remains behind.
“Yeah, it was too terrifying.” Zhao Changkong sighed emotionally, “Brother Jiang has Supreme treasure, so it’s not difficult for him to keep himself safe. We don’t have to worry about him. From here on out, you must remember to follow my footsteps closely and never run off by yourself. Within this Specter Secret Realm, you might be sent off to other dimensions if you take a wrong step. There are various dangers in the Specter Secret Realm. For example, the outside world beings would kill off any other beings of other races if they stumbled upon them. If you can’t kill them, then run. Also, there are a lot of terrifying beasts. These beasts do not possess any wisdom and will attack in a frenzy when they encounter creatures from the outside world.”
Zhao Changkong explained the situation in the Specter Secret Realm to Luo Heng again.
As Luo Heng listened quietly, he separated part of his consciousness at the same time to communicate with the Supreme Order, and left a message to Jiang Ming. “Brother Jiang, Zhao Changkong and I are together, safe and sound. Once you’re safe, please return the message.”
Over on the other side, Jiang Ming carefully examined the crystal that his clone threw at him. Upon closer inspection, his eyes lit up.
The crystal was condensed from a kind of extremely pure and extremely high-quality energy.
‘This is definitely the power of the origin of the universe!’
As Jiang Ming thought about it, he proceeded to throw the crystal into his inner world. It was not absorbed by the World Tree, but was integrated into the world. The crystal was decomposed by the forces of order and converted into the resources of the world.
‘This allows my inner world to actually experience slight improvement!’ Jiang Ming was very surprised.
His inner world had already reached the limits of the small chiliocosm and it was almost impossible for him to improve further for now.
Such a strand of improvement was equivalent to him breaking the limits.
‘This is really a land of treasures!’
Jiang Ming lamented emotionally and rose to his feet.
The roots of the World Tree had already been driven into the ground through both his feet. The roots were embedded deep into the ground and began to swallow the energy from below.
Looking towards the sky, he could see gigantic beasts flying towards him from a distance.
His three clones were standing high above the sky, evoking one special ability after another, slaughtering the ferocious beasts. Their corpses disintegrated and formed streams of air that disappeared into the void. However, various different objects were left behind on the ground.
There were origin crystals, immortal treasured ores, divine weapons and the likes.
Dark clouds swept through the top of his head as thunder began to flash.
One after another, the thunder flashed across like dragons, brewing storms of destruction.
“That’s so petty! I’m just taking some things from you. It’s not even a drop of water in the bucket to you anyway!” Jiang Ming murmured.
Click…
A thunderbolt landed and fell straight onto the top of Jiang Ming’s head. Jiang Ming was rendered speechless. He shattered the thunder strike with just one palm.
Seeing the lightning flash again, he couldn’t help being annoyed.
With a wave of his hand, a long river of Dao vessels appeared. There were Demi-Sage Weapons, Quasi-Sage Weapons, Great Overarching Dao Vessels and the likes, all of which were densely packed and really formed a river.
“Believe it or not, I’ll detonate all of them?” Jiang Ming snorted coldly, and then took out the Supreme Order as well. By slightly evoking the Supreme Order, faint luminance could be seen radiating from it and an extremely obscure aura swept into the surrounding area, “You won’t be able to do anything to me!”
Click…
The lightning flashes, frozen for a moment, before dispersing abruptly.
After a while longer, the dark clouds above his head dissipated while the thunder went into hiding.
Jiang Ming suddenly furrowed his eyebrows.
‘Could it be that the universe gave birth to its consciousness?’
With him absorbing a little bit of the origin, the universe shouldn’t have caused such a big reaction at all.
There were way too many strange treasures unearthed here after all. There were even Supreme Treasures. The energy that he devoured was comparatively very insignificant.
There were also thunders just now. It would’ve been fine if it was just a natural defensive response of the universe. However, for it to dissipate quickly after being threatened was completely unreasonable.
“If the consciousness of the universe is born, how can it be threatened by me? This river of Dao vessels of mine should’ve been insignificant to a universe that can give birth to dozens of Supreme Experts.”
Argh! It was giving Jiang Ming a headache. He thought he should forget and stop pondering about it. Instead, he shall just take advantage of the things here first and talk about it later. After all, there was a saying that a person who doesn’t take advantage of the situation is a bastard.
Jiang Ming was, however, still a little sensible. He didn’t take out the Chaotic World Tree, but instead spread its roots through his feet into the grounds below him.
The World Tree was also a very terrifying existence. Its roots crept deep below rapidly, turning into a black hole as it swallowed the origin of the universe greedily.
The fierce beasts in the distance stopped howling, but still continued to charge at him rapidly. However, just when they got close, these beasts collapsed without even needing the clones to attack. Bulks and bulks of crystal continued to pile up.
“Old brother! Now you’re speaking my language!”
Jiang Ming opened his mouth for a bit and finally smiled as he gave a thumbs up and complimented.
However, he was actually in extreme panic at heart.
‘God damn it! Does this great universe really give birth to its own consciousness?’ Jiang Ming shook his head. Who cared?
The energy crystals were put away and integrated into his inner world, so that the origin of his inner world would be gradually strengthened. Gradually as time progressed, his inner world slowly underwent metamorphosis.
Jiang Ming began to inspect the spoils left after he killed the two Cosmic experts, Jin Diao and Xiang Mang.
Good gracious! Just putting the other items aside, the energy crystals stored in their storage were piled into mountains. Its quality however, was far from being comparable to that of here. The difference was incomparable.
However, they were still useful items and he kept all of them into his inner world to be integrated within.
Far in the distance, a Zerg’s expert descended. As he stood atop thousand meters up in the sky, he gazed into the distance and suddenly discovered that a large number of ferocious beasts were all rushing towards a certain direction.
The waves of loud roars coming from that direction even caused the ground to tremble. Soon after, a mountain that was not far from him suddenly collapsed.
‘The mountain really collapsed! It didn’t recover to its original state?’ This Zerg expert was shocked at first, followed by a feeling of ecstasy.
‘Can it be that a great Treasure has emerged itself? It’s certainly not an ordinary one to be able to set off such a huge ruckus. Can it… can it be a Supreme treasure?’
As such a thought ran through his mind, he was flushed with excitement and turned into a stream of light, rushing over to the scene.
It didn’t take long for him to reach the place and discover that there was a young man of the human race standing midair above a huge pothole. The grounds below his feet continued to collapse. The lake beside him had already disappeared out of sight.
“Human, what happened here?” the Zerg expert asked.
Jiang Ming took a glance at him and ignored him completely. With his hands behind his back, Jiang Ming silently observed the situation here. At the same time, part of his consciousness merged into the World Tree, realizing the changes that it was undergoing.
As for the roots below his feet? It has long since vanished, merged into the void and took root in the ground.
“Human, I’ll ask once more. What happened here? Was a Supreme Treasure revealed here?” The Zerg expert asked again.
A strange expression flashed through Jiang Ming’s face. “Supreme Treasure?”
A loud roar could be heard as a spaceship flew over from the other side.
This spaceship was golden in color. Although it was only around 20 meters long, it gave off a terrifying feeling to the people nearby. As soon as it got close, the spaceship quickly turned into a robot.
This was actually an expert of the Machine Race.
