Chapter 504: The Big Bang

“Coming, coming.”
Raymond muttered under his breath. He looked very nervous. It was not just Raymond. Beside him, Long Wu and Yu Jing were also very nervous. They were staring intently at the distant cosmic membrane.
Unfortunately, the situation a light-year away could not be seen with the naked eye. Even mental power could not extend to an area one light-year away. Only those who could become a Grand Emperor or whose mental power had undergone a metamorphosis could see the situation a light-year away.
However, according to the time now, the Big Bang should have already begun. This date was not fixed, nor was it something that could be casually stated. Instead, the pinnacles of existence in the universe had joined forces to deduce the time of the Big Bang.
“Listen, there seems to be the sound of tides.”
Suddenly, everyone listened intently. Indeed, they seemed to hear the sound of tides from afar. Could it be the cosmic tides?
Lin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. The cosmic tides were invaluable to his Law of Tides. It could only be chanced upon by luck. If he could see the cosmic tides with his own eyes, perhaps he could also gain new insights into the Law of Tides.
As time gradually passed, the sound of the “tides” became louder and louder. Finally, they rumbled like a deluge, deafening and shocking everyone.
“Get ready. The Big Bang is really here!”
Raymond’s expression was solemn. They had already waited too long for the Big Bang. The other cultivators were the same. All of them were very nervous.
Lin Feng finally saw it too. A pitch-black “tidal wave” had appeared in the distant universe. It surged over like a volcanic eruption, rumbling as it impacted everything. It appeared as if no power was capable of resisting it.
In the face of such power, forget about advanced planetary lifeforms, even a Grand Emperor would not be able to resist it. Even a Divine King struck by the power of the Big Bang would wind up dead if they resisted it by force.
It was not like such a thing had never happened before. There was once a Divine King who wanted to use the Big Bang to temper his combat body. The outcome was indeed very effective, but the problem was that it was too effective.
The Divine King was struck by the power of the Big Bang. His combat body only lasted for the span of a breath before it was overwhelmed by the terrifying power of the Big Bang, and reduced to ashes.
A dignified Divine King had fallen, just like that.
From then on, no one thought of resisting the Big Bang anymore. Even the Divine Kings did not dare to. The Big Bang was mighty and impossible to resist.
This was the first time Lin Feng had seen the Big Bang. Black tides crashed over like ocean waves. There were actually some planets within a light-year of the cosmic membrane, but they were all barren planets.
However, no matter how huge the planet, all of them were reduced to ashes in the face of the impact of the Big Bang. There was even a black hole. Lin Feng had specially observed it. The black hole was not considered small, and was devouring everything.
However, as the power of the Big Bang shook the universe and swept over, the black hole also disappeared, turning into a part of the black tides.
This was the Big Bang. It represented destruction, cleansing, and also rebirth!
The Big Bang destroyed everything. No one could resist it. At this moment, even Divine Kings had to avoid the brunt of it. They could only make plans after the Big Bang had calmed down.
After destruction came rebirth. This was the supreme principle of the universe. The supreme rule of the universe was balance! Destruction and rebirth complemented each other, and everything returned to balance.
Hence, the Big Bang was both a dangerous situation, and a place of opportunities.
This was the first time Lin Feng had seen such a devastating power on such a scale. It was even stronger than the power of a Divine King, because this was the power of the entire universe.
At the destruction of the universe, apart from those universal lifeforms that had transcended the universe, all beings, be it Divine Emperors, Divine Kings, or Venerables, would be destroyed.
This annihilative power contained the Law of Annihilation, and it was the supreme Law of Annihilation of the universe. The tides produced by the Big Bang just now swept through everything. That was also the supreme Law of Tides of the universe. All of it was the essence of the universe!
Lin Feng took in the true essence of these two Laws hungrily, committing this scene to memory. In the future, whether it was with the aid of the Sacred Stone of Anathema, or comprehending them himself, he would actually be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort.
This could also be considered Lin Feng’s first gain after coming to the Big Bang.
As the impact of the Big Bang swept over, everything within a radius of a light-year fell within its impact, and was under continuous impact.
However, Lin Feng and the others did not retreat anymore. They were all under the impact of the aftershock of the Big Bang. After traveling for a light-year, the power had actually already been diminished by 99% by the point it reached Lin Feng and the others.
However, even with 99% of its power diminished, it was still rather terrifying. It was completely impossible to resist it without using the combat body.
Boom.
Lin Feng, Raymond, Long Wu, and Yu Jing all deployed their combat bodies.
Among them, Long Wu’s combat body was the strongest. Lin Feng’s 200,000-kilometer combat body looked tiny. It was a little “disharmonious” next to Raymond and the others.
“Your Highness Lin Feng, how do you feel?” Raymond asked in a low voice.
“I’m fine. There’s not much pressure.”
Raymond heaved a sigh of relief. He was the one who insisted on inviting Lin Feng to the team. Even though the battle between Lin Feng and Long Wu had already proven Lin Feng’s strength, which was even stronger than himself and Yu Jing, without actually experiencing the Big Bang itself, it was hard to say if Lin Feng could truly resist the impact of the Big Bang.
Only after seeing Lin Feng’s relaxed demeanor now was Raymond completely assured.
At this moment, apart from Raymond and the others, a large number of cultivators had already withstood the impact of the Big Bang, and were preparing to search for new substances.
Raymond made a prompt decision. “This is only the first explosion. The Big Bang lasts for a very long time, as long as centuries. Moreover, the range will continue to expand, and eventually sweep through the range of hundreds of galaxies. Only then can it be called a true Big Bang, shaking the entire universe.”
The Big Bang was not that simple. If it just occurred in the range of a light-year, it would probably be not enough for those Divine Kings to even use their combat bodies.
Right now, the Divine Kings had not entered either, precisely because they were waiting. The time was still too short. The Big Bang had yet to unleash even one ten-thousandth of its energy. How much new substance could there be?
However, things were different for some ordinary cultivators. For this first explosion, if the Grand Emperors did not fight for it, and the Divine Kings did not fight for it, it would be the best opportunity for cultivators who were Venerables like them.
“Although this is already the periphery, there are too many cultivators. Moreover, the new substances all come from the impacts of the cosmic membrane. The deeper we go, the more new substances there are. We won’t fight with them here. We’ll venture in deeper. However, time is limited. We only have three days at most. After that, regardless of whether we find the new substances, we’ll have to retreat!”
Lin Feng had no objections, and neither did Long Wu and Yu Jing. They all followed Raymond’s arrangements.
Hence, the four of them used their massive combat bodies and continued to venture deeper.
