Universe Sea

Biodata

Nature and Structure

• The Primordial Universe was born within the Universe Sea and is insignificant compared with even the limited area recorded on Humanity's most detailed map. 424
• The Sea is permeated by Chaos energy, which can become turbulent enough to disrupt palace treasures and form immense vortex passages. 503
• Unlike the Primordial Universe, the Universe Sea has no universally determinable coordinates. Explorers rely on mapped reference points to establish direction. 424
• Unmapped regions are especially hazardous: teleportation there is forbidden, while even the disappearance of a known landmark can leave an expert permanently lost. 424
• The Universe Sea contains three great perilous lands, whose core regions are major sources of treasures, ancient ruins, and deadly natural environments. 424 464

Powers and Inhabitants

• The three Reincarnation Eras are not unified and are divided into dozens of factions, creating nearly one hundred forces across the Universe Sea. 435
• Any force outside one's own may launch a sudden attack; conflicts can arise over treasures or without any apparent incentive. 433 435
• Strength and treasures determine status. Ancient experts from earlier eras generally possess greater accumulated power than those of the Primordial Universe Era. 435 441

Navigation and Exploration

• Mapped locations permit teleportation only after explorers verify their direction. 424
• The disappearance of the Silver Sand Sea—a former map reference point—caused Lord Jiu E of the First Universe Era to lose his way in the Universe Sea. 424
• Human maps initially covered only a tiny fraction of the Sea, though Xia Zhi later acquired maps compiled from nearly nine hundred experts of different eras. 424 445
• The Universe Sea's Chaos energy can impede or alter the movement of enormous objects; the colossal humanoid entity later identified as containing Jin World slowed drastically after entering its depths. 485 486

Major Locations

Hazards

• The Universe Boat's damaged entrances contain ice blades dangerous even to Universe Masters. 435
• The Endless Abyss inside the humanoid entity housing Jin World can destroy explorers through sudden flames, wind, and other phenomena; even Supreme Treasure Palaces have been destroyed there. 486
• Natural dangers within the three great perilous lands number in the millions, and some can trap Universe Masters who enter carelessly. 433 434
• The Black Stripe Stone Pillar imposes extreme willpower pressure; regions beyond a certain point can only be entered by those with willpower at the level of a Universe's Strongest. 443

World Beast Calamity

World Beasts are lifeforms born from the Universe Sea whose purpose is destruction. They seek to destroy miniature universes and ultimately force the Primordial Universe itself to perish and return to its origin. 479

• The Three Great Ancestor Gods announced that the World Beast calamity threatened the entire Universe Sea and that the Primordial Universe's Origin Will would reward those who killed World Beasts. 503
• World Beasts and all life native to the Universe Sea are natural enemies, leaving no possibility of reconciliation. 479
• The emergence of World Beasts prompted factions throughout the Sea to seek Jin World's resources and inheritances to strengthen themselves. 504

Major Events

• The Silver Sand Sea disappeared, eliminating a major navigational reference point and leaving Lord Jiu E lost. 424
• Xia Zhi entered the Universe Sea to temper himself against experts from before the Great Annihilation and explore the Universe Boat. 425 435
• The appearance of the Jin World drew experts from every major faction, though many suffered heavy losses while investigating the colossal humanoid entity containing it. 486
• Xia Zhi activated the Universe Boat's central operating formation, causing it to acknowledge him as master and begin repairing itself. 502
• During the repair, the Universe Boat absorbed Chaos energy across trillions of light-years, shrank from a structure nearly one hundred million light-years long into a warship, and disappeared from its former location. 503
• Xia Zhi's destruction of the Purple Moon Holy Land Universe became one of the most shocking events in the history of the Universe Sea. 500 501
