Garbage Within the Universe

"Ah!"

At that instant, people from various civilizations across the universe screamed simultaneously.

Because in their sight, the terrifying monster was not dissolved like the Pangu Tribesmen after leaving the universe.

Instead, it used its enormous hooks to firmly grip the Universe Barrier.

The reverence for the Pangu Civilization and the joy of personal security vanished instantly.

Especially after that terrifying face appeared, the sense of fear was immediately amplified.

The screams echoed throughout the entire universe.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't rush to explain the rest of the story, but instead let them process the current situation.

Looking at Kog'Maw, who was firmly gripping the Universe Barrier with his six legs, every race in the universe felt a deep-seated fear.

Just as humans are naturally afraid of snakes and insects, this fear is etched deep into the soul.

At this moment, even Kaisha and Carl could no longer remain calm.

They all looked up at the boundless, Unknown Universe.

The Shenhe Civilization divided the universe into the Known Universe and the Unknown Universe.

The Known Universe refers to the region of the universe with stable energy that can be detected by instruments.

The Unknown Universe refers to regions that are energy-scarce and prone to energy disturbances.

Carl and Kaisha originally thought that the reason that area was like that was because the cosmic energy had not yet fully stabilized to form nebulae and galaxies.

But after watching the video provided by Zhu Zhuqing, they understood.

That's not some chaotic zone of cosmic energy at all.

They are the empty areas formed by Kog'Maw having devoured all matter and energy.

It's important to understand that the Unknown Universe encompasses the entire Known Universe.

In other words, Kog'Maw eats into the universe little by little from the outermost layer.

If the Pangu Civilization hadn't sent Kog'Maw out of the universe in time, perhaps the universe as we know it would have disappeared into history long ago.

Everyone felt a chill run through them, a chill that went straight to their core.

Especially when they learned that Kog'Maw hadn't left, but was still stuck outside the universe, their hearts sank.

Suddenly, Kaisha Hexi and other God-level Civilization simultaneously realized something.

The Pangu Civilization drove Kog'Maw out of the universe 10 billion years ago, so it's impossible that no new civilization has emerged in the universe in the past 10 billion years. However, the reality is that no civilization in the universe has existed for more than Hundred Thousand Years.

Once a civilization has existed for Hundred Thousand Years, it's as if a giant hand will erase all traces of that civilization.

It can be said that among the known civilizations that existed more than Hundred Thousand Years ago, they only knew about the Divine River, and knew nothing about anything before that.

The thought of this outcome sent a chill down the spines of all advanced civilizations once again.

"I guess you all understand now. Although Kog'Maw was expelled from the universe, as Chaos Creature, it will not be destroyed by chaos. Moreover, at the critical moment, it grabbed onto the Universe Barrier."

Furthermore, because of its symbiotic relationship with the universe, the universe cannot completely isolate it, and every now and then it seizes the opportunity to absorb some energy from the universe.

"And what do you think it needs most to support such a massive body?"

Seeing that they had calmed down enough, Zhu Zhuqing explained again and raised a question.

"Energy, matter?"

Hexi answered subconsciously.

"Life?"

This is Kaisha's answer.

"Soul!"

Carl looked up, his gaze firm and resolute.

As for why I'm so sure...

"That's right, it's the soul. To support its enormous body, it needs a sufficient soul to strengthen itself; otherwise, it will become a complete beast."

Therefore, only civilizations that have developed to a certain stage in its civilization's development will be attacked and devoured by it.

Upon hearing this, all the civilized people's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

What does this mean? What do you take them for?

Are they domesticated livestock?

"The Shenhe Civilization should have been swallowed up by it in the last Hundred Thousand Years."

However, the development of the Shenhe Civilization surpassed that of the nebula and extended beyond its area of influence, which allowed some of the Shenhe Remnants to live on and gradually influence the entire universe.

To some extent, the Shenhe Civilization made some contributions to the world, because their existence allowed more civilizations to leave their Core Flame.

However, as the Shenhe Civilization gradually spread its technology to every corner of the universe, the nature of the Shenhe Civilization gradually changed.

Zhu Zhuqing's words made the smiles on the faces of the Shenhe Remnants disappear.

"Controlling core technologies, the technologies disseminated all have backdoors, teaching half and leaving half a pit, interfering with the development of civilizations, forcibly reversing the development direction of all civilizations, and guiding them towards Gene Technology no matter what direction they are suited to develop in."

And they even attempted to establish internal and external connections to bring in Kog'Maw.

As Zhu Zhuqing spoke, her gaze swept over the remnant of the Shenhe Civilization and Carl.

Carl gave a wry smile; he knew he would be called upon.

His belief in the void stemmed entirely from his chance discovery that life actually existed within the so-called void.

Furthermore, that being was supposed to guide him on how to develop into Phantom Body, but now it seems that it wasn't guidance at all, but rather an attempt to fatten him up and then devour him whole.

The so-called Void Descent that ushered in the Void Era may simply mean the return of Kog'Maw.

So he really is a traitor of the highest order.

Carl wasn't the only one panicking; the Triangle Body were also in a panic. They felt that their development seemed to have deviated from its course, and it looked like they were heading in the direction of becoming food for others.

However, now everyone is even more curious about Zhu Zhuqing's identity, and why she told them all this?

"You can now put aside the dangers beyond the universe; I have already taken care of Kog'Maw for you."

Zhu Zhuqing waved her hand, and the scene of her slaying Kog'Maw with her sword appeared before their eyes.

Looking at the sword light that pierced through the universe, the memories of all the God-level Civilization began to surface. Thirty thousand years ago, there was indeed a beam of light that pierced through the universe.

However, for some reason, they all forcibly ignored this matter later, and the computer never reminded them.

Seeing this, everyone's estimation of Zhu Zhuqing's strength rose again.

This is terrifying; it's impossible to observe her, and you can't even remember anything about her if she doesn't want to.

However, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they thought that the terrifying Kog'Maw was finally dead.

It felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from my heart.

Among them, the God-level Civilization were the most relaxed.

The culprit who threatened them has been beheaded, which means they no longer need to live in fear of the Void Terror.

Kaisha also breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, there's no need to worry about the Angels' Hundred Thousand Years Great Limit.

"Now that the threats from outside the universe have been eliminated, the reason I called you all here today is quite simple: the garbage inside the universe must also be cleaned up."
