Background / History

The Original Universe has passed through countless cycles of destruction and rebirth. The accumulated birth and death of these cycles gave rise to its Origin Will, a fleeting but omnipresent consciousness that follows the supreme rules and maintains the stability of both the Original Universe and the Universe Sea. Its power is stated to exceed even the combined might of the Universe Sea’s strongest beings. 159

It is the largest known celestial structure in its region, larger than Miniature Universes and the three great forbidden zones. Its inhabitants ultimately face its recurring destruction–rebirth cycle; to survive, powerful beings must leave for the Universe Sea and rely on their own Miniature Universes. 261

The Origin Will regarded the human race with prejudice following Primal Ancestor’s attempt to soul-possess the Original Universe. It suppressed Primal Ancestor when it found an opportunity, though it could not directly attack native lifeforms without a basis permitted by the supreme rules. 173 346

During the World Beast crisis, the Origin Will repeatedly sought Luo Shen’s aid through the Ancestor Gods. It feared both World Beasts, which could devour its origin and potentially destroy it, and exceptional geniuses capable of attempting soul possession. 349 389

Luo Shen ultimately agreed to address the World Beast calamity in exchange for access to the universe’s core, allowing his Water Spirit Ice Crystal Clone to remain there and study its destruction and rebirth. 425 When the Original Universe entered its Great Destruction, Luo Shen used this position to contest the Origin Will directly. 442

Luo Shen first seized one percent of the complete universe origin, then gradually eroded the Origin Will’s authority with the Mind’s Eye Saber, Divine Eye Secret Technique, Lie Yuan Technique, and the Lord of the Abyss Clone’s devouring power. Once the Origin Will’s share fell below half, Luo Shen defeated it and gained complete control of the origin. 443 The former Origin Will conceded the Original Universe to him, after which Luo Shen entered seclusion to digest the insights gained from possessing it. 444

Nature and Function

• The Origin Will is normally invisible yet omnipresent; it reveals its terrifying power when a being attempts to soul-possess the Original Universe. 159
• It maintains the Original Universe and Universe Sea according to supreme rules rather than acting freely. 159
• It nurtures native lifeforms before they become True Gods, granting breakthroughs, Divine Power descents, clone talents, innate secret techniques, and abilities such as Control of Space-Time. 297
• The Origin Will’s attitude changes once a lifeform becomes a True God: further energy is no longer bestowed, and the new True God must depend on their own Miniature Universe. 421
• It cannot proactively attack beings born within the Original Universe unless a permitted opening exists under the supreme rules. 346

Abilities & Authority

Origin Bestowal

The Original Universe supports the growth of lifeforms it nurtures.

• Grants Divine Power descents during major breakthroughs, though the duration and amount absorbed vary by realm and individual ability. 249
• Bestows powerful innate secret techniques upon lifeforms that reach the Perfect Life Gene Level. 297
• Grants Universe Lords the ability to Control Space-Time inside the Original Universe; this authority is lost outside it. 297
• Provides True Gods limited privileges, including rules yielding under normal circumstances. 283 297

Suppression and Rule Enforcement

The Origin Will restricts power that threatens the balance of the Original Universe.

• Suppresses True Gods who unleash full strength within the Original Universe, especially when fighting Universe Lords. 283 297
• Limits True God Divine Power to the equivalent of a Universe Lord with a 10,000-times Life Gene Level and restricts secret-technique output to Sixth Order combat power during such suppression. 297
• Reclaims bestowed clone talents, innate secret techniques, and Control of Space-Time during a True God’s combat suppression. 297
• Punished Luo Shen when his attack exceeded the Sixth Order Peak limit within the Original Universe, binding his Abyss Battle Saber with golden chains and weakening his strike. 347

Cosmic Origin

The Original Universe’s origin is the foundation of its power and continued existence.

• World Beasts can devour its origin; excessive loss can force it back into a primordial state and long slumber, potentially allowing a new Origin Will to arise. 349 518
• During its Great Destruction, the entire universe transforms into origin, exposing the Origin Will completely while making it vulnerable to soul possession. 442
• Luo Shen’s seizure of one percent of its complete origin gave him a foothold from which to consume the remaining authority. 443

Relationships

• Luo Shen — Former adversary and eventual controller. Luo Shen negotiated access to the universe core, defeated the Origin Will during the Great Destruction, and soul-possessed the Original Universe. 425 443 444
• Primal Ancestor — A feared human genius previously suppressed after attempting to possess the Original Universe through the Virtual Universe. 159 348
• Three Great Ancestor Gods — Representatives and messengers of the Origin Will, tasked with conveying its demands to Luo Shen. 423 425
• Two-Faced Ancestor God — A principal intermediary who warned Luo Shen of the Origin Will’s concerns and relayed its requests regarding World Beasts. 349 389
• World Beasts — Existential threat; a mature World Beast King can devour the Original Universe’s origin and endanger the Origin Will itself. 349 404

Great Destruction and Soul Possession

At the end of the Original Universe’s cycle, Luo Shen exploits the exposed origin space to battle the Origin Will. He captures its authority in stages and finally takes complete possession of the Original Universe. 442 443 444
