Old Universe

Pangu Lord had been harmed by divine soldiers from the Outer Domain. No one knew where his true spirit now slumbered, and it would likely be very difficult to find.

Although Qin Heng wanted to ask around, Meng Xing could not give him an answer either.

"What does it look like beyond the universe?" Qin Heng gazed at the sky, his thoughts drifting far away.

The Chaos Sea did not belong to this universe, yet it had caused the deaths of many True Gods within it.

That meant there were things beyond the universe far more advanced than the universe itself. Before them, even True Gods were merely weak creatures—just as Star Lords, who seemed like gods to ordinary people, were as fragile as ants before high-grade Law Treasures.

This world was far greater than he had imagined.

Meng Xing shook his head repeatedly. "We haven't even figured out what lies within the universe. Why think so far ahead?"

On reflection, Qin Heng agreed. He had not even reached the Eternal Realm yet, so why indulge in wild thoughts and seek trouble for himself?

"Brother Meng Xing, thank you for telling me all this!" Qin Heng rose, preparing to take his leave.

Meng Xing stood as well and replied, "No need to thank me. This isn't exactly a secret. By the way, I wanted to ask—what are your plans after this competition ends?"

"Well..."

Qin Heng thought for a moment before replying, "I still don't know what rank I'll achieve after the tournament, or what rewards I'll receive. If Void Ember God gives no further orders, I should first advance to Star Lord Ninth Order, then enter a secret realm to cultivate and seek a breakthrough. If I successfully step into the Eternal Realm... there will be a great battle
