The Main God Codex, something written by the Main Gods themselves!
Naturally, the final say belonged to the Main Gods!
That pleased Tang Chuan somewhat. If other Main Universe creatures or civilizations violated the Main God Codex and flagrantly abused prohibited weapons, they would inevitably face severe punishment.
The Main God Codex showed no mercy. Once violated, it would carry out a Dimensional Reduction Strike. No matter which dimension or Timeline the offender was in, they could not escape the Codex's punishment, which represented all supreme authority.
But he himself was a Main God!
What could the Main God Codex do to him?
It could not possibly act against its own creator!
Main Gods themselves stood above all things and could not be judged by anyone, not even other Main Gods.
No matter how great a taboo they violated, so long as they did not shake the core interests of the other Main Gods, even the boundless Universal Rules could only turn a blind eye.
There was no way to punish them.
Of course, that did not mean Tang Chuan could do whatever he wanted.
First, he was currently a complete weakling, without even the qualifications to violate a supreme taboo.
Second, he could not recklessly abuse his status as a Main God. Once or twice might be fine, but if it happened too often, it would naturally draw the attention and suspicion of other Main Gods. That would be extremely detrimental to Tang Chuan's situation.
Still, there was nothing wrong with occasionally taking slight advantage of his supreme status and enjoying a little privilege...
And it was not just him. The information in his mind told Tang Chuan that nearly every one of the Ten Supreme Deities occasionally made little alterations to the Main God Codex over the endless years.
For example, they might have a subordinate help complete a task, but that task could violate one of the Main God Codex's clauses and trigger its Dimensional Reduction Strike.
At such times, as long as the clause was not too serious, the Main God would secretly alter the Codex for convenience's sake...
Mm, once the subordinate had finished the task, they could quietly change it back.
Could a Main God's affairs be called wanton misconduct?
Don't joke around, my friend. Whatever a Main God did was the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, an absolutely correct and established rule that could not be questioned!
Anyone who questioned it was a heretic!
They would be thrown into the Chaos Storm!
Naturally, the Main Gods all knew about the occasional little tricks of their peers.
But so long as they were not too serious, none of them would object. After all, they did the same thing themselves!
It was enough for everyone to understand without saying anything.
Tang Chuan gathered his thoughts and smiled. "You're right, Quintessa. Main Gods are supreme and eternal, above all things. Naturally, they cannot be judged by a Codex they created themselves."
Tang Chuan had nothing to hide from Quintessa. From her birth to her destruction, she could only ever be loyal to him alone.
Unless someone else's Divine Core attributes surpassed his own, perhaps they could alter the attribute he had bestowed upon Quintessa, known as "absolute loyalty."
And that was naturally impossible. Therefore, no matter what happened, even if she faced annihilation, Quintessa could never reveal his secret.
In a sense, she was merely an extension of his own thoughts. Altering Quintessa's mind was equivalent to altering his own mind, which in turn was equivalent to altering a Main God's mind.
Nothing could accomplish that. Mm, this was also one of the highest taboos written into the Main God Codex.
Quintessa smiled as well. "Then, Master, the room we have to operate in is truly limitless."
Tang Chuan waved his hand. "Don't think about tampering with the Codex unless absolutely necessary. By the way, you said humans in the Main Universe mostly resemble the aliens I remember, strange and varied in every possible way. Are there any low-level civilized planets with genetic sequences and thought patterns extremely similar to mine?"
Quintessa replied, "I checked. There are, but they are very far away from us. Moreover, even the lowest-ranked among them are Seventh-level civilizations. I do not recommend that you explore them for now, Master."
Tang Chuan fell silent for a while before saying, "What I truly yearn for is returning to Azure Star. Quintessa, tell me, is there a way to return?"
Quintessa hesitated briefly. "There is, naturally. At present, there are two feasible methods that can allow a Main God to return. One is to seek help from the God of Truth and Order—mm, your friend Meatball.
"The other method requires only that you, Master, grow powerful quickly. As long as you become strong enough, you can naturally traverse the boundless universe and resonate with the place where your bloodline originated. At that point, there will be countless ways for you to return to your homeland immediately."
Tang Chuan shook his head regretfully. "Discard the first method. In Meatball's mind, no matter how weak I become, I could not possibly forget where my home is. Even if this incarnation of mine is so Mortal, my incarnations who are deities could still immediately send me back.
"That would arouse his suspicions. Meatball... he is truly friendly, but deep down, I know that friendliness is directed toward the true God of Calamity and Terror.
"Perhaps I can now be called a true Main God as well. After all, the Divine Core is proof of a Main God's identity, not memories!
"But I don't dare gamble on it. What if Meatball gets angry and erases me?
"So let's discuss the second method, Quintessa. To what level must my life form evolve before I can connect the infinite universe and resonate with the place where this body's bloodline originated?"
Quintessa hesitated. "There is no fixed answer. It depends on each powerful creature's inherent attributes. Some creatures are not considered powerful under the Main Universe's worldview, yet can easily accomplish this through their bloodline talents. Others can only achieve it after becoming deities.
"If I must give you an answer, Master, then once you reach approximately the Demigod level, you will most likely be able to resonate with the universe where Azure Star is located."
Tang Chuan frowned. "Demigod? What kind of level is that? Draw up a panel for me showing the Main Universe's life-level classifications."
"Understood."
Before her words had even faded, a tangible holographic panel appeared before Tang Chuan.
It recorded densely packed data that stretched beyond sight, all of it names for the Main Universe's tiers of life.
Tang Chuan swiped upward again and again, yet still could not find the end. With a headache, he said, "Quintessa, exactly how many levels of classification do Main Universe creatures have?"
Quintessa pondered for a moment. "Based on big-data analysis, I compiled this comprehensive data by combining the classification systems of several first-level civilizations.
"There are roughly 35,621 biological tiers in the Main Universe. Every advancement in level grants the creature itself an increase in superhuman abilities."
Tang Chuan was dumbfounded.
More than thirty thousand levels of cultivation realms?!
And Demigod did not sound like a title that a creature could attain easily.
Wouldn't I have to wait until pigs flew?
