The moment the four-faced, four-armed Creation God finished speaking, his aura had already filled every corner of the Dream Universe, revealing his ability to exist everywhere in this world. It even seeped into the river of time, reaching back to the universe's beginning and stretching into its many futures.
Within this universe, he was the supreme ruler. He possessed the realm of a Legendary Great Power and the level of an Other Shore being.
He was a projection of Yuanshi Tianzun!
Meng Qi had never expected this. He had never imagined that, with Yuanshi Tianzun hidden away and nowhere to be found, his projected incarnations would gradually separate and become independent, developing minds of their own. More frightening still, though their minds might be incomplete, they all retained the most instinctive desire: to transcend the limits of the universe, descend upon all the heavens, and become the true Yuanshi Tianzun. To achieve this, they needed the one and only Cause of All Fruits in All Heavens and Myriad Worlds. In their eyes, Meng Qi was an enemy to be fought to the death.
Ringing the Kunlun Ancient Bell and altering the layout of Jade Void Palace had let him temporarily escape the notice of the Legendary Great Powers and Zhao Qian, giving him a chance to hide in plain sight and search for the Chaos Green Lotus Seed at his leisure. But it had also delivered him straight to a projection of Yuanshi Tianzun to hear his lecture—like sending a lamb into a tiger's den!
Fortune and misfortune truly did go hand in hand in this world, with the unexpected lurking everywhere.
At that moment, Meng Qi was thankful for only one thing: he was an outsider. In this universe, his past was brief, and he had never been weak.
