Giant Axe Secret Realm (Yanguang Secret Realm) - Dongyuan Planet

At the dawn of the reincarnation era, life was still ignorant at its inception, and both technology and cultivation techniques were just beginning to develop.

Various secret realms, star sectors, star fields, and even ordinary star systems within the Primitive Universe could be in a state of complete isolation from the rest of the world.

Occasionally, powerhouses below the World Lord level would rely on their formidable physical bodies to forcibly traverse the cosmos, yet they could never travel very far...

Dongyuan Planet, a peculiar and massive planet nurtured within the Giant Axe Secret Realm, had been shrouded for countless years in dense mists of cosmic origin, allowing various powerful races to flourish upon it.

There were humans, whose physical talents were slightly inferior but who possessed excellent comprehension; the Light-Deriving Snake Race, who excelled in soul attacks; and the Northern Rock Race, whose powerful bodies were composed entirely of strange stones...

Ordinary star fields could at most give birth to solid planets with a diameter of 30,000 kilometers (Earth distance unit, approximately 0.001 cosmic standard medium distance units). Theoretically, they could be larger, but it was difficult for life to emerge on them.

However, the unique environment of the Giant Axe Secret Realm allowed Dongyuan Planet to reach a staggering diameter of 1,000,000 kilometers.

The powerful gravitational binding force firmly pinned those of the Earth Rank (Planet Rank) to the ground, allowed those of the Flying Star Rank (Star Rank) to only float briefly, and only those who reached the Sky Rank (Universe Rank) could fly freely...

In the low orbit of Dongyuan Planet, several high-tech spaceports had been constructed, with countless spaceships coming and going, appearing quite prosperous.

Among the various peculiar celestial bodies nurtured by the cosmic secret realm, the rule of small objects orbiting large ones still applied.

Dongyuan Planet and several other celestial bodies, some shaped like continents and others of bizarre forms, orbited a powerful black hole.

Clearly, the civilization of Dongyuan Planet had already flown beyond its atmosphere and was active among the celestial bodies within the gravitational range of the central black hole.

Following the birth of the first Marquis-level powerhouse of the Light-Deriving Snake Race, Yanguang Marquis, who had mastered an immortal body.

The ruling status of the Light-Deriving Snake Race on this planet was cemented, as they became subordinates to Kuangque Venerable, one of the most powerful natural special lifeforms in the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

After killing the few ordinary Immortal Gods that the humans and the Northern Rock Race had left on Dongyuan Planet, they were prepared to completely annihilate the two races, only to be casually stopped by Kuangque Venerable.

He had once received favors from the supreme being Mountain Sitting Guest and knew of the care Mountain Sitting Guest held for humanity...

The three races had been in constant conflict on this planet, having long ago forged deep hatreds just like the peak races of the Primitive Universe in later eras.

Yanguang Marquis could only stop after wiping out the Northern Rock Race, instead compressing the living environment of the humans and forcing them to mine the Dongyuan Stone—a specialty of Dongyuan Planet—to offer to the Light-Deriving Snake Race in exchange for survival resources.

He used the resources obtained from wiping out the Northern Rock Race and others, as well as the exploitation of the humans, to slowly cultivate the younger generation of his race.

Yanguang Marquis was not stupid; venturing out might win more benefits for his race, but as the sole pillar of his people, if he were to accidentally fall, the Light-Deriving Snake Race would be finished.

As for why Kuangque Venerable agreed to the Light-Deriving Snake Race's submission, it was not because he coveted their meager offerings, but because he wanted to study the innate secret patterns of the Light-Deriving Snake Race, hoping to gain inspiration that would aid his own cultivation.

Outside the Dongyuan Planet spaceport, a crocodile-shaped spaceship appeared abruptly, yet the planet's external defense systems and the various ordinary spaceships passing by seemed completely unaware.

The doors of the flying palace opened, and a powerhouse wearing bright silver armor, but carrying no other protection, flew out.

He had a long, serpentine body, while his upper body was that of a human. A purple beard hung down, and his eyelids drooped slightly.

An invisible pressure radiated from his body—a pressure that could make all weak existences tremble and submit involuntarily.

The Snake-Person scanned the entire Dongyuan Planet, observing for a long time as if confirming repeatedly, until a look of joy finally appeared on his face. He gently brushed the World Ring on his hand and pulled out a token with a simple and majestic design.

He sighed helplessly to himself: "My teacher was only willing to give me a G-Grade Spaceship fused with an immortal metal lifeform, yet the communication token he gave me so casually is a treasure-level item. It's just absurd..."

Through the token's communication, about ten minutes later (Earth time, approximately 230 cosmic elementary time units).

A blinding light ignited in the void several hundred meters in front of the Snake-Person powerhouse, instantly spreading out to cover the surrounding several kilometers of cosmic space.

He vaguely saw, deep within the blinding light, a magnificent golden palace—the very palace of the God Kingdom belonging to the soul slave of his teacher, Winged Snake Venerable.

A simple yet powerful treasure-level flying palace flew out from the golden beam of light transmitted from the God Kingdom, and two powerhouses stepped out from it.

One was also of the Snake-Person race, but his aura was a thousand times more powerful, and his purple beard was even more luxuriant.

The other, who looked like a Lizard-Man with a long tail, bowed to the two Snake-Person powerhouses before turning back into the golden beam of light, which then vanished along with him.

The first Snake-Person powerhouse bowed to the newcomer and said, "Disciple 'Puti' pays respects to Teacher."

Puti stepped forward as if to claim credit: "This secret realm planet, known as Dongyuan Planet, has been confirmed as a native celestial body from the birth of the Primitive Universe. I have already sent the specific data to Teacher."

"As for the human branch on the planet, they have been confirmed as native lifeforms born on the planet.

I checked all relevant information on the planet's internet, and Dongyuan Planet has been in a state of multi-race hegemony since the beginning of life."

"This branch of humanity is derived from the ape-man genus; they have been driven to near-extinction multiple times, only to be reborn in the unique environment of the planet. There are more than a dozen other similar organisms, all of which are now extinct in the current era, leaving only the three races standing..."

"It is just that in this era, the Light-Deriving Snake Race has produced an existence suspected of having the strength of a barely-qualified Marquis, while the other two races are currently in a state of extreme suppression and could perish again at any time..."

Puti chuckled after finishing: "Being Planet Rank at adulthood makes them a Class A species, right? With my previous contributions, can you upgrade my spaceship again? The Giant Axe Secret Realm is much more dangerous than the ordinary star fields of the past!"

Cosmic secret realms were either rich in powerful origin energy or contained dangerous places with many treasures. Compared to the vast ordinary star sectors, they were more favored and occupied by the powerful natural special lifeforms born at the beginning of the reincarnation eras, making them indeed much more perilous.

Winged Snake Venerable finished reviewing the complete data sent by Puti and nodded: "Not bad!"

He then glanced sideways at his disciple: "You are already a King-level powerhouse who has mastered space teleportation, yet you still have no sense of decorum!"

Puti restrained his smile: "Teacher is right to reprimand me!" He then continued to look at his teacher with anticipation.

Winged Snake Venerable looked helplessly at his prized disciple: "Even with this Class A contribution, your points are still far from enough, but..."

Puti's expression had dimmed at the first half of the sentence, but upon hearing "but," hope flickered in his eyes again.

Winged Snake Venerable paused for a moment before continuing: "However, that existence might come in person this time... You must perform well. If you can catch his eye, it will be your greatest fortune! Remember, be respectful and maintain proper etiquette!"

Puti was both shocked and delighted: That existence? He then replied with a solemn expression: "This disciple will keep it in mind!"

The two stood in the starry sky for a long time, and without any movement, an endless aura suddenly descended.

A towering old man, over 900 meters tall, slowly manifested a few hundred meters in front of them.

He wore seemingly ordinary cyan armor, and there were transparent horns on his forehead.

Winged Snake Venerable bowed and said: "Servant Winged Snake pays respects to Master. Following Master's orders, my Snake-Person Race has patrolled the Primitive Universe for over twenty epochs, and I have found another Grade A native human location for Master..."

He then briefly introduced the situation of Dongyuan Planet to the towering old man.

The laws of the universe origin, I can no longer sense the laws of the universe origin. Puti, who was bowing respectfully to the side, was suddenly shocked.

How is it possible to be unable to sense the laws?

When a powerhouse cultivates, they do so by sensing the laws of the universe origin; the clearer the sensing, the faster the cultivation.

Within the range of this super-existence's life aura, even the laws of the universe origin had to retreat.

Is this the power of an existence even greater than my teacher? Puti's heart burned with fervor.

The towering old man admired the beautiful Dongyuan Planet, a trace of imperceptible joy appearing in his cyan eyes.

He glanced at the respectfully bowing Puti, casually took out a palace-type treasure, and sent the ecstatic Puti away.

"You summoned me here directly, not just because of this Grade A human, but also for your little disciple, right?"

Winged Snake Venerable was quite candid, bowing again: "I dare not deceive Master!"

The towering old man said meaningfully: "I know your thoughts. I am searching the entire universe for humans with potential, and you hope the Snake-Person Race can also benefit from it."

"But since you know the power of the Star Tower, you should be able to imagine that what I seek is not limited to this small Primitive Universe, or even the Universe Ocean..."

The towering old man suddenly paused, glanced casually at the calm starry sky, and sneered inwardly: Foolish Origin Will, I am not about to give hints to anyone and let you catch me in the act.

"Get up, Winged Snake. I cannot say too much, but since he is your disciple, I will nurture him a little. It depends on whether he can seize the opportunity."

Winged Snake Venerable bowed again in gratitude. He had already guessed this outcome; if Master had valued the talent of the Snake-Person Race, they wouldn't have had to go to such lengths to search the entire universe for good seedlings.

"Leave a King-level soul slave for me and go. Do not spread my name. Restrain your clansmen from wantonly killing special life forms, and do not enslave the weak tribes that have submitted to you at will. The Primitive Universe is about to become unstable..."

Winged Snake Venerable recalled the Lizard-Man Immortal who had transported him over, left him for Mountain Sitting Guest, and then departed via God Kingdom teleportation...

Born special life forms are incredibly powerful from the moment of their birth. Even if they are not unique in the universe, their numbers are extremely scarce, and they cannot reproduce.

Many are born as Immortal Gods or even more powerful Universe Venerables. At the beginning of the reincarnation era, they ruled the vast majority of the universe's regions.

Some loved peace, while others enjoyed strife, but many coincidentally enslaved weak tribes to serve them, occupying secret realms and dangerous places throughout the universe that were rich in origin energy or treasures.

As for many ordinary star fields, they were left to those servant tribes to multiply at will.

As these weak tribes continued to multiply in the ordinary star fields, a frantic catastrophe that would sweep across the entire Primitive Universe was quietly brewing...
