Initial Universe

"Was that a true Immortal powerhouse?"

Behind Su Heng, the five human Immortals watched the distant battle in shock.

Even the aftershocks were probably enough to kill them!

"Captain, we should keep exploring the outskirts." Yu Xi walked to Qin Yu's side and spoke with some concern.

To Yu Xi's surprise, Qin Yu agreed.

"Mm."

Yu Xi looked at her captain's face and found that the confident expression that had always filled it now carried a rare hint of desolation.

The battle ended quickly. Under the Four-Silver Clan's two great secret techniques, it was difficult for any Marquis-level Immortal to escape.

Su Heng collected all the spoils of battle, then called out to the five of them.

"Your strength is still too lacking for wandering the central region. It won't be too late to return after you cultivate an undying body." Su Heng looked at Qin Yu as he spoke.

Naturally, he could tell that Qin Yu was a genius among Immortals, with a sliver of hope of becoming a King.

"Thank you for your help, Annihilation Marquis!" Qin Yu nodded and said gratefully.

"It's nothing. We're all human. Since that's the case, I'll be leaving first!" Su Heng said with a smile, waving his hand.

He released his spacecraft and began flying toward the depths of the Shattered Star Belt.

Inside the spacecraft, Su Heng opened the Virtual Universe Company's points store and fixed his gaze on a secret technique worth one hundred billion points.

Shattered Star Body was a body amplification secret technique created by a Universe Lord.

This was the secret technique he intended to purchase for his Four-Silver Clan avatar. After all, the body amplification secret technique he cultivated suited him, but not the Four-Silver Clan.

Shattered Star Body had seven levels in total. The first level provided a twofold amplification, the second fourfold, the third eightfold, the fourth sixteenfold, the fifth thirty-twofold, the sixth sixty-fourfold, and the seventh a hundredfold!

Su Heng naturally could not afford the complete Shattered Star Body yet, but the first three levels cost only ten billion points. After the discount, it would be around four billion.

After accumulating points for ten million years, he had that many. Thus, after thinking for only a second, he purchased the secret technique.

Once he cultivated it to the third level, the Four-Silver Clan's strength could reach 30,000 times the power of a World Master, enough to be considered high-level King-level.

With such strength, wandering the Shattered Star Belt would naturally pose no problem. Even in the second-tier combat zones, it could easily establish itself.

"By then, my true body should head to the Initial Universe to comprehend the laws." After exiting the Virtual Universe, Su Heng thought to himself.

Five hundred years of contemplation had gradually allowed him to find a path.

His avatar would wander the Extraterritorial Battlefield, while his true body would go to the Initial Universe to comprehend the laws!

Although this would be far slower than having his true body study ultimate techniques, and the techniques created by the Four-Silver Clan might not necessarily suit his true body—

It would allow Su Heng to enter the Immortal realm quickly!

No matter how strong a World Master was, a World Master was still only a World Master. Besides, with the existence of his fate, the longer he lived, the stronger his talent would become.

Why risk becoming trapped at the World Master stage?

Su Heng's current plan was to comprehend the eight lower laws and the higher Law of Space. As for the Law of Time, he could only begin comprehending it after breaking through to the Immortal realm.

At most, this would take Su Heng less than ten thousand years. During that time, with his avatar wandering the battlefield, he could still contemplate ultimate techniques and secret techniques!

In other words, within at most twenty to thirty thousand years, he could break through to the Immortal realm!

The Virtual Universe Company headquarters was an endless continent suspended in the starry sky.

Within the flight passage from headquarters to the Initial Universe.

"Your Highness Su Heng, the spacecraft has arrived."

A golden-eyed man smiled as he spoke to the man before him.

"Thank you." Su Heng politely thanked the golden-eyed man, then stepped into the biological spacecraft nearby.

His destination this time was the Initial Universe!

The biological spacecraft soon activated, carrying the personnel bound for the Initial Universe.

The Initial Universe was a Small Universe in the early stages of evolution.

Spatial rifts could be seen everywhere in the sky. Crystalline threads of Law Secret Markings flowed and intertwined around the rifts, struggling to repair them.

They repaired themselves time and again, only to split apart again and again, endlessly repeating...

Chaos City.

It was the only city in the entire Initial Universe.

The biological spacecraft stopped above Chaos City.

Whoosh~

The hatch opened.

Su Heng, dressed in silver armor, flew out through the hatch.

Behind him, the spacecraft hatch closed again, and the vessel departed.

Chaotic airflow filled the air.

Su Heng floated in midair, his gaze complex as he looked at the various buildings around him.

This was his third time entering Chaos City in ten million years.

The first time was when he became a core member of the Virtual Universe Company. On that occasion, he stayed in the Initial Universe for thirty years.

The second time was after his life-and-death training ended. With Mother Ancestor's help, he entered the Initial Universe once more. That time, he stayed for thirty thousand years, but regrettably still failed to break through to the Immortal realm.

The third time was this time.

"Here, I'll begin my path to the peak."

Su Heng spoke softly.

He gently landed on the broad street and looked around. On the rooftops of cultivation residences in the distance, ascetics sitting cross-legged in meditation could be seen everywhere.

World Masters and Immortal Gods were everywhere.

Of course, the overwhelming majority were Immortal Gods.

Just from the auras they gave off, even the World Masters who could cultivate in Chaos City were far stronger than those outside.

Su Heng flew toward the depths of Chaos City. His most urgent task was to find a residence first, then begin comprehending the laws!

After casually finding a building, Su Heng walked up to the pale white door of the cultivation residence and lightly placed his hand on it.

Beep!

The door's sensing system activated and gradually changed color. Moments later, it turned dark gray. From then on, Su Heng was the master of this residence.

He entered the residence.

Every room inside was quite spacious, and there was even a dedicated cultivation chamber. However, most people spent their cultivation time on the rooftop.

Su Heng, who had spent a long time in Chaos City, was naturally no exception. In fact, this was the residence he had chosen during his previous visit.

Among the messy, casual notes carved across the rooftop were traces he had left behind!

"I'll start by comprehending the Law of Water. Of the five elements, only water and earth remain."

Sitting cross-legged on the rooftop, Su Heng looked at the Law Secret Markings in the sky and set his first goal. Then he began comprehending the laws with all his strength.

Of course, aside from comprehending the laws, he also immersed a thread of consciousness into the Virtual Universe.

"Teacher, I've already entered the Initial Universe."

He sent out an email. Since he had come to the Initial Universe, he naturally had to mention it to Mother Ancestor.

"Cultivate well." Mother Ancestor replied with an email very quickly.

Looking at the email, Su Heng smiled faintly.

Don't worry, Teacher. Your disciple is no longer the disciple he once was!

No more getting stuck at cultivation bottlenecks, no more suppressing combat strength. When there was time later, he would carefully revise the earlier chapters; perhaps they would read more naturally then.
