Inside the secret chamber.
Su Heng returned from his Inner World, then rose to his feet with a smile.
After tens of millions of years, he had finally broken through to become an Immortal!
"It's time to see my teacher." Su Heng pushed open the secret chamber doors and took a single step, appearing outside the palace.
There, Mother Ancestor was watching him with a broad smile.
"Teacher." Su Heng bowed to Mother Ancestor.
"Mm, you've entered the Immortal realm?" Though she already knew the answer, Mother Ancestor still asked.
"Yes." Su Heng answered with a smile.
"Very good. You've done even better than I imagined." Mother Ancestor nodded in satisfaction. She was immensely pleased, happy, and delighted.
She had trained more than a dozen disciples. Most of them had reached Marquis-level or King-level, but that was more or less their limit.
Other than her eldest disciple, the rest had almost no hope of breaking through to become Universe Venerables, let alone Universe Overlords or the even greater Universe Lords!
But Su Heng had that hope!
"Su Heng, even I cannot fully gauge your current strength. Perhaps you can contend with a Venerable?" Mother Ancestor asked curiously.
Contend with a Venerable?
Hearing the question, Su Heng did not answer at once. Instead, he began to ponder.
Newly ascended Universe Venerables generally continued using the ultimate techniques they had created at the Immortal level, while their divine bodies were usually around ten million times that of a World Master.
However, after immersing themselves in cultivation for countless years, most Universe Venerables could create pinnacle techniques, and their divine body amplification could reach around tenfold. Not to mention that they could seek treasures to improve their genetic levels.
Most renowned Universe Venerables possessed divine power exceeding one hundred million times that of a World Master!
"If it is an ordinary Venerable, this disciple can contend with one slightly." Su Heng answered truthfully.
His divine body was currently equivalent to 3.3 million World Masters, but if he used Blood Luo Power and divine body amplification, his full-force strike should reach fifty million times the strength of a World Master!
Even if his Law comprehension was somewhat lacking, he should have no trouble contending with some ordinary Universe Venerables!
"So it is indeed so." The smile on Mother Ancestor's face grew even brighter.
Next, as long as she found Su Heng a few decent heavy treasures, he would be able to roam the secret realms of the universe alongside her!
As it happened, she knew of a considerable opportunity within a certain secret realm!
"Cultivate well. After some time, I'll take you to search for heavy treasures. By then, you'll possess true Universe Venerable-level combat power!"
Mother Ancestor reminded him, but she did not say much more.
"Yes, Teacher." Su Heng nodded. Heavy treasures were not particularly difficult for him to obtain now.
"Go build your God Kingdom. If anything comes up later, I'll send you an email." Mother Ancestor waved her hand, dismissing Su Heng.
Seeing this, Su Heng flew away from the palace.
"Go to the Gan Wu Universe Kingdom and build my God Kingdom."
After flying for a while, Su Heng finally stopped. Then, using the Mo Yun Vine token he had prepared in advance, he teleported through the God Kingdom to the border of the Gan Wu Universe Kingdom.
Within the human territory, in the Gan Wu Universe Kingdom, in a desolate starry expanse roughly forty million light-years from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, there was no life whatsoever—only a few barren planets and stars.
Su Heng appeared there in a teleport.
"I'll choose this place." Su Heng spoke softly. A God Kingdom's location had to be unpredictable, and this place was also close to Earth in the future, making it convenient for him to share in its opportunities.
Rip!
With one hand, Su Heng tore open space and stepped into the spatial interlayer.
The spatial interlayer could be divided into thousands upon thousands of layers.
The first layer was the spatial fragment layer.
The second layer was the God Kingdom layer.
The third layer was the spatial torrent layer...
In truth, this classification was made by ordinary Immortals. In the eyes of true super experts, the spatial interlayer was simply one incomparably vast layer.
The closer one was to the original universe, the smaller the spatial fragments. The farther one was from the original universe, the larger the spatial fragments became! The deeper one went into the spatial interlayer... the greater the danger.
At the safest locations, even World Masters could survive. But the deeper one went, the more dangerous it became. In some places, even Universe Venerables could perish!
"Whoosh!"
Su Heng first teleported, directly passing through the God Kingdom layer and entering the spatial torrent layer. Then his divine power erupted as he continued flying deeper.
The God Kingdom layer was where ordinary Immortal Gods placed their God Kingdoms.
But as Immortal Gods grew stronger, they would gradually move their God Kingdoms deeper inside.
The deeper they went, the safer their God Kingdoms would be!
"Spatial fragments two hundred billion kilometers in diameter." Su Heng saw enormous spatial fragments one after another. Some had even given birth to land and seawater within them.
These massive spatial fragments all maintained high speeds as they flew. If one was struck by one—say, a spatial fragment one hundred billion kilometers in diameter—it would be equivalent to being hit by a gigantic continent more than one hundred billion kilometers across. Under such an impact, even King-level and Marquis-level Immortals would be instantly annihilated.
"Not enough. I need spatial fragments at least a trillion kilometers in size."
After murmuring softly, Su Heng continued flying deeper.
Although his Inner World was not as vast as Luo Feng's, after breaking through to become an Immortal, it was still several hundred billion kilometers in size!
Whoosh!
As his divine power erupted, Su Heng dodged a drifting spatial fragment.
One day later.
The spatial fragments Su Heng encountered had all reached diameters of a trillion kilometers, with some even larger!
"This spatial fragment will do." Su Heng made short-range teleports around one such spatial fragment.
After examining it for a moment, he found that its greatest diameter was approximately 1.2 trillion kilometers, while its smallest diameter was approximately six hundred billion kilometers. It was enough to completely merge with his Inner World.
"Establish the God Kingdom!"
Su Heng's divine power erupted as he began drawing upon his Inner World within the endless spatial torrent.
Immediately, the Inner World released an invisible energy that directly locked onto the enormous spatial fragment in the distance.
Hoo~~ A huge world faintly appeared in midair. This world seemed to exist within illusion, within another dimension, and it gradually flew toward the enormous spatial fragment. The spatial fragment also flew toward it.
One was illusory, the other real.
They gradually drew closer.
"Rumble~~~"
The surrounding space trembled, and all the other spatial fragments moved aside.
That faintly visible illusory world gradually merged with the enormous spatial fragment, becoming stable. A real world began to take shape. Moments later... the world that had once seemed illusory completely vanished, leaving behind only an incomparably real world.
That was the God Kingdom!
Whoosh!
With a step, Su Heng teleported directly into the God Kingdom.
The God Kingdom was vast and mighty, filled with endless divine majesty, while its boundaries continued expanding outward.
"Divine hall! Rise!"
As Su Heng's words fell, vast quantities of divine power gathered, and a towering divine hall gradually took shape.
This was a divine hall radiating intertwined green and black light, suffused with the dense aura of the Law of Wood.
The top of the divine hall was shaped like a sharp point. The instant it took form, it naturally became the core of the entire God Kingdom.
