The hundred-million-light-year-wide Miniature Universe sucked in the surrounding Chaos Airflow, like an enormous, unparalleled vortex. This was the first time Shi Yan had observed his Miniature Universe from the outside.
"Once I get back to the Primal Universe, I'll build a few Universe Passages."
Shi Yan stood outside his Miniature Universe for a moment, then plunged toward the Primal Universe Membrane.
The Primal Universe Membrane was incredibly tough, but anyone who reached Universe Master level could break through it by force, let alone a True God. Of course, if someone wasn't a powerhouse of this Reincarnation Era, then with the Supreme Rules' permission, the Primal Universe could unleash boundless pressure. Never mind a Universe Master—even a Saint-level Existence, or even an ordinary God King, could forget about forcing their way into the Primal Universe.
But Shi Yan was a lifeform of this Reincarnation Era, so entering the Primal Universe posed no obstacle.
"This is... the Primal Universe's suppression?" After returning to the Primal Universe, Shi Yan faintly felt its suppression and rejection.
It was an utterly novel experience for him. As a Natural Beast God, Shi Yan had always been the Primal Universe's favored child.
"It seems even Natural Beast Gods aren't exempt from the rejection of True Gods." Shi Yan smiled wryly.
Beyond the Universe Membrane lay the Space Interlayer, where Shi Yan's God Kingdom had originally been located.
Now that he had returned to the Primal Universe, Shi Yan could teleport around more freely without worrying about the Disaster of Getting Lost.
"Whew."
With a single teleport, Shi Yan left the Space Interlayer and arrived in the normal region of the universe.
If he wanted, all he had to do now was draw on the Minor Universe Origin, break through the Primal Universe Membrane, and use the many Space Fragments in the Space Interlayer to create a Universe Passage leading to his Miniature Universe.
Through a Universe Passage, even a Universe Level lifeform—or a weaker little fellow—could freely travel between the Primal Universe and a Miniature Universe by using a spacecraft or some other means.
Naturally, Shi Yan couldn't just create a Universe Passage in some random place.
He had secretly claimed quite a few Universe Secret Realms in the Primal Universe and built his strongholds there. Those were the best places for him to construct Universe Passages.
"The Monster Race's headquarters, the Demon Ancestor Secret Realm... It should be that way." Shi Yan looked toward the Monster Race Territory.
Like the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters and other such places belonging to the Human Race, the location of the Monster Race's lair was public knowledge.
But to Alien Races, those places were no different from dragon pools or tiger dens. Few dared to force their way in. As a True God—or, rather, a Universe Supreme Being—Shi Yan naturally belonged to the category of "few."
"Monster Beast Progenitor... It's time you paid some interest."
With a wave of Shi Yan's hand, a Monster Race servant appeared beside him. The servant bowed to Shi Yan, then opened a God Kingdom Passage, and the two entered the God Kingdom.
A flash of light shimmered through the void, and Shi Yan and the Monster Race servant appeared in the cosmic space.
In the Primal Universe, Divine Kingdom Teleportation was undoubtedly the most efficient way to travel. Its only drawback was that it could easily expose the location of one's God Kingdom, forcing one to go through the trouble of relocating it after teleporting.
But the servants could take care of such matters, so Shi Yan didn't need to concern himself with them.
After dismissing the servant with a casual gesture, Shi Yan hurried toward the Monster Race's core region, the Demon Ancestor Secret Realm.
This servant had once been an undying member of the Monster Race, and was also King-Rank. As a result, its God Kingdom Passage lay very close to the Monster Race's lair.
"Only about 160 light-years." After reaching True God level, one's mastery of space-time far surpassed that of a Universe Master. Shi Yan specialized in the Path of Time and Space, and no one in the entire Primal Universe could match him in that regard.
"I'll teleport straight there."
With a thought, the white-gold, single-horned lizard appeared above the Monster Race's lair.
"Roar!"
A heaven-shaking roar rang out. Shi Yan took complete control of the surrounding space-time, unleashing his Domain Type Secret Technique, "Chaotic Space-Time." The same move was now a Peak Seventh Order Secret Technique, though it could only display Fifth Order Peak might in the Primal Universe.
"26,422 undying, 478 Universe Venerables, 10 Universe Masters, and... two True Gods." With all of space-time under his control, Shi Yan had a complete grasp of the Monster Race's lair.
"Then... die!"
"Beast God! Stop!"
"You old bastard!"
A cry of alarm and a curse rang out at the same time.
The figures of the Special Lifeform Monster Beast Progenitor, covered in scales, and the Serrated Shell Beast Demon Ancestor Zhen appeared in Shi Yan's sight.
But none of this could stop Shi Yan.
"Eradicate!"
Space-time twisted completely, and different timelines and spatial dimensions interwove. Under the terrifying might, Universe Venerables, undying, and the weak Monster Race members who weren't even undying instantly vanished into nothingness.
A handful of Top Universe Overlords resisted for a brief moment, but then could only watch helplessly as their bodies either withered into bones or were torn into bloody pulp. In the blink of an eye, their divine power could no longer sustain their Divine Bodies, and every one of the Top Universe Overlords perished.
"Bastard!"
Monster Beast Progenitor's speed shot to its limit in an instant. He easily broke through the light-speed limit and appeared before Shi Yan as if by teleportation.
"Die!"
Monster Beast Progenitor's eyes were filled with madness. The tip of his tail gleamed with a metallic sheen: his Peak Supreme Treasure weapon, the Demon Ancestor Drill. Though it was far inferior to a Supreme True Treasure, it suited Monster Beast Progenitor perfectly and was the Supreme Treasure weapon he used most often.
Surging divine power flowed around the Demon Ancestor Drill's tip. It easily tore through the space-time barrier and thrust toward Shi Yan's face.
With that thrust, countless Monster Beasts seemed to howl viciously in his ears, trying to shake Shi Yan's will.
"Trying to shake me? You're nowhere near good enough!" Shi Yan urged the Peak Supreme Treasure Clear Heart Mirror to its limit to stabilize his soul, while complicated Secret Patterns lit up across his white-gold body.
"You're the one who should die!"
The Beast God Hoof met Monster Beast Progenitor's Demon Ancestor Drill head-on.
"Erase!"
For an instant, Monster Beast Progenitor seemed to see the Beast God Hoof before him transform into three hooves. Yet wherever his gaze fell, there was clearly only one.
"Time! Attacks from different points in time, striking my past, present, and future all at once!" Monster Beast Progenitor understood at once. Then he gritted his teeth. "No matter how you target my past and future, your attack is still only Fifth Order Peak. I refuse to believe you can do anything to me!"
"Boom!"
The void collapsed, and time fell into chaos. Everything at the point where the two clashed crumbled into the most basic particles.
Monster Beast Progenitor was blasted backward. He was, after all, a Seventh-Order True God. Though he couldn't unleash his full might in the Primal Universe, his Divine Body was still a Seventh-Order Divine Body. A Fifth Order Peak attack would struggle to damage it.
On the other side, Shi Yan was also sent flying backward. But unlike Monster Beast Progenitor, he didn't try to steady himself. Instead, he traced a strange arc through the air and rapidly closed in on the Monster Race's Universe Masters.
"Monster Beast Progenitor, this is the Primal Universe. Neither of us can unleash more than Fifth Order Peak strength. I can't do anything to you, but... how many of your Monster Race's Universe Masters can withstand my attacks?" Shi Yan laughed loudly, his speed surging to its limit as he quickly broke through the light-speed barrier.
For a True God, the light-speed limit in the Original Universe was nothing. This gave True Gods a major advantage when fighting Universe Masters in the Primal Universe: Universe Masters could only break through the light-speed limit by entering the Dark Universe.
"You dare!"
As soon as Shi Yan finished speaking, Demon Ancestor Zhen cut him off midway and had already drawn close.
Demon Ancestor Zhen couldn't afford to worry about anything else now. Among the Universe Masters present, aside from Meng Cha and Lord of Starry Sky, who were both Fifth Order Peak, the rest were below Fifth Order. Under Shi Yan's Fifth Order Peak attacks, they would probably be killed in just three to five moves.
No matter how great his feud with Monster Beast Progenitor was, Demon Ancestor Zhen wouldn't deliberately hold back at a time like this.
"Zhen Jiao, you little fellow think you can stop me too?" Shi Yan glanced at Demon Ancestor Zhen disdainfully. A silver glow began to ripple across the horn on his forehead.
In the next instant, Shi Yan's speed soared a hundredfold, while Demon Ancestor Zhen's speed instantly slowed a hundredfold.
"Whoosh!"
Shi Yan slipped past Demon Ancestor Zhen.
"Roar!"
Demon Ancestor Zhen roared furiously. His divine power boiled, transforming into countless tiny Strange Beasts. Each one howled at the sky, instantly breaking through Shi Yan's time-based Secret Technique. But it was already too late. His speed was nowhere near Shi Yan's. If he tried to catch up from behind, all he could do was eat his dust.
"You all! Get into the Dark Universe!"
Demon Ancestor Zhen shouted anxiously to the Universe Masters in the distance.
"Demon Ancestor, save me!"
Lord of Mountain Splitting, a Universe Master with crimson eyes and the appearance of a white giant bear, looked panicked—Shi Yan was charging straight at him.
Shi Yan didn't know most of these Monster Race Universe Masters very well, but their performances in "Chaotic Space-Time" were enough to give him a rough idea of their strength.
Fourth and Fifth Order Universe Masters, relying on their Supreme Treasures, had been suppressed by his Secret Technique but were still unharmed. Second and Third Order Universe Masters, however, weren't strong enough.
"Too bad. If I unleashed my full power in the Universe Ocean, even a Sixth Order Universe Master would need a Supreme True Treasure to withstand it."
"Demon Ancestor!" Lord of Mountain Splitting was utterly terrified.
He was only a Second Order Universe Master, just one level stronger than the Top Universe Overlords who had perished in Shi Yan's domain a moment ago. His armor was only a High-grade Supreme Treasure battle armor. At this moment, he was already using everything he had just to stay alive. How could he possibly withstand a direct hit from Shi Yan?
Seeing Shi Yan charge toward him, Lord of Mountain Splitting panicked and rushed into the Dark Universe.
Once inside the Dark Universe, Lord of Mountain Splitting's speed also broke through the light-speed limit. But though both had surpassed the speed of light, compared to Shi Yan, Lord of Mountain Splitting was like a toddler just learning to walk.
What's more, the Dark Universe was a million times smaller than the Original Universe, so the distance between them shrank by a factor of a million as soon as they entered it.
Now, Shi Yan and Lord of Mountain Splitting, who had originally been several hundred thousand kilometers apart, were less than a kilometer away from each other.
For their enormous Divine Bodies, that distance was practically body to body.
"Lord of Mountain Splitting, accept your death."
Shi Yan's gaze was cold. The Beast God Horn on his forehead gleamed brilliantly.
