It was common knowledge that the Aberrant Era had originated in the First Era;
This was also information Chu Yuan had unearthed from the Sea of Law Origins.
Because the method of aberrant conversion had been recorded within the imprints of the Sea of Law Origins... the Second, Third, and Fourth Eras had been capable of transforming into aberrants.
They had not been creators, merely imitators;
Then how had the Demon God managed to transform into an aberrant when the Sea of Law Origins had yet to record this information?
Was it because of that humanoid being as well?
Had he anticipated it long ago?
With these doubts, Chu Yuan continued searching through the information within the Sea of Law Origins...
The Great Universe began to decline, heading toward its end;
In the void, the light of the stars began to dim. No more living beings were born... everything was steeped in deathly stillness.
A Divine Race martial supreme knelt before the Demon God, his tone grave. "Heavenly Venerable... the density of universal energy within our race's territory, compared with a billion years ago...
Has already fallen by a full ten percent!"
"I understand... withdraw." The Demon God's gaze was distant as he spoke calmly;
After acknowledging the order, the Divine Race member asked again, "Heavenly Venerable... will the Great Universe also fall into extinction?"
"Are we not... becoming its firsthand witnesses?"
"Then our race...
Where should we go from here?"
The Demon God fell silent for a moment. "I don't know."
Once the grand hall was empty, he leaned back against his throne. Universal energy gathered at his fingertips into points of light;
Then they were dismantled and separated...
From within, he extracted one type of energy—the very "vital energy" warriors absorbed during the early stages of cultivation.
