Swallowed Star plane.

Universe Ocean.

In the vast Universe Ocean, chaotic air currents surged incessantly.

This was a forbidden zone devoid of up, down, left, or right, filled with terrifying storms capable of easily tearing apart an ordinary Universe Master.

Yet, deep within this chaos lurked a colossal beast, its size so immense it could not be measured in light-years.

It lay quietly in the void, its body covered in ancient, dark-gold scales, each one comparable in area to a vast continent.

On its massive head grew sharp, pointed horns, the laws of sharpness imbued within them seemingly capable of piercing the very void of the Universe Ocean.

The giant beast slowly opened one eye.

This single eye alone was unimaginably large, and as its gaze shifted, it clearly reflected the birth and destruction of countless brilliant galaxies and universes.

It was none other than the original ancestor of the Starry Sky Behemoth race, a great existence who had already stepped into the realm of a Void True God and could break through to the level of an Eternal True God at any moment: Su Changqing.

At this moment, Su Changqing's massive body shifted slightly, shattering the chaotic air currents for ten thousand miles around.

This was because, just a moment ago, a clone he had left in the Primal Universe had transmitted a brief message through their conscious connection.

On Earth, some strange variables had appeared.

A hint of surprise flashed in the depths of Su Changqing's eyes.

As a transmigrator familiar with the entire trajectory of the Swallowed Star world, Earth had always been under his close surveillance.

It was the cradle painstakingly crafted by the Mountain Sitting Guest, and the starting point for the rise of Luo Feng, who would one day shake the Universe Ocean.

Logically, before Luo Feng truly matured, Earth should only follow its established path, struggling to survive under the ravages of the RR Virus while slowly evolving a martial artist system.

How could variables suddenly appear?

Su Changqing had wanted to descend personally to take a look, but sensing the peculiar fluctuations faintly emanating from afar, he dismissed the thought.

Finding the corpse of the God King of Jin was his top priority, and it could not afford any mistakes.

It concerned a far more vast world and was a crucial link in the plans he had laid for endless ages.

No matter how great the variables on Earth were, they could not overturn the heavens.

His consciousness surged, leaving an order for the clone stationed in the Solar System: "Go and investigate the source of these variables to ensure they aren't a result of our transmigration causing the plot line to shift."

Primal Universe, edge of the Milky Way.

Center of the Sun.

The temperature here reached tens of millions of degrees, and violent nuclear fusion energy triggered earth-shattering explosions at every moment.

Right in the core of this endless light and heat, a pair of deep eyes slowly opened.

This was a young man who looked identical to a human from Earth.

His black hair drifted in the wind, and he wore a seemingly ordinary, plain robe. He sat cross-legged in silence upon the churning sunspots; the stellar flames, capable of vaporizing even alloys in an instant, licked at his hem but failed to leave even a single scorch mark.

This was the clone Su Changqing had left within the Sun.

Upon receiving the command from his main body, Su Changqing's clone slowly stood up and took a step forward, his figure instantly merging into the surrounding ripples of space.

He did not trigger any alarms at the observatories, nor did he disturb the God of War or beyond-God-of-War level powerhouses on Earth who believed they controlled everything.

Even Hong, who resided in Hongning Base City and was hailed as Earth's strongest, remained in quiet seclusion, completely unaware of this supreme being's arrival.

Su Changqing's clone descended silently onto a desolate plain.

A cold, fishy wind blew past, stirring a few weeds on the ground.

Su Changqing stopped and looked calmly at the thick, crumbling concrete wall ahead.

On the wall, a young man with limbs twisted like a pretzel, his left arm smashed into a pulp, and his death looking gruesome, was pinned firmly by several pieces of rusted sheet metal.

With just one glance, Su Changqing discovered the anomaly.

The clothing and attire on this young man did not belong to any style from Earth's Great Nirvana period.

What interested him even more were the energy fluctuations lingering on the corpse.

It was not Genetic Origin Energy, nor was it spiritual consciousness.

It was a completely different power system, carrying a hint of peculiar martial rules that seemed closely linked to the soul imprint of some kind of beast.

As the ancestor of the Starry Sky Behemoths, he was very familiar with the soul imprints of beasts.

"Interesting, an aura of a completely unfamiliar cultivation system."

Su Changqing's lips curled slightly as he whispered to himself.

In this universe, different cultivation systems did indeed exist, but after reaching a certain level, they all led to the same destination, following the same path of cultivation.

Yet, the cultivation system he sensed now was entirely distinct.

It stood in stark contrast to the existing systems.

He could conclude that this young man was definitely not from Earth, and perhaps did not even belong to this Primal Universe.

To put it broadly, he did not even belong to this plane!

A lifeform from an outer universe had actually descended silently into the private territory of the Mountain Sitting Guest, only to be tortured to death by a few low-level martial artists in the Wilderness Zone?

This could not possibly be some so-called stroke of luck or coincidence.

He wanted to see exactly how this young man had died, and how he had arrived on Earth.

Su Changqing raised his right hand, palm facing upward, and carefully controlled the scope of his influence; an invisible force of law instantly enveloped a radius of one hundred meters.

For a clone of a Void True God, reversing time and space in a low-dimensional space like the Primal Universe was even simpler than drinking water.

The surrounding scenery began to undergo a strange distortion.

Time ceased to flow at this moment, and then, like a rewinding videotape, it rapidly sped backward.

The blood on the ground returned into Yan's body, his twisted limbs restored to their original state, the heavy hammer that had smashed his arm flew back into the martial artist's hand, and the iron sheet that had pierced his body retreated back into mid-air.

Su Changqing's gaze pierced through the obstruction of time, watching every one of Yan's regressing movements.

He precisely locked onto the historical node where Yan had not yet died.

He saw Yan collapse and scream in extreme terror, saw the captain of the martial artist squad demand the cultivation technique, and also saw the moment Yan shouted the word "Dou."

Right at this node.

Su Changqing's palm lunged forward, directly ignoring the barriers of time and space, and grabbed the still-lively Yan from the historical scene.

He intended to use the most brutal means to forcibly pull this young man from the past into the present and resurrect him directly!

With his great power, let alone an ordinary person, even if a Universe Overlord had their soul and body destroyed, he could still fish them back out from the river of time and space.

Compared to the laborious process of backtracking time, fishing a person back to perform a soul search was far more efficient.

Su Changqing's arm exerted a slight force, pulling backward.

Space emitted a violent tremor.

Yan's body was successfully pulled from the past into the present world.

However, when Su Changqing let go and carefully examined the body before him, a flash of astonishment crossed his eyes.

The Yan he had pulled back across time and space lay lifelessly in the tall grass.

He was still a cold corpse!
