Led by the Venerable of the Feicang Race, Zhang Junbao and Luo Feng arrived near the wide river in the blink of an eye.
"This is"
What appeared before them was not a Aurora at all, but countless Aurora, a Aurora of colors, all converging to form this endlessly flowing river.
The shape of the river can be discerned from light-years away, but upon closer inspection, it is discovered that the river itself is actually countless Aurora.
"Could this be the legendary ' Five-Colored Aurora Lake ' of the Ancestral God Secret Realm?" True Yan King asked in surprise.
"You do have some knowledge." The Venerable of the Feicang Race glanced at True Yan King with surprise, then smiled and praised, "That's right, this is the Five-Colored Aurora Lake."
Seeing the surprised expressions on their faces, the Venerable the Feicang Race finally managed to salvage some of the reputation of the Universe Venerable. He explained, "From where you were just now, you might have thought this was a river. But if you flew over the entire river and looked down, you would find that it is an almost circular, endless lake."
This Five-Colored Aurora Lake is 10 light-years in diameter and possesses boundless power. Each single Aurora, when unleashed, can severely injure Universe Venerable. The entire lake is an endless combination of Aurora, with limitless power!
It is one of the Strongest Supreme Treasure in the vast universe.
"This Five-Colored Aurora Lake is the most precious protective Supreme Treasure of our Ancestral God Sect!" the Venerable the Feicang Race said proudly. "With such a protective Supreme Treasure, who would dare to trespass on our Ancestral God Sect?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Junbao and the others looked at him with strange eyes. Only then did the Venerable the Feicang Race remember that the Demon Lord Luan Shen had just barged in, and the Five-Colored Aurora Lake hadn't reacted at all. The slap in the face had come so quickly.
"Ahem, that ' Universe Master ' just now must have communicated with the Ancestral God of our Ancestral God Sect beforehand. The Ancestral God didn't activate the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, so he was able to enter the Ancestral God Sect directly."
"In short, to even see Strongest Supreme Treasure is pure luck," the Venerable the Feicang Race said, changing the subject. "Don't your four major clans have one of the universe's Strongest Supreme Treasure, the ' Star Tower,' on your Outer Domain Battlefield? That's Supreme Treasure that countless powerful beings cannot shake, cannot claim as a master, and cannot forcibly take away. To this day, countless powerful beings in the universe are unaware of its power. In short, it has not yet claimed a master."
" The Star Tower is one of the Strongest Supreme Treasure?" True Yan King exclaimed in surprise.
Zhang Junbao and his three companions also feigned surprise. They knew that the Star Tower was no longer without an owner; its owner was right here.
" Junbao, this Five-Colored Aurora Lake is quite similar to the secret technique you used when you killed the King Rank in the Outer Domain Battlefield!" At this moment, Luo Feng suddenly spoke up.
Back when Zhang Junbao fought in the Outer Domain Battlefield, none of the human powerhouses entered the core battle zone. Some of them used virtual assistants to film Zhang Junbao's battle scenes, which allowed other powerhouses to truly understand Zhang Junbao's formidable combat power.
"Hmm? That's true. The True Meaning of Taiji I cultivate is itself a fusion of the Ten Great Laws. This ' Five-Colored Aurora Lake ' feels somewhat like the Universe Origin, and it also contains the aura of the Ten Great Laws."
"It seems we have quite a connection."
"Fate?"
Zhang Junbao's mention of fate reminded Luo Feng of his own connection with the Star Tower. If it weren't for this special destiny, he probably wouldn't have had a chance to join the Star Tower.
Now that Zhang Junbao claims to have a special connection with the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake " in front of him, could it be that he has a chance to gain the Five-Colored Aurora Lake's approval?
However, the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake " is the most precious Supreme Treasure of the Ancestral God Sect, and it already has an owner. Zhang Junbao could not possibly claim it as his own.
Luo Feng glanced at Zhang Junbao, puzzled. Zhang Junbao sensed his gaze, smiled faintly, and said nothing.
He had experienced the process of the universe's birth. As the spokesperson for the Universe Origin, the Ancestral God Sect Ancestral God Sect might have received the Five-Colored Aurora Five-Colored Aurora Lake as Supreme Treasure bestowed upon them by the Universe Origin. In this sense, he did indeed have a special connection with the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake ".
To seize the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake," surely one must kill an Ancestral God of the Ancestral God Sect?
In the Original Universe, even the Universe Supreme Master probably couldn't kill the Ancestral God.
"Enough said, I'll take you to Bauhinia Island." The Venerable of the Feicang Race didn't know what the exchange between Zhang Junbao and Luo Feng meant, but he felt that the Ancestral God Sect's Supreme Treasure had successfully intimidated these inheritors, and that was enough.
Star Shifting and the stars shifted, Zhang Junbao found himself on the edge of the "Five-Colored Aurora Five-Colored Aurora Lake," only a few hundred meters away—extremely close.
"Go in, Bauhinia Island, is where you Beast God Inheritor reside, and it's also the outermost edge of the ' Five-Colored Aurora Lake.' You have the Beast God Inheritance Token, so the ' Five-Colored Aurora Lake ' won't harm you." With that, the Venerable the Feicang Race took the lead and entered.
The Aurora, which was originally powerful enough to kill Universe Venerable, drifted over him as if it were a thin veil, without causing him any harm.
"Let's give it a try too." After saying that, Zhang Junbao set off into the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake," and Luo Feng and the others followed closely behind him, stepping into the lake.
"The feeling is like walking on real lake water. The Aurora touching my skin feels incredibly comfortable, like entering the Universe Origin. It's wonderful."
If someone were to cultivate in this lake, their speed of comprehending the Universe Origin would likely be astonishing.
Under this peculiar feeling, Zhang Junbao subconsciously released his own domain, wanting to see if this " Five-Colored Aurora Lake " had any special connection with his World Projection.
Suddenly, the Aurora around him seemed to sense something and began to surge rapidly.
But a voice suddenly rang in Zhang Junbao's mind.
"Ah, that feels so good!"
"Who?"
Zhang Junbao opened his eyes wide and looked around; he had entered a completely new world.
" Junbao, what's wrong?"
Luo Feng noticed Zhang Junbao's similarity and asked.
"Huh? It's nothing. Where is this?"
"This is Bauhinia Island. Look over there, so many palaces. It seems that many powerful people live on Bauhinia Island," Luo Feng replied.
"Kindness."
Zhang Junbao responded. He noticed that neither Luo Feng and his group of four, nor the Feicang Race Venerable, seemed to have heard the voice from earlier, nor noticed the unusual appearance of the " Five-Colored Aurora Lake." Was it just his imagination?
"Look!" The Venerable the Feicang Race pointed to the sky.
Zhang Junbao and the others looked up.
They saw rings of light and shadow enveloping the entire Bauhinia Island. These rings were constantly expanding, disappearing at the edges and then giving birth to new rings in the center, which was quite awe-inspiring.
Birth, annihilation.
The halos resembled ripples on the surface of water, circling back and forth.
Each halo is woven from countless threads of Law, with the Time Law, Space Law, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, and light Law intertwining and echoing each other, and even many Fusion Law, revealing infinite mysteries, as if demonstrating the secrets of the Universe Origin to everyone.
Zhang Junbao and the others were completely immersed in it. The swirling, fading light seemed to fully explain all the mysteries of the universe, which was quite wonderful. Although it couldn't compare to the scene of the universe's birth and death that the Original Ancestor had performed for Zhang Junbao, it was still extraordinary.
"This trip to the Ancestral God Sect was definitely worthwhile."
"You actually woke up on your own!" The Venerable the Feicang Race asked, looking at the now-awake Zhang Junbao.
"These apertures are indeed amazing, but they're still lacking something."
"This is an outward manifestation of the Universe Operation Law," the Venerable the Feicang Race said proudly. "Our Ancestral God Sect is the greatest power in the universe, upholding the Universe Operation Law, and is therefore also protected by those Universe Operation Law!"
Luo Feng and the others were dumbfounded. Other cultivators were merely comprehending the Law, but the Ancestral God Sect was indeed maintaining the operation of the Universe Laws.
Just as ordinary people enter a game as players, the Ancestral God Sect is the administrator. From this perspective, they are born with characteristics that surpass those of ordinary cultivators.
"Our Ancestral God Sect's Ancestral God Secret Realm possesses the most Special Lifeform and the most special treasures in the universe. The Five-Colored Aurora Lake is a gift from the Universe Operation Law to our Ancestral God Sect."
The Venerable the Feicang Race looked up at the sky, his face full of pride, and said, "The actions of my Ancestral God Sect are in accordance with the Universe Operation Law. Anyone who defies the Ancestral God Sect is defying the Universe Operation Law!"
These words were extremely domineering. Ordinary cultivators who comprehend the Law are simply no match for the Ancestral God Sect, which upholds the Universe Laws.
"But it's also subject to the Universe Laws!" Zhang Junbao thought to himself.
Serving the Universe Laws brings many benefits, but it is not without its drawbacks. For example, the Three Ancestral Gods were unable to break through to become the Universe Supreme Master before the end of this cosmic era, which is one of the limitations.
However, the Universe Origin granted them the power to contend with the Universe Supreme Master in the Original Universe. Whether this is good or bad can only be judged by the Ancestral God themselves.
" On Bauhinia Island, since the birth of the universe, there have been hundreds of billions of inheritors. You humans are just one of the many races in the universe."
It should be understood that the universe is fair. The Inheritance Token bestowed by our Ancestral God Sect are distributed throughout the universe. Among the billions of races and tens of billions of inheritors, the actual number is very small.
"Hundreds of billions?" Luo Feng and the others were shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, they realized that it was indeed not a lot.
On some large life-bearing planets, there are hundreds of billions of life forms on a single planet, and at least tens of millions of life-bearing planets in a star field. The number of life-bearing planets in a Universe Country is even more countless.
There are 1,008 Universe Country within the Human Territory alone. As for other races in the universe, it's probably impossible for anyone to confirm their existence; it's an astronomical number.
Based on this calculation, since the birth of the universe, there have been tens of billions of inheritors, but in reality, the number is very small.
"Many powerful individuals have perished; now, only a little over one hundred million inheritors remain on Bauhinia Island," said the Venerable of the Feicang Race.
After introducing the basic situation of Bauhinia Island, the Venerable of the Feicang Race pointed to the mountains by a river and said, "You can build palaces here. Remember, each palace can occupy a maximum of one kilometer in length and width, and the same applies to those colossal Starry Sky Behemoth."
"Understood." Zhang Junbao and the others indicated that they understood; these were the rules on Bauhinia Island, and everyone was subject to them.
Next, the Venerable of the Feicang Race explained the distribution of the Bauhinia Island to them.
" The Ancestral God Sect has Three Ancestral Gods, Eight Beast Gods, 73 Divine General, and 3000 Divine Envoys. The palace where they reside is the core of the Ancestral God Sect."
"This is the temple of the Guardian Beast God, and the island lord of Bauhinia Island is the Guardian Beast God."
The Venerable of the Feicang Race led them to a magnificent palace. The palace was decorated with eight different statues, including giant lizards, roaring gorillas, and birds with outstretched wings. These statues were quite similar to the Beast God Space within the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword that Zhang Junbao had obtained.
"Go in. The Guardian Beast God will grant you permission to enter Bauhinia Island. My mission is now complete." The Venerable of the Feicang Race said, looking at the palace gate before him, "I hope you can live a long life. After all, sending so many geniuses at once shows the Human Race's considerable courage."
"Thank you, Venerable!" Zhang Junbao and the others expressed their gratitude. The Venerable of the Feicang Race had given them guidance along the way, which had also given them a comprehensive understanding of the Ancestral God Sect.
The Venerable the Feicang Race smiled slightly, then broke through the air and disappeared.
Zhang Junbao and his four companions walked side by side into the palace gates. The palace was very spacious, and they walked for quite some time before finally emerging from the main hall and arriving at a spacious courtyard.
"Five inheritors." A man sitting cross-legged in the central courtyard called out.
Zhang Junbao and the others also noticed him.
"A human?" Luo Feng was surprised. The human in front of him was dressed in a simple black robe, had long blue hair, and blue secret patterns on his face. The aura he exuded made them realize that he was a Universe Venerable.
" Human Race Soul Slave!" Hong said at this moment.
"Good eye. Human geniuses are getting stronger and stronger. I didn't expect to see humans, and five of them at once. It's truly delightful. You don't need to guess anymore. I am not Guardian Beast God. I am just a servant under the island lord, responsible for guarding the palace and relaying information to the island lord."
" Soul Slave at the Universe Venerable level." Luo Feng and the others couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow. Even Universe Venerable could not escape the fate of becoming Soul Slave.
"If we can take Alien Race as servants, Alien Race can naturally take humans as servants as well. The Guardian Beast God is at the level of Universe Master; it's not strange that he has a human Venerable as a servant."
Having roamed the universe for many years, they were already aware of this situation.
Unless, like Hong did before, they also enslave the Alien Race that enslaved them, they can barely be considered freed from their fate of enslavement. But who can enslave the Guardian Beast God?
Who would risk becoming an enemy of Beast God at the level of a Universe Venerable for the sake of a Universe Master?
"We are the newly arrived inheritors, here to pay our respects to the Guardian Beast God."
"Please wait a moment. I have already sent a message to the Guardian Beast God Guardian Beast God he is temporarily busy. Please wait here," the man in black robes said with a smile.
Zhang Junbao and the others exchanged glances, but didn't find anything wrong with it.
The Guardian Beast God is, after all, the Universe Master. It's perfectly normal for him to have important matters to attend to. He might be talking with the Demon Lord Luan Shen right now, so naturally he doesn't have time to see them.
"Let's wait here. Would you mind if we took a look around the temple?"
"You may do as you please within this courtyard."
The individuals had already cultivated their minds to an extremely high level, so naturally they wouldn't be bothered by such a small matter.
This is their first time entering the Temple of the Ancestral God, so they can take a closer look.
Luo Feng and the True Yan King three sat cross-legged, waiting silently.
Zhang Junbao, on the other hand, wandered around, wanting to see what the connection was Path of the Beast God of the Ancestral God Sect and the Beast God Statue on his True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword.
