The Jin World is Endless deep sea.
Lu Qingshan's figure appeared silently above the deep blue sea.
The seawater churned at his feet, yet parted on its own before touching his robes. He glanced down at the sea beneath his feet, then stepped into the water.
The seawater automatically parted to both sides in front of him, forming a wide passage leading directly to the seabed.
The deeper he went, the dimmer the light became, and the heavier the surrounding seawater became, but it felt like walking on flat ground to him.
After an unknown amount of time, he stopped in front of an underwater canyon.
Deep in the canyon, a dark blue Three-Clawed Jiaolong was coiled on a huge reef, its head slightly lowered, as if it were asleep.
Sensing the familiar presence, the Three-Clawed Jiaolong suddenly opened its eyes, gently swayed its tail, and let out a low, affectionate murmur.
" Three Claws." Lu Qingshan landed on the rock and patted the enormous head. "Looks like you're doing alright."
The Three-Clawed Jiaolong let out a joyful roar, its sharp claws gently scratching at the rocks, like a kitten scratching a cat's scratching post, affectionately cuddling with its owner.
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly, flipped his palm, and a drop of dark red essence blood appeared at his fingertip.
The drop of blood had pale golden patterns flowing across its surface, radiating the pressure of a Void True God. "This is a drop of the essence blood of Void True God," Lu Qingshan said. "I've refined it for you, removing components incompatible with your body. In your current state, you should be able to withstand it. After refining it, your potential and strength will increase, and you'll likely evolve to the True God level in the future."
Although the Three-Clawed Jiaolong was created by Lu Qingshan, it is still a creature belonging to the Jin World, and its life comes from the origin of the Jin World.
Lu Qingshan couldn't take him out of the Jin World, but as the first life he created, Lu Qingshan still planned to give him some small help before leaving.
In the Jin World, Master of Laws is still quite dangerous; only those who reach the True God Level are relatively safe.
Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's words, a glint of intelligence flashed in the Three-Clawed Jiaolong's eyes; it seemed to understand its master's meaning.
It lowered its head slightly, bringing its enormous head close to Lu Qingshan's face, expressing its trust.
Without hesitation, Lu Qingshan flicked the drop of blood essence directly into its brow.
The moment the essence blood touched the scales, it quickly seeped in. The Three-Clawed Jiaolong's body trembled slightly, then let out a painful roar. A layer of pale golden light emanated from its body, and fine patterns began to appear on the surface of its scales.
"Refine it well." Lu Qingshan patted its head. "If all goes well, you might soon break through to the True God Level. At that time, you'll be considered a powerful figure in this Endless Sea. Even if things don't go smoothly, it will still enhance your potential and give you more possibilities in the future!"
The Three-Clawed Jiaolong let out a low whimper, rubbed its head against Lu Qingshan's palm, then curled back onto the reef, closed its eyes, and sank into the refining process.
Lu Qingshan observed it for a moment, and after confirming that its condition was stable, he turned around and walked up the seawater channel.
As he stepped back onto the sea, he raised his hand and gently drew a rift in the air, slowly opening a Time-Space rift. After entering it, Lu Qingshan's figure completely disappeared from this sea area of Jin World.
The core of the Universe Boat, the Inheritance Palace.
Lu Qingshan's Xue You Clone emerged from the Cultivation Space and stood in the grand hall with its dome as dazzling as the starry sky.
"The repair progress on the Universe Boat seems to be a bit slow."
Lu Qingshan said slowly.
The Boat Spirit stood quietly not far away, nodded, and said, "Master, the broken Small Universe that was attracted by the Universe Boat has been almost completely devoured. Without a new source of energy, repair can only rely on devouring Chaos energy, which will naturally be much slower."
"I know," Lu Qingshan nodded, "I'll figure something out!"
The Universe Boat is temporarily unable to move.
To accelerate its repair, a massive energy source is needed, and the shattered Small Universe of True God is generally the best source of energy.
Even if the Universe Boat actively attracts it, it still requires a certain amount of luck and time to draw in the fragmented Small Universe, unless it actively delivers the Small Universe to its doorstep for it to devour.
"It seems there is a way!"
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly. He naturally couldn't do it if it were a complete Small Universe, but since the fragmented Small Universe was no longer under anyone's control, he could use a secret technique from the Wu Kingdom Inheritance to move it over.
In the Universe Ocean, Lu Qingshan's true form emerged from the Jin World and began searching for the broken Small Universe drifting near the Universe Boat. Soon, he locked onto a target.
It was a broken Small Universe with no records, about 70 million light-years in diameter. Its surface was covered with cracks, and the Universe Origin inside had long since dissipated, leaving only a thin cosmic membrane covering the empty shell.
It drifted in from who-knows-where and landed right at the very edge of the Universe Boat's gravitational pull.
If left unchecked, it might be attracted to the Universe Boat countless eons later, then Universe Boat up and turned into nourishment.
But that's something that happens a long time from now.
In the Universe Ocean, although there are no more than a hundred True God, there are still many broken Small Universe, with more than ten thousand observable. Many more broken Small Universe have drifted to the deepest part of the Universe Ocean, a place that is impossible to reach and observe.
In every Reincarnation Era, True God is born; in the Endless Reincarnation Era, countless Small Universe of True God are naturally born as well.
"Let's choose this one."
Lu Qingshan took a step and arrived outside this Small Universe.
Then he took out a Palace Supreme Treasure. The Supreme Treasure was activated, and more than a hundred crimson rays of light flew out from the palace. The rays of light gradually solidified, transforming into towering figures made of lava, with extremely fierce auras.
One hundred and thirty-eight Lava Demon God, each exuding the aura of Ninth-Order True God.
They stood in neat rows, like an army under inspection, their fierce gazes carrying a hint of discipline.
These Lava Demon God were originally soldiers of the Wu Kingdom. Even after their deaths, some of them were transformed into Lava Demon God under the special influence of the Universe Boat and would still be under the rule of the Wu Kingdom.
Lu Qingshan, who had acknowledged the Universe Boat as their master, was now their supreme leader.
With a single word from Lu Qingshan, these Lava Demon God could die without any complaints.
Of course, Lu Qingshan wouldn't let these Lava Demon God die. There were even more Lava Demon God inside the Universe Boat, and they would all be useful in the future, so they couldn't be wasted.
Lu Qingshan learned this from Boat Spirit.
These soldiers were the most loyal warriors of the Wu Kingdom in life. They voluntarily gave up what was important so that they could transform into unconscious Lava Demon God after their fall.
The goal is to ensure the Universe Boat continues to operate normally even after it crashes.
After all, the Ninth Prince is at the Chaos Realm, while Duan Donghe and Gou Wu are powerful Eternal True God. They might still have a chance to survive, but these True God and Void True God are basically doomed to die. However, the Universe Boat needs a large number of True God and Void True God to operate at full capacity, which is why these soldiers actively used their abilities in life and actively transformed into Lava Demon God after death.
Having become the Lava Demon God, although he lost consciousness, he could still execute commands and assist in operating the Universe Boat. "Let's begin!"
Hundreds of Lava Demon God were scattered in all directions, yet maintained an exquisite formation.
They exerted their strength simultaneously, and their immense power actually managed to pry open this broken Small Universe. Under the combined power of hundreds of Lava Demon God, the Small Universe seemed to be sealed inside a blood coffin.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of Lava Demon God carried the blood coffin toward the Universe Boat.
On a shattered fragment of the hull in the Outer Domain of the Universe Boat.
The Rampaging Demon God stood atop a towering meteorite, gesturing wildly as he showed off the spoils he had brought back from the Jin World to the surrounding Universe Master.
His golden armor gleamed in the Chaos air currents, and his tone carried an undisguised smugness. "See that? This is Mechanical Flow Treasure from the Jin World! A lone wolf like me, as long as I'm bold enough and lucky enough, can still get my hands on good stuff. Unlike some people, who spend all their time hiding in corners."
As he spoke, his gaze drifted towards the direction of the Golden Radiance Demon God.
Previously, after selling his Blood Sea Demon Armor and making a fortune, he wanted to exchange it for some treasures in the Universe Ocean to resell. He set his sights on the Supreme Supreme Treasure in the Golden Radiance Demon God Palace, but unfortunately, the other party refused to trade, which made him very unhappy. So, whenever he had something good, he would show it off.
He was boasting enthusiastically when he suddenly sensed an extremely powerful aura surging from the direction of the Universe Boat.
He subconsciously turned his head to look, and then his whole body seemed to freeze, and the smile on his face also froze. One after another, towering crimson figures were flying over from the Universe Ocean. They were arranged in neat rows, and each step they took caused the Chaos air currents beneath their feet to tremble slightly.
Even more terrifying was that the 138 Lava Demon God formed a strange formation. Like a coffin-carrying ceremonial guard, each of them stretched out a hand, supporting a broken Small Universe with a diameter of about 70 million light-years.
Perhaps because they were too heavy, the Lava Demon God carrying the blood coffins were not very steady on their feet, and they walked unsteadily, as if they were dancing.
The Rampaging Demon God opened its mouth, but no sound came out.
The other Universe Master beside him were equally dumbfounded.
The Golden Radiance Demon God even retreated directly into his Palace Supreme Supreme Treasure.
One of the Universe Master murmured, "One hundred and thirty-eight... one hundred and thirty-eight Lava Demon God... how is that possible..."
The Rampaging Demon God rubbed his eyes, took another look, and confirmed that he hadn't misread it.
Each of those Lava Demon God possessed the strength of at least Ninth-Order True God, with some even faintly touching the Level 10 level.
Such beings, if placed in the Universe Ocean, would cause headaches for even the Universe Supreme Master. Yet, at this moment, they acted like loyal guards, carrying a Small Universe forward steadily.
Such a scene greatly shocked even the Rampaging Demon God who was used to seeing grand spectacle.
As they approached, the Rampaging Demon God turned and fled. The other Universe Master, as well as the Golden Radiance Demon God, also ran away in panic, not daring to appear before these countless Lava Demon God. However, the news spread like wildfire throughout the Universe Ocean.
More than a hundred Lava Demon God actually carried a tattered Small Universe to the Universe Boat, allowing it to devour Universe Boat...
Don't say that the powerful figures of the Three Great Reincarnation Eras hadn't witnessed this scene.
Even the East Emperor Ancestor and the Purple Moon Ancestor, who had lived through countless Reincarnation Era, were shocked upon learning the news...
