Chapter 1 The Beginning

Within the Void God Clan's territory, in a sealed and protected region of space, floated a black spire 12.7 light-years tall.

Whoosh.

A purple-robed man arrived at one of the doors at the base of the black spire. Without any hindrance, he flew inside.

In a corridor of flowing, brilliant light, two ancient guards stood watch, clad in armor exuding terrifying auras. Within the armor was a cloud of mist. They had been guarding this place for countless eons.

Since being created by the Void God Clan's greatest progenitor, Gu Mo, they had faithfully guarded this place. The two guards saw the purple-robed man and said, "Hall Master Tu Tie Mu."

The purple-robed man nodded and continued inward.

As one of the legends of the Lan Da universe who had broken through by cultivating the five great inheritances, Tu Tie Mu's status was naturally extremely high, second only to the high-dimensional lifeforms within the clan!

The black spire was heavily guarded, concealing many of the Void God Clan's secrets. Tu Tie Mu spent more than half an hour inside before finally arriving at a vast hall.

The hall was empty.

Tu Tie Mu walked to the center of the hall and said, "Envoy Vika, have my nineteen experimental subjects yielded any results in the past millennium?"

"Hall Master Tu Tie Mu, among your nineteen experimental subjects, only Tong Yu Shi of the Fantuo Ya clan has made a breakthrough. It is estimated that he will break through and become a cosmic legend within ten thousand years!" A vast voice echoed within the hall.

Tu Tie Mu revealed a look of joy. "About to become a cosmic legend? Excellent. I need to experience his path."

"As you wish." Endless starlight spread around!

Tu Tie Mu felt himself become infinitely detached in an instant, the endless starlight enveloping the entire universe.

"Whoosh!"

Within the endless starlight, a weak life was instantly locked onto. It was none other than Tong Yu Shi, a peerless genius of the cosmic race: the Fantuo Ya clan.

Whoosh. This was a dark cosmic prison, where the gaunt Tong Yu Shi was imprisoned!

"You will clearly experience all of his experiences in the past millennium," the vast voice sounded.

In an instant, time flowed backward.

Ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years!

Instantly tracing back to the time node a thousand years ago, Tu Tie Mu now seemed to be possessing Tong Yu Shi, quickly experiencing everything Tong Yu Shi had gone through.

Tong Yu Shi's sorrow, madness, and explosive desire for destruction.

Occasionally, when he calmed down, Tong Yu Shi would frantically begin to paint, creating painting after painting.

When the last painting was completed, even Tu Tie Mu, who was experiencing it firsthand, sighed in admiration!

"As expected of a genius who reached the tenth-order limit in just over a thousand years. After being corrupted and fallen, the desire for destruction influenced him to slaughter all the life around him, including all the life in his hometown. The pain and remorse of destroying his hometown and clan after regaining consciousness only made him fall deeper. He even begged the clan's Supreme Realm expert to imprison him."

"I thought that this experimental subject's contribution would be minimal."

"Who would have thought that his self-imposed imprisonment of more than fifty thousand years would give me such a great surprise."

Tu Tie Mu looked at the painting. "It's a pity that Envoy Vika's high-dimensional observation, although it can almost see through low-dimensional life, can only see through various emotional fluctuations, thought patterns, and the various methods he employs. As for what he is truly thinking in his heart, it is impossible to deeply observe."

"This firsthand experience only counts as 60% effective, perhaps."

...Tu Tie Mu smiled.

"But this painting..." Tu Tie Mu looked at the final successful painting, completely captivated. "This is a painting that leads to the cosmic legend realm. To personally create it through possession is a great gain."

After all, he possessed the complete upper part of the inheritance! The upper part contained the basic and nascent realm high-dimensional lifeform portions of the complete and orderly inheritance, making it easier for him to absorb the insights of these corrupted experimental subjects.

The experimental subjects' insights were scattered and unsystematic, but because of their outstanding talent, they still managed to comprehend quite a bit!

"Whoosh."

The possession ended, and Tu Tie Mu was in an excellent mood.

"Envoy Vika, if Tong Yu Shi becomes a cosmic legend, please notify me immediately," Tu Tie Mu said.

"Very well," the vast voice responded. "Hall Master Tu Tie Mu, one of your nineteen experimental subjects, Natoli of the Kayong clan, has chosen to commit suicide! And has requested that the clan not revive him."

"Committed suicide!"

Tu Tie Mu frowned. "This good-for-nothing, after being mad for thirty thousand years, actually committed suicide? Didn't he want revenge? What a waste!"

He had chosen talented powerhouses from various races in the universe, generally with extremely strong minds and wills, who would not easily commit suicide and give up even after being corrupted and fallen.

"Someone who commits suicide so easily probably wouldn't have achieved much anyway," Tu Tie Mu said. "Envoy Vika, please bring me Wu Ming of the human race."

"Oh? The talent of the human Wu Ming... he should be the most dazzling of this universe's generation. Are you preparing to make him an experimental subject?" Envoy Vika asked with interest.

"Yes!" Tu Tie Mu nodded.

"Very well, I will bring him to you," Envoy Vika's voice echoed.

Tu Tie Mu quickly left the hall.

Inside a treasure vault.

Tu Tie Mu walked inside.

"I want to exchange for treasure number 92," Tu Tie Mu said, standing inside the treasure vault.

"Treasure number 92 requires the mind to reach the high-dimensional realm when used, and it also requires entry into the 《Void Abyss》 inheritance among the five great inheritances," a voice sounded from within the treasure vault!

Tu Tie Mu nodded. "I know!"

"This Wu Ming is very young, his mind hasn't reached the high-dimensional realm, and he doesn't have my clan's 《Void Abyss》 inheritance either. But I'm not helping him cultivate; I'm corrupting him."

Tu Tie Mu was very much looking forward to it.

"The exchange cost is five billion merit points," the treasure vault's voice said.

"Exchange," Tu Tie Mu frowned slightly but still said it.

Even for one of the Void God Clan's cosmic legends, five billion merit points still stung him.

Soon, a transparent crystal ball descended from the void and appeared before Tu Tie Mu.

The seemingly transparent crystal ball faintly contained a terrifying presence! Tu Tie Mu felt a tremor of fear.

"Wu Ming, ah, Wu Ming... the price of corrupting all the other experimental subjects combined is not as much as you alone. You must not disappoint me," Tu Tie Mu thought to himself.

After putting away the transparent crystal ball, Tu Tie Mu turned and left.

…

Two team members were drinking and looking into the distance.

"What is Captain doing?"

"Looks like he is communicating with someone."

"Since Captain arrived, he first had a three-game winning streak, and in recent years, the Void God Clan has even given up on this place. There hasn't been a single battle!"

"Yeah, I feel like we're not on the front lines of the battlefield, but on a tourist vacation."

…. The two team members both felt that the days were quite comfortable. Although they were tenth-order lifeforms, they still had to serve according to the human race's rules.

Most tenth-order lifeforms' service was very dangerous. Although there was a fixed amount of merit points issued every year, once they died in battle, revival would require deducting a huge amount of merit points.

Therefore, it was naturally comfortable not to have to fight and still receive a fixed amount of merit points every year.

"The younger generation of the Void God Clan can't do anything about Captain. At Captain's rate of growth, it won't be long before even the older generation of the Void God Clan can't do anything to him."

"Yeah, Captain became a tenth-order at 251 years old, and a tenth-order limit at 300+ years old. His growth rate is indeed faster than Vice President Chi Meng. Vice President Chi Meng became a cosmic legend in ten thousand years, and Captain is estimated to become a cosmic legend in three to five thousand years."

"As for me, I've been cultivating for more than fifty thousand years and still haven't reached the tenth-order limit. Compared to Captain, I feel like I have nothing to say."

"The gap between people is sometimes very large!"

Although the two team members were very emotional.

Xu Jingming sat on the edge of a fortress, the light screen in front of him showing his daughter, Xu Li Xing. "See that?" Xu Jingming pointed around. "This is a tenth-order battle star."

"Wow."

Xu Li Xing looked carefully. "Tenth-order battle star, I heard that they are all guarded by a group of tenth-order origin lifeforms. Black holes are not worth mentioning in front of it and can unleash various high-dimensional powers. Today I can clearly see what a tenth-order battle star looks like."

"Actually, it's nothing. Ordinary and desolate," Xu Jingming said with a smile!

Xu Li Xing said excitedly, "Dad, just looking at the material on the surface of the battle star, I can feel how extraordinary it is. I can't see any particulate matter even when I zoom in many times. The material is obviously very dense."

"It's all matter reconstructed at the origin power level," Xu Jingming said. "The stability is very high, and it can withstand the confrontation of high-dimensional powers when combined with the protective layer."

Xu Li Xing nodded. "By the way, Dad, you said that you can often go back in the future?!"

"Yes."

Xu Jingming nodded. "There hasn't been a single battle on the front lines. The Cosmic Human Alliance has notified me that I can temporarily withdraw. I'll come back to participate in the war in a few hundred or a few thousand years. Maybe the Void God Clan will be willing to fight me then."

He was already very idle, and now he was going to completely withdraw from the Void God Clan battlefield.

"Dad, you really should rest. You've been on the front lines for more than three hundred years since you became an origin lifeform," Xu Li Xing said. "Detaching from the battlefield will be more relaxing, and your mindset will be different."

"Even if I leave the Void God Clan battlefield, I still have to go to the Prison Clan battlefield occasionally," Xu Jingming said.

"Yes," Xu Li Xing nodded.

She also knew that her father was very special among the human race's origin lifeforms! Others could completely withdraw from the battlefield, but her father couldn't!

Just as the father and daughter were chatting, at that moment, a purple-robed man had arrived several hundred light-years outside the No. 11 tenth-order battle star.

"Wu Ming."

There was anticipation in the purple-robed man's eyes.

With the Void God Clan's tracking methods, as long as this human Wu Ming was in the universe, no matter where he was, he could not escape being tracked and locked on.

"There have been many geniuses throughout the history of the entire universe, but in this era, Wu Ming is number one," the purple-robed man, Tu Tie Mu, said with fiery eyes.

"Dad, I have an appointment in the virtual world. I'll flash you later," Xu Li Xing said. "I'll tell Mom that you're coming back too."

…. Xu Jingming smiled as he watched his daughter, and the light screen disappeared.

At that moment, the world before Xu Jingming changed.

The tenth-order battle star and the cosmic starry sky had disappeared. A vast, dark world appeared before Xu Jingming, causing his expression to change drastically.

Without him realizing it, he had fallen into an endless dark world. This method far surpassed him. He did not know that this was a being whose strength was comparable to Vice President Chi Meng—, and whose mind was extremely terrifying.

"Human Wu Ming, I'm sending you a precious gift," a voice echoed throughout the dark world!

Snap!

It was as if something had shattered.

Then, Xu Jingming saw him! His figure was infinitely great. Even though he had seen that monster when he touched the patterned stone pillar, that monster was far less than one ten-billionth of him.

He seemed to be the end of everything.

The past, the present, the future, all causes and effects, all possibilities, all powers, and even everything that he recognized, the ultimate end was him.

Even the black robe he was wearing—the darkness contained within the black robe instantly submerged the Primordial Star that Xu Jingming recognized in his heart.

Xu Jingming had been visualizing the Primordial Star for many years, but at this moment, his perception of the Primordial Star was instantly distorted, turning into a dark Primordial Star.

Everything was distorted.

From the moment Xu Jingming was born, his perception of the world, his perception of emotions, his perception of the clan, and his perception of all things were distorted. His mind was also distorted, completely converging towards him.

This was complete corruption! The corruption and erosion of a weak life by an infinitely great high-dimensional being.

Xu Jingming was still sitting there blankly, without moving.

But the No. 9 Primordial Battle Armor was terrified: "There is an external mental invasion, I cannot stop it, the master has completely lost consciousness."

"Return."
