Chapter 480 Entering the Cosmic Sea!
After becoming the strongest being in the universe, all the clones will merge into one, and the divine body composed of energy will also transform into a flesh and blood body. This is common sense.
Zhou Ze believed that he should not be affected by the rules. All his clones merged into one. Strictly speaking, he and his clones were not the same as the original and clones. Whether it was the original he named himself or the so-called clones, they were all just his body.
Since obtaining the Origin Land, his will, or rather his true "body" or core, is no longer limited to the body, but to the Origin Land!
The origin is its core, just as the core of the Golden Horned Beast is its internal primordial core.
"Regardless, it will be a very, very long time before I break through to become the strongest in the universe. It might take even longer than Luo Feng's breakthrough, but at least... it won't be faster than his..."
Zhou Ze remained calm, but he had a vague feeling that after breaking through to become the strongest in the universe, a tremendous change would occur, leaving him somewhat uncertain...
Faced with unknown changes, all he can do is his best and leave the rest to fate!
"Ten thousand clones, each with identical strength except for the element of supreme treasure—this power is simply heaven-defying! If I break through to become the strongest in the universe without merging into one, then as long as I possess enough primal power, I alone will possess the terrifying power of ten thousand of the strongest beings in the universe!"
"Most importantly, these ten thousand strongest beings in the universe are all in my body, and I can control them with a single thought. In this way, once we use a combined attack, even the legions under the Zerg and the Machine Race cannot match my coordination!"
Zhou Ze pondered silently. After becoming the strongest in the universe, there were two possible outcomes: one was that everything would be normal and his ten thousand clones would still exist; the other was that all his clones would merge into one.
The former would definitely be best, but the latter would have a huge impact on him...
Furthermore, he is not certain whether he can continue to improve his genes after breaking through to become the strongest in the universe. Judging from his memories, he cannot, but he possesses the Origin Land, so everything cannot be treated according to common sense.
He wouldn't harbor any illusions unless this cycle of reincarnation was nearing its end. The best course of action was to reach a perfect divine body with 100,000 times the genetic potential of the Lord of the Universe, and then break through to the next level.
"Judging from past experience, although my growth in the Origin Land has been greatly restricted, and I cannot even communicate with my consciousness or enter the Origin Land of the Universe, it has also given me many benefits: ten thousand clones, the ability to create bodies with any genetic multiple at will, the ability to analyze and create all things, and as long as the power of the Origin Land is not exhausted, I will not perish..."
"After becoming the strongest in the universe, I will most likely no longer be subject to the rules, but even if there's only the slightest possibility, I must be cautious!"
"In this way, even if I become the strongest being in the universe and all my clones merge into one, preventing me from advancing my genetic level, I can still maximize my own interests!"
To be honest, Zhou Ze was feeling somewhat tormented and conflicted at the moment. Based on his experience over the years, he felt that he was both influenced by the rules in the dark, yet not within those rules, which made him feel very uncertain.
"Forget it, I'm not going to dwell on it anymore. Anyway, I don't feel any pressure to become the strongest in the universe as quickly as possible. I'll take it slow..."
Zhou Ze cast aside his distracting thoughts and began to control ten thousand clones to cultivate the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual together. With his experience in successfully cultivating it, it only took Zhou Ze more than thirty years to raise all ten thousand clones to the limit of the universe, which is 10081 times their genetic potential.
"Luo Feng's Nether Sea clone has achieved perfect genes, and his consciousness can enter the primordial universe's origin. He has obtained the innate secret technique 'I am the Universe' bestowed by the primordial universe's will. I still have nothing, hehe..."
Zhou Ze was not annoyed; on the contrary, he felt gratified. The more this was the case, the more it proved that he was not within the rules. In that case, if he broke through to become the strongest in the universe, his clone would not merge.
"Begin converting divine power. Once all divine power is converted, the efficiency of absorbing energy and expanding the space within your inner world, as well as converting primordial power, will increase exponentially!"
"Ten thousand gene clones, each 10081 times stronger, at the level of a cosmic master. Once my inner world reaches its limit, I should be able to be self-sufficient..."
Life is more enjoyable when there is something to look forward to.
"The energy is a bit too thin..." Zhou Ze felt a headache coming on after sensing it for a moment.
Ten thousand clones, each with 10081 times the genetic potential and at the level of a universe master, their internal worlds absorb an astonishing amount of energy. Without the primordial universe's source to nourish them, they can only rely on some cosmic crystals, treasures, and scattered cosmic energy from outside the primordial universe...
This meant that he could only utilize a very, very small fraction of the efficiency required to transform into his clones...
Only because his temporary true form had the Lord of the Golden Gauntlet constantly drawing energy from the origin of the universe for him did things get a little better, but that's not enough now.
Because his genetic level is now several times higher than that of the Golden Gripper Lord, the energy absorbed by the Golden Gripper Lord is simply not enough to reach the limit of Zhou Ze's current clone transformation ability.
"Should we go take a look at the Cosmic Sea?" Zhou Ze stroked his chin and thought for a moment. "It wouldn't hurt to go take a look. Anyway, I'm quite free right now, and there's nothing urgent."
"I wonder if my inner world can transform the chaotic energy flow in the cosmic sea..."
Once the idea was born, it could not be stopped.
"Who should I ask to show me the way?" Zhou Ze pondered silently. "The Lord of Chaos City? He's too busy, and it's the opening period of the Primordial Star right now. Maybe I shouldn't ask him..."
Several faces flashed through Zhou Ze's mind: "Let's find the Lord of Ice Peak. The Star Prison Demon Lord has just become the Lord of the Universe, and probably hasn't been to the Cosmic Sea yet. The Lord of Ice Peak is the disciple of the Primordial Ancestor and a veteran of the Cosmic Sea."
……
In a remote corner of the primordial universe, there was a massive black hole that had plunged the vast surrounding star field into darkness. Two figures appeared nearby in a flash; they were Zhou Ze and the Lord of Ice Peak.
The Lord of Ice Peaks readily agreed to Zhou Ze's request.
The Primordial Star has been open for quite some time now, and there are very few treasures appearing now, especially those that the Lord of the Universe values. The Lord of Ice Peak is no longer on the Primordial Star; he has been working on the Heavenly Flowing Sail, hoping to gain control of it as soon as possible.
"Holy Master, there are two ways to reach the Cosmic Sea. One is to enter the spatial interlayer and then teleport until you reach the end of the spatial interlayer, and then break through the endless cosmic membrane! Although the cosmic wall is a strong barrier, even the Lord of the Universe can break through that membrane."
"The second method is to leave the original universe through this Toya black hole."
The Lord of Ice Peaks smiled and pointed at the Toya Black Hole, saying:
"The Toya Black Hole is arguably the most powerful black hole in the entire primordial universe. Its immense tearing and twisting forces constantly erode its membrane, so entering a black hole allows one to exit directly..."
"You've probably already looked up information about the Cosmic Sea, so I won't go into detail. Come on, let's go inside!"
boom!
Zhou Ze followed the Lord of Ice Peak directly into the depths of the Natoya Black Hole and soon disappeared from sight.
"Hoo hoo~~"
As soon as he entered, Zhou Ze felt powerful devouring and twisting forces acting on his body. If it were an ordinary universe venerable, he would probably be turned to ashes instantly, but of course, it had no effect on Zhou Ze.
The two soon arrived at the deepest part of the Toya Black Hole.
"Look, that's the true form of the Toya Black Hole," the Lord of the Ice Peaks pointed ahead.
It was a sphere about three meters tall, entirely black, with dark gold patterns on its surface. The countless patterns formed a very strange design.
This sphere with dark gold patterns is the black hole itself, generating endless and terrifying twisting and devouring power.
Around it lies one of the membrane walls of the entire primordial universe, which has been torn open by this twisting force, creating a hole nearly ten thousand kilometers in diameter.
Zhou Ze's eyes lit up, and he said to the Ice Peak Lord beside him, "Ice Peak, isn't anyone eyeing the main body of the Toya Black Hole?"
?
The Lord of Ice Peaks was momentarily stunned, "What idea?"
But then, remembering Zhou Ze's identity, he laughed and said, "Haha, as expected of a Saint Master, I understand your thoughts. But this thing is incredibly sturdy, and it has a mysterious binding force. Even the strongest person under the patriarch of the Cosmic Sea Holy Land, like my teacher, couldn't do anything to it..."
"Alright." Zhou Ze's eyes showed slight disappointment: "This Toya black hole itself is absolutely suitable for refining weapons, and it's even qualified to be used as a core material for the most powerful treasures..."
The Lord of Ice Peaks laughed and said, "My teacher also considered taking it back then, but according to him, this thing seems to be connected to the entire primordial universe. Even with his power, he couldn't move it an inch, so he had to give up..."
"Stop thinking about it, let's go..."
Swish!
Zhou Ze and the Lord of Ice Peak flew past the black hole itself, completely reaching its gravitational pull, and flew directly out along the irregular membrane opening that had been torn open... Outside was the cosmic sea!
……
The vast cosmic ocean is boundless, and to this day, no supreme being in the universe has been able to discover its end. Within this cosmic ocean flows endless chaotic energy, and within this boundless chaotic energy lies the primordial universe, the largest known celestial body! The primordial universe is unbelievably large.
As Zhou Ze followed the Lord of Ice Peak into the Cosmic Sea, he saw the surrounding chaotic currents that resembled mist. The endless chaotic currents generated overwhelming pressure, so strong that it was exaggerated. Even though these chaotic currents did not attack intentionally, the pressure they naturally emitted was enough to annihilate an immortal god!
"Holy Master, you've sensed chaotic energy in the primordial universe before, but it's far inferior to that energy or the chaotic energy of the cosmic sea!" The Lord of Ice Peaks smiled.
"The miniature universes of the strongest beings in the universe all use this chaotic energy as their energy source, and their purity is much higher than that of the chaotic energy in the initial universe."
"However, only the Lord of the Universe or even the strongest being in the universe can absorb this chaotic energy. Of course, a small number of universe overlords can also do so."
