Chapter 549 The Impact of the Virtual Universe

In the Cosmic Sea, near the primordial universe, a small universe is slowly transforming, expanding from its original diameter of one hundred million light-years to a much larger area.

The transformation of this universe was quite significant, and given its proximity to the original universe, it quickly attracted the attention of life forms that were patrolling the surrounding area.

"Mini-cosmic metamorphosis!"

Before long, seven or eight beings gathered here. They came from various races, and each of them was a true god-level expert.

Therefore, these people instantly understood the meaning of this commotion.

The Lord of Shihua Island exclaimed, "After hundreds of thousands of years, following the 'True Lord of the Divine Eye,' I never expected that someone else would break through to the Void True God realm."

"However, this miniature universe is a bit unfamiliar. Does anyone know who its owner is?"

As he looked around at everyone, he suddenly noticed that one of the figures looked strange, so he asked, "Mengcha, you seem a bit off. Do you perhaps know the owner of this place?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, the Dream Demon Ancestor, who had transformed into human form, took a deep breath and said calmly, "I do know who it is, because tens of thousands of years ago, Zhenjiao and I happened to be patrolling this place."

"And at that time—the master of this universe had just broken through to become a true god."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked when these words were spoken.

"That's impossible!"

The Lord of Primordial Island glared at him: "You mean, this person only took a few hundred thousand years to break through from a True God to a Void True God?"

"How can someone cultivate so quickly? Do you think everyone is a Primordial Tower Master?"

"Nothing is impossible," the Dream Demon Ancestor said calmly. "Although this person is not the Primordial Tower Master, he has a close relationship with the Tower Master, so it's normal for him to break through so quickly."

"Is she someone the tower owner knows?"

The Primordial Island Master blinked. If that's the case, it's indeed very possible.

After all, there have been too many miracles that have happened to the Tower Master of the Primordial Era over the years, so many that any unbelievable thing becomes reasonable as long as it is associated with the Tower Master.

"Alright, Mengcha, stop keeping us in suspense." The Zerg Queen said softly, "We've all come here on missions from the humans. The sooner we find out the truth, the better we can go back and report to them."

"Report back? There's no need for that."

The Dream Demon Ancestor shook his head and said, "Because the master of this place is one of the servants of the Primordial Tower Master, the manager of the virtual universe, and a true god-level intelligent life."

"This person almost never appears in the outside world because her true form is always in the virtual universe network, so it's normal that you don't know about her."

Upon hearing these words, everyone looked at each other in surprise. It turned out to be the administrator of the virtual universe?

It's important to understand that today's virtual universe is vastly different from that of the original era.

Yes, ever since the Primordial Ancestor escaped from its confinement hundreds of thousands of years ago, the truth about the virtual universe has been circulating among the upper echelons of the primordial universe and has become one of the legendary stories of the Primordial Tower Master.

These high-ranking individuals all knew about the virtual universe that the Primordial Tower Master had learned from the Primordial Ancestor, and they elevated it to an even greater level.

Today's virtual universes not only have more powerful and perfect simulation functions, but also have the ability to influence reality.

Wherever a sinful event occurs in the original universe and violates the rules set by the virtual universe, the virtual universe can unleash its power to erase the life that violates the rules.

And it is said that the one who carried out the erasure operation was this virtual universe administrator who has never shown his face.

"I never expected it to be her." The Zerg Queen shook her head slightly. "Since she's the Tower Master's servant, her rapid breakthrough is understandable."

"Yes, yes," everyone exclaimed. After waiting for a while outside the universe, seeing that no one came out, they had no choice but to disperse.

At the same time, there is the virtual universe, the primordial space.

When Chen Yuan's consciousness entered this place, Irene's physical body had already completed its breakthrough.

"Congratulations, you broke through pretty quickly."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "It's only been eighteen epochs since you broke through to the True God realm, but I didn't expect you to be in the Void realm in the blink of an eye."

"If the people in the original universe knew about this breakthrough speed, they would probably be green with envy."

"Others may not know the reason, but don't you, Master, know it? Please stop teasing me." Irene shook her head and said helplessly.

As the core of the virtual universe, her cultivation speed is naturally closely related to this secret technique; the stronger the virtual universe, the faster she grows.

Before Chen Yuan entered the Origin Continent, although the virtual universe had evolved to the Chaos level, its proficiency was still relatively low, and it could not be considered a true Chaos Realm secret technique.

But things are different now.

Thanks to the support of the Yanfeng Guild, the virtual universe network was covered most of the Origin Continent in just half a day. Then, they went all out to promote it and bring more cultivators into the virtual universe.

As of now, thirteen days have passed, at least half of all life forms within the Yanfeng Guild's sphere of influence have logged into the virtual universe, and at least one-third of these cultivators are permanent residents of the virtual universe.

You must understand, this is the Origin Continent. For those true gods who stand at the pinnacle of the cosmic sea, this is merely a sign of adulthood.

The number of Void and Eternal Gods is overwhelming, and they are also the mainstream users of the virtual universe.

Under the influence of these powerful figures, not only did Irelia's proficiency in the virtual universe increase rapidly, but she also gained a great deal of insight and was growing almost every moment.

That's why she broke through the barrier of the Void God in just thirteen days.

"In any case, it's always a good thing to make a breakthrough."

Chen Yuan inquired, "How's the transformation of the miniature universe going? When are you planning to attempt reincarnation?"

"The transformation is expected to be completed in about ten days."

Irele replied, "As for the cycle of reincarnation? It doesn't mean much to me. As long as the cosmic transformation is over, I can start at any time."

This is true.

As the core of the virtual universe, Irelia possesses a considerable amount of illusory power and the ability to create illusory clones.

Even if her main body enters the Origin Continent, she can still send out clones to any location within the virtual universe network's coverage area through the connection.

That's why Irene said that going through reincarnation wasn't very meaningful to her, since she could return to the Cosmic Sea at any time and wouldn't delay the mission of exploring new universes.

Chen Yuan was naturally aware of this situation, and upon hearing this, he nodded and said, "Then once the miniature universe has successfully transformed, you can set off immediately. In the future, focus the virtual universe on the Origin Continent and strive to break through as soon as possible."

"Understood." Irele nodded. "Given the current state of the virtual universe, I am confident that I can break through to the peak of the Void True God within ten days of the Origin Time, and break through to the Eternal True God within three hundred days."

"If the virtual universe becomes even more powerful during this period, the time it takes for me to break through will continue to decrease."

"Very good." Chen Yuan praised, knowing that this breakthrough was already very fast, even among the top tier on the Origin Continent.

Of course, it's still not comparable to itself.

After bidding farewell to Irene, Chen Yuan's consciousness returned to his main body, and then he broke the mental barrier between his various clones and began to digest what he had gained during this period.

With the acceleration of a million times in the miniature universe, three hundred years passed in the blink of an eye, and he finally finished sorting out the branches of the Great Dao he had mastered.

"I have mastered all six chapters of 'The Calamity of Ashes,' and my understanding of the six branches of destruction is at least 30%, with the strongest branch, Dark Heaven, reaching 50%."

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes. Thanks to the unique nature of "The Calamity of Ashes," he combined the six chapters and the power he ultimately unleashed was no less than mastering more than 70% of a single branch.

In other words, after this period of improvement, his offensive methods are now comparable to those of the late Chaos Realm.

Besides the Great Dao of Destruction, he has never neglected the cultivation of other Great Daos. He has mastered more than 20% of all branches of the Great Dao except for life and matter.

However, he is most skilled in the Great Dao, which is the branch of all things related to the Great Evolution Creation Body.

He has now cultivated this secret technique to the seventh level of the Chaos Realm, which is equivalent to four times of body tempering in the Chaos Realm! He has also mastered nearly 70% of the branches of the Myriad Things, making it the branch he has comprehended most deeply.

There's nothing we can do about it; the resources used in body-refining techniques are all quite ordinary, just in large quantities, unlike other major paths that require extremely precious treasures.

In the Origin Continent, where advanced resources are basically monopolized, Chen Yuan would find it difficult to find treasures for cultivating other Great Daos.

Apart from the Myriad Things Branch, his comprehension of the other God King inheritances he had mastered earlier was slightly inferior, basically the same as the Dark Heaven Branch, around 50%.

Based on these insights, Chen Yuan believed that if he exerted his full strength, he might be able to hold his own against a first-level God King.

"Aside from the somewhat complicated methods, this level of strength can barely be considered as transcending the Chaos Realm."

He breathed a sigh of relief. With this level of strength, he would be able to travel freely throughout the Origin Continent, as long as he avoided heavily guarded treasure lands.

"Our strength is sufficient for now," Chen Yuan said quietly. "The virtual universe network is also basically complete, so we can proceed with the next step of our plan."

"But before that—I need to go see my master first."

With this thought in mind, his clone, far away on the Origin Continent, finally stepped out of the cave.

A moment later, inside the Emperor's Palace.

"You want the treasure catalog left behind by Senior Yuan?"

Upon hearing his disciple's request, Difu looked surprised.
