"You?" All the saints trembled.
This was the Sea of Chaos! A vast and boundless Sea of Chaos! Any saint who fell into it would be drowned alive; no saint could survive in this endless dead zone. In the depths of this Sea of Chaos, there were various cosmic life forms: trilobites, seaweed. Surely, this wasn't a humanoid universe, was it?
A humanoid universe!? Goosebumps appeared all over them as they gazed at the alluring beauty who had climbed onto the deck, dripping wet, possessing a strange, captivating charm. A sea creature? A mermaid-type universe? Or a mature universe that had already developed intelligence!? Their hearts skipped a beat.
They knew clearly that the universes they controlled were beginning to develop faint traces of intelligence as they became complete, transitioning from their nascent stage into their growth phase. At this point, they resembled the vague consciousness of a three or four-year-old infant. If they entered maturity, a more developed spiritual intelligence might emerge, and the universe's rules would become fully complete, potentially transforming from its current incomplete state into a true miniature universe.
They communicated telepathically among themselves:"A humanoid universe?""Surely not?""If it's a humanoid universe that has developed intelligence, is it inviting us into its body now?""Yes, exactly! For the Heavenly Dao of these universes, it is also the cosmic will's expectation for powerful beings to reside within them and achieve sainthood!""A humanoid universe..."
They looked at the mysterious woman before them, filled with both fear and shock.
Zhiji watched them, knowing exactly what they were thinking. They simply couldn't believe there was a being capable of freely soaring through the Sea of Chaos, which shattered their cognitive limits. So, they tried to force an understanding of the situation using concepts they could grasp, treating her as a humanoid universe, similar to a trilobite. But how ridiculous was that? Even the previous trilobite universe had already transcended their cognitive limits; they were merely using one impossibility to explain another.
But now, her aura was indeed that of a universe. Her Bloodline: White Sea, possessed no combat power. Its sole characteristic was to simulate the aura of the cosmic Sea of Chaos, allowing her to survive within it. This bloodline originated from a powerful Insectoid Matriarch of a certain generation. Each generation had its unique racial biological traits, and that particular Matriarch had evolved a Heaven-defying bloodline capable of living in the Sea of Chaos.
"You must have sensed the cosmic aura emanating from me." Zhiji smiled and shook her head, then suddenly raised her hands, looking at the people on the deck. "I mean no harm. I am indeed just a wild universe in distress, and I happened to arrive here by chance."
A universe in distress! At these words, heaven and earth were shaken. And wild, at that? All the saints on the cosmic vessel were utterly shocked.
Zhiji displayed a gentle smile that made everyone feel as if they were bathing in a spring breeze. "I came from a meteor shower outside the grand universe not long ago. I was one of the meteors, falling into the nearby sea. I only recently developed intelligence and am quite new to this world. When I saw living beings here, I couldn't help but come over..." Her voice was soft and melodious, like a celestial song. "Before, when I first arrived here, I had no idea of my origin. It wasn't until I had been lurking beneath your ship and overheard your ancient prophecy that I realized we had already been foretold by the ancient great powers of this grand universe in ancient times. Such beings, I fear, observed the outer heavens countless eons ago, in prehistoric times, and predicted that our cluster of cosmic meteors would descend in this era... The era of the myriad heavens and worlds, as foretold in the prophecy, is about to fully begin. As one of the 129,600 worlds... I am destined to be mutually beneficial with you. Please guide me."
Such a polite universe. Was this really a universe? All the saints' pupils suddenly widened. A universe being able to develop consciousness, as the will of the cosmic Heavenly Dao, was already incredibly astonishing! But they eventually accepted it. After all, the trilobite universe beneath their feet had already begun to develop intelligence as saints attained their dao and completed its rules... However, a universe transforming into a woman and being so gentle and polite to them still felt utterly unbelievable!
Giant Octopus: "???"Live stream players: "???"
The Giant Octopus's live stream chat was filled with question marks. "Cosmic meteor shower" – could such a fabricated term actually appear? Could a universe turn into a meteor? Wasn't this a line from Mount Akina Speed? Beyond the grand universe, there's a cosmic meteor shower? What the hell is that! Revealing her identity right away, claiming to be one of the Cosmic Heavenly Daos of the myriad worlds in the coming cosmic era, and asking for guidance? She's totally playing along! They were utterly dumbfounded.
But what came next dumbfounded them even more. The mysterious woman before them smiled gently and said, "This humble one has heard that living beings experience joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and also have loved ones. I have only just developed my intellect and wish to experience love, to find a Dao companion to entrust my life to..."
Love? Seeking a Dao companion? All the saints were shaken, their mouths agape. They had seen stubborn rocks gain sentience and trees develop intelligence, acquiring emotions and desires, wanting to find Dao companions. But a vast, ethereal cosmic will... Their minds wavered, their hearts faintly fluttered, and they were utterly captivated.
They looked at the graceful and charming woman before them—a universe! To have a universe as a Dao companion was simply unprecedented! To marry the will of the Heavenly Dao... Their gazes instantly became fervent. Universes and saints were beings of entirely different dimensional levels. If a universe was likened to a giant creature, then saints were like parasites within its body. And now, these parasites were to marry a universe... No matter how grand the opportunity, it wouldn't be an exaggeration. Instantly, countless saints felt their hearts stirred.
"What would it be like to marry a universe and spend the wedding night?" They looked at the graceful and beautiful young woman, their gazes somewhat fiery. Even other saints were thinking: this trilobite universe before them would soon develop intellect and self-awareness. Perhaps by building good relations, they could marry it too? Although it was a vast, giant insect, not a humanoid universe, it was still better than...
"Welcome, welcome.""We are all saints, and we understand the interdependent relationship between universes and living beings, where one complements the other and neither can exist without the other... Only with living beings can a universe have vitality and achieve completion.""We can discuss that cosmic meteor shower."
The entire deck immediately became incredibly enthusiastic. They even brought out benches and food, and retrieved some rare ancient artifacts caught during their fishing, offering them for appreciation.
Zhiji blinked, a faint smile in her heart. "These mortals of later generations are quite amusing. This journey promises to be very pleasant. Is this the Age of Grand Navigation? It certainly adds some vitality to the originally stagnant Chaotic Heaven universe... I hope I don't play them to death."
Yes, in her eyes, these ordinary saints, and even the Tenth-Tier offspring, were merely mortals. Only those who could walk on the surface of a universe and survive outside its interior were considered true mortals. After all, as the most ancient existence, she knew clearly that the saints of this universe were incomplete. Only by attaining the Dao of the Nine-Yuan Universe could one be considered a truly complete saint in the old era. Incomplete, without the true power of a saint, what else could they be but mortals?
Moreover, the initial generations of the Insectoids still possessed the power to contend with them. But as generations passed, the painstakingly evolved bloodlines of the Insectoids were acquired, making the others stronger, while the Insectoids grew weaker with each passing era. By this age, the Insectoid inheritors couldn't even reach the complete saint realm of nine universes... With nearly all the accumulated wealth of previous Insectoid generations, how could they fight? She alone had emerged several times, slaying multiple generations of Insectoid Matriarchs. She was practically invincible in this era, unless she was besieged and killed by thousands of powerful saints. And even if she were besieged, she could still use "White Sea" to escape into the Sea of Chaos, making her truly invincible... The entire contemporary universe posed no threat to her whatsoever, like a colossal whale entering a village pond, needing to coil carefully to avoid disturbing other creatures to death. How heaven-defying would it be to combine five perfect, Heaven-defying bloodlines from previous Insectoid generations?
"It truly is a treasure trove," Zhiji stretched, "constantly enriching our accumulated resources. Is this era another new epoch?"
On the other side, the Giant Octopus, curled up in a corner, watched this display of power and dared not utter a sound. The live stream chat also completely erupted.
"Where did this demon come from!""Such a bold trick, just like Mount Akina Speed, spouting nonsense and playing along! (Shameless)""I'm a wild universe in distress? I'm here to find love? Oh my god! What a bizarre and novel scam! If we didn't know the historical truth, we'd actually fall for her lies! (Dumbfounded)""This person is using the history we fabricated to stir up trouble everywhere! (Stunned)""An explosive display, absolutely shameless!""Can't mess with her, can't mess with her! Quick, call Mount Akina Speed to come confront her!"
