Chapter 1299: Terrifying Everlasting Saint

By: Three Hundred Jin's Smile

Everyone looked in the direction indicated by the finger. It was a remote corner of the chaotic sea, a secluded area among the nine great cosmic continents.

It appeared unremarkable.

"Perhaps it will descend here?" Caroline pondered.

This location...

Could this be the result of the ancient deities' years of secret planning and calculation?

After all, the ancient deities had been missing; now, it seemed they had been working tirelessly for this matter. They had previously laid the groundwork for the current evolutionary knowledge, and now they were preparing the next stage, having already begun seeking the path to enlightenment in the chaotic sea. Thinking back now, even great hardship couldn't describe their immense efforts.

The Emperor noticed everyone's confusion and explained, "Renimansgar and the ancient deities have always been elusive. The exact situation is unknown, but they seem to be researching together, traveling across the chaotic sea or other locations. They did provide this address, but it's only approximate! Whether it will actually descend there remains to be seen, and the specific time is roughly within the period of one hundred to two hundred years from now..."

So, this means it might appear at this location in about one or two days?

Everyone fell into thought.

"It must be incredibly powerful by now."

Medusa nodded. After all, no one could predict the Destroyer God's movements. She couldn't help but murmur, "No wonder His Highness Renimansgar was also involved in this, and no wonder I knew about it. However, the Moon God Season has been missing all this time, so I don't know what they've been secretly planning..."

"Indeed..."

"They are very mysterious."

Everyone began discussing eagerly. After all, this was a rare gathering for them, who hadn't met in hundreds or even thousands of years. They weren't enemies; they all knew the deepest secrets of the universe. Though they developed independently, they were essentially in the same boat.

Next, the few couldn't help but discuss their insights on achieving enlightenment, as well as challenges in evolution and development. Zhi Ji also listened silently beside them, taking notes. Although she couldn't fully grasp most of the profound evolutionary theories and bloodline atlas evolution theories, it didn't stop her from committing them to memory.

The more she noted, the more astonished she became. Some of the knowledge was mysterious and profound, covering an extremely wide range. It captivated her, and she marveled that this group of people had accumulated such a vast amount of knowledge.

Evolving the cosmic atlas!

The more she listened, the more startled she became.

"The True Sound of the Great Dao?"

"Lip-syncing of the universe?"

"They call this... The Overture of the Great Dao Atlas? Does each detailed score represent a universe?"

"And they divide the scores into upper and lower parts!"

"The upper part is the Innate Atlas, the main trunk atlas of the Big Bang, and the lower part is the Acquired Atlas, the branch atlas completed by the cosmic saints!"

It was incredibly detailed, incredibly complete. Zhi Ji felt as if a door to a new world had opened. The more they knew, the more Zhi Ji gradually came to believe in the true existence of the "Cosmic Leader" and "Mother of the Universe." Their knowledge in this area was at least several millennia ahead of the rest of the universe!

Finally, Medusa said, "So, next, the three of you will be widely adopting sons and daughters. Won't there be major problems if you hand over your universes for others to possess?"

"No problem. What's the harm in letting them possess a universe? They can't decipher the universes we've evolved."

Emperor Qi laughed, "We've conducted research and created complex, encrypted evolutionary paths. Even if they gain control of the universes we've evolved and become their Heavenly Dao, they won't be able to fully comprehend their mysteries... Moreover, we've left backdoors in those universes, forming a vast clan power through them."

Bloodline bestowal, bloodline backdoors... Indeed, it was a power based on bloodline clans. Universes had already formed a "sea clan," much like individual life forms.

"With the encrypted evolutionary paths, it would indeed be difficult for them to replicate."

Medusa thought for a moment and said, "However, with a ready-made universe in hand, they wouldn't need to replicate it. By simply studying its bloodline atlas and summarizing the paths, they might quickly grasp the knowledge we possess."

This situation was like you evolving a "human." Although the other party wouldn't know your process of evolving the "human" and could perfectly steal the result, they could study the "human's" cell structure, hair, and bones, and create something like an "insect" or a "tree." They only needed to study the fundamental knowledge.

"This is unstoppable. We can only ensure that our bloodline universes are not deciphered."

Emperor Qi shook his head. "We cannot monopolize knowledge, and knowledge itself cannot be monopolized. This universe has countless prodigies. If they want to deduce something, they will certainly deduce it; it's only a matter of time. Our universe, as a template, indeed allows them to study it as a case, which can accelerate their acquisition of knowledge... That's why they're so eager to call us 'father'; in reality, each one is a rebellious child, already planning betrayal."

"But just because we're afraid of them studying it, should we refrain from acting? It's better to seize the first-mover advantage. Their rise is inevitable anyway." Emperor Qi's voice was stern; he saw the cosmic situation very clearly. "In the future universe, this chaotic sea will undoubtedly be a massive 'Spore Evolution' sandbox. Everyone will be evolving species, becoming evolutionary players within it! Evolving a species, gathering a clan, and contending for supremacy everywhere!"

Zhi Ji was somewhat puzzled again.

"Spore Evolution?"

"That's true," Medusa nodded upon hearing this. "I've also encrypted my cosmic descendants. I allow others to use them, and they can't clone them, but extracting knowledge from them and creating something suitable for themselves would be very quick."

"It is very quick," Zhi Ji suddenly spoke up.

"Huh?" Medusa didn't immediately react. Then she suddenly said, "You're also part of the same group. How about you try studying my universe and see if you can decipher it, or what you can discover?"

Zhi Ji nodded, quite pleased. So, Zhi Ji began studying the other party's bloodline universe and was utterly amazed.

"This is a quantum universe, capable of quantum entanglement, creating a universe similar to itself? Isn't this a true parallel twin universe? This bloodline is incredibly powerful! It's no less than some of my own bloodlines!"

Zhi Ji began her research, and in less than one or two years, she had already uncovered some results, which instantly astonished Medusa and the others.

"Your learning speed?"

"So fast!"

Facing the astonished voices around her, Zhi Ji remained calm. "At this rate, I would only need about twenty years to successfully master the preliminary knowledge of evolving the universes of all heavens... However, although I can acquire knowledge from it, the encryption system is very robust, making it impossible to fully decipher the universe itself." After all, the path of a universe's evolution is extremely complex, and once encrypted, it's very difficult to replicate.

"Twenty years?" Medusa frowned and took a deep breath. "So, in just twenty years, their progress will be close to ours? This is simply monstrous."

"Then, with their innovation, in a hundred years, we might only be able to see their backs!" Caroline also found it tricky. "The universes they create could even be more formidable than ours."

"Indeed, this learning speed of evolution is half of Emperor Qi's." The Three Pillar Gods said, "A normal Heavenly Prodigy Saint, in our eyes, would take about five hundred years to reach this level... But they are simply monsters! We are no match for them. Is this the difference between the universe's strongest geniuses and us ordinary ones?"

Zhi Ji was momentarily stunned, looking at Emperor Qi beside her with some surprise. This person is even faster than me at learning? I am already considered among the top in this era, capable of sweeping across a cosmic epoch. Doesn't that mean he can learn on the spot and see through others' cultivation techniques?

"But this is all that can be done now."

"While the Evil Gods seem to be benefiting, in reality, they themselves gain immensely; in twenty years, they will have mastered this level... But there's no way around it. Even if we try to curb them, it would only postpone the inevitable. It's better to let the Evil Gods gain some advantage now."

They continued their discussion, deliberating on the future cosmic landscape. This was terrifying! Gu You, Wen Meng, Liu Qi... This group, despite accumulating knowledge over endless years until now, faced the prospect of the other side perfectly surpassing them, starting from scratch, in just one hundred years!

How could they compete?

They felt a hint of despair. In talent, the other side crushed them by more than ten times! Were these the most formidable prodigies of that ancient era?

Amidst everyone's discussion, the Emperor gently took Zhi Ji's hand and gradually piloted their cosmic vessel away, leaving behind their war tent discussions and future decision-making.

"Why aren't we listening anymore?" Zhi Ji asked. This was clearly the best environment to build relationships with others in their faction and exchange information, even if it was tedious.
