In a library within the multiverse, Xu Zhi finally stopped at the collection of the Number One Devil in the martial arts world, a practitioner of the "Delusional Demon Splitting Art." This was after he had already visited the libraries of Mr. Cat, the Martial Arts Alliance Leader of the Universe, and Zhou Meng of 'A Dream of Heaven and Earth.'

As long as one calls his name, observes him, or perceives his existence in the netherworld... quantum assimilation will occur, and you will gradually become him, your appearance, personality, and combat power slowly being assimilated.

"In reality, the ultimate cosmic martial art of 'A Dream of Heaven and Earth' is the most powerful," Xu Zhi said with a calm expression, standing in the library. "This type of Ninth-Tier being, which relies on quantum laws, is inherently strange. They are dispersed and distributed in many places; a particle of a flower, feces, soil, or even a fragrance can be a part of them... Theoretically, if they reach the ultimate stage, they could even become the entire universe."

Yes, at that point, all the plants, gravel, and soil in the entire universe would be part of his body, making him no different from a true Creator God.

But is it realistic for the entire universe to be his quantum battle body? No, it's not realistic. First, his body would need to be as vast as the universe itself to resonate and entangle with all the matter in the cosmos. But if a creature's body is already comparable to the universe, why would it need to resonate with another universe?

"Therefore, the ultimate state of the 'A Dream of Heaven and Earth' technique is, by nature, a realistic paradox," Xu Zhi shook his head. "It's not that the technique isn't powerful, but this ultimate stage is simply too idealized."

That's why Xu Zhi came to the library of the Demon Sect, where the "Delusional Demon Splitting Art" is practiced. He didn't intend to cultivate the "Delusional Demon Splitting Art" itself; this sinister and bizarre martial art reminded him of the 'Tao Heart Seed Demon Art' from a famous Wuxia novel.

"Although this technique is powerful, it's naturally not what I'm looking for." Xu Zhi silently flipped through the ancient texts in the library. Every library housed a dazzling array of top martial arts from various universes, along with many conceptual and theoretical martial arts. These were left by generations of geniuses within the sects, who developed the concepts of techniques but could not fully form them into complete arts due to various impracticalities. As the leading Demon Sect in the multiverse's martial arts world, the techniques here were even more bizarre and diverse.

Among them was the "Sky-Swallowing Demonic Art." It aimed to devour all things, ultimately heaven and earth, the entire universe, to become one's own Holy Martial True Body. Quanta are the smallest particle units that make up matter. This art sought to use the quanta that compose one's own body to quantum entangle with and pair a planet, making it one's planet-level quantum battle body, and in the future, possibly entangling with the entire universe... Devouring all things, it is called the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Art.

"This is almost impossible..." Xu Zhi shook his head faintly. The quanta that make up your body can only pair with an equal number of quanta. Usually, it's one-to-one, like one husband, one wife. Therefore, one can generally only entangle with an equivalent-sized quantum body of oneself. Of course, one could use certain methods to achieve a 'one husband, three wives, four concubines' system. However, it would certainly not be "focused" enough, and even control would become chaotic. So, almost no one would do that. Not only would it drastically reduce combat power, but it would also consume exponentially more resources. Quantum entangling even one quantum battle body already requires immense mental effort; entangling several more would result in excessive resource consumption.

And this technique? It's formidable! It seeks to break through this quantitative limit, requiring one's own "quantum" to pair with multiple external "quanta," achieving a "one husband, billions of wives" scenario.

"For a minuscule body to pair with a planet billions of times larger, every quantum in your body would have to entangle with and control over a hundred million external quantum particles... Is that even possible?"

"Theoretically, it's certainly possible; otherwise, such a delusional martial art wouldn't be kept here. But to achieve it, one would have to cultivate and distort the relevant laws." Xu Zhi shook his head. "However, the amount of law-distortion required is too immense. One quantum of oneself resonating with a hundred million external quanta to devour heaven and earth... it's simply impossible to achieve."

Therefore, this technique, while beautiful and innovatively conceived, was preserved here as an incomplete manuscript for others. There were many such incomplete manuscripts. After all, this is how a civilization's martial arts development proceeds. Regardless of whether they were right or wrong, they left behind various conjectures and deductions about future paths. Even the saints didn't know if a seemingly flawed technique from that era might actually be far ahead of its time, just not recognized by the masses, and perhaps it could become mainstream in the future.

However, Xu Zhi's gaze fell upon another incomplete manuscript: **The Great Cosmic Mind Sutra**.

Five vivid red characters appeared in his mind. It was an extremely exaggerated name; even the several ultimate martial arts didn't dare to be named so. Below it, there were only a few simple lines of introduction:

*Alternation of life and death, primordial unity.**Cultivate to the ultimate, the universe is my body.*

It contained no detailed technique, only two short pages of concepts, similar to the exaggerated introductions of techniques like the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Art.

Xu Zhi quickly translated it; it seemed to be the author's research diary:

"A very long time ago, I began researching how to expand our quantum battle bodies. Theoretically, the larger our physical body, the larger the quantum battle body we can entangle... A larger body generally means more energy and stronger combat power... This is a fixed rule. So, how can we increase our physical size?

Countless martial arts masters in the multiverse have pondered this. Some even wish to expand to the size of a planet, or even expand and resonate with the entire universe. Our path of martial arts is: can we, through quanta, become the universe itself? And that village where countless enlightened ones gathered is also experimenting with this. Is the matter of our universe also part of a certain existence? We are trying, we are transcending. Our generations of martial arts masters are challenging the infinite possibilities of the entire universe. For example, the techniques of various top-tier existences, like 'A Dream of Heaven and Earth' and the 'Delusional Demon Splitting Art', are moving in this direction! They are truly rebellious, wishing for their own matter to 'quantum entangle' the entire universe...."

"Yet, ultimately, we are unable to entangle the entire universe because our bodies are not vast enough... The physical form of life is limited. To 'quantum entangle' the entire infinite universe with a finite body is, in itself, a fallacy... Is there any way for us, with our limited bodies, to increase our size?

First, we need a concrete concept of physical size. I conducted decades of research. Our species has physical size limitations; we cannot expand or shrink. My previous attempts were like growing an arm out of thin air, but without a corresponding soul overlap in the arm, it was merely an empty facade... Any technique that expands the body or turns one into a colossal giant does not represent the true 'original body.' The original body is the part where soul and flesh are unified... But the soul of a species is fixed and cannot expand its size. It's like a great lock in nature, restricting everything. So, is there really no way to expand one's physical form?"

Xu Zhi was stunned. The author was researching how to break the shackles of a species' physical size limitations. In fact, according to Xu Zhi's understanding, the souls of the entire clan were not restricted and could increase with the number of cells. But Xu Zhi, as one of the All-Gods, naturally knew that the growth of the entire clan's soul size should also have limits and would not expand indefinitely. For example, a Super Saiyan, whose cells number in the millions, a crude pixelated creature, still has a limit of over a hundred trillion, which is the number of cells many normal Ninth-Tier beings possess. Once reached, indefinite expansion becomes impossible. For the entire clan, their cells were few at first, and they would eventually grow to the size of normal people. The cellular size of the entire clan also reached over a hundred trillion. If the entire clan could expand indefinitely, the Three Pillar Gods wouldn't have been able to run rampant, relying on their "infinite" size.

"I feel like I've gone mad... My mind keeps churning... constantly thinking... Is there a way to expand my body and, at the same time, generate new souls corresponding to these new body parts?"

"Ten years, a hundred years, I've gone from a youth to an old man in his twilight years. My teacher says I'm obsessed, and I know I'm mad... but...."

Xu Zhi's expression remained calm. This was a madman, a truly insane person, a lunatic utterly devoted to seeking the Dao.

At this moment, a black-clad disciple walked by, glanced at Xu Zhi, and exclaimed with surprise, "Oh? Are you reading the Great Cosmic Mind Sutra?"

Xu Zhi neither confirmed nor denied. There were too many people here; naturally, they wouldn't suspect him. Every top sect's planet had hundreds of millions of outer disciples. They indeed followed a broad recruitment strategy, leaving disciples to fend for themselves; whether they succeeded or emerged as masters depended entirely on themselves.

"Is there something wrong with the Great Cosmic Mind Sutra?" Xu Zhi asked.

The black-clad disciple shook his head, his expression unreadable. "That was a madman; this is a madman's martial art! No one's technique is as insane as his. Not even our teacher's Delusional Demon Splitting Art is one ten-thousandth as mad as this!"

"The most evil demonic arts in the world aren't even one ten-thousandth as mad as this? Perhaps... it's quite insane," Xu Zhi agreed.

"Not 'perhaps'... you'll understand when you read further," the black-clad disciple said with a strange expression. "But I still advise you not to read it. Your worldview will shatter because of this evil technique."

Xu Zhi remained silent.

"He was a peerless genius of that generation, six hundred years ago. Master said his talent was no weaker than his own, perhaps even slightly superior, making him capable of contending for the title of one of the universe's ultimate powerhouses. However, he was a madman, too extreme. It's said that while traveling the martial arts world, he passed by an ancient ruined relic and obtained some technological data from a prehistoric civilization. He developed an immense interest in their understanding of the world of technology, always indulging in absurd martial arts research... and eventually died of old age."

"A madman, then?" Xu Zhi nodded. However, often, there's only a fine line between genius and madness. It was no wonder, then, that it contained concepts related to technology.

"What a pity." The disciple shook his head and sighed. He said no more, turning to walk around another section of bookshelves.

"Yes, it truly is a pity... History has seen too many geniuses. Perhaps they were no less brilliant than Di Qi, Caroline, and others, but many of them fell for various reasons," Xu Zhi sighed softly. He paid no mind to the passing disciple and looked at the next passage:

"I am growing older, I am growing older... I feel life slipping away from me. What have I truly done with my life? Hahahahaha, what... have I done? I've left nothing behind, gained nothing. I am going to die, and I fear death. What will I be like after I die? My soul will transform into spiritual energy, dispersing into the air. My body will become inanimate matter, various substances, carbon, and a part of the universe's rocks and rivers. This is the transition from life to death... Wait, I vaguely thought of something? Life? Death? That's right, life!"

"I quickly wrote all this down. It was as if I saw the truth of the entire world; the most supreme ultimate martial art in the universe seemed to be right before my eyes...."

"I've thought of it, I've completely figured it out!!"

"How to expand the body while simultaneously bestowing a corresponding new soul upon those new limbs...?"

"Yes, I had actually overlooked the essence of life. Even mortals know this method—how can a person spontaneously gain new limbs, and how can these new limbs simultaneously possess a soul...?"

A method even mortals know? These words were enough to send shivers down anyone's spine, as if an ultimate evil was slowly emanating black mist from the page, seeping out.

"Yes, this is a method even ordinary people know...."

"Giving birth."
