Chapter 498 Facing the Fundamental Dao of Life
In retrospect, although the other party suffered some bad luck, it was mostly their own fault.
If he had been even slightly more cautious, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
"Your very origin was devoured by the Beasts of the Realm—" Chen Yuan shook his head. "The original universe can only be destroyed and restarted again, but the new universe will have nothing to do with you. It's like you've wasted this precious opportunity."
"Moreover, the destruction of your miniature universe also means that you have no hope of breaking through in the future and can only reincarnate and start over."
"You really know a lot." Di Yulu nodded helplessly. "However, this is roughly the situation."
After saying that, he looked at Chen Yuan with a hint of joy in his eyes: "Fortunately, there's always a way out. I actually waited for you at the last moment."
"Yuan Chu, with your strength, killing these world beasts is not difficult. Please help me this time."
"In return, you can make any request, even if it's something I, in my physical form, can fulfill!"
In fact, Chen Yuan was also tempted by this group of world beasts. These were high-level world beasts, much stronger than those in his hometown.
With just a few materials gathered, his path to the ultimate gene will be fully open!
Not to mention the many benefits of enslaving a world beast—Chen Yuan could already see the perfect divine body beckoning to him.
It can be said that if Di Yuluo hadn't possessed the primordial universe, rendering him unable to act, he would never have relinquished such an immense opportunity as the World Beast.
And now—this opportunity is about to fall into his hands.
So Chen Yuan didn't even hesitate and immediately said, "Leave it to me."
Di Yulu was overjoyed: "Great! Just tell me what you want!"
"My request isn't difficult for you either." Chen Yuan smiled slightly: "Since you control the primordial universe, I hope to witness the origin of life and the Great Dao that the primordial universe nurtured."
"You want to view the Great Dao of Origin?" Di Yulu was taken aback.
To be honest, this request was indeed a simple matter for him, but—
"Are you sure you want to see it now?" he couldn't help but say. "Although you have good talent, your cultivation level is too low, and the Great Dao of Origin is too far away from you."
"It's not that I object to you watching, but I feel that since you have mastered the power of dimensions, you should wait until your realm improves and you even pass through reincarnation before sending your avatar over to maximize the effect."
"No need, we can watch it now." Chen Yuan shook his head gently.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Di Yuluo, but rather that he possessed the Primordial Eye and the system, which allowed him to quickly record information about the Great Dao. Whether he slowly comprehended it or integrated it into secret techniques, he could gradually master this power.
"Don't forget, although my cultivation level is low, I have also mastered a part of the Great Dao of Matter."
He reminded him.
Di Yulu was startled again, suddenly realizing that the person in front of her was no ordinary universe lord. After all, which universe lord could wield the power of the Great Dao that was comparable to that of a Chaos Great Sage?
So he stopped trying to persuade her and nodded, saying, "Alright, since you insist, then no problem."
When do you plan to gain enlightenment?
"Let's do it now." Chen Yuan didn't want to waste time. "The sooner I finish comprehending it, the better I can deal with the Beast of the Realm."
"Alright." Di Yulu nodded slightly. "Then come with me."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan created an avatar and followed Di Yulu out of the Shiyuan Palace space.
Moments later, the two arrived in the primordial universe.
After passing through the cosmic crystal wall, Chen Yuan arrived at a familiar space under the power of Di Yuluo—the origin of the primordial universe!
Moreover, it was the core area he had never entered before!
From the outside, the structure of this primordial universe is very similar to that of the home universe, and even the environment of the origin is almost identical.
The same laws govern the ocean, the same seven-colored origin of the land.
"They really are exactly the same."
Looking at the scene so similar to his hometown, Chen Yuan couldn't help but have this thought flash through his mind.
Of course, since his spiritual realm was not yet perfect, he had only ever been to the outer perimeter of the core area in his hometown and had never truly entered the core, even though he knew that the original Dao was located inside.
Now, thanks to the invitation from Di Yuluo, the controller of the primordial universe, he can swagger into this mysterious place that has never been explored before.
"please."
Without hesitation, Chen Yuan followed Di Yulu into the colorful space.
Wow!
What first caught the eye was not the expected Great Dao of the Origin of Life, but the endless, intertwined and integrated power of laws.
"The Ten Laws are completely integrated—" Chen Yuan murmured, "Is this the complete Chaos Law?"
Chen Yuan had studied the path of law fusion for a long time, so he could see the essence of the power contained in this space at a glance.
"That's right."
Di Yuluo, standing to the side, nodded, his gaze equally captivated as he looked at the laws governing this place: "Every wisp of power in this core area is composed of complete chaotic laws."
"But compared to the power of the Great Sage of Chaos, the power here is too vast. Even my true form is far less than one ten-millionth of it."
"Is it really that exaggerated?" Chen Yuan was taken aback. The power of a Chaos Great Sage was not even one billionth of that of the Primordial Universe?
"Of course," Di Yulu countered, "Do you know how vast the primordial universe was?"
The question was very simple, and Chen Yuan answered without hesitation: "Ten trillion light-years."
"That's right." He then asked, "Do you know how big the Chaos Great Sage's miniature universe is?"
"Ten thousand—" Chen Yuan had barely uttered those two words when he realized something was wrong and immediately corrected himself, "One hundred billion light-years?"
He suddenly remembered that one trillion light-years was the size of Luo Feng's small universe at the chaotic level.
Normally, the diameter of a small universe belonging to a powerhouse of the same level should only be one-tenth of that of Luo Feng.
"Yes, even the universe of the Chaos Great Sage is a hundred times smaller in diameter than the original universe. In terms of size, the difference is as much as a million times."
"And this is just the difference between the universe and the cosmos."
Di Yulu shook her head slightly: "In reality, the purpose of a miniature universe is to replenish the divine power of cultivators, hence the vast difference in size between the two."
"Depending on their understanding of the Great Dao, cultivators will have different reserves of divine power."
"Taking the Chaos Realm as an example, a cultivator's own divine power reserves are approximately one ten-thousandth to one hundredth of their small universe."
"In other words, even the Great Sage of Chaos, who is most skilled in the divine body lineage, only possesses one percent of the divine power of a small universe in his physical form."
"Compared to the power of the primordial universe, it is billions of times weaker."
"I see." Chen Yuan nodded in understanding, then his gaze toward the Origin Space became even more fervent: "If we could make use of the power here, we could probably defeat even a God-King with ease."
"That's for sure." At this point, Di Yulu smiled and said confidently, "As long as there are no restrictions from the supreme rules, I can use the power of the entire primordial universe to completely annihilate a first-level God King."
"Of course, this is only under the most ideal circumstances; the opponent would need to come to the Cosmic Sea to compete with me."
Di Yulu left his words at that, but there was one more piece of information he didn't reveal: if a god-king level being wanted to kill him, there was no need for such trouble; they could simply kill his physical body.
Once the physical body perishes, the consciousness it entrusted to the miniature universe will naturally disappear as well.
Chen Yuan didn't care what the other party was hiding. In fact, he knew the weaknesses of the original universe controller better than anyone else.
It's worth noting that the "King Jiuye" in the original story was a god-king, but he was still instantly killed by Luo Feng in one move, without even a chance to be reincarnated.
So just listen to these kinds of self-praises without really taking them seriously.
What he coveted was nothing more than the boundless divine power contained in the primordial universe.
"Unfortunately, I don't want to be bound by the supreme rules, so I'll pass on the idea of possession."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "Anyway, once I have built a perfect foundation, my small universe will eventually be able to grow to a size comparable to the original universe. There's no need to be envious."
"As for the fundamental Dao contained within it—someone will provide it to me."
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan said, "Let's keep going. I can't wait to see the true face of the Great Dao of Life."
39
"Okay." Di Yulu continued to lead the way.
The two continued to venture deeper. This core area did not appear large from the outside, but it was a hidden world inside. Chen Yuan flew deeper and deeper for a long time before finally arriving at the location of the Great Dao of Life.
"arrive."
Without needing any prompting, Chen Yuan immediately saw the true nature of the vast Dao of Life ahead.
Unlike any other Great Dao he had encountered before, in this mysterious place, the Great Dao of the Origin of Life was directly and concretely manifested.
Just as described in the original work, at first glance, Chen Yuan seemed to see an endless, winding giant dragon.
"This is the fundamental principle of life—"
Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up with a milky white light, and he stared at it all with fascination.
Even without collecting data through the system and the Primordial Eye, Chen Yuanguang can receive a large amount of information every minute and every second just by standing here.
Of course, even if he were to maximize his thinking speed and meditate here for an eternity, he would still find it difficult to grasp even a fraction of the profound mysteries within.
After all, this is the complete Great Dao of the Origin of Life, with all six branches gathered together, unlike any branch of the Great Dao he had seen before.
"How about that? Isn't it amazing?"
Di Yulu stood to the side and asked with a smile.
Chen Yuan stared intently, not even bothering to speak, and simply nodded.
Di Yulu didn't take the offensive behavior to heart and just smiled faintly.
Because not only Chen Yuan, but even when he first faced the Great Dao of Life, his obsession was no less than that of the other party, and perhaps even greater.
Therefore, he is very good at understanding the other person's behavior.
However, he still had some questions to ask, so he had to interrupt Chen Yuan and ask, "Due to the tight schedule, the World Beasts will be released in at most ten epochs."
"Yuan Chu, I also need you to give me a definite answer. How long will it take you to comprehend the Great Dao of Life?"
"Or perhaps your avatar will slowly comprehend this here, while your true body goes and destroys the Realm Beast first?"
Chen Yuan gently shook his head: "No rush. Comprehending the Great Dao requires a lot of my energy, and my physical body will be unable to move for the time being."
"But don't worry, I won't stay here for long, probably—"
He thought for a moment, then continued, "At most one era! I will leave and then help you exterminate the World Beasts."
"An era?" Di Yulu's eyes lit up. Such a short time?
He didn't bother to ask how much the other person could learn in such a short time, since the opportunity was only once, and besides, it was the other person who took the initiative to offer it.
Therefore, he had no intention of refusing and immediately said, "It's a deal. You can slowly ponder it, and I'll call you when the time comes."
"Hmm." Chen Yuan nodded and then focused his gaze on the front again.
Di Yulu smiled and left quietly without disturbing her further.
Unlike Chen Yuan, he was the controller of the primordial universe. As long as he was not troubled by the calamity of the world beasts, he could look at the Great Dao of Life whenever he wanted. The one era that was occupied was nothing to him.
Converted to the time it takes to reach the Origin Continent, it's only a short day.
He, Di Yulu, cultivated for a full 37,000 epochs before becoming a Chaos Great Sage, so he wouldn't care about a mere day.
On the other side, after noticing that Di Yulu had left, Chen Yuan silently opened the panel and instructed, "System, begin collecting all the data here."
[Data collection in progress. Current progress: Life Avenue 0.01% (expand to view the collection status of each branch), Destruction Avenue 0.01% (Dark Heaven lineage), Extreme Point Avenue 0.01% (Penetration lineage)]
"Um?"
Looking at the information displayed on the panel, Chen Yuan was taken aback and couldn't help but blink.
"Am I seeing things? Isn't this the Great Dao, the origin of life?"
His gaze was fixed on what was ahead, an incredulous expression on his face: "And where did the Path of Destruction and the Path of Extreme Point on this panel come from?"
