Chapter 355 The Inferiority Complex of the Beast
"Who?! Who devoured your miniature universe so quickly?!"
Morosa's two heads tensed simultaneously, a chilling green light flashing in his single eye, his voice filled with disbelief and rage.
"Could it be Brady? He's broken through to the fourth level?!"
These words sent a shiver down the spines of both Lord Hao Lei and Ancestral God Qiu Yan.
Brady!
That was a top-tier third-order world beast, on par with Morosa, and they had always been at odds, fighting each other and trying to devour one another.
But Morosa was puzzled again after he finished speaking.
"No—it can't be a World Beast. Even if it breaks through to the sixth rank, let alone the fourth rank, I can still sense the mutual attraction between World Beasts."
"What on earth is going on?!"
Morosa couldn't believe it.
Beasts of the realm are born to devour each other and give birth to the ultimate king. They can sense each other and even communicate telepathically, no matter how far apart they are.
Therefore, Morosa was so certain just now that no Beast of the Realm had left the Dark Land.
But if it's not a Beast of the Realm, then what is it? Could it really be—
"No—it's not a World Beast!"
King Zhenjia trembled violently, his voice broken like a candle flickering in the wind, his eyes filled with extreme terror: "My miniature universe—wasn't swallowed! It was—was brutally shattered by the powerful beings of the Cosmic Sea!"
"What?! It wasn't swallowed up?"
"You mean you got blown up?! Are you kidding me? That was a miniature universe!"
These words instantly shocked Lord Hao Lei and Ancestral God Qiu Yan, their faces filled with incredulous horror, as if they had heard the most absurd joke in the world.
"Beated to pieces?!" Qiuyan Ancestral God screamed in disbelief, his divine body convulsing uncontrollably.
"This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! A miniature universe is the foundation of a true god, indestructible. Even if beings beyond reincarnation have been born within the cosmic sea, there has never been a record of a miniature universe being destroyed. How could it possibly be blasted apart?!"
Lord Hao Lei was also dumbfounded, his mind blank.
His miniature universe was destroyed, but he subconsciously still felt it was the work of the World Beast. However, King Zhenjia said it was destroyed by a powerful being in the cosmic sea.
How is that possible? Even the current world beasts can't do that!
"Nonsense!"
Morosa's two heads erupted in fury, the eerie green light in his single eye almost solidifying, and the terrifying pressure emanating from him nearly suffocated the three of them.
"Those weak creatures in the cosmic sea can't even sense the laws of chaos; transcending reincarnation is incredibly difficult for them. How dare they talk about destroying a miniature universe?! You're lying! Did Bedi send you to provoke me?!"
Morosa's first reaction was that these people were lying.
Destroying a miniature universe would require even a Tier 5 World Beast to pay the price of its origin in order to unleash a top-tier Tier 12 attack.
It is absolutely impossible to destroy a small universe and then immediately destroy a second small universe.
It absolutely refused to believe that those cultivators, whom it considered mere food, could possess such heaven-defying combat power.
It knew better than anyone the resilience of a miniature universe. Even a fifth-order world beast would need to use its full strength to tear it apart, let alone "explode" it.
That means the opponent's power has surpassed that of an ordinary Void God!
It is likely that only a sixth-tier world beast could barely contend with it.
How could there be such a troublesome person in the Cosmic Sea?
"Your subordinate dares not lie!" King Zhenjia cried out as he kowtowed, his forehead trembling as he struck the ground.
"Just now, I used the Heart of the True God to protect my miniature universe, only to find it heading straight for it!"
"That man shattered my miniature universe core with just one punch! And destroyed all my people at the same time."
Having said that, he endured the excruciating pain and conjured up a phantom image.
In the scene, a blurry figure stepped through the air, his aura condensed, and he threw a punch.
There were no earth-shattering phenomena, only pure, extreme power. The moment it crashed down, the entire miniature universe shattered and vanished like fragile glass, disappearing into the endless chaotic currents.
After completing all this, King Zhenjia collapsed in the black mist, his breath extremely weak.
Morosa stared at the phantom, the single eye on each of its two heads contracting simultaneously, revealing for the first time an undisguised look of horror. "This—how is this possible?!"
It simply couldn't believe that such a person existed in the Cosmic Sea!
"Your Majesty! Even if I had the greatest courage in the world, I wouldn't dare to joke with my own life!" King Zhenjia was filled with grievance, tears streaming down his face. "Destroying a miniature universe is tantamount to cutting off one's own path to survival. How could I do such a suicidal thing?!"
"Damn it! I only have eight hundred billion years left to live!"
'
King Zhenjia beat his chest and stamped his feet, his voice filled with despair and heartache, feeling that death was so close.
The miniature universe is not only the sanctuary of the true god race, but also the foundation of the true god. Without the miniature universe, the true god is like a rootless duckweed, unable to advance any further!
This is tantamount to a death sentence!
Although King Zhenjia did not believe he could transcend reincarnation, at least he had something to look forward to. Although his lifespan of eight hundred billion years was short, it was close to one cycle of reincarnation, which was enough for him to try again.
But now that his miniature universe has been destroyed, he has no chance of transcending reincarnation, and his life is destined to end here.
"No—! My miniature universe!"
A bloodcurdling scream suddenly erupted again. It was Qiuyan Ancestral God screaming in terror, "It's—it's the same person! He shattered my miniature universe core with one strike—and another! My people—they're all gone!"
Morosa and his two companions were struck as if by a thunderbolt, and froze on the spot.
The small universe of Lord Hao Lei was destroyed, King Zhen Jia's was blown up, and now even the Ancestral God Qiu Yan has not escaped.
Three destructions followed one after another, with pinpoint accuracy.
In an instant, the three strongest beings in the universe, the true gods who had traversed three eras of reincarnation, all became lonely figures, with no more chance to transcend reincarnation.
Although the master of the universe, or even the top cosmic overlord, can survive in the cosmic ocean.
From ordinary life forms to the rulers of the universe, none can control themselves.
If we live in the primordial universe, then the origin of life lies in the primordial universe.
The life forms of the first and second cycles reside in miniature universes!
Once the mini-universe collapses, all life residing in that mini-universe will perish.
"Damn it, that person is after the three of us!" Lord Hao Lei roared in a low voice, his voice filled with disbelief and horror.
"There are so many small universes in the universe, yet they have continuously destroyed the small universes of the three of us—" At this point, all three of them couldn't help but tremble.
What do the three of them have in common?
They sought refuge with the Beast Realm.
They were all traitors to the Cosmic Sea. In order to survive, they abandoned the Cosmic Sea and submitted to the Beasts of the Realm.
This series of destructions is clearly a precise reckoning, a warning!
"Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened!"
Lord Hao Lei suddenly turned to Morosa and kowtowed repeatedly, his voice filled with urgency and panic.
"They're targeting us traitors who betrayed us by siding with the Realm Beasts! Their real target is the Realm Beast race!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
King Zhenjia quickly chimed in, "The three of us, without exception, betrayed the Cosmic Sea and pledged allegiance to the True God! He is purging traitors and declaring war on the Realm Beasts!"
The Ancestral God Qiuyan added in a trembling voice, "That person's strength is terrifying to the extreme; he could shatter a miniature universe with just one punch! He must know of the existence of the World Beasts and is declaring war!"
The three men's words resounded like a series of thunderclaps in Morosa's mind.
Morosa was still reeling from the shock that the Cosmic Sea contained something capable of shattering a small universe, but after the three of them spoke, the eerie green light in his one eye was instantly replaced by panic.
An entity capable of destroying miniature universes at will—is declaring war on the Beasts of the Realm?
Morosa felt a chill rush from his tailbone straight to his head, and the black mist all over his body began to surge and churn in disarray.
It knew all too well the fatal weakness of the Beast Clan.
Once a great Beast King is born, even in its infancy, it may only be at the Void True God level, but its combat power is at the Eternal True God level, enough to sweep across the universe.
But that was based on the fusion of a billion world beasts!
Only through the battles, devouring, and complete fusion of a billion Beast Realm beasts can a Beast Realm King be born.
In addition, they must combine their attacks to unleash power that surpasses that of ordinary eternal gods!
But the Beasts are a race that is born to devour their own kind and follow the law of the jungle!
From the day they were born, they fought and devoured each other, all for the sake of becoming the sole king.
Should we get them to join forces and attack together?
It's even harder than destroying the original universe!
Although the Beast Clan still numbers in the tens of millions, they are not afraid of even the Eternal God if they join forces to attack.
They hate each other so much they want to devour each other alive. Let alone working together to resist foreign enemies, it would be good enough if they didn't stab each other in the back during the chaos.
The opponent was able to shatter miniature universes with a single blow, and repeatedly at that, indicating a strength at least surpassing that of an ordinary Void God.
This is at least a level that only a sixth-tier world beast can contend with!
Such a powerful being, if specifically targeting the Beast Clan, might even seize the opportunity to invade the Dark Lands—
Morosa's two heads trembled violently at the same time, and for the first time, the emotion called "fear" appeared in his eyes.
"Damn it! Damn the Cosmic Sea!" Morosa roared, the black mist churning even more violently. "Who does he think he is? Can he wipe out the World Beast race all by himself? He's delusional!"
The Beast race considers itself the supreme being in the universe and is extremely arrogant. Even true gods or those who have transcended reincarnation are nothing more than food to nourish themselves in their eyes, and they would never give them a second glance.
Each of them saw themselves as the only king.
As a king, one must naturally be able to become an ultimate god-king.
But now, a "food" dares to provoke us? This is an extreme humiliation to the Beast Clan!
Enraged, Morosa's gaze fell upon the three distraught servants, his tone icy: "Tell me, who is that man? Give me all his information!"
Even with its pride, it had to admit that the cosmic sea had become extremely dangerous.
After all, it and Bedi have only just entered the third tier.
"Your Majesty! That man is named Xu Qing, a human from this cycle of the primordial universe, who has recently broken through to the True God Realm!" Lord Hao Lei kowtowed repeatedly, his voice filled with fear and awe.
"This cycle? Just broke through to True God?!" Morosa's one eye shrank sharply, filled with disbelief. "Only two trillion epochs have passed in this cycle, yet such a terrifying monster has been born?"
"More than just a monster!" King Zhenjia, though barely breathing, couldn't hide the horror in his eyes. "His cultivation time was only 100,000 years! From a mortal life to breaking through to true godhood, it's only a hundred thousand years at most!"
"One hundred thousand years?!"
Morosa's two heads suddenly tensed, his single eye shrank to the size of a pinhead, and the churning black mist around him instantly froze.
Its deep voice, trembling uncontrollably, boomed like thunder: "Say it again? Only 100,000 years?!"
The Ancestral God Qiuyan echoed in a trembling voice, "Absolutely true! The news from the Cosmic Sea cannot be wrong! Ten thousand years is not even a fraction of a single cycle of reincarnation!"
"Ten thousand years—" Morosa murmured repeatedly, his body surrounded by surging black mist, the pressure emanating from him almost suffocating the three of them.
The Beast Clan has thrived here for trillions of epochs. Hundreds of millions of their kind are born true gods. They do not need to cultivate hard; they can advance to the second or third tier simply by devouring their own kind.
Even so, not a single fourth-tier world beast has been born to date.
Yet a human being, born in the cosmic sea where even the laws of chaos are difficult to perceive, reached at least the limit of a Void True God in just 100,000 years.
"Great King, there is one more thing—" Lord Hao Lei was silent for a while before saying, "Before Xu Qing broke through to True God, he had never set foot in the Cosmic Sea and had been lying dormant in the Primordial Universe."
"Never been to the cosmic ocean?!"
"How could someone who has been working in seclusion in that godforsaken place for 100,000 years possibly possess such power?" Morosa's eyes were filled with absurdity and disbelief, and he almost doubted that he had misheard.
The primordial universe was merely the cradle of life.
The treasures that can be created are at most at the level of a Universe Venerable. If such a thing appeared in the cosmic sea, it would probably dissolve into the chaotic air currents in an instant.
The three lackeys before it had also gone through countless battles in the cosmic sea, acquiring various precious treasures and fortuitous encounters, and it took them more than 200 billion billion years to reach the top level of the eighth rank.
But now someone is telling Morosa that in the barren land of the primordial universe, Xu Qing became the limit of the Void True God in 100,000 years?
Is this even human?!
Are you a Beast of the Realm, or am I?
For the first time, Morosa felt an urge to swear.
The Beast race has devoured each other for trillions of epochs, yet tens of millions of its kind still survive. It took it more than a hundred thousand years to hunt down a single second-tier Beast!
At this rate of devouring, it would probably take another hundred billion years for the Beast Clan to produce a fourth-tier powerhouse, let alone a fifth or sixth-tier one.
The birth of sixth-order world beasts, and their normal mutual devouring, will probably only be completed when the world beast race is close to the great destruction of the original universe, so that a single king can emerge and then devour the original universe!
But Xu Qing actually reached the limit of the Void True God in the primordial universe in 100,000 years?
This is fucking—this is simply—
As a third-order world beast, Morosa considered himself a born king and looked down on all true gods as ants.
But at this moment, faced with Xu Qing's talent, Morosa inexplicably felt a sense of frustration and inferiority.
"Could it be that we really have to cooperate with Bedi and the others to defeat Xu Qing?" Morosa frowned.
