Orderly tyrant

In Lin Qing's perception, the energy hidden within this towering World God body was so vast that it was many times his own. Simply comparing the magnitude of energy, it was like the difference between a giant and an ant!

With such a massive amount of energy, even if it was only at the sixth energy level, the sheer quantity would make its power terrifying.

"Truly outrageous."

Lin Qing sighed, and then the distant Black Flame clone quickly moved away, observing this enormous World God body from mid-air.

From an outsider's perspective, this World God looked like a giant statue radiating light, resembling a human and also a pseudo-god body, but without wings.

However, the World God had a face and clear features, identical to his own, with a naked body that seemed to return to its original state, lacking gender characteristics.

Its head touched the sky, its feet stood in the void, and its body had nearly perfect proportions, standing approximately 2750 meters tall.

The original pseudo-god body wasn't even as tall as its toe!

Although at this level, a large size doesn't necessarily mean greater strength and might even be a disadvantage, being this huge was still outrageous.

Such a vast amount of energy, even if constrained and directed in one direction, would be astonishing, let alone condensed into a more profound World God body!

"Let's try..."

Lin Qing excitedly attempted to drive this World God body, using his own power as the center, pulling and drawing upon the World God's immense power.

Then, towards the Black Flame clone hundreds of kilometers away, he gently waved his arm—

"Boom!!"

The energy wandering in the void was brushed by the massive arm of the god body, like a giant whale swinging its tail in the deep sea. Countless wandering energies were immediately transformed into surging currents, and a massive energy storm like a tsunami erupted!

The Black Flame clone, hundreds of kilometers away, instantly transformed into a demon form, and the black flames all over its body burned fiercely, unleashing its strongest power.

Facing this overwhelming energy storm like a tsunami, the Black Flame clone desperately threw punches to resist it!

"Boom boom boom boom boom—!"

Countless fist shadows carrying immense power erupted, directly impacting the massive energy storm.

The tsunami storm instantly swept across hundreds of kilometers, and the countless fist shadows unleashed by the Black Flame clone only managed to shatter a few before being completely submerged by the tsunami-like energy!

"Rumble rumble rumble—"

The Black Flame clone struggled desperately, but in this sweeping energy storm, it was completely helpless, like a small boat facing a tsunami, instantly overwhelmed.

In an instant, the Black Flame clone was torn apart by the storm, collapsing on the spot and burning completely.

"It's gone just like that?"

Lin Qing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The Black Flame clone was also himself. He had personally experienced the power of the World God, so he naturally understood it very well.

"Truly terrifying..."

Lin Qing looked at the World God body's arm. "Just a wave from a distance has this kind of power?"

The energy storm formed by a wave from a distance was less than 10% of the power of the World God's body in close combat!

But even so, it easily annihilated the Black Flame clone!

"But thinking about it..."

Lin Qing thought carefully and felt it was normal. "The Black Flame clone doesn't have any defensive Holy Words. Relying on the Endless Divine Power Holy Word, it's considered top-tier strength in the fourth level of the Star Abyss, but its defense is at most barely at the fourth level..."

And what about his main body?

Before the World God body was formed, he was already able to sweep through the fifth level of the Star Abyss, equivalent to an outstanding figure in the fifth level of the Star Abyss.

Now that the World God body was formed, Lin Qing believed he could pass the sixth level of the Star Abyss.

With such a large gap, it's not strange to be annihilated with a wave from a distance.

"However, the power of this World God body is too vast, I clearly can't unleash it..."

Lin Qing sighed inwardly.

When driving this World God body just now, he clearly felt inadequate.

It was like a child wielding a large hammer. He could only unleash one or two tenths of the World God body's power.

There was no other way.

This World God body was like a behemoth with an extremely high life level. Although he could control it, he didn't understand this level of life form, didn't know how to unleash its maximum power, and didn't quite understand its structure and characteristics.

Just like ordinary people, who can only unleash a small amount of their own power.

"This requires slow research, gradually integrating the World God body into myself..."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly. "In terms of cognition and experience, I can only rely on the accumulation of time..."

Even with the Reverse Entropy user's advance payment, he still needed to learn.

If he had enough learning opportunities and experience in studying various life forms, he would naturally be able to quickly understand the characteristics and structure of the World God body and solve problems accordingly.

"Moreover, the process of forming the World God body took too long. I'm afraid there won't be enough time in battle. I must prepare in advance..."

Lin Qing silently summarized the advantages, disadvantages, and shortcomings of this divine skill.

If it were one of the four great divine skills, it could be cast instantly and used in battle.

But the World God body, with the four great divine skills as its core, also needed to attract and gather an extremely vast amount of energy to form such a powerful body.

This naturally took time.

"It's impossible to interrupt the World God's attraction of energy when fighting low-level enemies, but it's hard to say for enemies that are too strong..."

Lin Qing frowned slightly.

And the only solution to this problem was—

To integrate the World God body into his own body in advance, hide it, and then release it directly when it needed to be formed, so there was no need to worry about being interrupted by the enemy.

After all, this World God body had layers upon layers of pseudo-god domains, and also affected space, so it could naturally achieve mustard seed containing Sumeru.

As long as his own life structure was compatible enough with the World God body, the vast energy could be completely hidden within his own body.

"It also takes time and learning..."

Lin Qing couldn't help but sigh. "Even if time is accelerated enough, I still need enough samples and systematic courses for research and learning..."

What he lacked most now was time. Earth hadn't yet connected to the starry sky, and he, who hadn't signed a contract to sell himself to an extraterrestrial civilization, had nowhere to go to study research courses on high-level life forms.

"Forget it, being able to unleash one or two tenths of the power is not bad..."

Lin Qing took a deep breath. "Being able to pass the sixth level of the Star Abyss before becoming a Primordial Divine Professional is already beyond the imagination of a first-level civilization, right..."

His gene optimization index was much higher than others at the same level.

Coupled with this terrifying World God body, even if it was only a semi-finished product, it was shocking enough.

Generally, Primordial Divine Professionals are only at the fourth level of the Star Abyss, unless they have multiple suitable combinations of Holy Words, then it is possible to reach the fifth level of the Star Abyss.

And he, who wasn't even a Primordial Divine Professional, was already at the sixth level of the Star Abyss!

If this was said, it would be enough to completely dumbfound many first-level civilizations.

"Eight hundred and twenty days... I can still cultivate for a while, and then study how to integrate the World God body. Even a little effect is fine..."

Lin Qing immediately created a Black Flame clone again and began to burn to improve his comprehension.

However, this kind of closed-door cultivation was obviously very inefficient.

Half a month later, Lin Qing discovered that he had only slightly understood a trace of the World God body, and could only unleash a few percent more of its power, and the progress was already negligible.

And it was far from hiding the World God within himself. He couldn't even integrate a finger of the World God, so he simply gave up.

……

"You came out so quickly?"

On the silver-white platform in the endless dark vacuum, the black-haired woman 'Her Highness Su' in a golden dress sized up Lin Qing and asked, "Did you give up?"

"Yes." Lin Qing nodded slightly and sighed helplessly, "Integrating the World God body is too difficult. My knowledge reserve and experience are far from enough. There's no point in staying here."

"What?"

Her Highness Su was stunned. "Integrate the World God body? You succeeded in cultivation??"

Lin Qing looked at her with some confusion and said, "I thought you could see the situation in the cultivation room. Didn't you see me trying the World God body?"

"You are a citizen of the Beginning Realm after all. The cultivation room is your private space, of course I can't see it." Her Highness Su couldn't help but say, "World God... You really succeeded in cultivation?"

"Yes." Lin Qing nodded, too lazy to demonstrate on the spot. It was too troublesome to condense and form it once.

Her Highness Su could tell that he wasn't lying, and couldn't help but be more surprised: "This is too strange. Is your comprehension so strong? A life born on a planet, who has never seen anything, actually has such comprehension?"

"Good luck, I had an epiphany." Lin Qing said casually.

"Good luck can explain it..." Her Highness Su sized up Lin Qing, "However, luck is the universe's favor. I can't see that. You can go to the No. 5 Ruins and try. The better the luck, the greater the benefits you get."

"Oh?" Lin Qing asked curiously, "Can luck be changed?"

"Of course."

Her Highness Su said: "Normally, the stronger your strength and the higher your talent, the stronger the universe's favor for you, and naturally the better your luck. There are also some special circumstances involving the origin of the universe that may also improve luck."

She paused, "However, the Divine Positions of the Universe God series also have methods to improve luck in the Star phase."

"Oh? What is the Divine Position of the Universe God series called in the Star phase?" Lin Qing asked curiously.

The foundation of the Universe God series Divine Position is 'Walking Under the Gods', the Primordial phase is 'God Child', what about the Star phase?

"It's called 'Star God'." Her Highness Su said.

"Star God..."

Lin Qing nodded slightly.

"I advise you to ask less about these high-level names." Her Highness Su advised, "You don't even know the true name of the mysterious energy in your body. Knowing too much will only be a disaster."

"What level is qualified to know?" Lin Qing couldn't help but ask.

"It doesn't need to be too high."

Her Highness Su said, "As long as it's a Star being, when you transform into a star and your consciousness is as solid as a star, you don't need to worry about this risk."

Lin Qing nodded thoughtfully.

This mysterious energy is the origin of all transcendence. Gene evolution, telekinesis, and even the awakening of authority will involve this mysterious energy, and it can also absorb external energy to constantly evolve.

"Your comprehension is so high, it's somewhat unexpected."

Her Highness Su sized up Lin Qing and said, "You should have no problem participating in the God Child Trial now. As long as you don't have too bad luck, then you will almost certainly succeed."

"Too bad luck?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.

"For example... In a God Child Trial with only a hundred people, you might encounter a top genius from a second-level civilization." Her Highness Su said with a smile, "Then there's no way."

Lin Qing couldn't help but ask, "What is the approximate level of a top genius from a second-level civilization?"

"It's your current level, mastering a set of combinable perfect divine skills."

Her Highness Su said, "But the gene optimization index of this kind of genius will definitely be much higher than yours, so it's normal for you not to be an opponent, but... Even among the Walking Under the Gods of second-level civilizations, this kind of top genius is one in ten thousand."

Lin Qing felt a slight relief in his heart upon hearing this.

One in ten thousand?

Competing with a hundred Walking Under the Gods and encountering this kind of top genius is less than a 1% chance.

If he could encounter this, then he would have nothing to say.

"In a second-level civilization, being able to become a Walking Under the Gods is considered a genius, so they generally can master one or two divine skills."

Her Highness Su said casually, "The more powerful ones will master more divine skills, and the Holy Word combination is not bad. In fact, this kind has a certain hope of success."

She glanced at Lin Qing and smiled: "Anyway, the average second-level civilization genius is definitely not as good as you. It's not difficult for you to get first place."

Lin Qing felt much more relaxed and happy, and said half-jokingly, "Then maybe I'll encounter a genius from a third-level civilization?"

"Don't worry, it's impossible." Her Highness Su shook her head.

"Impossible?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.

"Don't even mention the God Child Trial, even in the Star God Trial in the Star phase, it's impossible for you to encounter a genius from a third-level civilization." Her Highness Su said with certainty.

Lin Qing was finally relieved.

According to the words of the Sky Island Guardian, before he had mastered the divine skill, he could only barely be considered an elite level of a second-level civilization.

He now understood the reason.

——The difference in gene optimization index was too great. Even if he was a Walking Under the Gods, and at that time he even displayed a level higher of strength, the advantage was not too great, so naturally he could only be considered an elite.

Only after mastering a powerful divine skill could he be called a genius of a second-level civilization.

If he mastered a perfect combination divine skill like World God, then he would be a top genius of a second-level civilization, one in ten thousand!

The Sky Island Guardian probably never thought... That he could actually master 'World God', right?

No wonder the Sky Island Guardian thought he had no hope of passing the 'God Child' Trial.

If he only mastered one or two divine skills, or even mastered a few more divine skills, with his past gene optimization index, he would definitely not be able to compete with those geniuses from second-level civilizations.

"Give you a suggestion."

Her Highness Su suddenly said, "You can master World God, although you can only unleash one or two tenths of the power, it's already very amazing. It's also a genius among geniuses in the second-level civilization. This comprehension is very abnormal."

She looked at Lin Qing and said, "When you participate in the God Child Trial, don't reveal that you're from a Tier 1 civilization. Otherwise, if those from Tier 2 civilizations find out you have no background, they might investigate you, and who knows what they'll do to you then."

Lin Qing nodded slightly. "I wasn't planning to reveal it anyway."

He understood this principle.

If he could become a Star Godhood holder, as a Tier 3 cosmic citizen, a Tier 1 civilization wouldn't be able to bind him with contracts.

But Tier 2 civilizations were different.

Tier 2 civilizations definitely had Tier 4 cosmic citizens who could create Tier 4 or even higher-level contracts to bind him.

"That's not enough; you'll definitely be discovered…"

Princess Su pondered for a moment and said, "I have an idea. I'll open the Bronze Demon Mountain on Earth ahead of schedule."

"Bronze Demon Mountain?" Lin Qing was slightly taken aback.

According to the information Princess Su had given him, the relic that Earthlings referred to as Relic No. 6 was called the Bronze Demon Mountain, but Earth had never been able to enter it.

Now he knew the reason.

—Because Earth hadn't been opened up yet and hadn't truly connected with the starry sky.

And the purpose of the Bronze Demon Mountain was very simple.

The reason it was called the Demon Mountain was that it contained various demonic temptations. If one's will wasn't strong enough, they would fall into the Demon Mountain.

This relic was a place to test and temper one's will.

However…

The ultimate purpose of the Bronze Demon Mountain was to provide 'Reception Imprints' from various Tier 2 civilizations.

Tier 2 civilizations were hidden in void secret realms that gathered the origin of the universe, so Tier 1 civilizations couldn't even find them.

But with the Reception Imprint, one could enter the void secret realm of a Tier 2 civilization.

Tier 2 civilizations had connections with each other. For Tier 2 civilizations, going to the void secret realm of another Tier 2 civilization was like going abroad, and the Reception Imprint was like a visa.

One had to have a Reception Imprint containing a trace of void origin to enter other void secret realms.

And the reward for passing the trials of the Bronze Demon Mountain was the granting of Reception Imprints from various civilization secret realms.

It was also considered an extremely important relic treasure land.

He hadn't expected Princess Su to be willing to open it early for him?

Lin Qing could feel it…

The last time he displayed extraordinary comprehension in the Star Secret Vault, the intelligence of the Star Secret Vault had also favored him more and had proactively exchanged two better treasures for him.

It was the same this time.

It seemed…

That kind of comprehension that could fuse divine skills seemed to be more important than he had imagined?

"The existence of the Bronze Demon Mountain is to give you descendants a chance."

Princess Su said softly, "People from Tier 1 civilizations have low gene optimization indices, low comprehension, and low talent… The environment they come from isn't good. It's normal for these aspects to be inferior to those of Tier 2 civilizations."

"But mental will is different. Because Tier 2 civilizations have too superior environments, they don't have to worry about making a living from birth. As natural primitive beings, they don't even need to temper their will. In terms of the mind, they are generally very ordinary."

She said, "And the Bronze Demon Mountain is to give you a chance. As long as your will is strong enough, you have a chance to train in a Tier 2 civilization and make up for other shortcomings."

Lin Qing nodded slightly, understanding her meaning.

Although most people yearn for equality for all, everyone understands that it's impossible for people to be equal.

Background, genes, talent, environment, opportunities… As long as there is an advantage, it may be seen as a kind of inequality by others, and they will ask in their hearts: Why?

But that's how the world is.

And the Bronze Demon Mountain provides a chance to make up for it.

"As long as you obtain a Reception Imprint in the Bronze Demon Mountain, you don't have to worry about those from Tier 2 civilizations discovering that you're from a Tier 1 civilization."

Princess Su said, "The void origin aura of the Reception Imprint is very obvious. Generally, only a few people in Tier 2 civilizations are qualified to obtain a Reception Imprint, which is enough to conceal your identity."

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

It was like in the old days, most people never went abroad in their entire lives.

"I see that your will is quite strong."

Princess Su sized up Lin Qing. "It seems you've experienced true life and death? If you can temper yourself more in the Bronze Demon Mountain, your will should become very strong."

"I'll try my best," Lin Qing smiled slightly.

Although he hadn't lived long, he had experienced a lot.

He had experienced the deaths of relatives and friends, the various disasters of the apocalypse, the betrayals and deceptions that endangered his life, and true death and rebirth…

It wasn't that the longer one lived, the more firm one's will became. It was normal to become more fragile.

Some things would never be understood without experiencing them.

It was like many people didn't know what true death felt like. Even those with the ability to resurrect knew that they would definitely be resurrected, which wasn't true death at all. How much tempering effect did it have on their will?

"I've helped you as much as I can. The rest is up to you."

Princess Su reminded, "By the way, as a citizen of the Beginning Realm, you can come here once after each transformation of your life level."

"Oh?" Lin Qing smiled and immediately said, "Thank you."

"It's what you deserve," Princess Su shook her head slightly. "If the Beginning Realm only had this cemetery and some relics left, you should have received more."

Lin Qing didn't say anything but said, "I'm leaving."

Next, after going to Relic No. 6, the 'Bronze Demon Mountain,' it was time to participate in the Primal-grade Godhood Trial.
