Chapter 776 A Universe Without Enemies (6000)

Su Zhou had never seriously cultivated the Divine Art, Scales of the World.

After the Free Samsara World created a personal space, all Su Zhou did was constantly throw things into it – spiritual objects, divine trees – until the five elements were balanced and elemental circulation was achieved.

This was not strange, because at that time, he had not taken on the ambition and determination of a world. Even if he had focused on cultivation, it would have been impossible to succeed.

In that case, it was better to treat it as a portable dimensional bag.

But as time passed, Su Zhou experienced more and more adventures, and defeated more and more enemies, his personal space became larger and larger.

But what grew the most was his will.

Now, Su Zhou knew what was right, and had the determination to bear the burden of a world, and his power was already sufficient.

In that case, cultivating the Scales of the World only required an opportunity.

Just like what happened just now.

Having obtained all the essential inheritances of the Scales of the World from Yala, what Su Zhou did was not just to see through some loopholes in the Bell of World Proclamation.

Even he knew that even with Yala's possession, a Heavenly Venerate at the peak could not contend with a Dao Harmonization expert controlling a Dao Harmonization Armament when they were serious.

Therefore, what Su Zhou truly did was to rely on ringing the Bell of World Proclamation to temper himself and his personal space with the bell's sound, unifying all the originally scattered objects in his personal space, and truly catalyzing his personal space into the Scales of the World.

Just like now.

At some point, Su Zhou, who had been in his personal space, was now in a hazy, misty, and peculiar space.

Everywhere he looked, above, below, and all around, were layers of rotating, faintly glowing rune-covered scale phantoms, like glass or crystal, reflecting an entire world.

Countless scales formed a vast space rotating around Su Zhou, spherical and constantly flowing. Wherever he looked, there were shadows of worlds and hazy runes.

And Su Zhou stood at the center of this strange space, holding up his right hand. A miniature continent, as if built on a scale, hovered in his palm.

A Buddha-realm in the palm, Sumeru within a mustard seed, a universe in a sleeve, heaven and earth in the heart.

This Divine Art might have had many names in the distant past, and derived many different Great Divine Arts that did not belong to Chaos – but what Su Zhou held now was one of the genuine supreme inheritances of Chaos, the 'Scales of the World.'

Su Zhou's eyes were half-open. All the mysteries and divine effects of the Scales of the World flowed into his heart like water. In a brief moment, he completely understood all the functions of this Great Divine Art.

At this moment, Su Zhou's personal space had completely become a part of his true spirit – in other words, a part of his soul structure.

Even if, in the future, the youth died unexpectedly (referring to the cooldown period of the Undying Blood Resurrection, and all immortal methods were失效), and had to reincarnate, even if his personal space fell into silence, it would not dissipate. Instead, it would follow Su Zhou's true spirit in reincarnation, and gradually break free from silence as Su Zhou's reincarnated body gradually broke through the mystery of the womb, and finally completely awaken and unseal when Su Zhou returned.

In this way, even if reincarnated, Su Zhou still had the foundation to make a comeback, as well as his most core accumulation, which could help him return to his former peak state as quickly as possible – another kind of immortal rebirth, only more difficult and more hidden.

This was almost equivalent to eternal proof with one, a supreme Divine Art that could not be erased except by those who far surpassed the practitioner by one or two major realms.

Of course, in general, beings of Chaos would not fall to this point. If they really did, they would at most be sealed. No one would really intend to kill a Heavenly Venerate who could cultivate a supreme Divine Art. After all, killing them and having them revive at full strength was not as good as sealing them, so that they could enjoy tens of thousands of years of peace.

In addition, the ring of scale space rotating around Su Zhou now was the embodiment of the power of the personal space.

Its sturdiness was comparable to the world barriers solidified by experts. It was difficult for ordinary Heavenly Venerates to break through, let alone harm Su Zhou behind it – and even if this layer of world barrier was broken, it would not be possible to harm the personal space, because the body of the personal space was in Su Zhou's palm.

The two intertwined and circulated, like a Ouroboros.

"Scales of the World, so that's how it is."

Opening his eyes, Su Zhou exhaled. He had cultivated this Great Divine Art, and there were no other doubts in his heart.

And just before, when he extinguished the Dao Sound and rang the Bell of World Proclamation, Su Zhou also roughly understood what the Dark Abyss Dao intended to do.

Obviously, as one of the Ten Heavenly God Systems, the Dark Abyss Dao also knew that the will of the Great Universe was awakening, and the End Calamity was about to begin.

However, compared to other God Systems that were trying to stop the End Calamity, or even intending to turn the power of the Great Universe's will into their own, the Dark Abyss Dao's idea was very negative, salted fish, and could even be said to be unambitious.

They simply wanted to gather all beings of Chaos, go to their small universe, Morotian, and then drive Morotian away from the World of Creation.

This time, the Dao Sound was essentially a notification to the entire universe, containing the space-time secret key directly to the interior of Morotian. Therefore, all non-Chaos beings who eavesdropped would be attacked by the Dao Sound, to prevent the secrets in the notification from leaking.

Generally speaking, no one would force themselves to eavesdrop on this obviously confidential Dao Sound, and even if they wanted to listen, they would not be able to hear it.

But Su Zhou was special. The essence of his personal space was the Scales of the World, but he was not a pure being of Chaos. Therefore, it not only strengthened the power of the Dao Sound, but also caused the Dao Sound to attack him.

Although it sounded like the Dark Abyss Dao's plan was inferior, and could not be compared to the Creation God System, which wanted to create the correct aggregate, let alone the Bureau of Balance Dao, which wanted to create the incarnation of the Great Universe's will.

But in fact, the Dark Abyss Dao was not without strength.

On the contrary, the Dark Abyss Dao alliance, with the power of the Four Heavenly God Systems, was so powerful that even the entire universe had to respect their authority – if they wanted to, they could definitely formulate a grand plan no less inferior than other God Systems.

It was just... unnecessary.

The Ten Heavenly God Systems were the rulers of the universe. They were rulers, pursuers of what was correct, and beings of many great existences.

Even more so, they were ‘gods’ who loved all living beings.

The awakening of the Great Universe's will in the World of Creation was because the original God System, the Creation Ring, had created ten small universes. And the End Calamity was the backlash against this miracle of creation, or rather, the 'price of balance'.

The first End Calamity destroyed almost all the native life in the entire universe. The myriad races that still existed were only able to survive because the gods at that time tried their best to preserve them in the Ark of Salvation. Even so, they had to accept the divine power modification of the gods, otherwise, it would have been impossible to survive in that devastating environment.

Tens of millions of years had passed. Now, the World of Creation was once again prosperous and thriving. The trajectory of the divine power network had even spread to the other side of the outer universe void, and was about to become a truly multi-universe-level spectacle. Everyone lived in the Datong world, without troubles or worries. If it were not for wanting to strive upwards, anyone could enjoy themselves for a lifetime, like the Devas of the Heavenly Human Path.

Such a world would be in vain if it encountered the End Calamity.

Most of the fruits of civilization created by all races would rot and fall.

Everything was because of the ten supreme creations of the distant past.

Why should these myriad living beings who were born later pay the price for the plans and mistakes of their ancestors millions of years ago?

These gods might need to bear the responsibility, but other lives did not need to.

Therefore, the Four Heavenly God Systems, led by the Dark Abyss Dao, Nirvana, Samsara, and Limit Dao, although they had different reasons, had all decided to lead the small universe to the void, completely shaking off the gradually awakening will of the Great Universe of the World of Creation – when they solved the survival problems of their subordinates, the gods of these four God Systems would return to their homeland again, return to the World of Creation, and fight against the End Calamity like their ancestors.

If they failed, they would die and their Dao would be extinguished, as it should be.

If they succeeded, then they would continue to create, in this empty World of Creation, once again creating a prosperous world, until the arrival of the third End Calamity.

Creation and ending – the end of the old era, and the beginning of the new era, and continuous creation.

"These beings of Chaos can be considered to have a bit of what beings of Chaos should be like."

Yala rarely gave a high evaluation of the Dark Abyss Dao, or rather, the entire plan of the Ten Heavenly God Systems: "Knowing that they should prioritize all living beings, that's what gods with brains should do – what's the point of correctness if it can't be put to good use?"

"Even beings of Chaos should love all living beings first, and then practice the path of Chaos. Only then can they be considered beings of our 'Great Existence', instead of just some extreme guys who understand a rough idea and deviate from the path!"

[Of course, it would be even better if they could take care of loving all living beings while practicing our correctness]

The World Tree also nodded slightly. He was obviously quite satisfied with this, and could even be said to be moved: [Great Dao, Chaos, what do you think?]

[Not bad] This was the Great Dao Tree's response: [They are all good children]

"Saying it's not bad, but the problem is big." This was Yala's response. He questioned: "Don't forget, whether it's the Beginning Dao or the Bureau of Balance Dao, what they're doing is very likely to create the prototype of a 'monster'."

"You may not be clear, but in fact, Su Zhou has already killed two monster prototypes. And whether it was the Solar Emperor of the Aean World or the Void Sect Leader of the Sealed Universe, there were great existences led by creation behind them."

Su Zhou nodded slightly. Whether it was the Spirit-Burning Torch or the Stardust, a special Divine Art, there was guidance from 'creation' in essence. Without the direct inheritance of creation, it would have been impossible for the Solar Emperor and the Void Sect Leader to reach their realm.

Yala shook his head as he said this: "You may just want to know why your paths are missing, but I intend to personally ask that guy from creation what he intends to do by creating monster prototypes so persistently."

[But in the end, they haven't created monsters yet] And the World Tree reminded: [Who can say that they are destined to fail? If these children really create a 'correct prototype' that can integrate the power of all the great existences, a real 'perfect being', this would also be a very exciting result for us]

"What if they fail?"

The Serpent Spirit always questioned and doubted: "If they fail, wouldn't it still be all living beings who suffer? Even the correct path, the correct idea, cannot guarantee that the wrong bitter fruit will not be bred after failure."

"Then let me do it."

Hearing this, Su Zhou interjected. He said steadily: "Then let me destroy those failed monsters, as the final guarantee – whether their plan succeeds or not, I will do my best to eliminate those monsters."

"Isn't that why I came to this Primordial World?"

[Good!][Well said!]"I've been waiting for you to say that!"

Then, the youth heard the three great existences' eyes light up at the same time, and they agreed in unison.

Su Zhou: "?"

What were these three old antiques doing?

Could it be that the previous ones were all inducements? Did they still think he was really afraid of monsters?

"No, the main thing is to see if you have the awareness."

The Serpent Spirit lay on Su Zhou's shoulder, shaking his head and swaying: "The previous adventures, from the Divine Wood World to the Aean World, all had 'obvious' villains."

"Whether it was the National Teacher Demon Emperor, or the Water God Matthew, including the Spirit Summoning Society of the Sealed Universe, the Deep Space Callers, the Six Paths Heavenly Demons, and the Void Order and the Solar Emperor later, all were clear and unmistakable 'enemies of all living beings' who, if they didn't die, everyone would suffer."

"It is known that those kind of fellows should be smashed into pieces even for a twelve-year-old elementary school student. After all, Ultraman will also blast the monsters to scattered explosions in the end – but this world is different, Su Zhou, I think you have also noticed it."

"Indeed." Su Zhou lowered his head. He looked at the Scales of the World that were slowly rotating in his palm, and the Teng Snake Soul that was turning his head blankly in his personal space.

The youth shook his head slightly and said, "This World of Creation gives me the feeling that it is very peaceful."

"None of the Ten Heavenly God Systems are bad people in the traditional sense – even the Beginning Dao and Bureau of Balance Dao God Systems that are pursuing Shao Shuangyue, pursuing Zhuzhou, and pursuing Star Fire, for now, are only pursuing, not hunting."

"Judging from what Yin and Bai said, and the encounter of Dechimus's lover, even if they are caught, there probably won't be any bad treatment. At most, they will have to cooperate with experiments. At worst, they will be sealed up. They won't die, and it can even be said to be very safe."

Speaking of this, Su Zhou couldn't help but laugh: "After I defeated the five Venerates with my sword to test the Dao, the Ten Heavenly God Systems even tacitly canceled their pursuit of Zhuzhou and Star Fire. I think, if I go to the Path of Karma Extinction and communicate with them properly, the Path of Karma Extinction can probably release all the pioneer explorers they have imprisoned – in fact, it cannot be said that they did something wrong, after all, the pioneer explorers are indeed stowaways in this world."

"At this point, my conflicts with many God Systems have been largely resolved – only the request of Cheng Kastalaro and dealing with the internal disputes of the Bureau of Balance Dao are left, but this is not necessary. The Kastalaro people are indeed good, but is he really right? I don't know."

This was also where Su Zhou felt quite uncomfortable before.

The entire World of Creation did not have a 'clear and definite' enemy.

The enemies were not evil. On the contrary, the gods allowed all their people to eat well and dress warmly, and live in the Datong world. If there was a crisis, the safety of all living beings would be the top priority.

Even the radical heretics of the Bureau of Balance Dao would evacuate the civilians in the surrounding star field when attacking other Venerates.

Was this evil? This was a saint!

The gods of many worlds did not do as well as these cosmic God Systems. On the contrary, many planes, and even many God Systems in high-magic planes, did not manage to feed all ordinary people, and would drive mortals to fight for their glory.

If it were those worlds, the first thing Su Zhou would do after arriving would be to sweep away everything in the sky. Such gods were better off without them.

But in the World of Creation...

Now, the trouble was big.

The 'Demon Lord of Devouring Evil' could not find 'evil' – then where would he get the motivation!

Until now, Su Zhou was still observing the situation in the World of Creation.

To put it nicely, he was observing the enemy's situation. To put it bluntly, he was on vacation. Every day, in addition to getting some new cultivation coins, gradually obtaining the management authority of the divine power network, and waiting to meet the preconditions for creating the Dao Harmonization Armament, he had been resting, more comfortably than on Earth.

But now, the youth had finally found a goal that could make people more motivated.

——The Bureau of Balance Dao and the Beginning Dao seemed to be able to create monsters?

That was easy to say! A professional monster hunter was here, who didn't know Su Zhou's methods?

"I have already said that I will take care of everything in this multiverse – this is my old home, and the World of Creation is no exception. This is also my police range!"

After retorting at the Twin Divine Wood and Yala unhappily, Su Zhou shook his head.

Now, he had also set his core goal after coming to the World of Creation.

That was to destroy monsters.

Whether it was the radical faction of the Bureau of Balance Dao or the monsters created by the Beginning Dao, as long as they appeared, he would annihilate them.

What End Calamity, the will of the Great Universe, if they wanted to reason, then reason. If they didn't, then reason with physics.

In the final analysis, the will of the universe was not the universe itself. In essence, it was just a will body created by the gods after birth. Even if it had the authority to control the power of the Great Universe, it did not mean that it had the authority to destroy the homes of all living beings.

Moreover, Su Zhou also noticed.

Whether it was the Twin Divine Wood or Yala, they seemed to be expecting him to do so.

As for the reason... wasn't it easy to understand?

"If the Beginning Dao intends to create a 'complete life' that encompasses the correctness of all great existences with the Key of Origin and Dao-born life as the foundation."

"Then the Bureau of Balance Dao intends to create a divine incarnation with the will of the universe of the Primordial World itself, which inherently contains all the correct aspects, as the raw material, and with a man-made balanced body, encompasses the correctness of all the great existences."

Then what about himself?

Under the guidance of Chaos, and with the secret support of the Twin Divine Wood from the beginning in the Divine Wood World, wasn't he, this 'Zhuzhou' who had always had the support of two or three great existences, also a 'complete being' created by their own hands, capable of encompassing all the correctness of the great existences?

He was the same, and in terms of completion, he was far higher than the creations of the Beginning Dao and Bureau of Balance Dao.

He was even close to success.

This was the Great Dao Struggle.

Even if no great existence stated it clearly, Su Zhou knew that as soon as he entered the World of Creation, the struggle between [Chaos], [Continuation], [Existence], and [Creation] had already begun – and he and the entire World of Creation were the embodiment of the Dao and correctness they had chosen.

"I will win, Yala." So Su Zhou stepped forward. He left the gap between the real universe and the void, walked out of the protective space of the Scales of the World, and returned to the Rimu Star disc port.

His tone was firm: "This time, I will win as well – just like every time before."

"Not only because you chose me, but also because I myself chose this path."

"...Haha."

Slightly stunned, the Serpent Spirit laughed lightly.

His tone was filled with emotion: "Now, you have seen through all this. Being able to find a seed like you is the best affirmation of my vision."

"However, you must also be careful. The divine power of the Dao Harmonization Armament surpasses the imagination of everyone below Dao Harmonization. The Bureau of Balance Dao is restrained by your characteristics, and Chaos is because of my existence, but the Dao Harmonization Armaments of other great existence beings are not so easy to deal with."

[It's a pity that there are no members of our family] The Great Dao Tree suddenly interjected at this moment, with some regret: [Otherwise, my and the World's would probably be puzzled, why their Dao Harmonization Armaments have no effect]

The World Tree tsked: [Indeed, thinking about it carefully, this is also very interesting and reasonable]

Just as Su Zhou and Yala disliked the Twin Divine Wood for always being oblivious to the atmosphere.

The Sanctuary of Balance.

Kastalaro, who was still kneeling in front of the Sanctuary emblem, suddenly raised his head.

[It has begun]

The silver-haired, purple-eyed god frowned, looking worriedly above the Sanctuary, as if his gaze could penetrate all barriers and see the situation at the end of the distant time and space.

At Kastalaro's forehead, the emblem of balance slowly emerged, and the light of the entire Bureau of Balance Dao's Sanctuary shone because of this, stirring up vast and majestic ripples.

Obviously, he had quite a few trump cards, at least not as powerless as he usually showed to Su Zhou and others.

[They have begun to move]

At this moment, the god stood up, and he muttered to himself in a deep voice: [After a hundred years... those heretics are moving again... After the Dark Abyss Dao's Dao Harmonization Armament had problems, these guys acted decisively]

[They are going to sacrifice the stars again to strengthen the connection between the will of the universe and the real universe!]
