Chapter 722 The Art of Conversation of the Senostians (W Word Mega-Chapter!)

Surrender.

It certainly sounds like a good choice.

But even though Zhizhu had been quite embarrassed before, shouting for help and rescue, he still rejected Su Zhou's proposal after a moment of stunned silence.

[I will not surrender.]

He said, his tone even more resolute than before when he’d said "Kill me!": [Unnamed lord, you can kill me, but I will not surrender.]

As he spoke, Su Zhou could sense Zhizhu shifting his gaze to the Senostian lords to the side.

At this moment, Shangying solemnly conveyed clear information: [I don’t mind being killed—especially not by the Senostians.]

Hearing this sentence, the lords didn't express anything, but it could be seen that some of them made movements that were almost slight nods.

And Zhizhu's information continued: [Although I was embarrassed and asked for help, and I'm still struggling now, I really don't want to die, but I will not surrender.]

[You can kill me, eat me, assimilate me, and obtain everything I have.]

[But surrender is absolutely impossible.]

Zhizhu's words were resolute.

Su Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly, thoughtful.

Just now, he suddenly realized that the Shangying Tianzun in front of him was essentially a kind of ‘divine power’ with thoughts.

The mutual struggles between Shangying were originally mutual devouring, and their deaths were not like those of humans, with a definite standard, such as the destruction of the physical body or the annihilation of the soul.

Their death was simply that their own thoughts were altered into something else.

For Shangying, there was no such thing as superficial surrender. They couldn't pretend that well, just like "Five-Colored Divine Light" couldn't pretend to be "Two-Yin Dust."

And a sincere surrender was probably comparable to suicide.

After all, the battle of minds was like a debate on the internet. If you surrendered, you lost everything. The loser would be completely dominated by the victor. Sticking it out and refusing to admit defeat might be embarrassing, but as long as you maintained a bit of self with a spirit of Ah Q, you could still hold onto some semblance of yourself.

Although the example might be a bit outrageous, Su Zhou could see this point.

That was Shangying's ‘determination’.

So, at this moment, the youth put away his lighthearted joking attitude.

The spiritual light on the Blade of Annihilation was even clearer and brighter.

"So you can accept death, right?"

He asked, "Not only that, even if your Veil World never receives spiritual power from other worlds again, and ultimately undergoes heat death, that's fine too?"

[We cannot accept it, we will definitely resist.]

Zhizhu was held at bay by Su Zhou with the Blade of Annihilation. As long as Su Zhou exerted force, the Dao weapon containing great divine power would temporarily scatter his mind and then gradually grind it away.

But he still met Su Zhou's gaze and answered seriously: [Losing, dying, none of it is acceptable—but this is not up to my will. I can't beat you, so I'm going to be killed now. I really don't want to die.]

[But what can I do if I don't want to die? You are stronger than me, you want to kill me, so I will definitely die. I don't want this to be meaningless.]

[But surrender is different.]

Shangying's body, like crystallized snowflakes, exuded streaks of patterns, as if smiling.

[As long as I don't want to surrender, I can not surrender.]

Su Zhou carefully examined Zhizhu at this moment.

To be honest, Zhizhu's strength was not bad. In a one-on-one fight, Su Zhou himself would definitely suffer a bit at first.

Although it was highly likely that he would win in the end, Zhizhu also had teammates behind him, so it might not be so easy to fight to the end. It was very likely that it would end inconclusively, and Su Zhou, surrounded and attacked, would strategically retreat.

And the reaction of the Senostian lords behind him also proved that Zhizhu was an old acquaintance, enough to be compared with these veteran lords.

Without their help, Su Zhou would not have been able to defeat the opponent so quickly.

Every lord had their own strength and persistence, and every race and civilization had their own beliefs.

What should be done at this time?

Perhaps... a try could be made.

[Seek common ground while reserving differences.]

So after a moment of silence, Su Zhou said indifferently, "Really not surrendering?"

"Even if it's a meaningless death?"

[How can it be meaningless... to be able to exist is the greatest miracle, to be able to think is the best meaning.]

Zhizhu sensed the danger, the possibility of death.

As a result, he relaxed a lot: [It was the Senostians who broke the barrier of our universe and destroyed our homes. Of course, our counterattack also destroyed their home planet, and in the end, the rampant Void Demons and the seal of the Galaxy Star are all results. We and the Senostians owe each other nothing.]

[So it's not just me.]

[We will never surrender.]

As he spoke, Zhizhu shrank his Shangying body.

He waited for the arrival of ‘death’.

"Very good."

However, Zhizhu didn't expect that Su Zhou would withdraw his knife: "I was originally wondering if you were twisted Twilight Affiliates—now it seems that it's not the same thing at all. You were probably just deceived by the Nihility Cult."

Sending the Blade of Annihilation back to his personal space, the youth put his hands behind his back, he smiled and looked at the bewildered alien lord in front of him, and softly repeated: "To be able to exist is the greatest miracle, to be able to think is the best meaning..."

"Well said, Shangying! You are really very interesting, I don't want to kill you anymore."

—What the hell?

Immediately, he was a little dumbfounded, completely unable to understand why he had been so tough in order to seek a quick death, but the other party still didn't kill him with a single blow.

If he wasn't killed, he couldn't try to be reborn back to his own Veil World where he had backups!

As for if Su Zhou had a backup plan and he couldn't be reborn... then he would be dead anyway, he wouldn't know, what was there to be afraid of!

Then, next, Shangying heard Su Zhou's voice.

"I don't need your surrender anymore." Su Zhou even turned around, turning his back to Shangying. Even for a Tianzun, this action didn't affect any combat rhythm, but being able to make this kind of action itself meant great goodwill.

He said lightly, "Now. You have another choice."

"Zhizhu, do you agree, under the premise of complying with the basic interests of both realms, to let us cease bilateral hostile actions, coexist harmoniously, and with us as the mainstay, help us conduct a comprehensive strike against the actions of the Nihility Cult, and try to conduct some non-unilateral dumping trade, forming a reciprocal cycle of interests between the two realms, and construct the most basic constructive partnership?"

[……?]

Hearing this passage, Zhizhu was stunned.

Not because of the content, but because he didn't understand it.

Su Zhou shook his head slightly after noticing this: "What I mean is, are you willing to beat up the Nihility Cult with me as the leader, and cease the hostile actions between the two sides, try peaceful negotiations, exchange what you have for what you need, and start the most basic fair trade, and finally, in this cautious mutual benefit, build a new civilization relationship?"

[This……]

Zhizhu, who understood this time, suddenly swayed his entire body.

Although it sounded like the result was almost exactly the same as when he was asked to surrender before...

But for some reason, he suddenly felt that it was completely acceptable?!

Zhizhu instantly fell into distress.

Moreover, beat up the Nihility Cult...

That sounds so cool!

Even the Senostian Lord Group sensed Zhizhu's wavering, and they wondered: [What's going on, why is it that clearly the content is completely the same, the requirements are the same, but this guy Zhizhu wants to agree?]

[We said the same thing to them at the end of the war, why didn't Darkshadow agree at that time?]

"Eh?"

At this moment, Su Zhou, who was waiting for Zhizhu's answer, also wondered in the soul space: "What did you say back then? What were the original words?"

And a lord composed of eternal ice brewed for a while, this Ω-level powerhouse who looked like a super-sized snowflake crystal put on a dignified expression in the soul space, and then said: [Hey!]

This ‘Hey’ directly made Su Zhou frown and show a very painful expression.

—Enough, there's no need to continue! I already know what you're going to say next!

Although he thought so in his heart, with some speculation, the words of the Senostian lords next still made the youth feel even more pain.

Because that lord said righteously: [Heretical aliens from the other world! We will now give you a peaceful choice!]

[Respect our Senostian civilization as your lord, and follow us to jointly kill the Nihility Cult, and open up border trade!]

[As long as you offer tribute on the spot, we will give you even better rewards and graces, so that peace between our two races will be eternal!]

[Holy! Praise the Galaxy Star!] And the other Senostian lords said in unison: [Source of life, beginning of creation!]

"……Wow."

Letting out a breath, Su Zhou sincerely sighed, he sighed and said: "Your proposal and way of speaking... it's really hard for people not to refuse."

"So things with similar meanings can really have earth-shattering reversals because of a person's "emotional intelligence"..."

"Normal, normal."

Yala clicked her tongue twice, shook her head, she had a look of indifference on her face: "The Lord of Myriad Armies and the Affiliates of Transcendence are basically like this, even when saying hello to you, they feel like they are launching a challenge to you, and when greeting you, they will also ask if your family has eaten enough, it's simply full of paternalistic flavor."

"These Senostians are still a bit more primordial after all, just the descendants of the Galaxy Star, the flavor is not pure enough."

Su Zhou found it hard to imagine how to make it purer.

In short, everyone understood why the Senostians were still fighting with the Shangying until the very end.

Su Zhou was very glad that all of these old-generation lords were dead, some had entered the Galaxy Star, and the surviving ones had gone to other worlds.

Otherwise, the new generation of Senostian civilization would probably not be as easy to talk to as it is now.

Of course, besides this, Su Zhou was actually a little strange.

"The Veil World... can actually undergo heat death?"

He muttered strangely: "It shouldn't be?"

Raising his head, Su Zhou looked in the direction of the universe rift not far away, he showed a puzzled expression: "Spiritual energy is endless negative entropy, and it is also a kind of infinite force—except for the possibility of heat death during the period of spiritual energy severance, as long as there is spiritual energy in the world, it is absolutely impossible to move towards natural great silence."

"Not to mention, even now, I can observe that in the ‘shining areas’ of the galaxy, extremely dense spiritual energy is conducting a new round of ‘star creation movement’—ultra-high spiritual power sections condensed by many stars, and new spiritual state stars condensed by spiritual power are manifesting and materializing."

"Even if the edge of the universe is dead and erased by time, there will still be infinite stars born in the center of the stars."

This was also why the Shining Area was the main sphere of influence of many former Galactic Empires... Because, in this shining star region, energy was almost infinite.

Without relying on the energy of the Shining Area, it would be difficult for them to boldly shape so many cosmic wonders in the subspace.

Because of this, Su Zhou felt confused.

"Why is the Veil World so exceptional, it sounds like there is basically no natural spiritual energy influx phenomenon, it's completely just looking at whether a few worlds or the corpses of powerful existences fall into it from time to time?"

"Being able to undergo heat death proves that the universe is isolated from the outer universe, and there is no other source of spiritual power besides the spiritual source, and the spiritual source itself is from the outside world. If this is regarded as an accident, then isn't the Veil World a ‘void’ from the very beginning?"

This was obviously contradictory.

So Su Zhou believed that the Veil World itself had peculiarities.

What kind of universe was that exactly?

Su Zhou decided to go and see for himself.

"Get up, Zhizhu, although you started the war this time, I am still willing to bring you peace."

Zhizhu looked at Su Zhou's back as he walked towards the universe rift in confusion.

He still didn't know Su Zhou's name, nor did he know Su Zhou's race.

But the other party's strength, the other party's aura, the other party's every word and deed, all exceeded his expectations and were completely unpredictable.

Peace... are the Senostians willing to have peace?

Although the Shangying had not encountered spiritual energy severance, there were still several active lords.

But with a lord guarding, the Twilight Star Region was indeed as solid as a rock, and coupled with the fact that those twenty Senostian lord imprints could be attached to his body at any time to exert their strength, the Shangying might not be able to win in terms of hard power.

Zhizhu looked at those Ω-level lord imprints, those old acquaintances.

And the old acquaintances also looked at him.

[Don't look at us] they said: [Now, the one who controls the Galaxy Star is Su Zhou.]

[Although he is not a Senostian, the things he does are very much in line with our ideas—before we restore our true bodies, we believe his decision will be better for this universe.]

[Zhizhu, the hatred between our race and your race cannot be washed away even with ten thousand years of blood... but if it is to fight against the Nihility Cult, even such hatred, we are willing to endure.]

Saying this, the voice of the lord resounded in Zhizhu's ears: [Don't forget, Shangying.]

[Don't forget, the truth behind the ‘Void Demon Attack’ that caused us the greatest losses in the past... is still unknown!]

Zhizhu was silent.

Nihility Cult... he chewed on this word.

After the universe rift was opened in the past, the conflict between the Shangying and the Senostians had not yet been maximized, but the violent Void Demons attacked, causing heavy damage to both races, and a tribe among the Shangying and a branch among the Senostians actually attacked each other after jointly fighting against the Void Demons.

Both sides accused the other of attacking first, and this behavior of thinking about being hostile in times of crisis further fostered greater hatred.

If all of this was behind the scenes...

[...Anyway, I can't stop it, so I'll go and take a look, and see what this ‘Su Zhou’ can analyze!]

Calming down, Zhizhu's body reconsolidated, he turned into a stream of shadows and flew away, catching up with Su Zhou's pace.

Then, he stepped into the universe rift, into the ‘Veil World’.

……

Buzz—

The spirit of transmission vibrated, whistling through the air, and in the subspace where spiritual power and thought determined everything, it even stirred up endless dust and fog, awakening the ancient star systems that had been sealed for a long time.

Under the spiritual wind that was stirred up, a wisp of rainbow-colored star dust floated up, spread out, it spanned the star bridge between heaven and earth, like an eye slowly opening.

The spirit of transmission was swift, almost able to transmit messages in the subspace without delay, but the spiritual energy consumed was so great that even a Transcendent Overlord might not be able to use it with all his strength, let alone such a vision that shook the star system, it was impossible to use it without a lord.

Moreover, if it was a real powerhouse, they could even sense a trace of ‘immortality’ from this spirit of transmission.

In the heavens and worlds, in the boundless universe, there were countless starting points for cultivating spiritual energy, and so were the ending points, but if handed over to intelligent life for classification, they could ultimately be summarized into several major categories.

Those with strong physical bodies would eventually embark on the path of eternal immobility; those with innate intelligence would mostly choose the path of eternal spiritual nature; and those with innate spiritual bodies would naturally embark on the path of indestructible mind.

Although the classification was very simple and primitive, the universe was so simple and primitive.

However, being able to go so far on the path of ‘immortality’ was probably hard to find even in the entire sealed universe—in this universe that had experienced two spiritual energy severances in ancient times and silence, there were no longer so many powerful pure spiritual lives.

So, perhaps there were other possibilities.

For example, civilizations from other universes.

The Head of the Nihility Cult sensed the information contained in this spirit of transmission, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

[Earth civilization lord Su Zhou, carrying the sacred object Celestial Scale, arrived at the Twilight Star Region, and using the sacred object Galaxy Star of the Senostians as a guide, awakened the twenty slumbering lord imprints within...]

He repeated in a low voice, his tone containing, in addition to shock, a kind of incredible feeling as if seeing fake news: [Using the power of the lord imprints, the newly promoted lord Su Zhou forcefully defeated the Shangying lord Zhizhu, and now has persuaded the other party, and is heading towards the ‘Veil World’ behind the universe rift.]

The Head of the Nihility Cult's tone became more serious with each sentence he said.

And when he finished reciting it, he became completely solemn.

[The Senostians' lord imprints? How were they awakened?! If they could awaken them, how could they have allowed their compatriots to slumber for so many years?!]

[How could they hand over the Galaxy Star to Su Zhou? This is unbelievable! How could those die-hard children of the planet hand over their source object to people of other races, even if that person was holding the Celestial Scale!]

[The most important thing is the lord imprint attachment, that Su Zhou... that Su Zhou is not even a Senostian, how was he possessed? This is simply illogical!]

It was not just incomprehensible, it was simply inexplicable!

Not to mention anything else, the revival of those twenty lord imprints caused the Senostians' strength to skyrocket by a large margin, completely exceeding the permissible error range of the plan by one million light years!

The rainbow-colored star dust in mid-air condensed into a giant hand and pointed into that spirit of transmission, beginning to ‘browse’ the detailed content within.

But the more he browsed, the more incredible the Head of the Nihility Cult felt.

The information in the spirit of transmission was very complete, as if he had witnessed the entire battle between Zhizhu and Su Zhou, but whether it was Su Zhou's strength or the various peculiarities he displayed, they all made this Star Dust Life feel unexpected.

Leaving aside the fact that a guy who had only been a newly promoted lord for a few months had jumped to the point where he could confront veteran Ω-levels—this could be regarded as a unique talent after all, as the first newborn life in the entire universe to break through the lord, it was not strange to have peculiarities.

But, but...

Why would Zhizhu agree to cooperate?

Weren't the Shangying and the Senostians both stubborn to the extreme, and almost impossible to be persuaded?

Asking them to surrender was harder than asking for their lives!

The sender of the spirit of transmission was not very clear about this point, and the Head of the Nihility Cult could not guess out of thin air.

Naturally, they couldn't imagine that Su Zhou didn't let Zhizhu surrender at all.

Seeking common ground while reserving differences... he, Su Zhou, was not a Senostian, and had no life-and-death feud with the Shangying, and also determined the ‘Nihility Cult’ as a common target, so Zhizhu, who had just been tricked by the Nihility Cult's false information, would naturally hesitate.

Of course, the most important thing was that Su Zhou was very strong.

Otherwise, he would not be able to awaken the lord imprint, he would not be able to quickly defeat Zhizhu, and he would not be able to make the Senostians also default to his choice.

[Su Zhou...]

The Head of the Nihility Cult also noticed this real key point, he repeated this name, and a strange and mixed feeling of anticipation suddenly arose in his heart.

He knew that the End had Ten Sides... and had already turned into the Twilight Cocoon.

That was the form that the true Twilight Affiliates could display, a form that was pitiful, hateful, and ultimately rejected everything, only choosing to sleep, choosing ‘nihility’.

Too nihilistic.

Too pathetic.

It was really... unacceptable.

The Head of the Nihility Cult denied this nihility.

Even knowing, believing, and even ‘firmly believing’ that nihility was the truth, more than all the creatures in the entire sealed multiverse, he believed in the ‘correctness of nihility’ even more.

However, the Head of the Nihility Cult wanted to deny it.

Believing and agreeing... were originally not the same thing.

Just like the person who believed that war would inevitably come was not necessarily a believer in war, but could also be a person who resisted all ‘disputes’ and ‘stopped war with war’.

And Su Zhou was obviously not a Twilight Affiliate or Affiliate Race.

Although he did show an obvious aura of nihility, the Head of the Nihility Cult knew—this Earth Lord, even if he could ‘understand’ nihility, deeply knowing the correctness of nihility, and even being closer to the correctness of nihility than the Twilight Affiliates.

However, he never believed that ‘nihility’ was the absolute truth.

There must be a better, better choice.

Nihility will eventually come, and it is the essence of all the heavens and worlds... in the infinite time of the past, this has been correct.

But……

Is it right to always be like this?

[I... agree.]

[But I will definitely correct it!]

In the dark, he could sense the other party's thoughts.

[Innovation]

The Head of the Nihility Cult sensed the Dao inscribed by ‘Su Zhou’ from the spiritual energy of the universe.

So, at this moment.

The Primordial Lord, whose plans had been completely disrupted, suddenly laughed.

[Haha... hahahahahaha! There are actually such strange people, such strange Dao!]

He laughed, laughing wildly, time and space flowed like water in the surrounding heaven and earth, and the incredible spiritual energy distorted the subspace, one huge space-time bubble after another was generated around it, deriving all things, and then ultimately returning to the final nihility.

Then, from the planet, endless shining rainbow light rose into the sky, it tore through star dust and light, poured into the depths of the dark subspace, and then condensed into a huge, majestic, and majestic figure.

Countless streams of water converged, and finally condensed into a broad river.

[Believing but not agreeing, wanting to resist, agreeing but not believing, wanting to innovate... how many paths in this world lead to the same destination?]

The unrestrained long chant penetrated the entire star system and echoed between the stars and the deep darkness: [Great existence, what is the meaning of your guidance? How can one walk the right path amidst the swaying of all living beings?]

[Which path is truly correct?]

[Who can answer this question!]

The stars were silent, only His voice echoed.

It could be seen that a brilliant giant beast composed of countless colors, condensed by endless brilliance, and exhibiting the highest white, was coiled in the subspace. It looked like a dragon, but it looked like a river, and even more like a vast and majestic giant python composed of endless steel stars.

If he had to say, the thing most similar to Him was actually the spiral arm of the galaxy, and even the long cosmic structure in the universe.

Every time this slender Star Dust World Dragon swayed, countless shining space-time bubbles would rise, like the dust of the world, moving with it.

In the entire trade alliance's home star system, all the members of the Nihility Cult sensed that their leader had jumped out of his seclusion, releasing an incomparably powerful aura. The Star Dragon swayed its body, which shook the trajectory of the star system. In the turbulent space-time storm, the entire surrounding subspace rippled like a tide.

The terrifying pressure overflowed, causing countless ‘spirits’ and ‘demons’ that had been derived in the subspace to fall silent, not daring to move at all.

[Accelerate]

The Head of the Nihility Cult, who showed his Ω-level lord body, solemnly ordered: [Transfer all power, we will go to the Twilight Star Region!]

[We cannot let the Senostians retrieve their power so easily, nor can we let the war between the Shangying and them stop. The Celestial Scale and the Galaxy Star must not unite so early!]

[Peace is not allowed in this universe that seals everything!]

He flew, turning into a torrent that emanated countless starlight, flying towards the distant end of time and space.

After that, in the silent silence, even more light surged.

The glory of nihility chased after the diffuse star dust, like dark clouds covering the stars.

……

After the universe rift.

Veil World.

An extremely dark universe, not even a trace of light could be seen.

Two great universes, separated by a series of blurred and uncertain voids.

There was no concept of distance in the void. The higher the energy level, the more nodes that could be browsed in an instant, and the more quickly one could cross more worlds and arrive at the desired coordinates.

And the Galaxy Star was a sacred object that could directly lock onto the target, directly break through all obstacles, and link two universes.

As part of the Great Seal, the authority it possessed, in a sense, surpassed the universe.

However, it was obvious that when the Senostians controlled the Galaxy Star to connect the Veil World, there were some accidents.

Not only did the universe rifts of the two realms not fully mesh and connect, but a distance was blocked by the void in the middle, and it was also torn unexpectedly large. Finally, the shock of the two universes triggered a terrifying space-time earthquake, which destroyed the Senostians' home planet and a spiritual source settlement of the Shangying.

For both sides, this was a completely unacceptable loss, but the accident itself was also very bizarre.

But the subsequent outbreak of the war made both civilizations unable to study the essence of the accident, and by the time they had time to study it later, they did not have the conditions to collect information around the two realms.

The moment Su Zhou entered this world, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

It was not the different universe rules—with the Galaxy Star and the Celestial Scale, he would not be in danger in any universe, these were all trivial matters.

Not to mention the many ‘Shangying fortresses’ located in the distance, vaguely blocking this entrance, what the youth sensed was not these Shangying defenses that could block Celestials, but absolutely could not block him.

What he cared about was something more essential.

Su Zhou murmured, "This universe is actually ‘absolutely closed’?!"

It was hard not to be shocked.

Since becoming a Tianzun, Su Zhou's power had merged with the surrounding universe's spiritual energy. As long as the Tianzun wanted, all free-floating spiritual power would be controlled and controlled by Him.

However, the Tianzun could not control all the spiritual energy, because spiritual energy would constantly emerge, just like when all the spiritual energy suddenly disappeared during the spiritual energy severance in the past, their emergence was also so unreasonable.

This was the proof that the universe was connected to the outside world—the endless spiritual power in the ice-condensed void would penetrate all worlds, and in the entire sealed multiverse, there would theoretically be no truly spiritually extinct world.

Unless it was an accident, the structure of some worlds was naturally not supportive of spiritual power... but an accident was an accident, which meant that it was not the norm.

However, the Veil World was different.

Su Zhou could sense that the Veil World, in addition to not having matter, just pure ‘spirit’, most of the laws related to spiritual power were not much different. Unlike those universes that rejected spiritual power from the basic constants of the universe, this world could completely support the development of spiritual energy.

The existence of the Shangying was proof, their lives were explaining the normality of the Veil World in this regard.

However, what was unusual was that this universe... was completely isolated from the outside world.

It even closed off the interaction with the void spiritual energy, and wandered alone in the void.

The internal structure supports spiritual energy, but the outer shell closes spiritual energy. A naturally born universe could not be so bizarre, because a naturally born universe that was completely insulated from spiritual power existed. Even if it was completely random, it was impossible to randomly select a spiritual energy constant that was almost the same as other universes.

This was a very obvious ‘artificial structure’.

The Veil World was a man-made world! This was the conclusion that Su Zhou had come to after traveling through the heavens, based on his incredibly rich experience!

But the problem came—

The Veil World was not small.

It could even be said that it was incredibly wide.

Su Zhou sensed it for a moment. In addition to the Shangying group's defense line, which was gradually approaching around and had faintly discernible lord or α-level manifest lord auras approaching, through resonating with the many spiritual energies of this world, the youth perceived more things.

For example, he had realized that the width of this world was not even smaller than the sealed universe, and it was probably a true universe that was still expanding.

And what the Shangying lived on were just the sparks that lit up in this infinite darkness, with the spiritual source as the center.

Compared to the universe itself, these sparks were incredibly small, but in reality, they were very vast, almost like small galaxies, catalyzing the quite prosperous civilization of the Shangying.

What kind of existence, what level of powerhouse, could create such a strange universe?

Su Zhou had an answer in his heart.

But he still had some questions that needed to be confirmed.

So, the youth turned his head, he looked at Zhizhu, who had been chasing his pace, and seriously asked: "Lord Zhizhu, I would like to ask a question."

—Am I not a prisoner? Why are you being so polite?

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhizhu was still polite on the surface: [Please ask, if it does not involve secrets, I will answer seriously.]

"Um."

And Su Zhou nodded, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Zhizhu... I want to know, what is the earliest history of your Shangying clan that can be traced back to?"

"Or rather, when was the approximate time when your group was born?"

[History? How long?]

This question was really beyond Zhizhu's imagination. He originally thought that the other party wanted to ask about the current civilization situation of the Darkshadow, how many lords there were, etc., but he didn't expect the other party to ask about such trivial matters.

However, it was indeed not related to secrets, so he answered seriously: [The earliest Shangying did not have obvious wisdom and intelligence, they were just primitive spiritual energy flows, so it is impossible to determine the time.]

[But according to our subsequent archaeology, it can be inferred that the first Primordial Spiritual Source should have appeared around 500 million years ago.]

Five hundred million years.

Su Zhou nodded, he turned his head to the side and asked the Senostian lords: "Ω lords, I would like to ask, according to your research, how long ago did the Galaxy Star appear and descend in your home star region... that is, the Twilight Star Region?"

The lords were not stupid.

Su Zhou had said so clearly, so the Senostian lords naturally understood what he meant in his heart in an instant.

[Lord Su, what I say is true...]

So, Lord Panjing said cautiously and solemnly: [Although we Senostians only possessed wisdom and developed civilization 1.45 million years ago... but the ancient star of life, that is, the living planet you mentioned, our ancestral land, received the favor and grace of the Galaxy Star...]

[Indeed, it was also in the interval between 450 million and 520 million years ago.]

Zhizhu was a little confused at first, because he didn't know the essence of the Galaxy Star, nor did he know many things in the sealed universe.

He only knew that the Galaxy Star was the source of infinity held by the Senostians, a sacred object that could open up the barrier of the universe!

[Wait……]

However, because of Su Zhou's words, Zhizhu also keenly noticed that the origins of the Shangying clan and the Senostians were not only very consistent, but there also seemed to be some connection between the two!

The Galaxy Star was a fragment of the Great Seal that collapsed because of the ancestral civilizations fighting for the ‘Final Universe Seal’, and the terrifying war shook the sealed universe.

It shattered and fell into the Senostian's home star with endless energy, and then sealed itself, but even so, endless agility transformed the planet, leading to the birth of the Senostians.

And the Veil World was originally empty.

It was a strange shock that brought countless corpses of huge existences, as well as ‘fragments of the world’, which then condensed into spiritual sources in the empty universe due to the transformation of the universe's rules!

In addition, the fact that the Senostians intended to find an alien universe, but directly found the Veil World... it was hard to say that it was a pure coincidence.

It could even be said that considering that the Galaxy Star was not a natural divine object, but a seal fragment created by other great existences, a kind of ‘creation’, so its actions could probably be regarded as the system default, ‘repeating the last operation’...

This could also explain why the universe rift was larger than the two races expected, and also ushered in many Void Demons.

Because this rift... was probably not opened for the first time!

And while the many Senostian lords were lost in thought, and Zhizhu was also silent, Su Zhou thought even more.

"The Veil World is man-made, the sealed universe can be directly connected, the Galaxy Star is related to this universe, at least the fact that it fell from the seal did cause a drastic change in the Veil World—this means that the Veil World is likely to be a relatively special part of the Great Seal."
