1190 Swallowed in One Gulp!

Ortos’ heart skipped a beat. The Eleventh Celestial Devil King was temperamental to begin with. If he angered the Celestial Devil King, he might even be devoured alive, and could only be revived in the Celestial Devil Pool.

Ortos had just been revived. He did not dare to anger the Celestial Devil King. He could only grit his teeth and say quickly, “Your Majesty, I’ve brought you good news this time. I encountered a Controller by accident in the World of Gods. Originally, I had already informed ten Celestial Devils and surrounded them. Unfortunately, he escaped somehow. However, I’ve already attached some Celestial Devil’s flesh to his internal world. I can find his traces at any time.”

“Controller?”

The Eleventh Celestial Devil King’s huge eyes flicked about. Dozens of tumors on his entire body broke open at once. The hideous heads within quickly stuck out, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws in an extremely terrifying manner.

“Did you see it clearly? Are you sure it’s a Controller?”

“I saw it clearly. It must be a Controller! He has already devoured at least three worlds in his internal universe. Even Celestial Devils who have cultivated the first layer of the Celestial Devil’s true form are likely not his match.”

Ortos knew the strength of a Controller very well. Anyone with more than three worlds was actually rather powerful. At the very least, Celestial Devils who had not cultivated the Celestial Devil’s true form would not even have the slightest chance of resisting if they encountered one.

Only those Celestial Devils who had cultivated the Celestial Devil’s true form might be able to contend with one for a while. However, even if they had cultivated the first layer of Celestial Devil’s true form, it was probably useless. They had to at least cultivate two layers of Celestial Devil’s true form, or even the third layer.

The Controllers and the Celestial Devils were archenemies. Both parties fought continuously in the myriad worlds. The cultivation systems of both parties were completely different, and each had their own advantages. The internal universe of the Controller was inclusive. The more worlds it accommodated, the stronger the Controller would be.

On the other hand, the Celestial Devils cultivated the Celestial Devil’s true form. They devoured world origins for the purpose of cultivating the Celestial Devil’s true form. With every additional layer of Celestial Devil’s true form, the strength of the Celestial Devil would increase exponentially.

Ortos had not even cultivated the Celestial Devil’s true form. Hence, against a Controller with three worlds, he was naturally dead for certain, and completely unable to resist.

“A Controller again. This Dark Domain is the territory of Celestial Devils like us. Controllers must not be allowed to interfere. Who else knows about this?”

“Your Majesty, some time ago, I recall hearing that a Controller was discovered by His Majesty the Nineteenth Celestial Devil King some time ago. Could it be the same Controller?” Ortos said cautiously.

“The Nineteenth Celestial Devil King? That’s possible. Currently, the Controller hasn’t set his sights on the Dark Domain Chiliocosm yet. However, if this Controller accidentally comes into contact with other Controllers, it’s hard to say what will happen. Don’t mind the Nineteenth Celestial Devil King. You must find this Controller for me. Remember, you have to capture him alive. The internal universe of the Controller is more delicious than any world origin. It’s even enough for me to make up for the loss of the first layer of the Celestial Devil’s true form.”

“Go to the Celestial Devil Pool and condense your Celestial Devil’s true form quickly. I allow you to use ten portions of the world origins to cultivate your Celestial Devil’s true form as soon as possible. I will summon my personal guards and follow you to hunt down that Controller!”

“Yes, thank you, the great Eleventh Celestial Devil King.”

Ortos was simply overjoyed. Ten portions of world origins. If he could not condense the Celestial Devil’s true form even after expending ten portions of world origin, he would simply be trash among the trash.

Basically, ten portions of world origins would definitely allow one to cultivate the Celestial Devil’s true form, or at least the first layer of the Celestial Devil’s true form. It seemed like he had made the right bet by reporting the news to the Celestial Devil King this time.

“Heh, once we capture that Controller, His Majesty the Eleventh Devil King will definitely be greatly pleased. His rewards will probably exceed ten portions of world origins then. I might even be able to cultivate two levels of the Celestial Devils’ true form at once, saving tens of thousands of years of hard work…”

At this thought, Ortos was overwhelmed with emotions, and the depths of his heart burned with fervor. Hence, he hurriedly rushed to the Celestial Devil Pool. He had to cultivate the Celestial Devil’s true form in the shortest time possible before hunting down the Controller.

…

Swoosh.

Lin Feng plunged into a world from the River of Spacetime. This time, he clearly sensed an aura of “rebirth”. This seemed to be a nascent world.

“Grr…”

As soon as Lin Feng stabilized himself, he saw a terrifying beast tens of thousands of feet long, like a huge mountain. It bit towards Lin Feng.

“Vile creature!”

Lin Feng snorted coldly. His internal universe opened slightly and instantly “devoured” this huge beast into his internal universe. Then, the power of the universe suppressed it directly, immobilizing the beast.

“Let me see what kind of world this is.”

Lin Feng looked at the immobile beast in his internal universe. Then, his mental power invaded the beast’s memories. In his internal universe, he was the only ruler, the omnipotent god of creation. No matter how strong this beast was, it could do nothing.

After all, although this beast was very strong, it was far inferior to a world ruler. Hence, Lin Feng naturally found it very easy to browse through its memories.

As he flipped through more and more memories, Lin Feng was a little surprised. This world was rather special. It had indeed been born not long ago. Everything was still very primitive, and could be considered ancient. Even intelligent lifeforms were not many.

This world was not inferior to the Mage World and the Chaos at all. It was just that it had developed for too long and had too little foundation.

When the world first opened, rulers were naturally born in this world, known as the Twelve Protobeasts!

Almost all the lifeforms in the entire world were created by these Twelve Protobeasts, or contained the bloodlines of the Twelve Protobeasts. The cultivation technique was also very simple and crude. It was a bloodline cultivation technique that cultivated the bloodlines of the Twelve Protobeasts to the extreme, such that their bloodlines would infinitely approach the Twelve Protobeasts’ with atavism.

However, that was the limit. No matter how one cultivated, the limitations of the bloodline cultivation technique prevented the lifeforms in this world from surpassing the Twelve Protobeasts.

The Twelve Protobeasts had already existed for a long time, and did not interact much with each other. They basically minded their own business and stayed in their own lane. If such peaceful days continued, even if billions of years passed in this world, nothing would change.

This was disadvantageous to the “heavenly principle”. The heavenly principle, or the will of the world, which had just been born, was only a small consciousness. Even if Lin Feng used the power of the universe, it might not be able to detect him.

With his immense mental power, Lin Feng quickly detected the world’s will in this world. It was as if the world’s will had already decided to “make a move” on the Twelve Protobeasts.

The world’s will would use all kinds of methods to incite a great war between the Twelve Protobeasts. Then, the Twelve Protobeasts would fall and be converted into the energy of the world, before promoting the development of the world and giving birth to new lifeforms. The cycle would repeat, and would only stop when the world’s will deemed it “perfect”.

“So this is how the world evolves…”

Lin Feng came to a realization. Although he had established a universe, although he was a Controller and had devoured so many worlds, he actually did not know much about how worlds evolved.

But now, coming to this nascent world gave him a direct understanding of the evolution of the world.

Of course, the greatest good news for Lin Feng was that there was no sign of the Celestial Devils in this world. In other words, Lin Feng was completely free to carry out his previous plan. He could use this world as a springboard to roam the Dark Domain, and see if the spacetime imprint would disappear.

There was no time to lose. Lin Feng no longer hesitated. No matter what, this “Protobeast World” was still a world, and was still in the process of evolution. Its potential was astonishing. Lin Feng naturally would not miss it.

“Universe descending!”

In the next moment, a huge cosmic phantom appeared behind Lin Feng. It descended directly. Like a black hole, it “swallowed” the entire Protobeast World in one gulp.
