640. Swallows the Nascent Realm!
640. Swallows the Nascent Realm!
Deep within the Chaos, a group of Supremes remained vigilantly observant of their surroundings. They did not trust each other. Their sole focus was the nascent realm situated in the midst.
For the Supremes, a nascent realm itself held no utility, only when it developed into a true realm would it significantly benefit them.
However, such a transformation could take an extensive amount of time. Perhaps a hundred years. Perhaps a thousand. Or even longer.
Yet, the supremes were indifferent. They were immortal. Thus, be it a hundred years, a thousand, or even ten thousand years—what did it matter?
For the immortal supremes, ten thousand years were but the blink of an eye. Truly inconsequential. But to this day, no one had made a move. They were all waiting!
"Swoosh."
At that moment, three figures appeared. Flying in from the distance. Instantly, many supremes' gazes converged on the trio.
"Three more supremes have arrived."
"Heh, I wonder from where these supremes hail?"
"It seems the news has thoroughly spread."
"Once the nascent realm fully matures into a realm, an earth-shattering battle will be inevitable."
The three arrivals were none other than Lin Fei, Azure Emperor Supreme, and Black Tortoise Supreme.
As for the other supremes within the surrounding Chaos. They were not particularly concerned about these three. There were already so many supremes here. They didn't mind the addition of three more.
After all, any additional supremes would just have to wait, just like them. However, Lin Fei was ultimately different from these supremes.
"Is that the nascent realm up ahead?"
Lin Fei's gaze was fixed intently on the void in front.
There lay a massive cloud of gray-white mist. It seemed to be constantly churning as if nurturing something.
The area was vast. There were faint ripples of rules and laws.
"Indeed, that is the nascent realm. In the Chaos, realms can be born at any time. But no one knows exactly how a realm comes into being. It's only known that occasionally, nascent realms appear in the Chaos and gradually evolve into realms.
Once a realm is born, especially an unclaimed one. At such times, the supremes actually have the best opportunity to 'comprehend' the grand dao of the realm. Even to become the Ruler of the realm! That's why so many supremes are patiently waiting for this nascent realm," Azure Emperor explained.
Lin Fei nodded in understanding.
The paths to mastering the grand Dao and becoming the Ruler of a fully developed realm were too arduous, nearly impossible. The Divine Realm at its zenith had many supremes, yet no Ruler ever emerged after such long spans of time; otherwise, it would not have been susceptible to invasions from the Dark Demon Domain.
However, a newly born realm was different. Many of its laws and principles were still incomplete. If a supreme could enter such a realm at this stage and contemplate over a long period, there was a high likelihood of becoming a Ruler.
For the supremes, this represented a "shortcut" to achieving Ruler. With even a sliver of hope, who wouldn't take the shortcut?
Yet Lin Fei's gaze upon the nascent realm was tinged with fervor. He was different from the other supremes. He did not require a complete realm.
If it were complete, Lin Fei's eternal realm could not assimilate it. What he needed was precisely the nascent realm. Only a nascent realm could potentially be assimilated and merged with Lin Fei's eternal realm.
This was an opportunity that came once in a millennium, almost impossible to seek out. After all, many supremes might not encounter a nascent realm for millions of years.
Lin Fei glanced around. With so many supremes present, any move he made would likely provoke a collective attack.
But Lin Fei would not be deterred. He simply needed a plan.
"Azure Emperor Supreme, Black Tortoise Supreme," he communicated telepathically. "I will take action directly, sparing no expense to seize the nascent realm. If we succeed, we escape. They do not know we are from the Divine Realm, nor do they know its location. Once we leave, they can do nothing."
"What if they stop us?" Black Tortoise Supreme voiced his concern.
"Then we shall have no choice but to slay supremes! As long as they are not Rulers, there should be no problem. Besides, even if they are Rulers, what is there to fear if they are not within their controlled realms?"
A fierce glint flashed in Lin Fei's eyes. He had slain supremes before and was now confident. Even if there were many supremes here, he was undaunted.
"Very well, let us proceed as you suggest, Martial Ancestor Lin."
"I will take responsibility for consuming the nascent realm first," Lin Fei declared. "You two restrain the supremes as long as possible. Create an opportunity for me and buy time."
Azure Emperor spoke with resolve. He agreed with Lin Fei's strategy. "Alright, let's do this."
Lin Fei did not hesitate.
"Swoosh."
The next moment, Lin Fei made his move. He transformed into a streak of light, surging past the multitude of supremes, heading straight for the nascent realm. At this, the surrounding supremes were startled.
"What is he doing? The nascent realm hasn't even formed into a realm yet; what use is there going there now?"
"Does he intend to seize the nascent realm prematurely?"
"But even if he seizes it prematurely, it's pointless."
Lin Fei, now a beam of light, sped towards the nascent realm.
In that instant, none of the supremes reacted. They were all too surprised. None knew what Lin Fei was attempting.
After all, every supreme who had come here was silently waiting for the nascent realm to develop into a true realm. That would be the proper time for them to act.
Acting now? It made no sense.
But this played into Lin Fei's hands. He faced virtually no opposition on his way and reached the vicinity of the nascent realm first.
Lin Fei stopped. He could see that the nascent realm was indeed transforming rapidly.
Inside, various laws and the essence of the world were in utter Chaos. It seemed something was being nurtured. Given time, it would evolve into a true realm!
But Lin Fei would not give the nascent realm that chance. He did not need a complete realm.
Lin Fei needed just the nascent realm!
"Eternal Realm, Devour!"
The next moment, Lin Fei's body became a world.
"Boom."
The vast Eternal Realm appeared. Majestically, it swept towards the nascent realm with a momentum that could swallow the universe.
At this point, the other supremes in the Chaos seemed to realize what was happening.
"Quick, stop him! He's trying to devour the nascent realm."
"Transforming into a world, what kind of technique is this?"
The supremes finally reacted, their faces filled with shock. They hadn't anticipated that Lin Fei would actually "devour" the entire nascent realm. This was unprecedented. Never had it occurred before.
But now, as they moved to intervene, it was already too late. Because the Azure Emperor and Black Tortoise Supreme had already lunged at the supremes. They were there to obstruct them. Even if it was just to delay them for a while.
"Boom."
The Azure Emperor and Black Tortoise Supreme unleashed a cataclysmic battle.
Meanwhile, Lin Fei's Eternal Realm had already "swallowed" the nascent realm whole!
