“I’m not afraid of death, but I don’t think integrating with you is the only way to defeat Aza.”


  Lin Huang told it his thoughts directly.

  “Have you ever thought that, since there’s an Aza now, there might be a second and third “Aza” appearing in the future? As long as mastering the entire infinite universe is an option, someone will try to do so sooner or later.”


  “Without eradicating the root problem, even if Aza is killed, there will be people who will be on par with, or even more powerful than Aza, showing up. What will you do when that happens? Train another First Liege?”


  “After killing the second one, what if the third one shows up? You’ll train a third First Liege?”


  “Will you descend into the cycle of repetition from now on?”


  What Lin Huang said made the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao fall silent for a long time.

  “Someone must escape the cycle to eradicate the root problem,” Lin Huang said, “Aza was sealed by Virtual Sovereign in the beginning. If someone could reach Virtual Sovereign’s level and become a Transcender, no matter whether it is the current Aza, or the people who come after, they will all be suppressed easily.”


  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao fell silent for a long time after hearing that. It only spoke again slowly a while later.

  “You want to know the way to become a Transcender from me?”


  “Do you know the way?” Lin Huang asked calmly.

  “To be honest, I don’t,” the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao answered directly. “If I did, I would cultivate First Liege into a Transcender directly.”


  “Then what do you know about Transcenders?” Lin Huang asked further.

  “I’ve only seen one, which was Virtual Sovereign.” The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao thought about it and organized its thoughts. “I don’t know where He came from, nor could I probe any information from him. He gave off the feeling that He’s a gigantic black hole, into which all probing methods would simply dissipate into nothingness. I couldn’t even sense any fluctuations common to living beings from His body.”


  “I think the power He has isn’t a level that one can reach by relying on cultivation. He should’ve been born as an existence that surpassed the infinite universe. He might’ve created the infinite universe.”


  “Where did He go? Do you know?” Lin Huang asked further.

  “I don’t,” the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao answered instantly, “He suddenly vanished after He ended the war.”


  Lin Huang fell into a long period of silence after hearing that. Nobody knew what he was thinking about.

  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao did not interrupt him.

  Lin Huang only spoke after a long time. He did not dwell on Virtual Sovereign. Instead, he asked a strange question, “Is there a border to the infinite universe?”


  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao answered his question directly without even thinking about it.

  “The infinite universe has no border because it’s a combination of all substances, spirit, time and space. Everything, even if it’s only the figment of the imagination of a living being, would be projected by the infinite universe. Therefore, it’s expanding frantically at all times.”


  “This is also why I don’t think anyone can surpass the infinite universe by relying on cultivation. (newn0vel.org)The reason being is that all of the cultivation methods, even if it’s only part of your imagination, are included in the infinite universe.”


  “If that’s the case, how do you explain Virtual Sovereign’s existence? Since He exists, He shouldn’t be able to escape the inclusion of the infinite universe,” Lin Huang raised a paradox.

  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao fell into a moment of silence again before raising a doubt slowly, “Can it be that He doesn’t exist?”


  A light flashed through Lin Huang’s head when he heard that. “It’s not that He doesn’t exist, He must be beyond existence!”


  “Therefore, the nature of a Transcender is actually beyond existence…” Lin Huang suddenly caught onto a crucial point.

  However, he still could not find any clues to become a Transcender after thinking for a long time.

  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao seemed to have fallen into deep thought as well.

  The two of them were silent for a long time. The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao could not help but say, “Is there anything else that you’d like to ask? If not, I’ll send you back.”


  “I don’t, but if you discover Aza’s clones, please inform me immediately.” Lin Huang thought about it and spoke again, “Rather than Aza when He has absorbed all of His clones, I think that killing His clones first is the key to win this war.”


  “I’ll try my best to find them,” the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao responded quickly. “I’ll inform you by then whether I found any or not.”


  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao sent Lin Huang’s consciousness back as soon as it was done speaking.

  Lin Huang instantly understood what had just happened when his consciousness returned to his body.

  He smirked. “So my current ability surpassed Aza’s Primordium. I wonder how many clones He has exactly, and how powerful He will become after absorbing the clones…”


  Lin Huang did not slack off at all. Instead, he seized every minute and second to continue integrating more chaotic cosmoses.

  Time passed by.

  Almost a week later, the number of chaotic cosmoses in his body had grown to 18 septillion. In terms of quantity, he should be 18 times more powerful than Aza and First Liege.

  In terms of ability, he should have reached a standard that could suppress Aza’s Primordium with ease.

  The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao finally sent him a message on this very day.

  It sent Lin Huang voice transmission this time, “I’ve tried using your suggestion over the past few days, but I couldn’t find anything. I tried it on all of the timelines on powerhouses above dominator-level rank-5. Then I probed through dominator-level rank-1 to dominator-level rank-5. Turns out nothing is unusual about everyone’s memories. Therefore, my first speculation was right. Aza has prepared for this in advance. He should’ve projected all of His clones through reincarnation.”


  “Oh well, there’s nothing we can do then…” Although Lin Huang had expected that outcome, he could not help but feel helpless when he received the confirmation from the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao.

  It was undoubtedly the worst outcome. It meant that, before Aza woke His clones, they could not locate His clones’ coordinates in order to kill them in advance.

  It would also mean that Lin Huang and First Liege might have to face the real and complete form of Aza. An Aza who had absorbed all of His clones would definitely have a level of ability more than one septillion chaotic cosmos, unlike His Primordium. He might end up mastering tens of thousands of septillions of chaotic cosmoses or even more.

  “I still hope that you’ll accept my suggestion. If First Liege fails, you’re the only person who can integrate with me…” The Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao brought up the preventive solution again.

  “I’ll think about it.” Lin Huang fell silent momentarily. He did not reject it outright.

  He was never a person who feared death. If that was really the last resort, he knew that he would definitely show up. However, he did not agree directly because he thought the Great Chaotic Heavenly Dao’s suggestion was not the only way to solve the issue.

  “Seems like it’ll really be a tough battle…” Lin Huang frowned.
