156: Chapter 156 Ximi Star Region
Rona had been flatteringly beating around the bush with Lin Sheng, which meant Lin Sheng gained very little information about the so-called Primary God from him.
Seeing as there were still several thousand years left until the time for Evolution, and having nothing better to do, Lin Sheng planned to head to that Primary God's territory to take a look.
He had just used "Omniscience" and discovered that the "Primary God" was a bit strange.
Lin Sheng couldn't quite see through that "Primary God."
This immediately piqued Lin Sheng's interest.
...
Ximi Starfield.
This was a Super Starfield. In Lin Sheng's view, its size was not at all inferior to the Superclusters of the Outer Universe.
The name of this starfield was the Ximi Starfield. Lin Sheng guessed that it might be because the name of the Primary God who controlled it was "Ximi."
Although he didn't know much about this Primary God, the syllable "Xi" had been mentioned among the fragments of information that surfaced.
At the center of the Ximi Starfield was a statue of god of unknown light-years in height. The statue's face was blurred, yet it gave off a sense of holiness.
Looking with the naked eye, one could only see the pair of pure eyes on the statue's face.
These eyes were completely free of the filth of this universe; they seemed as if isolated from the universe itself, pure without a single impurity.
The moment Lin Sheng noticed the statue, he took a liking to those eyes.
The Ximi Starfield had a very interesting setting.
Due to the severe pollution of the Outer Universe, even under the radiance of stars, the pollution still existed.
Therefore, on planets without the protection of a god, both day and night were full of danger.
In the Ximi Starfield, the concept of "daytime" was established by the statue of god.
There was a unified daytime here. Whenever daytime arrived, the eyes of the statue would emit a brilliant, divine light.
The light would travel at an idealistic speed, spreading to every corner of the starfield in an instant.
The light would dispel the pollution in the starfield, allowing the living beings within to roam freely and safely.
However, a god's power is ultimately limited, especially when it involves such cross-spatial delivery.
Once "daytime" passed, "nighttime" followed immediately after.
At this time, the "Primary God" would withdraw the divinity, and the Ximi Starfield would return to its previous state.
But even at night, in a starfield protected by a "Primary God," the pollution was much smaller than in the Outer Universe.
...
On a somewhat desolate planet, a young man dressed like a corpse slowly crawled up from the muddy ground.
After gaining a general understanding of the situation in the Ximi Starfield, Lin Sheng had "descended in true form" here.
However, because the body he created was somewhat weak—only at the level of Transcendence Ninth Order—and because he hadn't used a human body for countless tens of thousands of years, he was still a bit unaccustomed to it upon first use.
This resulted in Lin Sheng being whipped directly into the sludge by the tail of a mutated monster when he faced it.
After struggling to crawl out of the mud, Lin Sheng fixed his eyes intently on the monster before him.
The monster only had the strength of the Transcendent Seventh Tier, but it was naturally ferocious. Even though Lin Sheng's aura was that of the Transcendence Ninth Order, it still went up to provoke him upon seeing him.
The monster had a twisted, braid-like body. At the front of its body were two heads, each with a bloody mouth that opened and closed sideways.
The monster had no feet; its way of moving forward was by rotating its braided body.
This had a similar principle to the rotation of a screw.
Being stared at by Lin Sheng, the monster suddenly felt a pang of trepidation in its heart.
For a moment, it actually didn't dare to step forward.
Lin Sheng looked at the somewhat abstract-looking monster before him and slowly took a step forward.
Just as his left foot stepped out, the next second...
"Slap!"
Lin Sheng fell to the ground again without any warning.
Seeing this, the fear in the monster's heart was also cast aside by the fall.
It rotated its body rapidly and appeared in front of Lin Sheng in an instant.
"Kill it!"
Falling into the mud repeatedly made Lin Sheng somewhat annoyed.
He grabbed an arm-length Great Lizard from somewhere and threw it directly into the monster's face.
Boom!
One of the monster's faces burst open like a ripe watermelon, while the other face began to howl in agony.
"Ya ya ya!"
Boom!
Hearing the noisy cries in his ear, Rona directly whipped the monster's other head into an explosion with his tail.
Once both heads disappeared, the monster was like a headless fly, only able to twitch its body not far from Lin Sheng, but it could no longer find Lin Sheng himself.
"Venerable God, you..."
Rona came to Lin Sheng's side and buried his head deep between his claws.
He was afraid that if he raised his head, Lin Sheng would see the upward curve of his lips.
"From now on, your name is 'Third Sister-in-law,' and you are my pet."
"Until we leave to go back, you must call me Master, understand?"
Lin Sheng slowly crawled up from the mud. He looked at Rona and commanded expressionlessly.
Hearing the name "Third Sister-in-law," for some reason, Rona only felt a sudden tightening of his anus.
Lin Sheng making him disguise himself as a Transcendent Seventh Tier Lesser Dragon was already enough of a struggle for him.
Now Lin Sheng had changed his name to "Third Sister-in-law." If it weren't for Lin Sheng's overwhelming power, Rona would have quit long ago.
Rona wanted to struggle a bit, but seeing Lin Sheng's mud-covered face, he suddenly lowered his head submissively.
"Third Sister-in-law thanks Master for the name."
"Good."
Lin Sheng showed a "teachable student" expression. He used his filth-covered hands to wipe forcefully on Rona's body a few times.
Wiped with mud all over by Lin Sheng, Rona didn't dare to say much. He could only silently close the pores on his body to prevent the mud from entering accidentally.
"Let's go, let's head to the nearest Faith Planet to take a look."
Lin Sheng looked at a bright star overhead and spoke.
Then he slowly walked a few steps on the ground. After ensuring he could walk normally, he stepped directly into the void and instantly appeared in the orbit of this planet.
Looking down at the desolate planet below, Lin Sheng left without any lingering attachment.
...
Mas... Master."
Calling someone "Master" for the first time, Rona still found these words a bit hard to say.
"Hmm?"
"Is something the matter?"
Lin Sheng arrived near the planet he had locked onto in a few flickers. But just as he was about to enter the Star System where that planet was located, Rona suddenly called out to him.
"Master, I suggest you'd better increase your strength a bit."
"With your current strength, at least with the strength of the Transcendence Ninth Order, it's very difficult to roam between starfields, let alone Super Starfields."
Rona advised Lin Sheng.
He was once a mortal too, and knew well that a mortal's abilities are limited.
Although the Transcendence Ninth Order already possessed the ability to roam between starfields, with this kind of strength, roaming the starfields is a life-and-death gamble.
To safely roam within a starfield, one needs at least the strength of a 'Legend.'
