The Eternal Empire is located in the central galaxy of the 3rd Universe.

Since the successful fusion of civilizations, the Eternal Empire has become the most powerful civilization in the Multiverse.

[Mission Objective: Explore the 66th Universe and acquire the civilization evolution core]

[Exploration Intelligence: The 66th Universe is the sealed location of the civilization evolution core]

[Danger Level: Level 9 Civilization]

Lin Feng stood on the high platform of the Eternal Empire's headquarters and took a deep breath.

"The civilization evolution core..." he whispered, "this is the key to the Eternal Empire's ultimate evolution."

Tian Jian stood beside him: "After obtaining the civilization evolution core, can we break through to a Level 10 Civilization?"

Li Xue added: "According to the database of the 50th Universe, the civilization evolution core can help a civilization break through evolution bottlenecks in a state of peace."

Lin Feng nodded: "Yes. Moreover, the civilization evolution core also has the ability of civilization fusion. We can use it to create even higher-level civilizations."

He took a deep breath and issued the command.

"Launch the 66th Universe Exploration Project."

Days 1-10: Launch of the 66th Universe Exploration

[66th Universe Exploration Intelligence]

Universe Number: 66th Universe

Universe Status: Sealed Space

Danger Level: Level 9 Civilization

Resource Abundance: Unknown

Special Phenomenon: Fluctuations of the civilization evolution core detected

"A danger level of Level 9 Civilization..." Tian Jian said in shock, "this means there are Level 9 Civilization threats within the 66th Universe."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes: "Since the civilization evolution core is sealed, there are naturally powerful guardians."

He took a deep breath and issued the command.

[Launch the 66th Universe Exploration Project]

[Participating Fleet: 10 million Level 9 Civilization battleships]

[Participating Players: 80 billion (all Level 9 Civilizations)]

[Exploration Objective: civilization evolution core]

From day 1 to day 10, Lin Feng led 10 million Level 9 Civilization battleships and 80 billion Level 9 Civilization players into the 66th Universe.

The 66th Universe was completely different from the universes explored before. There were no planets, no galaxies, only endless Sealed Space.

The entire universe was covered by sealing power, forming countless independent sealed domains.

[System Warning: Sealed Guardians detected]

[Guardian Level: Level 9 Civilization]

[Guardian Quantity: 10,000]

"10,000 Level 9 Civilization guardians?" Li Xue said in shock, "this is more than any we've encountered before."

"The civilization evolution core is a treasure of a Level 9 Civilization," Lin Feng took a deep breath, "the number of guardians is naturally high."

He took a deep breath and looked at the 80 billion Level 9 Civilization players behind him.

"Are you ready?"

"We are ready!" The voices of the 80 billion players echoed in the void.

Days 11-30: The Great Battle of the Sealed Guardians

Lin Feng engaged in a fierce battle with the 10,000 Level 9 Civilization guardians.

[Level 9 Civilization Guardian]

[Level: Level 9 Civilization]

[Abilities: Ninth-Level Law Attack, Level 9 Law Shield, Spacetime Control, Law Annihilation]

Lin Feng was the first to launch an attack.

[Level 9 Universe Annihilation]

A law power capable of annihilating the entire Multiverse surged out, directly covering 100 Level 9 Civilization guardians.

Boom—!

100 Level 9 Civilization guardians turned to dust within the Level 9 Universe Annihilation.

[System Notification: Successfully killed Level 9 Civilization Guardian × 100]

[Obtained Item: Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 100]

The remaining 9,900 Level 9 Civilization guardians began to counterattack.

[Ninth-Level Law Attack]

9,900 terrifying law powers surged toward Lin Feng and the fleet.

Lin Feng blocked all attacks with a Level 9 Law Shield.

[Lin Feng's Injuries: 0%]

"A Level 9 Civilization law shield," Lin Feng took a low breath, "Level 9 laws simply cannot penetrate it."

He looked at the 80 billion Level 9 Civilization players behind him.

"Attack together!"

80 billion Level 9 Civilization players launched their attacks simultaneously, as countless Level 9 law powers surged toward the Level 9 Civilization guardians.

[Level 9 Civilization Guardian]

[HP: 100%→90%→80%→70%→60%→50%→40%→30%→20%→10%→0%]

After 20 days of intense combat, all 10,000 Level 9 Civilization guardians were killed.

"They are all Level 9 Civilization players," Tian Jian said excitedly, "there were no casualties at all."

"Yes," Lin Feng took a deep breath, "this is the power of a Level 9 Civilization."

Days 31-50: Deep into the 66th Universe

With the Sealed Guardians cleared, Lin Feng went deeper into the 66th Universe to search for the civilization evolution core.

[66th Universe Exploration Log]

Days 31-40: Traversed the first layer of Sealed Space, discovered 1,000 Sealing Runes. Cracked all Sealing Runes, consumed Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 1,000.

Days 41-50: Traversed the second layer of Sealed Space, discovered 2,000 Sealing Runes. Cracked all Sealing Runes, consumed Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 2,000.

[Total Exploration Consumption]

Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments: 3,000

Remaining Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments: 7,000

"How many layers are there in the Sealed Space?" Li Xue asked.

"According to the system prompts," Lin Feng replied, "there are nine layers in total, and the number of Sealing Runes increases with each layer."

"Then how many Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments do we need?"

"A total of 10,000 are needed," Lin Feng looked at the data, "we have already consumed 3,000, so we still need 7,000."

Days 51-90: Traversing the Sealed Space

Lin Feng continued to traverse the Sealed Space.

[Sealed Space Traversal Log]

Days 51-60: Traversed the third layer of Sealed Space, discovered 3,000 Sealing Runes. Cracked all Sealing Runes, consumed Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 3,000.

Days 61-70: Traversed the fourth layer of Sealed Space, discovered 4,000 Sealing Runes. Cracked all Sealing Runes, consumed Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 4,000.

"Wait," Tian Jian looked at the data, "we needed 10,000 Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments in total, but the fourth layer alone required 4,000. Added together, it's already over 10,000."

Lin Feng nodded: "This is the special nature of the Sealed Space. The number of Sealing Runes in each layer is not fixed, but calculated based on the explorer's civilization level."

"Then how many do we need?"

"We need a total of 100,000 Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments," Lin Feng took a deep breath, "there are 5 layers left, and each layer requires 19,000."

"100,000?!" Tian Jian and Li Xue exclaimed simultaneously, "We only have 7,000 left!"

"We need more Level 9 Civilization Law Fragments," Lin Feng said firmly, "keep moving forward."

Days 71-90: Traversed the fifth through ninth layers of Sealed Space, discovered 95,000 Sealing Runes. Cracked all Sealing Runes, consumed Level 9 Civilization Law Fragment × 95,000.

[Discovered: civilization evolution core]

[Level: Level 9 Civilization]

[Seal Status: Intact]

[Guardian: Peak Level 9 Civilization × 1]

"A Peak Level 9 Civilization guardian?" Tian Jian and Li Xue exclaimed at the same time, "That is an existence more powerful than a Level 9 Civilization."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes; he could feel the terrifying pressure emanating from the Peak Level 9 Civilization guardian. Even as a Level 9 Civilization himself, he had no absolute certainty facing this guardian.

"Peak Level 9 Civilization..." Lin Feng took a deep breath, "this is the strongest form of a Level 9 Civilization."

He took a deep breath and looked at the 80 billion Level 9 Civilization players behind him.

"Prepare for the final battle."

"Understood!" The voices of the 80 billion players echoed in the void.

The guardian was the first to launch an attack.

[Level 10 Law Attack]

A law power surpassing Level 9 Civilization surged out, rushing toward Lin Feng.

Lin Feng blocked the attack with his Level 9 Law Shield, but he was also knocked back dozens of kilometers.

[Lin Feng's Injuries: 10%]

"A Level 10 Law Attack..." Lin Feng took a deep breath, "this is power that transcends a Level 9 Civilization."

He launched a counterattack.

[Level 9 Universe Annihilation]

A Level 9 Civilization power surged out, but it was blocked by the Level 10 Law Shield.

[Peak Level 9 Civilization Guardian]

[HP: 100%→95%]

"A Level 10 Law Shield..." Lin Feng frowned, "it seems the power of a Level 9 Civilization cannot break through."

He took a deep breath and thought of a way.

"Use Civilization Fusion!"

Lin Feng activated the civilization fusion ability.

[Civilization Fusion Beginning]

"Now," he whispered, "Level 10 Civilization vs. Peak Level 9 Civilization."

While creating a new universe, it annihilates existing entities.

The Peak Level 9 Civilization guardian began to collapse within the Level 10 Universe Creation.

[Peak Level 9 Civilization Guardian]

Lin Feng took a deep breath, looking at the fused Eternal Divine Kingdom.

"The Eternal Empire has evolved into the Eternal Divine Kingdom," he whispered, "this is the most powerful civilization in the Multiverse."

Days 141-150: Returning to the Multiverse

Lin Feng returned to the Multiverse with the civilization evolution core.

On the high platform of the Eternal Divine Kingdom's headquarters, he announced this major news.

"The Eternal Empire has evolved into the Eternal Divine Kingdom," his voice spread through the entire Multiverse via the cross-universe communication network, "all members have evolved into Level 10 Civilizations."

"We possess the civilization evolution core, which can help all civilizations break through evolution bottlenecks in a state of peace."

"The Eternal Divine Kingdom will become the guardian of the Multiverse, ensuring that all civilizations can continue to evolve."

"But no matter what lies ahead, the Eternal Divine Kingdom will protect the future of all civilizations."
