311: Chapter 311 Creating New Rules and Returning Creation

Inside the pure white space, the primal heaven derivation disk, which had been suspended for countless eons and controlled the fate of the myriad worlds, had completely vanished into nothingness.

Its massive bronze body, complex Bagua runes, and cold, heartless mechanical will had all been swallowed by Zhou Wannian's flawless inner universe, becoming the ultimate nourishment for his Major Thousand Worlds.

Zhou Wannian stood quietly in place, his green robe fluttering gently in the Origin currents generated after the swallowing frenzy subsided. His eyes remained closed as he concentrated on digesting the massive, extreme amount of multi-Universe Luck that even exceeded the sum of the Grand Void Firmament.

The Great Five Elements Illusory World Art operated within him to a supreme Realm unprecedented and unparalleled.

The swallowed System core codes and Laws of Causality were forcibly dismantled by the power of Great Perfection Five Elements Disintegration the moment they entered the inner universe, then rewoven and reorganized under the life-giving Creation Divine Light of the chaos jianmu.

One hundred and eight clusters of time dao patterns cheered in the long river of time within the inner universe. They absorbed the magical quality of being able to peer into the future and reverse the past from the primal heaven derivation disk, becoming more solid and omnipresent.

During this process, Zhou Wannian's Physical Body and Divine Soul were also undergoing their final and most thorough transcendence.

His skin took on a nearly transparent glazed texture, as if his entire being was no longer composed of matter but condensed from pure Great Dao Laws. Every heartbeat of his could trigger a faint spatial ripple in this pure white space that affected the birth and death of billions of Universes.

After an unknown amount of time, when the last sliver of the primal heaven derivation disk's Origin was completely absorbed and assimilated by the inner universe.

Zhou Wannian slowly opened his eyes.

Within those eyes, deep as ancient wells, flowed the vast scenes of star extinction and the rebirth of all things. But soon, these grand images, enough to drive a Creation Realm expert insane instantly, were restrained, returning to a clear and easygoing divine light like that of a Mortal.

He casually dusted off his green sleeves, his movements so gentle it was as if he had just shooed away a reckless mosquito rather than swallowing the ultimate System that dominated the myriad worlds.

Zhou Wannian turned to look at this pure white space that had returned to deathly silence. In all directions of this space, the billions of transparent bubbles were currently in an extremely eerie state of stagnation.

Without the random ticking of the broken needle of the primal heaven derivation disk, the flow of Luck, the descent of calamities, and the birth of Opportunities within these Universes had all ground to a halt. Although time was still passing, the trajectory of fate had become a straight and boring line, no longer having any ups and downs.

If this state were allowed to continue, these Universes would eventually head toward a desperate end called heat death due to extreme stratification and the inability of energy to circulate.

Zhou Wannian looked at those floating bubbles, a faint smile tinged with compassion appearing on his handsome face.

Zhou Wannian whispered to himself in a steady tone, "Since I've eaten your housekeeper, it seems the job of redistributing the family property can only be taken over by me. However, I have no interest in controlling every living being's joys and sorrows like that broken disk."

He slowly raised his right hand, his index finger slightly hooked, and pointed calmly across the vast sea of Universe bubbles.

Buzz.

As he pointed his finger, Zhou Wannian's flawless inner universe phantom, which had completely surpassed the dimension of the Grandmist Source Core, manifested once again in this pure white space.

This time, the inner universe did not erupt with any swallowing frenzy. Instead, with a posture that embraced all things and nourished them silently, it released streams of Creation Origin that were pure to the extreme, untainted by any shackles of Karma.

Great Perfection Space Laws turned into countless invisible bonds, ingeniously connecting the billions of Universe bubbles with Zhou Wannian's inner universe.

Great Perfection Time Reversal turned into a breeze, brushing through the interior of every bubble, forcibly erasing and reversing the shackles of fate, unfair Luck, and even the groundless catastrophes deliberately created to satisfy the System's energy collection that had been forcibly injected by the primal heaven derivation disk.

Zhou Wannian did not set any new Children of Destiny, nor did he stipulate which Universe must prosper or which must be destroyed.

He simply took the immense Creation vitality from his inner universe and, in an absolutely fair and impartial manner, turned it into a sky full of light rain, evenly sprinkling it onto those billions of Major Thousand Worlds.

Zhou Wannian's tone was easygoing, as if announcing a brand new era to the billions of living beings in the myriad worlds.

Zhou Wannian said in a calm voice, "The old rules are broken. From today on, there is no ordained fate and no System disasters. I grant you the right to live, die, and evolve autonomously. How far you can go depends entirely on your own fortune and heart. These myriad worlds should have ten thousand different kinds of prosperity, rather than being trapped in the hexagrams of a broken disk, acting as monotonous marionettes."

His voice did not boom in the various Universes, but in a way more profound than Heavenly Dao thunder, it was directly branded into the depths of the Divine Soul of every being with independent consciousness.

As Zhou Wannian's voice fell.

Those originally stagnant transparent bubbles instantly erupted with unprecedentedly brilliant light. The Universes, having lost the System's intervention, erupted with an amazing vitality and creativity.

In some immortal cultivation worlds, the low-level Cultivators who had been stepped on by so-called "Children of Luck" for years suddenly found that the invisible resistance suppressing them had disappeared, and their cultivation began to advance by leaps and bounds; in some technological civilizations, the technology trees that had been stagnant due to the sophon lock sent by the System suddenly ushered in an explosive Breakthrough; in some magic worlds, the magic sources that were about to dry up gushed out again under the nourishment of the Creation Origin.

The myriad worlds, under Zhou Wannian's casual finger, ushered in true vitality and freedom.

Zhou Wannian looked at those Universe bubbles that had regained their vitality and nodded slightly in satisfaction.

He slowly withdrew his right hand, feeling the wonderful change in the inner universe after feedbacking the heavens—although energy was consumed, the flow of Laws was smoother and more in line with the essence of the Great Dao. A leisurely smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

Zhou Wannian sighed softly in a relaxed tone, "The shackles are broken. This long journey can finally be considered to have some true sense of freedom. However, after staying in the deepest part of the Great Primordial Void for so long, this pure white scenery is inevitably a bit too monotonous and boring."

He turned around, hands behind his back, preparing to leave this central area of the Grandmist Source Core.

Just as he took a step.

In the Void Realm not far from his side, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared, so faint that even the Great Perfection Space Law almost ignored it.

This fluctuation did not come from those transparent Universe bubbles, but from the absolute edge of this pure white space, from the void rift connecting to unknown dimensions.

Zhou Wannian stopped, turned his head slightly, his deep gaze like two sword lights piercing through the ages, stabbing directly at the Void Realm where the fluctuation appeared.

From that extremely tiny crack, a hand slowly reached out.

It was a sickly pale, large-knuckled, withered palm with nails like black sharp daggers. There was no trace of life breath or any Law fluctuation on this palm, but just by reaching out of the crack, the pure white space around it seemed to be contaminated by thick ink, rapidly spreading circles of nauseating grayish-black Death Qi.

Next, a stooped figure wearing a tattered black cloak, its face completely hidden in shadow, squeezed in with great difficulty from the crack.

The appearance of this figure did not cause any earth-shattering phenomena, but it brought an unprecedented absolute malice to this newly reborn Source Core space, which even Zhou Wannian's inner universe felt an instinctive repulsion toward.

This was not a Devil Head born in some Major Thousand World, nor was it one of those Dao Ancestors hiding in the Origin Sea.

This was an alien species completely different from this multi-Universe System.

The stooped figure slowly raised its head. Although its face could not be seen clearly, Zhou Wannian could clearly feel that under the hood, there was a pair of eyes full of greed and desire for destruction, staring fixedly at him and the sea of Universe bubbles behind him.

A harsh, intermittent rasping sound like metal scraping emerged from under the cloak of the hunched figure, using a bizarre language that Zhou Wannian had never heard before but could understand directly through Divine Soul fluctuations.

The hunched figure roared in an ear-piercing voice: "Fresh... unclaimed territory. No damned defensive line in the way. This world... will become new rations for the great 'Void Plundererss'. You... this Native Deity emitting a delicious Origin... hand over those bubbles behind you, and I can grant you the supreme glory of becoming the lowest slave of my race."

As it spoke, it took a step forward with extreme arrogance.

As its foot fell, that grayish-black Death Qi instantly expanded outward frantically, actually directly polluting and corroding dozens of miniature Universe bubbles nearest to it; the galaxies within the bubbles turned into deathly silent ruins within a mere half-breath.

Facing this sudden cross-dimensional invasion and the undisguised declaration of plunder.

Zhou Wannian's expression remained as calm as water. He didn't even knit his brows; on that handsome face, there still hung that easy-going smile that made one feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze, yet also revealed an absolute relaxation.

He ignored the other's arrogant threat and didn't immediately move to wipe it out.

He simply turned around in an extremely ordinary manner, facing the hunched figure emitting Death Qi all over.

Zhou Wannian's tone was steady, as if looking at a mutant rat that had crawled out of some unknown sewer, and he commented indifferently: "I just finished cleaning this room and cleared away those annoying spider webs. You death-seeking filthy thing, which corner of the door crack did you crawl in from? To even dare to soil my bubbles right in front of me."

He slowly withdrew his right hand from his wide green sleeves.

The hunched figure obviously hadn't expected that this "Native Deity," newly born in this "backward" Universe System, would not show any fear when facing it, a great Void Plunderers, but instead reprimanded it in an extremely contemptuous tone.

This made it feel a great insult.

The hunched figure let out an angry shriek.

The hunched figure roared shrilly: "Ignorant native. You have no idea what kind of great existence you are facing. We Void Plunderers race have already devoured countless weak Multiverses like yours. Since you don't know what's good for you, I'll eat you first, then slowly enjoy these bubbles."

It suddenly spread its withered, pale arms, and a surge of pitch-black Void Origin, emitting extreme decay and devouring power, swept toward Zhou Wannian like a bursting mountain flood.

This power System of Void Origin was completely independent of the Great Five Elements Laws; it followed no known physical Laws. Upon contact with any matter or energy, it would forcibly distort and corrupt it into nourishment for the Void Plunderers.

Facing such a bizarre attack that was enough to make an ordinary Eternal Realm expert fall into instant despair.

Zhou Wannian stood in place, not yielding even half a step.

In his deep eyes, a flash of extremely cold killing intent flickered.

Zhou Wannian's tone was easy-going, yet it carried an absolute dominance that transcended all dimensions as he spoke softly.

Zhou Wannian said coldly: "What Void Plunderers, quite the intimidating name you've given yourselves. To come to my territory and run wild, you've chosen the wrong graveyard. No matter which dimension you come from, since you're here, just honestly turn into ashes."

He didn't form any hand seals, nor did he sacrifice any Magic Treasure.

He simply, with extreme casualness, pointed a finger forward toward the pitch-black Void Origin sweeping across the sky.

Buzz.

The perfect, self-consistent inner universe rules of the Great Five Elements Illusory World Art erupted at this moment with a terrifying power completely different from when it countered the primal heaven derivation disk.

If dealing with the System before was an internal purging, then dealing with this alien species now was an absolute crushing without reservation.

One hundred and eight clusters of time dao patterns converged at Zhou Wannian's fingertip into a single point of golden divine light as brilliant as a blazing sun.

Great Perfection Space Law turned into countless invisible dimensional blades, and Great Perfection Five Elements Disintegration turned into the fire of order that incinerated all heresy.

Three supreme inner universe Laws perfectly fused into this one finger, turning into a clear and transparent ripple of terrifying Law that contained the complete erasure of all external concepts.

An incredible scene of despair was shockingly played out at the edge of this pure white space.

The moment that pitch-black Void Origin, carrying the power to decay all things, touched the transparent ripple pointed out from Zhou Wannian's fingertip, it was like fragile black mist encountering a supernova explosion capable of melting stars.

No stalemate of energy confrontation occurred, nor was there any deafening roar.

Starting from the very front of the contact, under the washing of the reversing flow of time, the process of decay of that bizarre Void Origin was forcibly reversed. Under the strangulation of Five Elements Disintegration and dimensional blades, those Void Laws that originally did not belong to this Universe System were like poisonous insects encountering a natural predator, instantly cut to pieces, decomposed, and burned.

In less than half a breath.

The pitch-black torrent sweeping across the sky completely disintegrated under Zhou Wannian's extremely casual finger, turning into harmless dust floating in the air.

But this was merely the appetizer of this absolute crushing power.

The transparent Law ripple continued unabated, like an invisible scythe of the grim reaper, sweeping across the hunched figure who was still holding the posture of spreading its arms with a face full of horror.

"This... how is this possible? How can your native power crush my race's Void Origin? What kind of monster are you?"

The hunched figure let out the most desperate and shrill scream of its life. In its greedy eyes hidden under the hood, they were now completely filled with extreme terror.

It tried to tear through the Void Realm to flee back to its own dimension.

But Zhou Wannian's Great Perfection Space Law had already completely locked the surrounding Void Realm into an indestructible iron plate.

Crack.

The transparent ripple gently brushed over the hunched figure's body.

There was no tragic scene of flesh and blood flying, nor any energy explosion.

Starting from its pale, withered fingertips, its powerful body capable of traversing different Multiverses, its bizarre Void Origin, and even its faint spark of Soul fire, were all completely disintegrated into the most basic dust within a ten-thousandth of an instant.

Puff.

A very slight muffled sound.

That arrogant Void Plunderers, who had intended to devour this Universe, had no room for resistance under Zhou Wannian's extremely indifferent finger and directly turned into a cloud of fine gray powder, sprinkling into the spatial crack that had not yet fully closed.

Instant kill.

A true, absolute instant kill that crossed Universe dimensions. Effortless and clean to the extreme.

Zhou Wannian slowly withdrew his right hand, his deep gaze looking through the crack that was rapidly healing under the effect of the Great Perfection Space Law, toward the infinitely deep other-dimensional voids filled with unknown dangers beyond the crack.

He didn't pursue, but simply dusted off the sleeves of his green robe, a faint smile of interest appearing on his handsome face.

Zhou Wannian's tone was steady, with a leisurely sense of relaxation, as he whispered to himself: "It seems that beyond this Great Primordial Void, there are even more interesting worlds and blind fools. My newly perfected inner universe won't have to worry about lacking new fun and nourishment."

He turned around and didn't look at this Source Core space which had already become completely peaceful.

With his hands behind his back and his green robe fluttering, he took steady and slow steps.

Great Perfection Space Law flowed beneath his feet.

Zhou Wannian didn't look back, but simply, with extreme casualness, took a composed step out of this pure white space toward that vast and boundless Great Primordial Void filled with infinite unknowns.

A faint curve hooked at the corner of Zhou Wannian's mouth as he said softly: "The old journey has ended. A new stroll has just begun."
