Chapter 1786: Infinite Universe
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Chaotic cosmos…”
Lin Huang looked at the information that detailed what was outside the universe with his eyes wide.
According to the description, just like the universe, the complicated dimension that contained countless great worlds, mini worlds, gravel worlds and regular universes was called the chaotic cosmos.
Meanwhile, there were similar countless chaotic cosmoses outside the universe.
The countless chaotic cosmoses made up the chaotic ocean.
Some called it the ocean of chaos, some called it the infinite universe, some called it the only universe, while some called it the supreme universe…
The reason why the chaotic ocean had so many names was because it was boundless and constantly expanding.
Everything in the world was created there; everything was included.
Its existence was the starting point of time, as well as the starting point of s.p.a.ce…
Before its appearance, everything was nothingness.
Since it appeared, its existence was eternal.
The chaotic cosmoses it contained were not only boundless in quant.i.ty, they were also endless in time and s.p.a.ce.

No matter how many parallel universes were split off from a chaotic cosmos, no matter which timeline a chaotic cosmos was on, from the beginning to end, one could find it in this chaotic ocean any time.
It did not only contain all material planes, it also contained the dreams, imaginations, and the split-second thoughts of all the living beings on the material plane…
All of the writers, artists, playwrights, creators of all sorts… All of the living beings, non-living beings, tangibles, non-tangibles, souls, thoughts and information that could be imagined… Everything was contained within this boundless cosmos.
It could derive everything within a second.
Lin Huang had always speculated that there was a broader world outside the universe.
Never had he thought that it would be such a supreme cosmos.
After reading about the chaotic ocean, Lin Huang looked back at the system of dominator-level.
The combat strength categorization of dominator-level was very simple and straightforward.
One would be at dominator-level rank-1 when they refined one to ten chaotic cosmoses.
One would be at dominator-level rank-2 when they refined 11 to a hundred chaotic cosmoses.
One would be at dominator-level rank-3 when they refined 101 to 1,000 chaotic cosmoses.
One would be at dominator-level rank-4 when they refined 1,001 to 10,000 chaotic cosmoses.
One would be at dominator-level rank-5 when they refined 10,001 to 100,000 chaotic cosmoses.
The strength of one’s Kingdom when they broke through to heavenly dao-level was the main factor in deciding how many chaotic cosmoses one could refine.
Due to the restriction of the strength of one’s Kingdom, most dominator-level powerhouses would usually stop at dominator-level rank-1 and could no longer move on. The ratio almost surpa.s.sed 80% among the dominator-level powerhouses.
The higher the rank, the fewer the people.
There were only a couple of dominator-level rank-5 throughout the history of the entire chaotic ocean.
Not only that, according to all of the data records, since there was a history record of the chaotic ocean, n.o.body had even broken through past dominator-level rank-5.
“The legendary Aza should be at rank-4 at least. He might even be at dominator-level rank-5…” Lin Huang frowned as he speculated.
It was only after he came across this information that he finally believed what White Brow said back then.
To Aza, the universe was just a speck of dust.
To powerhouses at dominator-level rank-4 and dominator-level rank-5, the universe was just a regular chaotic ocean, and it was merely one-ten-thousandth of the Kingdoms in their body. Indeed, they could destroy it with a mere flip of their hand.
Although Lin Huang speculated roughly how powerful Aza was, he was not exactly shocked.
Instead, he thought that, compared to the chaotic ocean, a dominator-level rank-5 powerhouse was not as shocking to him.
“The highest combat strength is just dominator-level rank-5 due to the restriction of the strength of one’s Kingdom…” Lin Huang had tens of thousands of thoughts running through his mind when he read that. “The foundation of my Kingdom is countless times more powerful than powerhouses of the same level. Is it possible that I can break through past dominator-level rank-5?”
Lin Huang merely fantasized for a moment, before discovering a realistic problem.
“One would need to consolidate nine Kingdoms to get to heavenly dao-level. How can I consolidate a second Kingdom of the same strength now?!”
He could not help but feel troubled as he thought up to this point.
He got his Kingdom completely by chance.
It was almost impossible to build a Kingdom that was of the same strength.
After some fruitless thinking, Lin Huang shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts he had.
“Forget it, I won’t think about it for now. I’ll fill my Kingdom with the maximum number of Dao seals it can contain, after which I’ll finally think about what to do next.”
He then looked at the third doc.u.ment.
He paid for this doc.u.ment. Qian s.h.i.+san asked for an exotic treasure, and Lin Huang had given him White Brow’s corpse.
Since he did not plan to return the corpse, this was the best possible use for it.
Moreover, the corpse was with Qian s.h.i.+san now. He did not have to worry that it would end up with the Black Abyss or the Longevity Tribe.
Lin Huang checked the doc.u.ment thoroughly after opening it.
He had finally found out details regarding the Black Abyss.
The Black Abyss originated from the Raiders.
It was a heavenly dao-level Raider, who had accidentally triggered a clone Aza left behind deep in the Abyss while he was hunting in the Abyss. He was contaminated by the clone and became Aza’s believer.
However, the contamination did not turn him into an Abyssal creature, but instead he hid among the Raiders by remaining in his original form and mental state.
Later on, the heavenly dao-level powerhouse used all sorts of techniques to lure many Raiders to join him.
There were even some powerhouses at peak major dao-level who were elevated to heavenly dao-level with the power Aza’s clone provided.
There were a total of seven official Black Abyss members. There were all heavenly dao-level powerhouses.
The most powerful one among them was suspected to have reached heavenly dao-level rank-9.
The seven of them had many dao-level reserve members under them.
At the moment, at least one-third of the Raiders had been contaminated by Aza’s power and had become members of the Black Abyss…
Lin Huang could not help but frown lightly after reading that information.
Naturally, he did not like the Raiders at all, as they had been his enemies from the beginning. However, he indeed did not expect that they had been contaminated by the Black Abyss internally to this extent.
He did not have any sympathy for the Raiders’ situation, nor did he have any good feelings about the Black Abyss.
To him, the conflict between the Black Abyss and the Raiders was merely part of this dog-eat-dog existence.
Nevertheless, Lin Huang did not really want to see the Raiders being fully converted into Black Abyss members. The reason being was that the people in the Black Abyss were basically Abyssal creatures by nature.
If he had to compare which was more evil, the Black Abyss was definitely more evil compared to the Raiders.
The reason being was that their hunting targets were not limited to Club members and other travelers. To them, all cultivators, and even regular people, were viable targets.
To them, everyone only had two options. They either had to accept the contamination of Aza, or die.
Therefore, to be exact, the Black Abyss was the public enemy of the entire universe in the truest sense!
