TL: Etude
In the Supreme Hall of Humanity.
Ye Tian quickly met with Kunwu Supreme in the Kunwu Pavilion.
When Ye Tian saw Kunwu Supreme, he noticed that Kunwu Supremeâs aura was somewhat weak, indicating he was injured. However, the injury was not severe, much less so than the injury Dominator Dark had previously suffered.
âI greet Kunwu Supreme!â Ye Tian bowed in respect.
âI heard you killed a Destruction Beast in the Pan Star Field. Well done!â Kunwu Supreme praised.
âI only killed the weakest Destruction Beast. Itâs not worth mentioning,â Ye Tian responded modestly.
âEven the weakest Destruction Beast is quite formidable. These creatures are extremely difficult to deal with. Generally, Universal Gods donât even qualify to confront the weakest of them. Itâs a pity your current cultivation level is only at the peak of the Planetary System level. How great it would be if you were at the Supreme level now!â Kunwu Supreme sighed.
If Ye Tian were at the Supreme level, he would undoubtedly be the most terrifying Supreme. He might even sweep through the Abyss of Destruction single-handedly. But for now, Ye Tian had yet to truly grow into his full potential.
âKunwu Supreme, what is the current situation in the Abyss of Destruction?â Ye Tian asked curiously.
This time, he mainly came to inquire about the Abyss of Destruction. Knowing more would help him prepare better. If the situation were more serious, he could take appropriate measures.
âItâs stable, but not completely resolved,â Kunwu Supreme replied. âThe most terrifying Destruction Beast deep in the Abyss of Destruction has been suppressed by the combined efforts of the First Divine Lord of the Immortal Race and the First Demon Lord of the Demon Race. The other powerful Destruction Beasts that escaped into the universe have also been hunted down and killed. Even the weaker Destruction Beasts are now few in number and will soon be found and eradicated. Currently, some strong warriors from various races are teaming up to eliminate the outer perimeter of the Abyss of Destruction and quell the unrest. According to past practices, those Destruction Beasts, realizing they cannot defeat the various races, will instinctively return to the depths of the Abyss of Destruction and will not emerge for a long time.â
Hearing Kunwu Supremeâs words, Ye Tian felt a bit relieved. However, Kunwu Supreme suddenly added, âYe Tian, although the unrest in the Abyss of Destruction has stabilized, we plan to send a group of talented cultivators who have created their own Dao of Laws into the Abyss of Destruction. You are definitely the most suitable candidate, more so than anyone else. Your strength can be more effectively utilized in the Abyss of Destruction. After all, your physical strength far surpasses that of others, even us Supremes.â
âWhat? You want me to enter the Abyss of Destruction?â Ye Tian was shocked.
âKunwu Supreme, the Destruction Beasts can fully unleash their power in the Abyss of Destruction, even more so than outside. Even if I can wield formidable physical strength, my combat power would be significantly reduced compared to outside. I wouldnât be able to contend with even the weakest Destruction Beast. Entering the Abyss of Destruction would be suicidal,â Ye Tian immediately refused.
Kunwu Supreme explained, âYe Tian, I havenât finished speaking. The Abyss of Destruction shields the universeâs origin, making us Supremes hesitant to enter. But this time is different. This time, the Destruction Beasts broke out of the Abyss, allowing some of the universeâs rules to penetrate in. Although it canât invade the Abyss of Destruction permanently, it can last for a few hundred years without issue. We are sending people into the Abyss of Destruction because there is an incredible opportunity in the middle layer of the Abyss, rumored to be related to the origin of the universe. In the past, people who entered gained remarkable power. For instance, the First Divine Lord of the Immortal Race and the First Demon Lord of the Demon Race both entered the middle layer of the Abyss of Destruction and successfully came out alive. Many have entered, and many have exited, but the highest achievements belong to the First Divine Lord and the First Demon Lord. Itâs said that the middle layer houses a special realm. However, we humans have risen only recently, and itâs our first time learning about that place. This opportunity is extremely precious, and itâs only open to cultivators below the Universal God level. If you are unwilling, I wonât force you.â
Ye Tian did not hesitate at all and immediately agreed. âI agree!â
Ye Tian didnât want to miss this opportunity. Once the universeâs rules withdrew from the Abyss of Destruction, even the Immortal Race and Demon Race, with all their might, wouldnât dare enter to battle the Destruction Beasts.
With the universeâs rules now invading the Abyss of Destruction, the various clans had managed to reach the middle layers of the Abyss and temporarily control the area. This was a unique opportunity; missing it would mean waiting for countless ages for another chance. If he missed this, he would lose this opportunity forever. Therefore, he was determined not to miss it.
Seeing Ye Tian agree, Kunwu Supreme felt relieved. If Ye Tian had refused out of fear, he might have felt some relief but would also have been very disappointed. A genius who feared danger was not a true genius!
âGood, Iâll make the arrangements. Go back and wait for the notification. This is the best opportunity I can secure for you; there wonât be another chance like this,â Kunwu Supreme said.
âThank you, Kunwu Supreme!â Ye Tian expressed his gratitude. He understood very well that many people from the nine Supreme-level forces of the human race would want this slot. Even within the Supreme Hall of Humanity, many would vie for it. Yet, Kunwu Supreme had still given him a slot, showing immense trust and regard, even though it might provoke dissatisfaction among some within the Supreme Hall.
After chatting with Kunwu Supreme for a while, Ye Tian left the Supreme Hall of Humanity. Upon returning to the headquarters of the Tian Pavilion, he entered seclusion to both rest and prepare.
Five months later.
Kunwu Supreme summoned Ye Tian again.
Before long, Ye Tian once more stood before Kunwu Supreme.
âYe Tian, the time has come. Iâll personally take you to the Abyss of Destruction. Itâs still dangerous there, and without a Supreme escort, you wouldnât be able to reach it,â Kunwu Supreme said.
âUnderstood,â Ye Tian replied, fully compliant with the arrangements.
A few days later, under Kunwu Supremeâs escort, Ye Tian arrived at the Abyss of Destruction. The abyss was different from what he had seen before; its destructive aura was now even more terrifying, and the pressure more intense. The area was saturated with the auras of Supremes and some dreadful destructive energies. Just sensing it with his divine sense nearly caused his mind to freeze. Clearly, even a tiny fraction of such power was beyond what Ye Tian could endure.
Near the Abyss of Destruction, the human race had established a small temporary base. Ye Tian was taken into this base.
âWeâll wait a few more days until everyone has arrived, then send you all in together. This time, the operation is under the command of the Immortal Race and Demon Race. Ye Tian, make sure not to clash with them before entering, as it would complicate matters,â Kunwu Supreme advised.
âKunwu Supreme, donât worry. I understand,â Ye Tian nodded.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed. About eighteen top-tier warriors from the human race, at the Planetary System and Galaxy levels, arrived. Warriors from other clans at similar levels also gathered.
At this moment, two towering figures appeared in the void, seemingly overshadowing the entire sky.
âThe First Divine Lord of the Immortal Race!â
âThe First Demon Lord of the Demon Race!â
Ye Tian looked at these two figures, murmuring to himself in awe.
