Looking back, the "Cosmos is square, not round" that Li Qing painstakingly created was a deception that took great effort to finally make the lie convincing.
But now, his hard work, representing the emblem of an era—the Crystal Wall Universe—is it about to be phased out with the advent of the new era?
Not necessarily!
In the future, even if new imperfect Material Saints appear and modify the shape of the universe, even if they reshape planets into different styles, there won’t be too many changes.
The Crystal Wall is one of the most reasonable structures.
In the infinite Multi-dinsional Universe, most of the foundational designs should still follow this form.
Of course, as more Saints erge, so are bound to be brainless, aiming to show off by creating all sorts of impractical, flashy cosmic shapes.
Take the current era as an example: after Li Qing and a Scroll Universe Saint discussed Dao, everyone developed a competitive spirit.
No matter if it’s practical or not, the first priority is to look extravagant.
After all, a mundane structure, no matter how practical, fails to express this Saint’s understanding of the Dao, various techniques, and foundation.
How can one showcase high status?
Thus, nurous Saints exhibited their skills, researched various new shapes, treated their cosmos as an experintal field to gain Nokron’s official recognition, and flaunted it everywhere.
Year 220 of the Multi-dinsional Universe.
Elis was confined and slacking off while Atabia traversed wildly.
During the peaceful intermission of these two giants, Nokron’s multi-dinsional pilgrimage, traveling and fishing everywhere, gradually beca warmly welcod by various universes.
To welco this eminent arrival.
Space Saints showcased the unique wonders of their universes, demonstrating extraordinary Dao techniques, painting and sculpting dragons and phoenixes across the universe, even treating the entire universe as a vase to hollow out, layer, and carve...
Countless techniques erged endlessly.
Li Qing even saw a universe shaped as a teapot that actually let you drink tea.
Of course, there was also a universe turned into a flowerpot where fishing could be perford, with pools of heavenly worlds serving as fish.
And whereas the Saints of Life couldn’t carve universes, they showcased flashy life techniques with slight differences.
They researched new techniques and skills for capturing the Outer Domain Celestial Demons, even created more than ten versions of the Demon-Revealing Mirror, excessively flamboyant.
Within a Celestial Realm.
Mists swirled, Dao spiraled.
Upon the Supre Saint’s throne, the Saint’s grand voice swept through the domain:
"According to the Outer Domain Celestial Demon’s reports hidden in other universes, the Ancient Saint has departed from the Changhu Universe and is likely heading to ours soon."
Below, the Gods of varied forms and ancient authority continued listening as the Saint spoke: "We must undertake the final cosmic restructuring, urging each of you to strive for the final sprint."
"Your Majesty, curious sights ruin a nation!" An Ancient God stepped forward to admonish, "Why bother to please that Ancient Saint?"
"Indeed, Your Majesty, the cosmological environnt should remain practical; these extravagant techniques don’t hold much difference from functional universes, yet they are laborious."
Various Ancient Gods couldn’t help but voice their opinions.
This massive national power is indulging in useless endeavors.
The Saints show no regard for benefiting the world’s people, nor governing the cosmos with benevolent policies and managing; they only engage in large-scale civil engineering, constructing gorgeous cosmic palaces...
In pursuit of pleasures, how does this differ from the acts of a Tyrant?
"Youth." The Saint shook his head.
Are they really just pleasing the Ancient Saint?
They are showcasing their strength!
These glitzy and impractical techniques, flamboyant as they are, do indeed embody highly advanced technology!
Much like the variety of countries on Earth in past eras, why hold military parades that consu national power?
To demonstrate the might of their cosmos!
As a Saint, one’s carving skills are superior, more lavish, and visually pleasing compared to others.
After all, everyone uses functional universes; how do you make your cosmos stand out?
If you can’t make your cosmos stand out, how do you attract the allegiance of other young people? To recruit? To attract talent from various Parallel Universes?
Young heroes converge from eighty-one universes; once they find the Dao through "All Roads Lead to Ro," they beco prodigies of 140, ultimately needing a universe to settle in, naturally using the most direct thod to draw others in and attract foreign talent.
Appealing!
That’s the representation of your Saint’s path, superior techniques, and stronger foundation in this universe.
And as allegiance grows, more talent accumulates, fa surges; who would initiate a snowball effect?
This snowball effect leads to the elimination of other universes—truly a matter of life and death.
Is it rely flamboyant?
If it’s not flamboyant, it must perish!
This cosmic period is overly absurd; everyone is competing for more extravagance.
Yet, seemingly, it’s also a developntal trend.
Who would want to associate with sothing ugly?
Your universe would then be dood.
"We must complete this superficial project, even if adorned with external gold and jade but decayed within."
The Saint smirked coldly, "Even if a building nad ’Cosmos’ lacks funds for renovation, the exterior must be glorious, even if the inside is full of rotten bricks."
At this mont, a voice emanated from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, the Ancient Saint is about to arrive."
The Saint’s eyes lit up, hastily tidying his posture and shaking off his robes, leading the cosmic civil and military officials and Ancient Gods to greet the arrival.
After all, everyone is competing with their grand cosmic works; who would make the most fair and renowned judge?
The answer is self-evident!
"Welco Ancient Saint, eternal years and unification of dinsions."
"Welco Ancient Saint, eternal years and unification of dinsions."
Voices echoed throughout the cosmos, as if the entire universe were set to welco an unprecedented banquet, with countless Ancient Immortal Fairies scattering flowers in the Celestial Realm, enchanting and magnificent.
Li Qing arrived with two maidens, accustod to such hospitality over the years.
But Sylvie found it hard to adapt:
"We seem like those corrupt officials, belly bulging, touring on public funds everywhere—isn’t it likely that so expert will suddenly erge and assassinate us, shouting ’You corrupt bureaucrat, wreaking havoc, erecting statues, constructing palaces—prepare to die!’?"
Li Qing couldn’t be bothered to respond.
These days are too blissful, as if reaching a life’s pinnacle!
In every place, there are local specialties, beauties coming forth to greet.
Previously timid, retreating in cosmic shadows as a mastermind with monopolistic cosmic power, he couldn’t enjoy it, lacking a corresponding grand entrance.
Now, the entire universe must heed his wishes, boldly reigning as the corrupt Emperor, regional beauty contests, cosmic theatrics—all for winning his laughter, actually quite amusing.
However.
This series of pilgrimages ultimately signifies the dawn of a magnificent era.
By Year 230 of the Multi-dinsional Universe, the era of Splendid Universe truly comnced, entering the beauty contest era, with Nokron as judge and various splendid, intricate beautiful universes erging, respectfully requesting evaluation, historically called the Great Sculptural Era.
