1511 The Universal Energy.
"I find it hard to believe that sothing that can make you thousands of tis stronger than before when you don't even know what it is will turn out to be useless."
Vyriana was positive.
Her instincts told her the mont Nux understood what this black hole inside him was would be the mont he would beco a truly broken existence that no one else would be able to fathom.
And Nux wasn't any different, despite not knowing what it was, he was certain that this black hole was what would write his future path.
The path to the peak, the path to beco the strongest.
He just needed to understand what this thing was.
And that's what he had been trying to do, when others trained, he used the chance to enter the black space again, he didn't understand anything, but he believed just staying here made him closer to it and since following his instincts was the only thing he could do right now, that is what he did.
He had already gotten used to his body in these hundreds of years he spent together with his wives, since his wives were now stronger than him, they also helped him master the Zenith Flow again and since he had done it so many tis, this ti, he only needed a few decades to repeat it.
Of course, the Zenith Flow still wasn't complete.
Nux had many goals in his head.
The first one was upgrading all his existing Bloodlines to Primordial Levels, not only that, during the ti he spent inside the illusion, he also found a few other extrely useful bloodlines, he wanted to assimilate those bloodlines into his body as well.
He wanted to do all of that as soon as he returned after spending ti with his wives, but then he had to co here since it was an ergency.
Anyways, ti passed inside the Cosmocraft. Nux and his wives closed their eyes and started cultivating.
At their level, Cultivation didn't just an gathering Mana and getting stronger, that wasn't even possible inside the Cosmocraft, what the won were doing was trying to comprehend their Laws even further.
Cultivation had never been a problem for them from the beginning, especially for the won who had t Nux in the forgotten continent and had relied on him ever since.
They had left the cultivation aspect of their journey to their husband. They would be fools if they didn't use such... pleasurable way of cultivation and stuck to the sa old boring stuff.
Right now, focusing on their Laws was their priority.
As for Nux, he simply returned to the black space again.
What did he do?
Well, there wasn't anything he could do. He just stood there in a daze, trying not to get lost in this space and understanding sothing, anything about it.
...
4 years passed by in an instant, fortunately, the journey was smooth despite there being an ongoing war in the universe. It was probably because the region they were in was too far from the area of effect, which was a good thing.
Anyways, with their destination now close, Nux and the others quickly beca alert and focused on their goal.
In a few minutes, the world Vyriana had her eyes on would appear in view. The Cosmocraft had significantly slowed down because Vyriana needed to recover her Mana and since Mana didn't exist here, Nux montarily sent her back to Yrniel before bringing her back again.
Of course, using Mana Stones was also a possibility, but they didn't feel the need to use usable resources when they had a more efficient thod available.
Anyways, as the Cosmocraft continued to move, finally after a long while, Nux and the others could see sothing other than a starry black sky.
A Planet.
Or a World.
"That's the one, right?" Ember questioned.
As a once-renowned War general, she was quite excited to participate in this operation.
"..."
She, however, didn't get her answer.
Frowning, she turned towards Vyriana and saw her staring at the World with a solemn look on her face.
"What happened?"
Ember questioned.
"The world is under attack."
Vyriana answered.
As soone who had seen this world before, she could instantly notice the changes that took place because of the big-scale Wars that happened.
"Are we late...?"
Riona asked.
Vyriana however, shook her head,
"I can still sense the World's Will."
"So we are still on ti."
"Let's not waste more ti.
There is still a chance."
Nux spoke up.
"Don't be in a hurry,
As I said, we still need to analyse our opponents, if they are beings we cannot completely annihilate, or if they belong to a high-level world, we need to give up on this world.
Safety is our priority here."
Vyriana warned.
She had an unwilling expression on her face.
Even she herself didn't like such a passive approach, she, however, didn't have a choice. That was the consequence of being weak.
If she were a part of a Supre World, she could have barged in without any fear and conquered the world.
Of course, 'ifs' and 'thens' weren't sothing the Dragon cared about.
She was grateful for what she had and right now, she simply needed to calmly think of the best course of action.
"Yes Yes, I understand.
Anyways, what do we do with this Cosmocraft?"
Nux questioned.
This thing might have the ability to conceal itself, but the ability itself wasn't strong, if they moved any closer, other forces that were already on high alert would notice them.
"You will be storing it in your ring and we will move according to the plan we discussed."
Vyriana answered.
Nux and the others nodded.
Then, Nux opened a Portal and all the won except Lane walked in.
"Be careful," Felberta spoke, she wasn't worried, after all, she fully trusted Nux and his ability.
Seeing that, Nux smiled.
"I'll call you all soon."
Saying those words, he closed the portals.
He turned back and glanced at Lane, the Shadow Demon nodded before returning to his shadow.
"Shall we move out?" Nux questioned.
'Yes.'
Lane nodded.
Nux then activated his Essence to conceal his presence and exited the Cosmocraft. After storing it inside his ring, he turned towards the world, however, just as he was about to rush towards it.
He paused.
'What happened?'
Lane frowned.
Their plan was simple, since Nux's ability to conceal himself was the strongest amongst them all, strong enough to even fool Aeliana's senses, he would go and analyse the forces attacking the world.
He wasn't very experienced however, Vyriana had told him a few things to look out for and according to them, he would infer if they should continue or abort their mission and return.
It was a fairly simple plan, but Nux, for so reason, stood there in silence, which confused Lane.
'Do you sense it?'
Nux questioned.
'Sense what?'
'This energy...'
'The Universal Energy...?'
'Yes.'
Nux nodded.
Vyriana had told them about it.
The absence of breathable air wasn't the only thing that made Outer Space unsuitable for weaker beings, there were many other factors.
The falling teors or other space debris, the dangerously strong wind currents that could cut even the strongest of Divine Stage Cultivators into pieces, uneven gravity that could tear one apart, spaces of complete vacuum that could suck one into oblivion, extre temperatures unsuitable for life, And the most dangerous of all,
The Universal Energy.
Unlike most things ntioned before which could be avoided if one was careful enough, the Universal Energy was different.
Like how Yrniel had Mana, different other worlds had different sorts of energies, the Universe had sothing called the Universe Energy. Unlike other forms of energy, however, Universal Energy wasn't considered to be beneficial for a cultivator or any other living being.
According to the Progenitors' Theory, the Universal Energy existed to destroy or devour all other forms of energies. This was also the reason why energies of different worlds do not mix together, or why beings from one world couldn't sense the energy from another world despite that world being right next to them.
There was also another theory where it was said that the Universal Energy was a mixture of all the types of energies released from all the worlds. Whether the theory was true or not, the Progenitors weren't sure, However, one thing was certain,
The Universal Energy was strong enough to completely devour or destroy any other form of energy, and if a being, no matter how strong, stayed in contact with it for too long, his source energy would be devoured as well, turning him into a weak mortal.
As for how long can one 'safely survive' while being in contact with the Universal Energy, since that is done by forming an energy shield around oneself, it would depend on the quality of the energy one cultivates and the ti it takes for the Universal Energy to devour the shield before it starts devouring his 'source energy'.
'Nux, what is happening...?'
Lane questioned with a worried look on her face.
Seeing Nux just staring into the void with a dazed look on her face, she couldn't help but panic.
'The Black Hole is eating away the Universal Energy...'
