Chapter 1403: Chapter 1403: More Secrets

“Actually, the reason I have ended up in such a miserable state has a lot to do with myself. In order to ascend dimensions and create a Divine Realm, I continuously endeavored. The establishment of a Divine Realm inherently requires numerous four-dimensional-level powerhouses as coordinate anchors. Through my assistance, I successfully attracted that four-dimensional Dragon Realm devoid of consciousness and origin, leading to the emergence of the Dragon-Transformation Era. I also aided the Sky Horse Clan in their ongoing evolution. This is what resulted in the emergence of so many strong individuals. However, once they reached the Super God Level, they had already surpassed my control. At that level, they could actively communicate with me, even achieving a state equal to my own.”

“At first, I always believed that the appearance of such powerhouses would undoubtedly become my allies. Yet, I neglected the fact that if they helped me achieve the Divine Realm, in the future, although they would become part of it, they would be part of a Divine Realm under my control. Meanwhile, I would ascend to the five-dimensional level and achieve godhood as a God King. A God King refers to the supreme powerhouse capable of mastering the five dimensions, the core and origin of the Divine Realm. Even the weakest Divine Realm must have a God King as its central figure to function, as the four-dimensional space centers around the five-dimensional mastery.”

“But as the Super God-level powerhouses I nurtured increased in number, so did their ambitions. Creating a Divine Realm is no easy feat; it’s not something a single generation of powerhouses can accomplish. Without a five-dimensional space coordinate, meaning unable to establish a Divine Realm, they too will succumb to aging, sickness, and death. How could they accept that willingly? To extend their lifespan, and for the possibility of becoming the future ruler at the God-King level, they eventually turned against me.”

“They united to seal my power, destroying the fruits of my painstaking efforts. They even caused the Twin Sky Horse Stars to regress to a certain degree. They absorbed a substantial amount of my life energy to empower themselves, making their lives even longer. Some even attempted to devour my energy to complete their evolution, thereby breaking through to the God-King level.”

“Unfortunately, they could never truly succeed. What I failed to accomplish after billions of years, how could they so easily achieve? It was I who nurtured them; honestly, this outcome is my error, and I do not resent them. I overlooked the inherent selfishness of sentient beings. But ultimately, they are destined to fail. Over-consuming my power, they hoped to use the breath of creation to seek a breakthrough, only to discover that my decay had destabilized the entire four-dimensional space, causing it to begin collapsing. They exist dependent on this four-dimensional space. Although they have gained the capability to leave it, if they detach from this fundamental world, they will never find another stable, evolution-supporting four-dimensional space like this one.”

“Upon realizing the crisis, they stopped devouring me and helped restore a portion of my power, forging an agreement with me for mutual survival. This stabilized the entire world.”

“But in truth, they have imprisoned me, dividing my divine consciousness and self-body into two separate parts, confined respectively on the Sky Dragon Planet and the Sky Horse Star. As long as these fragments of my consciousness remain separate, I cannot truly control the planet’s resources and am limited to acting within a restricted range. I, once the ruler of the four-dimensional space, have now fallen to such a woeful state.”

Lan Xuanyu listened to Long Tianyang’s account, feeling his worldview completely upended! As a life core, Long Tianyang’s plight had reached such unimaginable depths—it was truly hard to comprehend.

One must remember, the Eternal Tree, also a life core, was something the entire Douluo Federation protected with all its might. Shrek Academy would go to any lengths to shield it.

But considering Long Tianyang’s experience, could a similar fate unfold on Soul Land? If so many Super God-level powerhouses truly emerged, who could say what might happen? The rise of immense power inevitably breeds ambition. As Long Tianyang said, who wouldn’t aspire to become the one who controls the Divine Realm?

“But if they worked with you to accomplish the Divine Realm, wouldn’t they achieve immortality too? Why must they compete for dominance, leading to the loss of their opportunity to achieve godhood?” Lan Xuanyu voiced his confusion.

Long Tianyang replied, “As I just mentioned, creating the Divine Realm requires prolonged accumulation, necessitating step-by-step evolution. However, it’s not something a single generation can achieve. In other words, if these current Super God-level powerhouses assist me with the accumulation, they are likely to die upon reaching the end of their lifespans, serving as the foundation for the next generation’s efforts. Yet even the next generation may not succeed alongside me in creating the Divine Realm. As for how long this process will take, even I do not know. Ascending dimensions is exceedingly, exceedingly difficult. Particularly when using my peaceful method—it’s even more arduous.”

Hearing her explanation, Lan Xuanyu immediately understood. No one wants to die, especially after reaching the Super God-level—it becomes even more unthinkable. As such, these powerhouses would rather gamble than wait for death quietly.

“A peaceful method? Are there other, less peaceful methods?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

Long Tianyang replied, “Of course there are. Another way to ascend dimensions involves devouring. Ascending dimensions is essentially the process of accumulating lower-dimensional spaces. If one can devour enough lower-dimensional spaces, maybe even spaces with dimensions equal to one’s own, evolution naturally becomes easier. However, the high-dimensional spaces formed in this way tend to be unstable and prone to collapse. Their collapse can cause intense disturbances, potentially leading to high-dimensional temporal-spatial turbulence. I suspect that our Divine Realm disappeared in the past precisely because a higher-dimensional Divine Realm collapsed, causing the temporal-spatial turbulence to sweep it away. I don’t know if it also perished or drifted to another place.”

“The Mother of Deep Red you saw today is a being specializing in evolving through devouring. Although her four-dimensional space lacks a physical self-body and is instead formed by an energy entity, such energy-based dimensional spaces are inherently less stable than the tangible dimensions like ours. But they excel in devouring abilities, sustaining their own energy and evolution through constant consumption of lower dimensions. The Mother of Deep Red herself is equivalent to a Super God-level powerhouse. The difference lies in her complete control over her four-dimensional space, effectively possessing an entire four-dimensional space as her foundation, which she uses as her power reserve. At her level, she has already reached the realm of a Half-step God King.”

Lan Xuanyu’s eyes widened in shock. The origins of the Mother of Deep Red were terrifying! He now understood why Long Tianyang first explained the concept of dimensions—so he could better grasp the levels at which these powerhouses existed. God-level powerhouses correspond to the four-dimensional-space level, while the highest entity in the four-dimensional space is a Super God-level powerhouse. The Divine Realm and God Kings exist within five-dimensional space. The Mother of Deep Red must fall somewhere between the four-dimensional and five-dimensional levels, as she hasn’t fully controlled the fifth dimension, making her a Half-step God King.

“Then, compared to you in the past, who was stronger—the Mother of Deep Red or you?” Lan Xuanyu continued asking.

Long Tianyang replied, “In terms of dimensional level, we are similar. However, because I possess a tangible four-dimensional space, I also possess creative properties. My Twin Stars are far more stable than hers—they’re true, solid four-dimensional spaces. On the other hand, her four-dimensional space’s destructive power is greater but far less stable. Her greatest desire has always been to devour me. If she succeeded in devouring me, she would very likely break through the barrier, ascend dimensions, and achieve godhood as a God King.”
