Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 1361: Chapter 29: Devouring the Chaos Void

He had done everything possible to survive this trial, slumbering in the Original Divine Gold coffin, sinking to the depths of the ocean.

Yet, in the end, he still died.

"A trial against the consciousness of the world?"

Images flashed in the mind of the tentacle creature, finally sensing the power of the world itself crushing him.

"How can I get through this?"

The tentacle creature felt despair in his heart.

At the same time, he could clearly feel his own vast psychic consciousness rapidly annihilating.

Ten billion and eight thousand trials, with each one passed, his strength would increase slightly.

But the same way, if one trial was not passed, waiting for him would be complete death.

The psychic consciousness would dissipate.

Leaving not a trace.

"Transcendence! Transcendence! Without passing through ten billion and eight thousand trials, how can I transcend?"

The tentacle creature’s aura spread, within the territory, heaven collapsed and earth cracked, time and space ceased to exist.

A moment later.

The tentacle creature gradually calmed down.

At this moment, most of his psychic consciousness had dispersed, with the rest dissipating at an ever-increasing rate.

The tentacle creature took one last look at his territory, and then the last wisp of psychic will completely dissipated.

Before the psychic will dissipated, the tentacle creature actively annihilated his own body.

Any strong being wouldn’t want their body to be left behind after their death.

The body of a Time Lord contains many wonderful uses, making it into a puppet? Or absorbing/consuming it, etc.

And these uses, to the Lord themselves, are considered ’humiliation’.

So as long as it’s possible, Lords will let their body self-annihilate before they die.

The Lord of Heaven Light from the second source world left behind both the dark and light bodies only because he didn’t have time to self-annihilate.

In the attempt to break through to the fourteenth-stage Perfect Time Being, his psychic consciousness burned, the final push failed, dissipating too rapidly to leave the Lord of Heaven Light time to annihilate.

The immense tentacle creature experienced a hundred and eighty thousand trials, even if failing a trial, it doesn’t result in immediate death, allowing time to settle posthumous matters.

...

The immense tentacle creature completely fell, causality dissipating.

This immediately drew the attention of nearby Time Lords.

"Has Lord Qingzhang...fallen?"

"Failed in the attempt to transcend?"

"I always knew that Lord Qingzhang’s path to transcendence was bleak."

The Time Lords conversed with each other.

As Time Lords, as long as they don’t wish to die, they won’t die.

The only thing that can cause a Time Lord to completely fall and die is transcendence.

Transcendence is also what Time Lords pursue; only through transcendence can they break fate.

Thirteenth-stage Time Beings view future timelines, able to change the future to some extent, altering their own fate.

But the change here is minor, altering only minor fate, not the real grand fate that involves the ultimate fate of endless dimensional operations, which cannot be changed.

Therefore.

Every Time Lord pursues transcendence.

Among many paths to transcendence, transforming into a fourteenth-stage Perfect Time Being is the most orthodox method.

But this method is also the most difficult, so far there’s no known Time Lord who has transcended successfully using this method.

Apart from transforming into a fourteenth-stage Perfect Time Being, there are several paths of transcendence, each Time Lord will choose based on their own conditions and strengths.

...

Chaos Void.

Lord Mo Xu and six other Time Beings gather with Luo Hou, the newly ascended Time Being.

"Those Time Beings from the Taixu dimension are truly insane, willing to risk everything for that Heart of Heavenly River." The human-headed serpent-bodied figure spoke, a hint of anger and helplessness in his tone.

Lately, all seven of them, the Time Beings, have primarily been at the Milky Way dimension, battling with the Time Beings of the Taixu dimension.

But the results were not very satisfactory, as the Time Beings from the Taixu dimension showed no mercy.

"If they show no mercy, we don’t need to either."

Lord Mo Xu’s face carried a menacing air.

As the strongest Time Being in Chaos Void, Lord Mo Xu and the Master of Taixu from the Taixu dimension had yet to join the battle.

After all, if Time Beings of their level join in, it signifies the escalation of the slaughter.

But the actions of the Time Beings from the Taixu dimension made Lord Mo Xu very dissatisfied.

The Heart of Heavenly River was initially discovered by them, and to acquire it, the seven Time Beings from Chaos Void had already negotiated with other factions in the Milky Way dimension.

However, the interference from the Taixu dimension was not only unsolicited but also merciless.

"Do you need me to make a move?" Luo Hou asked in a low voice beside him.

Being a newly ascended thirteenth-stage, he was still stabilizing his realm in Chaos Void.

He had not yet gone to the Milky Way dimension.

"Not urgent for now."

Lord Mo Xu shook his head.

The situation in the Milky Way dimension is not too dire yet.

It’s not Luo Hou’s turn, a newly ascended Time Being, to take action.

Moreover, with Luo Hou’s current strength, even if he takes action, it wouldn’t be very useful.

Newly ascended Time Beings lack proficiency in mastering their power and future timelines.

There is still a large gap compared to the seven veteran Time Beings.

"Your primary focus now is to stabilize your realm."

Lord Mo Xu said.

"Alright."

Luo Hou nodded.

Having crossed into the thirteenth stage over a century, he was gradually adapting to the real means of thirteenth-stage Time Beings.

"Three days later..."

Lord Mo Xu was about to discuss strategies with the other six Time Beings to deal with the Time Beings from the Taixu dimension.

It was at this moment—

Lord Mo Xu’s expression slightly changed.
