metaverse evolution.

After the fleet was overtaken by the Chaos Beast, the Goddess of Nature finally made a move, releasing her domain. This domain directly covered tens of millions of kilometers of void, encompassing the fleet and the Chaos Beast. A faint fluorescent glow enveloped the void.

However, before the Goddess of Nature could unleash her power, the Chaos Beast activated its Stomp skill again, and the Goddess of Nature's domain shattered with a deafening roar. The Goddess of Nature let out a muffled groan as the simulated flesh and blood body began to crack, like porcelain about to shatter.

Just as her body was about to shatter, the Goddess of Nature let out a low roar, and her flesh and blood body vanished instantly, revealing a dazzling "holy body" in the void.

The sacred body was over 100,000 kilometers tall, similar in size to a chaotic divine beast. Its body was like a condensed starry sky, with faint starlight outlining a vaguely beautiful yet furious face.

After the Holy Body was restored, the backlash disappeared instantly.

All that could be seen was the goddess of nature reaching out her hand, and a palm made of "starlight" appeared in the void. The enormous palm spanned millions of kilometers and directly grasped a chaotic divine beast.

Almost the instant the Goddess of Nature grasped the Chaos Beast, an "extreme ultraviolet laser concentrated fire attack" erupted from the "Temple Ship" and arrived simultaneously.

There was no sound or light in the void, only pitch blackness; all that could be seen was that the unfortunate Chaos Beast suddenly "shone brightly," having been directly ignited by the laser.

The powerful laser gradually burned through the body of the Chaos Beast, but because the Chaos Beast's body was too strong, the laser could not penetrate it, causing energy to accumulate inside its body.

The massive amount of energy directly illuminated the entire Chaos Beast, turning it into a super light bulb. Combined with the Chaos Beast's enormous size of 100,000 kilometers, it resembled a small star.

But this tiny star, this super light bulb, couldn't last even a second before it began to crack.

With the combined efforts of the Goddess of Nature and the concentrated laser attacks, the chaotic beast was clearly on the verge of collapse.

However, the surrounding Chaos Beasts reacted quickly, attacking the Goddess of Nature to save their companions. The injured Chaos Beast was knocked away, but another Chaos Beast created a domain to block the laser.

Everything happened in an instant; the Goddess of Nature was forced back by the multi-headed Chaos Beast. The Chaos Beast, which had narrowly escaped death, was rapidly recovering.

More chaotic divine beasts charged towards the fleet and the goddess of nature, causing ripples in the void—this could be considered gravitational waves.

When the Chaos Beast once again tore through the Goddess of Nature's domain and swept wildly to a distance of a million kilometers from the fleet, the Chaos Beast's domain and spatial abilities clashed with the Creation Ability of the Ascending Dragon Palace fleet.

Vacuum energy bombs were exploding continuously, plunging the surrounding space into chaos. Although the Chaos Beast possessed the ability to "trample space and strangle space," it was powerless if space itself was shattered.

But the Chaos Beast can still move freely through the chaos. Without the obstruction of space, the Chaos Beast says—it feels like coming home.

The fleet has its own reasons for doing this.

Firstly, there are methods to block the gravitational waves caused by the Chaos Beast's impact. Secondly, without interference from the real world, the creation methods on the Dragon Ascension Palace's spaceship are more efficient, which can assist their own attack and combat methods.

As the Chaos Beasts began to traverse through the chaos, the "destroyers" of the Ascending Dragon Palace also actively moved closer to them.

A destroyer three thousand kilometers in size seems insignificant before a chaotic beast a hundred thousand kilometers in size. Yet, these very warships, in droves, fearlessly and relentlessly charged towards the chaotic beast.

The creation technology of the Ascending Dragon Palace clashed with the domain of the Chaos Beast, and the virtual quantum domain overlapped with the domain of the Chaos Beast, vying for control.

Big data deletion methods enhanced by meme technology are constantly emerging, randomly deleting certain laws within the bodies of chaotic beasts, and even if they cannot be deleted, they will cause continuous interference.
Computer technology provides enormous computing power, replacing the function of the "spirit".

The superimposed metaverse domains of numerous cultivators in the Ascending Dragon Palace ultimately formed a super composite domain encompassing tens of millions of kilometers in radius. Computers were also superimposed within it, providing unimaginable computing power.

The realm of the Goddess of Nature has also been incorporated into this. Over the years, the Goddess of Nature has learned a great deal, understanding how to coordinate with computer control and perfectly complement big data technology and big data practitioners.

The combination of multiple technologies pushes the "virtual quantum realm" to its limit, clashing with the realm of the chaotic beasts, and the two sides begin to vie for the "power of creation".

Once the virtual quantum realm gains the upper hand, attacks such as laser beams, big data deletion, and quantum wave pulses rain down on the Chaos Beast, leaving it with no choice but to withstand the onslaught. Once the Chaos Beast's domain gains the upper hand, most of the attacks become ineffective, and a number of spaceships will quickly collapse under the Chaos Beast's counterattack.

Unfortunately, the Chaos Beasts' domain is currently more dominant. However, they have more warships!

More than 70,000 destroyers and more than 300 Chaos Beasts—it would be worth it to trade 20 warships for just one Chaos Beast!

Under these circumstances, the warships chose to take the initiative and launch an attack.

In the void, the chaotic beasts split into ten groups, taking turns charging, and clusters of frenzied chaotic flames swept towards the warship. These chaotic flames could easily travel millions of kilometers, their speed approaching the speed of light, making it almost impossible for the warship to dodge.

Once enveloped by the chaotic flames, the spaceship, like a sand sculpture splashed by ocean waves, suddenly disintegrated, leaving only a few fragments such as the main beam and keel, still pitted and uneven.

However, the warships' close-range attacks also inflicted massive damage on the Chaos Beast. The warships' attacks were not only swift but also dense, covering the entire area and leaving no room for escape.

Chaos Beasts continued to be injured and subsequently targeted by more warships; however, as Saint-level life forms, Chaos Beasts possessed considerable health. The warships' attacks were mostly at a depth of several thousand kilometers, which was somewhat insufficient against Chaos Beasts with a size of 100,000 kilometers.

But warships are utterly fragile in the face of the Chaos Beast. Warships are constantly engulfed by the Chaos Beast's flames or shattered by a single slap. Even a mere touch is enough to bring them to destruction.

It takes many attacks from a warship to seriously injure a Chaos Beast; however, a Chaos Beast attacks a warship silently, one attack at a time.

However, further back, 30,000 large warships were leisurely launching their attack. They hindered the Chaos Beasts' attacks, disrupted their formation, and threw off their attack sequence.

In particular, the "Temple" warship launched a massive data deletion attack with ferocious power, constantly feeding the leading Chaos Beasts and creating opportunities for the destroyers on the front lines.

Chaos beasts attempted to attack the fleet's core but were thwarted by various means. However, some Chaos beasts still managed to break through the blockade and take away several capital warships.

This frantic battle was measured in seconds. A minute passed in the blink of an eye.

A minute is a short time, yet the total number of spaceships lost by the Ascending Dragon Palace exceeded six thousand. Almost all the Chaos Beasts were attacked, experiencing the "fiery taste" of technology, with more than a dozen Chaos Beasts severely injured and three killed.

The three dead Chaos Beasts were finally brought to their deaths by the intervention of the Goddess of Nature, who completely crushed the severely injured Chaos Beasts.

To kill a Saint-level life form, one needs a cultivator of the same level. The fleet and current technology are insufficient.

The number of warships lost exceeded expectations, and in addition to their high health, the Chaos Beasts also possessed unexpectedly powerful regenerative abilities, indicating a precarious situation.

The immense pressure caused Chu Fei to frown. At the current rate of attrition, the Chaos Beast would only need to suffer around 200 casualties to completely wipe out the entire fleet.

Seeing yet another large warship destroyed by the Chaos Beast, Chu Fei took a deep breath and made a decision. He issued his will within the joint domain: "Allocate 7 warships to my direct control. I'll go and test these Chaos Beasts!"

Faced with Chu Fei's risky decision, Jin Tierong hesitated for a moment and said, "Be careful."

At this moment, Jin Tierong didn't tell Chu Fei to calm down or try to dissuade him. Instead, he immediately allocated seven large warships for Chu Fei to control. The current situation was indeed not good.

Chu Fei's metaverse domain is directly connected to the warship's computer, and at the same time, Chu Fei's metaverse domain is also connected to the entire combat system and is under the command of Jin Tierong.

Chu Fei completed basic control and signal docking in just 0.2 seconds, then jumped out of the warship and headed straight to the front line where the battle was most intense.

The cosmic brain directly controlled the computer and immediately locked onto an injured Chaos Beast.

The moment Chu Fei locked onto it, the Chaos Beast activated its "Stomp" skill. Although the surrounding space was already chaotic, this skill still disrupted the void, rendering Chu Fei's lock ineffective.

Chu Fei instantly came up with a solution – he could attack even without locking on. In sniping, there are terms like "quick-scoping" and "blind-scoping." Chu Fei was using a similar technique.

They roughly calculated the location of the Chaos Beast and attacked according to the coordinates they had calculated, without caring about the "actual" location of the Chaos Beast.

Under Chu Fei's control, the seven large warships launched 42 concentrated attacks in just three seconds, including quantum wave pulses, extreme ultraviolet lasers, and even big data deletion.

Of the 42 attacks, 27 hit the target, and the accuracy is rapidly improving.

Chu Fei quickly deciphered the mechanism by which the Chaos Divine Beast unlocked its lock—it affected space and time. It wasn't some kind of time reversal; it was simply that the unevenness of spacetime caused fluctuations in time. These fluctuations were very weak and had no pattern.

Fortunately, whether it's spatial or temporal fluctuations, the end result is always the movement of the figure. But this movement isn't significant, perhaps deviating by tens of thousands of kilometers—just about one body length.

The Chaos Beast is very large, so a calculation error of several thousand kilometers is perfectly acceptable.

After observing for a while, Chu Fei grasped the basic pattern. Three seconds later, Chu Fei's "blind shot" accuracy reached 80%!
After receiving Chu Fei's data and experience, the fleet began to deduce the situation, and subsequently, the accuracy of the entire fleet's attacks began to improve rapidly.

In an instant, the frequency of attacks on the Chaos Beasts increased tenfold. Every second, each Chaos Beast was attacked thousands of times, and in some cases, tens of thousands of times.

Although the Chaos Beast has fast reaction, strong defense, thick health bar, and fast recovery, the feeling of being beaten up is still unpleasant, and with so many attacks, its recovery is starting to fall behind.

The chaotic beast roared, becoming visibly enraged, causing even more warships to be destroyed.

Both sides entered a phase of attrition. The damage from the Chaos Beast began to increase dramatically, and the number of warships that could be damaged also increased rapidly.

But just over twenty seconds later, the Chaos Beast's attacks began to weaken. The number of warships lost was still increasing, but the rate of increase began to slow. The situation began to improve little by little, albeit with great difficulty.

During the battle, a chaotic divine beast was hit by hundreds of concentrated attacks at the same time, and then the goddess of nature seized its fate by the neck.

"Boom..." Lightning flashed in the void, and another chaotic divine beast died completely, its intelligence erased by the goddess of nature.

Four Chaos Beasts died in succession, and the attack frequency from the Ascending Dragon Palace increased too much, causing one of the Chaos Beasts to undergo an unexpected change... it ran away!
Once the first one appeared, a second one followed, and then a whole group of Chaos Beasts; in just a few breaths, before the fleet could adjust its strategy, all the Chaos Beasts in battle panicked and retreated, their formations scattered.

"What's going on?" Chu Fei asked.

No one answered, and everyone was a little confused.

Jin Tierong seized the opportunity and ordered his fleet to launch a preemptive attack and pursuit, allowing them to slightly disrupt the formation or relax their defenses in order to achieve greater speed.

Three minutes later, the battle was completely over.

In just 7 minutes, the Rising Dragon Palace suffered the loss of approximately 20,000 warships and more than a million casualties; 28 Chaos Beasts were killed—24 of which were captured during the pursuit!

No chaotic divine beasts were captured alive.

The Ascending Dragon Palace has no way to seal or imprison the Chaos Beast. As for leaving a backdoor or using memetic control, the conditions for doing so are not currently available. The only option is to annihilate it. Moreover, annihilation requires the intervention of the Goddess of Nature.

The battle ended, leaving the surrounding 30 million kilometers of void in ruins. The spatial fluctuations caused by the vacuum energy bombs and the Chaos Beasts were recovering, and endless debris was churning, all of it warship wreckage.

The remains of the Chaos Beast were carefully recovered.

In the void, a large number of surviving crew members were still rolling and struggling, most of them seriously injured, and very few with minor injuries.

Further away, a chaotic beast was galloping wildly. The rampaging chaotic beast shattered the void, making it difficult for the fleet to pursue.

At this point, everyone in the Ascending Dragon Palace finally understood: these Chaos Beasts were terrified! After all, they were beasts, not humans, and moreover, they had been modified.

Previously, the Ascending Dragon Palace, based on its own combat experience, deduced that the Chaos Beasts were excessively powerful. But now, upon reflection, they suddenly realized that these Chaos Beasts had significant problems.

Although these chaotic divine beasts possessed bodies that reached the "Saint level," their souls, wills, and intelligence were far from sufficient. When faced with fierce battles, their instinct for fear took over!
The fearless fighting on the side of the Ascending Dragon Palace terrified the Chaos Beasts.

This situation made Chu Fei mutter to himself, "As expected, humans are the most warlike race!"
It's a pity that these chaotic divine beasts took five lackeys with them before they left! They had previously told the Heavenly Emperor they had prepared a 'resting room' for him, but it seems they won't need it now.

Then Chu Fei looked into the distant void. More than 20 million kilometers away, several continents had been hit multiple times by laser beams straying from the battlefield. Each laser beam brought unimaginable disaster to the ground.

A laser beam left a "brand" on the ground that was one kilometer wide and more than three thousand kilometers long. The rocks within the "brand" were directly evaporated, leaving behind a blazing, bottomless abyss. I wonder if a lava hell will be born in the future, giving rise to a new myth of hell.

Although the attacks from the Rising Dragon Palace are insignificant to Saint-level beings, they already possess destructive power for the basic material world.

After observing the void for a while, Chu Fei returned to the fleet and began discussing the fleet's arrangements and direction with Jin Tierong, summarizing the Chaos Beasts' attack situation, and formulating a new battle plan.

Although the head-on clash with the Chaos Beast resulted in heavy losses, victory was ultimately achieved. This victory boosted the morale of the entire fleet. Quite a few were even discussing whether to stay.

Unfortunately, Jin Tierong persisted in his escape. The chaos in Changqing Heaven was only temporary, and the five saints had only temporarily fallen from their saintly positions; they would likely recover soon.

Once those sages recover, they will certainly not let the Ascending Dragon Palace, which stirred up trouble, off the hook. Not to mention, the Ascending Dragon Palace obtained the complete "Heavenly Book" and revealed too many things that would make even the sages envious. There is only one outcome for those left behind—even death is a luxury!

The higher-ups are discussing how the various large and small spaceships in the void, along with a large number of uninjured cultivators and ordinary people, are "salvaging" the team members and trying to salvage any salvageable parts.

Next, we will face a great migration of tens of thousands of light-years, with countless dangers along the way. The more spare parts we have, the better.

Half a day later, the fleet set sail again, speeding towards the edge of Changqing Sky.

Everyone remained on high alert throughout the journey. Chu Fei had no time to discuss cultivation or combat with the Goddess of Nature; he was busy summarizing his experience fighting the Chaos Beast to prepare for a second battle and prevent the Chaos Beast from returning.

Fortunately, the journey was safe and sound. After two and a half years of rapid sailing, the fleet finally arrived safely at the edge of Changqingtian and found the location where the Chaos Beast entered Changqingtian.

Under normal circumstances, the boundary (crystal wall) of the Evergreen Sky cannot be approached from the inside. Approaching from the inside, one can get infinitely closer, but never reach it. It can only be broken from the outside. This is the crystal wall.

Fortunately, the traces left by the Chaos Divine Beast are still there. In fact, the Chaos Divine Beast also needed to pass through this location to leave Changqingtian. The traces here were left intentionally by the Chaos Divine Beast.

Chu Fei looked at the remaining traces on the crystal wall, where a vortex had formed, somewhat resembling a black hole. Of course, it only looked like one; the data and other aspects were completely different. It should be said that this was deliberately left behind by the Chaos Divine Beast.

After a brief reconnaissance, and drawing on the experience the Ascending Dragon Palace had accumulated in the Azure Lotus World, the fleet quickly found a way to break through.

With the addition of some vacuum energy bombs, quantum wave pulses, and dimensional reduction technology, the crystal wall was finally broken, and a gap was opened in the void that was hundreds of millions of kilometers long and more than three million kilometers wide.

During this process, Changqingtian's Heavenly Dao naturally reacted, but it was half-dead, emitting a weak and feeble lightning bolt, which was unable to even break through the spaceship's basic defenses.

The passage is now fully open.

"That's it?" The goddess of nature looked at the scene before her, somewhat incredulous. "It feels so easy."

Chu Fei explained from the side, "It looks easy, but we can't even calculate how much preparation we did behind the scenes."

We have explored the world of the Azure Lotus before, so we have accumulated a lot of experience and are not completely ignorant about the crystal walls;
We created a black hole, which disrupted the Heavenly Dao of Changqingtian, causing it to temporarily collapse.

We also found the path through which the Chaos Beast entered Changqingtian, thus creating a semi-finished passage.

In addition, our Yanhuang civilization has many branches in the outer battlefields, such as the Temple of War God and the Temple of Subduing Demons. These branches bring a lot of basic data about the outer battlefields, so we can search for the world behind the rifts in a targeted way and determine where our destination is.

Therefore, what the seniors consider simple is only what appears to be simple.

The Goddess of Nature nodded slightly, her tone filled with unspoken emotion: "The first time I entered the outer battlefield, I used the Chaos Beast to disrupt the heavens and earth. This is my second time entering the outer battlefield, and I still am not relying on my own power."

In truth, even with my current abilities, I still cannot leave Changqingtian on my own. To leave the Great Thousand World, one must, in principle, possess the foundation of a Saint who has severed the Three Corpses.

Chu Fei nodded. This is easy to understand. Just like entering the inner world from the outer world, in principle, one must reach a cultivation level of 16.0—without external assistance, reaching 16.0 does not necessarily guarantee entry into the inner world, but not reaching 16.0 definitely prevents entry.

However, later the Yanhuang civilization established a hyperdimensional channel, so everyone could freely travel between the inner world and the outer world.

The fleet restarted and smoothly passed through the crystal wall, entering the vast inner world, which is what people often call the extraterritorial battlefield.

After passing through the crystal wall, the void... remained pitch black, perhaps even darker.

In the Evergreen Sky, one can still see sparse starlight, which are the "suns" on the continents and the continents they illuminate.

But now, all that can be seen are a handful of stars, barely perceptible.

However, darkness does not mean nothingness.

Looking back, he knew there was a vast celestial realm of Changqingtian behind him, but it was completely invisible. There was only a barely perceptible crack behind him that quickly disappeared.

Tiny flashes of lightning flickered within the crack, producing a faint glow. But as the fleet departed, the lightning rapidly diminished. As the crack closed and the fleet sailed away, it gradually became imperceptible.

After watching for a long time, until the traces behind him completely disappeared and the entire Changqingtian was completely hidden, Chu Fei sighed softly, "It feels like everything in the entire inner world is hiding itself! Protecting itself! We just left Changqingtian, but we can't find our way back."

The Goddess of Nature also looked into the void and said softly, "Because the entire inner world, the entire extraterrestrial battlefield, is a super black forest!"

Chu Fei: "That's not right. I remember that before the Chaos Divine Beast appeared, a large number of demon beasts, divine beasts, and cultivators who were not even Great Luo Golden Immortals entered Changqing Heaven."

Goddess of Nature: "The Way of Heaven has a certain degree of independent will, but it is not that intelligent."

The Heavenly Dao will actively accept things that do not pose a threat, which can be understood as consuming them. Almost all the great worlds possess this characteristic. This has also become a means for the strong to explore hidden great worlds.

"I see." (End of Chapter)
