Da Qin: Conquer all heavens and all realms

The Five Emperors retreated, and the matter of the Milky Way was over.

That earth-shaking battle between Taoism and magic seemed like a grand and distant dream, leaving behind only the devastated galaxy and indelible awe in the hearts of billions of lives.

Ying Zheng's words decided the outcome. With the supreme majesty of "I am the Way of Heaven", he forcibly suppressed the five-colored "Tao" representing the origin of the universe and forced back the five ancient beings that seemed to be the incarnation of the universe.

However, the joy of victory did not cloud Ying Zheng's head.

He knew better than anyone that the Five Emperors had not been defeated, but rather had reached some kind of consensus and voluntarily retreated. Their words before leaving were like a sharp thorn, deeply piercing his heart.

“Beyond the universe, there is a broader stage.”

This sentence, like a thunderclap, echoed repeatedly in Ying Zheng's mind. He had conquered the Earth, unified the heavens, and incorporated the entire Milky Way into the territory of the Qin Dynasty. He thought he had stood at the pinnacle of the world.

But in the end, everything he did might just be a corner on someone else's chessboard, and the "Great Qin" he was proud of might just be a speck of dust in the eyes of a greater being.

For an emperor whose lifelong pursuit was to "conquer the four seas and annex the eight wildernesses," this kind of recognition was an insult and challenge more terrifying than any enemy.

He, Ying Zheng, refuses to accept!

He must find out the truth about the universe! He must know how magnificent the so-called "outside the universe" is, and what kind of dangers it hides!

So, on the third day after the Five Emperors retreated, Ying Zheng made a decision that shocked the entire Qin Empire.

He issued an order, ordering Wang Ben to lead the "Demon-Slaying Army" of the nine heavens and ten earths to guard the border of the Milky Way, switch to comprehensive defense, consolidate the territory, and not allow any losses.

Although Wang Ben had doubts in his heart, the emperor's order was as heavy as a mountain. He obeyed the order and left, but his eyes were full of worry for the emperor.

Ying Zheng himself once again turned his attention to the unknown star region.

This time, he was no longer reckless.

He knew full well that the rules and power levels of the Eternal Universe far surpassed those of the Milky Way. If he forced his way in again like he had done last time, even with the system's protection, he would inevitably pay a heavy price.

He wants to be absolutely sure!

"System, consume 10 million Luck Points to construct the strongest cross-border protection for me and the expeditionary force! At the same time, optimize the 'Void Universe Boat' so that it can adapt to higher-level cosmic laws!"

Ying Zheng’s thoughts echoed in the system.

Ding: Master's command detected. Consume 10 million Luck Points to activate 'Invulnerability' cross-border protection. This protection resists the repulsion and erosion of the fundamental laws of the universe, protecting the souls and bodies of all targeted units.

Ding: Consume an additional 5 million Luck Points to optimize the "Empty Universe Boat" to the law level. Optimization completed...

As the system prompt sounded, a majestic golden light burst out from Ying Zheng, instantly covering ten generals including Bai Qi, Wang Jian, Meng Tian, ​​Xiang Yu, and Han Xin, as well as fifty legion commanders who were already ready to go.

They only felt a warm and vast force enveloping them, as if they were in the chaos at the beginning of the universe. Their own strength, Taoism, and connection with the Milky Way were all perfectly protected and solidified by this force, and there was no risk of being assimilated or torn apart by the outside world.

At the same time, the "Empty Universe Boat" also underwent earth-shaking changes.

Its huge hull forged from star gold began to lose its cold metallic luster, and instead took on a mysterious color that seemed to be interwoven with chaos and the void.

Countless ancient runes emerged on the surface of the ship. These runes were not the characters of the Great Qin, but were more like the traces of the universe. They flowed endlessly, as if breathing and chanting.

The aura of the entire giant ship has become restrained and profound. It is no longer a simple weapon of war, but a Taoist weapon that can travel freely through the heavens and all realms!

Ying Zheng gazed at the brand-new vehicle before him, his eyes gleaming with brilliance. He could sense that this "Void Universe Boat" had not only seen a qualitative leap in defense, speed, and energy levels, but also possessed a certain degree of "law immunity."

In the eternal universe, it will no longer be an out-of-place "alien", but a "disguiser" that can temporarily integrate into and utilize local laws.

"Your Majesty, the boats are ready, and the expeditionary force is ready to go!" Bai Qi stepped forward, his voice like a bell, and his fighting spirit soaring to the sky.

Although he didn't know how dangerous the situation ahead was, as long as His Majesty gave the order, he would fight his way out for His Majesty even if it was a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of swords!

"Wang Jian, Meng Tian, ​​Xiang Yu, Han Xin..."

"I am here!" Twelve of the Qin Dynasty's top deputy commanders and generals responded in unison. The sound waves gathered together and shook the void.

"Fifty legion commanders!"

"We are here!" Fifty legion commanders, their auras as solemn as mountains, knelt on one knee, their eyes gleaming with absolute loyalty and fanaticism. They were the embodiment of the Qin army's spirit, the sharpest blades of the empire!

"Very good!" Ying Zheng stood with his hands behind his back, his dragon robe fluttering in the wind. He glanced at the core warriors who had followed him across countless worlds and spoke slowly, his voice filled with unquestionable determination, "This journey is not to conquer, but to explore! I want to see with my own eyes what the end of this universe truly looks like!"

"Anyone who dares to stand in the way of my great Qin will be killed!"

"If anyone dares to covet the might of my Qin army, kill him!"

"Anyone who dares to insult the dignity of the Great Qin will be killed!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Sixty-three generals roared in unison, and murderous aura reached the sky, as if they wanted to tear the entire starry sky apart!

"Boat in! Go!"

Following Ying Zheng's order, everyone turned into streams of light and poured into the "Empty Universe Boat".

The boat shook, but there was no earth-shattering energy explosion, only a slight distortion of space. The next moment, this Qiankun Dao vessel, which carried all the hopes and ambitions of the Great Qin Empire, disappeared into the Milky Way and once again embarked on the journey to the eternal universe.

This time, thanks to the dual protection of "Invulnerable to All Laws" and "Empty Universe Boat", the cross-border process was extremely smooth.

Ying Zheng and the others never felt the horrific pain of having their souls torn apart and their bodies crushed again. They simply felt their eyes flash before their eyes, and the star map around them completely changed.

A completely different universe appeared before their eyes.

This is the eternal universe!
