The game is about becoming a god, starting with the rampage of Hua Ye.

At this moment, Glenn's mind was full of question marks. He couldn't figure out that these seemingly unrelated questions were actually one.

But soon, he understood.

This is indeed a problem.

The sage's voice resounded throughout the hall, the booming sound shaking Glenn's eardrums and soul.

"Because I am the master of the universe, a supreme being who is about to enter the end of his life. Venerable Zhutian is at the same level as me, and that crystal is my energy core, the Chaos Crystal. Yours was separated from it."

"Crack!"

A thunderbolt struck Glenn's mind, and he understood; he understood everything.

It turned out to be the case.

It all began with the Sage. It is likely that after becoming the Lord of the Universe, that is, the Venerable of the Void, the Sage came to this universe to continue His path of advancement.

To advance from the Venerable Realm (the Lord of the Universe) to the next realm, the Void Realm (the Ruler of Chaos), one needs to merge and nurture a universe from nothingness, and then elevate the dimension of that universe. Only then can the power generated by this dimensional ascension allow one to enter the next realm.

As the master of the universe born from the main universe, the most appropriate path to advancement is to merge with the newly born derivative universes.

Although this process takes an extremely long time, once the ascension to the Chaos Ruler is completed, its power is simply indescribable.

It's important to understand that while there are countless lower-level universes within a main universe, intermediate universes are not created arbitrarily; they are limited in number.

Their interconnectedness is like that of a large tree: the main universe is the root system and the trunk, followed by thicker branches, which are the higher-level universes. Further branches form the intermediate universes, and finally, the lush foliage represents the lower-level universes.

This shows just how vast this series of universes, with the main universe as its core, truly is.

No wonder the myriad races of the void spent countless years plotting to seize it after learning of the derivative universe.

Even in such a vast system, the number of Chaos Rulers is finite, because there are only so many intermediate-level cosmic entities.

One can imagine what kind of existence a sage would be once he gave birth to a mid-level cosmic entity. I'm afraid all the races in the void would be afraid of him, and even Venerable Candlelight would be nothing but trash in front of him.

Unfortunately, all efforts failed; the void's targeting severed His path.

Once this universe is breached, He will surely die.

But before that, He could have chosen to leave and abandon this path.

Choosing to remain aloof means that while further promotion is no longer an option, at least one's life is guaranteed.

The Sage still chose to stay, because this was not only about the gateway to the main universe, but more importantly, almost all the beings in this universe were born from Him, and He did not want to abandon these beings who were like His children.

But this choice ultimately led to His exhaustion and death. The enormous body before us was His true form. As He lay dying, He chose to turn into a stone statue and seal Himself away here in order to preserve His last bit of strength.

The aged body we saw earlier was merely one of His avatars that had emerged from this place over countless years.

However, there are no more clones now; this is the last one.

Finally, at the moment Glenn arrived here, He chose to abandon His clones and focus all His strength on preserving His last remaining power as a trump card to protect this place.

As for the paths of the myriad races of the void, they are nothing but destruction and devouring.

Advancing to the Venerable Realm involves destroying and devouring a lower-level cosmic entity. Advancing to the Void Realm is similar, except that the entity destroyed and devoured is a mid-level cosmic entity.

This means that the myriad races of the void are inherently enemies of the cosmic system.

One creates, the other destroys; there is no room for reconciliation between them, only slaughter.

With a myriad of thoughts swirling in his mind, Glenn tried his best to absorb this information.

This illuminated a long road for him.

It's just that we're too far apart now.

Thinking of this, Glenn's eyes shone brightly, and he stared solemnly at the stone statue that the sage had transformed into, saying:

"what should I do?"

"By fusing with the crystallized chaos, one becomes the master of the universe, and then ascends to the level of the Chaos Ruler."

Upon hearing this, Glenn was stunned. He pointed to himself in disbelief and asked:

"Become the master of the universe and the ruler of chaos? Me? You're not kidding, are you? By the time I become the master of the universe, it will be too late, no! Even the land will have turned to nothing."

Glenn wasn't crazy. After clearly understanding the life of the sage, he had a complete concept of becoming the ruler of the universe.

Its difficulty is no less than that of destroying the Venerable Candlelight.

Moreover, becoming the ruler of chaos is simply impossible!

Sometimes Glenn would think about it.

This old guy isn't getting senile, is he? He's probably just trying to fool me!

After a final discussion, they abandoned the idea.

Because it's simply not necessary.

However, Glenn had a vague idea, but it was even more of a pipe dream.

But the next moment, the sage put his idea into practice.

"Normally speaking, of course it's impossible, after all, we only have less than a thousand years left. Even the most talented person couldn't take that step."

But things are different now. The reason we had you absorb the Chaos Crystal to advance to the Boundless Realm was for our next plan; otherwise, why would we have waited so long for your arrival?

Upon hearing this, Glenn understood. His expression immediately turned serious, and he looked at the sage, saying each word slowly and deliberately:

"You...you wouldn't...want me to absorb your energy core, would you?!"

The sage remained silent, as if responding to Glenn's conjecture in this way.

Guess? Now it's not a guess anymore. Glenn is 100% certain that this is exactly what the Sage is planning.

But how could that be? You must know that once Glenn absorbs the Sage's energy core, the Sage will instantly turn into a skeleton.

If He loses His energy core, which is the source of His power, how can He survive?

Thinking of this, Glenn involuntarily swallowed. This gift was like giving birth to new parents, but Glenn did not want to accept it.

After a moment's consideration, Glenn declined:

"Your Excellency, I cannot accept such a thing. I cannot agree to it, either morally or ethically."

It's not that he's being pretentious, it's just that this matter is a bit too hard to accept. You have to understand that sages can be considered the ancestors of all living beings in the known universe.

Even if Glenn transmigrated here, his soul is not from this universe, but the source of his physical body is a being from the known universe.

If we round it up like this, it is also a native being of the known universe.

Glenn could not accept the idea that he had to eat his ancestors in order to ascend to the rank of the Lord of the Universe.

He is not a selfish individual like the myriad races of the void, and would certainly not commit such an act of betraying his master and ancestors.

At worst, he can take a trip through the void. With his current abilities, he is confident that he can advance to the level of a universe master within a thousand years.

After all, he was only one step away from taking that step.

Along the way, he had a general idea of ​​what to do.

As long as you are cautious and avoid those extremely powerful individuals, you will surely succeed.

Hearing Glenn's refusal, the sage paused for a moment, then uttered something that sent chills down Glenn's spine.

“Little fellow, do you think I had Pangu give you the Chaos Crystal? And why did I let you use it to restore your body and advance to the Boundless Realm? Even if the Chaos Crystal is separated, my soul imprint remains on it. From now on, you have no other way but to merge with my energy core to advance to the level of the Lord of the Universe.”

Upon hearing this, Glenn's expression changed drastically, and he stared intently at the stone statue, saying:

"Are you plotting against me?"

To Glenn's question, which was tinged with anger, the sage showed no emotion whatsoever, and calmly replied:

"Calculation? Not really, because this is the optimal solution. My life is coming to an end, and after I die, the energy core will condense itself into an unclaimed chaotic crystal."

The myriad races of the void will launch a full-scale attack at that time, and even the Venerable Realm experts will take action, because that is my agreement with them. Otherwise, I would destroy this universe and leave them with nothing.

Let me tell you the truth! Little one, you simply don't have enough time. Even if you can advance to the level of a universe master within a thousand years, it will take a very long time for your energy core to develop. This is the destiny of all living beings, and no one can escape it.

When that time comes, this universe will be reduced to ruins, and your confidantes will either perish or become slaves to others.

So, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about them. Since I'm going to die sooner or later anyway, it's better to let you have a good life than to let those scumbags have it.

This makes me feel more valued. If you can successfully advance to the Chaos Overlord, it will be my honor, after all, that is my lifelong pursuit.

Having said this, the wise man said no more, leaving everything to Glenn to decide for himself.

No matter what choice he makes, it's all predetermined.

But Glenn could no longer allow his own morality and ethics to bind him. Other things were fine, but seeing Keisha and the others become someone else's slaves was worse than death for him.

With things having come to this point, Glenn had no other choice but to agree to the sage's plan.

He absolutely cannot allow himself to be cuckolded, not even for a moment.

He has always been a selfish person.

"Okay, I promise you!"
