Chapter 530: Imparting the Method

"Big Brother?"

"Is it Lord Locke?"

"Or someone else in the Hongmeng Space?"

Linley was puzzled.

He only knew that Death Sovereign was Chief Sovereign Locke's companion, but he did not know how Lord Locke and Death Sovereign addressed each other.

However, judging from the might emanating from Death Sovereign, even though he had already broken free from the shackles of the Magic Universe, he was still far behind Death Sovereign.

"Yes, my lord."

"Don't call me that."

Death Sovereign clearly hesitated for a moment before saying to Linley, "You can call me 'Third Sister' as well."

"Third Sister?"

Linley was puzzled.

Since there was a Third Sister, then naturally there would be an eldest brother and second brother, or perhaps an eldest sister and second sister.

Could it be that the Hongmeng Space consisted of a small group formed by powerful beings who had transcended their respective universes?

For example, he and Chief Sovereign Locke had come from the same universe, so, if nothing unexpected happened, would he be the fourth brother?

Then, would Second Brother be Lord Locke?

If the Sovereigns of the Magic Universe knew that not only Lord Locke, but even Death Sovereign was a powerhouse beyond the Overgod realm, what would they think?

"Follow me."

"All right, Third Sister."

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Linley followed behind Death Sovereign and stepped into the spacetime tunnel.

Very quickly, through the spacetime tunnel, Linley and Death Sovereign arrived directly within the small world created by Hongmeng.

This was the first existence Linley had seen within the Hongmeng Space that was different from the Hongmeng Energy.

Amidst the hazy gray mist, the existence of the small world was like the dawn in the darkness, while the faint light radiating from the osmanthus tree glittered like starlight.

"Hahaha, you're here, Third Sister, Fourth Brother."

Hongmeng rose from the stone table and greeted Linley with a smile.

"Big Brother."

Death Sovereign nodded toward Hongmeng.

"Linley, this is Big Brother Hongmeng. You can call him Big Brother as well. As for me, you can call me Third Sister."

"All right, Big Brother, Third Sister."

Linley understood.

It seemed that Lord Locke was indeed "Second Brother."

After sitting together with Hongmeng and Death Sovereign at the stone table beneath the osmanthus tree, Linley swept his gaze around and only then discovered that not far in front of this small world, there were five chaotic-colored objects, one large and four small.

Although it was only a glance, Linley's mind instantly understood what these things were.

Universes!

These enormous chaotic-colored spheres were universes just like the Magic Universe where he had previously lived.

Likewise, from the auras emanating from these five universes, Linley quickly sensed the aura of the Magic Universe.

Contrary to Linley's expectations, the Magic Universe was actually one of the four universes that were a hundred times smaller than the larger universe.

"Big Brother, is Second Brother Lord Locke?"

Although he had already come to this conclusion, Linley still asked.

"Indeed."

Hongmeng smiled. "Second Brother Locke is the most talented and gifted person I have encountered throughout all these years."

Hearing this, pride also appeared on Death Sovereign's face.

She was Locke's wife, and the two were of one heart and body. Hearing Hongmeng praise him like this naturally made Death Sovereign proud as well.

"Indeed."

Linley also nodded in agreement.

He knew that Chief Sovereign Locke had already completely fused the Laws of Water and the Edict of Fate.

The significance of this was far greater than simply fusing four different Laws' Profound Mysteries.

It was simply because his luck was heaven-defying. The divine clones he possessed happened to correspond to the fundamental Laws of the Magic Universe. Having one more or one fewer would have caused him to miss out on this heaven-defying opportunity.

At the same time, Linley was also extremely grateful to Locke in his heart.

After all, Linley's soul was in the form of a "sword."

This meant that Linley himself had the potential to cultivate the Edict of Destruction.

After completing his four-element soul mutation, Linley had once considered whether he should cultivate the Edict of Destruction and see whether he could become the unprecedented and perhaps never-to-be-surpassed "five-element soul mutator."

If so, Linley might become even stronger within the Magic Universe.

However, he would lose the opportunity to break through and become a Hongmeng lifeform.

Only by becoming a Hongmeng lifeform could one transcend the universe and survive within the Hongmeng Space.

Even if one became stronger within the Magic Universe, surpassed Orloff, and could break through the barrier of the Magic Universe, one still could not survive within the Hongmeng Space.

Ultimately, one would merely be a relatively large fish in a pond, unable to leave the water and soar freely.

If not for Locke telling him about the mysteries of the four elements of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire, and demonstrating the process of Hongmeng Energy evolving Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire for him, Linley probably would never have been able to fuse the Laws of the four elements during his battle with Chief Sovereign of Fate Orloff, and thus fuse the Sovereign power of the four elements into Hongmeng Energy.

"If Lord Locke hadn't reminded me, I would never have been able to reach this realm."

"However..."

At this point, Linley smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Lord Locke once said that I had the potential to grow to his realm, but only after entering the Hongmeng Space did I realize that the gap between Lord Locke and me is simply too great."

This was not something Linley could be blamed for. Before seeing Death Sovereign and Hongmeng, he had thought that he might have already reached the realm of Chief Sovereign Locke.

But after seeing Death Sovereign and Hongmeng, Linley could feel the gap between them.

Lord Locke's strength was definitely no weaker than that of Big Brother Hongmeng and Third Sister Death Sovereign.

"Hahaha, not to mention you. Even I feel that the gap between myself and Second Brother is more than just a little."

Hongmeng laughed.

"Also, Linley, the reason you feel that the gap between your strength and ours is so large right now is because you haven't created your own universe yet."

"Created my own universe?"

Linley looked at Hongmeng, then at the five chaotic universes, one large and four small, in front of him, and shook his head.

As for creating a universe, Linley had seen Chief Sovereign Locke use Hongmeng Energy to evolve spacetime and create a small universe back in the Magic Universe.

Although Linley had now condensed Hongmeng Energy and cultivated a Hongmeng Body and Hongmeng Spirit, he himself had no direction whatsoever when it came to creating a universe.

"Big Brother, I know nothing about this. I don't even have a direction..."

"Hahaha, my method of creating a universe has undergone some improvements after Second Brother modified it, and it has become somewhat more refined."

After saying this, Hongmeng extended his hand, and an osmanthus tree leaf drifted down into his palm. A golden light flashed across the leaf and disappeared.

"Here."

Linley took the leaf and extended his divine sense into it. Very quickly, he was captivated by the mysteries of creating a universe contained within.

"What an exquisite method."

Linley sighed. "Unfortunately, this method requires such precise manipulation of Hongmeng Energy that even I would need to cultivate for a very long time before I could accomplish it."

"Moreover, judging only from the amount of Hongmeng Energy I can currently control within my body, the universe I can create would probably be less than one ten-thousandth the size of the Magic Universe."
