Chapter 412 169: Overlord Civilization, Land of Rules

The Daluo Star System, the Central Empire...

From the Nether Race True God, Chen Yu couldn't learn everything, but he'd managed to get a glimpse.

Those two places were even more terrifying than the Human Race of the Celestial River Star System.

But before this, he had never heard anything about them.

Today was the first time, and it seemed the Firmament Emperor was also involved somehow.

The great war five or six hundred years ago... that timeline seemed to match when the Great Emperor disappeared.

'Could it be that the Great Emperor was defeated and fell during that war?'

One thought after another flashed through Chen Yu's mind. He looked at Feng Miaotian and couldn't help but ask:

"Senior, what are the Daluo Star System and the Central Empire?"

Feng Miaotian's gaze drifted into the depths of the void as she said coolly, "A very distant place."

Chen Yu was speechless.

'Duh, I know it's distant.'

"You might be able to go once you reach the True God level," Feng Miaotian said, looking at Chen Yu.

"Only after reaching the True God level..."

Hearing Feng Miaotian's words, Chen Yu fell into deep thought.

And so, these two places had thoroughly piqued his curiosity.

"In those two star systems, the Human Race is at the absolute peak, the undisputed hegemon that rules them," Feng Miaotian explained.

"!!!!"

Hearing Feng Miaotian speak, Chen Yu's heart shook.

Ruling an entire star system, an absolutely dominant position!!

That sentence alone was enough to prove the strength of the Human Race in those two star systems.

'Just how much power would that require?'

Even when the Firmament Emperor was around, the Human Race of the Celestial River Star System was nowhere near that powerful.

How many Alien Races exist in a single star system?

And within one Alien Race, how many True God Level beings are there?

How many True God Level venerables are in a single star system?

Even now, Chen Yu had no idea how many Alien Race True God Venerables there were in the Celestial River Star System.

He could only make a rough estimate.

At least a few hundred, and at most, over a thousand!

Take the Human Race of the Celestial River Star System, for example. On the surface, almost every planet in the nine realms of the Human Race had one or two True Gods stationed there.

That was already ten to twenty of them, and that's not even counting the hidden True Gods.

There had to be at least twenty to thirty, maybe even more.

But the Human Race of the Celestial River Star System was not a top-tier race within the system.

They were only considered a high-ranking race.

There were at least five or six Alien Races stronger than the humans of the Celestial River Star System, perhaps even more.

To rule an entire star system and become its undisputed hegemon...

Chen Yu didn't dare to imagine just how frighteningly powerful the Daluo Star System and the Central Empire must be.

"Senior, you must have been to these two places, right?" Chen Yu asked Feng Miaotian curiously.

Feng Miaotian nodded. "Yes, a few times."

"Then what's the difference between the Human Race in those star systems and us?" Chen Yu asked.

"There's no difference in appearance, of course. It's just that their civilizations are incredibly powerful. Not only do they dominate their own star systems, but they've also turned several surrounding star systems into their colonies."

Feng Miaotian said coolly.

"!!!"

"They're that terrifying?" Chen Yu's eyes widened as he stared at Feng Miaotian in disbelief.

Not only ruling their own star systems but also colonizing the surrounding ones.

'Damn, their strength is just absurd!'

"The universe is vast. The power of the Human Race in some star systems is beyond your imagination," Feng Miaotian said.

"Then the humans in those two star systems must be invincible throughout the universe, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"The humans of those two star systems are top-tier in the universe, that's true. However, I wouldn't go so far as to call them invincible."

Feng Miaotian said coolly.

'There are even stronger ones?!'

Chen Yu's heart trembled.

"Don't overthink it. You'll gradually come to know these things in the future," Feng Miaotian said, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded lightly.

From what he'd heard today, he had gained a much clearer understanding of how terrifying the cosmos could be.

The universe is vast, and True Gods roam freely!

But becoming a True God is only the first step toward becoming a supreme being; it's not invincibility!

There are Nine Tiers of the True God realm, and the gap between each tier is enormous.

"Senior, do you think the Great Emperor might have fallen in a battle against the supreme leaders of those two star systems?"

Chen Yu asked, looking at Feng Miaotian.

Feng Miaotian gazed into the depths of the Outer Domain's void and pondered for a long time before finally speaking. "It's possible, but you can't completely trust hearsay."

Chen Yu nodded.

Of course, he wouldn't completely believe something like a rumor.

Some rumors could be a world away from reality.

"You, boy, how did your physical body improve so much?" Feng Miaotian asked curiously, her beautiful eyes fixed on Chen Yu.

"..."

"Never mind. Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't press the issue. But don't get arrogant. The outer regions of the Outer Domain battlefield are not a place where you're invincible. You still need to be very careful."

Chen Yu nodded. "Don't worry, Senior. I'll be careful."

"How far off do you feel you are from breaking through to the True God level?" Feng Miaotian asked.

"I don't think I'm too far off. I've already comprehended the prototype of a Law. What I'm lacking now is an accumulation of energy. Once I have enough energy and the Law fully manifests, I should be able to make a push for the True God level," Chen Yu said slowly.

Feng Miaotian nodded, considered it for a moment, and looked at him. "I happen to know a place that might be able to help you."

"??"

Hearing this, Chen Yu looked at Feng Miaotian curiously. "What place?"

"A place where Cosmic Divine Medicine is born," Feng Miaotian said.

"!!!"

Chen Yu's heart shook, and he stared at Feng Miaotian in disbelief.

A place where Cosmic Divine Medicine is born!!!

"Senior, you're not joking, are you?" Chen Yu asked, looking at Feng Miaotian with some disbelief.

Feng Miaotian rolled her eyes at him. "Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Then why didn't you tell your disciple?" Chen Yu couldn't help but ask.

"He isn't suited for this Divine Medicine. Consuming Cosmic Divine Medicine depends on one's talent and meeting certain thresholds. You can't just eat any Cosmic Divine Medicine you find."

Feng Miaotian said coolly.

"Of course, there's just a high probability. Whether the Cosmic Divine Medicine you need actually exists there will depend on your own fortune," Feng Miaotian added.

Hearing this, Chen Yu was still tempted.

Cosmic Divine Medicine... the temptation was truly staggering.

Even if its existence wasn't guaranteed, if news of this place got out, countless beings would likely flock to it.

The appeal of Cosmic Divine Medicine was, without a doubt, undeniable!

"Senior, where is this place?" Chen Yu asked.

"The place is quite far from here. I've made a map. You can follow the route on it."

As she spoke, Feng Miaotian took out a map and handed it to him.

Chen Yu glanced at it. The map was very crude, showing only a single, simple route with a red circle marking the destination.

"It's a place with special rules. True Gods will be suppressed upon entry, so you can only explore it on your own," Feng Miaotian said, looking at Chen Yu.

"Thank you, Senior." Chen Yu came back to his senses and bowed in salute.

"Alright, no need to be so polite. If you break through to the True God level, you'll be another top-tier combatant for our Human Race," Feng Miaotian said.

"Next time, try not to cause such a huge commotion. I'm leaving now." After speaking, Feng Miaotian's figure flickered and vanished.
