Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree

Chapter 541 - 512: Cyan Yang Star System, No Trespassing for Outsiders!

"Vast Star Sea!"

"Boundless Universe!"

"I truly anticipate the scenes to come!"

Gu Qingyang gazed towards various parts of the Cyan Yang Divine Court. Now that the army is consolidated, it is evidently about to begin its march to conquer the starry sky.

Over thirty thousand star systems seem numerous, but in the grand expanse of the starry sky, it’s just a mere fraction.

So far.

Gu Qingyang was unaware of just how immense the starry sky is.

However.

Even if a tenth-level expert attacks with all their might, their extreme limit could only destroy most of a star system, whereas the ability to annihilate an entire star system would likely require at least an eleventh-level power.

"A Unity Realm expert harmonizes with the Heavenly Dao of the cosmic starry sky. The vaster the starry sky, the stronger the Unity Realm expert’s power.

Beings at this level truly evoke awe!"

Gu Qingyang thought of a seventeenth-level Unity Realm expert; such an existence could likely obliterate over thirty thousand star systems with a single thought.

However.

Such a level of power is beyond his current capabilities to contend with.

Then.

Gu Qingyang looked towards a particular direction of the Immortal Extinction State.

As the heavens ascended to the second level, he could perceive the existence of the Path to Immortality more clearly.

It is entirely situated within the Immortal Extinction State, yet an independent dimensional space, and from the Path to Immortality, Gu Qingyang could sense that it housed many extremely terrifying presences.

These presences.

Are the remnants of those powerful beings who once fell there during ancient battles.

Finally.

Gu Qingyang’s gaze lingered in the Chaos Void.

Initially, when Gu Qingyang entered the Chaos Void with his Dharma Body, he only sensed the terrifying power within it, where stepping in would ensure immediate obliteration.

But now.

Gu Qingyang could faintly feel that deep within the Chaos Void, there seemed to be an entirely different aura.

However.

With his current strength, there was no way to fully explore the depths of the Chaos Void.

To truly probe it, either his realm had to advance further, or the heavens had to ascend once more.

After all, each heavenly ascension deepened Gu Qingyang’s control over the heavens.

Second-tier heavens.

The limit of Heavenly Dao Power is the completion of the tenth level.

Third-tier Heavenly Dao corresponds to an eleventh-level expert.

Fourth-tier Heavenly Dao equates to the twelfth level.

By such estimation.

Nine-tier heavens’ Heavenly Dao corresponds to seventeenth-level experts.

"Unity Realm experts emphasize Body and Dao Integration with the cosmos, implying that the cosmic tier is approximately at an eighth to ninth-level standard, most likely the ninth level.

Someday, if the Cyan Yang Divine Realm ascends to the ninth level, I will equate to a Unity Realm expert!"

Gu Qingyang’s mind subtly shifted.

This implies that even without breakthrough in cultivation, as long as the Cyan Yang Divine Realm is nurtured, he would be equivalent to a Unity Realm expert within the Cyan Yang Divine Realm.

But the problem is.

Truly nurturing a domain to the ninth tier is a daunting endeavor.

Third-tier heavens require strength equivalent to many tenth-level experts.

To elevate to the ninth tier, the necessary resources are unimaginably vast.

Nonetheless, regardless of the challenges, Gu Qingyang now has a few clear objectives.

First is to expand faith!

Second is to gather Heavenly Dao Origin!

Third is to cultivate the Cyan Yang Divine Realm!

The first two are accumulation, and the final is the true foundation of oneself.

He has been intricately tied to the Cyan Yang Divine Realm since Body and Dao Integration began; their glory and decline are mutually dependent.

Having deeply pondered the depths of the Chaos Void, Gu Qingyang slowly retracted his gaze.

Now is not the time to explore the truth of the Chaos Void, nor the Path to Immortality, which is beyond his current ability to probe.

When his strength is eventually sufficient, all secrets will naturally be fully revealed.

Then.

Gu Qingyang once again stepped into the Starry Celestial River.

With second-tier heavenly ascension.

Gu Qingyang found that the scope of his exploration within the Starry Celestial River was greatly increased.

Compared to before the ascension, the range he could now investigate had expanded tenfold.

Under the perception of his Divine Thought.

Stars were pierced through by Gu Qingyang.

As the only second-level heavens known within the current starry sky, Gu Qingyang felt no hesitation.

Star after star was penetrated, almost all were barren worlds, showing no traces of life.

In these rule-poor worlds, Heavenly Dao Origin was scarce.

However.

Every endeavor accumulates from small beginnings.

Even the tiniest morsel of meat is worthy.

Even if each star offered only a few hundred Heavenly Dao Origin, Gu Qingyang pursued them with gusto.

Ultimately, these barren worlds lacking life were devoid of necessity, as their scant Rule Power suggests that even over a billion years, the chance for life evolution remains uncertain.

Rather than leaving them to waste, it’s better to transform them into self-supporting sustenance.

...

While Gu Qingyang was devouring and annihilating stars, a group of cultivators had already entered the Cyan Yang star system.

However.

As they entered the Cyan Yang star system, they were immediately intercepted by several battleships.

"Cyan Yang star system, outsiders must stop!"

A mechanical, icy voice emanated from the battleships, as their weapons simultaneously targeted these outsiders, a dangerous aura spreading, as if at any moment, an apocalyptic attack could erupt.

"These are the battleships of the Divine Eye Empire!"

One person’s expression changed.

They were all too familiar with the Divine Eye Empire’s battleships.

However.

The Divine Eye Empire has since been annihilated.

The current battleships likely don’t belong to the Divine Eye Empire, leading to only one conclusion: the Cyan Yang Divine Court has inherited the technological civilization of the Divine Eye Empire.

Thinking of this.

The cultivators present felt a heavy sinking in their hearts.

The Cyan Yang Divine Court’s methods in cultivation civilization were already terrifically formidable, capable of directly eradicating the overlord level Divine Eye Empire.

Furthermore, having absorbed the Divine Eye Empire’s technological methods, their combined strength will only become more terrifying.

At this point.

A cultivator anxiously spoke: "This is the Empress of my Celestial Cyan Dynasty. Today we have come to meet the Cyan Yang Divine Emperor!"

Cyan Yang Divine Emperor!

Naturally, this is Gu Qingyang’s public title.

Upon these words being spoken.

A void was soon torn open.

The visitor was none other than Master Celestial Secret, who guarded the Cyan Yang star system.

The Cyan Yang star system, as the Cyan Yang Divine Court’s stronghold, naturally required powerful guardians, with Master Celestial Secret’s strength being among the top tier of tributes and in addition to having pledged allegiance to Gu Qingyang earlier, earning him the guardianship of this place.

When Master Celestial Secret looked towards the Empress at the forefront, a glint of awe filled his eyes, as he too was seeing such an exceptionally beautiful woman for the first time.

Yet in the next instant, Master Celestial Secret returned to normal, his expression indifferent.

"The visit from the Celestial Cyan Dynasty is indeed welcomed by this humble one, but I ask everyone to wait here first. I shall report this matter to the Divine Court!"
