My Hair Can Create a Demon Country-Chapter 553 - 539: The Protoform of the Ultimate Universe

Chapter 553: Chapter 539: The Protoform of the Ultimate Universe

In the following days, Fu Qingjun and the young Grand Ancestor Qianxiu wandered across various star rivers together.

Along the way, they set up protective shields, hunting saints in secret without being noticed by outsiders, and gradually collected more Saint’s Rules in their hands.

However, due to the Saint’s Rules being split into more than a dozen parts, they were significantly weakened to a fraction of their original strength. Despite being easier to hunt, the complexity of the task increased exponentially.

Though they were cautious, the disappearance of some saints soon began to stir suspicion among more perceptive saints.

Initially, they assumed these saints were merely wandering the world, which was perfectly reasonable. However, as more and more saints started vanishing, everyone noticed something was gravely amiss.

"It’s only been a year, and we’ve entered the second phase—being suspected. We must act quickly now,"

the young grandmaster continued to speak.

Three more years passed.

For them, this period allowed them to accomplish an overwhelming amount. They could hunt at least one saint per day, and when the distance was close, they could hunt as many as seven in a single attempt.

Each Great Celestial Venerable was increasing their efforts in secret, aware that time was running out.

Soon, strange and doubtful messages began circulating, spreading across various star systems and galaxies.

Even audiences with the Celestial Venerables were evaded with all sorts of excuses. Some of the more radical saints who visited the heavens vanished afterwards, sparking widespread suspicion among all saints.

The truth was exposed much faster than anyone had anticipated.

This clearly indicated that there were young saints in this era with enough talent to defy the natural order.

A few months later, in the Ji Taichu Dynasty’s star system during the Seventh Era in the north, young saints had already begun covertly hunting other saints, searching for the hidden secrets of the illustrious Celestial Venerables.

"Indeed! Just as I expected!!"

On this day, a voice echoed across several life-bearing planets nearby,

"A new power arises in the Saint’s Rules. No wonder the Celestial Venerables keep it hidden. They don’t even bother with the frontlines. What truly concerns their eternal existence is something like this!"

This saint was named Beifeng, formerly a Godslayer who perished in a previous era, with monstrous talent beyond measure.

Renowned for surpassing all the ancient Celestial Venerables in aptitude, but never securing a position, he attempted to strike at the heavens and was ultimately slain by a Celestial Venerable, meeting his demise.

Nearby Celestial Venerables, upon hearing this, rushed over to attack him.

The entire galaxy shattered, numerous layers of principles blossoming.

"You are not a saint; saints don’t possess such combat power. You are a Celestial Venerable reincarnated." Saint Beifeng laughed aloud, "I see, Celestial Venerables disguising themselves as saints to hunt secretly, deceiving everyone?"

This battle was earth-shattering,

but ultimately, even though he was on the same level, he managed to escape from this Era Celestial Venerable.

Although at the same level, it was an immensely miraculous feat.

This shook the entire universe.

Additionally, Saint Beifeng proclaimed to the world as he fled, spreading the word throughout various star systems: "The Celestial Venerables are ruthless, attempting once again to seize power in the shadows, not wanting future generations of our era to rise, but I am different from them!"

"I declare this to the world: the path of power lies in the Saint’s Rules!"

"Saint’s Rules have an unseen attraction, pulling and coalescing to potentially form a new celestial seat. This constitutes the material domain seat, governing the universe’s elements of wind, fire, thunder, material, quantum..."

"This material seat and the conceptual seat stand side by side, entwined yet separate from each other."

"The universe has wholly elevated its stature, where in the past, a strong individual could at most occupy a single seat. Now, one strong individual can become a yin-yang duality, attesting to both the material and conceptual dual seats simultaneously."

"Moreover, the Celestial Venerables also find it difficult to kill us."

"If our material domain fragment seats are slightly higher, they will find it challenging to easily detect or calculate our positions in the universe!"

"Unless the distance is relatively close, they cannot divine or predict us."

"Hahahaha! You all should understand what to do!"

"Go hunt other saints, grow stronger, and stronger. Once the fragment seat is high enough, they will barely be able to sense us, allowing us to eventually turn the tables and ambush those ancient Celestial Venerables!"

...

This news expanded like a tornado.

"So incredible!"

"The power truly lies with the saints!"

"Hahahaha, we have a chance to rise!"

"It seems another era of groundbreaking change has arrived, where all beings are equal, and everyone has a chance to seize power—depending on who has the stronger means!"

Everyone knew the universe had indeed undergone massive upheaval, transforming into a grand lethal colosseum.

Sixth-tier mortals hunted weaker saints, with the Saint’s Rules being fractured, increasing in number hundreds of times, impressively weakened, making them easier to hunt.

Saints hunted saints, seizing power of the same level.

Celestial Venerables hunted saints to reclaim and reassemble their rules.

"It has begun."

Facing the gale on a desert planet, the young grandmaster exchanged a glance with Fu Qingjun.

The young grandmaster sighed, "Even in the universe, there are such geniuses!"

"Although following the traces, they managed to quickly deduce the truth of the power play. This person might become the leader of the younger generation, leading countless eras and mortals from past and future to rebel against the Celestial Venerables who stand eternally in the river of time."

"Moreover, though they appear to be righteously sharing the opportunity with all beings without reservation, in truth they intend to divert attention, inciting the whole world to rise in rebellion, drowning us in chaos," Qianxiu saw through the other’s intentions instantly.

Fu Qingjun nodded,

Assuming their opponent was exactly like that, following the traces left behind, they directly tracked down the major power disclosed by the other party.

The first person to deduce it was the pioneer of creation from nothing.

As for those who came later, they were one step behind.

However, regarding this Beifeng Saint, Fu Qingjun harbored doubts, musing secretly: "It may not be Beifeng who deduced this; I am almost certain it wasn’t him!"

"Celestial Venerables can indeed perceive anomalies from the current situation and clues, but a saint’s perspective usually cannot see this far."

"Moreover, if I were the first saint to discover the truth of these anomalies, how could I expose myself to attract fire? I would secretly have a powerful and qualified saint ’unintentionally’ become aware of the truth, letting them draw fire, while I develop in secret."

"Beifeng Saint may seem like a leader, but in reality, there’s an orchestrator behind the scenes."

"It’s likely the young hero who saved Celestial Venerable Wen Ce from the shadows, pushing forward a visible figure, and Beifeng might not even know he’s a puppet. Although he’s attracting attention with all beings, he himself is also being used to attract attention."

Simply put, it’s a nesting doll plan.

Fu Qingjun furrowed his brows, pacing back and forth upon hearing this,

"This Beifeng Saint, indeed, has already integrated some seats, making it difficult for ordinary Celestial Venerables to hunt him down. But for me, finding him is simple, since he’s already made his presence known... However, I will not kill him. Who I need to be wary of is the hidden puppet master behind him."

Were it not for his opponent accidentally meddling with his Celestial Venerable Wen Ce, allowing him to detect the hidden presence, he might have directly taken action against them.

It’s a pity, Fu Qingjun already knew there was such a person, and so he would not fall for it.

Fu Qingjun, a master of the art of survival, stood firm. Even with this person in plain sight, he chose not to act, letting them threaten him, perhaps even lead the world’s mortals to resist against the Celestial Venerables.

...

On the other side,

upon a land dripping with blood, Celestial Venerable Wen Ce slaughtered a saint at his feet, wiping his hands, "Indeed, putting that Beifeng Saint in the open to declare his discovery to the world muddied the waters. Saints are all busy hunting each other, allowing me to act more recklessly."

"Furthermore, having him out in the open can also attract potential ancient underhanded forces in the universe, hidden decaying existences of past eras, to see if such forces exist." Celestial Venerable Wen Ce chuckled softly. The previous deductions and abnormalities of the creation rules had finally planted a thorn in his heart. The

reason being, of the four life rules, all had to undergo a transformation once to be complete, leading to the birth of the ultimate universe.

However, the creation rule was the only one showing no signs of movement, making him feel a strong sense of discord.
