Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3887 - 3906: Sea of Chaos

The assertion of the man with silver eyes was discussed by Lin Chen and the others, reaching a similar conclusion.

Four words: sitting in a well, watching the sky.

Leaving aside other matters, the space jumping technique of the man with silver eyes, or even those Purifiers, is much more formidable than Lin Chen and the others’ star sky jump.

What’s more, for Lin Chen and the others to perform a star sky jump, they must rely on the Star Chart Spirit, while the space jumping technique displayed by the man with silver eyes is clearly based on some special technique rather than divine power.

Purifiers are artificial creations; their ability to swiftly execute this technique explains a lot.

Lin Chen asked, "Senior, what is the actual nature of the universe we know, and what is beyond it?"

The man with silver eyes replied calmly, "Once you go there, you’ll naturally know."

Seeing the man with silver eyes unwilling to elaborate, Lin Chen refrained from asking further, mainly worried that probing too much might offend him, which would be courting trouble.

Since he said "once you go there," it’s better to wait until they reach there to find out.

At least that statement confirmed he wouldn’t be eliminating our group for the time being.

The man with silver eyes again opened a Black Hole Gate, and without needing him to speak, Lin Chen and the others understood and stepped directly inside.

After several times, Lin Chen confirmed that the space jumping distance of the Black Hole Gate wasn’t infinitely far; it also had a distance limit.

Clearly, the place where the man with silver eyes intended to take them was far from here, exceeding the maximum transmission distance of the Black Hole Gate.

Lin Chen silently counted in his mind, and by the eighth time, he suddenly noticed a change in the scenery of the starry sky.

The starry sky was no longer deep blue and profound but shrouded in gray mist.

Lin Chen’s pupils contracted; wasn’t this mist similar to the gray misty zone left behind by Purifiers after annihilating a planet?

This time, the man with silver eyes didn’t open another Black Hole Gate but stood with his hands behind his back in the void.

"Can you see it? This is the boundary of the universe in your eyes..."

The boundary of the universe!

Lin Chen and the others looked around and found that the front was completely shrouded in gray mist, and the further back, the thicker the mist became.

The gray mist was like a wall, blocking their path, and due to visibility, they couldn’t see further nor confirm how wide this gray mist wall was.

"The gray mist zone... is it an isolation zone?"

Lin Chen imagined and tentatively asked, "Does it separate this place from the outside world?"

The man with silver eyes nodded, "Yes, as long as your space-moving speed is fast enough, you will find that whichever direction you run towards, you will ultimately encounter the same scenery."

Lin Chen’s eyes suddenly widened, "The universe we speak of, is it a spherical space enclosed by a Chaos Region?"

Only a spherical space could match the current situation and the explanation of the man with silver eyes.

"Yes."

The man with silver eyes seemed pleased to see the shocked expressions of the people, "You call it the universe, but we call it the Lost Ball."

Lin Chen couldn’t help but ask, "Then in what form does this Lost Ball exist, I mean, outside of this sphere?"

The man with silver eyes replied, "The Lost Ball exists in the Sea of Chaos. If we compare the Sea of Chaos to a pond, then the Lost Ball is a small ball scattered in the pond due to some special reason."

"Though the Sea of Chaos is chaotic, the Lost Ball, over the long passage of time, forms various life forms. They live in the Lost Ball; if not many, there’s no impact on the Lost Ball, but if numerous, they influence the Lost Ball."

"The changes in the Lost Ball, in turn, affect the Sea of Chaos. So to prevent the Sea of Chaos from being influenced, we find ways to clear the changes inside the Lost Ball, returning it to a chaotic state."

The people were stupefied, feeling their minds were blown away.

The boundless universe in their eyes is but a small ball floating in a pond in others’ eyes?

"Does Senior mean there isn’t just one Lost Ball?"

"Yes."

The man with silver eyes smiled, "Do you realize your insignificance now?"

Lin Chen nodded frankly, "Yes, Senior, what you said is truly shocking for us. Then, Senior, or your kin, where do you live?"

The man with silver eyes replied, "We naturally live on the edge of the Sea of Chaos. If the Sea of Chaos undergoes change, it would bring great disaster to us, so we must maintain the state of the Sea of Chaos."

"We send Purifiers to clear the Lost Ball not to conquer you or plunder you, but in a way, it’s for our self-preservation."

Lin Chen was left speechless, feeling his mind was inadequate and lacking imagination.

How vast is the universe?

And how vast is this Sea of Chaos?

The man with silver eyes and the others living in the Sea of Chaos, how vast should their world be?

The people understood the implication of the man with silver eyes, essentially meaning that the more life forms in the Lost Ball, the more they would affect the Sea of Chaos, endangering the world of the man with silver eyes.

For the safety of their world, they must eliminate the life forms in the Lost Ball, ensuring these Lost Balls are as chaotic as possible to maintain the stability of the Sea of Chaos.

In a different perspective, his words are like bacteria growing on a body surface, making a person uncomfortable. Using soap or shower gel to wash kills the bacteria on the body, making a person feel comfortable.

If applied to a planet, the life forms on the planet are like growing bacteria, causing various destructions and disrupting the balance of the planet’s environment. A planet that loses balance eventually experiences disasters that eradicate all life forms, returning everything to the starting point!

Lin Chen felt heavy-hearted, his group deemed harmful bacteria.

According to this explanation, their clearing of life in the Lost Ball is inevitable, something that cannot be changed.

Does this mean the Heavenly Demon Clan or the Heavenly God Clan will ultimately be completely exterminated?

Lin Chen thought further; the changes they speak of are surely not measured in one or two years but possibly over a thousand, ten thousand, or even billions of years as a unit of observed change.

If he could find a way to delay their cleansing of the Lost Ball where their group resides, he might gain a significant amount of time.

He was no Saint, with limited ability, unable to protect everyone, but could he at least protect those he cared about?
