Chapter 495 The First Meeting with the Great Sage of Chaos
"A primordial cosmic ruler, or a Great Sage?"
Chen Yuangan was quite surprised, not expecting that besides the God King Jiuye who appeared in the original work, there were other beings who had successfully possessed the original universe.
Importantly, this person was not a god-king, but merely a Great Sage of Chaos.
"However, the Origin Continent is so vast that it wouldn't be surprising if there were other beings controlling the primordial universe."
After all, there were as many as three thousand original universes, and since the endless cycle of reincarnation, countless beings have been born who have survived the cycle.
If even one of these people has the willpower to break through the Chaos Great Sage level, then seizing control of the primordial universe will be an easy task.
Chen Yuan even felt that, given the vast span of time that the three thousand universes had undergone, even considering the minimum proportion of powerful beings that could be born, there should be quite a few that met the requirements.
In other words, theoretically there should be many powerful beings who control the primordial universe in the Origin Continent, but in reality, apart from the God King Jiuye, no similar beings are mentioned in the original work.
"I don't know if it's because the original author was too lazy to mention it, or if there's some taboo surrounding possessing the original universe, which is why there aren't that many powerful beings who control the original universe." Chen Yuan shook his head.
However, instead of making wild guesses here, it would be better to meet with that Great Sage Wan Yu. Anyway, Irene is in his hands, so I have to go there no matter what.
Before that, he needs to find out the situation over there.
With this in mind, Chen Yuan arrived at the origin space of the virtual universe and summoned Irene.
Although the maid was said to have been captured, it was only her clone that was captured. Furthermore, since she was an intelligent life form and did not have a soul by birth, she was not afraid of soul control methods.
So when she appeared, she didn't seem flustered at all, and respectfully greeted Chen Yuan as usual: "Master."
Seeing that Irene was unaffected, Chen Yuan felt a slight sense of relief and then asked, "Tell me, chapter 39..."
What's the situation with Universe Number 1? Who is that Great Sage with Ten Thousand Feathers?
"OK."
Irene nodded and recounted her journey of pioneering Universe 39.
Things weren't complicated. After arriving in Universe 39, Ireil, as usual, used the guise of a "cosmic merchant" to run the Tower of Primordial Chaos.
Because Chen Yuan had been busy during this time, Irelia's transactions did not involve the original universe, but only with the adventurers of the Cosmic Sea.
At first, her transactions went very smoothly, or rather too smoothly; the local indigenous people's enthusiasm for buying the Supreme Treasure was simply indescribable.
However, as the transaction progressed, Irene felt the time was right and began acquiring life materials, which, for some reason, instantly angered everyone.
"I only learned later that Universe 39 had already been unified, and all races in the Cosmic Sea were ruled by a race called the Feathered Race."
Ireil exclaimed, "And this leader of the Feathered Clan is none other than the Great Sage of Ten Thousand Feathers who captured my clone."
"Therefore, under the influence of the Feathered Clan, this Cosmic Sea knows quite a bit about the Origin Continent; at least they know the basic situation of the nine Great Daos of the Origin World."
"The reason these indigenous people are angry is that they believe my acquisition of life-sustaining materials poses a certain threat to them."
"After all, besides being used to study the Infinite God Body, the most important function of life materials is as materials for the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, which can be used to control the life and death of these people through the power of cause and effect."
"I see." Chen Yuan said with sudden realization, "So it was because of this that you caught the attention of that Great Sage Wan Yu?"
"Yes." Irele nodded, her expression helpless. "I've explained the reason for collecting life materials many times, but those natives simply don't believe me."
"They dispatched a group of True God powerhouses to intercept the Tower of Primordial Chaos, and then reported the matter to the Great Sage Wan Yu, who was in seclusion."
"Before I could break through the encirclement, I was suppressed by the Great Sage Wan Yu who rushed over upon hearing the news."
Fortunately, this Great Sage of Ten Thousand Feathers is reasonable.
At this point, Irene slowly exhaled: "Unfortunately, although he did not doubt my words, he could tell that I was born of intelligent life and was very interested in the master behind me, and wanted to meet you."
"So, that's why you sent that email?" Chen Yuan pondered.
Irene nodded.
After hesitating for a moment, she added, "However, I don't really recommend that you go, Master. Although that Great Sage Wan Yu seems easy to talk to, he is, after all, a Great Sage, and is extremely dangerous."
Chen Yuan understood that what Irene said made a lot of sense.
He is still unsure whether the basic divine power exerted by the controller of the primordial universe in the cosmic sea can exceed the limits of the rules, that is, the level of the master of the genetic universe ten thousand times greater.
Even if the divine power exerted by the opponent's avatar is the same as that of others, with the mastery of the Great Dao and secret techniques, the destructive power of a Great Sage is in no way inferior to that of an Eternal True God in his prime.
Even a small universe of a Void True God can be destroyed by brute force; such power is far beyond his current reach.
Not to mention that, apart from the secret techniques, the opponent's soul and will can unleash their peak power, completely crushing ordinary cosmic sea life.
Although he was quite powerful, he wasn't confident enough to be comparable to an incarnation of a Chaos Great Sage.
But after a moment's hesitation, Chen Yuan decided to meet with the other party.
"Master!" Upon hearing this decision, Irene was immediately shocked and couldn't help but advise, "Master, please reconsider. It's not worth risking your life for a mere clone of mine."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Chen Yuan shook his head. "Besides, even if I were facing a Great Sage, I wouldn't be completely helpless. I can still run away if I want to."
As he spoke, his aura changed. Although he still looked the same, his entire demeanor was completely different.
Irene's deepest feeling was that she could no longer sense her master's soul.
"Master, what method did you use?" she asked, slightly surprised. "What method did you use to hide your soul?"
"Hide? No, no, no, I have no soul left now."
Chen Yuan smiled faintly, and to Irene's surprise, he explained the power of formless transformation that he had mastered after reaching the "Perfection of All Things Realm".
"You mean, through the transformation of the power of all things, you directly transformed into a Soul-Devouring Beast," thus completely eliminating your soul?"
"That's right." Chen Yuan nodded slightly. "Although this change doesn't mean my soul has completely disappeared, it's hidden in the deepest part of my life structure."
"But in that case, if that Great Sage of Ten Thousand Feathers wants to influence me through his soul techniques, he will have to penetrate through layers of defenses."
"That means I have to break through the Heavenly Light Battle Armor, the Primordial Soul, and my physical body's triple defenses in succession."
At this point, he smiled confidently: "In terms of offensive capabilities, I may only be able to wreak havoc at the Void level, but in terms of defensive capabilities—most Eternal Gods are not as good as me."
"Now, my physical body is comparable to an Eternal-level treasure, and my two defensive treasures are at the peak of the Eternal level."
"To break through these triple defenses, he would need to unleash power at the level of a Great Sage, and during that time I can teleport away at any time using optimized space."
Upon hearing this, Irene's eyes lit up: "Master actually has such strength? That certainly makes things much safer."
Then she frowned slightly: "But since the Great Sage Wan Yu was able to possess the primordial universe, his level of will must have reached at least the Chaos level. If the other party launches a will attack—"
"If it's a mental attack, then he can do even less to me," Chen Yuan said calmly.
After years of honing his skills, his mental and physical strength has reached the late stage of the Eternal level, and his intensity is almost on par with the Chaos level. In terms of defensive capabilities, he is no different from the Chaos level.
In other words, if the Great Sage Wan Yu wanted to attack him with a secret technique of will, unless the opponent's will had reached the level of a God-King, he could at most suffer a minor injury.
After hearing Chen Yuan's explanation, Irele finally felt relieved, thinking that with such strength, her master indeed had no need to fear a primordial universe master.
To put it bluntly, this identity is not noble in the eyes of Chen Yuan's master and servants. As long as Chen Yuan is willing, he can take over the original universe at any time after he passes through reincarnation.
Subsequently, Chen Yuan arranged a meeting place with Wan Yu Da Sheng through Yi Lei Er, who acted as an intermediary.
Perhaps to put their minds at ease, the other party arranged the meeting place directly inside the Tower of Primordial Beginning.
As for the timing? The avatar of the Great Sage Wan Yu is already waiting there, and as for Chen Yuan—
With a thought, he vanished from his spot and appeared in the Primordial Tower in a distant dimension the next second.
The moment he appeared, the Great Sage Wan Yu instantly sensed him, his gaze brightening slightly: "He's actually from the Dimensional Dao of Space? What powerful teleportation ability!"
But the next second he saw through Chen Yuan's true nature, and his brows furrowed slightly: "You're just a Lord of the Universe? You're the master of the Primordial Tower?"
"It is I." Chen Yuan nodded slightly. "You can call me the Lord of the Primordial Beginning."
"The Primordial Ruler —"
This Great Sage of Ten Thousand Feathers looked no different from an ordinary human, except that he wore a bright silver feather robe and had a pair of small, close-fitting wings on his waist and below his ears.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with undisguised disappointment as he looked at Chen Yuan, and he said without any attempt to hide it, "I originally thought that someone who could train a slave with ultimate genetic divine power must be some kind of powerful being, but I didn't expect him to be just a mere universe lord?"
"Even your genetic level is inferior to that of your servants; you haven't reached the limit yet."
Wan Yu Dasheng shook his head. "I think I understand now. The reason this intelligent servant is collecting life materials isn't for one of her master's descendants, but for you!"
"You're right, Irelia did collect materials from life forms in various dimensions for my sake."
Chen Yuan did not deny it, then asked with a puzzled look, "You seem quite disappointed? There's even a hint of anxiety in your expression."
"As a Great Sage of Chaos and an existence that has possessed the original universe, he should have a limitless future. Becoming a God-King is not a problem at all."
"With such unparalleled success, what are you worried about?"
The Great Sage Wan Yu looked at Chen Yuan with considerable surprise. "I didn't expect that you, a mere universe lord, would know so much? Could it be that you have already gone to—uh."
He was suddenly taken aback, because he had been warned by the supreme rules that he must not mention the Origin Continent to beings who had not yet passed through reincarnation.
"Wait, you haven't gone through the cycle of reincarnation yet??"
The Great Sage Wan Yu's face showed astonishment: "How do you know so much without ever having gone through reincarnation? And how does a universe lord like you master the Great Dao of Space?"
"I have indeed never gone through reincarnation," Chen Yuan said truthfully. "As for why I know so much—that's my secret, and there's no need to tell you."
"————" After hearing what the other party said, Wan Yu Da Sheng couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Ever since he transcended reincarnation—no, even back to the time when he became the number one in the universe—no one had dared to speak to him in such a tone for a very long time.
Even after arriving on the Origin Continent, he remained a powerful figure among those of the same realm, and everyone he encountered treated him with utmost respect.
And now, a mere ruler of the universe dares to contradict him to his face—truly, he is ignorant of his own limitations.
"You should be glad that I am not a cruel person by nature, otherwise I would have been reduced to ashes the moment you uttered those words."
Wan Yu Dasheng's expression suddenly turned indifferent: "But I also have to tell you that, for some reason, I've been feeling very irritable lately, so you must think carefully before you answer my questions."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't want to know the consequences of angering a great sage."
"Really? You can't even stand the truth?" Chen Yuan said nonchalantly, then changed the subject, "Let's not talk about that for now. I'm a little curious, what's the reason you called me here?"
"Or is it that you simply want to see me, and there's nothing else going on?"
"If that's the case, now that you've seen me, let's release Irene. We'll leave each other alone."
"————" Wan Yu Dasheng did not reply, but instead gave Chen Yuan a deep look.
He now fully understood what had been strange about him all along: the cosmic ruler opposite him had always been speaking to him as an equal!
Yes, the other party did not treat him with the attitude that a master of the universe should have when facing a chaotic sage, but rather regarded him as an existence of the same level!
"—I don't know where you get the confidence to keep talking to me like this."
Wan Yu Dasheng said coldly, "Get out of here before I get completely angry."
"As for why I wanted to see you in the first place—just consider me a mistake. You, a mere cosmic lord, have no need to know anything about me."
As he spoke, the Great Sage of Chaos stood up, preparing to leave.
"Wait a minute." Chen Yuan stopped him. "Even if you let me go, you at least have to give my little maid back to me."
"—This is the price you pay for offending me."
Wan Yu Da Sheng felt that he had a really good temper, as he did not make a move in the face of such provocation.
He said calmly, "If you want to take back your intelligent life, wait until you truly have the strength to speak to me as an equal."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Just then, the voice of the Primordial Lord came from behind again.
"The strength to engage in equal dialogue with you?"
How do you know I'm not qualified to have an equal dialogue with you?
As soon as he finished speaking, an astonishing will surged towards him, its sharp edge like a razor-sharp blade, making him feel a slight chill at the back of his head.
The Great Sage Wanyu suddenly turned around and saw that the Primordial Lord had somehow put on his battle armor, and his eyes were slightly brightening.
More importantly, above his head, there was a sword blade formed from his will, which was the source of the feeling of being pricked by a thorn.
Sensing the power of this sword of will, the Great Sage Wan Yu's expression changed slightly, and he blurted out four words: "A Sainthood of Willpower?!"
