Chapter 477: Future Changes

‘If that’s the case… it seems I’ll have to keep this a secret.’

A thought flashed through Chen Yu’s mind.

He wasn’t sure if his cheat was responsible for this.

But even if it was, he could never tell anyone.

His cheat was his greatest secret.

He wouldn’t tell a single soul, no matter what.

“How about we try again?” Chen Yu asked.

Hearing this, Nangong Ba’s expression changed instantly. He looked at Chen Yu, shuddered, and immediately backed away.

“Brother Yu, don’t look at me. Go find someone else. After losing so much, who knows how long I’ll have to cultivate just to make it back.”

“…”

“Then would any of you like to give it a try?” Chen Yu’s gaze shifted to Feng Miaotian and the others.

They all shook their heads in unison.

They might have wanted to try before, but now? It was out of the question. Nangong Ba’s cautionary tale was right before their eyes, and they had no desire to follow in his footsteps.

They were truly envious that Chen Yu could refine the World Tree to increase his power, but envy was all they could feel.

Not just anyone could refine the World Tree; it had nothing to do with strength.

Being strong didn’t mean you could refine the World Tree. The ability to do so was a matter of luck.

“Alright, let’s drop the matter. Chen Yu, don’t you speak of this to anyone outside.”

Wu Wudi said with a grave expression, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded. “Don’t worry, Elder Wu. I understand.”

Wu Wudi nodded, and the group chatted for a while longer.

The topic returned to the previous battle.

This battle was destined to make his name known throughout the Celestial River.

For the Human Race, however, this was a good thing.

By managing to defeat the Taixu Divine Child, Chen Yu’s potential had far exceeded everyone’s imagination.

It sent a massive shockwave through the various Alien Races in the Celestial River Star System.

The deterrent effect was immense!

Thus, it could also influence the dynamics on the Stellar Battlefield, allowing the Human Race’s influence to expand even further.

…

After chatting for over two hours, the group dispersed one by one, leaving only Wu Wudi and Feng Miaotian in the living room.

“Has the Angel Empress sent you any news yet?” Wu Wudi asked, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu shook his head. “Not yet, but I have a feeling it will be soon.”

Wu Wudi pondered for a moment, then looked at Chen Yu and said, “Regarding the Angel Empress, since she has already agreed, just proceed according to your original plan. After it’s done, you should head to the Outer Domain. Only there can you achieve faster improvement.”

Chen Yu nodded. “Don’t worry, Elder Wu. I know what to do.”

Wu Wudi glanced at him and sighed. “You kid are full of surprises. I hope you can grow stronger quickly. I have a premonition that the universe may face a massive upheaval in the future.”

“This upheaval will likely involve the entire Mortal World. Without sufficient strength, what awaits us will be nothing short of a catastrophe.”

Hmm?

Hearing this, Chen Yu looked at Wu Wudi. “Elder Wu, are you saying the Underworld Cosmos is about to make a big move?”

Wu Wudi nodded. “Yes, it seems they are. Once the power of the Underworld erupts, the entire Mortal World will be greatly affected.”

“This is a war between two universes. Once it breaks out, there’s no telling how many races will be reshuffled.”

“It’s that serious?” Chen Yu’s eyelid twitched. He looked at Wu Wudi with disbelief.

Wu Wudi took a sip of tea and said, “It’s just a natural development. A collision is inevitable. If the power of one side breaks the balance, it will inevitably sweep over the other.”

“I’m afraid countless major factions will emerge then. It will be a universal catastrophe, but also a time of universal glory.”

“Can we calculate when it will erupt?” Chen Yu asked.

Wu Wudi shook his head. “That cannot be deduced. Not even a Great Emperor has that ability, let alone me.”

“I’m telling you this in advance so you can be mentally prepared. You have great potential. If you become a Great Emperor and protect the Human Race, it should be no problem.”

Chen Yu fell silent.

‘Protect the Human Race… That’s a heavy burden!’

‘But it’s also unavoidable.’

‘When the Underworld and Mortal World collide, the first thing to erupt will surely be a contest between the top-tier powers.’

‘Escaping is impossible.’

‘However, this is also an opportunity.’

‘Relying on the power of my cheat, maybe I can have an explosive breakthrough during the collision and reach the supreme peak.’

‘Attain the path of a Great Emperor, or even… surpass the Great Emperors!’

“What are your plans now?” Feng Miaotian asked, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu leaned back on the sofa, holding his teacup and swirling it gently. “For now, I’ll wait for news from the Angel Empress and see if I can cultivate an eighth Law in the meantime.”

“Hmm, as for what’s next… I want to go to other worlds and check out their Space-Time Secret Realms.”

“You want to refine the World Trees of other space-times?” Feng Miaotian’s eyes widened as she stared at him.

Chen Yu nodded. “Yes, that’s the plan. The more World Trees I refine, the faster my strength will increase.”

“Aren’t you afraid of how it will affect your Divine Tribulation?” Feng Miaotian frowned, a hint of worry in her voice.

Chen Yu smiled. “Do I have a choice now? Since I have to face it, I might as well face a stronger one. A powerful Divine Tribulation isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It can make my physical body stronger and empower my Laws.”

Feng Miaotian: “…”

‘What kind of crazy logic is that?’

Looking at Chen Yu, Feng Miaotian was at a loss for words.

‘Not only is he not afraid, he actually seems to be looking forward to it.’

Still, what Chen Yu said did make some sense. After all, he had already refined a World Tree, so he was past the point of no return.

Since he had to face it anyway, gaining more strength beforehand could only be a good thing.

“If you want to go, this contains information on the Space-Time Secret Realms in all of our Human Race’s worlds. You can take a look at it yourself when you have time.”

At this moment, Wu Wudi opened his hand, revealing a black USB drive, which he handed to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu’s eyes lit up as he looked at the black USB drive.

“Thank you, Elder Wu.”

Chen Yu joyfully accepted the USB drive. With this detailed information, he wouldn’t have to search for them one by one.

The information Wu Wudi gave him was definitely reliable.

“Alright, get some rest. I’ll be leaving now.” Wu Wudi stood up, and after speaking, he tore open the fabric of space, his figure slipping inside and vanishing.

Seeing Wu Wudi leave, Feng Miaotian also stood up and looked at Chen Yu. “Chen Yu, I’ll be going too. Once you’re finished here, come to the Outer Domain. Remember to contact me.”

Chen Yu nodded. Feng Miaotian’s figure flickered and vanished before his eyes.

After watching Feng Miaotian leave, Chen Yu’s gaze fell upon the black USB drive in his hand.

His smart-watch instantly read the information within. Soon, he had learned all the information about the Anomaly Realms in the Human Race’s other worlds.

In the Nine Worlds of the Human Race, excluding the Ancestor Star and the Azure Sky World, the other worlds contained several hundred Space-Time Anomaly Realms alone.

He wasn’t certain that every Anomaly Realm had a World Tree, but even if only a fraction of them did, the number would be staggering.

If ‘Ling’ devoured and absorbed all of them, Chen Yu couldn’t imagine how powerful its world-force would become.

Although it was currently in a deep slumber, that wouldn’t stop him from collecting them in advance. Then, he could feed ‘Ling’ its fill all at once.

His own strength would also increase dramatically.
