Moreover, compared to the beings in the Hong Meng Realm, Zhou Qing had already embarked on the path of carrying Primordial Source Qi with Laws ahead of time.
Zhou Qing's future achievements would absolutely far surpass those of many beings in the Hong Meng Realm.
After all, Zhou Qing, who had already achieved the Law-guided Primordial Source Qi, would at minimum reach the level of a half-step Primordial Source Being in the future.
Most likely, he would also reach the level of a low-level Primordial Source Being.
After all, he was the first person in the Lin Meng Universe in countless years to comprehend Time Regression, possessing talent and spiritual aptitude far beyond ordinary people.
In the Primordial Space, the Hong Meng Beings numbered over thirty thousand.
Among these Hong Meng Beings, most of those who transcended from Roy's Starry Sky Universe could at least achieve the level of a half-step Primordial Source Being.
Only a small minority and most Hong Meng Beings who transcended from other Universes were limited by their innate universes and incomplete foundational establishment in their early stages, capping their potential at the half-step Primordial Source Being level.
It could be said that Zhou Qing's mere successful guidance of Primordial Source Qi was enough to place him in the lower-middle or even middle tier among these many Hong Meng Beings.
"Zhou Qing, you are doing well."
Linley appeared before Zhou Qing and expressed his admiration.
"Teacher!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Zhou Qing was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Teacher, I haven't seen you for so many years. Has something happened?"
"We haven't participated in the Universe Ranking Battle for the past few quadrillions of years."
After some catching up, seeing that his teacher Linley was in good spirits, Zhou Qing couldn't help but ask.
Before the Universe Ranking Battle, for the Lin Meng Universe to produce a Heavenly Venerate, Linley had to personally forge a Heavenly Venerate Treasure containing the Time Law. This treasure was bestowed every sixty quadrillion years. A God King who collected all three parts of the Heavenly Venerate Treasure could, with Linley's help, comprehend the complete Time Law and become a new Heavenly Venerate.
Since the Lin Meng Universe began participating in the Universe Ranking Battle, the people of the Lin Meng Universe had broadened their horizons. Coupled with the rewards from the Universe Creator for achieving certain rankings in the Universe Ranking Battle, a Heavenly Venerate was basically born every quadrillion years.
Furthermore, if these Heavenly Venerates continued to achieve good rankings in future Universe Ranking Battles, there was a slight chance they could break through the shackles of being a Heavenly Venerate, become Hong Meng Beings, and enter the Hong Meng Realm.
However, ever since Linley entered the Primordial Source Space, the Lin Meng Universe had detached itself from the Primordial Space and followed Linley into the Primordial Source Space, absorbing a large amount of fire qi to evolve into a Great Universe. Naturally, it could no longer participate in the Universe Ranking Battle with the Universes in the Primordial Space.
Qin Yu's Qin Meng Universe was the same.
Even Roy had not held a Universe Ranking Battle during the thirty quadrillion years he spent breaking through in the Primordial Source Space.
Now, although the longevity races in various Universes still retained records of other Universes and accounts of the Universe Ranking Battle, the fact that the Universe Ranking Battle had not been held for many years led everyone to speculate whether there were any rifts between the Universe Creators.
Even without the Universe Ranking Battle, the Starry Sky Universe, with its profound background, would not have a shortage of Hong Meng Beings. Almost every Yanjì would have over ten Immortal Emperors breaking through to become Hong Meng Beings.
The Lin Meng Universe, ever since it stopped participating in the Universe Ranking Battle, and with Zhou Qing having just broken through the limits of a Heavenly Venerate, he was the first person to become a Hong Meng Being.
"Hmm, Universe Ranking Battle, you say?"
Upon hearing Zhou Qing's question, Linley also felt a slight sense of daze.
The Universe Ranking Battle...
That period was the most relaxed and joyful time for his brothers.
However, it was also thanks to their second brother, Roy.
If not for Roy's existence, they would not have thought of breaking through the Primordial Space.
At that time, his brothers might have lived carefree lives for a while, but when a Primordial Source Being discovered the location of the Primordial Space within the Primordial Source Space, the Primordial Space would have been devoured by the Primordial Source Being clans.
At that point, no matter how powerful they were within the Primordial Space, what would it matter? Would they not still be destined to perish along with the collapse of the Primordial Space?
Fortunately!
Now, under the leadership of their second brother, Roy, their eldest brother Hong Meng and fourth brother Qin Yu had become World-class Primordial Source Beings, and he himself was on the path to becoming a World-class Primordial Source Being. It could be said that all internal and external troubles of the Primordial Space had currently been swept away, and there was no longer any worry of destruction.
No, the Primordial Space had already been incorporated into Roy's Hong Meng Realm, so the Primordial Space was the safest.
Their eldest brother Hong Meng could also be considered the freest person.
As for their fourth brother Qin Yu and himself, they would have to wait until their second brother Roy's Chaos Space grew to a point where it could accommodate more Origin Universes before they could transfer the Qin Meng Universe and the Lin Meng Universe into the Chaos Space.
At that time, their brothers would have no worries in the Primordial Source Space.
Once their four brothers' Universes were gathered together in the same Universe again, it would not be a problem to hold the Universe Ranking Battle.
In fact, it might even be possible to rank Primordial Source Beings.
Thinking of this, Linley patted Zhou Qing's shoulder, "Don't worry, it will still be held in the future."
"Zhou Qing, during this period, focus on comprehending Laws and carrying more Primordial Source Qi with your own Laws."
"At that time, you might not be able to participate in the Universe Ranking Battle, but you can participate in a higher-level competition."
"There, every opponent you meet will be a powerhouse carrying Primordial Source Qi with the power of Laws."
"If you achieve good results, I, as your teacher, will ask your second senior uncle for a favor and give you a great opportunity!"
In the Primordial Source Space, the limit for humans was High-level Primordial Source Beings.
To achieve World-class Primordial Source Being, one must possess an Origin Universe with a Primordial Source Origin.
But because of Roy, Linley could imagine that as long as they captured a World-class innate Primordial Source Being, Roy could integrate the Primordial Source Law Origin of this innate World-class Primordial Source Being into the inner world of Hong Meng Beings. This would allow the Hong Meng Beings who cultivated inner worlds to comprehend Primordial Source Laws like innate Primordial Source Beings, enabling their Universes to grow into Origin Universes.
Naturally, when the Universes within their bodies grew into Origin Universes, it would be the time when they completely stepped onto the pinnacle of World-class Primordial Source Beings.
"Mm, I understand."
"Don't worry, Teacher, I won't disappoint you!"
Zhou Qing nodded solemnly.
Since his teacher had called it a massive opportunity, Zhou Qing naturally didn't want to miss it.
For cultivators, the pursuit of higher realms was etched deep into their souls.
Even a slacker cultivator would jump up and flip over when encountering a higher-level opportunity.
Let alone Zhou Qing, who wasn't a slacker.
"Mm, keep up the good work."
After encouraging Zhou Qing, Linley left the Lin Meng Universe and entered the new universe he had newly created.
Then, he immersed himself in comprehending the Laws.
Linley's path to enlightenment was by fusing Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire into Hong Meng Qi to become a Hong Meng Being. His comprehension of the four Laws of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire was already quite high.
At this moment, Linley faced the origins of the four Primordial Source Laws. His comprehension of the four Laws was soaring.
However, comprehending the four Laws was only the most basic stage.
What Linley needed to do now was to fuse the four Laws he had comprehended. Using his fused Laws, he would guide the origins of the four Laws to fuse into his Lin Meng Universe.
Only in this way could Linley completely digest the four Primordial Source Origins and become the strongest World-class Primordial Source Being.
Otherwise, even if Linley integrated the origins of the four Primordial Source Laws of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire into the Lin Meng Universe, causing it to evolve into a Source Universe, he would ultimately only be a World-class Primordial Source Being possessing the origins of four Laws.
Even if he were stronger than other World-class Primordial Source Beings, the difference would be extremely limited.
Only by completely fusing the four Primordial Source Origins could Linley stand at the pinnacle of World-class Primordial Source Beings, with the potential to fight back against innate Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings.
Moreover, if Linley could completely fuse the origins of the four Primordial Source Laws of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire, he might even comprehend the Essence of the Primordial Source Space earlier than Hong Meng and Qin Yu, becoming another ultimate Primordial Source Lord of humanity.
...
"Not bad, not bad…"
With their current strength, Hong Meng and Qin Yu could naturally see through Linley's Lin Meng Universe.
As soon as the four Laws entered the Lin Meng Universe, they caused the beings within the universe to break through. This was a sign of the universe's foundation improving.
As Linley comprehended and fused more Primordial Source Law Origins, more fused Law Origins would be absorbed by Linley's Lin Meng Universe, allowing the Lin Meng Universe to evolve towards becoming a Source Universe.
"Third Brother's cultivation has gotten on track, so we need to start working hard too."
"Fourth Brother, the Primordial Space has been a bit restless lately. I intend to go and witness the Laws of more innate World-class Primordial Source Beings. Would you like to accompany me?"
Seeing Linley begin his cultivation, Hong Meng nodded to Qin Yu and then invited Qin Yu to cultivate with him.
Compared to comprehending the so-called illusory "Essence" of the Primordial Source, Hong Meng preferred to seek inspiration through battle.
Hong Meng Space now had Roy's Starry Sky Universe. As the true master of Hong Meng Space, Hong Meng's foundation was actually deeper than almost all World-class Primordial Source Beings.
This could be seen from how Hong Meng easily defeated and captured four innate World-class Primordial Source Beings by evolving universes with his own Hong Meng Laws.
If Hong Meng were to fully digest the foundation of his Hong Meng Universe, he might also touch upon the "Essence" of the Primordial Source Space.
Qin Yu, on the other hand, had always followed the path of evolving universes through stars.
For him to comprehend the Essence of the Primordial Source Space, he needed to have a greater understanding of the next step for a universe after it had evolved from stars.
At this moment, Qin Yu's Qin Meng Universe had only recently been promoted to a Source Universe. He wasn't very clear about the extent to which his strength could be utilized or how it compared to other innate World-class Primordial Source Beings of the same level.
Therefore, upon hearing his elder brother Hong Meng's invitation, Qin Yu readily agreed.
"Alright, since Big Brother invites me, let's go together."
After saying goodbye to Roy, Hong Meng and Qin Yu left the Space Barrier and ventured into the Primordial Source Space.
Roy wasn't worried about them.
With Hong Meng and Qin Yu's current strength, if less than ten World-class Primordial Source Beings who had excavated their bloodlines to the limit encountered them, it wouldn't be Hong Meng and Qin Yu who should be worried, but those ten World-class Primordial Source Beings.
As for encountering more than ten ultimate World-class Primordial Source Beings, Hong Meng and Qin Yu would indeed be in some danger. However, up to now, the number of Primordial Source Being races that possessed more than ten ultimate World-class Primordial Source Beings did not exceed twenty.
But even within these Primordial Source Being races, it was unlikely that these ultimate World-class Primordial Source Beings would exist simultaneously within the same race.
Given the way Hong Meng and Qin Yu wandered the Primordial Source Space, the chance of them encountering more than ten World-class Primordial Source Beings was actually not high.
With his brothers' matters mostly settled, Roy prepared to address his own issues.
Looking at the two universes, one large and one small, beside him, Roy shook his head. He did not remove the space-time barrier he had previously set up. With a casual wave of his hand, he carved out a spatial passage next to him.
This was a spatial passage connecting to the Primordial Source Space within Roy himself!
...
Thirty trillion years ago, Hong Meng Realm.
The moment Roy left the Heavenly Palace and entered the Primordial Source Space, Tina, who was in seclusion on Phantom Island below the Four Great Heavenly Palaces and Reincarnation Island, opened her eyes.
"Teacher's aura… is gone?"
The next moment, Tina's spiritual sense instantly radiated outwards.
This spiritual sense instantly spread throughout the Hong Meng Realm, then swept over numerous Hong Meng Beings. Tina's spiritual sense passed over Lilia's Samsara Island and the Heavenly Palaces of the Four Great Hong Meng Controllers.
During this process, none of these Hong Meng Beings, not even those as powerful as Qin Shuang and Lilia, detected Tina's spiritual sense. It was as if the spiritual sense simply didn't exist.
"Nothing?"
"Not only is there no trace of Teacher, but there's also no trace of First Senior Uncle, Third Senior Uncle, or Fourth Senior Uncle."
Having not found any trace of her Teacher or her three Senior Uncles in the Hong Meng Realm, Tina's expression grew serious.
Tina's spiritual sense continued to spread beyond the Hong Meng Realm.
Then, Tina was the first to perceive that something was wrong with the space of the Hong Meng Realm.
The entire space of the Hong Meng Realm seemed to have become a "surface," both inside and out.
Starting from a single point and circling the entire Hong Meng Realm at an extreme speed, one would find that upon returning to the starting point, they had already traversed the entirety of the Hong Meng Realm, both its interior and exterior.
What an incredible spatial paradox this was!
Even Tina was shocked by this sight.
Then, the entire Hong Meng Realm, in a manner Tina couldn't comprehend, rapidly "swallowed" another colossal entity into itself.
However, with Tina's cultivation, she couldn't even discern where the space that had been "swallowed" into the Hong Meng Realm was located within it.
Only after the space of the Hong Meng Realm returned to normal did Tina slowly recover her senses.
At this moment, Tina clearly understood the reason for the abnormality in the Hong Meng Realm's space earlier.
Previously, Tina had cultivated her "Illusion Dao" to a level that even Roy didn't fully understand. As a result, after learning about the existence of Primordial Source Space, Roy subconsciously excluded Tina when calculating combat power.
