Chapter 169 Can't Get There
From Jiang Liu's perspective, all living things on this planet are like ants in a sandbox.
In his inner universe, this planet is extremely small, but it is also the only real area.
He was surprised, shocked, and even a little confused.
The reason for all this can only be traced back to the purple energy. He stole the spirit of the universe and caused drastic changes in this real space.
At this moment, on this huge planet beneath our feet, humans are still very weak, with a total size of no more than tens of thousands.
They are divided into five branches, and they are born with the power of the five elements and have the ability to control the five elements.
But at the same time, among the mountains and forests, animals, plants, and various strange and giant beasts, there are more and more strange beasts that have become spirits and monsters. They follow the most basic biological laws and will devour humans.
Jiang Liu watched quietly, and soon he frowned.
Although humans are naturally powerful, even stronger than ordinary aliens in the universe, they are still no match for these monsters.
Soon, the number dropped rapidly, leaving only a few thousand people.
If the current situation continues, this group of humans will probably die and become extinct soon.
Jiang Liu was naturally curious and had expectations for the first batch of newly born humans in his inner universe.
His Cloudtop Palace is empty. If these humans are successful in their practice in the future, they can take up positions and perform certain functions there.
The inner universe is becoming real. This is his personal experience. No one knows how it will develop in the future.
Perhaps he could really build a fairyland here.
Even in Jiang Liu's conception, in the future those powerful dead spirits in the outside world could be sucked into this momentary space.
Moreover, as the number of spirits on this planet increases, the speed at which the inner universe evolves from virtual to real is also accelerating.
"Like dominoes, the purple air triggered a chain reaction, and the entry of the spirit accelerated the speed of this reaction."
"I created a new universe unconsciously?"
Jiang Liu murmured.
He continued to observe, and he no longer cared about the passage of time in the outside world.
In his memory, those years under the title "Under One Person" seemed to have just passed by in a flash, and the real beginning was decades later.
Compared to these trivial matters, creating a universe seems more interesting.
Time in the inner universe is passing quickly.
In the blink of an eye, when Jiang Liu looked again, he saw that there were only less than a thousand humans left out of thousands.
These one thousand men hid in caves and did not even dare to enter the forests. Only the hunting team was allowed to go out every day, but even so, they still suffered continuous losses.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest."
"If this group of humans cannot adapt to this cruel environment, they will eventually die out."
"But I don't know when the next batch of decent humans will be born."
Jiang Liu sighed.
He can save these humans, but if he fails, he will still die in the harsh living conditions.
Jiang Liu continued to observe, hoping for some slight changes.
But the ending was regrettable, this human race eventually died in the mouth of the monster.
From beginning to end, he just observed silently and did not choose to take action.
When the last human disappeared, Jiang Liu let out a long sigh.
At this moment, he didn't know whether he felt disappointed or regretful.
The evolution and birth of human beings is not easy and requires very harsh conditions. No one knows when the next batch will appear.
So, he was in a bad mood for a long time afterwards.
In a blink of an eye, another thousand or ten thousand years had passed in the inner universe. Compared to the short time before humans appeared, this period could be called long.
After practicing, the monsters become more intelligent. In terms of intelligence, they are no different from humans. They even absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and have developed a set of practice methods that suit themselves.
Finally, one after another, the huge wild beasts began to change shape. Their bodies began to shrink, but they were still ten feet tall. Their bodies were similar to those of humans, but they were different.
They have their own unique aesthetics and will choose to transform into a body shape that is most pleasing to their eyes and most suitable for combat.
This is necessary to live in this world. Evolution, practice, and becoming stronger must serve the battle.
One day.
The most powerful monster in this land of mountains and rivers suddenly looked up at the sky.
"For countless thousands or tens of thousands of years, every time I looked up, I could see the ethereal fairy palace among the clouds!"
"What's there?"
"A more powerful beast?"
Thinking of this, it suddenly flew up, and clouds appeared under its four strong hooves. It actually flew towards the sky stepping on the clouds.
When it moved, the other monsters in the mountains and forests were startled and looked at him in shock.
"It's Hong! What is it going to do?"
"The Heavenly Palace, according to legends since ancient times, is where the immortals and the Emperor of Heaven live. We cannot set foot there!"
"Yes, the origin of this world comes from the sky. Because of this, even though we can fly, we dare not show it often. This ability to fly has been regarded as a taboo for a long time."
"If you offend the Emperor of Heaven, you will be punished with endless sins!"
The monsters were terrified.
Because, since birth, the memories in their blood have vaguely told them that the origin of this world lies in that heavenly palace.
Deep in the heavenly palace, there live many gods and the supreme Emperor of Heaven who controls everything.
This is a mark from the soul and blood.
But Hong didn't care about them. His face was full of excitement and anticipation at the moment.
What are the gods high above, the Emperor of Heaven, and the heavenly palace that is more magnificent and dazzling than the sun and the moon like?
There is no fear at all, only the courage to fight recklessly.
Hong has a tiger body with wings on both sides. His body is as large as a kilometer and his strength is even more powerful. When he flaps his wings, golden lines spread across his body, adding inexplicable strength to him.
This is the ability it possesses after thousands or even tens of thousands of years of practice.
Everything is done from confusion, through instinctive practice, without the help of any other external forces.
In a blink of an eye, he had rushed into the clouds and saw the huge fairy palace in front of him, which seemed to be illusory and vague.
On the top of the fairy palace, the sun and the moon are clearly visible on both sides.
A magnificent, majestic and huge gate of heaven stands in front of us.
What made Hong feel strange was that no matter where he flew from, east, west, or south, the huge sky gate would always be facing him.
What happened next was even more shocking.
It looked very close visually, but no matter how much speed was increased, the celestial palace could not get any closer.
Hong felt puzzled, bewildered, and even a little fearful.
He flew for three months but still did not get close to the huge gate in the sky.
The majestic heavenly palace just floats before my eyes, yet always seems so far away.
It's right there, but I can't get close to it.
"I can't make it?!"
Hong was filled with despair and could not understand this sign at all.
