I Am the Cosmos

The Cosmos is mysterious and unfathomable, yet Luo Feng realized that the place he had arrived at was likely one of the most mysterious places in the Cosmos, or perhaps, *the* most mysterious place!

A Universe Master is already a peak existence in the Cosmos. To be able to guide my consciousness here, completely unbeknownst to my teacher, the Chaos City Lord, within his own domain... such power can only belong to the Cosmos itself.” Luo Feng observed the surrounding area, where countless specks of light drifted, yet all avoided him.

“The faint pressure emanating from these specks of light is even more terrifying than that of the Sirius Master.”

“What exactly are they?” Luo Feng was utterly bewildered.

Suddenly—

Whoosh!

One of the specks of light suddenly transformed into a streak of flowing light, shooting rapidly towards Luo Feng’s consciousness. Its speed far surpassed that of light; it seemed that here... the speed of light was no longer the ultimate limit.

“Swoosh!” A fleeting thought of escape crossed Luo Feng’s mind, but the speck of light had already made contact with his consciousness.

“Boom~~~”

A series of images rapidly transmitted into Luo Feng’s consciousness. His mind seemed to witness the birth of the Cosmos, the genesis of countless lives, and then its destruction, a scene of world-ending devastation. Yet, after seeing these numerous images, Luo Feng immediately forgot them, as if they simply couldn’t be retained in his memory.

Immediately after, an endless stream of information merged into his consciousness.

“Thump!” Luo Feng’s consciousness was directly ejected from that space.

...

Within the human territory of the Cosmos, in the Primal Secret Region, the Thousand Treasures River domain.

The Chaos City Lord remained completely unaware of any of this. Although he could control a segment of space-time, this so-called segment of space-time... was the Cosmos itself! If the Cosmos wished to punish a certain Universe Master, it could completely strip them of their control over space-time. The operation of Cosmic laws could naturally transcend the Chaos City Lord’s perception.

...

Inside one of the many palaces, within Luo Feng’s residence.

“Hmm?” The Earthling original body, seated cross-legged, opened his eyes, a hint of bewilderment in them, quickly followed by shock.

Meanwhile, the Insectoid Queen and Insectoid warriors within his inner world regained consciousness. However, they didn’t even realize that time and space had momentarily stagnated—only Luo Feng’s consciousness was aware of what had transpired.

“Aside from my consciousness, my body...”

“No changes. My Earthling original body, Golden Horned Beast clone, Demon Killer Clan clone, and Abyssal Sea clone are all unchanged.” Luo Feng quickly checked. His Abyssal Sea clone was still over ninety thousand kilometers tall, with a life gene level just exceeding ten thousand times.

“No, there is a change—”

Luo Feng quickly noticed the core within his spatial ring. The core had transformed into a hazy, chaotic color, and at first glance, it seemed as if endless space-time was in motion within it.

“This, this... what happened to my core?” Luo Feng was utterly shocked, yet he couldn’t comprehend it, as he had never heard of such a thing.

“My consciousness was bestowed with a piece of information, containing a heaven-defying innate secret technique.”

“My most important core has also undergone a transformation.”

“All of this happened after my Abyssal Sea clone reached its perfect limit. Its current life level is just over ten thousand, estimated to be less than 10100... Could it be 10081?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but recall this number, which was known to be a very mysterious number in the Cosmos.

“Is perfect life gene 10081 times that of an ordinary life form?” Luo Feng speculated.

“Never mind,” Luo Feng shook his head, carefully sensing his core. “My consciousness has been granted a heaven-defying innate secret technique, and I believe the transformation of my core must also be beneficial.”

“Innate secret technique...”

Luo Feng meticulously recalled the secret technique he had just received in his consciousness.

Previously, when his consciousness was drawn into that space, information was transmitted to him. While some information, like the evolution of the Cosmos, was completely forgotten, he only remembered the method to execute an innate secret technique. Luo Feng didn’t understand any of its profound mysteries or how it was created. Although its execution was incredibly complex, the method itself was etched into his consciousness as if carved by a blade.

“An innate secret technique, allowing me to possess one out of thin air, must be a gift from the Cosmos,” Luo Feng secretly mused. “Could this be a boon for me achieving perfect life genes?”

Most innate secret techniques involve law engravings etched onto the skin, or life crystal cores, and so on.

However, the secret technique bestowed upon Luo Feng this time was directly imprinted into his consciousness.

...

Innate Secret Technique — I Am the Cosmos!

Its power is extremely formidable. Once activated, divine power burns, and the divine body instantly transforms into a miniature cosmos, trapping enemies within it. This miniature cosmos can bind enemies, weakening their strength, while the user’s own power naturally surges within it, greatly diminishing the enemy’s capabilities. Should it self-destruct, it would be like a ‘Cosmic Explosion,’ directly annihilating the enemy!

This heaven-defying innate secret technique... has extremely high demands on divine power.

According to the detailed information received, the minimum threshold to activate the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’ is for the Abyssal Sea clone, having achieved perfect life genes, to become an Immortal. An Immortal Abyssal Sea clone... must also have a divine body amplitude of 30 times and burn its divine body...

Only then would it meet the minimum energy requirements to activate ‘I Am the Cosmos’.

‘I Am the Cosmos’, each activation must last for at least about 9 seconds.

Activating it at the minimum energy standard for the shortest duration, with the Abyssal Sea clone’s divine body of over ninety thousand kilometers, would only allow for 10 uses... before the divine body would be completely incinerated!

“Too outrageous, too heaven-defying, but I like it,” Luo Feng’s eyes burned with fervor.

An Immortal-level Abyssal Sea clone is even more powerful than the Insectoid King.

Divine body amplitude must exceed 30 times!

And burning divine power!

In this state... even in a normal battle, Luo Feng could suppress many Universe Venerables. Not to mention that a single move consumes one-tenth of his ninety-thousand-kilometer divine body! With such a massive amount of divine body energy instantly expended, just how powerful would the ‘I Am the Cosmos’ technique be?

Before truly activating it, Luo Feng couldn’t even imagine.

“In short, it’s an incredibly heaven-defying move,” Luo Feng mused. “An Immortal Abyssal Sea clone has a stronger divine body than many Universe Venerables. Many Universe Venerables are only a few meters or dozens of meters tall, meaning... the vast majority of Universe Venerables, even burning their divine bodies, wouldn’t be able to sustain this technique. Only those with immense physical volume can use this move.”

How powerful would it be?

Unimaginable!

Furthermore, Luo Feng currently didn’t understand even a shred of the profound mysteries behind the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’. It was like an undecipherable tome. Fortunately, the execution method was deeply etched into his consciousness as if carved by a blade.

...

“What should I do?”

“What should I do?” Luo Feng was troubled.

“If I choose to let my Abyssal Sea clone transform into an ocean, and the ocean continuously expands, then the ‘new Abyssal Sea clone’ that condenses will have its volume and life gene level significantly reduced,” Luo Feng mused. “In that case, after I become an Immortal, I won’t be able to use the ‘I Am the Cosmos’ technique at all.”

“My Golden Horned Beast clone, after reaching Immortality, can further advance its life gene level, also reaching nearly ten thousand times! But it’s only a thousand kilometers long, and it also cannot sustain this technique,” Luo Feng said anxiously.

Even the massive divine body of the Golden Horned Beast.

Appeared insufficient in the face of the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’.

“Unless the Golden Horned Beast can also achieve perfect life genes, at which point its size would increase again,” Luo Feng thought. “Otherwise, I would have to let enemies enter the ‘Endless Abyssal Sea’ for the Endless Abyssal Sea to use this technique. But once the Abyssal Sea clone transforms into the Endless Abyssal Sea, it will be unable to move independently, confined to one location.”

“What should I do?”

Luo Feng faced a choice.

Should the Abyssal Sea clone transform into an ocean?

If it transforms into an ocean, Luo Feng’s combat power would be weakened, and his strength would only surge if he returned to the ‘Endless Abyssal Sea’! His power would be diminished when adventuring outside, unless his Golden Horned Beast clone also achieved the perfect gene limit and increased in size, then perhaps it could activate the Cosmos-bestowed innate secret technique ‘I Am the Cosmos’.

If it doesn’t transform into an ocean, its combat power would be astonishing. The Abyssal Sea clone, over ninety thousand kilometers tall, would rampage freely. However... divine power consumption would be rapid, and replenishing it would be troublesome.

...

Luo Feng pondered for several minutes.

“I originally chose this clone for its ‘undying body’. Although not transforming into an ocean would grant heaven-defying combat power, no matter how heaven-defying... even born Beast Gods have a day of demise,” Luo Feng stated. “As long as I can live, anything is possible. My Golden Horned Beast clone will also become very powerful in the future.”

“Even if I can’t use ‘I Am the Cosmos’ when I become an Immortal, once I become a Universe Venerable... won’t I be able to use it then?” Luo Feng said.

“Why rush for a moment’s gain!”

“Moreover, at the Immortal stage, the Endless Abyssal Sea can still use this technique,” Luo Feng made his decision.

...

The Abyssal Sea clone, over ninety thousand kilometers tall, stood in mid-air.

“Transform into an ocean!!!” the Abyssal Sea clone roared.

This was its last appearance as the Abyssal Sea original body. From now on, it would be the Endless Abyssal Sea... Even when going out to battle, it would only manifest a clone, whose strength would be significantly weaker.

“Rumble~~~” The Abyssal Sea clone, over ninety thousand kilometers tall, instantly dissolved. In mid-air, towering blood-red waves appeared, forming a sea of blood with a diameter of nearly a million kilometers.

“Innate Secret Technique — Creation!” An Abyssal Sea clone, over nine thousand kilometers tall with a life gene level of 1000 times, manifested.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~

Endless world power surged into the sea of blood, causing it to rapidly recover. After recovering... the clone merged with the sea of blood, causing the sea of blood to expand once more.

...

The expansion of the sea of blood was truly ferocious. Luo Feng had completely depleted the Cosmic Crystal reserves of his subordinates, yet it still wasn’t enough for the sea of blood to absorb. After all, deities didn’t carry many Cosmic Crystals.

Cosmic Crystals are quite cheap.

After all, the Cosmic Crystals needed to create an extra-large spatial ring are only worth one or two mixed-element units.

“Buy.”

“Cosmic Crystals, start with 1 million mixed-element units.”

“1 million mixed-element units... for Cosmic Crystals? Lord Luo Feng, are you sure you want to purchase Cosmic Crystals?”

“Yes, send them quickly.”

“Understood, Lord Luo Feng. 1 million mixed-element units worth of materials are within your free quota and will be delivered shortly.”

Luo Feng frantically purchased Cosmic Crystals, then threw them into his inner world, causing the sea of blood to rapidly expand again and again. With such an endless supply... the volume of the sea of blood continuously grew, quickly surpassing the 80 million kilometer mark...

90 million kilometers, 95 million kilometers, still expanding... yet his inner world was already feeling too small.
