My Bottle Cosmos-Chapter 574 - 539: The Emperor’s Qualification and the Mid-Aged Cosmos_2

"This is a small investment."

Atabia said, "Even though I'm in a phase of rapid growth, I'll eventually hit a bottleneck. It's not like I can reach the end by just staying in seclusion and cultivating. I need to prepare for the bottleneck period, explore, and study other forces..."

And the Emperor could be a good investment.

If it succeeds, I can gain favor, and if it fails, I won't lose anything since it's just a small help on the side.

Besides, Atabia has a feeling in the dark.

Time seems to be the cornerstone for other first-level gods, birthing other authoritative laws...

Perhaps the present time may help birth true space.

...

Poof.

The Emperor opened his eyes; after the seven thousandth simulation, he finally saw a pleasant result.

[You were caught in malicious commercial competition and began battling the Fire Rope God. Blood kept spurting from within you, dyeing the earth. The spurted blood turned into space fragments, scattering across the land.]

[The Fire Rope God was surprised by your strangeness, wondering if this sickly terminal disease patient had some major illness, but still, he slew you. Before your end, you finally gained a glimpse of understanding from the constantly exploding space fragments within you.]

[The results of this simulation allow you to choose the following.]

[1. Memory retrospective of a normal future.]

[2. A hint of the space law blueprint you gained insight into.]

"I succeeded!" The Emperor opened his eyes, revealing a hint of a smile.

This approach of mine is indeed effective.

...

...

"These beasts." On Earth, in the courtyard of Ning Guochang's old residence, Li Qing couldn't help but complain, "They can still play like that? It's a bit shameless."

Still being so cautious, stubbornly refusing to come in.

Now that the Trade Ancient City is built, it's for them to come in.

Yet this time, it's still the Million Gods, squatting outside watching, with no one entering the Trade Ancient City for a grand adventure.

They even developed a whole new tactic of squatting outside the gate.

What's the point of building this map then?

If they don't come in, it's no different from the previous Guangyin Ancient City.

However, despite Li Qing's complaints, building this ancient city still had to be done.

He's just really speechless, like how the previous Timeless Ancient City exploited their caution, now their continued caution leaves him a bit frustrated.

But the Emperor's change made Li Qing somewhat expectant.

Once again becoming the weak sickly Emperor, constantly coughing blood, who knows where this path will take him?

...

In the blink of an eye, another three hundred years have passed.

Since the entry of the extraordinary on Earth, Wales used comprehensive genetic potions to transform deficient Earthlings into naturally Third Senses.

The average lifespan extended, beginning cultivation of the Extraordinary Martial Path. In these scant few hundred years, they can no longer iterate through generations of population.

As Earth's rapid development continued, they began using the Middle Thousand World crystal wall left underground by Li Qing, developing within it.

During this period of rapid development, only the Emperor remained unobtrusive, crazily entering the simulator, exploring the map of the Trade Ancient City using the future, studying various NPCs, and opportunities.

But his simulator ultimately lasts only a hundred years.

Unable to research for long, at most defeating the Fire Rope God and ruling over tens of millions of surrounding worlds.

Yet he continues to simulate, seemingly wanting to become a Ten-Mile Slope Sword God, leveling up to max at the Newbie Village before showing himself.

This made Li Qing increasingly speechless.

I worked hard to build the Trade Ancient City for you to play like this?

These Atabia and the Emperor and others not following the conventional rules, seem to want the Emperor to clear the entire Trade Ancient City map, knowing all hidden opportunities, treasure chests, and small boss skills, and then directly leave the Newbie Village, a one-life clear, to take on the final boss Birona.

"Forget it, a bunch of beasts."

The unpredictability of worldly affairs, although they don't follow the conventional routes, steady development is also good, maybe after some time, the Time Authority will increase a bit, and the Emperor might also adapt to some Spatial Authority.

Seeing the Emperor's tireless enjoyment, Li Qing didn't want to stay here any longer, planning to take a trip to the cosmos, to see how his hornets' nest has fared.

Hualala!

In the void and dark cosmos, the distant star sea has almost disappeared, leaving only scattered stars.

With the efforts of the Super Space-Time Minecart, about thirty million of Li Qing's billion hornet nests have been completed.

Taking the opportunity to measure the universe's density, size, establishing a data model, deducing the original shape of the universe.

"Although more holes haven't yet been made throughout the universe to explore a complete shape, the data model is roughly complete."

Li Qing pondered for a moment.

The current main universe is far smaller than Li Qing imagined.

Only 60% of its size, as if a bubble has shrunk a circle.

And it's obvious where the shrunken 40% area went, it's the endless sea of subspace fragments outside.

And that's not all.

Now the universe's matter, based on density calculations, has already had 50% of its matter dug away.

The starry sky seen is far less brilliant and prosperous than imagined.

Because light speed is limited, what appears fine here, once space-jumped, will reveal nothingness, long since hollowed out pits.

After large-scale exploration began, an overall shrinkage of half is fairly certain.

After reviewing the data collected by the Super Space-Time Minecart, Li Qing showed a thoughtful expression. "The universe shrinking by half, is it entering the midlife of this universe epoch?"

According to the data model Li Qing previously established.

Like stars, a universe naturally has a life span.

With development, the universe will be mined for resources by newly born Undying Level civilizations, destroying the environment, relentlessly hollowing out.

This is a process towards entropy increase.

And because prior Undying Levels are immortal, irreversible.

The final end of the universe, is all matter, through the development of numerous civilizations, transforming into an Undying Level, the universe completely hollowed out, except for those undying dark matters, with no other matter, deathly silent.

Transforming from a vibrant Light Universe to a great extinction Dark Universe process.

So now it's roughly halfway through its life?

This era entering middle age?

Li Qing kept pondering, this situation making him feel a bit uncertain.

The centrallike time axis, preventing him from determining how many cosmic ends—large-scale dark matter civilizations—have arisen.

"However, these cosmic parasites, I must eliminate them."

Li Qing took a deep breath, his face earnest: "I hold the power to completely kill the Undying Level, being the only one able to these dark matters, to return them to my home... no, to the entire universe's nature."

If others saw Li Qing now, they'd immediately curse at him for being the biggest parasite, now frantically hollowing out bird eggs and resources, so much that all combined civilizations haven't stolen as much as him!

Moreover, this guy's harming the entire universe, yet also preparing to poke it into a hornet's nest.

He wants to build more crystal walls and Ancient Gods, injecting various Trojan viruses, altering the universe's fundamental code.

Clearly, with Saints not dying, great thefts won't stop, he is this universe's ultimate evil villain boss that all civilizations must join forces to crusade against, of all heroic youthful civilizations intent on vanquishing him!

Hualala.

Li Qing was still flying around the cosmic void, with countless minecarts not only digging holes but also madly mining.

Previously there were five million minecarts, now there are thirty-eight million minecarts.

Now Li Qing, his power growing madly!

Simultaneously, the number of crystal walls is increasing exponentially, increasing, and increasing again!

Due to the substantial increase in the number of the Crystal Wall Snail subordinates, each subordinate's slight support falls on him, boosting his strength as well.

This snowball really is rolling.

"Three hundred percent of my power from ten years ago." Li Qing took a deep breath. After accumulating for so long, the mental hospital company finally went public, so the stock surge is normal; he too, like Atabia, entered a period of frantically increasing strength.

He wandered around, feeling as if his minecarts were like ants nibbling on a giant piece of cheese, suddenly frowning.

"Have I found a suspected large-scale dark matter civilization?"

Li Qing showed a hint of surprise; this is the second dark matter civilization-level entity, it's worth taking a look.

Besides, the Trade Ancient City next door is still scheming and calculating, competing to see who has more patience.
