The Initial Universe had not yet fully evolved. Or rather, it had regressed into its original state.
After all, before the Original Ancestor was suppressed, he possessed peak Tier Ten strength.
With such power, it was impossible that his Small Universe had not yet evolved and was still in its initial state.
If one claimed that the Original Ancestor had just broken through to Universe Strongest and, before even evolving his Small Universe, already possessed peak Tier Ten strength, Luo Fan did not believe it.
That would mean the Original Ancestor had created a peak Tier Ten secret technique before breaking through to Universe Strongest.
What kind of concept was that?
The Duan Dong River inheritance only required a Universe Master to create a Tier Six secret technique.
And that was under the premise of having inheritance and references.
Basically, anyone who could create a Tier Six secret technique during the Universe Master stage had a considerable chance of breaking through to Void True God, or even Eternal True God.
If one could create a Tier Seven secret technique during the Universe Master stage, there would be a possibility of breaking through to Chaos Ruler. (TL/N: Chaos Ruler is Primal Chaos Sovereign Realm. Check the wiki or the auxiliary chapter for more info.)
If one could create a Tier Eight secret technique during the Universe Master stage, there would be a possibility of becoming a God King.
If the Original Ancestor truly could create a peak Tier Ten secret technique during the Universe Master stage, would he still need to seize the Primal Universe?
Relying solely on the evolution of his Small Universe, he could have directly broken through to Void True God.
Therefore, Luo Fan speculated that the Initial Universe had become what it was now due to certain unknown reasons.
Because the universe was in its initial state, a small amount of chaotic airflow would appear within it. However, this chaotic airflow was sparse and mixed.
As a result, even a Universe-level expert could remain within it unharmed.
The chaotic airflow in the Universe Sea was different and extremely pure.
The pressure produced by this chaotic airflow, even without deliberate attack, could easily crush an Immortal being to death.
Luo Fan turned his head to look at the Primal Universe. His first impression was simply that it was enormous.
Its boundaries could not be seen at a glance. Its diameter was at least tens of trillions of light-years.
Luo Fan could not understand where the Original Ancestor had found the courage to attempt to seize such a colossal lifeform, or rather, celestial body.
Looking at the Primal Universe before him, he could not help but wonder when his own Primal Universe avatar would grow to such a level.
After observing for a while, the Lord of Ice Peak and Luo Fan teleported to a stretch of void.
There were thirty-nine wormholes here.
All thirty-nine wormholes were recorded in the human race's Universe Sea map.
The human race knew exactly where each wormhole led.
The corresponding markings were also present on the Universe Sea map.
Outside the Primal Universe, Divine Kingdom teleportation was impossible, and there was no Dark Universe.
Therefore, in the Universe Sea, there were only three ways to travel.
The first was to fly slowly on one's own.
This method was the safest.
While flying, one could expand a domain-type treasure to probe the surrounding dangers.
In this way, if danger appeared, one could respond in time.
This method was also the most commonly used travel method among experts in the Universe Sea.
Although flying was certainly slower than the other methods, time was not very important to these experts.
Safety was what mattered most.
Even for those from the First Reincarnation Era who were closest to destruction, time was not considered precious.
Even the experts of the First Reincarnation Era would only face annihilation after tens of trillions of eras.
Therefore, the dozens or hundreds of years spent traveling were nothing to them.
Precisely because time was the least valuable thing to Universe Masters and Universe Strongest experts, most experts traveling in the Universe Sea chose to fly slowly.
It was safe, and sometimes they might even discover treasures along the way.
The second method of travel was teleportation.
However, teleportation carried certain risks.
If the location was unfamiliar, one might accidentally teleport into a dangerous region.
Some dangerous regions could trap even a Universe Strongest forever.
Therefore, experts venturing in the Universe Sea generally only dared to use teleportation in relatively familiar areas.
The final method was the natural wormholes like the ones before Luo Fan.
The distance traveled through natural wormholes varied greatly, with both high upper and lower limits.
Some wormholes might only lead to a location not far away.
Others could connect to a place countless light-years distant.
However, if one did not know what lay on the other side of a wormhole, it was best not to attempt it lightly.
Of course, this method carried slightly less risk than teleportation.
Because after passing through a wormhole, as long as one did not die instantly, there was still a chance to return through the same wormhole.
In the Universe Sea, most journeys were completed through natural wormholes, while the remaining portions relied on teleportation and flight.
Of course, after endless ages of exploration, the human race had already recorded the connection points of many natural wormholes.
This allowed them to determine the fastest route to their destination.
The Universe Sea was different from the Primal Universe. Within the Primal Universe, due to its special structure, one could determine one's coordinates anywhere.
But in the Universe Sea, it was impossible to directly confirm one's coordinates.
This meant one might not even know where one was.
Therefore, maps were extremely important in the Universe Sea, and the reference markers on those maps were even more important.
Only by relying on maps and reference markers could one avoid becoming lost in the Universe Sea.
Becoming lost in the Universe Sea was extremely terrifying. Once lost…
If one tried to search for the way back by repeatedly teleporting, one might only drift farther and farther away.
After that, one would be permanently lost in the endless Universe Sea.
If fortunate, perhaps after endless eras one might find the way back.
More likely, one would never return.
No one knew how vast the depths of the Universe Sea truly were.
Nor did anyone know what existed within.
However, with Luo Fan now present, the human race could manufacture wormholes in large numbers.
Even wormholes created by avatars, with the assistance of the special treasure Connected for Ten Thousand Miles, could link two locations separated by 100,000 light-years.
If the Space Worm avatar personally constructed a wormhole, it could even create one connecting locations ten million light-years apart.
With these wormholes, human experts could even travel back and forth to the Primal Universe within a short time.
Under normal circumstances, a Universe Master from the Primal Universe exploring the Universe Sea might need dozens or hundreds of years to return.
If deep within the Universe Sea, it might even take thousands of years to return to the Primal Universe.
Because the Universe Sea was extremely dangerous, sometimes teleportation was impossible and one could only fly slowly.
But if Luo Fan constructed a large number of wormholes, human experts could return to the Primal Universe quickly.
Not only that, they would also gain convenience in escaping.
Without a special token created by the Space Worm avatar, one could not enter the wormholes.
Therefore, if pursued by enemies, they could rely on wormholes to shake them off.
When not in use, these wormholes could also be temporarily closed.
This was something Luo Fan had long planned.
He intended to have some avatars begin constructing large numbers of wormholes throughout the Universe Sea.
Just as he had done in the Primal Universe.
The current Primal Universe could be said to be filled with wormholes created by Luo Fan.
It was just that many of them were hidden.
He hoped the Universe Sea could be the same.
As for becoming lost?
Luo Fan was not worried at all.
If an avatar became lost, it would only mean losing a tiny amount of divine power.
As for the treasures on it, they could be sent back through the system space.
Moreover, venturing into places no one had ever visited might even bring unexpected gains.
Therefore, Luo Fan had no fear of becoming lost.
He even intended to deliberately send some avatars into the depths of the Universe Sea to see what truly existed there.
Although the Universe Sea currently had only three great forbidden regions, Luo Fan knew that in the near future, a fourth great forbidden region would appear, the World of Jin.
That was the corpse of the King of Jin.
It was currently located in the depths of the Universe Sea.
Luo Fan felt that after so many years, the depths of the Universe Sea likely contained more than just the corpse of the Jin God King.
Furthermore, the Universe Sea did not contain only one life-bearing celestial body, the Primal Universe.
After all, the Universe Sea contained three thousand Primal Universes.
Luo Fan also wanted to know whether it was possible to travel from the Universe Sea to the region of another Primal Universe.
Therefore, he directly ordered some avatars to begin randomly constructing wormholes toward the depths of the Universe Sea.
If safe, they would leave behind a fixed wormhole.
If dangerous, they would self-destruct.
The experts of the Universe Sea had not even fully explored the three great forbidden regions, so they would not casually venture into the deeper areas.
Even the portion of the Universe Sea known to the human race had not been fully explored.
Many dangerous regions within it remained inaccessible.
Even the Sacred Land Universes that had existed for countless reincarnation cycles had not completely explored the Universe Sea.
Therefore, no one would idly explore areas beyond the three great forbidden regions.
After all, the greatest number of treasures appeared within the three great forbidden regions.
Of course, the risk of becoming lost was also a factor.
Thus, whenever a Universe Master of the human race ventured into the Universe Sea, they would leave behind a divine power avatar.
At the very least, this ensured the preservation of the map.
However, this was not entirely safe.
If one reached an unexplored area of the human race or could not find reference markers, one would be completely lost.
Therefore, many human Universe Masters often traveled by flight.
In this way, they could ensure awareness of their location while also drawing maps along the way.
The human race's current map had been drawn bit by bit by its experts.
…
Soon, the Lord of Ice Peak's avatar brought Luo Fan before Natural Wormhole Number Fifteen.
Along the way, it was mainly the Lord of Ice Peak who teleported with Luo Fan.
After all, a Universe Master could teleport up to 10,000 light-years at once.
Although Luo Fan's strength was sufficient, he was ultimately only a Venerable.
Therefore, he could only teleport two or three thousand light-years at a time.
…
After the two entered Natural Wormhole Number Fifteen, a figure immediately arrived before the wormhole.
