Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking
Chapter 622 - 622: Truth Exposed; There are Humans out there too?

--

"Why? Is there something big going on out there right now?" Cedric asked curiously.

A massive spatial turbulence, sir. It's a natural phenomenon that happens consistently in all Chaos Realms.

While I do not doubt your abilities, sir. Your chances of surviving this spatial turbulence is nil because even Heavenly Venerates have to be wary of them. This phenomenon is, after all, born from the forces of nature of this Chaos Realm. It contains the abstract power of the Heavenly Law of Space and Time. At your current state, even a random breeze of it could scatter you in the endless loop of spacetime madness with no hopes of returning.

Cedric felt a shiver running down his spine after hearing that. The main consciousness of the void wouldn't lie to him, and it wasn't mocking his strength, either. It's just stating the truth, but it still caused Cedric to feel bitter.

"You speak of this Heavenly Law...is this a higher form of Concept Laws?" Chancellor Igor asked, his tone barely hiding his curiosity.

Yes, it is.

Planetary Laws, Grand Solar Laws, Cosmic Laws, and the Primal Chaos Laws. Those are your standards here. But in truth, these are just imitations of the real concept laws of the Primitive Universe.

My creator, Odin, even as a Heavenly Venerate himself, doesn't have sufficient understanding of Heavenly Laws. He specializes in Life and Death Laws, which he has comprehended to the Heavenly Law stage.

Once you go out there, chances are, you will be confused, and your abilities might not work how you think they should because the concept laws there are different. They're raw, fortified, and wild. If you're not careful, it can easily induce madness in you.

Out there, the stages of concept law comprehension are different. The first stage is the Fundamental Laws, next is the Great Laws, then the Heavenly Laws, and finally, the Primal Chaos Laws. Each level was more profound than the next. Many people dedicate their entire lives to pursuing a single path and die without seeing its end.

What all of you comprehended here wouldn't even count as a complete Fundamental Law since it's just an imitation. A simulation, if you will.

'Oh, that sucks,' Cedric groaned inwardly. And judging by the faces of his comrades, it's obvious that they too felt the same.

Learning that all of their achievements so far were nothing but mere simulations and imitations...how can they not feel upset?

Even Cedric, who's the youngest of them, still spent hundreds of years of effort and hard work to understand the concept of laws, and now someone tells him that what he understood wouldn't even count as the fundamentals out there? How could anybody expect him to feel okay with this?

Learning that your entire life turns out to be a lie wasn't something that anyone could easily accept.

Releasing a deep and exhausted breath, Cedric asked, "What are the standards of strength out there? I'm talking about life evolution or something like it."

It's also called Life Evolution out there, sir. And it starts the same way as what you lot do here.

It begins with Primary Warrior training, strengthening one's existence to their limit before breaking through the Planetary Level. After that is the Grand Solar Level, then the Cosmic Level.

After the Cosmic Level is where the difference begins. Out there, after one reaches the limit of the Cosmic Level, they start preparing for the Immortal Level.

The Immortal Level is divided into the three sub-stages. Immortal Warrior, Immortal Lord, and Immortal Emperor.

Immortals are people who elevated their existence to the point where they could survive the harsh elements of the Chaos Realm with just their physical bodies. So long as even a single drop of their blood remains, there is a possibility for them to be revived or reborn.

They could still die, but it would be extremely challenging to do so. Usually, people who have reached this stage are even more afraid of dying, so they would ensure to always leave a way out for themselves, just in case an accident happened, making it even more difficult to kill them.

You can all be considered to be in this stage, though mostly incomplete since your concept law comprehension is not up to the standards.

After the Immortal Level comes the Universe Master level. People who reached this stage are welcomed and highly respected in any Chaos Realm.

Universe Masters are people who have proved their achievements by pursuing their path to greatness. Meaning that their concept laws have reached the late or peak of the Great Law Stage. And it's usually at this point that they start understanding other concept laws and elevating them to the Great Law Stage too.

Their might is enough to dictate the survival of a whole universe. They can create and destroy one if they so please. That's why they're called Universe Masters.

After that comes the Heavenly Venerate level, the stage that my creator reached.

Heavenly Venerates had the power to roam the Chaos Realms unhindered. Obviously, they're more respected everywhere compared to Universe Masters, and they're far stronger too.

Heavenly Venerates are people who have elevated their main path to the Heavenly Law stage. The gap between the Great Laws and Heavenly Laws is immense, so much so that Heavenly Law users could easily toy with those who only comprehended the Great Laws.

Above the Heavenly Venerate level was the Empyrean Level. Then it's the Origin Lifeform level.

Pardon me for not providing you with any further details because I honestly have no idea how to describe them. My creator didn't tell me everything, just enough to give me an estimate of how strong he was.

"No, that's...that's more than enough, thank you," Cedric muttered, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Judging by what it said, the people out there are scary. Their standards are too high and vast. The gap was just too much, and it's disheartening.

Cedric looked at his comrades, and judging from their thoughtful expressions, it seemed that they could continue this for another day.

"Alright, let's call it a day for now." He declared, "We've got what we need and bargained for. Let's return home and digest everything we've done so far."

Cedric then turned to where he felt the main consciousness of the void was and said, "I'll leave this sword here. You can use this to communicate with him if there's anything you want me to know."

"Also, I'd lift the seal. Don't create any Void Creatures anymore. Just do what you can to keep us hidden from any prying eyes. We're not ready to be discovered yet."

Understood, sir. Please be careful on your way out.

With that, Cedric led the other clones out of this space, returning to the surface of the void to meet the real bodies.

Cedric has already lifted the seal and felt the main consciousness of the void resurfacing. It followed his command and didn't breed more void creatures; it just lingered there in silence, sleeping and waiting for Cedric's next order.

Meanwhile, Cedric and the Chancellors silently made their way back to the office. Their thoughts were messy. Dealing with the revelations they heard directly from the main consciousness of the void certainly wasn't easy, even for them.

"Well, how's that for an existential crisis?" Cedric snorted lightheartedly as he plopped down on the couch and downed a whole glass of wine.

He heard others snickering at his words but not saying anything. A few minutes of silence went by after that before the Holy Spirit Ancestor hesitantly asked:

"Should we tell them?"

"No."

"Hell no!"

"Not a good idea."

"Not now."

All responses he got were negative, which didn't surprise him at all.

It's really not the time for others to know. They just got out of the war. Everybody was still celebrating the victory and relishing their hard-earned peace. It's definitely not the time to reveal this information to them because that would just dishearten them.

Maybe in the future, but definitely not now.

"I'll go home for a bit," Cedric stated. "As usual, I'll leave my clone here. If you need me for anything, you know how to reach me."

The others nodded to him. It's obvious that they too wanted to go home and relax for now. Everything they've learned so far was just too much after all, and they all need time to recover from it.

Cedric teleported to his home, but before he could relax, he felt a buzzing at the back of his head. The main consciousness of the void sent him a message, and he decided to hear it out.

Sir, I just want to say that the human race is prospering out there.

That line stunned him greatly.

I didn't say this while you were with the others before because I didn't want to cause any problems or conflicts. But yes, there are humans out there too.

While there are many lifeforms that have been born and raised here, humans are something that my creator couldn't possibly create using Heavenly Laws, even though he's human himself.

Humans are actually one of the most prosperous tribes in the Primitive Universe; they have people across all the Chaos Realms. In fact, the location of this place is close to a human civilization as well, so if you ever decide to explore outside, I can send you there.

That's all. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions; I'll try to answer them if I can.

The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
