It was a peaceful world.
The mountains in the distance, the rivers on the ground, the giant birds flying past, and the swaying grass. Everything was like the most standard green mountains and clear waters, without the slightest bit of incongruity.
Suddenly, Lu Sheng opened his eyes and looked around at the peaceful, emerald green grassland around him.
Not far ahead, there was an old man in a gray robe, squatting on the ground to pick something.
In the forest further away, a gray rabbit hopped around happily, occasionally lowering its head to nibble on the tender grass on the ground.
"This is the Eternal Ring?" He was a little dazed.
Shaking his head, Lu Sheng looked at the old man in front of him with his back facing him. He walked over slowly, deliberately bumping his feet against the grass to make a sound.
The old man heard the sound and turned his head.
"Uncle … please … ask … where … is … this … ah …?" As soon as Lu Sheng opened his mouth, he felt that something was wrong.
"This … is … called … Bai … Bai …" The old man tried to muster up his breath to reply. But the last word was stuck in his throat, and he could not spit it out.
"Forget it, you'd better not speak." Lu Sheng patted the old man's shoulder speechlessly and stopped talking.
In just a little while, he had already figured out the rules of the world here.
This was a world where everything else was normal, but the sound was extremely slow.
Seeing that the old man was speaking very slowly, Lu Sheng decided to wait for two minutes. He wanted to communicate with the only living person.
He remembered that he had just entered the Eternal Ring at the edge of the Eternal Particles, so how did he suddenly come to this world?
"Could it be that this is the Eternal Ring?"
He was puzzled. Then he stood there patiently waiting for the old man to finish.
Ten minutes later …
Lu Sheng sighed and patted the old man's shoulder again.
"Really, you'd better not say it."
He turned and walked somewhere else.
What made him feel strange was that the old man was still standing there, still trying to finish what he had just said. He did not seem to notice that he had left.
Crossing the lawn, he walked along a path at the edge of the forest.
Lu Sheng originally planned to fly, but he unexpectedly found that this place was filled with an extremely strong sticky force, and even he could not float. He could only walk step by step.
After walking for a short distance, he could see the end of this area.
This was an oval bowl-shaped area covered by a white membrane, which could be considered to be an imitation of the sky. The rest of the place was a landscape of forests and fields.
It was as if an area had been forcefully dug out from some forest world and placed here.
Passing through the trees, he soon came to the edge of the river.
The river was only three meters wide, and there were two people fishing on the bank. These two people were dressed like farmers, but since they could stay in this area, Lu Sheng would never believe that they were ordinary people.
He leapt to the bank of the river and walked straight towards them.
When he got closer, Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks in shock.
The two of them sat on a rock by the river in a daze, not moving at all. Their eyes were looking straight ahead, but there were no eyeballs in their eye sockets, only black holes.
It was a corpse that had been dead for god knows how long.
Looking from afar, their skin looked normal, without any signs of decay. Lu Sheng would think that they were still alive.
Standing by the river, Lu Sheng lowered his head to look at the river.
The river should have been transparent and clear, but when he approached it, it quickly turned into a grayish-black, sticky river filled with debris.
The river gave off a faint stench. With Lu Sheng's eyesight, he could vaguely see something emitting a yellow light at the bottom of the river.
He squatted down and dipped his hand into the flowing river. The grayish-black liquid was indescribably heavy. Just a little bit of it stuck to his skin, but it was like mercury, automatically sliding off as soon as he raised his hand.
"This place …" Lu Sheng frowned and stood up. It was difficult for him to describe the strangeness of this place.
There were clearly people, plants, and animals here.
But it gave him the feeling that there was no life. Everything was like a program that had been programmed in advance.
With a light leap, he jumped across the river and continued forward.
In front of him was a lush green field, swaying with the wind.
The tender sprouts that had just grown reflected the crisp green of the new.
Lu Sheng walked into the field and went straight ahead. A few minutes later, he finally arrived at the edge of this area. It was a transparent wall covered by an invisible membrane.
The entire space seemed to be covered by an invisible bowl. It was completely isolated from the outside world. However, the rules inside were messy. The few rules, including sound, seemed to have been slowed down dozens of times. It was difficult to understand.
Lu Sheng stood before the wall. He reached out and knocked on it lightly.
"Knock, knock."
The wall was very sturdy. It was as if he was knocking on tough cowhide.
He thought about it and closed his eyes. His body adjusted rapidly. Large amounts of matter surged into his body from his Heart World.
The density of this body was getting higher and higher. However, the size of the body remained the same.
A few minutes later, Lu Sheng reached out and touched the wall before him again.
"Pchht."
The originally sturdy wall was now like liquid. He touched it lightly, and it rippled slightly.
'It's just as I thought. The difference in density leads to different areas … I didn't expect the difference to be so great … '
Lu Sheng sucked in a deep breath and strode straight into the wall before him.
The wall that had been solid to him before was now like ordinary water.
He entered it with a light bump.
Behind the wall was a vast yellow space. The ground was covered in endless golden sand. The scorching sun shone in the sky.
The air here was so dense that it was solid compared to other places.
If a creature with a weaker body density were to enter, it would be instantly frozen on the spot, unable to move. Then, its internal organs would easily explode from the pressure of the outside world, and it would die a violent death.
However, for Lu Sheng, who had devoured countless universes, it was not difficult for him to adjust his body's density by relying on the gray liquid's power.
"Whoosh."
He stepped on the golden sand hill that was as tall as a mountain. The back of his foot sank into it. He almost lost his footing.
However, compared to the strange area earlier, this place was much more normal.
Earlier, it was more like a transition area where the density was constantly adjusted and neutralized. Here, however, the density had completely balanced out.
Lu Sheng inhaled. He felt a viscous, oily liquid surging into his lungs. He could barely breathe.
"My lungs aren't strong enough. Deep Blue. "He quickly brought up the modifier.
After the light blue interface popped up, Lu Sheng quickly browsed through a cultivation method that strengthened his body. He piled up his Mental Energy.
A few minutes later, he heaved a long sigh. His body had finally adapted to the intensity of this place.
He stepped on the golden sand hill and moved forward step by step. He was neither fast nor slow.
This area was smaller than the previous one. Lu Sheng only walked for a few hundred meters before he saw a dilapidated white church-like building. It stood silently in the middle of the sand hill.
He quickened his pace and approached it. He stood before the church's door.
There was only one prayer hall in the entire church. It was seven or eight meters tall, with a pointed roof. A diamond-shaped metal symbol was erected on top of it.
From the outside, the church's door was half-open. The rows of round arched windows on the side walls were almost empty. They were empty.
Lu Sheng paused for a moment, then slowly lifted his foot and walked in through the half-open door.
An orange-red fire burned in the church. Apart from the raised platform in front of him, there were only three rows of seats in the hall. Seats that could seat 30 people at most.
An old man covered in white hair stood on the raised platform with his back facing Lu Sheng. He was facing the statue of a god.
His hair and beard were like countless flowing white threads that extended from the platform to more than half of the hall.
The floor, walls, and even the ceiling, the tables and chairs, and the statue of a god were all covered in white hair. The entire church looked more like a nest of hair than a dilapidated building.
Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks. He glanced at the man with his back facing him. Then, he focused his attention on the towering statue of a god.
The statue of a god was extremely strange.
It was not in the shape of a human. Instead, it was a huge, upright, golden polygon.
It looked like some sort of metal ore, but also like an unpolished crystal. There were many sharp edges protruding from it, giving the statue a cold and hard feeling.
"I'm glad that someone's here again."
A hoarse voice came from the polygon statue of a god.
This caused Lu Sheng to look at the standing long-haired man. He had thought that the long-haired man would be the one speaking. Unexpectedly, the statue that looked like a crystal stone was the first to move.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"I'm the ancestor of all rocks. You can call me Yellow River."
"…" Aren't you the Rock Ancestor? I'm the Yellow River …
Lu Sheng was speechless.
"Don't mind me, it's just a name." The Rock Ancestor smiled. "I'm just a rock that wants to become a river. Outsider, how should I address you? "
Lu Sheng fell silent.
"I've done countless good deeds in my life. What I hate the most is seeing people suffer. You can call me Holy Mother."
If you want to play with a fake name, I'll do it too. Who doesn't know how to brag?
"…" The Rock Ancestor looked at Lu Sheng's roiling Devil Qi. The countless souls and resentment on it were the most it had ever seen in its life.
Calling me Holy Mother … Do you have any shame?
"Alright, Holy Mother. I'm glad that I can meet a new guest at the place closest to the Eternal Particle. This is the core of the Eternal Ring. Directly below me is a mysterious passage that leads directly to the Eternal Particle. That is the ultimate mechanism that suppresses one of the Two Extremities of the True Void. Now, tell me why you're here. "The Rock Ancestor Yellow River calmed down.
"My goal is simple." Lu Sheng did not waste any time and raised his hand.
"Last time, in order to save the world, I had no choice but to go to the edge of the Primal Chaos. I ended up planting the seeds of disaster."
The colorful lines in his palm froze. Clearly, they were forcefully suppressed here.
"The aura of Primal Chaos?" The Rock Ancestor was confused. "Lifeforms that have been contaminated by the aura of Primal Chaos rarely last this long. You managed to make it all the way to the Eternal Ring. I can see that you're very strong. "
