Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Inner and Outer Universe. Part One
While I was flying with Mia on our way back, I was thinking about everything that had been mentioned in the novel about the world that William came from.
William's world was originally just an ordinary world containing seven continents, where humans were the dominant species. This world was similar to Earth in every way, including its technological development and general atmosphere.
However, ten years before William's death, the apocalypse occurred, as a gate from another world opened, and out came deadly monsters that destroyed everything in their path.
At the same time, the Ancestor's Tower appeared, and humans began to follow the path of hunting, leading to the establishment of the Hunters' Association by the government. Hunting became the only way for humans to face the new threats, and new ages of power and development began.
William was one of the first to awaken and became one of the strongest hunters of his time. But even with his great power, the world showed no mercy. The fighting was relentless, and death lurked around every corner.
In the end, even William, who was known as the Royal Hunter, could not escape his fate. His fall was not due to an external enemy, but because of betrayal—betrayal by his wife and friends whom he trusted.
In his final battle inside the Ancestor's Tower, after reaching the 88th floor, he was betrayed and left to face his fate alone. But his death was not the end… it was the beginning.
After his fall, he was reborn in this different world, where everything had changed, and where he now had a new chance… to rewrite his destiny.
In this world, after many opportunities and confrontations, William achieved what no one before him had been able to accomplish.
He became the first emperor in the inner universe in thousands of years,
As the inner universe experienced a new resurgence in the emperor's path, William was the first to reach this legendary rank after thousands of years since the end of the era of emperors.
But William was not alone in his journey; others followed in his footsteps, including:
• The Golden Lion, the beast contracted with William, who was known for his strength and prestige.
• The Demon Monkey, the beast contracted with William, who made a name for himself amidst the fires of war.
• The Golden Dragon King, William's friend and one of the strongest beings in the inner universe.
As time passed, all of them became legends, but William's name remained engraved as the first emperor of the inner universe in this new era.
Even after hundreds of years, William's name is still known and etched in history as the person who revived the emperor's path in this desolate age.
However, there was a mysterious figure who appeared only once in the novel: The Silver Dragon Queen, the only person who managed to leave the inner universe.
She was mentioned by the Golden Dragon King, who said that she discovered a way to reach the outer universe after a 20-year search.
It was also mentioned that she was married to an unknown person, and that she laid two eggs.
However, there were rumors that she did this only to awaken her husband, who was in a coma.
In the novel, the matter of the inner universe and the outer universe was not fully explained; it was only mentioned that this world is located in the inner universe.
As for the outer universe, it was mentioned only once, in the chapter where the Golden Dragon King spoke about the Silver Dragon Queen.
And this is the reason why I thought about helping the Poison Empress repair her soul and give her a new body.
I thought about that after receiving the vampire ancestors' inheritance, as there was a possibility for that to happen.
I am certain that the Poison Empress will be of great benefit to me.
Especially in the matter of the outer universe and the inner universe, I will be able to gather a lot of information from her regarding this topic.
In any case, the course of our next journey will depend on the information I will gain from her. After that, I will decide where we will go.
After a short time, we arrived at the entrance of the cave.
I descended and entered directly, heading towards the Empress of Poison.
"Hello, Empress. It seems you're enjoying your new body.
The Empress of Poison said: "Well, the feeling of life and having a body again is amazing… I'm truly grateful to you. Is there anything I can help you with?
"Yes, I want you to teach me about poisons and medicine. Will you do that?
The Empress of Poison looked at me intently.
The Empress of Poison said: "You? Do you want to walk this path? Learning about poisons and medicine is extremely difficult, but it is very useful. Are you serious? I don't mind taking you as my disciple.
"Alright, then it's a deal. You will teach me. However, I have a question for you… I want to know everything about the Spirit Realm and the Outer Universe.
The Poison Empress said: "You're asking about the Martial Spirit Realm? Well, I'll tell you. In fact, I don't know how you learned about it, however, you'd better forget it. It's impossible to ascend to in this Desolate Era. In fact, even in ancient times, it was impossible. Anyway, before the Golden Age. It will be almost impossible to ascend to or descend from the Martial Spirit Realm. Do you understand?
What do you mean by that? Is there a reason for this?
The Empress of Poison said: "Well, yes, there is a reason for that. I believe you know about the battle that took place and caused the fall of my era—the Era of the Emperors. It ended, and there is no longer an emperor in this world. In fact, after that battle, ascending to the Emperor's Throne became impossible. No matter how talented a person is, they will not be able to ascend unless they are chosen by the universe itself or possess extraordinary luck and opportunities.
"Alright, but what does that have to do with the inability to ascend to the Spirit Combat Realm? I don't see any connection between the two matters.
The Empress of Poison said: "Well, listen to me carefully. The Spirit Combat Realm and the Immortal Realm were severely damaged due to the conflict between the emperors. They could no longer withstand any more destruction; otherwise, they would fall, just as this world fell from a higher realm to a lower-level world. Because of this, more than 20 emperors, 50 individuals at the half-emperor level, 100 saints, and over 1000 individuals below the saint level from all over the universe gathered under the leadership of the Universe Emperor and the Space-Time Emperor. They then created a barrier that divided the universe into an Inner Universe and an Outer Universe. The Inner Universe is where we are, while the Outer Universe is where the Spirit Combat Realm exists.
"After that, many emperors attempted to break the barrier, but to no avail. It was far too powerful and remained unscathed. Crossing this barrier is impossible. However, there is only one way for a person to cross it, and that is through the Contract Circle. This circle is divided among the imperial families that participated in building the barrier in the Spirit Combat Realm.
