<h4>Chapter 377: Immortal Essence, Power of Genesis</h4>
Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios
The conversation with Moro had a great impact on Meng Lei. Once upon a time, he had always thought that bing a god would mean immortality.
However, even existences far above like a Chief God would only live till the end of an era. Once the reincarnation cycle ended, and the Great Reincarnation And Destruction Process restarted, even a Chief God would be finished.
Immortality?
Eternal life?
It’s all a joke!
“Divinity Crystals! I need more Divinity Crystals!” Meng Lei clenched his fists. “Only with enough Divinity Crystals can Iprehend the supremews of nature or even the Genesisws of nature. Only then I might be able to survive the destruction of the universe.”
Divinity Crystals!
Meng Lei let out a long breath as he looked at Moro again. “What are your ns? Are you going to follow this guy all the way?”
Meng Lei nced at the unconscious Dowa Caesar with some disagreement.
“Why? You want to take me away?”
Moro raised an eyebrow with a ghost of a smile.
“You won’t have a future following him.”
Meng Lei shook his head lightly.
“Future? I’m only barely alive. What future can I have?” Moro gave a self-mocking smile. “If I knew then that I’d turn out like this, I would rather be buried with thest era!”
“There’s a saying back home, ‘To live is better than to die’.” Meng Leiughed. “Plus, so what if it’s a remnant soul? There will always be a way to restore it.”
“You don’t even understand!” Moro shook his head. “Without enough immortal essence, my remnant soul will never be restored!”
“Immortal essence?”
Meng Lei broke into a slight frown.
“Do you know what’s that? That’s a kind of substance that will never decay, get destroyed, and not even the Great Reincarnation And Destruction Process can erase it.” Moro said slowly, “Across the entire universe, there are only three types of immortal essence that I know of, the three great powers of genesis. Yes, the powers rting to the three great genesisws of nature.”
Meng Lei fell silent.
The three great powers of genesis are part of the immortal essence?
Now isn’t this too difficult to obtain?
“So you can imagine how rare and precious the immortal essence is.” Moro continued self-mockingly. “Therefore, I’m destined to never restore my soul!”
“Indeed, the immortal essence is extremely rare. But, there’s still a chance.” Meng Lei suddenly smiled. “Once Iprehended the genesisws of nature, wouldn’t I possess the immortal essence by then?”
“You? Comprehend the... genesisws of nature?”
Moro clutched his belly as if he had just heard a superb joke andughed out loud for quite a while. When he had enoughughing, he cut his smile.
“You? The genesisws of nature? Are you an idiot sent by a monkey?
“So you’re looking down on me?”
Meng Lei smiled.
“Stop joking. If it’s those four Supreme Juggernauts who have alreadyprehended one supremews of nature, I might believe them. After all, they do have hope for the genesisws of nature. As for you...”
Moro sneered. “Forget it!”
“What if I tell you that I hadprehended the spatial, destruction, and lifews of nature? Though it’s just superficial knowledge for now.”
Meng Lei chuckled.
“Gah...”
Moro was in a daze as he looked at Meng Lei. “Kid, you sure you’re not joking?”
“Where’s the need to?”
Meng Leiughed softly and opened his right palm. Threews of nature chains appeared in his palms—a gray one, a purple one, and a green one.
Gasp!
A jolt went through Moro as his eyes widened, and he stared at Meng Lei as if he had seen a ghost. “S-spatialws of nature! Destructionws of nature! Lifews of nature! You reallyprehended the three great supremews of nature!”
“Not three, it’s four, there’s still the time-basedws of nature,” Meng Lei corrected.
“Ah yes, four! Oh gosh! How could someone manage to simultaneouslyprehend four greatws of nature? How is that even possible? This is too inconceivable!”
Moro was frightened. He gasped and looked at Meng Lei as if he was a monster.
“Okay, okay, stop gasping already. This is nothing,” said Meng Lei. “Once Ipletelyprehended the genesisws of nature, you can be excited all you want, okay?”
“Oh, you don’t understand, young fellow.”
As an existence that stood at the very pinnacle once, Moro calmed down soon enough.
He looked at Meng Lei with aplicated look and exined, “The supremews of nature are extremelyplex and profound. This makes them really difficult toprehend.
“Don’t mentionprehending one supremews of nature for a normal deity since they don’t even have the talent toprehend five basicws of nature. These things require lots of talent, after all!
“One type of supremews of nature is already so difficult, let alone four types? Who knows how you managed to do it!”
“Hehe, that’s just talent, nothing else,” Meng Lei said in a showy manner.
“Indeed! This is true talent!”
Moro nodded slightly and continued. “Still, I just couldn’t get over the fact that youprehended four types of supremews of nature. It’s simply too wasteful of your time. An era may seem long, but when itpares toprehending the supremews of nature rtively, it’s still too short.
“I’ll suggest that you choose two among the four. Either you choose time and space for the route of space-timews of nature or choose life and destruction towards the destinyws of nature.
“If you were able toprehend a type of supremews of nature before the Great Reincarnation And Destruction Process, you should be thankful already!”
“You don’t have to worry about this.” Meng Lei had a confident smile. “I won’t give up any of the three great genesisws of nature. My target is to be the legendary Primordial World Genesis God!”
“You’ll regret it, young fellow.”
Moro was rather displeased, but as he thought back on his rtions with Meng Lei, his anger was suppressed. Still, he reminded, “Coming from experience, I don’t want to see you waste your talent like this. Just do as I say, and you’ll thank meter.”
“Perhaps!”
Meng Lei was not too hung up over it, so he returned to the previous topic. “Now tell me your n. Are you continuing with him oring with me?”
Meng Lei would not care about any other ordinary beings, but the person before him was different. That was an old antique that had survived that previous era! His experience, cultivation knowledge,prehension inws of nature...
That’s a treasure right there.
He had to bring him along.
This time, Moro did not reject directly as he fell silent.
“Why? Still hesitant?” Meng Lei raised an eyebrow. “You should know clearly that there’s no future if you follow this hopeless chap.”
“And that means following you has a brighter future?” Moro asked with a bored voice.
“Of course!” Meng Lei gave him a proud smile. “I am confident that I canpletelyprehend the time-basedws of nature within ten years and all four supremews of nature within 100 years.”
Moro was startled and could not help butugh. “Kid, what do you treat the supremews of nature as? Elementary school multiplication table? Ten years toprehend time-basedws of nature? I’ll say you’ll be good enough when you fullyprehend it in ten million years!”
“Ten million years? That is way too long.”
Meng Leiughed. “You might not believe what I’m about to say, but I’m not even 45 years old yet!”
(⊙_⊙)?
Moro was dazed. “45 years old?”
“Hehe, you can ask around if you like.”
