You have leaped a distance equivalent to 56 time spans towards the center of the boundless void.
"56 time spans, that's 700 million years lined up together, 100 million ...
"But isn't this a unit of time? Using a unit of time to calculate distance?"
"Like...light-years?"
[Literally, it means that the Boundless Sea of Void is expanding outwards every moment; it reached the Source of Light Dust in the year 7e56.]
You have moved to the position it expanded to in the 6th century 56th year.
[As an aside, the end of the Boundless Void Sea is after 3e44 years.]
"The boundless void has been opened and expanded for 7e56 years."
Yun Shou smacked his lips.
"This boundless void sea where I am exists has only existed for 3e44 years."
You decide that after each jump, you will search for some universes in that location and rebuild their systems.
[It can be considered a casual search for the "primordial universe."]
"The world is so big..."
[At 1.5 million years old, you arrive in a universe entirely filled with "water," named the Tidal Universe.]
The cosmic membrane is extremely thin; you could penetrate it in the blink of an eye and enter the entire universe.
[However thin it may be, its strength is still extremely high; it requires a seventh realm or someone at the sixth realm like yourself to break through it.]
The interior of this tidal universe is entirely filled with fluids; there is no "vast, empty starry sky," only a "real ocean."
Furthermore, the pressure of the fluids is extremely high, making survival impossible in any environment, and it is also impossible to break through the void within these fluids.
"Normally, they can only be ejected from structures such as the cosmic membrane/world wall and broken into the void, and can only move in reality. Unless they comprehend the corresponding Dao, they will be stuck at the limits of the present world. It seems that this tidal ocean has similar Dao."
In this universe known as the Tidal Universe, planets are extremely rare, because they represent planets directly exposed to fluid oceans, facing pressures powerful enough to annihilate anything below the four realms.
The beings in the universe live in independent planes, which are nailed to the void and do not move with the flow of water.
Once extraordinary individuals within the world reach a certain level, they can break through the world's barriers and travel at faster-than-light speeds through interstellar space, following the rising tides of the universe.
"...It seems that the ocean currents that flow within it are an exception, and can also transcend the limits of the present world."
"Without this ocean current, the universe would truly be a very closed space."
Some wars between worlds are waged by tidal forces, where destructive weapons—torpedoes—are launched from above ocean currents.
"Are there also divine torpedoes and SP torpedoes?"
[Those worlds that are already downstream are not always in a vulnerable position, because there are large and small currents in the universe, and sometimes these currents reverse direction.]
The great migrations span the entire universe, while smaller migrations may only cover millions of miles, forming a waterspout vortex structure.
[You see that the extraordinary technologies of some worlds are not advanced, and the guidance effect of cosmic energy technology is too poor.]
To prevent the instability of cosmic currents from causing excessive deviations in the launch trajectory of the torpedoes, they chose to encase superhumans inside the "torpedoes" and use artificial guidance.
[Some worlds are better off; they've invested extra in installing small escape pods within the torpedoes, allowing the torpedo pilots to "parachute" back to their original world at the last minute.]
[Some worlds have even more outdated technology, unable to even set up escape pods, and can only call upon heroes to sacrifice themselves, using their lives to lock onto targets and launch an attack.]
Both of the above can only be described as unavoidable circumstances, but you soon encountered an even more outrageous world, a world called the Vortex.
[The torpedoes used in the Vortex World are all artificial carbon-based guided missiles, and to save money, they are not equipped with escape pods, which means the pilots are doomed.]
The difference from the two worlds mentioned above is that they tell the pilot, "It's equipped with an escape pod; you can press the button to escape a few seconds before impact," or "This isn't a suicide attack; you're piloting a World Vessel as a World Infiltrator, not a World Torpedo."
[By the time the unfortunate pilot is about to reach their destination with the Boundary Torpedo, they will either discover that the escape pod does not exist, and they will only be left to wait for death in despair—after all, one cannot survive in the ocean under the Four Realms.]
"Weld the machine door shut."
[Either you unknowingly stumble into the other world, thinking you're about to cross over, but instead you and the machine explode together.]
After they launched their suicide attacks, the official authorities of the Vortex World were still announcing to the people of the world: "They are all heroes! Especially the God Sky Suicide Squad and the Returning Wind Torpedo Squad, they are all great heroes of our world, every single one of them is a good guy, absolutely awesome!"
This sounds somewhat familiar.
[The use of torpedoes is merely a tactic employed in intermediate-level worlds; in more advanced worlds, there are naturally more sophisticated methods of warfare.]
"Boiling the sea" is one of them.
At the age of 1,520,000, while swimming in the ocean of space, you witnessed two civilizations at the True Immortal level clashing against each other. You simply referred to them as Parties A and B.
Both civilizations A and B have numerous subordinates, including several small and medium-sized worlds, responsible for providing backup or human resources for their two leaders.
[In the war, General Zhang Xing of Party A's first move was not to directly attack Party B's vast territory, but to burn the entire sea upstream of Party B's territory.]
Although this area-of-effect attack did not cause much damage to the other world, which also belonged to the Immortal-level civilization, it had a devastating impact on many of the other world's subordinate worlds.
[This includes the "Vortex World" you saw before. When the high-temperature ocean currents passed through the Vortex World, the extreme heat penetrated the world's walls, igniting the land and its inhabitants.]
"Zhang Xing Barbecue, um."
[At 1.54 million years old, you have reached the center of the tidal universe and learned the truth of the cosmos.]
However, you already had a suspicion about this truth from the beginning, and arriving at its core only confirms your suspicions.
At its center lies a world billions of light-years in size, named the Heart of the Sea by the true immortals of this universe.
Creatures living in the ocean need to break through to the seventh realm to be qualified to leave the universe or enter the Heart of the Ocean at the center of the universe.
This universe isn't an ocean-like universe... it just has an exceptionally thick membrane!
