Chapter 344: Capturing the Titans, Cosmic Consciousness

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were indeed 100,000 Caius Titans on this mothership. They were the same Primordial beings, just like Uranus, Gaia, and others from the Greek pantheon.

However, the old and the young, as well as the weak and the strong, made up these 100,000 Titans. The strongest among them were the super-clustered beings, while the weakest ones, the Level 9 galactic beings.

The number of super-clustered beings was 10,001.

It just showed how powerful this species was. Overall, they were many times stronger than humans.

“Leoux, kill all the super-clustered beings, retrieve and grind their souls into fragments.”

Upon boarding the mothership and capturing the 100,000 Titans, Ling Jiu immediately issued an order. “Brainwash all the remaining Titans and send them into the Floating Island as gardeners.”

“You got it.”

Leoux was quick. It had retrieved the souls of all the 1,0001 super-clustered beings and turned them into soul fragments in no time.

Ling Jiu devoured them indiscriminately and transformed them into Dark Psionic Energy in his Inner World. He then sent the energy into his sea of consciousness to expand the Soul Nebula.

Eighty-one soul stellar units…

Eighty-two soul stellar units…

Eighty-three stellar units.

…

Time passed quickly. After absorbing the souls of 10,001 super-clustered beings, his Soul Nebula reached 91 soul stellar units.

Ninety-one was an impressive figure.

It was also a number that would put most of the Evogods to shame.

Unfortunately, Ling Jiu was still not satisfied because he was still nine soul stellar units short of his target of 100 soul stellar units.

“Where can I find more super-clustered beings now, Leoux?”

Ling Jiu took a deep breath, feeling a little tired deep down. He had devoured the souls of 50,000 super-clustered beings to expand his Soul Nebula.

Fifty thousand super-clustered beings…

He had hunted all the nearby super-clustered beings. Now, where could he go to find more super-clustered beings?

“Thre’s no hurry,” Leoux said. “As I said before, Dolanos has been to many places, and I have seen many surviving Titans. Some of them were willing to follow him, but some of them refused. We can find those Titans that have refused to join him.”

“Huh?” Ling Jiu’s eyes lit up.

“There are over one hundred thousand of them, and they definitely live near Olympus,” Leoux said. “With the speed of the Leoux, we can completely capture all those Titans in a week.”

“Let’s go, then.”

…

Earth and Olympus were connected by a wormhole.

Olympus was not in the Milky Way. Leoux did not know which galaxy it was in, though.

However, one thing was certain; it was close to the Andromeda Galaxy.

After the remnants of the Caius Titans escaped, most of them had fled to the star field around Andromeda.

With the navigation capability of the Caius Titans, they could not make it far in just 5,000 years. So they must be somewhere near the Andromeda Galaxy.

A week later, Leoux descended on the nearest planet.

This planet had less than an ideal environment. It was mountainous, with relatively few plains and vegetation, completely unlike an ideally habitable planet like Earth.

Despite that, there was a group of Titans living on this planet.

“There are thirty-eight Caius Titans on this planet. They all escaped from the Andromeda Galaxy. Among them, there are over 400 super-clustered beings.”

“Capture them all.”

Over an hour later, the Titan who had escaped to this planet had all been captured. Leoux then moved on to the next planet.

…

“There are over two thousand six hundred Titans staying on this planet.”

“So few of them? Capture.”

…

Ling Jiu and Leoux followed the information left by Dolanos, going around to capture all the Titans they could find.

He killed all the super-clustered beings, shredded their souls, and sent them into the sea of consciousness.

The remaining Titans were all brainwashed and sent to the Floating Island as gardeners.

Two months later, Leoux arrived on the last planet.

“This was the last planet that Dolanos found with surviving Titans. The number is about forty-eight thousand, of which over five thousand two hundred are super-clustered beings.”

“Take them all.”

Two hours later, all the Titans on this planet were also captured.

With excitement, Ling Jiu entered the special training room on the Leoux. He sped up the time flow and started absorbing the soul fragments.

His Soul Nebula expanded once again.

97 soul stellar units.

98 souls stellar units.

99 soul stellar units.

After some time, the Soul Nebula finally broke the 100 mark. Ling Jiu was extremely excited about it.

He had achieved the goal that he had set, and the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution could finally enter the next stage. He could be happier.

“There are still soul fragments left. Do you want to continue, Ling Jiu?”

“There are? Let’s continue, then.”

Passing the 100 mark did not mean that the Soul Nebula had to stop the expansion.

In fact, it had limits on how large it could grow.

Since there were still soul fragments left, Ling Jiu certainly did not want them to go to waste. He was more than happy to let the Soul Nebula continue to expand.

After all, the larger the Soul Nebula, the higher its potential.

101 soul stellar units.

102 soul stellar units.

103 soul stellar units.

“Well, the soul fragments have finally been exhausted.” Leoux’s voice came, and Ling Jiu stopped devouring.

“The Soul Nebula has stabilized at 103 soul stellar units. Congratulations!”

“103 soul stellar units? Not half bad at all,” Leoux said. “Throughout the entire history of the Evogods, few of them could reach the level of one hundred and three stellar units. You can now enter the second stage of the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution.”

Ling Jiu nodded, and then curiously asked, “Which Evogod had the largest Soul Nebula in history, and how large was it, Leoux?”

“Huh? Are you thinking of having a friendly match with it?” Leoux shook his head with a smile. “The Evogods might have perished, but they at last had an eighty million-year history of development behind them. This has not taken into account the sped-up time the Evogods spent near the white holes that they had occupied. Besides, the Evogods were once the apex species, the civilization that stood at the pinnacle of the universe. The geniuses born of such a species are not something we can fathom. Yen Monti had the largest Soul Nebula in the history of the Evogods, with ten thousand and eighty-one soul stellar units. The second place came close at nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven soul stellar units.”

“Ten thousand and eighty one?” Ling Jiu was stunned. “Could it get larger than this?”

“Yeah, how else could it break the record of the Evogods?” Leoux said. “Yen Monti’s Soul Nebula was so massive that the Soul Black Hole that it formed was also the largest among all the Evogods.”

“Yen Monti was second to none. Considering how powerful its soul was, it should have attained immortality.”

“But the strange thing is, Yen Monti has died.”

“It has died?” Ling Jiu was shocked.

“Yeah, it has died.” Leoux nodded slightly. “No one knows exactly how it died. But there are

“What rumors?” Ling Jiu asked.

“It is said that after Yen Monti completed the Eight Laws of Black Hole Evolution, it wanted to refine the entire universe with its soul to become a cosmic consciousness. But it encountered a backlash and died,” Leoux said. “Of course, it is just a rumor. No one knows if that is true. But a soul as strong as that, even if without physical self-cultivation and comprehension of the laws, it could still be the most powerful and unbeatable being in the universe.”
