The woman looked closely at Blithe, who was still deep in thought. She seemed to be waiting for Blithe to notice her.
"If I'm right, then it's possible that this already happened when I fought those guys, or..." Blithe muttered in gibberish.
This continued for a while—Blithe talking endlessly to himself as the woman stood there for hours. However, it seemed the woman ran out of patience. A vein appeared on her forehead, then she flew toward Blithe and threw a punch at his head.
~Bam~
"Ow!... Who is it?!" Blithe said while caressing the bulge on his head.
When he raised his head, Blithe saw a naked woman. He was flustered by it.
"Wha... wha... Why are you not wearing anything?!" Blithe was surprised by the sudden appearance of the naked woman. He also took in her figure—her body was thin and curved, her chin was pointy. Her face was as smooth as white jade. Her hair was magma-red, crashing over her shoulders. She also had honey-sweet lips. They were lilac soft, and her blossom-like cheeks and butt were well-rounded. Her chest was so big that it looked like Mount Everest.
Blithe swallowed his saliva as he looked at her body and face.
"My name's... This beauty is a devil," his voice trembled a bit as he spoke.
Everything about her felt like it came straight out of a novel. This was the first time Blithe had ever seen a beauty like this.
Even the most beautiful in the entire Omniverse could not rival this kind of marvelous beauty.
The woman only smiled at Blithe, then turned her head and gazed toward the white planet. Without another word, she went toward the white planet.
Blithe noticed that the woman wanted him to follow her, so he did.
As the woman and Blithe approached the white planet, its protection deactivated as the woman passed by. Blithe remained silent as he watched.
"It's really white, and those strings of colors are only secondary and nothing more," Blithe said in a low voice.
The red-haired woman heard him and simply smiled. Her smile was so beautiful that it could topple an empire without difficulty.
Blithe, who had been calm, couldn't help but be stunned by this. If not for his immovable Dao heart, who knows what he would have done. Even so, he knew he couldn’t do anything since the woman was far more powerful than him. Like an obedient child, he remained silent, a bit afraid of angering her.
As they entered the atmosphere of the white planet, Blithe was shocked by what he saw inside—it was full of life. Lush forests, rivers that looked like soaring dragons, and mountains so massive they couldn't even be compared to a sun.
The animals here were all mythical creatures—even a damn ant was so strong that even a Celestial Star Realm cultivator would probably get obliterated just from its sheer power.
Everything here was bizarre—even a single stone was a supreme-tier material that many people would kill to obtain.
The red-haired woman and Blithe roamed for a while. When they reached their destination, Blithe saw a temple. It looked very simple—no decorations, no protection. Just an old temple.
But he knew this was no ordinary temple. The materials it was made of were mysterious, and even its pillars emitted both creation and chaos Qi.
When they landed, Blithe saw the entrance of the temple. In the corner of the entrance, there was a 3-meter statue.
It depicted a human in a meditative pose. It looked like a monk, but different—its right hand held a universe, while its left hand held a bubble.
Blithe couldn't help but ask, "What are we doing here?"
"Watch," the red-haired woman replied.
She continued toward the entrance, and Blithe followed.
~Thump~
If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
Blithe was nervous, wondering what could possibly be inside. Countless scenarios ran through his mind.
The woman chuckled, as if she knew exactly what he was thinking.
She stopped right at the gate of the entrance. The gate was carved like a painting, each image depicting a history. Blithe couldn't understand it—every time he tried, he felt dizzy just from looking at it.
The doorknob was an animal head figure. Blithe was surprised—he didn't recognize the animal.
Remember, Blithe had trillions of years of experience. He had seen all types of animals, herbs, plants, and species that the Omniverse had to offer.
But this was the first time he had ever seen an animal like this. It had eight horns circling its head, and its pupils were vastly different—even a dragon didn't have this. It had cross-shaped pupils.
As confused as Blithe was, the red-haired woman started to move.
She lifted her left hand slightly, then opened her palm. Thousands of runes suddenly appeared, forming into a formation array.
~Shua~
All of a sudden, the cross-eyed animal's eyes lit up. It opened its mouth and started to devour the formation array.
~Crunch~ ~Crunch~
When it finished eating, it let out a ferocious roar. Its roar resounded throughout the white planet. Every living being that heard it trembled in fear—no one dared to come out.
~Xing~ ~Xing~
The temple suddenly lit up. The carvings on the temple and the gate changed into a key.
~eeeccckkk~
The gate opened slowly in a dramatic manner. Even Blithe couldn't help but clap in amazement. This was the first time he had seen such a dramatic entrance. Even more shocking was the fact that the temple itself was the key. If he were an adventurer searching for the entrance key, he wouldn't have been able to find it even in a million years.
~Whooosssh~
When the gate opened, an enormous energy gushed out from the entrance. Blithe’s long black hair and the red-haired woman’s hair fluttered under the intense energy trying to escape.
When it was over, the two entered the temple.
Blithe was met with a breathtaking sight—an enormous hall appeared in front of him. Statues, 50 meters tall, lined the sides, all of them pointing their weapons at the center of the hall.
There, he saw a coffin. It was as dark as charcoal, yet it shimmered like a starry sky. He didn’t know what material it was made of, but he was amazed by it.
The red-haired woman slowly walked toward the coffin. Blithe noticed that in her left hand was a blue key.
Even though he was amazed, he knew he had to be cautious. Anything could happen, and his life could end here.
Just because he was immortal, with an infinite lifespan, didn't mean no one could kill him.
The woman walked closer to the coffin. When she got there, she stopped an inch away. She gently touched the coffin. The blue key in her left hand started to float. It shattered into five pieces, and each piece was shaped like a rod.
Slowly but surely, each rod inserted itself into a small hole in the coffin, locking it in place.
"Come," the red-haired woman said.
Blithe hesitated. Should he go or not? Countless scenarios kept popping into his mind.
"Is it because of that 'energy'?" Blithe thought to himself.
But the red-haired woman wasn’t taking no for an answer. She grabbed him using her spirit Qi.
A spirit hand formed and dragged Blithe to where the red-haired woman was.
"Hand," the woman ordered. Her eyes burned like flames that could incinerate anything.
Blithe sighed. He had no choice.
"Here," he said, reaching out his hand.
The woman suddenly took a knife and made a small cut on his wrist.
Blithe gritted his teeth.
F*ck! What kind of knife is this?!
Blood dripped onto the coffin. The coffin started to glow, runes forming a star-like pattern.
~Zuuuuung~
A loud sound echoed as the coffin slowly opened.
Beads of sweat dripped down Blithe’s forehead.
What immovable Dao heart? Damn, I’m gonna have a heart attack from this!
As the coffin fully opened, Blithe didn’t expect to see what was inside.
"A bubble? We'll, that was anticlimactic," Blithe said as he sighed in relief.
~Pfffttt~
The woman suddenly laughed. Her laugh was so loud that Blithe was starting to get embarrassed.
"Ahem. We'll, what is this bubble, and who are you?" Blithe coughed as he tried to change the topic.
"Give... me... hahaha... a minute," the woman said while laughing.
.......
Five minutes passed.
The woman coughed as she was embarrassed too, but she couldn't help it—pranking someone was something she hadn't done in a long time.
"Apologies. My name is Bane. As you can see, I am the guardian of this planet, but I'm imprisoned in a cube, so the palm that you were fighting earlier was my split will," the woman answered.
"Then..." Blithe shook his head as he was about to ask the woman how the hell she got imprisoned if she was this strong. "What about this bubble, and is the legend true?"
"What legend?" The red-haired woman asked, as she didn't know what he was talking about.
"The book that holds all of the knowledge, even about the realm above the Primordial Chaos cultivation realm?"
"I don't know what you are talking about, but if you are talking about the book, then that one is true," the woman tilted her head.
Blithe didn't expect it was true, and he was about to ask where it was, but the woman put her finger on his heart and said:
"My, my, it seems you are experiencing split souls—not one, but two, huh..." she slowly said.
"Did you know it?" Blithe asked. He was having trouble with this since it acted on its own, and he couldn't control it completely.
The woman raised her head and nodded at Blithe.
Blithe saw this and was about to ask how to deal with it, but the woman quickly spoke.
"Indeed, I saw it once. It was a very long time ago. But this kind of thing is not something I can cure since it's about you, your soul, and the 'rules of all,' so I can't do much about it. But I'm gonna give you some advice..." She took away her finger and stepped back slightly. Her hands were now behind her back as she posed like a cute teenager.
"Accept who you are, and maybe you will find something interesting," she stated and gently smiled at Blithe.
"Accept who I am..." Blithe muttered.
"Anyway, enough of that," she said as she pointed her finger at the bubble and explained:
"As for the bubble that you're about to ask about, this bubble is no ordinary bubble.
Because this bubble is the one containing and regulating the infinite universe..." The woman suddenly dropped a bomb.
Blithe was shocked... A bubble, you say!?
"So you are telling me that this bubble is regulating all universes!?" Blithe asked.
"Let me finish what I'm trying to say," the woman was quite annoyed as she didn't like someone interrupting her.
"Sorry," Blithe apologized.
"Good," the red-haired woman nodded.
"This bubble is called the Bubbleverse. Like I said earlier, this bubble contains the universe, but this one is empty—not because something bad happened to it, but just because that's the way it is.
And what did you say again? The one who found it???"
"If someone found it, then they can make one wish," Blithe quickly replied. He was intrigued by the Bubbleverse that the woman was talking about.
"Yes, that one. It is similar because if someone finds or holds this bubble, they will become 'omnipotent' and join the ranks of the Holders."
"Holders?" Blithe questioned.
But the red-haired woman didn't answer and continued to explain.
"You might be thinking, 'If it's empty, then how are you gonna create the Omniverse?' It's simple—the bubble will teach you that. Countless years have passed, and many tried to find this. With each passing time, the legend changed until it became laughable, and you are lucky to have obtained this and..." the woman stated.
"Me..." the woman said in a low voice.
"And?" Blithe didn't hear the rest—not because he was getting deaf or something, but because the woman was suppressing his realm until it became a mortal realm, so he couldn't hear a damn thing.
"Also... there are many Bubbleverses." The red-haired woman suddenly stopped as the ground shook.
"Hmm?" The woman was confused, but when she looked at the ceiling, she saw something—and so did Blithe.
"!?!?!?"
A huge sword appeared, flying straight at them.
