Chapter 362: 25 Patch Great Area - 362
Zhou Fan spent 5 years with Feng Liu and Lu Zhong, before once again departing from the cosmic sect. This time, he left Hei Ren behind.
"Sorry about this, but you won't be able to cultivate while I'm moving and you'd probably be a burden." Zhou Fan said as he patted Hei Ren's shoulder.
"I don't mind. It's been a while since I've fought others anyway. I'll be fine." Hei Ren said.
"Alright. Good luck." Zhou Fan said as he began to fly away.
Soon, Zhou Fan appeared outside of the Zhou supercluster. He was excited to explore the wider universe. Unlike before, his speed was unbelievably faster. Going to and from the purple star sea would take merely 3 or so months.
He felt that he would even be able to draw out a region of the universe.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Fan departed at top speed. His first stop would be the purple star sea.
As calculated, the trip took 3 months. He soon arrived outside of the purple star sea, and did not stop moving until he arrived at the first galaxy.
Unsurprisingly, he found a single lesser dao creation realm star god. They had likely all broken through that realm, and moved around different galaxies.
He did not know if even a single one from the first generation remained, but it was extremely unlikely.
He did not bother the star god and simply went to his personal planet. Nothing had really changed at all, despite the passing of so much time. It was just as Zhou Fan had predicted.
He spent nearly a year simply relaxing at the planet and taking in its beauty.
As he did not want to delay his journey too much, he soon moved out and flew towards another large area.
The next few places that he visited were ones that he had already been too. He had already explored 163 large areas, so getting to new ones would take a little bit of time.
Luckily, it did not take long before Zhou Fan found another large area. This one could actually be called another supercluster, as it looked somewhat similar to the Zhou supercluster. There were many galaxies and a few galaxy clusters. The biggest difference was that there was far less empty space.
Zhou Fan went inside and explored the galaxy clusters, but there was only a single great attractor in the entire supercluster. It seemed that his Zhou supercluster did stand out. The galaxy clusters in this supercluster were much smaller and mostly the same shape.
It was clear even from afar that what held them together were large blackhole's. They were comparable in size to the bigger ones that he had seen in the forbidden land.
Soon, he left that supercluster and continued exploring. Over the course of nearly 20,000 years, he had visited 5,000 large areas. Each one had its own specialty, and each one was extremely large.
As Zhou Fan added the 5,000th to the map, he found that the ones he had marked so far seemed to form a large region in space.
Zhou Fan felt that it was time for a new category of size. With the Zhou supercluster at its center, he called the surrounding 5,000 large area's a filament.
The Zhou Filament.
Despite establishing the Zhou filament, he still could not see the edge of the universe. He even began to ask himself if there was an end.
Despite his questions, he was determined to continue his exploration of the universe. He left the Zhou filament and continued to map the surroundings.
For some reason, he felt as if he was finally making major progress. It was as if he had finally explored at least a single percentage of the universe.
After nearly 30,000 years, he mapped out another filament. They would not need to have exactly 5,000 large areas, but that was the least amount required.
Zhou Fan figured that once he mapped the entire universe, he could make distinctions between areas more clearly, and did not worry about it too much.
There were a lot of interesting things in the universe. Zhou Fan stood not too far from one of them.
The area in front of him was the largest that he had ever seen. It was actually 5 times bigger than the now second place. However, there was barely anything within it.
There were only a few large patches of dirt rotating around a star-like great attractor, and a couple of stars rotating around the patches of dirt. Although they seemed small from afar, that was mostly due to the size of the large area.
Each patch of dirt was at least bigger than a galaxy. A near infinite amount of humans could live on each one, especially if it was treated like a planet.
He could just imagine countless cities and houses covering nearly the entirety of one of the patches. The number of humans that could live on it truly could not be estimated.
Zhou Fan decided to name it the 25 patch great area since there were 25 patches of dirt. He almost cringed at his naming skills, but he had never claimed he was good, so nobody could put it against him.
He decided to remember this area as a possible place for a large number of cultivators to live.
If he ever covered it in his mortal dao and allowed it to grow, it was unknown what heights it would reach.
Despite having a great interest in the 25 patch great area, Zhou Fan moved on after seeing its great attractor, which was at the middle levels of the true god realm.
Zhou Fan wondered if he would ever find a large area with an outer world level great attractor, but that was unlikely as he had never even seen a great attractor in the high level of the true god realm.
After around 30,000 years, Zhou Fan marked in another filament, making three. Despite finding so much, his thirst for exploration and adventure had not been quenched, and he continued to move forward.
Chapter 363: Changes in the Mortal Dao - 363
Zhou Fan continued to explore the universe, marking down any large areas he came across and their great attractor.
It took him around 30,000 years to explore what he marked as a filament. Before long, he had marked down 5 filaments, and his desire to explore was gradually calming down.
He decided to take a brief break from exploring and attempt to expand his mortal dao. He had not done so since he broke through, and he felt that he would be able to expand it much farther than before.
Zhou Fan found a random large area and sat down on what resembled a planet. He crossed his legs and connected to his mortal dao.
He could feel that his mortal dao was big, but it was not nearly big enough. Zhou Fan felt that way even more as he mapped out larger areas of the universe.
His first goal was to cover all three galaxy clusters. With his current strength, he felt that he should be able to easily cover such a large area.
Unsurprisingly, all three galaxy clusters were soon covered. Then, surprisingly, even the entirety of the Zhou supercluster was covered.
Zhou Fan stopped his mortal dao's expansion once it reached that point. Covering any more would be covering pointless space.
Instead, he decided to try to cover the entire purple star sea.
As he watched it expand, his jaw nearly dropped. Without any issue, the entire purple star sea was covered.
Even Zhou Fan had not expected such a large change. As he had not covered any area in any of the other large areas, he needed to return to the Zhou filament to continue expanding his mortal dao, something that he did not even hesitate to do.
Although he had traveled far, it would not take that long to once again return to the same area. After all, he had not been traveling in a straight line, but instead a spiral that extended outwards.
In his mind, it did not take long to return to the Zhou filament. From there, it did not take long to arrive at the great earth area. This was a place that Zhou Fan had always found interesting.
He put some of his mortal dao inside of it, and it soon expanded to cover the entire great earth area.
Like the Zhou supercluster and the purple star sea, the great attractor in the center of the great earth area did not even react.
Zhou Fan covered the forbidden land and 3 other large areas before he finally felt some pressure and stopped expanding his mortal dao.
Unlike usual, he prevented anything within the 7 large areas from expanding. It would cause too much destruction to allow them to do so. Instead, he planned on personally dealing with such things.
He went back to the Zhou supercluster and felt that having so much empty space between the galaxy clusters was pointless.
As if he was a god, which he essentially was, he instantly put the 3 great attractors under his control, preventing them from affecting anything.
He then spread out the many galaxies around the entire Zhou supercluster.
Within one galaxy, Ying Xiong and everyone from the cosmic sect felt as if an overwhelming power was covering them and everything around them.
As they looked around, the far away space began to shift and move.
Nearly everyone was panicking inside. Ying Xiong was the only one who was completely calm. He stood with his hands behind his back and sighed.
"You truly are almighty." Ying Xiong mumbled under his breath.
With Zhou Fan's outer world realm power, it only took a thousand years to put everything into place.
To mortals, many generations would have passed, but to any powerful cultivators, it was as if a single year had passed.
Zhou Fan looked upon the Zhou supercluster. In those thousand years, he had not only moved things around, but allowed many things to expand in size.
The Zhou galaxy had been taken out of the Zhou galaxy cluster and placed in the upper center of the entire supercluster.
It was thousands of times bigger than before, and the planets in it were also thousands of times bigger.
The Zhou world was now especially huge. As a single planet, it was bigger than any galaxies before Zhou Fan had expanded them.
Even lesser dao creation realm cultivators would struggle to explore it all.
The 3 galaxy clusters had changed as well, but Zhou Fan had not changed their base properties.
The tree-like galaxy cluster, which was once condensed and golden, had spread out far. Its trunk was countless times larger and its branches were no longer confined to a certain area.
Instead, its branches were long and moved around the entire Zhou supercluster.
The silver river galaxy cluster was no longer so small, and its river of galaxies moved around the entire Zhou supercluster.
As for the Zhou galaxy cluster, it still had the same golden spine-like look , but was many times larger.
Altogether, the Zhou supercluster was much more beautiful, similar to a painting. The only issue was that, with so much of the Zhou supercluster being taken up, it was natural that there were large spaces in between galaxies that did not look right.
In order to change that, Zhou Fan would need to create galaxies, something that he did not believe he had the ability to do.
It would be one thing to have the materials to create a galaxy, and another to create one from nothing. He was not nearly strong enough.
The Zhou galaxy was so much bigger than any other that it did not matter if there were galaxies near it.
As he finished designing and expanding the Zhou supercluster, he began to make its space much stronger. He did not know how much more time would pass before someone was capable of breaking through the final layer of space.
He spent a lot of time and Qi strengthening the space, but after nearly 100,000 years, he managed to make the space so strong that only a 3rd level true god would be able to break the final layer without Chaos Qi or immense talent. This was under the expectation that the 3rd level true god was someone with great talent.
Ying Xiong would be able to do it at the second level of the true god realm, but he would need a long time to reach that far.
