The young hydra curiously looked around as the supreme beast led him around the room. Behind them both, Chin Hong followed silently.
While Chin Hong was the 5th strongest supreme beast, the man leading the young hydra was the 3rd strongest.
Although they were both at the 10th level of the void traversing realm, Chin Hong had absolutely zero confidence in killing the supreme beast war general himself, Hei Nan.
Besides the supreme beast king himself, Hei Nan was the oldest supreme beast alive. He had led so many wars that the number could not be counted on the hands of a hundred octopuses.
Within the large open room, there were 5 sections. The one they were just in was the instruction area. That was where all knowledge and theoretical things were taught.
Besides that, there was the sleeping section, the training section, with lots of room and heavy things all around, the battle section, where all spars were fought, and the martial art section, where martial arts and such things were taught.
The hydra asked about the rooms and the hallway before the room, and Hei Nan said that they were rooms that led to teleportation arrays, as well as some storage.
The tour did not take long at all, and Hei Nan led the young hydra to the sleeping section once he was finished with the tour.
"The young master has traveled all the way here, as well as used a teleportation array. You must be tired. Please, take a rest and we will start tomorrow." Hei Nan said.
The young hydra nodded as he fell asleep on one of the carpeted sections of the room.
As he fell asleep, Hei Nan and Chin Hong walked around the facility. They spoke about various matters for a couple of hours before stopping in front of the training area.
They both watched as the young supreme beasts trained. Although they all showed great talent, there were three that stood out.
One was a young lion with an icy blue body that seemed to give off coldness.
Another was a blue pig that gave off a feeling of lightning.
The last was a large bat that seemed to have a darkness affinity.
This facility was specially made for the young hydra, but it was also used to train the young hydra's future comrades.
Each one of them was extremely talented and guaranteed to reach the soul formation realm if no lethal accidents happened.
Chin Hong nodded as he spoke. "It is time for me to leave. Remember, the hydra will be the savior of our supreme beast race. If need be, sacrifice all of these supreme beasts' lives, as well as your own before letting him get scratched."
Without a second passing, Hei Nan responded. "Naturally. I know his worth just as much, if not more than you."
"I'm just making sure." Chin Hong chuckled as he walked away. He then entered the hallway and left through a different teleportation array than before.
Hei Nan looked at one of the walls solemnly. There were many things that Chin Hong was unaware of. But nothing was left out of Hei Nan's information.
As Hei Nan turned his gaze to the sleeping young hydra, his look of solemness became even deeper.
—-----------------------------
In a red galaxy, in the Zhou galaxy cluster, on a planet near the edge of the galaxy, a world with plants and trees silently existed.
Many millions of years ago, plants, trees, and rivers were born on it. However, no true life had been born.
This planet was the first one that Zhou Fan had ever touched with his mortal dao outside of the Zhou Galaxy.
On this planet, a leaf fell from a tree, slowly descending to the ground. In a few seconds, it reached the ground and stayed there.
Suddenly, the leaf moved a bit. Yet, there was no wind anywhere near the leaf.
After a moment, the leaf slightly moved again. Then, a moving thing moved from under the leaf.
It was an ant. To be more specific, an ant queen. A living, breathing, eating thing.
It moved around the ground, living.
Not too long later, on another planet, this one filled with sand as if it was an endless desert, a bit of sand fell and formed a hole. From within that hole came an insect with three pairs of wings and a thin body.
It was some sort of dragonfly.
On another planet, this one made up of an endless ocean, a tiny plankton moved around the bottom of the ocean.
These three planets, all within a somewhat small time frame, gained their first life.
After millions and millions of years, Zhou Fan's seeds of life had begun to germinate.
Meanwhile, on one of the few planets outside of the Zhou solar system that had a name, two people were playing chess.
They were the only living beings on this planet. Out of all the beings in the Zhou galaxy, both of them were in the top ten.
Both of them had reached the lesser dao creation realm long ago.
As they played their game of chess, they spoke.
"I heard the human race gave birth to an incredible talent." One of them said. By her looks, it was clear that she was a celestial.
"I heard something about that as well." The man across from her said. He too was a celestial.
"I was thinking. Should we intervene at all?" The celestial woman asked. She was conflicted.
"You know that our relationship with the human race is good. We naturally shouldn't hurt the kid." The man said. "Regardless, we have all the time in the world. Even if he reaches the 10th level of the space shattering realm, it doesn't matter. Everyone below the lesser dao creation realm is an ant."
The woman nodded in agreement.
"At the very least, we can observe his personality and protect him from other lesser dao creation realm cultivators. If he proves to be unlikeable, we can simply stop guarding him. The others won't be able to stop themselves from killing him at that point." The woman added.
