Wang Teng sat alone in his room with his mind in turmoil.
The sudden thought that had crossed his mind startled him and caught him off his guard.
Frightening!
Terrifying!
In fact… it was absurd!
Was it possible for the Inner Cosmos to evolve into a real universe?
Wang Teng didn't know and didn't dare to think further.
He felt like his fundamental beliefs were shaken and his worldview was on the verge of collapsing.
If they were truly born, raised, cultivated within the Inner Cosmos of a formidable martial warrior, and their entire lives unfolded within it…
What was the meaning of their existence?
They were like ants struggling within a survival zone constructed by a giant. There was a profound sense of insignificance and misery.
"Sigh!"
After some time, he let out a long sigh and calmed down.
He mustn't think about it anymore. If he continued, his resolution might collapse.
Wang Teng made a concerted effort to rein in his thoughts and redirect his focus to his Inner Cosmos. After his advancement in the Chaotic Uncharted, he encountered a slew of events so he didn't have the time to study his Inner Cosmos properly.
He studied his body and observed the changes in his Inner Cosmos.
There was a black hole in the middle of his Inner Cosmos. It was continuously devouring fragments of stars from the surrounding space. These were the fragments left behind after the explosions of the Force constellations.
There was also a halo surrounding the black hole. It was the manifestation of his spiritual power.
His spiritual power had merged with his Force in a special way.
Wang Teng sensed it carefully. His Nine Treasures Pagoda was nestled within the black hole. He could summon it out with a mere thought.
At the same time, there were divine flames, Water Of Netherworld, Nether Frost, and void mayflies, among others, floating around the Inner Cosmos in his body. It was no different from when he stored them in his consciousness.

These were all his assets. There was no room for mishaps.
There was also the Space Fragment and the Devour Space. They exited within his Inner Cosmos yet seemed to operate independently.
This was a weird feeling!
It couldn't be explained with words.
Wang Teng didn't dwell on it. After all, they couldn't run away.
Hmm, is the transformation completed? Wang Teng wondered to himself. Suddenly, he remembered something and went into the Devour Space.
Within the dim expanse of the Devour Space, a golden light sphere and a cyan ball of flame hovered in the air.
Elizabeth, Little White, and the Lightning Spirit were watching at the side.
They got injured and exhausted much of their energy to protect Wang Teng in the Chaotic Uncharted.
Naturally, Wang Teng wouldn't treat them badly. He gave the best healing pills to Elizabeth and Little White.
Their injuries healed quickly as they weren't severely injured.
As for the Lightning Spirit, it didn't need any extra rewards. It had absorbed enough lightning calamity and now resembled a chubby little creature. It looked quite amusing and comical.
"Master!"
Elizabeth and Little White greeted Wang Teng when they saw him.
Wang Teng nodded. He asked, "When did this start?"
"Just recently. We only noticed their abnormality less than ten minutes ago," Elizabeth said.
Wang Teng didn't probe further. He looked at Round Ball and the Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion's spheres of light.
Were they going to come out together?
Round Ball's golden light sphere gave off a dazzling golden radiance.
The Metal Armor Flaming Scorpion was no less impressive. Green flames similar to the Emerald Glazed Flame swept across the sky. The impact was astonishing.

As time slowly passed in anticipation, Round Ball's golden light sphere suddenly emitted cracking sounds. It seemed to be on the verge of shattering.
An endless stream of golden light burst forth from within, illuminating almost half of the Devour Space.
Wang Teng squinted and looked ahead.
Boom!
An explosion occurred and the golden light sphere exploded. They turned into countless golden specks of light that scattered and drifted down like a shower.
A small figure appeared. It was Round Ball.
"Hey, everyone is here. Are you here to welcome your Mister Round Ball?" Round Ball laughed when it saw everyone.
"Look at you." Wang Teng was caught between laughter and tears.
The moment it opened its mouth, he knew that it was still the same old Round Ball.
Mister Round Ball?
Why don't you call yourself master instead?
"Hahaha…" Round Ball didn't care about Wang Teng's complaints. It burst into laughter and flew over excitedly. "Wang Teng, look, I've advanced to the heaven stage. I'm a heaven-stage intelligent lifeform now."
"Alright, I can tell. Don't be so excited." Wang Teng looked at it helplessly.
Why was it so excited?
He wasn't even this excited when he advanced to the cosmos stage!
"Aren't you happy for me? I'm a heaven-stage intelligent lifeform now. Do you know how rare heaven-stage intelligent lifeforms are? Can you show some appreciation?" Round Ball pouted and said excitedly.
"Alright, I understand. You're a heaven-stage intelligent lifeform now. Good, very good!" Wang Teng nodded and praised it seriously.
Round Ball was speechless.
Something didn't feel right.
It got praised but it didn't feel happy at all.
