Among the four of them, His Highness Long Wu was the strongest on the surface. Just his 30 million-kilometer combat body was enough to surpass everyone. Even in the upper district of the Divine Palace, he was powerful.
Of course, if Lin Feng used the advanced planetary Laws, things would be different.
Normally speaking, the stronger one was, the more authority they had. However, it was somewhat different for the team formed by the four of them. Even though Long Wu was the strongest, Lin Feng could clearly sense that Raymond was actually the one in charge.
When Raymond made plans, Long Wu usually would not object, and Yu Jing also went along like she expected it. This surprised Lin Feng a little.
Raymond smiled and said, “Your Highness Lin Feng, you might not know this, but the three of us have actually worked together many times before, so we’re already familiar with each other. This time, I was the one who invited Your Highness Lin Feng to join our team. That’s why His Highness Long Wu and His Highness Yu Jing are a little worried, and wanted to test you for a bit.”
Lin Feng came to a realization. So Raymond, Long Wu, and Yu Jing were the true “iron triangle”, while Lin Feng was the superfluous one. No wonder Long Wu and Yu Jing listened to Raymond. The three of them had teamed up countless times before, and it seemed like those team-ups were all very successful.
Perhaps Long Wu was very strong, but Raymond was good at strategizing, formulating plans, and making arrangements. Lin Feng had been invited to the team by Raymond. The fact that Long Wu and Yu Jing had only tested him and did not object was actually also due to Raymond’s special status in the team.
Although Raymond and the other two were the “iron triangle”, Lin Feng was not displeased. Instead, he actually felt that this team had more potential. The reason was very simple. Raymond and the others had already worked together many times, and it had gone smoothly every time. Moreover, they were very vigilant towards a new member, and had to test him first. From another angle, this also showed how much they paid attention to a new member, and would not want to destabilize the team because of a new member.
This kind of mature and stable team was also what Lin Feng hoped to join. At the very least, he did not have to worry about teammates backstabbing each other at the critical juncture. There were simply too many such cultivators in the North River Galaxy. They could do anything for benefits, and promises were worthless to them.
Hence, after staying in the North River Galaxy for so many years, it was not that Lin Feng had never known other cultivators, but that the only one he truly trusted was Venerable Vigil.
After the four of them discussed it, they actually still followed Raymond’s plan. Lin Feng also agreed to it.
Raymond’s plan was very simple. They would get to the location of the Big Bang as soon as possible, and then make new plans from there.
For this reason, Raymond had prepared a spaceship. He had even already charted the route. Lin Feng naturally had no objections. As for Long Wu and Yu Jing, they were already used to Raymond making all the arrangements.
Hence, Lin Feng and the others boarded the spaceship and began heading towards the location of the Big Bang. Of course, they passed through the spatial passage during this period of time. However, the location of the Big Bang was very special. Even traveling through the spatial passage could not allow one to reach it.
They still had to fly for a long time. Even though Raymond and the others had already bought the most advanced spaceship, it still took them three years to finally arrive at their destination.
“We’ve finally arrived at the end of the universe!”
As the spaceship gradually stopped, Lin Feng and the others also flew out.
Lin Feng looked around. He only saw that their surroundings were vacant, without even a planet. There was a deep and dark region in the distance.
No light seemed capable of penetrating that dark region. It could not even be seen with the naked eye, and could only be sensed with mental power. It was like a black hole, but appeared even more terrifying than one.
This was the end of the universe!
The universe also had an end. Although it was huge and vast, it was not truly infinite. This dark region was the end of the universe, also known as the cosmic membrane.
The Big Bang was explosions within the cosmic membrane. In the spaceship, Lin Feng had already heard Raymond, Long Wu, and the others explain the general knowledge regarding the Big Bang.
The cosmic membrane was the end of the universe, and the entire universe was expanding constantly, like a “living thing”. The Big Bang was the expansion of the cosmic membrane. With every expansion, the universe would produce many new substances.
Most of these new substances were actually substances devoured when the universe expanded. They would not be produced in the universe.
Lin Feng was also very surprised when he first heard about this secret of the universe.
“So this is what the cosmic membrane looks like. I wonder what’s beyond the cosmic membrane?”
Lin Feng felt a little emotional. Who would have thought that there was also an end to the vast universe, and that it was constantly expanding like a living thing?
“Heh, I’ve heard that what lies outside the universe is Chaos. The universe we are in is called an Origin Universe. There are many Origin Universes in the Chaos, and some terrifying experts can freely enter and exit the Origin Universes.”
“Chaos? The Origin Universe?”
This was also the first time Lin Feng had heard of these.
“I only heard His Majesty the Divine King mention it once. I’m not too sure about the details. In short, without becoming a universal lifeform, one cannot leave the Origin Universe by themselves.”
“Cannot leave by themselves? What if they have someone’s help?”
An idea came to Lin Feng. He seemed to have understood the implications in Raymond’s words.
“That’s right. Your Highness Lin Feng is really smart. If they have someone’s help, they can also enter and exit the Origin Universe freely. However, such an expert would be beyond our imagination.”
Lin Feng nodded. The Origin Universe, Chaos, and so on were too far away from him. No matter how much he learned about them now, there was not much of a point.
“Someone is coming!”
Long Wu suddenly said. The four of them immediately became on guard.
Indeed, a spaceship flew over from afar. Three cultivators alighted from the spaceship. All of them had powerful auras, not inferior to Lin Feng and the other three at all.
“They’re advanced planetary cultivators!”
Long Wu’s expression was solemn. These three people did not seem weak either. One of them even made Long Wu sense a trace of threat.
The three of them also looked at Lin Feng and the others from afar with great vigilance as well. However, the three of them did not stay for long. Instead, they retreated far away, maintaining a distance from Lin Feng and the other three.
“Looks like many cultivators will rush here one after another. We’ll take an advantageous position first. This place is too close to the cosmic membrane. Once the Big Bang occurs, we’ll be the first to bear the brunt of it. None of us will survive it. We have to leave this place.”
Everyone nodded as well. The universe was still very calm now, so they naturally did not have to worry. However, once the Big Bang started, at such a close distance, even a Divine King would not be able to withstand the impact of the Big Bang and be in danger of death, let alone mere advanced planetary lifeforms like themselves.
Hence, Lin Feng and the other three kept retreating until they were about a light-year away. Only when they could not even sense the cosmic membrane did they stop.
