Chapter 1494 The Transdimensional Arena! The Battle for Godhood! (Page 12)

Three chapters in one!

The so-called "hyperdimensional arena" refers to an arena set up by a higher-dimensional being that transcends the highest dimension and underlying structure.

It does not exist in any dimension within any macroscopic possibility, but is structured between the [ultimate dimension] and macroscopic possibility. Only the [ultimate] can guide others to this limited place.

The highest dimension is, in the usual sense, the dimension in which the true form of the great deity resides, which is higher than the dimension in which any world or dimension of any macroscopic possibility exists.

Embedding itself into the underlying logic and becoming an indispensable part of macroscopic possibilities is the source of the power and status of the supreme god, and also the main reason why even the great gods cannot contend with the supreme god.

Generally speaking, the supreme deity does not exist in a specific physical form; it is itself part of the entire macroscopic possibility.

It's not wrong to say that it's everywhere.

But if we must solidify a physical image...

This physical form will inevitably first appear in the underlying structure of macroscopic possibilities—a structure that transcends yet does not transcend, exists yet does not exist, and is infinitely close to the [ultimate dimension].

This is the highest dimension and ultimate point of any macroscopic possibility, a dreamlike realm that even great gods unaware of the existence of the "ultimate dimension" might not be able to reach even after spending endless years.

For any being other than the Sun Gods, the Supreme God is the ultimate limit in their understanding, the limit of all imagination.

Such a level is far too advanced for those demigods who are not even great gods; it is simply not something they should be thinking about.

In the minds of all the demigods who received the information, the Hyperdimensional Arena was a "trial" initiated by a supreme being above the great gods in some unknowable place.

All the demigods are within the scope of the "trial," with the goal of competing for a higher ranking on the superdimensional arena.

If this is just a sudden whim of some supreme being to amuse himself, or even a vile trick of watching ants fight each other to please himself.

Although all the demigods are powerless to resist, they are destined not to be as wholeheartedly preparing for battle as they are now, ambitiously striving to achieve a high enough ranking, or even to reach the position of the strongest in the superdimensional arena.

What makes them so enthusiastic!

Of course, this is also because of the existence of the superdimensional arena, which provides rewards that the demigods who achieve good rankings on the arena absolutely cannot refuse.

God's throne!

An opportunity to become a great god!

As long as there is even a sliver of thought, absolutely no demigod could resist such temptation, and would be willing to do anything, even if it meant being a moth drawn to a flame.

As for whether the opportunity is real or not?

None of the demigods doubted the authenticity of the information they received, and even if it were false, they would not hesitate to take a gamble.

Success! The great God is within reach!

No! There is also the opportunity to clash with many demigods of the same level or even stronger, thereby further improving or even strengthening one's own top-level system, and accumulating enough foundation for the future independent attempt to ascend to godhood.

As for the third possibility, it is that the entity that set up the arena harbors ill intentions towards these demigods and wants to take them all down.

Please!

This can probably be almost completely ignored.

After all, it was a supreme being above the great gods in their understanding, an irresistible force that they could never resist.

To harbor malice towards them and want to harm them is just a matter of a thought; why go to such great lengths and make such a roundabout way?

In other words, even if the Super Dimensional Arena is truly a "trap" set up for them, does that mean they can simply refuse to participate in the duel?

Think too much!

From beginning to end, they had no other choice.

At the same time, the existence of the Super Dimensional Arena is also the reason why all the demigods tacitly chose to remain silent and not reveal any information to any demigod.

Once they learned the reason, all the demigods were desperately trying to break through their limits with bloodshot eyes, causing the already increasing number of demigods to experience another surge.

If the message hadn't mentioned that interference with a demigod's normal breakthrough was forbidden, they would have gladly taken matters into their own hands and cut off the paths of those potential rivals.

Why would someone want to create more potential competitors for themselves?

Even those demigods who are confident in themselves and have exceptionally strong spirit and will, while not afraid of an increase in the number of opponents, would not actively seek to increase their own number of opponents!

……

The 9000rd era of the divine calendar.

The war of physical forms within the [Super God Universe] has ended for over 2000 epochs, and all the victorious civilizations have basically digested the gains from the war.

Similarly, the rate at which civilizations that improved themselves by taking advantage of war also returned to normal as the benefits were exhausted.

This means that the current surge of sub-gods in the chaotic starry sky has come to an end. Civilization masters who were able to break through to sub-god status by leveraging the benefits of war have basically succeeded in doing so over the past 2000 epochs.

As for the remaining civilization masters who failed to achieve a breakthrough during this period, they basically lost the ability to challenge the demigods.

Ultimately, not all demigods can eventually break through to become sub-gods. Just as many extraordinary beings never manage to cross the threshold of the Holy Realm in their entire lives, they can only perish with resentment after their lifespan of a few thousand years is exhausted.

The same applies to those sacred realms.

Those who can become demigods, or even just transform into a super-saint realm, possessing a near-infinite lifespan, are ultimately only a very small number of individuals.

Living a lifespan of millions or even hundreds of millions of years, yet still unable to cross that threshold of immortality, ultimately perishing with resentment like those below the Saintly Realm—this is the true portrayal of almost all extraordinary beings.

As for those who reach the level of demigods or even sub-gods, they no longer have the worry of dying in the conventional sense, and can have unlimited time to pursue higher levels.

But at this level, the accumulation of time no longer helps them improve their power.

Opportunity, luck, talent... and other factors that truly determine the upper limit of the extraordinary are beginning to play an increasingly important role at the immortal level.

Those with even more incredible talent, more opportunities, and more abundant fortune can still advance rapidly at the level of demigods or even sub-gods.

However, if these factors are not sufficiently present, one can experience the helplessness and sorrow of being stuck in one place for hundreds of millions of years without moving.

Time is not only not their friend, but it also strikes them so hard that they are powerless to face reality.

To give an inappropriate example.

This is like the highest level of mathematics.

If you know it, you know it; if you don't, you don't. There's no such thing as learning by doing over time.

Therefore, those demigods who also enjoyed the benefits of war and accumulated sufficient resources over these 2000-plus eras, and even reached their limits in other aspects, still failed to break through.

This already implies that their potential has been exhausted.

Without great fortune or extraordinary opportunities, demigodhood is the highest level they can reach.

If a sub-god has exhausted their potential and has no chance of becoming a great god, they can still try their luck in the superdimensional arena to achieve godhood and play a significant role at some point in the future.

Therefore, the supreme being who set up the superdimensional arena could take a few more glances at them.

Therefore, these demigods whose potential is already determined are truly not worth the supreme being's attention.

To put it bluntly, it's not good value for money.

……

By the time the war dividends had been almost exhausted, the number of newly promoted sub-gods in the [Super God Universe] had exceeded three digits.

This number sounds exaggerated, but it's not that big of a deal when compared to the overall macro possibilities.

As time goes by, new demigods will surely be born among the new life forms that are born in the future.

At least for a considerable period of time, from now into the future, the accumulated resources of the numerous civilizations in the chaotic starry sky over the years have been depleted.

It's unlikely that any new demigods will be born anytime soon.

At the same time, the chaotic period that had lasted for hundreds of millions of years for the [Ringed Serpent] also came to an end.

In the more intense wars and battles, a large number of geniuses who did not perish took off from the spot, giving birth to a "massive" number of demigod powerhouses in the Void Sea.

Many newly promoted demigods, with even greater talent and opportunities, continued their rapid advancement, catching the tail end of the chaotic period and breaking through to become quasi-god level powerhouses once again.

In just over two thousand epochs, it completed the progression between multiple major levels, becoming one of the legendary beings that the [Ring Serpent] will be remembered for in the future.

As for those powerful beings who were already demigods before the chaotic period, many of them perished in this war.

Especially the demigods, who were already on the chaotic side, were wiped out by a large number of demigods after constantly provoking more demigods and attracting too much hatred.

Among the surviving ancient demigods, the proportion who became sub-gods was quite insufficient, and the total number of interstellar sub-gods even exceeded that of the [Super God Universe].

Besides these two macro-level possibilities, the other macro-level possibilities that did not lead to large-scale wars and chaos also gave rise to a considerable number of powerful demigods.

Among them, the [True Void Sea] has given birth to the most demigods. So far, all the newly born Sun Gods have broken through to become demigods.

Their number alone reached dozens.

The number of other sub-gods besides them is no less than that of the other macroscopic possibilities.

As for the macro possibilities of the other major giants, the number of newly promoted sub-gods who have broken through is relatively small, but the overall base is not much different.

It can be said that since the rise of the Sun God Clan, after billions of years of development, the seven macroscopic possibilities have truly entered a golden age of acceleration.

This wave is quite inflated!

But having only demigods is far from enough.

This is why the seven major macroeconomic possibilities can only be considered to have entered a golden period of acceleration, but are far from being at their peak.

There are too few beings above the level of demigods.

Whether it's the number of great gods or gods above gods, it's far too far from the "upper limit" that macroscopic possibilities can accommodate.

The Sun Gods were not included in the calculation; their existence was transcendent and special, and could not be categorized into the normal sequence.

and so……

……

"almost."

"According to the policy we have formulated, this number is already the most reasonable limit. Continuing would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow."

In the "Ultimate Dimension," Yang Hao, observing the rapidly expanding number of demigods across various macroscopic possibilities, offered a very apt assessment.

"Indeed, the reason we are increasing the number of demigods is not simply for the sake of quantity. The current level is just right."

Yang Yao, who was standing to the side, surprisingly did not argue back, but instead gave a reply of agreement.

"The existence of gods is ultimately just an anchor point to help us weaken and stabilize; the real core should be placed on the gods above us and on us."

"I've already seen the result, and this result is indeed the limit. There's no point in continuing to increase the number of demigods."

[Yang Qing] casually stroked her hand, and her eyes reflected a river of destiny that transcended all macroscopic possibilities, directly anchoring everything within each macroscopic possibility.
