(Unedited Chapter)

Wang Wei clenched his fist, feeling the power surging in his veins.
His strength did not change much, but he felt complete,
unbothered, and unrestrained.
After proving the Dao, people who cultivate as Qi Refiners and Body
Refiners are an anomaly or a paradox. Great Emperors are
essentially Conceptual Creature, their bodies composed of the very
concept they cultivate.
Although their flesh and blood appeared the same as ordinary
people, they were not. However, body refiners are flesh and blood
creatures; it's just their flesh has reached an unprecedented level.
As someone who walked both paths, Wang Wei is both a flesh and
blood creature and a conceptual life form. This paradox previously
had a subtle influence on his body. However, after the tribulation,
everything was solved.
His concepts were not deeply fused with his flesh, forming a
perfect balance. The concept and flesh now work together in
harmony, granting him the advantage of both while also removing
some of the flaws of the others.
Wang Wei exhaled deeply as clothes appeared on his body.
"Why do I feel this test was weird?" After experiencing this
tribulation, he had a feeling that there were some secrets as to why
it was in such a manner.
So, he took a moment to gather his thoughts and deduce the truth;
the answer did not elude him for long.
'The Old Gods,' thought Wang Wei, thinking about his experience of
meeting Cthulhu during the Cleanup. 'In most iterations of the Old
Gods' myth, people will lose their sanity after meeting them. The
spiritual aspect of this test seemed targeted to resist their influence
in the mind.
'Furthermore, in some iterations, people will mutate into
abominable creatures. Could Grand Dao have designed this test to
resist the influence of the Old Gods?'
As he continued this line of thought, many ideas popped into Wang
Wei's mind.
'According to my theory, Body Refining was the first cultivation
path of the universe that led directly to the Paragon Realm. If
Cthulhu appeared during that era, it's understandable why Grand
Dao would change the test to fight against the Elder God's power.'
Suddenly, Wang Wei felt he had come close to the truth. He could
predict the chains of events. The body refining path prospered,
Cthulhu appeared, Grand Dao changed the tribulation to deal with
his problem, and finally, Cthulhu was sealed, and the test remained
in the present.
'Could Cthulhu be why the first Gate is missing? Or does that
involve something else?'
Wang Wei did not have an answer yet as there were too many
possibilities for this answer, and he lacked too much information.
'Let's not focus on this for now. The truly valuable information from
this deduction is where Cthulhu originated from. It's obviously not
a creature originating from this Chaos Universe a?? unless it escapes
from the Prehistoric World.
'So, there could be only one answer a?? from Hongmeng.'
This deduction validated one of Wang Wei's most important
theoriesa??there are other Chaos Universes. After achieving
transcendence, a cultivator can escape the Chaos Universe and
enter Hongmeng.
In Hongmeng, there are other Chaos Universes and other
cultivators, even creatures who might be born there.
Cthulhu was one of these creatures, but it accidentally discovered
this Chaos Universe and took a look. However, the result was its
defeat and eventual sealing.
'No, things are not so simple. If the myths about the Old Gods are
true, Cthulhu is not this weak and should not be captured so easily.
So, the fact it sufferers such a fate can mean three things:
'First, this Chaos Universe is one of the best, so the power ceiling is
terribly high. However, this theory does not hold up. No matter how
high its power, can it compare to a transcendent creature?'
Wang Wei shook his head; based on the information he knew, he
felt it was impossible for Grand Dao and all the universe's citizens
to deal with a transcendent.
'The second possibility is that this universe has cultivated a
transcendent, thus considering its home part of their territory. So,
after Cthulhu broke through this Chaos Universe, another
Transcendent dealt with it.'
Wang Wei felt this theory had more substance for multiple reasons.
The first is the parameters he attributed to Transcendence. Once a
cultivator reaches that step, they should have truly achieved
