Du Gang’s vision blurred, and by the time he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely different place.

What came into view was a place full of electronic components. After staring at it for a while, he realized he was inside a spaceship.

It was similar to the spaceship he had piloted earlier, with a colossal control screen, many ambiguous buttons, and a series of fixed seats.

From these items, he deduced that he was in the command room of the spaceship. Turning his head, he saw as expected, there were passages leading to other parts of the ship.

Looking all around, there were no signs of life. However, the spaceship was very clean as if someone was constantly cleaning it.

“Beep!”

An electronic sound rang out.

The lights inside the spaceship suddenly illuminated, transforming the previously dim hall into a brilliantly-lit one.

Simultaneously, on the large screen, the figure of a man who looked identical to Du Gang appeared.

“Welcome back, young master!” the image on the screen suddenly said.

Du Gang was taken aback; he asked the figure on the screen that looked exactly like him, “Who are you?”

“I am Bara!” The figure on the screen replied methodically.

Du Gang frowned, “Are you an Al?”

“Can you change your appearance?”

Looking at a face that was an exact mirror image of his own felt awkward.

“Yes!”

The appearance on the screen suddenly shifted into that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.

What also changed along with this transformation was the system’s electronic voice. It went from a magnetic male voice identical to his own, to that of a girl’s voice.

Seeing Bara’s changed appearance, Du Gang finally asked, “Can you tell me where we are?”

“This is Ancient God Spaceship, a one-star C-class spaceship!” A one-star C-class spaceship?

Du Gang was initially surprised; however, he still asked, frowning”What about the Ancient God’s heritage?”

He thought he was interfacing with a real Ancient God. Who knew he would be dealing with something as emotionless as an Al.

As his voice trailed off, Bara disappeared in an instant. Simultaneously, an audio file popped up on the screen.

“Hello, my son…”

Upon hearing the first sentence, Du Gang was dumbstruck. “What did he call But the audio didn’t care about his reaction and continued to play.

“Please allow me to call you that. All my life, I’ve dreamt of marrying a female

Ancient God and having a son, but alas…”

The voice sounded feeble, as if it would run out of breath any second.

Du Gang immediately understood that this must be the last words left by the Ancient God who was a hundred thousand meters tall. He quickly quietened down and continued to listen intently. “My name is Du Kang, an Ancient God…”

“Stop!”

Du Gang, who was just suppressing his displeasure, suddenly yelled, “Bara, come out. What is going on here?”

Suddenly, the screen, which was displaying audio frequencies, changed to Bara’s appearance.

“The old master’s name was indeed Du Kang, but he has no relation to your biological father…”

“I have always been looking for someone who can inherit the old master’s bloodline. The fact that I chose you is purely coincidental!”

Bara spoke seriously: “Of course, you are fortunate to have a father named Du Kang… The old master always wanted a son, so I took the liberty of choosing you!”

Du Gang was speechless. Was the Ancient God’s inheritance really so haphazard?

“Wait, aren’t you an Al? You can make decisions on your own?”

“Primary Al possesses only logical processing programs, capable of processing inputs, incapable of processing outputs…”

“Intermediate Al possesses the capability to interact with other Al devices, but can’t communicate normally with humans…”

“Advanced Al has the abilities mentioned above, also permits recovery of information exchanges with human users, and can conduct independent information interactions via networks with other programs…”

“Top-level Al possesses all the abilities mentioned above, in addition to the ability to independently learn and upgrade via networks. It also possesses systems for independent judgment, independent analysis…”

Du Gang was attracted by this novel explanation and asked curiously: “So, you are a top-level Al?”

“Yes!”

Upon getting an affirmative response, Du Gang didn’t ask further and nodded, “I get it. Now, continue playing the audio! ”

Soon, the waveform-shaped audio file reappeared on the screen.

“My name is Du Kang, an Ancient God. You’re probably unfamiliar with Ancient Gods. We’re a special race in the universe!”

Du Kang paused for a moment and added: “A race that is unrivaled within its rank!”

“Cough, cough!”

He coughed and then continued: “I don’t have much time left, so I’ll cut to the chase…

Listening to this feeble voice, Du Gang quickly moved closer, straining his ears to listen.

“First, Ancient Gods are very powerful!”

“Second, Ancient Gods have enemies!”

“Third, accepting my inheritance also means you accept the karma I carried…’ At this point, the audio file paused, and Bara’s visage appeared on the screen once more.

“Du Gang, please make your choice. Accept the inheritance, or reject it.”

Du Gang was taken aback and countered, “The Ancient God’s enemies are powerful?”

“Yes!”

“Accepting the inheritance would mean avenging him?”

‘Yes!”

He paused for a moment, then asked, “So, what would happen if I don’t accept the inheritance?”

For the first time, an hint of a smile appeared on Bara’s face as it said: “If you don’t accept the inheritance, your Ancient God gene will be reclaimed!” Du Gang frowned, “Does that mean I won’t be able to transform in the future?”

“Yes!”

He pondered for three seconds before making his decision, declaring straight away: “I accept the inheritance!”

If he couldn’t shout the words “Transform”, was there any point to his life?

Was he really supposed to live a hundred or two hundred years on Earth, get married, have a child, live an ordinary life, and die an ordinary death?

If he hadn’t made such a big name for himself, it might be possible to live in seclusion.

But the problem was that he had already made a huge name for himself in the wasteland starfield; once people knew he was damaged, it was uncertain if someone would come knocking to ridicule him.

Humiliation was light; if it’s heavy, even Earth’s civilization might be buried with it.

So, after a brief consideration, he agreed.

He chose to accept the inheritance and confront Du Kang’s enemy.

Although, he knew that whoever could kill a Rank Five Ancient God must be even more powerful, with careful scheming, he could eventually avenge him!

“I knew I was right about you!”

Barbara gave a radiant smile, nodded her head, and disappeared again, leaving only the audio file behind.

“Son, I knew I could count on you, well done!” Du Kang’s voice instantly made Du Gang’s teeth ache, but he didn’t interrupt this time and kept listening. “Our Ancient God’s enemies are not here, not even in the Milky Way Galaxy…”

“We, the Ancient Gods, have lived in the center of the universe since ancient times. It was only when my generation was forced to leave home, drifting all the way, that we arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy..

“You will naturally learn about the enemies of the Ancient Gods when you reach Rank Nine…”

“However, do not go to the center of the universe before you reach the Ninth Rank…”

At this point, the voice paused again, and after a short while, Du Kang sternly warned: “If your power reaches the Ninth Rank… never go to the homeland of the Ancient Gods!”

“Never go to the homeland of the Ancient Gods!”

He repeated it twice before his voice fell back to its previous frailty and said in a very gloomy tone, “Even though I think the chances of you reaching Rank Nine are slim, what if you do…”

After mumbling, he returned to his previous state and continued, ‘You really don’t need to worry about the matters of the Ancient Gods. As long as you aren’t a Ninth Rank, the enemies at the universe center…won’t pay you any mind… ”

“Having talked about the enemies of the Ancient Gods, let’s now talk about my enemies!”

“Our Ancient God clan is esteemed in the center of the universe. In this universe, who doesn’t bow down upon seeing our Ancient God clan?” It was clear that he was very proud of the Ancient Gods’ title.

However, his next sentence was filled with loneliness.

“Unfortunately, so many years have passed. There aren’t many people who remember the race of the Ancient Gods, right…?”

“But then, I met a man in the Milky Way Empire… At first, I considered him a brother, but who could have imagined that he would covet my treasures and sneak attacked me…”

“Zhou Haotian, the ruler of the Milky Way Empire. A Rank Nine, Universe Level expert…”

“Although he was one major realm higher than me, I still managed to severely wound him…”

“If you can… take revenge for me!”

With this, Du Kang’s voice gradually faded away.

After a while, Barbara reappeared on the screen. “This is the final testament that the old master has left for you!”

Du Gang asked, “What is Universe Level?”

Up till now, he had only heard of Satellite Level at the most. He didn’t know anything else that was higher than that.

“I will explain it according to how the old master explained the ranks of the

Ancient Gods and the ranks of the universe cultivation…” “Rank One Ancient God is equivalent to Meteorite-level!” “Rank Two Ancient God is equivalent to Comet-level!” “Rank Three Ancient God is equivalent to Satellite-level!” “Rank Four Ancient God is equivalent to Planet-level!” “Rank Five Ancient God is equivalent to Stellar-level!” “Rank Six Ancient God is equivalent to Universe-level!” “Rank Seven Ancient God is equivalent to Domain Lord Level!” “Rank Eight Ancient God is equivalent to Sector Lord Level!”

“Rank Nine Ancient God is equivalent to Eternal Level!”

Du Gang exclaimed in shock, “There are so many more ranks above me?”

“Yes!”

He paused then asked with a puzzled expression, “Wait a moment, this isn’t right. I’m clearly a Rank Four Ancient God. According to your explanation, I should already be able to rival a Planet Level. But it seems like I can’t even kill someone at the Meteorite Level, right?”

Barbara explained, “You aren’t exactly a Rank Four Ancient God. You only have the body of a Rank Four Ancient God!”

“Ancient God is divided into three aspects: Soul of the Ancient God, Power of the Ancient God, and the Base of the Ancient God!”

“What you possess is only the Base of the Ancient God, which represents only the body of an Ancient God…”

“The Power of the Ancient God is a power even superior to Star Power. It can perfectly control the Base of an Ancient God and unleash its rightful power…”

“Only when you possess the Power of the Ancient God can you cultivate the

Ancient God Technique. For example, you are currently a Rank Four Ancient God. If you cultivate the Ancient God Technique to the fourth layer, you will then possess the combat power that should reign supreme at the Planet Level!”

“As for the Soul of the Ancient God, the old master once said that Ancient Gods once had a corresponding mental attack technique, but by the time it reached him, it had almost been lost…’

“Now, as long as you possess the Soul of an Ancient God, you can cultivate a unique Soul Technique of the Ancient Gods, suppress your origin, and resist all mental attacks at the corresponding level!”

Du Gang nodded, “So, the inheritance of Ancient Gods is about cultivating these two techniques. The Ancient God Technique can develop divine power and perfectly control physical strength, while the other one can resist mental attacks!”

Barbara shook her head, “The Ancient God inheritance is the Ancient God inheritance. These two techniques can only be cultivated after you have inherited it…”

“Before this, you need to possess the Soul of the Ancient God and Power of the

Ancient God!”

As they were speaking, a humanoid robot walked over from the distance.

Barbara’s voice came from the robot.

“Please follow me, I will lead you to accept the inheritance!”

After saying this, she headed towards the door of the cabin, and Du Gang quickly followed.

When they got off the spacecraft, Du Gang was stunned by what he saw.

Within a square space, a spaceship was parked, with a vacant lot beside it where a large tree was planted.

If you only look at these scenes, they might seem normal. But if you look further into the distance, you will find that, except for the vivid life essence within this cubic space of a hundred meters, everything else is chaotic.

“This is Life Space!”

“This is an independent space,” Barbara explained. “It is not only used to store items, but it can also allow life to exist inside it!”

“This space is different from storage devices developed with quantum technology! ”

“These spaces truly exist in the universe. They are just hidden in emptiness… They are a piece of reality cut from the emptiness and then loaded onto a ring…”

“Wait, are you saying we’re inside a ring now?” Du Gang interrupted.

“Yes!” Barbara, controlling the robot, gave a mechanical nod. “We are in a ring, and this ring is worn on the hand of the old master!”

“On his hand? How big would a Storage Ring have to be then?” Du Gang thought of Du Kang’s gigantic size and exclaimed in surprise.

Barbara explained with a smile, “The material of this space ring is unique. It can fuse directly into one’s skin.”

“The old master originally saved this ring for when he broke through to Rank

Eight…’

“Rank Eight?” Du Gang was now incredibly interested in information about these high ranks.

“Rank Eight corresponds with the Sector Lord Level. As the name suggests, the Sector Lord not only controls a sector of the universe, but also nurtures a universe within their body!”

“What?” Du Gang exclaimed in shock. “Nurturing a universe within the body?”

Barbara gave a mechanical smile and declared, “Indeed, a Sector Lord carries a universe within them!”

“Breaking through from Rank Seven, Domain Lord Level, to Rank Eight, Sector Lord Level, requires the use of this kind of Life Space…”

As she was speaking, they arrived at the large tree.

“This is the old master’s inheritance,” Barbara said pointing at the tree. “Just put your hand on it, and you officially begin accepting the Ancient God Inheritance, obtaining the Soul of the Ancient God and Power of the Ancient God!”

Upon hearing this, Du Gang solemnly walked up to it.

“If I place my hand on it, the inheritance process starts?”

“Yes!”

Upon receiving confirmation, he hesitated no more and slowly placed his hand on it..
