Han Sen didn't panic. He allowed his body to be sucked into the universal cogwheel door.
This was a necessary process to become King class. Every creature that pushed the self-universe cogwheel to become King class had to go through this process. They had the right to enter the geno universe's core area.
Until now, no one had been able to explain what the core area was. Some people said it was a special xenogeneic space. Some people said it was the geno hall's territory. There were many other guesses, but no matter what they were, there was no evidence to support them.
All the creatures knew was that if a King class elite opened a core area, they could use their self-universe cogwheel to enter the universe's core area.
When they opened a core area for the first time, they would be pulled into the universe's core area. Just like Han Sen was now.
His body went into the sun-like fire. When his vision returned, he found himself in an old metal palace.
The palace was very weird. The floor, walls, and ceiling were all made of different sizes of cogwheels. There were no gaps between the cogwheels.
Every cogwheel was spinning, but they were spinning at different speeds. Some were fast, and some were slow. Han Sen could even hear the sound of the cogwheels spinning. It was like the ticking of a mechanical watch.
Han Sen didn't have time to look at the weird palace. The Sacred Blood Statue and Nine-Tailed Fox's power were still there. Leveling up to King class hadn't consumed them.
Han Sen's heart jumped. He cast The Story of Genes. He wanted to see if he could use the Sacred Blood Statue and Nine-Tailed Fox's power to push The Story of Genes' universal cogwheel.
It turned out that Han Sen's imagination was too perfect. The Sacred Blood Statue and Nine-Tailed Fox's power couldn't push The Story of Genes' universal cogwheel. They were consumed. The Sacred Blood Statue and Nine-Tailed Fox's tattoo faded away until they were gone.
Han Sen checked his body to make sure he didn't feel them anymore. Then, he started to look around the palace.
The gears spun like clocks, but they didn't have an hour hand. They only had a different number of teeth. The more teeth there were, the slower the gears spun. The fewer teeth there were, the faster they spun. After looking at them for a long time, it gave people a strange feeling. It was as if they were in a time palace full of clocks.
Han Sen's body was in the air, but when he stepped on one of the cogwheels on the ground, the cogwheels lit up and spun faster. All the cogwheels in the palace started to spin with the help of that one cogwheel. It twisted the space around it, and not long after, the palace's door opened. Han Sen saw a sky outside the palace.
Han Sen was clad in his Dongxuan Armor. He walked out of the universal core palace and saw many lights flying through space. When he looked closer, he realized they were all King class creatures.
After Han Sen walked out of the Universal Core Godly Palace, the Godly Palace slowly disappeared with the sound of gears turning.
Han Sen knew he had to push the self-universe cogwheel to keep spinning. If he wanted to summon the universal core palace again, he would have to leave.
This was the first time Han Sen had entered the universal core area. He didn't want to leave right away. He wanted to take a look around and see if this place was just like the legends said it was.
Suddenly, a light flew past Han Sen. It flew past him, but it didn't go far before it turned and flew back toward Han Sen.
Han Sen was shocked. Only Kings were allowed to enter the universal core area. Even half-deifieds could enter the universal core area. He was only a first-tier King, so he had to be careful.
The light flew in front of Han Sen and stopped. Han Sen saw it clearly. It was Dragon Eight, one of the Dragons. He had become King class, too.
"Dollar?" Dragon Eight looked at Han Sen, and his eyes burned with passion.
When Han Sen joined the Geno Being Scroll fights, he used the identity of Dollar. He wore the Dongxuan Armor, so Han Sen rarely wore it. He didn't want to expose his identity.
After the Dongxuan Sutra had evolved twice, the Dongxuan Armor had changed as well. Now, the Dongxuan Armor was completely black. It was like a dark night, and any light that touched it would be absorbed. From afar, Han Sen looked like a black shadow in space.
Even Han Sen didn't expect someone to recognize him as Dollar through the Dongxuan Armor.
Since he had been recognized, Han Sen didn't plan on denying it. He looked at Dragon Eight and said, "Dragon Eight?"
"It's good that you still recognize me."
Dragon Eight's eyes burned with passion. He had lost to Dollar in the Geno Being Scroll, and he wanted to fight him again.
But he couldn't find out where Dollar was. He hadn't expected to run into him here. Dragon Eight released his gold area and covered Han Sen. He looked cocky as he said, "This time, I'm going to beat you. Release your area."
"Dragon Eight, what are you doing?"
Before Han Sen could respond, a few lights flew toward him. They were all Kings of the Dragons. Han Sen had seen Dragon One before.
Dragon One was most likely a half-deified elite. If there were a few other Dragon Kings attacking him at the same time, it would be troublesome to deal with them all at the same time.
"Big Dragon, he is Dollar." Dragon Eight looked at Han Sen without turning his head.
"Dollar?"
Dragon One and the others were shocked. They had all seen Dollar's performance in the Geno Being Scroll, and he had left a deep impression on them.
But they weren't as obsessed with Dollar as Dragon Eight, so they didn't recognize him immediately. They looked at him for a while, and then they realized he did look like him.
"Are you really Dollar?" Dragon One looked at Han Sen and asked. He still wasn't sure.
"Does it matter if I am or not?" Han Sen said coldly.
"I can't be wrong. He is Dollar. Don't come any closer. He is mine."
Dragon Eight's eyes looked wild, and he went on to say, "Dollar, release your area. Let me see if you are still as strong as you were before."
"Is that really necessary?"
Han Sen said. He gathered up power, and a coin appeared on his fingertips. He threw it at Dragon Eight.
"Don't underestimate me!"
Dragon Eight roared, and the gold area around him became solid. It became an old, golden chest that trapped the coin inside.
Dong!
The coin and the gold chest fell together, but they didn't touch Dragon Eight.
"That is a very powerful metal area."
Han Sen couldn't help but compliment him. Within Dragon Eight's area, he could gather up metal powers. If Dragon Eight wanted to, he could seal Han Sen inside the gold.
It was similar to Nine-Headed Bird's Suppress Demon Coffin area, but Dragon Eight's area wasn't just a sealing area.
