Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 237 --Rome and Cattle

With a few simple instructions from Frost Star,

Daniel finally understood how he could break free from the chains of the stellar laws that had been restraining Frost Star.

The method was deceptively simple: all Daniel had to do was eliminate the few surrounding stellar entities around Frost Star. Once they were removed, Frost Star would temporarily regain a certain degree of freedom to act.

However, despite the apparent simplicity of the plan, Daniel could only respond with a helpless smile.

It seemed that breaking the laws of the universe was never an easy task. What’s more, Frost Star had made it very clear—he couldn’t lift a finger to help.

Nevertheless, Daniel still agreed to the cooperation.

After all, what was most important to him right now was still the goal he had set from the start: meeting Dark Star Jarvan.

Once the cooperation was sealed between the two parties, Daniel’s body flickered and he teleported next to one of the nearby stellar entities.

Almost at the exact same time, he activated the dagger of the God of Thieves and summoned all of his clones.

...

Simultaneously, Daniel performed a location switch with one of his clones.

Now, the task of besieging the stellar entity was entirely handed over to his army of avatars, while his true body had already returned to the abyssal zone.

Strictly speaking, the abyss didn’t exist in the current timeline yet.

The true emergence of the abyss would not happen until 1,000 years later, during the Second Millennium Apocalypse.

It was during that cataclysm that this entire region was engulfed by the abyss.

So then—where exactly was Revelation?

Daniel’s real body fell into deep thought. But then, a spark of insight lit up in his mind, and his eyes instantly brightened.

He had traveled all the way to the Primordial Plane but still hadn’t found any trace of Revelation.

Could it be that his entire line of reasoning from the beginning had been flawed?

Perhaps Revelation wasn’t hidden in some deep, mysterious realm.

What if it had been inside the underground labyrinth all along?

This sudden idea got Daniel excited.

With the growth of his power, it had been a long time since he last visited the labyrinth.

But now that he thought about it, humanity was still relatively weak in this era. If Revelation could be found by humans during this time, that meant the location couldn’t be excessively dangerous.

And the underground labyrinth was exactly the kind of place that was both accessible to humans and sufficiently secretive.

Looks like it’s time to go back to his old profession.

With that thought, Daniel once again created two more clones.

One was tasked with scouring the labyrinth at high speed in search of Revelation’s whereabouts.

The other clone, on the other hand, flew toward the Oden Continent.

In the original timeline, 4,000 years in the future, Daniel had been unable to break through a certain barrier due to the existence of the God of Flesh.

But since he was now 4,000 years in the past—and the God of Flesh had yet to be born—he had an opportunity.

Thus, Daniel ordered his clone to fully uncover and map out the entirety of the Oden Continent.

As the clone arrived over the continent, Daniel started sensing some very curious things.

There were races here that he had never seen before—elemental lifeforms of all kinds, as well as massive, frenzied beasts.

One couldn’t deny that, during the first Millennium Apocalypse, both major continents of this world were home to an incredible variety of species.

However, after several millennia of apocalypses, the total number of races remaining in the world had dwindled to merely 10,000.

And even that was a generous estimate. Many of those so-called "ten thousand races" were already on the verge of extinction. The only reason they hadn’t disappeared completely was because some powerful Sovereigns were still holding the line.

But truthfully, their foundations were fragile. Annihilation was only a matter of time.

Even so, it didn’t take Daniel long to form a judgment.

It seemed that the first of the Millennium Apocalypses wasn’t as "mild" as it might have seemed at first glance.

On the contrary—it must have been terrifyingly destructive.

Otherwise, why would so many races have vanished from the world?

And in the future, even the entire Oden Continent would become nothing more than nourishment for the God of Flesh.

Just then, Daniel sensed something unusual.

He immediately swapped places with the clone inside the underground labyrinth.

[Meteor Arrow Rain]!

A deluge of light arrows poured down from the skies, blanketing the entire subterranean space in the blink of an eye.

At this point in time, the labyrinth wasn’t nearly as difficult as it would become in later eras. The strongest boss that appeared here was only around World Rank level. Against Daniel’s current strength, these creatures were practically nothing.

Feathers of light fell from the sky, and countless monsters were instantly struck down where they stood.

Even the so-called gatekeeper monster was effortlessly dealt with by Daniel.

But just when Daniel was expecting that monster to drop Revelation as loot—

To his surprise, a portal appeared where the creature had died.

And beyond the portal was yet another underground labyrinth.

...So we’re doing nesting dolls now?

Daniel’s mouth twitched slightly.

Without hesitation, he stepped into the next layer of the labyrinth.

But the instant he entered, he was bombarded with a blinding white light.

The radiance was so intense that he instinctively shut his eyes.

Had it not been for his considerable strength, just that beam alone would have been enough to blind him.

At the same time, Daniel summoned the Holy Codex—the one gifted to him by the Grand Archbishop.

Of course, the Archbishop had been very eager to give it away... so eager, in fact, that he fainted on the spot.

Ahem.

Flipping through the Codex, Daniel quickly confirmed his suspicions.

At this point in time, the beings known as "gods" had not yet fully ascended to true godhood—they were still at the Demigod Rank.

But what exactly was the difference between a Demigod and a God?

Daniel didn’t really know. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Still, he had a vague intuition: it might be related to the concept of domains or divine territory.

Of course, Daniel was still far from godhood himself. At best, he could only make guesses.

With his current strength, let alone being a Demigod—he hadn’t even touched the threshold of demigod rank yet.

Even so, what he read in the Holy Codex made him frown unconsciously.

According to the records, in order to obtain Revelation... he had to defeat Apollo.

Only now did Daniel finally understand what this second labyrinth was.

He immediately summoned another clone and sent it in ahead while activating his Eye of Insight to examine the source of the blinding light.

[Sun God Apollo]

Initial Level: 800

Current Status: Dormant

Description: Every 12 hours, he returns to the Primordial Plane to sleep. One of the most powerful stellar entities in existence.

Faith: Light, Gold, and Silver

...

Seeing this, Daniel instantly understood who the final boss of the second labyrinth was.

Although Apollo hadn’t yet become a god, just the fact that his base level was 800 made him outrageously powerful.

Daniel thought about his own situation—he had been grinding day and night for two full days, and had only just reached level 100.

And here was Apollo, lounging around at level 800 from the start?

It was like they were born in two completely different worlds.

As the saying goes: some people are born in Rome. Others are born to serve as cattle.

This difference... was simply absurd.
