Chapter 12 – Evolution: Golden Beast Awakens, Star Core Ignites
[Deep Universe – Outside Earth's Solar System]
In the dark void of space, a gigantic body floated lifelessly.
Its flesh shimmered with golden light. Its horns curved upward like blades forged from starlight. This was a beast whose name struck fear across the galaxies—
— the Golden Horned Beast.
And within its skull, the consciousness of a human youth surged like a tidal wave.
In the void, the beast opened its eyes — golden and deep like ancient stars.
But inside…
> "I've succeeded!" Luo Feng's spiritual voice trembled with excitement.
"This body… its strength… I've never felt anything like it."
The power of the Golden Horned Beast was terrifying.
With a single step, it could crush mountains. With a roar, it could tear apart warships.
Yet now — it was his.
And with this beast body, Luo Feng could enter the true ranks of universal warriors.

A circular disc of 8-layered space-time rings floated behind his back like a divine halo.
With each breath, reality itself twisted.

Luo Chen's eyes opened.
In his main body, he stood.
In his 2nd clone, lightning danced across a black sky.
In his 3rd, a volcano erupted as he descended into magma.
And all three… smiled.
> "From today onward…"
"…I'm no longer a cultivator of Earth."
"I'm a future Sovereign of the Universe."
