Chapter 727: Rescue
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In Da Qian.
The hourglass which had replaced the sun emitted purple rays.
Giant grains of sand descended.
With the flow of time, Da Qian’s natural source also rapidly shrivelled, as if it were absorbed by some powerful existence.
Furthermore, even the edges of the world also started to show an obvious demarcation that constantly retracted inward.
Throughout the world, tsunamis, storms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions… various natural disasters broke out.
The vitality of the heavens and the earth rapidly decreased. Many extraordinary people who were skilled in making themselves appear youthful quickly discovered that they had already become full of wrinkles and had filth appear on their bodies, which were the five signs of decay of man and heaven.
The world was about to perish, and these extraordinary people relying on the world naturally could not escape.
Nine Extremes Mountain headquarters.
The glow of many spells flickered madly and crashed into the protective spiritual array, causing the curtain of light to vibrate.
“Even at this moment, you still can’t let go of your hatred?” Liu Mengmei looked at this scene. “Our Nine Extremes Mountain… doesn’t seem to have done anything that sparked the wrath of heaven and anger of men?”
“No! Perhaps we should say… it’s precisely because we have reached the end of the world that they’ve become insane?” Extreme Darkness came out and laughed bitterly. “They feel that we’ve deceived them. The Sage also hasn’t returned, and there’s no hope at all.
“When someone is desperate, this is how ugly they can be!”
Liu Mengmei looked at the array that was getting weaker and weaker, and a hint of despair appeared in her eyes. “I’m unsure if the world will be destroyed first, or if our array will be broken by these thieves.”
“In any case, after we’ve died, they won’t gain much!”
A vicious look appeared on Extreme Darkness’ face. “The Dream Masters have already tested. The entire Da Qian World is blocked by an unexplainable power, and even dream-traversing techniques are sealed. Even if someone wanted to abandon their body and escape to the other worlds, they wouldn’t be able to do so… Unless we leave before that existence acts…”
There was still a trace of suspicion at the bottom of her heart. Had Sage Fang Yuan detected this danger and fled from it?
Her true physical body was previously a Sage’s disciple, and she knew a lot about the Sages. Naturally, she did not revere them much.
Furthermore, a Sage was still human. It was human nature to seek profit and avoid harm!
“However, what’s with this hourglass?”
Sensing the increasingly thinning vitality in the air, a bitter smile appeared on Extreme Darkness. “At the brink of death, I don’t even know the reason for it. Now, I somewhat understand my true physical body and why I was so painstakingly pursuing power.”
Kaboom!
The heavens and the earth shook.
Inside the purple hourglass high up in the air, the final grain of sand fell.
Smack!
Extreme Darkness raised her head and looked toward the sky, feeling that her heart was about to explode with it.
Crack! Crack!
In the sky with the purple hourglass as the center, lines of spiderweb-like cracks suddenly appeared.
These were the scars of the sky! The marks of the sky shattering!
With a sharp and clear sound, the entire sky shattered like glass to reveal massive chaos.
With streams of turbulence, anything on Da Qian, regardless of whether they were mountains, vegetation, animals, or even remarkable cultivators, instantly disintegrated into fine powder upon touching them.
“This is the tribulation for the destruction of the world? Unexpectedly, I get to witness this…”
Somewhere in the void, the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard raised his head and had an extremely calm sense of despair on his face. “That existence still isn’t willing to let me go?”
As a Sage who was previously dedicated in service toward Da Qian from the beginning to end and managed to survive, he was very sensitive to this spiritual aura.
In a moment, he knew that it was the existence that had deprived him of the Dream Master path.
It actually wanted to annihilate this entire world!
“Retribution… Us dream masters plundered the heavens and the earth. The place where our true body resides is going to be annihilated by an even stronger being. This is the heavenly cycle and appropriate retribution!”
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard released a long sigh and tears inadvertently flowed.
He no longer had that previous elegant and unrestrained appearance, but instead turned into a sloppy, old man.
Under the mighty force of that existence who had deprived him of the Dream Master path, even a Sage was merely a large ant. A mere True Elemental Spiritual Knight was even more insignificant.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard astonishingly saw that in the sky of the perishing world, that purple eye once again appeared.
This time, it was greedily absorbing the souls of the dead, especially those of great beings and Dream Masters.
To him, this feeling was getting more intense.
“It even wants to deprive the power of death? No!”
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard was already in despair, but suddenly started struggling.
No matter what happened, he was unwilling to have his soul violated after he died.
“That existence had first deprived me of the Dream Master path, but still isn’t satisfied with extinguishing the world this time. It still wants to plunder our souls…. this existence is even more nefarious than Evil Demons!”
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard roared, “Heaven’s will! Where is heaven’s will?”
Currently, the only thing which could possibly contend against this existence was Da Qian heaven’s will.
Unfortunately, after the destruction of the world began, Da Qian heaven’s will seemed to have descended into deep slumber and had no reactions.
Seeing this, the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard’s heart completely sank.
I’m afraid that a long time ago, Da Qian World had already suffered the contamination of the Mental Demon Realm, and hidden doors were left behind for heaven’s will… There’ll probably be no escape for the world this time!
He smiled wanly and his body started decaying. A small bit of True Spirit was directed by a huge force and propelled toward the purple eye.
At this moment, all the higher beings in the Da Qian World experienced the same treatment.
I’m really unwilling to accept this fate… My life as a Hidden Dragon has been full of obstacles, yet my ultimate fate is still getting killed!
While his True Spirit was rising, the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard thought of many things.
His final thought shifted to a person’s silhouette.
Even he was unable to imagine that the person who had rebuilt the Da Qian country was actually an unimportant person that previously did not have much reputation. That person even became a Sage!
“Fang Yuan… Unfortunately, even a Sage is unable to prevent this!”
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard sighed, and his True Spirit was about to slide into eternal slumber.
Suddenly, a loud sound jolted him awake.
Stunned, he scanned with his spiritual will and immediately saw a large hand covering the heavens and the earth!
This hand emerged from chaos and had dense runic imprints on it, emitting many of rule auras.
At the moment, its five fingers were clenched together and viciously threw a punch toward the giant purple eye in the sky.
Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water—Creation Divine Fist!
Thump!
The giant eye instantly shattered, and True Spirits scattered onto Da Qian like meteors.
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard even felt that the power restraining him instantly disappear.
Not only that, that huge runic hand made another move and dispersed the chaos. The vault of heaven automatically closed, as if the previous destruction of the world was merely an illusion.
“This great existence that stopped the giant eye is Fang Yuan?!”
The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard was very astonished and was practically about to begin questioning life.
But regarding Fang Yuan’s spiritual will, he was absolutely certain. “Impossible… even a Sage is no different from an infant before that existence!”
…
Nine Extremes Mountain headquarters.
“It’s the Sage!”
“The Sage has returned!”
Extreme Darkness and Liu Mengmei’s luck was considered decent and did not attract special attention, unlike the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guard. They also had the array’s protection and could barely hold on when they finally saw the appearance of that giant hand that covered the sky.
To them, it was even less likely to incorrectly recognize Fang Yuan’s aura.
Whoosh!
Trails of meteors flashed across the sky, and the gradually vanishing giant hand seemed to have sensed the situation here and lightly snapped.
Poof!
Those cultivators still waiting outside and attacking the Nine Extremes Mountain instantly stood with dazed faces. And suddenly, each of them collapsed without a hint of life, their corpses turning into fine powder.
…
The people of Da Qian could only see a part of the battle, just like looking at a leopard through a pipe.
In the Monger World, Fang Yuan slowly retracted his hand and carefully savored the differences.
“The realm beyond a Creator… is origin power! Endless life, the advancement of intrinsic quality, no! It should be the ascension of the dimension!”
Currently, when he observing the interior of his body, he realized that although he still had his original body, the composition was different from before.
“Now, I should have exceeded the realm of a Creator and derived the Creation Sword Array to the pinnacle of the Ninth Sword. Using this as a foundation, I’ve ascended!”
Fang Yuan returned to the figure of an ordinary person, and with every breath he took, the natural source of the entire Monger World seemed to be able to be moved as he desired.
“Using the origin power and the foundation of the entire Monger World, I’ve achieved a breakthrough… It seems that this world has not only increased its dimensions, its Power has increased as well!”
Power!
This was a word used in this new world and originated from Fang Yuan’s inspiration.
“This is somewhat similar to Godhood, but it’s still largely different. At least, the range of Power covers many worlds and even dimensions!
“Of course, I took some small advantages when I fought that existence earlier!”
Although he had won that round by luck, there was no happiness on Fang Yuan’s face.
At his level, he could already sense that the opponent’s realm was definitely higher than his.
Of course, this was still slightly better than the feeling of an ant looking up at a person.
Furthermore, due to the higher dimension that the other person’s true physical body resided in, he could only attack the world from a far distance with greatly lowered strength.
With this circumstance, he was able to gain the upper hand and defeat his enemy in one blow.
“Unfortunately… the realm I’m at is on the verge of ascension!”
Fang Yuan sighed and looked at the surrounding world.
An incompatible feeling immediately filled his heart.
Since he was about to ascend, he would definitely have to enter a higher dimension.
At the moment, even though he was within the strongest Monger World and was constantly supported by the power of the world, he felt that he was about to suffocate.
This type of situation was just like an ordinary person suddenly being thrown into a desert without water or food. They would die from thirst or hunger!
Right now, Fang Yuan was just like a banished immortal. Although he could utilize the powers near him, they were all too low-level.
“Hilarious! Those Sages were trying in vain to meet and guide the Mental Demon Realm, but unaware that as long as the world was here, it would automatically expel them, causing them to ascend an even higher dimension universe!”
Fang Yuan shook his head and deeply felt that what the previous Sages did was not worthwhile.
