Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 246: The Tree Ancient Sacred Items

The horrors of the earth ancient battleground left Du Fei shaken to his core.

And here I thought time-space ruptures were dangerous. But seeing the chaos in the ancient battleground makes me think a time-space rupture is a breeze by comparison

Thank Heavens we dont have such dreadful monsters back on Earth.

Now, perhaps, but who is to say about the future?

Say what? Du Fei jumped.

The universes races will invade Earth. Its only a matter of time. It can occur anywhere between two years to a decade later.

Li Mo ruined the Gates, but didnt allow himself to breathe easier. For the truly strong beings out there in the vast stretches of space, crossing planets was just like snapping ones fingers.

His effort only worked in delaying their arrival, not stop them completely. 

Bro Mo, whats so special about Earth? Is it that stick of yours? From how you described those godlike beings, having this thing or not wouldnt make any difference to them. So why

The Staff of Origin is one reason. But Earth still has many things stirring the greed of those powers.

The Staff of Origin, Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art, ancient sacred grade magic items, and many others drew the universes powers focus on Earth. They werent about to just give up after a minor setback.

The Staff of Origin is related to a secret that had the entire universe ravenous for it.

Eternal life.

Du Fei was stunned, Youre saying those insanely powerful beings cant live forever?

Li Mo shook his head, Since time immemorial, there has been no case of this ever happening. Look at the ancient sacred beasts, havent they all disappeared as well?

Strengths means power, but no amount of strength can ever overcome time.

They roam the universe unhinged for millions and millions of year, yet how do they end up? Dead and forgotten. After some more millions of years, who will remember those unruly and might beings?

Li Mo sighed.

The Staff of Origin is related to the secret of eternal life. And this is a mere conjecture. How could I unravel it when not even the first master of the Staff of Origin, possessor of Heaven and Earth Inverse, the Great God Pangu, couldnt?

No one wants to die. This goes especially for those overlords of immense power in the universe. In their younger days, they have done good left and right, but as their life came to a swift end, as their lifespan ran dry, they stooped to any low, did all atrocities they could think of, all so they could live draw one more breath.

Du Fei shuddered, What atrocities?

Refining a planets vitality, its core, draining a living beings essence, those kind of things. And these are but common practices for those old bags of bone.

A whole planet

Li Mo shook his head, What is a universes strongest? A snap of his fingers can pulverize a galaxy. Anything less would make one unworthy of such title!

J-just what level does that make to become the strongest in the galaxy?

Beyond the tenth level.

It doesnt seem far

A prodigy needs but half a year to go from first to fifth level.

Then how long will it take to reach the tenth?

As long as it takes. Most humans stop at the third and fourth level. The rare few can reach the fifth level and an even lesser number can attain the seventh level. As for those in the eight or ninth levels, they can be counted on one hand.

While the tenth level, there has only been just the one in the millions of years of history.

No way

Li Mo nodded.

But even tenth level beings cant call themselves the strongest in the universe. When one goes beyond the tenth level, they say the entire universe can feel his power.

Reaching the tenth level, ones true qi turns into divine power. Those that attain such a power are called gods. But surpass the tenth level and you become a God Emperor.

Yet not even a God Emperor can live forever. There had been countless of God Emperors appearing throughout the course of time, but not one could survive till today without being half dead.

Du Fei was stunned, Who are those half dead?

They are precisely the universes strongest that have drained a beings essence. To keep themselves alive, they formed a domain out of their divine power to slow down their time. This is the only reason they could see today

But their domain only works to stretch their lifespan. If they take just one step out of it, their time will swiftly run out.

They cant even wonder their domain. They have to keep focus and maintain the sphere around them, lest they want to waste the precious vitality essence and die all the same.

Also, their domain only works to delay the inevitable, incapable of stopping time completely. That makes many of the forbidden areas in the universe populated with many of universes strongest.

Staying still for millions of years Can you call that living?

If anyone thought like you, thered be no forbidden areas around.

In the universe there are three sacred items of unknown origin. These items can withstand the test of time, able to endure millions of years without a scratch.

The Staff of Origin in my hands is one such item.

And the other two?

One is called Origin Heart, the other Pearl of Creation.

Pearl of Creation, I can understand, but whats that Origin Heart? A real heart?

Yes, a living heart. It never stopped beating since antiquity.

Du Fei was bugeyed.

Placing the Origin Heart inside ones chest and any race snow people excluded, of course will, regardless of cultivation, become a God on the spot.

So strong

Theres more. Their lifespan will increase by a million years.

A true sacred item.

Yes, a sacred item. Li Mo nodded, In normal cases, a Gods lifespan cant go beyond a dozen million years or so.

But a heart, having gone through countless eons, is still very much beating. If it does not contain the secret of eternal life, what does?

Of the three ancient sacred items, the most enticing is the Origin Heart, with the Staff of Origin and Pearl of Creation taking second place.

Bro Mo, where is the other sacred item?

Unknown. Several centuries later

Li Mo shook his head, recalling the bloody universe war with all the races racing on the path to immortality

Du Fei, what you need to focus right now is to quickly enter the sixth level!
