Chapter 513: Discussing The New Path And Myth



Chapter 513: Discussing The New Path And Myth

When traveling, one could see phoenixes dancing in the sky, holy beasts pulling carriages. During leisure time, one could enter secret realms, step into the starry sky, visit friends in the Northern Sea of the Celestial Caverns, roam freely among famous mountains and great rivers. One could even directly ascend into the azure sky, standing among the clouds, watching the sunset of the Golden Crow, as the flowing fire dyed the mountains and rivers red.  

This was Wang Xuan's yearning for the Immortal Path when he was young. He could embrace the moon in the Ninth Heaven, attend banquets in the Dragon Palace in the Four Seas, and also enter the Yao Pool to join the grand gatherings of the ten thousand immortals.  

However, what he saw was far from what he imagined when he truly stepped into the Transcendent Realm. Perhaps those grand scenes had once existed, but him being in this generation, could not experience them. He was completely out of reach of the cultivators of his era!  

What could be seen now? The Great Barrier had collapsed, and news from the Immortal Realm also confirmed this. Large swaths of the Great Veil collapsed, and sixty percent of the Immortal Realm was extinguished, forever silent, plunged into boundless darkness! 

After a brief silence, cries could be heard in the Great Barrier and the Immortal Realm. Some cultivators were despondent and mournful. Everything was about to perish, and transcendence was about to end!  

The gods stood on the ruins, and the immortals stood among the dilapidated mountains and rivers. In the collapsing semi-material plane, many beings departed, while others stopped as they were willing to live and die with their homeland.  

Scenes of decay could be seen everywhere, there were desolations everywhere. The Great Barrier and the Immortal Realm were completely decaying and could not be maintained for much longer.  

Outside, everyone was waiting. Wang Xuan stood on the spaceship, his eyes opening and closing, his spiritual eye surpassing the perception of the gods, crossing the Great Barrier, searching for Fang Yuzhu.  

Finally, after a long time, the decaying Great Barrier trembled. Someone slowly walked out, it was unexpectedly the ancient lunatic Shang Yi. His battle armor was shattered, there were blood stains on his shoulders, but his eyes were still as sharp as lightning, still able to tear apart the barrier!  

Even though the Great Barrier was decaying, he held the Sword of the Mortal with such momentum that it still made everyone's heart tremble, sending shivers down their spines. It was actually him who appeared, striding forward and shaking the entire land. His blood boiled and surged, he was unmatched by anyone. Many people's hearts sank.

Was this lunatic truly beyond anyone's control?

Invincible in the Immortal Realm, unrivaled in the Land of the Undying.  

The sound of those footsteps fell upon people's hearts like the beating of a divine drum, transmitting through the curtain. Any living beings nearby were afraid, unable to help but kneel down, their bodies were trembling uncontrollably.  

Even the gods that returned to the mortal realm could not avoid it!  

"We either find a way to kill him or escape to the depths of the universe. He shouldn't be able to survive in reality, right? Is he really invincible?" said Hades Blood Patriarch as he felt palpitations and was intimidated.  

"Father, mother, where are you? For Fang Yuzhu's sake, I seek vengeance!" shouted Demon Lord. Her eyes were slightly red and filled with endless killing intent.  

Although sometimes she provoked Fang Yuzhu, had disputes and quarrels with her, they shared a deep bond. They had once joined forces to kill the Ancient Emperor and supported each other.  

"It's not that bad!" Wang Xuan spoke up.  

Within the Great Barrier, another figure walked slowly and gradually became clear. Her battle attire was slightly tattered, and she wore a bracelet with a black base and white sparkling dots on her wrist.  

She was Fang Yuzhu. She rarely wore armor. Once she did, it meant she had encountered a peerless enemy or was truly going to kill someone. Her black hair fluttered, her eyes deep. She emitted no terrifying aura, appearing calm and serene, completely different from the lunatic Shang Yi.  

"No more fighting, it's a draw!" Shang Yi spoke, his thick black hair stained with blood, his shoulders damaged, bones exposed. Was he struck by the Celestial Bracelet?  

"Let's stick to the agreement. So all those who hold supreme treasures, come here!" Fang Yuzhu spoke. There was also a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. She was bound to be injured when facing the lunatic.  

The two revealed some information. The grand finale of the Peerless Transcendent Battle had come. At least, the two of them would no longer fight to the death. These two could be the most powerful beings in this vast universe. If they stopped, the other transcendents would probably cease hostilities too. 

"Everyone, come join us for a chat!" Shang Yi spoke, his figure much taller than ordinary people, over two meters tall, majestic and robust. Holding the Sword of the Mortal, he exuded a terrifying aura.  

Soon after, the Roaming Ark flew in from the corresponding starry sky of the Great Barrier, arriving in a flash and hovering in the sky. The ark was stained with blood, and the two great peerless transcendent battle armors were torn. Their sworn brothers were in bad shape. Some lie motionless while covered in blood.  

Then, the Ascension Banner appeared, and the Evil Dragon descended with a few others. They were all covered in blood as they engaged in a battle of treasures, injuring both sides. The Divine Palace also flew in.  

"What bad luck, it's actually a nest of evil spirits. Only one was killed!" Two figures appeared, driving the Immortal Umbrella from the depths of the universe in the mortal realm, slicing through the Great Barrier and entering it.  

The Pool of Life appeared as well, descending. Everyone was shocked. There was actually a nest of powerful evil spirits inside the treasure originating from the Technological Life Realm. It seemed that a peerless transcendent existed.  

"Are they ancient evil spirits, or are they the kind of creatures that control spaceships and don't belong to this universe?" Shang Yi, who mostly remained silent and had no interaction with various cultivators, actually asked.  

"We have both types of evil spirits, they were unexpectedly staying together. We managed to kill one with difficulty as they repeatedly provoked us. This is just a preliminary lesson for them!" said the mother of Yan Yan. It must be said that the parents of Demon Lord were very domineering. They said they would kill, and they indeed killed an opponent.  

"Everyone, we are all striving to transcend. Since we are prolonging the myth, natural selection cannot be avoided. The strongest survivors will cooperate in the end. Although we are involved in the battlefield, it is not for revenge but to accelerate this process." An evil spirit spoke, lurking in the Pool of Life and not coming out.  

"Gathering supreme treasures is the way to survive. There have been precedents before. Even if one's cultivation is against the heavens, one cannot refine multiple treasures alone. We need sincere cooperation," said the evil spirit, explaining to everyone.  

The evil spirit continued, "Everyone, as transcendence is coming to an end, let's discuss the new path here. Let us all find a way to transcend the calamity, and move towards the next era together!"  

"We're still missing a Life Essence Furnace, which is very crucial!" exclaimed the evil spirit. 

……

"Everyone, the road ahead is far and long. We'll meet again. Let's strive for the next new era of myth and hope to meet again," said Wang Xuan as he took his leave, preparing to leave.  

Since it was confirmed that Fang Yuzhu was unharmed, still powerful and was truly able to match the ancient sword lunatic, he had nothing to worry about anymore.  

Other than that, with the presence of the shadow couple here and the experts from the Buddhist and Daoist sects jointly controlling the Divine Palace, there should be no life-and-death battles at the Peerless-level anymore.  

He was leaving. There were too many secrets on him. He would wander in the depths of the universe for a while, endure these last few days, and then decide what he would do.  

When transcendence completely ended, as time passed, everyone’s realm would drop. By then, he wouldn't have to worry about those threats anymore. 

"Speak human language!" shouted Demon Lord Yan Yan while glancing at him. Seeing him like this, she always wanted to hit him. Unfortunately, even if her hands itched, she couldn't do anything. She really couldn't suppress it anymore.  

"Speak in a down-to-earth way, Yan Yan. That day, I seemed to hear something about a so-called son-in-law. What does that mean?" Wang Xuan asked. 

Although it was a private transmission, Demon Lord still raised her eyebrows lightly and her heart was pounding faster.

This was really strange, he actually heard bits and pieces of it?

Wang Xuan was very powerful now. He might have captured the transmission.  

"Let me hit you once, and I'll tell you!" replied Demon Lord while looking at him calmly, but she actually felt uneasy on the inside.  

"You've hit me a hundred times in your heart already, which is equivalent to being hit," said Wang Xuan, smiling and preparing to leave.  

"Ah, Little Wang, you're so abnormal. Are you at the Thirteenth Stage? It's such a pity. transcendence ended too quickly and didn't give you enough time. It would have been better if you were born in ancient times!" said the Hades Blood Patriarch, at the moment of parting. He was feeling regretful for him. 

"The Thirteenth Stage?" Demon Lord Yan Yan also became lost in thought, she also felt that he was born in the wrong era. However, she shook her head and said, "Is it really good to be born in ancient times? The First One died miserably, and the one who survived, the sword lunatic who was defeated by him, became invincible in this universe."  

"Little Wang, you have the Godslaying Banner on you. Some say it's likely one of the components of the Dao Harnessing Banner, while others say it's a replica of the Dao Harnessing Banner, but there's no consensus," Zhang Daoling spoke up.  

At the parting moment, he sighed, saying, "Among several treasures, the Dao Harnessing Banner should be respected as the strongest, but it's nowhere to be found. It's highly probable that it's truly destroyed and hasn't been repaired."  

"Zhang Patriarch, is there something you want to say?" asked Wang Xuan, realizing that Old Zhang wanted to tell him something.  

"Well, go to the New World for a stroll. I had once vaguely sensed the aura of the Banner of Severance there, but didn't find it. Since you have the Godslaying Banner in your hand, you can go and take a look. Perhaps you can obtain it with both banners attracting each other," said Zhang Daoling, giving his suggestion.  

Wang Xuan was astonished. He had been looking for the Banner of Severance for a long time, but there was no clue for him at all. He didn't expect Old Zhang to have some clues.  

"I was using a fragment of the Celestial Mirror to observe the New World's land when I accidentally reflected a special aura, but I didn't capture it," said Old Zhang, providing details for Wang Xuan.  

"Now that we're parting, Zhang Patriarch, I also suggest you try your luck at Mount Bu Zhou. What if you enter the Dharma eye of the peerless transcendent spiritual remnant there? If you can become Dao companions with her, you can form the complete Celestial Mirror together," said Wang Xuan, reminding Zhang Daoling again before parting.  

"Looking for a beating, huh?" shouted Zhang Daoling as his face darkened slightly.  

The Hades Blood Patriarch burst into laughter. Little Zhang had always been self-confident and proud, not respecting his elders. But now, it suddenly made him feel happy being teased by a younger newcomer.  

Wang Xuan departed on a silver spaceship. He was really tempted by the Dao Harnessing Banner, but he also knew that even if he found it, he might not be able to assemble the first supreme treasure.  

Because whether it's a component or not, there has never been a consensus. In fact, a long time ago, someone obtained both the Godslaying Banner and the Banner of Severance simultaneously but failed to merge them in the end.  

"Let the thought of repairing the Celestial Mirror go. It can't be restored. It's broken, and it's not a component that can fuse with each other. Even if it is remade, it may not be able to reappear," Zhang Daoling sighed. Then, they watched as Wang Xuan and Celestial Sword Maiden disappeared.  

"Big demoness, take care of yourself. You're really weak, physically and mentally. Maybe we'll meet again someday!" The smiling face of the Celestial Sword Maiden appeared on the large screen, waving goodbye.  

This time, they encountered interstellar pirates on the road, and the little mechanical bear opened fire vigorously, capturing several high-performance spaceships. They once again extracted active metals, armed their spaceship, and improved the performance of the spaceship even more.  

Next, they went on their familiar route, speeding away. Wang Xuan was in a hurry, he longed for the Banner of Severance and wanted to go to the New World. What if he could witness the reappearance of the Dao Harnessing Banner? 

Taking advantage of the moment, the peerless transcendents convened to discuss the new path and the new myth. He acted swiftly, as there was currently no danger to speak of.  

"The Great Barrier, the Immortal Realm, are still quite resilient. They are still holding up even after the Peerless Transcendent Battle and after the collision of supreme treasures. They did not collapse immediately even though they have decayed and extinguished so much," he remarked.  

Many days later, they approached the New World, and the Immortal Realm corresponding to it was still intact. Although they had passed by several times, Wang Xuan hadn't truly returned since leaving with Chen Yongjie from the New World to return to their homeland. At this moment, the silver spaceship avoided various monitoring systems and stealthily arrived, landing on the New World.  

"Such powerful performance? It arrived in silence," Wang Xuan praised the mechanical bear.  

"Of course, this was reconstructed from the wreckage of a spaceship left behind by the evil spirits. Black technology was utilized here. However, I just scanned and discovered that on this planet, there's a high probability of an ancient evil spirit’s spaceship wreckage, perhaps even a mothership," it said solemnly.  

"There’s no need to complicate things, I'm here for the Banner of Severance," Wang Xuan said. After arriving here, he stood in a primitive jungle and straightaway activated the Godslaying Banner. He exerted all his effort, hoping to resonate with the corresponding banner and possibly find one of the components of the supreme treasure.  

"Since some beings have returned to this New World, there are not a few immortals and transcendents here," Celestial Sword Maiden spoke up. Just in this mountain range, she saw and sensed some cottages, indicating people living in seclusion.  

"After returning, some strive to integrate into this era, while others dwell in the wilderness, living a reclusive life. Each chose differently," Wang Xuan said. 

Wang Xuan had complex feelings about this planet. He had fought against the Sun Family's conglomerate here and battled demons and monsters here. He left behind many footprints. This time, he could perhaps see some old acquaintances. Some people hadn't left and hadn't ventured into deep space.  

The great banner fluttered, and when he exerted all his power as a Thirteenth Stage, the Godslaying Banner emitted a soaring light, with mysterious fluctuations rippling.  

"Hmm? There's some slight resonance indeed. The Banner of Severance is on this land!" exclaimed Wang Xuan, rejoicing and filled with anticipation. He really wanted to merge the Godslaying Banner and the Banner of Severance.
