Da Xuan Martial Saint

Chapter 1532: Chapter 735: Transcendence (Final) (3)

A newly ascended Supreme Venerable, unless choosing an extremely perilous path, actively merging with the rules, manifesting myriad forms, couldn’t possibly become so weakened in the scant duration of one cosmic cycle, with the Self Life Star barely holding on!

Chen Yao knew that Chen Mu was following his will, adhering to his own path, a kind of resolve. She could only worry about this, and had no other actions to take, nor could she interfere, nor would she. She would only respect him, hoping in her heart that Chen Mu would finally succeed.

...

Unknown how much time had passed.

Boom!!!

The End of Tribulation in the universe began again.

Star Rivers in various places gradually collapsed, countless stars shattered, swallowed by a pitch-black singularity, and then they pulled each other in.

Here, Creation, Void, Time all collapsed, everything turned to chaos, merging into one point.

The entire universe began massive crumble.

The Star Dome universe started from the outside, collapsing piece by piece, aggregating piece by piece, finally spreading towards the Primordial Star in the center of the universe. Above the Primordial Star, countless living beings wailed but could not escape the fate of obliteration.

"It’s here."

Within the Heavenly Venerate Hall, Chen Yue opened her eyes, a sigh emerging from her eyes.

Her innate talent was ultimately far inferior to Chen Yao, even after Chen Mu’s nurturing and countless fortuitous encounters. Yet, exhausting the time of one cosmic cycle, she still couldn’t achieve the status of Dao Venerable.

Failing to become a Dao Venerable meant she was still unable to rely on herself to withstand the End of Tribulation in the universe, needing Chen Mu’s protection. But now, she also knew from Chen Yao about Chen Mu’s state, that he sacrificed himself to walk the sparse path of transcendence, and in this End of Tribulation, he might not have the strength to protect others.

However,

Beneath Chen Mu’s Heavenly Venerate Hall, there was Chen Yao, this newly ascended Venerable, who could still protect a few people, but the number was indeed very few, at most protecting only around ten people through this End of Tribulation.

The End of Tribulation descended, the Primordial Star began collapsing. The living beings belonging to Chen Mu’s Heavenly Venerate Hall are now gathered inside the hall, waiting for the final moment to arrive. They all gaze toward the nine heavens, some in despair, some hoping, some sighing.

And some face it with nonchalance.

"It’s here."

Chen Yao stood in the deepest part of the Heavenly Venerate Hall, sensing the impact of the End of Tribulation finally spreading here. The Primordial Star collapsed and perished in an instant.

Yet, the entire Heavenly Venerate Hall, despite being forged from Primordial Marvels, did not shatter under the impact of the End of Tribulation. But that force still directly spread into the Heavenly Venerate Hall, reaching all living beings within who had not achieved Dao Venerable status.

"..."

Chen Yao looked at this scene, sighing lightly in her heart.

Among these people, many were brought by Chen Mu from the last cosmic cycle to this cosmic cycle, and many were Chen Mu’s old acquaintances, even some she had accepted as direct disciples, and some of her own offspring and bloodline.

Yet she could not protect so many.

The living beings she could protect numbered only a maximum of ten, the quota was too few. She could only choose among them, only those like Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue, and others closest to her and Chen Mu could attain this privilege.

The rest, she could only watch helplessly as they were lost to the End of Tribulation in the universe.

However,

Almost as the End of Tribulation came, about to cover the entire Heavenly Venerate Hall in an instant.

Suddenly, the power of the End of Tribulation abruptly halted, then in a peculiar form, silently disappeared and quickly receded, disappearing without a trace from within the Heavenly Venerate Hall.

"Hm?"

Chen Yao, ready to act, was instantly astonished seeing this scene.

But she quickly reacted, looking swiftly beyond the nine heavens, towards the end of the Origin River. Yet, upon looking through this line of sight, she became even more dazed with a look of unprecedented surprise and suspicion.

Because,

In her vision, at the end of the Origin River, originally the Self Life Stars of the five Supreme Venerables, the slightly dim giant Life Star belonging to Chen Mu had, unknown when, disappeared!

It’s not just that Self Life Star.

Now, under Chen Yao’s perception, she couldn’t sense any trace of Chen Mu’s existence anymore, neither Chen Mu’s will, nor his dao, nor the causality Chen Mu left behind, everything disappeared completely!

Even as she tried to trace back through time, to glimpse the past and see what had happened, she couldn’t capture any trace of Chen Mu in the past timeline either!

"Could it be..."

In her astonishment, Chen Yao’s eyes filled with indescribable joy.

She knew that such a bizarre situation was definitely not a fall, because Dao Venerables wouldn’t fall, their existence was eternal and unchanging, not meeting disappearance, persisting along the Origin River indefinitely.

The occurrence of such a bizarre situation associated with Chen Mu, all traces and causality along with Creation entangling had all disappeared entirely, there was only one explanation: Chen Mu had completely freed himself from the constraints of the Origin River!

He had transcended the Supreme rules, transcended the Origin Dao!

Able to accomplish such a feat, evidently there was only one answer.

Transcendence!

Chen Mu succeeded, he stepped forth, transcended beyond this universe, transcended beyond Supreme rules, having reached the other shore, attaining a Realm that could not be perceived, known, or understood in this world.

At this moment, not only did Chen Yao notice this anomaly, but the other Dao Venerables within the universe also collectively shifted their gazes towards the end of the Origin River in this instant, all revealing shock and astonishment.

"Succeeded."

Cang Mang Venerable seemed both dazed and confused. He admired Chen Mu’s decisiveness and choice, but did not believe Chen Mu would succeed, nor did he feel Chen Mu’s path was correct.

Yet, looking at the fact, even he could no longer perceive Chen Mu’s existence. Clearly there was only one answer, Chen Mu had stepped beyond, reaching true transcendence.

Primordial Lord, looked with mixed emotion towards the end of the Origin River.

Primordial Palace Master sighed.

The Island Master of Time and Space sat solitary on the side of a lonely island. His dim eyes revealed a faint ripple, then a look of sudden realization and liberation, subsequently his form quietly dispersed, along with the entire island vanishing.

His Self Life Star silently fell into the Origin River, merging within.

All the Dao Venerables observing the Origin River witnessed this scene, knowing the Island Master of Time and Space had been thoroughly eroded by the Great Dao, becoming part of it, yet at this moment, none cared about this matter.

What everyone was thinking was almost solely one thought.

Chen Mu, transcended.

That transcendence beyond the other shore realm, what exactly is it, and what sights are witnessed in that realm?
