Chapter 657: Chapter657-The Eternal Leaf from the Truth Universe
Suggwoth and the others constructed layer upon layer of defensive lines outside the Endless Starlight Isle, like an iron vise clamping down on its throat.
Yet even more troops were being redeployed to assemble in the Eastern Starfield.
After all, the Endless Starlight Isle was protected by the Endless Starlight Shield, making it difficult to shake for the time being, but the other starfields were not within the protection of that colossal barrier.
Aurek returned to the Blade Sea Sanctum.
Now, with nearly ten million mega-trillion Emperor Points in hand, he pondered for a moment before deciding to further upgrade the authority of the Void Warlock first.
Once it stepped into the rank of quasi-Eternal Divine Revelator, the power of the Void Warlock would become unimaginably terrifying.
...
[Void Warlock authority upgraded to Level 26.
Produces 416 million Level 26 Void Warlocks per day.]
[Emperor Points required for the next upgrade: 400,000 mega-trillion.]
[New skill unlocked: Boundless Starry Sky.]
[Note: A Level 26 Void Warlock is comparable to a quasi-Eternal Sage, having fused with the order of spatial laws and the origin of space itself...]
...
Another summon unit at the quasi-Eternal Sage level had been born!
Yet Aurek’s heart stirred very little.
The previous four hundred million quasi-Eternal Sages had already been enough to sweep through everything. Looking across the entire endless Star Sea, there likely no longer existed a single force capable of matching such a legion.
That feeling of invincibility only made him calmer and more composed.
But he knew very well that this was far from the end.
At the very least, there were still too many mysteries waiting for him to unravel.
For example, what exactly was the origin of that "existence" within the Dark Abyss?
How great a threat was it to the Crossbridge Divine Court?
Had that fragment of oak branch already been subdued by Pantheon?
The powerful being who had thrown it into this Star Sea to stir chaos clearly had some deeper purpose behind it—but what exactly was that purpose?
Where had that mysterious supreme existence truly come from?
And what world-shaking secret was sealed within the twelvefold Aetherian Sanctuary?
Even now, he still knew absolutely nothing about any of these questions, and that displeased him immensely.
Because of that, he urgently needed to advance—needed to push his own level to an even higher plane.
Within his domain, he would not allow any secret or power beyond his control to exist.
Moreover, the gateway to the so-called Truth Universe region had not even opened yet, and still something had already descended ahead of time. That was by no means a good omen.
At the very least, he had to raise himself to that height first before he would be qualified to pry into the truth hidden within it.
He activated the Time Domain, accelerating the flow of time to an extreme, madly consuming Emperor Points to raise his level as much as possible.
At the same time, he devoted himself to mastering the Hand of Fate, the Thousand-Sword Judgment Domain, the Myriad Judgment Domain, the Art of Creation, and the supreme divine art known as Dimensional Vision.
The invisible wall of light evolved from Dimensional Vision contained limitless dimensional power.
It was a dimensional-reduction divine art that surpassed all limits and stood above the laws themselves, capable of crushing supreme existences down into insects.
Absolute defense. Absolute suppression.
This was the divine art Aurek valued the most.
Fortunately, he simultaneously wielded multiple powers—space, time, destiny, fortune, and more—otherwise, he likely would not even have been able to touch its deeper layers.
As his strength continued to rise, Dimensional Vision would also grow without limit.
Once he stepped into a supreme rank beyond Eternal Sage, then beyond that invisible wall of light, even Eternal Sages would be no more than ants!
...
Meanwhile, in the region of the Truth Universe—
Above the core dome, that sacred pillar of light erupted with a supreme and eternal aura, drawing the vast and boundless Fate River toward itself.
The radiance flowing across that "leaf" was reflected within the Fate River, while an elusive and mysterious force—one that surpassed the limit of all living beings’ perception—quietly began to linger there.
...
"The secret of eternity!"
"This is the aura of eternity that the supreme existence once spoke of!"
Beneath the reflected light stood the Primogenitor of Melda from the Desolate Ancient Era. Feeling this profound mystery beyond the scope of the Star Sea, his eyes burned with ultimate fervor.
Several ancient taboos from the Forbidden Domain of the Gods, beings who had come close to the Eternal Sage rank—the First Forbidden Lord, the Coffin-Burial Monarch, the Heavenly-Eyed Seer, and other experts—also rushed forward at top speed.
Everyone understood that the leaf was enough to break the shackles of the Fate River and achieve true eternity!
The moment they moved, many taboo experts who had followed them also began drawing closer.
The experts of the Rivera Demon Race from the Primordial River Cosmos, the Star River Sovereign—disciple of the Lord of the Source River—the Imperial Sovereign of the Imperial Authority Heaven, the Azure Sage of the Azure Sacred Domain, the Equilibrium Sage of the Celestial Balance Sacred Domain, and many other mighty figures renowned throughout the Star Sea all charged forward as well.
Within the Endless Starlight Isle—
Artharion, the Lord of Oblivion, and the others who had just suffered a crushing defeat, along with powerful beings from the Chaos Origin Point, the Primordial Era, the Desolate Ancient Era, and other epochs, all opened Star-realm Gates and crossed through at their utmost speed.
And in the Truth Universe region—
That white-haired old man quietly observed it all.
Behind him, the ancient taboos of the Primordial Race were also staring fixedly at the leaf.
The burning greed, urgency, and desire in their eyes were almost impossible to conceal.
But the white-haired elder remained silent from beginning to end.
This elder was none other than the Primordial Elder, the oldest living being in the great universe. Bearing the endless fortune of the Star Sea, he had been chosen by destiny to ascend into eternity, becoming the most ancient Eternal Sage.
He had once been fortunate enough to pay homage to that supreme existence and had received no small amount of guidance.
No one could dare underestimate his prestige or supreme status.
"Progenitor! This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity."
"Experts from all corners of the Star Sea have already rushed here. If we wait until they arrive, seizing it will become far more difficult!"
The Starry Sky Sage of the Primordial Race was frantic with urgency.
The Primordial Elder said nothing more. Instead, he silently sensed every corner of the Star Sea.
Samsara Heaven. Arcane Godsea. The domain of the Rivera Demon Race...
Then he looked once more toward the leaf.
"Primordial Race—withdraw the entire clan."
"Progenitor?!"
The Starry Sky Sage was instantly filled with unwillingness.
The secret of eternity was right before his eyes. Though he understood that some ominous danger might be hidden within it, what if this truly was a heaven-sent opportunity within easy reach?
If obtained, one could ascend into the Eternal Sage rank, perhaps even rise above eternity itself and utterly dominate this great universe!
He could not resist that temptation.
Even if it meant throwing himself into a flame like a moth, he had to try.
"Progenitor! The choice is mine to make. I am willing to risk my life to test it!"
The Starry Sky Sage could endure no longer. He was the first to rush out, activating an Origin Relic as he flew toward the leaf.
The other experts of the Primordial Race hesitated for a moment, but many of them gritted their teeth and followed.
"Alas—!"
The Primordial Elder let out a bitter sigh.
How could he not know that hidden schemes likely lay behind all this?
And yet greed was the original sin that even the oldest wisdom could not suppress.
He had already sensed that Samsara Heaven had gone completely silent. For it to make such a decisive move at a time like this, it must have perceived something highly unusual.
"Even the Primordial Race has made its move!"
Seeing the Starry Sky Sage and the other taboo beings act, the ancient experts who had been lurking in wait could no longer hold themselves back and rushed out one after another.
One reclusive quasi-Eternal Sage after another tore through the walls of the universe, throwing themselves at the leaf like madmen.
The Primogenitor of Melda made his move as well.
The First Forbidden Lord, the Coffin-Burial Monarch, the Heavenly-Eyed Seer, the Star River Sovereign... all of them charged out.
Using supreme methods to resist that unmatched pressure of the highest order, they took the Fate River as their path and advanced toward that divine light.
The closer they drew, the more intoxicating the holy, eternal aura released by the leaf became. It was like pouring a bucket of oil onto the bonfire of greed—blazing flames erupted wildly within every soul.
Countless figures hurled themselves forward like moths to a flame!
Even the two old men upon the Arcane Godsea, the existence within the halo of the Primordial River Cosmos, and the pairs of eyes hidden within several origin universes...
At this very moment, every taboo existence had locked its gaze firmly upon that leaf.
