Chương 275: Transcendence (Part 31)

Spirit Divine King fell into a deep struggle. He did not believe Su Chen had any good intentions. Yet just as Su Chen had said, he had no other choice. In the end, he could only choose to trust him. Spirit Divine King's shoulders slumped, his spirit deflated.

"You should know the legend of a True Immortal's fall." Su Chen's eyes brightened.

"Is this universe connected to a True Immortal?" True Immortals were existences of unimaginable power. Spirit Divine King shook his head. Su Chen suspected the man was toying with him.

"When that True Immortal fell, he left behind three thousand strands of Immortal Qi. Refining even one strand would allow one to gain a trace of Immortal aura. If someone could refine all three thousand strands, they might achieve immortality," Spirit Divine King continued. Su Chen gave him a meaningful look. And he still claimed it had nothing to do with a True Immortal? Spirit Divine King went on, "Long ago, a supreme expert rose to prominence.

He was born with the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Physique, undying and indestructible. He reached the peak of the Great Dao and collected one thousand eight hundred strands of Immortal Qi. Having comprehended the mysteries of life and death, he was on the verge of achieving immortality.

"But… he encountered a powerful enemy. On the eve of his ascension, he was besieged. Outnumbered, he ultimately perished, his body and Dao destroyed." One thousand eight hundred strands of Immortal Qi and mastery over the secrets of life and death. Su Chen felt that Spirit Divine King perfectly matched this description. Spirit Divine King smiled bitterly.

"You think he was me? He was not me, and I am not him. That Reincarnation Emperor Lord created a heaven-defying method while comprehending life and death, hoping to be reborn from within death itself. He succeeded, yet he also failed. I possess some of his memories, but I do not consider myself to be him."

"As for this universe, it was once formed from a portion of his corpse—a forbidden universe with limitless potential. You were truly fortunate…" Spirit Divine King said with a mix of envy and jealousy.

"This realm contains great opportunities and even greater secrets. I have reincarnated countless times yet never once touched the Universe Heart, only for you to obtain it in a single life." Su Chen was surprised. He had not expected Spirit Divine King to possess such a background. His luck, however, seemed exceptionally poor. Time and again, on the path of refining universes, he had been defeated by others, his traces eventually erased.

This universe had actually been formed from a fragment of Spirit Divine King's corpse in his first life. Truly, fate played cruel tricks. If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it's taken without permission from the author. Report it. The peerless expert who had once gathered one thousand eight hundred strands of Immortal Qi must have been at least a Thirty-Five Tribulations Ruler or stronger. This was the true secret of this world. In the Void Cosmic Sea, the origin of a universe was extremely important.

One born from the body of a former supreme expert was undoubtedly among the highest quality. It could produce countless heavenly geniuses, accelerate one's own cultivation, and offer a far higher ceiling. Su Chen kept his word. He severed Spirit Divine King's foundations and sent him into an untouched original universe. It was a forbidden zone. Accompanied by a miserable, blood-curdling scream, Su Chen thought to himself, "Truly an unlucky fellow." Spirit Divine King met his end.

In that forbidden zone, a supreme expert lifted his head, a trace of curiosity in his eyes. The air today tasted rather sweet.... Su Chen continued his cultivation. With Su Chen's guidance and their own exceptional comprehension, Di Chan and Chi Yao—reincarnated at the Three Tribulations Ruler realm—quickly shattered their barriers and achieved transcendence. They both reached the Nine Tribulations Ruler realm. Nine-star talent was extraordinarily rare.

Di Chan joined the Dark Night Royal Court, a transcendent force that ranked among the most powerful organizations in the entire Flying Immortal Land. Chi Yao entered a native faction of the Void Cosmic Sea. After all, the Flying Immortal Land ultimately belonged to the Void Cosmic Sea's domain. To Su Chen's surprise, the long-disappeared Qin Wujie had joined the Chaos God Hall. This was another powerful organization within the Void Cosmic Sea.

Its members were few in number, but every being possessed a Chaos-type physique or talent, and all were at least Seven Tribulations Rulers. A new vibration rippled through the mysterious space as another Ruler Battlefield opened. Su Chen entered the fray.

"Nine Tribulations peak? You're actually a peak Nine Tribulations Ruler!" Su Chen faced yet another ambush from his old enemies in the Main God Hall. This time, they had dispatched an elite team specifically to assassinate him. Over ten million years, Su Chen's cultivation advanced from the Six Tribulations Ruler realm to the peak of the Nine Tribulations Ruler realm.

He slaughtered his way through the battlefield, breaking through to the Ten Tribulations Ruler realm with ease and eliminating countless powerful foes. His name spread far and wide.

"Xie Liuyun has fallen?" In the Ruler Battlefield, no being was safe from death—not even Immortal Spirits from the End Times Immortal Domain. Xie Liuyun had died inside the battlefield. Su Chen learned of this only after he had withdrawn. The news drove Su Chen to train even more relentlessly. His cultivation reached the Twelve Tribulations Ruler realm, placing him among the mid-tier powerhouses of the entire Flying Immortal Land.

Unfortunately, ever since Su Chen's emergence, no new Immortal Spirits from the End Times Immortal Domain had entered the Flying Immortal Land. After Xie Liuyun's death, the number of End Times Immortal Spirits continued to dwindle. Su Chen had a growing sense of unease. This was no coincidence. Someone was deliberately hunting the Immortal Spirits of the End Times Immortal Domain. Another ten million years passed.

Su Chen rampaged across the Ruler Battlefield, pushing his cultivation all the way to the Fifteen Tribulations Ruler realm.

"What? Dugu Wushuang is dead too?" Su Chen was shocked. He knew Dugu Wushuang's true strength—he had been a Twenty-Seven Tribulations Ruler. His death dealt a massive blow to every Immortal Spirit in the End Times Immortal Domain. Someone was systematically hunting Immortal Spirits!
