Chapter 1252 - 332: The Final Move

Chapter 1252: Chapter 332: The Final Move

"In this world, who has never truly been young?"

"The River of Time is like a great wave washing the sands, countless heroes surge up with the tide, each with their own unique color, their own Essence, Qi, and Spirit."

"If one loses oneself, how can one still be called a hero?"

On the empty ground to the side, Jiumu Qing, as the contestant for the second round of the arena, was treating her injuries. Watching the development of the battle in the sky, her heart stirred, and she began to miss the past,

"There used to be rumors that the brutal slave trader Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Venerate was once a kind, tearful young boy, supported by countless beasts, a radiant and immaculate King of Ten Thousand Beasts."

"Jiumu Qing was a blacksmith who loved forging, far from being this violent and extreme as she is now. Zhongluan was a cook, stepping onto the path of cultivation only to search for the legendary most delicious Time Squid. The Holy Spirit was a truly kind father, bearing all, embracing Heaven and Earth..."

Jiumu Qing muttered in a low voice, a rare trace of nostalgia surfacing on her face. "We... after coming to the future, we giants of the Immortal Realm... we’ve long since stopped being ourselves."

All around was a grassland, the wind brushing the grass with a rustling sound, carrying a sense of tranquility and peace.

"This era, this kind of era... the Immortal Realm, the Netherworld, they’re truly nauseating." She gazed distantly at the sky, at that Immortal Venerable Changzhen who had been dug out, that super Monster who imposed an immense pressure on the entire future,

"Chang Zhen? Who exactly are you? You should be a Monster who rose and grew up in the era after we left. Are you another version of us? Before your life was twisted, what kind of brilliant story did you have?"

Jiumu Qing withdrew her gaze and brought it back before her.

Su Yuniang, covering the mountains and plains, sat cross-legged. Their Inheritance of the Firewood continued unbroken, linking them into one, with Jiu Shui beside them teaching.

And that National Guardian Divine Soldier Su Yuniang under Jiu Shui’s command was also berating these small fry, striving to push their growth.

"Why haven’t you succeeded yet, why haven’t you succeeded yet."

"Small fry, small fry."

In the midst of Su Yuniang’s curses, she suddenly turned her head.

"What?? They’re that fast!?" The Su Yuniangs looked toward those two existences who had already stepped into that realm and plunged into the battlefield.

...

...

Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Venerate and Xin Xichen suddenly stepped out of the battlefield and began to expel the Half Celestial Phenomenon positions.

As soon as they landed, they tried to seize the "market" shares in the hands of Immortal Venerable Changzhen and the others, grabbing Destiny supplies from Xi Rong, the Divine Court, the Buddha Country... and the like.

They started proving the Dao on the spot.

They knew better than anyone that intervening in the battlefield at this moment was meaningless; directly taking the chance to prove the Dao could settle everything in one decisive blow.

The sky churned with black mist.

The world crumbled and shattered.

At such a doomsday moment, when the future ushered in its end, countless rays of radiance flickered upon the two of them.

As if all the spotlights between Heaven and Earth had fallen upon them, the holy, sacred light seemed to pierce through the ruins of this battlefield.

They were like heroes of the era, bathing in the glory of Heaven and Earth, becoming Heaven and Earth themselves, the final saviors.

"Courting death!!!" The endless army joined forces in a furious strike, fiercely cleaving toward the two of them.

Clang!!!

"Your opponent is me!" The countless faces of the Golden God showed anger. The Shadow Crocodile bubbles dropped by countless enemies had also swollen his army to an unbelievable scale, blocking that blow.

The thousands of thousand-zhang arms of the Golden God smashed heavily into the opponent’s Qi Blades, raising countless tricolored flames.

"You actually really stopped them, you really dragged it out successfully." Standing amid countless nebulae, Immortal Venerable Changzhen revealed a trace of dejection and helplessness.

Obviously, it was just a little bit more.

Obviously, just a little bit more...

Seeing the two Half Celestial Phenomenon existences rushing back, these newly-arrived opponents, Immortal Venerable Changzhen more or less knew things could no longer be accomplished.

If one could appear, two could, which meant three or four would soon follow.

There was no need to test further!

He already knew that this Golden God would firmly drag him down and let the other two break through.

The Oath Master Immortal Venerate would be born among them.

This battle, by all appearances, had its defeat sealed.

In that instant he couldn’t help thinking, if he hadn’t gone to kill Xi Rong before, hadn’t swept across this era, and instead gone to prove the Dao directly, he would have succeeded long ago; how would anyone have stolen the Venerable Position from him?

Yet this Monster actually managed to hold him back for so long...

A single person actually blocked all the prehistory army.

There was simply no time to catch a breath.

"However, since I’ve abandoned the Oath Master path, I can still try to prove an even stronger path of Auspiciousness."

Immortal Venerable Changzhen quietly watched the two future heroes proving the Dao in the distance, completely unconcerned with their furious glares at him, then suddenly gave a soft laugh:

"You two, have you decided who will take that step?"

"There is only one seat for the Venerable Position. The one who succeeds lives forever, Undying through myriad Tribulations, and the one who fails..."

He glanced at Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Venerate and Xin Xichen and said calmly, "Once you step onto this path, if you don’t become Dao, you are destined to lose beyond doubt. There’s no turning back. One of you will utterly die today."

"We will make our own decision." Xin Xichen refused to accept the provocation.

"Hmph, if I die, then so be it." A trace of resolve flashed across the delicate, androgynous face of Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Venerate.

"You have excellent morale. It seems this fellow has truly rallied your Essence, Qi, and Spirit, hurling yourselves forward, fearless of death." Immortal Venerable Changzhen’s expression collected as his gaze bypassed Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Venerate and Xin Xichen and fell upon the Golden God blocking his path:

"Don’t get cocky. They still need a final bit of time to prove the Dao. One move. I still have one last move."

"If you can block it, then it counts as your win."

As he spoke, Immortal Venerable Changzhen erupted with terrifying power, his entire body trembling.

A tricolored pillar of light shot up from his body, completely submerging the surrounding nebulae.

The pillar of light thrust up into the heights of the future All Heavens and Myriad Realms, rapidly twisting and deforming, then turning into a gigantic, pitch-black, twisted humanoid figure. The entire star river was like mud and sand, and he stood within it, like the sole Venerable God above and below Heaven.

This twisted, colossal humanoid slightly crouched, taking a basic Mortal martial arts stance, slowly settling into a horse stance, drawing one fist slowly back to his waist.

Step, twist the waist, swing the fist!

His entire body suddenly threw a punch, and the world began to blur.

The entire future shook.

The whole world was like a giant bucket of water into which a huge, red-hot iron sphere was suddenly thrown; it instantly began to boil, and the worlds of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms splashed up like boiling water.

In that instant, almost every Cultivator instinctively gave rise to a single thought:

Doomsday is coming.

Whether this blow can be blocked or not, our "future" will be destroyed because of it.

All over the world, countless cries of rage and despair rang out—"Immortal Ships, hurry, get on the large Immortal Ships," "Load the Civilization to the brim, run!" "It’s over, a lunatic, this guy’s a lunatic"—and waves of shouting echoed across the world.

"This punch carries all of my power." He grinned, revealing traces of cruelty and madness. "Die, die, all of you just die."

"I’ve lost my life; what right do you have to break free from their hands..." With a low growl, the power of the ultimate erupted in an instant.
