Chapter 504 - 264: Eternal Night Monarch, Rank-11 Life Breakthrough Technique

"I never thought the Tier Nine Mutant Beasts that plagued us for so many years would all be taken care of just like that."

"Yeah, if you count the time spent in the Cosmic Relics, it must have been at least tens of thousands of years."

"I’ll start encoding the genes from these Tier Nine Mutant Beast corpses as quickly as possible. I’ll do my best to cultivate new, powerful Mutant Beasts that humanity can command soon!"

On Pluto.

Gu Tiandu and the others gazed at the corpses on the ground, discussing how to handle the aftermath.

Wang Xiao said,

"Yes. While I was on the extermination mission, I discovered a strange celestial body. It captures people and transports them to a special location. Even I was powerless to resist it."

"The last few Tier Nine Mutant Beasts were captured by that very star."

"If you see it, make sure you steer clear. Whatever you do, don’t go in!"

He explained the general situation regarding the Cosmic Star to Gu Tiandu and the others.

However, he concealed the fact that the entire Cosmos was about to enter the Silent Extinction Stage.

Even if he told Gu Tiandu and the others, it wouldn’t help. It would only give them more to worry about.

Besides, although the Cosmos was about to enter its Silent Extinction Stage, that was on a timescale of potentially tens of millions of years.

To the Cosmos, that might be but a fleeting moment.

But for humanity, it was an incredibly long stretch of time.

Wang Xiao had more than enough of an opportunity to advance to become a Tier Fourteen Life in tens of millions of years.

Or, he could obtain the Star Crystal from the Cosmic Star and enter the Unobservable Cosmos.

When that time came, he would naturally be able to take Gu Tiandu and the others into his Rune Heaven and Earth, allowing everyone from Earth to escape with him!

Gu Tiandu breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really never expected that the star system where our Earth is located would have such a strange planet."

"Thankfully, now that the issue with the Tier Nine Mutant Beasts is resolved, we can explore the entire star system without anything holding us back."

Wang Xiao said,

"Everyone, Earth should be safe from major trouble for now. I need to leave this star system for a while."

He had already resolved the issue of the Tier Nine Mutant Beasts.

As for the other Life Planets, none of them had beings stronger than a Tier Nine Life.

Furthermore, these Life Planets didn’t possess the ability to travel between the stars, so they naturally couldn’t discover Earth’s existence.

Therefore, Earth was basically free from any danger.

He could now set aside his concerns and head for Wuji Mountain.

After all—

Wuji Mountain and Earth’s star system were separated by tens of thousands of other star systems.

He naturally had to set out in advance, lest any mishaps occur on the way.

Besides, he could also take the opportunity to explore other star systems along the way.

He might even stumble upon some fortuitous encounters.

A glimmer flickered in Gu Tiandu’s eyes.

"Are you heading to that Daoist’s star system?!"

He had heard Wang Xiao speak of the Daoist before and knew Wang Xiao had promised to deliver something for him to another star system.

Wang Xiao nodded.

"Yes. Wuji Mountain is over ten thousand star systems away from Earth. It’s time to set out."

"However, I’ll leave an avatar behind on Earth as a precaution. Although the avatar won’t possess my Self-Enlightenment Light, it will be sufficient to handle any sudden incidents!"

Gu Tiandu sighed in relief.

"Alright. You go on ahead, and be careful. Don’t worry about Earth. We will protect it!"

He couldn’t help but feel a little sentimental.

’The young man he had personally chosen for the God Creation Plan to refine Earth... has now become the first person to break through to become a Tier Ten Life and step out of Earth’s own star system!’

The other Tier Nine Life also spoke up after hearing Wang Xiao.

"Didn’t that Daoist tell you to deliver the item only after you reached the level of a Tier Eleven Life? There’s no need to rush."

"That’s right. We know absolutely nothing about this Daoist. You have to be extremely careful on this journey."

"You can never be too cautious, Wang Xiao. You must be careful!"

Wang Xiao nodded.

"I know. When the time comes, even after I arrive in Wuji Mountain’s star system, I won’t deliver the item in person. I’ll have an avatar go instead."

He wasn’t particularly worried about it.

After all—

If Wuji Mountain really did prove hostile, he could always hide in the Cultivation Land within the Book of Space-Time.

Given the power of the Book of Space-Time, no one should be able to threaten him as long as they hadn’t surpassed the level of a Tier Twelve Life.

If worse came to worst, he could even physically travel to another star system to escape.

Gu Tiandu said,

"Wang Xiao has always acted with prudence. Since he has decided to go to Wuji Mountain, he must have made thorough preparations."

"We just need to protect Earth and wait for Wang Xiao to come back."

Wang Xiao said,

"Don’t worry. At my current speed, I should be able to travel to Wuji Mountain and be back in about a year, assuming nothing unexpected happens."

His Divine Thought could now cover an entire star system.

He could cross tens of billions of light-years in under an hour.

Even with a distance of tens of thousands of star systems, Wang Xiao believed he could reach his destination in no time.

He now truly possessed the power to traverse the cosmos at will.

Of course, in the grand scheme of the Cosmos, he was still not strong enough.

He might stand a chance in a fight against a Tier Eleven Life.

But if he faced a Tier Twelve Life, he could only rely on the Book of Space-Time to escape.

"Alright. Our power is far too inferior to yours, so there’s not much we can do to help. We can only wish you a safe journey," Gu Tiandu said with a smile.

Wang Xiao said,

"You have all helped me a great deal. Once my Cultivation reaches a sufficient Realm, I will forge a path forward for all of you!"

’After all, without the help of Gu Tiandu and the others, he never would have reached this Realm so quickly.’
