Chapter 525 - 274: The Transformation of the Book of Space-Time, Dimensional Strike

However.

He discovered that the only destroyed cosmos was a full fifty million cosmoses away from him.

If he traveled there directly, it would likely take several hundred years.

’Can I just tear through the cosmos and reach this destroyed one directly?!’

Wang Xiao couldn’t help but ask.

The Book of Space-Time quickly sent a message:

"Insufficient energy for long-distance travel..."

Wang Xiao sighed. It seemed there was no shortcut.

Fortunately, there was still about a thousand years until the Grand Trial of the Myriad Realms.

The round trip should be more than enough time.

SWOOSH—

Wang Xiao didn’t linger. His body transformed into a streak of light, tearing through layer after layer of Space as he flew toward the destroyed cosmos the Book of Space-Time had indicated.

「Two hundred years later.」

After tearing through the barrier of a cosmos, Wang Xiao finally entered a cosmos of Silent Extinction.

This cosmos had no concept of Time, Space, or anything else.

Everything had turned to the Void!

The moment Wang Xiao entered this cosmos, he felt an overwhelming power surge toward him.

This power was immensely strong, even surpassing the power of his River of Destiny.

It felt as if it could obliterate his entire River of Destiny.

His expression shifted slightly as he immediately activated the Chaos Cyan Lotus.

In an instant.

The Chaos Cyan Lotus bloomed with a dazzling purple light.

The next moment.

A purple lotus leaf suddenly unfurled, sheltering Wang Xiao within it.

The surrounding power that annihilated everything vanished instantly.

’With my current power as a Tier Eleven Life form, I still can’t withstand the Silent Extinction of a cosmos.’

’That’s because the Silent Extinction of a cosmos also targets the River of Time. Even the River of Time itself returns to the Void!’

’It’s impossible to resist a cosmic Silent Extinction without first escaping the River of Time.’

’Fortunately, the power of an Immortal Object is comparable to that of a Tier Twelve Life form, which is enough to protect me!’

Wang Xiao’s Divine Thought swept out, and he soon discovered the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group left behind after the cosmos’s demise, containing the energy of the entire former cosmos.

Without the slightest hesitation, his figure flickered, and he quickly arrived beside the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group.

Vast torrents of power raged out from the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group, surging toward Wang Xiao.

However.

He dispelled them all completely!

This was his second time facing a Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group.

This time, having broken through to become a Tier Eleven Life form and possessing his own River of Destiny, he had a new understanding of it.

He sensed a vast river flowing within it.

This river was chaotic, its spiritual energy both immense and impure, with endless strands of fate surging within.

These fates were practically immeasurable.

There were strong ones and weak ones; destruction and life coexisted!

With a stir of energy in his body, Wang Xiao’s River of Destiny suddenly materialized and surged toward the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group.

In an instant.

Under Wang Xiao’s guidance, the countless streams of Destiny within the group instantly merged into his River of Destiny.

This Destiny was the convergence of the Destiny of countless lives from this cosmos.

It included that of common peddlers and foot soldiers, mighty experts and titans, and even Children of Destiny.

At this moment, it was all gathered together.

Wang Xiao’s Heart Spirit began to work, digesting these streams of Destiny one by one and integrating them into his own River of Destiny.

Not daring to be the least bit careless, he meticulously filtered through them, leaving only the Destiny that would benefit his own growth.

Just as he settled his mind, preparing to carefully strip the Destiny from the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group...

HUMMM!

At that moment.

The Book of Space-Time in his mind suddenly trembled violently, unleashing a boundless golden light.

’Hm? What’s happening?!’

Wang Xiao’s eyes narrowed sharply.

The last time he had felt such a violent fluctuation from the Book of Space-Time was when it encountered the Door of All Wonders.

Could it be that this cosmos also contained one of the Book of Space-Time’s Lost Items?!

Wang Xiao knew that the Book of Space-Time had a total of six Lost Items.

The Door of All Wonders was one of them.

Just as Wang Xiao was filled with shock and doubt...

HUMMM!

The Book of Space-Time emitted a searing wave of energy.

Wang Xiao saw only a ray of golden light fly out from the Book of Space-Time and probe into the silent Void.

The next moment.

An ancient tree shimmering with seven-colored brilliance flew out from the Void.

It then merged directly into the Book of Space-Time within Wang Xiao’s mind.

Wang Xiao felt that on the last page of the Book of Space-Time, among the six slowly revolving Stars...

...another Star had suddenly lit up.

Furthermore, it gradually took on the shape of a tree.

’It really is one of the Book of Space-Time’s Lost Items!’

Wang Xiao’s eyes narrowed.

He felt that after absorbing this ancient tree shimmering with seven-colored brilliance...

...the Book of Space-Time had undergone another transformation.

It felt as if it might escape his control and flee at any moment.

However.

After completely refining the ancient tree of seven-colored brilliance, the Book of Space-Time returned to a state of calm.

It showed no further signs of unusual activity.

Wang Xiao gazed at the Star that resembled an ancient tree, his eyes narrowing slightly.

[Seven Treasures Wondrous Tree, an Immortal Object, a lost part of the Book of Space-Time. This item can sweep away anything and is the strongest offensive object in the Cosmos.]

Reading the information about the ancient tree shimmering with seven-colored brilliance, Wang Xiao’s eyes flashed.

The strongest offensive object!

This Seven Treasures Wondrous Tree truly was extraordinary.

To be called the strongest in the Cosmos, its offensive power likely surpassed all other Immortal Objects.

’It seems the six items lost by the Book of Space-Time are all Immortal Objects.’

’What kind of existence is its main body, then?!’

Curiosity and a sliver of unease rose in Wang Xiao’s heart.

He didn’t know if the Book of Space-Time had detected its Lost Item in this cosmos and deliberately led him here...

...or if it was just a coincidence!

However.

The feeling of the Book of Space-Time being out of control just now was very real.

Wang Xiao guessed that once the Book of Space-Time refined three of its Lost Items, it would probably escape his control completely!

’After all, I haven’t truly refined the Book of Space-Time; I’m merely its controller.’

’The Book of Space-Time could slip from my grasp at any moment.’

’Perhaps only when I break through to become a Tier Thirteen Life form will I be able to truly touch the core power of the Book of Space-Time.’

Wang Xiao let out a breath.

Right now.

He had no way to keep the Book of Space-Time in check.

And he didn’t know if the Book of Space-Time would pose a threat to him.

Therefore, he could only take things one step at a time.

[The Book of Space-Time has transformed. It can now break down this Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group and extract the various energies within. Use this function?!]

Just then.

The Book of Space-Time sent another message.

Wang Xiao’s eyes twitched as he received the message from the Book of Space-Time:

"Use it!"

He hadn’t expected the Book of Space-Time to possess such power after its transformation.

If it could directly extract the various streams of Destiny from the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group...

...it would undoubtedly save him a massive amount of Cultivation time!

It would allow him to enhance his own River of Destiny at the fastest possible speed.

Otherwise, relying on himself alone, he had no idea how long it would take for his River of Destiny to transform to purple.

The next moment.

The pages of the Book of Space-Time suddenly began to flip, unleashing a golden light that enveloped the Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group.

Immediately.

The Chaos Silent Extinction Energy Group began to melt like amber.

Energy potent enough to destroy a cosmos escaped from within!

Among it, of course, was the Power of Destiny that Wang Xiao needed most.

Wang Xiao’s eyes stirred. Without hesitation, he began to rapidly refine the Power of Destiny from the energies stripped out by the Book of Space-Time, merging it into his own River of Destiny.

His River of Destiny, having absorbed the vast Destiny of an entire cosmos, began its transformation.

Time passed, second by second, minute by minute.

Wang Xiao became completely immersed in refining Destiny.

In the blink of an eye, five hundred years passed.

HUMMM!

Within a cosmos of Silent Extinction...

...a wave of energy spread out, rippling across the entire cosmos.

Immediately following that.

A purple river suddenly manifested!

The moment this purple river appeared...

...the entire cosmos collapsed completely.

It was as if it went from three-dimensional and was crushed directly into a two-dimensional plane.

It was like it had become a magnificent star chart!

From this star chart...

...a figure slowly walked out. It was Wang Xiao.

At this moment.

His entire being exuded an ethereal and illusory aura. He looked down at the star chart beneath his feet with a thoughtful expression.

’A Dimensional Strike... so this is the power of Destiny when condensed to its absolute limit.’
