Novel Full 703 Origin Seal Continent
Eternal Ascension World:
There is a humongous continent hundreds of times larger than the entire lower dimension in the east. It is known as Origin Seal Continent. Numerous lives survived and thrived on that continent: from mortals to demons to Emperors–there are too many different races.
The Origin Seal Continent is famous throughout the Eternal Ascension World because it is one of the few places not controlled by the 2 Suns and Seven Moons where Tier 12 powerhouses exist–albeit only from the Dao and Immortal Path.
And that is because the ruler of the continent–Empress Wu–sheltered all sentient beings. In a special place in the Origin Seal Continent, Wu Hong looked at a beautiful woman with a pale complexion but extremely sharp eyes.
“How are you doing?”
“I’ll survive,” said the Sword Empress, exhaling deeply.
“You should have come to me sooner.”
“My hiding place was perfect. I didn’t expect that bastard to find me,” said the Sword Empress with gritted teeth. Thinking about how she had to run away from that bastard, a terrifying killing emanated from her body. It was so intense that the surrounding time and space froze.
“I want to kill him.”
“Cam down and don’t do anything rash,” persuaded Wu Hong. She knew if her friend used some extreme means, she might be able to kill Time Eater. However, the result would be her death and entering limbo. And even then, reviving would become a hundred times more difficult.
“Something is wrong with him,” said Sword Empress. “Back then, although he was annoying, his personality was not that of a coward.”
“Indeed, he should have participated in the Ultimate Taboo,” nodded Wu Hong. From what they know about Time Eater, he would have taken the risk to participate. Even though his cultivation did not reach the peak, it was closed enough for him to gamble. Instead, he secretly plotted against the world and established the current situation.
“Didn’t he likes to travel through the Infinite Trichiliocosm? Maybe he found something in another timeline?”
“That’s the most likely scenario,” nodded Sword Empress. “How are your injuries?”
“I’ve solved the other issues, but the root of the problem still requires some time. How about you?”
“My situation is worse,” she shook her head. She cannot rely on the Dao Opening Sect’s luck to accelerate the progress, nor use a similar method as Wu Hong and gather incense from all sentient beings because of Time Eater. Furthermore, she has to gather resources for the other 8 to prepare for their resurrection. So, her situation was not the best.
However, recently, the luck of the sect in the lower dimension drastically increased, so her situation was much better.
“What is the situation with Maitreya?” Her old friend had been acting shady in the past few years. However, Sword Empress did not entirely blame her since she protected all the people in Limbo from Supreme Unity.
“Probably some restrictions with the method she received,” said Wu Hong with a hint of annoyance. “Luckily, her recent situation has improved.”
“At least we know she was not completely gone,” she replied with a deep sigh. “It’s a shame that we can only wait, given the current situation.”
The eight parasites entirely control the world’s resources, luck, and destiny. And with Supreme Unity’s strength, the situation worsened for people from the old era. They could not even escape the Eternal Ascension World to recuperate somewhere else.
“You can rest here to recuperate,” said Wu Hong. “He won’t dare come here to search for you.” After chatting with her friend for a while, she left the secret realm, back to her territory.
Wu Hong floated above the sky, overlooking this continent. Compared to anywhere else in the Eternal Ascension World, this place was beautiful, prospering, and full of life. But she did not like it.
The nine parasites made rules not allowing any Tier 12 of the Emperor Path to appear. She did not care about these cockroaches but could not do anything about Supreme Unity.
Back then, the latter was probably not her match. But now, Wu Hong knew he could destroy her with one finger. She felt a little frustrated.
‘Detachment…detachment,’ she thought before teleporting away. She had not walked around the Eternal Ascension World in quite some time, so she decided to change that.
Wu Hong walked around mountains, rivers, forests, great cities, and powerful Empires; she experienced different civilizations. One day, while walking near a river called Red String River. There are folk tales in the surrounding domains that this river is a place that can bring people fated people together.
Wu Hong walked to the river, removed her shoes, and walked on the river’s edge. Recently, she had the urge to walk barefoot, like in her younger years. She was baffled by this sudden urge since she thought she had outgrown that phase of her life. Regardless, her sudden desire was not that significant.
After walking around for a few minutes, she left the river and placed her shoes back on. Of course, they instantly dried the moment she left the water. Wu Hong walked away, and no one detected her presence, not a single person of the thousands of people bathing in that river, hoping to find love.
After walking for a few minutes, she stopped with an unpleasant look, maybe even disgusted.
“What do you want?” she asked to the sky, and three people suddenly appeared a distance from her: Time Eater, Five Feather Phoenix, and Earth Emperor.
“Empress, the world needs your help,” said Earth Emperor, with a soft voice. However, Wu Hong looked at him with deadpan eyes and no reaction. She did not say a single word to continue the conversation.
“This is an emergency, and we need your help.”
Wu Hong gazed at him for a moment and ignored him. She already predicted he was a pawn in the chess game the Human Emperor has been calculating for who knows how long. So, this man would not have a good ending.
She looked at Time Eater and said coldly, “Why are you disturbing me? I thought you people agreed to leave me alone.”
“The situation has changed. The All-Seeing Temple released a new divination that caused turmoil throughout Primordial Chaos. Countless people have been attacking our world and testing our foundation.”
“So? What does it have to do with me?”
“As long as you agree to sign a peace treaty with us, we will use all the world’s resources to heal your injury. With your strength, you can scare most of these people and buy us more time and peace,” added Time Eater.
“Not interesting. Now, get out of my way. Your presence ruined the good day I was having,” said Wu Hong nonchalantly.
“Woman, be grateful and watch your tongue,” said Five Feathers with a sneer. “No matter how brilliant you once were, you are currently just a little Empyrean.”
Wu Hong looked at Five Feathers, and her heart involuntarily skipped a beat. For a brief moment, she experienced an emotion she had not felt in a very long time: fear.
Wu Hong looked into the void before looking at Time Eater: “You should know even if all 8 of you attacked me, I can still slaughter half of you in my current state before dying. And I promise you will be one of the four. Do you want to try?”
Time Eater’s eyes secretly twitched as he knew she was telling the truth. The woman before him was not only a Boundless Paragon but an Inextinguishable one as well. Even though her [Existence] was severely injured, thus drastically reducing her strength, her fleshly body still retains the defensive capabilities and stamina of an Inextinguishable Paragon.
And if by chance she possessed some extreme method to briefly returned to her peak strength, then none of them would survive in her hands–including him.
‘My plan is closed to finish. And once I’m done, I can become a Peak Boundless Paragon and maybe even touch the realm beyond.’ He is currently a regular Paragon with 97% Time Grand Dao Source. But once he accomplished his plan, he would reach a height he could only dream of in the past.
‘I need more time.’ Time Eater knew that not only was Time not in his favor, but even fate was against him. The 2 Suns and Seven Moon Era showed signs of collapsing. He secretly looked at Five Feathers and Earth Emperor and could see a faint sign of Qi of Calamity. And it was the horrifying kind not easily detected or removed by even Boundless Paragons.
“Can’t you be a little bit more flexible? The world is at stake.”
“You people made this world in this state, so deal with the consequences of your action,” replied Wu Hong before teleporting away, ignoring these people. As she continued her journey, her eyes saw the River of Fate.
‘Their Era is ending, and the people in Limbo will soon return. Maybe they can delay the process, but the end is inevitable. However, this is not what is most important,’ thought Wu Hong.
‘I can feel it: another chance for detachment is coming.’ Her eyes brightened. ‘This chance might be better and safer than the Ultimate Taboo. I need to prepare.’
