Chapter 2518: Chapter 2486: Zhou Huo

"Saint Yilin, we came late!"

Five Origin Realm experts appeared. The entire world fell silent, and the air seemed to freeze.

Under this overwhelming momentum, even the Sovereign King Dao Saint and others who were pursuing the White Demon slowly descended, looking at the ground full of ruins with icy expressions.

The Sovereign King Dao Saint landed beside Lin Yi, his gaze sweeping across the entire land. The position of the Holy Palace was situated on a continent at the junction of the Four Realms. Now, this continent had turned into ruins. Shouts and cries of battle filled the air, with bodies occasionally falling from the sky.

Seeing the five Origin Realm experts, the Sovereign King Dao Saint, Jin Lun Saint Daoist, and others felt that terrifying pressure emanating from the soul. Their expressions froze, standing dumbfounded on the ruins in front of Lin Yi, their minds incapable of analyzing anything, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

After all, this scene was an astonishing visual spectacle, a rare occurrence in a million years.

The Sovereign King Dao Saint was filled with despair, "Wasn’t the intelligence saying they only had two or three Origin Realm individuals left? What’s going on? There are some races we’ve never seen before!"

Lin Yi smiled bitterly, shaking his head, "Previously, that Senior Tai Chu told me. Our universe is just a small corner in this Vast Nihility. It seems we still do not understand our enemies enough..."

Five Origin Realm experts gathered together! Such a scene might not be seen even through several reincarnations.

Beneath the Origin Realm, all Dao Saints are mere ants!

Knowing the horror of the Origin Realm, besides shock, the only emotion left in the minds of those few Dao Saints was despair.

After an unknown amount of time, the Sovereign King Dao Saint finally noticed Tai Chu beside Lin Yi. The Sovereign King could feel Tai Chu was also an Origin Realm powerhouse, and from his speculation, if Tai Chu were to fight one-on-one, he could defeat any one of them. Even facing two would have a chance of victory.

But... this time the opposition brought five genuine Origin Realm experts!

In the entire cosmos, in terms of cultivation, the Origin Realm can be considered a ceiling that is nearly impossible for all cultivators to touch. Under the Origin Realm, there are many who have reached Dao Saint level. But taking that crucial step to reach Origin is nearly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

If a universe has an Origin Realm powerhouse stationed, it can ensure millennia of peace for one side. Sadly, over so many years, no Origin Realm powerhouse has emerged in the Starry Universe. This made them so vulnerable when facing the Era-Ancient Civilization.

The Sovereign King Dao Saint was originally the only one in the Starry Universe with hopes of stepping into the Origin Realm over the centuries. Sadly, he ultimately did not reach that day.

The Sovereign King laughed self-deprecatingly, "Yilin Dao Friend... It seems this time I can’t be of much help..."

Today’s situation is a pure deadlock.

"What a pity!" The Sovereign King’s face was full of unwillingness and anger, his voice hoarse as he said, "I’m disappointed in myself. I couldn’t break through at the critical moment!"

If he could break through to the Origin Realm, these Era-Ancient Civilizations would have to be extra cautious when attempting to invade. The five Origin Realm experts are certainly terrifying, but adding Tai Chu and the desperate counterattack from all the Dao Saints of the Starry Universe, the outcome would still be uncertain.

Sadly. There’s no ’if’.

Lin Yi, however, gave a faint smile, shaking his head, "Why blame yourself, Sovereign King Dao Saint? If it’s truly Heavenly Fate, we’ve all done our best as citizens of the Cosmic Starry Sky."

"Ashamed, indeed... Yilin Dao Friend has done so much for the Starry Universe, compared to you in realms, I admit I’m not as good." The Sovereign King Dao Saint sighed, genuinely respecting the woman.

At this time, the White Demon on the opposite side was scanning the present Lin Yi, Sovereign King, Golden Wheel, and others. His gaze finally fell on Tai Chu, and he frowned.

After all, Tai Chu was a late-stage Origin Realm powerhouse, and if a fight were actually to happen, it would cause them much trouble. Hesitating for a moment, the White Demon cupped his hands towards Tai Chu, "Esteemed Senior. The downfall of the Starry Universe is already certain, and we’re only acting for survival. I implore Senior not to intervene, and after the fact, you will receive twenty percent of the rewards. Does that sound agreeable?"

Upon saying this, the corner of the White Demon’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch, clearly with great reluctance. Their major civilizations practically exhausted all of their civilization’s power for this action. Directly handing over twenty percent of the gains was merely due to fear of the late-stage Origin Realm powerhouse’s tactics.

"Hmph." Tai Chu sneered coldly, looking at them with a gaze almost pitiful, "I really don’t know how you lowlifes comprehend the Founding Dao? Dream on if you think I’d join you in such malfeasance!"

"Courting death!"

Spirit Bone’s massive body trembled, and he angrily shouted from a commanding position, "Ungrateful thing. Do you really think the five of us are not your match?"

At the moment when they were about to move, laughter echoed from the horizon.

"Hahahaha. You old fools, wasn’t being killed by the Supreme of the Starry Sky enough last time? How dare you come back?"

Hearing the voice, Spirit Bone hurriedly looked up at the sky, frowning, "What voice is that??"

As confusion spread among the crowd, space in front was once again torn open, and an old white-haired man in a yellow robe stepped out.

Feeling the aura of the old man, everyone present was taken aback.

Another Origin Realm powerhouse??

Seeing this, Jin Lun Saint Daoist was directly dumbfounded, his face quite awkward, "How can there be another one?? Just how many Origin Realm beings does this Era-Ancient Civilization have?"

"Shut up!" Seeing the old man, the Sovereign King Dao Saint quickly slapped the back of Jin Lun Saint Daoist’s head. Jin Lun Saint Daoist clutched his head with a face full of grievance, "Senior Venerable King, why did you hit me...."

The Sovereign King Dao Saint, however, ignored Jin Lun Saint Daoist and hurriedly ran to the old man, bowing deeply, "Senior Zhou Huo! You... you actually survived that calamity many years ago?"

Hearing the Sovereign King Dao Saint’s words, Jin Lun Saint Daoist was evidently taken aback, thinking to himself, is this our side?

The elderly man named Zhou Huo was, in ancient times, a pinnacle powerhouse of the Starry Universe. At that time, he had the greatest opportunity to step into the Origin Realm, but later it was said he went berserk and regretfully perished. He didn’t expect he actually survived!

Zhou Huo casually glanced at the Sovereign King Dao Saint, saying, "Back then, after failing to break through, I also thought death was certain. Unexpectedly, I stumbled upon the Founding Dao at Ghost Gate.... You lad have reached Dao Saint level now. I guess it’s really been too long...."

"Zhou Huo?" Seeing the old man, Liii Miao apparently recognized him, his expression turning extremely grim, gritting his teeth and saying, "Unexpected that you old fellow also stepped into the Origin realm...."
