The Elysium Across Deep Space - Chapter 479: Ranking First In Achievements

The Celestial Bracelet had undergone a transformation and the radiant glow had converged inward. At the most critical moment, it became increasingly condensed and profound, remaining stationary.

“It seems like something’s missing.” Wang Xuan frowned, feeling somewhat worried. He feared Fang Yuzhu and the others might fail, undoing all their efforts.

It was widely known that they were refining a supreme treasure. The extraordinary phenomenon that was visible through the Great Barrier indicated the remarkable nature of the event.

Within the Great Barrier, one of the two shadows sighed lightly, saying, “It seems we still need the bearer of the old covenant. Although it has absorbed two types, they both belong to civilizations that were long gone. It isn’t enough.” In the next moment, the scroll in their hands transformed into mountains, rivers, and the starry sky. It enveloped the Celestial Bracelet and provided an endless stream of immortal power. The rules intertwined, inducing its final qualitative change.

The Divine Palace trembled anxiously and had struck out relentlessly. However, the bearer of the old covenant and the Celestial Bracelet resisted its onslaught with the power of interwoven rules. A large umbrella covered the starry sky. It looked like it was about to tear open the entire Great Barrier, but it was also under pressure at the same time. In the farther distance, the Pool of Life emerged and emanated countless divine rays to counter the large umbrella. It seemed like it was assisting the Celestial Bracelet. It was a grand melee!

“This should be it. A supreme treasure has been born under everyone’s eyes!” Wang Xuan’s expression changed.

For the first time in this mythical era, someone had refined a supreme treasure that illuminated the world. Its final radiance converged and it became ancient and heavy. In a trance, it seemed to have collapsed the Great Barrier. It no longer emitted light as a whole. The massive black jade bracelet had swallowed the surrounding light like a black hole.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The earth and sky trembled incessantly and powerful energy surged within that vast Great Barrier. Rules were roaring and order was expanding like a raging sea of stars.

With a low hum, the Celestial Bracelet trembled and was completely and perfectly refined. In an instant, a myriad of stars shone from within the black bracelet and flooded the Great Barrier.

The two shadows lowered their heads to gaze at the bearer of the old covenant and found it had become dimmer after a large amount of essence was absorbed by the Celestial Bracelet.

“Fang Yuzhu, we’ve even given you the supreme treasure. We are sincere, don’t disappoint us!” The woman among the two shadows spoke. Many people were shocked and discussed it fervently.

“When the bracelet was first forged, it probably foresaw itself presenting such an incomparable scene. With its black base and translucent white spots, it really resembles the universe. It was well named,” someone praised.

“Our mythical era is coming to an end. It’s already enough even if it dissipates now. The results of this transcendent era will be left behind,” an elder said excitedly.

Since ancient times, many civilizations left nothing behind and dispersed like they had never existed. There were only a few super civilizations who left behind supreme treasures. It was like a mark of a race, the essence of a civilization, a condensed history, or a brilliant memory. There was no room for the older generation’s sighs and emotions. The most intense battle had erupted!

The Divine Palace went crazy when Fang Yuzhu took the Celestial Bracelet. Along with the immortal umbrella, it violently struck down to cover the sky and overwhelmed everything. Furthermore, numerous giant energy hands and various strange weapons attacked. They were all trying to seize this new supreme treasure.

Although the process was perilous, there were no accidents or mishaps. Amidst the humming vibrations, the beautiful bracelet shrank and was worn by Fang Yuzhu on her wrist. Her pristine skin and the profound Celestial Bracelet complemented each other. The astonishing great Dao patterns expanded, forcing all enemies to retreat. Especially at a critical moment, Fang Yuzhu dared to control the bracelet. She was not worried at all about someone snatching away the new treasure due to the short time of fusion with the bracelet.

Finally, Fang Yuzhu even dared to throw the bracelet out, smashing it onto the Divine Palace. With a deafening sound, the heavens and earth cracked, the starry sky seemed to vanish, and a terrifying rift appeared in the Great Barrier. This action made everyone tremble. They felt the terrifying wave of terror like a mountain and sea breaking, especially those within the Great Barrier felt it the most.

The fierce collision of the two supreme treasures was terrifying. The collision had torn the barrier and many cracks appeared because of it. If someone took the risk and crossed realms at this moment, their main body could still come over unharmed!

The gods were bleeding, they were all retreating. Even the top figures among them, those mighty beings were fleeing rapidly as they feared being severely injured. Under the terrifying ripples of the Great Dao,some ordinary gods that were on the same level as those who just ascended to immortality, burst into blood mist and had their bones shattered in this great collision. This scene made everyone shudder.

Was this the power of supreme treasures?

The confrontation between the Celestial Bracelet and the Divine Palace was too destructive. If the gods were trapped in the vortex, their lives would be difficult to preserve.

There was an extremely special existence within the Divine Palace. He was an antique left over from the previous civilization. He was coughing continuously at this moment with blood flowing out of his mouth and nose. He found it somewhat unbearable. This most intense and domineering confrontation, had made him, a nearly decayed old monster who could not make progress, feel very uncomfortable.

“All right! I’ve been eyeing this old fellow for a while. It’s about time to kill him. He was blocking us incessantly not long ago, and now it’s his turn. Let’s finish him off!” Old Zhang clapped his hands in approval.

“Sister, let’s strike again and seize this Divine Palace.” The Demon Lord Yan Yan shouted while wearing her alluring red dress. Her eyes twinkled with a smile, but also emanated a killing intent at the same time.

“Everyone, we had an agreement beforehand. The Divine Palace belongs to us for research purposes.” The Buddhist ascetic spoke up.

There were predecessors in the Daoist faction nodding over there. They were even older than Zhang Daoling. They were joining forces to take down the Divine Palace, as per the original agreement.

“Good!” said Fang Yuzhu. She fulfilled her promise and changed her target. The bracelet with its black base and white spots flew out again, quickly enlarging and turning into a divine ring. It then fiercely clashed with the immortal umbrella and was intending to capture it.

Of course, the undyings and the gods would never yield. Led by the mighty ones, they activated supreme treasures to join the battle. Chaos erupted in the Great Barrier instantly, with divine blood splattering and immortal blood flowing. There were fierce battles everywhere.

“Kill! This is the final battle in the twilight of mythology! If we win, we’ll be able to endure the transcendent winter by gathering all the supreme treasures that may lead to immortality. If we lose, we’ll perish with the Great Barrier!” someone shouted.

For a moment, the cries of war shook the heavens, and everyone moved toward the depths. The gods were densely packed together, the undying formed large groups, and corpses were everywhere. It seemed as if the world was about to end.

……

In the real world, people felt heavy-hearted and did not dare to breathe. It would be like a world-ending flood if gods and undying invaded the real world on such a scale with such overwhelming power.

Someone spoke up, “Mythology cannot fully penetrate into the real world. Once they come over, they will be corrected in this era and their power will rapidly decline.”

In the spaceship that was in outer space, many breathed a sigh of relief, while some felt sad and regretful. What had to come eventually came.

“Judging by the current decay of the Great Barrier, the time has been shortened by a large margin. It is estimated that in about three months, the transcendence will fall into eternal silence. Both the immortal realm and the Great Barrier will cease to exist!” Someone made this astonishing conjecture which put fear into many cultivators’ hearts. Although they were mentally prepared, each advancement of the date still made them anxious.

People noticed that the sound originated from the iron fortress that floated in the cosmic void. So it should be a reliable inference. Wang Xuan was also stunned by this. Just a few days ago, the time was said to be about seven months. Now the time has been cut short by half!

“Hey, event organizers, I’m seriously injured and it’s hard for me to recover. When will this battle end? I demand to leave this battlefield. My performance should be enough to claim a prize.” Wang Xuan asked again. The most intense battle had occurred in the Great Barrier, and someone might bring a supreme treasure to the mortal world at any time. He didn’t want to stay in this place any longer.

Unexpectedly, someone in the iron fortress quickly responded to him this time, informing everyone that if they didn’t want to continue the challenge, they could all leave the battlefield.

“In comprehensive evaluation, Wang Xuan killed the God of Light, the undying Lei Tuo, the goddess Yuan Lei, and Yu Hong. He had defeated four mighty beings in one battle which made him rank first in achievements!” announced the iron fortress. Yuhong was the gray-haired god stationed at the Dao Shielding Palace.

Although everyone already knew what the results would be like, they still couldn’t help but be shocked by it. Some then said, “This Wang Xuan is too wild.”

“He has transformed from a limit-breaker to a god-slayer. As a man of the mundane realm, he had single-handedly killed four palace lords from the six grand palaces. It’s insanely terrifying!”

In the eyes of the transcendents, Wang Xuan was like a dazzling tower of light that was illuminating the dark mythical night sky. Such achievements were stunning and awe-inspiring no matter which era they were placed in.

Qing Mu sighed, “Sealing divinity in one battle, Old Wang is destined to leave his name in history. Since ancient times, no one among cultivators of his realm has been as crazy in the mortal realm as him!”

“What Old Wang? Calling him Little Wang would be more affectionate!” Wu Yin corrected.

“Let’s just call him Wang Xuan.” Zhao Qinghan said with a bright smile.

Transcendent Ma and Little Fox felt dizzy at first but were then ecstatic as they empathized with such achievements. The mechanical little bear lost its focus for the first time, it felt it had chosen the right person this time, and surrendering didn’t seem like a humiliation anymore.

In the iron fortress, another announcement was made, “Xu Fu has killed the undying named Glacier and is now pursuing the God of Hunting. He ranked second in achievements.”

……

In this place, there were two peculiar items listed as the highest rewards outside the Great Barrier, namely, the Book of Ages and the Space-Time Mace. The former was the bearer of the old covenant of a bygone transcendent civilization, and the latter was a semi-mature supreme treasure left behind by a vanished civilization.

Wang Xuan spoke up, “I don’t want those two highest rewards. Does Ni En have a great medicine that can heal the injuries from the heavenly tribulation? A medicine that can mend the torn spirit and the damaged foundation?”

People were surprised once again, they had confirmed that Wang Xuan had encountered major problems. He would rather give up the highest rewards than treat his injuries first.

“After multiple inspections, there is no such potion in the inventory, which is regrettable,” came the mechanical response from the iron fortress.

Wang Xuan fell silent, looking somewhat despondent. Finally, he reluctantly chose the Space-Time Mace and requested to be sent out of the battlefield. At the same time, he waved to Chen Yongjie, indicating to him to leave together. His main concern was that the event organizers might be too unscrupulous. They might have predetermined the prizes in advance, especially since the God of Light, Lei Tuo, Yuan Lei, and others had obviously teamed up earlier.

He wanted to take away the semi-mature supreme treasure first, and then give it to Xu Fu later. Life Essence Furnaces was enough for him. As for the Book of Ages, the event organizers owed Xu Fu.

Obviously, the organizers were indeed a bit shady as they were from the Land of the Undying and the Land of Divine. They secretly informed him that the Space-Time Mace was temporarily unavailable and asked him to wait.

Wang Xuan immediately confronted them on the spot, publicly exposing that the Book of Ages had disappeared and the Space-Time Mace was also missing.

How could it be possible that none of the highest rewards left outside the Great Barrier remained? What kind of joke was this?

They were too unscrupulous!

“We can compensate you by allowing you to enter the stone room carved from real substance. You will be able to survive the transcendent winter,” the event organizers secretly contacted him without making it public.

Wang Xuan rejected again, “No, I failed my tribulation, I’m almost half crippled. Maybe I won’t live long. What’s the point of going in there? Besides, what if all the supremely powerful gods gather inside, then gang up to kill me?”

The outside world was also in an uproar, thinking that the event organizers had gone too far.

Both of those rare rewards had disappeared? Who were they trying to fool?

Everyone believed there was some shady business going on.

“Give it to him for now. Who knows who it will end up with in the end? All the benefits will be redistributed when all the supreme treasures gather and the peerless transcendent beings come to the real world!” someone said secretly.

In the end, the event organizers made a show, and a semi-mature supreme treasure revived abruptly. It flew out from underground of the six grand palaces and was then captured. It was the Space-Time Mace, and they generously gave it to Wang Xuan.

“Let’s go!” Wang Xuan called out as he waved to Chen Yongjie.

Then, he also met Grandpa Liu Huai’an who was also a Buddhist monk that was full of energy. They looked like senior and junior brothers as Chen Yongjie and him stood side by side. As the light rain evaporated, they returned to outer space and boarded the spaceship.

Grand Alchemist Xu Fu relentlessly pursued the God of Hunting in the decaying barrier. He refused to let him go and swore to kill him. Finally, he found his trace and caught up.

Puff!

Blood splattered everywhere as Xu Fu slaughtered the gods for the second time!

In outer space, Wang Xuan quietly meditated without being disturbed after he returned. He once again felt a strand of malice from the depths, it was distant but seemingly approaching.

With a clear mind and spirit, his spiritual eyes and twelfth stage foundations merged. In extreme tranquility, he explored and saw it.Far away into the distance, the Evil Dragon was coming!

“Could you fulfill my wish and let me become the Dragon Slayer?” he muttered.

Suddenly, the Great Barrier cracked open, and the new supreme treasures and old supreme treasures engaged in fierce battles. Immortals, undying, and gods clashed. Someone had used a supreme treasure to split open the Great Barrier.

For a moment, gods and others entered the real world, and some appeared in outer space. They were shouting and killing. As the gods descended, their great battle had truly involved the real world!
