Chapter 440: Chapter 341 Chaotic Yuan Gate_2
However, the calling sensation was still there, which relieved Li Cheng a great deal.
Without hesitation, Li Cheng released his aura and flew towards the ruined city as quick as lightning.
"Human Tribe!"
"What Human Tribe? More like a servant, right?"
Voices of discussion rose, without a doubt, all were scornful.
Li Cheng entered the ruined city and activated the Array Plate he had refined earlier.
Instantly, all the members of the God Race sensed the crisis, some retreated quickly, while others attacked Li Cheng.
Li Cheng enveloped himself in Divine Power, and in a flick of his fingers, he disrupted the Heaven and Earth Laws for tens of thousands of miles, causing all the members of the God Race to retreat in shock.
Everything happened too fast, almost in the blink of an eye—the Spirit Extinction Array had already enveloped the entire ruined city, and all members of the God Race had left the range of the Spirit Extinction Array.
"What does this lowly servant want to do? Monopolize this ruined city?"
The members of the God Race were furious, but the Spirit Extinction Array in front of them was incredibly formidable, and it was impossible to break it in a short time.
If it were any other formation, they could silently infiltrate it by using the Heaven and Earth Laws, but the Spirit Extinction Array was different.
Inside the Spirit Extinction Array, even the Laws were kept at bay. They couldn't sneak in and had no choice but to think of ways to break it.
Li Cheng was naturally full of confidence in his Formation, not even glancing at the God Race members outside, he began searching through the ruins.
The calling sensation was in the ruins, everywhere, making Li Cheng feel as though he couldn't see the true appearance of Mount Lu just because he was inside it, temporarily unable to pinpoint the exact location.
After searching quickly, he found nothing but over a dozen broken bowls, and the calling sensation was still there.
Standing in the center of the ruins, Li Cheng continued to sense carefully. The debris obstructed Divine Sense, making it impossible to see beneath the ruins with Divine Sense. Having no choice, Li Cheng stomped down fiercely, his Divine Power sweeping out and causing all the sand and earth in the ruins to fly into the air!
With a wave of his hand, he gathered the flying sand into the Divine World. The situation within the array became clear, as all the broken walls and ruins were fully exposed, and the ancient and vicissitude-ridden aura emitted from the ruins intensified.
"This... the entire ruin is a whole, it's a Divine City!"
That stomp allowed Li Cheng to clearly perceive the anomaly of the ruins. This ruin, which had existed for an unknown number of years, was actually a whole!
And the calling sensation was clearly coming from beneath the city. Because it was covered by the entire city, it gave Li Cheng a sense of omnipresence.
Outside the array, all members of the God Race stopped attacking the Formation and stared fixedly at the Divine City that had revealed its true face, with all of their pupils slightly constricting.
"Hurry up and break the Formation. We cannot give him the chance to take that thing away!" someone shouted loudly, the voice spreading across tens of thousands of miles.
The next moment, all members of the God Race used their full strength!
Li Cheng glanced at the Formation before turning his attention to a stele not far away.
The stele was severely worn, but the three characters on it could still be faintly made out: Chaotic Yuan Gate!
Meanwhile, on the Long River of Time, the Confucius Ancestor stood on the Coffin of Hundred Lives, flowing upstream. Majestic power radiated from within the coffin, enveloping the Confucius Ancestor and allowing him to easily reach the first obstacle.
This obstacle originated a hundred billion years ago, and the Confucius Ancestor had previously returned from this point without success.
As the distance closed, a giant wave suddenly surged on the Long River of Time, accompanied by a thunderous shout, "Scram!"
The Time Law came to life, with the river water transforming into a gigantic hand, ferociously slapping toward the Confucius Ancestor!
"Do you think my Human Tribe has no one?"
Just as the hand was about to land, another thunderous voice echoed through the Long River of Time, and immediately a Mountain of Literature emerged, effortlessly shattering the hand and even stabilizing the turbulent Long River of Time!
"Master!" A trace of agitation flickered in the Confucius Ancestor's eyes. After so many years, he had finally received his Master's protection on the Long River of Time!
The Mountain of Literature transformed into a phantom; it was an old man with white hair and a scholarly robe, exuding an indescribable transcendence.
The old man stroked his chin's long beard and smiled, "I'll escort you a distance!"
With a wave of his hand, the Coffin of Hundred Lives received a powerful surge of strength, its speed increasing by more than a hundredfold!
The Confucius Ancestor turned his head only to see the old man's figure dissolving!
Seeing this, the Confucius Ancestor opened his mouth, but he could say nothing.
He understood that his Master had died not due to the end of his lifespan but rather because he had exhausted his power helping his future self on the Long River of Time!
Without time for further emotion, the Coffin of Hundred Lives had already reached a billion years ago, and indeed another incredibly strong power emerged, creating giant waves and bombarding the Confucius Ancestor without hesitation.
Confucius Ancestor was preparing to use his power to retaliate, but he felt a sudden heaviness on his shoulder.
Turning his head, he noticed a towering male figure had appeared beside him at some unknown time!
The man, enveloped in rolling Demonic Qi, coldly watched the oncoming wave and said lightly, "It's important to conserve strength, leave it to me!"
As soon as he had spoken, the man transformed into a Demon Blade, slicing through the wave and creating a calm stretching hundreds of millions of miles!
On this calm stretch of the Long River of Time, the Coffin of Hundred Lives was able to move forward even faster!
"Demon Ancestor of Heaven Blade!"
Confucius Ancestor recognized this man as a notorious figure in the annals of demonic cultivation, one who had led cultivators of the demonic path to subdue an era a hundred billion years ago.
Soon, they reached five hundred billion years ago, and the Long River of Time became turbulent once again!
A middle-aged man holding a sword approached, trying to suppress the Long River of Time, but a giant hand appeared, crushing his form to pieces!
"Youngster, meet your death!" The giant hand issued a cold voice.
Confucius Ancestor sighed inwardly, ready to face the enemy. In this era, the Divine Realm apparently had no extremely powerful figures to help, so he had to rely on himself.
Yet suddenly, the lid of the Coffin of Hundred Lives beneath Confucius Ancestor's feet opened on its own, and a withered corpse crawled out.
As the corpse emerged, the Long River of Time, as if soothed, quickly became calm again.
And that giant hand, as if suppressed by the calm Long River of Time, began to slowly dissipate!
Confucius Ancestor's eyes showed surprise as he examined the dried-up corpse, tentatively asking, "Space-Time Divine Ancestor?"
The corpse did not respond, standing silently in the coffin, its body emanating an exceedingly strong space-time power, forming a membrane of light that enveloped both Confucius Ancestor and the Coffin of Hundred Lives.
The next second, the Coffin of Hundred Lives surged upstream at an unprecedented speed, easily breaking through layer after layer of seal!
But Confucius Ancestor clearly felt the power within the corpse swiftly depleting!
By the time they reached a trillion years ago, the corpse's power was exhausted and it disintegrated into dust, leaving behind only the empty Coffin of Hundred Lives!
Confucius Ancestor steadied his spirit and peered through the Long River of Time, where he saw a bustling and majestic city.
On the gate of the city were three characters: "Chaotic Yuan Gate!"
The city was bustling with activity, and each cultivator radiated a familiar wave of power. It was... the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!
Confucius Ancestor was astounded. In this era, so many people practiced the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture?
Amid his surprise, in the heart of the city, a middle-aged man slowly lifted his head, his gaze as if piercing through the barriers of space-time to see Confucius Ancestor, nodding and smiling towards him.
Confucius Ancestor quickly bowed in respect, but saw the middle-aged man point toward the ground and smile, "Each era has its own destiny. In my era, sacrificing the Chaotic Yuan Gate was the price for peace for all future generations."
Confucius Ancestor nodded, "The peace of a trillion years will eventually break. In my time, even with all our strength, we can hardly withstand the God Race."
The middle-aged man's smile remained, "That's how time and fate work!"
After that, Confucius Ancestor watched as the bustling city turned into ruins.
Confucius Ancestor thought back to the middle-aged man's action of pointing to the ground and smiled with understanding. "This predecessor's one thought has affected all future generations; he must have surpassed the Divine Emperor's Realm."
At that moment, Li Cheng saw a stele and began to examine it closely.
On the back of the stele, he found a clear palm print!
Within the palm print, there was a mark of space-time!
Li Cheng's eyes widened in amazement, and he infused the palm print with a thread of Divine Power.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man's apparition stepped out from within the palm print and looked at Li Cheng with a smile, "To have such strength at the twenty-fourth layer of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, indeed the younger generation is to be feared!"
Li Cheng was profoundly shocked; the middle-aged man before him had left a palm print on the stele, using the print to entrust a space-time mark, thereby transcending time and space to communicate with descendants. This method was beyond imagination!
"Junior Li Cheng, greets the senior," Li Cheng bowed deeply in salute.
The middle-aged man continued to smile, looking up briefly and saying, "You father and son are quite interesting. I am aware of your purpose and am heartened by your efforts. However, as eras change, the problem with the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture can only be solved by you yourselves."
Li Cheng contemplated, "Senior, have you cultivated to the thirty-third layer? What kind of realm is that?"
The middle-aged man nodded, "Supreme!"
"Different eras yield different heights of the same cultivation technique... Eh?" The middle-aged man suddenly looked towards the ground, his brows furrowing.
