Chapter 1664: Omega Lord and the Star Atlas Symbol
Following that, a picture of doomsday itself appeared, which was still incredibly familiar to him.
The sky had shattered, and the flames of destruction were pouring through like a flood, turning the world into a chaotic furnace. There was desolation everywhere and all life was in a state of extreme misery.
Mountains crumbled, seas were ravaged by tsunamis, plants had turned to ash, and all life was being annihilated!
It felt as if the end had arrived.
The imposing figure still stood on the highest peak, his hands behind his back as he silently took in everything. There was a certain melancholy and loneliness to this sight.
After a long time, he let out a deep sigh as his voice boomed across the land, “Time did not favor me!”
A complicated mix of despair, disappointment, frustration and other feelings washed over Lin Xun again.
A ten-foot-long copper coffin appeared beside the imposing figure with countless mysterious patterns carved upon its surface.
The figure walked forward and opened the coffin. He took out a book and a brush, threw them into the bronze coffin, then hoisted the bronze coffin on his shoulders before striding away.
Lin Xun was not surprised by this because he had seen all of this before.The book that the imposing figure had taken out was the treasure left to him by Mister Lu.
It was precisely with the help of this book that he triggered a wonderful opportunity by chance, and then obtained the Omega Secret-Realm!
However, he was witnessing such a scene again after opening the door, which inevitably made him a little astonished.
The most incredible thing was that he had just started cultivating at that time, so he could not see how advanced the cultivation level of that imposing figure was.
Now that he had become a supreme True Saint, his state of mind was no longer the same as it was before. Yet, when he viewed these familiar scenes, he still felt the same sense of shock and depression!
Who was that imposing figure?
What were the so-called galaxis door and eternal star road?
Suddenly, Lin Xun calmed down as the familiar scenes in front of him were not over yet.
The most critical point was coming next!
If all these familiar scenes did not change, then the imposing figure was about to turn back!
Swoosh!
Just as Lin Xun had this idea, the imposing figure who was striding away seemed to sense something. He suddenly paused and turned back as Lin Xun had expected!
It was merely a single backward glance, but his gaze seemed to pierce through time and space.
At this moment, Lin Xun, who had already prepared for everything and tried his best to keep calm, still felt like he was being struck by lightning!
A loud rumble boomed from deep within his soul. Everything he had seen shattered like glass and disintegrated into dust.
At the same time, Lin Xun involuntarily cried out in agony and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His body trembled violently, and an indescribable pain flowed through him, as if his soul was being shredded inch by inch.
The pain was so intense that it felt as if he would die the next moment.
A single look had made him faint when that person had "looked" at him for the first time. Now, was that about to happen again?
No!
The scene that was about to take place next was destined to be extraordinary. Last time, he was too weak to see it.
But how could he repeat the same mistake this time?
Kaboom!
At this moment, Lin Xun exploded powerfully, operating his cultivation to an unprecedented extreme. His whole person seemed to be on fire.
Finally, among the various scenes of destruction, Lin Xun saw that pair of distant eyes again.
There was a hint of surprise in those eyes, but also a hint of relief. They suddenly brightened.
They were as bright as two great suns!
But for Lin Xun, when he met that gaze, his primordial spirit felt a severe pain as if it was being melted and incinerated, and his consciousness became blurred.
No!
There must be more!
Lin Xun gritted his teeth as his expression became ferocious.
He had a strong intuition deep in his heart that what was going to happen next must be related to the opening of the Omega Door!
How could he give up now?
…
The mysterious woman couldn't feel a hint of what Lin Xun was experiencing.
She only saw that Lin Xun's expression was changing rapidly, from an initial surprise to shock, and then to astonishment, as if he had discovered something.
But soon, his expression was filled with pain and fierceness. His veins popped out on his forehead, and his aura surged like the raging sea!
"Could it be that even he can't do it..."
The mysterious woman frowned.
To her, time was like an endless river that kept flowing with no end.
After all of these long years, she could no longer remember how many people had entered the Omega Secret-Realm.
Each person had a peerless style that shone from the ancient times to the present, and each one was blessed with great fortune and were destined to be hegemonies in their age.
But every one of them...had come back defeated!
Only one extremely talented sword cultivator had ever cracked the Omega Door open, but it was only a small gap.
In the end, the genius sword cultivator named Xuan Shangchen simply said, "I can't force it," and shook his head.
However, this had happened in the primeval era.
The mysterious woman had once told Lin Xun that Xuan Shangchen was a peerless genius who was not inferior to Lin Xun in terms of talent or ability.
He was also the only challenger who made her feel sorry for him.
At that time, she also told Lin Xun to remember the surname Xuan.
Because Xuan was a word that signified mystery and wonder. It was a surname that not just any ordinary clan would dare to take on.
If Lin Xun also failed to open the door this time...
The mysterious woman thought silently for a long time. She finally came to the conclusion that she would only feel more regretful than the time when she saw Xuan Shangchen leave...
"Eh?"
Soon, the mysterious woman noticed that something was wrong, and dao runes suddenly appeared in her eyes. They were like a pair of lights tearing through the darkness of the eternal night, and she gazed at Lin Xun.
At this time, an extremely obscure force had emerged from Lin Xun, as unfathomable as the abyss of the great void...
And in Lin Xun's consciousness, he finally "saw" those eyes that were like torches and the scorching sun...
Almost at the same time, he activated Time Stopping without hesitation!
In an instant, everything he saw before his eyes was frozen.
It was also at this moment that Lin Xun's heart was filled with turmoil and a sense of great danger.
Because he saw a mysterious and shocking pattern appearing in that pair of "eyes"——
The boundless starry sky was empty and cold, and a road paved by countless huge dead stars led to the end of the starry sky.
At the end was a door.
It was a closed door floating in endless darkness!
With a bang, a loud shout resounded in Lin Xun's mind, "Open this door and see eternity!"
Then, the road formed by countless dead stars exploded, and the mysterious, closed door at the end of the starry sky also disappeared.
Everything in front of him was also gone.
But in Lin Xun's heart, a strange star atlas symbol emerged, looming and obscure, like a key that could unlock an eternal mystery that had been sealed forever!
In the end, this strange star atlas symbol turned into a rain of light, merged into Lin Xun's heart, and disappeared completely.
It was like it had never existed.
But Lin Xun knew very well that this star atlas symbol was in his heart, and one day it would definitely open up an enigma related to “seeing eternity” for him!
A long period of time passed before Lin Xun calmed down and his agitated mind returned to serenity.
The scenes he had seen before reappeared in his mind like a tour of floating pictures——
With a single wave of a sleeve, an imposing figure broke through the blue dome of the sky, shook the world, and opened the galaxis door.
But when he was about to set foot on the eternal star road, a terrifying, huge beast claw poked out from the galaxis door.
Then a majestic figure bathed in golden rays, known as the "Star Road Divine General," flashed out.
Then, the sky collapsed along with everything else, just like the apocalypse!
The imposing figure sighed, "Time did not favor me."
It was obvious that he had not been able to set foot on the eternal star road. He was in low spirits and was about to leave, carrying a bronze coffin.
But the moment he left, he looked back, leaving behind a pair of "eyes" that seemed to penetrate through the eternity of time and space.
In those "eyes," a starry path paved in the empty starry sky was reflected. At the end of the road, there was a mysterious, closed door!
At this time, while calmly recalling these scenes, Lin Xun found that he had still missed many details.
For example, where did the majestic figure carrying the bronze coffin end up going?
The only thing that was certain was that this imposing figure was the person who had created the Omega Secret-Realm.
Basically, he was the Omega Lord!
"That mysterious door closed in the boundless darkness should be the galaxis door. Open this door and see eternity. This 'eternity' must refer to the eternal star road..."
Lin Xun murmured to himself.
However, what he couldn't figure out was what did the Star Atlas Symbol that had appeared in his heart actually represent?
Was this a "key" left by the Omega Lord for himself?
If so, when he had the power to break through the galaxis door, would he be able to use this "key" to set foot on the eternal star road?
Lin Xun fell into deep thought.
The scenes he had seen before contained too many incredible details, and there were also many things worth pondering and ruminating over.
But soon, the mysterious woman's voice echoed in his ears.
"Actually, you don't have to be so discouraged. You are the most special dao seeker I have ever seen. Not only have you passed all the trials in the Omega Secret-Realm, but you have also been able to peek into the phenomenon of 'creating something out of nothing' before reaching the longevity king stage. Furthermore, you also broke through the ‘knock at the heart and ask for the truth’ karmic obstacle before reaching the Saint Stage. Among previous dao seekers, no one has ever been able to reach this level.
"In your future cultivation journey, with your current knowledge and skills, it would not be impossible for you to become a supreme Emperor."
Her voice was still as cold and empty as before, but there was an additional hint of sadness to it.
It seemed that she didn't expect that Lin Xun would also fail at the stage of trying to open the Omega Door.
Lin Xun woke up from his meditation, and he had a somewhat strange expression on his face. She...thought he had failed?
Well it was to be expected. After all, the Omega Door was still closed, and he had not said anything for a long time, so it was no wonder that she had misunderstood what had happened.
Thinking of this, Lin Xun couldn't help but smile as he said, "Senior, look."
He pressed his right hand on the Omega Door and pushed it forward slightly as he finished speaking.
