Chương 276: Transcendence (Finale)

Su Chen sensed the approaching crisis, but it was already too late. All the Immortal Spirits of the End Times Immortal Domain discovered that they could no longer enter the mysterious space. The space itself had collapsed, severing all contact between them. It was only through that shared space that the End Times Immortal Spirits had been able to unite and stand against the Transmigrator Alliance, the Main God Hall, and other hostile organizations. Without it, they became scattered and disorganized.

"Has the Great Yang Emperor Lord fallen?" Su Chen thought in shock and confusion. The Great Yang Emperor Lord was the strongest expert of the End Times Immortal Domain, a being who had lived through countless eras. How could he die so easily? Though Su Chen refused to believe it, the collapse of the mysterious space meant that the Great Yang Emperor Lord's Dao artifact had been destroyed. He could no longer maintain the space. Su Chen had no choice but to accept the harsh reality.

Even if the Great Yang Emperor Lord was still alive, his situation could not be much better. Another ten million years passed. Su Chen explored vast regions of the void, growing steadily stronger. He waged wars across many lands, uncovered numerous secrets, and even obtained a single strand of Immortal Qi. Using that strand, he shattered his shackles and surpassed the Twenty Tribulations Ruler realm. A Twenty Tribulations Ruler was already considered a powerhouse across the entire Void Cosmic Sea....

"Di Chen, today is the day you die." In the Myriad Realms Graveyard, countless powerhouses had gathered from all directions. Ever since the Great Yang Emperor Lord's disappearance, Su Chen had encountered great opportunities and his cultivation soared. He devoured endless universes to form his own great realm, slaughtered Rulers from many factions, seized their foundations, and fused ten thousand Daos with the ambition of creating the Myriad Laws Immortal Body.

Through his relentless efforts, he had thoroughly offended countless major powers and was now being hunted by their top experts. The Myriad Realms Graveyard was a desolate wasteland where the remnants of countless destroyed universes converged, forming one of the most dangerous forbidden lands in the void. High above the barren expanse floated a radiant sun. Within that sun stood a figure with calm, steady eyes. He seemed to have anticipated this scene long ago. Su Chen reflected on the past years.

To study the secrets of transmigrators, he had hunted countless members of the Transmigrator Alliance. To perfect his Myriad Laws Immortal Body, he had even slain Emperor Lord seeds who had passed ten layers of the Emperor Tribulation. To raise his cultivation, he had schemed against and eliminated Rulers from numerous factions. When the Great Yang Emperor Lord was still alive, these actions had not caused much trouble.

But after his disappearance, Su Chen faced relentless ambushes and narrow escapes, eventually being driven to the Myriad Realms Graveyard. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

"You want to kill me? With the likes of you?" Su Chen sneered. Behind him, a colossal treasure wheel emerged, radiating trillions of laws in brilliant light. In a single instant, endless radiance swept forth. Tens of thousands of Ruler-level powerhouses died on the spot. Anyone below the Twenty Tribulations realm could not withstand even a single ray of light and exploded into nothingness.

"Di Chen, how dare you?!" Several peerless experts roared in fury. Indestructible wheels of light revolved around them, each aura powerful enough to destroy countless universes. They had yet to become Immortals, yet they already wielded such terrifying might. Su Chen found their words laughable. They had come to kill him. What did he have to fear? In this battle, he held nothing back.

"Twenty-six Tribulations! You've actually passed the Twenty-sixth Tribulation!" In an unimaginably short period of less than a hundred million years, Su Chen had reached the Twenty-sixth Tribulation Ruler realm.

"Di Chen must die. If he lives, he will become the second Great Yang Emperor Lord!" The battle nearly sank the Myriad Realms Graveyard. It raged for countless years. The mountains of corpses and broken blades turned the already desolate land into an even more terrifying forbidden zone. This was a twilight of the gods. Su Chen's physical body was shattered, and the treasure wheel behind him was smashed into countless fragments. His Emperor Soul was left incomplete.

The heavens and earth darkened under the fury of the fight. Through the chaos, Su Chen vaguely saw a figure walking toward him. When the figure became clear, he recognized the faded blue robe and the calm, tranquil eyes.

"As expected…" Su Chen murmured. It was the Great Yang Emperor Lord. He had not died. While the outside world believed he had perished, he had simply vanished. Su Chen suddenly felt at peace. He sat down cross-legged as his body began to sublimate.

"Why?" he asked. Great Yang Emperor Lord answered calmly, "The End Times Immortal Domain has been destroyed." Su Chen understood that he was not referring to the faction within the Flying Immortal Land, but the true End Times Immortal Domain guarded by a True Immortal.

"So it was you," Su Chen said.

"You killed Xie Liuyun. You killed Dugu Wushuang. You killed all the other Immortal Spirits from the End Times Immortal Domain."The Great Yang Emperor Lord did not deny it. He simply admitted the truth.

"The True Immortal of the End Times Immortal Domain is dead," he said.

"Yet strands of his Immortal Qi remain within all of you."The Great Yang Emperor Lord had faked his death so he could secretly harvest the Immortal Spirits of the End Times Immortal Domain and prevent the failure of his immortality plan. With the True Immortal gone, the karmic seat of immortality still existed. The chances of an End Times Immortal Spirit achieving immortality were far higher than for anyone else in the Void Cosmic Sea. The Great Yang Emperor Lord wanted to become an Immortal.

"We both came from the End Times Immortal Domain. If I succeed, the End Times Immortal Domain will not truly perish," he said.

"I believe you understand." In the Great Yang Emperor Lord's eyes, Su Chen was already a dead man. Whether he agreed or not, he would become nourishment for his ascension. At their level, morality no longer existed—only self-interest remained. Su Chen could understand the Great Yang Emperor Lord's transformation, but he refused to willingly become a stepping stone for him. The light flowing around Su Chen's body transformed into an aura of deathly silence.

He gave up the chance to overcome the Twenty-seventh Tribulation. His Emperor Soul decayed, and his body fell into extinction. Great Yang Emperor Lord sighed.

"Why bother?" Su Chen would rather die and let his Dao perish than help him.

"This is my choice," Su Chen replied. On that day, the Myriad Realms Graveyard became an even greater land of supreme terror. In Su Chen's universe, all living beings wept.... Inside the Reverse Fate Space. He had given everything he could in this life. Unfortunately, his backing had collapsed first. The information the Great Yang Emperor Lord revealed was shocking. The End Times Immortal Domain had been destroyed, and even its True Immortal had died. This news would surely cause massive turmoil.

However, that was no longer his concern. What he cared about now…
