Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 586 - 561 Crossing Reincarnation (Part 2)

After killing the last unicorn beetle, Wang Xu and his companions celebrated joyously in the hotel's bar within the base, raising their glasses in a toast.

Overjoyed by the apparent "resurrection" of everything, Wang Xu got himself completely wasted, and eventually, overwhelmed by the numbing alcohol, he vomited profusely.

He was helped into his room by Red Axe and Blue Sword, as if he were a slab of mud.

Wang Xu lay on the bed, his face showing his drunkenness, smiling foolishly.

"Wang Xu, it's time to wake up."

Woosh!

A ghostly figure in a red robe appeared.

In an instant, the drunkenness vanished from Wang Xu's face, and all memories surged like waves.

"Indeed, it's time to wake up."

Wang Xu sighed emotionally.

All of this could never be returned to.

Even though his current strength was comparable to the Extreme Dao Ancestor Realm, capable of risking everything to reverse the laws and revive living beings from the Ganges River.

But Jin Tun, Red Axe, they were not cultivators, not even Star Level, their soul memories long washed away by the Ganges River.

The members of the Red Flame Squad were like this, as were all the people from the Earth lineage.

Even if he possessed the strength of the Great Emperor Realm, he could no longer revive them; these scenes before him could only remain forever in his mind.

"Let's go, the allure of reincarnation is indeed strong. Had it not been for your appearance, with my state of mind, I could not have passed this challenge." Wang Xu stood up.

The appearance of You Ji brought Wang Xu complete clarity.

Everything from the past was not a dream, now it was his stay that was.

"Being able to reunite with the captain and them, I am already very satisfied."

Wang Xu smiled lightly, unleashing a terrifying force.

Boom!

Instantly, everything around him was turned to ashes under the erosion of this fearsome power.

The surroundings reverted to a state of white light and mist, and a path stretching into the endlessness unfurled beneath Wang Xu's feet.

Wang Xu started sprinting down this long path.

Soon, he saw the scene of the Doma tribe attacking Earth, the past horrors replaying again, and yet Wang Xu merely glanced, continuing his mad dash forward without turning his head.

Those broken scenes all transformed into a mass of white mist, forming beautifully blooming flowers.

The Flowers of Reincarnation.

When the Flowers of Reincarnation bloom throughout the entire cycle, the other side will appear.

The audience at the Tai Long National Hall, apprenticeship at the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, the war across the Ancient Luo Cosmos, the Divine Sect war...each past event shook Wang Xu's state of mind.

Countless times Wang Xu was trapped as if it were the first time.

In that moment, Wang Xu almost truly believed that everything from the past was an illusion, and the present was reality.

Fortunately, the appearance of You Ji saved Wang Xu from danger, allowing him to continue racing along the path.

It had been as long as twenty thousand years.

As the time Wang Xu was "confused" grew longer, the past cycles increasingly had a significant impact on him.

Especially after Wang Xu revived his family, at that time, even when You Ji appeared, he was unwilling to leave this Illusion Realm.

Everything was so beautiful, as if sadness and pain no longer existed, leaving only a heart full of happiness.

"You Ji... you're really... too harsh with that move!"

Wang Xu lay on the road, incredibly weak, gasping for breath.

His face was deathly pale, and all the Power of Laws and Sacred Qi in him were drained by You Ji, leaving only an empty shell.

"Your state of mind is too wavering, clearly knowing it's an illusion, yet you willingly sink into it. I didn't want you to end up like this, had to use some special means!" You Ji smirked slyly, clearly with schadenfreude.

Deprived of power, Wang Xu had no choice but to be dragged out of the Illusion Realm ruthlessly by You Ji.

You Ji had the most stable state of mind, born from Chaos Nurturing, he never spoke of mentality.

All calamities of ascension were just small matters for You Ji.

"Hurry up! Keep moving forward! In this cycle, you've spent thirty thousand years!" You Ji urged.

Regaining his strength, Wang Xu got up and sped onward.

Each cycle was like a truly lived life.

Carrying his memories, Wang Xu was "reborn" countless times.

The more he experienced, the less reincarnation affected Wang Xu, this effect was significant, so much so that later when Wang Xu returned to the Ancient Luo Cosmos and saw the Earth lineage existing again, it didn't shake his state of mind.

All the past turned to ashes.

"That's..."

This time, the shattered scenes did not turn into white light mist, but in the distance, at the end of the road, they formed a remarkably beautiful flower.

The Flower of the Other Side.

"That's the end!"

Wang Xu dashed towards it.

At that moment—

Boom!

Wang Xu only felt a mighty and overwhelming force slam into his back, unstoppable, sending him flying!

"Wow..." A mouthful of blood spurted out, and a grizzly scar that could not heal appeared on Wang Xu's back.

"You...You Ji?"

Wang Xu's lips trembled, unable to believe his eyes as he looked at the person who attacked him.

A red robe, expressionless face, cold eyes, it was You Ji.

"You... No! This is an illusion! It has to be!" Wang Xu immediately reacted.

"No, this is not an illusion." You Ji spoke, his voice emanating as if from the Nine Netherworld Hell, captivating the soul, "I have waited too long for this moment."

"Waited for what?!" Wang Xu still did not believe it; he knew for certain he was in an illusion.

You Ji and he were symbiotic; killing Wang Xu would be the same as committing suicide. Why would You Ji do such a foolish thing?

"Waited for you to cross reincarnation, and the moment you are about to achieve Ancestor." You Ji spoke coldly, "I'm sorry, Wang Xu, although I really apologize to you, this is the truth."

"From the beginning, the Earth in the Ancient Luo Cosmos, until now in Chaos, everything was orchestrated by me."

"Perhaps you don't know, to grant the Seed of Chaos true life, mere spirituality and a rebuilt body aren't enough..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Bang!

You Ji waved a hand, and just as Wang Xu was about to use the God-Suppressing Palm, he found himself powerless against You Ji and was sent flying, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.

Sacred Qi, the Power of Laws, everything was absorbed by You Ji until nearly nothing was left.

The current Wang Xu was no match for You Ji at all!

"Let me advise you, don't waste your strength."

You Ji said coldly, "Everything you have was given by me, and naturally, I have the right to take it back, including the body with which you now possess three Heaven-Shocking Secret Collections."

"You... what are you doing!" Wang Xu gritted his teeth, struggling to get up from the ground.

"I told you, all of this is my scheme, so that when you are about to cross reincarnation and attain the Ancestor Realm, I can seize your body, replace you and become the Ancestor Realm myself!"

"I have waited too long for this moment, acted it out to this extent, I deserve a bit of reward now."

You Ji's gaze was indifferent, like that of a lofty king, unconcernedly watching Wang Xu.

"No... this isn't true! It can't be!"

Wang Xu murmured, still unwilling to believe it.

If he were trapped in reincarnation, he should treat everything from the past as a dream, something he had experienced countless times.

What drove Wang Xu to despair was that his memory and consciousness were all too clear now.

He was not trapped in reincarnation!

Everything he was experiencing now was real!

"No need to doubt, I know you can't accept it, no one could."

You Ji said coldly, "My purpose has already been achieved, Wang Xu, let me erase your soul."

"Your life began with me, so naturally, it should end with me."

"I will live on well in your place..."

Rumble~~

A massive millstone appeared hovering above Wang Xu's head.

Sacred Qi and Power of Laws were absorbed, but Soul Power could not be taken.

Yet to use Soul Power, it must rely on the Power of Laws and Sacred Qi to be wielded.

Having lost these two powers, Wang Xu was now burning his Inner Cosmos to wield Soul Power.

The Inner Cosmos was rapidly depleting.

Once the Inner Cosmos was destroyed, the Saint Venerable Realm would also fall.

"Really? Is it all true?"

"I don't believe! Even if it kills me, I won't believe!"

"This must be the Illusion Realm, it must be!!!"

Wang Xu roared, bellowed.

He refused to believe any of this was true, even in death!

"The Dunhuang Secret Collection, the Chong Feng Secret Collection, and my nameless right hand, I sacrifice my life for your power, destroy this Illusion Realm before me!"

In a fury, Wang Xu was nearly driven to madness.

"Just accept death peacefully, don't resist, Wang Xu..."

You Ji's large hand approached.

"Die!!!"

Wang Xu hurled the millstone fiercely at You Ji!

Is all this a lie?

Yes, it's all a lie, I want to completely shatter this Illusion Realm!

Splash!

The extreme brilliance radiated from that Blooming Flower Across the Shore.

...

Meanwhile, outside the Core of Chaos.

Rumble~~

A grand Ancestor Stele descended from the sky.

Many people nodded upon seeing this, it seemed the Ancient Luo Saint Venerable had succeeded.

Yet in the next moment, everyone was stunned.

"This... is this an Ancestor Stele?"

"A metal Ancestor Stele? Why have I never seen such a thing?"

Upon seeing the true appearance of the Ancestor Stele, everyone was shocked.

Even every Great Emperor figure was no exception.

A metal Ancestor Stele?

They had neither seen nor heard of it!

"Metal Ancestor Stele... could it be..." Only Shu Zi the Great Emperor seemed to have thought of something, his eyes glimmering with brilliance, as if he'd seen a treasure coveted by even Great Emperors.

The metal Ancestor Stele fell into the Core of Chaos, quickly becoming silent.

Everyone waited collectively for a moment, wanting to see what was different about this Ancient Luo Saint Venerable, for such an unprecedented metal Ancestor Stele to appear!

But they waited for a full hour, and the Core of Chaos still showed no change.

"Hmm?"

At this, even Shu Zi the Great Emperor frowned.

The descent of the Ancestor Stele indicates successful Ancestral Transformation, and even if a cultivator wanted to stay in the Core of Chaos, they would be forcibly sent away by it.

Yet contrary to their expectations, the Core of Chaos remained utterly still.

"Why hasn't he come out after so long? Could it be that the Ancestor Stele we saw was an illusion and he didn't succeed at all?"

"How could the unique aura of an Ancestor Stele be faked? Besides, didn't you see even the Great Emperors puzzled, indicating this is indeed highly unusual."

Everyone awaited eagerly.

Yet within the Core of Chaos, something earth-shattering was transpiring! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile readers, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
