Chapter 387 - 294: Transmigrator Alliance, Dangers of the Void Realm, Death of the Supreme_2
[That is the Dragon of Destruction—Extreme Path Demon Dragon.]
[The members of the main character group, Bai Ze, Xuanming, and others, reacted fairly normally upon hearing they were merely "comic characters"; the high-level civilizations of the universe have studied this phenomenon.]
[Not surprising.]
[Some powerful high-dimensional life forms in the Abyssal Dimension and Void Land unconsciously project their deeds, true names, and images into other worlds.]
[Perhaps these projections exist in the past, present, or future of all worlds that have ever existed.]
[The concept of "isotope" has been mentioned in the Eight Great Parallel Cosmos.]
[It means, in other past, present, or future worlds, there is a version of oneself existing; in one world, you might be an Emperor, in another, perhaps a beggar, all are projections of one’s true spirit.]
[The deeds of the Profound Nether Adventurer Team are naturally unconsciously projected outward as well.]
[Those who receive these memories will perceive them as a grand dream, their "burst of inspiration" leading them to record them, and these stories will undergo the "artistic modification" of the "recorder," eventually creating—"Star Sea Martial Arts Practitioner".]
[But a single comic cannot contain a full, true life.]
[At least most of the events in "Star Sea Martial Arts Practitioner" do not match Bai Ze himself at all.]
[Xuanming decided to solve the matter of the Pirate Legion’s leader en route, as they inadvertently stumbled upon a conspiracy.]
[The Pirate Legion’s leader turned out to be the Guardian Star General of the Immortal Emperor.]
[The Immortal Emperor has already made an agreement with the Demon Abyss Will: upon the cosmos’s destruction, they can enter the Abyssal Dimension to become a lord.]
[This is a fallback plan.]
[In dealing with the Extreme Path Demon Dragon, the "Sixteen Demon Emperors" of the Abyssal Dimension need to intervene in the universe, but due to the Cosmic Will’s suppression, to descend with full strength requires sacrificing several star systems.]
[Just some "worthless" Primordial Planets... Immortal Emperor Gobel, who governs super clusters, agreed as expected.]
[This Immortal Emperor Gobel belongs to the "Stellar Giant Beast" race, which, during growth, naturally consumes "planets" as food; due to the cosmic network, fearing the influence of high-level civilizations and the cosmic professionals council, they have been constrained in the universe and have long wanted to join the Abyssal Dimension.]
[The group’s emotions reach their utmost intensity; during an accidental conflict on a Primordial Planet, they offend Immortal Emperor Gobel.]
[Since then, the group falls into an unprecedented crisis. Immortal Emperor Gobel and the Soul Refining Demon Venerable—two radiant life forms—join forces to pursue them, their silhouettes looming overhead, bringing destructive blows each time they appear.]
[After several escapes from death, the group’s physical and mental endurance neared its limit.]
[Xuanming and Jiu Yue were both heavily injured, and Bai Ze’s plea for help on the cosmic network finally yields results.]
[Finally, reinforcements arrive. The silhouettes of the Three Radiant Ones and the Four Gods of Apocalypse slowly manifest from the void.]
[However, their arrival doesn’t settle the situation but instead escalates the conflict. The accumulated animosity between the Immortal Nine Emperors and the Three Radiant Ones, Four Gods of Apocalypse, explodes suddenly, igniting a cosmic battle in an instant.]
[——In any case, they intend to reset the cosmos, so there’s no need for so many concerns.]
[The strongest in the universe split into two factions to fight.]
[This battle extends over thousands of star systems, with waves of energy sweeping across the cosmos like tides. Seizing the opportunity, three Demon Emperors from the Abyssal Dimension descend, plunging the cosmic situation into total chaos; every moment, Primordial Planets vanish in energy shocks, turning into cosmic dust.]
[High-level civilizations respond by joining the battle led by the Four Gods of Apocalypse, turning the universe into a war zone wherever they go.]
[Three factions fight fiercely.]
[Chaos.]
[Chaos.]
[The Demon Abyss Will descends, shattering the cosmic network, confusing high-level civilizations, unable to distinguish friend from foe; the cosmos reverts to its most primordial state in an instant—in the darkness, do not expose your position.]
[Once exposed, destruction is what awaits.]
[Immortal Emperor Gobel and the Soul Refining Demon Venerable disengage from the cosmic battle, resuming their pursuit of Bai Ze and the others.]
[After losing contact with the Three Radiant Ones and Four Gods of Apocalypse, Bai Ze escapes to the Milky Way Galaxy; only Phoenix Bai Xiao can stop all this now.]
[Ten years later, the Profound Nether Ship charges straight into the Milky Way Galaxy.]
["Is this... the Milky Way Galaxy?!"]
[The Soul Refining Demon Venerable’s silhouette abruptly halts, a trace of undisguised fear flashing in its eyes, and it unhesitatingly ceases its chase.]
[The World Tree had given its evolved essence to the Soul Refining Demon Venerable, allowing it to become a radiant life form thousands of years ahead of time; facing the immature Phoenix, at least... a fifty percent chance of success.]
[However... the world changes too quickly; without a full guarantee, it’s not prudent!]
[Weighing the pros and cons, the Soul Refining Demon Venerable resolutely turns away, its silhouette vanishing into the depths of the cosmos without even a word of explanation to Immortal Emperor Gobel.]
[The Soul Refining Demon Venerable’s mind brims with memories of countless encounters with the Phoenix.]
[To him, Phoenix Bai Xiao’s terror far surpasses the Extreme Path Demon Dragon; he’d rather betray allies than confront that existence which once drove him to despair.]
["Unforgivable... you’ll pay the price for this!"]
[Meanwhile, the Immortal Emperor Gobel charges menacingly into the Milky Way Galaxy; its Star General, its painstakingly nurtured offspring born from the "planet’s" life, are killed at the hands of Xuanming and others.]
[Even the "Phoenix" must pay for this!]
["Still chasing?"]
[The Immortal Emperor remains relentless; Bai Ze is stunned, for without the cosmic network, they cannot use "Instant Messaging" to contact Bai Xiao light years away.]
[At the same time.]
[The Milky Way Galaxy, Return Star.]
[Presence of no technology whatsoever.]
[This planet is shrouded in a peaceful atmosphere, with endless green plains, dense grass swaying with the wind, grass blades tall enough to obscure a person’s height, air filled with the fresh scent of grass and soil.]
[Occasionally, a few white birds glide across the sky, emitting crisp chirps.]
[This is one of the nine Transformed Stars where the Martial Arts Holy Land·Yan Sect is located and is also the place of retreat for the cosmic legend "Bai Xiao."]
[Xiao Ying lies with eyes closed, face serene, his entire being resting on the grassland, body deeply embedded in the dense green ocean.]
[After instructing twelve members of the Purple Gold Martial Arts Family, Xiao Ying reclines on Return Star’s grass, sleeping, disconnected from the world.]
[Ten years; undisturbed, only the breeze gently passing.]
[Post comprehension of "Eight Extremes Heaven·Extreme Demon Dragon," he’s expelled from the Abyssal Dimension, temporarily unable to break through with the Power of Destruction. His focus returns to Martial Arts, seeking answers within Dao.]
[Yet, despite his efforts, he can’t make that crucial step.]
[Only extreme emotions can ascend the soul dimensionally—it’s simple, to heighten any emotion such as joy, anger, grief, or emptiness to the extreme.]
[Joy, anger, grief for Xiao Ying are so rare. But once stepping into "Void" Realm, consciousness is omnipresent, lacking self-awareness.]
[In accordance with ancient cultural sayings—Harmonization.]
[In the universe, one ultimate life form achieved Void Realm, that is now the Supreme of the cosmic network—just half a step earned it, losing self-awareness, becoming a cosmic spectacle.]
[Its existence heralded an epoch where cosmic civilizations synchronized across millions of light years, the most magnificent and prosperous era at universe’s origin, where strong forces united to maintain order, birthing the Known Cosmos, precipitating technological explosions.]
[Supreme can be said to have sacrificed self, illuminating the dark cosmos.]
[Truly tragic.]
[Thus Xiao Ying can’t take the final step, nor comprehend "Carefree Wanderings"]
[Suddenly, Xiao Ying’s eyes snap open, puzzled.]
["Supreme? Is actually dead?"]
