Chapter 390: Death to Those Who Cross This Line (Seeking Subscription)
"The Celestial Gate, it has appeared!"
"This is the Celestial Gate. I can feel the entire two-dimensional world trembling."
"I now believe that by passing through the Celestial Gate, one can truly leave this world."
On the mountainside, countless powerful beings from the Myriad Races gazed excitedly at the peak, where a towering 'Celestial Gate' over ten meters tall was taking form amidst the surging spatial energies.
"The Celestial Gate?"
The Four Divine Kings regarded it solemnly. Even though he considered himself invincible in this two-dimensional world, he couldn't help but feel a sense of tension.
The Celestial Gate was his chance to leave, and the price of staying behind for the other powerful beings of the Myriad Races was a fundamental loss of a portion of their spirit will.
But for the Four Divine Kings, failure to return to the universe would mean losing not just a part of his spirit will but also an ultimate weapon.
Even for the most powerful beings, acquiring an ultimate weapon that perfectly suits them is no easy feat.
All the more so for the Four Divine Kings.
If he were to leave his ultimate weapon behind in this two-dimensional world, the Four Divine Kings would likely have to wait until he became one of the most powerful beings before acquiring another suitable one.
But how long would that take?
And even then, the Four Divine Kings had no guarantee of success in becoming the ultimate being.
Otherwise, things wouldn't have been delayed until now.
"This time, I must be the one to enter the Celestial Gate!" The Four Divine Kings' expression turned fierce, and an indescribable power flowed between his four arms.
"Is that the Celestial Gate?"
Far away, Lin Yuan also observed the gate. "What immense spatial fluctuations!"
Lin Yuan was amazed. The spatial fluctuations emanating from the silver mirror were like fireflies compared to the radiant moonlight of the Celestial Gate.
The two were simply not on the same level.
"To leave this two-dimensional world, one must pass through the Celestial Gate."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. It was impossible for a single person to generate such immense spatial fluctuations.
Outside the Scroll World.
The moment the Celestial Gate began to materialize.
Dozens of the most powerful beings stood ready. According to their estimations, if the Celestial Gate connected the two-dimensional world to the main universe.
Then, as the Celestial Gate appeared, the two-dimensional world, which had been isolated by the 'White Paper', would establish a connection with the main universe.
At that time, they, as the most powerful beings, would be able to better observe the true nature of the 'White Paper'.
They might even be able to interfere with the two-dimensional world.
For example, they could forcibly 'fish out' the powerful beings of the Myriad Races who were trapped within?
With the White Paper as a barrier, the most powerful beings were unable to influence the inside of the two-dimensional world.
However, if a connection was established, with their means, they would certainly be able to 'rescue' those trapped within.
However.
Moments later.
The expressions of the most powerful beings outside the scroll turned grim.
"What's going on?"
"Why is there still no change on the outside now that the Celestial Gate has started to materialize inside?"
"According to the reports, the appearance of the Celestial Gate is accompanied by immense spatial fluctuations, which are characteristic of the formation of a spatial passage. Why is there no reaction outside at all?"
The most powerful beings were filled with doubt.
According to the normal behavior of spatial passages, fluctuations should occur in both spaces to establish a connection.
"Has something unexpected happened?"
"Let's wait a little longer. Perhaps the Celestial Gate hasn't fully materialized yet, so it hasn't affected the outside world."
"Yes, let's wait a bit longer. It should be almost ready once the Celestial Gate fully takes shape."
The group of powerful beings exchanged glances and continued to wait patiently.
Having lived through countless ages, patience was one thing they had in abundance.
At the peak of Sky Mountain.
The instant the Celestial Gate began to materialize.
The Four Divine Kings and the other five perfectly ascended eleventh-stage legendary lives charged towards the gate.
A thunderous rumble echoed as terrifying sound waves shook the area in all directions.
In just an instant, the Four Divine Kings and the slender elder exchanged hundreds of moves.
"Let's deal with the Four Divine Kings first."
The slender elder and the other four glanced at each other and quickly joined forces to suppress the Four Divine Kings.
In their eyes, the Four Divine Kings posed too great a threat. If they left him be, by the time they determined a victor, they would only be left with the scraps.
"You want to deal with me first?"
"And you think you're worthy?"
The Four Divine Kings laughed maniacally, his four arms waving as dense vital energy spread out.
Riiiiip!
The Four Divine Kings' four arms were incredibly agile. With a light probe, he patted the chest of the three-meter-tall burly man.
The three-meter-tall man, also a perfectly ascended eleventh-stage legendary life, paled as his body was sent flying backward. He only stopped after retreating a hundred meters.
Swoosh!
The three-meter-tall man's figure disappeared, only to reappear in the battlefield where he continued to fight against the Four Divine Kings.
Buzz!
As the Four Divine Kings fought against the slender elder and the other four powerful beings, the terrifying aftershocks of their attacks practically plowed through the entire peak of Sky Mountain.
"Too strong!"
"How can the Four Divine Kings be so powerful?"
At the summit, over a hundred eleventh-stage powerhouses had originally intended to approach the Celestial Gate and see if they could take advantage of the chaos.
But witnessing the intense battle between the Four Divine Kings and the other five powerful beings, they dared not come any closer.
Anyone who dared to approach the Celestial Gate at this moment would become the target of the Four Divine Kings and the other five's attacks, and their chances of survival were slim to none, even with defensive treasures.
Even if a defensive treasure could block ninety-nine percent of the attacks, the remaining one percent of the aftershocks would be enough to annihilate any powerful being of the Myriad Races.
"Damn it!"
Near the central area of the summit, Hou Zhu of the Prison Clan held a blood-red long saber, his face filled with unwillingness.
He was one of the few powerful beings of the Myriad Races bold enough to bring a treasure into this battle.
However, Hou Zhu hadn't directly used his treasure either. The blood-red long saber was stored within a wooden box, and no one knew what was inside.
"To exhibit such strength in this two-dimensional world, are the Four Divine Kings not too outrageous?"
"It's fortunate that we descended from the peak earlier. Otherwise, in the aftermath of their battle, I would have suffered severe injuries, if not death."
"Ah, it seems I won't have the chance to enter the Celestial Gate. The Four Divine Kings and those five powerful beings have already taken up six spots. I can't possibly stay in this two-dimensional world for seventy thousand years."
One by one, the strong beings of the Myriad Races watched the battle unfold, despair welling up within them.
Some of the Myriad Races' strong beings even chose to extinguish their avatars, accepting the inevitable loss of a portion of their spirit will rather than prolong the inevitable.
On the side of the Human Civilization, the evolvers, including Xuanyuan Do, were also watching the battle beneath the Celestial Gate with bated breath.
"Blood Rain, should we give up on this opportunity to pass through the Celestial Gate?" Xuanyuan Do couldn't help but ask, truly frightened by the intense clash between the Four Divine Kings and the other powerful beings.
"Let's wait a little longer," Lin Yuan said casually.
Thus far, the Four Divine Kings had not yet utilized their ultimate weapon.
The battle between the six powerful beings appeared extremely fierce,
but none of them were truly going all out.
The five Eleventh-Stage Perfect Legendary Lives, led by the slender elder, had also not yet unleashed any of their unique artifacts.
Beneath the Celestial Gate—
"Huff! Huff!"
The six figures were engaged in a frenzied battle.
"The Celestial Gate is about to fully manifest."
"You four, work together to hold him off. I'll go take a look at the Celestial Gate."
The slender elder quickly disengaged and made his way toward the Celestial Gate.
According to the intelligence gathered within this two-dimensional world, once the Celestial Gate opened, only the first life to stand before it would have the chance to attempt to open it.
This meant that strength alone was not the deciding factor. Even if the Four Divine Kings were the most powerful individual, if they didn't stand before the Celestial Gate, the slender elder might enter it first.
"You dare?"
The Four Divine Kings went insane.
A hazy light shone between his four arms, and a soul-shaking aura instantly covered the entire peak.
"The Four Divine Kings have unleashed their ultimate weapon."
The slender elder, who had intended to approach the Celestial Gate, immediately turned back.
His previous actions had been intended to provoke the Four Divine Kings and force them to use their ultimate weapon ahead of time.
If the Four Divine Kings had held off a little longer and allowed the slender elder to get closer to the Celestial Gate, the other four Eleventh-Stage Perfect Legendary Lives might have made their move as well.
Boom!
A terrifying aura exploded forth, and the slender elder and the other four powerful beings also immediately unleashed their unique artifacts.
In an instant, the battle beneath the Celestial Gate escalated to a whole new level, and the terrifying aftermath of their clash caused the height of the peak to continuously erode.
"Hahahaha! You five useless things, do you really think you can handle me by joining forces?"
The Four Divine Kings' four arms swung wildly, and with each attack, they unleashed a power that caused the auras of the slender elder and the other four Eleventh-Stage Perfect Legendary Lives to fluctuate violently.
"So strong?"
The slender elder's expression turned grim, but he did not back down.
The Celestial Gate was right before them, and unless absolutely necessary, he was unwilling to give up.
Although the Four Divine Kings were holding their own against the five of them, it did not mean they would definitely emerge victorious.
Boom! The auras of the slender elder and the other four powerful beings surged once more, holding off the Four Divine Kings' frenzied attacks.
"Let's go!"
"We can't stay here any longer!"
"Run!"
One by one, the Eleventh-Stage powerhouses standing on the peak began to sprint down toward the mountain's waist.
They had a feeling that if they stayed any longer, their lives might be in danger.
"Blood Rain, we should leave too!"
Xuanyuan Do spoke with urgency in her voice. They had been able to withstand the pressure emitted by the Four Divine Kings and the others only because of Lin Yuan's protection.
Most human evolvers didn't even have the qualifications to stand on the peak, and now that the battle between the Four Divine Kings and the five powerful beings had escalated, staying any longer would be courting death.
"Leave?"
"Why should we leave?"
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, his gaze still fixed on the Celestial Gate, which had mostly manifested. "I had thought that a refined ultimate weapon would be able to exhibit how much power in this world, but it seems that's not the case."
"What do you mean?" Xuanyuan Do was perplexed. She didn't understand why Blood Rain was still talking about the power of an ultimate weapon at a time like this when they should be thinking about avoiding the aftermath of the battle.
However—
Before Xuanyuan Do could snap out of her daze, Lin Yuan, who stood before her, casually took a step forward and vanished from his original spot.
Beneath the Celestial Gate, the Four Divine Kings and the slender elder, who had been engaged in a frenzied clash, suddenly felt their scalps tingle as if facing a life-or-death situation. A sense of immense fear arose within them, and they began to retreat wildly without the slightest hesitation.
Shush!
A figure crossed the spot where they had been standing and appeared before the almost fully manifested Celestial Gate.
This figure, with his back to the Four Divine Kings and the other five powerful beings, raised his right hand and gently drew a line in the air behind him.
A constantly vibrating black aura appeared, encircling more than half of the peak, leaving the Four Divine Kings and the other five powerful beings outside the boundary of this black line.
Only then did Lin Yuan spare a glance at the Four Divine Kings and the other powerful beings.
"Death to those who cross this line!"
