Chapter 714: Re-Entering the Gate of Wonders
Chapter 714: Re-Entering the Gate of Wonders
Chen Mu, now a Venerated Attainer, had overcome all crises, and his serene mindset allowed him to cultivate Chen Yue, Chen Yao, and others with ease.
As a Venerated being, he took Chen Yue and Chen Yao on a journey, not to ordinary places, but to the Shiyuan Kongyu, a realm that held little interest even for him. He intended to take Chen Yue and Chen Yao to explore the Yuan Jing!
Yuan Jing,
Only those at the Ninth Heaven could enter, and to survive there for an extended period, one had to reach the perfection of the Ninth Heaven. For a Divine Lord, it was almost impossible to defy the rules formed by the Prime Source Way, but a Venerated being could!
Now, as a Venerated being of both Void and Creation systems, Chen Mu easily brought several sentient beings into the Yuan Jing.
This journey to Yuan Jing wasn't solely for Chen Yue and Chen Yao's cultivation. In fact, Chen Mu also wanted to explore Yuan Jing. After attaining Veneration, the only thing that slightly obscured his vision in the vast universe was the Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing was, after all, the supreme realm constructed by the Prime Source Way, imbued with special Way rules, and even capable of nurturing Venerated-class beasts with its unique Hunyuan power. For a Way Monarch, while they could enter and exit freely, traversing back and forth, understanding the entirety of Yuan Jing's mysteries was still slightly beyond their grasp.
If one could truly comprehend the essence of Yuan Jing, even without transcending, they would be close to true transcendence.
Yuan Jing,
Before the Gate of Wonders, a majestic city gate stood tall, extending outward from this gate, forming an expansive and grand city. Compared to Chen Mu's previous visit, it was now even more prosperous.
With the final catastrophe approaching, almost ninety-nine percent of the Nine Heavens Divine Lords in the universe were rushing here. Even in the midst of the final catastrophe, new Nine Heavens Divine Lords were constantly being born, and numerous Divine Lords were making their way here.
Here,
Divine Lords of the Ninth Heaven were everywhere.
Imagine a grand city composed of millions of sentient beings, where almost every being was a Divine Lord of the Ninth Heaven. What a breathtaking scene, leaving Chen Yue and Chen Yao, who were visiting for the first time, overwhelmed.
"Is this Yuan Jing?!"
Following Chen Mu, Chen Yue, sensing the countless intricate auras within the city, was astonished by the continuous surge of thick and powerful Ninth Heaven divine power.
Having broken through to the Eighth Heaven, she was also a Divine Lord. In the Huang Yan Kong Zuo, she had undergone training and tribulations, even witnessing battles involving tens of thousands of Divine Lords, and personally experiencing that massive melee. But compared to here, the conflicts in Huang Yan Kong Zuo were like child's play.
Here, every existence was a Divine Lord of the Ninth Heaven, capable of dominating the Huang Yan Kong Zuo.
"Yuan Jing? This isn't it."
Hearing Chen Yue's words, Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, turning his gaze towards the distant Gate of Wonders, and said, "Beyond that gate is the true entrance to Yuan Jing."
For a Way Monarch, it was indeed possible to forcefully break through the outer Void of Yuan Jing and intrude into its interior without passing through the Gate of Wonders, but doing so would often cause a huge disturbance. For Chen Mu, there was no need to force his way in. After all, he was bringing Chen Yue and Chen Yao, and he intended to let them enter Yuan Jing ahead of time, following him to experience the ever-changing Way within Yuan Jing and comprehend its profound mysteries.
Although this approach might be seen as forcing premature growth, with the final catastrophe approaching, he still wanted them to reach the Ninth Heaven before the universe's end and accompany him in witnessing the universe's annihilation and creation.
"Let's go."
Chen Mu took a glance at the towering Gate of Wonders between heaven and earth and stepped forward.
The last time he came here, he hadn't fully grasped the fate of sentient beings, struggling in the sea of bitterness. But this time, although he hadn't reached the other shore of transcendence, he had boarded the Void Creation boat, floating on the surface of the sea of bitterness, detaching himself from this vast sea that bore countless sentient beings.
He could calmly face the Gate of Wonders and bring Chen Yue and Chen Yao, who hadn't yet reached the Ninth Heaven, to this place.
Swish!
Chen Mu walked in front, with Chen Yue and Chen Yao following behind. The three of them stepped through the Void, passing by one palace after another, until they reached the front of the Gate of Wonders.
At this moment, before the Gate of Wonders, countless Divine Lords of the Ninth Heaven were continuously flying in, and Chen Mu, along with Chen Yue and the others, blended into the crowd, barely noticeable.
However, when the three arrived directly in front of the Gate of Wonders, some gazes still fell upon them, filled with slight astonishment.
"Hmm? Who is this? Their aura is so perfectly concealed that I can't sense their qi at all."
"Why did you bring two youngsters from the Eighth Heaven? You're not planning to take them inside, are you?"
Someone glanced at Chen Yue and Chen Yao.
Chen Mu's aura was impenetrable, but Chen Yue and Chen Yao could easily discern the truth. They were merely at the Eighth Heaven, and they didn't qualify to enter the Source Realm. Moreover, even if Chen Mu forcibly brought them in and shared his Primordial Power with them, it would be difficult for them to endure the rules and pressures within the Source Realm. They wouldn't be able to survive in such an environment.
"Hmm? Is it him?"
At that moment, someone else revealed a surprised expression, recognizing Chen Mu.
Zhen Yan Divine Lord stood not far from the Gate of Wonders, observing each Nine Heavens Deus as they entered the gate. After noticing Chen Mu's arrival with Chen Yue and Chen Yao, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Although he couldn't sense any aura or causal traces from Chen Mu, he still recognized him at a glance. When Chen Mu had come here before, Zhen Yan Divine Lord had tried to invite Chen Mu to join forces and explore the Source Realm together, only to be rejected by Chen Mu.
After that,
He watched as Chen Mu entered the Source Realm alone.
And then, he completely lost track of Chen Mu. After entering the Source Realm, Chen Mu didn't appear for dozens of epochs, which also slightly surprised Zhen Yan Divine Lord. He wouldn't have expected that Chen Mu, a newcomer to the Source Realm, would find a way to survive for so long within it.
But since he and Chen Mu had only met once, Zhen Yan Divine Lord was only slightly surprised and quickly forgot about it. After all, this situation wasn't too strange. Even if Chen Mu was new to the Source Realm, his strength might have already reached the Ninth Heaven Perfection. It wasn't surprising for him to be able to stay within the Source Realm during his first visit.
This could also explain why Chen Mu directly refused his invitation to join forces with Gu Hong Divine Lord.
However, this time...
Zhen Yan Divine Lord's expression turned thoughtful.
After a period of time, he was no longer the same as before. His cultivation had already reached the Ninth Heaven Perfection!
He was seeking a suitable opportunity to re-enter the Source Realm and find a way to survive within it. After this entry, even if the universe were to perish, he wouldn't come out again. He would either attain enlightenment and transcend the cycle of reincarnation or perish along with the universe's destruction.
Chen Mu's reappearance here indicated that he had encountered difficulties in the Source Realm and was unable to resolve them. This time, he should be regrouping and preparing to re-enter the Source Realm.
With this thought,
Zhen Yan Divine Lord immediately transmitted his voice, "Brother Mu, it's been a long time."
As these words entered Chen Mu's ears, his gaze flickered slightly, and he turned to look at Zhen Yan Divine Lord. With a light nod, he said, "It has been a long time."
"Brother Mu..."
Seeing that he hadn't mistaken the person, Zhen Yan Divine Lord smiled and was about to approach Chen Mu to discuss joining forces.
However, before Zhen Yan Divine Lord could extend the invitation, he saw Chen Mu nodding lightly at him. Then, Chen Mu directly led Chen Yue and Chen Yao towards the Gate of Wonders.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, Zhen Yan Divine Lord's steps paused, and he was slightly taken aback.
Chen Yue and Chen Yao's cultivation levels were clear to him; they were at most at the Eighth Heaven. Was Chen Mu planning to bring two youngsters from the Eighth Heaven into the Source Realm? What a strange move!
Before Zhen Yan Divine Lord could voice his reminder, Chen Mu and the two women had already stepped into the Gate of Wonders.
Hum!!!
Suddenly, the Gate of Wonders glowed with a golden light, as if it had touched upon some rule, and a surging pressure descended, falling directly towards Chen Yue and Chen Yao. It seemed to forcefully repel them.
Not having reached the Ninth Heaven, they didn't qualify to pass through the Gate of Wonders. This was one of the rules established by the Primordial Dao. Essentially, it was also a form of protection. Without reaching the Ninth Heaven, one couldn't endure the rules and environment within the Source Realm. Their divine power would directly dissipate and vanish, so the Gate of Wonders would block those who hadn't reached the Ninth Heaven.
At this moment,
The sudden commotion at the Gate of Wonders also caught the attention of the nearby Nine Heavens Deus, who had been heading towards the gate. They all halted in mid-air, looking at the Gate of Wonders with a mix of astonishment and uncertainty.
Chen Mu brings Chen Yue and Chen Yao here, which is not surprising. There are even Nine Heavens Deus here, surrounded by numerous servants and attendants. But it's a bit strange for Chen Mu to bring Chen Yue and Chen Yao into the Yuan Jing.
"Doesn't he know that he can't enter the Yuan Jing below the Nine Heavens?"
"It seems he doesn't know."
"What's the point of bringing two Eighth Heaven juniors into it? It's just a waste of Prime Source Power."
As numerous Nine Heavens Deus gaze upon the Gate of Wonders, either shaking their heads with a strange expression or finding it somewhat amusing, they suddenly see an anomaly occurring in front of the Gate of Wonders.
Facing the overwhelming pressure that suddenly rises, as well as the expulsion golden light that envelops Chen Yue and Chen Yao, Chen Mu casually waves his sleeve, and in an instant, an indescribable supreme power descends.
Boom!!!
The golden light of the Gate of Wonders shatters.
That Nine Heavens Deus power is impossible to resist the rules of the Great Way, and at this moment, it is broken by Chen Mu's wave. Then, he takes Chen Yue and Chen Yao and walks straight into the interior of the Gate of Wonders, and their backs quickly disappear in front of the gate.
"This..."
In front of the Gate of Wonders, there is suddenly a moment of silence.
All the Nine Heavens Deus who are watching this scene are almost all dumbfounded, revealing an incredulous expression.
"Impossible!"
"The rules of the Gate of Wonders have been forcibly dispersed?"
"How did he do it?"
Numerous Nine Heavens Deus all have a somewhat incredulous look and speak out.
Zhenyan Deus is also equally shocked, he stares wide-eyed, looking at the Gate of Wonders that has returned to calm, after a moment of confusion, a somewhat incredulous thought suddenly emerges in his mind.
The rules of the Gate of Wonders are impossible for the Nine Heavens Deus to resist. That is the supreme prime source rules. To forcibly resist the rules formed by the prime source way, then only the same complete way power can.
Way Sovereign!
Without a doubt, there is no second interpretation. Only the Way Sovereign can break the rules of the Gate of Wonders so lightly, and can so casually bring two Eighth Heaven juniors across the Gate of Wonders and enter the Yuan Jing!
"He... he is actually a Way Sovereign?"
Zhenyan Deus is shocked for a moment.
When he was here and met Chen Mu, Chen Mu was definitely not yet a Way Sovereign. In other words, Chen Mu entered the Yuan Jing and gained an encounter in the Yuan Jing, eventually standing out among billions of Deus, and achieved the position of Sovereign.
"So he is one of those newly promoted Way Sovereigns..."
Zhenyan Deus murmurs in his heart.
The promotion of the Way Sovereign, the prime source river descends, breaking through the universe, no matter how far away, as long as it is a Nine Heavens Deus, they can sense some movement to a greater or lesser extent. Previously, there has been more than one sentient being who has achieved the position of Sovereign, and he also knows about it.
However, what he did not expect is that Chen Mu, who was once a newcomer to the Yuan Jing in his eyes, would become one of those promoted Way Sovereigns, becoming one of the most supreme existences in the universe.
At this moment,
Zhenyan Deus is somewhat absent-minded and lost in thought. After a while, he comes back to his senses, closes his eyes slightly, and sends a message to a somewhat distant causal vein.
At this moment, inside the Yuan Jing, in a certain dark wasteland, it seems to be in the midst of an eternal night, and no light can be seen. Even if it is a Nine Heavens Deus, the light emitted by the divine power can only illuminate a few zhang around.
A team is carefully walking here. Suddenly,
A person in the team pauses and reveals a surprised expression.
"What's wrong, Brother Guhong?"
The person beside him notices his change in expression and immediately reveals a vigilant look, quickly looking around.
"No, nothing."
Guhong Deus shakes his head and responds to his companion.
Way Sovereign?
How can that person have already achieved the position of Sovereign after entering the Yuan Jing for such a short time? He Guhong Deus actually managed to pick a Way Sovereign among the vast sea of people, and even tried to invite the other party to join forces with him. This is really...
Guhong Deus' face reveals a complex expression, her mouth twitches slightly, and she ultimately sighs helplessly, forcing the miscellaneous thoughts in her mind to the back, and explains to her companion beside her:
"It's just a distraction from outside the Yuan Jing. Don't mind it, we'll continue."
