Chapter 3258: Still Here

Chapter 3258: Still Here

Corpse kings started to appear around the Origin Progenitor. One by one, they charged at him, only to be stopped by a man who could not hold on any longer.

There was a crack of thunder, and the Ancient Lightning Locust, which had been trapped for quite some time, seized the opportunity to escape and flee from the Immemorial Citadel without hesitation. Staying would have been suicide.

The ancestor of the super giants rose up. He looked around the Immemorial Citadel. With a furious roar, his fist smashed downwards, shattering the ground beside the Origin Progenitor and instantly killing a number of corpse kings.

The Origin Progenitor looked up. "Be careful."

Another super giant approached behind the ancestor. It was Corpse God.

The ancient super giant swung a fist, but Corpse God responded with a punch of his own.

The two enormous fists collided, and the entire Immemorial Citadel shook.

"Ancestor, helping the humans is continuing down a path to self-destruction," Corpse God’s voice echoed through space.

The ancestor of the super giants roared in anger, "You are already dead, but I, your ancestor, am not! Who’s the one walking down a path of self-destruction?"

"You stubborn fool! The super giants are already gone, and you will disappear too!" The sequence particles that covered Corpse God's body dispersed completely. He was facing his ancestor, who was an Ortuser, which rendered sequence particles completely ineffective. There was no need for them.

The super giants had their own way of fighting.

The two enormous figures fought within the Immemorial Citadel. Each drop of blood they spilled was like a lake to those watching.

Blood stained the entire Immemorial Citadel red.

In the distance, a figure was entangled with Feng Bo, who stared at the figure in surprise. "Remnant power?"

The figure he was facing was the Rune Progenitor, though not the Progenitor’s actual body. The man had not entered Burial Garden, as he had died long ago. Only remnants of his power remained.

This was why the Fifth Mainland had once been able to harness the Rune Progenitor’s remnant power to alter the universe. That incident had caused the Sixth Mainland to suffer heavy losses.

The Progenitor’s power that had remained Burial Garden was the last portion of the Rune Progenitor’s remnant strength.

"Dead people shouldn’t reappear." Feng Bo's eyes gleamed. It was unclear if he was referring to the Rune Progenitor or himself.

One by one, experts from the Immemorial Citadel fell, and Burial Garden’s wandering corpses were destroyed.

People like Elder Tong, Gu Guai, Xiao, as well as an expert from the Lu family who had once enjoyed building models of the Champions' Stage, only to stomp on them afterwards, all disappeared, one after another.

Rivers formed from the Yellow Springs and divine energy intertwined in space, colliding like two massive dragons.

Above the black Mother Tree, True God calmly watched the battle as Blackless God approached.

"Master, they won’t make it here," Blackless God said respectfully.

True God sighed. "The third Divine Commandment ends with the final battle. The people from the Heavens Sect are no longer qualified to participate. The megaverse will soon restart, and you will also be able to break through to the Origin realm in the new megaverse."

Blackless God’s eyes blazed at True God’s words. He was not from the megaverse, nor was he a corpse king. He was from another universe.

His goal was simple: he wanted to reach the Origin realm.

In Blackless God’s home megaverse, both the megaverse itself and he were trapped by a certain power, which had made it impossible for him to break through and become an Ortuser.

Restarting a megaverse was his only way to progress further, and that was why he had joined Aeternus.

And now, the moment had finally arrived.

Blackless God excitedly said, "The Immemorial Citadel is about to be destroyed. These people can’t last much longer. Let me send them off."

With that, he moved forward, leaving the black Mother Tree as he charged at the Immemorial Citadel. Black lines covered the sky.

Anyone with the strength of the Three Pillars and Six Skies would be terrifying. The Immemorial Citadel was already on the verge of total destruction, so when Blackless God joined the battle, even more experts from the Immemorial Citadel and Burial Garden died or were injured.

More and more eyes turned to look underground.

The Ossis Ark moved through space again, once more aiming to crash into the Immemorial Citadel. It had been pushed away by Progenitor Chen, but there was no one who could stop it this time. The Immemorial Citadel had run out of powerful defenders.

True God clasped his hands behind his back. “It’s over. Tai Hong, watched the Immemorial Citadel’s final moments, as well as Tai Chu’s end.”

The Great Sovereign looked past True God. Sadness filled the woman’s eyes as she saw the broken Immemorial Citadel. The entire city was stained with blood.

Despite humanity’s perseverance, they had ultimately lost to Aeternus.

No matter how brilliant the Heavens Sect grew, no matter how much pressure Lu Yin put on Aeternus, one fact had always been overlooked; the Aeternals did not rely solely on overwhelming power, but also on cunning.

Aeternus had defeated the ancient Heavens Sect, despite its incredible strength. Despite having clearly fallen to a disadvantage, they had managed to reverse the tides. This was Aeternus’s true power.

The Immemorial Citadel, Tai Chu, the Heavens Sect, humanity as a whole, it was all about to come to an end.

The Ossis Ark barreled towards the Immemorial Citadel. As it moved forward, one human expert after another tried to stop the boat, only to be prevented from doing so.

Progenitor Ku, Progenitor Chen, Chu Yi, and even Mister Mu were all unable to stop the Ossis Ark at this moment.

The Ossis Ark would be the final blow that would crush the Immemorial Citadel.

Flames swept up from beneath the Immemorial Citadel. Progenitor Chen struck out with a palm, but he was briefly restrained by Di Qiong’s Martial Scriptures. Feng Bo surrounded the Progenitor with his Greater Sancti of the Nine Heavens, but Progenitor Chen’s palm shattered the tower, to Feng Bo’s utter shock. This was the same battle technique that had instantly destroyed Progenitor Xi.

Still, it was only a single attack, and how many of the flames were still burning beneath the Immemorial Citadel?

Progenitor Ku charged at the Ossis Ark, but the butterfly passed by him in a flash of light, throwing the man into a dreamlike illusion.

The four captains of the Dead Regiment were all held back by powerful corpse kings from the Ossis Ark.

Even Tombkeeper himself appeared, and he charged at the Ossis Ark with all his might, only to be blocked by Undying God.

Mister Mu looked at the Ossis Ark. Once again, a feeling of powerlessness welled up within him. Once, his original megaverse had faced the same situation, and they had eventually lost to their nemesis. The same scene was repeating in this megaverse.

Humans might be the most intelligent creatures in the megaverse, but they were also the most targeted.

Yuan Qi let out a belly laugh. “Old Mu, your perseverance is a joke! I told you, it’s useless! Hahahaha!”

The tolling of a bell rang out, like a final farewell to the Immemorial Citadel.

The place that had housed countless sequence strings in order to protect the megaverse for countless years had finally reached its end.

The Ossis Ark slammed into the Immemorial Citadel.

At this moment, the fighting stopped everywhere as everyone watched the impact. They were witnessing the final destruction of the Immemorial Citadel.

Suddenly, something enormous emerged from the darkness. It slammed into the Ossis Ark and knocked it off course, deflecting it from the Immemorial Citadel.

True God's eyes flickered. "What is that?"

Mister Mu let out a sigh of relief. "It's finally here."

Beneath the Immemorial Citadel, a smile touched the Origin Progenitor's eyes.

All eyes turned towards the dark object.

A spacecraft had emerged from the Hollow. It slowly entered outer space so that everyone could see it clearly.

Carved into the hull was the name Boundless.

Blackless God's eyes narrowed. "Boundless? Why is that ship here?"

Boundless was not unknown to the Aeternals. If Burial Garden was a relic from the first Divine Commandment that had been left behind for humanity’s future, then Boundless was the legacy left behind from the second Divine Commandment. It had been left behind by the Daosource Sect era.
