[Host has obtained the Ancient Desolate Tower and the Divine Striking Stone. Mission completed.]
[Host is rewarded with the right to use a Level 19 item once.]
The system's voice rang out. Chu Bei looked at the Stone Emperor, "I have completed my task here and am preparing to leave. Do you want to come with me?"
"Senior, did you come here for this pagoda from the very beginning?" the Stone Emperor asked in a probing manner.
"You can say so." Chu Bei nodded and didn't hide anything.
"Senior, you and Hao 'er should return first. The great calamity is coming. I still want to look for opportunities. "
The Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and the others looked at each other and bowed to Chu Bei, making the same decision.
"Alright."
Chu Bei nodded and waved his sleeves, bringing Shi Hao with him as they disappeared into the void.
After Chu Bei left, the group of Venerables started to search for treasured artifacts in the ruins again.
"If the great calamity is coming and you are unable to resist it, you can come to the Martial Imperial Manor. I will ensure your safety."
Just as the group of Venerables was chasing after the treasured artifacts, an emotionless voice rang out in the sky.
Hearing this voice, the Fire Emperor, Nine-Headed Lion, Crack Demonic Butterfly, Qiong Qi, Heaven Swallowing Sparrow, Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and the rest of the Venerables were stunned. When they came to their senses, their faces were filled with excitement.
"Did you hear that? It's that lord's voice! "
"Could it be that he really has a way to avoid the great calamity?"
"Since he dared to say that, he must be able to do it!"
"Haha, we're saved. We don't have to die!"
"No wonder he could live for tens of thousands of years. He really has the ability to avoid the great calamity!"
"Senior said that the great calamity is just a massacre by the giants of the Higher Realm. When senior said that he would ensure our safety, he didn't mean that he would help us avoid the calamity. He said that he would help us fight against the giants of the Higher Realm! "
…
After getting over their excitement, the group of Venerables started to search for treasured artifacts again. However, they were much more relaxed now.
"What did that mysterious person mean when he left?"
"I think he was talking to those Venerables!"
"Could it be that those Venerables are going to face a great calamity? That can't be, they are the overlords of the Higher Realm! "
…
Not far away, countless cultivators were discussing intensely.
After leaving the Hundred Shattering Mountains, Chu Bei continued to focus on teaching Shi Hao cultivation. After all, the system didn't issue any new missions.
Shi Hao's perception was extremely high, and with the support of the heavenly materials Chu Bei obtained from the system, he successfully opened up eight heavenly passages in just seven days.
Such peaceful days continued until the tenth day.
Rumble!
A loud noise that shook the entire Waste Region came from the distant sky.
At this moment, no matter which corner of the Wasteland they were in, they could clearly feel their bodies trembling. It was like a temporary earthquake.
When they raised their heads to look, the pupils of everyone in the Wasteland Region instantly constricted, and an indescribable chill surged in their hearts.
In the entire Desolate Region, the originally clear sky was suddenly filled with dark clouds. It was as if the day had turned into dusk.
Within the dark clouds, nine-colored lightning rumbled. Its aura was terrifying, and it was actually accompanied by chaotic energy. It covered the heavens, and the scene was vast and intimidating. The entire sky seemed like it was about to shatter.
"What's going on? Everything was fine, so why did the world suddenly change?! "
"What happened? Could it be that the end of the world is coming?! "
"This type of strange phenomenon has never been recorded even in ancient texts!"
"My heavens, could it be that some kind of incomparable supreme treasure is descending from the heavens?"
"This is a strange phenomenon that engulfs the entire region!"
…
The instant the heavens changed, in the Wasteland Region, not only the cultivators, all of the ordinary people raised their heads at the same time. Their faces were full of shock as they looked at the nine-colored lightning above their heads.
"Senior, you've finally come! Look at the sky, the great calamity has arrived! "
Within Stone Country Imperial Palace, Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and Thousand Joy supreme expert revealed expressions of fear as they looked at the sky.
"There is no need to panic."
Chu Bei indifferently swept his eyes over the heavens. His expression didn't change in the slightest. He sat upright on a chair and leisurely sipped on his tea.
Seeing this, Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and Thousand Joy supreme expert looked at each other and stood on the side.
Now that the great calamity had arrived, they truly couldn't remain as calm as Chu Bei. After all, the records of the great calamity in their family records were too terrifying.
No one above the Supremacy level would be spared!
They knew that Chu Bei was very powerful, but because this was the first time they were facing an unknown great calamity, their hearts were still pounding with an inexplicable fear.
"Stone Emperor, activate the ancestral altar and see what the other places in the region are like!" Thousand Joy supreme expert said.
In the eight regions, there were countless ancient and mysterious altars. Once these altars were activated by energy, they could be connected to each other.
Although these mysterious altars couldn't be used as teleportation arrays, they could be used to monitor teleportation images.
As these ancient altars consumed a lot of energy, no one would normally activate these altars. However, due to the impending great calamity, these ancient altars had been activated by various major forces one after another half a month ago.
Rumble!
As the Stone Emperor activated the altar, the void above the altar rumbled. Gradually, several palm-sized images appeared.
Suddenly, one of the images enlarged rapidly. The size of these images was determined by the intensity of the violent energy of heaven and earth in that area.
In the first large image.
The sky in the image suddenly shattered like glass, and an enormous claw reached out from underground. It was surrounded by hazy primal chaos, and it immediately scattered the roiling dark clouds above.
This enormous claw was thick and simple, as if it had been buried underground for countless years. There was still a mud shell between the claw that hadn't been removed, and it carried the vicissitudes of time.
"Master, those are the mountain peaks outside the village! Grandpa Village Chief and the others will be fine, right? "
Shi Hao recognized the mountain peaks in the image. He pointed at the continuous mountain peaks behind the enormous claw and cried out in alarm.
"Don't worry, with the Lightning Strike Wood, there won't be any problems." Chu Bei smiled and pinched Shi Hao's cheeks.
"Senior, what exactly is hidden underground?! It has already far surpassed the Supreme Expert Realm, right?! "
Stone Emperor and Ghost King stared at the image with faces full of shock. That claw was too large. It was a greenish-gray color, and it covered the heavens. With just a shake, the entire mountain range in the surroundings shook. The great earth ruptured, and smoke and dust rushed into the sky.
In the image, the originally clamorous noise immediately became quiet the instant the enormous claw reached out. All of the birds and beasts, and even the ants and bugs, were trembling. It was as if an ancient savage beast had awakened. An indescribable pressure engulfed the boundless mountain forest.
"An old tortoise, but on its back is the Supreme Divine Treasury." Chu Bei lowered the teacup in his hands and shot a glance at the enormous claw. His words were indistinct.
"Supreme Divine Treasury? Then has it also experienced several great calamities?! "Stone Emperor continued to ask.
Chu Bei nodded. "Every time there is a great calamity, there will always be giants from the higher realms looking for it. However, because of how powerful it is, even if these giants from the higher realms find it, they will still return empty-handed."
Just as Chu Bei's voice fell, ripples appeared in the sky above the enormous claw. An incomparably enormous foot stepped down from the ripples, covering the heavens. Nine-colored lightning rumbled under its feet, accompanied by roiling mists. Its divine might was matchless.
"Hurry and look, there really is a giant that came down!"
"He's coming for the Supreme Divine Treasury!"
Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and the other Venerables looked at the foot that had suddenly appeared in the image, and the shock in their eyes became even more pronounced.
In the image, the enormous greenish-gray claw collided with the foot that was descending from the heavens. The region instantly exploded, and the mountain range that was brimming with vitality was transformed into a stretch of ruins.
Further away, one could faintly see a branch dancing between heaven and earth. Strange symbols flickered on it.
Under the protection of the willow branch, a small village was actually completely preserved. Even such a frightening shockwave couldn't harm it in the slightest.
"What's up with that willow branch?!"
"It can actually protect that village from such a powerful explosion!"
Just as Stone Emperor and the others fixed their gazes on that willow branch, an earth-shattering boom rang out.
In the next instant, the densely packed images above the altar shuddered at the same time.
"It's here!"
Stone Emperor, Ghost King, and the others were all shocked.
They saw divine light fill the sky at the same time, and a huge spatial crack spread out in the sky. Countless doors could faintly be seen taking shape and being constructed!
Kacha, kacha, kacha!
However, just as these doors were about to completely take shape, a strange ripple spread out, and then they suddenly exploded.
In the images, these exploded doors were as gorgeous as fireworks, and they were as breathtaking as the morning sun. They were extremely beautiful, and there was a faint rain of blood and scales that were being annihilated in the void, heading toward destruction.
"Huh? These big shots have all failed?! Could it be that they can't come down?! "
"That rain of blood … Could it be that the big shots of the Higher Realm have been injured?"
"In that case, aren't they going to retreat?!"
Looking at the shattered doors in the images, Stone Emperor, Venerable Thousand Joy, and Ghost King exchanged a glance, and there was a hint of joy between their brows.
"The eight realms of the Lower Realm also have their own great dao restrictions. Although these so-called big shots of the Higher Realm aren't weak, they can't come down so easily. However, since they've already made their preparations, they'll definitely come down in person regardless of the consequences. "
Chu Bei's eyes swept over the Stone Emperor and the others, and his words instantly poured a bucket of cold water over the Venerables, extinguishing their fantasies and expectations.
Sure enough, the countless images trembled again, and the shattered doors healed again. Moreover, the radiance in the surroundings became even more brilliant.
"What's going on with that door?!"
"Could it be that there really are Celestials in this world? They all live in the sky! "
"Why aren't there any records of this in the ancient books?!"
"Could it be that there are Celestials coming to our Wasteland through that door?!"
…
Everyone in the Wasteland Realm raised their heads, and they stared unblinkingly at the doors that were about to take shape in the distant sky. Their mouths were wide open, and there was an expression of disbelief on their faces.
Boom!
Finally, a door was the first to take shape in the sky.
The sky collapsed, and a living being in Daoist robes walked out from the door. It was incredibly huge, and its entire body was radiating brilliant light that illuminated the nine heavens and 10 lands.
Because the light around the living being in Daoist robes was too bright and resplendent, it was impossible to see his true appearance clearly. One could only tell that he was a Daoist. His aura surged like a tsunami, and it was also like a surging river of stars, vast and mighty between heaven and earth.
"Senior, he's descended into our Wasteland Realm!"
The Stone Emperor snapped out of his shock, and he pointed at the incomparably massive Daoist magical image in the sky. His eyes landed on Chu Bei's body, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
Thousand Joy supreme expert and the Ghost King's expressions also changed. The Daoist that walked out from the door was just too big, so big that everyone in the Wasteland Realm could see him if they raised their eyes.
"Master, someone else is coming down!"
Shi Hao's eyes widened, and his eyes shone brightly. His small fair hand pointed at the sky as he cried out in alarm.
Lightning hacked about from the second door, and the sky shattered. A golden figure walked out from within. It similarly towered into the clouds, towering between heaven and earth, as if it had existed since ancient times.
This was an old woman. She wore a golden robe, and on her head was a precious crown. When her eyes opened and closed, they were like two great suns that flickered about. A terrifying aura overflowed into the heavens, and divine light curled about the surface of her body.
