"Fellow, let's attack together!"
On the battlefield, Hong Meng looked at Chu Bei. As soon as he finished speaking, his entire body transformed into a ray of light that enveloped a myriad of galaxies, compressed them to the limit, and blasted towards Zi Feng.
At the same time, Chu Bei's figure moved as well. He raised his hand and smashed down in a simple and direct manner.
Unlike Hong Meng, Chu Bei's goal was very clear. He wanted to seize the white stone behind Zi Feng.
"What a pair of madmen!"
The corners of Zi Feng's mouth twitched as he cursed angrily.
The reason he was guarding the 99th step was none other than because he'd accepted a bribe and was entrusted with it. In another 10,000 years, the time he agreed upon would arrive, and it would be time for him to leave.
A billion years ago, he was shocked when he fought Hong Meng for the first time! No matter what, he never imagined that there would actually be an existence that was on par with him in this chaotic space!
Fortunately, Hong Meng's strength was on par with his. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for him to be defeated right after he'd been entrusted with guarding the 99th step.
But who would have expected that after he'd blocked Hong Meng time and time again throughout these countless years, and just as he was about to succeed and retreat, Hong Meng actually found a helper from somewhere, and this helper's strength was faintly above his own!
Zi Feng sighed faintly. When Hong Meng and Chu Bei became completely serious, he knew that there was no way out for him.
Without hesitation, he executed his strongest ability as well. Endless runes condensed into ribbons that shot towards Hong Meng and Chu Bei.
However, what caused Zi Feng's soul to tremble was that the attack he'd condensed with his own essence hadn't even touched Chu Bei and Hong Meng before it was swallowed by the Iron Lump.
Before Zi Feng could react from his shock, Hong Meng and Chu Bei's attacks had already arrived before him.
"Go easy on me …"
When he met Hong Meng and Chu Bei's mocking gazes, a chill arose in Zi Feng's heart. But before he could finish speaking, a series of violent attacks blasted his face.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Chu Bei and Hong Meng's strongest attacks landed on Zi Feng's body.
In an instant, Zi Feng's entire body was wrapped in brilliant light, and within the light, one could vaguely see billions of star fields that had been compressed to the limit.
"Ahhh!"
"I told you to be gentle!"
"You two lunatics!"
…
Amidst the light, one could vaguely see Zi Feng's body shattering and exploding time and time again, reassembling and healing time and time again.
That shrill scream drifted out, filled with anger and unwillingness.
"How terrifying!"
On the banks of the River of Time, the powerhouses from a different space-time watched the scene in the ball of light in a daze and couldn't help but sigh.
"Damn it! Don't touch my Source Heaven Stone! It took me a million years to find this one! "
Suddenly, Zi Feng's flustered and exasperated voice came from within the light, and one could hear the pain in his voice.
[Host has obtained Origin Energy. Mission completed.]
Just as Chu Bei grabbed the white stone behind Zi Feng, the system's voice rang out in his mind.
In an instant, the white stone directly appeared in his Knowledge Sea, releasing a white light that instantly filled his entire Knowledge Sea.
The system interface changed, and a new page appeared.
This page presented a cone-shaped tool, and next to the tool was a line of eye-catching words. [Origin Energy of Heaven]
Behind the words was a lonely number "1", and it just so happened that the tool contained only one droplet.
Although this droplet was pitifully small, there seemed to be a layer of film around it that was condensed and unmelted. It was releasing a dazzling light, as if it had an unusual connection with the white stone.
The system didn't explain too much, so Chu Bei naturally didn't care too much about it.
"Hong Meng, stop it right now! I'll let you go, okay? "
It was also at this moment that Zi Feng's compassionate voice came from within the bright light.
Bang!
Accompanied by an explosion, Hong Meng withdrew his hand and smiled at Zi Feng, who had exploded and healed again. "Old friend, wouldn't it have been better if you had been so sensible earlier?"
Zi Feng glared at Hong Meng and snorted coldly before looking at Chu Bei. "Return the Origin Heaven Stone to me!"
"That stone has already been refined by me," Chu Bei said calmly with his hands behind his back.
"Impossible! That's the Origin Heaven Stone! Even you and I can't directly refine the energy within it. At most, we can only borrow it! "
Zi Feng didn't believe Chu Bei's words at all, but just as he sent a wisp of Divine Sense to scan Chu Bei, his expression suddenly changed. "How … how is this possible! It's really gone! "
"Old friend, isn't it just a broken stone? If it's gone, then it's gone. Besides, didn't you refine it? What's there to feel bad about? At most, you can just find another one. "Hong Meng patted Zi Feng's shoulder in a good mood.
"What do you know! When you jump out of this world, you'll know what that stone represents! "Zi Feng cursed at Hong Meng.
Zi Feng glared fiercely at Chu Bei. "So what if you've passed my test? If you want to push open that door, you have to cross the last step! That guy is stronger than me by more than one or two points! Even if the two of you attack together, you won't be a match for him! "
Hearing this, Hong Meng frowned, and the smile on his face became serious again. On the other hand, Chu Bei seemed incomparably calm, as if he didn't care about Zi Feng's words at all.
Rumble!
With a loud bang, the eighth-stage Quasi-immortal Emperor Zi Feng also disappeared in this vast starry sky.
"Is this group of little guys so curious? They still refuse to leave. "
Hong Meng glanced at the experts from the other space-time on both sides of the long river of time and murmured, not paying much attention to them.
"Only the last step left!"
Looking at the last step in front of him and the rippling door that was only a meter away from him, Hong Meng took a deep breath and inexplicably felt a little nervous.
For hundreds of millions of years, every time he came here, he was stopped by Zi Feng. Today, he finally passed the 99th step!
"Fellow cultivator, please!"
Hong Meng gestured to Chu Bei.
Meeting Hong Meng's gaze, Chu Bei nodded in response.
Rumble!
When Hong Meng and Chu Bei stepped on the last step, the entire stairway trembled violently and shook violently.
Then, the heavenly river flowing below began to riot. At the bottom of the river, violent beasts began to rush out, carrying an incomparably terrifying aura and making strange hissing sounds.
Not only the heavenly river, but the golden light on both sides also began to converge toward the middle, and countless golden creatures walked out faintly.
Looking at this scene, Hong Meng was stunned. He never expected that there would be living creatures in the heavenly river and the golden light on both sides.
Rumble!
The roaring heavenly river and the bright golden light began to overlap and intertwine.
Finally, a brand-new world took shape.
There were no continents, no stars, no galaxies, and no starfields. There was only a vast expanse of whiteness.
Looking over, one could see chaos beasts roaming in this white world from time to time.
These beasts' auras were abnormally strong, far from what the chaos beasts on the previous steps could compare to. Even the weakest among them had the strength of a peak true immortal.
"I didn't expect someone to reach this step."
Suddenly, a golden path floated up and down, and a figure walked out from the end.
Looking in the direction of the voice, it was a plainly dressed old man with white hair and beard. He strolled along the golden path, and as his calm voice fell, he'd already reached the end of the path.
"There are quite a lot of people here."
With a smile, the white-haired old man swept his gaze over the experts from the other space-time along the river of time, then finally landed on Hong Meng and Chu Bei.
"My power is being … being suppressed!"
"H-how is this possible?!"
"Who is he?!"
The instant they met the white-haired old man's gaze, the experts from the other space-time along the river of time suddenly trembled.
An indescribable, formless power seemed to shoot out from the white-haired old man's eyes, instantly piercing through the space-time barrier they were in, and then seeping into their bodies.
Under this power, the boundless power in their bodies was suppressed, and they couldn't use it at all. It was as if they'd become ordinary people in an instant.
Some of the early-stage quasi-immortal emperors on both sides of the river of time all had expressions of disbelief. They didn't dare to believe that at their level, there was actually someone who could suppress them with just a gaze!
"Could it be that … he's already stepped into the true immortal emperor realm?!" A quasi-immortal emperor exclaimed.
"Even if he hasn't, I'm afraid he's not far from it." Another quasi-immortal emperor took a deep breath.
"Hong Meng, I've already told you, even if you can get past me, you won't be able to open that door."
At this moment, another figure appeared on the golden path. It was Zi Feng who'd been guarding the ninety-ninth step earlier.
"What? You still want to fight? "Seeing Zi Feng's arrival, Hong Meng frowned.
"No, no, no, of course not! I've already been defeated, so how could I have the nerve to continue blocking you? "
Zi Feng hurriedly spoke, and then retreated to the side, and said with a smile, "I'm just watching a show this time. With Elder Bai's strength, it's more than enough to deal with the two of you."
"At least you still have some conscience."
Hong Meng glanced at Zi Feng, and then sized up the smiling white-haired old man, and then turned to look at Chu Bei who was beside him, and said, "Fellow Daoist, the trouble seems to be a bit big."
Chu Bei didn't reply, and only smiled.
"Since the day you were born, I've already noticed you. It's also because of your existence that I've personally guarded this large region. "
The white-haired old man stroked his beard, and his gaze fell on Hong Meng, "Now it seems that this decision was correct."
"This large region? Could it be that there are many similar spaces? "
Hong Meng frowned, and stared at the white-haired old man, "Also, who exactly are you?! Why are you guarding this place? What's behind that door?! "
"I am the guardian of this large region. You can call me Elder Bai. As for guarding this place, it's because the outside world is already chaotic enough, and I don't want you to add to the chaos. "The white-haired old man faintly sighed.
"The outside world? You mean behind that door, right? "Hong Meng asked tentatively.
"With me guarding this place, you can't get out. Give up on that thought."
The white-haired old man didn't directly answer Hong Meng's question. As he spoke, he raised his right hand.
The next moment, the dazzling golden light of this new world surged, and the powerful Chaos Ancient Beasts hidden in the void howled in fear and immediately fled.
Buzz! Buzz!
A giant hand took shape, sweeping through the void, and its target was Hong Meng.
Layers of golden ripples surged like waves, spreading into the distance.
At this moment, the experts from the alternate space-time along the long river of time suddenly felt a bone-piercing chill, and an instinctive fear that they hadn't felt for a long time arose spontaneously.
