Chapter 563 - 371: Ascension, Ninth Dimension

Chapter 563: Chapter 371: Ascension, Ninth Dimension

Wang Yi rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Blackening Scroll, True - Hero of Chaos, Dark Realm Sea of Separation, True - Eye of the Dead, Netherworld - Death Spirit Banner, and the Reversed Dragon Vein! Out of these six items, which one should I choose?"

The six items on the selection list only displayed their names. The system did not provide any descriptive information, making it somewhat difficult for Wang Yi to decide.

He silently pondered, "The Dragon Vein seems to represent luck and destiny. Since my territory has the Nine-Nine Venerable Dragon Vein, it has the protection of providence. So, what exactly is the Reversed Dragon Vein Enhanced +6? Could it be a detrimental object that decreases my territory’s luck?"

Wang Yi leaned toward choosing the [Reversed Dragon Vein] since it had the most Enhancements. He figured he would check its attributes after selecting it, and if it wasn’t useful, he simply wouldn’t use it.

After making his choice, to his surprise, the Reversed Dragon Vein was actually a physical object. Resembling a spinal column, it appeared directly in front of him, and a golden light flashed across it five times.

Name: Reversed Dragon Vein Enhanced +6

Description: To go with the flow is to remain a Mortal, while going against it makes one an immortal. Cultivation is the act of defying the heavens, seizing the fortune of the universe, and gathering the luck of the world. The Reversed Dragon Vein is a special item that binds upon acquisition. Once integrated into the body, it alters the Physique, allowing one to become a Defiant Cultivator.

Detail 1: When the [Reversed Dragon Vein] enters the body, it strips away external forces, allowing the soul to ascend to a higher dimension!

Detail 2: When the [Reversed Dragon Vein] enters the body, it generates its own luck, allowing the physical body to ascend to a higher dimension!

Detail 3: With the [Reversed Dragon Vein] Enhanced +5, the soul and physical body will ascend directly to the Ninth Dimension!

Detail 4: The [Reversed Dragon Vein] has been Enhanced to its absolute limit. The sixth Enhancement is voided, and the Player is compensated with ten billion Star Yuan!

Detail 5: The efficacy level of the [Reversed Dragon Vein] is at the absolute peak. Once it enters the body, it will affect the current Physique. Please explore the specifics on your own!

Wang Yi’s spirits lifted.

"Good heavens, what in the world is this thing? Seizing the fortune of the universe? Gathering the luck of the world?" he wondered.

He didn’t quite understand the intricacies, but he thought, "Will my soul and physical body truly ascend together once this item enters my body? And to the Ninth Dimension no less! Is there actually a Ninth Dimension?"

Wang Yi found it a bit absurd. He carefully read the information for the [Reversed Dragon Vein] again, guessing that this bone-like object in front of him might be an absolute top-tier Treasure.

"Enhancement +5 is already the limit. Wasting an Enhancement actually compensated me with ten billion Star Yuan... So, should I absorb this Reversed Dragon Vein into my body, or not?"

Wang Yi pondered for a full three minutes before finally gritting his teeth. Steeling his resolve, he declared, "Such great fortune is right in front of me; how could I not take it? What does it matter if I have to defy the heavens?"

He reached out and grasped the Reversed Dragon Vein. With a thought, a brilliant light flashed across the vein, and a system notification instantly rang out.

"DING! The Reversed Dragon Vein has entered your body. By defying the heavens, stripping away external forces, and generating your own luck, you will be forsaken by the system!"

"DING! Both your soul and physical body will ascend. Ascension in progress..."

At the peak of Hundred Battle Mountain, deafening thunder suddenly erupted.

The entire mountain began to shake. Countless Battle Banners swayed and collapsed to the ground, while a massive number of Battle Realms instantly shattered. The Players within those Battle Realms were forcibly expelled.

The many Players on the mountain were immediately stunned.

Attracted by the thunder, they looked up at the sky. Soon, a gigantic, luminous vortex appeared above them. It was as massive as a swirling cosmic galaxy, radiating a dazzling, brilliant light.

Under the illumination of this dazzling light, Hundred Battle Mountain and the Players within it rapidly lost all color, as if they had entered a black-and-white world!

"What happened?"

"What is that in the sky? Is a galaxy descending upon us!?"

"I was right in the middle of a skirmish, why was I suddenly sent back!"

"This is bad, why can’t I pull up my personal status panel?"

"It seems like I can’t use my skills anymore!"

"How is this possible?"

"The system... it’s like the system doesn’t exist anymore..."

The Players in Hundred Battle Mountain rapidly went from being surprised to panicking in absolute terror. The power of the system seemed to have been siphoned away, or perhaps it had abandoned them entirely. Their bodies lost all color. Regardless of who they were or how high their level was, at this moment, they all seemed to have been reduced to Mortals.

In a hidden cave at Gale Cliff, a massive boulder slowly transformed into a human figure.

Soon, a man sitting cross-legged appeared in its place.

He was exceptionally handsome with an ethereal presence. He wore his black hair tied up and was dressed in a Daoist Robe, looking very much like a True Monarch who had attained enlightenment.

His body had also lost its color. At the same time, his features rapidly aged, and his dark hair turned snow-white.

The old man’s body shuddered as he slowly opened his eyes. Looking up at the sky, he muttered, "What just happened? Could it be the legendary broad daylight ascension? Ascending to the Fifth Dimension? No, not the Fifth Dimension, a dimension even higher!"

A look of absolute shock appeared on the old man’s face.

His name was Zong Tianhua, a level 600 Player whose class was Morality True Monarch!

He had been hiding within Hundred Battle Mountain for a full thousand years! Initially, it was to escape those hunting him, but later on, he remained for Cultivation. In the unseen spiritual realm, he already had a premonition, knowing that he wasn’t far from his soul’s ascension. Once that happened, he would be able to break past level 600, becoming an absolute titan—even in the Fifth Dimension.

But at this moment, fear sprouted in his heart!

"Who is it? Just who could it be? What have they done?" he thought in terror.

Sweat beaded on Zong Tianhua’s forehead. The battlefield was in the critical period just before ascension. If anything went wrong at this juncture, a thousand years of painstaking Cultivation would be ruined in an instant.

The massive, galaxy-like vortex swirling in the sky continued to expand. Its area of effect soon surpassed Hundred Battle Mountain, radiating out to even vaster territories.

In a hidden underground Cultivation Room in Tange City, within the Grand Demon Capital of the Demon Realm Royal Court, a man shrouded in a black robe slowly raised his head.

Sitting opposite him was another Player dressed in a white robe.
