Chapter 1489 The Greatest Ambition

Chapter 1489 The Greatest Ambition

In the darkness, the Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison continued to erode and whittle away at each other like two giant wheels grinding against the other.

As time passed, some changes gradually appeared in the tug-of-war between the two titans.

A strange phenomenon was occuring at a certain spot between the two powers. Any power from the Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison would suddenly vanish whenever it passed through that location.

Although it was initially negligible, a sliver of mysterious light suddenly appeared in the darkness after some time passed. It shined like a single, lone star in the deep darkness of space, and though its light was not strong, it was very conspicuous.

If one’s gaze could penetrate into the mysterious light, one would see a figure silently seated within. An ancient dragon roar spread from his body, along with a peculiar pressure.

The Sacred God’s will and God Annihilation Curse Poison’s power continuously streamed into his head, before being refined by the dragon cauldron in his body, turning the power into his own.

The light grew stronger and began to encroach on the Sacred God’s will and God Annihilation Curse Poison’s territory.

The spreading pressure from the figure in the light also climbed at an astonishing speed...

The Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison were initially unconcerned about the ant somewhere between them, focused instead on each other.

As time passed, however, the Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison began to realize that something was wrong. They suddenly discovered that the strange and weak ant-like existence had suddenly gained power that could not be underestimated.

Moreover, his power had originated from them!

In other words, they were slowly weakening as the strange entity grew stronger.

The God Annihilation Curse Poison was not sentient and only acted on instinct, while the Sacred God’s will had been stuck here in this darkness for countless years in a muddled, formless state. In addition, this zone was currently sealed and though the Sacred God had already awakened, he had yet to sense and retrieve the fragment of his will in this location. As such, both the God Annihilation Curse Poison or the Sacred God’s will were merely following their instincts, creating a chance that Zhou Yuan had clearly taken advantage of.

While they were busy with each other, he had secretly stolen their power to strengthen himself. By the time the two terrors realized what he was doing, he was already strong enough to face them.

Hence, the God Annihilation Curse Poison and the Sacred God’s will stopped attacking as recklessly as before when they discovered the strange thief that had suddenly become a threat. He was no longer an ant they could easily squash.

With the entry of a third party, what was originally two opposing forces now became a triangular standoff between three parties.

However, Zhou Yuan’s power stealing did not stop. Through the power of the Ancestral Dragon Scripture and the divine matter, he continued to drain the Sacred God’s will and God Annihilation Curse Poison’s power.

He could feel his power rising at an unimaginable speed. If he could leave now, his strength would definitely be at least equal to the triple lotus stage.

However, Zhou Yuan did not choose to do so, because although he was stronger, it was still far from enough to fulfil his ambitions.

“I need to be stronger...far stronger...strong enough to reach that level!” A firm voice rang out in Cangxuan Heaven’s core. In the next instant, a terrifying suction force erupted from Zhou Yuan’s body. The Sacred God’s will and God Annihilation Curse Poison’s power turned into giant ten-thousand-mile-wide funnels that connected to Zhou Yuan’s head.

Two different powers flooded towards him and were rapidly swallowed into his body. A scary and ruthless light shined in his eyes as he frantically circulated the Ancestral Dragon Scripture to refine the power.

“I’ll devour both of you so I’ll be able to take that final step!”

Upon sensing his intentions, the God Annihilation Curse Poison and the Sacred God’s will began to violently resist. They never expected that this strange entity that had previously been an ant in their eyes, would now become delusional enough to devour them. Moreover, he was clearly intent on consuming not one but both of them together!

Frightening power erupted in the darkness. However, neither the God Annihilation Curse Poison or the Sacred God’s were able to escape the suction force from Zhou Yuan no matter how hard they resisted. Moreover, they realized that the Ancestral Dragon Scripture just so happened to have a restraining effect on them.

As such, the two terrors gradually shrank as time passed, while the light from Zhou Yuan’s body grew increasingly resplendent.

The light slowly grew brighter, even beginning to chase away the darkness in Cangxuan Heaven’s core.

Indescribably terrifying power filled Zhou Yuan’s limbs, power that had already long surpassed his common sense.

He should have reached the pinnacle of the triple lotus stage.

However, this was also where a problem began to appear. When his power reached this level, Zhou Yuan discovered that his body was starting to reach its limit.

It was as if such power was beyond the capacity of his body.

There was only one outcome if he continued to brainlessly absorb more power - his body and Spirit would implode.

“Why is it like this...

“Is this power the limit?

“Why can’t I take that final step and touch that legendary realm?!”

The sudden turn of events made Zhou Yuan angry and confused. He had not risked his life for a mere triple lotus stage!

However, Zhou Yuan was now stuck between a rock and a hard place. The Sacred God’s will and God Annihilation Curse Poison’s power continued to be drawn into him, leaving him no way out. The moment he tried to back down, he would instantly be pounced on by the combined fury of the Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison.

He needed to advance bravely, absorb all of the two terrors’ power and turn it into his own!

However, his body was reaching its limit and continuing to absorb their power would only make him spiral towards destruction!

“Why...why?!”

Zhou Yuan could not help but feel a rush of irritation and frustration. However, he quickly suppressed these emotions, because what he needed now was a solution, not useless anger.

Zhou Yuan calmly sorted out his emotions before starting to reevaluate the situation from the beginning. At a certain moment, his brows slowly knitted together.

“Why do I feel as if something is lacking...

“Is this missing piece stopping me from ascending to the realm of the gods?

“What is it?”

Zhou Yuan continuously voiced his thoughts, countless ideas rising in his head before being discarded in the blink of an eye.

He had a feeling that this missing piece would allow his body to bear an even greater power, enabling him to continue pushing towards the god stage.

The missing piece was a necessary requirement to step into the god stage, and could not be replaced by any ordinary object.

The power accumulating in Zhou Yuan’s body grew increasingly terrifying. His skin began to split open, and his flesh gradually started to boil as if it was about to melt away.

It was a clear sign that he was about to reach his limit.

In fact, Zhou Yuan even began to feel death’s beckoning.

All of a sudden, Zhou Yuan heard his heart beat loudly as he cast his attention towards the divine matter in his body.

He was silent for a few seconds, before a determined look flitted across his eyes.

Since it was going to be death either way, let’s risk it all again!

Roar!

Zhou Yuan abruptly raised his head and unleashed a thunderous roar that rippled within the sealed core of Cangxuan Heaven. Next, he began to circulate the Ancestral Dragon Scripture at full force, releasing the most terrifying suction force possible.

Rumble!

The Sacred God’s will and the God Annihilation Curse Poison shuddered, before a vast and terrifying power began to pour out like a flood and rush into his body.

Crack!

Cracks rapidly spread across his body, making him look extremely frightening.

However, Zhou Yuan ignored it. His expression gradually turned calm as he felt the endless power charging into his body and he slowly shut his eyes.

He spread his arms outwards, allowing his body to drop into the darkness.

“I hope...that this will work…”
