Chapter 453: The New Spaceship Begins Its Journey

Before the wormhole, ruptured metal debris was everywhere. There were fragments of battleships and wreckage of transcendent flying boats. It was evident that a major battle had taken place here. There was a gigantic dragon that was originally about two hundred meters long, but it was now reduced to several dozen pieces. It was dismembered and had its blood scattered everywhere.

This was not the wreckage of a flying dragon seen in the outer space of the Secret Land. This was a genuine dragon, a species belonging to Western mythological legends. It had actually appeared in the mortal world and tragically died here. There were also many humanoid creatures and other species never seen before. They all turned into cold corpses, with hardly any intact ones.

"Technology, mythology, and warships combining the two. Everything is here. There has been a battle," Qing Mu spoke solemnly. He immediately activated the shields for defense.

Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin were also witnessing such a scene for the first time. The mythological era was coming to an end, yet such clashes were still occurring. The unknown starry seas were truly in chaos. Wang Xuan confirmed that Old Fox was not wrong after all. There was indeed a war in the depths of the universe, with far-reaching consequences. Some wormhole routes might have been interrupted because of it.

"I've never seen a dragon before!" Wu Yin exclaimed. Although she had lived in the secret land for a long time, she was still amazed by such mythical creatures.

Wang Xuan remarked, "This dragon is very powerful. One can infer that its spirit level rivals that of someone at the second level of the Wanderer level just from the remnants of its scattered spiritual fragments,."

This was remarkable. In the current environment, even figures like Zhang Daoling and the Hades Blood Patriarch were suppressed to the third level of Wanderer level in their earthly incarnations.

"How about getting some dragon meat...... for a taste?" Transcendent Ma suggested. Opportunities like this were rare. He had never eaten dragon meat in his life!

In fact, everyone was somewhat moved. This kind of thing was rare to come by. It was said that bathing the body in dragon blood had its intricacies, such as making it impervious to weapons, but they suspected it applied only to ordinary people.

"Huh? Danger!" In an instant, Wang Xuan's expression changed. He felt pain all over his body, as if his spirit was about to be torn apart. It was the effect of heightened spiritual perception and the combination of the eleventh realm, giving him an early warning that the spaceship was about to disintegrate.

This was not a prophecy but his heightened spiritual perception that had sensed the danger in the dark realm of the wormhole. There, a silver spaceship slowly appeared and was preparing to open fire. With a swoosh, he projected his spirit outwards at a speed that was beyond limits. He wore the five-piece set, using the furnace lid as the primary weapon, and rushed towards the front of the wormhole.

He didn't evade but chose to face it head-on because if he did, their medium-sized warship would be doomed to destruction. Fortunately, he reacted swiftly, and Qing Mu was not slow either. The warship left an afterimage and changed its position. At the same time, a fierce beam of energy swept over. With a loud bang, the terrifying darkness of space was filled with the might of technological weapons and the boiling of trans material!

Qing Mu noticed that the main screen lost signal due to intense interference from the transcendent energy. The spaceship ceased to function and various sophisticated components were severely damaged. This was somewhat terrifying because being stranded in space meant certain death. There was no way out. And at this moment, the warship shook violently. After the shields were shattered, the hull began to crack, with a section breaking off first.

"Oh my, are we encountering extraterrestrial demons? Are we fighting in the Nine Heavens?" Little Fox was flustered in the wind. It was her first time going far from home. She was full of anticipation, only to encounter an attack on the way and was facing imminent danger.

"Get into the emergency escape pods, quickly!" Zhao Qinghan urged, taking Little Fox and Transcendent Ma with her, each to a separate pod. Qing Mu was responsible for protecting Wang Xuan's physical body. The spaceship was likely to disintegrate.

Boom! 

In the region near the wormhole, there were intense energy shockwaves. It was somewhat terrifying. The spaceship further disintegrated, but this time it should only be residual effects.

"Oh no, the escape pods have been eroded by dense trans material. The situation is tricky!" said Zhao Qinghan.

Now, they couldn't even escape if they wanted to. The spaceship suffered severe damage inside and out. At this moment, they deeply felt the insignificance of individual strength. In the depths of the universe, even transcendents were nothing special. Before the physical body or the spirit could traverse the stars, no matter how high your magic or how much scripture you practiced, it would be useless. One wouldn't survive for long once they were lost in the universe.

"Wang Xuan!" shouted Zhao Qinghan. They were very worried. Wang Xuan's spirit flew out. He was facing unknown dangers alone, and it was making their hearts leap into their throats.

Darkness turned into light. In the void in front of the wormhole, trans material roared, surged, and boiled. The lid of the Life Essence Furnace was attacked and it was undergoing a direct transformation. It had enlarged itself to the point that it resembled a shield, yet also a mirror and was emitting dazzling beams of light. The terrifying energy fluctuations swept through the void and made one feel suffocated.

Wang Xuan felt an indescribable oppression even though he was wrapped in golden and silver beast skins and protected by the Godslaying Banner. The inexplicable buzzing made him restless and deeply uneasy. Fortunately, he wasn't the target of the counterattack.

Crack! 

In front of the wormhole, the silver-white spaceship that emerged was damaged. Its exposed bow was broken, it was shattered by the ripples expanded by the furnace lid. Then, everything fell silent. The lid of the Life Essence Furnace gradually shrank and had rapidly returned to its original state. Wang Xuan's spirit was extremely weak, he was almost drained. Although the furnace lid had already accumulated rich trans material, it still affected him like a tide when it absorbed energy just now. It had plundered his transcendent energy.

Without any delay, he wore the five-piece set, SSBAL and immediately rushed into the silver-white spaceship. The part of the ship that protruded from the wormhole was completely destroyed, but the latter part had no major issues. Moreover, it was divided into four compartments, which could be dismantled.

Sure enough, there were living beings in the rear compartment. Although they were human-like, they were not humans from the New World or the Old World. Their bodies were covered in green skin that had bumps and no hair. They had four eyes and large heads. Wang Xuan showed no mercy and instantly exterminated their spirits. With a sweep of the Godslaying Banner, all dozen or so individuals turned into lifeless corpses. Their spirits shattered and nothing was left behind.

"This spaceship is a combination of technology and transcendence. It is somewhat similar to the evil spirit’s spaceship."

After killing all the aliens, he disappeared in an instant. Upon seeing their own battleship, he was quite shocked. The small-sized warship was riddled with cracks and was severely damaged. This made it unable to navigate far. Returning to his physical body, he just opened his eyes and was met with concerned gazes. Several people were watching him intently.

"The enemies have all been vanquished," Wang Xuan spoke.

"Are you hurt?"

"Are you okay?"

Both Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin spoke simultaneously. They feared that he might have encountered some problem himself.

"I'm fine. Let's leave here and find a more advanced spaceship!" Wang Xuan said. He was responsible for protecting Qing Mu, while the other individuals were all transcendents who could withstand the cold vacuum of space for a short period.

The group quickly moved forward and had arrived near the wormhole. At this moment, the silver-white spaceship was undergoing self-repair. It discarded the damaged parts. The broken parts self-detached and were repaired, thanks to its active metal components.

"A supernatural cosmic spaceship?!" Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin exclaimed. They knew about ships of this level, which had been excavated from the moon in the past, and the major conglomerates of the New World still couldn't develop them.

Wang Xuan opened the hatch and led everyone inside. He instructed the spaceship expert Qing Mu to study the control room, while he began to dispose of the bodies. He was throwing them all out.

"Never mind this spaceship for now. Come over to me," Wang Xuan said. He swiftly summoned them, because just now he had triggered his heightened spiritual perception, almost akin to divine perception. It had opened up the inner landscape.

His inner landscape was different from before. The descending substances were trans material that were close to the truth. It was like silver light, like that purple mist, it was very similar to the substances of the void. In the age of decline, those immortal bone cans had little oil left, and the internal trans material was extremely sparse. It was far from comparable to the past, and its duration was short. But his inner landscape did not show signs of decay. Instead, it became even more mysterious.

"Wow, am I entering the immortal realm? Why does the trans material here make people so comfortable? It's like being baptized. My spirit is being nourished!" Little Fox exclaimed, feeling it was much stronger than his grandfather's cave. The barrier of the secret land simply couldn't compare to this place.

It was not Qing Mu’s first time, but he still felt novelty and was full of expectations.

Could I transcend? Perhaps today was an opportunity. 

"Is this your inner landscape?" Zhao Qinghan looked at Wang Xuan.

Wu Yin was quite shocked. It was her first time entering such a strange place in a spiritual state.

"Brother Wang, Master, I'll follow you from now on. We agreed to share the years and share the glory. I will fight with you and traverse the vast universe!" The shaken Transcendent Ma immediately expressed his loyalty. Everyone present felt that the trans material here was different from the outside world. It was inexplicably strange. It nourished the spirit and made people crave from the bottom of their hearts.

Wang Xuan said, "Familiarize yourselves with this place first. Don't rush into cultivation. Here, your spiritual perception will increase countless times, it’ll be like stealing time. And the trans material here is special. You'll gradually experience it." Except for Qing Mu, the other four were entering the inner landscape for the first time and they were filled with amazement.

"Did you just use your spirit to destroy that spaceship?" said Zhao Qinghan as she walked over, looking at Wang Xuan. She felt that his familiar face was enveloped in the light of mythology.

Had he really reached such a level of cultivation? To be able to confront an extremely advanced spaceship with individual power. 

"I used a very powerful transcendent weapon. I'm afraid I won't have this kind of power anymore after the extinction of mythology," Wang Xuan said.

"During cultivation, set yourself a small goal first. I want to reach the sixth stage of Ma, and then go on to become a ten-stage celestial horse that breaks limits. I’ll be walking through the sky from then on," said Transcendent Ma as he began setting goals for himself. Qing Mu was immediately stimulated. He stayed silent, quickly found a place to sit cross-legged and began to read the scripture.

"For the sake of transformation, to become as beautiful as Zhao Zhao and as big as Big Wu, I have to cultivate!" exclaimed the Little Fox.No longer charming at this moment she became very obedient and had sworn to advance. Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin accidentally touched Wang Xuan's arm and immediately felt something was wrong. This was a contact between their spirits. They quickly withdrew after realizing what was happening.

"I'll give each of you a set of spiritual armor," Wang Xuan smiled.

Soon after, the inner landscape became quiet. Everyone began to cultivate. Matters that were close to the truth fell from nothingness just like snowflakes. It kept this place from decaying into myth. Wang Xuan's perception was extremely extraordinary. With his spiritual eye and his eleventh stage, he could capture mythic traces that other supernaturals couldn't imagine.

He frowned when he suddenly heard a crying sound again. He finally got up and walked towards the depths of the inner landscape, touching the rough stone-like boundary. He saw a faint fire and someone was crying by the dying fire. This wasn't the first time he'd seen this, he had experienced it before. But this time was different. A blurry figure was approaching the fire, then with a splash, Wang Xuan saw blood-like liquid splatter on the rough boundary. The creature then dragged the weakening crying person away. Wang Xuan felt a headache and his hair stood on end. A layer of cold goosebumps rose on his skin.

What did I see? A murder scene? 

Meanwhile, in the wormhole, the silver-white spaceship had finished self-repairing. It slowly started up and then sailed away. It was following a pre-set route.

......

In the depths of the vast universe, the ancient spaceship carrying Fang Yuzhu, Zhang Daoling, the demon lord Yan Yan, and the Hades Blood Patriarch was about to leave the territory corresponding to their mythical civilization.

"I'm looking forward to it. I wonder if the news is reliable. It's rumored that in that battlefield, creatures from the previous mythical era have come back to life," said the Hades Blood Patriarch. He was quite excited.

The demon lord Yan Yan spoke, "The key is the rumored rewards. They seem quite special. Well, I've decided to let the main god of the immortal realm participate. It seems possible to enter their large boundary from our great veil, even if it sparks a great war. I must win!"

Zhang Daoling said, "I think outside the large boundary, the competition in the present world is equally fierce, and the rewards are equally considerable. We should summon that kid Wang Xuan. He must be at the eleventh stage now. He might have some opportunities to avoid the top incarnations of the strongest in the present world,."

Fang Yuzhu said, "The incarnations of the strongest have some amazing roots and origins. Moreover, it’s not just our civilization, but it's a war across domains this time. It’s destined to be extremely dangerous. He might have a chance if he can step into the twelfth stage and open up new domains."
