Game Invasion: 100x Evolution, From Weak to God

Buzz!

Dao resonance rippled across the landscape scroll and swept outward.

Then, immortal light burst forth.

The entire Celestial Court ruin vanished.

The gathered Ascendants snapped back to their senses, their faces filled with overwhelming regret. Some even coughed up blood on the spot, consumed by resentment to the point of wanting to end their own lives.

"AAAAAH!"

A grief-stricken howl echoed through the air. One cultivator, looking nearly insane, swept his bloodshot gaze across the crowd.

"Who got the inheritance?!"

Anyone could see that this immortal ruin was no ordinary place. The inheritance hidden within had to be extraordinary.

To watch such an opportunity slip through their fingers without being able to do anything about it was enough to drive people mad.

The crowd exchanged looks.

No one knew who had obtained the inheritance.

In the end, there was nothing they could do.

There were hundreds of cultivators present, perhaps even close to a thousand, and many of them possessed formidable cultivation. No one dared make the first move. Whoever did would immediately become everyone’s target.

After a brief standoff, the crowd gradually dispersed despite their unwillingness.

Caelum had not gone far when Vaelor and Hazel hurried after him.

"Immortal Elder!"

Caelum stopped and looked at Vaelor with amusement.

"Why aren’t you returning to your sect to cultivate that Ancient Age technique? Why are you following me?"

Hazel’s expression immediately tightened.

A flash of alarm rose within her.

This man actually knew that Vaelor had obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Age Celestial Court.

Fortunately, Caelum showed no signs of coveting it.

Only then did she secretly relax.

At the same time, her admiration for his character grew even stronger.

Anyone worthy of being called an Immortal Elder possessed a truly extraordinary heart.

If it were anyone else, an inheritance of this level could turn even masters against disciples and fathers against sons.

Vaelor froze briefly before nodding openly.

"I did obtain the inheritance, Senior. There’s something I’d like to ask. Would you be willing to clear up a few doubts for me?"

"Go ahead."

Caelum continued walking at an unhurried pace.

Vaelor quickly followed.

"Senior, you seem to know a great deal about the Ancient Age Celestial Court. Although I obtained its inheritance, there are still many things I don’t understand. I hope you can enlighten me."

Ordinarily, obtaining an inheritance would have been enough.

Yet Vaelor constantly felt that he had seen those ruins before.

Not recently.

During the Ancient Age itself.

But he was clearly a person of the current era.

How could he possibly possess memories from the Ancient Age?

He had a feeling the answer was extremely important.

Since this Immortal Elder seemed to know so much about both the Ancient Age Celestial Court and the ruins themselves, Vaelor had no choice but to seek answers from him.

Caelum did not hide anything.

After all, these were hardly forbidden secrets.

"At the end of the Primordial Age, the Celestial Court united the fortune of The Infinite Realms and suppressed the Eternal Forbidden Lands. With that, the Primordial Age came to a complete end, and a new era began. That era became known as the Ancient Age."

"Though historical records collectively refer to it as the Ancient Age Celestial Court, there were actually two Celestial Courts during that era."

"The first was the Eternal Celestial Court. Despite its name, it existed only briefly."

"It possessed a supreme technique known as Ant Crossing the Sea. Today, that art has vanished entirely from The Infinite Realms."

"After the Eternal Celestial Court came the Grand Unity Celestial Court. It followed the same path as its predecessor, seeking the ultimate Great Transcendence beyond heaven and earth."

"Later, it gathered the strength of The Infinite Realms and chose a different approach. It waged war against the Eternal Forbidden Lands and obtained a certain object."

"Using that object, it created a technique known as the Grand Unity Art."

"It was also called the Myriad Lifetimes Incarnation Art."

"Or the Myriad Lifetimes Convergence Art."

"The technique consists of two volumes. The upper volume is the Myriad Lifetimes Incarnation Art, while the lower volume is the Myriad Lifetimes Convergence Art."

"Mastering either one grants immense fortune."

"Mastering both allows one to walk directly toward the Realm of Dao Extremity."

"The inheritance you obtained from the ruins is the lower volume, the Myriad Lifetimes Convergence Art."

"..."

"..."

The more Vaelor and Hazel listened, the more shocked they became.

Secrets involving transcendence itself were far more terrifying than any Immortal Legacy.

Anyone hearing such revelations would be shaken to the core.

For a long moment, neither knew what to say.

In truth, the appearance of the Grand Unity Celestial Court ruins had been specifically meant to pass the Myriad Lifetimes Convergence Art to Vaelor.

Anyone who had not cultivated the upper volume, the Myriad Lifetimes Incarnation Art, could never obtain the lower volume’s inheritance.

The Wheelcycle Divine Power that had yet to fully awaken within Vaelor in this life was itself one of the manifestations of the Myriad Lifetimes Incarnation Art.

Only after recovering from their shock did Hazel’s excitement explode.

With such an inheritance, Vaelor’s future path toward the supreme Immortal Dao would be limitless.

Then her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Immortal Elder, you seem to know countless secrets of heaven and earth."

Caelum nodded.

"I know a few things."

Hazel immediately leaned forward with curiosity.

"Then may I ask something else? During the Imperial Calamity War, was it really true that the ten incarnations of the calamity came from the same master?"

"And was there truly a mastermind behind everything?"

Caelum could not help but laugh.

"What? Are you planning to uncover this mastermind yourself?"

Hazel sighed in admiration.

"If such a person truly existed, I’d love to meet them."

"To teach ten disciples like that."

"To personally guide the fall of an entire age."

"And to remain hidden so completely throughout it all."

"The methods of such a person would be enough to shake heaven and earth and terrify even ghosts and gods."

"Hahaha!"

Caelum genuinely laughed.

Discussing himself from someone else’s perspective was a surprisingly novel experience.

Seeing that he still had not revealed anything about the Imperial Calamity, Hazel frowned.

"Could it be that even you don’t know much about it, Immortal Elder?"

"I know a little."

"Really?!"

Hazel’s eyes immediately lit up.

Just then, a streak of violet light shot across the sky and landed before them.

An elderly Daoist in flowing robes stepped out from the divine rainbow.

Vaelor and Hazel hurriedly bowed.

"Master!"

"Master!"

Both were astonished.

Violetsun had never left his secluded realm before.

Yet today he had personally come here.

The reason was obvious.

He had come because of the Grand Unity Celestial Court ruins.

"Vaelor, Hazel, were you just..."

He had been about to question them.

Then his gaze casually swept across the group.

The moment he saw Caelum, his words stopped.

His pupils contracted.

An overwhelming sense of fear surged through him.

He froze in place.

Vaelor and Hazel immediately noticed something was wrong.

Their eyes darted back and forth between Caelum and Violetsun.

Neither understood what was happening.

"Master?"

Vaelor called out.

Only then did Violetsun regain his composure and suppress the shock on his face.

Caelum, however, still remembered him.

His voice was as warm and gentle as ever.

"Fellow Daoist Violetsun, we meet again. I suppose this counts as a reunion between old acquaintances."

"Indeed."

Violetsun sighed.

"Since our meeting over seventy thousand years ago, this old Daoist has only managed to survive by luck. My cultivation is nothing compared to what it once was."

"And yet, Fellow Daoist, you remain as unfathomable as ever."

Standing before him was very likely the hidden mastermind behind the Age of Imperial Calamity.

Even though Caelum revealed not a trace of his aura, Violetsun still felt an immense pressure weighing upon him.

His heart grew heavier with every passing moment.

At last, he fixed his gaze on Caelum and voiced the question that had haunted him for tens of thousands of years.

"Fellow Daoist, forgive my boldness."

"Was it you who secretly orchestrated the Imperial Calamity War from behind the scenes?"
