Within the Extinguished Great Barrier, a dozen dazzling figures illuminated the dim battlefield. Wang Xuan showed these people respect and gave it his all.

Although he was at the Eleventh Stage, he was seriously injured and could not hold back. He had to take down these beings that had broken through the limits in a short time.

Outside, everyone stared blankly, like clay or wooden statues, then their breathing quickened, their hearts filled with excitement. That was Ten Stages expert who had broken through limits, yet even when they joined forces to attack him, they couldn't defeat him and were being blasted away.

"No solution to the Eleventh Stage!" In the Immortal Land, a patriarch from the Gouchen Imperial Palace spoke, standing in outer space with a strange look in his eyes, a mixture of admiration and regret.

An Old Woman from the Land of Deities, the Supernatural Palace, spoke up, saying, "It's a pity that he's only reached the Eleventh Stage at this age. If the environment were better, he might have been able to advance to the twelfth stage."

A middle-aged man dressed in modern clothes from the Land of Technological Life spoke up, "Forget it, there has never been a twelfth stage since ancient times. That field is barren and has no records."

A young-looking woman, who was the guardian of order at this grand event, disagreed, saying, "Not necessarily. Fang Yuzhu from the Land of Immortal Dao is speculated to have broken through again after her Nirvana, undergoing another Great Nirvana. In recent years, she has become completely unfathomable."

As the fourth Extinguished Great Curtain, Wang Xuan unleashed a series of powerful attacks, fighting alone against eleven Limit Breakers despite his exhausted and severely injured body, a truly awe-inspiring feat.

"Song of Light and Darkness!" Among the Limit Breakers, the being without a fixed form, merely a ball of Dark Light, named Wu Hai, transformed into a black hole and swallowed Wang Xuan, enveloping his body.

"Make your move!" it shouted to the others. During this process, an extremely brilliant light appeared inside the black hole, like thunder, like the first spark of civilization, exceptionally sacred and dazzling, burning within the black hole.

This method had suppressed those of the same level who had broken through limits; if it hadn't stopped, it would have annihilated the Mechanical Black Roc back then.

But now, in that alternation of light and darkness, Wang Xuan's body only paused briefly and was not damaged. He violently shook, unleashing his magical body, causing a deafening roar, as if a colossal god or demon had opened up the space where light and darkness were constantly shifting, as if the world was being created.

Everyone else acted decisively; some slashed in with swords, some launched exotic treasures, and some roared as they pounced in.

With a loud thud, a Dark Light, like a black hole, exploded out. Wang Xuan staggered and rushed out. Apart from the shock of his old injuries and the blood staining his wounds, there was no other visible change.

However, Wu Hai completely lost its fighting power, and when the Dark Light gathered again, it was extremely dim, so it had to withdraw from the battlefield.

Wang Xuan strode forward, using his Spiritual Heavenly Eye to construct an extraordinary technique, Samadhi True Fire fixed pattern, with three-colored flames flowing around him, which he successfully executed.

Boom!

A ball of fire, swollen by the wind, engulfed the insectoid woman in front of her. She soared into the sky, struggling violently, but her hard carapace was still ignited, and she was severely injured.

The second part of the Golden Bamboo Slip is about the study of various extraordinary techniques and formulas, Wang Xuan used the complete Samadhi True Fire for the first time.

"No wonder that in ancient times, this kind of fire was so powerful that it was said to be able to burn even demon saints. Now, in the initial trial, the effect is indeed very strong." Wang Xuan was quite satisfied.

The next moment, many feathers and scales floated around him, all materialized from Super Material. Then, the figure of the Vermilion Bird and the ethereal body of the True Dragon hovered there.

With a flick of his wrists, he successfully unleashed the combined attack of the dragon and the sparrow. Finally, he manifested the White Tiger and the Black Tortoise, thus forming the Four Symbols.

In an instant, it was as if a vast sky enveloped the area, the four elements manifested, heaven and earth collapsed, and with a loud bang, it pressed down, blasting away the Limit Breakers who were besieging him.

He coughed up blood, his injured body aggravated by the shock, and shook his head, saying, "This technique is somewhat lacking in refinement. Theoretically, it could summon the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise to join the battle."

"Kill!" The Limit Breakers were determined. As long as they could fight again, they would not easily admit defeat. The remaining people rushed forward and each used their strongest techniques.

Wang Xuan went all out, his eyes bloodshot with rage. Despite his physical limitations, his fighting prowess was truly terrifying. He didn't hold back and unleashed his full potential.

His Fist Light, accompanied by the Primordial Spirit Sword, swept across the land, illuminating the Extinguished Great Barrier and blasting away or piercing the bodies of the remaining people.

In the end, all the Limit Breakers who participated in the battle lay on the ground. Some had broken bones, some had their internal organs pierced, and some were nearly severed at the shoulder...

The strong lay dead like corpses, blood was everywhere. The only saving grace was that Wang Xuan did not kill them at the last moment, and everyone survived, no matter how serious their injuries were.

The main reason was that these people held their ground at the last moment and did not use Zhao Qinghan, Qing Mu, and others to restrain Wang Xuan, which made his murderous intent subside.

Outer space was quiet. What could people say? Staring at this scene, they felt a mix of emotions, especially those powerful lineages that cultivated imperial palaces and laboratories that produced Ten Stages of beings.

The sight of countless Limit Breakers being severely injured sent shivers down everyone's spines.

Of the four Supernatural Civilization and a total of sixteen Limit Breakers, eleven have fallen here. All of them were defeated by a single individual who broke through their combined power.

"At the end of the mythical era, I was fortunate enough to witness such a battle. I feel it was all worthwhile. I will die in a few months. This trip was not in vain. It was exhilarating. This is a battle worthy of being recorded in the history of cultivation!"

Finally, in outer space, heated discussions gradually arose from inside each spaceship.

The powerful forces and organizations such as Gouchen Imperial Palace, Supernatural Palace, and Eternal Laboratory were also quite shocked. Looking at the lone figure standing in the arena, they felt both amazed and regretful.

"If it were a few decades earlier, I would have been willing to nurture him with the resources of the Supernatural Palace. Now... it's too late. Let's just consider it the last brilliant ray of light at the end of an era."

"If I had another twenty years, and the extraordinary hadn't faded away, I would have done everything I could to help him, using the Ghost Spirit and all the perfect evolution fluids we've researched on him. But it's a bit too late now!"

Some people lamented that this was a problem deliberately presented to them by the Great Universe, allowing them to see promising talents, but ultimately it could only end in an imperfect way.

Each spaceship transmitted the captured battle situation to its respective home planet, causing a huge sensation and storm that day.

One person defeating eleven Limit Breakers is even more legendary than any classic battle recorded in mythology, making the extraordinary planet of the present world restless.

Qing Mu, Zhao Qinghan, Wu Yin, and the others were not unaware that Wang Xuan was very strong, but when the battle came to an end, they were still shocked and their hearts were filled with turbulent waves.

The Little Fox Immortal exclaimed excitedly, "Wow, he truly lives up to his reputation as the fierce Wang! No wonder he performed so well back in the secret realm, and even in the depths of the universe, he still manages to stand out!"

Horse Chao Fan was also in a daze. He had a big enough heart and highly recognized Wang Xuan's status and extraordinary abilities, but now it seemed that he had underestimated him.

It sighed, "I thought that Brother Wang would always encounter a few opponents who would require him to fight to the death, and that he might even be defeated. But now it seems that it will be difficult to achieve that, and his desire for defeat is destined to be fruitless!"

Finally, the second round of tests ended, and Wang Xuan disappeared from the battlefield, returning to the spaceship.

This time, he was rewarded with six Good Fortune True Crystal, in various colors, dazzling and sacred, radiant, and permeated with a rich, almost real substance.

"Such a thing actually exists..." Wang Xuan exclaimed in surprise. Back then, he had gone through a great battle in the Supernatural Light Sea outside the Time Bar before obtaining this crystal. Now, the Immortal Land could actually bestow it upon him. This was truly extraordinary.

"Old Qing, Qing Han, Wu Yin... one for each of you." He distributed all six Good Fortune True Crystal, even the Mechanical Xiao guarding the spaceship received one. He was so happy that he did a backflip and shouted, "Old Man Wang!"

Horse Chao Fan was stunned for a moment before saying, "I mean, you have even less integrity than me!"

Wang Xuan slapped the Mechanical Xiao away, warning it not to bark. The bear, trying to be cute, blinked its big eyes and nodded, looking very obedient.

Wang Xuan immediately began to treat his injuries, even swallowing a piece of celestial medicine.

Because he realized that the Immortal Land was extremely dangerous; it had completely targeted him, and if he were to enter the arena, he would inevitably face a life-or-death test.

"The third test begins. The location is the extinguished land, an ancient battlefield where the most tragic battle once took place. Perhaps some remnant souls have been revived in this Mythological Era. Demons and monsters lurk in the shadows, but they are no longer the same as before. Like a dream, they await your experience."

This time, Wang Xuan was not given much rest time before the teleportation began.

This land of the dead is vast and boundless, shrouded in wisps of black smoke. It contains not only various illusions and lingering spirits, but also spiritual beings of varying strength.

These were no challenge for Wang Xuan. He cut through the land as easily as chopping vegetables, traversing the lost land until he encountered the book again.

"You've shown up again. This time it shouldn't be your business, right? You're not going to come up with another story for me and try to correct me, are you?" Wang Xuan didn't give it a friendly look, disgusted by its manipulation of other people's emotions and interference in their choice of future path.

The Book of Years spoke, saying, "Your strength does not allow me to remain low-key and indifferent. Only my appearance can provide you with an opponent of the appropriate level. Otherwise, you will find it difficult to defeat anyone now. Only an enemy with Super Peerless foundation can stimulate your potential and better allow you to continue on the path of the new extraordinary."

"Did someone instruct you to do this?" Wang Xuan asked.

The Book of Years says, "Perhaps some people want me to do this, but no one can command me; this is my own decision. You are exceptionally talented, and I hope you make the perfect choice to abandon those people and things that affect your state of mind as soon as possible. In this life, only the new mythology is your final and best choice; everything else is an illusion."

Wang Xuan initially ignored it, but after thinking about it, he changed his attitude, calmed himself down, and said to it, "You want to tell me stories again to hone my skills, right? That's fine, but let's find a different place. I don't want to be monitored and have my battle footage exposed to everyone. Can we find a quiet place that's isolated from the outside world?"

"Okay, follow me!" The Book of Years gave an affirmative response.

Wang Xuan immediately perked up and made up his mind to correct it in reverse. He would smash it to death with the lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace. If it was Old Covenant Carrier, he would accept it in advance. If not, he would tear the book up!
