Tear Open the Old Covenant

As soon God Slaying Banner appeared, intricate golden patterns intertwined. The Book of Years remained fearless and calmly responded, first dodging and then lightly touching the Golden Grid.

"It's nothing special. The flag is badly damaged, and it's the spirit that's being attacked. I'm the vessel, and it can't even harm the essence of my books. You should just give up."

It spoke calmly, the pages turned, and a radiant glow bloomed, blocking the God Slaying Banner!

"Blade Demon, teach him how to be a person, correct his path in life. Blade Demon, I originally had high hopes for you, but unfortunately, you were too ambitious back then. After entering the Carefree Journey, you insisted on undergoing a spiritual rebirth, wanting to go back and find the so-called Twelve Stage Domain to make up for past regrets, and as a result, you died young. Some things are not suitable to be touched too early. Fang Yuzhu's so-called Primordial Spirit Rebirth should have started only after becoming a supreme expert."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xuan's expression changed. This Blade Demon was truly something else. He had reached the Great Realm of Carefree Journey, yet he turned back to try and explore the Twelve Stage Domain again? Quite ambitious.

"All the heartless people died just like that, and you want me to go down the same path? No way!" Wang Xuan spoke up at the right moment.

The Book of Years did not respond, but the Blade Demon charged forward first, slashing down with his blade. In the flash of the blade, nine Undying Bird out, carrying boundless Supernatural Power, and pounced on Wang Xuan.

This is truly moving. With a single strike, the Divine Bird manifests, as if summoning the bloodline of the most powerful beings to join the battle!

Wang Xuan unleashed the Feather Ascension Fist with his left hand and the God Slaying Banner with his right, striking out simultaneously.

The Book of Years spoke, "The flag possesses the power of Peerless Exotic Treasure, but the Blade Demon originated from me, and his longsword is also a part of my body, no less powerful than Peerless Exotic Treasure. Blade Demon, unleash your full power and fight him to the death!"

The Old Covenant Carrier, can "incubate" a supreme treasure. The Demon Blade that has now been developed is Peerless Exotic Treasure, so there's naturally no major problem with it.

Bang!

Beneath the flag, Golden Grid covers the nine-headed Undying Bird, strangling them...!

However, the blade still slashed down, colliding fiercely with the God Slaying Banner, instantly unleashing a terrifying surge of energy that roared through the area.

Wang Xuan no longer wanted to fight him to the death; it was pointless. He had now embarked on Eleventh Stage of his journey and had absolute confidence in himself.

All he wants now is to take down the Book of Years, tear off the culprit, and send Wu Yin's spiritual light back.

Therefore, he would occasionally "pay attention" to the Book of Years, either by hitting it with an enlarged God Slaying Banner or by poking it a couple of times with Iron Stake.

The Book of Years found him somewhat annoying, yet it couldn't get rid of him, but he kept provoking it, making it very unhappy. It felt that this young man was out of touch with reality and didn't know what was good for him.

"I've prepared a path to heaven for you, yet you're so despicable, making a fool of yourself by constantly provoking me. Is that really necessary?"

"Interesting. Only after you send Wu Yin away can I go all out," Wang Xuan said, in fact, he was numbing the Book of Years.

He was afraid that if he used the furnace lid, he might miss and the creature would escape, so he kept provoking it with flags and Iron Stake, looking for opportunities to strike it every now and then.

Puff!

For this, Wang Xuan paid the price. The Blade Demon was indeed very strong. With a slash of light, the Golden Crow and the True Dragon competed, and the two terrifying creatures soared and strangled Wang Xuan, leaving terrible bloodstains on his body and almost cutting him in half!

Of course, he also left a shallow finger hole between the Blade Demon's eyebrows, almost piercing through completely!

"Give me a straight answer, no or no. If you keep threatening me like this, I will never compromise with you or follow the path you've laid out!" Wang Xuan wanted to send Wu Yin away first, afraid of accidentally hurting her, because he was preparing to make a big fuss.

"After you send her away, will you accept the path of correction?" the Book of Years asked.

Wang Xuan immediately nodded and said, "Send her away. If there is an opponent here who can fight me to a draw without defeating me, I can accept the path you corrected!"

"Alright!" The Book of Years agreed. With a flash of light, Wu Yin's spiritual light disappeared, and she was sent back to the spaceship, allowing her spirit to return to its full potential.

Thump!

The outside world was shaking violently because someone inside the Great Barrier had seized Semi-Mature Supreme Treasure and sacrificed it with the blood of an unparalleled expert, causing it to roar. This eventually triggered a resonance in the Immortal Umbrella, the Life Pool, and the Divine Palace, making the entire world tremble and causing unease and even fear.

At this moment, Wang Xuan felt that the time was almost right, and given what had happened outside, he figured no one would notice if he used the lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace now.

The Book of Years felt tedious, and that kid, sneaky as ever, came again, holding Iron Stake. Ignorance is bliss, he was provoking it, trying to poke it again.

"Boom!"

However, the next moment, things were completely different. The rusty Iron Stake was gone, and an antique-looking cover appeared.

At first, the Book of Years felt that he was not on the right track and was going on and on, which was exhausting its patience and goodwill, but now it felt a sense of horror, as if it was about to explode completely.

It tried to escape, but the frog in the slowly boiling water had been waiting too long, and now it was caught off guard and hit by this sudden attack. It was too late; it was bound by the terrifying runes.

With a bang, the pages of the book were smashed and scattered. The dozen or so pages bound by mysterious threads fell like petals. The threads broke, and all the pages fell to the ground!

Wang Xuan was astonished. The pages of this book were incredibly Niu Ben. They hadn't even broken after being hit by the stove lid; the book had only been torn apart. It was truly amazing.

However, upon closer examination, it becomes understandable. This is the vessel for the incubation of a treasure, and it is the fusion of the old covenants of two civilizations, so it is naturally not simple.

Although it's not as powerful as the ultimate treasure, it's still incredibly powerful.

Bang!

He urged the furnace lid to open again, showing no mercy, smashing it as if it were his mortal enemy, preferring to destroy it rather than give it a chance to recover. The furnace lid landed among the papers.

"Stop! Do you want to destroy the Old Covenant Carrier of two civilizations? It could have hatched a treasure! You're committing a crime!" The Book of Years cried out.

Bang bang bang!

Wang Xuan ignored it and struck it three more times. The hazy light that appeared on the Book of Years was smashed and scattered everywhere. The falling pages were covered with dense cracks. One more blow and it might really be destroyed.

Wang Xuan then stopped. As for the Blade Demon, his figure had already become faint after the first strike, and he quickly returned to the Book of Years.

Sizzle!

Wang Xuan used Iron Stake to pierce the paper one by one, and now he can poke it!

Meanwhile, the God Slaying Banner in his hand was not idle either; he used the flag to roll up the paper or used the flagpole to puncture it.

There were twenty-three pages in total, which he simply put away.

"You're insane. You treat the Old Covenant Carrier of two mythological civilizations like this. You want all the pages to be restored? It'll take at least two years. And the Supernatural Finale is over in just a few months. You..." The twenty-odd pages emitted a faint light.

It felt insulted to be like a frog being slowly boiled in water and fished out; this was simply unacceptable.

The Book of Years knows the root of the problem. It is not the Old Testament of this mythical civilization, but belongs to the Vanished civilization. Therefore, it is not as powerful in this era, which is why it was able to be ambushed and succeeded by the kid.

But it was still indignant and felt very ashamed.

Wang Xuan ignored it, and gently shook it again with the furnace lid, causing it more damage, before starting to study it.

Of course, he himself was not having an easy time either, and was almost drained dry again. As for this starry sky, it was roaring and shaking violently. The treasure patterns had just intertwined, which was terrifying.

"I can't figure it out right now, so I'll just put it away for now!" After recovering, Wang Xuan took the loose papers and immediately entered the Life Land, then rushed into the Land of Nothingness in an instant.

He arrived near the Silver Pool and stood in front of the Immortal Tea Tree. Before long, a group of clones appeared like ghosts, surrounding and targeting him.

If it weren't for the lid in his hand, the group of clones would definitely have rebelled. It had been a while since we last saw them, and both "Old Zhang" and "Demon Lord" were unruly and wanted to take their place.

"Everyone, come here. I'm giving each of you an ancient scripture. Study it carefully here. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. When we unite in the future, we'll use these books to refine a supreme treasure!"

Wang Xuan handed out two flyers to each person, without hiding anything, telling them how powerful it was and asking them to study and figure it out.

And so, he "dismembered" the Book of Years!

A few pages remained, roaring, grumbling, whispering, muttering, and thrashing about haphazardly. Wang Xuan ignored them, combining them with the page containing the Great Law of Mental Illness, and sealed them in the meteorite crater he had dug himself, where a Cactus Heavenly Medicine was located.

"What kind of rubbish scripture is this? It's a complete Mental Illness! Separate it from me!" The remaining pages glowed, stubbornly refusing to be next to the page containing the scripture.

How could Wang Xuan possibly grant its wish? He nailed these pages together with Iron Stake, and then pressed the withered yellow paper containing the Great Law of Mental Illness onto the Book of Years.

"I don't want to be around Mental Illness!"

However, Wang Xuan ignored it, left the place, and cultivated and healed in the Land of Nothingness, but unfortunately he was ultimately unable to step into the Twelve Stage Domain.

Soon after, he embarked on his journey home, fearing that something unusual might have happened in the outside world.

Unable to break through the unprecedented Twelve Stage Domain of his domain, his injuries healed. Nourished by the Heavenly Medicine Leaf, near-real substances, and tea and fruit, he returned to his peak!

Because the outside world is in chaos, he felt that he couldn't rely on himself to slowly recover; it was better to get back to his peak condition as soon as possible.

"One of the highest rewards, the Old Covenant Carrier, is now in my hands. Is there any need to continue? I might as well go home." Wang Xuan pondered. This place is too chaotic, full of conspiracies and bloodshed. Even some of the strongest might die. It's not a peaceful place. Perhaps it's time to leave.

However, he believes it needs to be done naturally, not too abruptly. After all, if one of the highest rewards suddenly disappears, everyone will probably frantically search for it once they come to their senses. Just make sure it doesn't involve him.

"It's not necessarily true that they'll investigate it. After all, the Book of Years is free and roams around. It itself says that no one can command it. Even if it disappears for a while, it's no big deal. Who knows where it went?"

After thinking about it, he felt completely relieved.

"The Immortal Umbrella!" someone shouted, as if it had been born and was about to be obtained.

Wang Xuan ignored it. He knew his own limitations; if he dared to enter the Great Barrier to compete now, he would definitely be beaten to death!

He appeared in the extinguished land, strolling leisurely, waiting for the time to come so he could be guided away.

He didn't have to wait long. As the light rain evaporated, he returned to the spaceship, feeling extremely happy!

"After three rounds of selection, the Great War has officially begun. In the battlefield, there are six giant palaces containing Old Covenant Carrier and Semi-Mature Supreme Treasure. These items are not all placed within the Great Barrier; those in the present world with the right destiny can go and seize them!"

From within the Cosmic Void, inside that steel fortress larger than a city, came a voice that provided details of the situation.

The six colossal palaces are named: Human World Palace, Carefree Palace, Nurturing Life Palace, Ascension Palace, Curtain Sky Palace, and Imperial Way Palace.

Qing Mu's expression changed, worried for Wang Xuan. He said, "Has this gone mad? Without stopping, after three rounds of qualifying, they're going straight into the main event, starting the cross-battle, without giving anyone a chance to rest?"

"Wang Xuan, how are you now?" Zhao Qinghan was also worried about his health. Not long ago, he fought a series of battles, and the hidden dangers in his body were not light.

Wu Yin handed him a health drink and said, "Don't push yourself. If you can't, just quit."

"It's alright, I've recovered." Wang Xuan smiled to reassure them. After hearing the names of the six giant palaces, he stopped rushing and wanted to take a look.

A moment later, he was teleported to a decaying Great Barrier that emitted a faint light!

In the universe, in outer space, all the spaceships are watching, capturing images, and recording them.

Qing Mu and his crew's spaceship was also capturing images of the vast battlefield. Soon, Qing Mu was taken aback when he saw a familiar figure.

He exclaimed, "Good heavens, who is that? A short-haired thief with a buzz cut is trying to impersonate my master. Look, he really does look a bit like him. In this vast universe, it's not surprising that people with similar appearances can appear. However, his shifty-eyed and cunning look is nowhere near as good as my master's; he lacks the same charisma! Just wait and see him get a beating. It would be best if he ran into Wang Xuan and got a good lesson from him. Of all people to look like, why did he have to have to resemble my master?"
