In the Great Universe, hazy mountains and rivers emerged, boundless and magnificent, a world like a projection, where the Highest Mental World appeared.

It manifested in the Real World, dimming and blurring the brilliant galaxy in deep space.

The appearance of such a strange phenomenon in the Pingtian Star Domain astonished the world. Even ordinary people who could not see it felt something was amiss, and those Supernatural Practitioner who had reached a certain level of cultivation were also moved and shocked.

"The Highest Mental World has manifested in the present world. Is it going to materialize and become part of the Great Universe?" Someone trembled.

It was a Heavenly Might, the Highest Mental World revealed in the mountains and rivers, making the sun and moon lose their light, and the countless stars seem to be falling down in a flurry.

In particular, people saw that in the Highest Mental World, terrifying creatures spread their wings, so large that they seemed to swallow the minds of the onlookers whole.

"Stop looking. Those creatures are probably remnants of the past. They can be large or small, and are traces of the Dao. When they are large, they manifest and can break through the sea of stars. When they are small, they are only in your eyes. Their divine power in that small space can obscure your mind."

Ascension Star, as one of the most important planets in this star field, naturally has many extraordinary beings residing there, and experts from all walks of life are watching closely.

At the Pingtian Academy, Yan Que, Hong Teng, Qi Miao, An Hong, and others appeared, standing atop a building shrouded in ethereal mist, gazing up at the wondrous sight.

"Don't let your mind wander. Many of these are scenes of past nightmares, some of them are strange. If you get caught up in them, you might not be able to get out," Yan Que warned.

In the Highest Mental World, there were indeed anomalies: a bleeding sun fell, a galaxy was born and destroyed, pale faces were slumbered, and things quickly vanished.

"The sovereigns have begun their operation!" Wang Xuan and the others had been waiting for a long time, and finally they saw some figures, like holy arrows shooting at the sun, disappearing in an instant from the mortal world into the Highest Mental World.

Once one person takes action, the others follow suit, vying for the great opportunity that can already be observed.

"Everyone, the sovereigns are about to eat meat, and we should go in too. We can't wait!" Hong Teng was very strong, with dark skin, and a very tough and explosive temper.

Wang Xuan first encountered him at the Ascension Cliff, where their respective Flying Boat collided, and the divine ape Qi Sheng received a direct slap on the back of the head.

"The soup isn't enough, we need some meat!" The bankrupt An Hong was no longer gloomy; his eyes now shone with light. He was heavily in debt, and this time he was going all out to turn things around.

"Be careful. Among the people coming from other star systems, there must be people like you and me. We might encounter some extraordinary geniuses who have broken through limits in the outer regions."

Qi Miao was dressed in a mechanical battle suit, with a pair of cold metal wings folded behind her. The flowing, mysterious patterns and active metal enveloped her graceful body. She possessed a beauty that contrasted between her alluring curves and her cold temperament, and the crimson lotus mark between her eyebrows glowed.

Beside her was another woman, a rather quiet one, Cai Wei from the Upper Academy, who also made an appearance this time.

In addition, Cheng Tian from the Upper Academy also came. He was a smiling young man who didn't talk much, seemed optimistic, and had short, neat hair.

Cheng Tian was very handsome and gentle, but he carried a broadsword with a rough style on his back, which was like a door panel and was not retracted into his body.

In his hand, Yan Que held a strange crystal that resembled an eyeball, from which various scenes flowed, as he captured the movements of the Highest Mental World.

He said, "We really need to be careful. I think I just saw some guys from the outer realms who don't have a good reputation. There are some unruly Ascension to Immortality, and, well, there are even some people I really hate!"

"When two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave shall prevail. In this great era, who among us Super Limit Breaker is afraid of whom? If they dare to attack us, we don't care what their identity is, we'll just kill them," said Hong Teng, whose face was dark.

They each possessed unique objects, such as crystals resembling eyeballs and snow-white Bone Mirror, all intricately patterned, reflecting distant scenery.

In comparison, Wang Xuan was somewhat "poor," possessing no special treasures, but he could capture extraordinary sights with his own eyes.

Cai Wei, quiet and elegant, with shoulder-length green hair and clear green eyes, was always very calm, but when she spoke, she was quite impulsive. She said, "Well, this can be considered an 'exchange' between Supernatural Civilization in different star regions. When we encounter competitors who are hostile to us, no matter whose descendants they are, if we have the ability to kill them, we should not hesitate."

Overall, Wang Xuan could tell that the people in this Limit Breaker Club, even if they seemed calm and low-key, were incredibly confident at heart.

However, they were not arrogant. They were well-prepared and all wore high-level immortal armor, since there might be a battle between limit breakers from different star regions.

"It's time to go!" After waiting for a long time, Yan Que spoke up and was the first to walk forward. A spaceship was already ready on the rooftop.

Piloting a spaceship into the Highest Mental World? In Wang Xuan's Mother Universe, he would definitely think it's unreliable, but here it's perfectly normal.

Here, everything can become extraordinary; even a toilet can be refined into a magical artifact with its own purification properties, along with extraordinary rice paddies.

Not to mention spaceships, even the Dean sometimes uses this type of standard vehicle to enter and exit the True Immortal Realm, and the hull carries the rules of immortality.

One after another, Spirit World emerged, and they began to break through boundaries. The spaceship carried them, traversing from the lower Mental World and ascending upwards.

The mountains and rivers, the scenery, all felt so real. You could even see all sorts of creatures that belonged to the Spirit World, some of them incredibly powerful, roaring and blotting out the sky as they passed by the spaceship.

Finally, they arrived and entered the Highest Grade Mental World. The ship's flight was no longer as smooth, and it became somewhat sluggish here.

"Here you go!" Yan Que tossed Wang Xuan a pair of silver mechanical armor. The textures and lines on it were very natural, making him look like a robot.

They all knew that Qin Cheng, a rogue cultivator, did not possess any rare treasures. As a result, his movements in the Higher Mental World were subject to various pressures and limitations, such as speed, which caused some trouble.

Everyone entered in their true form, carrying extraordinary treasures, in order to unleash their strongest combat power.

Boom!

Suddenly, a blinding beam of light flew in, distorting the space of the Highest Mental World, demonstrating the immense power of the attack.

The spaceship automatically defended itself, dodging the attack in an instant, and then rose up in Light Mist. The moment it disappeared from its original location, it began to merge into the Spirit World, becoming blurred and difficult to capture.

"Chase them down and kill them. You think you can ambush our entire ship just as we enter?" Hong Teng's murderous aura was palpable. His dark face seemed to say, "I'm a ruthless man, and I'm the one who always makes others back off."

Thump!

The spaceship retaliated immediately. A dark warship appeared in the distant void and disappeared in an instant.

"Sparrow, you're here! Hehe, let's get intimate later!" That was a powerful Divine Sense fluctuation from a woman, which reached this place.

She spoke of the name "Yan Que" with a further sense of contempt, clearly indicating that the two knew each other and that she had come with ill intentions.

"Limit Breakers from outer space?" An Hong asked. This time, anyone who stood in his way of gaining opportunities to repay his debts was a mortal enemy.

"A bitch... a woman who looks ethereal on the outside, if you really encounter her, kill her before she even has a chance to say another word," Yan Que said.

The Highest Mental World is boundless and magnificent without end. They ascended upwards and locked onto a shadowy area, the place where Space-time Intertwine this time.

All great opportunities will arise from there.

They proceeded cautiously, and after a long time, they finally approached their destination. This land contained magnificent mountains suspended in the void, a spiritual full moon swaying with the power of the moon, and various Star Remnants, densely packed in the high sky, detached from the ground.

The true target is shrouded in a cloud of mist, sometimes visible, sometimes hidden, appearing and disappearing among mountains, planets, and the fiery river of the sun.

Many of the scenes are related to the spirit.

Upon arriving here, the group disembarked from the spaceship, stood in a concealed spot, and gazed at the void ahead.

The spaceship shrank to an inch in length and fell into the hands of Yan Que.

Suddenly, a terrifying wave that even made a true immortal tremble emanated, the mist exploded, and an incomparably intense light pierced the sky from the Altar of Heaven in the mysterious area.

Even those who had broken through limits turned pale and staggered backward. The fluctuations were terrifying, vast and unpredictable, as if the will of the Great Universe had awakened and was scrutinizing all living beings!

"Offer sacrifice to the heavens, use my blood as a guide, seize the heavenly rules, and fuse them into my flesh!" There was a spiritual fluctuation, like the undulation of the starry sea, like the collision of the Great World, stirring up the Supreme Rule of the great era, which was extremely terrifying.

A voice actually came out, and the fluctuation of consciousness was as magnificent as the sky pressing down, as endless as an abyss, making even the True Immortal who had broken through the limits turn pale.

"There are actually living things here, extremely powerful creatures?" Wang Xuan's expression changed. He originally thought they were going to explore the ruins, but now it seems that's not the case.

Is this a plan to extract fortune from the mysterious, Supernatural Civilization's sacred ground?

"There are some things that are hard to explain in this kind of place. You'll understand once you go in. It's a place where time and space are disordered, and everything is very strange," Qi Miao told her.

That fluctuation tore through the fog of top-level extraordinary matter, revealing part of the truth at its core.

There were no broken walls or ruins, nor was there any desolation. It was a vast area with an unconventional architectural style, resembling a modern ecological garden, a city amidst mountains and water, with sacred mountains accompanying a Daoist temple. The buildings, constructed with various rare materials, looked very livable.

In that central area, where high-rise buildings are sparse, there is a huge Daoist Dojo where a blurry figure stands on a high platform offering sacrifices to the heavens.

The entire megacity, and the hazy city in the distance, were quiet, as if the place had been deserted, with no one else in sight, leaving only one creature.

A burst of blinding light drew in the Supreme Texture, which merged into a vessel on the high platform, inside which lay a bloody arm.

Wang Xuan realized that his understanding was wrong. This was not like offering a sacrifice to heaven, but rather treating heaven as prey, and that creature was seizing the creation of heaven.

"What level of being is this? Is this some kind of alternative cultivation method? Extracting the Heavenly Rules and refining them into an arm—is this some kind of Dao-imperialized?" Wang Xuan's expression was solemn.

This method of cultivation is extremely domineering and intense.

"What you see may not be the truth. The horrors of the past are intertwined with reality, and you need to carefully distinguish between them. This is only the beginning of uncovering a corner of the distorted time and space," Yan Que reminded.

In a chaotic space-time, at the sacrificial Dojo, the one-armed being guarded the high platform, tempering his remaining arm. His figure was blurred and indistinct.
