Chapter 419: Recorders of Past and Present (Part 30)

Su Chen traversed countless dimensions and then endless time, guided by an unseen force.
He encountered the auras of two supreme beings locked in combat, one of whom seemed strangely familiar.
"You're back?"
Su Chen arrived at the battlefield.
One of the figures was the Lord of War, and the other, fighting him, resembled a scholar.
Their battle did not produce any world-destroying phenomena.
Each of their clashes, though taking place in the present, caused turmoil in a different dimension and at a different time!
The Lord of War, seeing Su Chen strolling towards him, was overjoyed. The presence of a witness, not a strange Immortal King, meant he had succeeded!
Su Chen nodded. "I'm back!"
Seeing Su Chen return, the scholar sighed, "In the end, we failed. The Immortal King of Causality is truly difficult to completely erase."
His figure vanished from this space-time. The moment Su Chen appeared, he knew his plan had failed. Continuing to entangle them would only give the two opponents an opportunity, and perhaps he too would find it difficult to escape.
The War Lord and Su Chen didn't stop them. The difference in their cultivation levels wasn't significant; if an Immortal King wanted to escape, the two of them couldn't completely stop him.
Their most important task now was to reach the final battlefield!
The War Lord and Su Chen didn't exchange many words. They directly traversed the vast torrent of time and space. These forbidden domains would surely cause any True Immortal to get lost, but they couldn't stop Su Chen and the War Lord's progress.
Gradually, the two also felt some strain.
However, soon, a dazzling light suddenly appeared before their eyes.
That was a scene from before the heavens shattered, before the world turned to nothingness, where numerous Immortal Kings had already gathered.
One of the Immortal Kings, seeing Su Chen and the Lord of War, smiled and said, "Lord of War, witnesses, it's truly remarkable that you two were able to return safely."
The Lord of War, seeing him, sighed, "We almost got lost. I didn't expect 'Disaster' to be so concerned, sending that fellow Xuan Yi to hinder the witnesses' return."
The Immortal King was somewhat surprised to hear the name Xuan Yi: "Such a dangerous fellow. It seems 'Disaster' truly values ​​the witnesses."
The Lord of War nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Su Chen roughly estimated that there were over a hundred Immortal Kings gathered here.
Past, present, and future, all converged in one place.
No...
Su Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.
The Immortal King, speaking with the Lord of War, laughed, “As you think, this is the battlefield, and also the final barrier… The power of ‘Calamity’ is blocked across this multiverse. If this place collapses, the most terrible consequence will be that ‘Calamity’ will return, and then everything will cease to exist, and we will all perish.”
“The Immortal Kings who are going down to prove their Dao will rush here immediately, and our mission is to prevent ‘Calamity’ from forming, from non-existence to existence.”
Su Chen was deeply shocked. The existence of Immortal Kings was the foundation of all existence, like a complete circle, one end connected to the other, proof upon proof. But this circle had been shattered. Not only was the circle of Immortal Kings broken, but the very origin of all existence had been shattered. A complete circle had become a spiraling, ascending unknown.
Therefore, others could use this to attain Immortal King status, and future Immortal Kings would eventually come here to fight against the 'Calamity' together.
What a grand scheme!
"The next assault is about to begin. Witness, you must be prepared!"
The Immortal King instructed Su Chen.
The Lord of War said, "The next assault? It hasn't been long since the last assault!"
He felt a sense of unease.
The Immortal King continued, “In the last battle, although the Chief successfully suppressed the Supreme Immortal King and even severed the Dao Fruit of one of his Immortal King bodies… he still managed to obtain an item from the ‘Calamity.’ The Chief deduces that this item must be of paramount importance, otherwise the Supreme Immortal King wouldn’t have paid such a high price.”
But as soon as he finished speaking,
the Immortal King’s expression turned strange.
He looked up at a certain spot.
At this moment, many Immortal Kings, including Su Chen, were all looking in one direction.
This was the so-called Impact!
Different Immortal Kings, from different times and spaces, had come. Although they were in the present, they all unanimously wanted to reach the upward path, to reach the unknown place where the ‘Calamity’ existed!
The power of those Immortal Kings would assimilate with the ‘Calamity,’ giving the ‘Calamity’ a vessel in this time and space!
Su Chen understood their mission:
That was to block these people on this inevitable path, preventing them from fulfilling their mission!
The Warlord said, "The Dao Fruits they once possessed were comrades-in-arms who fought alongside us, but they were all altered by the power of 'Disaster,' turning them into enemies."
"Now, what they want is to create a future ruled by 'Disaster.' If they succeed, we will disappear; if they fail, they will disappear!"
It's simple: this is a struggle between existence and annihilation, a life-or-death struggle.
And here they are, constructing an impenetrable net.
Su Chen also saw familiar faces here.
'Heavenly Gang Immortal King,' or rather, Imperial Supreme Immortal King.
And there was also the white-robed scholar, Xuan Yi Immortal King.
Besides them, there were only twenty-three other Immortal Kings.
"This is truly a headache..."
Imperial Supreme Immortal King appeared, seeing the crowd still blocking their way, and even more unfamiliar faces, causing him to rub his head.
At this moment, Su Chen narrowed his eyes, the Book of Cause and Effect in his hand flipping through pages, finally settling on one.
"This guy..."
The page was erased, revealing the image of a white-robed scholar. The white-robed scholar, Xuan Yi Immortal King, was now smiling at Su Chen.
Su Chen's expression remained unchanged. He extended two fingers, forming a sword shape, and lightly traced them across the page.
A single thought encompassed countless dimensions: Xuan Yi Immortal King actually wanted to annihilate Dongfang Yunxiao's existence!
This forced Su Chen to confront him directly.
At this moment, Yu Ji Immortal King launched his attack, attempting to tear through the seemingly unbreakable net.
Immortal King Xuanyi wasn't surprised to see Su Chen appear at the same moment.
"That guy Yu Ji wanted me to trap you here. Now that you're here, my mission is complete."
Immortal King Xuanyi had anticipated Su Chen's pursuit. He chuckled softly, and a disc appeared in his hand. As the disc shattered, the original spacetime began to slowly close.
This was an attempt to completely trap Su Chen here!
"What's your plan? Why are you so wary of me?"
Su Chen asked.
Immortal King Xuanyi sat cross-legged on the ground, scratched his head, and smiled, saying, "Actually, I don't know the specifics either. That guy Yu Ji said you're really an unkillable cockroach... Since we can't kill you, we can only make you 'disappear,' even if it means disappearing with you, we're willing to do so."
