Chapter 489: The Third Fated Battle (Part Twelve)

"Xuan Yi, you've taken so long to deal with them!"
The Imperial Immortal King's eyes were cold.
Faced with the Imperial Immortal King's words, Immortal King Xuan Yi replied helplessly, "You should know how troublesome these guys are. I alone cannot defeat them."
"That's precisely why the calamity pulled you back from the non-existent era."
The Imperial Immortal King said, "Useless!"
Hearing this, Immortal King Xuan Yi nodded, stepping aside without any intention of attacking. He addressed the Mountain and River Immortal King and the others, saying, "Whether you kill him or he kills you, I will support you!"
The Imperial Immortal King's aura, like an unyielding haze, shrouded the heads of the many Immortal Kings.
Dongfang Yunxiao said with apprehension, "What a terrifying fellow! He's countless times more terrifying than Xuan Yi!"
"This is the Grandmaster's former opponent?"
The Mountain and River Immortal King slowly spoke, "Leave this fellow to me. Yunxiao, Tree Ancestor, you two mustn't let anyone else destroy the Witness's World."
Dongfang Yunxiao and Tree Ancestor decisively left the battlefield. Seeing this, Xuan Yi Immortal King didn't stop them; his gaze remained fixed on Yu Ji Immortal King.
The Mountain and River Immortal King's gaze also fell upon Yu Ji Immortal King.
The Immortal Kings who had once transformed into him abandoned their opponent, breaking free of their shackles and surging into the Mountain and River Immortal King's body.
As boundless radiance illuminated the past and present, a new order formed within the Mountain and River Immortal King's body.
Countless spaces and times shattered inch by inch around him. As a terrifying aura swept across the battlefield, the Mountain and River Immortal King reached an unprecedented level.
The Supreme Immortal King, observing this scene, remarked, "Cultivating multiple Worldly Fruits to break through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor on one's own—a good idea."
"Unfortunately, there's a gap even among Quasi-Immortal Emperors!"
.........
Within the Reverse Fate Space
"No wonder the Supreme Immortal King could make that guy Xuan Yi so wary."
The moment he clashed with the Supreme Immortal King, Su Chen separated a wisp of his consciousness and returned to the Reverse Fate Space.
He had to admit, this was the first time he had truly faced the Supreme Immortal King, and only then did he truly feel the terrifying power of such an existence.
Su Chen opened the Reverse Fate Book.
[Evaluation: Nine-Star Colored
Reward: 90,000,000 Reverse Fate Points]
This time, he had gained a remarkable nine-star colored Reverse Fate Point, bringing his total accumulated Reverse Fate Points to 270 million.
"That's enough!"
Having accumulated so many Reverse Fate Points, Su Chen opened the Reverse Fate Book.
After he decided to add them all to his Comprehension...
"?"
[Talent: 0 (+)
Comprehension: 100,000,000 (Points reached the limit)
Family Background: 0 (+)]
When Comprehension reaches 100 million, the plus sign disappears, replaced by the Comprehension limit, preventing further point addition.
Su Chen looked at the Book of Reversal of Fate in his palm. He was silent for a moment, then smiled, "So that's how it is... Reversal of Fate... Reversal of Fate!"
With 170 million Reversal of Fate points remaining, Su Chen added 1 million points each to Talent and Family Background, then stopped adding points. A vague understanding dawned on him.
Su Chen opened the Book of Reversal of Fate and began the next chapter.
......
The glorious past.
Countless eons have passed since Su Chen last left the Mountain and River Immortal Realm.
In a grotto-heaven within an infinite realm, a middle-aged figure slowly opened his eyes. The aura he casually exuded was enough to overturn countless worlds. This was a True Immortal, and one of the most powerful True Immortals of all time!
As Su Chen awakened his memories, in this life, before he even awakened his powers, he had already stepped into the realm of immortality, becoming one of the most powerful True Immortals of all time.
“The Mountain and River Sect…is destroyed.”
Countless ancient histories surged through Su Chen's mind, including the history of the Mountain and River Realm. Hundreds of eons ago, with the outbreak of the Chaos of the Immortals, the Mountain and River Sect declined and gradually perished… That was long after Su Chen's last disappearance; even the Mountain and River Dao Ancestor had become a legend.
To this day, the immortal path flourishes, and True Immortals are attempting to leave this world.
Su Chen sighed inwardly. This was both a good thing and a bad thing... The Immortal Path flourished; before his passing, countless True Immortals were born to resist the alien realms. However, with the deaths of the True Immortals of the Mountain and River Sect, this prosperous era of the Immortal Path would not tolerate the existence of such a colossus—this was the inevitable consequence.
Even the Dragon God Palace was destroyed along with it.
With this thought, Su Chen's figure disappeared from the Immortal Cave Heaven. With his current strength, he was practically a peak True Immortal. Exploring the past causes and effects of the Mountain and River Sect, Su Chen arrived at a certain place.
After hundreds of eras, the Mountain and River Sect had indeed declined, to the point that only True Immortals were qualified to touch this taboo. Now, only a small mountain gate remained.
"Hmm?"
Su Chen suddenly raised his head. Imperceptible threads intertwined and spread in the depths of his eyes, then transformed into a figure.
"So that's how it is...no wonder I felt there was a familiar cause and effect associated with that young Ling."
The Mountain and River Sect, still called the Mountain and River Sect, is now in ruins, reduced to a small mound.
However, today is a day of great joy within the Mountain and River Sect. The sect leader has given birth to his first child. In this small sect of only a dozen or so members, this is a major event. The disciples chatter excitedly, even the large yellow dog at the sect gate barks incessantly. It's a celebratory day.
Soon, a young girl peeks out, looking towards the sect gate, because the dog is barking unusually loud today.
At the sect gate, erected by a broken stone tablet, stands a middle-aged man with slightly graying temples. His gaze is gentle, yet seems to hold the weight of life's experiences. He slowly squats down and strokes the still-barking dog. The dog wags its tail and wags at the man, clearly very affectionate.
"When did that silly dog ​​become so affectionate towards a stranger?"
The girl knew very well that despite being an ordinary big yellow dog, it was incredibly fierce; otherwise, her master wouldn't have sent it to guard the mountain gate.
"Uncle, this is the Mountain and River Sect. Are you a martial artist passing through?"
The girl admitted it.
The man before her was indeed very charming, and she couldn't help but approach him, bending down to ask curiously.
The stranger was naturally Su Chen.
Su Chen smiled and said, "Yes and no."
The girl blinked.
Su Chen said, "I've come for a matter of cause and effect."
The girl blinked.
Su Chen: "..."
"I've come to see your sect leader."
The girl suddenly realized, "So, Uncle, you've come to pay your respects to your master?"
Su Chen shook his head: "No."
The girl: "..."
