Chapter 526: Void Sea of Mist, the Lighthouse Shines Again

Xuanyang nodded.

Although, in his view, was this not a bit too fast? After all, even if the Present World had undergone such great changes, it would still take some time to truly undergo metamorphosis.

Only after metamorphosis could the Present World be considered a bit more solid, with a great possibility of resisting potential risks; but if it had to bear the risks of the Lighthouse Project without metamorphosis, it would be like traveling a hundred miles and stopping at ninety—easy to fall short of success.

But then he had a change of thought.

Could Li Heng, whose strength was greater than his, not think of the things he himself could think of? Moreover, Li Heng was the boss now, and it was up to him to decide; why should he speak up to refute?

Immediately, his mind stirred, and he summoned it from that Source Light.

This Source Light, capable of illuminating the Ten Directions Worlds and shining through the Unknown, was Xuanyang's own life-bound object; they prospered together and suffered together. Now that Xuanyang had reshaped his Dao foundation and returned to the peak of the Half-step Divine realm, the Source Light was also becoming increasingly bright.

Even without driving its true power yet, it could already illuminate the Great Thousand Worlds and make the Time-Space River bright. If it were truly driven, what would that be like? It could absolutely illuminate a vast expanse of the Void.

This Source Light had a Sacred aura.

Li Heng's expression was calm as he evaluated it this way in his heart.

No wonder that Sacred of the Heavenly Court was willing to take Xuanyang to visit the core of the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation back then; with such natural talent, if no accidents occurred, he would surely be a Sacred in the future, worthy of that Sacred placing a bet.

Although world affairs were unpredictable, an accident happened in the end.

The Calamity and monsters destroyed the Heavenly Court like a dimensional strike, destroying the glory of the Immortal God Era, and the so-called Immortal God geniuses were reduced to tiny, insignificant specks of light in that terrifying Great Tribulation.

Xuanyang was unaware of Li Heng's thoughts.

At this moment, his momentum surged, his power rose infinitely, and a brilliant Great Sun rose behind him, illuminating the Time-Space River and shocking the experts in many timelines. He displayed the power of a Half-step Divine, and combined with the Source Light in his hand, wisps of Sacred aura lingered around him, evolving various visions.

A giant god opening chaos, the Supreme towering over the Nine Heavens, the River of Time appearing...

The visions rose, emitting endless Dao rhymes. At this moment, it was as if Xuanyang only needed to exert a little effort to make the ultimate leap and completely transcend, attaining the status of a Sacred Venerable.

But Xuanyang knew himself that he was still far from it.

If a Sacred were really so easy to achieve, then a Sacred would not be worthy of a position in the first tier of the Great Void; this was merely his illusion.

He knew that if he believed in this illusion and truly made the ultimate leap, his potential would be consumed in advance, and once exhausted, he would never be able to attain the Sacred Dao.

He would only become a so-called Pseudo-Sacred!

This was one of the many traps in attaining the Sacred Dao. Just this one trap alone had stalled ninety-nine percent of the experts in the Great Void.

Because this feeling was simply too wonderful; one felt that with just a slight effort, one could transcend, make the ultimate leap, become Omniscient and Omnipotent, and achieve supreme height.

How many people could withstand such temptation?

Or rather, there was no need to withstand it.

Not many people could see through this illusion!

If it were not for the fact that Xuanyang was an Immortal God of the Heavenly Court who had received orthodox inheritance and was not from a wild background, he would not have thought that this wonderful feeling, which came like a flash of inspiration and a response from the Great Dao, was actually an illusion.

He sighed in his heart and tried hard to block out this wonderful feeling. He shifted all his focus onto the Source Light, and then struck the Source Light into the World Origin.

The World Origin had back-up plans he had left behind; even though Li Heng had modified and upgraded the World Origin, those back-up plans had not changed and still existed there.

Xuanyang knew that this was done intentionally by Li Heng, so he did not hesitate and directly activated the back-up plans, using the Source Light as the core to directly start the Present World Lighthouse at maximum power!

The light illuminated the worlds and the Void.

At this moment, if someone were to look down from above the Great Void, they would surely discover that a point of light had suddenly lit up in the vast Great Void, and it was getting brighter and brighter.

The point of light illuminated the surrounding Void and became increasingly abrupt. It was like an ink dot on a white sheet of paper, completely out of place with its surroundings, not fitting the current situation where the Void Is All Dark.

On the ocean of the Great Void, a lonely lighthouse lit up.

But the sea was still surging with waves, rising and falling, and hazy mist shrouded the entire surface. No one knew what this lit-up lighthouse would attract...

"Imperial Teacher, the lighthouse has lit up. And because of the characteristics of the Source Light, this lighthouse of the Present World will become brighter and brighter, finally shining directly to the edge of the Great Void, the Unknown Realm."

"However, this is also thanks to the fact that the Present World is already close to the edge of the Great Void, not the center. Otherwise, even if I attained the Sacred Dao and the Source Light underwent a terrifying metamorphosis, I estimate it wouldn't be able to shine to the Unknown Realm."

Xuanyang appeared somewhat strained, sweat beads appearing on his forehead, looking exhausted. However, most of the consumption was concentrated on the moment of lighting the lighthouse; now that the lighthouse was lit, the consumption was much less.

Li Heng nodded; he understood this point.

Since the Present World served as a lighthouse, used by the Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court in the past to explore the Unknown Realm, then the spatial location of the Present World must certainly be at the edge of the Great Void, in addition to being downstream in the Great Void.

A lighthouse by the sea would not be built in the center of the continent, after all.

This could not be called a Heaven-reaching Lighthouse.

At this moment, the Present World was indeed getting brighter, and Li Heng also faintly sensed that the lit-up Present World had already attracted the attention of some things; from the other side of the Void, gazes seemed to be vaguely cast over here.

However, he felt that this was not enough; he had to add fuel to the fire.

Although the light was increasing infinitely now, the growth rate was too slow; if he wanted to make a big splash with this kind of light, he didn't know how long he would have to wait.

His mind stirred, and he manipulated the Infinite Mechanism to inject Infinite power into the Present World Lighthouse. The light of the Present World Lighthouse surged instantly, forming a light encounter at a higher-order Infinite growth rate, and began to spread and expand to the surroundings.

At this moment, the Present World seemed no longer to be a lighthouse, but a Sun!

The light crossed not only time and space.

But even True Reality and Illusion.

Downstream of the Time-Space River, which had not received the benefits of the Present World's upgrade, was still a time segment of the illusory future. A vast, boundless black hole stood in the deep space of the universe, devouring the matter of the universe with unimaginable, endless attraction.

From a high-dimensional perspective, this black hole was even more terrifying; it was not just devouring matter, but devouring one timeline after another, absorbing variables, and chewing on infinite possibilities.

But suddenly.

Endless light crossed the boundaries and arrived, countless True Realities and Illusions lit up in this dark, dead, deep space of the universe, making it as bright as day, and even illuminating the black hole that could devour even light.

"Eh? This light!"

A voice of surprise came from the black hole.

The black hole essence, which was originally created by Li Heng but whose existence foundation was later denied by Li Heng, and could only wander in the illusory future and could not interfere with the True Reality, felt the surrounding light and fell into deep thought...
