Mythical Era: I Evolved Into A Stellar-Level Beast

Chapter 692: Chapter 311 Sealing Heaven and Locking Earth, The Heavenly King Descends

On the Path of Godhood, when Jack Clark passed eight thousand meters, it seemed he touched upon something, and the phantom of a black gate hundreds of meters high emerged at the end.

The gate was like a mirage of the sea market, ethereal and hazy, standing in the void ahead.

“What is that gate?” Jasper Forbes was astonished.

Over a hundred geniuses who had failed the trial and were ejected early were all looking at the anomaly emerging in the Empty Sky-Watching Eye with surprise and suspicion.

Watching that lone figure walking on the white cloud path, Howard Lambert slowly said, “It must be related to Jack Clark; he has gone too far now.”

Compared to those who had only reached a little over three thousand meters, still at the front end of the Road of Heavenly Kings, Jack Clark was almost at the end of the Divine Road.

The gap between them was too vast, especially for those who had only made it through The Peak Road; the gap with the current Jack Clark was even larger.

Thinking of this, Howard’s eyes filled with a hint of admiration.

Who would have thought, half a year ago at South Sky Martial Height’s freshman competition, this guy was only a common genius ranked forty-ninth?

Until he went to Koroya, and whether he gained something from the Slaughter Battlefield that tempered him, he skyrocketed uncontrollably from there.

He directly overwhelmed everyone, becoming the school’s first genius to break through the Four Layer Heaven; after entering the Alien Beast Battlefield, he lay low for a month and then swept through the South invincibly.

Thinking of this, even Howard could not help but complain, “Damn, I always feel like this guy must be cheating.”

Carol Koch, standing nearby, gave a faint smile at these words, “Junior Lambert, have an open mind. Everyone has their own path; we don’t need to compare ourselves with Junior Clark.”

With a rugged face and a physique as large as a giant, Howard sighed deeply, “Senior Keller, I’m not envious of Jack Clark’s achievements, but there are some things you won’t understand.”

Thinking of the battle he and Jack Clark had agreed upon, Howard felt a headache coming on. How was he to fight…?

Forget it, let’s postpone this battle, he thought. He’d wait until he broke through to king-level.

But by then, that guy might have already achieved a breakthrough to Heavenly King. I, as a king-level, should be able to withstand two moves from that monster… right?

Although he had only reached a little over fifteen hundred meters on the Road to Becoming a God, Howard was still full of confidence in himself.

He was a genius who had faced death twenty-nine times, breaking limits time and again, endowed with Innate Divine Strength, destined in this life to ascend the throne.

Moreover, he had gained much this time, two strands of World Origin, plus that Demon Bronze Statue from Ancient Civilization.

As long as he could cultivate the Heavenly Evil Demon Manual to forge the Devil’s Battle Body and achieve the third physique transformation breakthrough to the Seventh Layer, king-level was not hopeless.

While everyone’s attention was focused on the Eye of Heaven Observation, in the distance, towards the First Channel Base, a terrifying aura erupted.

A raging wind howled, Thunder boomed, and a Silver Vortex a kilometer high shook as if a colossal creature was squeezing through from the other side.

The sudden change drew everyone’s attention; they turned to look, only to see the horizon being engulfed by boundless darkness, turning into rolling dark clouds surging this way.

In the blink of an eye, the black cloud surged over like a tidal wave, blotting out the sky and sun.

Soon after, a terrifying pressure, one that surpassed that of king-level, descended.

Boom! The Earth shook in an instant, and cracks spread across the ground; everyone involuntarily radiated a defiant aura to resist.

But under that dreadful pressure, these geniuses who hadn’t even achieved a high-order breakthrough were powerless to contend; the will and aura they had gathered instantly dispersed.

Just as everyone was shocked and about to be pressed to the ground by the overwhelming force, that oppressive aura suddenly vanished.

The dark clouds in the sky churned and spun, forming a hundred-meter Hollow, and a beam of golden sunlight pierced through it, with two figures appearing within the beam.

One of them was Lori Joyner, the king-level who had left earlier, and the other was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, his temples streaked with white, exuding a sense of vicissitudes.

Looking down at the puzzled crowd below, Lori stated, “No need to be alarmed; this is the Nether Heavenly King. He heard that our Human Race had several king-level genius appearances, so he came to have a look.”

Great, you show up and unleash such a terrifying force, acting like you’re about to Destroy Heaven and Earth, and we’re supposed to stay calm?

Of course, that was just an internal gripe. Outwardly, they all showed respectful faces, “We’ve seen the great Nether Heavenly King.”

Looking down upon them, the middle-aged man’s voice held the weight of ages, “Don’t be constrained, everyone. Proceed as if I am not here.”

As the Nether Heavenly King and Lori approached the Eye of Heaven Observation, Marcellus Larry spoke with some excitement, “Brother Chen, the Emperor’s Gate has appeared.”

“Is that the Emperor’s Gate?” The Nether Heavenly King looked at the black gate phantom in the Eye of Heaven Observation.

Marcellus nodded, “Yes, when that youngster reached over eight thousand meters, it triggered the Emperor’s Gate.”

“He has actually reached over eight thousand meters already.” The Nether Heavenly King’s figure flashed, appearing before the Eye of Heaven Observation, his gaze falling on Jack Clark’s advancing silhouette.

After a long while, the Nether Heavenly King spoke with amazement, “Indeed, there is someone who can surpass twenty times the base Soul Strength before the Nine Layers Heaven.”

As one of those who had entered the relic in the past, walked the Road to Godhood, and received the Inheritance, the Nether Heavenly King and others were actually not unfamiliar with this Ruins Continent.

Including the legendary gate standing at the end of the Divine Road, a gate upon opening which one could become a Monarch.

Because inside, there was the Monarch Inheritance of the Ancient Civilization.

Unfortunately, obtaining the Monarch Inheritance was extremely difficult; just to step onto the Soul’s Road required a base soul strength of five times.
