Eternal Time and Space

Chapter 10: Stellar Divine Powers Appear in Succession, Human and Treasure Unite, Heaven's Will

The sounds of wind and thunder were deafening; the howling winds were like the roar of ten thousand beasts; the exploding thunder was like the collapse of a pillar of heaven; the surging flood was like the ocean overflowing; and the burning flames were like the eruption of a furnace at the earth's core.

The power of the four elements intertwined, transforming into a chaotic, raging torrent that swept towards Zi Chen.

Zi Chen chuckled softly, and the Milky Way axis unfolded once more, with the sun, moon, and two stars in the scroll lighting up simultaneously.

The light of the Sun and the Moon flew out from the scroll, intertwining and swirling in the void. The true fire of the Sun and the true water of the Moon merged, and the extremes of Yang and Yin converged, transforming into a huge Tai Chi Yin-Yang diagram. The black and white light flowed endlessly, like a giant city, blocking all the raging waves of wind, thunder, water and fire.

The wind blades slashed into the Yin-Yang diagram, only to be completely worn away by the power of Yin and Yang; the lightning bolts struck, but were deflected by the rotating power of the Tai Chi diagram; the water and fire surged forth, but were absorbed and transformed by the swallowing power of the Yin-Yang diagram.

The Tai Chi symbol remained unmoved amidst the raging tide, slowly rotating and turning all attacks into nothingness.

Cangtian's expression finally changed slightly; a hint of solemnity could be faintly seen in his blurred face.

Cangtian clasped his hands together, and the Heavenly Mirror suddenly trembled. The light and shadow of the sun, moon and stars in the mirror lit up at the same time. A great sun rose from the mirror, followed closely by a bright moon, and countless stars circled around it, transforming into a miniature sea of ​​stars, which poured out from the Heavenly Mirror and crushed towards Zi Chen.

This attack was far more powerful than the previous wind, thunder, water, and fire. The power of the sun, moon, and stars converged in one place, almost equivalent to smashing a small section of the sky down.

The sound of the stars turning rumbled, like countless giant millstones turning at the same time, trying to grind everything in the world into dust.

Zi Chen looked at the overwhelming sea of ​​stars and flicked his finger.

The Milky Way axis was fully unfurled, the scroll stretching across the heavens and earth for tens of thousands of miles, with the sun, moon, stars, the Purple Star, the Big Dipper, and the Milky Way nebula all lit up.

The Big Dipper flew out again, transforming into a divine sword that slashed at the Azure Heaven Sword; the Southern Dipper followed closely behind, flying out of the scroll and transforming into a silver-white celestial robe around Zi Chen. Six starlight shone on the celestial robe: Tianfu, Tianliang, Tianji, Tiantong, Tianxiang, and Qisha. The power of the six stars intertwined to form a starlight barrier, blocking all attacks from Zi Chen.

Immediately afterwards, Venus lit up.

A soaring sword beam slashed out from the starlight, its platinum-gold light dazzling to the extreme, like an inverted Milky Way, cutting towards the sun, moon, and stars emerging from the Heavenly Mirror.

Wherever the sword light passed, a smooth cut was slashed through the void, the edges of which sparkled with starlight and took a long time to heal.

Mars lit up.

A sea of ​​crimson fire blazed with intense heat, its flames sweeping across the heavens and earth, engulfing all the remnants of wind, thunder, water, and fire that had surged forth from the heavens.

Crimson flames intertwined with platinum sword light, and a murderous aura soared into the sky, filling the world with a chilling atmosphere.

Morning Star lit up.

Endless black water surged from the painting, transforming into a vast ocean that blotted out the sky and swept towards the heavens.

The black water contains the purest Yin energy, which devours even the light of day and freezes the void wherever it passes.

In Zi Chen's hands, the Milky Way Axis evolved into countless supernatural powers.

The Big Dipper is the sword, the Southern Dipper is the garment, Venus is the master of killing, Mars is the master of war, and Mercury is the master of water. Each of the five planets has its own function and purpose. Countless unnamed small stars fly out of the scroll, turning into streaks of meteors, trailing long star tails, and bombarding the sky.

The sound of meteors piercing the sky was sharp and shrill, like a volley of arrows, densely streaking across the heavens and turning the entire sky a silvery white.

The heavens finally changed their expression; they realized they were being suppressed.

The sun, moon, and stars of the Heavenly Mirror were blocked by the Taiji Diagram, the Azure Heaven Sword was entangled by the Big Dipper Divine Sword, and the wind, thunder, water, and fire were swallowed up by Mars. Countless meteors poured down like a torrential rain, and the Southern Dipper Heavenly Robe protected Zi Chen completely.

Although the Milky Way Axis is only an acquired treasure, it has been forged with the essence of countless stars and the bodies of countless stars, forming a star sea world of its own. Its origin is so strong and its power so vast that it is in no way inferior to top-level innate spiritual treasures, and in some aspects it is even superior.

Zi Chen stood in the center of the starry sea, his white robes fluttering in the starlight. His face was as calm as a still pool. Although Cang Tian's strength was not weak, it was not worth him using two innate treasures. The Milky Way Axis was enough.

The heavens were forced to retreat by the meteor shower. The protective aura of the celestial mirror trembled violently under the bombardment of the meteors. Each meteor crashed down with a deafening roar, and the protective aura was covered with cracks, its light flickering erratically.

The Big Dipper Divine Sword tightly bound the Azure Sky Sword. The seven stars rotated, and the sword light surged like a tide. Each sword strike was faster and heavier than the last, and the Azure Sky Sword's sword light was compressed smaller and smaller until it was almost completely suppressed.

Anger finally surfaced in the eyes of the heavens.

He is Heaven, a primordial deity born of the Heavenly Dao, one of the Four Heavens, and one of the highest-ranking beings in this primordial world. Yet now he is being suppressed and beaten by an acquired object, by someone who appeared out of nowhere. He cannot bear this humiliation.

Cangtian took a deep breath, and his figure suddenly dissipated, transforming into a ball of azure light that merged into the Heavenly Mirror.

Humans and treasures are one.

After merging with the heavens, the Heavenly Mirror's energy surged dramatically. The twelve lines on the mirror surface lit up simultaneously, their brilliance reaching its peak, illuminating the surrounding hundreds of thousands of miles. The mirror trembled, and an immense and unparalleled will descended from within it.

This is providence.

The will of Heaven is all-encompassing and supreme.

This is the authority bestowed upon Heaven by the Way of Heaven; it is the embodiment of the concept of "Heaven".

The moment the will of Heaven descended, everything in the world stood still.

The wind stopped, the clouds dispersed, and even the movement of the stars seemed to pause for a moment.

With a single sweep, Heaven's Will shattered all the countless meteors that Zi Chen had created from the Milky Way axis. Before Heaven's Will, the meteors were like paper, unable to even struggle before turning into stardust and dissipating into the void.

The will of Heaven swept across once more, extinguishing the sea of ​​fire surging from Mars, evaporating the black water gushing from Mercury, breaking the sword beam unleashed by Venus, and causing the celestial garment formed by the six stars of the Southern Dipper to tremble violently, almost torn apart.

As the heavens swept across the land for the third time, the divine sword formed from the Big Dipper let out a mournful cry. The seven stars dimmed simultaneously, and cracks spread across the blade, nearly shattering on the spot.

The will of Heaven is like a knife, cutting down all things.

The voice of Heaven emanated from the Heavenly Mirror, deep and majestic, as if the heavens themselves were speaking: "Under the will of Heaven, all are but ants."

Zi Chen looked at the sweeping beams of divine will, but was not surprised; on the contrary, he was delighted.

"The will of Heaven?" Zi Chen said softly, a hint of mockery in his smile. "You're merely a part of Heaven, yet you dare to claim it as the will of Heaven?"

The Milky Way expanded in all directions, and everything in the painting—the sun, moon, stars, the Big Dipper, the Milky Way nebula—came to life at this moment. Starlight poured out of the painting, condensing into a complete sea of ​​stars.

The stars shift and the light surges.

A vast starry world was born outside Zi Chen.
