Chapter 275: Ranked First
There are many roads leading to Gold, but once chosen, there's no turning back; you can only race down one path.
The tragedy is that many roads to Gold are short. You might find out it's a dead end after reaching Gold.
Gao Xuan was so weak in his previous life because he chose the wrong path when advancing to Gold.
At that time, he didn't think much, he just felt that advancing to Gold was already an immense stroke of luck.
As a result, he quickly reached a dead end on that path. In his entire life, he only reached Level 18 Gold.
You should know that the top-tier Gold can reach Level 22. Beyond Level 22 is the domain of the Divine.
Reborn, Gao Xuan corrected his past mistakes.
He accidentally absorbed the Undying Golden Cicada, giving him a body as strong as Gold at the Silver Sword Hero level.
Gao Xuan believes that continuing on his current path, he will inevitably become the top-tier Golden Powerhouse.
The problem is, his enemies aren't humans. They are extremely powerful Deities in the cosmos.
No amount of Power can satisfy Gao Xuan.
As the old saying goes, in this cosmos, there is no strongest, only stronger.
The destruction in his past life cast a deep shadow in Gao Xuan's heart, leaving him with a strong sense of crisis.
As long as there's a chance, he hopes to become even stronger. His pursuit of powerful force is extremely Greedy, without limit.
By chance, he acquired the cover of the Book of All-Knowing, and Gao Xuan decided it would be best to first obtain the Book of All-Knowing to plan the best path for himself.
Gao Xuan found the whereabouts of the Book of All-Knowing, and he was in a very good mood.
He went to bed and held the pleasantly sleeping Helen, sharing his joy with her.
Helen didn't know why Gao Xuan was happy, she could only sense Gao Xuan's excitement and fervor.
The next day, Gao Xuan received a notification from Hercules, that because they had to wait for Talos, the Sea Dragon Star operation would be delayed by ten days.
Gao Xuan didn't mind; after all, the Divine King Palace had great food, lodging, and entertainment. He wouldn't get tired of staying for a year or so.
He had never been to Sea Emperor Star before, so he took the opportunity to explore everywhere on Sea Emperor Star.
As the absolute center of the Sea Emperor Star Realm, Sea Emperor Star is extremely prosperous, surpassing Taurus in all aspects such as economy and culture.
The most notable are the many cities named after ancient mythology, such as Odin City, Kun Gunir City, City of the Golden Apple, Trojan City, etc.
These cities have long histories and rich cultural deposits, distinctly different from mainstream Huaxia culture, carrying an Exotic charm.
The tourism industry on Sea Emperor Star is also very developed, being extremely famous in the Alliance.
After touring for a few days, Gao Xuan believes that Sea Emperor Star is indeed excellent.
No wonder the people of the Sea Emperor Star Realm look down on the Twelve Star Domain. In comparison, the Twelve Star Domain is a completely modern city, overly commercialized, lacking cultural and historical significance.
This stuff really isn't just about money.
Besides, Sea Emperor Star's economy is more prosperous. The city construction is also more beautiful. Of course, there's still a gap when compared to the Central Star Realm.
This gap is all-encompassing, just like the gap between the Twelve Star Domain and the Sea Emperor Star Realm.
With Helen accompanying him, Gao Xuan ate when he wanted and walked where he wished.
No need to make any plans, nor did he have any specific goals.
The bustling city and beautiful scenery, everyone is part of the city, forming a peaceful and tranquil life.
This kind of easygoing leisurely life is precisely what Gao Xuan likes.
Unfortunately, such a life requires strong martial support.
Humans have barely maintained it for three thousand years, and society is already on the brink of collapse.
There are many complex reasons for this. Not even the wisest Sages can explain clearly.
Gao Xuan doesn't have such high wisdom, he only knows one thing: for humans to survive, they must strive hard, struggle, and fight.
Besides, there's no other way.
Within the Sea Emperor Star Realm, Sea Dragon Star had already fallen into chaos.
The beautiful, serene life on Sea Emperor Star is merely the last glow of human civilization.
Helen certainly doesn't have Gao Xuan's realization, with Gao Xuan around, these ordinary sights look particularly beautiful.
After a few days, Helen was uncommonly happy from playing. The two also left their traces on the bedsheets at various major hotels, essentially marking their presence.
Talos hadn't arrived yet, but the annual meeting at the Moisture Hall did.
Gao Xuan accompanied Helen around the city, all the while using the Six-winged Celestial Cicada to connect to the Dark Web.
The Six-winged Celestial Cicada transformed Gao Xuan's consciousness into the Seventh Sage, connecting to the Moisture Hall through a specific Dark Web link.
A black dome, Bronze Pillars, Black Gold Floor Tiles. The Thrones of the Twelve Sages are arranged around.
At this moment, the other nine Sages had already arrived.
As soon as Gao Xuan appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the other nine Sages.
The nine Sages were extraordinarily interested in this Seventh Sage who suddenly appeared.
Over the past year, all the Sages had tried every means to investigate the identity of the Seventh Sage but to no avail.
The vast Dark Web couldn't search for any information about the Seventh Sage.
Today, they finally met this Seventh Sage.
Unfortunately, wearing the Sage Robe, the Seventh Sage blocked all personal biological features, and they could only see the black robe, Bronze Mask. They couldn't even see the Seventh Sage's eyes.
Nuwa stood at the center of the Great Hall, smilingly looking at the numerous Sages.
The Sages were all wearing Sage Robes and Bronze Masks. This could block others' prying. But it couldn't block her gaze.
In Nuwa's eyes, all the Sages were transparent data. Of course, this data only simulated their personas. The data image wasn't of much significance.
