NOVEL NEXT Chapter 101: Golden Divine Pattern!
Inside the Secret Realm.
The moment the three stepped into the fourth layer, they simultaneously froze...
No mechanical prompt, no trial rules explained, just a suffocating silence.
"What is this...?"
Before Veronica's words were finished, the ground suddenly shook violently!
"Boom——"
Under their shocked gaze, a colossal willow tree that seemed to reach the heavens erupted from the ground.
Its trunk was like a pillar supporting the sky, straight into the clouds.
Except for a few green branches, all others were scorched.
This is...
Gu Xing's pupils shrank, and he immediately checked its information.
[World Tree]
[Level: ???]
[Talent: ???]
[Attributes: ???]
[Current Status: Dying]
[Introduction: The supreme existence accompanying the first descent of the Alternate Space, witnessing the birth and extinction of countless civilizations]
....
At the instant he saw this introduction, Gu Xing realized...
The most important thing in the Ascension Realm is this World Tree!
The World Tree existed since the initial descent of the Alternate Space...
It must know why the Human Race cannot break through to Monarch Level!
Seeing this, Veronica and Cecilia almost simultaneously took out a crystal radiating a mysterious light from their bosoms.
[Memory Crystal Stone]
[Quality: Legend]
[Function: Record images]
Seeing the Memory Crystal Stone appear in their hands, Gu Xing froze in place.
Wait!
Why does he have nothing?!
The Council and Holy See were obviously well-prepared, but he...?
Little did he know, when Lei Zhan saw him, he planned to help Qin Chuxue rise to King Level, forgetting to even give him a small thing like a Memory Crystal Stone.
Gu Xing's lips twitched.
Though he didn't have a Memory Crystal Stone...
He took out his phone from the Beast Taming Space.
This should work too.
After Liu Li recorded the footage well beside him, Gu Xing, Veronica, and Cecilia exchanged nods and stepped forward.
"Rustle—"
The few green branches of the World Tree suddenly swayed gently, sweeping around the three as if probing.
A moment later, an ethereal voice arose:
"I've finally waited for you... the race favored by the Alternate Space."
???
Favored?
The three simultaneously showed bewildered expressions.
The Human Race can't even break through to Monarch Level, where does the favor come from?
As if sensing their confusion, the World Tree's branches quivered slightly, and three dazzling golden light shadows slowly appeared in the void.
"These are called Divine Patterns, the keys to a higher dimension."
"Only races that obtain Divine Patterns can give birth to existences beyond Monarch Level."
Gu Xing's gaze fell upon the golden Divine Pattern shadows in the sky.
He discovered...
Among these, his magic patterns in the Beast Taming Space were not the same thing?
It's just that...
One is dazzling gold and the other is deep black!
"The reason you are said to be the race favored by the Alternate Space is that... other top races in the Alternate Space only possess a single Divine Pattern, whereas the Human Race..."
"Possesses all three!"
Upon hearing the number "three," Gu Xing was startled.
Three times more than other races!
This number indeed fits the term "favored," but the greater doubt then surged in his heart.
If that's the case, why hasn't the Human Race obtained even one Divine Pattern to this day?
Perhaps able to see the thoughts in his heart, the World Tree continued:
"The only way to obtain Divine Patterns is to pass the corresponding Myth Level Secret Realm."
"You have passed the trial of the Ascension Realm; seven days later, the first Divine Secret Realm will open."
"But remember, not only can alien races without Divine Patterns participate, but those strong races who already possess them will covet..."
"This is the Human Race's only chance to obtain the first Divine Pattern."
"The first Divine Secret Realm's level restriction is at the Extraordinary Tier. Though challenging, I believe you can do it."
When saying this, Gu Xing felt...
It seemed that the World Tree was speaking directly to him!
After answering all questions, those scorched branches suddenly intertwined into a Teleportation Array.
"Finally, I hope you can unite all powers to defeat the Demon Race!"
With a gentle glow, the three had returned to the initial plaza.
A breeze brushed past, and Gu Xing found a green willow leaf in his hand unbeknownst to him.
Seizing the moment unnoticed by anyone, he promptly stored it in his Beast Taming Space.
"Boom—"
A moment later, three Monarch Level pressures simultaneously descended upon the plaza.
Lei Zhan stood in mid-air, his gaze sweeping over the two council members of the Council and Holy See.
"Iron Wall" Tucker from the Council's ninth seat, and "Crimson Duke" Walter from the Blood-colored Church's Twelve Knights.
They are tough opponents...
The three exchanged a glance and instantly reached a consensus.
For now, it's best if there is no internal conflict within the Human Race.
"Each takes their own people, no objections?" Lei Zhan broke the silence first.
Tucker crossed his arms and nodded, while Walter elegantly performed a knight's salute to express agreement.
Their strengths were evenly matched; all had truly reached Monarch Level by slaying the Demon Race!
If conflict arose, none would benefit.
Taking their own people away was clearly the best solution.
In the plaza.
Veronica saw the scene and knew it was time for farewells.
She waved at Gu Xing, "Monster, see you in seven days!"
To have the Verlo Family's eldest daughter acknowledge his monstrous strength, over the years...
He was the only one!
However, hearing that title, Gu Xing's forehead immediately sprouted a few black lines.
Monster... how unpleasant!
On the other side, Cecilia looked at Gu Xing with a hint of fear in her eyes.
After all, the Blood Prince dared not make a move in front of Gu Xing!
"Let's go!"
Lei Zhan's large hand heavily clapped Gu Xing's shoulder, and Monarch Level spiritual power burst forth.
"Boom!"
The two transformed into streams of light, soaring into the clouds, rushing towards the Longxia base in the City of Chaos.
At this moment, Lei Zhan's heart was itching with excitement...
Clearing the Ascension Realm was already a guaranteed matter.
But what happened inside the Secret Realm?
Only they knew!
...
In the City of Chaos.
The courtyard previously destroyed by Qing Shuang had been restored.
Qing Shuang leaned against the window, her azure hair gently swaying in the breeze.
Sensing the Monarch Level aura sweeping across the sky, her blue eyes slightly narrowed...
The Secret Realm had concluded!
The human who deceived Fei Yue's feelings... should appear now.
Her gaze shifted to her sister facing the wall, and she slowly spoke:
"Your boyfriend seems to have emerged. Do you want to find him?"
Though Qing Shuang's tone was calm, Fei Yue knew it was all a façade.
Without hesitation, she shook her head emphatically.
"Good!"
Upon hearing those words, Fei Yue instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, her heart was again tense.
"Though I don't know who that human is... we will see him soon enough!"
"If you dare to tip him off..."
The black Ghost Pattern flashed swiftly across Qing Shuang's face.
Fei Yue's body shrank, her head shaking like a rattle.
She originally wanted to notify Gu Xing, thinking she might have caused him major trouble.
But seeing her sister's current state...
She immediately abandoned that thought!
If she left now, she had no doubt her sister would take righteous action by breaking her legs!
