A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 368

Chapter 368 Divine Realm

“Cough, cough! Damn it, where exactly am I?”

Chen Zian looked around at the countless Star Beasts swarming and rushing toward him. Instinctively, he swung his Immortal Sword. Each slash carried a terrifying sword aura that cut through large groups of Star Beasts.

Yet despite that, the endless waves of Star Beasts kept coming, which filled Chen Zian’s heart with despair.

Originally, he had been a minor cultivator in the Xuantian Realm. After struggling through countless trials, schemes, and fights along the path of cultivation, he finally broke through the chaos—only to find himself unable to advance to the Great Emperor stage within the Xuantian Realm.

To break through, he took a desperate gamble and entered God Burial Valley. Though extremely dangerous, fortunately, he managed to escape and successfully advanced to the Mortal World Immortal stage while still inside the valley.

Before he could even spread the news after leaving God Burial Valley, he ascended to the Xuanyuan Realm.

Then, in the Xuanyuan Realm, due to his Chaos Physique, he was accepted into the Chaos Holy Land as a disciple of the Holy Lord of Chaos. Having been stuck at the peak of Immortal Venerable for a long time, he planned to roam the Xuanyuan Realm, searching for an opportunity to break through to Immortal Emperor.

By chance, he arrived at Buzhou Mountain. Due to some accidents, he ended up staying with the Violet Thunderfinch Clan—only to be unexpectedly caught off guard by the clan leader, Zi You, who secretly harbored feelings for him.

Chen Zian couldn’t deny that he was moved. Although they weren’t of the same race, once someone reached a certain cultivation level, reproductive boundaries no longer mattered. Many races emerged from powerful beings who reproduced after reaching a certain height themselves.

What Chen Zian didn’t anticipate was that before he could respond to Zi You’s confession, he suddenly encountered the Ancient Star Road. The moment he approached, the Ancient Star Road sucked him in.

And now, this is what’s happening to him.

“The current situation is extremely unfavorable. Although I can handle the Star Beasts rushing in with my cultivation, I sense several other terrifyingly strong presences lurking in the shadows. If they come charging, I probably won’t stand a chance.”

Chen Zian thought to himself, then began considering how to escape with his life.

He had tried the way in before, but after entering, there was no way out. That meant he could only move forward, never backward.

But he didn’t know what awaited him ahead—it might be even worse than what he faced now.

“Still, I have no other choice. If I stay here, my immortal power will inevitably run out. There’s nothing worse than falling from grace. Besides, I’m still missing someone’s answer!”

Resigned, he made up his mind. The next second, Chen Zian’s immortal power erupted again as he charged deeper into the Ancient Star Road. Wherever he went, no matter if the Star Beasts were at the Immortal King or Immortal Venerable stage, none survived a single blow from Chen Zian.

After all, he possessed the Chaos Physique and was an outstanding prodigy who had rung the Chaos Bell eight times. It was only natural that he was a bit stronger. Given the current situation, unless an Immortal Emperor intervened, no one below that rank could defeat Chen Zian.

Deep within the Ancient Star Road, several figures stood calmly in midair, watching Chen Zian rush forward at high speed without a trace of sorrow over the countless fallen Star Beasts.

Star Beasts were creatures evolved from the Power of the Starry Sky, and their realms set them apart from ordinary star creatures. To them, the fallen were nothing more than cannon fodder—fewer or more dying made no difference.

“What? Are you all just going to stand by and watch this human clan member kill his way through the Ancient Star Road like this?”

A Mid-Stage Immortal Emperor Star Beast glanced at the other five Immortal Emperor-level Star Beasts around and said expressionlessly.

In response, the other five shook their heads.

“No rush. Although this opponent has a strong foundation, he is still only at the peak of Immortal Venerable. We are Immortal Emperors—if we act, it will take just a moment to kill him.”

Though an Immortal Emperor was only one realm above an Immortal Venerable, the jump at the late stage of a major realm meant their combat power increased exponentially. So, in their minds, though Chen Zian could slay a peak Immortal Venerable with a single sword stroke, compared to them, he still had much to learn.

Soon, despite being surrounded by countless Star Beasts, Chen Zian fought his way to the end of the Ancient Star Road. Seeing the exit of the Ancient Star Road materialize before him, his heart leapt with joy.

Sure enough, his guess was right—the world had an end. Although he didn’t know where the spatial passage ahead led, anywhere was better than remaining here to die.

Along the way, he had killed a conservative estimate of tens of millions of Star Beasts, and still, the waves kept coming. His Immortal Power was nearly half gone. If not for his deep foundation and the large number of immortal elixirs he carried to restore his strength, he would have been torn apart by Star Beasts long ago after running out of power.

Just as Chen Zian was about to reach the end of the Ancient Star Road and enter the passage to the Divine Realm, the six Immortal Emperor-level Star Beasts finally lost their patience. If they didn’t act now, he would escape.

Though they were Immortal Emperors, their nature bound them to remain inside the Ancient Star Road. They could not leave unless one of the Ancient Star Roads collapsed.

But just as they prepared to strike, they suddenly sensed something and stopped.

“I didn’t expect that one to make the first move. Seems like we don’t have to do anything,” said an Early Immortal Emperor Star Beast.

At her words, at the very moment Chen Zian was speeding ahead, it was as if he sensed something too—he suddenly halted and dodged swiftly to the right.

The instant Chen Zian dodged, a beam of light shot from straight ahead, narrowly missing him. It didn’t stop but instead instantly slaughtered a large group of Star Beasts behind him.

The Star Beasts, who had been ferociously relentless until moments ago, suddenly seemed to realize something was amiss. With terrified expressions, they scattered in all directions.

Chen Zian soon understood what had happened. A figure slowly materialized before him—a woman with delicate features, exuding kindness and warmth, yet her aura was terrifyingly powerful. With just one glance, Chen Zian immediately realized how far her power surpassed his own.

An Immortal Emperor! And one even more terrifying than his own Master!

His Master was a Late Stage Immortal Emperor, so someone more fearsome than him had to be an Immortal Emperor Pinnacle.

Thinking this, Chen Zian’s expression darkened considerably. It seemed highly likely that today he would meet his end here. But even so, he was determined to fight with all he had!

“Human, stop right there.”

The speaker was none other than the Lord of Star Beasts. As he finished speaking, he slowly extended a finger. Instantly, a surge of the Power of the Stars blasted out violently from within him, rushing straight toward Chen Zian.
