139: Chapter 139 The Crown of Evolution, End of the Three-Front War

This conflict had come to an end. The three parties—the Demon Alliance, the Demon Race, and the Evil Path—all wore grim expressions, unable to speak.

Before they arrived, they had been a mighty force, numbering over a million in total. Now, fewer than fifty remained. How tragic was that?

"Do what you need to do. I don't need to remind you again, do I?"

Li Taiyang stepped forward and, during the moment of deepest silence, dealt them a verbal blow with the coldest of voices.

Defeat in war naturally meant signing treaties, along with paying reparations and ceding territory; this time was no exception.

After a moment of silence, they began to communicate.

"..."

In the Secret Realm.

The victors continued to scavenge for resources within the Secret Realm, distributing what they each needed.

"Thump!"

Not long after, Chen Xing completely refined the nine-colored crystal, bringing about a brand-new change to the crown.

The crown of the King of Light had transformed from what originally looked like a bulky headpiece into a divine ring floating behind him.

As long as the divine ring was present, without Chen Xing needing to do anything intentionally, Battle Techniques like the Five Elements Body Refining Art and the Secret Tome of Light would operate on their own.

In other words, it had gone from manual to automatic.

"It changed? Old Chen, are you about to become a Buddha?" Qin Feng looked curious and poked the ring with his finger.

"What kind of effect does it have after evolving?" Su He asked.

Chen Xing waved his hand, tossing out a Chaotic Heavenly Light the size of an egg, which flew off into the distance.

"Boom!"

A mountain range, spanning dozens of miles, was completely razed to the ground—even more terrifying than a nuclear bomb.

"This... isn't this your ultimate killing Move? How did you conjure it up instantly?" Chu Li was dumbfounded.

"I've been researching this for the past year, and I've finally mastered it," Chen Xing smiled slightly.

Chaotic Heavenly Light was his trump card Move; although it possessed immense destructive power, it also had one fatal flaw.

That was, it required time to synthesize.

Every time he fought, Chen Xing had to activate his Domain or other Innate Divine Abilities to complete the Fusion, otherwise, he would be interrupted by his opponent.

Actually, this was fine; at first, Chen Xing didn't think much of it. After all, it was a big Move—it had power, so naturally, it required time to unleash.

But it wasn't until he faced three Immortal God-level powerhouses, including Teacher Han Lingxi, that he realized they could all forcibly interrupt the Fusion.

Such a technique exceeded the realm of the mundane.

So, after that, Chen Xing practiced desperately, trying to solve the problem of the Fusion time.

Hard work pays off; in the end, Chen Xing really did master it. He could quickly synthesize small Chaotic Heavenly Lights, then use the [small] ones to stall, and subsequently synthesize the [large] ones.

"Awesome, this Natal Treasure actually has this kind of effect after evolving!" Chen Xing was startled in his heart.

The effect of the Ring of Light (after the crown evolved) wasn't just as simple as becoming automatic.

Chen Xing discovered that the power he unleashed consumed thirty percent less than usual.

In other words, the Ring of Light could reduce his consumption of power without reducing the power of his Battle Techniques in the slightest!

"Damn, how is this any different from cheating?" Qin Feng was dumbfounded.

"Reducing power consumption—doesn't that mean that while the divine ring is active, you can even use your Divine Abilities multiple times?" Su He gasped.

The crowd listened with hearts pounding. Goodness gracious, just how strong would this be?

The previous Chen Xing was already terrifying enough. Having just had an Epiphany in battle, and now his Natal Treasure had evolved—was he still at the same S-rank as them?

"He hasn't reached the level of Senior Hua Zizai, has he?" someone couldn't help but say.

"That's really not certain. How powerful is Hua Zizai? The number one person in ten thousand years."

"Then I think him entering the top three shouldn't be a problem."

"..."

"If the consumption could be reduced even more, say by fifty percent, I reckon it really would be possible!" Chen Xing's lips curled upward, responding to Su He's words.

As expected, the path the teacher pointed out was correct.

However, for a Natal Treasure to advance, it was truly too difficult, and not just in terms of Materials.

What is a Natal Treasure?

Actually, the emphasis isn't on [Treasure], but on the first two characters: [Natal].

It is born with the Ability User themselves, connected to everything, including the power of the Origin. To ascend, one must also be sufficiently formidable oneself.

Otherwise, with the wealth of these S-rank and A-rank family descendants, how could their Old Ancestors not help them advance?

In the end, it still comes down to oneself.

"This time, I shouldn't be the only one who has improved, right?" Chen Xing retracted the halo.

"Of course, let me show you my new Tyrant Body!" Qin Feng rolled up his sleeves, and purple radiance flickered on his body.

Generally speaking, Ability Users would choose green, representing [Life], for their second path to compensate for defects.

For example, Chu Zhen's green lightning, Chu Li's green fire, and Su He's star, which served as life fuel.

And at this time, when the shortcomings were no longer obvious, people would pursue [High Damage] or [High Mobility].

Purple often represents [Destruction].

"Destruction Tyrant Body, you've actually completely mastered it?" Chen Xing was surprised.

"Of course. You borrowed the power of the Main God to sublimate your Natal Treasure, so I borrowed the power of the Main God to master another power. Isn't that just right?" Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.

Chen Xing smiled slightly. This kind of Opportunity was rare and could not be sought; the effect was naturally astonishing.

Chu Li had mastered the third flame, which was the purple Destruction Fire.

Su He had cultivated the fourth star—a neutron star; this type of celestial body was compressed and extremely terrifying.

Everyone had their own gains, and at the same time, they had comprehended new Concepts in life-and-death battles, completing self-Breakthroughs, which was extraordinary.

...

Several days later, the war in the Domain of God also ended.

The crowd waited nervously for news, not daring to breathe too deeply.

"It's over, we won!"

When the declaration of victory was released, the world erupted in cheers.

On all three battlefronts, they had actually won!

"Won... as long as they're alive." Chen Xing received the news that both Ye Jianxing and Yue Shanhai were still alive; this was the best news.

"Haha, I said it! They are so strong, how could they possibly fall?" Qin Feng slapped his thigh and happily hugged Chen Xing.

"What the hell? Miss Lin is right there." Chen Xing paused, pointing at Lin Qingyao, who was not far away.

"Damn it, can't I even give you a hug? What are you being shy for, you big man? Can't I be happy?" Qin Feng glared and punched him on the shoulder.

Chen Xing laughed out loud and said, "Whatever."

Qin Feng muttered that he was no fun, then ran over to Lin Qingyao and hugged her.

"What are you doing?" Lin Qingyao was stunned.

"I'm happy." Qin Feng chuckled.

"..." Lin Qingyao was speechless.

Chen Xing glanced at them, then turned to find Han Lingxi, intending to communicate with the Domain of God to speak with Teacher Ye and let him know they were safe.

"Coming to find a teacher, but not reporting your safety to me—you're thinking about other teachers instead?" Han Lingxi scolded with a smile.

"Uh... Teacher is an Immortal God, nothing will happen to him, so naturally, I don't need to worry." Chen Xing said.

"Alright, I'll go communicate with the higher-ups. You two chat first."

"..."
