137: Chapter 137 Ancient War of Gods!

"Are you saying there might be a god at the end of this tunnel?"

"Not exactly."

Yarberna shook her head slightly, her silver hair fluttering in the spacetime light.

"It's more like the remnant soul of some fallen deity, or... a soul fragment sealed here."

"A soul fragment?" Lu Yin murmured, his pupils suddenly constricting.

But just as Lu Yin was about to say something else, a Spacetime Aberration lunged forward with a roar.

These monsters had distorted bodies, seemingly pieced together from countless broken spacetime fragments; even light warped wherever they passed.

"Deal with the trouble in front of us first!" Lu Yin barked, and the Three Legion Commanders struck simultaneously.

Kasa was the first to meet them, slamming his Black Flame Great Shield onto the ground to form a burning barrier.

The Spacetime Aberration's claws struck the shield, producing an ear-piercing sound of tearing spacetime.

"Destruction Storm!"

Yarberna swung her giant hammer, her violent power forming an all-consuming tornado that swept several aberrations into it.

The distorted monsters let out shrill roars within the storm as their bodies began to shatter inch by inch.

-658,956! -666,895! -654,654!

...

[Ding! You have killed a Spacetime Aberration. Experience points increased by 60,000 (-20%)!]

[Obtained loot: spacetime crystal, Void Dust, Silverglow Fragment!]

[...]

A series of notifications flashed by, pleasantly surprising Lu Yin; these aberrations could actually drop spacetime crystals.

He had already obtained the complete set of forging blueprints for the Spacetime Set within the Tower of Time.

The amount of spacetime materials required had increased exponentially.

And spacetime crystals were the core material for forging this equipment.

Right now, the materials he had were at most enough to craft a single piece.

Having gains meant having motivation.

"Keep moving forward."

Lu Yin said in a low voice, his gaze sharp as he looked deep into the tunnel while summoning all of his Death Soldier.

With the Three Legion Commanders leading the way, the death soldiers surged forward like a tide, clashing with the aberrations crawling out of the spacetime rifts.

The tunnel echoed with the roars of monsters and the clanging of weapons, the spacetime light becoming even more chaotic due to the fluctuations of battle.

The deeper they went, the more frequently the Spacetime Aberrations appeared, and their strength seemed to increase as well.

But Lu Yin's Death Legion was like an all-crushing torrent; wherever they passed, the Spacetime Aberrations were all turned into experience and materials.

[Ding! You have killed a Spacetime Aberration. Experience points increased by 65,000 (-20%)!]

[Obtained loot: spacetime crystal x2, Void Dust x3, Silverglow Fragment x5!]

[...]

The system notifications were almost continuous, and the spacetime materials in Lu Yin's bag accumulated rapidly.

Milian, Su Xiaoruan, and Ling Ying followed closely behind; they couldn't even find a chance to intervene.

This was the first time they had experienced clearing a Dungeon so easily.

The Spacetime Tunnel seemed endless as the group pushed forward, killing countless Spacetime Aberrations.

"The strength of these monsters seems to have exceeded Level 6."

"I expect there will be even stronger beings at the end of the tunnel."

Milian said, her brow furrowing slightly.

"Yeah, I know, but it's fine."

Lu Yin nodded in agreement, but his pace didn't slow in the slightest.

He was already used to fighting monsters above his level; if he were to fight monsters of the same level, he would actually feel uncomfortable.

The flowing light in the Spacetime Tunnel grew more dazzling, as if countless stars were circulating around them, with vague, broken images occasionally flashing by.

There were fallen divine realms, wailing creatures, and countless brilliant figures falling from the sky.

"These images... seem to be memory fragments of some god."

Yarberna stared at the fleeting scenes, her tone solemn.

Just then, a vortex like the one at the entrance appeared ahead in the tunnel.

They knew they had reached the end of the tunnel.

"Get ready."

Lu Yin glanced at the Three Women and then stepped straight into the vortex.

Milian and the others didn't hesitate for a moment, following closely behind Lu Yin.

The moment they passed through the spacetime vortex, an indescribable pressure washed over them.

Their vision suddenly opened up, and they were surprised to find themselves standing in the middle of a desolate plain.

The plain was vast and boundless, and the sky was an eerie purple.

Countless broken stars hung in the sky like frozen tears.

The earth was cracked, and the air was filled with an ancient and decaying aura.

Even more heart-pounding was an omnipresent, heavy pressure, as if invisible mountains were weighing down on everyone's hearts.

Looking up, the plain was strewn with countless massive beast skeletons that had endured for an unknown number of years.

"Is this... the end of the Spacetime Tunnel?"

Lu Yin looked around, his expression solemn.

"These skeletons... all seem to be the remains of divine beasts."

Yarberna crouched down, gently stroking a skull shimmering with golden light, a hint of reminiscence flashing in her eyes.

Just then, an earth-shaking roar suddenly came from the distance.

The entire plain shook in response, and even the broken stars in the sky seemed to tremble.

"Something is coming!" Ling Ying instantly spread her wings and took to the air, her pupils shrinking.

"Heavens... what is that?"

Everyone followed her gaze and saw a massive figure slowly galloping from the void at the end of the horizon.

It had a humanoid outline, but its size was comparable to a mountain, and it was surrounded by twisted spacetime turbulence.

And behind it was an army like a tide, charging along with it.

Just as Lu Yin and the others were on high alert, the space above their heads distorted again.

A swath of crimson, like a pouring river, collided violently with the massive figure.

Upon closer inspection, that crimson river was actually composed of hideous-looking demons.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the two torrents collided, the entire desolate plain felt as if a star of destruction had been dropped onto it.

The deafening explosions carried terrifying energy shockwaves, spreading madly in all directions in a circular pattern.

The ground shattered layer by layer like a fragile eggshell, kicking up dust that filled the sky.

Even the frozen, broken stars in the sky seemed to vibrate under the violent impact.

Lu Yin and the others watched the incoming airwaves and prepared to defend.

But they were surprised to find that these airwaves dissipated into nothingness the moment they drew near.

"Is this... an illusion?"

Su Xiaoruan, who had raised her shield, poked her head out and said blankly.

"No, it's not a simple illusion."

Spacetime radiance flowed in Yarberna's silver eyes as she pointed toward the center of the battlefield.

"This is real history branded by spacetime."

"We are currently standing in a time fault, witnessing the reenactment of the Ancient God War."

"The reenactment of the Ancient God War?"

Lu Yin also showed a shocked expression.
