779: Chapter 780 Mysterious Scripture

Above the Nine Heavens, amidst swirling Spiritual Qi, a magnificent and colossal palace complex floated within the clouds and mist.

The palaces here were vast and resplendent, adorned everywhere with glittering glazed gems and gold. It was a Realm of jade towers and celestial pavilions; every palace was carved from jade, luxurious and magnificent, dreamlike and illusory.

Immortal Beasts and strange creatures, rare flowers and Immortal Plants were everywhere. There were sky ladders constructed from rainbows, palaces descending into the clouds, and stairs piled high with white jade.

At this moment, the Heavenly Court was bustling with activity, with waves of incredibly powerful auras moving about.

Experts who were usually rarely seen had all revealed their figures, gathered here within this Heavenly Court.

There were Divine Beings with golden wings on their backs, tall and burly Ancient Kings, and even golden Dragons with nine claws; experts from all races of the Universe had gathered here at this moment.

At the plaza of the Heavenly Court, a colossal altar was placed. Around the altar stood nine massive stone pillars, each carved with a lifelike Immortal Beast, filled with memories.

The entire altar was carved from white jade Immortal Stone, seamless and integrated. Upon the altar sat a stone table, and on the stone table rested a stone box.

The stone box was surrounded by offerings. These offerings were incredibly precious, consisting entirely of semi-divine herbs, as well as Immortal Beasts and animals of the eleventh Realm—all offerings for the heavens.

The area around the altar was crowded with living beings. At the very front were the experts of the Quasi-Emperor Realm from various factions, the most powerful group of existences in this Universe.

The number of Quasi-Emperor Realm experts gathered here was not small; there were experts from the Six Great Powers, as well as those from the myriad races of the Universe, numbering at least a thousand.

This was definitely a terrifying number; it was estimated that more than half of the Universe's experts had gathered here. Such a terrifying scale was truly astonishing.

Behind these Quasi-Emperor Realm experts were a group of the most outstanding Great Saint Realm Martial Artists. They were the most excellent existences within each faction, each possessing extraordinary natural talent and infinite potential.

The number of these Great Saint Realm Martial Artists was also large, reaching a terrifying hundred thousand. Like the Quasi-Emperor Realm Martial Artists, they were all gathered around the altar.

A thousand Quasi-Emperor Realm experts and a hundred thousand Great Saint Realm experts were all gazing from afar at the six figures upon the altar.

These six individuals were the leaders of the Six Great Powers in the Universe: the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, the Divine Temple, the Land of Ultimate Bliss and Enchantment, the Ten Thousand Demons Palace, and the Extreme Dao Emperor Sect. They were also the six most powerful people in the Universe.

Among them, after the death of the Extreme Dao Emperor Sect's Dao Lord, they had re-elected a new Dao Lord, who was the disciple of the previous Dao Lord.

After the Underworld's Master went missing, the previous Master of the Underworld had crawled out of the coffin to represent the Underworld at this grand event.

The leaders of the Six Great Powers were positioned in six directions, gathered on the altar. Each one of them possessed extraordinary strength and was terrifyingly powerful, inspiring awe in others.

"Everyone, the auspicious time has arrived. It is time to open this stone box and see the Opportunity for transcendence inside."

Emperor Lord looked up at the sky and then spoke to the crowd.

"Indeed!"

The others nodded one after another upon hearing this, then took out a bone fragment that looked very special from their Storage Rings.

This bone fragment was very unique. No one knew what creature's bone it was refined from, but it was incredibly sturdy. Even a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert holding an Extremity Emperor Weapon would find it difficult to leave a mark on it.

The six people took out their six bone fragments. Then, under the guidance of their magic power, the six fragments merged into a single whole in the sky.

It formed a circular bone piece, inscribed with strange insect-like scripts, which seemed not to be a product of this era.

This circular bone piece was the key to the stone box. For some unknown reason, it had been shattered into six pieces and then excavated by the Six Great Powers from a mysterious ruin.

Only this key could open that stone box; otherwise, even if one obtained it, it would just be a display piece.

After merging together, the circular bone piece began to glow and then imprinted itself onto the stone box.

A mysterious rune appeared on the stone box, dense and packed, covering the entire box.

Immediately after, a very mysterious aura spread out from the stone box in all directions.

This aura was very mysterious, yet it revealed a strange Concept, looking extraordinary at first glance.

"The Opportunity for transcendence, the Opportunity for transcendence is about to be revealed. I wonder what this Opportunity actually is, and what it will be like?"

Many people gazed at the stone box with eager faces, their expressions filled with excitement, anticipating the appearance of the object inside.

"Could it be an Immortal Scripture? Or perhaps some precious supreme treasure that allows one to achieve a Breakthrough in Realm!"

"Who knows? Since ancient times, transcendence has only been a legend. Is there really anyone in the world who can transcend?"

"This aura looks extraordinary; it does not seem to be a mortal object!"

Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, the stone box slowly opened. A beam of light shot up into the sky, piercing straight into the Nine Heavens, stirring up the winds and clouds.

This light was blindingly bright, making it impossible for the crowd to look directly at it.

Across the myriad worlds, regardless of where one was, one could clearly feel the existence of this beam of light, as if it were right before their eyes, very clear.

"What is this? It is coming from the Heavenly Court. Is it that legendary Opportunity for transcendence?"

After seeing this beam of light coming from the Heavenly Court, everyone involuntarily revealed expressions of longing.

They did not have the qualifications to attend the ceremony in the Heavenly Court, but they did not expect that even outside the Heavenly Court, they would still have the chance to witness the dazzling light emitted by this grand event of transcendence.

"This light is too dazzling; it has actually reached here. This object of transcendence is truly extraordinary!"

Qin Xiao's true self, far away in the Beast Soul Star Region, was also startled by this commotion at this moment. He looked up at the sky, at that blinding light.

"I wonder what that Opportunity for transcendence actually is. It is truly intriguing!"

Qin Xiao muttered to himself. Things passed down from the immortal ancient era, things that even Immortal Kings would go crazy for, were definitely extraordinary. He wondered who would be able to obtain the resources inside.

Like Qin Xiao, there were not a few experts gazing at the sky. Although the Opportunity for transcendence was precious, it was inevitable that some experts remained unmoved, not attracted by the news released by the Heavenly Court.

After the beam of light appeared, a skeleton slowly floated up from the stone box. The skeleton was as white as jade, and no one knew what creature it was; it was very mysterious.

On this skeleton, unknown scriptures were inscribed, dense and packed, covering the entire skeleton.

As soon as these scriptures came into contact with the outside, they emitted a golden light, floating in the surroundings, forming a set of scriptures that were strange to the extreme, filled with a sense of mystery.
