Baby with Daoist Monarch System

The 461st Chapter really ignited!

She slowly raised her head, those eyes once blurred by tears now burned with an intensity fiercer than the Yu Kong Fire. She knew this hope was like a candle flickering in the wind, too faint to perceive, but as long as there’s a slightest chance, she would give everything to seize it. This was not only for Brother Xu Ran but also for the continuation bought with Yu Kong’s life, for the universe’s future hanging by a thread!

”Boom!”

At the perimeter of the Restricted Area, it was as if an invisible sky had been torn apart, emitting a deafening roar. This was not thunder, but the sound of countless powerful beings breaking barriers, surging into this ancient land! The tide of darkness had finally swept in!

The first to arrive were the ”Fallen”, creatures eroded by the Master of Nothingness’s power—they were once the prides and strong ones of various cosmic races, now left only with twisted shells and corrupted divine souls, eyes flickering with chaotic and bloodthirsty light. They spread like locusts, overwhelming the crumbled mountains at the edge of the Restricted Area, carrying a rancid stench. Following closely behind them were ”Void Hunters” from the depths of the void, their forms bizarre, silently shuttling through chaotic streams of Law, tearing space with ghost-like sharp claws, heading straight for the core!

Further away were some overwhelming and ancient presences, not completely eroded by the void, each with its own ambitions, either coveting the secrets deep within the Restricted Area or seeking profit amid this catastrophe. They were like beasts who had long lain dormant, finally revealing their fangs in this chaotic moment, stirring the already turbulent laws, plunging the entire Restricted Area into unprecedented turmoil!

Xu Qinghan struggled to stand up, but every bone in her body wailed, the backlash of Yu Kong burning life and the exhaustion of forcibly bursting with power made even a finger lift incredibly difficult. Yet, she couldn’t fall! Yu Kong’s Fire still flickered in her chest, that faint yet stubborn golden light silently reminding her, hope hadn’t extinguished!

Just then, streams of light swept swiftly from deep within the Restricted Area, these were cosmic powerhouses trapped in the Restricted Area or having arrived here for various reasons. They were once enemies, or indifferent passers-by, but at this moment, facing shared catastrophe, their gaze unanimously fell on Xu Qinghan!

”It’s her! She succeeded!” Someone exclaimed, voice filled with incredulous joy.

”The Guardian’s Fire... has truly ignited!” Another person said tremblingly, eyes full of reverence.

”Quick! Protect her! She’s our last hope!” An elder clad in ancient war armor roared, first charging towards Xu Qinghan’s direction, followed by equally powerful followers.

Xu Qinghan heard their voices, saw the complex and blazing look in their eyes. She understood, Yu Kong not only fought for her time, but also a life sacrificed to fully activate the Guardian’s legacy within her, making her the celebrated ”Fire Ignitor”, the new Guardian! This power, this duty, weighed heavily till she almost suffocated, yet simultaneously injected new strength, allowing her almost exhausted body to surge with a hint of vitality anew.

She gritted her teeth, both hands pressing on the ground, struggling to stand up. She could feel a vast and ancient power emerging from the golden spark in her chest, flowing through her limbs, healing her wounds, nourishing her divine soul. This power perfectly merged with her own cosmic origin, giving her an unprecedented perceptive clarity over the surrounding Law undulations and void corruption.

However, this power seemed so insignificant at this moment.

The ”container”—a twisted anchor point formed by Brother Xu Ran’s body and the gray light column, though slightly unstable due to Yu Kong Fire’s interference, its oppressive aura grew more violent. It seemed utterly enraged, its silent roar shaking the entire Restricted Area, further confusing the laws, collapsing space continually.

”Roar!”

A roared tempered by the heavens echoed from the perimeter of the Restricted Area! This was neither Fallen nor Void Hunter, but some more ancient, more powerful existence!

A pitch-black shadow like ink, pressing down from the sky like a mountain, its surroundings wrapped in countless twisted rune laws, each exuding a destructive aura. Its appearance made all the beings rushing into the Restricted Area pause in an instant, even the fanatical Fallen instinctively stopped, issuing low growls.

This was the ”Pioneers” under the Master of Nothingness’ command! They are the incarnations of the Master’s will placed throughout the cosmos, or ancient deities thoroughly eroded, possessing world-ending power, they are the true Executors of this calamity!

War, erupted thoroughly!

”Kill!”

No redundant words, only the most primal slaughter!

Those powerful beings rushing towards Xu Qinghan were immediately suppressed by the terrifying aura the Pioneers exuded upon appearance, but they did not retreat. They are the cosmos’s Guardians, the final hope of various races, they must vie time for Xu Qinghan, vie life for the Fire’s continuance!

Ancient combat skills blossomed in the Restricted Area, radiant divine light fiercely collided with dark void power, each clash tearing space, shattering mountains. Flesh and blood flew, laws collapsed, this ancient Restricted Area, turned into an Asura Battlefield instantly!
