Chapter 541

“So that’s it… Guardian is not just about defense, but for better offense… it’s to protect the civilization’s legacy behind!” A wave of enlightenment arose in Cang Shi’s heart, his Dao being sublimated at this moment.

And those hundred kings received unimaginable benefits.

They had just condensed their thrones, with foundations still shallow. Now, under the tempering of the Fire’s Origin, their thrones were imprinted with immortal divinity, becoming indestructible. Their personal understanding of the Law also advanced rapidly under the sweeping influence of the vast civilization’s will.

Even the three thousand Dao Soldiers, although not eligible to directly receive the Fire’s Origin, formed a Grand Array connecting their energy with the kings, sharing a trace of the divine aura that diffused. That tiny trace made them feel their Dao Foundation solidified several times, paving a smooth path for future cultivation!

The entire Po Jun Hall transformed into an ocean of creation.

Golden Divine Light intertwined with gray Chaos energy, sacredness and nirvana, creation and destruction, these two opposing forces reached a subtle balance under Xu Ran’s control.

Sweat seeped from Xu Ran’s forehead.

Simultaneously guiding the Fire’s Origin and guarding the way for over a hundred strong beings was a massive test for him. His internal Gui Xu world rapidly operated, consuming vast amounts of Origin Power.

But, his gains were equally massive.

During this process, his understanding of immortal divinity and his insight into the civilization’s will deepened rapidly. His Gui Xu Dao continued to embrace and integrate, becoming more grand and inclusive.

“‘Pioneer’ mission: Strengthen the Gui Xu camp.”

“Reward: Expansion of Gui Xu World’s Origin, Daoist Monarch insight +5.”

The system’s prompt sounded in his mind, a refreshing breath surged into his Divine Soul, instantly restoring his consumed Spiritual Power, even advancing it.

Xu Ran’s lips curled slightly.

This is his Dao!

The road of the Pioneer is never a solitary journey, but leading a civilization forward together!

Time slowly passed amidst everyone’s cultivation.

No one knew how long it had been when Zhen Shan first opened his eyes.

Boom!

Two golden Divine rays blasted out from his eyes, piercing the void ahead, leaving two black holes that couldn’t heal for a long time. His aura was more than twice as strong as before! Though his realm remained in the early stage of Divine Fire, the battle intent condensed like substance could easily make ordinary mid-stage Divine Fire practitioners tremble with fear.

He slowly stood up, the calamity throne floating behind him had completely changed its appearance. It transformed entirely into dark gold, no longer carved with wailing souls but with ancient murals of Divine Court Celestial Soldiers battling in fields, military law like mountains. The aura emitted by the throne was dignified military might, suppressing all with iron-blood laws!

“Thank you, my lord, for your fulfillment!” Zhen Shan knelt on one knee, his voice clanging with heartfelt reverence and gratitude.

Right after, Cang Shi also woke up. While his aura was restrained, his eyes opening and closing seemed to birth and extinguish stars. Just standing there, he gave off an unshakably majestic presence. His Celestial Stone Divine Dao had evidently reached a new level.

Then, the hundred kings gradually awakened, each with soaring aura, divine light glimmering, faces filled with transformative joy.

“Very good.” Xu Ran nodded in satisfaction, “Rise, this is just the beginning.”

He turned again to the altar where the still-burning inexhaustible Fire blazed. At this moment, although the Fire’s aura had waned slightly, its essence was intact; given enough time, it could still recover fully.

“Next, it’s your turn.” Xu Ran softly muttered.

His Divine Thought locked onto the Pioneer moored outside Po Jun Hall.

“I choose, Plan Two.”

As he silently chanted in his heart, Xu Ran formed seals with his hands, casting complex and profound spells.

“With me as the master, Gui Xu as the furnace, Divine Court Battle Seal as the guide, decree—Fire return!”

Rumble!

The massive Pioneer seemed to be summoned by an invisible force, slowly trembled. On its hull, the gray deck forged by countless divine materials from Gui Xu Domain began to light up with billions of Runes.

Xu Ran reached out, the inexhaustible Fire on the altar transformed into a golden-red stream of light, soaring skyward, piercing through the Po Jun Hall’s ceiling, like a falling sun, precisely shooting towards the core of Pioneer!

“Suppress!”

Xu Ran whispered a low command, his whole being transformed into a stream of light, instantly appearing on Pioneer’s bridge. He sat cross-legged, placing both hands on the core Array Map, unleashing the Gui Xu world’s power within himself without reservation.

An unprecedented fusion and metamorphosis began!

Roar!

The entire Pioneer emitted a roar like an awakening Ancient Fierce Beast. This was not a mechanical rumble, but an angry roar filled with life’s pulse!

The inexhaustible Fire contained an immortal will of civilization, a fury energy. Once it entered the core, it began ferociously impacting every structure of the ark, striving to transform this “mortal item” into the “Divine Court’s celestial ship” it was familiar with!

Crack! Crack!

Pioneer’s hull started to exhibit gigantic fractures, seemingly on the verge of disintegration. Countless arrays flickered unstably under the impact of violent energy, nearing collapse.
