Golden Paradise Perfected

Not only that, under the blessing of the Emperor Seal on Ye Chuan's body, his aura did not diminish but instead increased. A small portion of immortal power bred a massive amount of immortal power, which continued to feed back into Ye Chuan.

[You have entered the Early Stage of the Golden Immortal Realm]

[You have entered the Middle Stage of the Golden Immortal Realm]

[You have entered the Late Stage of the Golden Immortal Realm]

[You have entered the Peak Stage of the Golden Immortal Realm]

After refining this area, Ye Chuan's aura finally stabilized at a certain level.

His immortal soul was imperishable.

Indestructible through ten thousand tribulations!

Standing inside the chaos barrier and watching the changes in Ye Chuan's aura, Su Rui felt a bit dazed.

She knew Ye Chuan was strong.

But it wasn't until this moment that she truly felt his strength was no longer just about raw combat power.

It was a leap in the level of life itself.

Standing there, it was as if even time could no longer easily wear him down.

It felt as if he had broken through to another dimension.

Looking at Ye Chuan, Lin Xi asked in a low voice, "Did Mr. Ye level up his realm?"

Su Rui hummed in agreement,

"Probably."

Whatever, she was just here as a hostage anyway. Whether Ye Chuan was a bit stronger or weaker, the only difference to her was whether she lived or died.

It wasn't much different from before.

Ye Chuan opened his eyes, and the surging immortal light around him slowly retracted.

He raised his hand to recall the World-Suppressing Banner and took another look at the now completely silent Wenxian Ruins.

The cold, sinister pollution that originally occupied this place had mostly disappeared.

The residual decay still remained.

But at least it was no longer like before, where it felt as if every stone wanted to open its eyes and stare at them.

All the souls of the living creatures in this area had been refined by Ye Chuan.

Including those explorers, like the Habuhajimi race or whatever they were called.

Ye Chuan said calmly, "Let's go."

Su Rui was stunned for a moment. "We're leaving just like that?"

"What else?"

Ye Chuan looked at her. "Do you want to stay and do some archaeology?"

Su Rui immediately shook her head. "No."

Lin Xi also quickly shook her head. "I don't want to either. It's hard to even shoot a video here, and if I post it, the platform will probably flag it for gore and horror."

Ye Chuan waved his hand, and a black-gold power lifted Su Rui and Lin Xi. The three of them turned into a stream of light and directly left the central altar.

On the way back, the entire ruin was much quieter than when they arrived.

The flesh membranes covered in eyes had withered, the runes on the broken stone steles were revealed once again, and occasionally a bit of residual golden light floated up from the depths of the ruins, quickly dissipating into the void.

Looking at all this, Lin Xi suddenly whispered, "They must have been really powerful here in the past."

Su Rui nodded. "To leave behind such a massive ruin, they must have been glorious once."

Lin Xi fell silent for a moment. "But in the end, it's all gone."

Walking ahead, Ye Chuan's voice was very calm. "No matter how glorious a civilization is, one wrong step can turn it into ruins."

Su Rui's heart sank upon hearing this.

She suddenly thought of the Human Federation.

She thought of the Ten Thousand Races Alliance.

She thought of all those civilizations in this universe that believed themselves to be powerful enough.

If one day they also encountered a path that seemingly led to a higher level, would they be like the Wenxian Sect, knowing there was a problem ahead but still unable to resist stepping into it?

Lin Xi kept her head down.

"Mr. Ye... is the path to immortality really broken?"

Although she didn't understand the specific details of cultivation civilizations, from the mouth of that Eldritch Immortal, this seemed very important.

Ye Chuan did not answer immediately.

He looked at the shattered space-time rift at the end of the ruins, a hint of profound meaning appearing in his eyes.

"Yes."

"What does that mean?"

"It means..." Ye Chuan pondered for a moment before suddenly speaking. "It means that if technology cannot exceed the speed of light, and the universe continues to expand like this, the human race might never be able to step out of a single galaxy. You know clearly that the outside world is more wonderful, but you can only be trapped here."

"Cultivation civilizations are just like that."

"They clearly could have gone a step further, but the path was broken."

"So, they were unwilling to accept it."

It was simple and easy to understand.

"I see..."

The three of them passed through the space-time rift and returned to the edge of the Dark Nebula.

After they boarded the star shuttle, Su Rui immediately checked the ship's status.

"Energy normal."

"Warp core normal."

"Shield system normal."

After finishing her checks, she finally slumped into the pilot's seat, as if exhaling all her tension.

"We made it back alive."

It was like playing a real-life battle royale.

At least they had a cheater carrying them. If she had gone in by herself, she would have been turned into a monster in a matter of seconds.

Sitting next to her in the co-pilot seat, Lin Xi also let out a long sigh of relief.

Sitting on the sofa in the back, Ye Chuan took out his terminal, glanced at it, and said, "Let's keep going."

Su Rui immediately adjusted the coordinates.

The engines restarted, and the silver-white star shuttle turned into a streak of light, leaving the Dark Nebula and flying toward the Zeus Space Station.

On the way back, the darkness of the Dark Nebula had noticeably faded.

The oppressive feeling that originally made people's chests feel tight had also mostly disappeared. After all, the energy in the space had been refined by Ye Chuan.

A few hours later, the star shuttle passed through a warp channel and returned to the outside of the Zeus Space Station.

The space station was now even more chaotic than when they had left.

Some ships that had fled back from the ruins were crowded near the docking port. Many of the ships still had traces of black and red pollution on their hulls, and the port was full of traumatized explorers and mercenaries.

Some people were crying.

Some were screaming for a doctor.

Others were kneeling on the ground, repeatedly muttering that they had seen the Immortal Realm.

However, those auras of pollution were very faint. Having lost their source, they could no longer spread.

And because of the Outer God's power, those infected were killed on the spot, so it didn't cause much of a stir.

Looking at the chaotic scene on the screen, Su Rui said in a low voice, "It looks like quite a few of them managed to escape back."

Lin Xi leaned against the porthole and took a look.

"They probably don't know that the real final boss is already gone, right?"

Ye Chuan leaned back on the sofa, his tone casual. "It's the same whether they know or not."

"They probably won't dare to go back there again anyway."

Su Rui gave a bitter smile. "It's more than just not daring to go back. After this, terrifying legends about the Dark Nebula will probably circulate around the Zeus Space Station for years."

Too lazy to entertain their chatter, Ye Chuan directly ordered, "Replenish the energy and reset the course."

Su Rui let out a dry laugh. "We're still going to the Ten Thousand Races Alliance? Um... shouldn't we head back to the Apocalypse Star System to rest for a bit?"

Ye Chuan looked out the porthole at the chaotic Zeus Space Station, his tone completely flat. "Of course. Did stopping at a ruin halfway make you forget what you're supposed to be doing?"

"The cultivation ruin was just a detour."

"We haven't done our real business yet."

Su Rui opened her mouth to speak, but ultimately just nodded silently.

She had almost forgotten.

Their original destination from the very beginning was the Ten Thousand Races Alliance.

They were just delayed halfway by this terrifying cultivation ruin.

Ahhhhh, they still had to go to the Ten Thousand Races Alliance.

Speaking of which, would Ye Chuan protect her?

He protected her in the ruin, so he wouldn't just kill her once they got to their destination, right?

Probably not, right?

Ye Chuan seemed to have at least a little bit of humanity left.

Su Rui found it hard to even comfort herself.
