NOVEL NEXT Chapter 383: Void Wormhole
```
"It's time to go out," Sìxiàng, having inherited the Authority of imprisonment, felt a significant increase in its control over the Dark Realm as the Dark Overlord completely dissipated.
With a wave of its hand, it left the spot.
The next second, Sìxiàng appeared in the midst of the Dark Realm, sensed around to confirm the location of its master.
Just as it was about to leave, it suddenly turned its head toward the side.
The mountain wall trembled, and a hundred-meter-tall stone giant detached from the wall, stepping out from within.
Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
A dark-red storm swirled around the giant, "Damned birdman, fight me head-on if you dare, instead of running away!" the gray-red stone giant bellowed in Rage.
"Fine," Sìxiàng said calmly.
The tranquility in its voice made the stone giant pause momentarily.
"I mentioned I had some things to take care of earlier, now I am done," Sìxiàng said and lifted its claw.
In an instant, a chill-inducing, terrifying aura emanated from Sìxiàng.
The stone giant's brain short-circuited. How had its presence become so formidable in the blink of an eye?
Before it could continue to ponder, Sìxiàng had already appeared before it, moving at an unbelievably fast speed.
An eagle claw smashed down upon its head!
The momentum of the Ninth Step of Ascension unleashed to its fullest.
The stone giant's head was sheerly scraped off!
What followed was a vast dark aura that condensed into a giant eagle claw, grabbing hold of the entire head of the stone giant.
Boom, boom, boom~
The sonic booms created by Sìxiàng's rapid movement finally reached the ears of the stone giant.
But it was its last consciousness.
Because its entire head had been uprooted.
The hundred-meter-tall giant was torn in two from top to bottom by the dark giant claw.
Having accomplished all this, Sìxiàng shook its claw lightly as if it had done something insignificant.
With one step, it vanished from the spot.
The next second, it reappeared back where it started, waving its hand, and the body of the stone giant on the ground was chopped into several pieces and collected into a Storage Ornament.
"Can't let it go to waste."
Sìxiàng thought for a moment, reckoned that the corpse of an Ascension Level creature could probably be traded for quite a lot of resources.
Then it disappeared from the spot again, having sensed the presence of its master.
After the breakthrough in Ascension, Sìxiàng found that it could even perceive the aura of the primary plane through the Dark Realm.
It didn't know if this was an ability unlocked after Ascension or a unique power obtained after inheriting the Authority.
...
Chen Xing clenched his fist, getting accustomed to his newly enhanced power.
He felt oddly moved; one lies at home, and realms fall from the sky.
He had hardly made an effort, yet his realm had already broken through; now he was a genuine Ascension Beast Tamer.
The speed was so swift that even he himself was slightly taken aback.
Indeed, truly excellent Beast Tamings work hard on their own!
He hadn't properly experienced the sensation of breaking through to Ascension when he wondered when Sìxiàng would return.
No sooner had the thought crossed his mind, the void before him was torn open.
A towering figure, five meters tall, stepped out from within.
After a few seconds of surprise, Chen Xing blurted out, "How did you get shorter?"
Sìxiàng: "..."
The first thing his master said upon seeing him was that he had gotten shorter. Was that polite?
"Oh~ you became more refined!"
Chen Xing nodded, concentration is essence.
Sìxiàng had undergone a major concentration.
If it wasn't for concentration, how could it directly become the First Step of Ascension... the Second Step... the Ninth Step???
As Chen Xing made out Sìxiàng's realm, he doubted if he might have seen it wrong.
```
```
So you didn't just breakthrough to the first step of Ascension, but to the Ninth Step of Ascension?
"Master, although I've made a breakthrough, I've also provoked an enemy."
After hesitating for a moment, Sìxiàng shared what he had witnessed in the depths of the Dark Realm.
"A god who has mastered the three Authorities of Judgment, Trial, and Punishment?"
Such a formidable adversary, it seems to have a tad more prestige than even the God of Eternal Night.
But the itch is hardly felt where the body is covered with sores.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Having one God of Eternal Night, one more doesn't make much of a difference.
Taotie has one, Sìxiàng has another, and it's still unknown who the enemy of the Dong Jun bloodline is.
The Chaos Dragon Mother had descended an oracle to warn him before, suggesting there might be some involvement behind the scenes.
All these extinct bloodlines had once been manipulated by dark forces.
It must be the same case here; if not for those dark forces, they wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
"You're now at the Ninth Step of Ascension, do you know how to proceed to the Tenth Step?"
Sìxiàng nodded, "Defeating an enemy at the Tenth Step of Ascension or a severely injured god should allow a breakthrough to the Tenth Step."
Hearing this, Chen Xing immediately realized that this task might not be so simple.
Those who have reached the Tenth Step of Ascension, just one step away from becoming a god, are all top-tier beings.
Even if not of red quality, their Talent would probably be of orange quality.
After all, the higher one goes, the harder it gets.
Still, Chen Xing said, "If there's a chance later on, I'll help you look out. Make sure you're always in top condition, preferably at your peak. Oh, and I've prepared a gold sand brown sugar baked sticky rice cake for you at home. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Warmth filled Sìxiàng's heart upon hearing that his master had kept a delicious treat for him.
Chen Xing took out the cake and placed it on the table; Sìxiàng grabbed it and chewed slowly instead of devouring it all at once.
While eating, he closed his eyes to savor the flavors slowly.
"Delicious."
After finishing the cake, Sìxiàng felt a swelling on his forehead and his head felt dizzy.
"Eating this will help you awaken another Talent, keep an eye on your state."
Hearing his master's words, Sìxiàng understood.
Suddenly remembering something, it took out the corpse of a mountain giant from its Storage Ornament.
"Master, this is something I casually slaughtered on my way back, do you think it's of any use?"
Even though it had been dead for a while, the corpse of the mountain giant still exuded a strong imposing aura.
The stone body was extremely hard; Chen Xing knocked on it, and even with all his might, he could barely leave a faint white mark on the surface.
"Definitely useful, I'll check its species later to see which part of the body is valuable."
The body of a monster at the Ascension Level has undergone two metamorphoses.
Even a mere rock, after two metamorphoses, can turn into jade.
Even flakes chiseled from the surface of this mountain giant's corpse can be sold for a good price.
However, it's also necessary to determine the monster's species to know which organ is the most valuable, so it can be sold for the highest price.
At this moment, a bright light shone from Dong Jun's body next to him.
Absorbing all the light in the room.
Chen Xing checked Dong Jun's Talent column.
[Talent]Chaos Absorption (Passive): Chaos can absorb everything; whenever attacked, 30% of the damage is negated.
He had awakened a defensive passive.
At the same time, on the other side, Little Void was following suit.
The surrounding void vibrated.
Ripples spread out in layers.
[Talent]Void Wormhole (Active): Every time a Void Hunter performs a spatial traversal, it leaves a void wormhole in its original location, allowing other units to also perform spatial traversal through the void wormhole.
This Talent seemed somewhat underwhelming, but if the void wormholes created by Little Void could penetrate the crystal walls of the Divine Country, then Chen Xing would be willing to call it a divine ability.
