Transcendent Dawn
Chapter 761

ꨡ[6Ba~oA|1: Chapter 0761: The Fruit (Seeking Subscriptions) Chapter 761: Chapter 0761: The Fruit (Seeking Subscriptions) Su Lu planted a seed casually.

Before him, a tender sprout emerged from the ground, growing rapidly into a verdant apple tree.

On the apple tree, several brightly shining golden apples appeared.

It seemed that within the core of the fruit were countless runes and specks of light, emitting dazzling radiance.

“‘Dream’, ‘Arcane’, ‘Resurrection’, ‘Heat’, ‘Book’…”

This was the ‘domain’ mastered by demigods, considered quite useless to Su Lu, and he had stripped it away.

“Although their intelligence is disheartening, let’s try again…”

Su Lu waved his hand, opening a portal with a sacred light that covered the Kermode Mountains.

Soon, the Ancient Rulers came one after another, crawling before him, listening to him speak of the transcendent path.

...

This time, Su Lu was talking about how to become a god.

The unlimited life, unlimited power, immediately made all rulers extremely yearn for it.

In the end, Su Lu looked around, smiled and said, “The secret of becoming a god is in the apple tree…

Montiq, you were the first ruler that the world gave birth to.

Go choose one.”

Overjoyed, Montiq came before the apple tree.

He extended tentacles, spread among the five apples one by one, and finally picked the fruit containing the domain of ‘Dream’.

Then, Su Lu asked Avit, the sky ruler, to come forward.

He chose ‘Arcane’.

Flynn, the fire ruler who controlled flames, naturally took ‘Heat’ away.

Seeing that three of the five fruits representing the hope of becoming gods were taken, the remaining rulers began to get anxious.

At this time, Su Lu pointed with his finger and looked at a lump of flesh composed of countless tentacles: “Rikde, you take ‘Book’ and become the Recorder.

You will record all history.”

“I will follow your will, great creator.”

The brown lump of flesh stepped forward and took away the penultimate fruit.

“Great First Creator…” a menacing black serpent stepped forward: “Please bestow me the last fruit…”

“Dark Serpent Oen…”

Su Lu laughed casually, his tone mysteriously said, “This fruit does not belong to you, it belongs to the dark ruler—Enoch Mu!”

“I obey your will.”

A beast made up of scorpions and spiders came forward and took the last fruit.

“In this, only the mysteries to become a gods are hidden, I am more looking forward to your own understanding…”

Su Lu looked at Oen: “Now…

go away.”

The black serpent crawled down, its vindictive eyes staring at Enoch Mu.

“From today, the Holy Mountain of Kermode is closed, and only true gods can enter!”

Su Lu waved his hand, letting all the Ancient Rulers leave, and plunged into his laboratory.

…

It wasn’t long before he felt a wave of becoming a god.

“Stepping into that stage, becoming a seventh-level being?

Is it Montiq?”

Su Lu wasn’t surprised at all.

After all, this was the domain that he had split off.

If it still couldn’t succeed, you might as well die.

What he expected was the subsequent development.

It wasn’t long before Avit, Flynn, and Rikde also successively became gods.

Especially Montiq and Avit, they were the first to master the method of summoning specific creatures from the ‘Soup of Life’, creating their own respective clans.

The clans worshipping water and the clans worshipping the sky began to fight fiercely on the Laplace Continent.

Only Enoch Mu had an accident.

He was unable to digest the fruit imbued with the ‘Resurrection’ power and was besieged by a large number of rulers.

Eventually, the fruit was taken away by the Dark Serpent Oen, who became a demigod of the Resurrection domain.

As commanded by Su Lu, Rikde faithfully recorded everything.

Millions of years passed once again.

The descendants of the five divine spirits created brilliant civilizations of their own, mastering the craft of pottery and building city-states and nations.

With the continued growth of these civilizations, the populations gradually expanded to over a hundred thousand each.

However, an issue surfaced.

No matter it was the newborns or the five divine spirits themselves.

Their strength seemed to have inherent fetters preventing them from progressing any further.

The other Ancient Rulers had encountered the same issue.

…

Kermode Holy Mountain.

In the grand hall, the five divine spirits ascended to their divine chairs.

“The original creator…

has sealed himself for too long, far too long…”

Rikde looked at the laboratory door with worry.

“More critically…it’s us…”

Montiq said, “Ever since we consumed the fruit, our strength has not improved even a little…”

“Even when we summon descendants and establish faith, it’s the same…” Flam sighed heavily.

“The divine spirits are just the beginning…How can we further progress?”

Avit voiced his doubts.

“Hehe…”

At this time, the Dark Serpent Oen laughed: “Have you not realized it yet?”

“Oen, what are you trying to say?”

Rikde asked with a tone filled with disgust.

The four Old Gods all held some dissatisfaction towards this irregularly ascended individual.

However, because of the disagreements among them, none who wanted to engage in a lose-lose conflict with Oen.

Thus, they reluctantly let Oen enter the Holy Mountain and become part of the five Old Gods.

“This world…”

Oen spoke while flicking his snake tongue, with a sense of murmuring and bewitching: “It has always been ‘constant’!

Everything–past, present, and future–is predetermined!

Our ability to become gods is not due to anything else but from gaining the fruit given by the Creator God…”

“What exactly are you trying to say?”

Montiq roared in anger.

“To progress further as a divine spirit, maybe…only through the Creator God!” Oen voiced in a deep tone.

“Blasphemy!”

Rikde roared: “Oen, if you dare to say one more word, I swear to kill you!”

“The original creator…

may have weakened, may have decayed, or even may have died…” Oen uttered shocking words: “Why else is it so that, despite my blasphemy, he has not appeared to punish me?

I suggest we open that door together…

”

“Such…

blasphemous words.”

Rikde screamed in protest.

“Of course…

that’s impossible.”

Montiq also voiced out.

“Well then…

Your Excellencies, we shall meet again.”

The Dark Serpent smiled and vanished from sight.

The meeting of the Old Gods ended unpleasantly.

But, in a hidden space, Oen let out an excited hiss: “You all came…

I knew it…

before the supreme temptation…

I will show you the true truth!

The so-called original creator is nothing but a complete lie…”

…

Inside the lab.

Su Lu’s face was somewhat solemn: “The experiment failed…

Even though these rulers are born with great strength, their potentials are too weak.

It seems they are inherently defined by their ‘rank’.

Unless I divide my authority and give it to them, they will never progress!

Moreover…

they seem to have realized this and are conspiring against me?”
