I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

I am the cosmos.

This is Han Zhan’s Path of Creation.

It’s also the greatest harvest he got from all the Saints in the Fruit World.

Even the branches of the World Tree can’t blanket an entire cosmos.

As the silver radiance burst forth, countless branches were forced open again.

Look closely—that’s star after star, each giving off a faint, clear glow. Only when billions of stars gather together can they shine that insanely bright!

Han Zhan’s cosmos unfurled across this pitch-black Star Domain.

Every single star returned to its precise position. A billion stars meant a billion coordinates.

Han Zhan had only seen it once in the Fruit World, and he remembered all billion precise positions. You couldn’t even call him a monster at this point.

By Saint Fu Xi’s original plan, he only expected Han Zhan to memorize one-third of the stars’ positions.

This cosmos grand array formed from billions of stars and Ancient Divine Soldiers—remembering just one-third of the positions would already unleash terrifying power.

Not even the Saints ever imagined that Han Zhan could watch it once, then remember the positions of all billion stars!

Even beings as powerful as Them, even Fu Xi, who was a total Array savant, knew they couldn’t pull that off in one go.

But Han Zhan did it.

He memorized the positions of all the stars, then successfully reproduced them. The cosmos grand array’s sudden blast of power was what caught the World Tree completely off guard.

At first glance, it might sound exaggerated.

Even Saint Fu Xi can’t pull it off in one shot—can Han Zhan really be compared to a Saint?

The answer is no.

However, as everyone knows, Han Zhan is a total cheat—running hacks is just basic operations.

So the thing that actually helped Han Zhan remember the positions of that billion-star array was the Celestial Net Chip in his brain!

If right now Fu Xi were standing beside Han Zhan, staring at the scene with a shocked face,

Han Zhan would definitely say to Fu Xi Saint, ”My lord, times have changed.”

Back to the topic.

As the billions of stars returned to place, the blazing starlight in the cosmos gradually dimmed—but it didn’t vanish. Instead, it scattered into every corner of the cosmos.

Billions of stars, seven Divine Soldiers, with Han Zhan as the cosmos’s consciousness and the core of the array, formed a cosmos-level grand array rarely seen across the ages!

The billions of stars grand array pried open the branches of the World Tree, covering that little broken ball Blue Star inside.

Inside the Planet Level War Fortress, all the Great Xia top brass were standing in the command room, staring at this scene, dumbfounded.

Not a sound.

They watched as Blue Star was imprisoned by the World Tree’s branches. Their field of view went pitch-black, exactly like their mood at that moment.

But in the next second, they saw Han Zhan’s little cosmos explode, billions of stars suddenly blazing,

and it actually forced a hard block against the World Tree’s technique!

That’s the World Tree—a Creator God Level existence—and Han Zhan blocked it?!

Seriously, this was insane.

It felt like a dream; they still hadn’t snapped out of it.

”He... he blocked it...”

”That’s a Creator God... Did Han Zhan... also become a Supreme God?”

”Then do we... still have hope?!”

The Little Dragon Man Bob didn’t speak. In his eyes, dense green strings of code were flickering madly as he calculated something.

About 0.05 seconds later, he shook his head and said in a deep voice:

”Hope is still slim.”

”The win rate has risen from the original zero percent to two percent.”

The reasoning was simple—because the World Tree hadn’t even used its full strength.

That was the judgment of the Celestial Net intellect.

Bob’s analysis had just ended.

Outside the cosmos starry sky, a golden light point suddenly appeared,

and in the blink of an eye that light point completely detonated in everyone’s vision.

A Holy Tree that filled the cosmos appeared at the end of the universe.

The World Tree!

The true body of the World Tree had finally appeared.

Just as Bob had predicted, its previous strikes were nothing but child’s play.

—Vmm!

As the World Tree’s true body manifested, a ring of pale-golden ripples spread outward through the cosmos.

Wherever the golden light passed, golden seeds the size of stars dropped into the void, sprouting and germinating.

Every golden seed grew from sapling to towering giant tree in an instant.

These star-trees landed precisely at the positions of the billions of stars in Han Zhan’s cosmos grand array,

using billions of stellar giant trees to counter billions of stars.

The golden trees rooted themselves deep in the stars, drawing out energy. In almost an instant, star after star was sucked dry and completely went gray and dead.

Extinction, collapse, turning into cosmic dust... More and more stars replayed this scene. In just a few breaths, the brilliance of the billions of stars grand array dimmed by more than half.

”Hmph.”

Han Zhan let out a cold snort, his face deathly pale.

Without another word, he hurled out his Storage Bag.

The next second, tons and tons of Energy Bricks floated out. Among the seven Divine Soldiers’ lights, the one representing the Kongtong Seal swallowed all those Energy Bricks.

Vast Spiritual Power surged back; Han Zhan raised his hand again, trying to reshape the stars the golden giant trees had drained and destroyed, patching the breaches in the billions of stars grand array.

Just then, a sense of danger that made his blood run cold suddenly erupted behind him.

Han Zhan didn’t even think—he instantly cut off the array casting, and then the seven beams of light behind him condensed into seven layers of defense.

Only then did he see what had made his hair stand on end.

It was a golden leaf of the World Tree!

A terrifying golden leaf on par with Xuanyuan Sword Energy pierced through the seven defenses in a blink, striking Han Zhan’s true body.

Han Zhan’s face turned even paler. He clutched his abdomen, half-kneeling in the void.

Just one hit, and he was already heavily wounded.

This was the true power of the World Tree as a Creator God!

Han Zhan knew very well: if the billions of stars grand array hadn’t taken most of the damage for him, and if he didn’t have the seven Divine Soldiers protecting his body, plus his own flesh body tempered a thousand times over,

anyone else would’ve been instantly killed by that seemingly insignificant golden leaf’s sneak attack!

And that was just one move.

The World Tree obviously wasn’t limited to that one trick.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan forcibly endured the agony of his pierced abdomen and raised his hand again.

The Shennong Cauldron’s Creativity Talent poured into Han Zhan’s body, dragging his state back up to Peak.

But just during that gap of passive defense—during that brief back-and-forth—the remaining half of the billions of stars was also completely devoured by the World Tree!

The billions of stars grand array—broken!

With the grand array gone, the outcome was no longer in doubt.

It wasn’t that Han Zhan was too weak—it was that the World Tree was too strong.

Even though Han Zhan now possessed Divine Level strength, the gap between a Creator God and a Divine being was still way too huge.

You could put it this way: a Creator God can instakill most Divine beings.

Even a Divine Level existence like Dawn, stacked with a ton of artifacts, in a five-on-one scenario, would still only be able to run away in disgrace.

The fact that Han Zhan lasted this long under the World Tree’s attacks meant his strength was absolutely unquestionable.

Unfortunately, in the end he still couldn’t save Blue Star.

Just as that thought crossed Han Zhan’s mind, a giant arm blazing with blinding light suddenly reached down from the starry sky.

Dawn Number Two, who’d been hiding in the dark using Antique Artifacts to stay alive, finally let out a relieved voice:

”Dawn Number One, you finally made it!”
