Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 681 -681-The Secret of Aetherian Sanctuary Revealed

A feeling stirred deep in Aurek's heart.

Power housed in that lone feathered wing already rivaled a high-tier Origin God.

Metatron’s true form was certainly far mightier—likely having reached Source-Return God rank.

Aurek had no qualms about saving him from the "Dark Abyss" now that Metatron offered his assistance.

In return, Metatron would briefly ward off any quasi-Source-Return God Heaven dispatched.

Aurek entered the Fate River.

Should Heaven press on with its assault, countless lives would surely face devastation.

Clashes among supreme gods beyond Divine Revelant rank routinely pulverized stars, rent universes asunder, and obliterated vast starfields in an instant.

Amid such ferocious combat, who across the boundless Star Sea could stay unscathed?

Even an eternal sage-rank entity like Primordial Elder could merely struggle to survive in that maelstrom.

Aurek returned to the Starry Sky of Myriad Races, descending into the Styx Sector.

His mind power swiftly targeted the sacred stele resting at the river's bottom under Sacredwood Settlement.

Earlier, it had displayed no anomalies, resembling merely a plain rock ignored by everyone.

Yet now, the engravings on its surface started to shine, while a taboo aura emanated outward.

It felt as if the chains of an ancient eternal seal, imposed since primordial times, were slowly disintegrating from the corrosion of endless years.

Aurek flicked his hand, channeling immense divine power into the sacred stele to hasten the collapse of its sealing runes.

To his astonishment, however, that power didn't shatter the seal—instead, it fueled it like dry wood tossed into flames, making the seal's strength surge fiercer.

With no alternative, Aurek retracted his divine power.

"Does this seal break only from inside? Or maybe it needs a special token?"

His brows knit tightly, doubts swirling through his thoughts.

Rumble—!

A massive rumble abruptly rocked the cosmos.

Right then, buried deep in the twelve layers of Aetherian Sanctuary, the long-dormant light cocoon suddenly cracked open.

Brilliant starlight erupted like a newborn sun ascending the firmament.

Beyoncé strode out from the cocoon, her aura swelling like an ocean without bounds.

The fortune dragon coiled over the Supreme Sanctuary suddenly stirred to life, rearing its head in a thunderous roar.

Its gigantic frame extended through all twelve layers of the Divine Sanctuary, beaming golden radiance in countless rays, poised to challenge Beyoncé directly.

From distant Sacredwood Settlement, Aurek detected the tremendous fluctuation immediately.

He gave the sacred stele one last profound look before whirling away toward the Divine Sanctuary.

He had already uncovered every mystery of the Dark Abyss.

Now, the colossal secret concealed within the Divine Sanctuary for countless ages ignited his greatest intrigue.

Inside the crystalline Moonshine Hall—

Starlight draped Beyoncé. A sacred mark gleamed between her brows, with starlight ribbons swirling around her form, portraying her as a goddess sovereign over infinite galaxies.

No hint remained of her previous gluttonous, endearingly dim-witted little girl persona.

Josephine, Gloria, Natasha, Belinda, and the rest materialized one by one, eyeing her with frank fascination.

They had known for a long time that Beyoncé was the Stellar Saint-Emperor.

Beyond the Divine Sanctuary, even Kaos in the void's profoundest depths perceived the transformation, a peculiar spark flashing in his shadowy gaze.

Buzz—!

A colossal figure plummeted from the skies.

"Your Majesty! Sacred blessings!"

All present bowed promptly in homage.

Aurek nodded, his eyes resting steadily on Beyoncé.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Beyoncé bowed too.

Having undergone nirvanic rebirth, she had vaulted directly into quasi-Eternal Sage rank.

Yet such a level paled insignificantly before Aurek.

"At ease," Aurek stated calmly.

"Now that you have been reborn, the truth behind that matter should also come to light."

Beyoncé grasped it instantly. Without shying from Josephine and the others, she declared straightforwardly,

"Your Majesty, please come to the Supreme Sanctuary."

Aurek fell silent. Space warped sharply, drawing Beyoncé within, and the pair materialized in the Supreme Sanctuary the next moment.

Concurrently, an imperceptible force softly enshrouded Josephine, Belinda, and the other imperial consorts.

Any fortune or calamity lurking in the ultimate mystery concealed deep within the imperial harem posed a massive hazard to Aurek until its complete unveiling.

This spot represented the heart of his divine kingdom, directly linked to the security of his dear ones and even the unborn heirs.

Not a single error could be tolerated.

Josephine and her companions grew utterly vigilant, their attention honed to the peak.

Beyoncé spoke deliberately, "According to the decree of that supreme Divine Empress, this Supreme Sanctuary is the central nexus, and also the vital point of the activation key."

Her words barely ended when the starlight swirling around her ripped through her glowing robes.

Intricate and arcane patterns surfaced, tracing up her flesh before gathering at her brow.

A sacred mark on her forehead ignited in splendor, unleashing billions of light rays in a ceaseless flood.

Those rays burst from the Supreme Sanctuary, surging like a flood toward the crystal Moonshine Hall.

Aurek’s face grew grim as his mental force clamped onto each light stream’s trajectory.

Suddenly, the myriad streams fractured into countless threads, fanning out across the crystal Moonshine Hall.

They raced into every temple across the twelve levels of the Aetherian Sanctuary, vanishing inside instantly.

Immediately after, innumerable temples shook fiercely, casting forth an image of a boundless starry realm.

In that spectacle, a blue-gold crystal pierced the skies, bearing infinite prosperity as it hurtled toward the crystal Moonshine Hall in the twelve-layered Aetherian Sanctuary.

Simultaneously, each palace in the crystal Moonshine Hall displayed its own starry vista, with blue-gold crystals emerging from them all.

Every one of those countless blue-gold crystals streamed into the Supreme Sanctuary.

They merged swiftly, crafting a full suit of holy armor that promptly contracted.

A majestic aura erupted outward like a tempest.

Aurek sensed no strain at all, yet Beyoncé buckled to her knees under the crushing might.

A trace of that supreme aura seeped from the Gold Giant Gate.

In the Celestial Light God Realm, myriad beings dropped to the ground in worship.

Next came the Eastern Starfield, the Starry Sky of Myriad Races, the boundless Starlight Isles, the Primordial River Cosmos...

The force rippled outward like waves until it enveloped the whole endless Star Sea.

All creatures were pressed flat by that exalted and sovereign aura.

Even the Godtouched legions, millions strong, could not escape it.

Only the holy stele at the riverbed under Sacredwood Settlement—nearing total ruin—reacted, firing off waves of golden radiance.

Inside the Supreme Sanctuary—

Aurek ignored the outer upheavals completely.

The forged black-gold holy armor plunged toward him abruptly, and despite his might, he couldn’t fend it off.

It encased him entirely, sealing even his vision in darkness.

He resembled a statue trapped in primordial eternal frost.

Most astonishingly, his trusty dimensional vision failed to trigger.

Once the initial armor layer fitted over him, leftover blue-gold crystals hurriedly formed a matching second suit.

With a deafening roar, it crashed down, shrouding Aurek anew!

But the prior armor dissolved soundlessly into his flesh, like frost melting into liquid.

This cycle repeated endlessly until, after half an hour, all blue-gold crystals had integrated into him.

Ancient holy texts carved on the Supreme Sanctuary’s pillars started to flow, turning into enigmatic runes that blended seamlessly with Aurek.

An unseen power hauled him into a starfield of pure blue-gold crystals, as if to trap him eternally.

Aurek’s face hardened icily as he summoned a holy blade into his grip.

One swing cleaved the closest blue-gold crystal apart.

Shockingly, each shattered crystal boosted his strength slightly.

Meanwhile, his grasp of cosmic source profundities, fate, the imperial dao, and all ultimate laws sharpened dramatically.

"These blue-gold crystals actually contain the power of source profundities and the insights of mental cultivation. Every single one is a supreme inheritance!"

"So this... is the secret hidden deep within the Divine Sanctuary."

A profound shock rippled through Aurek, shaking him to his very core.
