Book 07 Chapter 200: The Slightest Disagreement Leading to Total Annihilation!
The flawed immortal firmament:
The moment Essence Genesis extracted the Immortal Origin, the power of the world stopped mending the eighteen cracks in the flawed immortal firmament. Void Energy immediately invaded, and a massive fracturing occurred in the immortal firmament’s periphery.
The entire immortal firmament seemed on the brink of destruction due to the incursion of Void Energy, shaking and quivering. The beings within were naturally terrified.
The landscape was collapsing, and massive cracks appeared in the sky, resembling the apocalypse.
The disciples from all the major sects fell to their knees.
“Holy Master, what’s happening?”
“Is the sky falling? Are we doomed?”
“Holy Master, you’ve been absent for eight hundred thousand years. What can we do now?”
“Holy Master!”
The apocalyptic fear made the Six Paths Immortal everyone’s only hope, and all were begging on their knees. There was no other solution.
At the height of their desperation, the voice of the Six Paths Immortal finally came, accompanied by a dragon roar.
“All life, listen to my command. I am the Six Paths Immortal. Raise your right hand and lend all your energy to me!”
The voice of the Six Paths Immortal rang out, causing everyone’s eyes to widen in disbelief.
“I can hear it! I can hear it!”
“It’s the voice of the Holy Master! The Holy Master hasn’t abandoned us!”
Various voices arose, expressing exultation. The Holy Master, whom they had worshiped their whole lives, had finally appeared.
“Hurry, raise your hand! Raise your right hand!”
“Holy Master, please save us!”
In their excitement, all living beings raised their right hands.
Fervent believers in the Six Paths Immortal filled this flawed immortal firmament. As soon as the Six Paths Immortal spoke, that power of faith transmitted the message to all. Everything was real. Almost everyone raised their right hand without hesitation.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Like flowing rivers, streams of energy rushed from all directions towards the golden blessings dragon above the Six Paths Immortal.
The energy of nearly all life converged. How tremendous was the aggregation of the energy of all beings in an immortal firmament? Even if the number of beings in the flawed immortal firmament was just one percent of those in the Six Paths Immortal Firmament, it still numbered in the trillions.
This surging energy was even greater than the energy borrowed from an entire heavenly dynasty from the Six Paths Immortal Firmament. If this scene had appeared on the Divine Continent, it would have terrified countless people.
That energy flowed into the golden blessings dragon like a tsunami and was about to enter the body of the Six Paths Immortal.
------
Inside the Gu’s Immortal Firmament:
“Using the energy of fanatical believers? The efforts of Houtu and the others ended up just benefiting Six Paths!” Purple Subtlety grumbled in dissatisfaction.
“Six Paths? Humph! I was the one who created and spread this method of using blessings. He actually used my method. Humph!” Long Wanyu felt uncomfortable.
However, no matter what, the body of the Six Paths Immortal’s consciousness was about to receive an exponential increase in strength.
Essence Genesis did not evince any fear facing this. Instead, a sneer crept across his face.
“Driving the power of all life? It’s indeed a solution; unfortunately, it’s useless against me!” Essence Genesis said coldly.
“Why would it be useless?” the Six Paths Immortal sneered.
The golden blessings dragon in the sky roared. Dragging the energy coming from all over the world, it rushed towards the Six Paths Immortal to bring him this boundless energy.
“All in my way will die!” Essence Genesis lightly waved his hand.
“You want to kill me? It’s too early!” the Six Paths Immortal scoffed.
“What I said doesn’t just refer to you but to all who stand in my way!” Essence Genesis said coldly.
The Six Paths Immortal did not care because he could immediately annihilate Essence Genesis after driving the power of all life. Any more words were useless.
However, Essence Genesis suddenly stretched out his right hand high in the sky. A gray energy sphere about thirty-three meters in diameter appeared in the palm of his right hand. Countless sword auras seemed to coalesce inside this gray energy sphere.
The gray energy sphere grew bigger and bigger as it accumulated energy. Thirty-three meters? No, it grew to three hundred thirty-three meters in the blink of an eye.
“Is that primal chaos sword qi inside? Although powerful, it’s not enough against the Six Paths Immortal who drives the power of all life, right?” Lady Houtu asked curiously.
“Something’s not right!” Gu Hai’s pupils suddenly shrank.
“What’s the—” Kong Xuan hadn’t finished asking his question when…
Boom!
The giant sphere in Essence Genesis’s palm exploded, shattering into billions of sword qi flying everywhere, like flowers scattered in all directions.
“Huh? His primal chaos sword qi sphere broke?” Mao Tianyun goggled in confusion.
“No, he’s going to kill!” Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.
“Damn it! Essence Genesis, how dare you?!” The Six Paths Immortal’s eyes widened.
However, it was already too late. This primal chaos sword qi moved extremely fast, instantly reaching all corners of the world as though they had surpassed time and space.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The primal chaos sword qi exploded everywhere, forming large pits. However, the most terrifying part was that each sword qi penetrated a body.
Every single one killed a living being.
“Argh!”
“Don’t!”
“Save me!”
The Six Paths Immortal could hear the cries and screams of all living beings because of the golden blessings dragon.
However, these screams only lasted for a moment.
The golden blessings dragon suddenly fell silent.
Whoosh!
The gathered energy of all life abruptly dissipated. The golden blessings dragon disintegrated after a mournful whimper.
The energy on the verge of pouring into the Six Paths Immortal—and even what had entered—vanished.
Gasp! Gu Hai’s group inhaled sharply.
Inside the Gu’s Immortal Firmament, Ensnaring Performance and Longevity voiced their bewilderment. “What just happened?”
“Essence Genesis!” exclaimed Long Wanyu, shock clear in her voice. “He eliminated every living being in the world.”
Ensnaring Performance’s voice rang out with disbelief. “He killed all the living beings in the flawed immortal firmament? Both humans and animal spirits are all dead?”
Everyone was just as shocked as Ensnaring Performance.
Essence Genesis destroyed the world with a mere flick of his hand, annihilating everyone who disagreed with him.
Apart from Gu Hai’s group, all the living beings in the flawed immortal firmament died. Even the dead souls in the nether realm had met with destruction. In a single moment, life had ceased to exist.
“How ruthless!” Long Wanqing exclaimed, reflecting the sentiment of everyone.
This was Long Wanqing’s first encounter with such brutality. The number of beings, in the trillions, were all gone with a single move.
It was not his immense power but the ruthlessness of his actions that sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
Shocked, Purple Subtlety asked, “Isn’t he afraid of the enormous karmic debt he must have incurred?”
“His heavenly gift must be at a late stage of cultivation. Only then can one be free from karma,” explained Long Wanyu.
This notion of being free from karma caught everyone by surprise. They all turned to look at Long Wanyu.
“That’s right,” added Long Wanyu. “He is free from karma. But his ruthlessness, eradicating so many living beings in one move just because they were in his way, was what I did not anticipate.”
“He has done it before,” said Gu Hai solemnly. “He carried out a massacre in the Divine Continent’s Southern Sea.”
“Ah?!”
Gu Hai sighed and added, “He is inherently heartless.”
In the distance, Essence Genesis eliminated all living beings with a wave of his hand, causing all energy flowing towards the Six Paths Immortal to dissipate. The Six Paths Immortal was both surprised and angry. For the first time, he had met someone as ruthless as himself.
In this world, ruthlessness could mean invincibility. The Six Paths Immortal looked at the now immensely powerful Essence Genesis and could not help wanting to kill him. He knew he must kill Essence Genesis as soon as possible—the world had room for only one such ruthless being.
Essence Genesis laughed coldly, “I warned you. Those who block me will die.”
The Six Paths Immortal sneered at Essence Genesis, “The Myriad Age Daoist Sect? You are indeed quite something, killing my followers. You won’t have an easy end today.”
The Six Paths Immortal waved his hand after speaking.
Buzz!
A black light shot out from the Six Paths Immortal’s Heaven’s eye, a Divinity Destroying Light of considerable size.
“Humph! It’s not very impressive!” Essence Genesis responded coldly.
Buzz!
Simultaneously, a large purple Divinity Destroying Light shot out from Essence Genesis’s heavenly eye.
Boom!
As the two beams of Divinity Destroying Light met, a supermassive black hole burst into being, its boundaries rapidly expanding.
“Move!” yelled Gu Hai.
Whoosh!
The group shot into the distance at his command, fleeing the immense battlefield.
After the two beams of Divinity Destroying Light clashed, Essence Genesis and the Six Paths Immortal finally engaged in combat.
The two threw palm strikes with immense, overwhelming force.
Crack!
Gu Hai and the others witnessed the entire world split apart by the two men’s power.
The world broke down the middle?
The flawed immortal firmament already bore countless cracks. The force from the two men was the last straw that broke the camel’s back, triggering a massive chain reaction that ripped the world apart. Surging Void Energy rushed in, and explosions burst forth from countless places across the world.
“We’re going back,” Gu Hai said. “Back to Yellow Springs Road!”
“Yes!” Kong Xuan replied, preparing to return the way they came from.
“Brother-in-Law, it’s not advisable to return via the Yellow Springs Road!” Long Wanyu cautioned.
“Why not?” asked Gu Hai.
“Six Paths only sent a strand of his consciousness here. His consciousness must be guarding the Yellow Springs Sea. He ignored us here because Essence Genesis was holding him back. However, Six Paths won’t let us off once we exit the Yellow Springs Sea,” Long Wanyu explained.
Gu Hai’s pupils constricted at this explanation.
On the other side, the battle between Essence Genesis and the Six Paths Immortal had begun in earnest. The terrifying force, along with the encroachment of Void Energy, had caused the entire flawed immortal firmament to splinter, splitting the sky as though the world was about to shatter.
“Brother-in-Law, I have a ritual array,” Long Wanyu said. “It requires five individuals at the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm to work together. This ritual array will allow us to linger temporarily in the void. Once Essence Genesis and Six Paths finish their battle and leave, we can return. I know how to find our way back.”
Rumble…!
The world around them broke apart. Gu Hai raised his eyebrows and finally nodded in agreement. “We’ll move into the void, away from this battlefield. We’ll follow Wanyu’s plan.”
