Chapter 613: Deciding Life and Death First
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, mountains were hanging upside down above the sea of clouds, maintaining a long distance from the ground. They were like huge swords hanging in the sky, shocking beyond comparison. At the top of one of the suspended mountains, a group of immortal cultivators was listening to the Dao.
The preacher was none other than the Sword God, and the listeners were all sword immortals. All of them were surrounded by flying swords with fierce auras.
The Sword God ended the sermon and allowed the sword immortals to ask questions.
“Senior, since the Dao Yan is coming, can us sword immortals obtain merit by entering the calamity?” A female sword immortal took the lead to ask. This question was also a concern of other sword immortals.
The Sword God answered, “Since it’s a calamity for the Immortal Dao, there will naturally be merit if we can step forward.”
Another sword immortal asked, “How helpful is merit to the Sword Dao? Is there any hope of reaching the Zenith Heaven Realm?”
“The Zenith Heaven Realm has nothing to do with any path. It is the threshold of the essence of life. Any path can lead you to the Zenith Heaven Realm, including merit. But on the other hand, any path might not lead you to the Zenith Heaven Realm.”
The Sword God’s words had a sense of fatalism, but he did not determine the fate of the sword immortals present. Therefore, the sword immortals were not affected, and no sword immortals asked if they were qualified to become a Zenith Heaven Immortal.
The result had yet to be decided. All of them felt that there was hope, but they did not know what method was faster.
This sermon lasted for a day before the sword immortals bowed and left.
The Sword God jumped out of the hanging mountain and the world spun. He stood proudly above the sea of clouds. He raised his right hand and flying swords flew out from the inverted mountains, causing the world to tremble. Soon after, swords flew out from the ground below. All of them emitted light of extraordinary quality.
He looked into the sky as if he was prepared to face something.
On the other side.
West Heaven.
In the Thunder Temple, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and other existences flew out and lined up in two rows, forming an extremely long queue.
After the Future Buddha flew out, all the Buddhas raised their heads, the Bodhisattvas bowed, the Arhats, the envoys, and the Buddhist ministries knelt down. Behind the Future Buddha was the Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor had already cultivated his golden body, and his entire body emitted endless divine might. There was no mercy between his brows, only the majesty that could wipe out all evil.
He stopped in front of the entrance of the Thunder Temple and put his palms together. “Amitabha. My Buddha is merciful, and this mercy is for the beings of the Immortal Dao. Now that the Immortal Dao is in trouble, the Buddhist Sect should stand at the forefront and bear the suffering for all beings. Are you willing to step forward in blood for the Immortal Dao?”
“Amitabha, we will do it!”
All cultivators in the Buddhist Sect answered in unison. There was no perturbation or worry on their faces, only determination.
It was not only the Buddhist Sect. The Nine Absolute Beginning Saints were also preparing for battle. The Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals could pry into fate, and their ability to pry into the future was greater than the Immortal Emperors. Therefore, they already noticed that the Dao Yan was already very close, and an unprecedented world-shocking decisive battle was about to arrive.
Outside the Myriad Gods Support Formation, some immortal cultivators had already started fighting with the Dao Yan cultivators.
Most of those Dao Yan cultivators were equivalent to scouts, but some were here for their own benefits. Almost all of them were cultivators with low status. They did not know how powerful the Immortal Dao was, nor did they know of the Dao Yan’s plan. They only knew that the Dao Yan wanted to deal with the Immortal Dao, and by following the call, they might be able to make a name for himself or even plunder treasures.
In the Purple Cloud Palace.
When Bai Qi saw Jiang Changsheng getting up, she immediately moved over and nervously asked, “Is the Lord of the Dao Yan coming?”
Right now, the Immortal Emperors were scattered throughout the boundless world, and there were also Tong Ci and Tong Xue. The news that the Lord of Dao Yan had personally come had long spread. Even though her master would win every time, she was still nervous when she heard about the strength of the enemy.
This nervousness did not stem from fear, but from excitement. She was happier than anyone to see her master display his might again.
She had already prayed in her heart that the Lord of the Dao Yan would come soon so that she could weave a new myth.
“Yes, soon.”
Jiang Changsheng whispered and began to stretch his muscles.
18 million Heavenly Dao incense points!
What a powerful opponent!
In terms of the strength value, Jiang Changsheng was slightly inferior. However, as long as it was not twice as high as him, he would not panic. If he were not so cautious, he could still give it a try in the face of enemies with several times his strength value, but he did not dare to.
The Zenith Heaven Immortals had his protection, but there was no one protecting him. Therefore, he had to choose his opponent carefully.
“Master, Dao Lord Nirvana has been in close contact with the Martial Dao recently. Do you need me to teach him a lesson?” Bai Qi asked.
She narrowed her eyes and her expression turned cold. At this juncture, it was hard not to think about the past relationship between Dao Lord Nirvana and the Martial Dao.
Jiang Changsheng replied, “It’s fine. His heart still belongs to the Immortal Dao. About the Martial Dao, we are not people who hit someone when they are down. And it seems like the Martial Dao still has a backbone. After this battle, cultivators of the Martial Dao are allowed to enter the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. You can also communicate with the Martial Dao forces at will.”
Bai Qi’s talent was weak, but she had reached the strength of a top Immortal Emperor with her Blessing Dao. Her strength was enough to sweep across the Martial Dao forces. Even if one considered that Bai Qi’s strength could not be judged by her realm, it would be difficult for the Martial Dao to kill her.
Hearing this, Bai Qi seemed to be in deep thought. Her eyes began to light up as if she had thought of something.
Jiang Changsheng could hear her thoughts. She was brewing some sinister plans, and he did not stop her. It was fine as long as the result was good.
On the other side.
Outside the Myriad Gods Support Formation, in a small world, Dao Lord Nirvana was talking to a group of martial artists. This time, even the ancient ancestor of the Martial Dao was here.
The ancient ancestor of the Martial Dao had lived for countless years. He had lived from the beginning of the Martial Dao until now. Even though he was not the Martial Ancestor who created the Martial Dao, he was still one of the oldest martial artists. He was also the leader of the Martial Dao in the boundless world. He was usually in seclusion to prolong his life as much as possible.
The ancient martial ancestor supported himself with a crutch with both hands and slowly opened his turbid eyes. He looked at Dao Lord Nirvana and said, “After you’re done talking about the Dao Ancestor, let’s talk about the Immortal Dao. I’m willing to believe that the Dao Ancestor is really that powerful, but I’m curious about how the Immortal Dao developed in the Endless Void. You should know best among everyone present.”
The expression in Dao Lord Nirvana’s eyes changed slightly before he sighed. “The rise of the Immortal Dao is indeed unbelievable, stranger than any transcendent orthodoxy. However, if we attribute everything to the strength of the Dao Ancestor, then it would be understandable.”
He recounted the trajectory of the Immortal Dao that he had learned, and the general situation was the same as what Cangshi Heaven had said. However, Dao Lord Nirvana explained in more detail, and the martial artists were gradually shocked.
Wu Ji was also shocked.
If the Dao Ancestor was not even two million years old and was a native of the Endless Void, then his talent…
He could not believe it, but his impression of the Dao Ancestor was changing.
He increasingly realized that he was not worthy of being the Dao Ancestor’s opponent.
Such an expert, such a talent, what kind of destiny did he have to compete with him?
Just as War Divine Saint was about to ask, he was suddenly interrupted. A vast pressure descended and Dao Lord Nirvana’s expression changed as he disappeared.
What speed!
Cangshi Heaven was secretly shocked. How many years had it been for his disciple to be so powerful?
Zenith Heaven…
Cangshi Heaven’s heart inexplicably trembled.
“Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Dao, show yourself!”
A domineering voice sounded. Their tone was unyielding and unquestionable.
This shout caused the blood of everyone outside the Myriad Gods Support Formation to surge as they looked in the direction of the voice in disbelief.
In the depths of the void, a source of dazzling light was expanding, like a bright sun that was constantly expanding. As they drew closer, they saw flames surging and two mighty figures slowly stepped out, as if they had crossed the long river of time and space. Their figures emitted divine might and domineering aura, just like two war gods from the ancient times.
A circle of light of various sizes began to appear around the bright light. The entire void seemed to have been pierced and a large number of Yan soldiers flew out. The scene was so shocking that even Dao Lord Nirvana was shocked.
“What a powerful aura… They are definitely not Yan Saints…”
Dao Lord Nirvana stared intently at those two figures. For some reason, he recalled the battle where the Dao Ancestor killed Great Desire Yan Saint. At that time, the pressure of Great Desire Yan Saint was equally terrifying and was even slightly inferior.
Behind him, in the direction of the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, the void twisted and figures quickly flew out. Leading them were the Zenith Heaven Immortals, followed by the Immortal Emperors of various sects. Each of them held a magical weapon and fearlessly looked at the army of the Dao Yan that far outnumbered them.
Cultivators came to the void one after another, all frightened by the size of Dao Yan’s army.
“They’ve really come out in full strength!”
“It seems like the Dao Yan is serious.”
“Are those two people Yan Saints, or is one of them the Lord of Dao Yan?”
“I’m afraid not.”
“The Dao Yan’s foundation is beyond our imagination… Are we really going to participate in the war? In the face of such power, I’m afraid we can’t help the Immortal Dao at all. We will only die meaninglessly…”
The martial artists discussed and all of them panicked. Even the Divine Saints panicked.
Back then, the strength of Great Desire Yan Saint had made them despair. Now that two existences stronger than Great Desire Yan Saint had appeared, how could they remain calm?
Wu Ji turned to look in the direction of the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. He wanted to hear how the Dao Ancestor would deal with it.
Soon, an indifferent voice sounded from the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. It seemed to come from the end of time without the slightest fluctuation of emotion. “You are a little anxious. Why don’t we find a place to decide life and death first to avoid implicating innocent lives?”
To decide life and death first!
Just these words allowed the listeners to understand the unyieldingness of the Dao Ancestor.
In the face of the Dao Yan’s full strength, the Dao Ancestor did not panic in the slightest. Instead, he revealed killing intent.
“They must witness the fate of the enemy who stopped the Dao Yan. No matter how strong they are, as long as they provoke the Dao Yan, they will be miserable!”
“That’s right, isn’t it, lord?”
The two figures sang the same tune. As soon as their voices fell, an even more majestic and huge figure appeared behind them. In front of this figure, they could only reach his waist, let alone match his aura.
The Lord of the Dao Yan!
The three of them could not be seen in the strong light, but their physiques were enough to make everybody in the void despair. Even the immortal cultivators in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm and the Spirit Realm could see their physiques.
The Myriad Gods Support Formation could not completely conceal their strength!
“Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Dao, tell me, where are you from?”
A cold voice sounded and white flames appeared around him, quickly forming a domineering and mighty armor, making his aura even more terrifying!
