Chapter 1739 The Beginning of a New Path
The Yin-Yang Dao Lord activated the Yin-Yang Dao, transforming it into a large cauldron, which held Li Yanchu upside down inside.

This large cauldron contains countless runes and Dao patterns that flow continuously, like ripples on water.

Everyone around suddenly felt the pressure ease; they could no longer sense the influence of the Yin-Yang Dao on the Dao within their bodies, and all the power was directed at Li Yanchu.

Behind Yin Yang Daojun was a darkness, like a silent cosmic void, with countless caves and abysses floating within it.

The Yin-Yang Daoist sect is more powerful than the Reincarnation Daoist sect in the vast world because the Yin-Yang Dao is one level lower than the Reincarnation Dao, making it easier to cultivate.

The Yin-Yang Daoist sect is extremely powerful, and the Yin-Yang Daoist Lord's cultivation is also incredibly profound.

With his power suppressing Li Yanchu, Li Yanchu's aura weakened considerably while he was inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

The Yin-Yang Cauldron kept shrinking, and Li Yanchu's figure also shrank accordingly, eventually transforming into a cauldron half the height of a person, which suppressed Li Yanchu inside.

Everyone’s eyes lit up!
Jiang Guan Daojun couldn't help but glance at Yin Daojun, thinking to himself, "Those who cultivate the Great Dao of Cause and Effect are indeed extraordinary; they can see the problem at a glance."

He was about to compliment Yin Daojun's discerning eye when the cauldron suddenly trembled.
Dangdang Dangdang!
The giant cauldron flew around the Taiyuan Palace, as if a terrifying force was trying to break free.

Yin Yang Daojun's expression remained unchanged. He mobilized the power of the caves and abysses in the vast universe. The power accumulated over billions of years was extremely terrifying, and the Yin Yang Cauldron gradually returned to calm.

But the next moment, a sharp blade of light appeared, and Li Yanchu broke through the Yin-Yang Cauldron and attacked the Yin-Yang Daojun!
The Yin-Yang Dao Lord frowned slightly.

The Dao of Slaughter is indeed extremely powerful.

He was a whole realm below Li Yanchu, and Li Yanchu had never harvested other universes; he was able to do this solely through his own cultivation, which greatly shocked Yin Yang Daojun.

Yin Yang Daojun said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Li is indeed exceptionally talented."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Yin-Yang Dao was suppressed once again.

The Dao of Slaughter within Li Yanchu's body was extremely pure and could not be transformed.

At this moment, the Yin-Yang Dao Lord mobilized Yin and Yang to endow his Dao of Slaughter with other powers. If it could not be reduced, it would be increased. This was a very clever method.

The Killing Cave behind Li Yanchu seemed to have developed its own consciousness. It operated slowly and not only stopped providing power to Li Yanchu, but also began to absorb Li Yanchu's power!

Everyone gasped in shock at the sight.

Jiang Guan Daojun was shocked: "The Great Dao of Yin and Yang has such a use!"

At this moment, Daoist Siyin of the Yin-Yang Sect also widened his eyes, as if some barrier in his heart had been broken. He had finally glimpsed the mysteries of the Great Dao that he had been searching for for many years!
Li Yanchu frowned deeply. He flipped his palm, took out the divine axe, and swung it directly and without hesitation at the Killing Cave Abyss.
"Sever the Dao!"

This axe blow severed the killing cave behind him, naturally rendering it unable to affect him any further.

Yin Yang Daojun couldn't help but think to himself, "This boy is indeed decisive in killing, but he has destroyed his own foundation, which is extremely unwise."

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, you don't even have a single cave abyss now, what do you have to fight me with?"

Li Yanchu's body was surging with energy, powerful and vigorous.

He glanced at Yin Yang Daojun and said calmly, "Brother Dao's methods are indeed remarkable, surpassing even Samsara and Taishang. I admire you."

Yin Yang Daojun was extremely pleased with what he heard. If it weren't for their different stances, he would have even wanted to drink and chat with Li Yanchu.

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Yin-Yang Daoist sect immediately raised their heads and puffed out their chests.

They felt honored to be praised by such a ruthless and accomplished man as Li Yanchu.

The disciples of the Samsara Dao Sect feel that they are half a step ahead of other Daoist sects, and the source of this lies with the Samsara Dao Lord.

The Samsara Dao they cultivated was one of the nine highest-ranking Daos among the innate Daos, and they were always extremely arrogant. However, Li Yanchu made the Samsara Dao Sect worthless!
Li Yanchu suddenly turned around. Instead of attacking Yin Yang Daojun, he raised his axe and chopped at his own Killing Cave Abyss.

Everyone was immediately taken aback!
Yin Yang Daojun thought to himself, "What? Does he think he can't beat me? Has he gone mad?"

Li Yanchu shattered his own Killing Cave with a single axe stroke.
With a bang! The Great Dao of Slaughter shattered, and a dense aura of slaughter appeared between heaven and earth.

Li Yanchu knew that no matter how much he cultivated his Killing Cave Abyss or how powerful he became, he would ultimately be no match for the accumulation of the Five Great Dao Lords over hundreds of millions of years.

At this moment, when he was fighting against the Yin-Yang Dao Lord, he discovered this flaw and decisively killed him.

As the killing energy gathered, Li Yanchu moved, and the Great Dao within his body became even more fierce!
This scene was strikingly similar to the method used by the powerful being sealed in the bronze coffin in the Tianling Forbidden Zone to absorb free blood energy.

Li Yanchu's actions also shocked Yin Yang Daojun.

Before Yin Yang Daojun could even think things through, Li Yanchu had already rushed forward, his divine axe slashing down, the sharp light cutting into Yin Yang Daojun's Dao field.

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord was also very wary of this innate spiritual treasure. From the cave behind him, one magical weapon after another flew out: bells, tripods, bottles, seals, swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks.

Each magical artifact exuded an extraordinary aura and power. The treasures of the Great Dao Lord were now emerging, possessing boundless power.

boom!
As Li Yanchu swung his divine axe, one after another, the magical treasures of the Great Dao Lords were shattered by him.

The power of innate spiritual treasures is terrifying!
Speaking of which, although Yin Yang Daojun did not have any innate spiritual treasures, he had cultivated for hundreds of millions of years longer than Li Yanchu and had reaped the benefits of the vast universe. The two could be said to have their own advantages.

Of course, overall, Yin Yang Dao Dao Jun is stronger.

One magical artifact after another rushed out, hindering Li Yanchu's movements. The Yin-Yang Dao pressed down overwhelmingly, slowing Li Yanchu's movements and making it increasingly difficult for him to swing his axe.

Yin Yang Daojun smiled and said, "Although the power of innate spiritual treasures is strong, they also require corresponding magical power to activate them. It's a pity that you are still too inexperienced. You can't hold out for long if you destroy your cave."

But Li Yanchu ignored him and swung his axe again with all his might. His blood and qi surged even more violently. Although his power had weakened considerably, he still managed to unleash a powerful axe strike.

This axe strike cleaved through dozens of Dao Lord magic treasures blocking his path, splitting open the Yin-Yang Dao, creating a passage, and directly reaching the Yin-Yang Dao Lord.

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord frowned slightly.
"His resilience is simply too great."

At that moment, he met the axe blow with a palm strike, neutralizing its power.

After the axe cleaved through the magic weapon's power, its strength had already diminished considerably.

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord stretched out a giant hand, instantly sealing off the world around Li Yanchu.

The void itself was sealed and could not be broken.

Yin Daojun thought to himself, "This battle has already come to an end. Li Yanchu was unable to mobilize the killing intent of the universe and could not harm Yin Yang Daojun."

He breathed a sigh of relief, wishing Li Yanchu would die here.

The way Li Yanchu stared at him before he left that day still sends chills down his spine when he thinks about it afterwards.

But at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

Suddenly, Yin Yang Daojun abruptly pulled his hand back, and four of his five fingers were severed, leaving them covered in blood.

This axe strike didn't seem particularly profound, yet its power was astonishing. The Yin-Yang Dao Lord frowned slightly, unleashing his divine power to send the axe flying.

He fully activated the Yin-Yang Dao, and the cultivators of the Yin-Yang Dao Sect in the vast universe immediately felt a large portion of their power being drawn away out of thin air. Some even regressed by a realm, which shows how fierce the Yin-Yang Dao Lord's attack was this time.

With a primordial spiritual treasure knocked away, Yin Yang Daojun launched another attack. Four of his fingers were severed and did not regenerate, which startled him. This meant that Li Yanchu's attack had injured his Dao Body.

But just as Yin Yang Dao Jun made his attack, the killing Dao in front of Li Yan Chu transformed into a divine blade. Li Yan Chu grabbed the hilt and swung the blade down!

The pupils of the Yin-Yang Dao Lord contracted.
This time, the blade flashed and severed his arm as easily as cutting tofu.

His elbow was severed, and blood gushed out instantly.

As the blade fell, Taiyuan Palace fell silent.

Yin Daojun's eyes widened: "Impossible! He actually shattered the Great Dao of a Great Dao Lord with his own Great Dao!"

Li Yanchu was truly a surprise.

When he fought with the Lord of Reincarnation before, Lord Yin was certain that he would never use this move.

"He just realized this, and he realized it on the brink of life and death." Yin Daojun was surprised.

He cultivated the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, and when he looked at Li Yanchu, he felt that the cause and effect on Li Yanchu was like a tangled mess, with no trace to be found and no clue to be found.

Li Yanchu severed Yin Yang Daojun's arm with a single strike, and then slashed at him again.

Upon seeing the sharp blade, the Yin-Yang Dao Lord had no choice but to move away.

Inside the Taiyuan Palace, the two men rose and fell in a fierce battle.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Yanchu unleashed his divine axe, wielding it with the speed of the wind. His moves were extremely fierce, forcing even the Yin-Yang Dao Lord into a series of retreats.

Yin Yang Daojun's expression darkened, and he prepared to repel this innate spiritual treasure again, but the next moment the divine axe in Li Yanchu's hand disappeared.

He seized it again, condensing his killing power into a divine blade and slashing it down.

This strike was incredibly swift, aimed directly at the head of the Yin-Yang Dao Lord.

It has the aura of cutting everything in front of it off!

Yin Yang Dao Jun mobilized his supernatural powers to block, but he was still cut open by Li Yan Chu's sword.

A bloody gash appeared on his neck, dripping with blood. In a hurry, he quickly dodged, and the Yin-Yang Dao spread out in front of him, layer upon layer.

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord looked on with surprise and doubt: "Why has your Dao of Slaughter increased instead of decreased?"

Li Yanchu said calmly, "I'm afraid you'll need to experience this carefully, Brother Dao."

After a moment of silence, Yin Yang Dao Jun slowly said, "There's no need to fight anymore. You are one realm below me, yet I cannot break through your divine power. I have lost this battle."

Yin Yang Daojun sensed the threat posed by Li Yanchu and was unwilling to continue the fight.

Anyway, since the Great Dao of Reincarnation has already lost, one more round won't make a difference.

These words caused an uproar; everyone was stunned and some could hardly believe it.

"The Yin-Yang Dao Lord has admitted defeat, did I hear that right?"

"Li Yanchu's supernatural power is truly amazing. To break through the Great Dao with a supernatural power is simply unheard of!"

“Indeed, once you cultivate to the Immortal Realm, you can wield the Great Dao Divine Power with a mere wave of your hand. How much more so for a Great Dao Lord? Yet Li Yanchu was able to threaten the Yin Yang Great Dao Lord with his divine power. It’s simply terrifying.”

He has already defeated two Great Dao Lords; it's unknown which Great Dao Lord he will challenge next.

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, their gazes toward Li Yanchu a complex mix of emotions: awe, jealousy, envy, and hostility.

Looking at the Yin-Yang Dao Lord who had conceded defeat, Li Yanchu said, "You flatter me. Your Yin-Yang Dao is extremely profound. If we continue fighting, the outcome will be uncertain."

Since Li Yanchu intended to establish a foothold outside the region, he toned down his sharp edge and became much more polite in his speech.

Yin Yang Daojun was extremely pleased and smiled, "Defeat is defeat. Your divine power is enough to kill, but I cannot break through it. I admire you."

The Yin-Yang Dao Lord is extremely arrogant.
The Five Great Dao Lords look down on none of them except for the Dao Master.

He doesn't take either Pangu of yesteryear or the Supreme Dao Lord of today seriously.

Li Yanchu, however, truly impressed him.

"This person's talent is too amazing. If he can join the Holy Domain, it will be a great blessing for our Holy Domain."

The Yin-Yang Dao Master also longs to have such a fellow Daoist, with whom he can discuss Daoist principles in the future. Perhaps his opportunity to break through the Yin-Yang Dao realm lies with Li Yanchu.

Although everyone was extremely envious of Li Yanchu's magical treasures when he descended from the Great Luo Heaven, no one dared to step forward to intercept him.

All their ulterior motives were extinguished, and they could only watch him depart into the distance, descending from the Great Luo Heaven.

Li Yanchu understood the temperaments of these Immortal Dao Lords; they were ruthless and unforgiving when it came to underhanded tactics.

His battle with Yin Yang Dao Jun was extremely taxing, but by killing Fa Dong Yuan and maintaining the purity of the Dao, his aura was somewhat weaker, but his destructive power was even stronger.

He spread his divine sense and did not encounter any pursuers.

Li Yanchu thought to himself, "Back when I defeated Daojun, there were still people who wanted to ambush me. Today, I defeated Yin Yang Daojun, and not a single person dared to come up to me."

He came to the mortal realm to rest for a while. The constant fighting and battles there were very beneficial to his cultivation of the Great Dao of Slaughter. Li Yanchu gained profound insights from this experience.

"I cultivate the Great Dao of Slaughter, so why do I need a cave as a source of power? I am the body of the Great Dao myself."

This time, Li Yanchu gained a new understanding of the Great Dao. He cut off the cave abyss, and the Dao landscape within his body was also cut off one by one, leaving nothing behind.

His body contained only the pure Dao of Slaughter, which made him more acute in his perception of the calamities in the universe.

Having lived in this alien world for only half a year, I already felt somewhat uneasy.

"I cannot easily resonate with this kind of killing tribulation at my level, otherwise I will lose control of the killing tribulation and lose my true nature." Li Yanchu knew the danger involved and kept reminding himself.

There will likely be another great calamity in the foreign lands in the future, but Li Yanchu cannot estimate how much damage it will cause to the outside world.

"I have defeated the two Great Dao Lords, Samsara and Yin Yang. Both of these battles have been very beneficial to me. It is indeed only in the face of life and death that one can hone the Great Dao of Slaughter."

Li Yanchu thought.

He vaguely sensed that he was walking a new path, but it was not clear yet and he needed to keep honing his skills to verify it.
