Chapter 1783 Slaughtering the Dao Lord

Yun Taicang's strike contained the power of killing, making it extremely fierce.

Its killing power was so great that even the three Great Dao Lords were unwilling to fight it head-on.

But Li Yanchu is the true master of the Dao, while Yun Taicang is merely using the power of a magical artifact.

At this moment, he slashed forward with his sword. Li Yanchu did not move, but swung his sword to meet the attack. The sword light flashed back, stunningly beautiful, and pierced the sky.

Yun Taicang did not expect that Li Yanchu would not dodge or avoid a direct confrontation with him.

"This kid is far too arrogant. So what if you've cultivated the Nine Paths of the Innate Realm!"

Yun Taicang swung his sword down, but although Li Yanchu's sword light did not cut through the innate spiritual treasure, the Immortal Slaughtering Blade, it passed through and struck Yun Taicang directly in the chest!
Yun Taicang's attack was immediately stopped, and a bloodstain appeared on his chest, which contained not only killing power but also the annihilation of calamity!

The latter two caused Yun Taicang's expression to change drastically.

Yun Taicang stood on the cloud, sword in hand, looking at Li Yanchu with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

That strike was so stunning that even he was momentarily stunned.

Li Yanchu said coldly, "Come on, let's see if we can kill another Dao Lord of the Hong Realm today!"

Yun Taicang shouted, "With your mere Great Dao Lord strength, you dare to contend against the Hong Realm!"

Li Yanchu feigned surprise and said, "Hongjie? I seem to remember that Hongjie was destroyed. I saw it with my own eyes. Where is Hongjie now?"

Enraged, Yun Taicang charged directly at Li Yanchu.

Li Yanchu's nine innate Daos circulated in a cycle, as he fought against Yun Taicang.

Yun Taicang's strength was indeed far superior to that of the Dao Lord. At this moment, Li Yanchu felt the pressure increase as he fought against him.

However, Yun Taicang was also somewhat surprised.

Li Yanchu's cultivation level was nothing to him, but his Nine Cycles were indeed difficult to kill.

The two fought for dozens of moves, and Yun Taicang was slashed twice more by Li Yanchu, once in the abdomen and once in the thigh.

But Li Yanchu was in a truly perilous situation.

With a thought, Yun Taicang created thirty or forty illusory images of vast universes behind him. After activating them, his cultivation level surged.

Yun Taicang slashed down, and Li Yanchu blocked it with his Heavenly Blade of Slaying Dao, but it was immediately shattered.

The knife struck Li Yanchu's shoulder hard, drawing blood.

Li Yanchu was nearly cleaved in two by that blade!

Yun Taicang was filled with murderous intent, determined to cleave Li Yanchu in two!
After Li Yanchu's Heavenly Blade of Slaying Dao shattered, it reformed, for it was originally an invisible blade.

At this moment, he activated the Nine Cycles to heal the injury.

However, this blade was simply too powerful, and the nine cycles he had currently comprehended were not enough to completely neutralize it.

Yun Taicang also noticed this; blood dripped from the tip of his knife, extremely conspicuous.

"You brat! I will kill you to avenge Lord Yu."

Li Yanchu shouted, "Yun Taicang, I need your help to attain enlightenment!"

The pressure from Yun Taicang was far greater than that from the Dao Lord; if he was not careful, he would die at Yun Taicang's hands.

But Li Yanchu did not back down at all; instead, he went back to fight.

After exchanging several more blows, Li Yanchu was struck by Yun Taicang's blade, nearly disemboweled.
Before long, the blade flashed across his neck, slicing it in half, leaving it dripping with blood.

Seizing the opportunity, Yun Taicang unleashed his Immortal Slaughtering Blade, slashing down at Li Yanchu's head with a chilling glint in its blade.

If this deadly magical weapon were to strike, Li Yanchu would die instantly.

This strike not only sealed off all of Li Yanchu's changes, but also froze all of time and space, making it unavoidable.

Just then, the killing energy from the alien realm suddenly surged and rushed in!

A spiritual light danced around Li Yanchu, and in an instant, it seemed as if some shackle within him had been broken!

This powerful aura caused Yun Taicang to frown slightly.

His seemingly inevitable, deadly strike was ultimately intercepted by Li Yanchu.

clang!
The sound of metal clashing rang out, and the invisible blade in Li Yanchu's hand suddenly transformed into a tangible object.

As the two forces clashed, Yun Taicang was forced back several steps by the immense force of the recoil, with the space beneath his feet shattering with each step.

Yun Taicang's Immortal-Slaying Blade was undamaged, as was Li Yanchu's Heaven-Slaying Blade.

Yun Taicang's pupils contracted.

Slaughter the Dao Lord!
Li Yanchu was also filled with emotion, finally breaking through the killing and attaining enlightenment under the terrifying pressure of Yun Taicang.

The extremely narrow and long Heavenly Blade in his hand had a gleaming white blade that reflected his face.

Li Yanchu gripped the knife with remarkable stability, his cultivation of the Dao of Slaughter still steadily improving.

Yun Taicang's heart stirred.
"He has just attained enlightenment, and his realm is unstable. We absolutely cannot allow him to truly cultivate into the Lord of Slaughter!"

He was experienced and seized the opportunity to attack, his Immortal Slayer Blade slashing down with extreme killing intent.

Li Yanchu immediately countered, but his moves were unremarkable and unremarkable.
But it was just a few ordinary strikes that actually forced this Lord of the Hong Realm to retreat!
Not only that, but a cross-shaped wound appeared on Yun Taicang's chest, the blade piercing the bone, and blood was dripping from it.

His hand, which was gripping the Immortal Slayer Blade, was nearly severed at the elbow, leaving it covered in blood.

Li Yanchu said calmly, "Here are yours for the stabs."

Yun Taicang's pupils contracted: "Is the Lord of Slaughter really this strong?"

He looked on in disbelief.

Li Yanchu had clearly just become a Dao Lord, at most in the early stage of Dao Lord, yet he was so strong!

At this moment, he felt as if he were facing the three great Dao Lords from beyond the realm, and he was extremely wary of them.

Of course, Yun Taicang's strength still surpassed Li Yanchu's, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a desire to retreat.

He still has many important things to do, and his useful life cannot be wasted here.

At this moment, Yun Taicang had completely forgotten his earlier fierce ambition to avenge Master Yu, and soared into the sky with the Immortal Slaughtering Blade.

He had a vague worry, a fear that the fighting might continue.
If this ultimate weapon falls into Li Yanchu's hands, he will truly lose both his wife and his army.

Li Yanchu did not pursue him. Although he could injure Yun Taicang, he was not confident that he could kill him. At this moment, it was more important to stabilize his Dao.

In this battle, under the pressure of life and death, he broke through, and his cultivation became exceptionally powerful, with most of the Dao structures within his body disappearing.

The Dao Lord himself is composed of the Great Dao.

From this moment on, everything about race and bloodline lost its meaning; only the pure Dao remained.

"So this is the Dao Lord realm."

Li Yanchu nodded slightly.

Becoming the Lord of Slaughter was of great significance to him, but it was not the end of the Dao.

The three great masters of the foreign lands remain like an insurmountable mountain.

They have refined countless universes and possess numerous innate spiritual treasures, making them extremely powerful.
Even if Yun Taicang, who was just startled by Li Yanchu, were to actually fight to the death, the outcome would be unpredictable. His cultivation level and the number of universes he has refined surpass Li Yanchu's.

Li Yanchu's strength lies in his mastery of the Dao through ruthless killing, and the supernatural power he comprehended, the Dao-Slaying Blade, is extremely domineering. When unleashed through the Dao-Slaying Heavenly Blade, it adds even more killing intent.

Li Yanchu looked at the Heaven-Slaying Blade in his hand, and a thought flashed through his mind.
"The void creates all things, and the primordial chaos serves as its sheath."

Hongmeng was the starting point of the nine paths chosen by Li Yanchu.

This Dao is extremely stable. Li Yanchu used the Primordial Purple Qi as a sheath to nurture the killing intent of this sword. Once it is drawn, its light shines even brighter and its killing intent is even stronger.

Li Yanchu then hung the long sword on his waist.

He glanced down at the chaotic sea of ​​stars, pressed down with his palm, and the seawater parted to both sides.

The Dao Master died here, and the Great Dao shattered between heaven and earth. Unable to resist the power of the chaotic star sea, it was almost completely washed away.

"It's cleaned up in the Star Sea, so it's not too bad. I hope it won't be swallowed by the chaotic creatures again and become a future problem," Li Yanchu muttered to himself.

Li Yanchu had not forgotten Jing Qingdao, the Daoist Master who had been swallowed by the chaotic creature.
Now it has actually revived within the body of a chaotic creature, and it's unknown when it will fully awaken.
By then, his level of power will probably be even more terrifying.

...............

Cuiwei City in the mortal realm.

The land is ravaged by war, with constant battles and attacks. Countless lives and cultivators have perished in the fighting.

In a courtyard in Cuiwei City, a flash of light appeared, and a tall old man appeared.

The Lord of Yanfu and Dao Xiyi walked over.

Dao Xiyi asked, "Brother Taicang, where is Fellow Daoist Yu?"

Yun Taicang sighed, "I was too late; I couldn't save him."

Dao Xiyi and Yanfu Daozhu were both somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

Dao Xiyi asked in astonishment, "Did Master Ying kill him or Guo Huchan?"

The speed of the Great Dao of Reincarnation is unparalleled, yet even the Dao Master could not escape it!

Dao Xiyi was extremely shocked at this moment.

Yun Taicang shook his head and said, "Neither. He was killed by Li Yanchu."

Dao Xiyi exclaimed, "Li Yanchu? How is that possible! He's just a Dao Lord."

Yun Taicang Dao Master sighed, "He has already attained the Dao of Slaughter Dao Master."

"What!?" Both Yanfu Dao Master and Dao Xiyi were shocked upon hearing this.

Yun Taicang said, "I fought with him and he slashed me several times. I'm ashamed to say that he was at the peak of his power today and could have killed me, which is why I retreated."

Upon hearing this, Dao Xiyi immediately felt that it was somewhat absurd.

He had great respect for Yun Taicang, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel a little skeptical.

Dao Xiyi frowned and said, "The alien realm is already on the verge of a calamity, how could a Dao Lord possibly be born there?"

Yun Taicang said, "I don't know either. There's another point: when he killed Fellow Daoist Yu, he wasn't a Dao Lord; he killed Fellow Daoist Yu at the level of a Great Dao Lord!"

Dao Xiyi was even more shocked and said in disbelief:
"What did you say? A Dao Lord's realm is enough to kill Fellow Daoist Yu!"

"Was Fellow Daoist Yu injured by Daoist Ying or Guo Huchan earlier?"

Yun Taicang pondered for a moment and said, "He has already cultivated the Nine Paths of the Innate Realm, and the Nine Paths are in a cycle. Fellow Daoist, you will definitely not be able to withstand his attack and will perish as a result."

Dao Xiyi's pupils contracted: "Nine cycles?!"

Yun Taicang said, "Later, during our fight, he took the opportunity to break through to the Dao Lord level and injured me as well."

After a moment of silence, Dao Xiyi slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and sighed, "I never thought he would become so powerful."

Recalling the domineering nature of Li Yanchu's previous strike, Dao Master Yun Taicang sighed and said, "This boy is incredibly talented. If he were to become a Dao Master, he would be a great danger to us."

Dao Xiyi's face was as still as water.

“The Hong Realm has been destroyed and is now in a state of annihilation. We have also lost another fellow Daoist. When will those other fellow Daoists finally show themselves?” Yun Taicang said.

“They went to the Great Thousand Universe to cultivate in advance in order to preserve their inheritance. I think it’s about time,” Dao Xiyi said.

But now that the Hong Realm has been destroyed, what is there to fear? Find an opportunity to assassinate the three Dao Lords and avenge our grievances!
Everyone was extremely unwilling at this moment.

The three Dao Lords acted at an excellent time; otherwise, if all the Dao Lords of the Hong Realm had returned, they would have had the power to resist.

...............

Above the chaotic sea of ​​stars, a ship sailed towards the ferry. The ferry was in chaos, and the intensity of the checks was reduced. The checks on this ship were not very thorough.

A young man stood on the boat, dressed in a black robe embroidered with golden cloud patterns. His eyes were cold. He had not left immediately after arriving in this foreign land, but was waiting for something near the ferry.

Soon, another boat arrived at the ferry crossing.

This was a burly man with his hair styled into small braids, giving him an air of arrogance and wildness.

His shirt was slightly open, revealing his steel-like muscles.

His ferocious appearance caused a guard at the ferry crossing to try to question him, but before he could get close, he exploded into a bloody mist. No one dared to stop him, and he quickly disappeared from the ferry crossing.

He nodded slightly to the young man in black robes from before and said, "Fellow Daoist Su Han, you arrived earlier than me."

The young man smiled and said, "I cultivate in the business world, which is closer to the other realm, so I arrived a bit faster. May I ask where Fellow Daoist Qin Yuan is?"

The burly man named Qin Yuan said in a deep voice, "No wonder, I am from the Late Realm, and my journey is longer than yours."

Su Han nodded slightly, and soon, several more people arrived.

There was an old man with ancient clothes and an unusual face, leaning on a cane; there was a graceful and charming woman; and there was a young man with cold eyes and a straight posture.

These were all Dao Lords of the Hong Realm, and they greeted each other after meeting.

After many years apart, they were both very excited to reunite in a foreign land.

Su Han suddenly asked, "Everyone, isn't the Little Celestial Venerable here?"

He looked around but didn't find the Little Celestial Venerable.

The old man with the strange face said, "The Little Celestial Venerable may have arrived long ago."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the old man.

With his hair styled in a small braid and a burly build, Qin Yuan said, "Old Man Dongzhu, explain yourself clearly. Do you know something?"

Dongzhu Weng smiled and said, "When I was cultivating in the Great Thousand Universe, I once encountered the Little Celestial Venerable. That was a hundred years ago. He had already become a Dao Lord by then!"

Everyone was somewhat shocked upon hearing this.

These Dao Lords can rebuild their cultivation at an extremely fast pace, and within a few hundred years they can cross the threshold of Immortality, Dao Lord, and Great Dao Lord to return to Dao Lord status!
But Little Celestial Venerable has only cultivated for a little over three hundred years, which is really too fast.

The beautiful woman then brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, her eyes sparkling.

At this moment, she parted her lips slightly and said softly, "The young Celestial Venerable is incredibly talented and arrived earlier than us. In that case, we don't need to wait for him. Let's contact Dao Xiyi first and ask about the situation."

Everyone agreed.
