Longevity: Beginning from the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 663 Fierce Competition for the Mysterious Woodcutting
The Great Sage Ziji stood frozen in the void, his eyes still holding a resolute and ruthless look, but in an instant, it turned into a sigh and regret.

Within his Purple Palace, the Miro Talisman, which was deeply integrated with his pure Yang form, was also covered with cracks. The nine-colored Miro Treasure Light seemed to have deflated, and wisps of profound and sacred aura rose from the void.

The Mi Luo Talisman is incredibly mysterious, and it seems to have the potential to repair the remnants of the Great Sage Zi Ji's body and forcibly prevent his inevitable demise.

However, the Primordial Divine Embryo, having gathered its power, unleashed the Innate Primordial Boundless Divine Light through the "Primordial True Eye," which possessed extremely exquisite divine power at the Dao Lord level.

The struggle of the Miro Talisman was in vain, and it finally shattered amidst countless cracks.

The Great Sage Ziji opened his mouth as if to speak, but in the end only a few words echoed in the void.

Zi Yuanchu paid homage to Chen Yi and vowed to kill the demons and protect Jiuzhou.

The Big Dipper bestows its talisman, its light piercing through the armor; the Southern Star inscribes the record, its will as sharp as a hook.

I gradually began to doubt the constant laws of Heaven, and secretly felt that the path to immortality was confining my freedom.

Unexpectedly, the wrong path led to its end, leaving only blood and tears to stain the star tower.

Hurrah!

Before the crowd could recover from the regretful words of the Great Sage Ziji, a cluster of leaves shimmering with a hazy light quietly emerged and enveloped the Great Sage Ziji's remains.

Meng Taibai's brow twitched, and with a sweep of his divine sense, he was suddenly startled to realize that the branches of the Taixu Wonder Tree had become much more lush.

The invisible immortal flames around the Crimson Emperor distorted the void, and all the Great Dao Laws that did not belong to his "Dao Seed" were melted down like firewood.

As he raised his hand and conjured a seven-colored fire net to envelop the two who had fallen out of the Primordial Divine Embryo, he looked at the World-Saving Treasure Raft and exclaimed leisurely, "This tree has a spirit. The battle between Dao Lords just now was of great benefit to it, and it also mobilized the power of its own Dreamy and Realistic Dao to dispel our attention."

"As expected of a spiritual root treasure related to the Dao Ancestor! It's clear that Yun Xi's attempt to subdue it was a miscalculation..."

Before he finished speaking, the Crimson Emperor's tail feathers, which were as dazzling as five-colored flames, appeared behind him and instantly converged into a rainbow of light that swept towards Lin Xuanzhi, or rather, the World-Saving Treasure Raft.

Obviously.

Even though the skin of the Savior of Suffering Dao Lord was now cracked and seemed about to shatter, the Crimson Emperor still did not let his guard down regarding Lin Xuanzhi's brilliant performance.

Lingxiao, within the half-illusory, half-real Dharma body of the Crimson Emperor, could only offer a helpless glance.

Lin Xuanzhi sighed softly, and with the help of the limited "Daojun Experience Card", he strengthened the imprints he left in the Three Worlds Bronze Mirror and the Great Void Mystic Tree, while quickly raising his hand and flipping it in front of him.

An ancient, heavy scroll was opened, and the crimson ink on the illusory iron pen in Lin Xuanzhi's hand was dazzling. In a flash, it fell onto one of the pages.

But on that page was written the name, life story, and key moments of the Three Calamities and the Decline Tribulation of the Red Emperor Xuan Kuang, and everything else was there.

"This little thief said, 'I only want to take what I need, yet you dare to use your iron pen to cut my throat and take my life?!'"

The Crimson Emperor couldn't help but shout out, but he never expected that the achievements of the former Central Ghost Emperor would still have such residual power.
In the blink of an eye, the five-colored rainbow light arrived in front of Lin Xuanzhi.

However, in the next instant, the Crimson Emperor's figure suddenly swayed, almost shattering like a shadow, and his divine power, the Innate Five Directions Divine Fire Spell, also became unstable.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xuanzhi flipped his palm and created a dark, deathly shadow that forcibly absorbed the Five Directions Divine Fire Curse and injected it into the Eight Scenery Palace Lantern in front of the Ferry of Salvation.

Before he could even catch his breath, a wisp of sword light, seemingly dormant for a long time, instantly split into countless rays of light, forming a sword array that was about to forcibly separate the World-Saving Treasure Ferry from Lin Xuanzhi.

Ghost Emperor Meng Taibai!
The Red Emperor's actions of trapping Su Xuanchen and Gu Zhenren, followed by his attack by Lin Xuanzhi, undoubtedly created an opportunity for him.

The sword formation unleashed by the Four Decaying Ghost Emperor at full power made Lin Xuanzhi's hair stand on end, even through the tattered skin of the Ghost Emperor.

If he could truly decide life and death with a single stroke, Lin Xuanzhi would have used it on the Great Sage Ziji long ago. All he could do was try to completely sever the connection between the Crimson Emperor's true form and his avatar, and destroy this body.

But clearly, the remaining power of the Dao Fruit is insufficient to accomplish this.

This was partly due to the significant loss of power, but also because the bloodlines of the Crimson Emperor and Lingxiao were too close and their connection too deep.

However, in the face of Meng Taibai's attack, Lin Xuanzhi seemed to have no choice but to avoid its sharp edge.

In an instant, countless thoughts raced through his mind. Lin Xuanzhi simply paused lightly, using the momentum to push the World-Saving Treasure Raft into the dense branches of the Great Void Tree.

The Taixu Wonderful Tree truly accepts everything without being picky, readily embracing anything offered to it, and extending several branches to try and hold back the precious raft that saves the world.

Facing Meng Taibai's sword formation, a phantom fruit condensed, reflecting the figure of an old man in white. With a wave of his hand, a river of sword energy flew out from his sleeve and shattered the sword formation.

"what?"

This move drew attention not only to Meng Taibai but also to Lin Xuanzhi and others.

If the Great Void Tree had such abilities, why did it seem so hesitant about their battle just now?
Lin Xuanzhi's thoughts raced: "Is it because the power of this Ghost Emperor's Dao Fruit was depleted that the Great Void Mystic Tree's fear of its former master has completely disappeared?"

The Crimson Emperor's expression turned slightly solemn, and he transmitted his voice to Yunxi Lingjun, saying, "Use the Fire Phoenix's item, otherwise I'm afraid we really won't be able to do anything to the Taixu Mystic Tree."

In the distance, in the void where the Great Void Tree was rooted, Yunxi Lingjun nodded wearily, took out an ancient and broken earthen-yellow jade axe, and chopped at a certain spot in the void.

A muffled thud resounded in all directions, and in the next instant, the Taixu Mystic Tree seemed to bristle with life, all its branches and leaves standing upright, shimmering with an uncertain, hazy, seven-colored light, as if reflecting the three thousand Great Daos, mesmerizing and intoxicating, making one wish to merge into it. Bone True Man, aided by the Daoist aura of the Primordial Divine Embryo beside him, was not greatly affected. He immediately exchanged a glance with Su Xuanchen and joined Lin Xuanzhi.

At this moment, with the help of the Jade Wheel, Lin Xuanzhi, who was forcibly maintaining the Ghost Emperor's Dharma Body, saw Yun Xilingjun's act of cutting down the tree and directly informed the two seniors, Bone Master.

"An earthen-yellow jade axe? Bearing innate Dao patterns?"

With his rich experience and extraordinary insight, Master Gu understood the reason behind it in the blink of an eye.

"That replica of the innate spiritual treasure, the Mountain-Splitting Axe, is more accurately described as a divine weapon made up of fragments of the Mountain-Splitting Axe."

"No wonder it was able to touch the very essence of the Mystic Tree of the Void, a spiritual root that is both real and illusory."

Su Xuanchen held the Primordial Divine Embryo in his hands, and with the help of its aura, he was able to protect them quite well.

At this point, the alliance between the Xuanmen sects was an open secret, so they naturally had no need to hide it.

“This belongs to the Patriarch of Nanhua. Although he has the virtue of blessing all directions, we disciples do not need to be so magnanimous, but we cannot just watch it fall into the hands of others.”

"I will help you two fight to the best of your ability!"

Lin Xuanzhi pondered these words. Although he felt a little awkward, they were truly honest and loyal!
Before the words were even finished, a formation diagram exuding a terrifying aura of destruction flew out from the inner world of Emperor Su, and at the same time, four magnificent and powerful sword lights of blue, red, black and white, which shook the void and the universe, enveloped the Crimson Emperor.

"The complete Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation? You've mastered it?!?"

Before the Red Emperor could react, Meng Taibai jumped up and cried out in alarm, looking as if his soul had been terrified.

Although the Crimson Emperor did not speak, his expression was more solemn than when he dealt with Lin Xuanzhi's attack.

It's quite normal for a Pure Yang cultivator on Jin'ao Island to master one, two, or even three types of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Qi. It's not impossible for them to master all four types before the Five Decays are over.

However, there has never been a case where four kinds of sword energy were harmonized and perfectly integrated to form an array diagram before the Dao Lord level!

With your abilities, besides the Great Dao Lord and the Fengdu Emperor, you should be the one in charge of the Underworld!

Meng Taibai cursed inwardly and immediately withdrew, becoming extremely cautious, fearing that he might be caught off guard and drawn into the formation.

The Zhuxian Sword Formation contains the wonders of time and space, and the moment the Crimson Emperor was designated as the target, there was no way to avoid it.

The ultimate move of the Dao is always difficult to deal with. Although the Crimson Emperor descended in avatar form, once his body is destroyed by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, his true body will definitely not be in good condition.

This is still due to the extraordinary talent of the Phoenix Clan!
Master Gu lowered his eyes and said, "There is ultimately an anchor point here in the Southern Flame Sea. The Fire Phoenix has probably been waiting for an opportunity to make its move for a while. If we don't drive away the Crimson Emperor first, the two experts from the Phoenix Clan will have to join forces..."

Lin Xuanzhi nodded knowingly, but a sharp, black-and-white glint had already appeared at his fingertips, faintly gathering into a halo of life and death, ready to stir.

Beneath the cracked skin of the Central Ghost Emperor, wisps of Qi continuously steamed out, and within, a faintly visible ethereal plate and an extremely illusory fruit swayed constantly.

Just as Bone Immortal was about to unleash his power on Meng Taibai, his brow twitched upon seeing this: "You can still do it?"

"Row!"

Lin Xuanzhi gritted his teeth and nodded, and then the light wheel at his fingertips suddenly disappeared.

The next instant, however, it appeared at a point where it had previously imprinted the Jade Wheel Mark!
As a crucial node used to anchor this realm, it naturally possesses extraordinary qualities.

With the jade wheel mark as a guide, Lin Xuanzhi's attack was a precise and vital strike!
With the mountain-splitting axe in front and the final blow of the Dao Fruit power behind, a painful lament, seemingly real yet illusory, came from the distant depths, followed by a shattering sound.

In the Ghost City of Haoli below, the two boys from the north and south were not surprised but delighted by what they saw, and immediately felt the invisible constraints outside the world completely dissipate.

"The auspicious hour has arrived; the Netherworld shall rise!"

Having said that, the two boys, their faces flushed red, strained together to pull out a phantom, chaotic, egg-shaped innate object from the void.

Immediately, the two activated their final authority, throwing the people in the Nine Nether Cave Realm out. Then, they rode the Haoli Ghost City and the many large and small worlds and Chaos Chickens that the Salvation Dao Lord had refined, heading towards a certain coordinate in the void universe. There, they gathered and refined in the void, evolving the Three Thousand Great Daos, infinite mysteries and creations.

This is the boundary between life and death, another destination for the deceased, and another stop on the cycle of reincarnation!

It can be called the Great World of Salvation from Suffering in the Ten Directions, or the Immeasurable Dharma Realm of the Nine Netherworlds.

A newly born world of immense scale!
The netherworld's fortune immediately fluctuated and diverged. The main stream remained in the underworld, but more than 30% of it flowed into the lineage of the Savior of Suffering.

The underworld, deep within the eighteen levels of the ghost prison of Fengdu.

A towering figure, surrounded and devoured by demons, trembled slightly and slowly raised its heavy eyes.

"Taiyi...Salvator...Great Heavenly Venerable...?"
