Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

A century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, the void trembled, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable strain. The eastern boundary wall of the Netherworld Blood Realm rippled violently once again.

"Om-!"

A deep rumble came from beyond the boundary, and billions of thunderbolts were brewing in the depths of chaos. Then, a blazing white light streak spanning hundreds of thousands of miles suddenly split open, its edges burning with eternal and inextinguishable divine flames, scorching and domineering, burning away all laws—the Blazing Divine Realm has returned!
Hundreds of millions of divine ships, like a migrating constellation, surrounded three majestic main ships of different shapes, slowly emerging from the crack, their overwhelming pressure engulfing the sky.

At the core of the left-wing fleet, on the bow of an ancient ship shaped like a golden crow spreading its wings, stood a divine general clad in crimson-gold dragon-patterned divine armor, his aura as scorching as a furnace. His fiery spear emitted light that could burn stars. This was none other than the vanguard commander of the Blazing God Realm—the Flame Emperor Divine General.

The voice of the Fiery Emperor General was as loud as a bell, resounding throughout the void: "Form the formation! The Heaven-Burning Flame Formation, refine this realm!"

The divine ships under his command responded to the call, their divine runes intertwining, and boundless divine flames erupting, instantly weaving into a blazing white sea of ​​fire that covered the entire star field. Within the sea of ​​fire, fiery dragons surged and fire phoenixes cried out, and endless light and heat converged into a destructive torrent, fiercely eroding the barriers of the Netherworld Blood Realm.

The boundary wall was violently distorted, and the boundary membrane flickered.

Almost simultaneously, a chilling aura descended from the void on the right wing, and countless azure ice crystals condensed out of thin air. A fleet entirely forged from millennia-old mysterious ice quietly emerged, led by a colossal ship shaped like the head of a ferocious ice dragon.

On the bridge, a female general clad in ice crystal bone armor, her face shrouded in a chilling aura, indifferently raised her hand, her voice icy and piercing: "Eternal Frozen Starfield, Freeze!"

It was the Frost God General, the vanguard commander of the Frost God Realm, whose fleet invoked the laws of extreme cold. The chilling aura and the blazing white sea of ​​fire were clearly distinct yet subtly echoed each other. Where ice and fire intertwined, the void emitted a faint cracking sound, and the pressure on the boundary wall increased sharply.

"Hahahaha! How could such a grand event be complete without me!"

A wild laugh was accompanied by a deafening thunderclap. In the void in the middle, lightning flashed and a huge warship, seemingly formed from pure lightning and shaped like the eye of Thor, burst out of the sky.

Standing atop the ship was a burly divine general clad in a purple lightning-clad battle robe, his hair and beard bristling, wielding a warhammer crackling with destructive lightning—the vanguard commander of the Thunder Punishment Divine Realm, the Thunder God General. He raised his warhammer high, summoning countless golden bolts of lightning: "Nine Heavens Thunder, break!"

The Destruction God Lightning crashed down like an inverted celestial river, forming a tripod with the Burning Heaven Flame Array and the Eternal Frozen Starfield. The three completely different supreme laws slowly merged under some mysterious pull, forming a huge three-colored light wheel that pressed down on the boundary wall.

"Zi la——!"

The moment the triadic light wheel touched the boundary wall, the tough boundary wall was melted and torn apart like butter under a hot knife, and a huge passage running east to west with three colors of divine light flowing endlessly inside was forcibly opened!
Behind the passage, a terrifying will faintly emanated, the distant gaze of a realm lord-level being.

"Three Phases Divine Realm..."

Atop the tower of Zhenyouming City, Mingyue, clad in silver armor covered in frost, watched as a torrent of data surged within his golden eyes, instantly analyzing the terrifying power contained within the passage barrier: "The combined forces of the three vanguards, resonating with the laws, have begun to form the rudimentary form of a domain... It must not be allowed to solidify!"

Mingyue's eyes narrowed, and she lightly raised her jade hand, instantly sending a chilling divine thought throughout the entire Netherworld Blood Realm: "Enemy attack! The Three-Phase Allied Forces have breached the boundary! Yin-Yang Reincarnation Puppet Army, engage!"

The next moment, deep within the Zhenyou Ming City, hundreds of metal halls simultaneously emitted a low rumble. The hall doors opened, and one after another, new puppets, each twenty feet tall and swirling with chaotic energy and black and white colors, marched out in formation with heavy steps.

The puppet's eyes are contrasting: the left eye is bright white, brimming with vitality; the right eye is deep and dark, radiating a sense of death and solitude. The two energies of life and death circulate within the body, forming an invisible field of balance.

With a single step, Mingyue arrived at the front of the army's formation: "Spearhead formation, advance! Use the power of rotation to disrupt their law resonance!"

The 100,000 Yin-Yang Revolving Puppets all raised their heads, their eyes blazing with black and white light. Their steps shook the void, transforming into a massive chaotic arrow that crashed headlong into the three-colored boundary passage.

Almost simultaneously, the vanguard elites of the three-way allied forces surged out of the passage like a tidal wave.

"How dare an ant block your way? Fiery Dragon Burns the Heavens!"

Yanhuang Divine General roared, pointed his flaming spear, and nine thousand-foot-long flaming dragons with fully scaled armor rushed out from the Burning Heaven Flame Formation, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced.

"The world is frozen."

The Frost God's tone remained icy. With a flick of his finger, countless giant swords of dark blue ice crystals condensed within the frozen star field, carrying a chilling aura that could freeze souls, and crashed down with a deafening roar.

"Thor's Wrath!"

The Thunder God laughed wildly and swung his warhammer. Hundreds of thick, purple-gold divine lightning bolts, as thick as buckets, descended from the Nine Heavens Thunder Prison, lashing fiercely at the puppet army formation like whips wielded by the Thunder God.

The three-pronged offensive swept across the land, instantly engulfing the vanguard of the Yin-Yang Revolving Puppet Army.

"The cycle of Yin and Yang turns, and all things return to their origin!"

Mingyue stood at the center of the formation, his hands forming a seal, and the Chaos Puppet Domain was fully unleashed, a hazy halo enveloping the entire army.

The 100,000 Yin-Yang Rotating Puppets simultaneously activated the core puppet pattern, causing the black and white energies on their bodies to flow rapidly, transforming into a two-colored vortex.

A blazing dragon crashed into the vortex, and the violent fire element was quickly decomposed and neutralized by the life and death energies; a chilling ice sword pierced the puppet's body, and the extreme cold power was dissolved and melted by the flowing warm current of life; a violent divine thunderbolt struck, and the destructive lightning energy was diverted by the deathly light and directed into the void.

The first wave of devastating combined attack was actually withstood by these 100,000 puppets in such a bizarre way.

"Hmm? It actually managed to neutralize our combined attack?" Yanhuang God Venerable frowned.

A flicker of emotion flashed in the Frost God General's icy eyes. The Thunder God General's maniacal laughter subsided, replaced by a solemn expression.

"Let's see how much you can swallow! Flame God Spear, break!" The Flame Emperor General personally took action, his flame spear transforming into a stream of crimson-gold fire that pierced through the void, heading straight for the bright moon.

"Mystic Ice Finger." The Frost God General pointed his fingers like a sword, and a wisp of faint yet imbued with the essence of absolute zero blue light struck the moon's brow first.

"Thunderstorm Strike!" The Thunder God General slammed down his warhammer, unleashing a dark lightning bolt condensed to its extreme, which, like a poisonous dragon emerging from its lair, struck the core of the puppet army formation.

The three attacks, imbued with the primordial power of the divine generals, have already caused the Great Dao to hum, and with the initial blessing of the Three Phases Divine Realm, their power has multiplied.

Data within Mingyue's golden eyes refreshed rapidly, instantly deducing the trajectories and energy nodes of the three attacks, as well as the fragile resonance connection between them.

"Now! Yin and Yang are reversed, calamity begins!" Mingyue suddenly activated the Chaos Puppet Domain, and the core furnaces of 100,000 Yin-Yang Revolving Puppets simultaneously operated at overclocked speed. The black and white energies on their bodies clashed and annihilated at an unprecedented speed, bursting out a hazy gray light, as if returning to the chaotic light before the creation of heaven and earth!
The chaotic light, like an invisible wave, instantly met the attacks of the three divine generals.

"Swoosh... Boom!"

At the point where the light converged, the fiery spear's momentum faltered, and its light dimmed; the icy finger's beam seemed to sink into a quagmire, and its chill diminished sharply; the dark lightning seemed to be distorted by an invisible force, deviating from its trajectory.

The chaotic light clashed violently with the primal power of the three divine generals, causing the void to explode like a lake tossed with a boulder, creating visible ripples of destruction. The power of Yin and Yang reversal forcefully disrupted the fragile balance of the Three-Phase Divine Realm. The crimson-gold flames of the Flame Emperor Divine General flickered erratically, the trajectory of the Frost Emperor Divine General's icy finger beams veered off course, and the dark lightning of the Thunder Emperor Divine General scattered wildly, instantly turning several nearby divine ships that could not dodge in time into ashes.

"Stabilize the formation! Rotate the three phases!"

The Fiery General roared, his divine flames soaring into the sky as he forcefully guided the power of the Heaven-Burning Flame Array, attempting to mend the momentary chaos.

However, the Netherworld Blood Realm has been preparing for this moment for a hundred years!
"All primordial spirits of the realms, heed my command! The Star-Slaying Immortal Array—activate!"

Xiao Jingtian's voice was like the clash of cold iron from the heavens, piercing through layers of void and resounding throughout the countless array bases that had already been set up at the edge of the Blood Realm, relying on the remaining stars and void barriers.

Om-!
In an instant, the vast expanse of space was filled with countless bright spots of light.

The silent star debris, the suspended meteorite belt, and even the refined fragments of the realm all simultaneously lit up with dazzling Dao patterns.

Thick, towering beams of light, annihilating death rays, Gengjin sword energy, and torrents of scorching fire... carrying the immense power of countless realms converging together, burst forth from every corner of the void!

The boundless profound light and Daoist techniques wove a giant net of destruction, covering the vanguard of the Three-Phase Allied Forces, whose formation had become slightly scattered due to the disturbance of the laws.

The Calamity of Profound Light is the Calamity of Death.

"No!"

Yanhuang Divine General's pupils shrank abruptly. He only had time to hold the Flame Spear horizontally in front of him. The blazing white divine flame shield had just lit up when he was hit head-on by a gray-white mysterious light mixed with the energy of annihilation and Geng metal!

"Boom!!!"

The shield shattered like fragile glass, and the Flame Emperor God General was struck by a star. His crimson dragon-patterned divine armor shattered inch by inch, and he spat out a mouthful of golden-red divine blood. His body flew back like a meteor, crashing through several divine ships that followed closely behind. His divine flames dissipated, and his fate was unknown.

The Frost God General and the Thunder God General were simultaneously struck by several beams of profound light comparable to a strike from a Dao Realm expert. The icy bone armor rapidly melted under the impact of the extreme light beams; the Thunder God General's thunder hammer was struck by a pure annihilation beam of death light, the hammer groaned, the lightning dimmed, and the general himself was splattered with blood in the sky, his aura instantly weakening.

His vanguard fleet suffered a devastating annihilation.

The starlight rained down like a storm, and the divine ship's shields, under such dense and powerful attacks, shattered one after another like bubbles in the sunlight; the ship's hull was torn apart, melted through, and exploded into burning fragments all over the sky by the starlight.

The Fiery Dragon howled and collapsed, the Ice Sword shattered into dust, and the Thunder Serpent was annihilated by the raging psionic energy. In just a few breaths, the vanguard fleet was lost by more than half, the wreckage blocked the boundary passage, and the flames of the explosion illuminated that star field as if it were daytime.

"Good! Extend the formation to suppress the mysterious light and cut off their reinforcements!"

Xiao Jingtian stood on the bridge of the Lieyu, his black armor gleaming coldly under the light of the command aura, and continued to give orders.

The Star Array shone brightly, its destructive beams piercing through the remaining enemy forces and slamming into the entrance of the three-colored boundary passage, attempting to block the main force of the Three-Phase Allied Army from emerging outside the passage.

However, once the Three-Phase Divine Realm was established, its foundation far exceeded expectations; deep within the passage, a terrifyingly powerful will suddenly descended.

"How dare an ant's brilliance rival the moon's radiance?"

The icy intent, almost tangible, forcibly halted the surging torrent of profound light for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, three distinct yet equally vast forces surged forth from the passage: one was a pure white divine flame that burned the starry sea, another was a dark blue icy tide that froze eternity, and the third was a purple-gold thunder prison that judged all realms.

The three forces intertwined, transforming into a giant hand that covered the Milky Way. The three colors rotated in the palm, evolving into a scene of earth, water, fire, and wind settling and all things returning to stillness. It pressed down towards the core area of ​​the Star Array. Wherever the giant hand passed, the violent Xuan light was separated and deflected like a gentle stream, making it difficult to reach the main body.

Although the realm lord did not arrive in person, his attack from afar already displayed the power to destroy the world!

The light of the great array dimmed rapidly under the pressure of the giant hand, and the stars and barriers that formed the array's foundation groaned under the strain, cracks spreading.

Mingyue's silver hair danced wildly in the raging energy storm, her golden eyes reflecting the massive, overwhelming hand. Her gaze was sharp as a knife, and with a flick of her jade hand, an ancient and uniquely simple token appeared in her palm.

The token bears only an ancient character "傀" (puppet), emanating an unparalleled Daoist aura that commands all machines and governs the inanimate.

"Myriad puppet masters, heed my command! Countless spirits, fight for me! Open!"

Mingyue poured all her puppet spirit essence into the spirit tablet, and the tablet suddenly burst out with a dark light that could engulf the starry sea. An invisible wave spread across the Netherworld Blood Realm, across all the Linked Realms, and across all the territories covered by the roots of the Chaos Dao Tree at a speed that transcended time and space.

Click, click, click—snap!
In the void, countless portals opened, connecting to the countless warehouses of the Myriad Puppet Heavenly Craft Hall and the Gate of the Weapon Tomb hidden deep within the folded space!
In the next instant, a torrent of steel, sacred wood, metal, and spiritual jade surged forth from nothingness.

What a sight that was!
Puppets of all shapes and sizes, densely packed, filled every inch of the void. There were colossal puppets, towering tens of thousands of feet high, as majestic as mountains, their arms bound with chains that made the stars tremble with each swing; there were spirit-eating puppet worms, as fine as dust, gathering like a sea of ​​sand, silent and capable of easily eroding magical shields; there were golden roc puppets, their wingspans stretching thousands of miles, their claws gleaming with a cold light that could tear through space; there were ghostly puppet guards, lurking in the shadows, their blades aimed straight at the soul…

Countless enormous "Mysterious Gold Puppet Ships," each as large as a small star and entirely forged from Mysterious Gold Divine Jade, their surfaces covered with ferocious cannons, spewed out eerie blue tail flames from their spirit-gathering cores, like migrating metallic nebulae, as they launched a desperate charge towards the location where the boundary passage of the Three-Phase Allied Forces had opened!

The hundreds of millions of puppet troops—this is Mingyue's trump card, one of the ultimate reserves prepared to deal with inter-realm wars, having almost emptied the resources of all realms!

"kill!"

Mingyue pointed her fingertips at the three-colored giant hand and the main force of the three-phase allied forces that kept pouring out behind it. The hundreds of millions of puppet soldiers roared silently, turning into a metal storm that destroyed everything, and crashed into it!
Leading the charge were those massive Xuanjin puppet ships, which made no attempt to evade or attack. Instead, they pushed their spirit-gathering cores to their limits, crashing straight into the densest area of ​​the enemy forces, like burning meteors, and into the three-colored giant hand!
"boom!!!……"

The incessant sound of primal collapse became the sole melody of this starry sky.

Each of the Xuanjin Puppet Ships was a moving volcano of spiritual energy; its core was detonated in an instant, releasing destructive energy powerful enough to tear stars apart. At this moment, thousands upon thousands of puppet ships self-destructed simultaneously—a scene reminiscent of the beginning of the universe, with billions of stars simultaneously reaching their end!
A blinding white light engulfed everything, and a terrifying energy shockwave spread out in a spherical shape, reducing all matter in its path to primordial chaos. The warships of the Tripartite Alliance, which had just rushed out of the passage, were instantly vaporized like snowflakes thrown into a furnace. The once mighty three-colored giant hand was also blasted into countless holes before this pure and ultimate destructive power, its light rapidly dimming before finally emitting a resentful hum.
