Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

Under the collision of their invisible auras, the void groaned under the unbearable pressure, cracking open with countless fine black marks.

"Fellow Daoist, your methods are far too cruel."

The will of the Supreme Flame God transformed into rolling heat waves, containing suppressed rage to the extreme. His radiant phantom of the sun rippled slightly, its scorching light attempting to smooth over the destructive marks left by the Chaos Axe, only to find those marks as if branded into the very essence of the void, indelible.

The will of the Ice Skeleton Ruler was chillingly cold, and the phantom of the eternally frozen ice plain spread out, protecting the remaining ice fleet below: "We are already aware of the cause and effect of this matter. If you withdraw from the Blood Realm, there is still room for negotiation. Otherwise, our three divine realms will fight you to the death."

"Withdraw? Do you think you can teach me how to do things?" Li Mu chuckled dismissively.

Emperor Wanlei's will was the most violent. The phantom of the Thunder God Palace roared, and thick purple-gold thunder dragons roamed between the palaces, locking onto the Chaos Giant Axe: "Arrogant! Today, I will let this emperor weigh your Chaos Dao to see just how much it's worth!"

The ruler of the Three Realms was forced to reveal himself!
Inside the Chaos Treasure Palace, Li Mu remained calm and composed, not retracting the Chaos Giant Axe. The illusory image of the giant axe, which traversed the starry river, still exuded a sense of returning to nothingness that made all living beings tremble.

"Those who cross the line will be executed."

"Now that you have shown yourselves, you shall all pay the price."

Before the words were finished, the chaotic giant axe hanging on the battlefield suddenly trembled. The gray aura on the axe body surged and flowed at an unprecedented speed. The line of "nothingness" at the axe blade suddenly expanded and transformed into a chaotic blade of light that cleaved across the starry river!

This strike was aimed directly at the three incarnations of the realm lords' wills!
Where the blade passed, the radiant sun phantom of the Flame God Supreme dimmed abruptly, as if its light and heat had been swallowed up by an invisible force; the eternal ice plain phantom of the Ice Skeleton Ruler trembled violently, and countless cracks appeared on its surface; the Thunder God Palace phantom of the Thunder Emperor was even more chaotic with lightning, and the palace shook, almost collapsing!

"Insanity!"

"presumptuous!"

"court death!"

Three angry shouts rang out simultaneously, shaking the heavens.

The illusory image of the Supreme Flame God suddenly contracted, transforming into a flame spear refined to its ultimate form. The tip of the spear was dark red, seemingly capable of piercing through all realms, and fiercely thrusting towards the chaotic blade!

The illusory image of the Ice Bone Dominator condensed into a clear blue ice crystal prism. The mirror light flowed and reflected the absolute chill that froze space and time, meeting the slash head-on!
The phantom of the Emperor of Ten Thousand Thunders' temple erupted with billions of thunderbolts, condensing into a thunder core containing the source of destruction, which crashed into the blade's edge like a meteor!

The furious strike from the Realm Lord-level being far surpassed the combined power of the three previous God Venerables. The entire Netherworld Blood Realm trembled violently at the edge of the collision of these four forces, and the boundary walls emitted a piercing cracking sound, as if they might completely collapse at any moment.

The chaotic blades clashed fiercely with the power of the three realm lords!
A deafening roar, reaching the very essence of the Great Dao, erupted!

At the center of the collision, an extreme darkness spread out, devouring light, devouring sound, devouring all laws and concepts. It was absolute nothingness, the end of all things, and the beginning of chaos.

The destructive ripples spread out in a spherical shape, and the remaining Tri-Phase Allied warships were like grains of sand swept up by a gale, instantly propelled billions of kilometers, with many disintegrating and collapsing directly in the aftershocks.

If it weren't for the illusory light of the Chaos Dao Tree protecting the Immortal Dynasty, the Netherworld City would probably have been reduced to dust by this impact.

This clash was devoid of dazzling lights and shadows, and explosive roars; it was merely a collision of the most fundamental laws.

After a moment, the extreme darkness slowly faded away.

In the void, the phantom of the Chaos Giant Axe still stood, but its light was slightly dim. The three avatars of the World Lords' wills opposite him were also much clearer, clearly having paid a considerable price.

A piece was chipped off the tip of the Flame God Supreme's Flame Spear, and the phantom of the great sun flickered uncertainly.

Several cracks appeared in the ice crystal prism dominated by the Ice Bone, causing cold air to leak out and freeze the void.

The core of Emperor Wanlei's lightning had shrunk by nearly half, and the lightning was chaotic, no longer as violent as before.

The auras of the three realm lords' wills had all weakened.

"You ants... how dare you harm my clone!"

The roar of the Supreme Flame God was like the simultaneous eruption of billions of volcanoes. The illusory image of the magnificent sun suddenly contracted and condensed, and endless divine flames poured in from the source of the infinitely distant Blazing Flame God Realm, crossing the void.

The blazing white light instantly overwhelmed the Milky Way, and a fiery giant tens of thousands of feet tall shattered the void and descended fiercely!

This giant was composed entirely of the purest divine flame principles, its body wreathed in dark red flames that could incinerate all things. Its eyes were like two boiling seas of lava, and it held tightly in its hand a "Spear of World Burning" condensed from the core of the primordial lava sea. Wherever the spear tip pointed, the void melted like wax, leaving behind burn marks that could not be healed for a long time.

Almost simultaneously, the Ice Skeleton Sovereign let out a piercing shriek that penetrated the soul. The phantom of the azure ice plain suddenly exploded, turning into countless crystalline ice shards. The Extreme Cold Dao was drawn from outside the Netherworld Blood Realm, freezing time and sealing all things. A Xuanbing Phoenix with wings that covered the sky and nine ferocious heads took shape!
The nine-headed ice phoenix, its icy blue color penetrating to the bone, looked down upon the mortal world. With a roar, it unleashed the "Mysterious Nether Breath," powerful enough to freeze even the souls of immortals forever. Wherever it passed, even the chaotic air currents froze into flakes of ice.

"In the name of thunder, judge this fiend!" The roar of the Thunder Emperor triggered the eternal thunder punishment. The illusory image of the Thunder God Temple suddenly disintegrated, transforming into billions of purple lightning snakes, which intertwined and coiled into a purple lightning Qilin Dharma image with its feet on thunderclouds and its head above the starry sky!

The Qilin's scales opened and closed, unleashing bursts of destructive lightning that could tear apart star fields. With each thud of its four hooves, rolling thunder transformed into a tangible torrent of sound waves, causing the laws of the heavens to wail incessantly.

The three realm lords spared no expense, forcibly projecting a portion of their true power here to condense these three Dharma bodies with world-destroying might! The combined pressure was like an ancient divine mountain crashing down.

The already dilapidated walls of the Netherworld Blood Realm emitted a piercing cracking sound, and countless broken stars floating on the outer perimeter exploded one after another under this terrifying pressure, turning into dust!
"So you're finally willing to invest?" Inside the Chaos Treasure Palace, Li Mu's eyes narrowed, and the chaotic energy in his eyes accelerated. The illusory image of the Chaos Dao Tree, which was originally bound to him by life and death, solidified completely behind him. Its roots frantically plunged into the Blood Realm Origin below, even connecting with the Golden Puppet, Emberfire, Time Ruins, and Illusionary Spirit Realms. The vast power of the realms surged into his body like a flood breaking through a dam, pouring into the Dao Tree behind him.

"Chaotic Dao Domain, open!" Li Mu shouted, and suddenly pushed his hands outward.

"Om-!"

An invisible and intangible domain, yet encompassing all things and evolving the heavens, expanded dramatically from his center! Within the domain, a hazy, chaotic current surged ceaselessly, with earth, water, fire, and wind revolving and dying within it. At times, the clear and turbid separated as if about to create the heavens, and at other times, all laws returned to nothingness and returned to chaos.

This domain withstood the terrifying pressure of the three Dharma Images combined, enveloping most of the Netherworld Blood Realm and protecting the Zhenyou Netherworld City and the remaining power of the Immortal Dynasty below.

The edge of the domain clashed violently with the power of the three Dharma forms, producing a muffled, thunderous roar. The chaotic energy flow eroded and annihilated each other with divine flames, mysterious ice, and purple lightning, creating chaos in the void for billions of miles.

"A desperate struggle!" The giant of flames roared, and the world-burning spear in its hand thrust out fiercely. A blazing white beam of light, condensed to the extreme, tore through the chaotic domain and went straight for Li Mu's body! Where the beam of light passed, the chaotic air currents were forcibly pushed aside and evaporated.

The nine heads of the Nine-Headed Ice Phoenix rose simultaneously, and its nine azure breaths merged into one, transforming into an eternally frozen torrent that followed closely behind the blazing white pillar of light. Wherever it passed, even the concept of "spacetime" evolved from the Chaos Dao Domain seemed to be frozen.

The Purple Lightning Qilin Dharma Form stomped its four hooves fiercely, and billions of lightning snakes burst forth from its single horn, converging into a purple-gold lightning spear that judges all living beings and adjudicates all things. With a speed that surpasses the detection of divine sense, it struck first and pierced straight at Li Mu's brow!

The combined attack of the three Dharma forms was far more powerful than the previous clash between the avatars of will, and it caused the very origin of the Great Dao to tremble.

Li Mu remained calm, his hands moving with lightning speed, forming hand seals.

"Chaos Banner, protect!"

An ancient banner unfurled from the void above his head, its surface fluttering wildly. Chaotic currents surged across it like dragons and snakes rising from the land, countless miniature worlds rising and falling within it. This was none other than the Chaotic Spirit Banner, a primordial spiritual artifact obtained from the depths of the Chaotic Treasure Palace!
As soon as the spirit banner appeared, it unleashed countless strands of chaotic energy, forming the most resilient barrier, layer upon layer, protecting Li Mu. The World-Burning Spear struck the barrier, exploding into a rain of blazing white light, yet it could not penetrate an inch; the Xuanming Breath swept over, causing a thick layer of ice to condense on the barrier's surface, but it continuously cracked and regenerated under the circulation of chaotic energy within; the Thunder Punishment Spear pierced through, exploding with countless bolts of lightning at the point where it met the barrier, causing the entire Chaotic Dao Domain to tremble violently, but ultimately it failed to penetrate.

"Chaos transforms into a dragon, vanquishing evil!"

Li Mu changed his hand seals again, and the Chaos Spirit Banner suddenly trembled violently. The surging chaotic energy on the banner surface suddenly broke away and condensed in the void to form a shape—nine chaotic dragons with scales and claws showing!

The dragon's body stretched for thousands of miles, its entire body composed of the most primordial chaotic energy. Its eyes were chaotic and indifferent, and it emitted a dragon roar that shook the galaxy. With its claws outstretched, it pounced on the three Dharma forms!
Three chaotic dragons coiled around the fire giant, their bodies strangling and their claws tearing at it, spewing gray dragon breath that continuously eroded its divine flame laws.

The three chaotic dragons then faced the nine-headed Xuanbing Phoenix. Their tails swept across, ice crystals flew everywhere, and their dragon breath and Xuanming breath clashed fiercely, blurring the boundary between ice and chaos.
The last three giant dragons roared and charged toward the Purple Lightning Qilin. Their dragon horns clashed fiercely with the Qilin's single horn, and their dragon claws clashed with the thunder hooves. Each clash unleashed terrifying energy capable of annihilating stars.

At the same time, the floating giant axe of chaos rose up once more!

Li Mu pointed his fingers like a sword at the three Dharma images, and the power of the Chaos Dao Domain surged wildly into the axe.

"cut!"

The giant axe swept across the sky, no longer a simple slash. The axe blade drew an extremely profound trajectory, as if it contained the true meaning of all "slashing" since the beginning of time. The gray axe light suddenly surged and split into three, slashing towards the core of the fire giant, the nine-headed ice phoenix, and the purple lightning qilin respectively!

This axe strike triggered the origin of the Chaos Dao Domain, gathered the power of the Nine Realms in a chain, and was an ultimate expression of Li Mu's own Chaos Dao!
"Roar!"

The fire giant roared in shock and rage, and the World-Burning Spear clashed violently with the axe light! The spear trembled violently, and the blazing white divine flames flickered like candles in the wind. On the giant's massive body, a huge axe wound almost severed its shoulder, and countless essences of divine flames frantically escaped from the wound.

The Nine-Headed Ice Phoenix let out a shrill cry. Two of its heads were instantly severed by the axe light, turning into countless ice crystals that shattered. The remaining seven heads also dimmed, their feathers withered, and the chilling aura around them diminished sharply.

The Purple Lightning Qilin Dharma Form was in the most sorry state. As the axe light swept past, its single horn, which attracted ten thousand thunderbolts, was severed at the root! The lightning dissipated, and the Qilin Dharma Form let out a painful wail. The purple lightning around its body became chaotic and its form became somewhat illusory.

The three Dharma Masters suffered severe damage at the same time!

The price paid by the Chaos Giant Axe was that the brilliance on its blade dimmed once more, and even a tiny crack appeared at its edge. Of the nine giant dragons summoned by the Chaos Spirit Banner, four were scattered in the previous battle, and the remaining five were also broken and their auras were much weaker than before.

"burst!"

Li Mu's eyes were cold and showed no pity. With a thought, the remaining five chaotic dragons pounced forward, their bodies expanding rapidly before exploding with a bang!
“Boom, boom, boom, boom—!”

Five orbs of chaotic light exploded around the three damaged Dharma forms, and destructive chaotic turbulence swept in all directions, completely engulfing the three Dharma forms that were already on the verge of collapse!
"Do not--!"

The three realm lords, Flame God, Ice Skeleton, and Thunder God, roared in fury and resentment across the endless void. The power they projected could no longer maintain its Dharma form under the blows of the Chaos Giant Axe and the self-destruction of the Chaos Dragon.

The giant of flames crumbled into a sky full of flowing fire, and the Spear of Burning the World wailed as it vanished into nothingness; the body of the Nine-Headed Ice Phoenix shattered, turning into countless icy blue light spots that dissipated; the Dharma Form of the Purple Lightning Qilin was annihilated by lightning, leaving only a thunderous explosion filled with resentment.

The three Dharma Avatars, which had been condensed at great cost, were forcibly destroyed by Li Mu in this battle using the Chaos Dao Domain, the Chaos Spirit Banner, and the Chaos Giant Axe!
The terrifying aftershocks of the battle spread wildly in all directions like a cataclysmic tide. On the outskirts of the Netherworld Blood Realm, the remaining stars, already weakened by the successive battles, exploded one after another under the impact of this force, like glass being struck by a giant hammer, turning into a dazzling yet deadly band of star fragments that illuminated this star field as if it were daytime.

The aftershocks impacted the Chaos Dao Domain, causing it to shake violently and the light barrier to flicker. The Zhenyou Netherworld City trembled violently, and its protective array emitted a piercing alarm. Mingyue, Xiao Jingtian, and the others worked tirelessly to maintain order and stabilize the situation.

Inside the Chaos Treasure Palace, Li Mu swayed slightly, his face paling almost imperceptibly, and the illusory image of the Chaos Dao Tree behind him dimmed slightly. Consecutive use of supreme divine abilities to directly confront three World Lord avatars had taken a tremendous toll on him.

Li Mu raised his eyes, his gaze seemingly piercing through the endless void, looking towards the three directions from which violent fluctuations were coming from due to the annihilation of power. His eyes remained calm, but the chill in his heart grew even more intense.

The entire Blood Realm temporarily returned to silence, with only the shattered fragments of stars floating silently, telling the story of the earth-shattering battle that had just taken place.

However, everyone understood that beneath this silence lay the raging fury of the three realm lords; the calamity of the Netherworld Blood Realm was far from over. (End of Chapter)
