Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Azure and black intertwine, yin and yang cross, sword unfolds, lotus blossoms open, Tao transforms into truth.

The vast blue-green lotus sea, blooming like yin and yang, slowly spread across the sky. On the three-foot-six-and-a-half-inch Qingping sword in Jiang Sheng's hand, layers of sword light surged and shimmered with the Three Calamities Divine Power and the Four Symbols Dao Law, magnificently displaying the Dao of Calamity and engraving the power of the end times.

As the magnificent light shone brightly into the sky, Jiang Sheng's voice echoed like the rushing wind and thunder, and the surging water and fire reverberated between heaven and earth.

"I have cultivated the Dao for over 1,700 years. I established my Dao foundation in my youth, formed the Golden Elixir in my forties, and then studied all the myriad methods to open up my own path."

"The Sword that Cuts Through Heaven, to this day, I have mastered five techniques: Breaking All Laws, Severing Time, Cutting Cause and Effect, and Observing the Past."

"The sun transforms and creates!"

As soon as the words fell, heaven and earth turned into illusion, all things returned to chaos, the four symbols and five elements dispersed, and all the celestial stars fell.

All things and all things in this world returned to the primordial chaos, thus repeating the creation of the world.

At this moment, eighty million miles away, the Golden Turtle Demon Lord gazed at the soaring, magnificent sword intent and sensed the surging, destructive sword momentum. His expression remained calm and indifferent, revealing no joy or anger.

Meanwhile, the six great demons at the Integration Realm—Blood Jade Demon Lord, Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, Conch Shell Demon Lord, Enchanting Water Demon Lord, White Jade Demon Lord, and Nether Scale Demon Lord—were horrified, their faces showing not only astonishment but also fear: such majestic power and such fierce sword intent could be felt even from 80 million miles away, causing a stinging pain between their brows and a chill to permeate their bodies.

Is that Penglai Spirit Abyss truly something they can stop?!

All in all, the six of them combined couldn't even reach the level of a third tribulation cultivator!

"What, are you scared?"

The voice of the Golden Turtle Demon Lord rang in the ears of the Blood Jade Demon Lord and the Six Demons, immediately bringing these six great demons back to their senses.

The Golden Turtle Demon Lord, leaning on his dragon-headed cane, slowly pointed forward: "Don't worry, the swordsmanship of Penglai Lingyuan is profound, and his sword horn is no less than his."

"The outcome of their battle will be decided in a short time."

Hearing Jin'ao Demon Lord's words, Xueyu Demon Lord felt a bitter taste in his mouth: Jianjiao Demon Lord was a famous Four Tribulation Demon Lord of Bibo Pool, a born sword embryo. This Penglai Lingyuan, who had the cultivation of a Four Tribulation Demon Lord, could not suppress a One Tribulation Demon Lord. The outcome was already clear!
Unexpectedly, the Golden Turtle Demon Lord said, "You just go forward, and I will cover you. As long as you harass from the outside, Sword Horn can suppress Lingyuan and gain the opportunity to win."

"Go."

Upon hearing this, the six demons, including Blood Jade Demon Lord and Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush forward. With their current level of cultivation, if they didn't rush forward to help Sword Horn Demon Lord out of trouble, Golden Turtle Demon Lord would probably have to clean house for Bibo Pool.

Compared to Penglai Lingyuan, whose swordsmanship seems profound but who is actually only at the first level of cultivation, the Golden Turtle Demon Lord, who has lived for over ten thousand years and is at the fifth level of cultivation, is far more terrifying.

After traversing thirty million miles, the magnificent power of Jiang Sheng's battle with the Sword Horned Demon Lord had materialized into a tangible gale of wind, thunder, and fire, howling towards them. Sensing the oncoming raging wind and thunder, and the arrogant, sharp sword energy and chilling calamity sword intent, the six demons couldn't help but hesitate: the battle between Penglai Lingyuan and the Sword Horned Demon Lord was a battle of unrestrained sword energy; a mere graze would mean death, and a direct hit would mean injury.

While hesitating, the Snail Demon Lord spoke first: "In the end, Penglai Lingyuan is nothing more than a head and two hands, and only has one tribulation of cultivation; even if the six of us demons attack from the outside, it is not certain that he can kill us under the suppression of the Sword Horn Demon Lord."

"We've gotten involved in this calamity, do you really think we can just walk away unscathed?"

Upon hearing this, Seven Rainbow Demon Lord also became ruthless: "Luotuo Demon Lord is right. We are from outside after all. If we want to gain a foothold in Bibo Pool, we must earn some merit. Today, we will make a contribution by taking that Penglai Spirit Abyss."

"If we win, we'll be famous throughout the world!"

The remaining four demon lords nodded in agreement, each taking out their own natal magic treasures and unleashing various supernatural powers to rush straight to the center of the battle between Jiang Sheng and the Sword Horn Demon Lord.

At this moment, in the very center of this sword clash that covered the heavens and earth and swept across billions of miles, Jiang Sheng's Qingping Sword had already struck down. The sword light that created creation transformed into the Primordial Sword, pressing down in all directions, using calamity and destruction to reenact creation and reopen the world.

The sword of creation fell down, and the world was shattered and reenacted.

Sensing the unparalleled sharpness and fierce intent of the Primordial Sword Qi, the Sword Horn Demon Lord finally gathered eight Dividing Light Sword Pills in front of him. For a moment, the eight sword pills swirled endlessly in front of the Sword Horn Demon Lord, as if they were depicting celestial stars or arrayed like the Big Dipper.

In an instant, a demonic star appeared above the Sword Horned Demon Lord's head. Under the starlight, the Sword Horned Demon Lord's aura rose steadily. At the same time, his essence, energy, and spirit gathered at the top of his head and transformed into a three-colored lotus platform to stabilize his own fortune canopy. The four elements of wood, fire, earth, and metal within his body circulated in a cycle.

Although it has not yet achieved the convergence of water and qi, and is missing one of the five elements, the power of the convergence of the four elements is already enough to overwhelm all existences below the fourth tribulation.

The elements of wood, fire, earth, and metal swirled around the Sword-Horned Demon Lord's chest, then seeped into his internal organs, transforming into a four-colored Dao wheel that circled behind his head. The Sword-Horned Demon Lord extended his eight hands, each holding a Dividing Light Sword Pellet.
The eight golden essence eight-star light-dividing sword pellets were scattered around the Sword Horn Demon Lord like a peacock spreading out, each displaying its brilliant light.

"Golden essence pervades the constellations, and the stars themselves radiate light."

"The eight auspicious stars form the Big Dipper, reflecting the brilliance of life."

"True Lord Lingyuan, this move of mine is called the Eight Views Mirroring Light-Splitting Sword Formation!"

As the Sword Horn Demon Lord finished speaking, eight hands controlled eight split-light sword pellets that soared into the sky, instantly stabilizing the surrounding qi and evolving eight stars in the vast chaos, thus restricting Jiang Sheng's supreme sword momentum, which intended to destroy the world with calamity and create the heavens, within the eighty thousand miles of heaven and earth.

Supernatural powers and spells, of course, demonstrate their power by destroying the heavens and the earth, often annihilating millions of miles and suppressing tens of millions of miles.

Upon reaching the Mahayana realm, one can suppress the Middle Thousand Worlds, and a Pure Yang Great Power can even destroy the Great Thousand Worlds.

However, among all living beings in the myriad realms, the higher their realm and the deeper their cultivation, the less their supernatural powers and spells manifest their destructive power.

With the demonic power and cultivation of the Sword Horned Demon Lord, this sword formation could cover 30 million miles of heaven and earth, and could annihilate everything within it, even space and time.

At this moment, the Sword Horn Demon Lord condensed the sword formation that was enough to cover 30 million miles of heaven and earth into an area of ​​80,000 miles. This was not only to compress and condense the power of the sword formation, but also to resolve the crisis with the least amount of demonic power and mental energy consumption.

The so-called supernatural powers and techniques do not lie in their grandeur, but in their effectiveness.

To cope with various means by expending minimal mental and physical energy, one must maintain one's mental and physical strength to withstand the attrition of opponents of the same realm. After all, for immortals, gods, demons, and Buddhas of the three upper realms of Refining Emptiness, Integration, and Mahayana, every battle between those of the same realm and cultivation level cannot be decided in just a few moments. It often involves comparing the depth of each other's magical power and the resilience of their mental state, constantly wearing down the opponent's magical power and destroying their soul, waiting for the opponent to reveal a weakness so as to unleash a fatal blow to defeat them.

However, Jiang Sheng's magical duels rarely lasted for several days and nights, let alone for decades or even centuries.

The longest battle Jiang Sheng had fought in recent years was when he encountered the Black Lotus Daoist in the Mountain and River Realm. At that time, Jiang Sheng, whose cultivation level was inferior to the Black Lotus Daoist, had to fight him for three years before finally defeating him. It was in that battle that Jiang Sheng was able to refine the Four Swords of Slaughter and Annihilation using water and fire. In battles after that, even when fighting opponents of higher levels, Jiang Sheng, with the support of the Four Swords, never lasted more than a day, and the outcome was usually decided within a quarter of an hour.

The Sword Horned Demon Lord's plan to use his precise control over demonic power and mind, which he possessed during battles of equal strength, to wear Jiang Sheng down was a miscalculation.

"What exquisite manipulation of demonic power."

"Demon Lord, your control over demonic power and magical artifacts is incredibly meticulous. Even a fifth-level cultivator's divine sense is no more than this."

"But Demon Lord, I learned this technique of controlling demonic power and magical artifacts when I was in the Void Refinement stage!"

Jiang Sheng's voice came from eight million miles away. Under the slightly astonished gaze of the Sword Horn Demon Lord, the once towering Azure Lotus Sea vanished without a trace, and the dazzling sword light covering the universe disappeared. Only the Qingping Sword had three feet of misty sword light.

It was hard to imagine that the towering sword light, which was enough to create the world, had actually transformed into a three-foot-long mottled sword light. However, the sharpness of destroying the world and the edge of shattering the void contained in the Qingping Sword made the Sword Horn Demon Lord's eyelids twitch and a sense of alarm arose in his heart.

At this moment, the six demons, including Blood Jade Demon Lord and Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, saw the vast Azure Lotus Sea in the world dissipate and the sword light that blotted out the sun disappear without a trace, leaving only a bright sky and the Sword Horn Demon Lord standing between heaven and earth, with his destiny star shining brightly and his three flowers gathered at the top. This made the six demons happy: Could it be that the Sword Horn Demon Lord has suppressed the Penglai Spirit Abyss?
Although it is unknown what happened, the current situation is clear: the Sword Horn Demon Lord's destiny star is in the sky, three flowers are gathered above his head, four qi are rotating behind his head, and the light sword pellet shines brightly, reflecting the eight-star sword formation.

Seeing the trend of the situation, and with the Sword Horned Demon Lord currently in the lead, when is a better time to act?

Upon realizing this, the Seven Rainbow Demon Lord immediately accelerated forward, and at the same time loudly proclaimed, "Sword Horn Demon Lord, we have come on the orders of the Golden Turtle Demon Lord to help you suppress the Spirit Abyss!"

As the Seven Rainbow Demon Lord unleashed his demonic power at the first tribulation realm, a phantom image of a demonic snake, ten thousand miles long, appeared in the vast天地 (heaven and earth).

This demonic serpent is wrapped in a seven-colored ring, and has bone horns on its head that it uses to move with mysterious water. As the demonic serpent roams the world, the vast mysterious water also surges along with it.

A powerful demon at the first tribulation of the Integration Realm, the Mysterious Water Seven-Rainbow Serpent!
Following the Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, the Blood Jade Demon Lord, the Snail Tuo Demon Lord, and the Nether Scale Demon Lord also followed closely behind, releasing their own demonic aura and power. Streams of demonic energy soared into the sky, evolving into ferocious phantom images of great demons.

There was a toad whose body was as white as jade and as bright as blood. Its seat was as large as a mountain range and as big as a star. Its eyes were like green jade and its body was covered with poisonous mist. As this demonic toad leaped, the surrounding world was also covered by poisonous mist.

A powerful demon at the first tribulation of the Integration Realm, the Heavenly Poison Blood Jade Toad!

Following the Mysterious Water Seven Rainbow Serpent and the Heavenly Poisonous Blood Jade Toad, there is a vast and boundless sea of ​​dark water flowing between heaven and earth. In the deep dark sea, there is a white, crystalline conch shell with thousands of bone claws clinging to it, which is translucent and swims in the waves. And behind the dark water conch shell, there is a mermaid with a human body and a snake tail, whose body is covered with black scales and has fish fins on its back, appearing and disappearing.

A Great Demon of the Second Tribulation of the Integration Realm, the Netherwater Bone Snail!

A powerful demon at the Fusion Realm, the Netherscale Mermaid!

Following these four Nascent Soul Realm demons, the ethereal Azure Lotus Shadow and the Moonlit White Carp also appeared, but the latter were clearly not as fast as the four demons in front of them, obviously not expecting this scene.

This infuriated the Water Demon Lord and the Jade Demon Lord: they had agreed to attack together, but the other two rushed ahead so fast that they were left behind. Didn't this make them seem like they weren't doing their best?

However, just as the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord were about to speed up their pursuit, they heard the faint voice coming from the Sword Horn Demon Lord.

For a moment, both the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord were stunned.

At that moment, the Sword-Horned Demon Lord's voice finally reached the two demons' ears with perfect clarity: "Run!"

run?!

The Demon Lord of Enchanting Water and the Demon Lord of White Jade seemed to realize something. The two demons stared intently and saw that in the hand of Jiang Sheng, whose figure was inconspicuous, the magic sword, which was only three feet six and a half inches long and looked extremely small, was flashing with a dazzling sword light that could illuminate the universe.

In an instant, the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord felt a chill run through their bodies. Even though they were still more than 20 million miles away from the battlefield of Jiang Sheng and the Sword Horn Demon Lord, the two demons still sensed the threat of death, which made them turn around and run away in a hurry.

Meanwhile, the Blood Jade Demon Lord, the Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, the Conch Shell Demon Lord, and the Nether Scale Demon Lord were already too late.

They rushed too fast and too fiercely, and were only 16 million miles away from Jiang Sheng and the Sword Horn Demon Lord. When they saw the Qingping Sword in Jiang Sheng's hand and sensed its terrifying power, which seemed to condense a great sun into a three-foot circle, the four demons found it difficult to turn around.

Between heaven and earth, there was no lotus sea of ​​intertwined blue and black, no wind, thunder, water, or fire that blotted out the sky, nor any vast aura of calamity; only the pure and mysterious aura and Jiang Sheng's seven-foot figure.

The four demons stared wide-eyed at the tiny figure, no more than seven feet tall.

Jiang Sheng sped across the heavens and earth, instantly traversing eight million miles of sky to leap in front of the Sword Horn Demon Lord: "With a single thought, sword techniques can reach the profound; with a single sword strike, the earth can split the heavens."

"This sword strike unfolds the creation of heaven and earth across thirty million miles; it is called the Creation of Heaven and Earth."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Qingping Sword gently slashed down. The three-foot-long mottled sword light that lingered on the blade struck down, and a crisp cracking sound rang out instantly, as if time stood still, as if space and time shattered, as if heaven and earth disappeared without a trace, as if chaos was annihilated.

With that soft shattering sound, the Blood Jade Demon Lord, the Seven Rainbow Demon Lord, the Conch Shell Demon Lord, and the Nether Scale Demon Lord all widened their eyes. In that instant, it seemed as if an immeasurable calamity was about to destroy the heavens and earth, and the 80,000-mile-long Dividing Light Sword Formation immediately collapsed.

In an instant, the four great demons' figures, which blotted out the sky, vanished into thin air along with the shattered spacetime. If anyone were to look at this place now, they would find that as Jiang Sheng's seemingly insignificant three-foot sword light fell, thirty million miles of heaven and earth were destroyed in an instant!
Time and space, the chaos of heaven and earth cracked and collapsed, and the thirty million miles of heaven and earth turned into nothingness under the light of the Primordial Sword and in the midst of glorious destruction.

The Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord stared in horror at the vanished thirty million miles of heaven and earth. Time and space vanished, and the chaotic void collapsed into dust. The Blood Jade Demon Lord and the others did not even last half a breath before their souls were scattered and their physical bodies turned to ashes.

Gazing at the vast emptiness stretching for thirty million miles before them, the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord trembled uncontrollably. Only now, amidst this great catastrophe, did they understand what a prodigy was, and what an unparalleled genius was.

Penglai Lingyuan cultivates the path of the Three Calamities and Tribulations, and performs the methods of the final calamity and destiny. He is the leader of the Xuanmen sect in this world and the number one person in all the heavens and myriad realms.

This statement is absolutely true!
This sword strike was deeply imprinted in the minds of the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord, and in their very bones. In the future, when the two of them encounter Jiang Sheng again, even if they are separated by 30 million miles, they will still be trembling with fear, so much so that they cannot unleash even 30% of their cultivation.

The Sword of Heaven-Slaying has never been merely a sword of the Dao, but also a sword of law and divinity, of will and power.

Defeated by Jiang Sheng's Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique, he lived a life of fear and dread.

Just as the Enchanting Water Demon Lord and the White Jade Demon Lord were trembling with fear, eighty million miles away, the Golden Turtle Demon Lord, who had originally intended to make a move, coldly stared at the Taoist blocking his way:
"True Lord Yuanyi, why are you here?" (End of Chapter)
