Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The True Lord of Jade Palace Spirit Abyss said that the Seven Classics of Intercepting Heaven are explained in seven volumes.

It is said that: Heaven generates water, fire moves fire, wind moves with agility, thunder controls the force, breaks all laws, severs time, and cuts off cause and effect; these correspond to Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Purple Mansion, Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, and Void Refining, respectively.

The Book of Breaking All Laws represents the ultimate in the way of the sword, the sword that breaks all laws.

It is said that with a single sword strike, all magic is destroyed. No matter what kind of supernatural power or magic weapon, no matter what kind of magical treasure or divine weapon, it can be broken or cut down with a single sword strike.

Fang An looked at Zhang Ling with some surprise and doubt. He himself had received teachings from Tianzheng Daojun, the ancestor of the Burning God Realm and the supreme master of the Myriad Realms, who taught him the Pure Yang level of the Innate Five Hearts Technique. He was very clear about what it meant to break through all laws with a sword.

Such pinnacle of swordsmanship should not appear in the Southern Realm.

Let alone a small world like the Southern Illumination Realm, it's unlikely that even a middle world could produce a sword genius who could comprehend the sword's ability to break through all laws.

It's not that there aren't such sword-wielding geniuses, but rather that the world is too small, and the laws and principles of the Dao are insufficient for them to comprehend the sword's ability to break through all laws.

A swordsmanship genius that even the Middle Thousand Worlds couldn't produce had actually appeared in the Southern Illumination Realm, which made Fang An find it somewhat amusing: "Heh."

"Hehehehe."

Before the Great Wall of Swords, Fang An's deep laughter shook the heavens and earth, causing the space to crack. The Golden Core cultivators of the Heavenly Righteous Alliance trembled, knowing that their leader was enraged. Visible to the naked eye, sacred red and white dragons tore through the void and swirled around their leader.

Fang An stood on two dragons, with a majestic and awe-inspiring Dharma image three thousand feet long and a hundred arms behind him, intimidating all directions.

Zhang Ling frowned. Perhaps it was due to his previous experience at Yunxian Temple or his cultivation of the Seven Intercepting Heaven Scriptures True Explanation, but the world in Zhang Ling's eyes was completely different from the world in the eyes of the people of Tianzheng Alliance and even most people in this Nanzhao Realm.

Zhang Ling could see that as Fang An laughed, an invisible, boundless sea of ​​blood and a stench of wind swept in, transforming into a mountain of swords and blades piled up with white bones, and a rotting sea of ​​flesh and blood writhing. Within that mountain of bones and sea of ​​blood, ferocious bone dragons coiled around the bone mountain and roared, while rotten blood pythons churned and howled in the sea of ​​blood.

Fang An, the leader of the Tianzheng Alliance, had his flesh torn open, revealing one rotten and foul-smelling gash after another. Flesh tentacles twisted and writhed, and leeches and poisonous creatures constantly shed from his rotting flesh. Even the Dharma image behind Fang An was filled with a sense of corrosion and decay, and the undisguised malice of that Dharma image was constantly corrupting the Pure Spirit World.
This is an extraterrestrial demon!

"The sword shatters all laws. The sword shatters all laws."

Fang An muttered to himself, then suddenly his eyes turned bloodshot and stared intently at Zhang Ling like a vicious dragon: "You are just a wild man from the southern mountains, a mere disciple of a Taoist temple. Fifteen years ago, you were only at the first level of Qi Refining and didn't know the immensity of the world. But in just fifteen years, you have actually mastered the Sword Breaking Ten Thousand Laws!"

As he spoke, Fang An tilted his head and said, "In fact, his cultivation level has reached the Nascent Soul stage."

Nascent Soul Realm?!

Fang An did not suppress his voice, so both the people from the Tianzheng Alliance and the cultivators from the Yuchen Sect heard Fang An's words.

On the Great Wall of Swords, the sword cultivators of the Jade Emperor Sect looked at Zhang Ling with immense surprise: their sect leader was already a Nascent Soul cultivator?!
Zhang Ling's expression remained unchanged, and the magic sword in his hand naturally fell to the ground: "If I didn't have profound magical powers to protect me, how could I deal with a heretical demon like you?"

"You ask me how I attained the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm? I'm not afraid to tell you, it's all due to the innate talent of Heaven and Earth, it's the glorious Dao of Heaven!"

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning seemed to flash in Zhang Ling's eyes. Wind and thunder rose, water and fire moved, clear wind and red fire, thunder and mysterious water transformed into shimmering light of four colors: blue, purple, red and black, and finally merged into the mottled sword energy on the magic sword.

The sword energy was only three inches long, yet it possessed the power to split the earth and open the heavens, and to annihilate all laws.

"Evil, come and die!"

Zhang Ling's energy surged, and he reached the Nascent Soul realm in just three breaths. Behind Zhang Ling, a Taoist dharma image, a thousand feet tall, with wind and thunder wrapped around his arms and water and fire under his feet, also manifested.

The Dharma Image had vertical eyes on its forehead and held a Dharma sword. As Zhang Ling slashed out with his sword, the thousand-foot-tall Dharma Image was already slashed down.

In an instant, a dragon's roar seemed to resound, and the sword energy that could shatter all laws pierced through heaven and earth, tearing apart the blood energy in front of Fang An, and penetrating the mountain of bones and sea of ​​blood. Everyone on and off the Great Wall of Sword Dao saw that mottled sword light tearing through the sky for thousands of miles!
Nascent Soul cultivation!

A true Nascent Soul cultivator!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Fang An was caught off guard by Zhang Ling's sudden sword strike. Half of his body was cleaved in two by the sword, the sword energy raging and the sword intent lingering, giving Fang An no chance to heal.

Seeing Fang An severely injured by his sect leader's sword, the sword cultivators on the Sword Dao Great Wall cheered. However, the people from the Heavenly Righteous Alliance remained calm. They had witnessed Fang An's abilities firsthand, and such a trick could not harm a Nascent Soul cultivator.

As expected, even though half of his body was cut open, his internal organs were exposed and corroded by sword energy, Fang An looked at Zhang Ling as if nothing had happened. Blood and flesh sprouted from the wound on his body, and then countless blood and flesh meridians spread across the wound like a spider web. Countless blood and flesh tentacles could be seen wriggling and growing wildly. The half of his body was easily glued back on without leaving any trace of injury.

Fang An brushed off non-existent dust, looked at Zhang Ling with a calm expression, but his soul was communicating with Tianzheng Daojun: "Master, is this the work of those who attacked you back then?"

As someone who had seen the world by following Chunyang Daojun, Fang An knew very well that a small place like Nanzhao Realm could not breed many dragons, because the pond was too shallow, so shallow that it was difficult to breed even two dragons, let alone raise a real dragon.
Zhang Ling's sudden rise to power, his supernatural ability to break through all laws with his sword, and the establishment of the Jade Emperor Sect—all of these were aimed at him, or rather, at his master.

How could Fang An not think of those guys who had attacked and killed his master in the past?
All I wanted was for everyone to be like a dragon, for all beings in the Southern Realm to be equal and able to become immortals, and yet I've already attracted attacks from those guys!
This made Fang An wonder, just what kind of inferno and fiery world exists in all the heavens and myriad realms?!

The voice of Tianzheng Daojun drifted over, tinged with guilt and helplessness: "My disciple, I have implicated you. It seems that someone is after us."

Fang An calmly replied, "Master, those in the Upper Three Realms cannot enter the Southern Illumination Realm, is that right?"

Tianzheng Daojun said with absolute certainty, "Let alone the upper three realms, even the Nascent Soul stage cultivators can't enter the Southern Illumination Realm now. The fact that you two Nascent Soul cultivators have appeared is already the limit of the Southern Illumination Realm right now."

The limit of the Southern Illumination Realm means that he will not encounter any opponents.

With a firm resolve, Fang An suddenly laughed: "A puppet manipulated from beyond the heavens, a marionette of others, dares to call me a heretic and demon?"

"Then let me see if you can live up to your pride!"

With that, Fang An stepped back and stood on the shoulder of the Dharma Image. The three-thousand-foot-tall Dharma Image waved its hundred arms, causing a bloody wind to howl and blood thunder to strike the sky: "Come, prepare to die!"

Zhang Ling remained silent, but instead urged his Dharma form to move forward and unleash a sword aura capable of shattering all laws upon the recovered Fang An.

In an instant, two Nascent Soul cultivators, unseen for two thousand years in the Southern Realm, began to fight fiercely above the Sword Dao Great Wall. Blood thunder surged, sword light danced, a hundred arms cracked the void like pillars of heaven, and sword shadows tore through the sky like dragons. The methods of the two Nascent Soul cultivators filled everyone on and off the Sword Dao Great Wall with awe. The heavens and earth trembled, and all laws lost their color.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Kill!"

Immediately, the army of the Heavenly Righteous Alliance began its charge towards the Sword Dao Great Wall, while the sword cultivators of the Jade Emperor Sect also stepped forward. Various spells and supernatural abilities filled the air, and the sounds of battle echoed across the Sword Dao Great Wall. Compared to the duel between Fang An and Zhang Ling, the clash between the two armies was far more brutal. The Southern Illumination Realm was already shrouded in turmoil.

For over two thousand years, no cultivators at the Golden Core Realm or above have appeared. Now, two have suddenly emerged, one righteous and one evil. It is a consensus in the cultivation world that the great calamity of the Southern Illumination Realm has arrived.

The Tianzheng Alliance stirred up bloodshed in the Nanzhao Realm, and then the Yuchen Sect stepped forward to turn the tide. The confrontation between good and evil caused the Nanzhao Realm, which had been at peace for two thousand years, to be severely depleted once again. No one dared to say how long this calamity would last, and everyone was struggling desperately.

Whether they were allied with the Tianzheng Alliance or sword cultivators from the Yuchen Sect, they all fought around the Great Wall of Sword Dao with unwavering faith. They firmly believed that they were the true chosen ones, the ones who would turn the tide and lead the people of the Southern Zhao Realm out of calamity and towards glory.

However, although the Southern Realm is currently facing a calamity, if it weren't for the appearance of Fang An and Zhang Ling, the Southern Realm of cultivation would not have entered a period of rapid development after two thousand years of silence.

Various cultivation methods, supernatural powers and techniques, as well as knowledge related to talismans, elixirs, formations, and weapon crafting, spread widely, and new skills emerged one after another.

The great battle between good and evil has indeed promoted the development of the cultivation world. It can be said that the Nanzhao Realm has ushered in an era of great growth in cultivation. As long as the Nanzhao Realm can survive this great battle between good and evil, it will undoubtedly usher in a period of prosperity.

But can Nanzhaojie really survive?

To some extent, the rapid development and the current explosion of various arts in the Nanzhao cultivation world are more like a final burst of light on the verge of death, equivalent to the last stand of heaven and earth.

After all, even the dignified spirit of the Immortal Abode, Nanxianzi, unconditionally trusts Zhang Ling and even regards him as the master of the Immortal Abode. This is enough to show how desperate the world of Nanzhao Realm has become. The will of the world has begun to influence the living beings of Nanzhao Realm without any disguise through the laws of fate and karma. It is evident how dangerous the situation in Nanzhao Realm has become.

It can be said that if Zhang Ling had not appeared and the Jade Emperor Sect had not been established, the Southern Zhao Realm would have long since become a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, and the world would have been corrupted under the influence of Fang An and the Heavenly Righteous Alliance.

Zhang Ling, this chosen one, this Nascent Soul cultivator in his thirties, was not brought about by Jiang Sheng alone, but was deliberately promoted by the Southern Illumination Realm.

After all, with Fang An, this heretical demon who disregards heaven and earth, absorbs the flesh and blood of all living beings as nourishment and fuel for his own cultivation, and even leads a group of Golden Core cultivators from the Heavenly Righteous Alliance to wantonly slaughter all living beings and plunder their vital essence and flesh, the Southern Illumination Realm will naturally continue to strengthen the power of the Chosen One.

The fact that a Nascent Soul cultivator was created from scratch in fifteen years is not the upper limit of the Southern Illumination Realm, but rather the current limit that the Southern Illumination Realm can withstand.

"Go ahead and fight."

"Kill them, kill them."

"If you don't do this, how will you know the wonders of the profound methods? If you don't do this, how will you understand how difficult it is to ascend to immortality?"

The Heavenly Righteous Dao Lord, or rather, the Heavenly Evil Ancestor, was watching Zhang Ling and Fang An, who were fighting, with great satisfaction, as if he were looking at two well-cultivated Gu worms and a group of wildly growing nutrients.

The sword can break through all laws, and the Heavenly Evil Ancestor is not without means to deal with it, just as he could quickly enable Fang An to unify the cultivation world of Nanzhao.

However, the Heavenly Evil Ancestor would not give it to Fang An.

It is meaningless for Fang An to unify the cultivation world of Nanzhao. Only such a battle between good and evil can bring enough disaster, enough desires and emotions, and enough evil in people's hearts.

Under calamity, the true nature of all beings is revealed. When the facade of peace is torn away, all kinds of filthy desires and evil intentions will be exposed, and even heaven and earth will be tainted and defiled.

After all, that was the stagnant poison that was usually hidden in the Ruins of Return.

"Nanzhaojie, what a wonderful place."

The Heavenly Evil Ancestor murmured, showing unusual satisfaction with Zhang Ling and Fang An, even though Zhang Ling was promoted from the Southern Illumination Realm to deal with him, he didn't care.

It's just a chosen one created by a small world on the verge of death. Even the chosen ones of the great worlds can't resist the methods of the Pure Yang, so what use is the chosen one of a small world?

Even if Zhang Ling hadn't appeared, the Heavenly Evil Ancestor himself would have had to support a chosen one to challenge Fang An.

Bloodshed and carnage continued to spread around the Great Wall of Swords, and the corrupting influence of heaven and earth, desires and human hearts were constantly expanding, eroding the world of Nanzhao Realm from the inside out, and eroding the laws of Nanzhao Realm.

In the Southern Illumination Realm, a ferocious shadow that almost covered half of the realm had reached from the heavens to the abyss, and its majestic yet ferocious image was even projected onto the very membrane of the Southern Illumination Realm.

"In a few days, we'll take these two insects, along with all the nutrients, with us."

"The Southern Illumination Realm has been almost completely reaped."

The Heavenly Evil Ancestor looked lovingly at his precious furnace, sensing the filth of heaven and earth formed from the desires of all living beings within it. It was the decayed flesh and blood of heaven and earth, the corrupted laws of the world. Under the nurturing of these, the poison of the Great Dao was gradually refined.

Hundred Fruits Realm, Peony Realm, Eastern Flow Realm
The calamities of those worlds seemed to have subsided, but in reality, the Heavenly Evil Ancestor had already completed his harvest. He never intended to let these worlds become completely corrupt, nor did he intend to corrupt them all. His goal was to harvest the filth of heaven and earth and refine enough of the Great Dao's poison.

Therefore, although it appears that the True Lords of the Eastern Heaven led the army of the Heavenly Lord of Justice to eliminate the pollution of all realms, in reality, the core things had long been scraped away by the Heavenly Evil Ancestor. Otherwise, how could those behind-the-scenes masters who almost polluted a realm and overturned everything have empty heads?

Almost every one of those puppets was a chosen one deliberately created by the Heavenly Evil Ancestor, only their core had been corrupted by him. How could a world possibly resist the chosen one created by the world itself?

In the end, it was nothing more than a lose-lose situation, with the ancestor reaping all the benefits.

Moreover, polluting the laws and heavenly principles of a realm and harvesting its flesh and desires will leave this world in ruins, even if it doesn't fall into the depths of chaos, indirectly increasing the burden on the Heavenly Court and the True Firmament Dao Sect.

It was perfectly natural for the Heavenly Evil Ancestor to target the world to which Qiongyun Daojun belonged.

With satisfaction, the Heavenly Evil Ancestor looked at the Great Dao Poison accumulating in the precious furnace and muttered to himself, "Old man Qiongyun, first you allied with us, and then you betrayed us and sided with the Heavenly Court. You two-faced opportunist!"

"What you owe us, let alone a dozen or so Middle Thousand Worlds, isn't even enough, not even the True Sky Realm!"

"You didn't expect that, did you? Your world, and the billions of living beings under your command, have become nourishment for my precious furnace!"

"Once my precious furnace is restored, and once I have a greater amount of Great Dao Poison, I will go and corrupt your True Heaven Realm!" (End of Chapter)
