Destiny is ashes

Chapter 993 Kunpeng Spreads Its Wings (23)

In an instant, hundreds of thousands of people died, but the Azure Jade Sect also used its hidden strength—as the peak in the center of Azure Jade Immortal Island suddenly lit up with a bright blue light, a 'Sea-Containing Pearl' that seemed to contain a vast ocean slowly rose up.

As soon as it appeared, the dark clouds dissipated and the thunder ceased. With a slight movement, it created a torrent that easily pierced the head of the giant vortex octopus, causing the beast to scream and fall into the sea. Meanwhile, the warriors of the Azure Jade Sect also sprang into action. They moved with lightning speed, wielding exquisite magical artifacts, including sect elders who possessed divine weapons. In an instant, they killed more than a dozen sea centipedes and brought the situation on the main island under control.

"Quickly! Go and support the surrounding twenty-eight islands!"

With another sword strike, the centipede dragon was cleaved in two, splitting into two pieces the size of chopsticks.

Amidst the rain of blood, the elder, a True Immortal of the Divine Realm, roared, "The Upper Profound Sect has sent a message: reinforcements will arrive in just half an hour!"

"Elder Li, what on earth has happened?!"

A dark blue-green warrior, who had probably been in seclusion, arrived in his pajamas wielding a weapon and asked loudly. He was a core member of the sect. Elder Li patiently replied, "The Blood Sea Demonic Sect used the power of the Heavenly Venerable to catalyze all the hidden forces buried for tens of thousands of years... We don't know the specifics, but in short, we must defend the sect first!"

"The sect leader is controlling the Sea-Gathering Pearl. As long as it's not a demon god at the Pure Yang realm who attacks, then..."

His words suddenly stopped, and Elder Li's eyes widened in horror as he looked into the depths of the ocean.

Not only him, but all the martial artists and mortals on Azure Jade Island, even the sect leader who was manipulating the Pure Yang essence, all turned their gazes toward the depths of the ocean.

The ocean is boiling.

The seawater is receding.

The seawater in all the sea areas under the jurisdiction of the entire Ganbi Sect retreated in a way that defied common sense, as if it were being torn apart and dragged backward.

Along the island's coast, the tide receded rapidly, revealing the dark seabed and the seabed itself. Countless stranded monsters roared amidst the dense carcasses on the seabed. The giant vortex octopus that had fallen back into the sea and the many centipede dragons that had not yet been killed also turned their heads in terror, looking into the distance.

And in the far-off center of the sea tens of thousands of miles away, a huge whirlpool appeared. It was like a void, or some kind of huge abyss and mouth, swallowing up countless billions of seawater and drinking up the surrounding seawater.

Then, close it.

Like taking a deep breath, two points of scarlet light shone in the abyss of darkness.

Followed by.

It took off.

At the horizon where the sea meets the sky, an indescribable shadow is rising and distorting; it is so vast that even the heavens seem small before it.

"Ling..."

Watching this scene, Sect Master Ganbi's voice trembled: "It's Ling Xiao! Ha, ha ha ha ha! It's Ling Xiao!"

He suddenly grinned, then bent over laughing so hard that tears streamed down his face.

"The Soaring Giant Demon, the True Spirit Great Sage!"

Ignoring all the desperate cries and mad laughter of the world, the Kunpeng spread its wings, carrying the water vapor of the nine heavens, and soared into the sky, blasting a dark hole in the firmament and shattering billions of miles of flowing clouds. Its mere flight caused a cataclysmic change in the world; the seas it had stirred and drained were surged and collided with by the endless waters of the surrounding celestial seas, transforming into a colossal wave that blotted out the sun.

A white line stretched across the sky and earth, pressing down on this crumbling city of a thousand islands with unstoppable force.

There were no screams, no resistance. In the face of absolute power, everything lost its meaning.

The Ganbi Sect was destroyed.

Blood is flowing and converging.

—A sea of ​​blood surged—

Based on my observations, the Blood Sea Celestial Venerable who previously attacked the Zhaolin Realm was merely a decoy; the true mastermind is the current leader of the Blood Sea Demonic Sect, the God One.

This woman possesses unparalleled talent and extraordinary abilities. Unbeknownst to anyone, she independently established herself as the 'Soaring Heavenly Venerable', standing apart from the Blood Sea Heavenly Venerable!

[Right now, she is in the deepest part of the boundless Heavenly Sea, using this great calamity to refine her Dao through the Nine Heavens, intending to ascend to the pinnacle of the Heavenly Realm!]

Haotianjing's voice rang out, calm as if discussing a trivial matter: "[It's strange, but it's true. We speculate that this might be related to the recent fall of the Celestial Venerable of the Refining Truth Path. It wasn't just the work of the Upper Profound Sect; it was likely a joint experiment by the Refining Truth Path and the Blood Sea Demon Sect to verify some forbidden secret.]"

"An experiment? Why would they do this?" Ming and Guang couldn't comprehend this madness. They were still reeling from the shock of witnessing the Kunpeng soaring into the sky. "And that was a Celestial Venerable... Where does this power come from?!"

[Silly child] Haotian Mirror sighed deeply, [What else could it be for?]

[Naturally, it's all for... to prove 'Above the Heavens'!]

As for power... the Blood Sea spawns in various places are spreading wildly. They are not concerned with demonization at all, so they can devour the spiritual veins of the earth and the sea without any restrictions. Based on this, they can temporarily give birth to one terrifying existence after another with at least the combat power of a True Monarch.

This is true.

In the countless reflections of the Haotian Mirror, all sorts of terrifying scenes were displayed: a Zhu Yan as large as a mountain galloped and trampled across the vast wilderness, smashing one mountain after another; a ghost chariot blotted out the sky and dripped endless blood rain; a majestic city suddenly tilted and collapsed, while an unimaginably huge Bashe rose from the abyss of the sea, opened its huge mouth, and swallowed all the people and beasts in the city.

These colossal beasts, whose primal bloodlines were catalyzed by the Blood Sea Demonic Sect and reverted to ancient ferocious demons, stirred up monstrous demonic energy with their movements. Human martial artists could only use the spiritual energy purified by their destiny, but these colossal beasts unabashedly inhaled and exhaled the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, becoming stronger and stronger under the stimulation and catalysis of the demonic energy.

The fluctuations in the Zhaolin Realm before were a signal, activating the ancient bloodline of the entire Huaixu Demon Spirit... A grand undertaking, but in my opinion, this is just the beginning.

At this point, Haotian Mirror's voice became extremely heavy: "If the 'Ancestral Dragon Scale' of the Zhaolin Realm were to fall into the hands of that Divine One Sect Master, which contains the very origins of all living beings in the Huaixu Realm, that would be a truly catastrophic disaster!"

"Heavenly Venerable, how could it be 'refreshed' like this?"

Even after taking a sip of wine and feeling somewhat drunk, Akira and Hikaru still couldn't comprehend such a crazy thing.

In his understanding, every Celestial Venerable is unique, an existence that has been achieved through countless tribulations.

If the Celestial Venerable can be conceived so easily, then what is the purpose of the battle between the Mingjing Sect and the Taiming Sect?
