Grandpa, times have changed.

The second Taixuan Realm.

The void was filled with celestial debris and fragments of the central continent.

The entire Tai Xuan Realm was almost destroyed, with only a few remnants remaining in some extremely remote corners.

At the very center of this shattered world, a seven-colored crystal, seemingly both infinitely vast and infinitely small, composed of countless facets and edges, and bearing the wisdom of the past and present, appears to be on the verge of collapse.

hum~
After a slight tremor, it suddenly shattered, transforming into wisps of divine radiance that manifested countless shadows of the past and present.

"Kill him again..."

Meizu slowly lowered her hand, looking at the dissipating divine light, but her expression showed no sign of relaxation.

At first, when faced with these ancient Daoist soldiers, they were indeed helpless against them.

No matter what methods He uses, He can reappear as the 'Shadow of Today' and then retaliate.

In particular, the Sword Sovereign's shadow, which reappeared as a Dao soldier, was so fierce and unparalleled that his swordplay was extremely violent, and the other True Immortals dared not confront it head-on.

But Dao soldiers are ultimately just weapons without 'self', only able to respond to the methods used by true immortals according to the rules.

So it wasn't long before, through Kui's fearless probing, they discovered a flaw in the Daoist soldiers' defenses—

With the image of a true immortal already reproduced, the Dao soldier's state will be in a very brief 'solidified' state.

Moreover, it will always recreate the image of a true immortal as soon as it is attacked!
Moreover, the Dao soldiers in the 'solidified' state will no longer be able to reproduce other True Immortal shadows, and even their nature will become similar to the previous True Immortal shadow.

Although it was just a fleeting, elusive moment!
But it is more than enough for a true immortal.

By seizing that brief moment when it becomes 'solidified' and its nature no longer changes, and by applying targeted measures, it is enough to defeat it.

but……

Then, the divine radiance drifting in the void began to gradually converge, combine, and assemble...

In less than a quarter of an hour, it returned to its original seven-colored crystal state!
"That's fucking disgusting!"

Upon seeing this, the Overlord roared in anger, his blood and qi surging!

This is the seventeenth time!
Splash!
A vast river of qi and blood flowed through Tai Xuan, and the extremely powerful fist imprint seemed to pierce through reality and illusion, ignoring everything!
It crashed down on the Dao Soldier who had been restored, even though it was hundreds of millions of miles away!
"The world is but a fleeting dream, a reflection in the water."

The same cold, indifferent voice still echoed.

Amidst the flickering light and shadow, a figure with white beard and hair, dressed in a blue robe, stepped out.

Slowly raise your right hand.

A tiny, seemingly divinely created blue flame appeared, spinning and expanding until it transformed into a radiant blue fire lotus!

With a gentle toss, the azure fire lotus streaked across the dark, deep sky, leaving a bright trail.

It seems to contain a world of immense creation!

Yet, amidst the flickering flames, it once again vanished into nothingness.

boom!
The vast river of blood and qi that runs through the Tai Xuan realm was ignited, illuminating the entire Second Tai Xuan Realm with a vibrant blue glow!
Almost instantly upon contact, the extremely powerful fist imprint shattered.

Yes!

The Overlord only used one-tenth of his strength in that punch!

Seeing the azure fire lotus approaching, he did not retreat at all. Instead, he stepped forward, raised his right hand, and grabbed the scorching fire lotus that resembled the stars and moon!

As if ants had lifted up the stars, the scorching heat emanating from the azure fire lotus distorted the void.

The fragments of the continent were swept up by that fiery energy and directly melted into the purest 'nothingness'.

However, the Overlord didn't care at all and just squeezed hard!
boom!
The violent blue flames dissipated and surged in all directions!
"Let's do it!"

The remaining twelve True Immortals suddenly attacked!
Take advantage of the extremely brief moment when the nature of the Dao soldier is completely 'solidified' and can no longer reproduce the shadow of another True Immortal!
It seemed to exist between reality and illusion, as if there were countless giant hands entwining it, true flames scorching all things, the sound of a zither strummed with the principles of the Dao, and sword energy that could annihilate spirits and destroy gods...

One after another, endlessly!
This scene seems familiar!
Before it could change its properties and react, the seven-colored crystal only trembled slightly after being struck by the combined attack of the twelve True Immortals.

Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal, and the light and shadow flowing inside began to flicker irregularly.

Soon, the seven-colored crystal shattered again, just like before!
Once again...

Seeing that the scattered light and shadows were about to regroup, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Even if it were a true Daoist, being completely annihilated so many times would weaken it, but this Daoist soldier was not.

Clearly, this was the work of Xuan Omnipotent.

“Is what we’re doing now really meaningful?” Min sighed.

Because of the checks and balances between Daoist Brother and Xuan, they were unable to intervene in other aspects and could only deal with this Daoist soldier.

No matter how many times, as long as Xuan is still there, this weapon will never weaken or perish.

If that's the case, what's the point of what they're doing now?

"some."

Meizu looked at the Dao soldier that had gathered and was about to condense into a seven-colored crystal again.

"More than fifty years ago, my fellow Daoist and I deduced the 'Method of Severing the Self and Transcending,' which is an extreme method of achieving the Dao source by severing the self."

“Now, every time Xuan uses his omnipotent ability, it further accelerates the demise of his ‘self’.”

"And to revive this soldier and keep it from weakening, the omnipotent property is required."

To reiterate, the 'self' of an individual being is utterly insignificant compared to omniscience and omnipotence.

Especially Meizu.

As a True Immortal who wields the Dao of 'True Self', she had a clearer understanding of this than anyone else when Xu Xing and Xuan achieved the Dao Source.

But Xuan's 'self' is insignificant compared to omniscience and omnipotence, then...

What about Xu Xing, who also achieved the 'Source of the Dao'?
Meizu pursed her lips and continued:

"In short, what we are doing now is definitely not a waste of time!"

After saying that, she took the initiative and pressed her palm down on the Dao soldier that had reformed.

……

……

The first Taixuan Realm.

The red and purple colors that once filled the world have disappeared.

Looking out, all that could be seen was a vast, empty void...

No! It's the concept of 'nothingness' that seems so vague!

Two figures faced each other from a distance.

A man dressed in black with black hair held a long sword that was entirely crimson and shimmered with divine light.

A man in purple robes with white hair, possessing an otherworldly and ethereal beauty that transcends the limits of mortal language, had his emotions waning in his pale purple eyes.

"Your 'self' is disappearing faster than I expected," Xu Xing said, looking at Xuan. "What did you do?"

His 'self' perished too quickly; merely maintaining the ancient Way of the Army and its soldiers was not enough to bring it to the present state.

"I just helped you out, letting bygones be bygones."

Xuan's expression was indifferent, and his tone was completely flat.

Cherish the present moment, when there is still the 'unknown,' and everything that follows will be within your expectations.

He is the 'Source of the Way' that cuts off my transcendence and achievement. The price of using omniscience and omnipotence is great, and His 'self' can no longer be maintained for much longer.

What is the point of doing this for you?

"I told you."

A smile appeared on Xuan's lips.

"It doesn't mean anything, but I'm happy to do it."

Ah, the past...

Although His birth was never pure, and His life was spent in deception and lies.

But the period when He traveled the Central Continent as the Ancestor of the Azure Sky and the Ancestor of the Extraordinary was the most beautiful and carefree time of His life.

Even if it's all fake.

Those Cang tribe sons who follow Him, their longing for Him, their expectations of Him, and their faith in Him!
These……

It's all true!

The destruction of the Cang Clan is irreversible.

He was powerless.

In the last moment before his 'self' still existed, he only wanted to let everything from the past return to the past as the Ancestor of the Azure.

As for the future...

He didn't care where the future of the Cang Clan would lead.

Let Xu Xing choose what the future holds.

"My demise will cause all the chaotic heavens to become extinct, and the worlds to enter their final days!"

Xuan slowly raised his hand and clenched his five fingers together.

"A thousand years from now, extraordinary beings will reappear, and all living beings will no longer need to respect my order."

Its sound was magnificent, resounding throughout the heavens and the universe, and across all the chaotic worlds!

Its sound is faint and ethereal, lingering in all things, phenomena, spirits, and scenes, penetrating to the smallest detail.

The Dharma-ending Age!

The extraordinary beings of all realms have vanished, and spiritual energy has dissipated.

This will continue for a thousand years until the existing extraordinary order completely disappears, and all living beings in the world will no longer need to follow the rules.

Whether it's the Cang Clan's embryonic breathing, condensation of oneness, forging of the spirit, nourishment of self, or derivation of emptiness...

Or perhaps it's the human race's Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, and Return to Emptiness stages...

Even the extraordinary ritual system created by the Holy One...

As long as Xu Xing doesn't interfere in the future, there will be no more so-called 'transcendental order' in the myriad worlds of the Chaos Sea.

All living beings, whether they rely on external things or seek within themselves, can, once they reach a certain level, use their own methods to come into contact with that power that deviates from the world, transcend the limits of individual beings, and achieve 'transcendence'!
This can be considered as the last gift He, as the extraordinary progenitor and the profound ancestor of all realms, gave to the countless beings of all heavens and myriad worlds.

Of course, it could also be a disaster...

immediately!

"Take this punch!"

The Xuan Tian Fist slammed down on Xu Xing.

A punch without any fancy moves, yet it evoked the primordial chaos, the creation of all worlds, and the fleeting, mysterious light of heaven and earth.

Xu Xing didn't say a word, but raised his sword to meet the attack.

……

……

The boundless chaotic sea.

The Holy Venerable was hidden deep within the surging chaotic aura, his eyes, blazing with divine fire, gazing into the distance.

I felt somewhat uneasy.

How could a great being who has attained enlightenment and transcended the concept of 'world' feel uneasy?
If this were told to others, probably no living being would believe it.

The Holy Venerable was relieved when the Sword Ancestor achieved the Dao Source.

I'm glad I made the right choice.

However, when he saw that the Dao Ancestor, with whom he had clashed, had also achieved the Dao Source, he suddenly became uneasy.

Dao Zu Xuan was someone with whom he had actually clashed twice.

If He wins...

The thought of that outcome sent chills down His spine.

suddenly!

"My demise will cause all the chaotic heavens to become extinct, and the worlds to enter their final days!"

A sound that resounded throughout the heavens and the universe, echoing from the Supreme Tai Xuan Realm, reverberated across the chaotic myriad worlds.

The Holy Venerable was taken aback. (End of Chapter)
