The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 298 Suppressing the Ominous, Qingping Sword
Deep within the starry sky, powerful beings emerged from the spatial passage, and the great powers of heaven and earth gathered together.

Even powerful beings from all directions are no exception.

Although there is a distinction between the Central Plains and the Four Directions, they are all beings of the same world. If the evil source within the Jade Capital is leaked, those outside the realm will also be hard-pressed to escape its fate.

Both morally and logically, they have to take action.

Dozens of powerful figures gathered together.

It is the result of the accumulation of this world over countless ages.

Four figures appeared silently; they were the four half-immortals: the Lord of Taiping Dao, Zhong Neng, Ji Yuan, and Xuan Ming.

Seeing Xuanming rise to prominence from behind, the powerful figures, including the Three Half-Immortals, all had mixed feelings.

After exchanging greetings, the powerful beings were filled with apprehension as they gazed at the mysterious portal that appeared deep in the starry sky, emanating a rich aura of the Great Dao. Even now, with only a crack open, the intense ominous and malevolent energy had already terrified them and affected the temperament of all living beings in the world.

If it continues, it's simply unimaginable what will happen.

"Gentlemen, we can't wait any longer."

"Yes, what arrangements are there, and how can they be made as soon as possible?"

The powerful beings from all directions were the first to express their opinions.

Extraterrestrial beings are inherently fierce and aggressive, and they are most affected by the opening of Baiyujing.

Even some who practiced spiritual cultivation were eroded.

As they spoke, the powerful beings from beyond the realm each made their moves.

Three powerful beings from the extraterrestrial demon race joined forces to unleash an array diagram, and a Kunpeng that blotted out the sky appeared, carrying ancient glaciers to seal away the ominous aura, but it was only a drop in the ocean.

Kunpeng was soon tainted by misfortune.

The powerful beings of the extraterrestrial witch clan also intervened, opening the endless abyss. Ancient ferocious beasts such as Zhulong and Qiongqi appeared, absorbing the ominous energy. However, this was only a temporary solution, and the abyss would eventually be filled with misfortune.

At that time, the ferocious beasts will rampage, unleashing an ominous aura, and the endless abyss will collapse, bringing an even greater catastrophe.

The extraterrestrial demons and extraterrestrial dragons also made their move, one unleashing the Myriad Demon Nest and the other the Four Seas Map.

The four directions beyond the borders are protected, and the ominous energy is blocked, but it is difficult to eliminate. It will only accumulate more and more, eventually becoming unbearable and erupting like a long-suppressed volcano.

The powerful beings from beyond the realm looked at the other powerful beings, their meaning clear: We have done our best, it's your turn now.

---

At this moment, all the powerful beings were united in their hatred of the enemy.

The great power of the Central Plains did not hold them back.

They each unleashed their Star Banners, ranging from a hundred to a dozen or so, including Zhong Neng and Ji Yuan.

The Five Elders of the Five Directions, the Antarctic, and Gouchen, among other deities, took over their respective celestial bodies.

The two powerful beings from beyond the realm sensed something; one transformed into a golden crow and took over the Sun Star, while the other transformed into a moon rabbit and took over the Moon Star.

Xuanming waved his sleeve, summoning 365 star flags. He skillfully set up an array, merging the flags with their corresponding main stars, and then looked towards the cosmic starry sky.

One by one, the star flags fell into their corresponding stars.

Some are forged by powerful beings, while others are forged by cultivators. Powerful beings forge at least several at a time, while cultivators forge one at a time.

Despite the limited time and only 1,999 strokes in total, their power should not be underestimated.

With the combined efforts of all the powerful beings, a simplified version of the Zhou Tian Star Array was born. The stars revolved, the Milky Way shone brightly, and the nebulae were magnificent. With the presence of the powerful beings, the ominous energy was blocked in the starry sky.

The powerful beings from beyond the realm were initially awestruck by the might of the great formation, but were overjoyed at the next turn. They were now in the same boat; the stronger the formation, the more likely they were to survive this catastrophe.

"What a magnificent array! If we can refine the rest of the array flags, they will surely possess terrifying power capable of destroying the world."

"Yes, I never imagined that the Central Plains had become so terrifying. If we survive this calamity, we from all corners of the world will seek to learn from the Central Plains."

"If I want to study, then I want to study. This old man is eager to study, which means that this catastrophe is over."

"Haha, what you say is excellent, fellow Daoist!"

……

After the surprise.

The powerful figure from beyond the realm calmed down.

Seeing the ominous aura blocking their way in the starry sky, they discussed solutions with the powerful beings of the Central Plains.

Otherwise, the problems will remain deeply entrenched and difficult to resolve.

The powerful figures each expressed their opinions. Just as they were arguing, the four immortals exchanged a glance, and then simultaneously looked towards the heavens.

A few days ago, Xuanming emerged from seclusion.
They found the leader of the Way of Peace, shared their views on the ominous energy, and discussed its feasibility.

He then returned to the temple, leaving the matter of contacting Zhong Neng and Ji Yuan to the Taiping Dao Master. He couldn't afford to have much contact with these two; even a glance from them made him nauseous.

The four half-immortals have reached a consensus on the solution, but the three half-immortals of Taiping have not spoken. Their eyes are all on Xuanming, clearly indicating that they want him to speak.

After understanding, Xuanming said, "Everyone."

These two short words silenced all the powerful figures, who stopped talking and shifted their attention.

This is Xuanming's current power and might.

Not only because he achieved the status of a demigod, but also because his repeated efforts to stabilize the three realms earned them their respect.

Regardless of their inner thoughts, all the powerful beings admired him to some extent.

Even Zhong Neng and Ji Yuan are the same.

They wanted to hear this fortune teller's solution; perhaps it was another brilliant idea.

Xuanming didn't keep us in suspense. "The so-called 'prevention is worse than suppression' means 'dredging'." He continued, "This ominous aura can only be suppressed for a short time. It is best to disperse it as soon as possible. Otherwise, what we are doing today is just burying our heads in the sand and deceiving ourselves."

When the eighteen levels of hell were created in the past, eighteen powerful beings joined forces to contemplate a corner of the world, guiding and organizing the chaotic energy.

"Recently, all the great powers of heaven and earth have gathered here. Why don't we open another corner of heaven and earth and guide this ominous energy into the chaos?"

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the assembled experts lit up.

Xuanming Banxian truly did not disappoint them.

However, upon further reflection, the powerful beings felt this was inappropriate. How should the chaotic energy be managed? How could they ensure that the chaos wouldn't overflow into the heavens and earth, thus worsening the situation?
One question after another was raised.

Xuanming answered them one by one.

"I have a realm called Taiji Heaven, and I have a path called Hunyuan, both of which can contain chaotic energy."

As for the chaotic backflow, there's no need to worry.

As he spoke, Xuanming revealed his cultivation level.

The starry sky trembled, and the Great Dao roared.

The weight on everyone's shoulders suddenly felt heavy.

Even the most powerful immortals are no exception.

Even the gates of Baiyujing paused slightly.

"This is... the Second Calamity Half-Immortal!"

It has the power to produce a trembling sound.

Zhong Neng swallowed hard.

Ji Yuan felt a chill run down her spine.

The leader of the Way of Peace was slightly taken aback.

Two Calamities, Half-Immortal!

The only one clearly recorded is the Dao Ancestor.

Even the four great Dao Venerables of the past were only half-immortals!
---

All the great powers were shocked, and then overjoyed.

Catastrophe is imminent.

The stronger Xuanming is, the more advantageous it is for them.

The powerful figures immediately began to discuss how to dispel the ominous energy, and each of them clearly divided their tasks.

Several days later, the powerful beings who had once created the eighteen levels of hell set up their formation again, led by three great immortals, tearing open a corner of heaven and earth.

Chaotic energy surged in, and Xuanming made his move, causing the Taiji diagram to fall, evolving into Yin and Yang, absorbing the chaotic energy, and using it as a medium to guide the energy into the Taiji Heaven.

Taiji Heaven, the Supreme Taoist Master makes his move.

Raising his finger, he transformed Yin and Yang, splitting the chaotic energy in two. One part remained in the Taiji Heaven, where it was sorted out, creating heaven and earth, separating the pure from the impure, and gradually increasing the foundation of the Taiji Heaven.

Some of them appeared in Tai Xuan Tian. Daoist Yu Chen raised his hand and swung his sword. The Qingping Sword, which was formed by the fusion of a peach wood staff and a peach wood sword, dispelled the chaos and also increased the foundation of Tai Xuan Tian.
