Chapter 168 Severing the Dao and Destroying the Fruit (Please Subscribe)

But at the same time, Chu Tianshu's situation became increasingly dangerous.

After all, he has not yet reached the pinnacle of immortality; he has only been able to briefly clash with an Immortal King, which is already his limit.

At this moment, however, three Celestial King-level beings attacked him, far exceeding his ability to cope.

If we don't handle this situation properly today, we may perish completely in the Immortal Ancient Era.

boom!
With a loud bang, Chu Tianshu was accidentally punched in the chest by Xuan Shang.

In an instant, his body caved in, almost pierced through by Xuan Shang's punch.

Originally, the punch was aimed at Chu Tianshu's apex, but at the critical moment, Chu Tianshu narrowly dodged it; otherwise, he might have been seriously injured by the punch.

At the same time, Chu Tianshu raised his left fist and slammed it hard into Xuan Shang's shoulder blade, instantly creating a huge gash from which gray blood splattered, staining the sky and earth.

On the other side, the other two Immortal Kings were also unwilling to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they both unleashed their killing moves, wanting to completely eliminate Chu Tianshu.

In an instant, endless light engulfed this world, the laws of nature were in chaos, and strange phenomena arose.

Terrifying aftershocks surged across the heavens and earth, creating new worlds from the collisions, only to be instantly extinguished by divine light.

Even the long river of time in this region was severed, with countless fragments of time flying around the four of them, depicting the changes of time and the transformation of the universe.

This is the terrifying aspect of the war between immortal kings; their battle can even pierce through the long river of time and evolve the birth and death of heaven and earth.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Chu Tianshu roared, his physical body glowing, and the five great secret realms resonated with him, their energy soaring to the heavens, spanning the past, present, and future.

He pushed his Dao-Slaying Sword Technique to its limit, channeling strands of Dao-Slaying power into the bodies of the three Immortal Kings, holding back the power until it was fully unleashed!
"Humph!"

"Useless!" Xuan Shang scoffed, looking at Chu Tianshu who was covered in blood, and mocked, "Taiyi, no matter how you struggle today, defeat and death are your only fate!"

Xuan Shang was very confident. He was no weakling who had stood out from countless geniuses and reached the level of Immortal King.

Even if the other two Immortal Kings didn't intervene, he was confident he could kill Chu Tianshu alone.

In his view, Taiyi had never stepped into the realm of the Immortal King. Even if he could briefly unleash the power of an Immortal King, what difference would it make? He would eventually run out of strength.

"Taiyi, you shouldn't have refused us. The defeat of the Primal Ancient Realm was inevitable. Even if we didn't intervene and you grew stronger, you couldn't change the overall situation!" Ku Ye's voice was cold, a stark contrast to his previous gentle demeanor, now exuding an aura of supreme dominance.

In his view, even if Taiyi truly grows up, so what? At best, he will only be a Celestial King giant, and he will have no chance of turning the tide of the battle.

After all, the truly top-tier kings from the other realms have never joined the battle; they have always remained in the Boundary Sea, and some have not returned for several epochs.

Otherwise, with their strength, destroying the Primordial Ancient Realm would have been a piece of cake. Although Wuzhong Liudao and others were powerful, they ultimately did not reach the level of supreme giants.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Chu Tianshu's face was pale, and he coughed up bright red blood, with tiny fragments of internal organs visible in the shadows.

When an immortal king unleashes his full power, he can create a vast and boundless ancient realm, reversing the course of heaven and earth, his might shaking the ages.

He was now facing an attack from three Immortal Kings, each of whom was far stronger than him, making it extremely difficult for Chu Tianshu to cope.

The continuous collisions had already severely injured him.

However, the three immortal kings opposite him still looked quite relaxed, and apart from their slightly disordered auras, they were not injured at all.

"What a pity! What a pity! No matter how talented and unparalleled you are, there will eventually be a day when your career comes to an end."

"You are still young, with an endless bright future ahead of you. Why are you so resolute, leaving no room for maneuver?"

Ku Ye shook his head, revealing a sorrowful and pitiful expression, but he showed no mercy in his hands.

"Tear!"

With a tearing sound, a blue longsword sliced ​​through Chu Tianshu's chest, spraying blood everywhere.

The murderous intent was overwhelming, nearly cleaving Chu Tianshu in two, and drops of immortal blood stained the sky crimson.

A terrifying mist lingered over Chu Tianshu's wounds, hindering his recovery.

Even more terrifying, these gray mists are subtly altering Chu Tianshu's flesh and blood, trying to pull him into darkness.

The three kings' power was terrifying, and their strength far surpassed Chu Tianshu's, leaving him with no power to resist.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Chu Tianshu would still have a fighting chance, but the other side was too complacent and actually sent out three Immortal Kings.

With such caution, it's no wonder that the ancient realm suffered a crushing defeat in the late Immortal Era, barely managing to inflict any significant damage on the alien realm.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"It's not enough. Activating the power of severing the Dao at this time probably won't cause too much damage. We need to continue to consolidate our strength."

Chu Tianshu's mood grew increasingly heavy. Faced with the siege of three Immortal Kings whose strength far surpassed his own, he could only hope to survive by using the power of the Dao Severing Technique to sever their Dao Fruits at the crucial moment.

If they continue fighting head-on, defeat is only a matter of time.

"kill!"

Xuan Shang roared, his black hair fluttering, connecting the entire universe, unleashing an unparalleled fist intent that shook the past, present, and future.

With a single punch, all things were annihilated, the Great Dao receded, and all existence vanished.

boom!
Chu Tianshu was not to be outdone and swung his left fist to meet the attack head-on, but in an instant, he was knocked back and his body almost exploded.

Although his physical body was powerful, he ultimately failed to reach the realm of Immortal King. To be able to clash head-on with an Immortal King like Xuan Shang was already an extremely rare feat. Just then, the attacks of the other two Immortal Kings arrived one after another, with divine rays of light showering down, illuminating the heavens and earth and stirring the long river of time.

when!
While parrying Ku Ye's cyan longsword with his own sword, Chu Tianshu also punched the other man's black halberd to avoid its sharp edge.

However, his strength was ultimately far inferior to theirs, and in an instant, his body was covered in several more wounds.

A terrifying aura coursed through his body, annihilating everything in its path and destroying his physical form.

"war!"

Chu Tianshu roared to the sky, forcibly suppressing the injuries in his body, and took the initiative to attack the three kings.

At this moment, he had no choice but to inject as much Dao-Slaying Power as possible before his peak combat power declined, in order to gain a chance of survival later.

If escape is impossible, then it's better to die a glorious death in battle.

For Chu Tianshu, death was not something he feared.

He once enjoyed the reverence of all spirits and the supreme glory at the pinnacle, but he also fell into endless darkness, withered for ninety thousand years, and was burned to ashes in the fire of the Dao, and was reborn from the ashes.

Since Chu Tianshu began his cultivation, he has cried, laughed, experienced glory and also faced setbacks. The life-and-death crises he has faced are far more than just this one.

Every reversal of fortune and transformation is a struggle for survival against all odds.

He can accept failure, but he will never bow his head, much less choose to abandon himself in order to survive.

He will never bow his head, whether in the past, present, or future.

Poor and strong, do not fall into the aspirations of the sky!
"kill!"

Chu Tianshu roared, his five secret realms glowed, and the Great Dao resounded endlessly. He could feel that after each bloody battle, his Dao and Dharma were also being perfected. His Dao Fruit was becoming more and more brilliant, and its eternal light shone on all the heavens, as if he was about to take that step.

The ultimate peak of immortality that he had been searching for had quietly opened a crack in front of him, but unfortunately, Chu Tianshu did not have time to break through at this moment.

He faced the most terrifying siege of his life, his most difficult battle, as three immortal kings, far more powerful than him, attacked, intending to annihilate him.

This battle was so fierce that the heavens and earth were plunged into darkness, all paths vanished, and everything was utterly destroyed, turning into endless chaos.

Chu Tianshu's body was repeatedly blown apart, but he managed to rebuild it and continued to fight the three until he was completely exhausted.

The bloody battle did not come to an end until three days and three nights later.

boom!
A mangled corpse fell from the sky, its body covered in wounds—sword marks, halberd marks, fist marks—some even piercing through the body, exposing its internal organs.

These wounds were incredibly terrifying, surrounded by supreme laws that hindered their healing. The crystalline immortal blood that spilled out even crushed the chaos.

At the same time, three supreme and magnificent figures descended from the heavens, their boundless aura permeating the universe, as if three vast and boundless universes were suppressing the entire situation.

However, they did not rush to take action, but instead remained calm.

After three days and three nights of fierce fighting, this human prodigy could no longer hold on. He was injured to the core, struck by one Immortal King Law after another, and even his primordial spirit became dim and lifeless.

Even if they give up, it's unlikely that Chu Tianshu will survive.

"Taiyi, your resistance is ultimately futile."

"You should still be breathing, right? Stand up and say goodbye to this world properly."

"If you have an afterlife, remember not to oppose my clan in your next life!" Xuan Shang said coldly.

After three days and three nights of fierce fighting, this human prodigy finally reached the point of exhaustion. Even he had to admire his opponent's tenacity.

Unfortunately, all of this will come to an end, and this once-in-a-millennium genius will finally come to a complete end.

After a long while, the mangled corpse finally reacted. First, its fingers twitched slightly, and then the bloody corpse stood up shakily, still clutching the hilt of an ancient sword in its hand, but unfortunately, the sword itself had completely shattered.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Chu Tianshu coughed a few times with difficulty and stood up unsteadily.

The three immortal kings opposite them still maintained their imposing momentum, as if the battle had no effect on them at all. Their aura remained at its peak, without slipping in the slightest.

"You guys are too confident! You should have just killed me outright, without leaving me any chance!"

Chu Tianshu's voice was weak, yet it carried an overwhelming confidence, as if he were the ultimate victor.

"lie!"

"I think your spirit has been shattered by a series of battles, how can you utter such nonsense!"

Xuan Shang chuckled disdainfully, his expression full of mockery.

He didn't believe that this human prodigy had any trump cards up his sleeve; he thought it was all just self-deception.

If he really had some secret weapon, why didn't he use it during the previous bloody battle? After all, if they hadn't held back, he would have really died.

On the other side, Ku Ye also shook his head and smiled.

"Young man, confidence is indeed a good thing sometimes, but it shouldn't be..."

But before he could finish speaking, a terrifying whisper reached the ears of all three of them.

"Sever! The Dao! Annihilate! The Fruit!"
