Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1019 - 1016: Enlightenment of the Heavenly Dao!
"If you want the Yu Emperor’s Treasure Cauldron and the Soul Summoning Grass, fine, but you’ll have to ask the sword in my hand first. Do you agree?"
Li Chen stood with his sword, eyes thundering, staring intently at the Heng Mountain Ancestor.
Just need to wait for another quarter-hour, and Little Dragon will completely devour the Bone Dragon, and its power will rise to another level.
By then, he will be able to reverse the universe.
The Heng Mountain Ancestor seemed to have anticipated Li Chen’s answer.
He didn’t get angry but just laughed eerily.
"Very well, then I shall ask, how about the sword in your hand?"
As his words fell, the True Yuan within him surged suddenly, the entire chair became jade-green, raising a tumultuous wave, overwhelming as it swept toward Li Chen.
This strike was enough to move mountains and fill seas!
Li Chen frowned slightly, Seven-star Dragon Abyss quickly slid across his palm, nourishing it with Essence Blood.
With the continuous infusion of Li Chen’s blood into the Seven-star Dragon Abyss, its previously dim blade slowly shimmered with a sunset-like red glow.
A Sword Rainbow like a silver river trickled across the night sky. Like a Blood Moon rising, illuminating the heavens.
When the Blood Moon rose to a hundred yards high, it suddenly extended its body, transforming into a gigantic dragon with an imposing presence, overlooking Heng Mountain Ancestor and his men.
"Blood Moon Slash!"
This sword strike was a new killer move Li Chen created, based on the previous Moonlight Slash, integrating the Blood Moon from the River of Oblivion.
As long as the Blood Moon above didn’t fall, his Sword Shadow would continue like the vast river.
"Boom!"
Explosive thunder roared between Li Chen and the Heng Mountain Ancestor, the splattering fireworks like those blossoming on the Lantern Festival, dazzling and brilliant.
The Heng Mountain Ancestor was taken aback, a crescent saber emerged in his palm. The blade trembled, emitting a buzzing sound, with tiny phosphorescent green lights like countless fireflies surrounding it.
Li Chen was startled, it was a Soul Device!
A Soul Device is a weapon specifically for attacking the Divine Soul.
But crafting a Soul Device is extremely complex.
It’s said that after the last Artifact Refining Master Gongsun Long ascended to immortality, the secret technique for crafting a Soul Device was lost.
As of now, it has been three thousand years.
Therefore, Soul Devices, which were already very rare, are now even more scarce, once one is damaged, it’s one less.
Never could he have imagined that the Heng Mountain Ancestor still had one.
And judging by its appearance, the grade of this Soul Device was not low!
In fact, the Seven-star Dragon Abyss in Li Chen’s hand also counts as a Soul Device.
However, it is not complete, considered a semi-finished product.
"Li Chen, this is the Netherworld Crescent Moon Saber, nurtured by my Divine Soul for sixty years to evolve. It was originally intended for the elders of the True Immortal Alliance. Now I decide to first use your blood to consecrate it!"
No sooner had the murderous words fallen, than the crescent saber in the Heng Mountain Ancestor’s hand slashed horizontally through the air. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"Clang!"
The saber rang sharply, the slashed Elemental Saber Arc quickly formed two, then divided into four, and the four into eight, cycling like this, until they became countless Elemental Saber Arcs.
The saber arcs were bizarre in shape, multicolored, endless, extending towards Li Chen like a tempest.
"Hiss!"
Seeing this strike, everyone present was incredibly shocked.
Whether it was Little Demon Immortal, Lian Hongshang, or Baili Xiang, Sha Moke, whoever they were, none would be confident to withstand this lethal strike from Heng Mountain Ancestor if their positions were switched with Li Chen.
Little Demon Immortal and Lian Hongshang displayed distraught expressions, their eyes filled with waves of worry.
Baili Xiang and the Bloodthirsty Monk, however, were like they were on adrenaline, excitedly eager.
Sha Moke and Baru, the two Barbarian experts, besides excitement, felt a deep-seated unease within.
They supported Heng Mountain Ancestor to create a puppet, not a wolf that could turn on its master.
The terrifying power Heng Mountain Ancestor displayed had already exceeded their control.
Beyond the High Priest, there might be no one to subdue him.
But now, as the High Priest’s end approaches, he urgently needs the Soul Summoning Grass for sustaining life...
As everyone was engulfed in their own thoughts, Li Chen suddenly moved.
As serene as a virginal maiden, as swift as a fleeing rabbit!
He stepped on a Seven-star pace, rising against the air. Every step he took rang like a battle drum, astounding heaven and earth, causing the saber light to pause, its rhythm briefly disordered.
Li Chen seized the opportunity to slash a sword, terrifying storms, thundering lightning, and other apocalyptic natural phenomena accompanied the Sword Intent, surging through the heavens like the unleashed Yellow River.
"Clang clang!"
"Clang clang!"
"Clang clang!"
The saber arcs and Sword Shadow collided mid-air, like thousands of troops clashing, swallowing the earth like tigers.
Saber light circled, Sword Shadow resonated!
In the blink of an eye, the two sides engaged tens of thousands of times.
The two deadly strikes seemed at times like relentless enemies, and at times like a passionate intertwining of lovers, weaving together. Like a spiral, they coiled into the void, ascending to the Nine Heavens Cloud. Seemingly, they aimed to devour all the sun, moon, and stars of the sky.
Until it spun to the limit, becoming a single point.
This was like the singularity of the universe being born, capable of shrinking infinitely, or expanding infinitely.
Suddenly, a long-lost feeling welled up in Li Chen’s heart.
At this moment, he seemed to understand the mysteries of the entire universe.
The world in all directions is called the universe, from ancient times to the present is called the cosmos!
The Earth is a universe, Jiuzhou is a universe, the vast starry sky is a universe, and the tiny dust is a universe.
The whole world is composed of countless universes of varying sizes.
This resonates with the Buddhist saying, "One flower, one world; one leaf, one Bodhi."
In fact, whether Dao, Buddha, Confucianism, or demons, devils, ghosts. Regardless of right or wrong, regardless of their starting points or actions, the final destination is the same,
that is to break the "universe" shackles above their heads.
Different paths lead to the same goal, that is the logic!
So it is!
Li Chen suddenly realized, a Hexagram light suddenly hovered above his head.
Immediately, a giant bolt of lightning tore through the void, illuminating heaven and earth in stark whiteness.
Li Chen looked up at the sky, a strange smile curling at his mouth.
This is the Heavenly Punishment!
And it’s the best evidence of his enlightenment of the Heavenly Dao!
As long as he successfully overcomes this Heavenly Tribulation, he can successfully break through the shackles of life and death and condense the Nascent Soul!
In an instant, the Dead Soul Ghosts in the River of Oblivion wept, scrambling to sink to the riverbed, trembling with fear.
Many dead spirit ghosts with weaker cultivation vanished into smoke when they saw the giant lightning tearing the night.
However, they did not die in fear.
Instead, they disappeared in extreme shock and excitement.
After all, living eternally in the dark River of Oblivion, they had never seen such brilliant light in their lifetime.
Even if it was the Death God’s light that would wipe them out...
Heng Mountain Ancestor, Sha Moke, Baru, Little Demon Immortal, Lian Hongshang, all of them were dumbfounded, witnessing such an unbelievable scene.
Especially for Heng Mountain Ancestor, the scene before him was intensely familiar.
Cultivation is inherently about fighting fate with Heaven, going against the Heavenly course.
Therefore, upon reaching a certain cultivation level, Heaven will send down the Heavenly Punishment to maintain the balance of this world.
However, the Heavenly Tribulation Li Chen invoked was far stronger than the one he faced when condensing the Nascent Soul back then, tens of times more powerful. The two compared, it’s like seeing a kid magician against a true mystical beast.
It seems that with Li Chen’s talent being so monstrous, even Heaven could not tolerate him!
...
The third Chapter is presented, this Chapter was a bit stuck, and some research had to be done.
For example: the phrase "The four corners of heaven and earth is called the universe, from ancient times to the present is called the cosmos" comes from the "Huainanzi: Yuan Dao Chapter"
"One flower, one world; one leaf, one Bodhi": comes from the Buddhist classic "Huayan Sutra"
Alright, Little Le won’t show off any longer. It’s almost 1 a.m., good night, everyone!
Finally, humbly asking for some votes, is that okay?
