"laugh!"
Facing the divine blade's aura, Cao Ya flicked his finger, unleashing a burst of profound magic. A surge of auspicious light extinguished the blade's energy and shattered the will of the divine spirit within it.
The spirit god's expression changed, but then he thought, "Cao Ya once killed a supreme being, so it's not surprising that he has such abilities."
"In the past, the Spirit Blade pacified all realms; today, the Divine Blade slays the Supreme One!" the Spirit God chanted, his blade flashing like a bolt of lightning as it slashed towards Cao Ya.
“You buried your past glories long ago. What’s the point of bringing them up again?” Cao Ya said.
“Indeed, it has lost its meaning.” The Spirit God sighed. When he first attained enlightenment and was known as the Spirit Emperor, he had suppressed the forbidden land and protected all living beings, fulfilling the duties of a supreme emperor.
But as he grew old, the torment of walking towards his grave day by day and the constant withering of his life force finally drove the Spirit Emperor mad. He abandoned his glory, fell into complete depravity, and became the Dark Sovereign.
"There's nothing more to say, let's fight!" The spirit god cut off all distracting thoughts, his coldness as icy as ice.
"To wait for the immortal path I've calculated, I'm willing to sacrifice everything, even burying all living beings and slaughtering the universe!"
The voice of the spirit was incredibly cruel; just listening to it made one feel as if mountains of corpses and seas of blood were rushing towards them.
“Even without us, you wouldn’t have succeeded,” Cao Ya sneered.
Because the correct path to immortality has already passed, and the next one is unknown, perhaps tens of thousands of years from now.
“Killing you and possessing your life force as the supreme being of this era would extend my years of slumber in the forbidden land by at least a million years.”
"This means we'll have a few more opportunities."
"Therefore, Cao Ya, let your life fulfill my path to immortality!"
The spirit's long, black hair flew wildly, gleaming like a blade of energy, stretching as far as the eye could see.
The spirit blade in his hand was incredibly sharp; even before he made a move, it could pierce through the void, and a wisp of its aura could annihilate a great star, plunging it into eternal darkness.
The destructive power of such supreme emperors is unparalleled in the mortal world.
Of course, Ling Shen was powerful, and Cao Ya had an even better record, but instead of losing, he gained the upper hand.
You're not qualified!
Cao Ya brought down the divine sword, and with a whoosh, it seemed as if a long river emerged, from which countless Cao Yas jumped out, each with a different temperament—some bold, some indifferent, some melancholy, and some gentle. They all took a sword, looked up at the spirit god in unison, and then swung it out in unison.
Suddenly—
"Boom..."
Countless sword techniques erupted, converging into a long river of swordsmanship, annihilating all obstacles, and aimed at the spirit god as it fell.
The spirit god's longsword struck, but it couldn't completely block the attack; some of the sword energy passed through, severely injuring him.
"Wow!
"The spirit vomited blood, his face turned pale, and his expression became much more gloomy."
At the same time, the Taiyin Human Emperor Seal and the Immortal Tears Green Gold Gate also descended, beating the drowning dog and trying to take the life of the spirit god.
"ah!
"!" The spirit roared, his indifferent demeanor gone, replaced by fear in the face of life-or-death crisis.
The once invincible Dao heart was flawed after it was severed. Even though it returned to its peak, it was only superficially healed, and there were still traces of damage.
"Whoosh!"
!
The spirit blade swept across, its supreme swordsmanship not only sharp and brimming with killing intent, but also possessing an innate essence, as if originating from the very beginning of creation.
The spirit is formed from a wisp of innate energy, and can be considered a special holy spirit. His imperial path has both the characteristics of his true self and the sword intent he cultivated later.
When the two are combined, they become the Primordial Spirit Emperor, whose might shook an entire era!
However, Cao Ya remained unmoved. He thought to himself, when it comes to sword intent, who in this [Covering the Sky] universe can compare to the Undying Emperor?
Over the years, I have indirectly come into contact with the Immortal Emperor.
"Besides, I, in the [Shepherd's Chronicle] universe, am also a master of the sword!" Cao Ya thought to himself. Death energy swept across the sky, engulfing the countless sword lights, and almost tainted the spirit's body, causing it to perish.
"So strong!"
All the saints in the universe were startled.
Although Cao Ya's achievements are comparable to those of the first-rate emperors in history, the fact that Cao Ya has not yet become an emperor makes people feel uncomfortable.
Of course, they also guessed that, given Cao Ya's current situation, proving the Dao would certainly not be an easy task.
Moreover, there is already a great emperor in this world!
People sighed, saying that Supreme Cao Ya, Supreme Ye Fan, and all the heroes of the Quasi-Emperor realm had lost their hope, and they either had to wait for future generations or simply grow old and die.
I have never heard of anyone who could defy the imperial way of the current emperor and become an emperor against the will of heaven.
"Although the Primordial Spirit God is powerful, many Ancient Emperors and Heavenly Venerables have already bowed down under Cao Ya's Supreme Sword. This Primordial Emperor will certainly be no exception!"
People have developed absolute confidence in Cao Ya.
This is the prestige accumulated by defeating supreme beings one after another. Stepping on blood and bones, bathed in wind and fire, I have reached the peak!
However, Cao Ya himself did not dare to be careless, for the ultimate moves of a top-level expert when they are fighting desperately are extremely terrifying.
As expected, Cao Ya's prediction came true.
Seeing that his own people were in grave danger under Cao Ya's sword energy, completely losing the majesty of the ancient emperor and the sacredness, the spirits were furious and longed to turn the situation around.
He activated the forbidden spell from the last chapter of the Spirit Emperor Ancient Scripture, which he had created. The spirit blade slashed out, seemingly plain and unremarkable, but its sharpness was concealed, and all its power was gathered back, waiting to explode upon contact!
With his left hand, Ling Shen made a mysterious hand seal and uttered a low, guttural sound. It was impossible to understand what he was saying, but it sounded like an ancient incantation, and it also carried a mysterious aura of immortals.
"Splash splash~~~"
In an instant, countless divine feathers danced in the air, pure and immaculate, untouched by dust, as if they came from a celestial realm, untouched by any trace of worldly dust.
"The power of ascension! The radiance of immortality!"
"Created at the height of the spirit god's power, hoping to ascend to immortality through it, but ultimately failed, and in despair, he conceived the idea of entering the forbidden zone."
A supreme being revealed ancient secrets.
Although few live longer than the spirits, they do exist.
They witnessed the birth of the spirit as a living being, and they also witnessed the spirit's attainment of enlightenment. Their understanding of human beings was unparalleled by others.
The legend of "ascending to immortality" has existed since ancient times, but in the past thousands of years, when has there ever been a real-life example of it?
"Even that Ascension Emperor from the ancient era passed away peacefully, and his divine dynasty was wiped out by the Lord of the Wilderness with a single palm strike."
The Supreme One spoke, his voice filled with boundless sorrow.
It was not for the spirits or gods, nor for the Ascended Emperor, but for themselves.
But nobody sympathized with them!
All spirits wished for the Supreme One's defeat and immediate death!
"Cao Ya, prepare to die!" the spirit god roared, his silver divine blade radiating holy light, exuding an awe-inspiring power.
The divine feathers danced with the blade's edge, intertwined with each other, and any Daoist essence that touched them became extremely difficult to deal with; even a Great Emperor would be injured.
"As expected of the Spirit Emperor's forbidden killing move!"
The Immortal Granny and the Second Supreme God of the Divine Ruins in the other two battlefields couldn't help but speak up, revealing their apprehension.
"Old hag, you're in danger yourself, and you still have time to worry about others?" Ye Fan shouted, punching the old hag back thousands of miles. Her old face, as withered as tree bark, trembled three times, as if it was about to collapse.
"Clang~~"
The bells rang out, golden light filled the air, and flames roared. The Golden Crow Emperor and the Supreme Being of the Divine Ruins fought fiercely, their battle evenly matched.
Neither Ye Fan nor the Golden Crow Emperor were worried that Cao Ya would be unable to withstand the Spirit God.
They are all confident they can resist.
"【A Smile While Picking Flowers】! Six Paths of Reincarnation! 【The Extinction of the Dao and the Birth of the Dao】! Deathly Sword Intent!" Cao Ya roared in his heart, using multiple divine skills and exerting all his strength to directly shatter the blade light in his most proficient way. Moreover, the deathly aura surged and the sword intent rained down, engulfing the divine feather and annihilating it.
"Bang!
Cao Ya rushed forward and nailed the spirit god to the edge of the universe with a single sword strike. A large amount of royal blood was spilled, each drop like a river, seemingly flowing for thousands of days and nights without ever drying up.
Honestly, I've been using a source-switching app to read and follow my favorite books lately. It offers various source switching options and multiple audio reading options. Huanyuanapp works on both Android and Apple devices.
The spirit roared in fury, unleashing its full power, attempting to break free from the Eternal Blue Gold Sword and fight again. However, the great seal struck, and the divine gate pressed down, extinguishing the spirit's last resistance. It could only die here with resentment.
An ancient emperor, who was supreme in the nine heavens and ten earths during his life, died a tragic death, with rivers of blood flowing and his corpse nailed to the ground by swords!
People held their breath, excited, and this thought also crossed their minds.
This is not the first ancient emperor to die at the hands of Cao Ya Supreme, and it will certainly not be the last!
No matter how powerful the ancient emperors and celestial beings were, they would all fall under the sword of Cao Ya Supreme!
"Swoosh~" Cao Ya activated his sword intent, annihilating the spirit god's soul and will. The seal and divine gate shrank, hanging on his hair. He held his sword and strode out, focusing on the other two battlefields.
The spirit is dead, and therefore not worth our attention.
Cao Ya did not intervene to help Ye Fan or the Golden Crow Emperor.
They can take down the Immortal Mother and the last supreme being of the Divine Ruins.
"puff!
!
Ye Fan attacked fiercely, tearing off one of the Immortal Granny's arms, causing her to writhe in pain, her face contorted, becoming even uglier, like a demon.
In fact, when she was young, Fairy Granny was also incredibly beautiful and the most beautiful woman in the world, and was known as the most beautiful woman in the universe!
When she defeated all the heroes, ascended to the pinnacle, and was hailed as the Empress, countless admirers followed her, more than enough to squeeze out several star regions.
But that empress, with her charm and talent, is now just a repulsive old woman.
Of all the spirits in the universe, only the first incarnation of the Immortal Mother is revered!
"boom!
"The Fairy Granny witnessed the defeat and death of the Spirit God, and suffered injuries herself. For some reason, she had a premonition."
Her glorious journey as an ancient empress has probably come to an end.
But she was not willing to give up!
With a roar, the Immortal Granny made her move again, unleashing the Jade Ruyi. Its radiance was faintly visible, and each ray of light seemed to contain a galaxy, incredibly heavy and as tough as a star. It was the world's number one treasure!
The jade ruyi dangled down, seemingly calm, but in the eyes of a powerful being, it was clearly a real, vast world, crushing the void and trying to kill Ye Fan.
"Bang!"
"The Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron rose up, blocking the Jade Ruyi. The collision of the two supreme divine weapons could destroy heaven and earth."
"Stop!" Ye Fan charged out, activating the Xingzi Secret Technique, as if he had stepped into the river of time, transforming into a stream of light that even divine sense could hardly detect.
"The Secret of the Word 'Xing' of the Celestial Venerable of Freedom!" The Immortal Granny's face darkened. The effects of the Nine Secrets were unparalleled throughout history, yet even with her abilities, she had only collected a portion of them, none of which contained the Secret of the Word 'Xing'.
In the end, Ye Fan used all sorts of miraculous secret techniques to strike down the Immortal Granny, causing her to cough up blood and suffer severe injuries. Her aged imperial body was also shattered into pieces.
Immortal Granny wanted to rebuild her true form, but Ye Fan's Heavenly Emperor Fist blasted her into dust. The fist's intent suppressed and obliterated all of Immortal Granny's thoughts within her flesh and blood.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Golden Crow Emperor activated the Golden Emperor Bell of the Dao Tribulation, and the raging flames also burned to death that Supreme Being of the Divine Ruins.
And so, the border battlefield, which had just been fiercely fighting and shaking the heavens, suddenly fell silent.
The three ancient emperors met their tragic ends, and countless cultivators cheered upon witnessing it.
Only a portion of the ancient royal families were in despair. Even the ancient emperors were no match for them. Their desire to overthrow the Heavenly Court and kill Ye Fan and Cao Ya was now completely futile!
The restricted area surrounding BeiDou also fell silent.
The supreme beings of the Primordial Ancient Mine and Burial Sky Island resolved to remain in slumber and endure this era.
Tens of thousands of years later, after Cao Ya and the others have died, they will go out and start a rebellion!
"Anyway, we can still hold on!"
"Moreover, there are enough Supreme Beings within the forbidden area, so we are not afraid of Cao Ya and his group coming straight to our door!"
The supreme beings of these two forbidden lands have fallen into a deep slumber, which is quite reassuring, with only a sliver of subconscious awareness remaining vigilant against the outside world.
Cao Ya and the other two left the desolate edge of the universe and came to the Big Dipper.
He inspected the last two forbidden zones, displaying the demeanor of the supreme ruler of the world, and the world bowed in submission.
They ventured deep into the Immortal Mausoleum, the Divine Ruins, and the Undying Mountain, studying the structure of the forbidden zones of life. In the end, they did not take anything with them, but left it in the Big Dipper, making it a dangerous place for cultivators to explore.
Ye Fan and the Golden Crow Emperor only took a portion of many resources to cultivate their descendants.
For them, these things could no longer have any effect on the Supreme Being.
Worldly practitioners, grateful for the grace of the Three Jewels, should build temples and offer incense.
They had already left; Ye Fan returned to the Heavenly Court, while the Golden Crow Emperor returned to Fire Mulberry Star.
Cao Ya concealed his aura and traveled to countless realms, especially desolate and lifeless places, hoping to gain some enlightenment, and thus completed the "Death Qi Sword Manual".
On the main road, the Golden Crow Emperor is currently the one who has traveled the furthest.
However, Ye Fan is also catching up, and from what Cao Ya knows, he's about to overtake him.
With the two of them by his side, Cao Ya felt a great sense of urgency.
Due to the damage caused by successive battles, it took Cao Ya several hundred years to recover.
During this period, all races in the universe prospered, various sects vied for supremacy, and great saints and quasi-emperors emerged one after another. Even a number of high-level quasi-emperors appeared.
Although the Golden Crow Emperor had attained enlightenment, the examples of Cao Ya and Ye Fan were there for all to see. After their initial despair, many geniuses naturally wanted to emulate them and achieve enlightenment in an unconventional way, with their combat power directly comparable to that of the great emperors of the time!
It is said that after recovering, the Golden Crow Emperor even sparred with Ye Fan, but was defeated.
Upon hearing this news, Cao Ya couldn't help but chuckle. That unlucky Golden Crow Emperor had still chosen this path and was going to be suppressed to death by Ye Fan!
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with me! I haven't built any faction! That thing is time-consuming and laborious, I'd be wasting my time..."
Cao Yadigu.
What troubled him was still his own imperial path, which was stuck and unable to move.
In order to gain insight into the meaning of death, Cao Ya relied on his extraordinary magical power to travel to and from the Azure Netherworld, venturing into any infamous and dangerous place, but unfortunately, he gained very little.
Even places where quasi-emperors might shed blood, Cao Ya, with his combat prowess, traversed them with ease.
Later, Cao Ya had to admit that his powerful magic, coupled with a lack of experience, was actually detrimental to his understanding of the imperial path.
Of course, Cao Ya wouldn't be so foolish as to dissipate his powers just to experience and savor death.
"I have an infinite lifespan, so let's take it slow, what's there to be afraid of?"
