This great world, which was in the prime of cultivation and could rival the Immortal Realm, was destroyed in an instant. One after another, majestic figures returned to the present world from the long river of time, but they were still unable to contend with those terrifying dark creatures. Some Immortal Kings even chose to betray and fall into endless darkness.
All that's left is to struggle to survive.
The dark creatures are too terrifying; even the Celestial King is far from being their match.
In the end, a supreme immortal king chose to sacrifice himself, buying all living beings a moment of respite.
"Even... such supreme powerhouses cannot stop the invasion of darkness?"
Even across the vast expanse of time and space, everyone felt a profound sense of despair and suffocation permeating their hearts.
Unlike before, this time they witnessed countless lives perish, immortal kings shed blood, and supreme immortal kings sacrifice themselves to preserve a sliver of hope for survival.
"Could it be that the turning point of all this lies with the Heaven-Slaying Sword?"
Everyone quickly thought of the item to be auctioned this time, the Zhutian Sword. So far, they have not seen any trace of the sword. Could this sword be the turning point of everything?
Soon, just as everyone wished, a white-robed man appeared before them. He carried an ancient sword on his back and gazed at the countless terrifying figures isolated outside the Great Realm with unwavering eyes. However, compared to those towering figures, the aura emanating from the white-robed man was less than dust.
"Only at the Saint Realm? Could it be that the Heaven-Slaying Sword is related to this man in white?"
"How is that possible? It's called the Heaven-Slaying Artifact, so it must be an immortal artifact at the level of immortality. No matter how powerful a saint is, how could he possibly reach the True Immortal realm before that barrier shattered?"
"That barrier can only hold for a maximum of ten thousand years. Ten thousand years is indeed a long time, but it is just a tiny ripple on the path to immortality. How easy is it to become an immortal?"
No one had high hopes for that young man carrying the ancient sword. Even if he was a genius who defied the heavens, so what?
Becoming a true immortal in ten thousand years is of no use; it doesn't change the overall situation at all.
but...
If the Heaven-Slaying Sword were a celestial weapon, that would be acceptable.
But as time went by, people realized they were wrong, terribly wrong.
"What kind of monster is this?"
One hundred years...
In just one hundred years, the boy has grown to the point of attaining the status of a true immortal, which is simply unbelievable!
Even supreme beings like the Carefree Immortal King, the Three Burials Immortal King, and the Willow God felt a sense of unreality. They were certain that the white-robed youth was not the reincarnation of an ancient powerhouse.
Is becoming an immortal in a hundred years truly a qualification that humans can possess?
"A real monster!"
The Carefree Immortal King cursed inwardly. It took him three thousand years to enter the realm of immortality, which was already among the fastest. Throughout history, there were very few who could rival him.
But what about this person?
One hundred years?
Even the reincarnation of a Celestial King isn't this outrageous.
However, over the past century, they have also learned the identity of the man in white.
The man in white was named Tai Xuan, and the ancient sword behind him was the Zhutian Sword. Over the past hundred years, he had earned a great reputation with the Zhutian Sword and gained the appreciation of many immortal kings and powerful figures.
Many powerful immortal kings placed their hopes on Tai Xuan, hoping that he could reach the elusive Emperor Realm and end this endless darkness and turmoil.
In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years have passed.
The barrier did not break as expected during these ten thousand years. One after another, powerful immortal kings chose to sacrifice their own Dao fruits, buying more time for Tai Xuan.
This scene silenced everyone.
Even those ancient and immortal celestial kings and powerful beings could be so powerless, so powerless that they could only sacrifice themselves to prolong their lives.
At this moment, the man in white lived up to expectations, reaching the realm of the Supreme Immortal King, bearing the fate of all living beings.
"But... even the Supreme Immortal King realm is not enough to end this dark turmoil," the Carefree Immortal King sighed. 'Supreme' may be supreme, but it is not truly supreme.
Unlike giants like the Carefree Immortal King, who were concerned about the outcome of the Dark Turmoil, the people of the Three Thousand Dao Domains had burning eyes at this moment. The man who called himself Tai Xuan had already reached the Immortal King realm, so wouldn't that mean that the Heaven-Slaying Sword was an unparalleled Immortal King weapon?
A supreme immortal artifact!
If they could obtain a supreme immortal artifact, the aura emanating from it would likely be enough to make even a true immortal bleed and an immortal king retreat.
"This item is worth fighting for with all your might!"
This is what everyone is thinking.
Not to mention that a supreme immortal king artifact must contain traces of that supreme immortal king who called himself Tai Xuan. If one could even glimpse a tiny bit of it, that would be an unparalleled opportunity!
"Could this... be the limit?"
Willow God, Carefree Immortal King, Three Burials Immortal King and others showed hope. It was possible that the Immortal King named Tai Xuan could break through that last barrier and ascend to the highest realm.
Achieving immortality in a hundred years and becoming an unparalleled immortal king in ten thousand years—even the Willow Goddess would be humbled by such talent.
Only Xu Qinghan's eyes showed a hint of disappointment. The man named Tai Xuan was indeed exceptionally talented, but... there was no time left.
As Xu Qinghan had predicted, another ten thousand years passed, the spiritual energy of that great world withered, the immortal path disappeared, and that barrier shattered with a deafening roar.
A drop of blood fell from the heavens and landed on Tai Xuan's body.
Tai Xuan, who had one foot in the ranks of Quasi-Immortal Emperor, didn't even have time to react. This supreme expert was directly corroded, and even his Dao Fruit was gradually dissolved.
Tai Xuan weakly slashed a sword light into the depths of darkness. The sword light disappeared into the darkness, and soon everything vanished into chaos.
"I bore the mandate of heaven, intending to end this dark chaos, yet I perished on a single drop of blood. How laughable, how laughable..."
Endless desolation and grief have permeated the ages, leaving only the dazzling swords stained with endless blood floating in the starry sky.
Looking at that familiar sword, everyone knew it was the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
Known as the God of Heaven, he originally intended to annihilate all darkness and turmoil, but Tai Xuan was powerless to do so.
"The natal sword of a supreme immortal king. If one could comprehend the path of a supreme immortal king within it, that would be an immense fortune!" an ancient true immortal hidden among the crowd murmured, his eyes gleaming. If one could obtain this immortal sword and glimpse even a corner of it, that would be an unparalleled opportunity.
This was his first time encountering a Celestial King artifact.
"Ha ha ha ha"
"It truly is an ominous object, but it has a connection with me!"
The Three Burials Immortal King suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes gleaming as if he could see through the long river of time and witness that scene filled with malevolent energy...
