…
The swordsman had his back to her, his hair as white as snow, his exact age could not be seen, his figure was as tall as a lone peak, his clothes seemed to flutter naturally in the windless environment, carrying a sense of solitude and isolation.
The most eye-catching thing is that next to him, there is a simple and ancient long sword floating.
The sword is long and narrow, gray in color, as if it has been corroded by time. It has not been unsheathed, but it naturally exudes an aura of annihilation that cuts off everything and ends all things.
The aura was so pure and overbearing that it made Master Wang Ci understand almost instantly why this "immortal world" was so dead silent - the sword itself, or the sword intent of the swordsman, was the root of this nothingness!
"Who are you, fellow Taoist? Is this... the fairyland?"
Master 냫慈놅's question echoed solemnly in the dead silence.
The back of the white-clad swordsman remained motionless.
He didn't turn around.
A cold, straight sound, like the friction of ten thousand year old black ice, was imprinted directly into her soul without any emotion.
"The fairyland? Oh, there is no fairyland."
"As for who I am, you can call me the Keeper of Silence? The Sword Bearer? The Executioner? It's up to you."
냫 Ci Zhenren 뀞 is awe-inspiring. This voice... has an indescribable sense of familiarity, yet it is so cold and completely unfamiliar.
The swordsman turned around slowly.
The moment he saw that face clearly, Master Ci was struck by lightning, and his Dao was rippled violently in a rare way!
That face... was exactly the same as the free and easy, even a little wretched figure in her memory - Chen Jianzun!
Scenes from Yueying Sect’s life echoed in Master Ci’s mind.
However, the face in front of him did not have Chen Jianzun's unique temperament.
There is only one kind of eternal and unchanging, extremely cold and cruel, like the broken swords in the sword tomb. His eyes were as empty as an abyss of eternity, without sadness or joy, anger or resentment, only pure, lifeless scrutiny, as if he was observing a lifeless object.
“Chen, Chen Jianzun?” Zhenren Ci’s voice trembled with disbelief, but was instantly frozen by those abyss-like eyes.
"Chen Jianzun? Chen Huaian." The swordsman confirmed the name in a cold tone, but there was no connection between the words. "You know Chen Jianzun and I have some relationship. I am the cruel and ruthless corpse that was peeled off when Chen Huaian killed the three corpses to prove his Tao. It is also the 'evil corpse' in your mouth."
Three corpses? Evil corpse? !
Master 냫Ci's pupils suddenly shrank!
Killing the three corpses is the easiest way to achieve immortality.
Chen Huaian...he actually left his "corpse" here? !
Then, who is Chen Huaian from Cang Yun Realm?
Master 냫 Ci just felt his mind was a little confused.
"Then why do you..."
"He is too emotional and too soft to make the necessary decision." The evil corpse's voice was flat, as if stating a fact, "I was left behind to inherit his most core obsession - to protect the Cang Yun Realm. For this goal, I can do anything... necessary." He emphasized the word "necessary".
“Guard?” Zhenren 냫 Ci looked at the dead silence in the void, his voice full of doubt.
"Yes." The evil corpse looked around indifferently, "The Immortal Emperor, Dao Ancestor, God Sovereign...all the people who ascended here are dead. Their immortal power and Dao Fruits were drained and refined by me, and turned into pure energy."
boom! Master 냫 Ci only felt a chill rushing straight to his head!
The way to ascension leads to the slaughterhouse of the "evil corpses" of old friends? !
"Why do you do this?!" 냫慈真놅's voice suddenly rose.
The pale golden immortal light of merit and virtue gushed out instinctively around his body, forming a protective shield to resist the oppressive feeling brought by the swordsman's deadly sword intent.
"For the Cang Yun Realm." The evil corpse answered simply and directly, without a trace of excuse, "In the Cang Yun Realm, the spiritual veins are exhausted, the source is exhausted, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is like a candle in the wind, and it is difficult for cultivators to break through the realm. This is the destiny of heaven and the fate of every world!"
His voice was calm as he continued, "The Cang Yun Realm has run out of energy and is about to collapse. The only way to survive is to seize the power of another world with abundant spiritual energy, forcibly merge it into the Cang Yun Realm, and rebuild the foundation of heaven and earth!"
Forcefully... merge with other realms? !
The world here is definitely not the so-called 'world' that can be condensed by Dongxu cultivators.
That world is not even a small world. The world that the white-clothed swordsman is talking about must be a large world of the same level as the Cang Yun World.
"I have already determined the other world to be merged. That world is called Earth Star! Its spiritual energy is just born, and in the future it will be as full as the sea, and its origin will be as solid as a mountain. The laws of heaven and earth are in line with the innate Dao traces of the Cangyun Realm." A crazy smile appeared on the evil corpse's cold face. "The merger is to defy fate and change destiny. It requires unimaginable power as a trigger to pry the origins of the two worlds."
He pointed his thin finger at a point deep in the void:
"The source of this power is the 'Eternal Tribulation Return to the Origin Core' refined from the life-long cultivation and origin of those who have ascended in the past!
Their souls returned to silence, and their true cultivation returned to this place, turning into an anchor pulling the Cangyun Realm and the Earth Star! ”
Following his pointing, Zhenren Wangci concentrated his consciousness and "saw" surprisingly - in that lonely place, it was not absolutely empty, but a swirling vortex of chaos was suspended!
It seemed to be twisted from extremely compressed star dust, broken immortal bone foundation, and boiling immortal essence.
It rotated silently, emitting a terrifying wave that was enough to devour everything, like a chaotic star on the verge of exploding.
It also looks like an ominous tomb where countless immortals and gods are buried!
That is the "core of all calamities returning to their origin".
"In order to seize the merged planet...you slaughtered all the Ascension Dao?"
The voice of Master Ci was filled with bone-chilling chill and sorrow.
Even though she had cut off the past, she still felt extremely absurd at this moment.
Who would have thought that ascension was such a scam.
No wonder the immortals who were able to contact the lower world have disappeared one by one in the past few years.
"The Dao is ruthless, and survival is the most important thing." The evil corpse said in a decisive voice, "Sacrifice the immortal body here in exchange for the survival of billions of lives in the Cang Yun Realm, and reshape the origin of heaven and earth. This is the only way to protect the survival of the Cang Yun Realm. The original body, Chen Huaian, is trapped by the sins of love and is indecisive, so I will carry out this destiny to kill."
He attributed the endless killing to the cold "fate".
Master 냫Ci quietly pondered the evil corpse's words.
From the perspective of justice, sacrificing the small self for the greater self is completely correct.
Slaughtering all the immortals and gods in the sky to seek a glimmer of hope for the dying Cangyun Realm, this is great love.
She watched the decline of the Cangyun Realm.
But she always felt that there was more to the evil corpse than just that.
He seemed to be hiding something.
But she couldn't see anything from those indifferent eyes that were as cold as the abyss.
"So, now it's my turn to die for justice?"
"You have two paths to take."
The swordsman in white raised a finger: "First, kill me, avenge those dead immortals, and take my place. But I have already reached the realm of no power, close to being a Tao. You are nothing but an ant to me."
He raised his second finger: "Help me drive the Chaos Core, I will guide the fusion of the two worlds. You have great merit and have ascended to immortality. You have a golden body of merit, which can greatly increase the causal force between the two worlds. The stronger the causal force, the faster the fusion of the two worlds."
"One thought of life, one thought of death, is it revenge, or is it to contribute one's own strength to the survival of the Cang Yun Realm..."
"Choose!"
