Chapter 386: Calamity
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Yuan had been curious before. In the history of the Upper Realm, there had been many Beast of Antiquity.
It was rumored that the strength of these Beast of Antiquity was not weaker than that of immortals.
But now, all these Beast had disappeared without a trace.
Only a small portion of the Beast of Antiquity still existed.
However, even this portion of the Beast of Antiquity had lost the unparalleled power of their ancestors.
What surprised Lu Yuan even more was that these Beast of Antiquity seemed to have disappeared overnight.
In the Speed Star Sword Domain library, Lu Yuan tried to investigate this missing part of history.
However, the results of the investigation disappointed him.
Whether it was the Beast of Antiquity or the legendary immortals.
In the ancient books of the Upper Realm, it seemed to have only become a legend. Very few specific records were passed down.
Lu Yuan did not know what kind of secret this contained.
And the Formless Myriad Swords seemed to be able to give Lu Yuan a part of the answer.
These Beasts of Antiquity that were suppressed by the Formless Myriad Swords had become a part of the Formless Myriad Swords.
After being suppressed for a long time, coupled with time, they had long lost their sense of self.
They had become totem-like existence and remained within the Formless Myriad Swords.
In a sense, these totems were not much different from the way of the heavens of Heaven and Earth.
The power of these totems was even more terrifying than the normal way of the heavens of Heaven and Earth.
This was because they were all peerless vicious beasts that had truly existed.
As long as the Formless Myriad Swords wanted to, it could activate the characteristics of one of the Beast of Antiquity at any time, giving itself a special attribute.
This was also the reason why the Formless Myriad Swords had the attribute of being formless.
Its attributes were not fixed but changed according to the user’s mood.
It could be said that this was the ultimate weapon that could be used by any cultivator.
Only the legendary true Immortals could forge such an immortal sword.
After all, it was not difficult to forge the Formless Myriad Swords, but it was difficult to suppress so many Beasts of Antiquity.
If one was not immortal, they would not have such a terrifying level of cultivation to do this.
In the end, the achievements of an immortal sword depended on who was using it.
Even an ordinary branch in the hands of a real immortal was not something that an ordinary magic item could compare to.
Therefore, many powerful magic items would choose their masters.
It could be considered a mutually beneficial relationship.
Lu Yuan’s way of sword cultivation and talent had already obtained the recognition of the Formless Myriad Swords.
If it were someone else, even a reincarnated immortal like Xiang Yang, they would not be able to pull out the Formless Myriad Swords buried in the Myriad Swords Mountain.
As all the swords were drawn out, Lu Yuan also began to accept the final test of the Formless Myriad Swords.
This test was to ask the heart.
In Lu Yuan’s divine soul, a huge mountain had appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
On this mountain peak, there were 99 Beasts of Antiquity.
Each of these Beast of Antiquity was extremely powerful.
However, what was interesting was that these Beast of Antiquity that were extremely terrifying to outsiders were now bowing down to Lu Yuan.
They looked at the Transcendent Dharma Idol on Lu Yuan’s back as if they were looking at a terrifying existence.
He didn’t dare to release the brutal aura on his body.
This was because there were already more than ten corpses of the Beast of Antiquity lying in front of the Transcendent Dharma Idol.
These Beasts of Antiquity didn’t have many wounds on their bodies. Almost all of them only had one fatal wound.
It was as if they had been killed by a sword.
The four Ancient Immortal Swords floating behind the Transcendent Dharma Idol were also emitting terrifying sword intent.
The Beast of Antiquity that were killed were the result of the Lu Yuan Celestial Eradication Sword Array.
It was precisely because of Lu Yuan’s strength that these Beast of Antiquity were intimidated.
In the divine soul, both cultivators and the Beast of Antiquity relied on their understanding of the laws and the cultivation of their divine souls.
And these two points were exactly the advantages of Lu Yuan.
Although Lu Yuan’s current cultivation was only at the Apotheosis Stage, his divine soul was not an ordinary divine soul.
It was comparable to the divine soul of an Ethereal Stage cultivator.
Moreover, his divine soul was very special. Not to mention the Ethereal Stage, even the Dao Integration Stage above the Ethereal Stage might not be able to hurt his divine soul.
In addition, Lu Yuan also had the Celestial Eradication Sword Array and the Transcendent Dharma Idol.
In Lu Yuan’s divine soul, these Beast of Antiquity were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
After taming these Beast of Antiquity, they seemed to have made a decision together.
They turned into all kinds of lights and returned to the mountain in his divine soul.
Not long after, this mountain peak also returned to the appearance of the fire rod that the Formless Myriad Swords had used at the beginning.
Outside his divine soul, Lu Yuan opened his eyes and looked at the black cudgel in his hand.
If one didn’t experience it personally, it would be hard to believe that such a weapon was the mysterious number one immortal sword of the Myriad Sword Mountain.
However, this ordinary appearance of the Formless Myriad Swords was also very much in line with Lu Yuan’s low-key character.
After subduing the Formless Myriad Swords, Lu Yuan more or less knew some secrets about the disappearance of the Beast of Antiquity.
This part of the secret was not directly transmitted to him by the Formless Myriad Swords.
Instead, it was a part of the image left behind by the immortal’s will in the Formless Myriad Swords.
In that picture, the entire sky of the Upper Realm was shrouded in chaos and darkness.
Countless cultivators and the Beast of Antiquity were fighting against the endless darkness.
It was an indescribable scene.
A large number of cultivators and the Beast of Antiquity that Lu Yuan thought were very powerful flew through the air like moths to a flame.
The owner of the Formless Myriad Swords was one of these people.
Unfortunately, Lu Yuan only saw the scene of the owner of the Formless Myriad Swords leaving the Formless Myriad Swords on the Myriad Sword Mountain.
After that, Lu Yuan could no longer see the scene of him fighting against the boundless darkness.
However, regarding that terrifying Darkness Tide, two words appeared in Lu Yuan’s mind…Catastrophe.
Why did the calamity appear? Was the calamity the only one?
Lu Yuan wasn’t sure.
However, Lu Yuan, who had lived two lives, could not help but think of the description of the calamity he knew in his previous life.
Among them, the one that left the deepest impression on Lu Yuan was none other than the Primordial Calamity.
If the so-called calamity in this life was an existence comparable to the Primordial Calamity.
Lu Yuan felt that he was in trouble.
This was because, in his previous life, there were no cultivators who became immortals.
Even immortals who had already become immortals and even powerful existences like Sect Master Tongtian could die in the tribulation.
Lu Yuan didn’t think that he could be compared to Sect Master Tongtian.
Not to mention Sect Master Tongtian, even Lu Yuan, the former master of the Formless Myriad Swords, felt that there was a huge gap between him and the other party.
This… It was the terror of the calamity..
