Chapter 631: Chapter 624 World-Subduing Floating Mountain Aspect
Heaven and earth were in a tumultuous state, with fierce winds and swirling sand mingled with shattered bones rampaging across the landscape, as if nature itself was in a furious rage, punishing those who dared to offend it.
Tens of thousands of Great Cultivators from various Dao Courts were arrayed in a formation, spanning over tens of thousands of miles. Their immense mana converged into a giant azure formation, its light piercing the sky. Within the light, silhouettes of azure fish could be seen fleeting across, and within the formation, azure winds formed streams converging upon seven Great Cultivators.
These seven Great Cultivators were all Profound Yuan Free Immortals, with cultivation levels that reached the heavens and penetrated the earth. Their mana made it difficult for the tens of thousands of Great Cultivators maintaining the formation, almost all of whom were trembling.
The seven Profound Yuan Free Immortals were jointly attacking a colossal figure that was a hundred zhang tall. No matter how they attacked, they could not shake this colossal figure.
This figure, with its upper body bare, resembled most of the evil demons of the Innate Human Race. It had disheveled hair and held a dark long saber in its hand. Its body was surrounded by a bloody aura, which blocked all spells and divine skills from all directions.
Despite the divine skills employed by the Dao Court’s Profound Yuan Free Immortals, they simply couldn’t penetrate the bloody aura surrounding him.
He had his eyes closed, seemingly still in slumber, unaffected by the attacks around him.
Meanwhile, more Cultivators were continuously arriving from distant places, joining the encirclement.
Those from the Daoist Field of the Beginningless had also arrived.
An Shengtian widened his eyes and swallowed nervously, asking, “What realm is that guy in?”
Every Cultivator aligned in the Dao Court’s formation seemed profoundly inscrutable to him, not to mention those seven Great Cultivators within the formation.
So many powerful beings gathered yet unable to shake an evil demon of the Innate Human Race?
“Perhaps resolving him could end the calamities brought by the Innate Human Race.”
Lv Xian mused solemnly, the stronger the opponent, the more excited he became.
If the Dao Court could resolve the Innate Human Race, how would they have a chance to showcase their prowess?
Suddenly!
A tremendous presence emanated from behind those of the Daoist Field of the Beginningless, startling them and causing them to turn their heads.
Not just them, but the other Cultivators who were fighting also turned to look, only to see a rainbow light speeding towards them like a rushing sun.
In a flash, the rainbow light soared over the heads of those from the Daoist Field of the Beginningless and directly entered the formation, which offered no resistance to it.
The rainbow light halted, its brilliance dissipated, and a Daoist in white robes appeared. He had the youthful appearance of an elder and held a horsetail whisk. His long eyebrows and beard emphasized his transcendent aura.
He looked at the hundred-zhang-tall figure and said, “Elder Zhu, long time no see.”
Indeed, he was the Master of the Dao Court, Yuan Songzi.
Seeing Yuan Songzi appear, the Great Cultivators on the side of the Dao Court all breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
The Dao Court, as an alliance-like sect, had managed to gather various sects together and establish a new sect. The leader of such an influential lineage surely possessed extraordinary capabilities.
The Great Cultivators present were all high-ranking members of the Dao Court and had witnessed Yuan Songzi’s capabilities to some extent. In their hearts, Yuan Songzi was the strongest being. As long as he was present, all difficulties would be resolved.
The hundred-zhang-tall figure then opened his eyes. He looked at Yuan Songzi, his fierce face showing no change in expression, and said, “You’re called Yuan Songzi, right? It indeed hasn’t been easy for you to come to this Great Thousand World and to possess such immense fortunes of heaven and earth.”
Yuan Songzi smiled and replied, “It has indeed been eons and the world has transformed tremendously since we last parted. Being able to meet in this Great World is also destiny, but I wonder, elder, how did you come to find yourself in such a state?”
Hearing Yuan Songzi knew the evil demon of the Innate Human Race, the Cultivators of the Dao Court looked at each other in bewilderment. They did not take the matter lightly and continued maintaining the formation.
Those from the Daoist Field of the Beginningless were also curious. Led by Jiang Shi, they flew towards the back of the hundred-zhang-tall figure.
“Offending beings one should not provoke leads to such consequences, yet you still have a slim chance of survival. You should leave quickly.”
The being referred to as Elder Zhu responded, his tone indifferent but not forceful.
Yuan Songzi said helplessly, “I am already the Sect Leader of a sect, bearing the lives of all living beings in the world. How can I flee? From what the elder suggests, it seems you too are compelled against your will. In that case, I can only apologize as I must offend.”
As his voice faded, he raised his left hand and gently swung it, causing a majestic green mountain to rise up behind him, swiftly growing flowers, grass, and trees. These trees quickly took root and sprouted, growing enormously large as if a Divine Army stood upon the mountain.
The green mountain surged into the clouds at an incredible speed, expanding in bulk in less than two breaths of time, filling the space within the Formation and leaving the Cultivators outside staring in astonishment.
Even for those from the Dao Court, it was the first time most had seen such a mountain.
As soon as the mountain appeared, Elder Zhu’s oppressive presence was immediately weakened.
“Is that a Divine Skill or a Magical Treasure?”
“Such terrifying suppressive force, even though separated by the Formation, I feel my mana being restrained.”
“The Master of the Dao Court is said to be the greatest Great Cultivator of our time, possessing the finest treasures and Divine Skills of anyone. It seems that the rumors are not unfounded.”
“Indeed, not to mention our master, he truly deserves to be called the best of our era.”
“This must be some kind of Power of the Great Dao…”
The inhabitants of the Beginningless were amazed by Yuan Songzi’s power.
Facing the Divine Skill displayed by Yuan Songzi, Elder Zhu’s eyes flashed with admiration and he exclaimed, “I had not expected you to refine the World-Subduing Floating Mountain Aspect to such a degree. Giving you this legacy was not a waste, but alas, you have not stepped into the Realm of Luotian and in my presence, you are still but an ant.”
As his words fell, his expression turned fierce. He suddenly raised his long knife and in a flash of the blade light.
Boom—
The Dao Court’s grand Formation was instantly shattered, a terrifying shockwave flinging everyone, including the seven Profound Yuan Free Immortals who had previously surrounded Elder Zhu.
During their backward flight, half of the Great Cultivators from the Dao Court side were annihilated.
The people from Beginningless, thanks to the protection of their Dao Treasure, managed to survive, but were completely disoriented, staring unbelievingly at Elder Zhu.
Standing in front of the World-Subduing Floating Mountain Aspect, Yuan Songzi furrowed his brows as he raised his hand to block the knife energy, with the giant green mountain behind him trembling as if it were about to shatter.
Waves of shock surged within Yuan Songzi’s heart.
Heaven-Encompassing Free Immortal!
He had not expected Elder Zhu to have reached such a realm; he remembered that when they had first met, Elder Zhu had lamented that he could not surpass the Profound Yuan Realm in this lifetime.
In an instant, many terrifying possibilities flashed through Yuan Songzi’s mind considering Elder Zhu’s current state.
“To eradicate all of you, and to cut in half the Destiny of the Celestial Spirit Great World, Yuan Songzi, blame only your fate that your cultivation level cannot see through the consequences behind this!”
Elder Zhu’s voice sounded again, Yuan Songzi’s expression changed drastically as an unimaginable terrifying power assaulted him, leaving him unable to resist.
Boom—
Yuan Songzi’s robes shattered, resembling a burst of blood flowers, as he fell into the giant green mountain, which immediately broke apart.
The blade energy swept across the land, cutting through the World-Subduing Floating Mountain Aspect, severing the earth, and reaching to the very edge of the heavens, seemingly poised to split the whole world in two.
Although the inhabitants of Beginningless were not directly in the path of the blade energy, they were still blown towards the horizon by the aftershocks, unable to defend themselves; their Dao Treasure could only protect their lives.
With this slash, outside the world, in reality, all living beings looked up to see a magnificent blood-red rainbow in the Celestial Vault, splitting the sky into two.
Even Shen Zhen at the Daoist Field of the Beginningless saw it.
Sitting in front of the Artifact Refining Cauldron, Shen Zhen turned to glance at Gu An not far away, reclining on a chair reading a book, and asked, “With such commotion, aren’t you planning to take action?”
She could feel the oppressive force from Elder Zhu, which, despite the great distance, filled her with terror.
Such a being was beyond any worldly power to confront!
