Chapter 2397 - 2364: A Future-defining Sword Described by the Destruction Dao

"Hahaha!"

"Boy, weren’t you telling me about ten moves?"

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor laughed heartily, mounted the Qilin and shot the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor like a ball, sending him blasting back millions of light-years without mercy, mocking him ruthlessly.

He appeared majestic and formidable, incredibly fierce.

If one overlooks his body drenched in blood, the wound that nearly cut him in half.

And also the Qilin Ancient Emperor beneath him, whose wounds were even more terrifying—a thick Sword-light directly pierced through the Qilin’s chest, creating a front-to-back penetrative wound with carbonized bones and organs clearly visible inside.

Yet, the Immortal Flame burned upon these two Ancient Emperors, with the flesh near their wounds twisting and regenerating, their bodies unbelievably quick in recovery!

Opposite the two Ancient Emperors, the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor rolled across the starry sky like a ball, tearing space into a straight fissure.

Jiang Ding anchored himself with his sword and stood up.

His posture after being shot was very pathetic, yet his green clothes were intact, without a scratch on his body—all attacks either dodged or deflected, leaving no mark upon him.

This is the traditional battle method of Sword Cultivators.

The bodies of Sword Cultivators are fragile, far less robust compared to those of Body Cultivators—if truly hit, they cannot leap around like Ji Yan Ancient Emperor and Qilin Ancient Emperor but would surely suffer grave injuries or fall.

Yet this does not mean Sword Cultivators are easy to kill; one must truly hit them, which is very challenging.

"The junior was short-sighted. Ji Yan, the senior’s teachings are deserving."

"The ten-move agreement truly is a joke."

Jiang Ding said embarrassedly.

This is a lesson.

In this Emperor-level battlefield, his ability to calculate was greatly reduced, with the accuracy significantly lowered.

He had no idea that the Dao Heart of the Qilin Ancient Emperor was so firm, and that Ji Yan Ancient Emperor was adept at cooperating with his mount to the point of developing a high-level Immortal Path synergy skill, manifesting a power far beyond simply one plus one equaling two.

Moreover, the Qilin Ancient Emperor’s path to becoming was indeed fraught with hardships, as evidenced not only by his solid Dao Heart which allowed him to willingly serve as a temporary mount but also by his adeptness!

This really is unbelievable!

In these millions of years, as he meditated at the Supreme Great Sun Celestial Pivot, his gaze surveying the Endless Universe Starry Sky, with the Eyes of Destruction and Immortality under which all beings’ futures, destinies, and cause and effect were as visible as the lines on a palm, never before making an error, he found himself becoming arrogant to this point—a profound lesson indeed.

"Hahaha!"

"This child can be taught!"

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor, having gained the upper hand, became wild with arrogance, his aura soaring like a whirlwind.

In merely an instant, the miserable wounds on him and the Qilin suddenly healed as if without any cost, terrifyingly so.

The Heavenly Fire Dao, among the Endless Universe Starry Sky, saw the Phoenix Immortal Clan walk this path most profoundly, with their most famous Immortal Techniques being the Phoenix Nirvana, possessing the Immortal Flame and, even if slain by enemies, it would revive, enhancing strength with each slaying—a heaven-defying Immortal Technique.

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor’s Immortal Flame exhibited similar traits to the Phoenix Immortal Clan’s technique!

"Kill!"

"Treading Heaven · Breaking Ten Thousand Celestial Barracks!"

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor roared, commanding a billion Red Armor Divine Army, charging towards the sky with spear held high.

The Ancient Emperor mounted the Qilin, commanding his billion Heavenly Army, trampling the starry sky, as Ji Yan Ancient Emperor’s lifetime cultivation paths converged on the spear tip as a single faint fiery thread, containing terrifyingly odd power, akin to the first thread of Innate Flame when Chaos Heaven and Earth opened, and also reminiscent of the first thread of Human Dao flame kindled by the Suirenshi Clan.

An explosive-like icy danger erupted within Jiang Ding’s heart.

"Roar!"

The Qilin beneath Ji Yan Ancient Emperor bellowed.

The Power Extreme Path also reached its peak, with gravity and force infinitely concentrated on the Red Flame Divine Spear, transforming into the spear shaft, which violently absorbed the Power of Heaven and Earth, the essence of sun and moon, darkening the skies, overshadowing the sun and moon, with paths chaotically mixing—all power amalgamating with the fiery thread on Ji Yan Ancient Emperor’s spear tip, drastically amplifying this world-destroying strike.

"Kill!"

"Kill kill kill!"

At this moment, Ji Yan Ancient Emperor and Qilin Ancient Emperor roared fiercely, filled with murderous intent.

At this moment, the two shared a sense of consummate unity, their paths made progress, as if the skies were more transparent.

A thought appeared in both Ancient Emperors’ minds.

If this could grant them immortality, if it could cause the Qilin and Human Race to prosper, then so be it?

The power of both Ancient Emperors surged to its peak!

The world was filled with slaughter, chaos darkened without light, while only the green-clothed youth maintained the Dharma-Ending Age’s twilight radiance, preserving a light within the darkness.

"A remarkable cleverness."

"As expected of an Ancient Emperor, to achieve a breakthrough in such a short time after awakening from this deep slumber, truly a talent of the heavens."

Jiang Ding stood at the center of endless cold killing intent, an intent potent enough to freeze the universe, the heavens and earth, and all beings, yet it made him feel incredibly comfortable, at ease, as if cradled in a mother’s arms, with a tranquil satisfaction.

"Unfortunately,"

"Your foundations are too weak; your exploration of the Immortal Path in your respective eras was not deep enough. Your foundation is merely such and such; how does a breakthrough in battle matter?"

Jiang Ding murmured to himself.

Clang!

In the melodious sound of the sword, the Taiqing Flying Sword and the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor completed a reformation of mana and Sword Intent.

The Great Sun possesses radiation, has the power of mutation, and the Power of Destruction of the Law born from the Great Sun is even more so — not to mention that tens of thousands of years ago, the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path once completely devoured the Ten Thousand Laws and Numbers Immortal Dao!

The Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor is powerful not for his talent or wit; he was an emperor who rose from weakness to strength. He was not naturally an Immortal Body, nor a Chaos Immortal Body elite, but an emperor who constantly iterated and evolved through continuous learning and research!

The Ten Thousand Laws and Numbers Immortal Dao was completely deciphered by him, and it was integrated into the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path.

Compared to the past, the power of mutation in the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path has increased by a hundredfold!

The many battles and clashes of tens and hundreds of moves were not just mere consumption but also a data collection of the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path against the Power Extreme Path and the Heavenly Fire Dao.

Now, the first stage of the task has been completed; the mana and Sword Intent of the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Path were restructured into a specific configuration.

In an instant, both the Qilin Ancient Emperor and Ji Yan Ancient Emperor fixed their gaze on the green-clothed youth.

Though the person seemed unchanged, with mana, Immortal Body strength, and Life Flying Sword intensity all unchanged, yet a sense of danger far exceeding the previous emerged suddenly, as if they were facing their predestined nemesis.

"Kill!"

The two Ancient Emperors roared furiously, advancing without retreat.

"Come!"

"Heavenly Fire and Qilin Immortal Body, do you truly believe you are eternally immortal?"

Jiang Ding also revealed a fierce and cold growl.

Clang!

The Taiqing Flying Sword, which completed a qualitative transformation through reformation, escaped into time, slashing towards the wild charge of the two Ancient Emperors.

That slash, hazy, as if right before the eyes, or perhaps in the past, or in the future.

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor and Qilin Ancient Emperor inadvertently beheld a strange scene, three distinct Sword-lights appeared before their eyes, each revealing completely different images.

The first image occurred half a month ago, where the green-clothed youth slashed a sword at the yet-to-merge Qilin Ancient Emperor.

The second image was the present moment, as both Ancient Emperors charged fiercely, where the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor cleaved the heavens open, splitting the Cosmic Starry Sky into yin and yang of billions of light-years.

The third image showed the future third year, as the green-clothed youth’s sword had sliced, nearly severing Ji Yan Ancient Emperor’s torso, breaking the Qilin Ancient Emperor’s long horn, and forcefully cleaving through a pillar-like scaled leg, causing long horn and leg to fall amidst the starry sky, blood flowing yet unable to heal.

This is the future!

Both Ancient Emperors could distinctly feel the Destruction Dao furiously stirring the heavens and affecting time!

If this process cannot be interrupted, this is the future!

"Die!"

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor and Qilin Ancient Emperor were driven to madness.

The Tribulation Starfire spear lights of the Heavenly Fire Dao and Power Extreme Path, with terrifying power, locked onto cause and effect, time, and space, with a destructive frenzy aimed at the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor’s head, seeking to explode the arrogant emperor’s head and shatter his Immortal Body and Divine Soul, obliterating any possibility of living a second life!

Clink!

Within the past, future, and present moment across time, the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor’s sword intersected with the long spears of the two Ancient Emperors, followed by a terrifying explosion of destruction, shattering countless stars and causing the Time River to roil uncontrollably.

No one knows how long passed.

"Cough!"

Amidst the turbulent spatial chaos, Qilin Ancient Emperor and Ji Yan Ancient Emperor retreated violently while spitting blood, their expressions awash with terror.

Look at their injuries,

Ji Yan Ancient Emperor nearly bisected!

Qilin Ancient Emperor’s scaled leg and long horn severed!

At their injuries, existed special mutant force, forcibly blocking the restoration of the Heavenly Fire Dao and Qilin Immortal Body with aggressive power, rendering recovery impossible, instantly plunging into severe trauma!

All of it, identical to that future slash!
