Chapter 1661 - 222: Break Point 2

Chapter 1661: Chapter 222: Break Point 2

Countless people were all within this single strand of Divine Thought.

So this is Divine Travel?

The scroll once said, "When dead, one knows all is empty"... The taste of Divine Travel seems to be the taste of death.

At this moment.

Xie Xuanyi understood.

Everything he had guessed, everything he had anticipated, was all correct.

In this world there exists the life-span limit, the life-span Great Tribulation... As long as one dwells within the mortal dust, one is destined to be stained by Cause and Effect. Once a Strongest reaches the "limit," they will be expelled from this world; in a certain sense, Divine Travel is equivalent to death.

This is why.

Only Perfectionists who have truly ascended to the absolute summit can choose "Divine Travel" at will.

Because for the Strongest.

Divine Travel is a one-way journey from which there is fated to be no return.

Those who can return to the Flower Bud World after one dream of yellow millet, are only the "Sky Watchers" who briefly step into the River to Observe the Sky through special Magic Techniques, and an extremely small number of the fortunate.

Without question.

Back then, when he was at Yin God Great Perfection, he had used the "Forget Sorrows" Divine Skills to step into this place; he himself had been fortunate.

And now, revisiting an old place.

Xie Xuanyi’s Divine Thought was countless times stronger than in those days.

Even so.

He still could not see this vast River clearly.

Outside the Flower Bud World, countless strands of Cause and Effect had been derived, countless petals...

Fate is the most complex loom in this world.

No one knows.

How these billions of threads of fate, so intricately intertwined, will ultimately be woven into a story.

"Swish."

A wind-splitting sound suddenly rang by Xie Xuanyi’s ear.

He followed the sound and looked, and indeed saw that familiar figure.

Above this vast and mighty River of Destiny, countless Paper Snow swirled and surged over, condensing into the figure of the Paper Taoist. Lu Yuzhen stepped on a small boat condensed from Paper Snow, came to the side of Xie Xuanyi’s Golden Coffin, and without another word, directly thrust out a fist.

"Clang!"

Xie Xuanyi summoned his Flying Sword.

Metal clashed against metal, and a thunderous boom exploded within the River of Destiny.

The Golden Coffin and the Paper Boat were both pushed away by this violent shock force, but very soon they collided together once again.

Xie Xuanyi let out a soft laugh.

Just as expected.

In Lu Yuzhen’s eyes, compared to the "Qi Fortune of All Living Beings" in the Flower Bud World, he himself was more important.

"You really came."

Xie Xuanyi spoke.

"There aren’t many things I regret in this life."

Lu Yuzhen said coldly, "If I had another chance, I would never have allowed you to step into the River of Destiny."

"Even if we did it over, the ending would be the same."

Xie Xuanyi shook his head and said calmly, "You can’t stop me."

The coffin of the Red Pearl Cicada Country was born for Divine Travel.

From the moment he realized the importance of this coffin.

All of this.

Became impossible to halt.

"..."

Lu Yuzhen made no comment, merely kept throwing punches.

Every punch he struck contained dense Taoist Intent.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Flying Sword collided with his fists and feet, the Golden Coffin was battered and flung about again and again, yet what was truly terrifying was not these impacts, but the Taoist Intent Lu Yuzhen released...

With every punch thrown.

The River of Destiny erupted into sky-piercing columns of water.

And the remnant Taoist Intent "froze and solidified" those water pillars.

The Space-Time Dao Realm descended once more, and perhaps because they had entered the River of Destiny, Lu Yuzhen’s Daoist Brush Divine Skills had been enhanced. This time, the Space-Time Dao Realm was clearly much stronger than before; even Xie Xuanyi’s movements were subjected to a powerful "hindrance."

"...Hm?"

Xie Xuanyi sensed something strange.

Lu Yuzhen’s strength had inexplicably increased by a margin.

This margin was not enough to affect the final outcome, but having cultivated to this point, both had already reached the perfection within Perfection.

On what basis could Lu Yuzhen cause the power of his Dao Domain to grow once again?

After exchanging several dozen moves.

Xie Xuanyi fell into disadvantage.

The Golden Coffin’s movement speed began to slow.

Seeing this, Lu Yuzhen directly unleashed his entire Dao Domain, expanding its coverage to the extreme. This bastard actually meant to forcibly freeze the River of Destiny, to pin Xie Xuanyi in the mid-section of the River of Destiny.

Xie Xuanyi hurriedly summoned the Life and Death Dao Domain.

Originally, when these two top-tier Dao Domains collided, neither could do anything to the other.

At this moment, it was actually Xie Xuanyi’s "Life and Death" that was at a disadvantage!

Within the River of Destiny.

The Life and Death Dao Domain was clearly being suppressed!

"Didn’t you want to push yourself to the ultimate sublimation, to ascend the absolute summit?"

Xie Xuanyi frowned and said coldly, "Do you not dare retreat with me to a thousand years ago and fight a battle?"

Though his Dao Domain was suppressed.

Xie Xuanyi did not stop there.

He summoned the Swallowing Dao Scroll, and together with the Annihilation Sword Qi, forcibly blasted open a gap in the Space-Time Dao Realm—

Xie Xuanyi knew very well.

What he needed to do was simpler than Lu Yuzhen’s task.

Lu Yuzhen wanted to freeze the River of Destiny; he only needed to find a way to shatter this Dao Domain!

"Crack crack crack!"

Thus.

This River of Destiny—whose length could not be measured—was, in one instant, shrouded by Paper Snow and frozen into solid ice, and in the next instant, was cut to pieces by Sword Qi, erupting with crackling explosions.

In the end...

Lu Yuzhen failed.

He could not stop the reverse flow of the Golden Coffin, nor could he stop Xie Xuanyi’s Retrospect; he could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded, while he himself followed along, together reaching the "end" of the River of Destiny.

"Tsk."

Xie Xuanyi stood atop the Golden Coffin.

He looked into the distance.

This vast, boundless great river seemed to have been mercilessly severed by something, leaving only a pitch-black "Break Point"; Void Torrents and fragments of time drifted within this dark Break Point region. Even from an extremely great distance, one could still feel the vast, surging aura of Deathly Silence.

"So this is the Great Tribulation era of a thousand years ago?"

Xie Xuanyi sighed.

A thousand years ago, the Great Tribulation erupted.

The River of Destiny likewise broke, and thereafter the various Great Holy Lands fell one after another, and the world was split in two.
