The man stood seven feet tall.
Upright and dignified, a heroic figure.
Swords, typically three feet long, are slender and straight, considered most suitable.
The Primordial Celestial Sword was originally three feet and three inches long. After devouring the broken half-celestial blade and merging with the Nine-Colored Celestial Gold, it continued to lengthen.
Once fully drawn.
It measured a full five feet in length.
Some shorter individuals wouldn’t even reach the height of this sword!
The Daoist of the Other Shore was utterly astonished, filled with excitement as he examined the celestial sword.
The sword was five feet long, three fingers wide, with a straight spine and eight mirror-like edges. The hilt was a chaotic color, while the blade resembled nine-colored glass.
It had transcended physical form, becoming a path of the sword itself. Held in hand, it was as light as a feather, yet capable of infinite slaughter. Within it lay a vast world of sword dao, immense and capable of crushing all things.
Upon closer inspection.
The sword bore fifty-nine apertures.
Fifty apertures qualify as a celestial weapon.
The Solar Virtue Celestial Bow has fifty-five apertures.
The further one goes, the more difficult it becomes to open new apertures, highlighting the terror of the Primordial.
The moment it was fully drawn, the entire Qian Yuan world trembled. Unmatched sword light swept across the cosmos, shaking all directions, eliciting gasps from countless powerful beings.
Moreover, the pressure spread to dozens of surrounding great worlds. Though it harmed no one, all weapons, treasures, spirit treasures, kingly artifacts, saintly artifacts, and even imperial artifacts buzzed and trembled, as if in fear or perhaps in welcome of the birth of the supreme weapon.
“A fine sword!”
The Daoist of the Other Shore was ecstatic:
“A weapon born for annihilation, the unparalleled and unique sword.”
“I believe that across all the heavens and the cosmos, you are the strongest weapon, the invincible sword!”
Instantly!
The world was in shock.
Staring in disbelief at the Primordial.
Their eyes filled with incredulity.
“No matter how strong the sword, it cannot save you.”
The Lord of Hell, inwardly shaken, exerted all his power to activate the Chain of Oblivion.
It was like summoning a black hole, piercing through the internal organs of the Daoist of the Other Shore, aiming to extinguish his life and end the battle.
“Too late!” The Daoist of the Other Shore swung the sword.
Clang!
A crisp sound.
The Primordial, once drawn, was unstoppable.
Even the Chain of Oblivion was cleanly severed.
“How is this possible? It was imbued with the power of the Heavenly Dao.”
The Lord of Hell was horrified, sensing a deadly threat, his spirit trembling uncontrollably.
“It’s time to end this!” The Daoist of the Other Shore, holding the Primordial Celestial Sword, resembled an ancient god of slaughter, invincible and unconquerable.
“This sword strike has been brewing for too long, I gift it to you!”
“One sword to break all laws!”
The moment he grasped the sword.
Qin Li attained enlightenment in the way of the sword.
The void in his heart was completely filled.
It was as if he held the Purple King Sword again, his first divine ability transforming into a celestial technique.
The sword descended, straightforward and unadorned, drawing a path of the sword that embodied the principle of simplicity in the Dao, presenting the ultimate in slaughter.
Thud!
The sword light entered the body.
The Lord of Hell exclaimed in surprise:
“Hahaha! It’s not so impressive after all…”
Crack!
Before he could finish.
The Chain of Oblivion completely disintegrated.
The body of the Supreme Being crumbled and exploded apart.
As the darkness dispersed, the Lord of Hell vanished, replaced by the thirty-three Yama Kings of Hell, trembling like a nest of quails:
“Run!”
“We’ve lost!”
“He can kill a Supreme Being with a single sword!”
“The sword is the first under the heavens, the man the strongest in the cosmos!”
The thirty-three Yama Kings of Hell were terrified, burning themselves to flee as fast as they could.
“You won’t escape!” The Daoist of the Other Shore’s gaze was sharp, instantly spotting the Vacuum Evil Buddha, his anger surging.
He had killed the Demon Buddha, slaughtered the Three Heroes, and caused the death of the Confucian Immortal. The hatred was too deep to dissolve, how could he let this one escape?
“Die!”
A single sword strike.
Too fast to defend against.
Moreover, a mere True Emperor, how could he defend?
“You…” By the time the Vacuum Evil Buddha realized what was happening.
The celestial sword had pierced his body, annihilating his organs, tearing his spirit, destroying everything.
“Hahaha! Qin Li, you can’t kill me, because I am anchored in the Nest of Oblivion. We will surely fight again.” The Vacuum Evil Buddha, knowing he could not survive, faced his end with boldness, even mocking as he self-destructed.
“Oh!”
The Daoist of the Other Shore smiled:
“You underestimate the power of one sword to break all laws.”
“Your method of anchoring your mark will also be destroyed.”
Qin Li originally had a technique to trace origins, now merged, its power even more ferocious, able to erase marks without the consciousness leaving the body.
“No!”
“Please no!”
“Qin Li, spare me…”
The Vacuum Evil Buddha was terrified, even begging for mercy.
But it was too late, the body of the Yama King disintegrated, and even the mark was erased.
In the world, there was no longer any trace of the Vacuum Evil Buddha, truly dead, beyond any possibility of return.
“You, who have harmed countless, now it’s a mercy for you.”
The Daoist of the Other Shore glanced aside.
The remaining Yama Kings of Hell shivered in fear.
They felt as if they had fallen into an icy hell, realizing that Qin Li was the true king of hell.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Two more sword strikes.
Clean and decisive, relentless in slaughter.
The Venomous Yama and the Skeletal Yama both fell.
Qin Li harbored deep hatred for these three, hence they were the first to be slain.
Boom boom boom boom boom…
The remaining thirty Yama Kings were completely petrified.
They had seen cruelty, but nothing like this, so they acted decisively.
All thoughts of destroying the heavens or toppling the four emperors were forgotten as they self-destructed on the spot, relying on their marks to be reborn in the Nest of Oblivion.
Suddenly, thirty dark flowers bloomed in the sky, creating a destructive force capable of sinking ten great worlds, as the self-destruction of thirty True Emperors was overwhelmingly powerful.
“Celestial Ship of the Heavenly Realm, suppress the cosmos.” The Daoist of the Other Shore urgently stabilized the surroundings.
Even so.
The explosion’s force spread through Qian Yuan.
Once a wasteland, Qian Yuan was now devoid of life.
After this explosion, even the soil vanished, the crust shattered, leaving only molten lava, and the thirty-two dragon veins beneath the earth were all severed.
“Such decisiveness!”
The Rebellious Saint Emperor exclaimed in admiration.
Facing the Master of the Lingtai, he remained effortlessly composed.
“I’ll help you subdue him completely!” The Daoist of the Other Shore freed his hands.
Two Supreme Beings, plus the Primordial Celestial Sword and the Celestial Ship of the Heavenly Realm, formed an overwhelmingly formidable force, closing in for the kill.
The Master of the Lingtai was visibly shaken: “It seems the defeat of hell is inevitable. I have no desire to be involved in your battles, I shall take my leave.”
Whoosh.
The Master of the Lingtai vanished.
Such is the way of the Supreme Being of the Divine Path, roaming the heavens freely, coming and going at will.
Her true form was actually the Lingtai Temple, allowing her to withdraw her spirit and exit the battlefield at any time, a feat other Supreme Beings could not achieve.
“I’m back!”
The Master of the Lingtai’s spirit returned.
Looking at the bustling small town of Qing Shi, she felt a warm sense of belonging.
“What a coincidence, we’re here too!” The Daoist of the Other Shore and the Rebellious Saint Emperor arrived.
The Master of the Lingtai turned pale, unable to suppress her fear: “How is this possible? You’re not a divine cultivator, how can you arrive instantly?”
“A secret!”
The two did not answer.
Instead, they attacked together, coordinating seamlessly.
“I’ll suppress the Master of the Lingtai, you go seal the Lingtai Temple!”
The Daoist of the Other Shore spat out the Primordial Celestial Sword, its light illuminating the fallen realm, astonishing all ghosts and deities.
Due to the uniqueness of “The Only Flaw,” Qin Li had always pondered how to carry items and family with him during instant movements, hence he devised a crude method: swallowing them and storing them in his belly.
“Good!”
The Rebellious Saint Emperor charged out.
His celestial weapon body was invincible.
Landing in the small town of Qing Shi, he caused a massive earthquake.
“Qin Li, I hope you won’t act recklessly.” The Earth Treasury trembled, pleading pitifully.
“Rest assured, we are all friends. I wouldn’t dare to kill, as you all still have great uses!” The Rebellious Saint Emperor unleashed his power.
The fifty worlds within him poured out boundless momentum, like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing the entire small town of Qing Shi, including the Lingtai Temple, sealing everything layer by layer. Even the Primordial fell into a deep slumber.
“Not good!”
The Master of the Lingtai panicked.
She struggled fiercely, trying to return her spirit to her body.
But the Daoist of the Other Shore was no pushover, his defenses were impenetrable.
Especially the Primordial Celestial Sword, an ultimate weapon of slaughter, even Supreme Beings dared not test its edge, they could only evade, or face annihilation.
“It’s over!”
The Rebellious Saint Emperor opened his mouth wide.
With a mighty inhale, he swallowed the small town of Qing Shi.
The fifty worlds within him exerted full force to suppress the Lingtai Temple.
“Not good!”
The Master of the Lingtai was horrified.
She had lost the source of her power.
Her delicate body weakened, stumbling, she fell forward.
The Daoist of the Other Shore reached out and caught the Master of the Lingtai.
However.
This time.
Qin Li showed no mercy for the fairer sex.
He unleashed celestial might, transforming it into seals to imprison the Master of the Lingtai.
“No…” The Master of the Lingtai was compressed layer by layer into a Supreme Soul Crystal, flowing with celestial prohibitions, from which came an angry voice:
“Qin Li, what exactly do you intend to do?”
The Daoist of the Other Shore remained silent.
He simply swallowed the Supreme Crystal.
And also ingested the Primordial Celestial Sword into his belly.
“Let’s go!”
“To Wugong Mountain.”
