Chapter 166: With My Words, Condense the Laws of Heaven and Earth
Only a breath of time passed, yet it felt as though a whole day had gone by. The crowd stared at the six fallen Yin Gods before them, still feeling as if they were in a dream.
Six Yin Gods, without any ability to resist, were easily slain.
That overwhelming force, rendering the Yin Gods incapable of fighting back.
Other than the Divine Domain, the woman in white couldn’t think of any other explanation.
Only a Great Sovereign could wield a Divine Domain.
But how had the Blood-Clad Sword God suddenly become a Great Sovereign?
The woman in white was deeply confused.
On the other hand, Da Zhi Zhenjun seemed to be pondering something.
Xu Tongchen, however, was unfazed.
What was this compared to the time when the sun fell? That had truly shocked him.
“Father is amazing!” Qi Jianjun clenched her little pink fist, full of pride, showing none of the usual arrogance of a Yin God.
Behind her, the people in the suona band looked on with fanatical eyes.
Qi Yuan reached out, and immediately seven or eight storage bags fell into his hand.
His divine sense swept through the storage bags, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
“Confiscated stolen goods.”
He was quite pleased.
This was truly a jackpot!
Inside those storage bags were six Heavenly-level techniques, with two of them being mid-grade Heavenly-level, each worth ten of the lower grades.
“Seeing how sensible you all are, I’ve decided to allow you to settle on the Moon Watching Continent and become a part of it.”
Qi Yuan looked at the corpses of the Yin Gods.
As he stared at them, the bodies turned into something akin to fertilizer, merging with the dust.
“‘Yin Gods’ are not heartless; they turn into spring mud to nourish flowers,” Qi Yuan couldn’t help but recite a line of poetry.
These Yin Gods were truly good people.
The Moon Watching Continent had been so barren that apart from the High Priest, not even a single Purple Mansion cultivator could emerge.
But now, with the addition of this fertilizer, it was a blessing for the Moon Watching Continent.
The woman in white watched this scene in silence for a long time.
At that moment, Qi Yuan closed his eyes, and the crowd looked at him, not daring to speak.
A breath later, he opened his eyes again: “There are still 13 million Molo clan troops left to deal with.”
The woman in white hurriedly said, “I will personally lead people to deal with the remaining Molo army.”
The strength of the Moon Watching Continent was incapable of facing the Molo army.
Only she, as a Yin God, could run around and kill, wiping out those millions of Molos.
“Why bother with such trouble?” Qi Yuan chuckled, “Since they dared to come to my home, they can all stay and become fertilizer.”
The woman in white was puzzled by his words.
The Blood-Clad Sword God was strong, at the level of a Great Sovereign, but to kill the Molo army without harming the Moon Watching Continent would be extremely difficult.
Unless, of course, one used brute force to kill them.
At that moment, Qi Yuan rose into the air again, his blood-red robe flapping in the wind.
The light of the sun and moon froze, concentrating on Qi Yuan.
A vast voice echoed at that instant.
“The myriad beings of the earth, all things in existence, are under my control.”
The ancient Tree trembled, snowflakes danced wildly.
Rivers flowed backward, and deserts roared.
At that moment, every living creature on the Moon Watching Continent couldn’t help but look toward Qi Yuan’s location.
Whether human, animal, or beast, their eyes were filled with fervor and reverence.
The vast voice spread across the entire Moon Watching Continent.
All the Molo troops looked up at the sky, their faces bewildered.
In the stronghold of the Canglan Realm on the Moon Watching Continent, Gu Xiaoyao, a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Heavenly Dao, looked up, eyes confused: “What is this?”
The Nascent Soul cultivators were also puzzled, having no idea what was happening.
“This is... the voice of the Blood-Clad Sword God!” a prodigy gritted his teeth, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
They didn’t know what was about to happen, but they could sense that something terrifying was coming.
At this moment, the woman in white widened her eyes, looking at Qi Yuan in confusion.
She could clearly see that the world’s origin was trembling, active.
How could the Blood-Clad Sword God make the world’s origin boil?
This was something even a Great Sovereign couldn’t do.
The vast voice resounded once more.
“With my words, condense the laws of heaven and earth!”
“Thunder God and Lightning Mother, Five Sacred Mountains and Rivers, the creation of Heaven and Earth, all heed my command!”
“Slay the Molo army!”
As the vast voice rang out, the entire Moon Watching Continent turned into a divine prison.
The sky darkened, the sun and moon lost their light, and the countless stars were obscured by dark clouds.
Within the black clouds, thunder rumbled as if a colossal beast was roaring, and ferocious deities were howling.
In the clouds, two innate gods appeared, formed by the will of the Heavenly Dao.
“Thunder God receives the order!”
“Lightning Mother receives the order!”
In the mountains and rivers, booming sounds echoed, as if ancient gods were awakening, roaring.
“The Five Sacred Mountains receive the order!”
Heaven and earth, all beings, at that moment, received the command of the Heavenly Dao, fully awakened.
“Weihe receives the order!”
“Xuanyuan’s prohibition receives the order!”
“Tianjue receives the order!”
All things in the world seemed to gain souls, awakening from their slumber, responding to the will of the Heavenly Dao.
A snap of the fingers, and the command, “Play music!”
A flash of brilliance appeared in the eyes of the Da Zhi Zhenjun, and then the mournful yet exhilarating and heroic sound of the suona began to play.
The woman in white was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly joined in.
All across the Moon Watching Continent, one terrifying figure after another appeared.
They were like ancient innate gods, awakening from their slumber.
“By the order of the heavens, slay the Mara!”
A bolt of lightning tore through the sky, and the pitch-black world finally saw light.
In the heavens, countless bolts of lightning pierced through the space.
Looking up at the sky, the terrifying scene was a thousand times, ten thousand times more shocking than any star war.
Countless bolts of lightning, accompanied by terrifying figures, descended upon the Mara army.
Across the world, the millions of Molo troops had no idea what was happening before they were washed away by the lightning, suppressed by the mountains and rivers.
No matter how they resisted, no matter how they fled, it was all in vain.
For they were fighting against the entire world!
How could they possibly defeat the world itself?
“Thunder?”
“The heavens are angry!”
“Waaa... so many gods!”
“This is the manifestation of the will of the world!”
“The heavens have no eyes!”
“We’re done for, it’s all over. The Heavenly Dao of this world... has been devoured by a terrifying being!”
“How can we possibly oppose the mighty force of heaven and earth?”
In just three breaths, the millions of Molo troops scattered across the world were all annihilated.
Heaven and earth continued to tremble, and the origin was rejoicing, as if celebrating their supreme lord.
“Those who trespass on my Moon Watching Continent, kill without mercy!”
The voice echoed across the four seas and eight wildernesses, to the ends of the earth.
In the stronghold of the Canglan Realm, the prodigies who witnessed the resurrection of innate gods and the sky filled with divine lightning were all pale.
“Run!”
“The Blood-Clad Sword God is not human!”
These prodigies, along with some Nascent Soul cultivators, no longer cared about any calamity or stronghold, and all rushed back to the Canglan Realm.
What had happened here was too terrifying.
They couldn’t comprehend it at all.
But they knew it was definitely horrifying.
At that moment, in the valley, Qi Yuan looked at the people behind him: “The people are all dead. It’s time to go back.”
Qi Jianjun looked at Qi Yuan, her eyes curving into crescents as she smiled, “Hehe, turns out I really am Father’s own daughter.”
Behind her, Jiang Ya remained silent. The scene before her was something she had only read about briefly in ancient texts.
The Heavenly Dao... only the Heavenly Dao could explain this.
Had the Blood-Clad Sword God... devoured the Heavenly Dao of the Moon Watching Continent?
The woman in white was trembling.
At this moment, she fully understood.
She also realized why the Blood-Clad Sword God had asked her those questions by the lake.
The Blood-Clad Sword God before her was not human.
He was a ruthless god who dared to devour the Heavenly Dao!
He had hidden within the Moon Watching Continent, and even the great calamity of the Canglan Realm wouldn’t dare extend here.
...
In the Blood-Clad Alliance.
The old man of Meishan wore a worried expression.
In the grand hall, dozens of Purple Mansion cultivators had gathered, and none of them looked particularly cheerful.
This meeting was to deal with the Shuiyun Palace and the dispute between the Blood-Clad Sword God and Yeqiong Venerable.
Unfortunately, only two-thirds of them had come, with one-third of the Purple Mansion cultivators absent, which was quite telling.
“Who would have thought that Yunju Venerable would block Shuiyun Palace? We must remember this favor,” the old man of Meishan said.
Shuiyun Palace had come with great force, with the foundation of Yin Gods. The newly established Blood-Clad Alliance was no match for it.
“Yunju Venerable can block Shuiyun Palace for a while, but not forever. Once Yeqiong Venerable and our leader decide the outcome, Shuiyun Palace...” An elder’s face was filled with worry.
They had finally found a leader to resist the great calamity together, but who would have thought that the leader’s fate would soon be uncertain.
“It’s all my fault. I should have advised the leader not to offend Yeqiong Venerable. This time, with Yeqiong Venerable and Youqing Venerable joining forces, the leader’s fate seems bleak.” Yunzhong Court’s master lamented, full of self-blame. “It’s a pity that we can’t enter the void, so we have no idea what’s happening now.”
“Those two old scoundrels, Yeqiong Venerable and Youqing Venerable, bullying the weak and outnumbering our leader, they’ve cut off our hope in the Cangyun Continent. It’s truly detestable!” An old man was so angry that his nose was crooked.
“This is not the time for self-blame. We should be thinking about how to deal with this calamity,” Meishan said, turning to Xuye Li. “Old Xu, what do you think?”
Xu Ye raised an eyebrow: “Who wins and who loses is still uncertain.
I believe the Blood-Clad Sword God will be victorious.”
These words shocked everyone.
After all, the Blood-Clad Sword God was facing an ambush by two Yin Gods.
If two Yin Gods dared to launch a sneak attack, they must have been fully prepared.
At that moment, a panicked Nascent Soul cultivator rushed in.
“Not good, a Yin God is coming!”
Meishan froze for a moment and instinctively asked, “Which one?”
“Tiger Roar Venerable!” The Nascent Soul cultivator reported the name of the Yin God.
Meishan’s heart sank, and he felt as if his parents had died: “The Venerable has come to kill us?”
Tiger Roar Venerable was the father of the Shuiyun Palace’s mistress, a Yin God powerhouse.
Why had he suddenly appeared? If not to kill them, then for what?
But he was a bit puzzled.
A Yin God had arrived... so why wasn’t he attacking?
“Where is he?” They couldn’t escape, so Meishan asked in despair.
“Tiger Roar Venerable is waiting outside the grand hall, and he sent me in to report.” The Nascent Soul cultivator had never seen a Yin God before and was already scared out of his wits.
Meishan was stunned.
A Yin God waiting outside the hall?
How bizarre was this?
“Quick, go see what’s going on!”
Meishan hurried outside, followed closely by the other Purple Mansion cultivators.
After all, it was a Yin God. If they kept him waiting too long and he got angry, what if he killed them all?
Dozens of Purple Mansion cultivators hurriedly ran outside the hall.
They immediately saw a white-haired elder standing respectfully outside the grand hall.
If not for the terrifying aura emanating from him, they would never have believed that this was a Yin God.
“Greetings, Tiger Roar Venerable!”
The group of Purple Mansion cultivators hurried out, showing respectful expressions.
They had heard that Tiger Roar Venerable had a bad temper.
“Please, no need for such courtesy, my fellow Daoists. I don’t deserve this.” Tiger Roar Venerable smiled warmly, his expression kindly.
Meishan and the others were puzzled, not understanding what game Tiger Roar Venerable was playing. His attitude was too strange.
At that moment, Tiger Roar Venerable’s face showed a pained expression: “If a child is not taught, it is the father’s fault. My daughter, Lingjiao, was arrogant and reckless, offending Blood-Clad Sword God. She was rightly slain by him—slain well, slain wonderfully!”
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and two Purple Mansion cultivators fell to the ground.
One was a man, the other a woman.
Both were bound with ropes and covered in countless wounds, looking extremely miserable.
Meishan’s pupils contracted when he saw them.
These two were the lord and lady of Shuiyun Palace, both at the late Purple Mansion stage.
Yet they had been captured by Tiger Roar Venerable and brought here, bound and humiliated. It was truly baffling.
“I’ve been in seclusion for 300 years, paying no attention to worldly affairs. I never imagined that when I emerged, I would hear that these two had conspired with Yeqiong Venerable to plot against the Blood-Clad Sword God.
I’ve already crippled their cultivation and brought them to the Blood-Clad Alliance, to be dealt with as the Blood-Clad Sword God sees fit!” Tiger Roar Venerable said, striking Shuiyun Palace’s lord with a whip.
A terrifying bloody mark appeared, the strike infused with a soul attack that an ordinary person couldn’t bear. Yet the lord of Shuiyun Palace, like a dead pig, made no sound at all.
In the presence of a Yin God, even a late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator’s life and death were entirely in his hands.
The old man of Meishan remained silent, his heart in turmoil, completely unable to understand what had happened.
Could it be... that the Blood-Clad Sword God had won against Yeqiong Venerable?
But even if that were the case, why would an old Venerable like Tiger Roar Venerable surrender?
As they wondered, the spiritual energy in the heavens and earth began to gather.
All the Purple Mansion cultivators could feel the spiritual energy in the world churning as if a great figure was about to descend.
In the sky, terrifying figures appeared one after another.
“Venerable Qingmei requests an audience with the Blood-Clad Sword God!”
“Venerable Leichen requests an audience with the Blood-Clad Sword God!”
“Venerable Yunju requests an audience with the Blood-Clad Sword God!”
“So many Yin Gods... Oh my god, what on earth has happened!” All the Purple Mansion cultivators were shocked, having no idea what was going on.
These Venerables, legendary figures, had all gathered at the Blood-Clad Alliance to see the Blood-Clad Sword God. How could they not be stunned!
...
“Shocking! Four Gods Descend, Gather at the Blood-Clad Alliance!”
“Just now, four Yin Gods gathered at the Blood-Clad Alliance.
The specific reason is unknown. To find out what happens next, stay tuned!”
“??”
“Four Yin Gods gathered at the Blood-Clad Alliance. What happened? Tell us what happens next!”
“Damn it, why didn’t you finish the story?”
“If I find out where you live, I’ll definitely use a spell to erase you!”
A single post drew countless attention.
After all, four Yin Gods gathering at the Blood-Clad Alliance was a major event among major events.
Typically, Yin Gods remain unseen. Nearly 99% of cultivators have never seen a Yin God, only heard of them in legends.
On the Divine Flower Society Forum, a post by a Nascent Soul cultivator could attract countless followers.
Now, with four Yin Gods gathering at the Blood-Clad Alliance, how could it not spark imaginations?
Especially since there had been a dispute between Shuiyun Palace and the Blood-Clad Alliance.
It was rumored that Yeqiong Venerable and Youqing Venerable had jointly attacked the Blood-Clad Sword God.
Could it be that the situation had taken a turn?
All the cultivators were like ants on a hot pan, unwilling even to cultivate, constantly refreshing the posts.
The forum was filled with all kinds of information.
Some people speculated that there was a powerful Yin God artifact in the Blood-Clad Alliance, attracting the Yin Gods to fight over it.
Others claimed they saw Tiger Roar Venerable hang his son-in-law, the lord of Shuiyun Palace, outside the Blood-Clad Alliance.
In any case, the information varied, with none of it consistent.
Meanwhile, in the Divine Flower Four Emperors group.
Rogue Immortal Venerable was extremely anxious: “Ice Mountain Queen Sister, do you know what’s going on? Is Origin Heavenly Venerable okay? He should be fine, right?”
Ever since Shuiyun Palace declared war on the Blood-Clad Alliance, Rogue Immortal Venerable had been as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
But unfortunately, he was too weak to intervene in such a major event.
Ice Mountain Queen responded in the group: “Do you remember when Origin Heavenly Venerable said he was a Heavenly Dao Foundation?”
“Isn’t it normal for such a strong person to be a Heavenly Dao Foundation?” Rogue Immortal Venerable was puzzled, not understanding what Iceberg Overlord meant.
“What I mean is, Origin Heavenly Venerable’s Heavenly Dao Foundation is a true Heavenly Dao Foundation!”
“What?” Rogue Immortal Venerable was stunned, not comprehending her words.
A Heavenly Dao Foundation is a Heavenly Dao Foundation. What did she mean by a “true” one?
“He... devoured the Heavenly Dao of an entire world to form his foundation!” Ice Mountain Queen explained with a hint of mystery.
“What? He swallowed the heavens?” Rogue Immortal Venerable was shocked. “Devouring an entire Heavenly Dao, how is that even possible!”
He couldn’t even imagine it.
A cultivator who used Heaven’s pulse to build their foundation was someone he would look up to for the rest of his life.
Not to mention someone who devoured a Heavenly Dao.
What kind of concept was that?
Well, Rogue Immortal Venerable had no concept.
But swallowing the Heavenly Dao of a world would make someone far more powerful than a Yin God.
“Origin Heavenly Venerable doesn’t eat people, right?” Rogue Immortal Venerable shivered.
If he could eat the heavens, eating a person would be nothing to him, right?
At that moment, Ice Mountain Queen’s tone turned serious: “Do you remember what cultivation level Origin Heavenly Venerable claimed to be?”
“Golden Core!” Rogue Immortal Venerable said.
Back then, Origin Heavenly Venerable had pretended to be a small fry at the Golden Core stage when he met with him.
Who could have known that he would suddenly transform into a mighty Purple Mansion cultivator?
That was already terrifying.
Later, when he heard that the Blood-Clad Sword God had annihilated the Light Palace, Rogue Immortal Venerable had become numb.
That had already shown the power of a Yin God.
And now, he had even devoured a Heavenly Dao?
Ice Mountain Queen’s words were something Rogue Immortal Venerable completely believed.
“Do you remember what kind of Golden Core Origin Heavenly Venerable said he had formed?”
“Origin Heavenly Venerable mentioned in the forum that it was a Stellar... Golden Core.” Rogue Immortal Venerable typed, feeling a lump in his throat.
“Do you think... it’s possible that Origin Heavenly Venerable’s Golden Core is the actual sun in the sky?” Iceberg Overlord asked in the group.
Rogue Immortal Venerable was completely at a loss.
In the past, he would have said it was impossible.
But Origin Heavenly Venerable had shattered his understanding time and time again.
Could it be that someone had actually formed a Golden Core from the sun?
How... could that even be possible?
He blinked, looking up at the sun in the sky.
He couldn’t comprehend what kind of strength it would take to forge the sun into a Golden Core.
But suddenly, he thought of something.
“When the second sun appeared in the sky, was that when Origin Heavenly Venerable said he broke through to the Golden Core stage?”
