Chapter 1837 Falling into a Downward Crisis
Chapter 1837 Falling into a Downward Crisis
Venerable Dongxuan's gaze swept across the battlefield, finally settling on Immortal Venerable Kongxuan, and he slowly spoke:
"Fellow Daoist Kongxuan, take your people and retreat."
Kongxuan Immortal Venerable's face was ashen, and the Great Dao Tombstone Ferry behind him spun wildly!
"Dongxuan, you actually came..." Kongxuan Immortal Venerable's eyes were deep. "For this broken realm, you actually didn't hesitate to cross over to make enemies of both our realms?!"
Venerable Dongxuan shook his head: "Not as an enemy, but... as a protector of the Dao."
He looked toward the direction of the Nine Divine Realms, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "The Nine Lineages should not be extinguished. Today, I, the old Daoist, will use this Celestial Monitoring Instrument as my witness to fight for justice for both realms."
As soon as he finished speaking, the astronomical instrument suddenly rose into the sky.
On the compass, the projection of the stars in the sky spun wildly, and a vast power of the Great Dao, as boundless as the sea of stars, descended with a roar!
"This is... the Heavenly Dao Suppressing Technique of the Celestial Surveillance Instrument?!" Celestial Eye Immortal Venerable exclaimed in surprise.
Under the command of the Venerable Dongxuan, who is in the late stage of Golden Immortal, such power is beyond the resistance of ordinary Golden Immortals!
"Dongxuan, you have been in charge of the Celestial Monitoring Instrument for millions of years, have you ever predicted your own death date?"
The voice was as cold as ice that had stood for ten thousand years. The Void Profound Immortal Venerable clenched his right hand, and the Great Dao Tombstone Ferry suddenly contracted, transforming into a black stream of light that had been condensed to the extreme. It tore through the void and rushed straight towards the Cave Profound Venerable!
"I deduce all the myriad paths, but I do not deduce myself."
Venerable Dongxuan's expression was solemn. The celestial instrument in his hand shone brightly, and the projection of the stars around him spun wildly. "But today, I would like to deduce for you, fellow Daoist, the fate of your demise here!"
"Om-!"
The celestial instrument suddenly rose into the sky, and the stars on the compass shifted and evolved. A long river of starlight, condensed from pure celestial power, surged out and collided fiercely with the black stream of light!
"clang--!!!"
The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout billions of star fields. Two forces comparable to the peak of the Golden Immortals collided, directly piercing through the three layers of barriers in the northwest corner of the ninth-order grand formation, and even dimming the phantoms of the three auxiliary stars.
"Pfft!" A trickle of golden blood spilled from the corner of Venerable Dongxuan's mouth, and he staggered back three steps. The light of the Celestial Monitoring Instrument visibly dimmed.
Kongxuan Immortal Venerable also let out a muffled groan, and the Great Dao Tombstone Ferry trembled slightly, but was instantly repaired by endless Daoist energy.
"The Celestial Monitoring Instrument is ultimately just a treasure for deduction. In terms of killing... how can it compare to my Tombstone Ferry, which is based on the annihilation of all paths?" Immortal Venerable Kongxuan's eyes flashed with cold light. "Today, I will erect a monument for you!"
"The Immortal Burial Stele - Forever Suppressing Reincarnation!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Great Dao Tombstone Ferry expanded dramatically, transforming into a majestic tombstone that stretched across the starry sky. On the tombstone, the name, birth date, Dao foundation, and even all the causal lines of Venerable Dongxuan's cultivation to this day appeared!
This is going to completely destroy Venerable Dongxuan from the perspective of cause and effect!
"Arrogant!" Venerable Dongxuan's Celestial Instrument suddenly split into billions of starlight fragments, each of which transformed into a miniature compass.
"The Celestial Spheres and the Return of All Laws to Nothingness - Begin!"
"Rumble--"
Using the fragments of the Celestial Observation Instrument as the array base and the Great Dao Transmission of the late-stage Golden Immortal of the Cave Profound Venerable as the core, a rotating array covering hundreds of millions of miles was instantly formed!
Within the grand formation, each of the stars in the heavens projected starlight corresponding to the Great Dao cultivated by the Dongxuan, while the earth's dragon energy surged from the void, transforming into tangible chains that bound the grand formation.
"town!"
"grind!"
Two loud shouts rang out at the same time.
The Immortal Burial Stele, imbued with the ultimate intent of annihilating all paths, slammed fiercely into the core of the Revolving Array.
The rotating array unleashed countless stars simultaneously, transforming into a torrent composed of star blades that surged upwards!
"boom--"
This collision directly caused a crack to appear in the central star of the ninth-order grand formation!
……
Meanwhile, the battles on the other three Golden Immortal battlefields were even more brutal.
Jiao'er fought against two demons, Taotie Demon Lord and Hanji Demon Lord, one against one.
"Today I will show you what true mid-stage Golden Immortal power is!"
The Gluttonous Demon Lord laughed wildly, and the dark red ferry behind him spun wildly, with the torrent of the Void gushing out from the gaping maw of the abyss.
Wherever it went, even the void was dragged into eternal annihilation!
A cold light flashed in Jiao'er's icy blue eyes, and the ice crystal ferry behind her was turning: "Heavenly Cycle Revolves - Eternal Ice Seal!"
On the upper deck of the ferry, the starlight cast an extremely cold glow from the surrounding stars.
These starlight rays merged with Jiao'er's icy essence, transforming into a pale blue Time Freeze Domain, which forcefully froze the surging torrent of Guixu!
"You've only been a Golden Immortal for less than a thousand years, yet you've reached such a level. We can't let you live!"
The cold voice of the Cold Silence Demon Lord rang out, and the ice-blue ferry behind him had now transformed into a wheel of pure deathly silence.
The Wheel of Death slowly turned.
An ultimate sense of tranquility permeated the air.
The icy Daoist aura flowing around Jiao'er began to wither away under this deathly atmosphere!
Jiao'er frowned slightly, and the ice crystal ferry started spinning again: "Rotation in both directions—Ice Soul Rebirth!"
The upper level of the ice crystal ferry turns clockwise, sprinkling down icy dew imbued with life, nourishing the withering Daoist essence.
The lower layer reverses, spewing forth a chilling current of timeless void, resisting the erosion of deathly stillness.
Between the alternation of positive and negative forces, an absolute domain of life and death cycle was formed around Jiao'er, which withstood the combined suppression of two mid-stage Golden Immortals!
But the cost is enormous.
Cracks began to appear on the ferry Dao seal between Jiao'er's brows, and each forward and reverse rotation consumed the essence she had accumulated when refining the unclaimed ferry.
"Let's see how long she can hold out!" The Gluttonous Demon Lord grinned maliciously, and the crimson ferry reversed again, unleashing another torrent of returning to nothingness.
"At most thirty breaths." The Cold Silence Demon Lord's voice was icy, and the Wheel of Death Silence spun faster.
……
On another battlefield, Xuanweizi's situation was even more critical.
With his mid-stage Golden Immortal cultivation, he fought alone against two people of the same level, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord and the Xiaque Immortal Lord, and was almost struggling on the brink of life and death.
"Old man Xuanwei, your Zhou Tianjian secret technique is nothing but showing off your skills in front of my Thousand Faces Ferry!" The Thousand Faces Demon Lord's figure transformed into countless forms, each clone drawing upon a different Great Dao.
What's even more terrifying is that these clones are not simple illusions.
One of his clones summoned lightning, transforming into a ten-thousand-foot-long thunder dragon that pounced upon him.
One of his clones evolved into the Netherworld, and the battlefield in the void has transformed into a desolate region where the Great Dao ferries collide.
A clone used its charm to directly attack Xuanweizi's Dao Heart...
Thousands of clones, countless paths—this is the terrifying aspect of the Thousand-Faced Ferry.
Reflecting all laws, a thousand faces return to one!
Xuanweizi brandished his whisk, and the seven-colored ferry behind him, composed of runes from the celestial constellations, spun rapidly. He shouted, "Sever the cause and effect!"
The colorful ferry scattered countless contract runes. These runes were not for attack, but rather acted directly on the causal level, forcibly severing the causal connection between the Thousand Faces clone and the main body!
"Puff, puff, puff—"
Dozens of Thousand-Faced Clone figures suddenly froze, then vanished like bubbles.
"The art of cause and effect?" The Thousand-Faced Demon Lord's expression changed slightly, but he immediately chuckled sinisterly, "Too bad, can you capture it all?"
Before he finished speaking, hundreds more clones emerged from the mist!
At this moment, Immortal Venerable Xiaque's killing move arrived.
