Chapter 542: A Sword Slashes Through the Eternal Azure Sky!
In the ancient times, when the grand battle of the Heavenly Court came to an end, Emperor Fu Xi clashed with six supreme beings from Heaven beyond Heaven. In the ultimate conclusion, two unparalleled dignitaries were slain and four others sustained severe injuries.
And among the corpses of the two supreme beings who perished in battle, one of them was secretly concealed by the thirteen ancestors, while the remaining corpse was suppressed by Emperor Fu Xi.
The eerie world in the Celestial Desolation Realm, the four great ferocious beasts, as well as the malevolent creatures within the eerie world, all represent the continued manifestation of the vengeful power stemming from this long-transformed supreme corpse.
However, the terrifying figure that emerged from the eerie world was not an ordinary Corpse Fiend.
It resembles more of a dreadfully sinister and eerie cursed sword, rather than a Corpse Fiend!
In life, it was unparalleled in the way of the sword, and after death, it unexpectedly stepped into an eerie realm that no one had ever reached before.
At this moment, it is not only the most terrifyingly eerie cursed sword in all the realms, but also a bone-chilling Corpse Fiend Supreme Being!
Even though it retained no consciousness, with even its memories from its previous life dissipated, leaving only the purest instinct for slaughter, yet when it caught sight of the Thirteen Ancestors in an instant, it still went mad.
For as the mighty sword, it must eradicate the most powerful beings!
And at this moment, the three supreme Corpse Fiend Ancestors, who have ascended to an exalted state on the forbidden path, comparable to immortality, are the most formidable entities in all the realms!
In the midst of a sharp and piercing roar, the glaring green light shattered the fabric of space and transformed into a sinister sword intent, cleaving through the fragmented Pure Land, directly aiming to strike down the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors who sought to surround and eliminate Lu Heng!
In a flash, it stepped out of the Celestial Desolation Realm and plunged deep into the shattered Pure Land! Swift as can be, nearing the pinnacle!
"Damn it!"
The evil sword forged from the Corpse Fiend emitted a metallic sound that was both resounding and unsettling, bearing no semblance to a living creature.
In an instant, it unexpectedly forced the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors to continuously retreat.
This eerie necromantic fiend, born from the immortal and supreme corpse nurtured by the essence of sword intent over countless ages, surpasses the strength of the necromantic Corpse Fiends created by the thirteen ancestors through unholy rituals by an unknown magnitude.
With the sword intent flowing harmoniously, it compelled even the three mighty Corpse Fiend Ancestors to display a hint of disarray.
Because this supreme Corpse Fiend surges forward relentlessly, embodying both a demonic sword and a malevolent spirit, it pays no heed to its own harm, raging vehemently with a sole intent of slaughter. Its purpose upon arriving in this realm is to annihilate all living beings without mercy.
However, the three mighty Corpse Fiend Ancestors dared not truly engage in a life-and-death struggle with it.
Because the Heavenly Lord Lu Heng, who has been coldly observing the ongoing battle in the shattered Pure Land, possesses unknown means and methods.
The Heavenly Lord Lu Heng, who has reached the realm of immortality and transcended the existence of all things, has long surpassed the realms of heavens, gazed into the depths of time, and foreseen everything that is happening today.
Since his appearance, an unending array of contingencies has unfolded, compelling everyone to be caught off guard and left in disarray.
Even though they now hold the initiative through drastic measures, the Heavenly Lord Lu Heng, who has been observing with detached indifference, remains unaffected. The apathetic gaze casts immense pressure upon the thirteen ancestors.
They feared that with a casual gesture from the mysterious and terrifying Heavenly Lord Lu Heng, he would once again bring forth some contingency that would push everyone to the brink of despair.
Witnessing the disruption caused by the Supreme Corpse Fiend, and realizing that they had already missed the prime opportunity to besiege Lu Heng, the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors swiftly made a decisive choice and departed directly.
"Go!"
The three Corpse Fiend Ancestors shouted in unison, launching a powerful assault on the fabric of space and time, without any reluctance to engage in battle.
The Eternal Pure Land, which was already in a state of chaotic collapse, became even more ravaged under the relentless onslaught of the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors.
The tumultuous currents of space and time no longer swept, but surged forth in an overwhelming deluge! It was as if the vast ocean had overturned, and the realms were thrown into chaotic upheaval!
The time and space within the shattered Pure Land were completely shattered by its impact.
Ultimately, a vast and resplendent river of immense magnitude emerged from the distant end of time and space, surging and undulating within the realm of nothingness.
That is the river of time that exists only in legendary scriptures, a ceaselessly flowing entity! It serves as a link between the past, present, and future! Moreover, it is a realm that can only be touched by entities that possess immortality!
The three Corpse Fiend Ancestors actually forcibly manifested this ethereal and elusive river of time into existence! And they directly vanished into it! It is unknown which realm of time and space they entered, completely disappearing from the world.
However, within the resplendent river, the Supreme Corpse Fiend's sword exuded a chilling and ferocious aura. Despite having perished, it remains an undying entity of supreme status. Astonishingly, it directly traverses the vast river of time, continuing its relentless onslaught towards the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors ahead!
This scene astonished everyone.
Although supreme beings can traverse time and space, it requires the power of the Great Tao to pave the way. The fallen immortals, who have degenerated into Corpse Fiends, are incapable of possessing the power of the Great Tao, making it utterly impossible for them to traverse time and space!
However, this eerie presence before them, resembling a Corpse Fiend yet even more sinister, and resembling a sinister sword yet even sharper, crossed the river of time and relentlessly pursued the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors in a frenzy!
Through the eons, a single sword cleaves the azure sky!
That horrifying sword aura, astonishingly shatters the fabric of time, annihilates all boundaries, without the need for the power of the Great Tao to pave the way. It solely relies on its overwhelming sword intent to violently cleave open the river of time, wreaking havoc in the realm of ages!
In the face of such a terrifying scene, even Lu Heng, the chief culprit, couldn't help but shudder with fear.
The entity capable of attaining immortality is truly terrifying! Even with only a lifeless corpse remaining, it still manages to slaughter the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors, leaving them with no refuge!
In the vast river of time, the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors, forced to the point of having no escape, dare not flee any further.
Because beyond that particular stretch of time lies the proximity to the ancient war. Although these immortal beings transcend time itself and don't manifest within the river of ages, if they were to recklessly intrude upon that period, they would encounter the several supreme beings who were in the midst of a bloody massacre at that time…
Such a situation is tens of thousands of times more dangerous than the present!
In the river of time, the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors gazed at each other, and ultimately reached a simultaneous decision.
--Escape to Heaven beyond Heaven!
Their ultimate purpose, which they had meticulously planned for years, was to seek revenge against the group of supreme beings in Heaven beyond Heaven who had broken their promises. Now, with the terrifying and evil Supreme Corpse Fiend infiltrating Heaven beyond Heaven, it serves as a perfect diversion for the attention of this Corpse Fiend.
Because in Heaven beyond Heaven, immortal supremes truly exist!
Once there, this Supreme Corpse Fiend will naturally shift its target and engage in deadly combat! And as chaos ensues, they will take advantage of the situation to completely disrupt the idyllic realm of cultivators in Heaven beyond Heaven, causing the supreme being who once betrayed them to pay the price!
However, by intruding into Heaven beyond Heaven, it is certain to alert the terrifying supreme being within, exposing their years-long conspiracy.
Subsequently, what will descend is undoubtedly the wrath of the supreme being, the annihilation of seven realms, erasing all of their lineage and ancestral legacies!
Even if they were to succeed in seeking revenge, they would also have to pay the price of the extinction of the seven realms.
Given the circumstances, they are already left with no choice.
Or rather, from the moment Lu Heng emerged to disrupt the situation, they had no other option!
The three of them had no choice but to abandon the entire seven realms, including the remaining ten ancestors, and journey toward Heaven beyond Heaven.
Otherwise, if the plan were to be perfectly executed, with all Thirteen Ancestors reaching the pinnacle of transcendence, they could have sought revenge upon the Supreme Beings of Heaven beyond Heaven, while preserving the safety of the seven realms.
In the long river of time, the three Great Ancestors grew increasingly resentful, with no other option but to carry on.
From behind, the terrifying and unparalleled Supreme Corpse Fiend relentlessly pursued, shattering the ancient void with his sword aura.
They didn't even have time to spew out vicious curses at Lu Heng before they were compelled to make a move together, risking alerting the supreme beings of Heaven beyond Heaven, in order to open the gate leading to Heaven beyond Heaven.
Boom!
The terrifying roar reverberated, causing ripples in the river of time.
A colossal gateway emerged at the distant end of spacetime.
There, surpassing time and space, existing independent of all realms, and even beyond the constraints of time! It is completely outside the realm of ages, a true land beyond the heavens! The Pure Land of Myriad Realms!
