Chapter 999: Eradicating All Enemies
Chapter 999: Eradicating All Enemies
“Clever and decisive, with resolute character! ”
Seeing Xin Hongyun slaughter herself on the spot, Fang Xi clapped his hands and praised, looking at the people of Shushan: “If you are smart, you should choose to walk the path with this woman. . . ”
“Demon! ”
Mo Yi Zui shouted, “We disciples of Shushan would rather die than yield! ”
“Excellent! ”
Fang Xi flicked the ‘Life-Death Sword’ in his hand!
His comprehension of the Laws of Life and Death had long reached the realm of a ‘prototype of a Void Dao Seed’. This Life-Death Sword achieved enlightenment amidst reincarnation, transforming life and death into Yin and Yang, wielding time and space. Its power was truly boundless, serving as the core of the Small Three Wonders Sword Array.
At this moment, a clear, ringing sword cry resounded!
Not just him, but also Yu Ying, Bu Dengyun, Liu Pingting, and several Shushan elders of ordinary cultivation and little presence, all had their primordial spirits disperse, their wisps of true spirit cast into reincarnation!
Not only that, their true spirits were also damaged by the Laws of Reincarnation secretly hidden within Fang Xi’s ‘Life-Death Flying Sword’.
They would likely have to reincarnate as insects for a hundred lifetimes, then as beasts for a hundred lifetimes, before finally having a sliver of a chance to be reborn as a human.
Even if they were reborn, they would likely be utterly ignorant, with no aptitude or foundation for cultivation to speak of. They would have to thank heavens if they possessed the intelligence of an ordinary person; there was an eighty percent chance of being born disabled or an idiot!
Comparatively, Xin Hongyun’s approach was considerably smarter.
Though it was also death, she would likely have a chance to be reborn as a human after ten lifetimes as a beast.
Moreover. . . livestock like pigs, cattle, sheep, horses, chickens, and dogs often had short lifespans, with a single lifetime passing in just a few years. As long as the reincarnation was fast enough, their karmic sins could be quickly washed away.
“Demon! ”
The Emotionless Abbess’s eyes split with rage, and a ball of clear light appeared behind her head. Her primordial spirit, wielding a sword, fiercely slashed towards Fang Xi!
Fang Xi sneered. The Taiyi Formless Sword and the Time Warden Sword, one to the left and one to the right, trapped the flying sword from her primordial spirit.
The Life-Death Sword flew out and instantly cut down this old nun.
Not only did it cut her down, but it also deliberately added an extra mark with the Laws of Reincarnation, ensuring this old nun would receive even more ‘special treatment’ from the ‘Reincarnation Disk’.
“Amitabha! ”
The Emperor Heart Monk’s face was filled with a bitter smile as he watched his own flying sword break, then be pierced through the heart by three flying swords and die.
Golden light shimmered around Spiritual Zen Child.
As a Celestial Immortal, and with the ‘Pure Equilibrium Sword’ and the ‘Innate Pristine Qi Taiji Diagram’ in hand, he watched as Fang Xi utterly massacred the Shushan elites, yet did not make a move.
Fang Xi stood with the Taiyi Formless Sword, Time Warden Sword, and Life-Death Sword hovering around him, silently observing Spiritual Zen Child.
“How is it, Fellow Daoist, have you killed enough? ”
Spiritual Zen Child asked.
For a moment, all the cultivators present gazed in astonishment at this Shushan Sect Master, feeling as if he had suffered qi deviation, as if something was wrong with his head.
Only the Divine Wood Elder, Misty Fairy Yun Shan Shan, and a few other mortal realm grandmasters understood Spiritual Zen Child’s true intentions.
“Not enough. . . As long as Fellow Daoist remains in Shushan, even if these elders and disciples reincarnate for a thousand or ten thousand lifetimes, they could still be summoned back and resume their path of immortality. ”
Fang Xi shook his head: “Moreover. . . if I release the tiger back to the mountains, Fellow Daoist might even restart the righteous-demonic sword struggle, seize the destiny of the unorthodox sects, and then ascend to the Celestial Realm. . . wouldn’t that be too much of a bargain for you? ”
“It seems Fellow Daoist is unwilling to let me go. In truth, if Fellow Daoist lets me leave, I can swear an oath that Shushan will never be your enemy again. . . ”
Spiritual Zen Child made a final effort.
Upon hearing this, Fang Xi still shook his head.
Spiritual Zen Child sighed, a sigh that spoke of the vicissitudes of life, seemingly filled with the helplessness of the mortal world.
Immediately after, the ‘Two Modes One Qi Nine Palaces Sumeru Grand Array’ shot up into the sky.
This Shushan sect-guarding grand array encompassed numerous transformations of Yin and Yang, motion and stillness, truth and illusion, darkness and light, truly representing the highest manifestation of Grand Purity Daoist Arts.
The Divine Wood Elder and Yun Shan Shan saw, amidst layer upon layer of golden light, innumerable gateways opening, transforming into nine resplendent golden palaces.
Small worlds emerged and perished within the golden light, causing them to feel a sense of their own insignificance, like a speck of dust, their hearts struck with terror.
They knew this array could almost be considered the foremost immortal array in the mortal realm!
“Shushan’s Spiritual Zen requests your guidance, Fellow Daoist. ”
Spiritual Zen Child held the Pure Equilibrium Sword, a layer of Grand Purity Immortal Light swirling around his body.
His Celestial Immortal primordial spirit was clear and transparent, his magic boundless, truly a first-rate cultivation achievement in this world.
With this Profound Capital Primordial Spirit driving the ‘Two Modes One Qi Nine Palaces Sumeru Grand Array’, a layer of golden light emerged and perished beneath his feet. The Pure Equilibrium Sword, receiving the blessing of ‘Grand Purity Immortal Light’, immediately let out a roar and transformed into a hundred-zhang golden dragon. With a resplendent sword strike, the entire world was dyed a fiery gold!
“This Shushan Sect Master, his cultivation and sword arts are entirely above those of the Scorching Fire Patriarch! ”
“Perhaps, he is already the foremost person of this era! ”
Duan Mu Long and the few Loose Immortals present were all deeply impressed and awed by this sight.
“Grand Purity Immortal Arts, Shushan Sword Arts? ”
Fang Xi’s eyes shone brightly, and he shouted, “Small Three Wonders Sword Array, activate! ”
He held the Life-Death Flying Sword, and the prototype of the Dao Seed of Life and Death fused into the flying sword.
This flying sword immediately shot out, its sword light splitting, resembling a Taiji diagram.
The ‘Taiyi Formless Sword’ traversed the void, the ‘Time Warden Sword’ wielded time, one Yin and one Yang, one moving and one still, one living and one dying. . .
With the Life-Death Flying Sword as its core, it wielded time and space, the two poles rotating, endlessly vital!
Boundless sword light descended, forming a grand array that contained the numerous profound mysteries of void, time, life, death, and reincarnation.
This was precisely Fang Xi’s ‘Small Three Wonders Sword Array’, executed by drawing upon the ‘Eight Gates Sword Array’ as a reference, with his foundation as an Immortal Array Master, three immortal flying swords as its base, and his profound comprehension of laws!
This sword array was immensely powerful; its boundless sword light, like a galaxy spanning ten thousand li, fiercely shattered the defenses of the nine golden palaces!
“What kind of sword array is this? ”
“We sword immortals, to one day witness such a formation, can truly die without regrets! ”
Those rogue sword immortals and sword heroes, who would thank heavens if they had even one flying sword in their entire lives, had never seen such an immensely powerful formation, let alone one paired with numerous immortal swords. They were truly dazzled and bewildered, barely knowing where they were.
The two immortal arrays collided with a thunderous roar, countless small worlds were born, then annihilated by streaks of sword light.
The Divine Wood Elder hastily called upon Duan Mu Long, fully activating the Divine Wood Island’s formation, yet he still felt the entire Divine Wood Island swaying precariously, as if it would turn to dust in the next moment!
All the cultivators on the island would utterly transform into vengeful spirits!
Even so, as he watched the two battling with swords, he could not bring himself to ask them to stop.
Because the Divine Wood Elder knew, this was a Dao dispute!
Until death, no surrender!
Whoosh, whoosh!
In the void, two streaks of sword light constantly changed, fiercely battling for an unknown number of rounds.
“What a Spiritual Zen Child. ”
Fang Xi praised. This Spiritual Zen Child was indeed worthy of being the Shushan Sect Master, a master who had cultivated for countless generations, and who in this life had finally achieved the fruit of a Celestial Immortal!
His sword arts were flawlessly refined and cunningly mature, far surpassing all the old stalwarts of Shushan.
Not only that, he had also cultivated Shushan’s sect-guarding Dao art to an extremely high level.
Within that supremely pure and clean Grand Purity Immortal Light, Doushuai True Edicts radiated with purple light, indicating that his cultivation progress and mastery were perhaps only a hair’s breadth away from the Shushan Patriarch who ascended back then!
As long as he obtained the Purple-Green Immortal Seal, he would surely be able to refine a ‘Grand Purity Primordial Spirit’ and achieve the position of a Golden Immortal.
A Golden Immortal is one who is imperishable through ten thousand tribulations, whose primordial spirit contains a trace of immortal golden essence!
If one reached such a position, what did boundless karma descending from heaven matter? One could still suppress one’s own destiny with their Dao cultivation, absolutely free from any worries of a low point in their destiny!
Precisely because of this, Fang Xi knew he absolutely could not let this person go.
‘After this battle, numerous gazes from the Celestial Realm will be fixed upon this place. . . ’
‘Perhaps even Golden Immortals, Bodhisattvas, or even Dao Monarch-level beings might reincarnate, specifically to study and deal with me. . . to become my tribulation! ’
‘As for the enemy’s wings, clip as many as possible. ’
Fang Xi’s ‘Five Elements Primordial Spirit’ flew out, containing Hunyuan Immortal Talismans within it, which suddenly merged with the three flying swords, transforming into a five-colored aurora that pierced the heavens and earth, fiercely crashing into Spiritual Zen Child!
At this moment, the two grand arrays, entangled with each other, simultaneously malfunctioned for a moment!
In the blink of an eye, Fang Xi’s Five Elements Primordial Spirit had already knocked away the Pure Equilibrium Sword, ruthlessly shattered that layer of Grand Purity Immortal Light, and collided with the Profound Capital Primordial Spirit.
The five-colored aurora transformed into black, white, red, gold, and green, piercing through the Profound Capital Primordial Spirit!
“Fellow Daoist, your heart is truly ruthless and decisive! ”
Spiritual Zen Child’s mouth and nose overflowed with blood, and he gave a tragic smile: “I have lost. . . ”
In truth, the two were mostly evenly matched. His defeat lay in cherishing himself a bit too much, unable to go all out like Fang Xi, directly sending out his primordial spirit to fight for his life!
One must know that for cultivators of orthodox Daoist sects, the primordial spirit is the foundation for achieving the Dao, and must be treated with extreme caution, unable to tolerate the slightest injury.
But for unorthodox cultivators, racking their brains to refine their primordial spirits, to increase the power of their primordial spirits by another fraction for use in combat, was the mainstream!
Moreover. . . Fang Xi was famous for not fearing death.
After all, it was merely an external avatar.
Even if this Five Elements Primordial Spirit perished together with Spiritual Zen Child, it would still be a great boon to him!
He could re-condense it at any time and return after another reincarnation!
When both sides have roughly equal strength, one side being able to restart infinitely is, of course, cheating as if using a cheat code!
Now that Spiritual Zen Child’s primordial spirit was shattered, he did not have much longer to live.
“Ten lifetimes, one sword, a dream of ascension, earning the world’s name for coldness. When the cloud seas have idled for a day, the phoenixes will fly back home! ”
Spiritual Zen Child sang a song as he walked, and with each step, a layer of Grand Purity Immortal Light on his body dispersed.
After nine steps, his Profound Capital Primordial Spirit utterly perished, a wisp of his true spirit reincarnated, leaving only a sword and a diagram hovering in mid-air, a mournful cry resounding.
Fang Xi remained silent at this sight.
Even if he cultivated the Laws of Reincarnation to the realm of Law Manifestation, he could at most heavily injure a true spirit, making it difficult to utterly destroy.
To utterly destroy the true spirits of these Shushan people, leaving them not only body and spirit utterly annihilated but also without even a chance to reincarnate and start over. . . he would probably need to be at least at the Dao Monarch realm, and furthermore, he would have to take the Laws of Reincarnation as the core, merge with the Dao Seed of Reincarnation, and achieve a Reincarnation Dao Monarch!
“Fellow Daoist Fang. . . ”
The Divine Wood Elder, seeing this scene, didn’t know what to say.
The numerous cultivators present; the entire field fell silent.
Among them, the Great Desolate Divine Monarch made a hand seal, secretly activated a treasure, and vanished without a trace.
Fang Xi sneered. The Taiyi Formless Sword traversed the void, a single sword strike departing.
A miserable shriek immediately echoed from afar!
