Chapter 1798: The End of an Era
There were too many Feather tribesmen, and their cultivation was not low.
Even with the divine emperors, Si Wuya did not dare to underestimate the Feather tribe. There was also Emperor Yu, who had yet to make an appearance.
After observing the situation for a while, Si Wuya said, “Conch, keep an eye on Little Yuan’er.”
“Understood.”
Si Wuya spread his flaming wings and rose to the sky. The flaming wings grew to thousands of feet wide before a rain of flaming needles fell.
The Feather tribesmen had no choice but to retreat due to the unceasing rain of fire. At least 100 Feather tribesmen were pierced by the fire needles and burned by the true fire. Their Dantians’ sea of Qi were immediately destroyed, and they plummeted down to the Great Abyss Land. The blood had not even fallen to the ground before they were evaporated by the high heat.
A pungent smell of blood and charred flesh permeated the air as screams rang in the air.
“Take him down!” the first elder of the Feather tribe said with a wave of his hand.
About 100 Feather tribesmen holding white formation flags rushed up to the sky immediately.
Chaos had truly descended on the Great Abyss Land this time.
The three divine emperors were fighting with Xi w.a.n.gmu and the countless fierce beasts. No one knew where they had gone. They only saw flashes of light and heard thunderous sounds of a battle from afar.
The Feather tribesmen placed the white formation flags in their respective positions in the sky. Soon enough, a flag formation was formed. Countless energy blades swept across the Great Abyss Land like a storm.
Si Wuya frowned. He thought that with the support of four divine emperors, Little Yuan’er would be able to smoothly comprehend the Great Dao. However, he should have known they were walking into a trap. The sudden appearance of Xi w.a.n.gmu and Chang Cheng, the remnant ancient Saint slayers, and the abrupt change in the Feather tribe’s att.i.tude could not be a coincidence.
......
‘Is the first elder of the Feather tribe telling the truth? The Sacred Temple is in cahoots with them? Is this all orchestrated to deal with the four divine emperors?’
Si Wuya knew the possibility was not low.
Energy blades continued to rain down on the Great Abyss Land.
Si Wuya leaped to the top of the upper core and spread his wings. The flames on his body surged higher than before, covering the sky.
“Heavenly Void!”
A fiery-red light shot out from Si Wuya’s wings, tearing through s.p.a.ce. It weaved in and out in the sky like a needle.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Heavenly Void flew out, breaking the formation flags one by one.
The first elder of the Feather tribe exclaimed in surprise, “Void grade?!”
The first elder did not expect the other party to possess a void-grade weapon. His eyes turned red as he said, “I didn’t expect that the outstanding Commander of Tu Wei Hall to be a descendant of the Fire Deity. Moreover, you’re infinitely close to becoming a supreme being at such a young age. Alas, you’re destined to die today.”
The remaining formation flags and the Feather tribesmen suddenly circled the sky, forming a silvery white barrel-shaped defensive s.p.a.ce that seemed impregnable. Following that, pillars of light shot out.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Heaven and earth shook as the pillars of light crashed against Si Wuya’s wings, pressuring him. The pressure made it difficult for him to breathe. He frowned, “This formation…”
“For 100,000 years, what did the Feather tribe rely on to guard the Great Abyss Land and its Pillar of Destruction? Have you ever wondered why Great Emperor Ming Xin treats our tribe with such courtesy until now?” the first elder said as he joined his palms together.
More and more Feather tribesmen circled the sky. They used their feathers to weave a mysterious formation that looked like the stars.
Si Wuya, who was quite knowledgeable in formations, could not figure the formation out at the moment. He could only tell that it was ancient and mysterious and that its energy was pure and powerful.
At this moment, the first elder of the Feather tribe shouted, “Die!”
Buzz!
With the boost from the starry formation, the pillars of light grew even more brilliant; they were dazzlingly white, overwhelming the light from Si Wuya’s flames.
Upon seeing this, Conch’s expression changed slightly. She moved her hand, intending to use the Solar and Lunar Concentric Jade when she realized it was not with her; she had lent it to Zhu Honggong. She burned with anxiety wanting to help, but she knew she could not leave Little Yuan’er unguarded now. She could only watch helplessly as Si Wuya faced so many experts alone.
Si Wuya’s wings wrapped around his body as he quickly descended.
“You can’t avoid it!”
At the critical moment when the pillars of light shone down on not only Si Wuya, but on Little Yuan’er and Conch as well, Little Yuan’er suddenly burst forth with a golden light before a huge golden bloomed in the air.
When the golden lotus bloomed, an energy like a tsunami raged in all directions. Its light was blindingly bright.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
When the power from the formation collided with the golden lotus, the world trembled in fear.
Si Wuya and Conch, who were in the heart of the formation, were sent flying by the shockwave.
A golden pillar of light suddenly shot up to the sky. It shot past the Pillar of Destruction, through the clouds and the Cloud Domain, piercing the sky in the Great Void.
Everyone instinctively looked up.
The cultivators and fierce beasts that were rus.h.i.+ng toward the Great Abyss Land were stunned by the sight as well.
This was a sign that someone had comprehended the Great Dao. After comprehending the Great Dao, one would release an energy that was no weaker than that of a divine emperor.
However, the shocking thing was not the golden light. It was the huge golden lotus that easily devoured the pillars of light.
The violent and powerful energy all became a part of Little Yuan’er.
When the light gradually died down and everyone’s vision returned to them, they saw Little Yuan’er hovering above the golden lotus. Most shockingly was the very distinct circular light at the bottom of her lotus.
“Innate supreme being?!” the first elder of the Feather tribe exclaimed in shock.
Even Si Wuya was shocked. “She directly became a supreme being after comprehending the Great Dao?!”
To become a supreme being, one not only had to activate 36 Birth Charts, but one also had to comprehend the Great Dao and the great law. After forming the first light disk, one would officially become a supreme being.
If one comprehended a great law, but had yet to activate all 36 Birth Charts, one could only be considered a Great Dao Saint. There were not many cultivators like this, and they were considered geniuses for being able to comprehend a great law so quickly. Mings.h.i.+ Yin was one of them.
After activating 36 Birth Charts and comprehending the Great Dao and the great law, one could barely be considered a supreme being. Only after forming the first light disk could one be considered a supreme being.
The light disk at the bottom of the Little Yuan’er’s golden lotus indicated that she was now undoubtedly a supreme being!
The small golden lotus between Little Yuan’er’s eyebrows shone in accordance with the light disk under her feet. The law from the Great Dao surged like water, mysterious and unfathomable.
The eyelids of the first elder twitched as he roared, “What are you waiting for?! The power must be returned to the Great Abyss Land!”
Si Wuya endured the pain and flapped his flaming wings. The power of the great law surged as s.p.a.ce began to distort. He cried out, “Let’s go!”
At the same time, the flag formation lit up again.
When Little Yuan’er opened her eyes and saw the chaotic scene, she was confused. “What’s happening?”
“Conch!” Si Wuya called out. He swept his wings out, sending thousands of Feather tribesmen flying.
Little Yuan’er and Conch were pulled back by Si Wuya’s energy, and they streaked across the sky, flying into the distance.
At this time, a low voice rang from the Great Abyss Land’s main hall.
“Don’t let them escape!”
“Understood!”
Countless Feather tribesmen rushed out.
The Three-headed tribe at the Great Abyss Land heard the call and chased after the trio as well.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Huge rocks rolled down from the Pillar of Destruction.
The Feather tribesmen, who stayed back to guard the pillar, looked up with worried expressions on their faces.
The sounds of the rocks falling were the declaration to all living things that the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction was about to fall. The collapse of the sky was about to begin!
The empty area on the ground of the Cloud Domain spanned 3,000 miles. The Great Abyss Land relied on these 3,000 miles of emptiness to enjoy the sunlight
The Great Abyss Land occupied an area of 10,000 miles. The collapse of the Pillar of the Destruction here meant that at least 7,000 miles of land would be destroyed in just an instant.
All living things would die here!
“Emperor Yu, the sky… the sky is going to fall!”
The Feather tribesmen trembled in fear.
However, this was not enough to stop the battle. Instead, it grew fiercer and fiercer.
High up in the air, the three divine emperors’ avatars kept the falling rocks away.
Each of the rocks was 1,000 feet wide.
Boom!
When the first rock fell on the ground in the Great Abyss Land, it instantly smashed hundreds of Three-headed tribesmen and turned them into meat paste.
Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
It was unprecedentedly chaotic.
Shang Zhang and Xi w.a.n.gmu had fought for a long time, but it was a draw.
The tens of thousands of fierce beasts flew back and forth, avoiding the rocks.
The stars from the flag formation finally lit up again.
Bai Zhaoju transmitted his voice to the other two divine emperors who were 100 miles away. “The sky is starting to fall. Be careful!”
“Let’s end this quickly,” Ling Weiyang replied.
“Ling Weiyang, I’ll leave this to you. I’ll go and check on the girls,” Shang Zhang said as he looked worriedly in the direction of the Great Abyss Land.
Ling Weiyang said in a deep voice, “Alright, go!”
Shang Zhang was truly worried about Conch and Little Yuan’er.
Xi w.a.n.gmu said in a loud and powerful voice, “The heavens are heartless and treat all living things like ants. You’re the main culprit of this disaster!”
They could barely see each other as they launched attacks continuously.
Bai Zhaoju retorted, “The sky has already begun to fall. Xi w.a.n.gmu, do you have the heart to watch these fierce beasts die with you?”
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
More and more huge rocks fell from the sky.
“I should’ve left 100,000 years ago, but I did not. I was born in ancient times. I was born according to heaven’s will. If the sky does not kill me, I’ll live forever. I’ll live and die as the sky does!” Xi w.a.n.gmu said pa.s.sionately.
“Idiot!” Bai Zhaoju cursed angrily, “There are many places in the world where you can go!”
Xi w.a.n.gmu raised its head and looked at the sky.
It was now dark. The constantly falling huge rocks had covered up the sunlight.
Xi w.a.n.gmu’s eyes shone with a strange light. It was as though it had seen the future and the end. Then, it said, “Just as you said, it’s inevitable. Heaven’s will cannot be disobeyed. Perhaps, the era of the Great Void should come to an end!”
With that, lotuses burst forth from Xi w.a.n.gmu’s body.
The Ternary Green Bird shrieked angrily. Its soundwaves swept away the huge rocks in the sky.
At the same time, tens of thousands of fierce beasts rushed toward the divine emperors as though they had lost their minds.
…
At the same time.
At the boundless Endless Ocean.
Kun Peng continued to fly. It was unknown how much distance it had crossed.
Meanwhile, even with his supreme being’s cultivation base and the divine Dao power, Lu Zhou’s vision was blurry.
Kun Peng continued flying in the cracks and darkness between the s.p.a.ce.
Boom!
All of a sudden, Kun Peng descended swiftly before light appeared again. It slowed down, and Lu Zhou’s vision became clear again.
Wu!
Kun Peng’s cry resounded in the sky, spreading more than 6,000 miles.
With that, Lu Zhou withdrew his hand and looked down at the Endless Ocean. He saw a huge maelstrom with a diameter of more than 6,000 miles. It churned clockwise.
The air, the sky, the clouds, and even s.p.a.ce and light seemed to churn along with the maelstrom. Although the sky was blue, the churning clouds and air made it seem like a huge storm was coming.
“This is the Great Maelstrom?” Lu Zhou was amazed. The Unholy One had been here before, but Lu Zhou had no memory of it.
Kun Peng under Lu Zhou’s feet was like a small boat in comparison to the Great Maelstrom. As for himself, he was just like an insignificant speck of dust.
The speed of the churning maelstrom was not particularly fast. On the contrary, the water seemed to flow slowly, following the speed of the air and the clouds.
Lu Zhou activated his blue eyes to see if there were any cultivators or living things around. However, apart from him and Kun Peng, he did not sense anyone.
“What secrets are hidden in the Great Maelstrom?”
