Chapter 757: Drawing a Boundary for the God

Xu Qing knew his own strength; against this Bai Xiaozhuo at the Great Perfection of Void Returning, he was no match.

Unless he used the Ancient Sun.

But if he did that, the scope of the aftermath would be too great.

He feared the entire Imperial Academy space would collapse, and the Imperial Capital would also be plunged into catastrophe.

Besides... using the Ancient Sun to kill a single Bai Xiaozhuo, Xu Qing felt Bai Xiaozhuo was not worthy.

Therefore, this Ancient Sun served more as a deterrent and a means of self-preservation.

"If the Imperial Sword could be moved, all of this would actually be simple."

Xu Qing felt regret in his heart.

Unfortunately, since the Imperial Sword was currently unmoved, if he wanted to slay Bai Xiaozhuo, Xu Qing understood that the only thing he could do was use the method of using a four-ounce weight to move a thousand pounds.

Expose Bai Xiaozhuo's identity and destroy him in the name of the human race's great righteousness.

As for the crow, it was not yet the time.

With Xu Qing's current momentum, it was not enough to thoroughly shake a State Preceptor.

Thus, he sat cross-legged on the white Dao platform shrouded by the formation, gazing at the battle in the sky together with the Sect Master of the Heterodox Immortal School beside him, Chen Daoze, and the large number of students below.

Compared to the calmness Xu Qing displayed at this moment, the side of the God-Melting School was infinitely complex, with panic and anxiety unable to be suppressed.

Even the Heterodox Immortal School Master had huge waves in his heart; he had never imagined that the Sect Master of the God-Melting School was actually the Candlelight Bai Xiaozhuo.

And this answer also allowed him to see the dawn.

He knew very well that after this battle, the rise of the Heterodox Immortal School was unstoppable.

The God-Melting School would fall apart, and all its students and high-level members would certainly be strictly monitored to root out the Candlelight remnants within.

And all of this was brought about by this Ancestor Xu Qing beside him.

As various thoughts churned, the Heterodox Immortal School Master glanced at Chen Daoze beside him, who nodded slightly at him.

The Heterodox Immortal School Master's heart was firm, so when he turned to look at Xu Qing, his eyes revealed deep respect.

But Xu Qing's attention was not on his surroundings; his entire perception at this moment was placed on the battlefield.

This was a rare battle to observe, one that could allow everyone to have a better understanding of the Void Returning realm.

And for Xu Qing, the significance of observing this battle was particularly profound.

Because this was also a battle between Immortal Cultivators and God Cultivators.

Even though the level displayed was not yet Spirit-Concealing, the strikes of multiple Fourth-Stage Void Returning experts still blurred the firmament.

Therefore, those without a certain cultivation base saw only lightning and thunder, the sun and moon appearing and disappearing, their ears filled with roaring, and their eyes filled with chaos.

But for Spirit-Concealing cultivators, they could see much more.

They could feel the changes between the rules and laws in the firmament, and could even perceive the rules becoming substantial, with the laws forming ancient phantoms that continuously shook the divinity coming from the Candlelight side.

This was observing the Dao.

And depending on their respective experiences and the focus of their cultivation, the battlefield rules revealed to different people were also different.

What one person saw clearly, others might not see clearly, and vice versa.

Thus, the students of the Imperial Academy held their breath and focused, each gaining their own insights.

Only those whose cultivation had reached Void Returning could truly see the entire appearance of the battlefield, see all the rules and laws revealed, and see the countless Great Daos flowing.

In the eyes of the Void Returning, the battle in the sky was like the reappearance of an ancient war, and every syllable of the roaring sound contained the method of the Great Dao.

It echoed continuously, shattering the void and causing cracks to appear in this Imperial Academy space.

Looking closely, these cracks also possessed changes in rules, making people's minds shake while instinctively deep in thought.

But all of this was actually just appearance; the true inner essence could only be seen through by those who reached the same level as them or higher.

Xu Qing's cultivation had not reached that level, but he was different from others.

He was an Immortal Cultivator, and also a God Cultivator.

Thus, in his eyes, the battlefield was also different from others.

What he saw was five-colored light interwoven in the firmament, like a flowing and abstract painting.

In the painting, Bai Xiaozhuo, in the appearance of a god, had a figure that was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.

Every place he flashed to was different.

The Imperial Academy Principal who was fighting him had terrifying cultivation, especially with the blessing of the Imperial bloodline, making him even more formidable than a normal Great Perfection of Void Returning by three parts.

Every strike had millions, tens of millions, or even more Great Daos manifesting, coordinated with the wandering of his Natal Golden Dragon.

All rules changed according to his will.

Sometimes turning into a dazzling sun, sometimes turning into an ancient war chariot to kill and collide, sometimes turning into giant beasts never seen before, displaying strange Daos, suppressing Bai Xiaozhuo in various ways.

And around the two of them, the Sect Masters of other schools, though there was a gap, were equally astonishing.

They fought the five alien God-Melting puppets until the sky turned dark, each suffering injuries.

The Great Perfection of Void Returning could be considered the peak in any race.

Even in some races without Spirit-Concealing, they were existences like gods.

Therefore, on the Great Perfection of Void Returning, there naturally existed some strange characteristics.

For example, their blood fell and directly formed a blood-colored lake on the ground.

And the echo of the battle sound could even shatter a piece of land.

Fortunately, the formation here was solid, and under full operation, it protected the students within, not interrupting the insights of too many people.

Xu Qing here was also gaining insights; while watching intently, various thoughts emerged in his mind, combining with his own cognition, he had more understanding of Immortal Cultivators and God Cultivators.

"God Cultivators... have no techniques; the feeling they give is that everything seems to be instinct, as if this world was born for them. Within this world, He is free and unfettered."

"Immortal Cultivators are completely different; they are also using the power of this world, but the method is different from God Cultivators. They use rules and laws as threads to pull the power of heaven and earth."

"As if... enslaving heaven and earth!"

"With the Heavenly Dao?"

Xu Qing's eyes revealed a strange light, his thoughts churning; in this battle, he saw too many things worth deep thought.

"Once the Heavenly Dao emerges, it is like binding heaven and earth, drawing a boundary for the god!"

Xu Qing's heart shook; he did not know if his guess was correct.

But judging by his current judgment, this was logical.

If it was really like this, it also explained why the earliest batch of ancient immortals wanted to raise the Heavenly Dao belonging to cultivators after conquering the Wanggu Continent.

The Heavenly Dao was to allow future cultivators to cultivate better.

This also explained the reason for nurturing the Heavenly Dao in the Spirit-Concealing realm in the cultivator's cultivation system.

"Constantly replenishing the Heavenly Dao can keep this world in the hands of cultivators forever!"

"If it is really as I guessed, then this is an unprecedented shocking game, integrating the means of controlling the world into the cultivator's cultivation system."

"Such means, such spirit and layout..."

Xu Qing took a breath, feeling admiration for the earliest batch of ancient immortals, then he looked up, gazing at the firmament.

The sky of the Imperial Academy could not see the Remnant Face, but this did not affect Xu Qing's inner analysis.

"Every time the Remnant Face opens its eyes, the Heavenly Dao falls. The moment all Heavenly Dao are extinguished, this Wanggu Continent will once again become the world of gods."

"Also, although the Wanggu world is large, it is only an insignificant part of this starry sky. What does it look like... outside the Wanggu world?"

This was the first time Xu Qing had imagination about the outside of Wanggu.

"There exist Holy Lands there, and further away, it might be... the place where Li Zihua went, and also the place where the Purple Moon star is located."

Xu Qing closed his eyes, using his heart to perceive his Purple Moon star.

Very far, very far.

And just as Xu Qing closed his eyes to perceive, the battlefield in the firmament appeared with new changes.

This change came from Bai Xiaozhuo.

His body flashed out on a higher firmament, and the moment the Imperial Academy Principal killed him, he raised his hands and his head, as if worshipping the supreme place of the firmament.

"The Two-Yi Supreme Yang Qi melts the ancient eye of the god, becoming the light of the starry sky shining on Wanggu, falling as a projection into the domain of the god on earth."

"Respectfully name the Lord of the Sun, the sacred Candlelight of the universe's heavens."

"Descend the gate here!"

As soon as his words came out, the Imperial Academy space roared, the Imperial Capital heaven and earth shook, and a terrifying and indescribable vast power fell from the void, descending on the Imperial Capital, descending on the sky of the Imperial Academy.

In an instant, an illusory and blurred picture appeared on the firmament of the Imperial Academy.

It replaced the sky here, replaced the Dao here, and replaced everything here.

In that picture, one could vaguely see towering strange trees emitting rich divine fluctuations, see strange beasts with strong divinity, see ancient temples that were tall and indescribable, emitting the meaning of time.

One could see frozen seas, see gaseous mountain peaks, see humanoid strange clouds, see octopus-like living sun-moon-like spirits, and some giant birds, wings covering the sky and sun, whistling past.

They were huge, in various forms, tentacles twisted and entangled, bodies composed of mysterious and tough materials.

This was a world full of strangeness and mystery.

Unimaginable, extremely strange, and in the deepest part, one could see a shocking giant ball with a huge body, as large as ten thousand miles.

This ball was pitch black, covered with countless tentacles, constantly wriggling, and in a half-squinted eye, strange light flickered, as if it could see through time and space.

The sound coming from the sphere was low and loud, like thunder rolling in the clouds.

With its wriggling, the whole world was trembling, the earth was shaking, the ocean was churning, and the sky was burning.

Furthermore, on the surface of the black sphere, countless faces emerged, all singing, shouting the same words as Bai Xiaozhuo.

Divine power was overwhelming.

Even if it was just a picture, it made countless students in the Imperial Academy spit blood, and some even showed signs of alienation because of this. The Imperial Capital was the same, and for a time, the entire human Imperial Capital was shrouded in strong and domineering alien quality.

Countless people were instantly in an uproar, their hearts horrified.

All forces had their expressions changed greatly. The Human Emperor stood up, and the thirteen Heavenly Kings under his command all had their expressions changed, their auras all rising.

Xu Qing's expression also became heavy in an instant, staring fixedly at the projected world above Bai Xiaozhuo. Similar places, similar auras, he had felt once before.

"God Domain..."

In the Imperial Capital, in the ancestral hall of the Red Dust Forgetting Emotion Building, the mud fox statue enshrined in the shrine shook instantly, its head came alive in an instant, its eyes opened suddenly, gazing in the direction of the Imperial Academy.

"A strange God Domain!"

"The god born inside... no, this god... something is wrong!"

At the same time, a shocking aura erupted from the Great Emperor statue standing right in front of the Rainbow Bridge of the Imperial Palace.

The Great Emperor's eyes slowly opened, revealing the vicissitudes of eternity, and there was a clicking sound echoing. The Great Emperor's head slowly turned, finally looking at the Imperial Academy.

A low sound that surpassed heavenly thunder came out faintly at this moment.

"Hanging the sword on the blue sky, you move to test." ===== CHAPTER 758 =====
