Chapter 1414: The Flashy, Non-Mainstream Youth

Amidst hundreds of millions of divine generals, the old ancestor of the Heavenly Palace, the Divine Lord of Heaven renowned across the entire Ancient God Domain for his fearsome might, was like an unmatched war general of the immortal Dao, charging forward without hesitation, not caring in the slightest even when facing billions of enemies, plunging straight into the fray.

At this moment, his expression stiffened, and he turned his head to look deep into the formation of the Hidden Heaven Pavilion.

In just an instant, at the very moment the ten Dao Sons of the Ancient God Domain and the ten Dao Sons of the Nine Spirit Domain began to clash, a terror, an incredulity, an utter absurdity instantly swept through the dozens of Dao-Unification Divine Lords of the Ancient God Domain.

In that instant, they even began to suspect they were hallucinating.

The Hidden Heaven Pavilion still had unknown formations, distorting their divine sense and gaze, showing them absurd, laughable, utterly nonsensical scenes.

Under the deathly stare of the dozens of Dao-Unification Divine Lords of the Ancient God Domain, the battle of Dao Sons within the Hidden Heaven Pavilion instantly plunged into its most ferocious slaughter.

After the Dao Son of Brother Brother Xuanwu.

The Dao Son of Tianji made his move; within the world of fate's order, an ordinary divination chip flew out, suppressing the Dao Son of Tianyun, forcing him to burn his essence blood and flee.

The Qingmuxian Sect Dao Son Ji Liuyue lightly swayed an emerald branch in her hand, frail and boneless, seemingly barely able to push aside a gentle breeze.

Yet, when this emerald branch fell into the world-order domain of the Dao Son of Qinggu of the Qinggu Immortal Sect, it instantly became an ancient primordial tree, its branches slamming down like azure dragons, instantly shattering the Dao Son of Qinggu's life-order world.

The breathtakingly beautiful Dao Son of Qinggu had her lower body smashed directly into a pulp of blood and flesh; she trembled in terror, her broken divine soul wrapping around her half-torn body as she fled madly.

The Dao Son of Shadow Demon and the Dao Son of No Light hid within the void, impossible for anyone to detect.

But in just an instant, the Dao Son of No Light let out a wretched shriek, his ink-like body split in two from the brow by a sword of shadow, the terrifying order of shadow tearing apart his entire body, leaving only a divine soul wailing as it fled, like an ant, utterly powerless to resist.

The Dao Son of Five Elements, An Tuzi, the Dao Son of Dan Cauldron, the Dao Son of Shangqing Spiritual Treasure…

Their methods differed, their temperaments differed, some merciful, some brutal, but one thing was exactly the same: their opponents, the Dao Sons of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Ancient God Domain, were all defeated in a single strike!

Not a single Dao Son of the Ancient God Domain could match the Dao Sons of the Nine Spirit Domain evenly, not even for a single move.

Defeated in one strike, dead in two!

This was the strength of the Dao Sons of the Nine Spirit Domain; the Dao Sons of the Ancient God Domain understood this clearly, so they were all burning their essence blood in mad flight, desperate flight, without a shred of fighting spirit.

Several Dao Sons had tears streaming down their faces, no longer possessing any of the spirited pride of a domain's heaven-chosen, weeping in anguish, their Dao hearts on the verge of shattering.

"The juniors' Dao Son foundations have already been supplemented…"

"Already supplemented."

"Already…"

The Divine Lord of Tianyun stared fixedly at the scene before him.

The nails of his palms dug deep into flesh and blood; his Dao-Unification-grade law-body shattered, threads of fresh blood gushing out, dripping into the starry sky of the domain, yet he felt nothing at all.

He kept calculating in his heart, kept calculating.

As a Divine Lord of the Tianji Dao, a Divine Lord who inherited the lineage of the upper realm's immortal sects, his attainments in the Dao of Tianji were exceedingly profound, unrivaled in the Ancient God Domain.

Everything that had occurred within a timeframe of several months was as clear as the lines of a palm; nothing that had happened could escape the gaze of his Tianji Eye.

Now, it was still the same.

Within the Divine Lord of Tianyun's divine soul, using his sect's Mi Fa, he calculated scene after scene: the Dao Son of Tianyun easily defeated the Dao Son of Tianji, his foundation was supplemented, and his future gained a few more possibilities above Dao-Unification.

Not a single error.

The entire process of calculation was reasonable, correct, perfect, without a single error.

On the Dao of Tianji, one could no longer find a case more correct, more perfect than this result; it could be perfectly recorded into the Scripture Pavilion of the Tianyun Immortal Sect for later Dao Sons to contemplate and study.

Everything was flawless, utterly correct.

Except for one thing.

It had nothing whatsoever to do with reality.

What was the Dao Son of Tianyun doing in reality?

He was being hunted by the Dao Son of Tianji, unable to escape even after burning his essence blood and divine soul.

He would die in three moves, in two-point-one ten-thousandths of a breath, because he refused to submit, believing there was still hope, unwilling to obey the rules in his sect's inheritance and bow to the victor, unwilling to give up his hope of Dao-Unification.

"Wah!"

The Divine Lord of Tianyun suddenly spat out a large mouthful of essence blood, scattering across the sky and earth, his body's aura plummeting sharply.

"Haha!"

"Hahaha… the foundation has already been supplemented… hahaha… my sect's Dao Son has already supplemented his foundation… already… hahaha… already…"

Blood tears flowed from the Divine Lord of Tianyun's eyes, weeping and laughing at once.

His two eyeballs were a treasured secret artifact of the Tianyun Immortal Sect, named the Pupils of Tianyun, reputed to be able to observe the fortune of heaven and earth as easily as viewing the lines of a palm.

At this moment, both pupils suddenly shattered, mixing with fresh blood and fragments of eyeball flesh as they flowed down, dripping onto the ground, leaving only two terrifying bloody holes on his face, with blood flowing ceaselessly.

He was already blind.

No, perhaps long ago, before the Jiudaxian Sect of the Nine Spirit Domain had even appeared in the Ancient God Domain, this pair of Pupils of Tianyun had already been blind.

"Why are the Dao Sons of the Nine Spirit Domain all like this…"

The voice of the Divine Lord of Qinggu was trembling, no longer elegant, beautiful, ethereal, and distant as a celestial being of life.

A sect's Dao Son is the future immor

tal ancestor of the sect!

Apart from a very few exceptions, the strength of a sect's Dao Son will be closely tied to the strength of the sect's ancestor; if the ancestor is strong, the Dao Son must necessarily be strong.

Conversely, if the Dao Son is strong, the ancestor must likewise be terrifyingly strong!

If the Dao Sons of the Nine Spirit Domain can defeat the Dao Sons of the Ancient God Domain of the same level in a single strike, then the ancestors of the Nine Spirit Domain sects can likewise defeat the ancestors of the Ancient God Domain sects of the same level in a single strike!

A gust of domain-gale ocean current blew over.

The ancestors of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Ancient God Domain instantly fell into an icy, bone-piercing chill, as if plunged into an ice cave, no longer possessing any anticipation or longing for the impending hunt, their whole bodies bristling.

They had, just now, seemed about to hunt such an existence alone?

The Divine Lord of Heaven of the Heavenly Palace, his battle intent piercing the heavens, piercing straight through the galaxy, as if he would single-handedly battle the entire Nine Spirit Domain, taking the enemy general's head amidst billions of troops?

No!

This world should not be like this!

The moment the Old Ancestor of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Ancient God Domain stepped out of the formation of the Cangtian Pavilion, his footsteps abruptly halted, and in an instant he returned at ten times the speed, once again hiding himself within the layers of formations, pressing tightly together with the dozens of Dao Merging Divine Monarchs of the Myriad Races Alliance and the Yao Shen Sect.

They were retreating.

However, those several billion star river fleets and the experts within them were not dead objects.

"Tian Shen Palace, Daoist Tian Shen…"

A great power of the Brother Xuanwu Heavenly Palace stepped forward and said slowly: "Please remain calm and continue to wait, wait for the juniors to finish exploring the Cangtian Pavilion, do not be so impatient."

"You should have patience."

He had the appearance of an old man with wild, disheveled hair, wearing a plain cloth robe — not as majestic and imposing as the unparalleled Divine General that was the Tian Shen Divine Monarch, yet he emanated an even more terrifyingly heavy pressure that suppressed the world, soothing the turbulent cosmic star rivers within hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Before him, the Tian Shen Divine Monarch — wearing a phoenix-wing purple-gold crown on his head, Jin Jia armor on his body, wielding a Fang Tian Painted Halberd in his hand, surrounded by formations of billions of Divine Generals — seemed to have become some non-mainstream youth.

Fierce in appearance, but in truth a hollow shell.

Hum!

At the same time, the military formations of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Nine Spirit Domain spread out, filling the space between heaven and earth, expanding to a range of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and — without any collateral damage — enveloped all the Dao Merging Divine Monarchs of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Ancient God Domain, the Dao Merging Divine Monarchs of the Myriad Races Alliance, the Dao Merging Divine Monarchs of the Yao Shen Sect… enveloped every single expert of the Ancient God Domain, sparing no one.

The military formations of the Jiudaxian Sect of the Nine Spirit Domain enveloped all.
