Chapter 1473: This Lord Is the Eye of the Illusion Formation

Jiang Ding gazed at the two Path-Combining Divine Lords, a hint of regret stirring in his heart.

'As I expected, I don't have much talent for illusion arts.'

'If Immortal Butterfly were here, he could probably kill these two silently with illusion alone, right?'

'In the end, I still have to draw my sword and charge in…'

He thought silently to himself.

Around them, layer upon layer of Six Paths worlds sealed off the four directions, cutting off all communication between inside and outside, shielding the gazes of the many cultivators of the Blood Bone Skeleton clan, letting them continue their normal garrison of the Minor Thousand Worlds without stirring up any chaos.

"Go!"

Blood Bone Divine Lord and Dark Soul Divine Lord growled in low voices.

They erupted with their full magic power, their bodies merging respectively into the Blood Dao rules and Soul Dao rules of the Heavenly Dao law-net, vanishing in an instant.

These two Path-Combining Divine Lords hadn't even made a probe — they had just fled outright like this!

Soon, the spot was empty, nothing to be seen.

A gust of wind blew past, leaving only a green-robed youth standing there in a daze, a row of black dots popping up above his head, and a crow flying past, cawing "Ah ah ah—"

"Two seniors,"

"How could you do this?"

Jiang Ding blinked, saying: "This is bros' first time facing Path-Combining Divine Lords head-on. Bros is just a Void Refinement cultivator, and you just ran?"

"Does that make sense?"

"Is this the self-awareness a strong cultivator of the immortal Dao should have?"

"This is really too much bullying!"

He fumed, took a deep breath, gently closed his eyes, pressed his hand on the sword hilt, and rested his eyes to gather his spirit.

Several dozen breaths later.

On the horizon, two more streaks of escape-light fused with the Heavenly Dao rule law-net flew in from afar. They once again saw the green-robed youth, and their expressions turned somewhat horrified.

"Ghost hitting a wall…"

Blood Bone Divine Lord murmured.

The two still refused to engage in battle. They exchanged a glance, gritted their teeth, switched direction, and continued fleeing into the distance, simultaneously employing divine sense secret arts to shake the surroundings. The net of Heavenly Dao rules churned the starry sky into utter chaos, void collapsed, rules shattered, raising a tremendous commotion.

Ghost hitting a wall was, after all, just a minor art.

How could two Path-Combining Divine Lords not know this?

They attacked wildly in all directions, hoping to find a flaw in the Ghost Hitting a Wall art amid these attacks, and forcibly tear apart this illusion formation to escape.

The Blood Bone Skeleton and Ghost clans were but minor races within the realm domains — preserving themselves was paramount. Why charge to the frontlines for those powerful races, only to die and have their clans annihilated?

The rumbling sounds of space shattering never ceased.

The two Path-Combining Divine Lords launched a frenzied assault within this stretch of heaven and earth. The starry sky boiled into chaos, plowed back and forth several times.

Such terrifying attacks could even shatter the boundary wall of a Minor Thousand World, trigger

an ecological catastrophe within the world, and truly wound the world itself.

Although this would draw the world's malice upon themselves and their clans, bringing about extremely dreadful consequences.

Yet, even under such attacks, the two Path-Combining Divine Lords still could not break free of the cycle and walk out of this world.

Yes, after breaking through one layer of Illusion Realm, they entered another layer of the Illusion Realm world.

The various spells, terrifying enough to destroy the boundary walls of a Minor Thousand World, had at least ninety percent of their power landing on empty air — shattering the void, tearing apart the Heavenly Dao rule law-net, yet unable to shake the foundation of this illusory world.

"No good,"

"This is wrong!"

"The cosmic star sea is so vast that even dozens or hundreds of Path-Combining cultivators attacking, landing on empty air, cannot change anything!"

Blood Bone Divine Lord growled in a low voice: "We must find the formation eye!"

"Find the formation eye, break the formation eye!"

"Otherwise, we will be trapped and die here, never able to escape!"

"The formation eye is at…"

Almost in an instant, the two Path-Combining Divine Lords whirled around abruptly, looking toward the layered formation patterns, the flow paths of rule power, the convergence center of layer upon layer of rules.

And, the green-robed youth standing at that center!

This — was the formation eye!

There was no concealment whatsoever. This was clearly the formation eye, the world's center, the core of the illusion formation.

"It seems this battle cannot be avoided."

Blood Bone Divine Lord's killing intent surged like blood.

He stared fixedly at that green-robed youth, closing in step by step.

"This old man pledges his head on it — there is absolutely no fleet of the Eastern Extreme Demon Sect nearby!"

"A mere Void Refinement sword cultivator, and he dares use this old man as a whetstone? He's seeking death…"

Behind him, ghostly wraiths filled the sky. Hundreds of millions of various fierce ghosts emerged, blanketing one side of the heavens, their wailing and mournful shrieks piercingly shrill. Blood Dao rules and Soul Dao rules intertwined, birthing some eerie transformation — as if the fierce ghosts had gained physical bodies — terrifying beyond measure.

The Eastern Extreme Demon Sect — who didn't know the name of the Great Sun Sword Son?

However, even though his talent was supreme, surpassing the Dao Sons of the Ancient God Domain by far, at most he could only be comparable to an early-stage Path-Combining cultivator. Without the Eastern Extreme Demon Sect fleet to back him up, what was there to fear?

They had fought their way here, never weaklings among those of the same level. How could they truly fear a junior of a lower realm?

Killing intent filled the sky, freezing rules with ice. Two vast pressures descended like mountains, pressing down, firmly locking onto that formation eye — that green-robed youth.

"Two seniors,"

"You've finally decided to come over?"

Jiang Ding opened his eyes, swept his gaze over the two Path-Combining Divine Lords, and felt a slight regret: "You dawdled a bit too long. Your magic power and divine sense have dropped by roughly one-tenth or so

?? was not at peak condition, leaving a slight flaw in this battle."

"However, it doesn't matter."

"This Sovereign is a tolerant and magnanimous cultivator, and I do not intend to blame you."

Clang!

The Taiqing Flying Sword unsheathed!

A crisp, pleasant sound of a sword being drawn echoed throughout the four corners of the universe.

In the Six Paths World, strands of Solar Sword Dao rules surfaced, linking into a net, gathering the momentum of heaven and earth across hundreds of thousands of kilometers of starry sky—sun, moon, and starlight—while the nets of rules undulated like mountain ranges, their radiance flickering.

Within the net of Solar Sword Dao rules, a resplendent, endless Great Sun of Sword Dao rose into the air.

Its radiance was boundless; it bloomed with billions of beams of light. Every single beam was a streak of golden sword qi, imbued with ultimate sharpness and searing heat, piercing through the void of the universe, piercing through billions of ghostly soul dark clouds, causing the wailing ghosts and fierce spirits manifested by the Dark Soul Divine Monarch among them to shriek miserably before collapsing and vanishing.

As billions of beams of light bloomed, the Blood Dao Rules Heavenly Dao Net and the Soul Dao Rules Heavenly Dao Net teetered on the brink of collapse.

"This…"

"This is impossible!"

Blood Bone Divine Monarch's Dao heart wavered, and he cried out involuntarily.

He could not believe what was unfolding before his eyes.

A mere mid-stage Void Refinement cultivator—merely revealing his pressure, merely at the instant the sword left its sheath—had caused the Blood Dao Rules Heavenly Dao Net he had honed for tens of thousands of years to be shaken to the point of collapse.

No desperate struggle, no ultimate sublimation, no burning of essence and blood—just an ordinary sword strike, plain and unremarkable.

Is this a Heavenly Prodigy?

A Heavenly Prodigy?!

This is clearly a ferocious dragon that has crossed realms to descend upon us!

In the history of the Ancient God Domain, such an existence has never appeared. "Heavenly Prodigy" originally carried the meaning of a junior, signifying outstanding brilliance among juniors, looking down upon those of the same level. The most outstanding Dao Child in history was only barely able to contend against a Dao Merging cultivator.

Even so, that was enough to leave a name in the annals of history, drawing the attention and wariness of many forces.

And now, an even more terrifying existence—one that brings complete despair to those of the same level—has appeared!

Under the horrified gazes of the two Dao Merging Divine Monarchs, within the Solar Sword Dao Rules Net, the blazing sun rose, climbing into the high sky, and then slowly descended.

The light of destruction tore through layer upon layer of Blood Dao Rules and Soul Dao Rules nets, breaking through continuously, dissolving all that stood in its way, and then enveloped the two Dao Merging Divine Monarchs who held renown even within their realm domains.

Endless destructive sword qi erupted, annihilating everything.
