Chapter 2144: Sword Slays the True Dragon Son in Past Time

The Sword Immortal's sword repels a great enemy!

He gradually accumulated a terrifying momentum of the Sword Dao, and this stretch of starry sky was filled everywhere with the whispers of the Law-Destroying Sword Dao, making the many human Sword Cultivators watching the battle surge with emotion, unable to restrain themselves.

The death knell of the Innate Fate Great Dao of this era is tolling!

"The ignorance and arrogance of Sword Cultivators!"

"Delusional fantasies!"

"How has this Sovereign been defeated?"

The Fate True Dragon Son gave a cold, sinister smile.

On his body, one could not see any emotional dejection or desperate struggle beneath the decline; instead, he was always brimming with confidence, as if the future of certain victory lay right before his eyes.

Hum!

Between the True Dragon Son's thoughts, the entire Ten Thousand Dragons Sovereign Heaven trembled, and then layer upon layer of golden Fate True Flames manifested.

The Ten Thousand Dragons Sovereign Heaven and the Ten Thousand Dragons Palace were burning!

The immortal Dao miracle built by countless living beings over millions of years was burning; the great Fate fire shot straight up into the Nine Heavens, shaking the firmament, and inexhaustible Fate power ceaselessly converged toward the Fate True Dragon Son, causing his injuries to heal at flying speed and his aura to climb exponentially, instantly becoming terrifying to the extreme.

The True Immortal's power seemed boundless, inexhaustible!

This could not help but make living beings tremble with fear; no one could see the True Immortal's limit—there was never any boundary—always possessing the power to suppress the endless starry sky.

"Stubbornly obstinate."

"Some laughable things cannot extend the time before you die in battle."

Jiang Ding shook his head slightly, feeling regret.

He regretted that his opponent could not see reality, always clinging to some illusory, unreal fantasies.

Clang!

Jiang Ding gripped the Taiqing Flying Sword, standing amidst layer upon layer of the Law-Destroying Great Dao, and struck out with a single sword.

The sword light instantly froze heaven and earth, causing dozens of star domains to pause.

Within the star domain, a streak of sword light suddenly appeared.

The instant this streak of sword light manifested, the time within the star domain suddenly plunged into a terrifying chaotic current, becoming in an instant countless myriad times more chaotic than before.

"Th-this, this is…"

Yuan Yi instantly widened his eyes round, his fingers trembling.

"Time!"

"Time! Time…"

Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou the Supreme, Seven Kill Sword Supreme, and other extremely powerful human Supremes felt dread in their hearts.

What did they see?

They saw a terrifying miracle manifesting between the star domains, and this miracle precisely avoided them, these mere ants, allowing them to gaze upon the battlefield of the miracle's creation with the transcendent eyes of outsiders.

It was time!

The time of the star domain was rewinding!

Under a single sword from the Sword Immortal, the time of the entire Heavenly Dragon Star Domain rewound; the cosmic river of stars Great Dao reversed; boundless matter flowed backward; the star domain's time suddenly rewound an extremely, extremely brief instant, returning to the past moment when the Sword Immortal struck at the Fate True Dragon Son with the Heaven Earth Human Sovereign Sword.

At this moment!

In this past time!

A terrifying streak of sword light crossed over from the future, striking together with the Heaven Earth Human Sovereign Sword at the past Fate True Dragon Son.

This was simply two Supreme Grand Sun Sword Immortals striking simultaneously!

The two were originally one body—a joint strike of the past and present Supreme Grand Sun Sword Immortal!

How perfectly coordinated, how terrifying would this be?

Dare one ask,

In this endless starry sky, who could receive the joint strike of two Supreme Grand Sun Sword Immortals?

Could the Fate True Dragon Son?

"No!"

"Impossible!"

"You cannot reverse this Sovereign's time!"

Terror appeared on the face of the past Fate True Dragon Son.

What did he see?

He saw the future Supreme Grand Sun Sword Immortal attacking him!

What was his future self doing?!!!

A waste!

Time seemed to slow down.

An extremely, extremely brief instant seemed like an entire lifetime.

Because living beings had begun to lay hands on the power of time, many things were no longer fixed—seemingly real, seemingly illusory—difficult to distinguish.

The Fate True Dragon Son heard a voice drift over faintly.

"Fellow Daoist,"

"Please appreciate this Sovereign's Sword Dao work—a work that has been born for two hundred thousand years yet never had anyone to appreciate it, and now finally awaits a living being qualified to appreciate it."

"This is the great fortune of a Sword Cultivator's life."

Jiang Ding said faintly: "This sword is named the Void-Suppressing Chaotic Ancient Sword!"

"This sword, together with the Grand Sun Void-Suppressing Time Sword, forms a paired set. These two swords originate from the immortal art Void-Suppressing, blending the wisdom and achievements of many human-inherited immortal arts. They take the Law-Destroying Great Dao, space, karma, the Five Elements, and so forth as their foundation, use Law-Destroying as their edge, and mobilize the power of time to slay enemies. They are this Sovereign's supreme Sword Dao work to date."

"Sword art research and development is not easy; it has cost much blood and sweat."

"I ask my Daoist friend to examine and appreciate it."

Clang!

As the words fell, the sword's hum lingered, pleasant and melodious.

"Kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill…"

The Son of the True Dragon of Fortune had no mind to answer, letting out a ferocious roar.

All the human cultivators watching the battle held their breath, looking at the battlefield from outside the flowing time.

They saw a scene they could not comprehend.

Past time and present time flickered and interwove, faintly visible.

In the past time, the Son of the True Dragon of Fortune burned himself, burned the nine armies of the True Dragon Forbidden Guards, the Immortal Dynasty's army turned to ash in swathes, the golden dragon of fortune's flesh and blood began to wither, the indestructible dragon soul began to run dry.

All of this power poured into the jade seal above his head, cracking it open, transforming it into the River Diagram and the Luo Script.

The Son of the True Dragon of Fortune held the River Diagram in his left hand and the Luo Script in his right, like the primordial sage-emperor who taught and transformed all races.

"By decree!"

"The Great Dao of Innate Fortune — Fortune-Extinction!"

The Son of the True Dragon of Fortune in the past time trod upon the Great Dao of Innate Fortune, burning himself as he roared ferociously, hoarse and desperate, like a beast fallen into a trap.

At the same time, in the flickering present-time scene, the present Son of the True Dragon likewise burned himself, the River Diagram and Luo Script likewise appearing in his hands, and he opened his mouth just as his past self had.

"The Great Dao of Innate Fortune!"

"Fortune-Extinction!"

"Fortune-Extinction! Fortune-Extinction! Fortune-Extinction…"

The past and present True Dragons' hoarse, desperate roars — at this moment they felt the ultimate cold, the fear living beings feel before death; no creature does not fear death.

In an instant, a great terror descended upon the Supreme Great Sun Sword Immortal.

"Fortune…"

Jiang Ding's heart lurched.

He looked back between the heavens and earth and the river of stars, and suddenly discovered that at some unknown moment he had entered a dead, silent darkness — no light at all, nothing at all, just this despairing darkness.

Beyond this, there was nothing.

In that instant, Jiang Ding suddenly understood what fortune was.

Fortune is the connection between living beings and the world.

Every living being must possess fortune; every living being must interact with the matter and energy of the world, and this leaves traces.

Once a living being's fortune vanishes completely, it means utter death.

The Great Dao of Innate Fortune, Fortune-Extinction!

This is a terrifying offensive technique — a being who wields the Great Dao of Innate Fortune forcibly erases all of a living being's fortune at a dreadful cost, a death-like strike!

Miraculous, invincible — this was the Son of the True Dragon's attack.

Absolutely no solution, a death-dealing technique!

"In this world,"

"There exists no death-dealing technique."

"The so-called death-dealing technique is no different from taking a blade to chop off an enemy's head and then declaring death certain — it merely places the result before the act."

The moment fear arose in Jiang Ding's heart, it was already slashed to extinction by the sword soul. He said calmly: "Before a death-dealing technique can be unleashed, this lord's sword has already severed all things."

"This is the fact that is happening right now."

Sword cultivators are this arrogant.

He was not guessing, but stating a fact — the fact of certain victory.
