Chapter 2281: Sword Cultivators Go to Slaughter, Satisfying the Sword Maiden's Curiosity

The envoys of the immortal sect did not know that upon entering the Ten Thousand Clan Celestial Court, three gazes silently watched them, wondering what they were thinking.

"Wanfa, do you think now is the time to attack the Celestial Court?"

The Maiden of Heavenly Weaving in the Dao of Matrimony asked softly.

Matrimony is like a red thread, coming from the unseen void, falling between every sentient being; where sentient beings exist in Shen Zhou, matrimony exists—this is the foundation of life's propagation.

This Dao is unassuming, lacking grand prestige, yet it penetrates everywhere.

One could say the Dao of Matrimony is extremely suited for infiltration; no one knows how many Matrimony Immortals' pawns lie hidden within the Supreme Solar Celestial Court, not even they themselves.

Many secrets of the Celestial Court are known to her.

"War..."

The True Immortal of Six Paths Reincarnation murmured amidst endless cycles of rebirth, her voice hazy and indistinct.

Now he seems to have restored his immortal form, recovering far faster than previously estimated—a tremendous success of the Three Realms Immortal Dao system, allowing him to acquire resources and comprehend the Dao far beyond before.

As Lord of the Underworld, the title of Earth Emperor granted him immense power.

He is the greatest beneficiary of the Three Immortals' Covenant.

"I do not know."

Wanfa True Immortal replied calmly.

"Do not know?"

The Maiden of Heavenly Weaving expressed doubt.

"If we take the initiative to attack, we will face the Celestial Court's stellar domain grand formation; the Supreme Solar holds geographical advantage, and unless we possess vastly superior strength, success is unlikely."

Wanfa True Immortal was very patient.

"Then we shall simply hold our ground."

"The sword cultivators' desire to attack remains intensely strong."

The Maiden of Heavenly Weaving smiled faintly.

"Yet holding ground also brings harm."

Wanfa True Immortal said slowly: "The Supreme Solar possesses exceptional insight and a terrifying Immortal Dao education and cultivation system; as time passes, he will advance immensely on the Dao, and among his subordinates will arise numerous quasi-emperors, even... Nine Tribulations Supremes; his celestial troops' strength will grow endlessly."

"It is merely unknown whether, in Dao deduction, we three can match him, or even surpass him."

"If we can surpass him, continuing to delay and hold ground is perfectly fine."

Unknown.

This is a great unknown.

Even a True Immortal who has devoted a lifetime to deducing the Dao cannot decide in the face of the unknown, only able to choose one path among many random roads, thereby determining their own life and death.

"Supreme Solar..."

"Two fellow Daoists,"

"This person is extremely arrogant."

The Reincarnation True Immortal whispered: "He will let us wander to the limits of our Dao, to the extreme, and once he confirms our potential is exhausted, he will attack immediately."

"That point need not be worried about."

Although they had interacted only briefly, this True Immortal had gained profound understanding of the Supreme Solar Sword Immortal, spoken in a declarative tone.

At the same time, the Reincarnation True Immortal slightly tactfully expressed her stance.

He agrees to holding ground, to wait for change.

He has only just restored his Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal form; aided by the Three Realms Immortal Dao system, he still has vast room for improvement, and now launching war would be unwise for him.

Even if the Celestial Court wins now, his chance of obtaining the final fruit is not great.

Of course, due to the Three Realms Covenant, if the other two True Immortals reach consensus and support active offense, he must comply and cooperate.

The other two True Immortals then fell into silence.

No one knows how long passed.

"Hold ground."

"Wait."

Unexpectedly, the two True Immortals gave the same answer.

In the unseen depths, a faint sigh seemed to sound.

From the beginning, there was no so-called choice.

After thorough reform, the formation of the Three Great Dao established the Three Realms system; their power swelled rapidly, perhaps already surpassing the Supreme Solar Sword Immortal.

But can they surpass by a great margin, enough to launch a frontal assault on the Supreme Solar Sword Immortal, who sits entrenched in the stellar domain grand formation?

Few have confidence in this.

No one knows how terrifying the Supreme Solar Sword Immortal—originally the supreme being of this era—would be in his lair, surrounded by layer upon layer of formations.

Better than this, let us wait.

This sword madman will surely come seeking death at their strongest moment; no need to overthink.

…

Supreme Solar Celestial Palace.

"The Three Realms Immortal Dao system is very splendid."

"But I, the sovereign, have doubts."

"Those three Dao friends have long delayed showing any desire to attack, always like turtles—is this a sign their potential is exhausted, they've hit a bottleneck?"

Jiang Ding sat cross-legged, awakening from Dao comprehension, opened his clear black-and-white eyes, and spoke lightly.

Before him, sword cultivators knelt on one knee in order, silently listening to the Sword Dao Sovereign's Dao sound, firm and silent as weathered boulders that have endured ages.

If a human sword cultivator entered here—even the greatest sword cultivator from past immortal dynasties—they would hold their breath, gazing with fervent excitement, fervent admiration, and humble reverence, bowing their heads.

Because here, the sword path stars shine brilliantly!

Great Sun Yang Mang Quasi-Emperor, Bury Heaven Quasi-Emperor, Seven Kill Quasi-Emperor, Great Sun Brightness Quasi-Emperor, Heavenly Dao Quasi-Emperor... and other peerless sword path prodigies are too dazzling!

Their sword path will is so intense!

Placing any one of them in any other immortal dynasty era would surely make them a top ten sword cultivator in Wu Jin Kong Kong; their sword talent and sword path will are too terrifying!

This era is an era of ultimate brilliance for sword cultivators!

Even in the Wan Fa Immortal Dynasty era, or other Emperor Immortal Dynasty eras, the number one sword cultivator of Wu Jin Kong Kong from that time, if placed here, would surely blend into the crowd, nothing remarkable.

The sword cultivators of this era possess opportunities, fortunes, educational environments, inheritances, sword-forging materials, and all kinds of advantages that can crush sword cultivators of other eras.

This is all-encompassing superiority.

This is the glorious Wu Jin Kong Kong Sword Cultivator Dynasty!

"Has their potential already been exhausted?"

"If exhausted, they should die; trash should not waste Wu Jin Kong Kong's resources, for they belong to this lord."

"If not exhausted, killing them would be too regrettable."

Jiang Ding Zi muttered, seeming hesitant.

"This lord is truly curious..."

Even he, upon the three true immortal maidens, saw only mist, unable to be omniscient.

This is the Sword Monarch's concern.

"Sword Lord!"

Great Sun Yang Mang Quasi-Emperor and others bowed their heads deeply, yet their eyes were full of scarlet killing intent and fervor.

"So,"

"Fellow Daoists."

Jiang Ding slowly said: "Go satisfy this lord's curiosity."

"Go attack, go slaughter, go slay all who resist on the front lines; if the myriad clans' heavenly court cultivators cannot resist you, then it shows they are weak, they have hit a bottleneck, they have lost value."

"If they are strong enough, they will naturally not die."

"This lord's curiosity is thereby satisfied."

The sword cultivators issued an order, carrying endless bloodshed.

A terrifying turmoil affecting countless star domains will occur; the strong will gain glory, the weak will lose their right to survive in such turmoil.

"Sword Lord!"

"We will immediately relieve your worries!"

Great Sun Yang Mang Quasi-Emperor, Seven Kill Quasi-Emperor, and other sword cultivators shouted their assent.
