Chapter 2591: Must Kill

The entire Netherworld Ancient Realm seemed to have fallen into a state of stillness.

At this moment, time no longer flowed, space solidified, rules ceased to move, even the Three Thousand Great Dao temporarily halted their operation, and everything in the universe seemed to have lost its meaning.

This tranquility appeared to have lasted for a long time, long enough to reach the era of endless ages.

This is a frozen painting.

In the painting, a blue-clad youth rests his hand on his sword hilt, his gaze calm, fixed on the distance, unknown what he is thinking.

His gaze seems joyful, seems regretful, heartbroken.

Regretting what?

Heartbroken over what?

Regretting that a flawless beautiful jade is forming, about to transform into the supreme treasure of the universe, yet he must prematurely harvest it due to various reasons.

Though he gained a temporary advantage, in the long run, it is a major loss.

Beside the blue-clad youth, a towering white bone nether phoenix opens its beak to the limit, its gaze grim and painful, its entire white bone nether immortal body pushed to the extreme, expression ferocious beyond compare, from this frozen scene one can feel its intense unwillingness emotional fluctuation, almost bursting out of the frame.

On the skull of the white bone nether phoenix, a small hole pierces through it.

Looking inside through the hole, highly concentrated end-law great dao sword qi, end-law great dao poison—this is something resembling a sect's forbidden core weapon, the end-law radiation dao poison, but even more terrifying, the natural enemy of immortal dao matter; any immortal dao matter tainted by even a trace of this end-law dao poison will instantly fall into aberrant mutation and destruction.

The end-law dao poison contained within the Taiqing Flying Sword is a more complex and terrifying thing.

This special end-law dao poison fuses the Great Sun Immortal-Mortal Sword Intent, sword qi, and the personal will of the sword cultivator, forming something even more terrifying, more spiritual and destructive; even the slightest trace can trigger all immortal dao beings in a thousand worlds to enter aberrant mutation and destruction, the spiritual veins of the entire thousand worlds collapse, the earth veins break, spiritual energy vanishes, transforming into other more inert forms.

Any minute trace is enough to achieve this.

How much end-law dao poison exists within the white bone nether phoenix's immortal body now?

Looking inward through the tiny hole in the white bone nether phoenix's skull, numerous end-law dao poisons surge and flow like water waves, rippling with tiny ripples, wildly surging and flowing within the immortal body of the Ancient Emperor of the Forbidden Zone, traversing, truly as vast as a stellar ocean, boundless and endless!

This is a single strike of burning oneself, meticulously planned by an Eight-Character Immortal Scripture Ancient Emperor!

This cannot even be called a saturated attack—it's completely like using a cannon to kill mosquitoes, wasteful or not irrelevant, you just go die, it doesn't matter.

"Somewhat regrettable,"

"If it weren't for the urgent need to execute the mastermind behind the scenes, to deter the emperors of the Forbidden Zone, and allow the Tai Shang Da Ri Zhu Mo Sword Array project of the Taiyuan Celestial Origin to proceed smoothly to completion, immortal dao friend, in fact, this sovereign now is unwilling to kill you."

Jiang Ding let out a low sigh.

Whether the Immortal Emperor is the mastermind behind the scenes is unimportant; what matters is that Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang believes he is, believes he is, then he should be.

The Flame Flow Sword Emperor and many spatial secret realm-recovering cultivators escorting the core critical components of the Taiyuan Celestial Origin Tai Shang Da Ri Zhu Mo Sword Array have lost them, causing massive damage to this cosmic-level super immortal array project, very likely leading to the failure of this immortal array project; the mastermind behind the scenes has extremely vicious vision, one strike causing massive destruction.

Jiang Ding had already anticipated this day hundreds of millions of years ago, thus prepared corresponding backups and fault tolerance, not hoping his plan would proceed completely smoothly without any mishap.

But!

This fault tolerance is very limited!

If events like the Flame Flow Sword Emperor happen two or three more times, the Taiyuan Celestial Origin Tai Shang Da Ri Zhu Mo Sword Array will inevitably fail!

This, Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang cannot accept.

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang has still not found the true mastermind behind the scenes; the Sun Ancient Emperor is merely suspected, only confirmed to have participated in part, the true source cannot be determined; this hidden enemy is very dangerous, hides very well, outstanding in causal plotting and concealment.

It is very possible that the Immortal Emperor and the Sun Ancient Emperor are both scapegoats of this hidden existence.

But, does this mean Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang has no way?

Can only rage helplessly?

No!

The Immortal Emperor here is merely a beginning, a beginning!

A resolve!

If the Taiyuan Celestial Origin Tai Shang Da Ri Zhu Mo Sword Array cannot be completed smoothly, he will kill them one by one, slay all the emperors of the Forbidden Zone, even if it causes tremendous waste, he will not hesitate!

You won't hide, will you?

You won't plot, will you?

I will slay you all, one by one, all of you!

My immortal array, must not be moved!

The Netherworld Ancient Realm solidified for a moment, then, under the fearful gazes of countless Netherworld Ancient Realm powerhouses and many Phoenix Immortal Clan Ancient Emperors, the Three Thousand Heavenly Dao and time once again resumed flow.

"Tai Shang Da Ri!"

"You, very good, very good————"

The Immortal Emperor let out a grim, piercing howl.

His body tore open from the center, a nether immortal soul entwined with the great dao runes of humans, hell, asuras, and hungry ghosts flew out from his completely deceased immortal body, head not turning, dissipating into the starry sky, vanishing in an instant, leaving no trace.

Clearly, the nether immortal soul of this Immortal Emperor still retained a strong aura of the Great Sun Immortal-Mortal Sword Intent; the Taiqing Flying Sword, which slays immortal bodies and also slays immortal souls, even if it slays the Immortal Emperor's entire immortal body, the remaining power still slashes into his immortal soul; the terrifying and vicious sword intent is rapidly spreading, aiming to utterly destroy his immortal soul.

Even so, the Immortal Emperor's immortal soul still vanished instantly, mysterious and unfathomable.

"Troublesome."

"One sword, yet unable to slay."

Jiang Ding lightly sighed.

In his words, there was no regret, as if he had already seen the result—the Immortal Emperor dying by his hand.

Boom!

Boom boom boom————

At the same time, countless terrifying booms came from many star fields in the Boundless Starry Sky, killing intent filling the Boundless Starry Sky.

One after another, Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors instantly revived, without any delay, immediately forming a heavy, chaotic great array toward the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang in the Netherworld Ancient Realm, killing came, decisive to the extreme, clearly aware of the mutual dependence of lips and teeth, they would not allow Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang to break them one by one during this dangerous time.

Their reaction was too fast!

In an instant, a great array resembling the primordial chaos of the universe, as if heaven and earth were just opened, had already formed—this is truly a cosmic-level immortal array, the main array formed by many Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors, its power not inferior to, and even surpassing, the Taiyuan Celestial Origin Tai Shang Da Ri Zhu Mo Sword Array in theory.

As many as twenty Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperors chose to kill toward Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang!

The one who attacked and killed the master of the formation was none other than the Nine-Leaf Sword Emperor.

"Hahaha!"

"Tai Shang Da Ri! Your demon sword Dao, I have fully comprehended it! Truly profound, hahaha—hahaha—"

"Nine characters reverse the eight, how greatly does Heaven favor the solitary one?"

The Nine-Leaf Sword Emperor's face twisted into a grotesque, ferocious grin as he laughed maniacally, wielding the power of the Chaotic Immortal Formation, which sprouted into countless lush, dripping primordial weeds that surged toward Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang.
