Chapter 2745: Swallowing the Fifth Golden Great Age: Immortal Dao Wisdom

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's sword returned to its sheath, he took a step forward and arrived at the Ziwei Ancient Realm of this era.

This place remains the center of the Wu Jin Kong Kong, closest to the Nine Heavens, the highest in terms of dimensional concept; observing the Wu Jin Kong Kong from here grants a higher vantage, looking down upon it, making the analysis of the myriad mysteries of the Wu Jin Kong Kong's three thousand great Dao much easier.

This is where the laboratory of the future Immortal Dynasty is established.

At the place where the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable died, that tiny humanoid creature collapsed and dissipated, then heaven and earth trembled, cosmic waves surged without cease, the myriad stars of the heavens fell into chaos, centered on the point where the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable died, space expanded, myriad rules and Dao powers were released, sweeping across all directions with violent winds and towering waves, the coordinates of myriad worlds and billions of stars in the Wu Jin Kong Kong shifted and changed.

Woo—woo…

Woo—woo—woo…

Heaven and earth wept, blood rained from the sky!

The Wu Jin Kong Kong of this era lacked a vast expanse, the blood rain poured down in torrents, dark winds howled furiously, heaven and earth knew no rest; the people of the Seventh Golden Great Age had never witnessed such a mighty blood rain, such a blood rain would persist for a million years before gradually fading.

"The demise of the Lord of the Golden Great Age…"

Taiyang Ancient Huang and the others held their breath, gazing toward the place where the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable died.

There, as layer upon layer of space was pushed aside, a profound Immortal Dao black hole emerged, within it an unknown amount of matter, an unknown amount of rules, an unknown amount of Dao authorities accumulated, emitting an aura of utmost terror, having gathered far too much tangible and intangible Immortal Dao substance, becoming a natural black hole.

This is the true form of the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable!

His humanoid shape was merely his habit and past history; this Immortal Dao black hole is his real body. This is why this three-character Immortal Scripture Ancient Huang, clearly only of the three-character rank, shares the same rank as over twenty other Immortal Dynasty powerhouses like Taiyang Ancient Huang, yet his strength far surpasses theirs, reaching an inconceivable degree.

This is the reason.

The Yan Fa Immortal Venerable devoured all the spiritual energy, matter, rules, and anything else devourable in the Fifth Golden Great Age—this is what is called defying heaven and earth by principle!

The true form of the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable is nothing short of a terrifying powder keg about to explode!

Without the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's personal restraint, this entity, having gathered too much matter, spiritual energy, and rules, must inevitably expand outward, restoring the Wu Jin Kong Kong to its former state.

However, the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's true form has not changed; it remains an Immortal Dao black hole as before.

Taiyang Ancient Huang and the others examined closely, finally discovering at the upper edge of the Immortal Dao black hole, where the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's skull once lay, a Qingming flying sword.

This Qingming flying sword was deeply nailed into the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's skull, piercing his soul, destroying all vitality.

No, such a description is inaccurate.

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang would not lightly waste such an excellent specimen.

This sword precisely pierced the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's Dao essence, destroying it, then sealing it, maintaining him in a state between life and death.

"Change formation!"

"Spear of the Dharma-Ending Stars!"

The General Staff of the Time Dimension Expedition Fleet transmitted new orders once again.

Om!

The fleet's military formation trembled without cease.

Each ancient emperor commanded their military formation to shift; the phantom of the Dharma-Ending Age descended once more, as myriad stars of the Dharma-Ending Age were strung by the emperors into black spears with chains, wielded by Taiyang Ancient Huang, Beidou Ancient Emperor, and other three-character Immortal Scripture Ancient Emperors, each projecting into the Immortal Dao black hole.

The corpse of the Lord of the Fifth Golden Great Age was deeply pierced by chain-linked spears into his flesh, then the fleet rumbled into motion, forcibly dragging this fleshly body toward the direction of the Ziwei Ancient Realm's heavenly court, slowly pulling it along.

From afar, this is a somewhat heart-stopping scene.

Immortal Dynasty fleets sailed along high-dimensional high-speed passages; behind these fleets, straight black chains dragged a terrifying Immortal Dao black hole, as if dragging the entire immensely glorious Immortal Dao civilization corpse of the Fifth Golden Great Age through the starry void.

Vast blood rain battered the Immortal Dao black hole, battered these fleets, yet could not change anything.

At this moment, all Lords of the Golden Great Ages turned their gaze toward the Fifth Golden Great Age.

They saw that the figure long present in the Fifth Golden Great Age had vanished, his trace disappeared from the river of time, even the memory of the Fifth Golden Great Age's Lord left in the mortal realm gradually blurred, losing the ability to anchor in high-dimensional time—this all made one's scalp tingle.

More than ten Lords of the Golden Great Ages fell silent for a moment.

Then, they unconsciously quickened their pace of conquest; after some more days, it should soon be that another Lord of the Golden Great Age will again vanish from high-dimensional time.

The struggle for supremacy in high-dimensional time is just this cruel.

The strong swiftly gain victory, the weak swiftly perish, there is no stalemate, fierce contention, the outcome of war's victory or defeat was already determined at the very moment each Golden Great Age's limit Dao fruit formed.

…

After several hundred years, the Immortal Dynasty fleet finally dragged the Immortal Dao black hole formed from the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable's corpse to the Ziwei Ancient Realm.

This place has already changed greatly.

Under the great magic power refinement and construction of Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, the entire Ziwei Ancient Realm and the one hundred and eight ancient realms were thoroughly refined, colossal Immortal Dao instruments descended, even a marching version of the Great Dream Sword Realm appeared here; Immortal Dao scientists bustled about, continuously analyzing the Fifth Golden Great Age's various techniques, immortal arts, treasures, formations, materials, their souls overloaded in operation for who knows how many years.

Boom—

The Immortal Dynasty fleet dragged the Immortal Dao sun slowly down to land in the Ziwei Ancient Realm's laboratory; the many newly laid experimental support formations in the Ziwei Ancient Realm spread upward like silk and thread, enveloping the entire Immortal Dao sun, sealing it into a form more suitable for various Immortal Dao experiments.

"Fellow Daoists, you have worked hard."

"But now is not the time to rest; we are not the living beings of this era, time rejects us, now we can at most remain in the Fifth Golden Great Age for nine hundred and forty thousand years, time is extraordinarily precious."

Jiang Ding looked toward the myriad ancient emperors and said with a smile: "This expedition, how much we gain does not depend on victory or defeat, but on whether we can, within nearly a million years of time, draw out the entire Immortal Dao civilization of the Fifth Golden Great Age and then incorporate it into our Immortal Dao system, letting our Immortal Dao advance further!"

"Only then is it complete."

As for various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they are not so important, for these substances are things from past time; bringing them to posterity incurs enormous cost.

This is the main reason Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang does not fully agree with the Dao law of defying heaven and earth.

Even if the Yan Fa Immortal Venerable fortuitously defeated a Lord of the Golden Great Age, this does not mean he could, like a tiger among sheep, charge into another era, gulp down another Golden Great Age's myriad heavenly principles, stacking two eras' heavenly principles to grow stronger—this completely violates the orderliness of the river of time, it is a paradox.

The most precious spoil in the Time Dimension War is the Immortal Dao wisdom of another Golden Great Age era!

These wisdoms, for the Dao law of defying heaven and earth, may not have much effect; the unsustainability of this path is too strong.
