Chapter 1410

The Blissful Union Sect guards the spatial passage, allowing no one to descend into the Chaotic Star Sea.

Translation: "Hehuan Sect, guard the Space Channel, do not allow anyone to descend into the Chaotic Star Sea!"

But need to keep quotes? The Chinese includes 「」 which are quotation marks. We can keep as quotes or not? Usually we keep the content without the Chinese quotes, but we can keep English quotes. The instruction: translate faithfully, not add or omit. The 「」 are punctuation; we can replace with English quotation marks. So output: 【"Hehuan Sect, guard the Space Channel, do not allow anyone to descend into the Chaotic Star Sea!"】 but we need to output 【1】 then translation.

Thus: 【1】 Hehuan Sect, guard the Space Channel, do not allow anyone to descend into the Chaotic Star Sea!

Make sure no extra punctuation beyond translation.

Thread after thread of intricate silk pursued the nine Heavenly Mandate Origins.

Translation: "Strands of intricate threads pursued the nine Heavenly Mandate Origins."

Xuanming Old Ancestor sneered, seemingly seeing through Dieyue's scheme: 'Dieyue, you intend to use this to divide the Heavenly Mandate Origins and continue controlling them across the four star realms—how could we possibly allow that?'

Translation: "Xuanming Laozi coldly snorted, as if seeing through Dieyue's scheme: 'Dieyue, you wish to use this to divide the Heavenly Mandate Origins, to continue controlling them across the four star realms—how could we possibly comply with your wishes?'"

Translation: "They took the lead, directly sealing the three Heavenly Mandate Origins already seized by the Eternal Life Sect, the Guile Clan, and the Myriad Longevity Pavilion."

Translation: "These Dao resonances burst forth with divine light, as if dozens of stars linked together to form a mysterious Dao diagram, mighty enough to pierce the heavens, possessing the power to crush the withered and break the strong; the entire vault of the void became a sea of divine radiance."

Translation: "At the same time, Xuanming Laozi likewise attacked, the guile Dao roared, emitting a heart‑trembling power; at this moment myriad guile phantoms fell silent, each a massive form standing in the endless black mist."

Translation: "Xuanming Laozi also sacrificed several defiant‑heaven spiritual weapons; for a moment, the power of deathly stillness shrouded the vault of the void."

Translation: "He and Gu Yue Laozi each occupied a side—one a sea of divine splendor, the other an endless dark night—but both were mighty Dao killing intent, and in an instant all surged downward to bombard Dieyue."

Translation: "Dieyue's exquisite face remained cold, her jade hand continually shifting; though she had lost the Heavenly Mandate Origins, her aura did not diminish."

Butterfly metamorphosis! Nirvana!

This is the third eye killing technique!

Dieyue's form suddenly turned into countless specks of starlight, then transformed into a colossal mulberry-tree butterfly apparition, its form immensely huge, spanning the zenith of the void, nearly occupying the entire starry sky; its two eyes were like the Chaotic Star Sea, the power of time and the power of dreams surging like a sea.

This butterfly radiated scarlet Divine Light from its whole body; its wings fluttered, and an unsurpassable Dao storm surged forth.

—hiss!

Rolling torrents of aura poured down from the zenith of the void, filling the sky with lethal intent of time.

And the power of dreams!

Boom—boom!

The offensive power of the four ancient ancestors collided in an instant, and the terrifying tremors made even the Threefold Heaven Gate seem on the verge of collapsing.

At this moment, the power of dreams was formless and traceless; even as strong as Gu Yue Laozi, Profound Ice Ancestor and the others actually showed a brief hesitation.

In that very instant, Dieyue's power of time arrived in a flash; in the span of a breath, numerous sealing forces descended, layer upon layer intertwining upon the four ancient ancestors.

But the four quickly reacted, each slamming down with a great palm, hoping to overturn these seals.

"Dieyue, without the Heaven‑mandated origin, how could you possibly seal us?"

Dieyue's mulberry-tree apparition fluttered; in an instant, the Threefold Heaven Gate and the four major star realms of the Chaotic Star Sea began to roar, the four star realms emanating tremendous divine might like heavenly-defying Spiritual Weapons.

Gu Yue Laozi furrowed his brows, "Wind, forest, mountain, fire?"
