Protagonist:
Jiang Xuan
"In my name, sacrifice!"
Jiang Xuan roared like thunder, and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths shook violently.
The Eight Domains shattered, the mountains and rivers of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces surged backward, and the Wuliang Tianqiong tore open a hundred-li Void Crack.
Gray fog and killing intent soared into the sky, millions of remnant souls trampled the Star River. Severed hands and feet covered in blood, yet killing intent surged so high it made the stars tremble.
All were the heroic spirits who died in battle at the end of Xian Gu!
The name Pu Mo Wang alone makes people gnash their teeth. Back then, this Demon Head of Yi Yu devoured billions of living beings alive, and literally shattered a complete Tian Di into nine fragments.
The Immortal Kings who were gnawed until only half their bodies remained, the cultivators burned to charcoal by demonic fire—Tian Di remembers this blood debt!
At this moment, where Immortal King essence blood fell, blood rain poured for three full years.
Mountains and rivers wailed as if mourning their parents; Tian Di was holding a funeral for the Demon King Jiang Xuan was sacrificing!
At the end of Xian Gu, blood rain filled the sky, Pu Mo Wang stepped on mountains of corpses and laughed wildly, opening his mouth to suck billions of living beings into blood mist.
In that great war at the end of Xian Gu, Tianqiong cracked, Dadi sank, and the kings of Yi Yu joined hands to tear apart the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Mountains and rivers shattered, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths fell like rain.
Years flowed by, and the new generation of cultivators had long forgotten the tragedy of those days. But every inch of land still trembled, and foreign war spears remained lodged in the magma beneath the earth.
When Jiang Xuan smashed Pu Mo Wang's crimson Primordial Qi into the Void, the entire Heavenly Vault suddenly hung down a waterfall of blood.
This was not mourning the fall of a Demon Head, but Tian Di weeping bitterly for the heroic spirits!
Amidst the surging gray fog, countless remnant soul shadows appeared. Their armor was shattered, their bodies half-ruined, yet they all gazed in unison toward the direction of the Eight Domains.
In the blood rain, ten thousand dead souls silently clasped their fists in salute.
Some had bone spikes still stuck in their chests, some had only half a head left, but the remnant souls smiled at the corners of their mouths, turning into sparks of fire to return to Dadi.
Suddenly, the Master of the Forbidden Zone and others were tightly surrounded by Immortal Mist. In the blink of an eye, the Immortal Mist seemed struck by a force of Destruction of Heaven and Earth, exploding with a "Boom" into wisps that spread crazily toward the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
"Great ambition feasts on Yi Yu flesh!"
This roar carried endless tragic heroism, instantly wrapping the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in thick sorrow.
From towering snow peaks to the deep, dark seabed, all living beings in the World had their hearts and minds tightly gripped by this sorrow without exception.
However, the vast majority were like lost in fog; though their Inner Hearts were made sour by sorrow, they had no idea where this heaven-shaking phenomenon came from at all.
After all, everything in the World has its reason for existing and will not change for no reason.
But this phenomenon was so abrupt that people were caught off guard, with no clues to follow, as if it descended from Kong E, leaving them Puzzled.
Gaze turned to Bianhuang Diguan, as a gathering place for the strong of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, top experts of Jiaoren, Dun Yi Realm, and Zunzun Jing gathered here one after another.
At this moment, within Emperor Pass, streaks of gray light like evil shadows howling out from the depths of Jiuyou Diyu flew upward with a fierce Aura.
Due to the special terrain of Emperor Pass and the influence of Mysterious Force, the gray light beams here were not only astonishing in quantity, but the human figures faintly visible within the gray light were also denser, emitting a sinister and terrifying aura.
"Heavens! Quick look, what on earth is that!" A Dun Yi expert, eyes wide as copper bells, pointed at the gray light filling the sky, his voice trembling with terror.
"Something's wrong! Why do I suddenly feel a strong sense of unease, as if great disaster is upon us!" A Jiaoren expert frowned tightly, the spiritual power around his body involuntarily operating at high speed, ready for battle.
"Could... this be an omen of the Great Tribulation of Tian Di descending?" Someone in the crowd shouted in terror, and the emotion of fear spread rapidly like wildfire.
"The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are actually immersed in joy." In the deepest part of Emperor Pass, there was a quiet and dim meditation room, where a mysterious expert sat cross-legged, muttering in a low voice.
In an instant, his Eyes shot out two sharp rays of light, like lightning instantly dispelling the Darkness in the meditation room.
This expert had actually glimpsed part of the truth behind this strange phenomenon.
On the surface, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were shrouded in sorrow, but in reality, this Tian Di was cheering for some great event.
In the meditation room, the expert's gaze was like a torch, his hands quickly forming seals, Spiritual Power around his body surging crazily, using Full Power to deduce the root of all these changes.
Through some extremely Hidden channels, he learned that not only did Bianhuang Diguan have such phenomena, but above the Nine Heavens it was the same.
Even Shi Di, closely connected with the Nine Heavens, received similar news.
From this, he determined that this was definitely a shocking great change sweeping the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
However, as the deduction deepened, the mystery not only was not solved, but became increasingly perplexing.
In the end, he exhausted all his efforts, yet still gained nothing, leaving only confusion and unwillingness in his heart.
"Why is this? Could there be a terrifying Existence far beyond imagination arranging things in the dark?" In the meditation room, the expert's brow was tightly locked.
As the River of Time surged with rage, Jiang Xuan stood proudly within it, his robes fluttering around him, surging and flying like clouds hanging from the sky.
He raised his hand as if holding a peerless divine blade, cutting down one by one the Karma threads connecting the remnant souls of the three Masters of the Forbidden Zone to later generations. In an instant, blood radiance splattered across the sky, actually condensing strangely in the Void, transforming into a waning moon that wept and lamented.
Those severed Karma threads, as if unwilling to be severed, suddenly grew wildly in reverse, instantly turning into blood-colored vines, baring fangs and brandishing claws as they crazily entwined toward the upper reaches of the River of Time. Wherever they passed, Time twisted and deformed like shattered Glass, emitting "Crack, crack" sounds of being unable to bear the weight.
"Brat, how dare you!" A roar shook the River of Time, raising layers of terrifying ripples.
Only to see three blurry Figures rushing over on the waves. The leader wore an emperor's crown, majestic and awe-inspiring. Behind him slowly emerged the majestic shadow of Jiuzhong Tianque, emitting a heart-pounding majestic pressure. He was precisely the Immortal King Giant of the end of Xian Gu who held the Reincarnation Disk.
His fingertips pointed like flowing light at Jiang Xuan's brow. In an instant, the Reincarnation Great Dao roared, and the shadows of billions of living souls, like fierce ghosts breaking free from cages, surged out from the Reincarnation Disk, carrying endless resentment, wanting to drag Jiang Xuan alive into the eternal Reincarnation of ten thousand calamities from which there is no return.
Jiang Xuan's expression was cold and stern, a disdainful cold smile curved at the corner of his mouth. Suddenly behind him appeared an ancient and majestic Eight Trigrams Furnace.
Runes flashed all over the Eight Trigrams Furnace, the furnace lid lifted, and a blazing Flame spurted out, like a towering wave, surging to impact the power of the Reincarnation Disk, actually shaking it apart.
Immediately after, he flicked his finger lightly, and four Sword Qis howled out from his fingertips, like Pangu's Axe that opened Heaven and Earth, instantly slashing out a terrifying bottomless abyss in the River of Time.
On both sides of the abyss, countless images flashed by quickly like slides, all being world-shaking silhouettes of the three Masters of the Forbidden Zone in various Eras.
On the Shengu Zhanchang, they had the posture of slaying immortals, with invincible and fierce power; at the end of Xian Gu, guarding Emperor Pass alone, fighting against tens of thousands of Yi Yu experts, there was loneliness and Tragic Heroism.
"Since Karma is severed, what fear is there of Reincarnation?" Jiang Xuan's voice was like a great bell, Resounding Through Heaven and Earth.
He reached out as if taking something from a bag, steadily grasping three of the most brilliant Soul Fragments. They were the precious Primordial Qi marks left behind by the Master of the Forbidden Zone when breaking through to the Immortal King Realm.
He slowly integrated this fragment containing endless profound mysteries into those three skulls. In an instant, strange light flickered on the surface of the skulls, and one complex and profound Dao Pattern after another emerged; each and every pattern seemed like the most ancient characters between heaven and earth, corresponding to a Great Emperor's supreme Authority.
Seeing this wondrous sight, the Star Light on the branches all over Liu Shen's body flourished greatly, and in this fleeting moment she actually evolved her own Dao of Reincarnation within her comprehension; wisp after wisp of mysterious aura spread out from between her branches and leaves.
Abruptly, the entire River of Time seemed to encounter a catastrophic disaster, trembling violently; countless chaotic currents of time and space, like evil dragons that had broken free of their shackles, bared fangs and brandished claws as they frantically lunged toward Jiang Xuan.
Yet Jiang Xuan did not fear in the slightest; the light of the Eight Trigrams Furnace behind him flourished greatly, and as the furnace body rotated, one mysterious rune after another flew out, meeting those surging chaotic currents of time and space.
The flames spewing from the Eight Trigrams Furnace shuttled like spirit snakes, refining those chaotic currents of time and space one by one into pure power, which flowed continuously into the bodies of the three Masters of the Forbidden Zone along Jiang Xuan's palm.
At this moment, that remnant soul currently undergoing Reincarnation seemed to be summoned by some mysterious force, suddenly slowly opening its eyes; its pupils circulated with endless vicissitudes spanning nine Eras.
"What a fine defiance of Heavenly Secrets!" From the depths of the Yi Yu came a cold laugh filled with resentment.
A black altar emitting a gloomy aura slowly rose from the chaotic currents of time and space. Atop the altar sat cross-legged a mysterious figure in black robes concealing the face — precisely that Immortal King who had his Karma severed.
Jiang Xuan's expression did not change; his hands rapidly formed Hand Seals, and the Eight Trigrams Furnace behind him suddenly flew out, hovering above his head.
The Eight Trigrams Furnace's door opened wide, and a suction force deep as an abyss and hellish transmitted out, frantically sucking in those soul shadows of the Yi Yu experts.
Flames rose within the furnace, instantly burning those soul shadows to nothing, transforming them into pure Primordial Qi of heaven and earth, which fed back toward the three Masters of the Forbidden Zone.
Liu Shen witnessed all this, and the shock in her heart was like surging waves, difficult to calm.
She finally comprehended Jiang Xuan's true purpose — not simply reincarnation and rebirth, but to use supreme Greatness to reshape the Cultivation Trajectories of the three Masters of the Forbidden Zone, letting them leave behind invincible legends that shake ancient and modern times in every Era, thereby constructing a brand new, indestructible chain of Karma within the River of Time.
Such means have already surpassed the Cognition Range of ordinary Immortal Kings.
"This is your Dao?" Liu Shen asked softly, her voice unconsciously carrying a thread of reverence.
Jiang Xuan slowly turned around, his gaze firm and blazing: "My Dao is to rekindle all glory that has been crushed, to bring forth again all legends that have been forgotten."
Right at this moment, the Wind and Cloud between heaven and earth suddenly changed, a thunderclap resounded through the clouds. An incomparably thick purple Tribulation Lightning, like a World Annihilation divine punishment, crashed down from the horizon, carrying terrifying might that destroys heaven and extinguishes earth, pressing straight toward Jiang Xuan.
This is precisely the Heavenly Dao's severe Punishment for his act of Defying Heaven and Changing Fate.
Jiang Xuan's expression was cold and stern; the corner of his mouth hooked into a fearless cold smile, he raised his hand and offered up the Eight Trigrams Furnace.
The Eight Trigrams Furnace instantly enlarged, the furnace body blooming with ten thousand rays of light, meeting that terrifying Tribulation Lightning.
The Tribulation Lightning struck the Eight Trigrams Furnace, splashing countless electric sparks, yet unable to shake the Eight Trigrams Furnace Not a Bit. Jiang Xuan operated the Eight Trigrams Furnace, guiding the power of the Tribulation Lightning into the furnace to refine it.
His body trembled slightly, strange light flickering on his skin, countless mysterious Dao Patterns emerging; each and every pattern seemed tightly connected to a Heavenly Dao Law, emitting a heart-palpitating powerful aura.
"Come, let me see what other means the Heavenly Dao has!" Jiang Xuan roared at the sky, his voice like rolling thunder, shattering the heavy clouds at the horizon.
In the Sky, countless purple Tribulation Lightnings seemed summoned by some mysterious force, rapidly gathering into a baring-fangs-and-brandishing-claws Giant Dragon, carrying terrifying momentum that destroys heaven and extinguishes earth, frantically lunging toward Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan's expression did not change; he fully activated the Eight Trigrams Furnace, flames soaring skyward from within the furnace, forming a huge wall of fire that blocked the lunging Tribulation Lightning Giant Dragon outside.
With the continuous impact of the Tribulation Lightning, the Eight Trigrams Furnace's light grew ever more flourishing, and Jiang Xuan's aura also grew ever more powerful.
Liu Shen stood quietly to the side, expression Heavy as she watched Jiang Xuan's fierce Confrontation with the River of Time, her eyes full of shock and Worry.
If Jiang Xuan succeeds, then the vanished glory will surely rekindle, the crushed legends will surely reappear; if he unfortunately fails, the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths will fall into an irredeemable Abyss, becoming a dead silent desolate wasteland.
Right at this critical moment, Jiang Xuan suddenly slowly opened his eyes, a flash of comprehension light passing through them. He finally thoroughly comprehended his own Dao — a difficult Road that defies and disrupts Qian Kun, reshaping glory.
He wants to make all vanished existences revive with Vitality anew, to make all crushed legends once again shake heaven and earth; even if the price is his life, he will not hesitate.
"Defy and disrupt Yin and Yang, reshape Qian Kun!" Jiang Xuan roared at the sky, his voice shaking the Universe.
His hands rapidly formed Hand Seals, pushing the Eight Trigrams Furnace's power to its limit. A five-colored light pillar spewed from the Eight Trigrams Furnace, violently colliding with the Tribulation Lightning Giant Dragon in the Sky. In this violent collision, Jiang Xuan used supreme Greatness to fuse the power of the Tribulation Lightning with the might of the Eight Trigrams Furnace, feeding it back into himself.
Within the five-colored light pillar, countless Dao Patterns emerged like swimming dragons; each and every one corresponded to a destroyed Era.
These Dao Patterns rapidly gathered, forming an incomparably huge Reincarnation Disk, suspended above Jiang Xuan's head, emitting a mysterious and powerful aura.
The Reincarnation Disk rotated leisurely, and between heaven and earth rang out countless ancient and mysterious incantations.
The shadows of experts from those destroyed Eras emerged one by one like illusory bubbles; their expressions respectful, they bowed to Jiang Xuan, then transformed into streaks of flowing light, merging into the Reincarnation.
In the Void, hundreds of millions of strands of Purple Cloud Divine Thunder wrapped in Chaos Laws transformed into Nine Heavens furious dragons, carrying the might to annihilate the Universe as they crashed down.
Jiang Xuan stood alone in the center of the Life Forbidden Zone, drawing upon himself Tribulation Lightning sufficient to shatter the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; his body had already split open with spider-web-like cracks, each explosion of lightning light causing the Void to tremble with ripples of chaotic currents of time and space.
This small world opened up by the Masters of the Forbidden Zone is undergoing the most violent Baptism since Pangu's Axe split heaven and earth.
The aftermath of the Tribulation Lightning turned into roaming light snakes; wherever they reached, immortal mountains and divine temples collapsed like sand towers, jade steps condensed from ten-thousand-year profound ice instantly vaporized, even the hundreds of millions of star systems floating in the Universe Lake turned into star dust and sleet.
"So this is the Reincarnation Tribulation?" Amidst Jiang Xuan's low mutter he coughed up golden Dao Blood carrying lightning patterns; the 129,600 acupoints within his body simultaneously lit up with Nirvana Divine Fire.
The Wuchu Dao Ti circulated between Annihilation and Rebirth; beneath the charred and cracked skin, newly born muscles and bones were branded with Chaos lightning patterns; each and every shattering made his aura draw ever closer to the King Realm. (Chapter End)
