Star Trace Gate

Chapter 823 Heaven and Earth Sword Furnace, a Pot of Immortal Soup

The wishes of the people of the world converged upon one man. The ancient sword, sealed in the dust for five hundred years, awakened today like an old friend from a long sleep...

Jiang Yu's white hair was flying, and his body was hanging on the high platform of the emperor's tomb. The mortal aura he had when he returned to the world was gone.

The star sand that was formed after the star core in his abdomen collapsed was awakening one by one, emitting a myriad of brilliance; the divine wheel of life was turning again, completely naturally; a divine pressure that was enough to make any sixth-grade soul tremble and be terrified suddenly filled the world at this moment.

"Ong!"

The Tianmen acupoint between Jiang Yu's eyebrows emitted a sound of sword ringing. The ancient sword that awakened from the space of self-consciousness, between its heavy and mottled state, regained its brilliance, and the extremely slow intention was drawn out from the Tianmen.

At this moment, three different kinds of Dao power coexisted within this world. One was the Dao rhyme of the Great Emperor that had not yet completely dissipated; the second was the power of the Heavenly Dao; and the third was the Dao power of Jiang Yu's return to the Divine Forbidden Realm.

The divine forbidden wheel of life revived, the sound of swords resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and the spirit of the Great Dao swept across the world!

I really don’t know how long it has been, maybe ten thousand years, or thousands of years. Whether it is Jiuli or other human worlds controlled by the Heavenly Dao, there has never been a real living person forbidden by the gods.

Either there were those forbidden by the gods who had hidden themselves from the world, for unknown reasons, leaving behind only legends or the aura of a treasure that protected the Dao in the cautious human world; or perhaps the great age had never arrived, and those forbidden by the gods had long since died, languishing in the endless dusty years...

Therefore, during this period of time, the sixth level was the highest realm in the world.

But today, under the gaze of billions of eyes of the Jiuli people, an unknown stranger has accomplished the feat of regaining the forbidden realm of the gods in this world. This is truly too shocking.

Outside Xingshan, atop the Immortal Mountain, the old marquis' expression froze, his eyes wide open as he stuttered, muttering, "It's been almost a year. No wonder I couldn't see through him... He actually is a fallen divine forbidden realm. Today... Today, this era of being on par with the heavens is truly coming to an end."

Inside Chaolong City, the old beggar suddenly stood up and said, "Enter the Divine Forbidden Zone again... Then are you damn near dead or alive? Give me a definite answer!"

"Oh my god, Divine Forbidden… His protector is actually Divine Forbidden?! Then what rank is his master?!" The demon girl of the Ghost Sect was stunned, but at the same time, she roared in ecstasy in her heart: "Pressure…Pressure is correct! This world is really going to change color."

"The Great Dao Divine Forbidden Dao!!! The Great Dao truly exists in this world! It's not some deceptive thing found in ancient scriptures and books...!"

"He said that he had been a member of the Jiuli for less than a year, yet he was able to transcend the mundane world and attain enlightenment amidst this chaotic world. Today, he is using the voice of the mortal world to re-establish the Great Dao. This kind of talent is truly... comparable... to that of my Great Emperor Jiuli!"

"...!"

There was a lot of discussion in the world. There were many old men in the fourth and fifth realms. Although they might stop at this realm for the rest of their lives, they all had extraordinary experience and good knowledge. When they truly felt the meaning of the avenue that was about to awaken, they felt as if all the turbid air in their chests had been expelled and the clouds and mist had been cleared to see the light.

It had been far too long, truly far too long since a divinely forbidden being had appeared in the world. To the point that many cultivators, who had stalled their progress throughout their lives, were now doubting whether the great path recorded in these ancient books truly existed.

Is the sixth rank already the pinnacle? !

They do not have the vision of those high-ranking kings and clan leaders, nor have they reached the realm above the sixth rank, so they are so confused and hesitant.

But the appearance of Jiang Yu today allowed countless cultivators to stabilize their Daoist hearts in an instant and vaguely see the way forward.

In the Land of No Rank, Wu Chen, Situ Ang, the leader of Qingyao Sect, the head of Lu Family and fifteen other sixth-rank people were all stunned at this moment.

When Jiang Yu came, he said that he wanted to kill the dragon on the platform with the clear wind, and the echo of his words is still lingering in the air.

But in the minds of the fifteen sect leaders and the king, these words were just like the words that the old beggar shouted from time to time: "We cannot live together, but we can die together. Who among the sixth rank people in the world dares to fight with me!" It was a threatening statement that could kill anyone together.

They all felt personally that Jiang Yu's life span was coming to an end, and his coming here alone was a threat. If anyone dared to stop the descendant of the ancient emperor from seizing the opportunity, I would ascend to heaven with the person who blocked my way.

Therefore, although the leaders of the fifteen sects and the kings were afraid of Jiang Yu, they all held the mentality of not colliding porcelain with earthenware. They believed that it was extremely unwise and unnecessary to fight for their lives with such a dying person.

This was also why they had endured for nearly a year, and only appeared simultaneously after the Ungraded Land opened. They were terrified that they wouldn't be able to unleash their peak divine power in a fourth or fifth grade secret realm, and thus face a setback, being traded for one or more at their limit, just like how Xiliang King Situ Ang was defeated by Lord Yan in a lower-level secret realm.

But at this moment, they have personally felt that a divine aura is reviving between heaven and earth!

"God's Forbidden… He is actually the one who is God's Forbidden!!"

The Qingyao Sect Master was extremely shocked and impatiently asked everyone, "Everyone, this situation...!"

"Didn't you understand? He wants to kill all the immortals in the sky! Today, we have reached a point of no return!" The Lu family patriarch cursed his eldest son Lu Tou in his heart: "Why the hell are you stopping the heir of the Ancient Emperor for no reason?!"

"That's right, we have no way to retreat, the only option is to fight! Even the aura of the Great Emperor will dissipate one day, so what if he is a divine ban? What's more, he is a person who has returned from a low state, and his divine aura is unstable... Even if the fifteen of us join forces, he will never be able to resist!" Situ Ang is the one who has no way to retreat, because he has always been a backbone member in the matter of the ancient emperor's successor, and he is the one who is most responsible. The hatred between the two sides has long been impossible to resolve.

"Everyone, you must not let him regain his sense of the Great Dao."

The kind and calm expression on Wuchen's face had long since disappeared, because too many things had happened today that were beyond his expectations. At this moment, the aura of Shinto was reviving, and he would never let the plan he had been planning for so long go to waste at this moment: "Take advantage of his unstable Shinto aura and kill him first!"

"Boom boom boom!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fifteen sixth-grade cultivators almost simultaneously raised the trace of the Great Dao hidden within themselves.

The reason why the sixth level is called the Touching Dao Realm is that they have just touched a trace of the origin of the Dao and the existence of the laws of heaven and earth. At this moment, they are simultaneously evolving the divine law with the Dao meaning contained in their souls, and there is an instant feeling of the sky collapsing and the earth sinking in the emperor's tomb.

The Yumen Sect's leader was an elderly woman with half-white hair. With a single lift of her arm, she ignited the sect's protective divine sword. A magical aura pierced heaven and earth, transforming the sword's spirit into a white tiger spirit, which slammed down from the heavens towards the human world. Wuchen instantly unleashed his six meridians of immortal aura. As his aura surged through them, the dozen or so hundred-foot-tall, pitch-black peaks within the Xingshan Emperor's Tomb suddenly collapsed, turning into endless dust that fell far into the desolate wasteland.

Situ Ang conjured three giant dragons, which swam across the Emperor's Tomb. One dragon took the sky, one the earth, and one the water. This was known as the Three Elements Qi Transformation into Dragons, a supremely inherited technique from Xiliang, unseen in centuries. The Lu family patriarch manipulated the eight human puppets and eight earthly ghosts with unparalleled puppet manipulation, channeling a ray of his own Dao intent. He unexpectedly enabled sixteen fifth-grade corpse puppets to briefly break through their ultimate limits, delivering a strike comparable to that of the initial sixth-grade realm.

The sixth-grade supreme beings of the other fifteen sects, also in the surge of that trace of the power of the Great Dao, shone their divine methods throughout the sky, reached the extreme realm, and attacked and killed people everywhere.

At this moment, many secret magical methods and immortal methods that have been circulating among the Jiuli people for endless years have returned to the world.

This should have been a golden opportunity for all cultivators to be excited and to glimpse the true meaning of the Great Dao. However, the reality was that when the Sixth-Rank Supremes from the fifteen sects attacked simultaneously, the Fourth-Rank cultivators were almost instantly blinded, their consciousness completely severed. Amidst the overwhelming divine power and strange visions, they were overwhelmed by the Great Dao's power, their five senses suddenly lost, their souls trembling, and they were not even qualified to observe the battle!

After all, that was the most powerful attack and killing method evolved by fifteen sixth-grade people together. The soul of those who are not fourth-grade can't withstand it, so naturally they can't visualize it.

The sixth-grade of the fifteen sects, while evolving their methods of attack and killing, also used their minds to stimulate the power of luck accumulated by each sect over thousands of years.

In an instant, purple luck containing a faint golden light spread throughout the entire imperial tomb, and then surged towards Jiang Yu.

As everyone knows, the only thing that can fight against the way of heaven is luck, and the only thing that can fight against the power of the Great Dao is luck. They attempted to use the vast luck of the fifteen sects to completely suppress Jiang Yu's revived divine aura, causing him to fall back to the sixth level, and thus instantly perish in those fifteen devastating attacks.

Within the Emperor's Tomb, myriad strange visions surged, the power of divine law boundless. This ungraded land could not withstand such devastation. Even the dozen or so hundred-foot-tall black mountains within the Emperor's Tomb collapsed instantly. Therefore, if this were an ordinary ungraded land, it would have been completely shattered in this earth-shattering battle, just like the Migration Land, turning into endless dust and drifting into the inky black universe.

But...it's not an ordinary fifth-grade place!!

It is the place where the great emperor died, and after endless years have passed, the emperor's Taoist charm has not completely dissipated!

"Ong!"

In the emperor's tomb, a crimson light exploded, covering every inch of the sky and land, temporarily stabilizing the signs of human collapse.

On the high platform, luck from all directions surged in, each mixed with fifteen sixth-grade masters, evolving a shocking blow with a hint of the Great Dao!

"Boom!"

The world seemed to disappear in silence amidst the loud noise, and everyone felt a buzzing in their ears.

The spectators below the fourth rank had already exited the state of visualization, and only saw a blurry view of the emperor's tomb when they looked up; while those above the fifth rank were trying their best to mobilize the power of their souls, and saw from the divine light that annihilated the world that the stranger's body and soul suddenly dimmed and did not show a trace of brilliance under the attacks of fifteen attacks containing a trace of the power of the Great Dao.

"He... Is he going to die?!"

"After all...the immortals in heaven are difficult to defeat!"

"The Dao intention that he just surged out of has collapsed. It will be difficult for this person who has fallen into a lower realm to return to the peak. This is destiny and cannot be violated!"

"...!"

The sound of discussion was resounding, and those of high quality only saw Jiang Yu's light, which dimmed at the moment when the group of immortals performed their actions.

“Tick…tick…!”

A line of tears mixed with a line of bloody tears slowly flowed down the cheeks.

Ren Ye stood on the high platform, concentrating his energy in his eyes, but he still couldn't see the essence of the divine law that filled the sky. However, in the light of the divine law evolved by the immortals, he saw Jiang Yu's aura suddenly dissipate and be swallowed by the immortal light...

"He just left his ancestral land and saw the future...!"

An extremely sad emotion surged in his heart, and Ren shed tears of blood unconsciously.

Above the sky, within the divine light emitted by a group of immortals, Jiang Yu's spirit was restrained, and his clothes were not dusty.

Outsiders' sight was obscured by the celestial light that filled the sky, so they couldn't see him, nor did they know what state he was in at the moment...

He had been in a low state for too long, and his previous understanding of the Great Dao was broken. So now, in order to ascend to the God Forbidden Realm, he needed to restart his life.

What is the Wheel of Destiny?!

For sixth-rank and lower magical practitioners, no matter what kind of magic they use, the source of their power and spiritual power comes from the star core in their abdomen.

Those who have attained enlightenment can condense a star core, and through long years of hard practice, make the star core grow bigger and more solid, and make the power of the star wish (spiritual energy) contained in the belly become deeper and deeper, thus breaking through the lifespan and becoming extraordinary.

If a sixth-grade Dao-toucher wishes to ascend to the forbidden realm of the gods, he must use the power of the Dao he has comprehended to shatter the star core within his own abdomen, causing the star core to collapse and turn into a belly full of star sand. He must also push the storage of the source of his own divine law to the highest limit, degenerating from a single core into a river of star sand. Only in this way can he withstand the power of the Dao.
