Chapter 165: Chapter 156: Golden Life [Cyan Cloud Sword Leader]
[One sword unexpectedly caused both the Human Race and the Dragon Race to voluntarily cease hostilities, putting aside their dispute.]
[This is the significance carried by the "one sword."]
[Ying Long looked up to the sky, as did the Ancestral Dragon, who was like a stone, before lowering its head, gazing at Ning Xunqiu. He indeed achieved it, even if just briefly suppressing the Three Saints and the Ancestral Dragon, this power is enough to astonish the world.]
[Being able to intervene in such a high-level "magical combat" and simultaneously suppress both sides, this strength undoubtedly transcends both sides, becoming an existence that cannot be ignored.]
[Henceforth, if the divine beings wish to "begin slaughter," they must surpass the high peak that is "Qingyun Daoist," otherwise it would just be wishful thinking.]
[What the other divine beings think is unknown, however, Ying Long considers it a good thing. The Human Race, Dragon Race, Orthodox Sect occupy the Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth, how can the beings with spirit challenge the Orthodox Sect?]
[Ning Xunqiu’s left side gradually became "darkened" as he slowly released the "Sword of Despair" in his hand, half of his body seeming to turn into cold "stone," losing all sensation.]
[More terrible is that half of his thinking was also lost, the entire person seemed to be divided into two.]
[He bitterly smiled in his heart, this is the aftereffect of using the "Sword of Despair," at this moment he had already been eroded by despair by one-third, he can wield only one more sword at most.]
["Boom!" A round Profound Yellow Great Sun descended from the sky, he looked at the Daoist Butian frozen in the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," decisively intending to fall into it.]
["Master!" Ning Xunqiu was powerless to continue fighting at this time, immediately shouted loudly.]
[In an instant, a galaxy poured down as though from beyond the Nine Heavens, guarding the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" firmly.]
[Simultaneously, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven descended, launching intense attacks towards the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" unhesitatingly.]
[Yet, Ying Long and Linglong Fairy made no hesitation in attacking, forcefully repulsing that three heavens’ offensive.]
["Spiritual Treasure?!" Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven were abruptly repulsed, their gaze collectively fell upon the "Round Wheel" emitting a faint glow in Linglong Fairy’s hand, not resisting a shock, secretly pondering its power.]
["Liuli!"]
["Are you truly determined to oppose us for a dead person!?"]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable shouted angrily, his tone revealing a deep sense of threat.]
[Liuli Immortal Venerable’s expression was calm, gently shook her head: "Not dead, he is the Jade Sky True Inheritance."]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable was stunned, then turned to Ying Long: "Ying Long, don’t forget, your brother was also suppressed by this person, are you truly indifferent?"]
[Ying Long nodded, said: "What I requested."]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable was momentarily speechless, he also knew about the petty affair between the Ancestral Dragon and Ying Long. He looked at the crowd indignantly, secretly calculating the next plan.]
[The Three Saints were too reckless, giving them no chance to come and support the "Four Heavens." Taking action now could not quickly suppress Liuli Immortal Venerable, Linglong Fairy, Ying Long, causing the situation to stalemate again.]
[But the Three Saints must be rescued—]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable’s gaze focused, about to take action.]
[Right then, Ning Xunqiu rose slowly, half of his body was full of cracks like a porcelain doll, half of his body was dark and unknown, his cyan robe fluttering wildly in the wind.]
["This treasure is called—Immortal Slaying Sword Map."]
["Inside, there are my three Lifebound Swords."]
["This sword is called Chaos." As soon as the words fell, a near-breaking obelisk floated behind him, and the Great Gods of the Human Race and Dragon Race present saw clearly, this sword had just suppressed the Venerable of Dao and Virtue, Taixuan Daoist.]
[The Great Divine Power Users on the Human Race’s side immediately informed the Profound Yellow Four Heavens of the might of "this sword."]
[Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven took a deep breath, this sword could actually suppress two Saints possessing "Great Dao Spiritual Treasure"?]
["This sword is named Despair." Ning Xunqiu continued his introduction. A pitch-black long sword floated quietly, unobservable by primordial spirit, looking harmless to the naked eye.]
[Yet Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven were just gazing at the "dead silence" aura the Qingyun Daoist seemed to be tainted with, and the Ancestral Dragon resembling a "stone" in the sky.]
[This sword is very dangerous, capable of inflicting fatal damage to them.]
["This sword is named Freedom—" the last to appear is an Ancient Bronze Sword, which also remains silent in the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," the divine beings unable to measure its depths.]
[Considering the astounding might shown by the previous two Lifebound Swords, Qingyun Daoist’s final Lifebound Sword is undoubtedly his most powerful trump card, with power beyond estimation.]
[Ning Xunqiu’s gaze was bright, looking at the leading Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable, a smile appeared on his face. Then, a dazzling "Golden Great Sun" slowly rose behind him, radiant, he extended an inviting gesture.]
["I invite all heavens into this ’Immortal Slaying Sword Map’."]
[For a moment, Profound Yellow Heaven, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven watched the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," collectively silent.]
[Enter? What a joke.]
[Bare feet are not afraid of shoes.]
[In this half-dead state of the "Qingyun Daoist," he is surely willing to risk his life to wield the "three swords within the Immortal Slaying Sword Map" again... regardless of victory or defeat, Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven are certainly not the Three Saints and Ancestral Dragon.]
[Especially the three heavens, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven, if they accidentally encounter these three swords during the magical combat with Liuli Immortal Venerable, Linglong Fairy, Ying Long, they face the risk of falling and the Dao disappearing.]
[They have to walk the same path again, who can ensure they will certainly attain the Great Dao again?]
[Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven communicated their primordial spirits for a while, determined the result, unanimously decided not to act.]
[Anyway, this person is certain to die, today giving way once or twice, losing some face doesn’t matter?]
[Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven listed a million reasons, negotiating with the "Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable."]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable’s face showed varied expressions.]
[Ning Xunqiu watched Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable calmly, slowly spoke: "From now on, divine beings must not interfere in matters of the mortal world."]
[As his words fell, the three swords behind him roared in unison, the sound of sword chant reverberating through the clouds.]
[Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, Xuanling Heaven saw this, faces changed drastically, hurriedly retreated, not daring to be complacent.]
[Profound Yellow Celestial Venerable’s eyes were sharp, looking down at the Daoist with three swords on his back, dressed in a cyan robe, gritting his teeth: "Good, good ’Immortal Slaying Sword Map’, good Qingyun Daoist, today, seems we failed."]
[Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, and Xuanling Heaven brought "Daoist Butian" to ascend to the heavens, with the Divine Land Orthodox Sect following closely.]
[At the same time, Ying Long swept his gaze over the Dragon Race gods and said solemnly, "Dragon Race, withdraw from the Divine Land."]
[Ying Long and Yellow Dragon used Divine Techniques to submerge the Ancestral Dragon’s true form into the Four Seas.]
[Cloud Dragon and Celestial Dragon looked back with great reluctance, their dream of unifying the world was just one step away when they gazed at the sword map and three sharp swords behind the figure of "Qingyun Daoist".]
[Choose from the heart.]
[The tide receded.]
[Beams of light pierced through the thick clouds, falling onto the earth.]
["The war is over..." The surviving voices of the Divine Land gazed towards the light, only to see a lone figure in a cyan robe in the sky.]
["What is the name of that sword-wielding Daoist?" Someone couldn’t help but ask.]
["Qingyun."]
["Purple Sky Immortal Island, Loose Cultivator Ancestor, Qingyun—Sword Leader." A cultivator’s face was full of admiration. That figure, almost single-handedly, suppressed the Three Saints and the Ancestral Dragon, not for a "battle of Dao," but simply because he couldn’t stand the actions of the sacred ones.]
[Such a simple reason.]
["In the future, I will also practice the sword and prove the Dao by the sword." Someone felt a longing, secretly determined.]
[This was just a snapshot of the countless cultivators who were all in awe of the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader’s spirit.]
[As the figure of Ning Xunqiu was about to disappear between heaven and earth, he felt a sensation in his heart. As the sole victor of the "Human and Dragon Great Tribulation," he received the blessing of the Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth, and the whole world celebrated him.]
[At this moment, he abandoned his damaged body, determined to reincarnate and surely attain Dao.]
[Ning Xunqiu shook his head, and with Master Liuli and Linglong, returned to the East Sea to find Ying Long...]
...
[Three years.]
["Cyan Cloud Sword Leader" established a "Rule" that all sacred must abide by, which is the Fortune of Heaven and Earth; all living beings are destined and cannot oppress the weak with the strong.]
[The Divine Land Orthodox Sect occupied all major mountains and Spirit Veins.]
[And those cultivators unable to resist could only travel the world, arduously seeking that chance for enlightenment. However, the precious opportunities were almost entirely seized by the orthodox forces, not sparing even a thread.]
[The Human Race and Dragon Race were equally tyrannical.]
[Either give up the opportunities or face death and Dao disappearance, or become a dog by joining them.]
[Through the ages, naturally, there were those who refused to submit.]
[But the sacred regarded themselves as the Celestial Number, which crushed the backbone of countless Celestial Prides and heroes, leaving them with tragic ends.]
[The world finally understood that "Divine Techniques are no match for the Celestial Number," and under the orthodox Celestial Number, bowed their heads, yielding under pressure.]
[With this kneel, the living beings forgot they were free "humans."]
[But is it right to always be so?]
[Wrong.]
[Simply because all living beings know.]
[As long as Qingyun Sword Leader does not die, the sacred dare not act as grand thieves.]
...
[East Sea, the peak of Cliff Mountain, a figure in a cyan robe sat with a sword in hand; he sat like this for eight hundred years.]
[Seated through the flourishing of the mortal world, myriad Daos established, all beings dared to compete with orthodox forces for a thread of Great Dao opportunity in a great era.]
["Alas."]
[The cyan-robed figure suddenly sighed, opened his eyes, and looked up at the sky.]
[A gentle breeze swept by, and his body could no longer sustain, slowly turning to ash in the breeze.]
...
Ring.
[Congratulations, your life full of ups and downs has been evaluated as a Golden Life "Cyan Cloud Sword Leader":
You were a Qi Cultivator from the Purple Sky Immortal Island of the East Sea. You embarked on the path of enlightenment, endowed with "Great Fortune", "Great Divine Techniques", and "Great Magical Power", transcending the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth. You could have sat and watched the Human Race and Dragon Race slaughter each other.
But you saw all beings struggling for survival, empathized, couldn’t bear it in your heart, and so wielded the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" down the mountain.
You used the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" to suppress the Venerable of Dao and Virtue, Taixuan Daoist, Daoist Butian, and the Ancestral Dragon.
You single-handedly mediated the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, prematurely ending the Celestial Mandate.
You sat with a sword on the peak of Cliff Mountain, deterring all "sacred" of the Qingxu Realm from acting as grand thieves against all beings, intercepting the thread of "heavenly opportunity" that rightfully belonged to them.
The Great Dao is ninety-nine, you are the half of the "One" above.
You are——Cyan Cloud Sword Leader!
Congratulations, you have obtained the Celestial Mandate Great Fortune 999999...Error...Unable to obtain...You have obtained 999 points of Fortune.]
[You have earned a Golden Life Achievement Reward.]
[Do you wish to draw the Golden Life Achievement Reward immediately?]
