Chapter 1899: Chapter 25: Star Alliance’s High-End Combat Power
On the Ascending Immortal Platform, Zhang Xiaoman split apart the falling Immortal Realm with a single sword, and reforged the Heavenly Dao of the entire Divine Ancient World.
On this day, Spiritual Energy permeated everything, and all within the Nine Rivers and Ten Lands shared in the blessing.
And from this day on, there would no longer be any True Immortals, no more Immortal Realm; throughout the entire Divine Ancient Continent there would be only a single Mortal World.
Cultivators were all suddenly enlightened, raising their heads to gaze at the sky, feeling as if a continent that connected heaven and earth had appeared within their hearts.
Originally in this world, because the inheritances of some ancient sects had not yet perished, aside from Cultivators, there were still quite a number of people who cultivated immortality, leading to a chaotic cultivation system.
As those who cultivated immortality increased their cultivation, their human emotions would gradually dissipate; they regarded all living beings as grass, all things as stray dogs, and in order to seek proof of the Dao, they would stop at nothing, doing as they pleased, with no retribution at all.
In the end, when their cultivation reached the heavens and their emotions were completely annihilated, they were no longer Human, but another new life, a new race—Immortal.
The former calamity of the Immortals arose because of this; those who cultivated immortality regarded all the beings under heaven as ants, taking lives or sparing them entirely at whim, once causing the development of mortal kingdoms to grind to a halt.
But from this moment on, those who cultivated immortality would be completely gone, for the Heavenly Dao had been reforged; the path by which Mortals once shed their mortal bodies to become Immortals had vanished, and what was truly recognized by the Heavenly Dao had turned into the path of the Cultivator.
Those who cultivate truth, though they seek immortality, do not annihilate their nature; the seven emotions and six desires, the mundane world of red dust,恩怨情仇, and karmic Reincarnation—all become opportunities for cultivation.
The end of this road is to be like Zhang Xiaoman, to achieve the Transcendent, and with an undying and Immortal body attain an eternally Undying existence.
This sword, for all the world’s cultivators and for countless Mortals, cleaved open a new future.
"Kid! What guts! With this one sword of yours, you directly turned the whole world upside down. This move is practically on par with when the Primordial Heavenly Emperor created the Heavenly Dao and established the Immortal Realm. I truly didn’t misjudge you."
Ni Yang watched this scene and exclaimed over and over, for the first time giving such an unprecedentedly high score.
To get this guy to give such an evaluation was truly harder than hard; this old dragon, just like Master Liu, had a hard mouth, a thick skin, and especially cared about face. Zhang Xiaoman had been criticized by it nonstop along the way, and now it was actually able to praise him so bluntly—this alone showed how high the difficulty level of what Zhang Xiaoman had just done was.
Zhang Xiaoman let out a weak breath, his figure descending and disappearing from everyone’s field of view, but in fact he and Ni Yang had arrived at a certain place above the Ninth Heaven, which was precisely where the entrance to the Ruins Realm lay.
"Ni Yang, I’m not as exaggerated as you make it sound. I still can’t compare with the Primordial Heavenly Emperor. I only used the Strength of the Purple Cloud Divine Sword to complete the reforging of the Heavenly Dao. That’s much simpler than creating the Heavenly Dao from nothing."
Zhang Xiaoman still didn’t forget to be modest.
Ni Yang flicked its tail.
"Of course I know you can’t compare to the Heavenly Emperor. I was just saying that to motivate you."
Zhang Xiaoman was immediately a bit speechless, feeling that the topic had suddenly been cut off.
"Kid, after this round of reforging the Heavenly Dao, I can vaguely feel myself being somewhat rejected by the new Heavenly Dao. Fortunately, what I mainly cultivate are the Demon Race’s Divine Skills. Otherwise, I’m afraid this time I would have been directly thrown out by your new Heavenly Dao."
Ni Yang looked at him askance.
Zhang Xiaoman felt a little embarrassed.
"Heh heh, Ni Yang, I’m just a bit strained and not yet proficient. I should’ve added a dedicated passage just for you. Hold on, I’ll have the Heavenly Dao add a VIP tag just for you. It definitely won’t give you trouble in the future."
Ni Yang had spent quite some time on Water Blue Star, often using its Divine Soul to watch TV and read novels and such, so it was naturally not unfamiliar with the phrases Zhang Xiaoman used. It merely curled its lip and said:
"Alright, alright, no need to bother. I just happen to be sick of staying in this world anyway, so it’s just right to go out and stretch my legs. Before, I was always stuck watching from inside that Jade. Now that I’ve finally recovered, of course I have to go out and walk around in person."
When Zhang Xiaoman heard that Ni Yang was going to leave the Divine Ancient World, he was actually quite happy in his heart.
If an existence like Ni Yang was willing to come out of the mountains, then the Star Alliance would instantly have two Middle-level Transcendents. Although Ni Yang wouldn’t necessarily make a move, if the Star Alliance ever encountered danger while he happened to be away, there was no way Ni Yang would just sit back and do nothing.
Of course, the Star Alliance was now extremely powerful; it was no longer something that any random cat or dog could provoke. Saying that Ni Yang would sit in town as a trump card was in fact something that would almost never be needed.
Even if Zhang Xiaoman and Ni Yang, these two Middle-level Transcendents, didn’t make a move, there was still a whole bunch of Extraordinary Level combatants below. Leaving Yeluo and Plague aside for the moment, just looking at the current drone fleet, within the cluster controlled by Death Omen Star there were four Godslayer Level drones, which was equivalent to four Transcendents.
Whoever came, upon seeing this lineup, probably wouldn’t dare give rise to any thought of opposing them.
Unwittingly, the Star Alliance had already grown into a true behemoth, no longer unworthy of the name. Even those powerful organizations in the Second Universe, upon seeing them, could only bend their backs and respectfully offer a greeting.
Right now, what the Star Alliance lacked most was no longer top-tier combat strength, but middle- and high-tier Strength, people like those in the Godslayer Team, especially experts at the late-stage Control Level.
After all, each Transcendent had their own region they needed to sit in and guard. The Beller drones cluster had to confront the Insect Race in the Phantom Spirit Star System, and the four God Slayers could not easily leave.
