Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 457

Chapter 457 The Power of Aoki, His Foundation Exhausted (Seeking Subscriptions)

The Seven-Colored Heavenly Blade was actually defeated by the Little Qingmu Sword!

The result of this battle was beyond the expectations of most cultivators.

That Blissful Heavenly Lord, as a top expert during the era of the Nine Great Immortal Sects, should be much stronger than the Qingmu Heavenly Lord.

After all, the world 30,000 years ago was barren, far inferior to the era of the Immortal Sects.

Many people believed that

in this barren cultivation world, the Qingmu Heavenly Lord could at most cultivate to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Only Li Chang’an knew that the Qingmu Heavenly Lord had even killed a peak fifth-tier cultivator, and more than one.

“Senior Qingmu’s cultivation should be at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm.”

“If he had lived in the ancient era, when the resources of the cultivation world were more abundant, would he have gone even further?”

Li Chang’an pondered secretly.

Just as he was thinking,

several auras of Nascent Soul power suddenly appeared.

The Wanle True Lord’s expression was cold, and eight heavenly blades appeared around him, each containing a wisp of Nascent Soul power.

The appearance of these eight celestial blades caused a change in the expressions of the righteous path members.

No one had expected that

True Monarch Wanle would possess so many Nascent Soul stage trump cards!

“One isn’t enough, then eight will do! Watch how I shatter this wooden sword!”

His face hardened, and with a wave of his hand, the eight celestial blades flew out simultaneously, their Nascent Soul power erupting suddenly, confronting the Little Green Wood Sword beneath the sky.

The two Nascent Soul powers clashed fiercely, clashing against each other.

The demonic path saw a glimmer of hope.

The Blood River Demon spoke, “Fellow Daoist Wanle is indeed worthy of being a Nascent Soul cultivator’s son; he possesses many fifth-tier techniques. He should be able to win this battle.”

Black Centipede nodded, “Yes, even if that Green Wood Sword is strong, it can’t possibly fight eight alone.”

“Don’t be careless; I’m afraid Qi Jiuyang also has more fifth-tier techniques…”

Many Nascent Soul cultivators from the demonic path stared at Qi Jiuyang, worried that he would take out more Little Green Wood Swords.

On the righteous path’s side, everyone transmitted their thoughts to Qi Jiuyang.

Vermilion Bird True Monarch inquired, “Fellow Daoist Qi, do you possess any other fifth-tier secrets?”

Azure Dragon asked, “Fellow Daoist Qi, what is the true extent of Azure Wood Heavenly Monarch’s cultivation? Does your Great Qi have any records?”

Faced with the questions, Qi Jiuyang’s expression turned solemn, and he remained silent for a moment.

His gaze remained fixed on the Little Azure Wood Sword, and after a while, he responded to the crowd.

“Everyone, our Great Qi has no records of Senior Azure Wood’s cultivation, nor do I possess any other fifth-tier secrets, only this Little Azure Wood Sword.”

“Only this one?”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts sank.

The Black Centipede Demon’s words were not without reason; even if Azure Wood Heavenly Monarch was strong, it would be difficult for him to fight eight opponents alone.

Moreover, as the son of the Nascent Soul stage, Wanle True Monarch likely possessed many more trump cards.

How could he possibly withstand them with just the Little Azure Wood Sword?

The Ancient Cultivation Sect members shared similar thoughts.

Tang Yan said in a deep voice, “If Qi Jiuyang cannot produce more fifth-tier techniques, the righteous path will surely lose this battle!”

The others echoed his sentiments, agreeing with his words.

Li Chang’an remained silent, observing quietly.

The old tortoise quietly asked, “Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you think?”

“Fellow Daoist Tortoise, those eight Heavenly Blades shouldn’t be able to harm the Azure Wood Sword,”

Li Chang’an replied.

Hearing this, the old tortoise was somewhat surprised.

He truly didn’t understand where Li Chang’an’s confidence came from. Just then,   a soft sound suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.   ”Crack!”   This sound immediately attracted everyone’s attention.   Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.   ”It’s the Heavenly Blade in the middle.” “Eight Nascent Soul power

couldn’t   even suppress one of Azure Wood Heavenly Lord’s powers, just how strong is he?”   Many people looked astonished, finding it unbelievable.   True Monarch Wanle’s face was somewhat ugly, staring intently at the small Azure Wood Sword, as if he wished it would shatter immediately.   But the reality was quite the opposite.   The next instant.   The Heavenly Blade that had developed a crack exploded on the spot, turning into a shower of seven-colored light, dissipating between heaven and earth.   Only seven Heavenly Blades remained, continuing their confrontation with the small Azure Wood Sword.   Not long after…   Another celestial blade cracked.   ”Could this celestial blade also shatter?”   The crowd, both righteous and demonic, found it increasingly unbelievable.   This confrontation   was actually a battle of magic across vast distances between two Nascent Soul cultivators.   If their true forms were present, the outcome wouldn’t be significantly different.   In other words, if both were resurrected, Azure Wood Heavenly Lord could withstand the attacks of eight Blissful Heavenly Lords, and might even be able to kill one.   As everyone pondered this ,   a deafening explosion resounded through the heavens and earth.   ”Boom!”   As expected, that celestial blade also shattered.   Only six celestial blades remained.   Yet the Little Azure Wood Sword remained unscathed, showing no signs of damage.   A mere ten breaths later, another celestial blade shattered.   During this time,   the atmosphere on the demonic side grew increasingly heavy, while the righteous side’s momentum slowly rose.   Finally,   amidst the incomprehensible gazes of countless onlookers,   all the remaining celestial blades shattered simultaneously, vanishing into nothingness, as if they had never existed.   And the Little Azure Wood Sword remained unharmed!   ”Impossible!”   Wanle Zhenjun’s eyes were bloodshot, his expression extremely grim.   Senluo Laomo and the others fell silent.   The righteous path members all breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts filled with both shock and admiration.   Heisha Zhenjun sincerely praised, “Qingmu Tianjun, truly worthy of being the last Nascent Soul cultivator of this realm. Even in ancient times, he was probably one of the strongest.”   ”Yes, fortunately, we have the methods left behind by the Tianjun.”

Many righteous Nascent Soul cultivators secretly rejoiced.

Without this small green wooden sword, they wouldn’t have been able to withstand the demonic path’s Nascent Soul trump card.

Qi Jiuyang’s expression relaxed considerably, but a hint of worry lingered in his heart.

He suspected Wan Le had another trump card.

Sure enough,

Wan Le Zhenjun suddenly roared, his expression twisted.

“I refuse to believe I can’t shatter this wooden sword!”

As soon as he finished speaking, thirteen beams of spiritual light flew out of his storage bag in succession, each radiating Nascent Soul aura.

Under the shocked gazes of countless people, the thirteen beams of spiritual light gradually materialized.

Twelve of them were Nascent Soul decrees in the shape of scrolls, containing power identical to the Seven-Colored Heavenly Blade.

The last one was completely different.

It was actually a bone dragon composed of countless skeletons!

“Roar!”

The bone dragon roared, baring its fangs and claws, its aura reaching the fifth level, its eyes burning with eerie ghost fire, roaring as it charged towards the small green wooden sword.

The other twelve Nascent Soul decrees followed closely behind, surrounding and attacking the small green wooden sword.

The little green wooden sword seemed to sense the danger, suddenly humming as its sword intent soared into the sky!

Countless sword energies danced, transforming into a deafening storm that prevented the bone dragon and the Nascent Soul decree from getting close.

The two sides faced off, both frantically expending their power.

“Who will win this battle?”

Countless cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths were tense, anxiously awaiting the outcome.

The old demon Senluo secretly inquired, “Fellow Daoist Wanle, have you perhaps used all your trump cards?”

“That’s right!”

True Monarch Wanle’s voice was hoarse, a hint of madness flickering in his crimson eyes.

If this battle were lost, the demonic path would have no hope.

But he firmly believed he wouldn’t lose.

“That bone dragon’s strength is inferior to my father’s, only at the early fifth rank, but it’s not a wisp of power; it still retains half of its peak strength, enough to tear that wooden sword apart!”

Hearing this, the old demon Senluo and the others were shaken, looking at the bone dragon.

If Wanle’s words were true…

That skeletal dragon was equivalent to half a living early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!

Although Azure Wood Heavenly Lord was strong, he was ultimately just a wisp of power, and most likely couldn’t outlast the skeletal dragon.

Meanwhile,

Tang Yan was explaining the skeletal dragon’s origins to Li Chang’an.

“That skeletal dragon should be one of the former fifth-tier demon gods of my Netherworld Sect, the Bone-Transforming Nether Dragon!”

“When his lifespan was nearing its end, he left the sect to search for longevity treasures and never returned. I thought he had died in some dangerous place, but unexpectedly, he was refined into a puppet by Blissful Heavenly Lord.”

“Half of his power is contained within this skeleton…”

Through his explanation,

Li Chang’an gradually understood the skeletal dragon’s strength.

He couldn’t help but sigh, “That Blissful Heavenly Lord is quite good to his descendants, even arranging half a Nascent Soul protector for Wan Le.”

Tang Yan explained, “The Blissful Heavenly Lord has always been protective of his own, treating his descendants and disciples well. He often takes action against other juniors for the sake of his descendants, hence his poor reputation. He’s one of the worst-reputed Nascent Soul cultivators in our Netherworld Sect.”

As a core disciple of the Netherworld Sect, Tang Yan knew many rumors about Nascent Soul Heavenly Lords.

“It’s said that the Blissful Heavenly Lord’s bad reputation isn’t just because he often attacks juniors, but also because he once ambushed his master, murdered him, and stole his master’s life’s accumulated treasures; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage.”

As he was speaking,

two loud explosions suddenly rang out from the sky.

Two Nascent Soul decrees shattered, turning into nothingness in the world.

After a dozen breaths,

the remaining Nascent Soul decrees shattered one after another.

In the blink of an eye, only the Bone Dragon and the Green Wood Sword remained, facing each other.

“Why is the Azure Wood Sword still undamaged?”

Everyone was puzzled. Could it be that Azure Wood Heavenly Lord had become so powerful that he had surpassed the Nascent Soul realm?

Just then,

a soft sound suddenly rang out.

“Crack!”

After numerous confrontations and sieges, a crack finally appeared on the small green wooden sword.

Seeing this, True Monarch Wanle’s spirits lifted.

“Good, this sword will finally be shattered by me!”

Many Nascent Soul cultivators from the demonic path also breathed a sigh of relief.

“Although the green wooden sword is strong, it hasn’t transcended the Nascent Soul realm. Let’s see if Qi Jiuyang has more green wooden swords.”

“If he does, we’ll retreat immediately and abandon this battle!”

Their gazes shifted back and forth between Qi Jiuyang and the green wooden sword, quietly awaiting the outcome.

Not long after,

more cracks appeared on the green wooden sword.

“Crack—crack—”

Each crack made the righteous path members’ hearts tighten.

The small green wooden sword, like the previous seven-colored heavenly blades, seemed poised to shatter at any moment.

And the skull dragon’s aura remained strong, seemingly having expended little power.

If this continued,

the righteous path had absolutely no chance of victory!

Black Sand True Monarch couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Qi, do you truly have no more Nascent Soul foundation?”

“No, only this one.”

Qi Jiuyang’s expression was solemn as he shook his head slightly.

Hearing this, Black Sand and the other righteous Nascent Soul cultivators fell silent.

Cracks had spread across the entire blade of the small green wood sword, and it might shatter completely in the next instant, signifying the defeat of the righteous path.

But just then,

a deafening sword cry suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

“Clang—!”

The green wood sword shone brightly, its sword light dazzling, transforming into a stream of light, like a rainbow piercing the sun, instantly striking the skull of the bone dragon.

Boom!

The bone dragon howled, its skull shattering instantly!

The sword light did not pause at all, continuing to penetrate with overwhelming power, shattering section after section of bone, instantly piercing through the entire bone dragon!

The bone dragon completely perished, turning into countless fragments of bone.

This sudden scene was beyond everyone’s expectations.

“How is this possible?”

True Monarch Wanle roared, his blood-red eyes filled with disbelief.

With only a wisp of residual power, how could he possibly slay a bone dragon that retained half of its peak strength?

Before he could even figure it out,

the old demon Senluo beside him paled and grabbed him.

“Retreat!”

Not only him, but the other Nascent Soul demons were also filled with horror, frantically retreating.

The broken Azure Wood Sword, undiminished in speed, flew towards them all with terrifying Nascent Soul power after slaying the bone dragon.

“Boom!”

Upon reaching the demonic territory, the Azure Wood Sword exploded completely, the deafening roar shaking the heavens and earth.

Before the shocked eyes of countless cultivators on the righteous path, the remaining power of the Azure Wood Sword transformed into a storm, raging wildly across the demonic territory.

Instantly, countless demonic cultivators were slain, their bodies and souls obliterated in the storm before they could even scream.

However,

these demonic cultivators were only affected.

The main force of the Azure Wood Sword was aimed directly at Wanle Tianjun, chasing him into the heart of the demonic realm.

“Destroy!”

roared the old demon Senluo, as a billion souls flew out from behind him, transforming into a sea of souls, attempting to drown the last trace of power of the Azure Wood Sword.

But in the blink of an eye, the billion souls were completely annihilated, and that last trace of power hadn’t weakened much.

If nothing unexpected happened, he and True Monarch Wanle would surely be killed.

Just then,

a tall, slender figure appeared before them, casting a blazing talisman.

“Suppress!”

The talisman shone with dazzling golden light, unleashing a fifth-tier aura, colliding with the last trace of sword energy.

Boom!

The earth shook, the sun and moon lost their light, and the entire heart of the demonic path was blasted into a shocking abyss.

Everything around was annihilated, except for the tall, slender figure and Senluo and Wanle, who survived under the protection of the talisman.

Thus, the power of the Azure Wood Sword was completely exhausted.

The old demon Senluo breathed a sigh of relief, his face filled with lingering fear.

“Tianming, thank you so much.”

The one who saved him and Wanle was none other than True Monarch Tianming, who hadn’t shown himself until now!

True Monarch Wanle’s face was deathly pale, and his voice trembled slightly: “Tianming, thank goodness you were here, otherwise my fate would have been uncertain.”

“It’s good that you’re alright.”

Tianming’s expression was calm as he looked at the battlefield between the righteous and demonic forces before him.

Due to the rampant power of the Azure Wood Sword, most of the Nascent Soul cultivators on the demonic side had perished, and many fourth-tier cultivators had also been annihilated.

Countless Golden Core, Foundation Establishment, and Qi Refining cultivators had also died.

He and the two arrived at the battlefield, raised his hand, and summoned the souls of the dead.

“Do you all wish to go to the Cycle of Reincarnation, or do you wish to enter the Venerable Soul Banner?”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

One of them cupped his hands and said, “Fellow Daoist Tianming, please send us into reincarnation.”

“Alright.”

Although the Netherworld Soul Sect urgently needed to replenish its souls, Tianming did not force them, releasing everyone’s souls and allowing them to reincarnate.

The remaining people gathered together and confronted the righteous side again.

However,

their momentum was far less than before.

The combined Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the five major demonic sects had dwindled to just over twenty!

Of course, due to the earlier Blissful Heavenly Sound, the righteous path wasn’t faring much better.

Both sides had suffered heavy losses in this battle.

Neither side attacked again, merely maintaining a distance between them.

At this moment,

whether righteous or demonic, whoever could still unleash a fifth-tier trump card might have a chance of winning this battle.

The Old Demon Senluo asked, “Tianming, do you have any more fifth-tier techniques?”

“No,”

Tianming shook his head slightly.

“That fifth-tier talisman I obtained earlier was acquired by chance.”

Hearing this, many Nascent Soul cultivators felt a chill in their hearts, a sense of unease creeping in.

The demonic path has exhausted its fifth-tier methods! The

righteous path might still have some.

Meanwhile, the righteous path members were equally worried.

“That Tianming actually possesses fifth-tier talismans; I wonder how many he has,”

Black Sand True Monarch frowned, a hint of worry in his eyes.

The others remained silent, watching the demonic path members.

And so,

the entire world fell silent.

Both sides seemed to be waiting for the other to reveal more fifth-tier trump cards, waiting for a full half-hour.

Seeing this,

Li Chang’an guessed, “The demonic path probably doesn’t have any more fifth-tier resources either. The final outcome of this battle will depend on the fourth-tier resources of both sides.”

Both sides shared the same guess.

Finally,

Senluo Old Demon spoke first.

“Qi Jiuyang, did Qingmu only leave behind the Qingmu Sword?”

“Senluo, do you have any more of the methods of the Blissful Heavenly Monarch?”

Qi Jiuyang’s expression was calm, asking a question instead of answering.

Senluo Old Demon also did not answer.

At this point,

both sides were basically certain that the other side’s fifth-tier resources had been exhausted.

Qi Jiuyang surveyed the assembled righteous cultivators and said in a deep voice, “Everyone, if you still have any fourth-tier resources left, bring them out. This battle should be decided.”

“Alright!”

True Monarch Black Sand waved his hand, and several coffins flew out of his storage bag.

Several “bangs” were heard as the coffin lids flew off one after another.

Several fourth-tier refined corpses flew out of the coffins, the strongest of which had reached the mid-fourth tier!

Everyone present recognized them as several patriarchs of the Yellow Sand Sect.

“It is said that several patriarchs of the Yellow Sand Sect turned themselves into refined corpses, instructing their descendants to dig them out of the ground in times of life and death.”

“This rumor is indeed true!”

Everyone understood that this was the Yellow Sand Sect’s last trump card.

Black Sand would not have wanted to use its patriarchs unless absolutely necessary.

Subsequently,

True Monarch Bright Clouds used the last trump card of the Purple Cloud Sect.

More than ten fourth-tier mechanical cities appeared one after another, the strongest of which reached the mid-fourth tier and could contend with a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator.

After that, several fourth-tier old dragons with little lifespan left crawled out of the Azure Dragon Sect’s flying boat.

The White Tiger Sect took out several fourth-tier tiger demon flesh puppets.

The Vermilion Bird True Monarch opened his spirit beast pouch and released more than ten fourth-tier demonic plants.

These demonic plants were all discovered by generations of Vermilion Bird Sect cultivators in the Vermilion Bird Secret Realm, with the strongest being at the mid-grade of the fourth tier.

The Wang family and the Black Tortoise Sect still couldn’t produce any more resources.

Finally,

everyone’s gaze returned to Qi Jiuyang.

Qi Jiuyang did not disappoint them, unleashing dozens of fourth-tier resources in succession.

Among them were twelve half-human, half-dragon flesh puppets clad in precious armor, all of which were at the mid-grade of the fourth tier.

“These are the Great Qi Dragon Guards, treasures obtained by our Great Qi ancestors in a myriad races’ ruins,”

Qi Jiuyang introduced to everyone.

At the same time, the five demonic sects also took out their last resources.

Both sides had almost exhausted all their strength.

Before long,

the great battle broke out again!

Everyone understood that this was the final battle, and the time to decide the outcome had arrived.
