Terran Guardian - Chapter 3917

Chapter 3893 Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord

“Heavenly Inclined Sword Intent!”

Shen Changqing comprehended this kind of sword intent based on the rules of the Great Dao. The immense pressure of the collapsing universe was enough to shatter the minds of most cultivators.

This was no joke.

Without sufficient Dao heart and strength, let alone comprehending the Heavenly Inclined Sword Intent, even glimpsing it would be difficult.

To be precise,

this kind of Heavenly Inclined Sword Intent should be called the Heavenly Inclined Sword Dao.

This is because such power has already transcended the realm of sword intent and belongs to the supreme Great Dao.

The Mountain and Sea Sword Dao that Shen Changqing once comprehended was also a top-tier sword Dao.

However,

compared to the Heavenly Inclined Sword Dao, it was still somewhat inferior.

In the end,

even the strong who left behind the Mountain and Sea Sword Dao were not as strong as Tinglan Sword Venerable, much weaker than the ancient saintly immortal stele before him.

Now,

Shen Changqing abandoned all distracting thoughts and only focused on comprehending the rules of the Great Dao. He did not care too much about the affairs of the outside world.

…

As time passed,

the conflict in Nanyuan Daozhou intensified.

Blood rained down from the sky,

seemingly without end.

All forces are now bloodthirsty.

Ancient Great Saints and even those who have reached the Dao Venerable realm have emerged, resulting in fierce battles and the fall of many longevity-seeking experts.

However,

more forces continue to pour into Nan Yuan Dao Zhou.

To other immortal states, Nan Yuan Dao Zhou is now seen as a weakened and powerful force, and all cultivators are eager to exploit its weakened state to extract a significant advantage.

Many forces also hope to use this opportunity to reshuffle the power structure and seize control of Nan Yuan Dao Zhou.

After all, the four great immortal states possess profound foundations and cultivation environments unmatched by other immortal states; establishing a foothold in such a state is an unparalleled opportunity.

Initially, only a dozen or so immortal states participated, but the number has more than doubled.

Furthermore, forces from the Three Thousand Great Worlds have also flocked to the scene.

At this moment,

in the chaotic void…

Several figures clashed relentlessly, each strike capable of shaking the chaos, each aftershock capable of annihilating ancient stars and overturning boundless galaxies.

Upon closer inspection, one could discern one figure: Emperor Chen Daojun.

He and other powerful figures were now joining forces to besiege the white-haired Daoist, whose robes were stained with blood, his eyes blazing with fury.

“Do you truly intend to fight to the death with my Heavenly Fate Holy Land?!”

Emperor Chen Daojun roared, simultaneously unleashing a crimson jade disc from which the supreme Dao manifested, shattering the chaotic void and revealing the birth and death of stars.

Emperor Chen Daojun remained unmoved, raising his hand and unleashing a punch that obliterated everything with the rules of the Great Dao.

At his level, supernatural powers were second nature.

The power of the Three Thousand Great Daos was almost tangible.

“The Heavenly Mandate Holy Land has occupied Nan Yuan Dao Prefecture for many years; now it’s time to move.

The world’s affairs, when things reach their peak, must decline; this is an unchanging law since ancient times. Why can’t Fellow Daoist Heavenly Mandate see this?”

A Daoist spoke slowly, his words devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Upon   hearing this,

Daoist Heavenly Mandate’s face darkened.

“So, ‘when things reach their peak, they decline,’ it seems you are determined to be enemies of my Heavenly Mandate Holy Land!”   The other powerful figures remained silent, but their attacks spoke volumes.   Daoist Heavenly Mandate, as the patriarch of the Heavenly Mandate Holy Land, possessed undeniable strength.   But alas,   even the strongest fists cannot defeat four hands.   No matter how powerful Daoist Heavenly Mandate was, facing a siege from multiple Daoists, he ultimately had little chance of victory.   As time passed, Daoist Heavenly Mandate gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. Cracks appeared on the crimson jade disc in his hand, its Daoist aura dimmed, as if it might vanish at any moment.   At the same time   , the injuries on his body multiplied, golden blood flowing down, each drop containing the power to suppress eternity.   ”Boom!”   With Emperor Chen Daojun unleashing another punch, the crimson jade butterfly finally reached its limit, letting out a mournful cry before shattering.   The supreme treasure crumbled.   Heavenly Fate Daojun was struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming much weaker.   Seeing this, the other supreme beings exchanged glances, their three thousand Great Dao powers intertwining to seal off the chaotic void, all pressing down on Heavenly Fate Daojun.   Their purpose was simple:   to seize this opportunity and kill Heavenly Fate Daojun here in one fell swoop.   The latter’s expression was crazed, his eyes turning crimson, and he roared angrily, “Want to take my life? Let’s see if you have the ability!!”   In an instant,   Heavenly Fate Daojun’s pupils suddenly exploded, terrifying blood light piercing through the chaotic void, everything that touched the blood light was instantly annihilated.   When the other supreme beings felt this power, their expressions changed drastically; the intense threat made them instinctively try to avoid it.   But in that instant, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord seized the opportunity, his body transforming into nothingness, vanishing instantly into the vast chaos.   Everything happened in the blink of an eye.   By the time the other Supreme Beings reacted, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had already disappeared.   At this moment,   they exerted all their divine senses to search for his whereabouts.   Unfortunately,   nothing!   Nothing at all! The Heavenly Fate Dao Lord   seemed to have never existed, leaving not a trace of his presence.   Emperor Chen Dao Lord grasped at the air with his right hand, a drop of the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord’s remaining blood landing in his hand. Then he began to deduce the secrets of heaven.   A moment later,   Emperor Chen Dao Lord’s expression darkened slightly.   ”He severed his own heavenly secrets; we cannot deduce them!”   These words made the other Supreme Beings’ expressions also turn much uglier.   The Heavenly Fate Dao Lord was skilled in deduce the secrets of heaven; now that he had used supreme means to sever his own heavenly secrets, it was naturally difficult to deduce his whereabouts.

Let alone fellow Supreme Realm experts, even those at a higher level would find it difficult to deduce his whereabouts.

More importantly—

in this era, how easy is it to get a Dao Venerable to intervene?

Then,

a Supreme Realm expert, with a grave expression, said in a deep voice, “The Heavenly Mandate is not dead, this matter is somewhat troublesome!”

A Supreme Realm expert severely injured is a formidable threat.

They are now locked in a life-or-death struggle with the Heavenly Mandate Holy Land. If they could kill the Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord, things would be much easier.

But the problem is…

the Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord has escaped.

The threat posed by a Dao Lord lurking in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment, is unimaginable.

“As long as the Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord is alive, the Heavenly Mandate Holy Land cannot be destroyed. Let us cease hostilities for now—”

Emperor Chen Dao Lord slowly spoke, but before his words fell, his expression changed slightly.

The other Supreme Realm experts seemed to sense something as well, their expressions also changing.

“The Heavenly Mandate Holy Land… is destroyed!”

one Supreme Realm expert said, enunciating each word clearly.

Upon hearing this, the other Supreme Beings fell silent.

Long before they attacked the Heavenly Fate Supreme Being, their forces had joined together to attack the Heavenly Fate Holy Land. Their

initial plan was

for them, the Supreme Beings, to kill the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord, while their forces would annihilate the Heavenly Fate Holy Land – a two-pronged approach to eliminate

future troubles. But now the biggest problem was:

the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord wasn’t dead –

the Heavenly Fate Holy Land was destroyed instead.

This

made things much more complicated.

Emperor Chen Dao Lord took a deep breath, his eyes turning cold: “The die is cast. We cannot change this. Our only option now is to search for the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord’s whereabouts and completely annihilate him to prevent future troubles!

If the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord doesn’t die, we will all be in trouble!”

“That’s the only way for now—”

The other Supreme Beings exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

This was the only way.

The Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had to die.

Otherwise, no one could possibly remain on guard against an ancient Supreme Being forever.

If the opponent were to attack recklessly, no one below the Supreme Realm would be their match.

Such an existence would be like a dagger hanging overhead, ready to fall at any moment.

Then,

the several Supremes exchanged glances and vanished.

…

On the other side,

in a desolate star, a blood-stained body slowly emerged—it was none other than the fleeing Heavenly Fate Dao Lord.

His pupils were now empty, his eyeballs completely gone, but flesh slowly began to grow from them, and in a short while, his lost eyes had returned.

However, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord showed no joy.

“Emperor Chen… this matter is not over between you!”

he gritted his teeth.

To survive, he had not only expended much of his resources, but even his Destruction Dao Eye, cultivated for many years, had been completely destroyed.

To cultivate this supreme divine power, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had spent countless years and consumed countless rare and precious materials.

In the

end, all the accumulated resources of countless years were lost in one fell swoop. How could he not be furious?

But there was nothing he could do.

Compared to his own life, everything else was insignificant.

But at that moment,

as if sensing something, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord’s expression changed again, becoming ferocious.

The Heavenly Fate Holy Land had been destroyed!

In that instant, he felt the Holy Land’s demise.

As the founder of the Heavenly Fate Holy Land, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord was inextricably linked to its destiny, and now that it had been destroyed, he naturally noticed it immediately.

“We will fight to the death!”

The Heavenly Fate Dao Lord’s eyes were cold, but he did not immediately retaliate. His strength was greatly diminished, and he should focus on recovery.

Once his strength was fully restored, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord would act.

Even if he could not kill the other Supreme Beings, he would make them pay a heavy price.

With this thought in mind,

the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord swept his divine sense across the void and then headed towards the depths of chaos.

Although his current location was some distance from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, it was not far enough.

He was still alive, but the Heavenly Fate Holy Land had been destroyed. The Crimson Heaven Realm and other forces would never let him go. After all, with him alive, Emperor Chen and the others would be restless.

How could the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord not know the immense threat posed by a supreme being who would fight to the death?

Therefore,

for the sake of safety , the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had no choice

but to venture into the depths of Chaos to evade the pursuit of other forces.

Now, with his strength greatly diminished, he was not confident in dealing with other supreme beings.

Let alone encountering a siege from several supreme beings, even facing any one of them, the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had no confidence in resisting.

Not long after the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord left, the void rippled, and Emperor Chen Dao Lord’s figure appeared.

He swept his divine sense across the area, his gaze landing on the stars before him, and his expression darkened again.

“He ran quite fast!”

From the lingering aura, Emperor Chen Dao Lord was certain that the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord had indeed appeared here, but the other party clearly had no intention of staying.

Moreover,

the aura here had become extremely weak.

It was clear that

the other party had been gone for some time.

Upon realizing this, Emperor Chen Daojun flipped his hand, and a blood-red compass appeared.

This compass was called the Bloodline Compass.

It was forged by him using the bones of numerous cultivators from the Heavenly Fate Holy Land.

Although the cultivators of the Heavenly Fate Holy Land were not of Emperor Chen Daojun’s bloodline, the former cultivated the latter’s methods, and there was a causal connection between them.

Severing this causal connection completely was not an easy task.

It was precisely because of this that

Emperor Chen Daojun was able to find this place directly using this Bloodline Compass.

Then…

Emperor Chen Daojun activated the Bloodline Compass again, and the pointer on the compass spun wildly, showing no sign of stopping.

“The Bloodline Compass can’t deduce this; either Heavenly Fate has completely severed all causality, or the distance is too great, so great that even the Bloodline Compass can’t sense it!”

Looking at the Bloodline Compass before him, Emperor Chen Daojun’s expression turned cold.

Neither possibility was good for him.

Of course,

if it was the latter, then he still had a chance to find the other party.

But if it was the former, then it would be troublesome.

The vast chaos,

boundless and limitless.

Finding a Supreme Being was no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

As long as the other party deliberately concealed their aura, it would be enough to blind other forces.

“However, severing causality is not easy, let alone causality at this level. I don’t believe that you, Heavenly Fate, severely injured, can completely sever all causality in such a short time!”

Emperor Chen Daojun muttered to himself, then took a step forward, pursuing the depths of the chaos.

Now, nothing was more important to him than finding Heavenly Fate Daojun.

Even

the struggle for cultivation resources in Nan Yuan Dao Prefecture is less important than this matter.

A supreme being with whom there is no end is a threat far too great, enough to threaten the very foundation of the Crimson Heaven Realm.

What is the purpose of attacking Nan Yuan Dao Prefecture and vying for cultivation resources?

Ultimately,

it’s for the development of the Crimson Heaven Realm.

And no matter how much cultivation resources are fought for, they are useless before a supreme being.

If the opponent truly intends to target the Crimson Heaven Realm, a mere secret assassination of one or two Great Saints would be enough to cause the Crimson Heaven Realm considerable trouble.

Cultivating a Great Saint requires countless sacrifices.

But even a Great Saint is no match for a supreme being.

Moreover,

the Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord is no ordinary supreme being; he is a supreme expert with one foot in the Dao Venerable Realm.

Such a being could easily kill a Great Saint if he so desired.

Furthermore—

if the opponent recovers from his injuries in the future, even the Emperor Chen Dao Lord wouldn’t be confident of suppressing him in a one-on-one confrontation.

Besides…

The Crimson Heaven Realm has many enemies, with the Taiyi Immortal Sect particularly eyeing it covetously.

The threat posed by the addition of another Heavenly Fate Dao Lord is unimaginable.

Therefore,

Emperor Chen Dao Lord has set aside all other matters to find the Heavenly Fate Dao Lord and utterly eliminate him to prevent future troubles. (End of Chapter)
