Floating Immortal Order

Chapter 274: Sliver of Consciousness From a Xiantian Being

TL: Sponsored chapter (3/5)

Qi Taiqing's primordial spirit burned fiercely, destroying the Three-Petaled Spirit Sealing Array in moments and causing nearby space to twist slightly. Just as Xu Disheng activated the Mirror Bodhi, transforming it into a nine-petaled lotus platform projection that enveloped his body for protection, he was already engulfed in the azure divine light, completely submerged in the next moment.

Amidst the pervasive violet light in this monstrous and multicolored corner of the world, Xu Disheng sat quietly with his eyes closed, surrounded by strands of violet immortal light.

Upon closer inspection, one would see that his body was not truly present, but was instead a faint violet projection. His thirty-six meridians were transparent and visible, his golden true spirit and the Paramount Ancient Bell floating above his head, revolving with mystical, divine brilliance.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Xu Disheng's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he abruptly opened his eyes.

A hint of bewilderment appeared in his eyes, but after absorbing and comprehending the vast amount of memories that suddenly appeared in his mind, he gradually regained his senses and understood the entire situation.

The origin of a Primordial Spirit stage was extremely powerful. Each Primordial Lord was considered a genius capable of wresting away the power of heaven and earth. Without significant fortune and perseverance, it was impossible to reach the Primordial Spirit stage.

Qi Taiqing had completely ignited all of the origin of his previously intact primordial spirit, generating an unparalleled force capable of annihilating over a hundred ordinary Divine Core stage cultivators!

Qi Taiqing harbored extreme hatred towards Xu Disheng, so under his subconscious guidance, the majority of the destructive power from burning his source was directed at Xu Disheng. He intended to obliterate the soul of this supreme demon who had slaughtered dozens of Divine Core stage cultivators from the Profound Sky Sword Sect.

Despite being protected by the Mirror Bodhi, a Profound Treasure, Xu Disheng's Divine Core stage cultivation base couldn't fully unleash the true power of this protective treasure. The power of the ignited primordial spirit directly overpowered Xu Disheng's control over the Mirror Bodhi, utterly obliterating his body into countless pieces.

Just as the annihilative force was about to devour Xu Disheng's soul, the Immortals innate violet qi trembled slightly and then brought away Xu Disheng's true spirit and soul. He instantly vanished, spared from the fate of complete destruction.

"This is the last strand of innate violet qi from the remnants of the Floating Immortal Heaven."

An ancient and desolate voice directly entered Xu Disheng's mind.

Xu Disheng stood up, surveying the peculiar violet world around him. "May I ask if Senior is an Immortal being? And where is this place?"

The ancient voice seemed to chuckle, responding, "I am a wisp of consciousness of the heavenly spirit of Floating Immortal Heaven. Indeed, this place is within that strand of violet qi."

Xu Disheng's confusion deepened, but he did not rashly inquire further. Instead, he stood there quietly, observing the strange scenery within the innate violet qi.

"The Floating Immortal Heaven is already in ruins, but due to the supreme laws of heaven and earth, as long as the force of predestined fate does not completely vanish, Floating Immortal Heaven will never be completely destroyed."

"Several eons ago, a being in the Immortal Court prophesied that Floating Immortal Heaven would fall, the shackles of predestined fate would break, and the entire Immortal Race would sink into the abyss, their true spirits obliterated."

"Yet, another prophecy was left behind, stating that after countless years, a being born of predestined fate would emerge to repair the Immortal Path, re-establish the Immortal Court, take control of predestined fate once more, and achieve the realm embodying the Supreme Will of Heaven."

"Since your accidental birth during the clash between the avatar of Lord Buddha of Sah Heaven and the Paramita Bodhisattva, the remaining force of predestined fate within Floating Immortal Heaven has subtly stirred. The heavenly spirit has been watching you, and all clues have directly identified you as the being from the prophecy. Thus, that wisp of consciousness belonging to the heavenly spirit of Floating Immortal Heaven brought the last remaining strand of innate violet qi of the Immortal Race to the Human Realm, sacrificing itself to protect your Dao. This sliver of consciousness was also the reason for my existence."

"If you are willing to abide by predestined fate, I will use this strand of innate violet qi to reshape your body into an Immortal Body. The remaining force of predestined fate within Floating Immortal Heaven will protect you from afar until you achieve the realm embodying the Supreme Will of Heaven and take control of the shackles of predestined fate."

Xu Disheng stared at the rapidly changing myriad of lights before him, a rare look of blankness in his eyes.

From his birth in the Chu realm to the present day in the Dawndusk Territory, over a hundred years had passed, yet he had always lived like a lost soul, without any real happiness.

In the Shangqing Sacred Sect, other disciples would leap for joy over a few spirit stones. Even prodigies like He Junyu and Zhang Yangui would feel joy over their achievements, each pursuing their happiness.

Even Li Xuanji, who occasionally left the Profound Depth Spiritual World to explore, enjoyed riding the half-step Primordial Spirit stage Cloud Soaring Luan and flaunting his power.

But regardless of what he gained or lost, Xu Disheng remained indifferent to everything. His bearing had been influenced by the Paramita Bodhisattva's true spirit and the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda. He had never truly felt happy, not even for a moment.

But did that matter?

Once this path was embarked upon, there was no turning back.

Xu Disheng's true Dao Path had never changed.

Although he was lonely, being the sole sovereign of heaven and earth, confining countless beings within the shackles of predestined fate without escape, aligned with the Dao of Heaven.

After all, at the dawn of primordial chaos, the sovereigns of heaven and earth were the Floating Immortal Heavens Immortal Race. All the living beings from the three heavens and nine realms, under the jurisdiction of the Sah Heaven and the Heavenly Court, had been striving to break free from the oppression of the Immortals. They had been truly defying heaven.

Ensuring everything returned to being under the shackles of predestined fate, not allowing any being besides himself to transcend itthat was Xu Disheng's true Dao Path.

Nowadays, the beings who had wrested free from the shackles of predestined fate faced practically no obstacles in their cultivation, and the number of living beings with eternal life was increasing. The vastness of heaven and earth was beginning to feel the burden, with signs of a looming calamity.

If the prophecy was fulfilled, he would become the sole sovereign of heaven and earth. He would strip the countless beings of their lifespan to serve as his sustenance as he reigned supreme. He would be the only order under heaven and earth, bestowed with true immortality.

Besides, for Xu Disheng, solitude and loneliness had long become a type of enjoyment for him.

Without needing to speak, the consciousness of Floating Immortal Heaven already understood all of Xu Disheng's thoughts. "Heaven and earth are impartial; there is order to all living beings. The fate of all beings has already been preordained, allowing no desecration or resistance. Your birth, though seemingly accidental, was actually inevitable."

After a pause, the ancient voice continued, "You were born of the predestined fate of heaven and earth. You must absolutely keep in mind to never truly indulge in emotionsthe seven emotions and six desires. If you do, the force of predestined fate upon you will completely shatter."

"The remaining force of predestined fate in Floating Immortal Heaven will now fully empower you. Once you indulge in the seven emotions and six desires, the nascent form of the Supreme Will of Heaven within you will also shatter, never to recover, and this world will be completely controlled by the countless living beings of this world."

"With how things are now, all have the opportunity to live, any being can transcend, and any race has the opportunity to achieve the Dao. These actions are in complete defiance of predestined fate, a rebellion opposing the natural order."

"Predestined fate dictates that all things should not have any opportunity to live forever, and they can only follow the path laid out by fate; no being can stand above it, destined to struggle within the shackles of predestined fate; no one can achieve the Dao, except for the sole sovereign of heaven and earth controlling predestined fate."

"Remember, you must never indulge in the seven emotions and six desires. Once the nascent form of the Supreme Will of Heaven shatters, the broken Floating Immortal Heaven, which has existed for time eternal, will lose its remaining force of predestined fate. It will then lose a part of the protection from the heavenly laws, and it will completely crumble, leaving the world without predestined fate for eternity."

As the voice faded, Xu Disheng's fluctuating shadowy figure was engulfed by the surging light around him. Amidst the circulation of Immortal light, a perfect form gradually took shape, materializing before him.

The consciousness of Floating Immortal Heaven used this strand of innate violet qi to reshape Xu Disheng's body into an Immortal Body!

This strand of violet qi completely merged with Xu Disheng, becoming inseparable from him from this moment forth.

Dressed in a moon-white Daoist robe emitting a faint glow, Xu Disheng was constantly suffused with a violet spiritual essence, his eyes as deep as the sea. With each step, he flickered in and out of this world filled with violet light.

After he left, this world of light and shadow, whose actual location was unknown, also collapsed with a loud rumble, vanishing into who knows where.

Was this place really within the innate violet qi, as the consciousness of Floating Immortal Heaven said?

Profound Sky Sword Sect.

A thick scent of blood permeated the atmosphere. The once flourishing and majestic large-scale sword sect was now dead silent. Only some cultivators from small and medium-scale sects and clans, and some strong rogue cultivators were flying among the piled corpses, occasionally stopping to scavenge for some possibly overlooked spiritual items or cultivation resources.

After Qi Taiqing's ignited the origin of his primordial spirit and perished, the Divine Core stage cultivators of the Profound Sky Sword Sect that remained were few, and they were unable to withstand the remaining dozens of Divine Core stage cultivators from the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance. Shao Huangnian ordered the extermination of all Dao Foundation stage and Sea of Qi stage disciples of the Profound Sky Sword Sect, leaving no survivors!

Apart from a few Profound Sky Sword Sect disciples who were away at the time, the large-scale sect had been completely annihilated. This became the accomplishments of the Divine Core stage Spirit Masters of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance.

There were some items that the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance didnt see value in and left behind, which attracted numerous small and medium forces, who were eager to scavenge for their share.

Indeed, some managed to gather quite a few spiritual resources, but as they attempted to leave secretly, they were discovered by others, leading to further conflicts.

Only after several medium-scale forces arrived and agreed to search separately was another such bloodbath avoided.

Zhang Duoyu had his head lowered as he rummaged through the towering pile of corpses belonging to the some Sea of Qi stage disciples from the Profound Sky Sword Sect. He occasionally found either damaged or intact storage Spirit Tools, managing to quickly reap quite a harvest.

Bian Wanting was his emotional pillar, but after witnessing his fiance currying favor with him and even proactively offering herself to Bai Lang, his heart turned to ash. He had considered ending his own life several times but ultimately lacked the courage.

Wandering aimlessly away from the Spirit Sword Sect, the hate he had forcibly suppressed began to burn fiercely. Endless resentment and murderous intent boiled within him like magma, constantly corroding his heart as countless negative emotions completely submerged his mind.
