Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 247 - Eternal Sword Descends!

"Even if I ignore Forbidden Fate, I can still swallow this volcano whole," Moon Fairy mused.

The corpse demon had already seen Yun Xiao's secret of merging human and demon, and even knew about the War Princess submitting to Yun Xiao! All the secrets were out in the open! This meant it was now the biggest risk to Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao liked to play it safe, no risks wanted. So, while his real self attended the Sword Baptism Ceremony, his body double stayed behind to clean up the mess, wiping out every threat to the Divine Continent's human race, and then seizing Demon Continent's second superweapon for his real self!

And that was crucial! The more terrifying the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, the more Yun Xiao craved the Demon Continent.

WHOOSH! Moon Fairy's robe billowed, tearing through the clouds and falling into the pale, white flames. This fire, born from corpses, blazed fiercely, a grim reminder of the countless lives lost here.

"Sure enough, I don't need to find Forbidden Fate. I just have to invade his territory, and he'll show himself!" Moon Fairy whirled around.

BOOM! A haze of black fog condensed, finally shaping into a dark figure. It was composed of over a dozen human and demon corpses, with the skinless head of the Violet Emperor still intact—now his only head. This monster, skinless, tongue lolling, eyes rolled back, was as creepy as creepy gets!

"What are you, exactly?!" Forbidden Fate hissed, bordering on hysteria.

"Not important." Moon Fairy smiled eerily, "What's important is, I'll destroy everything you and the demons have. I'll turn the Demon Continent into history."

"So, you're not really a demon." Forbidden Fate's skinless face twisted with hatred and a shiver of terror. Only a true monster could scare another monster.

"Right, I am Yun Xiao. Yun Xiao is me. From the beginning, it's all been me playing you," Moon Fairy said with a smile.

Hearing this, Forbidden Fate felt like he was struck by a thousand thunderbolts. His face, skinless, cracked open, twisting grotesquely. From the death of the Peacock Prince Kong Ming to the destruction of Violet Sky, and now Moon Fairy taking over Demon Continent... It was all Yun Xiao?

Thinking of the War Princess serving Yun Xiao, and the unity of humans, demons, and devils, Forbidden Fate completely lost it.

"I know all your secrets! If I tell them to those foreign Sword Cultivators, you're dead meat!" Forbidden Fate quickly regained his composure, radiating a bone-chilling malevolence.

"All my secrets? You're not even close." Suddenly, Moon Fairy spread his arms wide. The pale flames in the heart of the volcano buzzed and surged towards him. His Divine Desolation Physique, like an endless abyss, devoured them voraciously.

"You can directly absorb and break through with the Desolate Essence?!" Forbidden Fate's mind was in shambles. Why did such a monster exist? Despite being the most fearsome of demons, it possessed the soft appearance of the Fox Clan!

A corpse demon like him was now utterly terrified by these truths. What kept him going was nothing but the deepest core of resentment, a conglomeration of countless soulless corpses, a mutated soul himself. Without the support of the mountain of flesh and bones, this soul was incredibly fragile!

But, Forbidden Fate was not afraid! This resentful soul, impervious to Flying Swords, demon magic, or daoist spells, would always reassemble, no matter how much he was weakened. Even if scattered, he could reform, drawing strength from his birthplace, the Forbidden Fate Volcano. He couldn't die!

"Yun Xiao, your skills reach the heavens, but alas, you're too fond of showing off, squandering your advantage." Forbidden Fate's voice was icy as he turned, disappearing into the pale white flames.

"Really? What if I'm absolutely certain I can annihilate you?" Moon Fairy replied, his voice turning even icier.

Forbidden Fate shuddered! A bizarre power that made him tremble suddenly locked onto him! It whirled around! Behind him, the countless flames formed a ghastly pale vortex!

In the center of this vortex, a silver-white fox raised its chin high, its presence as if emerging from the deepest abyss of the universe. Its silver-white eyes shimmered with an ancient, indifferent cold.

BUZZ! Just then, it opened its mouth! There was a vortex inside its mouth!

"Huh?!" Forbidden Fate suddenly realized he couldn't move! Not only that, but he was also being sucked in by Moon Fairy!

"No!" he screamed. What kind of power was this? He had no idea. It seemed like some sort of demon magic! But this was no fox's illusion magic, and it was beyond Forbidden Fate's comprehension.

SIZZLE SIZZLE SIZZLE! During this, his body, made of corpses, melted away like ice under the sun, leaving only a resentful corpse soul behind.

This soul felt like it was drowning, sinking deeper and deeper! The more it struggled, the faster it sank! It howled madly, scrambling and rolling, its voice filled with confusion, bewilderment, and terror.

The Creator Immortal's power was beyond its wildest dreams.

"In the battle of the Heavenly Realm, you were already 99% dead. Just a corpse demon, did you really think you were immortal?" Moon Fairy's chilling voice, in that final moment, shattered Forbidden Fate's last heartstring. In that instant, all his resentment turned to fear, fundamentally changing his nature. When a wronged soul was dominated by fear, it would lose its essence!

"I'm telling you again. The Demon Continent's fate is to perish," Moon Fairy said coldly.

"Is this the decree of the heavens?" Forbidden Fate wailed.

"No, it's my decision." As this last icy sentence echoed in Forbidden Fate's ears, his soul completely plunged into the vortex in the demon fox's mouth, vanishing into oblivion.

GULP! Moon Fairy closed his mouth, transforming back into human form. Forbidden Fate's cries of terror dissipated completely within the vast volcano.

"Whew!" Moon Fairy relaxed his shoulders, speaking to the air, "You were right. This second demon magic, born from the Will of Divine Desolation, is quite effective." He was addressing Blue Star and Red Moon.

This second demon magic was named 'God Devourer'! It was one of the original demon magics of one of the Six Ancestral Gods, the Divine Desolation Demon God!

Upon reaching the Awakened Demon Emperor Realm, this magic gradually awakened and strengthened. Its essence was fascinating; it absorbed resentment and converted it into demonic power. While it couldn't bolster the physical body, it significantly strengthened his sacred demonic power.

"With Forbidden Fate gone, I can finally relax." Moon Fairy's fiery eyes gazed down at the ghastly pale fire and magma below. "Now, let's see how far all this Desolate Essence in this volcano will take me."

ι══????????══ι?

Eternal Sword Prison! A vast world, ten times larger than the Divine Continent. And yet, it was just one-ninth of the Nine Hells. So, the Nine Hells were a hundred times the size of the Divine Continent, a truly complete cosmos with a comprehensive system!

In the Eternal Sword Prison, everyone practiced the Sword Dao. And the pinnacle of swordsmanship, naturally, was the Sword Ruins!

"The spiritual energy of this Eternal Sword Prison is even higher than the Heavenly Realm after the fall of the great cosmos immortals," Yun Xiao mused.

This was to be expected. The Divine Continent was just a fold in the vast expanse of the Nine Hells. Aside from the Heavenly Realm and some blessed lands like the lower realms, it was hard for even a Dragon Spring Realm cultivator to be born.

The group, each with their own thoughts, traveled in silence.

As Moon Fairy annihilated Forbidden Fate, Yun Xiao, following the aloof Bai Qingxue on her Sovereign Sword, had already passed through the world channel, arriving at the Sword Ruins!

Yun Xiao, trailing behind the crowd, looked up.

HUM! Before him, clouds and mist abounded! Beyond the mist, a blazing sun burned, its flames scorching the sky! And within the fiery flames of this sun, stood 999 towering swords!

Each one stood tens of thousands of meters tall! They were sharp, majestic, boundless! Countless clouds wrapped around these towering swords, even transforming into billions of tiny misty swords, swirling around them, creating an ancient chorus of sword hums!

This sight was new only to Yun Xiao. As someone from a mortal background, he couldn't help but be astounded.

"This is the true holy land of swordsmanship!" Yun Xiao exclaimed inwardly.

Compared to the Sword Ruins, places like Azure Spirit and the Sea of Swords were mere villages and towns. And the towering Sword Heaven was merely one of the many highrises here. The Sword Ruins were a true super sect of swordsmanship!

"These 999 swords... they're not real swords, but sword-shaped mountains?" Yun Xiao muttered. As he got closer, the swords appeared even larger, and he saw more clearly.

The 999 sword-shaped mountains, where countless Sword Cultivators practiced and dueled... This was the Eternal Sword Prison, the Sword Ruins!

"The Sword Baptism Ceremony is about to begin. Everyone, head to the altar now!" A voice as cold as a blade echoed across the lands.

Yun Xiao hadn't even approached yet when he saw over a hundred thousand talented Sword Cultivators from all corners of the Eternal Sword Prison. They turned into graceful streaks of sword light across the sky, heading towards the entrance of the Sword Ruins!

Among these countless young dreamers rushing to the Sword Ruins, many were on par with Gu Baiyi's disciple, Qian Die.

This broadened Yun Xiao's horizons.

"Indeed, the greater the realm, the more levels there are!" Yun Xiao mused.

And all this, thanks to the Creator Immortal. The Creator Immortal established the system, set the levels, differentiated the tiers of beings, and personally crafted several pathways to the pinnacle.

All beings were climbing this staircase. The higher a being, the more control they had over the fate of those below! And now, Yun Xiao was climbing this ladder too!

"There are so many Seeds of Creation," Yun Xiao muttered. Looking at these diverse and talented Sword Cultivators, he was like a hungry wolf entering a flock of sheep. Although these sheep were tall and strong, they were also tempting!

"But for now, this sheep seems the fattest!" Yun Xiao glanced at Ling Chen beside him. This Divine Sky Sword Emperor was already eagerly anticipating the Sword Baptism Ceremony.

Today was the most important moment in the life of every Eternal Sword Prison disciple! From now on, whether they would reach the heavens or fade into obscurity depended on the Eternal Sword!

For countless years, generations of young Sword Cultivators had gathered here... In a single day, some became legends, while others left in obscurity. It was the cruelest day of destiny!

Nervousness was evident on the faces of every young Sword Cultivator. Even Bai Wuque, from a noble background, was nervous! Luckily, his mother, Bai Qingxue, was there to soothe him before leading them to the altar, into the sea of people.

In the Sword Ruins ahead, countless powerful figures watched from the sky.

"The Eternal Sword has descended..." A shout that stirred the hearts of tens of thousands.
