Chapter 1828: Taking the Sky Down
There were many secrets at Grand Mystic Mountain that no one was privy to such as the path to eternal life and the shackles of heaven and earth.
Also, no one knew how profound the Unholy One’s cultivation was. The world only knew that his cultivation path was unique, allowing him to break the shackles and achieve immortality. A select few also knew he had been to the Great Maelstrom and obtained many treasures such as Buddhist relics, the Great Void Token, the four power cores, the Ten Classics, and so on. These were one of the reasons he was able to rise to the peak.
Apart from that, there were rumors about one of the Unholy One’s treasures. It was said that the treasure was a treasure that surpassed all treasures. However, no one had seen the Unholy One using it so no one knew what it looked like. That was the reason it stayed only a rumor.
When Ming Xin saw the dazzling streak of light shot into Lu Zhou’s hand, an ominous feeling rose in his heart immediately. Moreover, he could feel that Lu Zhou’s aura had changed, and shockingly, the laws in the surroundings actually retreated on their own.
Lu Zhou felt the familiar cold of Unnamed in his hand. Unnamed had finally returned to him. Previously, when he went to the abyss, he had sensed that Unnamed was absorbing energy and growing. During the time when Unnamed was not with him, he had tried summoning it back, but all his attempts failed. In fact, he had also tried to summon Unnamed when he first arrived at the Sacred Region. Nonetheless, he was not worried. He inexplicably knew that Unnamed would definitely return to him and that Unnamed would not return until the time was right.
When Lu Zhou sensed the energy within Unnamed, he could not help but sigh in admiration.
Unnamed was ice-cold to the touch. Its blade was incomparably sharp. When it reverted to its original form, it looked like a dazzling rough diamond. Its spirituality was very strong and perfectly in tune with Lu Zhou. As long as Lu Zhou willed it, it would do as Lu Zhou wished.
Lu Zhou continued to study Unnamed’s change. It was spinning in his hand at this moment.
Swoosh!
At this moment, a circular crack appeared in the space above Lu Zhou’s hand. Following that, Unnamed stopped moving and suddenly turned into an exquisite longsword.
Lu Zhou tightened his grip around Unnamed before he swept his gaze across the Templars. At the same time, blue electric arcs emerged from his hand and covered the sword.
At this time, a familiar feeling returned.
An unprecedentedly terrifying killing intent swept through the entire Sacred Region and the sky.
......
The cultivators in the Sacred Region cowered in fear immediately.
Ming Xin frowned. At this moment, he felt an inexplicable danger and instantly unleashed a sky-piercing energy seal as he shouted, “Great Stone!”
The ten pillars of light swayed, shaking heaven and earth. Then, a huge amount of energy surged out from the ten humongous lotuses.
Lu Zhou waved his hand nonchalantly and tossed the Heavenly Dao Flag out.
The Heavenly Dao Flag burst forth with light that illuminated the entire sky immediately, dispelling the Great Stone of Natural Law’s power.
Realization dawned on Ming Xin at this time. “It’s from the Great Maelstrom?”
Then, Ming Xin immediately waved his sleeve.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
More than half of the Templars in the air surrounded Lu Zhou.
At the same time, a large group of cultivators from the Sacred Region flew into the sky and surrounded Lu Zhou as well.
Lu Zhou’s expression remained the same. He did not even spare those people a glance. Instead, he stared at Ming Xin and said, “Very good. Let’s use them to test how sharp this sword is.”
Lu Zhou took a step forward in the air, moving toward Ming Xin.
At this time, a Templar brought his shining avatar out and rushed to stop Lu Zhou.
Those at the side widened their eyes as they looked at the calm Unholy One.
Lu Zhou suddenly flashed before he raised his hand and pointed Unnamed forward.
Unnamed immediately launched a long and narrow dark blue energy sword that shrouded it.
Swoosh!
The energy sword easily pierced through the Templar’s avatar.
The air froze.
The Templar’s eyes widened in shock in disbelief as he turned back to look at his avatar. Its chest was already pierced by Unnamed’s energy sword. When he took a deep breath, he felt a sharp pain in his chest as though his heart was being ripped apart. He endured the pain and looked at the spot where his avatar was stabbed, slowly moving his gaze. He saw the long and narrow blue energy sword, and the power of the laws that retreated to the side. His gaze continued to travel along the energy sword until he saw the Unholy One holding the other end of the sword.
There was nary a ripple on Lu Zhou’s face, as though everything was within his expectations. He casually withdrew his hand, pulling out the energy sword.
Swoosh!
Then, the Templar’s avatar shattered into spots of light like stars in the sky. Subsequently, the Templar spat out a mouthful of blood before his vision went dark.
Just like cutting grass, Lu Zhou easily killed the Templar.
At this time, Ming Xin looked at the sword in Lu Zhou’s hand with a grim expression on his face.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
One after another, avatars appeared, standing proudly in the sky. They were all divine emperors’ avatars.
If one looked up from the nine domains, one would find that the avatars looked like huge stars shining in the sky.
A Templar flew out with his avatar at lightning speed.
Lu Zhou raised his hand and brought it down in an almost leisurely manner.
Then, the Templars watched as energy swords descended from the sky and pierced an avatar as though the avatar was a piece of tofu.
This move was simple and neat.
Due to their speed, when the energy swords from Unnamed slashed at the avatar, for a moment, it was as though nothing had happened. The Templar and the avatar froze in confusion, not feeling anything. Then, crisp cracking noises rang in the air before the huge avatar that many people admired split into two. A line appeared on the avatar’s glabella, traveling down and splitting it in half.
There was no great fanfare and no pain as the Templars fell from the sky.
“...”
Fear, much stronger than before, spread from the scene in the sky above the Sacred Region.
The weapon in Lu Zhou’s hand made everyone shudder as goosebumps rose on their skin. At this time, most of them had the same thought in mind.
‘The Unholy One… is as powerful as ever. No! He’s even stronger than before!’
At this time, Ming Xin tried his best to suppress his fluctuating emotions. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. He closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, he said, “Now is the time for all of you to show me your stance!”
The Templars’ eyes widened slightly, losing their calm at this moment. Death awaited in front of them and behind them so they could only fight.
Ming Xin waved his sleeve.
A few Templars led the charge. The others followed behind them. They looked like shooting stars in the sky as they flew toward the only blue light in the sky.
Lu Zhou moved.
The Templars were blinded by Lu Zhou’s dazzling light, making it difficult for them to see clearly. They only vaguely saw the 10,000-foot-long energy sword sweeping back and forth in the sky.
A figure flitted past the Templars as the energy sword continued to reap lives, causing the sky to tremble and the void to shatter.
From the nine domains, a lone streak of light could be seen moving back and forth as it cut down the huge twinkling stars in the sky.
At this moment, it seemed as though Lu Zhou could easily cut the sky into three parts if he so wished.
No one in the Sacred Region could see clearly. All they knew was that not long after the energy sword started moving, the sky shattered, and the laws were rendered useless. Then, blood began to fall like rain on the Sacred Region.
On the ground in the bustling and grand Sacred Region, some cultivators who were dressed in white robes tried to keep the blood at bay by mobilizing their energy. However, they very quickly discovered that the blood did not seem to be bound by the law and landed on their spotless white robes.
The horrifying silence was soon broken by screams of shock and horror as severed limbs fell from the sky onto some of the cultivators.
With this, some cultivators seemed to have lost their minds and began to run away.
In just a brief moment, chaos descended on the Sacred Region.
The Templars, who once maintained the peace in the Sacred Region and the balance in the world, were all annihilated in one fleeting moment.
Thump!
Guan Jiu’s body trembled, and he fell to his knees. He raised his head and allowed the rain of blood to fall on his face. No one could tell if he was upset, regretful, or both. He kept muttering, “Sin… This is a sin… This is a sin…”
Back in the sky, Ming Xin’s face twitched a few times as he watched the Templars die. In the next moment, he finally moved.
This was the first time in their lives that the cultivators in the Sacred Region had seen Ming Xin making a move.
At the same time, the Sky Encompassing Mirror flew to the top of the Towers of Heaven and began to project the scene here.
…
The ten disciples, who were bound by the pillars of light, looked up at the sky in disbelief as they called out, “Master…”
…
At this time, during the critical moment, the four divine emperors, Shang Zhang; Bai Zhaoju; Chi Biaonu; and Ling Weiyang, finally arrived at the Sacred Region in four different directions. Their arrivals were like the gods descending to the mortal world as they manifested their avatars one after another. They looked at Ming Xin in shock when Ming Xin’s figure turned illusory.
Ming Xin had already arrived in front of Lu Zhou. In just a blink of an eye, he unleashed hundreds of energy seals.
Lu Zhou waved his hand, dealing with the energy seals.
The two strongest experts known to the cultivation world soared into the sky as the laws collided.
Lu Zhou waved his sword, cutting away the power of the law.
On the other hand, Ming Xin held the scales in his hand as he kept tearing through space to dodge Unnamed’s energy swords that were not bound by the laws.
…
The four divine emperors’ eyes followed the two figures up into the sky. They were shocked.
Ling Weiyang said, “I didn’t expect Brother Lu and Ming Xin to be this powerful!”
“Unbelievable! Are they really just divine emperors with nine light disks?”
Just as these words were said…
Boom!
18 light disks collided with each other! The force from the collision sparked energy seals that looked like dazzling fireworks in the sky.
…
Si Wuya, who was still bound by the pillar of light, looked at the fierce battle projected in the sky as he muttered to himself, “Master’s strength has far surpassed what it was in the past! But Ming Xin… is also not the same as the Ming Xin of the past…”
At this time, all the things Si Wuya had read about the Unholy One and Ming Xin in ancient records kept appearing in his mind.
…
Boom!
After a thunderous explosion, everyone saw a black hole in the sky. It was as though the sky had opened its eyes. Apart from that, they also discovered that Lu Zhou and Ming Xin had… vanished into thin air.
The four divine emperors frowned and flew up. After looking around, they confirmed the sky was empty.
Everyone was still confused, wondering where the duo went, when the commotion from a fierce fight rang from the direction of the Unknown Land.
The four divine emperors and Lu Zhou’s ten disciples looked in the direction of the Unknown Land and only saw two orbs of light flying in the sky of the new Unknown Land. Everywhere the two orbs of light went, they left destruction in their wake, turning everything to dust.
The fight made people’s blood boil!
The duo fought from Dunzang to Ji Ming. Then, from Ji Ming, they fought to the Great Abyss Land.
Everything was like tofu in front of the energy swords that flew in the sky.
The ground was riddled with holes and covered by debris and rubble, and after six hours of fierce fighting, grid-like patterns left by the energy swords could be seen on the ground.
Ming Xin was very focused, and he kept mobilizing the power of the laws. At this time, he shouted, “Unholy One, even if you’re stronger than before, you still can’t defeat me!”
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “You’ll have to speak to the sword in my hand about that.”
“You won’t be able to take me down!”
“Let alone you, even if it’s heaven, if it defies me, I’ll still be able to take it down,” Lu Zhou said. Then, he suddenly flashed. He tore through space, using the great power of teleportation to return to the Sacred Region.
Lu Zhou appeared in the sky of the Sacred Region. He looked down at the Sacred Region and pointed his longsword down as he said in a powerful and sonorous voice, “I’ll start by taking the Sacred Region down first!”
“...”
When the Unholy One’s voice fell, countless cultivators in the Sacred Region hurriedly flew up into the sky in desperation and fear.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
However, when the cultivators arrived at the area where the Heavenly Dao Flag and the Great Stone of Natural Law were at a deadlock, they were stopped from advancing by an invisible force and plummeted to the ground.
Despair appeared on the cultivators’ faces as they looked up at the Unholy One in the sky who had already raised the Great Dao’s Heart.
Lu Zhou wielded the sword with both hands.
Buzz!
In just a blink of an eye, an energy sword appeared around Unnamed instantly. It grew rapidly, reaching an unknown length.
Upon seeing this, the four divine emperors’ eyes widened in shock. They kept their eyes focused, determined to see how the shocking sword would destroy the Sacred Region.
Swoosh!
Unnamed cut the sky open!
Then, as Unnamed fell toward the Sacred Region, the mysterious crack in the sky snaked down toward the Sacred Region as well!
