Chapter 1379: Chapter 808: Shen Puts His Life on the Line for the Future of the 3 Immortal Sects

Boom——

The pitch-black universe suddenly spread, as if an existence above the high heavens had opened its eyes within the heavy curtain of clouds.

Accompanied by a sudden clap of thunder, the Emperor and the True Buddha lifted their heads. The Seventy-two Cave Golden Immortals and the Great Freedom Bodhisattvas all turned pale, while the ordinary Third-rank Disciples had long felt that persistent dread, their minds trembling violently, as if their entire bodies were about to shatter.

The Great Dao has fifty, but one is hidden.

And that which is hidden, evolves into the Myriad Laws of the world, called the Heavenly Dao. It is like a silent giant beast, an Ice Mountain, and the Cultivators follow the path of the Myriad Laws like a staircase, approaching it step by step. This process is deduced as the path of the Dao.

To ascend to the Second Rank is to successfully enter the body of this giant beast, like an ant residing in its shell, thereby protected by it, achieving the state of being Undying and Undying.

But that’s all there is.

To awaken this giant beast, even to draw upon part of the power of the "Dao", there is only one way, which is to abandon its protection and make an Immortal Oath and Grand Wish.

And now, the Xuan Shang Taoist Monarch in the heavens was revealing to the thousands of disciples of two sects... precisely the power of the Heavenly Dao.

This is an Immortal Vow Golden Immortal!

Inexplicably, a sense of fear emerged in everyone’s hearts, aside from the awe towards the Heavenly Dao, there was also terror towards Shen Yi himself.

One cultivator’s ability to conceal—just look at the person before you to understand.

From an Immortal Vow Golden Immortal, second only to the Emperor True Buddha, disguised as a Third-rank Disciple, luring out the Bodhi Sect disciples step by step, until confronting a whole eight Great Freedom Bodhisattvas, the crowd finally discovered that he had even deeper foundations concealed.

Just like the dark universe overhead, seemingly within reach, but once you truly have that thought, stepping into it, you’ll suddenly realize there’s no end.

"This isn’t good; it’s a trap!"

The Great Freedom Bodhisattvas, who had displayed killing intent just moments ago, finally came to their senses, without a moment’s hesitation, turning to flee towards the Yellow Cloud.

After all, ascending to the Second Rank indeed makes one unafraid of life and death, but who would want to waste Tribulation Power on meaningless matters.

Correct, now that the Jade Void Universe True Monarch had drawn forth the aura of the Heavenly Dao, no matter how hard the eight of them tried, it was utterly meaningless, with not even a single chance of victory.

"..."

Shen Yi quietly watched from above, casually raised his hand, and the universe, which had been ethereal and serene just moments before, suddenly filled with an ominous and devouring aura.

Threads of black mist entwined, rapidly becoming viscous, like sharp claws entwining the Dharma Bodies of the eight monks, dragging them into the depths of the universe.

The Great Freedom Bodhisattvas showed fear, all employing Buddha Treasures, with the Golden River around them surging, attempting to disperse the dark claws.

But the black clouds, which even Third-rank Disciples could casually tear through earlier, had now turned indestructible. The Bodhisattva Bodies forged by the Heavenly Dao had no power to resist in the face of this.

On the four heroic peaks, how could the two True Buddhas allow such a scene?

Immediately, the sound of angry hums arose.

Their colorful Kasayas fluttered, attempting to dispel the pervasive gloom.

"Though this is East Sumeru, you truly have no regard for our Three Immortals Sect."

Emperor Dongji sneered, having to admit that while that Shen Yi lad was deeply scheming and stubbornly resolute, preventing them from having a real conversation yet, everything he did hit just the right spot in his heart.

Having lost face earlier, now that there was finally an excuse, how could he watch as the two True Buddhas changed sides again?

Lady Houtu pressed her lips, though she didn’t speak, the divine light also emerged from her body.

As she had said before, Shen Yi’s unintentional act saved her, and now was precisely when he needed help the most.

Of course, she hoped that after fulfilling his wish, this thorny individual would withdraw quickly from this great tribulation and cause no further trouble.

The four heroic peaks began to tremble at once, marking the confrontation between the True Buddhas and the Emperor.

"Go."

Shen Yi seemed oblivious to the turbulent energy among these First Rank giants, quietly observing the struggle of the eight Great Freedom Bodhisattvas, only to be ultimately swallowed by the universe.

A gentle flick of his wide sleeve sent the white rainbow circling around him whizzing out.

Drip.

A drop of blood fell from the universe to the Human World, followed by a continuous drizzle.

The crimson rain, tinged with golden light, swayed and scattered, occasionally accompanied by furious and sorrowful roars in the clouds, unseen yet making all the disciples imagine the despairing faces of several great sect elders.

This was a massacre of completely unequal strength.

The chanting monks slowly fell silent, their expressions numb, feeling the warm blood rain on their skin.

Their pupils trembled, their chests heaving rapidly.

The aura atop the four heroic peaks gradually calmed, the black clouds dissipating quietly.

The scene only left Shen Yi, casually retrieving the Non-action Sword, lowering his gaze, wiping nonexistent blood stains from its blade with his sleeve.

All eyes were focused on him.

A terrifying thought emerged in the minds of all the disciples of the two sects: this time, the Discussion of the Dao in the East Continent might not end peacefully.

Indeed, while Second Rank powerful beings merely returned to the Heavenly Dao, rebuilding the body takes time.

Now with the Bodhi Sect losing nearly ten Great Freedom Bodhisattvas, what does this mean?

If the Three Immortals Sect seizes the opportunity to invade the Red Dust incense offerings, by the time these Bodhisattvas wake, at least half a continent’s Dao grounds will be lost for the Bodhi Sect, a suspicion that explanations alone could never quell.
