Chapter 285: Chapter 273: Meeting Yuan in the Immeasurable Calamity

Di Jun spoke about the Dao for a thousand years and then left.

Next, nine Heavenly Dao Saints began to lecture in turn, holding nothing back, each speaking about the Dao for a hundred years.

The accumulation of the Heavenly Dao Saints was not as rich as that of the Great Dao Saints. Being able to continuously speak for a hundred years was already their limit, for while the Great Dao is infinite, the Heavenly Dao is limited. The Heavenly Dao Saints were still far too distant from the Great Dao Saints. Their lectures also served as exchanges among themselves, and they were able to gain some insights.

Another nine hundred years passed, and then the nine Heavenly Dao Saints gathered together to concoct Elixir Pills and transmit Taoist Magic.

This was a great golden age when the Saints transmitted all their Taoist Magic, an opportunity that was hard to come by!

Even in Ancient Times, there probably was not such prosperity. Cultivation shone with a powerful brilliance.

Inside the Earth Immortal Realm, anyone with a Spirit Root joined the ranks of the Cultivators, obtaining some Elixir Pills and listening to the Saints lecture. Even a pig with a bit of Spirit Root could achieve something. As for those without Spirit Roots, there was no way at all, as it was limited by what they were given at birth.

The nine hundred years of lectures passed in the blink of an eye. When truly entering the state of cultivation, one does not feel the passage of time; closing and opening one’s eyes, it might already have been several hundred years.

The nine Saints stopped lecturing and then each went their separate ways, precisely at the nine hundred year mark.

Ksitigarbha King returned to the Ultimate Bliss World, while Victorious Fighting Buddha sat upon the lotus dais, his eyes slightly closed.

"I observe that in the future, none can become the Turning Wheel Sage King. But I have also cultivated the All Living Beings Aspect! This All Living Beings Aspect is the key to becoming the Turning Wheel Sage King; I hope I can discover a bit more and achieve it," Victorious Fighting Buddha slowly said.

The so-called All Living Beings Aspect encompasses the vicissitudes of life — joy, anger, sorrow, pleasure, greed, hatred, ignorance, lamentation, happiness, and parting. Now, Victorious Fighting Buddha could easily transform the All Living Beings Aspect, but he still had not inspired the Turning Wheel Sage King. This path was extremely difficult! Victorious Fighting Buddha felt that he might not even achieve it by the time of the Immeasurable Calamity.

Ksitigarbha King said, "One of the eight great sufferings of life is not getting what one desires! Alas!!"

Time, like flowing water, swiftly passed.

"Boom!"

A loud sound, and the Great Dao Principles pressured down. The deep void within the Celestial Realm completely shattered; the Mountain and Rivers Sheji Map could no longer suppress it!

A colossal handprint emerged from the void. Three Great Dao Saints stood up simultaneously. Di Jun unleashed the Heavenly Emperor’s Giant Seal, striking against the huge handprint. Instantly, it exploded with Immeasurable Divine Light and True Sunfire surged violently, blasting the surrounding Void into Chaos.

"Roar!!"

Bellowing demonic roars came from outside, Hong Jun’s expression unchanged as he retracted the Mountain and Rivers Sheji Map.

Three Great Dao Demon Gods burst through from the Chaotic World, unleashing roars that shook the entire Earth Immortal Realm.

The nine Heavenly Dao Saints felt that the Heavenly Dao Laws had been breached, and their expressions drastically changed. The Immeasurable Calamity was upon them!

"What do we do?" the nine Heavenly Dao Saints gathered in the Void, Victorious Fighting Buddha also emerged from the Ultimate Bliss World.

"Wait for Hong Jun Taoist Patriarch and see how he arranges it," Wukong said.

They couldn’t act rashly now, still unaware of the full extent of the Chaos Heaven Demons’ strength. Rash actions could lead to severe losses.

The depths of the Celestial Realm were where the Heavenly Dao Laws were weakest; they were immediately shattered by the Great Dao Principles. The Chaos Heaven Demons intended to invade through it! Leading the charge were the three Great Dao Demon Gods, with terrifying ferocity and spreading Demonic Qi, followed by an endless number of Chaos Heaven Demons, perhaps numbering in the hundreds of millions.

"Boom!"

Six experts of the Great Dao Sage level acted together, unleashing powerful bursts of air, with surging Chaos Qi all around.

The Heavenly Emperor Sword in Di Jun’s hand flew out from the sun, captured in his hand; he executed Sword techniques, emitting myriad Sword Qis that entangled with a Great Dao Demon God. This Demon God, formidable in both magical power and physical body, resisted the Sword Qi which sparked off fiery stars upon impact!

Di Jun thought to himself, "This Great Dao Demon God is indeed incredibly powerful. In a one-on-one fight, it is very hard to handle! If two more joined, perhaps we three Great Dao Saints would have to temporarily perish!"

Great Dao Saints do not die but simply perish and would revive after a while.

"Kill!" Tong Tian Sect Master shouted loudly, as the Slaying Immortal Four Swords took flight, forming a Sword Array.

In the Sword Array, Sword Dragons danced around, trapping a Great Dao Demon God. They clashed fiercely; the Sword Dragons emitted dragon roars, and Sword Qi burst forth, while water, fire, wind, and thunder activated simultaneously with terrifying force! As the Great Dao Demon God continuously executed marvelous techniques, the Great Dao Principles moved to protect its body. When the Sword Dragons struck, generating intensely powerful airwaves, any Primordial Golden Immortal touched by even a fraction would be reduced to dust in an instant.

This time of Immeasurable Calamity faced four Great Dao Demon Gods, against whom even three Great Dao Sages were utterly powerless! The final Great Dao Demon God, who had attempted to assassinate Wukong in the Chaotic World, was still asleep, soon to awaken. This also served as a glimmer of hope in Dao’s Propagation Epoch’s final moments, the last lifeline left for the Earth Immortal Realm. If they failed to seize it, the Earth Immortal Realm was doomed to extinction!

The Sword Dragon revolved, Sword Qi stretching across thirty thousand leagues, one sword chilling nineteen states!

The Slaying Immortals Sword Formation of the Tong Tian Sect Master was a supreme weapon of the Heavenly Dao, which had killed three thousand Chaos Heaven Demons since the beginning of the heavens, incredibly powerful. In this battle against the Great Dao Demon God, he didn’t falter; in fact, he even slightly suppressed the Great Dao Demon God. But the Great Dao Demon God let out a furious roar, his Essence Blood ignited, and from his mouth, he spewed a stone bridge, crossing it in a step, instantly passing through the Slaying Immortals Sword Formation, landing right in front of Tong Tian Sect Master!

"What? What Divine Skill is this?" exclaimed Tong Tian Sect Master, placing the Green Lotus Sword across his chest.

The Great Dao Demon God’s fist, enshrouded with formidable Demonic Qi, thundered down. A direct hit from such a punch would surely annihilate him!

His massive fist struck the Green Lotus Sword, sparking a burst of sparks. The Green Lotus Sword trembled continuously, as if it was about to split apart.

"So powerful!" Tong Tian Sect Master muttered to himself.

The Heart-Piercing Lock flew out from his brow, clattering loudly, its chains shaking as they coiled towards the Great Dao Demon God.

The Great Dao Demon God sneered, "Heart-Piercing Lock? Once bound by its chains, the Three Flowers and Five Qi dissipate, the Primordial Spirit becomes dull, and the bound yields easily. But I am a Great Dao Demon God, born from the Great Dao Principles, devoid of Three Flowers and Five Qi, and even my Primordial Spirit operates on Great Dao Principles. You cannot overcome me!"

The Heart-Piercing Lock, a Magical Treasure granted by Tong Tian Sect Master to Duobao Taoist, was reclaimable with the assistance of the Supreme Holy Mother. Its power was immense, capable of eroding the Three Flowers and Five Qi completely, dulling the Primordial Spirit, and decaying the body. Yet, the Great Dao Demon God was not afraid at all!

The Heart-Piercing Lock bound the Great Dao Demon God, but it had no effect. Black Demon Flames burst forth from the Great Dao Demon God, melting the Innate Magical Treasure into molten iron, which streamed down.

Tong Tian Sect Master was shocked and activated the Slaying Immortals Sword Formation, pressing it down towards the Great Dao Demon God!

The Great Dao Demon God brought forth a cauldron, also born from Great Dao Principles, its power not inferior to the Slaying Immortal Four Swords, immensely formidable.

The Three-legged Round-eared Cauldron was the most challenging to refine. The three legs symbolize "Dao gives birth to one, one to two, two to three, and three to all things"; the round symbolizes the complete and perfect great Dao.

"Boom!"

The Slaying Immortals Sword Formation collided harshly with the Three-legged Round-eared Cauldron, exploding in a fierce divine light, trembling violently, dispersing Great Dao Qi, turning a vast expanse of the void to Chaos.

"Myriad Swords Mantra! Slaying Immortals Sword Formation, evolve myriad swords, all swords return to their origin, all swords come forth!" Tong Tian Sect Master shouted, releasing his killing move.

The Slaying Immortals Sword Formation evolved into a million divine swords, falling like rain, Sword Qi wreaking havoc.

Combat at the level of a Great Dao Sage was truly terrifying. Great Dao Divine Sound roared, the Heavenly Dao Principles collapsed, and not even supremely powerful Heavenly Dao Saints could intervene, instantly turning to dust, undergoing Dao and death.

The Great Dao Demon God’s cauldron hovered above his head, denying all approaches, fending off ten thousand divine swords—the power was incredible!

The Green Lotus Sword transformed into a divine light, striking fiercely against the Three-legged Round-eared Cauldron, producing a deafening sound. The Green Lotus Sword shattered, releasing a boundless evolution of Great Dao Principles, entangling the Three-legged Round-eared Cauldron, followed by a cascade of Sword Qi, slashing! Fine cracks appeared on the body of the Cauldron.

"The Slaying Immortal Four Swords truly are formidable, indeed the first killer weapon of the Heavenly Dao!, derived from the Chaotic Green Lotus. No wonder it could slew three thousand Chaos Heaven Demons at the dawn of heaven," said the Great Dao Demon God, his expression dark and cold.

"Great Swallowing Heaven Technique!"

The Great Dao Demon God roared, unleashing a technique, an endless black void appearing around him, devouring all Sword Qi, nourishing his own body. This was a terrifying Dao Technique, born from Great Dao Principles, capable of devouring everything, including even the Heavenly Dao Principles!

"Great Destruction Technique!"

The Great Dao Demon God again displayed his Divine Skill, pointing out, his fingertip surrounded by an Annihilation Mood, seemingly aiming to end the world. Surrounding stars vanished, evolving three thousand minor worlds, but in the next moment, these three thousand worlds collapsed, transforming into a vast force of Great Annihilation!

Tong Tian Sect Master summoned the Covering Heaven Map, evoking myriad worlds to block the Great Destruction Technique.

"Boom!"

The Great Destruction Technique, unrivaled in all ages, the devastating power evolved from the collapse of three thousand minor worlds, was too much for anyone to block, directly shattering the Covering Heaven Map! Tong Tian Sect Master had lost two Innate Magical Treasures in this duel, a significant loss indeed.

This kind of "Great" Dao Technique was extremely formidable, evolved from Great Dao Principles, expressing a Dao power to its ultimate extent!

The Great Swallowing Heaven Technique represented the Swallowing Dao, and the Great Destruction Technique represented the Annihilation Dao, their power immense to the extreme.
