Chapter 1514: Chapter 1006: Blood Rain_2

Taiyi Dusting Brush transformed into the Taiyi Immortal Sword, its silver-white body flashing with chill light, ferocious and sharp, indestructible. At this moment, the Heavenly Venerable showed his not-so-low mastery of the Sword Path.

The cold sword intent burst forth, the void seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, turning the invisible into the visible, then silently returning to nothingness.

Doomsday Sword Dao!

Under the tremendous pressure created by Jiang Chen, the Saint of Taiqing could no longer hide, silently revealing several of his trump cards.

Had it not been for today’s event, who could have imagined that, in silence, the Saint of Taiqing had comprehended the Dao of Annihilation to such an extent? Looking at this power, it seems not much weaker than that of Jieyin Saint.

...

"This..."

"So pure, the intent of annihilation!"

In the outer chaos, at the western Taoist Field, Jieyin Saint, who was silently watching this battle, saw the display of the annihilation sword intent by the Heavenly Venerable. The sorrowful look on his face disappeared, replaced by shock.

He was not only shocked that the Saint of Taiqing also cultivated the Dao of Annihilation, but he was even more shocked that the Saint of Taiqing’s Dao of Annihilation was purer than his.

"Boundless longevity Buddha, Taiqing brother is extraordinary. Even just an incarnation is like this, I’m afraid his true self has an even deeper comprehension of the Dao of Annihilation, already above me."

Jieyin Saint uttered a Buddhist chant to express the shock in his heart.

Beside him, Zhunti Saint heard his exclamation, but the words at his lips couldn’t be spoken, as he already knew the answer.

What Zhunti Saint wanted to ask was how the Saint of Taiqing’s Dao of Annihilation compared to Jieyin Saint’s? Stronger or weaker?

The sigh of Jieyin Saint undoubtedly gave the answer; in the comprehension of the Dao of Annihilation, he might be inferior to the Saint of Taiqing.

"How could this be?"

Zhunti Saint was both shocked and puzzled. He couldn’t understand this phenomenon. If the Saint of Taiqing primarily cultivated the Dao of Annihilation, surpassing Jieyin Saint wouldn’t be surprising, given his talent and fate.

But the Saint of Taiqing clearly cultivated the Dao of Annihilation as a secondary practice, so how could he surpass Jieyin Saint, who primarily cultivates this Dao? This simply defied the natural order.

"Junior brother, do not be puzzled, how do you know that Taiqing brother is cultivating the Dao of Annihilation as a secondary path rather than as a primary one?"

"We can only say, the Saint of Taiqing truly deserves to be our big senior brother, his ambitions are immense, far more mysterious and powerful than what we could imagine."

"Just watch, once the Dao of Taiqing brother becomes complete, he might be the first among us to transcend the Primordial Realm."

Jieyin Saint looked enigmatic, as if he had seen something.

"What do you mean by your words, senior brother?"

Zhunti Saint, hearing this, was even more puzzled.

Jieyin Saint smiled without speaking, not answering his question, but continued to watch the scene below.

Meanwhile, on the other side of chaos, the Upper Qing Saint was watching Heavenly Venerable, his expression extremely solemn, his eyes full of incomprehension.

After a moment, as if he had understood something, his face suddenly showed a relieved expression, and from deep inside, he sighed:

"So, this is your Tao. No wonder no matter how I try to catch up, there is always an unreachable gap between you and me."

"The broader the heart, the longer the journey, your heart is bigger than ours, so on the path of cultivation, you walk farther than us."

Not until this moment did the Upper Qing Saint truly see the path that the Saint of Taiqing was walking.

The intent of annihilation displayed by Heavenly Venerable, unrecognized by others, was extremely familiar to the Upper Qing Saint, representing the power of the universe’s end.

The Sanqing naturally represent the universe’s most essential powers; the Yu Qing represents the universe’s beginning. The Upper Qing represents the universe’s demise.

And the Taiqing is the balancing force between them, representing the evolving process of the universe.

Thus, Yu Qing holds the power of the Original Source, Taiqing holds the Yin and Yang creation power, and Upper Qing holds the power of demise.

At this moment, the incarnation of the Saint of Taiqing, Heavenly Venerable, has even grasped the same power as the Upper Qing Saint.

Seeing this, the Upper Qing Saint immediately understood everything. He initially thought that the Saint of Taiqing was cultivating the path of Yin and Yang creation, but now it seems not entirely so; he is in fact cultivating the path of refining Pangu’s primordial spirit.

Using the Three Corpses to bear the power of the Sanqing and then fusing them into one, he aims to recreate the original spirit of Pangu and step into the realm of the Creation of the Infinite.

Such an amazing idea is nearly impossible for outsiders, yet this is not the case for the Saint of Taiqing. As one who is a part of Pangu’s original spirit, he indeed might be capable of accomplishing this.

It was precisely because he understood the intentions of the Saint of Taiqing that the Upper Qing Saint was astonished, realizing the gap between himself and the other. His own cultivated Tao is part of the other’s, how could he compare?

"Big brother, is this the Tao you wish to cultivate? Truly astonishing. However, do not believe this will ensure your victory over me.

"Since you choose the path of reshaping the original spirit of our father, how could I bear to part with this original source? In the future, I will bestow this original source to you, to resolve the karma between us brothers."

The Upper Qing Saint’s gaze suddenly turned resolute with some thought, and then the entire hall of Upper Qing descended back into tranquility.

...

Boom!

Sensing danger, Jiang Chen, along with the Saint of Taiqing, broke through the void and arrived at the forty-seventh Void.

No sooner had they arrived that the Divine Ability Earth Furnace, which Jiang Chen used to suppress the Saint of Taiqing’s original spirit, shattered loudly, devoured by the force of the void. Simultaneously, his physical body became more twisted, showing a semi-transparent hue, existing between reality and illusion.

The void corresponding to this layer relied on a cultivation of the mid-Primordial Realm; Jiang Chen’s arrival here was somewhat forced.

Swoosh~~

Sword light struck, missing Jiang Chen and whisking past his side instead, then getting devoured by the void.

"Saint of Taiqing, it’s time for you to depart!"

Seizing the moment before Heaven Venerable Morality caught up, Jiang Chen grabbed the original spirit of the Saint of Taiqing and unleashed the strongest strike of his life.

Rumble boom!

In an instant, the multitude of stars trembled, with strands of Original Power descending, pouring into Jiang Chen’s body.

On top of his Primordial Golden Body, light points appeared - these were Divine Orifices transformed from stars, distributed according to the positions of the Star Array Cycle, continuously enhancing the power of the Primordial Golden Body.

Simultaneously, twelve types of Heaven and Earth energy surged, forming the twelve Dutian God-killing Array, further boosting Jiang Chen’s power.

Cycle and Dutian, these two supreme powers intertwined, demonstrating all the mysteries Between Heaven and Earth—a vast universe formed, with three thousand sacred beings, a million heavenly demons, and a billion living beings being born consecutively.

The next moment, these countless living beings simultaneously deployed Divine Abilities, each distinct from the others. Beams of light bloomed within Jiang Chen’s body, merging together and continuously accumulating.

Crack! Crack!

The power was too tremendous; even the Primordial Golden Body couldn’t contain it all and began to show numerous fine cracks.

Before his body shattered, Jiang Chen directed this power towards his right hand, and enveloped the original spirit of the Saint of Taiqing.

"Heavenly Primordial Strike!"

Jiang Chen acted, this was his strongest Divine Ability, centering around the ultimate force while simultaneously activating billions of different Divine Abilities, condensing their power into one point, bursting forth violently.

The power of this Divine Ability depended on the number of Divine Abilities accumulated; the more accumulated, the stronger the power. And Jiang Chen was not lacking in Divine Abilities.

Boom!

A dazzling brilliance erupted from Jiang Chen’s hand, shattering layers of void in an instant, surging towards the deepest part of the void.

At the moment this Divine Ability exploded, an unparalleled countershock came, and the mighty Primordial Golden Body immediately blew apart, shattering into countless fragments.

While the Divine Ability ensnared the Saint of Taiqing, it broke through the forty-eighth, forty-ninth voids, and straight into the unseen region behind.

During this period, visibly, the original spirit of the Saint of Taiqing became more and more ethereal, and by the time he left the forty-ninth Void, only a faint shadow remained.

Rumble!

Suddenly, blood rain started falling from the sky.
