Chapter 965: Chapter 572 Battle of Fate_2

Who says the Buddhist sect of the Great Desolation can only beguile people’s hearts?

When the supremes were engaging each other, the monks of the Buddhist sect also began to charge into battle.

Among them, several figures were particularly dazzling.

For example, Dizang.

At this moment, Dizang was sitting on the divine beast Di Ting, holding a spiritual treasure resembling a bamboo pole. Each time the pole swung, it emanated a rich sense of rebirth and reincarnation, even touching the souls of the beings.

And Guanyin.

The ancient Buddhas of the Buddhist sect also performed exceedingly well.

The Buddhist sect has always been low-key, but low-key does not mean weak.

In the Great Desolation, the strife between Buddhism and Daoism has never ceased.

Moreover, the Three Pure Ones have never shown mercy to the Buddhist sect, yet under the pressure from the Daoist sect, the Buddhist sect has managed to grow strong to this day, demonstrating its formidable nature.

裂空 choosing to challenge the Buddhist sect was exceedingly unfortunate.

However, the people of the Buddhist sect did not immediately kill the supremes led by 裂空 with thunderous methods, but instead focused on encirclement.

Moreover, 接引 did not truly make a move, otherwise, with the might of a supreme with two thousand nine hundred Dao Divine Patterns, how could 裂空 possibly withstand it?

"I’ve long heard of the Tongtian Sword Dao’s mastery in the Great Desolation. Today, I’ve come to learn a thing or two!" Mystical Mechanism Venerable appeared, bolstered by the origin of the myriad realms, his strength not to be underestimated.

Behind him, the beings of the Xuanji Realm also joined the battle en masse.

The Xuanji Realm has always held its unique place among the myriad realms.

Legend has it that their Xuanji Realm captures the mysteries of the Great Dao, making it the world most adept at calculations and predictions, best at avoiding misfortune and seeking fortune.

They can also influence a person’s fortune.

Hence, few dare to provoke them.

Tong Tian didn’t waste words, extending his hand to summon the Green Duckweed Sword.

Around him, the four swords of Zhuxian circled, the formation diagram stood above Tong Tian’s head, continuously dispersing sword energy, enveloping Tong Tian.

Tong Tian moved, and countless sword intents burst forth from him.

Wherever the sword intent reached, the space itself was torn apart.

"Tongtian Venerable’s sword dao is indeed very strong, but I believe this sword light won’t hit me!" Mystical Mechanism Venerable laughed.

As his voice fell, the sword intent sent by Tong Tian strangely veered off course, sweeping past Mystical Mechanism Venerable.

It seemed to have not hurt Mystical Mechanism Venerable in the slightest.

Behind Mystical Mechanism Venerable, an illusory long river emerged.

This path is called Luck!

Mystical Mechanism Venerable, bestowed with the path of luck, can make himself fortunate and others unlucky.

Seeing this scene, Tong Tian slightly furrowed his brows.

Facing Mystical Mechanism Venerable, he felt as if there was no solution.

Then, Tong Tian raised his hand once more.

No matter what the path is, whether it’s the path of luck or how bizarre it is, as long as one’s sword dao is strong enough, it can be cut down.

Even a person’s luck has its limits.

Just as Tong Tian was about to connect to the sword dao of the myriad realms, a voice suddenly spoke.

"Master Uncle, leave this to me! You go find another opponent!"

Tong Tian froze for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded and turned to leave.

After Tong Tian left, Shen Gongbao appeared.

Mystical Mechanism Venerable looked at the newcomer with some puzzlement.

The Great Desolation’s Shen Gongbao had shown himself before, even acquiring the core inheritance of the now-destroyed Era of Halo, but disappeared afterward.

"The path of luck, a decent path, but I wonder if your luck can suppress my halo." Shen Gongbao smiled, looking up.

Mystical Mechanism Venerable chuckled coldly, yet was full of confidence.

The path he cultivated was inherently mystical; even those stronger than him were reluctant to confront him because he was too troublesome.

Now bolstered by the supports of the myriad realms, Mystical Mechanism Venerable believed that even with Tong Tian’s sword dao empowerment, it couldn’t sever his path of luck.

"I see my lord’s complexion isn’t good, perhaps misfortune is at hand! The disaster of blood and light can’t be escaped." Mystical Mechanism Venerable said with a teasing smile.

He looked much like a fortune teller on the street.

Just as his words fell, from above the sky, a grand divine skill descended.

No one knows which battlefield’s supreme divine skill went astray, heading straight for Shen Gongbao.

Shen Gongbao did not dodge, looking at Mystical Mechanism Venerable, he also laughed but said only two words: "Rebound!"

As he finished, that divine power rebounded once again toward Mystical Mechanism Venerable.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable immediately realized he had encountered an opponent.

The Xuanji Tower beneath him flickered with light, causing the incoming Divine Skills to veer off course.

He activated the fortune attribute of his strategy once more.

But before he could relax, the Divine Skills returned once again.

Shen Gongbao chuckled softly: "Because you have the intent to kill me, your fortune is clouded, thus you will have bad luck."

Alarm bells rang in the heart of the Mystical Mechanism Venerable, as he felt that the operation of the grand path behind him suddenly became obstructed.

As the Divine Skills came upon him again, he found he couldn’t evade at all.

"Bang!!!"

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable was struck directly, but it didn’t cause much harm; he just looked rather disheveled.

"Good tactics, truly remarkable methods."

Whether it was the Mystical Mechanism Venerable or Shen Gongbao, it might seem like they were casting spells with their words, like mouth-fu.

But in actuality, it was the utilization of the grand path.

Though it seemed effortless, they also had to pay a significant price.

"How about we... let it end here?" suggested Shen Gongbao.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable was startled.

Is there such a maneuver?

But he too had this thought.

Shen Gongbao was indeed proving quite tricky for him.

If they continued to fight, it would result in mutual destruction.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable, this old hand, already had other plans.

"I can cease with you, but the beings of my Xuanji Realm will still participate in the battle." proclaimed the Mystical Mechanism Venerable.

"Good!" Shen Gongbao agreed.

The two seemed to truly become spectators.

"Friend, in your opinion, who will win this battle?" asked the Mystical Mechanism Venerable.

"The Great Wilderness!" replied Shen Gongbao.

"To my knowledge, the World Supreme of the Dao Realm has meticulously prepared for this battle. He has been strategizing for dozens of eras, even with the assistance of his great disciple it seems that the Great Wilderness may find victory hard to come by!"

"The Martial Ancestor has never considered the World Supreme of the Dao Realm as any real adversary, because he simply is not worthy!"

At this point, Shen Gongbao cast a meaningful look at the Mystical Mechanism Venerable.

"Among the Supremes of the Myriad Realms, you are the most sleek. Your Xuanji always sees the trends clearly, so you joined secret forces early on, then pledged allegiance to the Chaos Martial Ancestor, while in actuality still working for the World Supreme of the Dao Realm."

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable was shocked.

This was indeed his doing.

A servant with three allegiances.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable is most adept at seeking advantage and avoiding harm, so to survive, he hedged bets with all three parties.

Now Shen Gongbao had outright revealed him.

Yet the Mystical Mechanism Venerable wasn’t overly panicked; he remained composed and silent.

Shen Gongbao said: "Do you think you did everything seamlessly? Actually, whether it is the Chaos Martial Ancestor, the World Supreme of the Dao Realm, or the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning, who doesn’t know of your dubious affairs?

But your path is unique, connected to the fortune of the Land of the Forsaken Husk, whoever kills you would be affected somewhat.

Of course, it’s not that there is no fear of killing you, it’s just seen as troublesome, or annoying. When this battle ends, the first to be killed will be you!"

As soon as Shen Gongbao finished speaking, the Mystical Mechanism Venerable screeched sharply like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "You better not scare me!"

"I’m not scaring you, killing you would bring misfortune due to fortune’s backlash. When the Land of the Forsaken Husk unifies, if you are still undecided, you are guaranteed to die, who wants a fence-sitter like you?" Shen Gongbao mocked.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable fell silent again.

He had always felt secure, relying on that fortune.

His thoughts were truly focused on self-preservation.

But with Shen Gongbao’s analysis, he felt seriously uneasy!

"Tell me honestly, who will win this battle?" the Mystical Mechanism Venerable inquired once more.

"Don’t worry about who wins, as long as the World Supreme of the Dao Realm wins, you’re dead. He won’t tolerate you, no matter how loyal you become now. But the Chaos Martial Ancestor can!" Shen Gongbao laughed.

"That... saying ’a servant with three allegiances’ is too harsh..." The Mystical Mechanism Venerable blushed and said after a moment: "Never mind, I’ll tell you a secret. Though it currently appears the Great Wilderness has the upper hand, the Dao Supreme has a secret weapon.

As far as I know, he’s been preparing for it through the last few eras."

"The Chaos Martial Ancestor has known about this for ages, it’s no secret. You and I will just stay here for now." Shen Gongbao smiled.

The Mystical Mechanism Venerable was speechless, he had already been persuaded by Shen Gongbao, ready to act and show loyalty, yet this guy remained motionless?
