I'll Suppress Them!
Within the All Wonders Heaven.
Boundless golden light surged like a tide, making the huge swastika and countless golden chains even more dazzling.
Dozens of True Lord stood amidst golden light, their auras surging, their Dao Fruit flickering.
Almost simultaneously, their gazes turned to the Buddhist monks.
There was no anger, no questioning in that gaze.
There is only a chilling, tangible scrutiny, more terrifying than anger.
Fellow Daoists----
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Bodhisattva clasped his hands together, his voice low yet carrying an unprecedented solemnity. "This humble monk knows what you are thinking."
"But please see clearly, we are also trapped here."
He raised his hand and pointed to the giant golden hand that still tightly gripped the All Wonders Heaven, and then to the countless Sanskrit chains that were still surging. "If this matter were truly related to our Buddhist Order, how could we be trapped here as well?"
How could his own Dao Fruit be suppressed by that golden light, rendering him unable to move?
On the three faces of the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva, the flames of wrath that were originally incessant had dimmed somewhat.
He said in a low voice, "Although my Dao Path of cultivation differs from yours, I am not so foolish as to seek a deal with a tiger and risk my own life!"
Silence lasted for several breaths.
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao's clear eyes swept back and forth over the several Bodhisattvas, and the ancient sword at his waist emitted a low hum.
The Sword Intent surged like a raging torrent, yet it was forcefully suppressed.
After a long while, he hummed.
A cold snort escaped from his throat.
He looked away.
That cold scrutiny vanished as well.
The same applies to the other True Lord.
After all, this is not the time for reckoning.
All the True Lord turned their gaze to the giant golden hand that grasped the All Wonders Heaven.
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao raised his right hand, his fingers forming a sword shape, and gently touched the golden chain.
A sword light, refined to its fullest extent, burst forth from his fingertips, slashing straight at one of the chains!
The sword's sharpness is enough to sever cause and effect and annihilate all laws!
However, the instant the sword light touched the chains, countless Sanskrit characters on the chains suddenly lit up!
A deafening clang of metal echoed All Wonders Heaven!
The sword light, powerful enough to cleave stars, shattered like fragile glass, leaving not a single mark on the chains!
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao frowned slightly.
He did not make another move.
The Eastern Sea Dragon Lord took a step forward, his body radiating a burst of deep blue light, and behind him appeared a boundless, illusory ocean!
"Clang!"
"Zheng!"
He raised his hand, his fingers loosely clenched.
The vast, illusory ocean suddenly shrank, transforming into a dark blue spear formed from billions of tons of seawater!
The spear pierced the air, heading straight for the golden chain!
"Boom-!!!"
A deafening explosion!
The azure spear shattered instantly upon colliding with the chains, turning into a cloud of mist!
But the chains remained completely still!
Subsequently, a group of True Lord made their moves one after another, unleashing terrifying power capable of annihilating boundless star rivers and shattering vast heavens. Yet, the chains remained completely undamaged, as if they were indestructible!
Dead silence.
In the All Wonders Heaven, all was deathly silent.
Just when everyone was racking their brains for a solution but were at a loss.
A corner at the edge of the All Wonders Heaven.
A figure dressed in a pure white Daoist robe sat cross-legged in the void.
He was surrounded by light, his face was gentle and compassionate, and his eyes held a wisdom that understood the ways of the world and a serene tranquility that transcended worldly concerns.
Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord.
Since entering the All Wonders Heaven, he has remained silent, neither speaking to anyone nor participating in any deductions, and has not even glanced at the giant golden hand.
He simply sat there quietly, as if he had nothing to do with the events that had transpired.
now-
He moved.
Those eyes, which had been slightly closed, slowly opened.
Those eyes were gentle and clear, like two deep pools of ancient wells.
The instant they opened their eyes, a deep blue figure was slowly reflected in the depths of their eyes.
The Xuanhuang Home Realm.
Deep within the Purple Mansion, a thought came intermittently.
"I'm in trouble."
That voice was one that Qi Yun knew all too well.
But at this moment, the sound was like a flickering candle in the wind, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if it could be blown away at any moment.
It is the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord.
Qi Yun's gaze suddenly sharpened, and his mind instantly sank into the depths of his Purple Mansion.
The mental imprint connected to the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord was trembling violently at this moment.
The fluctuations of thought emanating from the mark were far weaker than usual, by more than ten times. It was as if an invisible, indescribably mighty chain was frantically suppressing and severing this connection.
"All Wonders Heaven ----"
The voice of the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord was broken and intermittent, each word seemingly strained to convey its meaning: "It's sealed off—"
Qi Yun's pupils suddenly contracted.
"That golden hand—sealed off the entire All Wonders Heaven— "
"All the True Lord are trapped within it."
"I— my Primordial Spirit —have attained enlightenment—unbound by Fruition Status —and can still project a wisp of my will—"
"But—also—extremely limited—"
As the thought arrived, Qi Yun could clearly feel that the aura emanating from the mental imprint was being frantically suppressed and eroded by some invisible force.
The Infinite Light of the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord, which was enough to illuminate all the heavens, was now like a firefly compared to the bright moon before that golden palm print, almost unable to shine through.
"What on earth happened?!"
Qi Yun's mind was shaken, and an unprecedented light suddenly burst forth from the depths of his azure-gold eyes!
The will of the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord continued to transmit, still intermittent, but it was enough for Qi Yun to piece together the truth. "Heavenly Court Dharma Light—sweeping across the Xuanhuang — All Wonders Heaven tremble—"
"All the True Lord —thinking there was something amiss in the All Wonders Heaven —rushed in together—"
"That was a Dao Fruit —that had been lying in wait for a long time."
"A golden hand—a swastika—sealed off the entire All Wonders Heaven— "
"We are all trapped."
With this thought in mind, the voice of the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord paused, as if gathering his last strength, before uttering, word by word. "None escaped."
Qi Yun fell silent.
Within the Purple Mansion, there was utter silence.
Only the increasingly faint fluctuations of thought transmitted through the mental imprint proved that the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord was still struggling to maintain contact with him.
None were spared.
These four words struck Qi Yun's heart like a heavy hammer.
He instantly understood what that meant.
The All Wonders Heaven trembled, threatening even the very foundation of the True Lord!
Those beings who are usually high above and look down on all living beings, those supreme True Lord who suppress the destiny of a sect and hold the power of heaven and earth.
At this moment, they have all become birds in a cage.
Even those old monsters who had been in seclusion for many years, those ancient beings who had been hidden behind the scenes for countless years, were not spared.
Because that is the All Wonders Heaven!
That is where their Dao Fruit are displayed, the fundamental anchor of all their cultivation.
If something goes wrong there, it means something goes wrong with the Dao Fruit, and the very foundation is shaken.
Who would dare not go?
Who would dare gamble on that one in ten thousand chance?
Qi Yun slowly raised his head and looked at the Heavenly Court that was still suspended in the sky above the West Sea.
Above the True Lord ----
Qi Yun muttered to himself, a fierce light flashing deep within his azure-gold eyes.
He finally understood completely.
From the World-Honored One of Spirit Mountain, to the Lord of the Ancient Coffin, and now to the emergence of the Heavenly Court.
Those high and mighty "True Lord" are not at all as detached from worldly affairs and indifferent to worldly matters as legend suggests.
They've been making plans all along.
The pieces are being placed continuously.
I've been waiting for this day.
The matter of the World-Honored One made the True Lord wary of those "above".
The ancient coffin drove them away, making the True Lord realize the malice of "above".
Today, Heavenly Court has been born, its Dharma light sweeping across the land, shaking All Wonders Heaven.
Every step of this process is meticulously designed.
Every step was calculated precisely to anticipate the reactions of the True Lord.
final-
That golden hand firmly grasped the entire All Wonders Heaven.
They wiped out all the True Lord in the entire Xuanhuang Home Realm in one fell swoop.
Qi Yun felt a chill run down his spine.
The methods employed by those above the True Lord level are truly terrifying!
One move after another, they outmaneuvered the True Lord completely.
Every step they took struck at the True Lord ' most fatal weaknesses.
Every step forced them to get involved.
Every step is inescapable.
And at this moment.
The entire Xuanhuang Home Realm is now without True Lord to oversee it!
Those pillars that usually held sway over their respective regions, those towering structures that deterred countless forces from making rash moves, were now all trapped in the All Wonders Heaven, their fates unknown.
Furthermore, the news of the Heavenly Court's emergence had already reached the depths of every cultivator's mind through the sweeping Xuanhuang light.
Qi Yun could almost imagine what would happen next.
Countless forces will flock to it.
Countless cultivators will flock in.
Slaughter, struggle, betrayal, scheming.
This will unfold wildly on the West Sea, in the Heavenly Court, and on this Xuanhuang land where no True Lord is suppressing it.
"Xuanhuang ----"
Qi Yun spoke slowly, his voice low and deep. "We may be about to usher in an unprecedented era of chaos."
He raised his eyes, gazing at the majestic Heavenly Court, at the Southern Heaven Gate that was about to open, and at the countless faintly visible streaks of light converging from all directions.
The streaks of light were dense and overwhelming, like locusts swarming across the land, or moths drawn to a flame.
They had no idea what had happened in the All Wonders Heaven.
All they know is...
The Heavenly Court was established.
Fortuitous opportunity are endless.
The opportunity to rise to the top is right in front of you.
Qi Yun remained silent, watching the ever-approaching tide of escaping light.
Among those escaping lights were those of the righteous path, those of the demonic path, Rogue Cultivator, and disciples of sects.
There are Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Great True Person levels.
The same light burned in everyone's eyes!
greedy.
eager.
crazy.
This is a harbinger of chaos.
This is the beginning of a calamity.
And what those [above the True Lord] probably want is exactly this.
Xuanhuang reigned! People perished!
final.
This will lead the entire Xuanhuang Home Realm to utter destruction.
Qi Yun stood quietly in the void, the light in the depths of his blue-gold eyes gradually settling.
The True Lord need time.
Ke Xuanhuang ----
We can't wait.
Qi Yun slowly lowered his head.
He looked at his palm.
The palm of my hand was empty.
But deep within his Purple Mansion, the scroll of the Bright Golden List was slowly circulating.
[Investiture of the Gods]
This treasure, which evolved from the [Human Emperor Banner] and ultimately embodied his ambition to rule the Divine Dao, is now radiating a warm yet resolute light.
The light was not intense, but like a solitary lamp, it burned quietly in the endless darkness.
Qi Yun remained silent for a long time.
So long that the tide of escaping light gathering on the horizon was drawing ever closer.
After a long time, the two ancient seal characters on the majestic Southern Heaven Gate began to glow faintly, as if they were about to be opened.
Finally, he raised his head.
With a flick of his wrist, a scroll of golden list emerged from the depths of his Purple Mansion and fell into his outstretched palm.
The list of names was not large, only about a foot long.
But the moment it appeared, Qi Yun's aura suddenly changed!
The deep blue Daoist robe fluttered and rustled even without wind!
Two dazzling beams of divine light suddenly shone from those azure-gold eyes!
Holding the Investiture of the Gods in his hand, he raised his eyes to look at the Heavenly Court, at the countless rays of light that were converging, and at this Xuanhuang land that was about to face an unprecedented catastrophe.
Her lips parted slightly.
The voice wasn't loud, but it was like a thunderclap, echoing loudly in the void where the aftershocks of the battle True Lord had just subsided. "Tell the True Lord."
"Break the seal on the All Wonders Heaven as soon as possible."
"The turmoil of the Xuanhuang ----"
He paused.
The five fingers slowly closed.
He held the scroll of the golden list tightly in his palm.
"I'll suppress them!"
