Wang Yu
Chapter 1375 The End of the Heavenly Dao
Just as the seven torrents of law were about to engulf him, a large expanse of golden light erupted around him once more.
Within this golden light, his figure blurred slightly before flashing away, avoiding the attacks of the seven and reappearing tens of thousands of miles away.
But the moment he stabilized himself, the sky above him darkened, and a massive, dark-red palm, large enough to cover ten thousand miles of void, appeared and slammed down.
Before the giant palm even landed, the void beneath it was already covered in a dark-red hue.
Beneath the palm, a colossal, six-sided roulette phantom emerged, spinning rapidly as invisible forces pressed down.
Instantly, the surrounding void, centered on Gu Huo Jin, became twisted, forming thousands upon thousands of void vortexes of varying sizes, densely enveloping him.
Each vortex, as it spun, emanated a dazzling array of lights, with fleeting figures appearing and disappearing within, radiating an indescribable, vast aura.
However, Gu Huo Jin neither dodged nor avoided, his body radiating golden light, creating a small golden space that prevented the vortexes from approaching. Yet, the vortexes multiplied, causing his golden space to distort, obscuring him from view.
Above the dark-red giant palm, the figure of the Reincarnation Hall Master appeared.
Compared to before, he looked much thinner, his robes fluttering in the wind, appearing somewhat empty.
His face and hands were covered in hideous, dark-red纹路, his sunken cheeks revealing a solemn expression as he slowly spoke:
"Everyone, Gu Huo Jin is temporarily trapped by me. Don't be stingy with your laws. Success or failure depends on this!"
Before his voice faded, six figures of different colors rushed toward Gu Huo Jin from six directions. Six forces of law, far surpassing those before, pressed down on Gu Huo Jin like an overwhelming avalanche.
Tens of thousands of miles away, the onlookers locked their divine senses onto this earth-shattering battle, already stunned by the unfolding spectacle.
The struggle between the world's most powerful beings transcended the mundane; it was a contest of laws, a true battle of the Great Dao.
But at this moment, the number one figure in the Celestial Court, the Dao Ancestor who controlled the Law of Time, seemed to have fallen into dire straits.
"Gu Huo Jin is strong, but he is only one person. The Reincarnation Hall Master and the Demon Lord's laws can already contend with him. Adding the other Dao Ancestors, he is probably doomed today."
"I didn't expect the Bodhi Feast to turn out like this..."
"Is the world about to change?"
...
Gu Huo Jin seemed oblivious to the surrounding dark-red vortexes and the six figures rushing toward him, simply raising his head slightly and muttering to himself:
"Finally, this moment has arrived..."
At the same time, deep within the Celestial Court, the golden palace where Gu Huo Jin had previously cultivated trembled violently and suddenly burst open.
Countless multi-colored spheres shot out, disappearing into the void.
The gray sky suddenly filled with beams of light, each a different color, like countless rainbows hanging in the sky, intertwining with each other, incomparably dazzling.
The arrangement of these lights seemed chaotic and disorderly at first glance, but in reality, there was a method to it, like a huge, well-arranged chessboard, shrouding the sky above the Celestial Court.
The lights extended far into the distance, reaching beyond the horizon.
Each beam emitted a distinct force of law, intertwined with each other, covering the sky and earth.
Among the six figures rushing toward Gu Huo Jin, Yin Chengquan, the Black-Gold strong man, and the cloaked man suddenly froze in place. One gray and two black beams of light rose from their bodies, shooting straight into the sky.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye!
Boom!
A heavy pressure, higher than the sky and thicker than the earth, descended from the heavens, enveloping everything.
This seemed to be the might of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, compared to which any existence, even Dao Ancestors, seemed insignificant.
The nearby void tightened, and everyone present felt their bodies become incredibly heavy, unable to move at all.
That was not all; the forces of law within everyone's bodies began to fluctuate uncontrollably, resonating with the rainbows in the sky.
High above Gu Huo Jin, the Reincarnation Hall Master's internal forces of law trembled uncontrollably. His entire body felt as if it were bound by iron hoops, and with his divine powers, he could not move at all.
The dark-red giant palm that controlled the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk suddenly exploded along with the disk, turning into a sky full of dark-red light. The tens of thousands of reincarnation vortexes surrounding Gu Huo Jin also collapsed with a bang.
The Demon Lord, Li Yuanjiu, Chi Rong, and the other Dao Ancestors in the distance, such as Cangwu Zhenjun, were in the same situation as the Reincarnation Hall Master, instantly becoming unable to move.
Not only the Reincarnation Hall Master and his group, but also Chen Ruyan, Hidden Light Dao Ancestor, White Cloud Dao Ancestor, and other Dao Ancestors on the Celestial Court's side were also frozen in place.
Everyone present struggled desperately, but the surrounding restraining force was vast and boundless. No matter how hard they tried, it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, with no effect whatsoever.
"I have finally waited for this day. I have waited too long..." Gu Huo Jin said, as if relieved.
"You have collected all the forces of law, completing the Three Thousand Dao God Formation?" the Reincarnation Hall Master said in a deep voice.
"It seems that Your Excellency only has a superficial understanding of the Three Thousand Dao God Formation. To activate this formation, it is not necessary to gather all the forces of law. In fact, it is only necessary to collect more than half of the laws and gather all thirty-six kinds of laws that serve as the core of the formation," Gu Huo Jin said, looking at the Reincarnation Hall Master.
"Then my leading the people of the Demonic Domain and the Barbarian Wilderness into the Celestial Court, including everything here, was all a scheme you set up to lure everyone in and wipe them out in one fell swoop?" the Reincarnation Hall Master said, his eyes flashing.
"This is indeed a scheme I have been planning for a long time, but the main purpose is not for you, but for those three," Gu Huo Jin said, looking at Yin Chengquan and the other two.
"Them? Could it be..." the Reincarnation Hall Master's eyes flickered, and he exclaimed.
"Even thirty-six kinds of laws are extremely difficult to gather, especially since some of them were born in the Gray Realm. I have been scheming for many years, constantly sending people to infiltrate the Gray Realm, but I have only collected two kinds. The remaining three have all cultivated into Dao Ancestors. I had no choice but to take advantage of Your Excellency's invasion of the Celestial Court to set a trap and lure them out. Without those three, my formation would be impossible to activate," Gu Huo Jin shook his head and sighed.
"Good, good, good! Your Excellency's schemes are truly divine. All of our actions were within your calculations. I admire, I admire," the Reincarnation Hall Master said with a pale face and a miserable smile.
"You are the only one in this world who is qualified to have me explain it to you in person. Unfortunately, you will not see the true Heavenly Dao that I am about to create," Gu Huo Jin said with a faint smile, raising his hand and striking.
"Poof," "Poof," "Poof," "Poof," "Poof."
A golden light flashed in front of the chests of the Reincarnation Hall Master, the Demon Lord, Yin Chengquan, the Black-Gold strong man, and the cloaked man, and a golden arm emerged from each, piercing through their bodies.
A golden mist rose from the arms, enveloping the five.
The full flesh on their bodies rapidly withered, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into skeletons, exploding with a "bang."
The Reincarnation Hall Master and the Demon Lord's bodies turned directly into ashes, but Yin Chengquan and the other two turned into one gray and two black beams of light.
"Hall Master!"
"Demon Lord!"
The faces of the several Dao Ancestors from the Demonic Domain and Bai Ze and the others from the Barbarian Wilderness changed drastically, their eyes filled with despair.
Gu Huo Jin was expressionless, and he made a hand seal.
The three balls of lawful light that Yin Chengquan and the others had transformed into shot into the sky and merged into the huge chessboard in mid-air.
A flash of light appeared in mid-air, revealing one gray and two black rays of light.
With a "boom!"
The rays of light in mid-air suddenly brightened, and countless runes flew out from within, completely covering the entire sky.
The pressure projected from the sky suddenly became twice as heavy, and the agitation of the forces of law within everyone's bodies also intensified greatly.
Miserable screams rang out. The cultivators below trembled incessantly, and strands of light surged from their bodies, flying toward the sky.
Those lights were not only forces of law; the immortal spiritual power in everyone's bodies was also being absorbed by the formation in mid-air, drifting toward the sky.
Not only the Demonic Domain, Barbarian Wilderness, and Gray Realm cultivators, but also the Celestial Court cultivators, including Baiyun Dao Ancestor and the others, were having their forces of law and immortal spiritual power sucked away by the Three Thousand Dao God Formation.
Strands of lawful power flew out of several people's bodies and drifted toward the sky.
Among everyone present, only Gu Huo Jin was unaffected.
"Venerable! What are you doing? Didn't you promise to take the three of us beyond the Heavenly Dao together? Why are you absorbing our forces of law?" Baiyun Dao Ancestor and the others' faces changed, and they looked at Gu Huo Jin in panic.
"Once the Three Thousand Dao God Formation is activated, it is the beginning of the end of this world. Everything belonging to this world will become the past, and I cannot control it. For the sake of the true Heavenly Dao, the three of you should sacrifice yourselves," Gu Huo Jin said indifferently.
Baiyun Dao Ancestor and the others' faces turned as white as a sheet.
Gu Huo Jin ignored them and moved his body, flying upward.
"A thousand-year-old dark room is instantly illuminated by a single lamp. You are ultimately too short-sighted to escape this cycle of the Heavenly Dao. Since that is the case, let me reopen the heavens and create a new world where the strong are unrestricted and there is no oppression from the Heavenly Dao!" Gu Huo Jin swept his gaze across the void in front of him, his eyes seeming to pierce through the ages, filled with fervent light.
Having said that, he rose again, like a golden sun rising slowly, arriving above the nine heavens.
He held up one hand, his fingers forming a sword gesture, and swiped across his eyebrows. A spiral rune, as if branded by a hot iron, appeared on his forehead, flashing with the scarlet light of burning embers.
