Chapter 1610 Lord of the Three Paths
Chapter 1610 Lord of the Three Paths
A gigantic palm slowly coalesced in the sky above the western universe, and within the palm, a vast amount of energy began to rapidly converge.
Gulu...
The Lord of Shadow Prison swallowed hard, staring intently at the enormous hand that could crush the entire Western universe, his eyes filled with boundless fear!
"Since you insist on not coming out, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, the Heavenly Dao Lord's enormous palm began to solidify rapidly, and a large amount of energy began to cover it.
The energy in his palm had solidified to its limit, and the golden light surged like a vast ocean. The giant palm, which was enough to crush the Western universe, suddenly fell down, crushing countless dark cracks in the void. The roar of the earth collapsing pierced through the universe. The desperate wails of the Buddhas of Mount Ling almost froze. The black mist, the Shadow Prison Lord deep in Mount Ling, curled up, unable to even have the thought of resistance.
Just as the giant hand was about to touch the western cosmic dome, and annihilation was imminent, two completely different auras suddenly emerged from the depths of the void. The two beams of light, one black and one blue, instantly intertwined to form a light curtain that spanned the universe, precisely blocking the giant hand.
"boom--"
A deafening roar shook the three realms. The golden light and the dark blue light curtain collided violently, and violent energy ripples swept outwards. Countless stars shattered in the ripples, but the light curtain remained as steady as a rock, forcefully blocking the Heavenly Dao Lord's giant hand in mid-air, making it impossible for it to fall even an inch further.
The Heavenly Dao Lord's anger intensified, his enormous eyes suddenly narrowing as he coldly shouted, "Earthly Dao Lord! Human Dao Lord! Are you going to interfere in this matter?"
In the void, two figures slowly appeared. The one dressed in a black robe was surrounded by a thick, earthy yellow aura, and his aura was as solid as a mountain. He was none other than the Earth Dao Lord!
The man in the blue robe radiated vitality, his eyes gentle and kind; he was none other than the Lord of Humanity. The two stood side by side, facing the oppressive aura of the Lord of Heaven, their expressions unwavering.
"Lord of Heaven, stop."
The Lord of Humanity spoke first, his voice gentle yet firm, "The three of us are bound by our own rules. You, out of personal anger, want to destroy the entire Western Universe and slaughter billions of lives. You have violated the fundamental rules of the Three Realms. We cannot stand idly by."
The Lord of the Earth then said in a deep voice, “The rules are set and are above all things. Even though you and I are the strongest beings in the top universes, we cannot overstep them. Now, you even want to destroy a universe, which has already gone too far. If you insist on doing so, the power of the rules will come down to punish you, and neither of us will be able to withstand it.”
The Heavenly Dao Lord's face was ashen. He continuously channeled energy into his palm, causing the golden light of his giant palm to intensify. However, the dark blue light barrier remained completely still, and even showed signs of counter-pressure.
He was well aware of the terror of the rules of the Three Realms, a power that surpassed all the strongest beings. Once violated, one's cultivation would be damaged at best, and one's soul would be destroyed at worst. Yet, the anger and resentment in his heart were hard to quell.
"He won't come out, and I can't descend, what am I supposed to do?" The Heavenly Dao Lord roared angrily, his energy surging wildly. "What about the rules? Besides, I was about to have another puppet at the half-step Dao Realm! But this guy ruined it!"
"There are still many doubts about this matter, and Song Yu may not have perished." The Lord of Humanity slowly shook his head, his gaze sweeping across the void. "He may have simply gotten rid of the mark and gone into hiding, rather than being erased by someone. If you act rashly now, you will not only violate the rules, but you may also kill an innocent person and disrupt the balance of this world."
The Lord of the Underground added, “We will not stop you from killing the Lord of Shadow Prison, but you must not destroy this universe. That is against the rules. Furthermore, billions of innocent beings in the Western Universe are at large. Your slaughter of living beings for your own selfish gain is absolutely forbidden by the rules.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark blue light screen suddenly lit up, and an invisible pressure emanated from it, directly enveloping the Heavenly Dao Lord. The Heavenly Dao Lord froze, feeling the flow of energy within his body obstructed. The deterrent force originating from the rules made his soul tremble slightly. He knew that this was the rules warning him that if he did not stop, punishment would immediately descend upon him!
The Lord of Shadow Prison, hiding deep within Mount Ling, sensed the Heavenly Dao Lord's aura gradually stagnating. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Earthly Dao Lord and the Human Dao Lord in the void, his eyes filled with relief. If the two hadn't intervened in time, he would have surely died today.
The Heavenly Dao Lord stared intently at the Earthly Dao Lord and the Human Dao Lord, his eyes surging with killing intent, but he gradually calmed down under the pressure of the rules.
He knew that he had no chance of making a move today, and even if he forced himself to do so, it would only backfire.
After a long while, he gritted his teeth and snorted coldly. The energy in his palm slowly receded, and the giant hand hanging in the western universe gradually faded and finally disappeared completely.
"I will make a note of what happened today."
The Heavenly Dao Lord's voice was icy cold. His enormous eyes swept fiercely across the direction of Mount Ling, then looked at the Earthly Dao Lord and the Human Dao Lord, "But, he, I will kill him!"
"It would be best if he could stay hidden forever, otherwise... hmph!"
After saying that, the Heavenly Dao Lord's body flashed with golden light, his huge eyes slowly closed, and his aura completely dissipated from the void!
Both the Lord of the Earthly Path and the Lord of the Human Path breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him stop. The dark blue light curtain gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared completely.
"Thank you both for saving me." The Shadow Prison Lord's divine sense quickly transmitted, his tone filled with gratitude and apprehension. He knew that if the two hadn't appeared in time, he would have already turned to ashes.
The Lord of Humanity glanced at him coldly and said indifferently, "We do not recommend the appearance of a fourth Dao Realm expert, but the Lord of Heavenly Dao will mind. Before you have fully entered that realm, it is best not to appear in front of him, otherwise... you should know the consequences!"
The Lord of the Earthly Path said nothing more, but took a deep look in the direction of Mount Ling. Then he exchanged a glance with the Lord of the Human Path, and the two of them disappeared into the void in a flash, leaving behind only the devastated Western Universe and the Lord of Shadow Prison who was still shaken.
Deep within the sacred mountain, the Shadow Prison Lord, Black Mist, slowly stretched out his body, yet the unease in his heart remained undiminished.
Although the Lord of Heaven has temporarily stopped, he will never give up easily.
And, Song Yu is actually dead...
This shocked him!
And at this very moment, within the unnamed age range!
Song Yu was still cultivating and comprehending the power of the Dao. His aura began to rise steadily. Although he was still at the peak of the Eternal Realm, it had improved by more than one level compared to before!
Distance from the Dao Realm...
It's not actually that far out of reach!
Deep within the nameless void, a stream of energy flowed slowly. Amidst the interplay of hazy light and shadow, Song Yu sat cross-legged on a suspended stone platform, his body surrounded by a faint Daoist aura. With each breath, he resonated subtly with the surrounding Daoist power!
At this moment, he focused on his cultivation, abandoning all distracting thoughts, and his mind was completely immersed in comprehending the power of the Dao.
His cultivation at the peak of Eternity was already stable, and the power within his body was as deep as an abyss. At this moment, he was constantly impacting the barrier that separated him from the Dao Realm. With each impact, tiny cracks spread, and his aura became more and more condensed and heavy, showing faint signs of transcending the Eternal Realm.
After an unknown amount of time, Song Yu's body suddenly shone brightly, and the faint golden Daoist light intertwined into a net, enveloping his entire body. Within his dantian, the power of origin boiled completely, transforming into a golden torrent that crashed fiercely against the barrier.
"Boom!!!"
A subtle tremor emanated from Song Yu's body, and the Dao Realm barrier that had troubled countless Eternal Realm experts was actually breached, creating a small gap. A wisp of extremely pure Dao power surged in through the gap and instantly merged into his divine soul.
Song Yu felt his mind booming, and countless profound insights into the laws surged into his heart. His aura suddenly soared, and his originally calm and steady peak aura now had a touch of ethereal transcendence. Although he had not completely stepped into the half-step Dao realm, he had already touched the threshold of the Dao realm. He was only one step away from the true half-step Dao realm!
He slowly opened his eyes, a flash of understanding in them. He raised his hand and clenched his fist, a wisp of Dao power swirling around his fingertips. With a gentle flick, the chaotic air currents in front of him were instantly torn apart, leaving a long, narrow crack. The crack failed to heal for a long time, demonstrating the terrifying power of that wisp of Dao power.
"Half-step Dao Realm... just one final step away!"
Song Yu muttered to himself, a hint of emotion mixed with seriousness flashing in his eyes, "But even at the half-step Dao Realm, he's still utterly powerless before the Heavenly Dao Lord..."
Song Yu originally thought that he only needed to kill the Shadow Prison Lord and take back the Bright Universe, but he did not expect that there was the Heavenly Dao Lord who was eyeing him covetously above him, and even the Earthly Dao Lord!
The Lord of Heaven is definitely an enemy, not a friend; the other two are unclear.
Song Yu was under immense pressure at that moment.
Just as Song Yu was pondering, a subtle disturbance suddenly came from the void outside the Nameless Void Realm. Two obscure auras quietly swept across the edge of the Void Realm. Although they only flashed by, Song Yu keenly caught them.
His expression hardened slightly, and his aura instantly subsided, disappearing into the chaotic airflow as he focused his attention on sensing the movements of the outside world.
"What...what kind of aura is this?"
Song Yu was puzzled and secretly on guard.
The Unnamed Void Realm is extremely secretive, and few people know about it. The sudden appearance of an unfamiliar aura is no accident. It may be coming for me, or it may have other motives.
He quietly channeled his Dao power, concealing all his aura, and cautiously approached the edge of the void, peering out through the gaps in the chaotic airflow.
In the void beyond the mortal realm, two blurry black figures hovered, surrounded by a dense, chilling aura. Amidst the swirling black mist, the strange outlines of the figures could be vaguely seen, unlike the forms of normal living beings, but rather appearing to be formed from pure, sinister power.
Just then, one of the dark figures suddenly turned its head and looked in Song Yu's direction. Its dark eyes were expressionless, but they carried an extremely strong sense of perception!
Song Yu was startled and quickly shrank back, completely concealing his aura and even stopping his breathing, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
The dark figure stared at the nameless void for a moment, seemingly unaware of anything amiss, then slowly withdrew its gaze, its aura quickly disappearing into the void.
After the two dark figures had completely disappeared, Song Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense nerves around his body gradually relaxed.
