Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 1115: Chapter 677: Direction

“This…”

“Your Majesty!”

“Emperor!”

Watching Tianyu Emperor leave coldly, disappearing in an instant, people didn’t know what to say for a moment. Only those from the Ancient Tianyu Dynasty were startled into action, hurriedly following after him, their movements slightly flustered, with a touch of fear.

So this is the conclusion of the battle of the Extreme Dao?

The Immortals turned their gazes back and looked at the figure standing in the center, their eyes filled with indescribable complexity.

“Such an ending…”

“Unexpected, yet also reasonable.”

“Although Xu Qingyang lacks Imperial Arms, his Cultivation has reached the brink of the Extreme Dao Realm, and he possesses numerous earth-shaking Great Arts and unparalleled Divine Powers. With full effort, he can unleash eighty percent of the Extreme Dao’s divine might, which, though not Imperial Arms, is equal, if not superior, to them.”

“Imperial Arms, when pushed to their limit, can indeed burst forth with ninety percent of the Extreme Dao’s divine might, but the price to pay is too great. As the ruler of one realm, Tianyu Emperor has the courage and is unafraid of the enemy, but he also has to consider the Ancient Tianyu Dynasty. If he exhausts its potentiality here, he may be found lacking when the great calamity stirs.”

“The conflict between Tianyu City and Xu Qingyang is just over King Ling Hui, although he’s Tianyu Emperor’s younger brother, he’s not worth the Ancient Tianyu Dynasty risking so much, not to mention that this battle was bound to be fruitless. Even with all-out effort, it would be difficult to suppress the opponent and would only result in endless enmity.”

“It’s irrational to provoke a strong enemy so close to Proving the Dao, which is why the Great Profound Sect withdrew earlier. Now facing the Ancient Tianyu Dynasty, the outcome is the same.”

“However, Tianyu Emperor is also a determined person. He does not concede defeat, only calling for a halt to the battle. If in the future they both prove the Dao and become Great Emperors, there will surely be a world-shocking and earth-sundering great battle to make up for today’s regret.”

“Hmph, what halt to the battle. With Imperial Arms against without, with Treasure against nothing, to still not win is naturally a defeat. Even if both sides prove the Dao as Great Emperors, Tianyu Emperor is probably no match for this man!”

The Immortals sighed and then dispersed, truly bringing the event to a close.

What else could they do if not disperse?

Tianyu Emperor and Tianyu Bell as a combination, even among the Saint Lords of the Divine Land, were at the pinnacle, no weaker than the Eastern Emperor Bell of the Eastern Emperor Clan, the Great Brahma Bell of Ahan Temple, the Xuanhuang Tower of the Great Profound Sect, the Xiayu Sword of The Grand Academy, and five other Imperial Arms, ranked among the Divine Land’s ten great Treasures.

Such a powerful figure not defeated in battle means others even less need not mention, unless several Saint Lords with Imperial Arms joined hands, there was simply no hope of suppressing him.

Even several Saint Lords working together only had hope of success, not a guarantee.

After all, this person’s methods are shocking and beyond imagination, capable of traversing All Realms, even delving into Reincarnation. Even uniting several Imperial Arms might not ensure his suppression, and even if suppressed, might not ensure his death, and even if slain, could not guarantee he wouldn’t return to life through Reincarnation.

Thus, the likelihood of forces joining hands is almost null.

What short-sightedness, to not see the hidden threat of the Wandao School? Isn’t it just about being unparalleled by unifying everything?

Who rules over the Divine Land? Which Ancient Great Emperor hasn’t, after Proving the Dao, reigned supreme?

Everyone does it; otherwise, where would Holy Land Immortal Sects and Imperial Dynasties come from?

How is Wandao School any different?

No difference at all, in fact, compared to those Ancient Great Emperors who had reigned supreme and established their own dynasties, the Honored Wandao is more reasonable and easier to talk to.

As long as you follow the rules, you almost needn’t worry about him laying hands on you, even if you possess earth-shaking Treasures, unparalleled opportunity, he would not covet what is yours— a true gentleman on the Righteous Path, a cornerstone of the Dao, at least in the memory of those Academy Monks, that’s the impression he left.

So, to talk about hidden threats, there actually aren’t any, or rather any True Immortal who could possibly prove the Dao possesses such threats. Unless enmities are formed, being cautious or not doesn’t make much difference, nor does it hold much significance.

That’s why Hehe Mountain previously made grand announcements, pinning the label of Outer Realm Demons on him, because they had formed an undying enmity, and couldn’t possibly let him grow stronger.

Outside of Hehe Mountain, many powers have hunted and imprisoned Academy Monks, but those were mostly second-rate or even less-mentioned groups. First-rate powers are not nonexistent but are extremely secretive, either withdrawing early or severing any connection or like Stealing Heaven and Changing Day, acting in secret.

Under the current circumstances, they would only disassociate and remain detached, definitely not jumping out to stoke the flames, let alone banding together to eradicate Wandao School.

So…

“Today, I, Wandao School, establish our path in the Divine Land!”

A single phrase reverberated through heaven and earth, stirring the hearts of many.

True Immortals, still lingering, and those unwilling to leave, all had their pupils shrink in focus, only to see the chaotic battlefield now ordered by the man in blood-stained blue robes. With one hand, he settled the Yin Yang Qi and the light of the Five Elements. In the blink of an eye, he smoothed out the chaotic space and repaired the shattered heavens and earth, and even Hehe Mountain, previously devastated by the battle, was reformed with its spirit intact.

After mending the heavens and earth, the hand that pressed down shifted to an uplifting gesture, mysteriously lifting a White Jade Immortal City from somewhere and placing it atop Hehe Mountain, linking it with the mountain’s Spirit Vein and even the lands’ great vicissitudes, transforming it into an Immortal Palace standing atop the peaks.

“This…”

“Such methods?”

“He is shaping the heavens and earth!”

“This Master of Ten Thousand Paths, truly possesses vast Divine Powers!”
