Chapter 450: Chapter 414: World-Shaking Han Wu, Suspected Appearance of the Immortal Realm

SHHFFFT!

At this critical moment, Thunder Control the Great Saint’s gaze turned cold.

With a delicate wave of her hand, she finally succeeded in communicating with the Immortal Thunder Shocking Halberd. The weapon, which had been suspended in the eastern sky over the dream battlefield, began to awaken.

The Immortal Thunder Shocking Halberd was the Enlightenment Weapon of the Thunder Saint Venerable.

According to legend, after the Thunder Saint Venerable attained enlightenment, she carried the Immortal Thunder Shocking Halberd with her in her final years to explore the Chaos barrier in search of the Immortal Realm.

One hundred thousand years later, on a certain dark night, the Immortal Thunder Shocking Halberd returned on its own.

Its shaft was tainted by a strange, immortal shadow. Heaven and earth wept, and a rain of blood fell unceasingly.

But...

Something was awakening even faster than the Immortal Thunder Shocking Halberd: the Vast Sea Dragon Staff!

The Vast Sea Dragon Staff was the Enlightenment Weapon of the Vast Sea Venerable Emperor. It represented dominion over the great oceans, commanding all the waters between heaven and earth with a divine might that looked down upon the world.

Unbelievably, the Emperor of Great Xuan had asserted his power, causing the Vast Sea Dragon Staff to switch sides and aid Han Wu, the Sub-Venerable.

ROAR—!

A dragon’s roar that shook the nine heavens echoed throughout the world.

A boundless, colossal true dragon burst from the abyss, forcefully squeezing itself into the sky. It cut off the power of the Heaven and Earth Furnace in a truly shocking display!

Its body was immense, reaching up to the heavens and down into the Nine Netherworld. A brilliant blue radiance rippled from the scales on its body, crushing everything in its path. Its grim aura was utterly terrifying.

This true dragon seemed to stretch across the ends of the world. It was magnificent and boundless, its length immeasurable, and it was wreathed in Chaotic Profound Yellow Qi.

This was the Vast Sea Dragon Staff, the Enlightenment Weapon of the Vast Sea Venerable Emperor. Its every move could change the face of heaven and earth.

"How can this be?"

"Heavens, another Enlightenment Weapon has appeared! Is the epoch truly about to be reset?!"

"Waaah, someone save me, save me..."

Cries of astonishment, terror, and despair... all mingled together.

The Eight Domains were shaken. Countless beings fell to their knees, begging the gods for forgiveness.

This was clearly meant to be the dawning of the Dream Dao Epoch, yet it felt more like its conclusion.

Except for the Eight Domains Purple Gold Cauldron and the Heaven-Devouring Demon Coffin, all the other Enlightenment Weapons had appeared and were now in a standoff.

What was happening? Was this truly the end of the world?

At this moment, even Han Wu, the Sub-Venerable, wore a grim expression.

Regardless, an Enlightenment Weapon was the culmination of a Saint Venerable’s entire life of pursuing their Dao, containing the ultimate power of this world.

If so many Enlightenment Weapons were to fully awaken, the consequences would be unimaginable!

By then, even before the legendary Dream Emperor had a chance to descend, the Eight Domains would likely be destroyed.

...

BOOM!

Immortal light erupted, and a brilliant divine radiance bloomed.

The assembled Enlightenment Weapons gradually awakened, unleashing their divine might.

Countless strands of Dao rhythm spread out, pressing down upon the sky.

The powers of multiple factions collided and intertwined. The dream battlefield fractured piece by piece, but the Demon Emperor’s Dream remained firmly locked in place.

’They’re still not getting out of there?’ Fang Yang’s gaze was profound.

He watched as Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady remained trapped within the Demon Emperor’s Dream. They were unable to escape, but they also had no desire to.

At this point, while his Flawed Celestial Destiny Mark had been the catalyst, their frenzied devouring of each other’s auras had taken on a life of its own.

These two Young Venerables had already wagered everything they had and everything they were.

Whoever won would rise from their opponent’s corpse, inherit everything they possessed, and undergo a constant metamorphosis to become a more perfect being.

But whoever lost would be cast down into Eternal Purgatory!

’Heh. Is what’s mine so easy to take?’ Fang Yang’s eyes were as cold as ice, seeming to contain crackling thunder.

Originally, he had only needed to stay in the dream battlefield for three years, following the plan, and his Celestial Destiny Mark would have become complete.

Then, he would have been able to openly wield the power of a Young Venerable.

But then, the unexpected happened.

These two Young Venerables had been plotting against him all along.

Now, watching them fight to the death in a battle that grew more brutal by the second, the light in Fang Yang’s eyes grew even colder.

BZZZT...

A new, powerful ripple of energy came from the vault of the heavens.

Fang Yang’s expression shifted slightly as he snapped his head up.

This fluctuation... it was an Enlightenment Weapon, a new one!

...

Suddenly, a mournful, funereal tone echoed as heaven and earth began to weep.

Everyone immediately looked over, their faces filled with confusion.

At the edge of the sky, a divine light of the purest black squeezed its way in, greedily devouring all kinds of spiritual energy to strengthen itself.

The dense divine light slowly faded, revealing a pitch-black demonic coffin that obscured the secrets of heaven.

As everyone watched, a figure appeared.

It was wreathed from head to toe in billowing purple demonic flames, its form indistinct and its features impossible to discern.

The Heaven-Devouring Demon Coffin!

The Enlightenment Weapon of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Emperor had appeared!

Aside from Saint Emperor Vast Sun’s Purple Gold Eight Domains Cauldron, which had still not made an appearance, basically every other known Enlightenment Weapon in the world was now present.

And now, of all things, it was a special Enlightenment Weapon like the Heaven-Devouring Demon Coffin that had arrived.

One had to remember that Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady were still trapped within the Demon Emperor’s Dream.

So, what was the purpose of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Emperor’s heir appearing now?

"A mournful zither’s tune searches for the path to immortality."

These were its words, spoken in a hazy, androgynous voice that was impossible to identify as male or female.

But the Heaven-Devouring Demon Coffin was already thrumming and shaking.

In an instant, a purple wave of energy that blotted out the sky and sun surged forth, like a demonic sound rising from the road to the underworld.

The Saints were bewildered.

This was because the mournful, demonic sound did not interfere with the battlefield where the Longevity Diagram, the Celestial Demon Banner, and the other Enlightenment Weapons clashed.

It seemed as if the Demon Emperor’s heir had merely come to witness the dawn of the Dream Epoch from the sidelines.

But in the next moment, the expressions of the Saints changed dramatically.

The Heaven-Sundering Demon Butterfly was overjoyed, the Fire Qilin cackled with glee, Thunder Control the Great Saint’s face turned grim, and the Emperor of Great Xuan burned with fury.

The overall dream battlefield remained unchanged, but within it, the Demon Emperor’s Dream had undergone a bizarre transformation.
