Chapter 1836: Primordial Sun and Moon

“It doesn’t matter why I’ve come. In any case, you can’t keep me here… What is a demon? You humans will never be able to imagine it.”

The Night Demon Emperor let out a cold laugh, and with a light stroke of his finger, he sliced open space…

His demonic claws could rend space itself. This ability was akin to how Cangwu Gu Sansi could rewind time—defying the heavens! Irreplicable!

But…..

He tore open space not in order to leave.

But because… he was sending out the Night Demon Clan!

Crash!

The Night Demon Emperor’s army was right there inside the spatial rift.

A full four to five hundred thousand!

And at the same time, beneath Nirvana Lake….

Buzz…

A terrifying light, a terrifying aura, a boundless, peerless breath of life…

Was awakening!

Ji Long frowned, recalling that old maxim.

From the Human Realm emerges the Cloud Court, beneath the waters swims the Leviathan.

Tonight the sun and moon rise afloat, Primordial Times do not return of themselves.

Demons rise to slaughter and sow chaos—where then go god and witch?

In the end, all is but a mayfly.

God, Witch, and Demon had all appeared; clearly the omen was being fulfilled. Then would the Leviathan emerge next? And what exactly were the sun and moon?

Sun and moon…

Sun and moon?

“When the Main World fell and the worlds split, even the sun and moon perished. It was equivalent to an epochal replacement, yet matter is conserved and never truly destroyed, so… the sun and moon still exist… These are the sun and moon of the far ancient.”

Sui Yi found it somewhat strange. That the sun and moon still existed was normal enough, but today’s Nirvana Lake… it might be fate, yet it might also be fate under someone’s control.

—Why are the sun and moon awakening?

Since they had fallen, by rights the laws of heaven and earth had no reason to let them awaken again, for their fall was one of the signs of the Main World’s epochal replacement. Though that replacement was imperfect, because the three Primordial Spirits were still alive, it could only be called a flawed epoch.

But now that the sun and moon had begun to awaken, did that mean…

The far ancient era was going to return?

If others knew the wild speculation racing through Sui Yi’s mind at this moment, they would surely be shocked. But Sui Yi was the High Priest; her vision naturally reached farther and pierced deeper than most. Thinking thus, a nameless anxiety welled in her heart.

And now, the sun and moon beneath Nirvana Lake had already begun to surface.

One half was a colossal orb of daylight, whose radiance shone through the lakewater, casting a blazing, dazzling white; the other half was a crescent of silvery moonlight.

Vast, overpowering… far exceeding any Supreme present.

“At last… as expected.” The Night Demon Emperor was somewhat agitated, his eyes brimming with greed…

He was just about to dive down…

Between heaven and earth, an indistinct stream of ink-black qi… coiled and wound about…

A tall, white-haired scholarly man.

The people of the Ink Sect fell to their knees.

The Sword Master fixed his gaze on him, and sneered: “Ink Supreme! I knew you would never miss such a grand spectacle. Sure enough, you arrived long ago…”

The Ink Supreme carried not a trace of the Sword Master’s sharp, cutting aura. He was like a pool of ink already ground smooth—mellow and refined. “Fortunately, I came, or I wouldn’t have witnessed such a magnificent battle. It is merely a pity… that I couldn’t see Yazu’s true strength…”

Yazu’s expression was indifferent. “For that, you must thank Lord God’s Jasper.”

God’s Jasper had already arrived upon the riverbank. She had been watching the drama unfold from the start, her presence faint. Yet Ji Long’s mention of her at this moment was also a warning to the Ink Supreme that not only was the Night Demon Emperor here, God’s Jasper was as well…

If the Shura hadn’t fallen into Sui Yi’s pit within the Dragon Ape

Imperial Tomb and had its true body grievously wounded, it would likely have come to join the fun too.

Infighting is folly.

But she also knew such a warning had little effect, for she had already sensed the Sword Master’s flickering gaze and the Ink Supreme’s concealed intent…

The far ancient sun and moon—could this power let their strength break through the Supreme realm?

Supremes had their gradations of strength… most of them belonged to the first tier.

Break into the second tier?

The third tier?

Any one step up, and the distribution of power among the Human Race would have to be rewritten. Even the “One” in the Three Realms Unity would have to shift position.

After all, Supreme Yun was the strongest of the first tier. The moment anyone stepped into the second tier…

Everything would change.

So then…

The Sword Master swallowed a fiery red fruit, his strength rapidly recovering. Sui Yi couldn’t be bothered to stop him, for it was meaningless.

The Ink Supreme was obscure and unreadable, very quiet.

God’s Jasper leaned against the railing of the bridge… transmitting sound to Zhao Nian…

The Night Demon Emperor’s eyes flickered…

Ji Long had yet to reveal her true strength from beginning to end.

Regarding the confidence Ji Si had once displayed, the people of the Ink Sect, and the others as well, were somewhat puzzled.

What trump card did Ya Palace possess that left them unafraid of Supremes? It seemed even the Supremes harbored some misgivings about Ji Long.

The sun and moon beneath the water rose higher and higher…

Only six people were qualified to vie for them.

The Sword Master, the Ink Supreme, the Night Demon Emperor, God’s Jasper, Ji Long, and Sui Yi.

Up above, the Grand Unification Array had shattered, and over ten thousand Sword Cultivators of the Sword Sect encircled Li Luo and the others.

Down below, the people of the Ink Sect, the Cloud Court, and Ya Palace confronted one another…
