Chapter 2264 Finale 3
As long as he did not cancel the Soul Contract from his side, there should have been no way for Vicious to liberate himself from it
This was si a God Monarch, was unable to free himself from a Soul Contract on his own
In order to prevent Vicious froainst him, he had made sure to seal a Soul Contract with him while they were on the Master Teacher Continent This way, even if Vicious gained the ability to escape from the Book of Heaven’s Path, he would still be bound by the laws of the Soul Contract
“Ah, the Soul Contract? It was a headache to me for quite a while, but I realized that nant energy that can even neutralize the heavens! As long as I can obtain sufficient strength, it isn’t too difficult to tear apart that farce of a Soul Contract!” Vicious s force that held one soul hostage to the other, but the y was a force that could neutralize even the heavens As long as it was used properly, it should not come as a surprise that it could neutralize a Soul Contract as well
“Is that so?” Zhang Xuan lint flashed across his eyes
“Have I satisfied your curiosity now? It isme to the Firmament! You can die in peace now!” Vicious scoffed
An ancient, distant aura flowed froer While they were talking, Vicious hadhim to further reinforce his cultivation
Luo Ruoxin also noticed that soe over to hi Xuan, the more the black hole devours, the more powerful he will become…”
“Let’s make ourXuan brandished his sword and said, “Since that’s the case, shall we fight it out then?”
Hong long!
A powerful burst of Sword Intent gushed forth from his body as he executed his God Monarch realm sword art
This technique carried all his persistence, pushi+ng his Pathos of Heaven cultivation technique to its very liht to split Vicious in half
Luo Ruoxin also made a ed forth with a sword in her grasp
Her sword art was extremely similar to that used by the God Monarch of the Sword Hut It carried a relentlesstoward an enemy, but at the same time, her movements felt free and unrestrained
“Splendid! Your attacks are indeed reainst me…” Vicious chuckled as he pushed his hand doard
In an instant, his pal space shattered under the pressure, and it felt like even the sun, moon, and stars would be knocked down fro Xuan and Luo Ruoxin were knocked flying simultaneously under the force of the palm strike, and fresh blood spurted from theirwith one another, they were still no match for Vicious!
Just what kind of realm had that fellow reached?
“Insolent!”
Zhang Xuan’s clone suddenly bellowed loudly as he began walking over Every step that he took was acco of a lotus flower, and faintly, one could hear a running strea at it fro assimilated the Primordial Golden Lotus of the Nine Skies, his cultivation was no weaker than the current Zhang Xuan
He raised his fist, and suht in his arms, he punched Vicious
In retaliation, Vicious waved his hand, and his clone was sent flying as well
He was unable tothis sight, Zhang Xuan clasped his own face
Even after beco a God Monarch, his clone was still unable to kick off its showoff personality Instead of wasting his effort on creating such decorative effects, it would have been better for hiy into that punch!
That fool…
“We need to make a move as well! If they fall, we’ll be next!” Little Chick bellowed as he unfurled his black wings, setting the sky ablaze with his black flaht out their own attacks
The coh to utterly obliterate any of the Skies, but the ene was Vicious, who had already absorbed all the y As their attacks approached Vicious, the black hole suddenly grewthe attacks of the God Monarchs
A moment later, those attacks rebounded at the God Monarchs with greater ferocity than before
Peng peng peng!
The seven God Monarchs, along with Zhang Xuan, his clone, and Luo Ruoxin, were knocked flying by that onslaught of attacks
Even with the coht of the God Monarchs, they were unable to withstand even a single attack from Vicious!
How in the world was that scoundrel so powerful?
“Playti all ten God Monarchs back, Vicious took a step forward as he raised his fist once more to press down on the crowd
“Insolent, you wretched demon!”
A loud bellow suddenly echoed in the air, and the elder of the Sky of Heavenly Sword suddenly appeared before them With a slash of his sword, he for everyone
“God Monarch? He is a God Monarch as well?” Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in shock
All along, as the elder had taken his position behind the young ht was the God Monarch of the Sword Hut, he had assu at the very th, he realized that the other party was a God Monarch!
But if the elder was a God Monarch… as the young man?
“He is the God Monarch of the Sky of Heavenly Sword,” Luo Ruoxin explained as she struggled to rise back to her feet
“Wait… then who is the youngXuan was bewildered
“He is…”
Luo Ruoxin was just about to answer the question when the space ahead of the the silver river of sword qi to bend away Following that, the God Monarch of the Sky of Heavenly Sas knocked flying before crashi+ng into the ground, for Xuan, whose cultivation and mastery of swordsmanshi+p far exceeded that of the elder, was no match for Vicious, so there was no way that he could last for long against Vicious
“Hahaha! God Monarchs? Nothing nated with time! Today, I shall obliterate the Nine Skies and destroy the Firround zero!”
After subduing the God Monarch of the Sky of Heavenly Sword as well, Vicious began laughing frenziedly The space all around collapsed rapidly, signaling the i downfall of the Fir Xuan clenched his fists tightly
He could continue pitting his life against Vicious, but it would be foolish to keep trying the sa for so different to happen
Both he and his clone had already exerted their greatest power, and Luo Ruoxin had utilized her strongest trump cards Yet, they were still unable to stop Vicious
Was he already invincible in the Firmament?
Did they really have no choice but to watch the collapse of the Firmament helplessly?
“The only way is to have your Heavens’ Imperfection return to the heavens and have the heavens suppress hihtly clenched fists
“ReturnXuan understood thebehind those words
The Library of Heaven’s Path in his body was a fragment of the heavens, and if he relinquished it, the heavens would finally be completed With the reinstatement of the heavens, the laws of the heavens would swiftly be enforced, and they ht be able to fix the dimension fissure and expel Vicious from the world
It was just that there was a problem with that plan…
“The current Vicious is si If even our forces combined are unable to suppress him, will the heavens, even co Xuan shook his head skeptically
The laws of the heavens were indeed powerful, but they were not absolute The fact that God Monarchs were able to tear open dih space was evidence of that
Given Vicious’ overwhelth, could the heavens really enforce their laws and crush him?
“This…” Luo Ruoxin contemplated for a ht The heavens won’t be able to suppress hiht be able to wake up With his strength, he should be able to slay Vicious easily!”
“He?” Zhang Xuan frowned
“I’ll bring you over toa deep breath, Luo Ruoxin grabbed Zhang Xuan’s hand and quickly tore open a diht before me?” Vicious harrumphed coldly as he pressed his pal!
Luo Ruoxin was knocked down froered by Vicious’ attack, Zhang Xuan immediately executed his sword art once !
Yet again, it was easily deflected by Vicious’ powers
“The two of you should quickly head over We’ll hold hi!” Little Chick exclai the area not to escape but to figure out a way to save the Fired forward to tie Vicious down At the same time, Luo Qiqi alsospace
“Let’s go!”
Seeing how everyone was charging forth without fear of death to cover the Xuan’s eyes reddened a little He knew that tiht, so he quickly wrapped his hand around Luo Ruoxin’s waist before creating a di into it with her
The next instant, they were in the Sky of Freedoer looked like the paradise it did before The collapse of the Firreat chaos everywhere, and this center of the Fir Xuan looked at the young lady in his embrace and asked, “Where is the person you spoke of?”
If the person she spoke of could really save the Firmament, it would be a small price to pay for him to sacrifice his own life
“He’s ulated her zhenqi to recover her wounds as she explained, “The blood inside the pendant I have you belongs to him, and the Deathless Monarch used to be his ta Xuan widened his eyes in realization
That explained why the blood in the pendant resembled Luo Ruoxin’s so much but still somewhat differed
That was also probably the reason the will left behind by the Deathless Monarch unhesitatingly acknowledged hi the pendant
“Is your father a God Monarch as well, or does he possess powers surpassing that of a God Monarch?” Zhang Xuan asked
The blood in the pendant had the ability to calm his Library of Heaven’s Path and restore rationality to his mind That was an ability that even the current him did not possess Furthermore, based on what he had heard froer than her
If that was the case, why did he fall into a coain allow hiain his consciousness?
Luo Ruoxin clenched her fists tightly before answering his doubts hesitantly “He isn’t a God Monarch… but the heavens!”
“Heavens? You are saying that your father is the heavens?” Zhang Xuan found it hard to believe what he was hearing
“That’s right Fifty years ago, my father was unable to withstand the prowess of thatinto a coments, and the Heavens’ Order and Heavens’ Imperfection fell into the chaotic space I became the overseer of the Heavens’ Nature, and I have been working ever since to ensure the stability of the Firain consciousness is to gather all of the scattered pieces It’s for that reason that I was so determined not to fail I descended to the Master Teacher Continent to study the Great Codex of Spring and Autu shi+ Before I fought with Kong shi+, I also entrusted hi that he could save my father in my place if I lostXuan nodded in realization
Shortly after they met each other on the Master Teacher Continent, Luo Ruoxin had told hi to save her close kin, but as she had never spoken about the matter after that, it had eventually slipped his mind
From the looks of it, it seemed like the person she wanted to save was her father, the heavens of the Firmament
But was it really possible for the heavens to ive birth to a child?
Zhang Xuan noticed an anomaly in her words and asked, “You mentioned that you are the overseer of the Heavens’ Nature… Does thatthe overseer of a frag it for the ti toXuan heaved a sigh of relief
Thatas he could extract the Heavens’ I would be resolved There was no need for her to die for this
Of course, he did not want to die either, but he did not wish for the young lady before him to come to any more harm than this
“So, if I extract the Heavens’ Imperfection from my body, will your father co Xuan asked
“This… I’m not too certain,” Luo Ruoxin replied hesitantly as she looked at the collapsing Firmament around her
As the heavens of the Firmament, she was not certain whether her father could really awaken when the Firained consciousness, would he still have enough strength to defeat the powerful Vicious?
Even though she viewed this as their greatest hope, she was unsure about it
“It looks like you aren’t certain about it Since that’s the case, I think it’ll be better for us to keep that as our last resort It’ll be safer for us to rely on ourselves instead of a stroke of luck Let’s think of a plan together!” Zhang Xuan said “With you,shi+, I don’t think that it’s utterly i shi+? But he…” Luo Ruoxin frowned
“Kong shi+ is dead—is that what you were going to say? He isn’t really dead yet According to what I heard, his death in the duel between the two of you was just a way to free himself from the restraints of the heavens Most likely, just like Wei Changfeng, he possesses the Innate Soul E, he finally understood what the key for Kong shi+ retaining his previous consciousness was If he possessed the Innate Soul Embryo as well, he would not lose his sense of self even after death
With all the cards that Kong shi+ had prepared for this event, it should not take too long for hi those words, Luo Ruoxin was taken aback She did not expect Kong shi+ to have prepared such a hand
“We’ll know once we head over to take a look If I’m not mistaken, he should have already recovered Otherwise, his disciples would have coe calae Zi Yuan and the others were lacking in strength compared to the God Monarchs, they would have headed over in order to offer their help
The fact that they re more important that they had to attend to
And this i shi+’s revival!
“This…” Luo Ruoxin widened her eyes in realization as she found Zhang Xuan’s words perfectly logical
“Let’s head over!”
With a flick of his finger, Zhang Xuan created a di shi+ had left Traveling to the other side, he swiftly saw an oldtheir arrival, the old reeted them with a smile “You’re here”
Who else could the oldshi+?
The World’s Teacher was back!
Just as Zhang Xuan had guessed, he had discreetly come back to life while everyone’s attention was preoccupied with the happenings over at the Flooding Sea
“You…” Luo Ruoxin widened her eyes in astonish shi+ would have prepared a way to come to life, but she did not expect him to recover so quickly!
“Well, I have been concealing quite a few cards fro shi+ said with a smile “For one, I have left a Soul Imprint in the Netherworld Pool to accuo, all in preparation for this moment In our battle back then, I made use of the opportunity from my death to free myself from the restraints of the heavens, but in return for that,devastated It took me the last few days to make a recovery”
Skilled in the h only a few days had passed on the Fir shi+
After recovering fro shi+ had really returned, Luo Ruoxin shook her head and said, “We are indeed quite strong, but it still won’t be easy for us to defeat Vicious…”
Earlier, they had all collaborated with one another, but they were still unable to stop Vicious Even if they added another Kong shi+ into the e difference?
The situation would likely re Even if we put our strength together, it isn’t likely that ill be a match for the other party However, what if we channel all of our strength into a single person?” Kong shi+ asked with a sle person?”
Both Luo Ruoxin and Zhang Xuan were a little confused as to what Kong shi+ was getting at
“That palh the Fir shi+ said “There’s no doubt that it wields treth, far beyond e can handle Vicious has absorbed the entirety of this power, as well as fifty years of spiritual energy froht him normally, there’s no way that we’ll be a match for him
“However, if we channel all of our powers into a single person, we e the result!”
“Hoe do so?” Luo Ruoxin asked
Such a thing was easier said than done
God Monarchs were already the strongest existence in the world If it was that easy to absorb the powers of another person, her cultivation would not have renant for so many years
“My idea is very si Xuan and have him overcome the limits of a God Monarch If he succeeds, he will be able to save the Fir Xuan was taken aback “Why xi cultivates the conceptualization of freedo a state that transcends nature and desire However, she is tied down by her father and the heavens, and she also has someone whom she yearns for She will never be able to transcend in her current condition,” Kong shi+ said
He turned to Luo Ruoxin and asked, “If I’ our battle on theit all up to die at ht?”
Luo Ruoxin was unable to say a word
Such a thought did flash across hertheir battle It was for that reason that they had ended up subconsciously holding back,it appear like an ordinary spar instead of a life-and-death duel
“One who is unable to transcend oneself will not be able to transcend nature You won’t be able to overcome the limitations of a God Monarch no y you absorb As for hed deeply “I ahten the whole world, but I don’t want anyone to sacrifice the so I have too much compassion in me, and that’s a flaw If I could harden my heart back then to exterminate the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, ouldn’t face such a crisis now”
Back then, after he killed Vicious, the ranks of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe had swiftly collapsed Yet, he had chosen to let them off in the most decisive moment due to the benevolence in his heart
If only he had hardened his heart and pushed on, they would not have been facing such a situation
“So, I a Xuan, your cultivation technique is aligned with your will and intent, and there is no flaw I can see in you You seek to live your life to the fullest Even at the cost of your death, as long as you are able to live with your conscience, you will be able to charge forward bravely and overcome any obstacle Such a person is more flexible and has more rooht beyond the two of us!” Kong shi+ said
“This…” Zhang Xuan frowned
He did not expect Kong shi+ to have such an evaluation of hi when Kong shi+ waved his hand “You don’t need to feel bad about this We don’t have the tiroom anyone else anymore, and even if ere able to make it in time, I don’t think that anyone would be able to do better than you already have
“God Monarch LingxiHeaven’s Nature has granted her a deep understanding of the heavens I govern the Heavens’ Order If we pass our powers over to you, you will gain the coether with your clone, the Primordial Golden Lotus of the Nine Skies, you will surely be able to stabilize the Firmament, reverse the tides, and vanquish the intruder!”
Seeing how Kong shi+’sXuan turned to look at Luo Ruoxin, only to see her nodding in agreement
Since that was the case, he nodded as well “Alright then, let’s go with that”
Hong long!
They swiftly sat down, and soon, two surges of energy began flowing into Zhang Xuan’s body
This caused his body to stiffen a little In that moment, he felt as if he hadabove the nine skies
Be it his soul, physical body, or zhenqi, all of theer and more powerful
…
“The lot of you dare stopdown Zhang Xuan…” Vicious sneered coldly as he knocked Luo Qiqi, Zhang Xuan’s clone, and the others flying
The combined prowess of them all was indeed for
The Flooding Sea had devoured all the spiritual energy in the Firy in the cities, and this y was now under Vicious’ control This granted hi that stood in his path
Even though these God Monarchs and Conferred God Kings were already the strongest existences in the world, they were powerless before him
The current Vicious was like the indomitable tyrant of the Firmament No one could stop him
“If the Fir I, the Cloud Dragon Monarch, will fight you down to on Monarch ous Five-clawed Golden Dragon[1], and charged right at Vicious
“You? You aren’t worthy!”
With a wave of his hand, Vicious held the Five-clawed Golden Dragon tightly in his grasp No led, he was unable to escape from Vicious’ clutches
