Chapter 2264 - Finale 3 (2/2)

“Old friend, wait forroared furiously as he ed as well

The Deathless Monarch also turned into his original form, the Deathless Celestial Phoenix, and loomed over the sky

The Acheron God Monarch turned into a massive tortoise that shook the lands with every step that it took

The four beasts guarded the Four Extre back into their original for down

It felt like four pillars had risen fro peng peng peng!

But with four consecutive pal intent flared in his eyes as he said, “Since you are courting death, I’ll fulfill your wish!+”

With a furious bellow, he was just about to kill all the God Monarchs present when he suddenly felt his hand freezing in midair

“Have you asked me for permission to kill theazes, a silhouette sloalked over fro er than when he beca from his body He had turned to a co frorown quite a bit” Vicious slowly retracted his hand as he assessed Zhang Xuan with narrowed eyes

Clearly, he was shocked by how Zhang Xuan had grown so quickly within just a few er? Even the Firmament is unable to hold me back I don’t believe that you can stop me…”

With a cold harru Xuan down, and Zhang Xuan raised his sword towith one another, and powerful shockwaves blasted everywhere, opening di shi+’s base in the Sky of Freedoainst hi shi+ transferred their powers to Zhang Xuan, their cultivation had fallen to the God King realerous for them to head to the battlefield

However, their experience was still there As long as they could acquire sufficient energy, they should be able to regain their cultivation soon enough

Kong shi+ pondered for a th, it’ll be difficult for hier than the God Monarchs!”

Vicious was an opponent whom they could not defeat even with their powers combined Even if they had transferred all their powers over to Zhang Xuan, it was unlikely that Zhang Xuan would be able to triumph over hi Xuan to touch the tip of the God Monarch realm Only then would aof opportunity open for him to overcome the limits of the God Monarch realer than the God Monarchs?” Luo Ruoxin muttered to herself

Back when her father was still conscious, he had said similar words to her However, as hard as she had tried, she had never been able to break through that limit Would the man she loved really be able to do it?

“Trust him He’ll be able to do it His senti heart will allow hi shi+ replied with a chuckle

…

Peng peng peng!

After a fes, Zhang Xuan’s finger was already bleeding profusely, and a deep gash had been inflicted on his chest

Just as Kong shi+ had said, even if Zhang Xuan had for in their powers, he was still not ahow formidable you would be, but it turns out that this is all you’ve got,” Vicious sneered coldly

Taking a few steps back, Zhang Xuan gasped for air as he looked at Vicious and said, “Since I’m not a match for you anyhy don’t you fulfill one final wish of est attack that you have”

“Are you finally ready to accept your fate? Very well, I shall fulfill that final wish of yours!”

With a cold sneer, Vicious slowly raised his pal his hand

Huala!

Then, he struck it down in a decisive ht of the attack caused the entire Firht, and a round

In the face of such an attack, Zhang Xuan closed his eyes, as if a person resigned to his fate

Peng!

His head burst apart, and his soul dissipated into the void

“Zhang Xuan!”

Seeing such a sight, everyone’s faces paled

Luo Qiqi staggered backward as she stared ahead, horrified, as if she was going to go insane

The Cloud Dragon Monarch and the others narrowed their eyes in disbelief

Even Kong shi+ and Luo Ruoxin were stunned by that scene

They had given their powers to Zhang Xuan to allow hih beyond the God Monarch real back?

What was their sacrifice for?

“No, that’s not right It’s the Deathless Monarch’s Quintessence of Deathlessness!” Kong shi+ suddenly cried out

Luo Ruoxin quickly took a closer look at the screen, and she saw the cri Xuan’s neck all this while breaking apart, causing a droplet of blood to float in the air

The droplet of blood burst into fla a sea of inferno Aure walked out calmly

Luo Ruoxin widened her eyes in astonishment “He… made use of Vicious’ power and the blood in the pendant to sever the Heavens’ I Xuan before, the resurrected Zhang Xuan did not possess the Library of Heaven’s Path anymore Free of the interference of the heavens, he finally e to do it?” Kong shi+ was taken aback as well

Their souls had been too deeply intertwined with the heavens, such that they could be considered as one That was also the reason Kong shi+ needed his soul to be disintegrated thrice before he could finally free himself from the restraints of the Heavens’ Order

Yet, the young man was able to free himself from the heavens so easily Just what kind of method did he use?

“I see, I see…” Luo Ruoxin nodded in realization “He used the method that Vicious used to liberate himself from the Soul Contract!”

The Soul Contract was a binding contract that was carved into one’s soul Unless the master released the servant, the servant’s life would forever remain in the control of the master

That was the sa Xuan and the Library of Heaven’s Path

In essence, it could be considered an even stronger form of a Soul Contract It was a contractual relationshi+p that was binding even after death, which hy Kong shi+ had resorted to special means to liberate himself

However, Vicious had explained to hiy had the power to liberate a person from a Soul Contract, and it was probably at thatsuch a plan

That was also why he had tried to convince Vicious to use his strongest attack against hiest attack, he would sever the bond with the Library of Heaven’s Path fro worked out as planned

…

“I see, so this is theout of the flahtened s from his earlier death

With a wave of his hand, he beckoned his clone over, who then morphed into a lotus

In that instant, everyone felt as if Zhang Xuan had become the Nine Skies, and the Nine Skies had become his

With a stomp of his feet, stability returned to the chaotic Nine Skies

The Primordial Golden Lotus of the Nine Skies was born with the power to stabilize the world, and through the connection between hi Xuan was able to utilize such a power

Not only so, after absorbing the cultivation of the Primordial Golden Lotus of the Nine Skies, he could feel the bottleneck that he had finally felt after taking in Kong shi+ and Luo Ruoxin’s powers loosening a little

There was a higher real to reach for it

“The relationshi+p between a master and his subordinates, the camaraderie of brothers, the ties between a teacher and a student, the sentiments between a parent and a child, the love that binds people together… It is an as that created the world This is what itXuan muttered to himself with a smile on his lips

The moment that his soul was liberated from the Library of Heaven’s Path, he had finally understood it

Did the world conizant of its surroundings, or did the world nurture the first life?

Was it the wind , or was it the heart that had moved?[2]

These were questions that had confounded countless people over the years

And of course, to the current Zhang Xuan… all of them were unimportant!

Without life and senti of the existence of the world be?

So, beyond love were the sentis interweaved in the world

All beings in the world possessed sentiments, and it was only with sentiments that the world ca all life in the world

Love was a sentiment

Hate was a sentiment

Joy was a sentiment

Pain was a sentiment

The interactions in the world were all tied to sentiments, be it farewells or reunions

“And I shall channel the sentiments of the world forXuan finally overca an existence transcending the God Monarchs

In that instant, it was as if a brand-neorld had appeared before hirew under nourished into his body, bringing hiht

He could only advance his cultivation through absorbing spiritual energy in the past, but with this advancement, this restraint had been released Be it the spatial turbulence, the priht for

“You…”

Not only did Vicious’ attack unexpectedly fail to kill Zhang Xuan, he even inadvertently helped the latter er as he launched yet another attack

“You resent the lofty God Monarchs for failing to save you fronant and humiliated to have served as my servant That is a sentiment You wish to destroy the world to vent your fury That is a sentiain ulti controlled by your sentiments, so how can you possibly not fall underXuan spoke with a voice that crescendoed with every word

With a raise of his hand, the sentihtly together, sealing off his movements entirely

Just like that, the indo had sentiments, it would fall under his jurisdiction

“You…” Vicious’ eyes widened in horror “Zhang shi+, I a to offer my soul to you onceall of this now…” Zhang Xuan looked upon Vicious coldly as he shook his head

Standing before hiirlfriend, Luo Qiqi, his direct disciples, and so many of his friends He had tried to destroy the entire Fir many lives in the process

How could he showXuan’s decisiveness, Vicious narrowed his eyes as he tried to escape, but the next h his entire body

Peng!

Vicious blew up, turning into countless surges of spiritual energy that surged over the entire Firy that had been devoured previously by the di Sea had all returned to the Fir life to the barren wilderness

“This…”

“Has everything ended just like that?”

The Cloud Dragon Monarch, Deathless Monarch, Fairy Linglong, and the others were flabbergasted They could hardly believe their eyes

They had crossed bloith Vicious earlier, so they knew just how terrifying his strength was Yet, such a powerful individual had been killed just like that Just hoerful had Zhang Xuan become?

Was there really another realm above the God Monarch real shi+ and Luo Ruoxin were finally able to release their tightly clenched fists

…

“This is the final fragment of the heavens I’ll return it to the Firmament now…”

The Heavens’ I above Zhang Xuan at this !

With a wave of his hand, the Library of Heaven’s Path, which had accompanied him ever since his transcension, flew up and fused with the sky of the Fir of a bell echoed in the air, and the devastated Fir to the chaotic flow of spiritual energy in the air

“It looks like the Firence of spiritual energy…” Zhang Xuan chuckled

The dimension fissure had closed after the completion of the heavens, and it would only be a matter of ti Xuan, come over here…”

After that was all done, a voice suddenly echoed in Zhang Xuan’s htly stunned at first, but he took a step tohere the voice was cole step seeht before a young ht him swordsmanshi+p back then

“Elder, you…”

Seeing that it was hiht that the young man was unfathomably powerful back then, and that was indeed the case

Even in Zhang Xuan’s current state, he realized that he was only a sliver stronger than the youngman had already reached the very peak of the God Monarchs, wielding powers that far exceeded those of Luo Ruoxin and Kong shi+

“I aXuan repeated the name contemplatively

This was the first time that he had heard the na you tosaid as he took a step forward

Zhang Xuan followed behind hi an unknown distance, they finally arrived before abefore the man who had eyes that seeh i Xuan shuddered a little

He could tell that this young er than him He had transcended the limits of God Monarchs as well, and his cultivation was much deeper andXuan with a snize her more as Luo Ruoxin, father!”

“Ruoxin’s father?” Zhang Xuan was astonished “You are the heavens of the Firmament?”

Luo Ruoxin had told him earlier that her father was the heavens of the Fir man

“Back then, I divided myself into three wills, and a will of mine became the heavens of the Fir to say that I’m the heavens of the Fir Xuan widened his eyes in astonishment

The Fir before him

Hoerful ht If you were the one who created the Firmament and you are the heavens themselves, ould you watch by the sidelines as Vicious tore apart the Fir Xuan asked

If it was not for his breakthrough, the Fir to watch as everything he had built fell to ruin?

Was he not concerned about his daughter at all?

Instead of answering Zhang Xuan’s question, Nie Yun gazed into Zhang Xuan’s eyes and asked, “Do you think that there are even stronger lifeforer lifeforuess so…”

He ht not have met anyone else, but since he had been able to cultivate to this level, there should be others who had done the sa man before him was one such example

“I have alondered about this question, so I tried to use my powers to peer above However, as a result of her world A palm descended from above to tear apart the Fired, the Firmament would have been utterly destroyed by that strike, and all life would have fallen to ruin So, I gathered all th to withstand the palm strike, but as a result of that, the heavens ended up splitting into three fraght, but I knew that if I wanted to overcoin of the palm, and explore the world beyond the Firmament, it would be impossible for me to do it alone So, I wanted to see if there is anyone else in the world who could transcend the boundaries of the God Monarch realm to stand on the saments of the heavens to the loorld, and I bestowed one of theed to another world And you have not let me down,” Nie Yun explained with a sed to another world… So,Xuan widened his eyes in astonishment

He did not think that there would be such a truth to his transcension

“Haha!” Nie Yun chuckled softly “Those who are native to this world carry great deference toward the world and the heavens,it harder for them to transcend nature It was a decision I made on the spur of the ht you would”

“I…” Zhang Xuan’s face reddened “If it wasn’t for Kong shi+, I never would have reached my current level”

His achieveuidance of his predecessor Had it not been forthe path ahead for him, it would have been hard for hiave hiht with Lingxi was the ideal opportunity for hih, but he chose to back down He prepared a hand that allowed hie, he lost the detere ahead in the face of adversity Without such a spirit, there’s no way he’ll be able to face life for Xuan fell silent

He had witnessed the battle back then, and Kong shi+ was indeed lacking decisiveness It steness to sacrifice Luo Ruoxin in order to cliht With that, he lost the opportunity toshi+ had won, Ruoxin would have lost her life!” Zhang Xuan exclaimed with a deep frown

Did the other party not care about the life and death of his daughter at all?

“I a to happen to her,” Nie Yun replied “You have also reached the same realm as me Do you think that I wouldn’t be able to save them in a battle of their level?”

If he had made a move, he could have saved Luo Ruoxin at the very lastthat no hare difference between a God Monarch and an existence who had transcended the God Monarchs

“Lingxi was born fro, and that’s why she chose to use the surname ‘Luo’ for her persona In order to convince her of the situation to prevent her e ahead of her, she still thinks that I’m in a coma at the moment” Nie Yun shook his head with a derisive smile directed at himself “I sure am a vicious father, aren’t I?

“I think it would be best for you to explain everything to her After all, she has already devoted all her feelings to you I reckon that she barely has any thoughts left for me… Haha, I think I shan’t appear before her for a period of ti upside down…”

Looking at Nie Yun with a conflicted expression, Zhang Xuan could not help but lament at how Luo Ruoxin had such an unreliable father With a deep sigh, he nodded “Alright, I’ll tell her about it…”

What else could he do? If he wanted to take Luo Ruoxin as his wife, he needed the approval of his future father-in-law He would just have to leave Luo Ruoxin to deal with Nie Yun in the future

“The Library of Heaven’s Path is an artifact forhts It is both a foundation and a li on your own abilities in the end to advance your cultivation, you have proven your own capabilities and potential I believe that you will achieve great things in the future As a father, I ahter to you” Nie Yun nodded with a satisfied s Xuan nodded for aHe turned to Nie Tong and asked, “Elder, are you the one who comprehended the Gods’ Sword Intent in the Azure?”

Based on what he had heard, the founder of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, just like Kong shi+, had risen to the Fir Xuan had not heard of the other party’s name yet

A person as that talented could not possibly have ree that I left behind with a sliver of my will I wanted to help you avoid soh the ranks and catch up totilanced at his elder brother with a deep look in his eyes

It was as if there was no one in his eyes other than his elder brother

To hi behind a sliver of his will in a loorld like the Azure was nothing at all, but it had indeed helped Zhang Xuan a lot along the way

It was that experience that had solidified his will to further his swords him to becoratitude” Zhang Xuan nodded

It see him all this while, and this left him a little conflicted within

“You should return for now and focus on your cultivation When your cultivation finally stabilizes, I’ll bring you to a greater world beyond so that you’ll know just how big the world is!” Nie Yun laughed heartily before waving his hand

With a distortion in space, Zhang Xuan returned to the Sky of Freedo before hi Xuan…”

With a beautiful sht into his eons are usually weaved into the robes of Chinese Emperors as a symbol of ultimate authority
