Chapter 707: Palace of Heaven and Kingdom of Hell (1/2)
The true Dao Flower had descended!
Lu Yun could tell that this Dao Flower wasn’t the one bearing the path of cultivation, but the actual one that bore the immortal dao! The flower of the path of cultivation had transformed into a delicate crystalline petal and returned to the Dao Flower proper.
The actual Dao Flower!
The turn of events caught even Lu Yun off guard, but he immediately pivoted into appropriate measures without delay. All of Dusk Province shook as four giant doors of swords materialized to guard the province.
……
“According to legend, the primordial divine court lured down the Dao Flower and erased its runes when supplanting the immortal dao,” a voice rang from outside Dusk, then continued in a frantic shout, “Are you trying to do the same, Lu Yun?!”
“Do you even have a brain?” Lu Yun looked over his shoulder at the man. “My dao partner is the Dao Sovereign, a personage approved by the Dao Flower itself. Why would I go to such lengths to topple the immortal dao?”
Boom!
The Dao Flower trembled as its layers of petals unfurled to grace the Dusk Province.
“Is he… establishing a sacred land again?” many clamored in shock and disbelief.
Lu Yun had only summoned the projection of the Dao Flower in his last failed attempt to establish his dao, but this time, the actual flower had descended and was blooming in Dusk Province! Waves of rich immortal energy washed over the land.
“Look at the stamen of the flower,” someone shouted. “Is that a... palace?”
Spectators focused their gazes to take a closer look at the center of the flower, seeing a crystalline palace emerge from it. Its size and materials were impressively unknown, and the exquisite craftsmanship beyond the abilities of this world. The palace seemed to have been born in nature rather than built by living beings.
“What is it? A treasure, a real palace, or… some sort of heritage?” From their vantage points in their heavenly palaces, the celestial emperors of the world watched everything play out in Dusk Province, their gazes penetrating through layers of space.
……
After a lifetime of torment, the poison curse in Qing Yu’s body had finally been dispersed by the lineup of treasures and refinement. Luminous and incandescent, she looked up as layers of dao light washed over her, and the radiant palace floated down to hover over her head.
Slowly, the Dao Flower faded away, while the dazzling palace grew increasingly concrete. Compelled to open her arms, Qing Yu incorporated the palace into her body.
Momentary scuffles broke out on the ground and air as everyone wanted a piece of a treasure from the Dao Flower. Even the demon god flickered into existence, but all action was quickly quelled as the entire province entered lockdown. The four evil coffins re-emerged from the void and soared into the sky, arranging themselves into a square that slowly overlapped with the four sword doors isolating Dusk Province.
Clank!
The four swords came howling through the sky and shattered the four coffins. Tremendous killing power suffused the sky as giant swords of cyan, white, red, and black materialized in the air and became one with the sword doors, turning the sword formation into reality.
All living souls in Dusk prostrated themselves on the ground to worship the four swords!
At the border of Dusk, Sword Divine immediately took off from his hiding spot. He didn’t dare linger any longer. He could tell that the four swords were much more powerful than the Sword of Chaos. Even if he found its heart and recovered the Sword of Heritage and Sword of Slaughter, the Sword of Chaos would still fall short by a great margin!
