Chapter 919: Kunlun (1/2)
Having refined the Heavenly Grass, eight of the legendary spirit roots were rooted in Lu Yun’s body of the world. He might not be in the chaos realm, but his strength had reached such unfathomable heights that he was now confident of vying with Leize even if he didn’t summon the sea of hellfire!
The greatest drawback to the current situation was that since human dao had been fully established, he would no longer affect the great dao if he released his arts and abilities. In fact, the human dao would slowly convert him until he became a life form of this era.
Lu Yun had calculated that this would be his last fight in the great wilderness.
If he took the field again, he would no longer be able to return to his time period and neither would he exist in this era. His final form would be to become one with the great dao and transcend into an ethereal and intangible existence.
…..
Lu Yun’s utterly wild and violent blow let loose with everything he had. Gushing hellfire leapt through the skies to crash brutally into the enormous formation and three weapons of great dao. So devastating was the collision that it spread outward in a soundless shock blast, destroying everything on Mount Buzhou.
But not a single soul died at Lu Yun’s hands.
Countless celestial soldiers and several concealed demon gods were sent flying to unknown destinations. The three dao weapons blazing with the magnificence of a sun were also blasted into space, never to be seen again.
Mount Buzhou quaked uncontrollably as the energy of the world surged and ebbed, scaring Haotian senseless. He fled back into the cosmos with the remainder of his court, not daring to face the human youth any longer.
More than his greatest trump card—the formation locking down the peak of the mountain—had shattered from one physical punch, half of his court had been demolished as well! The celestial court’s courage and valor were no more.
……
Up in the highest reaches of the world of celestials, Hongjun, Leize, and Huaxu turned to Lu Yun at the same time with widened eyes. Down at the foot of Mount Buzhou, Fuxi, Wahuang, and Ah Zhi peered upwards in overwhelmed amazement.
Lu Yun’s blow had shaken Mount Buzhou to the core; it was still trembling even now.
Pandemonium sowed across the great wilderness. Defeated connate demon gods who were still stirring from the sidelines promptly went as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to entertain any more rebellious thoughts.
Nuanzi and other demon gods who neither backed a connate race nor answered to the celestial court were frightened out of their wits. They cowered in their hiding spots, deathly afraid that they were next on the Flame Emperor’s list.
“I’m not his match, even with Worldcarver in hand.” Xuanyuan looked toward the world of celestials with shock. A little girl about four years old grasped his hand, staring curiously at Mount Buzhou with her big black eyes.
This little girl was his daughter, Xuanyuan Xiaoyue.
The Xuanyuan title had become a surname and part of an official clan legacy. They would be the first bulwark for humanity and passed on for eons to come.
……
“That isn’t enough,” Lu Yun murmured to himself as he looked to the west of the world of immortals. “The fortunes of the celestial court still exist. They aren’t truly destroyed until that’s gone as well.”
When Taiyi established his court, he’d tied the fortunes of the land to the group of connate demon gods under his command. Those fortunes were both the providence of the celestial court and of those demon gods.
Therefore, though Taiyi had fallen, the celestial court still remained because its fortunes were intact. As for how many demon gods were part of it, no one knew. The cosmos were infinite and boundless, filled with perished great masters of which a great amount were connate demon gods!
“…that’s Kunlun! So Kunlun Mountain’s in the world of celestials!” Lu Yun muttered as he stood at the highest point of Mount Buzhou and looked at the divine mountain to the west. “The celestial court’s life point is located in Kunlun Mountain!” [1]
He took one step forward and headed for the mountain. Throughout all of this, the little fox remained frozen in place in Lu Yun’s robes, and the blood demon on Lu Yun’s shoulder was knocked out cold from the force of his master’s punch.
