Chapter 2012: Sword of the Heavenly Dao
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“You… who the hell are you?!”
A hoarse yet profound voice traveled over from the distance.
The Heavenly Depravity God gripped his shattered chest as he flew out from the cracked stone wall. As if they could see through all darkness, his ink-black eyes focused on the face of the nearby male.
He was seething with rage right now. Not only was he caught by surprise and severely wounded, but the palm just then had even annihilated one hundred thousand of his sinister devils!
One had to realize, he had only gathered one million sinister devils after searching for such a long time. Yet the palm just then had destroyed a tenth of them! It was clear that the male was trying to ruin his plan!
The Heavenly Depravity God was burning with fury.
He wanted to learn of the male’s identity before torturing him to death!
“My name is Night Monarch, and I’m the Heavenly Disciple Attendant for the First Heavenly Disciple,” the male replied calmly.
His introduction was extremely simple, yet it caused the Heavenly Depravity God’s pupils to contract drastically.
Heaven Crushing Sect? He’s actually from the Heaven Crushing Sect?!
The Heaven Crushing Sect has this many supremely talented freaks?!
“Isn’t Demon Emperor Si Yu the First Heavenly Disciple Attendant?” the Heavenly Depravity God asked solemnly. “Since when was there a Night Monarch?”
“Who told you that a Heavenly Disciple could only have one attendant?” the Night Monarch chuckled.
The Heavenly Depravity God was rendered speechless by his rebuttal.
A formless and uncanny fluctuation started to radiate from his body. Like a raging torrent, a black mist suddenly erupted from his body and furiously proliferated into the surroundings. The underground rock formations within a radius of several hundred kilometers started to become sand at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. Meanwhile, the nearby sinister devils all began to flee from the dark shadow in alarm.
The Night Monarch shifted his feet slightly as he gazed at the billowing mists. Then, like a sturdy ice crystal, a sparkling and crystal clear Heaven Crushing Barrier materialized before his body and blocked out all of the swarming black mist.
“Very well… Night Monarch, was it? I’ll have you experience the deepest and most profound terror of this world…”
The Heavenly Depravity God grabbed at the void, and a golden, snake-like sword started to condense in his hand.
“Sword of Dimension Depravity!”
Rip!
His body moved like a shadow, and he flashed before the Night Monarch at an incredible speed. Then, he slashed down with his sword! The twisted golden sword slashed into the Heaven Crushing Barrier. As if coming into contact with some peculiar power, the Heaven Crushing Barrier started to rapidly distort and flatten. In the end, it was ripped apart like a piece of thin paper.
While the Heavenly Depravity God had been attacking the barrier, the Night Monarch had already shot back in retreat. At this moment, regardless of whether it was the void or rock wall, everything in the twisted golden sword’s path had become a flat surface of no thickness.
The Night Monarch’s pupils contracted drastically when he saw this.
It’s not energy, nor is it spatial power… What on earth is this power?
Whoosh!
The twisted golden sword pierced over again.
The Night Monarch grabbed toward the void, and a black sword materialized in his hand. “Heaven Crushing Dark Sword!”
A pure and powerful Heaven Crushing True Intent exploded toward the Heavenly God before him. As the sword cut through the void, the might that was contained within the blade even obliterated the rock walls in the surrounding hundreds of kilometers.
This sword strike was immensely powerful, yet when it collided with the Sword of Dimension Depravity, there was only an eerie silence.
The Night Monarch could only see his black sword decaying and dropping in the dimension at a rate that was visible to the naked eye. It was as if his sword no longer belonged to this world…
A golden light flashed by.
The Heaven Crushing Dark Sword shattered into two parts.
Along with the sword, one of the Night Monarch’s arms was also sliced off.
The Night Monarch wore a terrified expression as he frantically scrambled back in retreat.
He found that his arm had directly become a flat, two-dimensional surface after being sliced off.
This power can even ignore energy? This is breaking the rules way too much!
Fortunately, however, the burst of Heaven Crushing True Intent was still able to penetrate through the twisted golden sword and slam into the Heavenly Depravity God’s body, ripping a wound into his chest.
“The Heaven Crushing Power created by Cyril and Chen Chen is indeed powerful…” The Night Monarch instantly understood how to fight against the Heavenly Depravity God upon witnessing this sight.
Should I use that technique?
It’s highly likely that this battle will be decided if I use that technique.
However, if I use that technique…
My body won’t be able to withstand it…
The Night Monarch’s expression gradually became resolute as he looked at the dazed sinister devils as well as the terrified and anxious gazes in the darkness behind him.
His aim of helping the sinister devils revert back to their original forms still wasn’t complete yet. These sinister devils were all transformed from humans, and he definitely couldn’t allow them to become tools for the Heavenly God!
The Heavenly Depravity God continued to lunge over with his Sword of Dimension Depravity. However, the Night Monarch’s expression had already become extremely calm. He made a grabbing motion toward the void of the abyss. “Come hither, sword!
“Heaven Crushing Technique…
“Sword of the Heavenly Dao!”
Boom!
A tremendously dazzling golden light suddenly soared into the sky in the profoundly dark abyss. This light was even more piercing and eye-catching than the sun. It seemed as if it were the only light, and it seemed as if it could pierce through all matter!
A piercing golden light suddenly burst from the gigantic abyss that stretched between the Kingdom of the Nine States and the Ant Tribe’s Realm of White Sand. It pierced into the sky with an overwhelming heaven crushing might and a boundless sword intent. It was unclear where it had originated from, and it was unclear where it would eventually reach.
When the golden sword projection slashed down, the entire abyss became a boundless sea of golden light.
A barely discernible wail traveled out from the abyss, yet it was instantly muted and engulfed.
…
Eastern Heavenly Gate.
The holy and majestic female who was silently standing in the sea of light suddenly opened her eyes. A look of disbelief washed over her face. “Depravity… actually died?”
…
Land of Eternal Light.
Cyril also opened his crimson eyes. He looked toward the south with a complicated expression, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad. “Night Monarch was actually forced to such an extent… Which Heavenly God did he kill?”
At this moment, a linen-garbed youth had already stepped forward and was just about to leave the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.
“Chen Chen! Stop! If you head over, we’ll definitely face a deadly situation here!” Cyril scolded loudly.
Chen Chen faltered mid-step. He clenched his fists, yet in the end, he didn’t take another step.
…
At this moment, in the Abyss of Evil.
The golden light had already dissipated.
At some unknown depth in the abyss, the Night Monarch was half-kneeling on the floor and continuously coughing blood.
After catching his breath, he hurriedly fused into the darkness. In the next instant, he arrived on a vast plaza. There were over two million sinister devils silently standing on this plaza.
“Master Night Monarch!”
“Master Night Monarch has come!”
Unexpectedly, the sinister devils started to talk to one another.
Looking closely, one could see that these sinister devils were already free from their twisted and frenzied appearances. They were still pitch-black, yet they no longer possessed explosive auras of boundless negative emotions.
The Night Monarch wore a pained expression as he looked at the sinister devils before him.
I was only a small step away, just one small step away…
“I’m about to transfer all of you to a mystic realm. Remember, don’t wander around, and continue to practice the mantra that I taught you…”
He waved his arms through the void and tore a gigantic circular spatial tunnel into it.
The sinister devils didn’t raise any questions, and all of them obediently swarmed into the spatial tunnel.
The Night Monarch was their supreme leader, and they all held a firm conviction that he wouldn’t harm them. Thus, they all entered the spatial tunnel without any hesitation.
The Night Monarch breathed a sigh of relief when he saw all of the sinister devils disappear into the spatial tunnel.
The abyss reverted back to a dark silence.
A disconsolate sigh echoed through the deathly silent surroundings.
“Such a shame… I won’t be able to witness their human forms…”
…
In the sky above.
A boundless pure white light beamed down.
The abyss once again became a boundless sea of light.
This time, the penetration of the light was more thorough and more terrifying.
Every corner, space, creature, and matter was illuminated by the brilliant white light.
An incredibly beautiful female who possessed an aura of infinite hope appeared before the Night Monarch.
“You, return to the embrace of light,” the female said softly.
“Heh…” The Night Monarch chuckled scornfully. “Hope? Light? It’s all bullsh*t!”
A vast darkness surged from the Night Monarch’s body, and as if he wanted to envelop all the light before him, the power of his Tian Ming Dao Physique was pushed to the extreme. He raised his sharp black sword and stabbed toward the female before him.
The female gracefully tapped a finger into the void.
The darkness that appeared as if it were going to obliterate and engulf everything a moment ago instantly vanished into nothingness.
…
In the southern region of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth started to wail in anguish.
It was clearly daytime, yet the curtain of night suddenly descended.
A sense of boundless grief welled up in the hearts of all living beings.
Following the death of a Dao Integration Stage cultivator, heaven and earth also started to wail in mourning!
