Chapter 254 Three Swords Slay the Primordial Chaos, A New Ferryman?
The sword energy was like a torrent, seemingly falling from the heavens, and in an instant, it cleared away all the corpses!
However, Zhao Gongming did not stop. On the contrary, his aura became even stronger, the river of swords roared and surged, and the thirty-six heavens unfolded behind him, continuously adding power to Hunyuan Qiushui.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
As countless corpses were slain, all the resentment finally converged and transformed into three colossal corpses that blotted out the sky, each exuding the aura of a Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal!
The scene was absolutely breathtaking.
Three enormous figures, blotting out the sky, almost burst open the ship of the other shore. The auras of the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortals were intertwined, like the wheel of doomsday pressing down. Just standing there was enough to make one breathless.
"The good news is that they are just three corpses with cultivation but no substance."
"The bad news is that they are all Primordial Limitless Golden Immortals."
Zhao Gongming made a joke to himself, showing no sign of tension.
This is the confidence that comes with a top-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure. At this level of Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal, he doesn't feel much danger at all!
Boom!
Three hideous corpses flashed and instantly teleported in front of Zhao Gongming. Their empty eyes seemed to be able to capture souls and absorb people's will. Their original essence was incomplete, but they still maintained their original appearance, and their bodies exuded an extremely strong resentment.
One of them opened its mouth and exhaled a wisp of foul, oppressive energy that slowly drifted out, spreading throughout the space. Yet, like a ravenous beast, it devoured the air and grew wildly, quickly forming a large mass of gloom.
The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth then manifested in the gloom, but they were rotten metal, decaying wood, stagnant water, karmic fire, and polluted earth.
The second skeletal hand descended, its palm crackling with eerie runes of lightning that twisted and rolled in the air, mingled with rotting resentment, like giant dragons breaking through the sky and then plunging into the earth, tearing at Zhao Gongming.
The third creature's enormous body transformed into a large cloud of black mist, from which shrill screams echoed continuously, coalescing into a terrifying sound wave. An ordinary Primordial Golden Immortal's primordial spirit would probably explode within this sound wave in an instant!
"The Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth".
The small pagoda above Zhao Gongming's head spun rapidly, cascading down endless Xuanhuang Qi. In an instant, the corrupting power of the Five Elements, eerie lightning, and sound waves crashed into the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, producing a deafening roar.
Although this attack method was extremely simple, it was still an attack launched by three Hunyuan Wuji Golden Immortals. If Zhao Gongming's physical body were here, he could still neutralize it with the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, but now he was only a three-foot primordial spirit. For a moment, he felt his head tremble and his ears were ringing.
However, this did not prevent him from activating the Hunyuan Autumn Water.
"Zheng—"
With a resounding sword cry, the Primordial Autumn Water, empowered by the Great Dao of Time, the Great Dao of Sword, the Three Thousand Laws, the Thirty-Six Heavens, and other boundless powers, slashed down at the corpse!
The first sword!
A cold light slashed downwards, seemingly splitting the space of the Other Shore Ship in two. The corpse that had been driving the decaying five elements burst forth with a dazzling blood-red light under the sword light, before exploding into a rain of blood and thick resentment!
The second sword!
Immediately following, the corpse that had unleashed the lightning also exploded!
The third sword!
The corpses hidden in the black mist were pierced by countless sword beams. Moments later, the black mist dissipated, and everything returned to tranquility, as if water had left no trace.
Three swords slay the primordial chaos!
If anyone else saw this achievement, they would definitely think they were dreaming.
Although these corpses are several levels below true Primordial Chaos Golden Immortals, their cultivation level is undeniably high.
With his primordial spirit at the second level of the Hunyuan realm, Zhao Gongming slew three beings at the fifth level of the Hunyuan realm with three sword strikes, a feat never before accomplished since the beginning of time.
Of course, this is also largely due to his trump cards: the Great Dao of Time, the Great Dao of Sword, the Thirty-Six Heavens, and a high-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure. Any one of these would be enough to make one stand out in the Primordial Chaos Realm.
At this moment, after the corpses of the three Primordial Limitless Golden Immortals were severed, no more resentment continued to gather, indicating that these resentments were not endless.
As the resentment dissipated and the crimson color faded, the interior space of the ship became slightly clearer, and Zhao Gongming immediately spotted a purple dot of light.
Clearly, this is a wisp of divine consciousness left behind here by the owner of the ship from the other shore.
Just as Zhao Gongming was about to activate the Autumn Water Sword to erase this divine consciousness.
"Buzz—"
The purple light spot actually started moving on its own. In an instant, it ignored the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda and flew directly into Zhao Gongming's body.
"not good!"
Zhao Gongming was shocked. He knew that he was in his primordial spirit state at this moment. This purple light spot could ignore the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda and directly invade his primordial spirit. It was simply impossible to defend against!
But before he could force out this wisp of divine consciousness, his awareness was trapped in another space.
Here was a vast, chaotic expanse, where the sky was invisible and the ground was impassable. Zhao Gongming floated in mid-air like a soul, unsure of where to go.
"The universe is vast, and the cycle of reincarnation is endless."
"You have quelled the resentment here, greatly diminishing the power of my ferry to the other shore. Stay here as a ferryman to atone for your sins."
Just then, an extremely ancient voice suddenly rang in his ears, as if it came from the source of time and had gone through countless reincarnations.
Immediately afterwards, a picture appeared before his eyes.
This is a mayfly, floating in a calm lake. Eventually, a small fish swims over, flicks its tail, and the mayfly's body bursts open.
"So, you've already gone through one lifetime of reincarnation. In your first life, you were a mayfly. How could a mayfly possibly support a boat? No, no, that won't do."
The ancient voice spoke calmly, and the next moment, a new scene appeared.
In the scene, a bamboo stalk is rooted there, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, but unfortunately it is eventually cut down, and its hundred years of cultivation is reduced to nothing.
"Oh? You have a second life?"
"It's a pity that fate played a trick on you, otherwise you might have been able to take human form in your second life."
A hint of surprise finally crept into the ancient voice.
Then, a third scene appeared.
A demon was wreaking havoc, but was eventually killed by a united force of righteous people.
The fourth scene depicts a mortal emperor commanding all living beings, with the world submitting to his rule.
In the fifth scene, a cultivator, by sheer luck, consumes an elixir of immortality and lives a carefree life for ten thousand years, but ultimately cannot withstand the passage of time and turns into a handful of dust.
The sixth scene shows a stubborn rock standing on the shore, unmoved by the wind. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that behind the rock is a bird's nest.
In the seventh scene, an official goes to provide disaster relief and not only throws sand into the pots where the disaster victims are eating, but also gives them bran to eat when food is scarce.
In the eighth scene, a butcher, after killing ten thousand people, suddenly puts down his knife. Although he had killed many people before, by putting down the knife, he saves even more people.
........................
One scene after another disappears, and another unfolds.
Each one tells a story, and each one goes through a cycle!
