Chapter 523: The Great Calamity of Extinction? The True Identities of Tian Sha and Di Ying

Boom!

Beyond the Tai Cang realm, the Wu Mo realm, which was already close by, began to move slowly, inching closer and closer to the Tai Cang realm.

And the speed of its approach was increasing. Soon, it resembled a falling boulder, hurtling towards the Tai Cang realm.

Boom!

The unchanging energy and violent spiritual energy of the Bu Hua realm emitted a thunderous roar, stirring up a storm that swept across the land.

The sound of the impact reverberated through the Bu Hua realm, and the storm shook the surroundings.

The Ming Yu realm, which had already been constantly crumbling and shrinking, with its laws continuously being absorbed and its red glow fading, suddenly revealed several figures. They all stared at the direction of the Tai Cang realm in shock.

"What's happening?"

The Wu Mo realm was about to crash into the Tai Cang realm. Once it did, it would undoubtedly unleash a great calamity, and the structure of the Tai Cang realm would undergo tremendous changes.

The measures left by Tai Cang would likely be wiped out in this collision.

Of course, the damaged Wu Mo realm was not powerful enough to destroy the Tai Cang realm, but it was highly possible that it would inflict severe damage.

It might even create a massive flaw in the laws, requiring a long time to recover.

"Have Mei Wu and the others gone insane?" Lord Ming Xue asked in astonishment. "Could it be that in their desperation, Tai Cang did not agree to their demands, so they want to perish together?"

"Something's not right," Lord Yu Xue added gravely. "Even if Mei Wu wanted to do this, they wouldn't be able to. It seems there's a problem within the Tai Cang realm. Aside from the Wu Mo realm moving on its own, there's also a pulling force from the Tai Cang realm, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."

A sudden turn of events had caught them off guard.

With this collision, how could the Tai Cang realm withstand the invasion of the Bu Hua Shrine? How could it resist the invasion of the Lord of the Realm?

Boom!

The figure of Ming Yu appeared, gazing at the Tai Cang realm with a slightly furrowed brow.

From this distant vantage point, within the hazy Bu Hua realm, a gorgeous treasure pearl hung quietly.

At this moment, a damaged, black-red stone with a touch of variegated colors seemed to be crashing into the gorgeous treasure pearl.

It appeared that in the next moment, this exquisite treasure pearl would be damaged and cracked by the collision with the small stone.

Although the small stone was only about a third the size of the gorgeous treasure pearl, this impact was enough to cause considerable damage.

Ming Yu frowned, watching quietly, a complex expression flashing in his eyes. The figure of that majestic being appeared in his mind.

Would the traces of that person be erased at last?

He then turned to look at a certain place in the hazy Bu Hua realm, where a shrine was slowly approaching.

He wondered if the one within that shrine had become even stronger.

…

"Ancestor Dao Zu!"

Old Man Xiao was shocked. Tian Sha had gone completely insane to let the Wu Mo realm crash into the Tai Cang realm, an act that would lead to unimaginable consequences.

At this moment, it was too late to stop it.

Even if they killed Tian Sha and Mei Wu, they couldn't prevent the collision. Only Ancestor Dao Zu could avert this disaster.

Li Xuan looked up at the sky, still nonchalant. "Just watch," he said calmly.

Hearing this, Old Man Xiao felt relieved. Everything was under Ancestor Dao Zu's control, and he only needed to observe.

Everyone looked up, their gazes fixed on the sky above the Tai Cang realm. A huge shadow was approaching, and as it drew nearer, they felt a terrifying oppressive force.

They witnessed the storm that was sweeping up beyond the heavens!

In the Divine Realm, warriors at the Condensation Stage and above were all stunned, their eyes fixed on the sky. Although they couldn't see clearly and didn't understand what was happening, they felt the terror of the impending crisis.

The Immortal Beings were all shaken to their core.

"A calamity of the heavens, a great extinction?"

At this moment, all the Immortal Beings trembled, their hearts filled with uncontrollable fear.

In the Dao Realm.

Jiang Feng and Cang Lie appeared, instantly arriving beside Tai Miao.

"Master Tai Miao, what is this?"

Witnessing the scene beyond the heavens, the two were dumbfounded. Had Tian Sha gone mad to plot something like this?

Wasn't he supposed to become the Lord of the Realm? How could he achieve that if the Tai Cang realm was damaged? They could never have anticipated such a crisis.

"Where's your master? Is he dead?" Tai Miao asked, furrowing her delicate brows as she gazed beyond the heavens.

"Not yet!"

Jiang Feng and Cang Lie shook their heads.

"Figure something out to avoid getting affected. This time, the damage to the realm will definitely be significant, and your plans may need to be accelerated."

Tai Miao spoke calmly.

Upon further thought, it made sense. Tai Miao and their master were from the same era and had followed the venerable Tai Cang back then, so it was only natural that they were acquainted.

In the Dao Realm, the Supreme Beings and the Divine Beings were trying to find a way to avoid this calamity, while warriors below the Condensation Stage were fleeing towards the Divine Realm, their faces pale with fear.

The collision of the Wu Mo Realm would undoubtedly affect the Dao Realm first and foremost.

In the Bu Hua Realm...

Tian Zi looked up at the sky, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "My time has come...no, it's the time for the Heavenly Dao! I, Tian Zi, shall take the stage!"

To ensure that this collision didn't affect Blood Demon's plans, Tian Zi used the power of the Heavenly Dao to strengthen the illusions around Blood Demon, shielding him from perceiving the true situation outside.

With a swift movement, Tian Zi arrived at the border between the Spirit Realm and the Divine Realm.

The rules of the Heavenly Dao were in motion, and Tian Zi quietly awaited Tian Sha's next move. Since Tian Sha dared to take such a bold action, he must have had some assurance that the Tai Cang Realm would not be irreparably damaged.

As for the countless casualties, that was beyond Tian Sha's concern. In his eyes, sacrificing some weaklings was a small price to pay for becoming the Lord of the Realm.

Such were Tian Sha's thoughts.

However, Tian Zi, as the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao and the spirit of the heavens and earth, would naturally not allow such a thing to happen. So he bided his time, waiting for the opportunity to strengthen the Tai Cang Realm and have the Heavenly Dao encompass all creation.

Boom!

The Wu Mo Realm drew closer to the Tai Cang Realm, and from a distance in the Bu Hua Realm, the gorgeous treasure pearl that was the Tai Cang Realm began to stir.

Simultaneously, a radiant light shrouded it.

The Dao Laws of the Tai Cang Realm were triggered, forming a barrier to resist the impending collision with the Wu Mo Realm.

The seven Mei Wu members felt their scalps tingle, and as they calmed down, a hint of regret crept into their hearts. They had acted too impulsively.

To think they were going along with Tian Sha's madness!

However, when they thought of the mysterious and terrifying existence in that small courtyard, they felt they had no other choice. Only by doing this did they have a glimmer of hope.

"Tian Sha, this won't hurt our target!" Mei Wu said in a low voice.

Tian Sha's eyes blazed with insanity, but his expression remained calm and composed as he gazed silently into the distance, saying nothing.

Boom!

In an instant, the barrier between the Dao Realm and the Divine Realm collapsed, and the Dao Laws surged, gathering outside the heavens in an attempt to stop the Wu Mo Realm's collision.

Boom!

The heavens and earth were undergoing a transformation.

"Tai Cang has recovered!"

Mei Wu's expression turned dazed.

Back in the ancient times, she had often visited the Tai Cang Realm, enchanting countless elites of the Tai Cang Realm. She was very familiar with the Tai Cang Realm as it was back then.

The heavens and earth had become one!

The Tai Cang Realm was no longer separated into different regions. It had returned to its ancient state, and the Dao Realm would once again be located in the central landmass of the Tai Cang Realm, the land of its origin.

The three hundred realms of the Dao Realm were all in a state of flux, their respective Dao Laws surging out and being drawn into the Dao Laws of the Tai Cang Realm.

Chaos reigned in the Dao Realm and the Divine Realm. Even warriors below the Condensation Stage looked up at the sky, and they could see a massive shadow crashing into the heavens and earth.

It was an apocalypse!

However, everyone overlooked the fact that the Spirit Realm and the Inner Realm remained unusually calm, unaffected by the impending doom. The warriors in these two realms couldn't sense the approaching apocalypse at all.

"It's about time," Tian Sha muttered to himself.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a figure appeared out of thin air, like a cloud merging seamlessly with the heavens and earth, silent and invisible.

"It's Di Ying!"

Some of the Realm Lords turned pale with shock.

"Isn't Di Ying dead? How is he still alive?"

"Tian Sha and Di Ying have been working together in secret!"

The hearts of the Realm Lords sank as they realized how deeply Tian Sha had hidden his schemes. They felt a deep sense of dread toward him.

Even the Realm Lords who had sided with Tian Sha were surprised. They had no idea that Di Ying was still alive!

"Di Ying was the one who ambushed me back then!" Yu Yao said coldly.

Xiao Lao scratched his head, deep in thought. "There's something different about Di Ying, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

Li Xuan glanced at Xiao Lao with a hint of surprise. Indeed, as the foremost of the Seven Prodigies of Tai Cang and the foremost figure of the second generation of Tai Cang elites, Xiao Lao was no ordinary person.

Although he couldn't pinpoint what was different about Di Ying, he had sensed that something was amiss.

Huan Yan fixed his eyes on Di Ying, his brows furrowed in thought.

"Master, is Di Ying the same person as Tian Sha?" Huan Yan asked after a moment's thought.

Xiao Lao and Yu Yao were both taken aback. How could Tian Sha and Di Ying be the same person?

Old Man Xiao was taken aback. He couldn't believe that Tian Sha had earned such high praise from Ancestor Dao Zu.

"Ancestor, what about Di Ying?" Old Man Xiao asked, puzzled.

"The heavens and earth have yin and yang, and the combination of yin and yang creates all things. The same is true for humans—male is yang, female is yin; male is yang, and female is yin. This is the most fundamental understanding of yin and yang," Li Xuan explained.

"Tian Sha is yang, and Di Ying is yin. They are both the same and different. They have distinct thoughts and consciousness, cultivate different techniques, and possess unique abilities. However, Tian Sha is the dominant one, and Di Ying is subordinate. Simply put, Tian Sha has two personalities, but his primary personality is the true leader, and he is aware of his condition.

"Therefore, after reaching a certain level of strength, he separated one of his personalities and made it inhabit Di Ying's original soul and body, slowly consuming and replacing the original Di Ying..." Li Xuan smiled as he clarified.

In his heart, he admired Tian Sha's boldness. Tian Sha once had a dual personality and was adventurous and daring enough to explore and attempt separating his weaker personality through some method.

This separated personality lived as Di Ying, cultivated as Di Ying, but was still under the control of Tian Sha's primary personality. In a sense, Di Ying was also an independent entity.

Tian Sha and Di Ying were once one, but now they exist as if they are yin and yang—both independent and unified.

Old Man Xiao and the others were stunned, gazing at Tian Sha and Di Ying with disbelief. They couldn't fathom that the two were once one entity.

Di Ying was a separate personality that had been split from Tian Sha!

In that instant, Old Man Xiao felt a sense of admiration for Tian Sha. No wonder Ancestor Dao Zu had said that Tian Sha was more imaginative and innovative than him.

Old Man Xiao asked himself if he had a dual personality; he would have gone insane or met with an unexpected demise during a breakthrough due to a conflict of personalities.

Tian Sha had separated another personality and allowed it to live and cultivate as another person, even reaching the Realm Lord stage! His talent was indeed terrifying, and it was no wonder that Tian Sha dared to scheme for dominion over the heavens and earth, aspiring to become the ruler of all.

"Perhaps he also feels that he was born in the wrong era," Old Man Xiao thought to himself.

A genius like Tian Sha, with his spirit of exploration, would have been more appreciated by Teacher Tai Cang.

Alas, he had missed the best of times.

"Ancestor, when did Tian Sha separate his other personality?" Old Man Xiao asked curiously.

"During the Refinement of the Spirit stage," Li Xuan smiled and replied.

So, Tian Sha had killed the real Di Ying and replaced him with his other personality during the Refinement of the Spirit stage. What a cunning move!

"This Tian Sha is truly remarkable," Xu Yan exclaimed, unable to hide his admiration.

Li Xuan chuckled. As talented as Tian Sha was, he couldn't compare to his excellent disciple.

After all, his disciple had managed to cultivate using techniques that Li Xuan had made up on the spot! Now that was a true monster!

The Wu Mo realm was about to collide with the Tai Cang realm, and at that moment, Tian Sha held a purple pearl in his hand.

A wisp of purple light emanated from the pearl, enveloping both him and Di Ying. Suddenly, a figure emerged from Tian Sha's body.

This figure seemed somewhat illusory and unreal, yet it was undoubtedly Tian Sha. It had walked out of Tian Sha's body.

This figure was not a soul, but rather, it seemed to be a phantom body refined through some unknown secret technique.

"A yin body?" Old Man Xiao muttered, recalling Ancestor Dao Zu's mention of yin and yang.

"That's not entirely wrong," Li Xuan smiled.

The yin body that had emerged from Tian Sha instantly merged into Di Ying's body.

"What is the treasure in Tian Sha's hand?" Yu Yao furrowed her brows, looking grave.

"It's the Tianzi Pearl!" Old Man Xiao sighed, remembering the mischievous, curious, and playful youth who had once been by Teacher Tai Cang's side.

"The Tianzi Pearl? How did Tian Sha get his hands on it?" Yu Yao exclaimed in shock.

"Didn't Tianzi die?" Old Man Xiao asked, to which Li Xuan smiled and replied, "No, but as far as I know, Teacher Tai Cang sealed him away."

He glanced at the Tianzi Pearl in Tian Sha's hand and added, "Perhaps Tianzi lost the pearl somewhere, and Tian Sha happened to obtain it. What a fortunate opportunity for him!"
