Chapter 631: All Things, Return to Nothingness
Chapter 631: All Things, Return to Nothingness
Jan 4th, 2025
Within the Dark Void, Qi Yuan gracefully extended his hand.
The Sword of Forgetfulness swung.
In an instant,
The rules within the Dark Void twisted and snapped.
Countless rays, lines, and colors were kneaded into a ball, like a mixture of paints.
An ancient blood-red longsword pierced through the Dark Void, and all the Cosmic Laws bowed beneath its might.
"I shall annihilate!"
Tu Feng Dao Shen roared, and the Cosmic Laws erupted. He sought a chance for survival in this battle.
This was his most powerful strike, effortlessly capable of annihilating a God Lord.
One could even say it was enough to wound a weak Daoist God's True Spirit.
However, his attack, his Cosmic Laws, were incredibly fragile when faced with that sword.
Or perhaps, it was not fragility, but rather, it simply could not block it.
It was as if his attack did not notice the sword, allowing the sword to effortlessly slice through.
The Sword of Forgetfulness!
It could make any rule in the world forget his existence.
Tu Feng Dao Shen's eyes widened in fury, and his True Spirit trembled, "How is this possible?"
He was perplexed and unwilling to accept this.
Even if Yang Six were here, he would have the courage to fight.
But now, how could he face Qi Yuan's sword?
"Forgetfulness is the true return to nothingness," Qi Yuan's calm and clear voice echoed.
Tu Feng Dao Shen's body stiffened, and his True Spirit froze at that moment.
All his memories, including the Cosmic Laws he had mastered, were annihilated in that instant.
His body shattered, his True Spirit extinguished, and Tu Feng Dao Shen's existence in this world was thoroughly erased.
Not far away, the Heavenly King Mountain Lord watched this scene, trembling, unable to shake off the shock in his eyes.
That was a Daoist God!
He was effortlessly slain without any resistance!
This Qi Yuan... Could it be that he has passed the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, or is he even stronger?
It's worth noting that even the one in the Abandoned Land would not find it easy to slay Tu Feng Dao Shen.
At this moment, Qi Yuan's gaze turned towards the Heavenly King Mountain Lord, "You were obedient, neither resisting nor fleeing."
How dare the Heavenly King Mountain Lord run?
When he saw Qi Yuan chasing after him, moving freely within the Dark Void as if it were his domain, he knew that Qi Yuan was invincible.
"This old man offers his life to you, Senior. If you deem me unworthy to be your subordinate, you may erase my spirit and consciousness." The Heavenly King Mountain Lord lowered his head, his attitude humble.
His intention was simple; he acknowledged Qi Yuan as his master.
If Qi Yuan wished to punish him, he could erase his consciousness and spirit.
Then, the reborn True Spirit would be a brand new being, completely loyal to Qi Yuan.
"Interesting." Qi Yuan glanced at the Heavenly King Mountain Lord, seeing through his entire existence.
This Heavenly King Mountain Lord's True Spirit had been extinguished at least a hundred times.
His consciousness, personality, and spirit had been replaced countless times.
His original personality was once a peerless genius, always striving to pass the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, and create an immortal True Spirit law.
Time and again, he underwent shallow trials of the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, his True Spirit extinguished, his personality and consciousness falling, only for a new personality to be born.
However, through all these trials, he had never once succeeded.
This showed just how difficult it was to pass the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations.
"Perfect, I need a stableboy." Qi Yuan waved his hand, and the newly born personality and consciousness of the Heavenly King Mountain Lord, in Qi Yuan's eyes, was not yet worthy of his devotion.
"Heavenly King Mountain is willing to serve as a humble servant!" The Mountain Lord hastily bowed.
His title was the Heavenly King Mountain Lord.
"Hmm." Qi Yuan nodded, then spoke, "Where is the Heavenly Deity now?"
Qi Yuan had several objectives in this game.
His first task was to protect the Land of Forgetfulness.
The second goal was to enter the Rebirth Realm.
The third objective was to step into the Radiant Sage Realm.
His final goal was to resolve the issue of Return to Nothingness.
These goals had overlapping trajectories.
Before resolving them, he needed to meet the Heavenly Deity and settle the grudge from the past.
After all, the Heavenly Deity was the incarnation of his third disciple's breath.
There was a long-standing grudge between them.
His third disciple had always worked tirelessly, fighting against Return to Nothingness without complaint.
Even when his third disciple gave up the chance to enter the Sixth Sun Realm, choosing a path with no future, he remained unwavering and continued to oppose Return to Nothingness.
However, his disciple's strength was relatively weak, and he perished in the Land of Nothingness, leaving behind only a breath and a vow.
His disciple's vow, towards his third master, held some resentment, and even hatred.
This obsession, too, takes upon itself the task of resolving the Void.
However, the means are violent and explosive.
In order to resolve the Void, the Divine Sovereign creates more Voids.
It can even be said that the Divine Sovereign establishes the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, intending to bring the Netherworld under his rule, using its inhabitants as substitutes for the Yang Plane's beings to endure three calamities and three tribulations.
"Divine Sovereign..." The Heavenly King Mountain Lord remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, "This old man does not know, but if the master were to go to the Nine Heavens Divine Palace... perhaps there would be a chance to meet him."
His meaning was clear.
If they were to forcefully break through, defeating the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, they might be able to meet the Divine Sovereign.
"We're going... to the Nine Heavens Divine Palace?" Qi Yuan took action without hesitation.
The Heavenly King Mountain Lord's face showed a look of difficulty.
"The Nine Heavens Divine Palace is headquartered in the extreme north of the Rebirth Plane, and the journey is long. Currently, the Ten Thousand Gods Mountain and the Soul-Breaking Bridge are at war, blocking the Dark Void. To reach the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, we'll need to borrow a path."
The Ten Thousand Gods Mountain and the Soul-Breaking Bridge are old rivals, and these two major powers often engage in battles.
In the 1619 version of the book, it's clear that this war is on a massive scale.
It can even be said that the strongest beings from both sides have taken action, displaying their might and severing the Dark Void.
Therefore, even a Daoist God cannot pass through this void, and they must borrow a path from the battlefield.
"Oh, that's a minor issue." Qi Yuan was unconcerned.
He is originally from the Ten Thousand Gods Mountain, and borrowing a path is simple.
...
"Void."
"Cycle."
"Forget."
"Reincarnation."
Inside the carriage, Qi Yuan lay lazily, a hint of worry between his brows.
Although he is different from San Sheng, cultivating the Netherworld and following the path of reincarnation gives him a significant advantage.
However, the path of reincarnation that Qi Yuan pursues is ultimately extraordinary.
After all, establishing the Netherworld and allowing the deceased to walk the path of reincarnation is something that any Dao Lord can achieve.
Qi Yuan's path of reincarnation, however, is to oppose the Netherworld, the Rebirth Plane, and all cultivators of the Yang Plane.
For example, the Heavenly Emperor is very powerful, isn't he?
The Heavenly Emperor has many means to effortlessly obliterate a person, erasing their true spirit.
Qi Yuan, on the other hand, wants to revive this person and have them walk out of reincarnation, which is, in fact... opposing the Heavenly Emperor's path.
Therefore, his path of reincarnation is akin to making enemies of the entire world.
"Not only making enemies of the entire world, but also... opposing the Descent Curse."
San Sheng, who suffered from the Descent Curse, constantly dissolves it... I'm afraid I might awaken my Primordial Illusory Holy Body."
In the Abandoned Land, Qi Yuan used the Sword of Forgetfulness to oppose the Descent Curse, and his body awakened a special quality, the Primordial Illusory Holy Body.
Illusory, as the name suggests, is an empty illusion.
Using the Sword of Forgetfulness repeatedly, one day Qi Yuan might cease to exist, leaving behind only a symbol, like Stillness.
"Heavenly King Mountain, if I were to forget the Void, would I be able to oppose it?" At this moment, Qi Yuan asked thoughtfully.
The Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra is a powerful ability and his innate divine ability.
If the Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra is used as a foundation to counter the Void... is there a chance to step into reincarnation?
All fallen beings forget the fact of their own death.
"Master, what you speak of is too lofty for this old man," the Heavenly King Mountain Lord said cautiously, "But forgetfulness... is indeed terrifying, and it... is also a form of the Void."
Many Daoist Gods, Dao Lords, and even those above the Yang Five often like to use the means of forgetfulness to thoroughly erase beings.
In all timelines, erasing all traces, even the memories of those who took action, are erased.
In this way, that being will completely cease to exist.
It's as if, in a feudal dynasty, someone tears out a page from the history books, and after a thousand years, who will remember the person initially recorded?
"You've reminded me that forgetfulness is also the Void." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed.
The Divine Sovereign is the Void.
The Heavenly King Mountain Lord is the Void.
The Heavenly Emperor is the Void.
He is also the Void.
His Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra is also the Void.
The Sword of Forgetfulness is also the Void.
How should this Void be dealt with?
