Chapter 1474: The Outcome Has Never Changed, And The Progress Is Unstoppable!
Translator:Sparrow Translations Editor:Sparrow Translations
The Tai Yi Holy Man and the others could only sigh as they watched Lin Feng use the Two Elements Origins-Returning Mystic World Spell.
Lin Feng slashed open the Greater World with his sword, and now he was repairing it – such might was truly astounding.
The Great Void Holy Man watched this scene calmly as he pointed at the Supreme Heavenly Mirror. Mystical mirror lights extended in all directions and descended into the Greater World. The mirror"s lights s.h.i.+ned upon the world, and the cracks in the colossal world began to heal at greater speed.
Shakyamuni placed his palms together, and boundless light permeated heaven and earth and transformed into rain as it drifted down onto the human world.
If the crack had been complete like the ending years of the Primordial Age, more effort would probably have been required, the crack was still unstable at this moment. Lin Feng, the Great Void Holy Man, and Shakyamuni used their powers to stabilize it and time seemed to flow backwards as the cracks across the world started to close up.
However, many strange and uncanny phenomena were occurring in the borders of heaven and earth. Virtual gates opened up in the heavens, and one could see the Spirit Sea and the Death Sea"s torrential waves through these gates. The sight was immensely terrifying.
Lin Feng smiled. His original body was sitting motionless on Mount Yujing, while his Thunder Dragon Avatar, his Avatar of Ares, and this Nine Qi Avatar were all sitting on the Origin Golden Cup and under the Sky-s.h.i.+elding Umbrella inside the Spirit Sea.
Curtains seemed to be falling over this epic battle. The Heaven-Destroying Sword hovered high above the heavens, while the tumultuous waves in the Death Sea and the Spirit Sea were finally starting to settle down.
Lin Feng himself, the Great Void Holy Man and the others could faintly feel that that there were various consciousnesses coming from the Death Sea and the Spirit Sea.
The Spirit Sea was fearful, but the Death Sea was a lot more sophisticated and more thought-provoking.
Even though their wills were different, the ent.i.ty they were focused on was the same, and that was the Heaven-Destroying Sword hovering high above in the Chaos.
The Great Void Holy Man and Shakyamuni glanced at the Death Sea, and saw that the Death Sea"s crack was starting to close up.
Shen Yuan was just sent to his doom, but he could possibly return after countless years.
The Hades Emperor met his demise over four thousand years ago. The Hades Emperor was ranked with Emperor Jue and the Emperor of Extremity as the three most powerful demons in the history of the Grand Celestial World, and if n.o.body was in the Death Sea to suppress him, he was bound to return earlier than Shen Yuan.
However, after they witnessed Lin Feng"s sword, the Greater World would no longer be the same as when the Hades Emperor reigned supreme over the world even if he did return at some point.
The Spirit Sea was gradually returning to peace and tranquility. The water inside the enormous golden lake was declining, and streaks of light extended outwards as they connected to the Origin Golden Cup once more.
Beams of light surged over the Spirit Sea and waltzed through void s.p.a.ce, and permeated spiritual energy in all directions.
Everybody grew silent as they watched on. After everything that had just happened, Lin Feng could still restart the process of a.s.similating the Spirit Sea.
The Tai Yi Holy Man, the Zheng Yi Holy Man, the Xuan Yi Holy Man exchanged looks with each other, and everyone shook their heads, but n.o.body spoke to each other.
Lin Feng used the most terrifying one of the Grand Celestial Seven Seas, the Death Sea, to fix the Spirit Sea in place. Both forces were opposites, yet they achieved an equilibrium so that the Spirit Sea wouldn"t close because of the epic battle that had just transpired. Lin Feng was continuing on his a.s.similation process of the Spirit Sea by himself.
The Great Void Sect had predicted this in their plan, but they had hoped for the best outcome, and that was their ancestor would come back to a.s.similate the Spirit Sea.
Lin Feng"s current behavior meant that he had the same idea before this, so now he was executing his plan smoothly.
This made the Tai Yi Holy Man and the others speechless.
Lin Feng and the Celestial Sect of Wonders were most likely to a.s.similate and control the Spirit Sea if they didn"t break open the path to the Death Sea. However, the path to the Death Sea was opened anyway, and the series of occurrences that followed after – the Great Void Holy Man, Shakyamuni, Xuan Shang, Shen Yuan all came back to life – and the final outcome was no different from what it was meant to be at the start.
The Spirit Sea would ultimately belong to the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
Even though Lin Feng"s Bell of Destiny, his Heaven-Destroying Sword Formation, the Taiji Celestial Star Formation, and the Celestial Heavenly Array were all inside the Greater World to lock Xuan Shang away inside the Black Sea, n.o.body would be able to stop him a.s.similating the Spirit Sea as long as he was here and Xuan Li was still here.
Even if the Great Void Holy Man with the Supreme Heavenly Mirror ad Shakyamuni teamed up, nothing would be different.
Shen Yuan paid with his life, and Xuan Shang escaped into the distance, and this outcome was enough to prove this point.
The Tai Yi Holy Man, the Zheng Yi Holy Man, and the Xuan Yi Holy Man could only laugh bitterly inside.
Opening the path to the Death Sea couldn"t change the outcome of Lin Feng a.s.similating the Spirit Sea. Furthermore, this allowed Lin Feng to enhance the Heaven-Destroying Sword for the third time, and this fearsome sword was now at a higher level than before. It reigned supreme over the powerful individualsof the Grand Celestial World, its ferocity was unmatched, and it was simply unrivalled.
Lin Feng didn"t return to the Spirit Sea after he fixed the cracks in the world. He sat on top of Mount Yujing, and he just calmly hovered in the Chaos above the heavens with a faint smile on his face.
His gaze entered the Spirit Sea, and he surveyed the region and identified two figures.
These two figures were locked in furious battle. Both parties stirred up torrential waves inside the Spirit Sea, and it was Yue Hongyan against the Sirius Grand Sage.
This b.l.o.o.d.y battle ended with Yue Hongyan successfully putting the Sirius Grand Sage into the ground. She used the Saros Steel Tree to protect herself from the Sirius Grand Sage"s final lunge before he pa.s.sed into the void.
Her flowing red hair swayed in the region within the Spirit Sea, and they were brilliant like streaks of flame.
On the other side, Zhu Yi managed to alleviate the threat of the Nether Plague Divine Light, and he defeated the current sect leader of the Great Void Sect, Lin Daohan. Even though they weren"t battling to the death, their fight was equally epic.
However, the battle that caused the Spirit Sea to turn on itself multiple times over was another battle.
The Greater World had been shaken. The Spirit Sea was originally unstable, and its borders were almost torn apart, but the tides were finally settling down at this moment.
Outside the Spirit Sea and in the Chaos, Shakyamuni extended his palm, and a small and nimble flower appeared in the center of his palm before it wilted.
Shakyamuni glanced at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng"s expression remained unchanged as he sat on Mount Yujing. He seemed to be placing himself between the Buddha and the Spirit Sea.
The wilting flower became dust and was blown away by the wind. Shakyamuni shook his head and closed his eyes.
At this moment, a streak of light surged out from the Spirit Sea and into the Chaos.
The beam of light stopped abruptly and revealed the Monkey. His demonic powers were a little diminished, but his eyes sparkled and were full of life as he surveyed the void s.p.a.ce around him.
Lin Feng laughed and said, "The Emperor of Extremity came back, but I"ve sent him away."
The Monkey grinded his teeth and replied, "Forget it. Leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, your abilities are too powerful, and I can"t stop you from a.s.similating the Spirit Sea. If you don"t hold me back, I"ll be gone from here."
"My journey into the Spirit Sea isn"t fruitless after all."
He laughed heartily before he swung the divine steel rod in his hands, and the frightening power seemed to flow from its tips.
This steel rod had just slayed a powerful demon in the Vipralopa stage!
It was impossible to activate the Power-Destroying Catastrophe inside the Spirit Sea. The Golden Cicada Master was unable to rely on the arrangements that he had made earlier to escape. He wanted to eescape from the Spirit Sea through the crack in the world, but Monkey was vigilant and prevented the Golden Cicada Master from doing this from the beginning to the end. The Golden Cicada Master"s escaping techniques and vanis.h.i.+ng spells were inferior to the Monkey, so he was eventually locked in by the Monkey.
The Golden Cicada Master was adept with Buddhism and the notion of Karma. He calculated that it was a perilous journey into the Spirit Sea, but he could meet great fortune amidst all the danger.
When he first watched Lin Feng sweep the other powerful individuals inside the Spirit Sea, h e knew that his chance for "great fortune" had disappeared into nothingness.
The Golden Cicada Master couldn"t do anything about this, and not even the Buddha himself can predict or calculate anything regarding Lin Feng.
By that point, his ending was almost fixed.
These powerful demons had been around since the Antiquity Age, and they had roamed the world for so many years, yet they perished inside this great sea, and this proved that there was nothing in the world that couldn"t change, and that the vicissitudes of life were always unpredictable.
The other beings that could feel the vicissitudes of life were the Ancient Ape Demons who resided in the Lingyuan Mountains within the Barren Expanses.
The Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage was kneeling on the ground, and his eyes were slack as his jaw hung open. His blue eyes had completely lost his spark, and he seemed to have lost all vitality as his body was frozen like a statue.
His blue eyes had always been vivid and lively, but they were like extinguished flames at this point.
He was in the third-level undying demonic soul stage, and the time that he had spent on this world was uncountable.
Ever since Shen Yuan perished the first time around, the Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkeys had sustained heavy losses when the Hades Emperor first ascended to the throne all those years ago. The Heavenly Demon Apes eventually gained control over the Ancient Ape Demons and a.s.sumed leaders.h.i.+p, while the Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkeys were stranded in a strange and awkward position.
The Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage had grown up in such an environment.
He had been through a lot, and even though he could calmly face almost anything in normal days, there were only a few things that could truly shake him at his core.
This was the first time in his entire life that he had felt so dispirited and lost, and this episode continued for an extremely long time.
His own ancestor, and the most powerful being of his race, had returned to the Greater World. The Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkeys and the entire Ancient Ape Demons finally had some hope to return to their former glory and splendor.
However, this hope had been taken away from them the moment it appeared. It almost felt surreal, and it made the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage feel as if the entire world was starting to feel fake and unreal.
The Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage was as such, and the youngsters under his wing were even more lost and despondent. Everybody watched on in astonishment and speechlessness as they felt the Emperor of Extremity, Shen Yuan, being thrown back into the darkness by someone else.
Besides the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage and the Yue Cheng Grand Sage, even the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage and the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, who were both Vipralopa Stage demons, were in a daze.
The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage didn"t celebrate the fact that he could remain as tribe leader, and there was only astonishment in his heart – and perhaps even fear!
This was the Emperor of Extremity, one of the three most powerful demons that ever walked this earth. There used to be a time when Shen Yuan had ruled over the entire Greater World.
What kind of power was this, one that could send Shen Yuan to his demise once more so cleanly and without any ha.s.sle?
This was completely beyond the expectations and imagination of the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, and the others.
They were formidable demons in the Vipralopa Stage, and they recalled the feeling when the Savage Energy of heaven and earth surged forth, when the Greater World seemed to be destroyed along with Shen Yuan and all the terrifying phenomena. A shadow surfaced in their minds, a person that they had never directly encountered, but a person that had been heavily imprinted into their minds.
A purple-robed youth, slas.h.i.+ng down with his sword.
This image seemed to have been engraved into their souls, and they broke out in cold sweat just thinking about it.
