"Master and the rest have left. This time, they have probably left the Three Realms forever." Qin Yun felt mixed emotions.

From that moment forth, they would be taking different paths.

His master and company would kill Fiend Ancestor and probe the Chaos in search of ways to create a new world.

Qin Yun and the rest would stay behind in the Three Realms, managing and protecting it.

"Heavenly Lord." In Jade Void Palace, Yang Jian had also opened his third eye to look beyond the Three Realms.

"Buddhist Ancestor." Maitreya and Guan Yin watched from afar as well. Maitreya was now the leader of the Buddhists. The older generation such as Burning Lamp and Medicine Master focused on cultivation.

At that moment, the new generation of Daoist and Buddhist leaders were feeling a rush of emotions.

Killing the Fiend Ancestor was an important matter, but the Dao Ancestors and Buddhist Ancestor would be gone forever. That would lead to far reaching consequences and it was believed that soon, all the lurking old existences would appear one by one. When that happened, would they be as powerful as the Dao Ancestors and Buddhist Ancestor?

******

Outside the Three Realms, in the vast Chaos.

Since the seven Heavenly Dao realm figures had left the Three Realms, they threw it to the back of their minds. Whatever ensued there was now the problem of the younger generation.

"Whoosh."

Fiend Ancestor"s female body was dressed in white and she had purple long hair. She stepped through the void with her feet bare, tearing through immense spatial distances. In a blink of an eye, she had left the Three Realms far behind her.

"Black Lotus, you won"t escape." G.o.ddess Nüwa"s voice boomed around the Fiend Ancestor as the surrounding s.p.a.ce froze. It prevented the Fiend Ancestor"s female body from tunneling through s.p.a.ce-time. All she could do was fly normally.

She turned to the right with a change in expression and saw G.o.ddess Nüwa walking over.

G.o.ddess Nüwa had a tall body as she calmly looked at Fiend Ancestor. "Do you want to commit suicide, or let me do it?"

"The most ancient Heavenly Dao realm existence in the Three Realms," Fiend Ancestor sneered and said, "is dealing with the weakest of my avatars? From the looks of it, this avatar is doomed. But I, Black Lotus, aren"t in the habit of killing myself. You want to kill me? Let"s see if you have what it takes. Let me see… how powerful you are."

"Black Lotus, you once helmed the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss and absorbed the sins and corruption in the Three Realms. You should have made the Three Realms pure and tranquil and that would have been a meritorious deed," said Nüwa. "But what did you do? You spread sinful and corruptive Dharmic formulations across the Three Realms, inciting even more killing in the Three Realms. The foulness of the Three Realms was because of you. The number of lives lost to your evil is uncountable. In the Three Realms, you have the greatest sin."

"Haha, why should I so honestly just suck up the sins? To be a cleaner for your Three Realms?" Fiend Ancestor"s female body scoffed. "That"s precisely what I wanted to do, invert this world from what is it. I wanted to make the Fiendish Heavenly Dao fill the Three Realms and be its true owner."

"Excessive flames of desire will only burn you to death," Nüwa said as she flicked her sleeve, instantly sending five-colored beams to surge from every direction towards the Fiend Ancestor.

…

"Black Lotus." Accompanied by resounding voices, two figures appeared side by side as they pursued the Fiend Ancestor"s male body.

Fiend Ancestor"s male body turned to look. "So it"s the two bald donkeys. Amita, you sure are impressive. You managed to break through to the Heavenly Dao realm while I incited the Daoist-Fiend war and spoiled my plans, forcing me to flee the Three Realms early."

"What you did and what you shall receive today is nothing but karma," said Amita. "If you had followed the Heavenly Dao and remained kind to life, we wouldn"t have joined forces to deal with you."

"Hmph, come on. Let me see how powerful you Buddhists are." Fiend Ancestor"s male body scoffed.

…

In terms of speed, G.o.ddess Nüwa, who had the greatest amount of acc.u.mulated insight and strength, was the first to chase up to the Fiend Ancestor"s female body.

For Buddhist Ancestor Gautama and Amita, although Amita had recently attained the Heavenly Dao realm, his essential Great Dao, the Infinite Glow, was extremely fast. Although he had not had much time to acc.u.mulate his insights, he ended up being second to chase up to the Fiend Ancestor"s avatar.

Instead, it was Fiend Ancestor"s strongest destruction body whose speed at tunneling through s.p.a.ce-time was greater than his other two avatars.

"Both my avatars have been caught up to so quickly?" Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was fleeing via a different path at extremely fast speeds, but there was an ethereal aura rapidly closing in on him. It was faster than his tunneling of s.p.a.ce-time.

"My destruction body can"t escape them either. I have ultimately cultivated for too short a period of time. Although I have been working hard to study the Dharmic formulations of s.p.a.ce-time, I"m still not their match." Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was furious and indignant. As he looked at the figure appear behind him, it was a white-haired elder who was none other than Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor. With a flick of his wrist, he produced a huge black and white Taiji symbol in the surrounding area.

The moment the Taiji symbol appeared, s.p.a.ce-time was suppressed, preventing Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body from continuing his tunneling of s.p.a.ce-time. All he could do was fly.

Whoosh.

Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning and Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor appeared closely behind.

"Your destruction body escaped quite quickly." Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor had the four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords floating behind him as he said with a smile, "Thankfully, Elderly Lord"s attainment in the s.p.a.ce-time Dao is deep and profound, allowing him to catch up to you."

"The Daoist"s Three Pure Ones are joining forces to deal with my destruction body. That"s quite an honor." Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body looked at the trio in front of him.

The Three Pure Ones had joined forces to create the Daoist school of thought.

Before they reached the Heavenly Dao realm, the trio had often joined forces and reigned supreme in the spatial tides.

The three of them had powerful means and worked well together. The three combined was a force to be reckoned and according to the plan, they were to deal with the most problematic destruction body.

"We can"t underestimate this destruction body of yours," said Primordial Beginning. "Defeating you isn"t difficult. Even I can defeat your destruction body in an individual fight, but to completely kill you will require the three of us."

"The three of us would have an absolute chance of doing so," said Numinous Treasure. "Black Lotus, die!"

With that said, the four terrifying sword beams tore through the Chaos and sliced towards the destruction body.

"You can forget about killing me even if all three of you join forces!" The destruction body opened its third eye at its glabella as terrifying destructive auras erupted. A black beam shot out and clashed with the four sword beams. The Divine Eye of Destruction that represented Major Destruction barely fended off the four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords, but far off, Primordial Beginning held up a cloth banner.

This cloth banner was the legendary main body of Pangu"s Ax after he split the heaven and earth apart—Pangu Banner.

Even the remnant main body of Pangu"s Ax was a top-grade Connate Cardinal treasure in the Three Realms.

"Boom." With just a wave of the Pangu Banner in his hand, the void where the Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was suffered an immense suppressive force. The force attempted to shatter everything, including the Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body.

If Numinous Treasure"s attack was considered extremely sharp and terrifying, then Primordial Beginning"s attack was entirely direct and straightforward as he produced a singular suppression.

Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body had just used his Divine Eye of Destruction"s forces to fend off the four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords, so at that moment, all he could do was blanket his body with a blue light to withstand the strike of the Pangu Banner.

"Bam!"

The void around Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body shattered as many wounds appeared over the surface of his body. Blood splattered, but he managed to withstand the blow.

"Even a black lotus like you has improved," said Primordial Beginning in astonishment.

"This Black Lotus"s destruction body is indeed powerful. He has also changed a Lotus Seed of Fate into a Divine Eye of Destruction. One on one, no one can kill him," said Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor. "From my point of view, we should combine forces and be rid of him."

"Alright, let"s go with Elderly Lord"s suggestion," echoed Numinous Treasure and Primordial Beginning. They had each tried, so they knew that they couldn"t kill the destruction body without joining forces.

However, Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body became very wary.

"Arise."

A gigantic black-and-white Taiji symbol enveloped the surroundings for hundreds of millions of kilometers, causing the Chaos to separate into Yin and Yang. The Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was completely trapped in this black-and-white Taiji symbol world.

"I"m trapped." Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body felt anxious and helpless when trapped within.

"Go." Numinous Treasure waved his hand and sent the four divine swords flying out as they landed on four spots of the Taiji symbol.

"Destroy." Elder Lord commanded.

As Primordial Beginning waved the Pangu Banner, he dealt an all-out blow and struck right at the center of the Taiji symbol.

The Taiji symbol was also delivering Yin and Yang a.s.saults.

The might of the four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords was fully gathered as they converged to the center.

The Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was trapped in the middle of the array formation and could only suffer the terrifying annihilative forces. He desperately tried to fend off the attack as immense amounts of black light from his Divine Eye of Destruction enveloped his body.

"Boom!"

The combined strike landed.

When calm was restored, the Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body had long been pulverized. All that was left was the Divine Eye of Destruction and other items.

The Fiend Ancestor"s destruction body was dead!

"He wasn"t able to withstand the first move of our combined attack," said Primordial Beginning.

"It"s already impressive that it required the three of us to deliver a combined attack. After all, he reached the Heavenly Dao realm later than us, and he had not acc.u.mulated much. He could rely only on the might of his Divine Eye of Destruction," said Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor.

"Out of his three avatars, we are the first to kill him," Numinous Treasure sensed and said with a smile.

…

"I"m one step slower than the Three Pure Ones." G.o.ddess Nüwa looked at the Fiend Ancestor"s female body which was bound by five-colored light as the female body struggled desperately.

"Obliterate," G.o.ddess Nüwa said softly.

An invisible surge spread out, pervading the mind of the Fiend Ancestor"s female body. Instantly, her Essence Soul quaked as she became much weaker at defending against the five-colored light.

"Pew." The five-colored light suddenly retracted as the Fiend Ancestor"s female body was smashed into powder.

The Ancestral Fiend"s female body was dead as well.
