Chapter 2377: My Life

Random recommendation:

When blocking the End Calamity Sword and forging the legend of that moment, Jiang Wang’s “proving the Dao with force” accumulation was already complete. His accumulation was unparalleled in the world.

He had seen an extraordinary path by the Phoenix Creek, and many years later, lifting his head, he was already gazing at the absolute peak.

Of course, he didn’t loudly shout, “Wait a moment!”

And then go to prove the Dao.

Because his battle with Li Yi was still in progress.

This was a battle of “heaven has no absolute top,” unconstrained by any rules. He could fully ascend on his own, facing this battle with a higher level of power, but he needed to seize the opportunity and time for himself.

Just like when he used one sword to suppress Lou Yue's derivative Dao and end the battle.

Li Yi could naturally interrupt him now as well.

And unlike Lou Yue, Lou Yue had already lost the possibility of an invincible path. Proving the Dao now or proving it a step later made little difference. In fact, proving it a bit later, free from the influence of this battle, and contemplating more could perhaps reduce a little regret — completely making up for regret was impossible. Jiang Wang’s appearance meant that all Cultivators below Heaven Manifestation who had ambitions to step onto the invincible and absolute peak path had to face regret.

Jiang Wang, however, could not be stopped today.

If he was stopped today, his invincible momentum would be exhausted. This peak of proving the Dao with force would lack a portion of momentum, just a portion of power, and wouldn’t be perfect enough.

This was a battle he himself considered fair. He didn’t hope for, nor was he willing for Li Yi to show him mercy.

People watched.

The calamity-free sea of fate path scattering, the “self-attachment” sword light of his own path, Jiang Wang with immortal rainbow around his body...

These three advanced simultaneously!

Against everyone's expectations, Jiang Wang did not use the opportunity to open up distance and seek the absolute peak, but actively approached Li Yi, stepping forward once again to a higher place.

He didn't chop out these two swords to escape.

He never gave up the fight for victory!

Just like every battle in the past, with full effort.

He especially knew, facing an opponent like Li Yi, escape was meaningless. The time he needed for derivative Dao could only be sought in advance.

One step.

The accumulated momentum all the way to here only needed one step to ascend to heaven.

Could he, in front of Li Yi, gain this one step?

It was still remote!

Before truly taking this one step, everything was unknown.

Life's journey is full of twists, the river of fate is unpredictable. No one can calculate everything exhaustively.

Jiang Wang only used his utmost effort, to have the maximum confidence in himself, and then welcome all results without regret.

This was... his life.

He lifted his foot to cross the mountain peak, taking a step forward in the process, thus chopping out the third sword!

Different from the high remoteness of the Calamity-Free realm, different from the stubbornness of the Self-Attachment Sword.

The sword light of this third sword walked crookedly and twistedly.

It walked like a person who could fall at any moment, but always moved forward… a person.

Even a powerhouse like the Northern Celestial Master, Wu Dao You, was shocked to see this sword!

This one sword had too abundant life force. Unyielding life, shining in the river of fate.

He couldn't help but concentrate and look carefully, and finally saw—

In front of these three swords.

Li Yi quietly opened his eyes, quietly stood there, and then calmly, delivered one sword.

This was his second attack in the true sense after the End Calamity Sword.

Very few people knew what Li Yi's fundamental sword Dao was.

Because usually this one sword's full power wasn't released.

Li Yi cultivated sword techniques, learned the "Kai Huang End Calamity Scripture," integrating various sources of Dao Gate sword techniques, and mastering the power of end calamity.

But his fundamental sword Dao was still his own comprehension, the “one” that arose from nothing.

Causes are born from nothingness, thoughts arise from no thought.

End calamity has passed, one life gives birth to ten thousand things!

His supreme great Dao simultaneously mastered the beginning and the end!

If it was said that there truly existed children of fate in the world, in Wu Dao You's cognition, it was actually only “Li Yi” alone.

This one sword was delivered.

The so-called Calamity-Free realm, the process of life being meticulously counted before death in legends, was forcibly stopped.

And that Self-Attachment Sword, which swam across the bitter sea by oneself, along with the bitter sea itself, were all wiped away.

Flowing time, measuring space, tying karma, everything was stripped away.

Finally, only remained, isolated from heaven and earth, one nothingness, only that person existed.

That "person" was leaping upwards, the Dao One Sword was descending.

Everyone was waiting for the final result, waiting for Li Yi to crush Jiang Wang like dry weeds and rotten wood, or for Jiang Wang in his green shirt to pass through the gap.

No matter which result, both were immortal legends. The only distinction was whether Li Yi could maintain his eternally leading ruling force in this current era.

The sword above heaven was "unique," above heaven and below earth, only this one sword. The person leaping upwards was the "angry sea," an endless sea of people.

The two sides intersected at the fate path. Heaven and sea intersected, it was only an instant.

But Li Yi, at this moment, suddenly lifted his eyes. His sword also lifted with him!

At the same moment, as Jiang Wang was just about to climb to the absolute peak.

Suddenly, several terrifying virtual shadows descended!

One thin and sickly, one covered in a crown robe, one fierce but with a compassionate look, one with eyes shining with seven-colored flowing light.

They all lowered their heads together, looking down at Jiang Wang from a high place!

Those few who had intended to stop Wang Xiao's transcendence within the Martial Dao world in the past, who had schemed "to exist with Dao and kill the one who opens Dao"!

During transcendence, they covered each other, mutually deceived, didn't attack each other externally, and carefully guarded their common agreement to avoid truly welcoming the end calamity and falling into eternal sleep.

The power of transcendence was outside heaven. This various heavens and myriad worlds were, in fact, derivative Dao stages!

Every derivative Dao represented the limit of power that could be embodied in the present world.

And at the absolute peak, a heavenly constitution rang out—

"Reversing heaven and acting against it, must be executed by heaven!"

"Heaven does not permit, a person's long life. Heaven does not permit, the thief is mad. Heaven does not permit evil barriers to chase the azure dog, Heaven does not permit, Martial Dao sees the absolute peak—"

The Macaque Zhi Ben lifted that thin, long, fur-covered finger and pointed at Jiang Wang, who was heading towards the absolute peak. He uttered the last heavenly word: "The legacy of the Heaven River ferry boat... should be buried in the Heaven River!"

When Wang Xiao opened the Martial Dao, it was buried in the Martial Dao world. It exploded at this moment!

On New Year's Eve of Dao Calendar 3928, while hunting Wang Xiao, they also cast their gaze upon the most famous heaven-blessed talent of the human race in the past decade. They gathered the power of various worlds, twisted it at the absolute top, exhausted their schemes, used every means, only for one game and two kills.

The pioneer of Martial Dao, establishing the flag of Martial Dao, with hope of transcending and meritorious killing of Wang Xiao. Jiang Wang, who escaped the demonic world's heavenly will, brought back intelligence from Shen Xiao, and created the record limit of Heaven Manifestation in the Fallen Immortal Forest… also to be killed!

These were undoubtedly the two human Dao flags of the current era. Folding them would be the first step in winning against Shen Xiao.

At that time, Macaque Zhi Ben’s strong summoning of Jiang Wang into the heavenly Dao was truly for today.

Being able to send Jiang Wang into the heavenly Dao at that time would have been good, but if they couldn't at that time, or if Jiang Wang later found a way to break free, then there was still this calamity now.

The heaven-deceiving Macaque Zhi Ben used the karma of Jiang Wang remaining there when Zen Master Xing Si crossed the Heaven River in the past as a tie, used the scheme since Xing Si crossed until now as a foundation, and used the powerful means supported by each race as claws—

Sea race lords of calamity, Asura ancient grudges, demon race withered disasters, demon race heavenly sins!

Thus becoming the sin and fruit of the heavenly constitution today.

Whether it was the Sea race, Asura, or the demon race and demon race, they all had enough old grudges and causes with Jiang Wang, and enough reasons to act—leaving aside other things, the Asura race, demon race, and demon race Heaven Manifestation powerhouses, from June of Dao Calendar 3927 onwards, still didn’t dare to act alone on the front line! They only dared to gather together and summon absolute peak support at any time.

The Martial Dao world was a newly opened world, and also a barren world. Wang Xiao's opening of the path directly led to the absolute peak, with hope of transcendence, but the Martial Dao True Monarchs, after exploding many years of accumulation at once, were still only those five.

This also left room for Macaque Zhi Ben to operate.

He tied the killing move targeting Jiang Wang to Jiang Wang’s name, and through the Martial Dao world, left it at the absolute peak of the present world. It only waited for Jiang Wang to ascend that one step to be triggered.

Now, not only was Jiang Wang walking on the path to the top, but also with the invincible momentum of Heaven Manifestation, unprecedentedly challenging the mountain peak from the bottom, almost completing the grand feat of proving the Dao with force. Once achieved, it would certainly shock the ancient and shine on the present!

A hero of the human race was an enemy of all worlds.

They had long listed Jiang Wang as a target.

Today's resolve to kill Jiang Wang was no less than the determination to kill Wang Xiao at that time.

Macaque Zhi Ben had held this remnant of karma from the Heaven River waves in his hand for so many years, letting Jiang Wang's influence grow, becoming stronger day by day, constantly refreshing the history of cultivation… yet he never made a move lightly. Until today, using it to deliver the final blow!

To chop and shatter this first heaven-blessed talent of the human race, to chop away the human Dao light on his body, to chop away the human race’s momentum for a hundred years!

If the demon world had no Jiang Wang, knowing the bell would not return. If Shen Xiao had no Jiang Wang, the demon race could greatly advance their war preparations, with an impending sudden disaster and calamity.

Other vast seas, border wastelands, and abysses need not be mentioned, Jiang Wang’s name was often a key factor.

It was time to correct this "error."

To bury the so-called "future of the human race" in the present.

To wipe away this share of "shocking the ancient and shining on the present" from the history of the human race!

The "heavenly constitution" that Macaque Zhi Ben had lurked in the Martial Dao world had already formed an unchangeable "sin and fruit."

When the melon is ripe, the stem falls, it should also die!

Once triggered, it would immediately cause death.

Jiang Wang's body as a Myriad Immortals True State Sword Immortal was strong enough to resist the existence of end calamity.

Yet in an instant, his immortal rainbow dimmed, his brilliant light extinguished.

He had made all preparations in the process of ascending to the absolute peak. To resist everything while striving for time under Li Yi’s sword. As well as that life sword that even moved Wu Dao You.

All useless.

He was only one step away from setting foot on the absolute peak, completing the grand spectacle of proving the Dao with force, and achieving the derivative Dao True Monarch who would shock the ancient and shine on the present.

For this, he had already paid all his effort.

But what stopped him at the last moment was actually not Li Yi's sword.

Indeed, there were no Dao enemies in the human world, but there were guests from outside heaven.

How unpredictable is fate!

He fell in the process of ascending to the top.

Like a mountain nine *ren* high, the effort is lost for one basket.

Both hands slumped open, his person leaned backward, the green shirt fluttering in the wind, as if a cloud was holding him.

Then his immortal clothes became dirty, the splendor of his head crown withered, sweat flowed under his arms, a foul smell suddenly arose, no longer happy in his original seat.

In an instant, the five declines of heaven and man had occurred, and it was the great five declines!

Alien race derivative Dao, standing at the absolute peak of the present world.

Acting against the human race’s heaven-blessed talent who was impacting the absolute peak.

Within the entire range of the present world, all absolute peak powerhouses were almost simultaneously alarmed!

But they were trapped and locked by the extermination forces of the four races, and the human race's absolute peak powerhouses outside this battlefield were fundamentally unable to stop it in the first instance.

Jiang Wang and Li Yi’s battle was in the sky above Jing Country, with the sea of clouds as the stage, boundless on all sides.

But the place where Macaque Zhi Ben and the others painlessly struck the killing blow, the place where the confrontation truly occurred, was not a specific time-space. Instead, it was the mysterious absolute peak of derivative Dao.

Just like the Martial Dao world of the past.

Compared to the just-opened, still barren Martial Dao world, a solid Dao world was naturally much more prosperous.

Since ancient times, the absolute peak has been like a forest.

Both the martial world and the Dao world had absolute peak summits, both could directly touch the end of cultivation.

Macaque Zhi Ben then drew the battlefield at this position, not truly involving any specific country or family, unrelated to Jing Country’s defense force.

It looked like there were only four active individuals: Macaque Zhi Ben, Emperor Demon Monarch, Asura Monarch Shan Tan, and No Grievance Emperor Lord Zhan Shou.

But what they represented were the demon race! The demon race! The Asura race! The sea race!

They were the most powerful opponents in the human race’s process of suppressing myriad worlds.

They had paid a huge price to pave the way for today's situation.

This sin and fruit of the heavenly constitution was almost a certain outcome, and it had already happened, impossible to reverse.

The reason it is said "almost" is because in this world, no one can truly calculate everything exhaustively.

Because while you are calculating, others are also calculating. While you are seeking, others are also seeking.

The instant the four monarchs of the alien races appeared, Macaque Zhi Ben had already pointed out the sin and fruit of the heavenly constitution.

But there was one sword that fell on his forehead before Macaque Zhi Ben could point.

Li Yi mastered the beginning, his sword was faster than everyone, forever "getting first."

Even the "heaven-deceiving" Macaque Zhi Ben was no exception in front of his sword.

But also at this time, in front of Macaque Zhi Ben, a large hand happened to open up.

This hand was so broad, larger than Macaque Zhi Ben’s head, completely blocking his face, and had the momentum to swallow the universe.

Looking up along the palm, one could see a wide crown sleeve, and above the noble crown robe, the scene of demon domain barrenness continuously appearing and disappearing.

This was the hand of Emperor Demon Monarch!

Li Yi’s sword fell into his palm.

Mastering everything in the eight wastes and six harmonies, all things within it, ten thousand sides all worshipping, ten thousand spirits all submitting.

The texture within that palm, what was it similar to? Mountains and rivers!

Supreme stepping to the extreme, mastering the eight wastes.

The Dao One sword, giving birth to ten thousand things from one.

One controlling everything, one giving birth to everything!

Sword and palm met in the vast sky.

Next came only the occurrence of the sin and fruit of the heavenly constitution.

Then only Jiang Wang's fall.

"Wicked thief!"

Wu Dao You, the Northern Celestial Master who was watching the battle from the side, for a moment, his white hair stood on end!

Macaque Zhi Ben indeed did not disappoint his name as the heaven-deceiving one, completing such unbelievable things. First scheming Wang Xiao, then scheming Jiang Wang, arbitrarily acting within the Martial Dao world, simply swimming freely in the deep sea of the heavenly Dao.

But alien race True Monarchs daring to step foot onto the absolute peak of cultivation in the present world and act against a human race seeker of the Dao, this was something that any human race powerhouse could not tolerate.

But although Jiang Wang was close at hand, the slaughter did not occur within sight.

The reason Li Yi could react in time was because he was originally entangled in battle with Jiang Wang, was originally at the place where Jiang Wang leapt upwards, and mastered the beginning, acting even before the extermination forces of the four races trapped and acted.

He and Ji Jinglu interfering in this battle was also only from their own Dao world to the absolute peak, and then from the extraordinary absolute top, killing towards the battlefield drawn by Macaque Zhi Ben—

Everything was very late!
