The eldest sister was reborn and broke up, and the disciples were all panicked

Chapter 485 The Grand Finale (Part 1) - A 10,000-word chapter

The distortion of space became increasingly exaggerated.

The value proposition is burning brightly.

"Ok?"

A place beyond the reach of heaven.

A questioning voice rang out.

The demon tree opened its eyes, a hint of confusion in them.

He had been planning this for a long time.

The spacetime there was chaotic, and ordinary forces could not interfere. Only a wisp of chaotic demonic energy on his body could stir up trouble there.

This time.

He went to great lengths to ensure that Li Shuang died there.

but why.

Is she still alive?

Why is she still alive?

The demon tree's expression grew increasingly ferocious, and layers of black energy emanated from its body.

In the Land of Time and Space, the rifts are appearing more and more wildly.

One by one, fragments of abandoned space exploded in the air, and countless points of light fell like meteors.

He simply couldn't believe that Li Shuang could survive.

His eyes turned blood red, as if he could see a distant place in time and space.

In the apocalyptic scene, Li Shuang had only one goal in her eyes.

Protected by the power of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, she charged forward without a care.

The fluctuations in spacetime are even more intense.

Now, every single moment costs her two million value points.

but.

It's ok.

She has already touched it...

The perfect piece for her.

Li Shuang squeezed through the gaps between countless fragments and rushed in without hesitation.

The moment she entered the fragment, it flickered and then vanished instantly.

It has been absorbed into the vast ocean of time and space, and can no longer be found.

The volatile spacetime forces lost their target and calmed down.

Yu Jin looked at the Myriad Laws Eye in his hand, which was still shimmering with light, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Xiao Shuang has entered the spatial fragment!
Even she wasn't confident she could survive such a terrifying spatial upheaval.

But Xiao Shuang survived.

Her younger sister... and Xiao Shuang...

There's probably something they're hiding from her.

but.

It does not matter.

As long as Li Shuang is alive, that's enough.

A place beyond the reach of heaven.

A violent black aura suddenly spread out.

Countless demons trembled in terror.

"The mother tree...the mother tree is angry again..."

"What happened? Who angered the mother tree?"

Shh! The mother tree doesn't like being talked about.

The demonic tree unleashed its fury for a while, then its power subsided.

His face was incredibly ferocious.

Li Shuang did not die, and instead entered a spacetime fragment.

When she returns, she will most likely gain control of the power of chaos.

Both wield the power of chaos, but the power of the Chaos Green Lotus she controls is inherently a counter to her own! Hmm, good.

He really didn't want to experience that annoying feeling a second time.

but.

Throughout countless years.

The blue lotus is constantly being reborn and extinguished in time and space.

But I have been consolidating my forces.

Although he had also suffered several serious setbacks, his condition was always better than that of the green lotus.

With this vast and desolate land as her source of power, did she think she could still forcibly seal herself away as she had done countless years ago?

I don't think about it!

So what if she possesses the complete power of the Azure Lotus?
She is still too weak!
If you're not even a supreme being, how can you fight against yourself?

A greedy glint flashed in the Demon Tree's eyes.

perhaps……

I shouldn't have stopped Li Shuang.

The most important reason why I have failed to become a perfect being throughout countless years is that my power is not perfect enough.

Currently, only Li Shuang is able to bring out the power of the Chaos Green Lotus.

If I can devour her, I can then integrate all her power into myself.

Perhaps... only in this way can he become a truly invincible being.

And this chaotic green lotus, which had been entangled with him for countless years, would eventually become the nourishment for him to achieve the ultimate Dao.

"Li Shuang, don't keep me waiting too long." The Demon Tree's voice was full of anticipation.

As their destined enemy across lifetimes, this time, he is determined to settle things once and for all with this Chaos Green Lotus.

Within the fragments of time and space.

Li Shuang looked around at everything with some curiosity.

Guided by the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, this was indeed the spacetime fragment containing the power of chaos that my mother had mentioned.

However, all that appeared before Li Shuang's eyes now was a vast expanse of white mist.

She stood at the edge of the white mist, unable to see what was inside.

The only thing she could feel was...

The flow of time within this spacetime fragment is absolutely different from that outside.

Li Shuang had no idea whether time flowed faster or slower here. If faster, by how much faster? If slower, by how much slower?

All this is unknown.

A slight worry crept into her heart.

If she can find the chaotic power left behind by Qinglian on this trip, then things will be fine.

If she can't find it for a while and it wastes time, by the time she gets out, thousands of years may have passed in the outside world, and then who knows what kind of scene it will be like.

We need to make the most of this time.

Li Shuang took a deep breath and walked into the misty fog.

She walked very cautiously, afraid that some monster might suddenly jump out from the fog.

however.

The journey was unusually calm.

She walked all the way to the end.

What appeared before them was a stone tablet.

When Li Shuang saw the stone tablet, she was taken aback. Only one peculiar character was engraved on it.

This character has not been recorded in any existing classical texts.

But Li Shuang recognized him at a glance.

This character was the same one she saw on the first stone tablet in the Kendo Space.

She had already grasped the true meaning of that word when she survived her first tribulation.

The word is "灭" (miè).

The meaning of "annihilation" is to destroy everything.

And now this stone tablet from the Sword Dao Space has actually appeared here?
Li Shuang's expression immediately became one of surprise and uncertainty.

She reached out and tentatively touched it. The next moment, a powerful force pulled her in, and she was directly sucked into the stone tablet.

The stone tablet did not contain any terrifying, world-destroying scenes as she had imagined.

There was only one mountain inside, an incomparably majestic and towering mountain.

"Sister Li Shuang, there seems to be something good in here." Li Li couldn't help but pop out, drool dripping from the corner of her mouth.

She smelled an incredibly delicious aroma that made her want to rush inside.

Thinking this, Lili did just that, and she crashed headfirst into the hard mountain.

However, the next moment, she was instantly thrown back, and a small bump appeared on her fair forehead.

Lili looked at Li Shuang with a pitiful expression.

Li Shuang chuckled and gently touched the small bump on her head.

"Let me give it a try."

Holding the Black Abyss Sword, Li Shuang walked step by step to the front of the small mountain.

With a calm expression, she tentatively drew the Black Abyss Sword and slashed it down at the mountain.

Li Shuang used all her strength when she slashed, yet her Tribulation Transcending stage spiritual power failed to leave even a trace on the mountain.

Li Shuang revealed a thoughtful expression.

It seems her guess was correct; to break through this mountain, there is probably only…

When Li Shuang made her move again, she added the essence of annihilation that she had comprehended.

With the addition of the Annihilation Intent, Li Shuang once again went all out.

This time the effect was much better than the last. With the addition of artistic conception, a long, thin mark was instantly left on the mountain.

Through these traces, Li Shuang could vaguely see a cloud of purple gas suspended inside.

As soon as the purple gas appeared, Lili became very excited.

She stared longingly at the wisp of gas, then at Li Shuang, her eyes seeming to say, "I want to eat it, I want to eat it, I want to eat it."

Li Shuang patted Li Li's little head affectionately and said, "Wait a little longer."

Li Shuang had a deep understanding of the meaning of annihilation, and she swung her sword and slashed once again.

This time the crack was even deeper, and after she swung her sword more than a dozen times, the mountain was split in two.

The purple gas floated out from the mountain's belly and eventually landed in Li Shuang's hand.

Lili had been saying she wanted to eat it, but when she actually saw the purple spiritual energy, a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.

When it was surrounded by mountains, you didn't notice it.

Now that this aura has been completely unrestrained, its powerful and profound feeling is spreading out unrestrainedly.

Lili took a deep breath and said with a pitiful expression, "I don't think I can eat it."

If she were to force herself to consume this purple gas, she would likely only end up exploding and dying.

Li Shuang revealed a thoughtful expression.

The next moment, the blue lotus in her sea of ​​consciousness spontaneously appeared before her. The blue lotus also shimmered with purple light, and the two lights reflected each other as if they were one.

The purple energy rushed eagerly toward the blue lotus.

The moment the two collided, purple light scattered in all directions.

Both Li Shuang and Li Li, enveloped in the light, had a strange feeling.

Li Shuang immediately sat cross-legged and quietly sensed this peculiar aura.

Lili was also wandering around in the purple light. She sniffed and had a look of enjoyment on her face.

As soon as the purple energy entered the green lotus, an incomparably comfortable feeling came over Li Shuang, who couldn't help but tremble.

This feeling was incredibly comfortable, as if her soul had suddenly traveled to another dimension.

In a hazy vision, she seemed to witness the scene of the chaotic birth once again, and it was as if she had returned to her mother's womb and become an ignorant child.

By the time Li Shuang realized what was happening, her body had already been cleansed by the chaotic energy.

To Li Shuang's surprise, her golden body of merit was already showing signs of taking shape.

"Merit..."

Li Shuang pondered for a moment.

This purple gas must be the primordial energy.

This is not hard to guess.

To her surprise, this chaotic energy contained the power of merit.

The power of this merit was so strong that she was almost at the highest level of body refinement.

But the chaotic energy is the energy that is said to have been generated naturally by heaven and earth.

This energy should not have any inherent properties; this power of merit is not innate but man-made.

Who placed the power of merit into the chaotic energy?
The image of her mother vaguely appeared in Li Shuang's mind.

Is it mother?

Her mother guided her here and then guided her to obtain the primordial energy. Incidentally, she also left behind merit, helping her to fully cultivate the Golden Body of Merit?
After Qinglian had completely absorbed the purple energy, Li Shuang slowly stood up.

"Sister Li Shuang, this purple aura seems to have made my sword a little stronger," Li Li said with a delighted expression.

She couldn't directly absorb the purple energy, but simply staying within it actually increased the Black Abyss Sword's strength to a new level.

Li Shuang picked up the Black Abyss Sword, adjusted to it briefly, and her gaze became slightly strange.

This was more than just a slight increase in sturdiness. A wisp of purple light now swirled around the lightning on the Black Abyss Sword. This power gave the Black Abyss Sword a subtle air of transcendence.

So this is the chaotic energy that my mother left for me?
The process of obtaining this chaotic energy seemed to have been excessively smooth.

But then she thought, this was something her mother had specially left for her, or perhaps it was meant to go this smoothly.
Li Shuang pondered for a moment, then turned to leave.

Sudden.

She suddenly turned around.

Behind her, a white figure appeared out of nowhere.

It was a woman with a smile on her face, who was reaching out her hand to pat Li Shuang's shoulder.

Li Shuang turned to look at her, alarm bells ringing in her mind!

Who is this?

Normally, Lili has a very keen sense of perception, and if there is someone who harbors ill intentions towards her, Lili will give a warning long ago.

Over the years, I have never made a mistake.

But right now.

The woman in white appeared suddenly, and he didn't even feel it. Lili didn't give any warning either.

Li Shuang subconsciously gripped the Black Abyss in her hand.

The woman chuckled softly, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. I just haven't seen anyone in so long, I wanted to scare you a little."

Lili said softly, "Sister Lishuang, she really doesn't seem to have any ill intentions."

Li Shuang's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of doubt rising in her heart.

This woman...

She has no physical body; what appears before us now is merely a phantom.

He had never seen her before, but he inexplicably sensed a familiar aura about her.

The woman looked Li Shuang up and down, then suddenly smiled and asked, "Which generation of the Ruthless Path are you?"

Li Shuang's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Curious how I knew?" The woman chuckled. "You have the scent of someone I know."

The woman stretched out her hand.

The jade slip in Li Shuang's arms actually flew out on its own.

The woman extended her finger and gently tapped the jade slip.

A surge of energy was injected into the jade slip, and the woman's soul seemed to weaken even further.

Then, amidst Li Shuang's joyful expression...

The figure of the man in blue slowly appeared before their eyes.

"Senior Su Mu!" Li Shuang couldn't help but call out.

Su Mu's eyes were initially somewhat confused. He looked at Li Shuang, then at the woman.

Sudden.

He was momentarily dazed, and subconsciously said, "Is this the last time?"

The woman nodded with a smile: "Yes, this is the last time."

Su Mu slowly looked at Li Shuang.

Is she... the last one?

Su Mu's gaze gradually softened.

If it were Li Shuang, she could do it, right?

The woman and Su Mu seemed to know each other very well, which left Li Shuang somewhat bewildered.

The woman chuckled softly, "Alright, let me introduce myself."

She cupped her hands in greeting to Li Shuang: "Jin Miao, the second-generation successor of the Ruthless Path."

The second-generation successor of the Ruthless Path!

Li Shuang had a vague idea in her heart that this woman might have also cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness, but she never expected that she would be the second generation successor!

"Master, aren't you going to introduce yourself?" A hint of nostalgia shone in Jin Miao's eyes.

Su Mu hesitated for a moment, but still said to Li Shuang, "The first generation successor of the Ruthless Path: Su Mu."

Li Shuang suddenly looked at Senior Su Mu.

He...he is the first generation successor?
“Senior Su…” Li Shuang’s voice was somewhat dazed.

"Surprised?" Su Mu chuckled.

Li Shuang was silent for a moment, then said, "I was just wondering, if that's the case, how long have you been in this jade slip?"

She had long suspected that Senior Su Mu was not a simple spirit at all, but more like a living being.

However, there were some things that her seniors didn't say, and she didn't feel comfortable asking too many questions.

just now.

She got the answer.

But Li Shuang only felt a sour taste.

Senior Su Mu said that she is the thirty-third generation successor of the Ruthless Path.

How long must Senior Su Mu have been trapped in the jade slip as the first generation successor?

Li Shuang's reaction was somewhat unexpected.

Jin Miao turned her head to look at Su Mu: "Master, why did you find such a soft-hearted little girl?"

After all, Li Shuang appears aloof and indifferent on the surface, so you can't tell at all.

Su Mu raised his chin with a hint of pride: "Having met so many people, Xiao Shuang is indeed suited for the ruthless path. Despite all the changes she has experienced, her heart remains soft. This is the key to preserving her true self."

Jin Miao nodded, her expression softening as she looked at Li Shuang. She explained softly, "You should have already come into contact with the existence of the Demon Tree and the Demon Seed, and you should also know about the repeated reincarnations of the Azure Lotus."

Li Shuang nodded.

"Qinglian is forced to reincarnate, but with each reincarnation, she loses a large portion of her power. If no measures are taken, it won't be long before she completely loses the power to contend with the Demon Tree."

Jin Miao explained it to Li Shuang in detail.

"Qinglian naturally couldn't just sit and wait to die. So, she made two arrangements."

"The first arrangement was the Ruthless Dao technique, which is specifically designed to counter the demonic tree and the chaotic demonic energy of the demonic seed."

"You should have already discovered it. The power of the Demon Tree lies in its ability to amplify people's negative emotions infinitely, and then use the Demon Seed to turn people into demons."

"But the Ruthless Path technique can precisely block out these negative emotions."

"Simply shielding oneself is not enough. If one can cultivate to the highest level, one can also shield everyone else."

Li Shuang nodded thoughtfully.

That day, when fighting the super demon seed, Senior Su Mu sacrificed his soul power, allowing everyone to temporarily escape the control of their emotions. It was because of this that he himself fell into a deep sleep.

and so.

The Ruthless Path technique can affect not only oneself, but also everyone else for a short period of time.

The Demon Tree's greatest skill is controlling people's hearts.

The Ruthless Path technique can block this.

This is the key to victory.

"After Qinglian's first reincarnation, she became a woman. She still had some memories left. She created the Ruthless Path technique and chose one person to teach it. That person was my master."

Jin Miao recounted the story.

Su Mu sighed and continued, "However, Qinglian's reincarnation was not very stable at the time. She passed on her cultivation techniques and mission to me and then reincarnated again."

“I don’t have any great talent. I cultivated all the way to the end of my life without breaking through. So, I sealed my soul in a jade slip and waited for the next successor.”

"That's me." Jin Miao chuckled. "My talent is much better than my master's."

Su Mu revealed a helpless expression and said, "That's right. Jin Miao was the first person to leave a stone tablet in the Sword Dao Space."

"Don't let her childlike appearance fool you; her fighting style is extremely domineering. This 'annihilation' aura was left behind by her own hand."

A sharp glint flashed in Jin Miao's eyes: "My view is that to deal with the demonic seed, we must eradicate evil completely! I will use the most thunderous lightning to annihilate all demonic energy."

"Unfortunately, the demonic energy was endless. Although her intention in using the word 'annihilation' was excellent, she ultimately failed." Su Mu continued.

"Master! Can't you let me be smug for a little while longer?" Jin Miao said helplessly.

Su Mu smiled and said, "You are already a genius. It's that demonic seed that's too difficult to deal with."

"So, you are the one who left behind the word 'Destroy.' I was able to successfully overcome the Heavenly Tribulation of Integration thanks to the meaning of the word 'Destroy' from you, senior." Li Shuang bowed to express her gratitude.

Jin Miao looked at her gently: "I left this behind in the hope that many future generations will learn it."

again and again.

Now, Li Shuang has come here.

That proves it.

This time, it will be the last time.

The time has come to see the results of their endless years of hard work.

"Senior. The Path of Ruthlessness was passed down from the Azure Lotus. This is the first method. So, is there a second one?" Li Shuang asked curiously.

“The Ruthless Path is aimed at the Demon Tree.” Jin Miao looked at Li Shuang: “Then the second method is the Thousand Threads Net, a treasure specifically designed to counter the Demon Tree.”

Li Shuang's eyes flickered slightly.

A word flashed through her mind.

The Rebirth Mantra!

“I don’t know what you’re thinking. But it should be a kind of soul cultivation method.” Jin Miao said calmly, “The inheritance of the soul cultivation method is more difficult than the Path of Ruthlessness. Because ten thousand years ago, Qinglian almost lost her self-awareness in the cycle of reincarnation. She could only leave behind a seed of a cultivation method for future generations to perfect. But you came here, which proves that you have combined the two methods and have the potential to annihilate the Demon Tree.”

Jin Miao stared intently at Li Shuang.

Li Shuang nodded: "It's the Rebirth Mantra."

The Rebirth Mantra was originally created by the seeds left behind by the blue lotus.

Lin An came into contact with the lotus seed and gained a basic understanding of this method.

later.

He developed the first version of the Rebirth Mantra.

Over the course of ten thousand years, he continuously refined this method, and finally, he gave Li Shuang a final version.

"Even Qinglian herself probably didn't know if this cultivation technique could ever be completed. Now that you've succeeded, it must be because you've turned a vision into reality," Jin Miao exclaimed.

Thinking of Lin An, who had waited for ten thousand years, Li Shuang paused for a moment and said, "He is indeed a person of extraordinary talent."

Another method used by Qinglian.

By some strange twist of fate, Lin An inherited and perfected it.

“Before each reincarnation, Qinglian’s consciousness returns here once. Last time she returned, she told us that the Demon Tree had become too powerful and must be eradicated as soon as possible. She said that within a thousand years, the final battle might begin. At that time, someone will come here to inherit the will of all those who came before and launch the final battle.”

“Then, I waited for you.” Jin Miao looked at Li Shuang, her eyes filled with relief: “No matter what, everything is coming to an end.”

Li Shuang's feelings were also somewhat complicated.

The magic tree has been laid out over countless years.

And isn't the blue lotus the same?

This is a battle between truly top-tier beings. And she, they, and all living beings are merely vessels.

said the mother.

She has no father; she is the reincarnation of Qinglian.

In the eyes of many people.

Perhaps. She is Qinglian.

But for Li Shuang...

She is just her...

Everything she did was because she wanted to do it.

Li Shuang took a deep breath.

It's no different to think too much.

All she could do was keep going.

So many people's endless years of dedication and effort, in the end, all fell on her shoulders.

She can't lose.

"Let's keep going in. There are other people waiting for you inside," Jin Miao said softly.

As for herself.

She went into the sword-doting space to chat with Su Mu.

next moment.

Li Shuang then left the first space.

The fog was still thick ahead, but she continued walking in.

Then, she encountered the second stone tablet.

This stone tablet is undoubtedly a Qing Dynasty tablet.

The person who left this stele is Yun Xiu, the tenth generation successor of the Ruthless Path.

The way Yunxiu combats demonic energy is to purify it.

however.

His power was too weak, while his demonic energy was too strong.

The small amount he purified on his own has no impact on the overall situation.

In the end, he failed to destroy the demon, leaving only this stone tablet for future generations to study.

Li Shuang has already obtained the Qingzi Stele.

She quickly obtained the second wisp of chaotic purple energy from the mountain.

Then move on.

Subsequently.

She arrived at the third monument.

“You haven’t mastered this monument yet,” Su Mu suddenly appeared. “Now, let the founder give you a little hint.”

As soon as Su Mu finished speaking, a baby-faced man appeared with a somewhat helpless expression: "Senior Su Mu, I still want to hide for a while."

Su Mu waved his hand: "Why are you hiding? Teach me quickly!"

The man coughed lightly: "Chen Yue, the fifteenth generation successor of the Ruthless Path."

"Greetings, senior," Li Shuang quickly said.

"To be honest, this technique of mine is quite difficult. After all, I exhausted all my strength and only discovered it when I was about to die. It's just a pity that my lifespan ended not long after, and I was never able to use this technique to deal with the demon seed myself. This time, it's up to you." Chen Yue looked at Li Shuang with some anticipation.

Li Shuang solemnly agreed.

Chen Yue waved his hand, and Li Shuang's figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

Su Mu and the others stayed where they were, chatting.

"Senior Su Mu, what is her talent like? I'm afraid I won't be able to control this method for at least several hundred years." Chen Yue said with some worry, "The time flow here is one hundred years inside and one year outside. If she stays here for too long, I don't know what the outside world will be like."

Chen Yue was worried.

A strange expression flashed across Su Mu's face. He mumbled, "Her talent... is about the same as yours..."

Chen Yue sighed: "That's already an extraordinary talent. I sent her into the training illusion, and I integrated this concept into the illusion. It should be easier for her to master than it was for me back then. But... she'll still have to spend hundreds of years here."

Su Mu's expression became even stranger.

"We've finally met. Let's ignore this little girl for now and find something to amuse ourselves."

The three men sat down and started playing dominoes out of boredom.

Three years later.

Chen Yue's gaze shifted slightly.

He looked at a certain place with some suspicion and uncertainty.

The next moment, Li Shuang appeared there.

"You've learned it?" Su Mu was already quite used to it.

“I’ve learned it.” Li Shuang nodded, looking at Chen Yue: “Senior is truly a genius. This character is actually ‘化’ (huà). Using the concept of ‘化’ to transform demonic energy into pure energy, that is Senior’s artistic conception!”

Chen Yue's mouth opened slightly.

How long has it been...?

three years?

She mastered the essence of transformation in just three years?
"Good. Now, split this mountain and obtain the chaotic energy within." Su Mu said calmly, as if it were a trivial matter.

Li Shuang obediently went to split the mountain.

Chen Yue couldn't help but look at Su Mu: "Senior, are you doing this on purpose?!"

Su Mu wasn't surprised at all!

Su Mu coughed lightly: "What's the big deal? You should all go through what I've been through."

Chen Yue and the others fell silent for a moment.

Unlike Su Mu, who was already completely used to it.

This was the first time they had directly experienced Li Shuang's talent.

I feel like...it's a bit too monstrous.

The original reincarnations of Qinglian may not have all possessed such talent.

"She is someone favored by Heaven," Su Mu sighed.

Heaven's favor...

Jin Miao noticed something and couldn't help but look at Su Mu.

Su Mu shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Right now, the most important thing is for Li Shuang to gain experience.

Everything else can wait.

After mastering the word "transformation," Li Shuang quickly obtained the third Chaotic Purple Qi.

then.

It's the fourth character.

These stone tablets become increasingly complex as you go further back. After all, those who came later built upon the work of their predecessors and made further creative breakthroughs.

Li Shuang spent ten years.

The fourth word was mastered: "integration".

The person who left this word was Xingyue, the twenty-fifth generation successor of the Ruthless Path.

Xingyue's idea was to blend into the demonic energy without being detected, and then find an opportunity to launch a final attack.

Xingyue also joined the team.

With five souls in tow, Li Shuang arrived at the last word.

This time.

What she saw was someone she knew all too well.

She had never met this person in person, but she had looked at his portrait countless times.

"Greetings, Master," Li Shuang said hastily.

"Little Cang, this is a disciple of your Sword Sect," Su Mu said with a smile.

Qingcang's eyes lit up immediately: "Good, good, good! It's actually someone from my Sword Sect who's here for this final battle."

Li Shuang hesitated for a moment: "Ancestor...didn't you already ascend to heaven?"

Qingcang smiled and said, "Those who failed to leave behind a stone tablet either died of old age or ascended to the upper realm. But I have a stone tablet to pass on, which is why I have the right to wait here. However... I didn't want others to worry, so I faked an ascension ending."

Qingcang's expression was surprisingly proud.

Li Shuang hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

in fact.

For cultivators, ascending to the higher realms is probably a better outcome.

To be transformed into a soul and left only to wait here—is this a good ending?
Qingcang smiled and then calmly said, "Even if there are thousands of people, I will go."

Generation after generation.

I've worked so hard for so many years.

For him, being able to contribute to this cause is the greatest honor.

Li Shuang remained silent, but simply bowed to Qing Cang.

The first offering is to the founder of the school.

The second gift is for Qingcang.

Qingcang smiled and said, "By the way, what about my old brothers? After I ascended to immortality, did they miss me a lot?"

Li Shuang's heart trembled.

a long time.

She said softly, "Super-tier demonic seeds have invaded the Southern Continent. Our predecessors... risked their lives to protect all living beings."

Qingcang fell silent.

a long time.

He chuckled softly: "It's alright. We'll meet again in the cycle of reincarnation."

He waved his hand, and Li Shuang entered the last stone tablet.

This time.

It took her a full thirty years.

Thirty years later.

Li Shuang is back.

Qing Cang looked at her kindly: "Go and split open the last mountain."

Within this place lies the last wisp of primordial chaos.

Li Shuang walked over with her sword in hand.

It has been baptized by the chaotic purple energy four times.

Her physical strength had already reached the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage. These predecessors, each of them possessed astonishing merit. They infused their own merit into the purple aura, which perfectly aided in cultivating their Golden Body of Merit.

Now, her physical strength has far surpassed her spiritual power level.

The Black Abyss Sword had also turned completely purple.

Li Shuang swung her sword down.

This time.

The essence she grasped was: the source!

Demonic energy and pure energy share the same origin.

The meaning of the character "源" is to allow demonic energy to return to its chaotic essence.

This is a level higher than the previous methods of annihilation, purification, transformation, and integration.

The founder's talent was indeed astonishing.

According to Li Shuang.

Judging from his artistic conception alone, his talent may not be much worse than Lin An's.

There are others.

Their talents should be more than enough to propel them to new heights.

But these people all chose to give up the opportunity to ascend and wait here for thousands of years.

These people never said how difficult their wait was.

But why bother talking about these hardships?

Li Shuang silently cleaved open the last mountain, obtaining the final chaotic energy.

The dual cleansing effect of chaotic energy and the power of merit.

Li Shuang's golden body of merit has been completely perfected.

She is now.

With this body-refining ability, he should be able to overpower a peak Tribulation Transcending expert.

but……

Her spiritual cultivation is still far from sufficient.

She was always one level away from reaching the supreme realm.

Less than a century.

Li Shuang has already acquired control of five stone tablets.

They all looked at her with satisfaction.

"A hundred years here is equivalent to one year outside. You have now obtained all the power of chaos, but you cannot leave yet."

"This fragment of spacetime can only be left after breaking through to the Supreme Realm."

"The spiritual energy here far surpasses that of the outside world. You may cultivate here in peace."

Li Shuang was quite worried about the situation outside.

However, after a brief attempt, she realized that with her current cultivation level, she was indeed unable to leave.

Li Shuang could only focus on improving her spiritual power level.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more difficult it becomes to improve.

Fifty years later.

Li Shuang's spiritual power cultivation has broken through to the mid-stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

A hundred years later.

Li Shuang underwent her second tribulation, and her spiritual cultivation broke through to the late stage of the tribulation stage.

Another hundred years later.

Li Shuang's spiritual power cultivation broke through to the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

A few years later.

She is facing her final tribulation.

Those who survive this tribulation will become supreme beings.

If one cannot survive this calamity, then the cycle of birth and death will end.

The third heavenly tribulation lasted for a full hundred days.

During these hundred days, the fragments of time and space were constantly filled with lightning.

"The Supreme Tribulation is indeed terrifying."

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's only because this fragment of spacetime is sturdy enough. Otherwise, it would probably collapse after being struck like that."

"It will be done soon, very soon."

Everyone looked at Li Shuang in the lightning with anticipation.

Once she breaks through, they will be able to leave this place.

After using the Black Abyss Sword to withstand the final heavenly tribulation.

All the lightning dissipated.

More than three hundred years.

Li Shuang...

Break through to the Supreme Realm!

The youngest Supreme Being was born in front of everyone.

Feeling the power flowing through her body, Li Shuang remained unusually calm: "Senior, we can leave now."

Su Mu and the others nodded expectantly.

They all returned to the jade slip.

Li Shuang gently tapped the sky, and a tunnel immediately appeared in the air.

Li Shuang entered the tunnel.

By the time she realized what was happening, she had already returned to the edge of the Time-Space Land.

"Heaven and Earth Forge. Explore the space-time region and exchange a trace of spatial power," Li Shuang commanded.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace collected value points, and then, a trace of spatial power appeared in Li Shuang's sea of ​​consciousness.

Li Shuang carefully stored away this power.

With this spatial power present.

The other four continents, along with the central continent, will then be completely integrated into one.

This final battle requires the power of all living beings.

"Before heading to the battlefield," Su Mu's voice rang out, "go to Wanfa City one last time. The other two great secret realms are unimportant; clear the Great Dao Mountain. After completing these eighteen mountains, you will receive a final hint. I don't know what that hint is, but I imagine it will be very important to you."

Li Shuang responded.

She was originally planning to go to Wanfa City as well.

She spent over three hundred years in the fragments of time and space.

More than three years have passed in the real world as well.

In other times, three years would not be a significant amount of time.

But now is a critical period in the war against the demons. In three years, who knows how many things will happen.

The fastest way to learn about these things is through the City of Ten Thousand Laws.

This City of Ten Thousand Laws allows humans to enter and communicate at any time, no matter where they are.

The existence of such a treasure greatly increased the chances of human survival and bought a lot of time for the final battle.

Li Shuang had been wondering how such a treasure could have appeared in the mortal realm.

But now... there's no need to ask any more questions.

It must be the result of a scheme orchestrated by a reincarnation of Qinglian in another life.

Li Shuang went directly into the City of Ten Thousand Laws.

As soon as she entered, Ember's voice rang in her mind.

"Xiao Shuang? You're out? Did you get the Chaos Power? What's the time flow rate of that time fragment? What's your strength now?" Yu Jin's voice carried a hint of joy.

“There has been some progress,” Li Shuang said obediently, “but I still can’t compare to the city lord.”

She has only just entered the Supreme Realm.

There is still a long way to go compared to veteran powerhouses like Yu Jin.

Ember fell silent instantly.

What does Li Shuang mean by that?
Can't compare to her?

To compare with her, one would have to be at least...

Yu Jin's voice suddenly rose in pitch: "Supreme Realm?"

Li Shuang nodded obediently: "I just broke through."

ember:"……"

"Lord City Lord, I wish to venture into the Great Dao Mountain," Li Shuang said.

Yu Jin paused for a moment, then said, "For those at the Supreme Realm, the Great Dao Mountain is no longer of any significance."

These eighteen Great Dao Mountains are tests of one's understanding of the Great Dao.

However, since one can become the supreme being, one must have reached a certain limit on a certain path.

Of course. Clearing the Great Dao Mountain will reward a terrifying number of points; however, what use are these points to a supreme-level expert?

"I'll give it a try first," Li Shuang said.

Yu Jin didn't say anything more: "Go ahead. We'll talk about other things when you come out."

Li Shuang nodded in agreement.

She traversed through the City of Ten Thousand Laws, heading directly towards the Great Dao Mountain.

The number of people in Wanfa City is significantly less than before.

When people saw Li Shuang, they recognized her at first glance.

Li Shuang?

She has come back!

The greatest genius of the human race has returned!
In no time, the news spread like wildfire, and those who were in relatively safe situations flocked to Wanfa City.

As for the majority, they are still engaged in a fierce battle and cannot extricate themselves from the situation.

Li Shuang also clearly felt how cruel the battlefield was from the number of people involved.

Without saying a word, she walked up to the guard.

The guards of Dadao Mountain looked at her respectfully and said, "Please."

Li Shuang flew up the mountain.

Since the end of her cultivation period, she has never attempted to cross this Great Dao Mountain again.

She strolled leisurely, walking past one mountain after another.

With her current Supreme Realm cultivation, these Great Dao Mountains in front of her are nothing more than appetizers.

During her climb of the Great Dao Mountain, Li Shuang also re-experienced her Dao.

She took two paths.

A ruthless path, originating from the legacy of the Azure Lotus.

The other path, however, is the path of the common people.

These two paths, though seemingly contradictory, lead to the same destination for Li Shuang.

Especially after understanding the etymology of the last word.

Li Shuang drew inferences from one instance to another, and even gained a kind of enlightenment.

Demonic energy and azure energy are both forms of chaos and share the same origin.

In a sense, the Way of Ruthlessness and the Way of All Living Beings share the same origin.

These two paths must be integrated to form the true Great Way.

Li Shuang broke through to the Supreme Realm.

It wasn't simply because of her increased spiritual power.

Even more because.

After comprehending the wisdom of her predecessors, she forged her own path.

After walking out of this path.

All the sword moves she had learned and the sword techniques she had mastered before seemed less important.

just now.

She only has one true sword move left.

That is: to see the common people.

She had already figured out this move long ago.

However, as she witnessed the suffering of countless people, this sword technique underwent different changes.

When Li Shuang broke through to the Supreme Realm, she incorporated the changes in her divine soul into the process.

Seeing the world, this move became the vehicle for merging the two great paths.

From that moment on, she embarked on her own path.

Li Shuang walked step by step to the peak of the eighteenth Great Dao Mountain.

As she stood quietly atop the eighteenth mountain peak.

A huge cheer erupted from the crowd.

Dadao Mountain!
Li Shuang actually cleared the game!
So what level of spiritual attainment has she reached at this moment?

at least.

Her understanding of the Tao has reached a level unimaginable to ordinary people.

at this time.

But a voice rang in Li Shuang's ears.
