Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 222 Four Sword Formations and the Heavenly Sacred Bone
Jing Qian achieved three consecutive "Heavenly Mandate" ten-times, backed by thirty second-rank powerful beings who sacrificed their immortal and indestructible status.

This massive investment of resources naturally allowed him to successfully draw out the "Destiny" that best suited him!
Using the Chaos Sword Scripture of the Tongtian Sword Sect as his guide, he forcibly refined thirty Sword Array Destinies, selecting the best from among them.

And this [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation] truly followed a whim in his heart, quietly emerging and becoming one with his life.

According to the Chaos Sword Scripture, in most cases, there can only be one innate [Sword Array].

Only in very rare circumstances can two compatible [Sword Array] Destinies be forged to form an even more powerful [Sword Array].

Just like gathering the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth to forge a Five Elements Sword Formation.

Or perhaps one could refine the positive and negative poles to create a Yin-Yang Sword Formation.

There's also the creation of the Big Dipper and the North Pole, to forge a [Northern Star Seven Stars Hooked Chen Sword Formation].

Jing Qian's new system, created using the techniques of "Zhu Xian" and "Xian Xian," is undoubtedly groundbreaking!

This is unprecedented!

It is a powerful divine ability that no one in the entire Tongtian Sword Sect has figured out!
Extremely powerful, incredibly awesome!
If it can be completely mastered as Jing Qian thinks, then in terms of offensive power, it will be second to none!
Just look at the new divine power that Jing Qian calls "Heaven-Reaching Sword Light" after it has just fused with "Immortal Slaughter" and "Immortal Trapping". It has almost completely killed this "Asura Child" after only a few strikes!
The [Heavenly Sword Light] shines like the might of heaven descending upon the world, its sharpness unmatched and its power unparalleled!

The purple eggplant spirit, which had previously resisted the sword's edge and was eager to be killed, finally changed color.

The gleaming purple demon skin was as fragile as butter under a hot knife before this pillar of light, which combined the power of the two supreme sword formations, [Zhu Xian] and [Xian Xian].

"Zi la——!"

A very strange yet loud tearing sound rang out.

The tough purple skin that [Shura Seed] is so proud of, forged through countless trials by [Shura Purple Clay Immortal Qi].

This [Heaven-Piercing Sword Light] precisely sliced ​​him open from head to toe, along the midline of his spine, just like peeling an eggplant!

The entire layer of purple skin, like a curtain being lifted by an invisible giant hand, curled and peeled away little by little with a harsh sound of skin and flesh separating.

It revealed a deeper, more profound interior, surging with violent demonic runes and purplish-gold flesh.

"Ow!"

The eggplant spirit let out an unprecedented scream, a mixture of excruciating pain and disbelief.

Its most prized defense, the culmination of its life's cultivation, proved utterly vulnerable before this sword light!
The feeling was like having the armor of a victorious general stripped off in the most humiliating way on the battlefield.

The physical injuries, the collapse of his cultivation, and the shattering of his Dao heart completely destroyed this [Asura Child].

After the purple skin left its body, it was completely desperate and began to activate the [Asura] secret technique, triggering its last resort.

The purplish-gold demonic blood, like boiling magma, gushed wildly from the "eggplant flesh" that had been stripped of its purple skin!

The enormous body of [Shura Child] expanded violently, and the raging [Shura Purple Sand Immortal Qi] was no longer used to repair the physical body, but was frantically ignited and compressed, turning into the source of destruction.

It let out a final, frantic roar, and its entire body instantly shone with extreme brightness, like a purple-gold sun about to explode!

That was its ultimate self-destruction, triggered by burning all its flesh, blood, demonic bones, and even its own "life monument"!
【Shura Child】is different from other cultivators.

They are more resolute in their approach to death.

This is because over 90% of the "Asura Children" will die in the "Asura Heaven" ritual, sacrificing everything they have.

But when they burn themselves and perish together with their enemies, they are so utterly unreserved!

The power of [Shura Child]'s self-destruction was enough to blast a huge hole through the entire [Yintian] realm!

A terrifying wave of destruction instantly spread out, shattering the surrounding space inch by inch, and causing the laws of nature to wail!
Just as this world-destroying energy was about to completely spiral out of control and explode...

Jing Qian's eyes were as cold as ancient ice. With a flick of his sword, a void rift appeared, swallowing the exploding body of [Shura Child] into the [Sumeru] dimension.

Before his eyes, all that remained was a completely peeled purple skin!

The purple sun exploded in the [Sumeru] dimension.

The violent magical power swept across a hundred thousand miles of airspace, unleashing tremendous force.

However, it couldn't harm Jing Qian in the slightest!
What's even more outrageous is that after the power of the explosion reached its limit, the power of the [Sumeru] dimension suddenly reversed.

Using the power of space, the aftershocks of the explosion were suppressed and driven back to the center of the explosion.

All the power released by the explosion of [Shura Seed] was compressed back into a small, independent space.

Such terrifying power not only did not dissipate at all, but was also gathered together in an even more exaggerated way.

Boundless purple light burst forth from it, and the power contained within even made Jing Qian feel a slight tremor in his heart.

He felt quite satisfied with the artificial sun he had created by hand.

Just considering the upper limit of the power of the self-destruction of this [Shura Child], it is almost comparable to the Empress's [Five Emperors Divine Light]!
However, the magical power contained within it is at least equivalent to twenty [Five Emperors' Divine Lights].

This is a sun powerful enough to destroy the world.

Jing Qian dutifully buried it deep within the [Sumeru] dimension, waiting to give it to a suitable good friend.

His gaze then turned to the purple skin in front of him.

He carefully observed the skin with his [Eternal Moment Eye] and discovered that he seemed to have gained another remarkable achievement:
[Inspiration: The Scale of the Great Asura Demon Ancestor]

[Rank: First Grade]

[Category: Legacy of the Taoist Ancestor]

This first-grade [Spiritual Mechanism] is the culmination of [Shura Child's] lifelong cultivation, and also contains a portion of the flesh and blood of [Shura Demon Ancestor].

It is one of the very few treasures that possesses a transcendent meaning.

At this very moment, the [Great Asura Demon Ancestor's Scale], which he had just ripped to shreds, had already recovered most of its original size.

Even without the nourishment of the immortal energy from the Asura Child, this large purple scale can gradually repair itself.

Jing Qian carefully recalled the battle just now, and he had indeed defeated [Shura Zi].

But what he ultimately severed was not the [Great Asura Demon Ancestor's Scale], but the magical connection between the great scale and the [Asura Child].

Jing Qian shook his head, no longer dwelling on it. In any case, they had already won; the more important thing was how to digest this [Great Asura Demon Ancestor's Scale].

Having cultivated for so long, he had also come into contact with some of the [legacy of the Dao Ancestor].

The hungry ghost, who hides in the Sumeru dimension and enjoys chasing Mo Pin'er every day, is naturally considered a remnant of the Dao Ancestor of Jambudvipa.

The Pure Yang Sword Box, which was once detonated by Zhu Yun himself, was naturally also a relic of the Dao Ancestor.

Within the Pure Yang Cave Heaven, the Hidden Sword Mountain, the Sword Anvil, and the Pure Yang Sword Diagram left behind by the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor are also relics of the Dao Ancestor.

However, Jing Qian was unable to refine any of these "legacy of the Dao Ancestor".

On the contrary, the [Scale of the Great Asura Demon Ancestor], which he had obtained by chance, became an ownerless object, allowing him to attempt to refine and contain it.

This large scale alone is quite compatible with his cultivation.

A void rift suddenly opened, and Jing Qian's [Sacrificial God] avatar quietly appeared there.

This incarnation inherits the destiny of the six great [original Qi] of [Good Corn] and Ghost, Yin, Netherworld, Yang, Vajra, and Purple Thunder.

It is the [Great Asura Body] among his six reincarnations.

The [Sacrificial God] appeared, covering his body with [Immortal Qi], and walked to the [Asura Demon Scale], taking the purple skin and wearing it on himself as if it were a piece of clothing.

Then, a unique aura emanated from the [Asura Demon Scale] and blended seamlessly with the [Sacrifice to the Gods].

[Offering to the gods] He lay down on the spot and fell into a deep sleep.

Jing Qian waved his hand and lifted it deep into his dantian.

Then, he revealed the [Sculpture of Wisdom] and shot it onto the [Sacrificial God].

With the strength of the [Sacrifice God], it would probably take a considerable amount of time for him to completely digest the [Asura Demon Scale] on his own.

With the illumination of this [Source of Wisdom], the process can be greatly shortened. More importantly, he can keep the entire refining process under his watchful eye.

In this way, he can both participate in the digestion of the Daoist Ancestor's teachings and ensure the safety of the entire process.

Since this concerns the legacy of the Dao Ancestor, he must take it as seriously as possible.

And so, Jing Qian continued to sit peacefully in the [overcast sky], beginning a new journey of cultivation.

Just like every Xuanyuanzi, he has taken the art of using war to sustain war to its extreme.

In the midst of slaughter, all prey are transformed on the spot and used to refine the [Xuanyuan Sword Pill] to enhance their strength before immediately throwing themselves into the next battle. This is the instinct of every [Xuanyuan Son].

Jing Qian was not to be outdone. He chose to follow his own methods, extracting the [Heavenly Mandate], refining the [Sword Pill], and cultivating [Immortal Qi], thus completely immersing himself in it.

One after another, the [Immortal Remains Jade] were refined by the [Soul of Baxia], all of which became Jing Qian's resources and were absorbed by him.

Meanwhile, fierce fighting was also taking place on several other battlefields.

【Ghost Hair】single-handedly crushed three first-rank 【Shura Child】sold out.

His six Void Mother Trees displayed extremely strong combat power, even able to withstand the attacks of the Asura Child in a two-on-one situation.

Over the years, [Ghost Hair] has rarely made a move, and his personal name has not been revealed to the public.

However, he attained enlightenment with the appearance of a sage, making him the undisputed number one genius of the Yanfu Dao before Jingqian entered the Dao, and naturally he also possessed extraordinary foundation.

This time, in order to advance his personal path, he launched a full-scale attack on the [Cube Universe], which was also a complete display of his divine power in front of everyone, once again proving the worth of [Yan Fuzi].

After this great battle, in this void, [Yanfuzi] will surely be able to rise in rank and reach the same level as [Xiuluozi].

And this is all due to the formidable reputation of [Ghost Hair]!
As for "Sick" and "Ghost," who entered the "Cube Universe" at the same time as him, their performance was much worse.

These two [Yanfuzi] were in poor condition and their cultivation was slightly weaker. When facing [Xiuluozi], they were caught in an extremely difficult battle, and it looked like they were in great danger.

However, the [Death Prediction] faction has always been known for its numerous underhanded tricks.

Although they were defeated in a direct confrontation, no one knew what kind of ridiculous scheme these two were plotting.

The last two battlefields were a war between sword cultivators!
The three brothers, Zhu Yun, Yan Huanchao, and Zhu Yun, each fought against [Xiu Luo Zi].

Among them, Zhu Yun had just experienced a high-quality battle and was in a stage of rapid improvement in his cultivation.

He easily defeated a single [Shura Child] with ease.

Yan Huanchao and the other two, despite being the weakest in cultivation, joined forces to form a secret formation of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect, using each other's strength to withstand the three Asura Children without being at a disadvantage.

Furthermore, Yan Huanchao could even launch sharp counterattacks from time to time, seriously injuring one of the [Shura Children].

It can be said that although the [Cube Universe] has poured its resources into resisting the reverse invasion of the [Dao Yuan Divine Shuttle Universe],

However, in this latest clash, [Cube Universe] still failed to gain the upper hand.

Both being Devourer Universes, the Dao Abyss Divine Shuttle Universe, which at its peak could accommodate more than a dozen Dao Ancestor lineages, far surpasses the Magic Cube Universe, the private property of the Asura, in terms of strength and foundation.

However, Jing Qian, who was engrossed in his cultivation, paid no attention to their clashes.

He's practically addicted to rubbing the "Heavenly Mandate" key!

He acquired one [Immortal Jade] after another, and one [Sword Array Destiny] after another appeared, but the [Sword Array] he wanted never materialized.

He had no choice but to continue kneading the sword pellets and hand them over to the ritual and the yin to absorb.

Fortunately, even though luck wasn't on his side, he had accumulated enough points, and with perseverance, he finally achieved a miracle.

After a certain advancement of the [Minor Chaos Sword Formation], the third natal [Sword Formation] was born:

[Destiny: Immortal Slaying Sword Formation]

[Position: Destiny]

[The four gates surge with malevolent energy, slaughtering immortals! The heavenly ladder is shattered, and freedom begins.]

Corresponding to the [Immortal Slayer], the [Yin-Yang Sword Pill] also leaped out from the [Spirit Sword Mountain] and completely merged with it.

As their energies intertwined, another [Slaying Immortal Sword Light] inexplicably appeared on Jing Qian's back, continuing to entangle with the [Trapping Immortal Sword Light] and [Slaying Immortal Sword Light].

Jing Qian's combat power has surged once again!
Before the ferocious aura of the [Immortal Slaying Sword Light] had completely subsided in his Qi Sea, he did not pause at all and began to digest the [Immortal Corpse Jade] again.

A massive amount of [Immortal Qi] surged and roared, propelling the sword system within the body to advance at breakneck speed.

One after another, the [Minor Chaos Sword Arrays] spun, collided, annihilated, and regenerated wildly within his sea of ​​consciousness!
His consciousness had become somewhat blurred until the final, more profound and annihilating sword intent than nothingness was quietly born!
[Destiny: Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation]

[Position: Destiny]

[The immortal's transformations are infinitely wondrous; a single sword seals the heavens and shatters ten thousand barriers.]

"It's done!"

Jing Qian was utterly shaken!

As soon as the [Heavenly Mandate] talisman representing [Immortal Absolute] was formed, the [Spirit Sword Mountain] deep within Jing Qian's Qi Sea exploded with a deafening roar.

The last dormant [Sacrificial Sword Pellet] transformed into a stream of light, bursting out of the mountain and unhesitatingly entering the profound [Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation]!
"Zheng!Zheng!Zheng!Zheng!"

Four sword cries, piercing the universe and tearing apart the Great Dao, erupted simultaneously from Jing Qian's body.

[Zhu Xian] The majestic power of heaven, crimson as blood!

【The Immortal's Trap】is a treacherous and treacherous creature, its depths as dark as an abyss!

【Slaying Immortals】Fierce and tyrannical, slaying gods and demons!

[Supreme Immortal] Annihilation and nothingness, utter silence and desolation!

Four completely different yet shared origins of peerless sword light, like four primordial dragons breaking free from their restraints, roared and soared into the sky within Jing Qian's dantian and along his spine!

They frantically wrestled, tore, and collided!
Each clash between them unleashed a chaotic burst of lightning that could annihilate everything.

Each twisting motion felt like Jing Qian's immortal body was being slowly tortured, his bones cracking under the unbearable pressure!
"Ugh!"

Jing Qian couldn't help but let out a suppressed growl, and countless tiny blood-red sword energies burst forth from every pore of his body!
He seemed to have transformed into a chaotic sword source on the verge of exploding.

At this critical moment when the four swords were locked in combat and about to tear the host apart completely, it was a matter of life and death.

The [Sumeru] destiny within Jing Qian's soul suddenly flashed with an extremely pure origin of the Great Dao.

Then, the entire [Sumeru] dimension resonated.

All the spatial power condensed and transformed into a chaotic origin point capable of containing all the sword energy, which fell onto Jing Qian's spine dragon.

The moment this origin point appeared, the four sword lights that were tearing wildly suddenly stopped!
The chaotic origin greedily devoured the essence of the four swords; the four colors—red, black, purple, and white—flowed, annihilated, and merged wildly within the chaos.

Ultimately, it precipitates into a strange substance that is neither gold nor jade, neither stone nor bone, yet contains the sharpness of creation and the annihilation of all things!
This substance spread rapidly, covered, and replaced Jingqian's original vertebrae.

On each new joint, four sword patterns are naturally engraved, connected end to end and constantly changing, clearly the four innate Dao seal characters: 【诛】 (Slay), 【陷】 (Trap), 【戮】 (Slaughter), and 【绝】 (Sever)!
When the last piece of the spine was completely transformed, an indescribable chaotic sword intent soared into the sky from Jing Qian's spine and then entered his sea of ​​consciousness!
The four [Sword Array] Destinies, totaling six ounces of [Destiny], are perfectly matched together.

At this point, Jing Qian's cultivation of "Mending the Sky" had taken a solid and significant step forward.

The convergence of these four [Sword Formations] represents another miraculous rebirth.

[Heaven-Piercing Sword Bone]

[Rank: Bones of a Saint]

Neither copper, nor iron, nor steel, it once lay hidden beneath Mount Sumeru. It brings benefit to those who slay immortals, and death to those who kill them; it traps immortals, causing red light to rise wherever it goes; its transformations are infinitely wondrous, staining the robes of even the most powerful immortals with blood.

Above the Mandate of Heaven, only the bones of a sage can form the foundation for transcendence!
Jing Qian slowly opened his eyes. Deep within his pupils, the four-colored sword wheel flashed and disappeared, returning to Sumeru.

Feeling the immense power within him that supported heaven and earth and commanded all swords, as well as the four ultimate sword intents that were as attuned to his own body and connected to his mind, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his lips.
