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

Chapter 290 God Eater Nuwa's Bone

Jing Qian's gaze was sharp as lightning as he faced the Five Elements Divine Mountain without flinching.

The [Nuwa] method of mending the heavens, which is the fundamental law practiced by Nuwa, is the inheritance of the [Nuwa bloodline]. It combines the five elements and five phases, and can mend the heavens above and suppress ghosts and gods below.

This is the core of her true combat power as a [Transcendent] powerhouse.

Even if you separate them according to the Five Elements and Five Phases, they are still five incredibly powerful [Daoist Techniques]. When they are combined, they are naturally even more powerful.

The methods practiced by [Egao Shangdi] are of the same origin and lineage as those of [Nuwa].

After [Nuwa] took over the body of [Egao Shangdi], she was able to unleash her full power.

Compared to her peak, [Empress Nuwa] only lacks the [Divine Mechanism] and [Spiritual Treasure] to suppress herself, and lacks a stronger [Dao Power] as a source of energy.

However, this Five Elements Divine Mountain already possesses the true power of "transcendence".

She went all out to crush Jing Qian, ensuring he could never recover!

And isn't this exactly what Jingqian hoped for?

Jing Qian carries four major Taoist artifacts with him: Pangu, Zhuxian, Sumeru, and Wushi Pai.

However, his cultivation period was too short, and his advancement speed was too fast.

In his own eyes, even though his own Daoist magic was strong enough, it was like a rough diamond that hadn't been polished; it was just like cooking oil over a raging fire, not truly powerful.

He needed this Five Elements Divine Mountain in front of him to prove his Dao.

Jing Qian let out a long roar, his body surging with Daoist energy. He neither dodged nor avoided the Five Elements Divine Mountain that had been pressing down for countless ages, and charged straight up towards it!

When the Pangu Method is activated to its fullest extent, the Dao body bursts forth with chaotic light, as if an ancient god were creating the heavens and earth, and with a single punch, it tears apart Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

[Slaying Immortals Technique] Compresses a massive sword array, condensing it into four blood-red sword beams that surround the body, unleashing endless annihilation and slaughter sword light.

The [Sumeru Dharma] allows him to be omnipresent, untouched by a single leaf, detached from the world. Amidst overwhelming suppression, it opens up a corner of immortal pure land.

The Pangu Great Abyss Sword in his hand is the ultimate collection of all power and the fusion of all Daoist principles, the strongest node.

Jing Qian's sword strikes like a dragon, resolute to the death without regret!
The five-colored divine mountain crashed down, colliding with the greatsword in his hand, producing a deafening roar that shook the heavens.

His body trembled violently, golden blood spilled from his mouth, yet he continued to laugh:

"Well done!"

He felt his own Dao foundation tremble violently under this terrifying pressure. His cultivation, which had become weak due to rapid progress, was forcibly solidified, honed, and refined.

The [Sumeru Stele of Nothingness] quietly appeared, spreading out a circle of clear light, protecting his true spirit from destruction and from all harm.

The attack from the Five Elements Divine Mountain was mostly absorbed by the [Sumeru Wushi Stele].

He actually managed to block Nuwa's attack!

Deep within that Sumeru dimension, the Sumeru True Water fell suddenly and rapidly, like rain pelting banana leaves!

This true water was once again transformed into resources to enhance the defensive capabilities of the [Sumeru Monument of Peace and Tranquility].

This [Taoist Technique] is a defensive technique that is even more unreasonable than adding points to Deep Blue!

In their second encounter, Jing Qian suffered a minor injury and lost a move, but he was still capable of fighting.

[Empress Nuwa] coldly retorted:
"Resist tenaciously!"

With five fingers pressing down, the sacred mountain sank another three-tenths of its depth.

Despite his bent back, Jing Qian did not retreat an inch, and the lines in his eyes flowed like a river of stars.

He was actually using the power of the five elements' birth and death to temper his Taoist skills and power. His sword intent became increasingly sharp, and his true form of Pangu became more and more solid.

This sacred mountain, powerful enough to suppress everything, became his most dangerous yet perfect whetstone.

However, this was not enough; he merely withstood the opponent's offensive without gaining any initiative.

How could they possibly suppress Nuwa and prevent her from stopping Goddess Ego's next move when they were being passively attacked like this?

He needs to be even harder!
……

In the "Bei'e Yinghuang Wuji Tian", everything is in complete chaos. The sudden collapse of the superstructure has stirred up unimaginable turmoil.

All the [Spirit Officials] had their fundamental talismans removed, resulting in severe damage to their vital energy and strength.

Many people have even lost their lives because of this!
【Goddess Ego】is more ruthless than anyone could have imagined.

It was as if, in her heart, there was no one who was worthy of her attention.

She destroyed her entire pantheon, extracted all the scattered talismans and magical power, and what she gathered together was a completely different kind of [Dao Power]!
In truth, the "Dao Power" gained from sacrificing everything was the Empress's final strategic reserve.

[God of the Nile] had no other choice!

She intends to use [Divine Child's Dislike] as the core, integrate new [Dao Power], and embark on a completely new path of cultivation.

She swallowed the [Dao Power] in one gulp, activating a peculiar technique that caused half of her bloodline to begin burning!
The blood of Pangu was burned to enhance the blood of Nuwa, and a powerful divine aura of the Great Dao suddenly erupted.

This divine aura, following the causal connection between the [Divine Child Yan] and the [Goddess Ego], disappeared into the void.

The Empress's greatest trump card is her identity as the "Oath Keeper"!
Similar to the "Imaginary Child" who manipulates consciousness, the "Oath Keeper" truly holds the key to manipulating the laws of cause and effect.

Now, she has exhausted all her backup plans, and whether she can succeed depends entirely on Jing Qian!
The Empress raised her hand and clenched it, causing the [Duke of Jing] talisman hidden within Jing Qian's sea of ​​consciousness to quietly disintegrate.

This is the most crucial signal she gave!

……

Jing Qian was like Sun Wukong, who was trapped under the Five Elements Divine Mountain. He held his sword and resisted the power of the entire mountain. Although he was not crushed to death, he could not break free for a while.

However, he was a masochist and never intended to break free!

Suppressed by Nuwa and worn down by the power of the Five Elements and Five Phases, his cultivation of various Daoist arts was progressing rapidly, and even his Primordial Power was becoming more and more solid.

His acting was quite convincing; beneath the sacred mountain, the crows howled as if they were truly suffering unbearable torment, which temporarily intimidated the "Empress Nuwa".

In Nuwa's eyes, killing Jing Qian's true form was not a big deal. Even if he was tough and held out for a while longer, it wouldn't make a difference.

To truly kill this sword cultivator, the most crucial step is to remove all his anchor points in the river of time, preventing him from achieving [Time Sequence Refresh].

As a Great Sage of Transcendence, Nuwa has been deeply immersed in the Great Dao of Time.

She was absolutely confident that she could eliminate all of Jing Qian's anchors during his first death!

She's already started preparing!

While continuing to suppress Jing Qian with the Five Elements Divine Mountain, she rose up and transformed into a beam of light, falling into the flow of time.

【Nuwa】is situated between the past and the future, watching over Jing Qian. She waits for his present-day self to die, then she will trace the fluctuations of time to find his anchor point.

She was like a seasoned hunter, her cold gaze fixed on her prey struggling in the trap, waiting to make the final harvest.

But she didn't realize that in the distant past, far beyond where she stood, a divine eye was silently watching her.

Jing Qian's anchor point in the past was the "Eye of the Annual Rings," which was buried much deeper than "Nuwa" could have imagined!
Beneath the sacred mountain, he was also planning his next move.

For him, the key to everything was how to overcome the strong with the weak and truly kill the "Transcendent" before him.

This is his first battle against transcendence since his past!

It was also a crucial battle that truly laid the foundation for his future path.

His current four Daoist techniques and nine sword techniques are all unable to truly help him win.

What he prepared for Nuwa was his true trump card!
When the talisman of [Duke Jing] shattered within his sea of ​​consciousness, it was due to the subsequent activation of [Egao Shangdi].

The countdown to when this second move will take effect has begun!
If Jing Qian is unable to suppress Nuwa even briefly, then the most crucial opportunity to win will be completely lost!
So, he started it without hesitation!

He silently withdrew the Pangu Great Abyss Sword that he had been holding in front of him, and used only the Sumeru Wushi Stele for defense.

Without the crucial support of his sword, all the pressure rushed onto his shield.

Suddenly, the [Stele of Peace] burst forth with dazzling light, and the [True Water of Mount Sumeru] surged forth like a mountain torrent and a tsunami.

But strength cannot last. With a loud "crack," the crystalline shield shattered completely!

Without any defenses, Jing Qian's [Pangu True Form] was directly crushed into mincemeat beneath the sacred mountain.

This is the crucial moment that Nuwa has been waiting for!

She unleashed her full power, creating an extremely violent surge of magical energy between the past and the future.

She intends to use her superior cultivation of the Great Dao of Time to completely suppress Jing Qian's resurrection.

Within her perception, Jing Qian's primordial spirit suddenly appeared and leaped into the river of time.

She unleashed her full power of Dao energy, creating a giant handprint that combined Dao energy with the Dao rhythm of time, and grabbed Jing Qian's primordial spirit.

At that very moment, from the depths of the past, the Eye of Time shot out a pure beam of spiritual light, reaching Jing Qian before Nuwa could.

He was like a hungry person who had received enough food, and his whole being was suddenly refreshed and quickly restored.

A single refresh only consumed one-third of his [Primordial Power], which is much more efficient than ordinary [Time-Sequence Dao Power]!

After being resurrected, he rushed towards the [Empress Nuwa] in front of him with a silly smile and said:
"[Empress Nuwa], what amazing divine powers! It's a pity we can't continue experiencing them; what a shame!"

"This time it's my turn to attack. I invite [Empress Nuwa] to test my skills!"

After saying that, his figure disappeared again.

[Nuwa] sneered and said:
"You little brat, you're really good at putting on airs. If you don't die, who will?"

She had already taken advantage of this time to spot Jing Qian.

The other party has already revealed their time anchor point, and in her eyes, they are already dead.

These two powerful beings chased each other along the river of time, traversing the past, crossing the present, and diving into the future.

The two of them became much more cautious.

After all, the future is undoubtedly more chaotic, complex, and dangerous than the past.

If one is not careful, one can easily get caught in the turbulent flow of future time and become completely lost.

For Jing Qian, his anchor point in the future is even stronger than the "Eye of the Year Rings" in the past.

Back then, he used his "Sumeru Great Dao Stele" to project a vision into the future.

At this moment, he headed straight for his own Dao stele.

Jing Qian's figure suddenly solidified amidst the turbulent flow of time, with the illusory image of the [Sumeru Great Dao Stele] appearing majestically behind him.

As the inscriptions flowed, he grasped the entire timeline of the next ten thousand years in his hands.

He turned to look at the [Empress Nuwa] who was about to rush towards him and said:
"[Empress Nuwa], behold this move!"

He pointed his fingers like a sword, using the power of the primordial chaos to activate the divine power of the Dao Stele. In an instant, a golden rainbow surged forth from the future.

When Jing Qian was promoted to [Chronology], he connected the [Sumeru Great Dao Stele] to the sixth river of time.

He thus gained partial authority to move the Dao stele.

At this moment, he successfully used the divine power of the Dao Stele to unleash an extremely important supernatural ability.

He forcefully pulled out a sword light from a fragment of the future!
This is his own sword light!

Jing Qian, originating from the future, possesses higher cultivation and greater combat power.

He is using the sword of the future to slay the enemies of the present!

The surging [Primordial Power] was devoured by the [Sumeru Great Dao Stele].

Since his advancement, Jingqian has accumulated forty-six [Primordial Powers], encompassing three types of [Dao Power]: [Primordial], [Sumeru], and [Time Sequence].

He only needs one-third of the Primordial Power for each [Time Sequence Refresh].

However, by borrowing a sword from the future, he directly depleted half of his [Dao Power] reserves!
And powerful ultimate moves naturally have extremely strong effects.

The sword light surged from the future, carrying with it the supreme sword intent of ten thousand years later.

This sword strike transcends the laws of time and karma, carrying the power of Jing Qian's future peak!

Nuwa's pupils constricted sharply, and her five-colored divine light hastily met the sword's edge, only to shatter like glass the instant it touched it. "Impossible!"

She was filled with shock and anger, and her Daoist aura burned wildly around her.

However, the Sword of the Future had already locked onto all spacetime variables, ignoring all defensive techniques, and pierced straight through her [Transcendence] Dao Foundation.

Where the sword light passed, Nuwa's body disintegrated into countless streams of light, and even her true spirit was completely annihilated by the Daoist essence of "Zhu Xian" contained within the sword intent.

Jing Qian stood atop the Daoist stele, hands clasped behind his back, watching the dissipating light, and murmured:

"This future me is really awesome!"

With a single, successful sword strike, Jing Qian killed Nuwa, thus avenging his past humiliation of being crushed into mincemeat by the Five Elements Divine Mountain.

But how could the Great Sage, who had transcended worldly desires, perish so easily?

Having condensed the order of a day, [Empress Nuwa] returned from the past with even greater ease!
However, after being resurrected, Nuwa no longer dared to chase Jing Qian into the future.

She returned to the cracks of the past, cautiously watching the enemy at the end of time.

The two of them gaze at each other from across the present world.

Jing Qian's sword of the future far exceeded Nuwa's imagination.

This ability to sever the present world from the future was something she had never heard of in her entire cultivation journey!

Even a transcendent being, who can glimpse parts of the future, could never do this.

This is the unique wonder of the [Xumi Daodao Stele], a precious treasure, and also Jing Qian's true trump card.

With this trump card, as long as his [Dao Power] is sufficient, and as long as he can lure the enemy into the future timeline, he can almost guarantee a fatal blow in one go!

In any case, among the countless possibilities of the future, there will always be the awesome choice of Jing Qian becoming a god and ancestor, destroying everything.

He only needs to borrow a single sword aura from the strongest future.

Right now, he has unleashed his full power and has finally managed to kill [Nuwa] once.

But that's still not enough!

If Nuwa hides in the past and stops chasing after him, he still cannot completely suppress her.

Therefore, Jing Qian resolutely broke away from the future and headed back in the opposite direction to chase after [Nuwa].

The Great Sage on the other side, who had been successfully ambushed by Jing Qian, was already furious.

But she was too afraid to delve deeper into the future.

At this moment, Jing Qian came chasing after her, clearly underestimating her.

Nuwa became even more enraged, gathering all her Dao power to suppress the surrounding space-time, waiting for Jing Qian to attack.

This kid's cultivation on the Great Path of Time is stronger than she imagined.

She decided to stop competing with this kid in terms of cultivation of the Great Dao of Time and instead rely on her own magical power to kill him once again.

Jing Qian saw that [Empress Nuwa] was high in the past, looking at her with anger, but a sharp glint of Ji Cheng flashed in his eyes.

What he was waiting for was this moment when the other side abandoned the future battlefield and lingered on the past!
"Now that you have returned to your homeland, senior, you shall once again savor this sword!"

He let out a long laugh, and the illusory image of the [Sumeru Great Dao Stele] reversed and flowed behind him.

All his personal experiences in the past were deeply ingrained in his mind.

After careful examination, he successfully extracted a particular fragment.

That was a fragment of his past when he was breaking through to the [Mountain of Immortal Qi] and fighting the [Pure Yang Dao Ancestor] with three sword strikes!

Immediately, he raised his hand and pulled out the full-force sword strike of the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor from the past!
With the half-crippled [Nuwa] before her, how could she withstand the full force of [Chunyang]'s sword strike?
Even if she were completely unharmed and protected by the Divine Mechanism, she might not be able to withstand such a fierce sword strike!

A flash of sword light!

This sword strike, carrying the supreme Yang Daoist essence that the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor once used to shatter all laws, leaped forth fiercely from the long river of the past, its blazing sword intent instantly burning away the surrounding spatial turbulence.

Nuwa's pupils trembled violently. She never expected that Jing Qian could borrow the full force of another transcendent being from the past!
She was all too familiar with that sword light!

"That old scoundrel Chunyang!"

She shouted in shock and anger, and the five elements of Daoist energy hastily condensed into a shield.

However, the pure Yang sword energy, like a devastating force, pierced through the five-colored light and directly cleaved her newly reconstructed Dao body.

The sword's power had not yet subsided, and it further nailed her remaining true spirit to the barrier of time.

Jing Qian arrived through time, his robes fluttering as he gently stroked the trembling sword energy.

"Senior, you should know that one who can borrow the sword of the future can also borrow the sword of the past."

After saying this, she pointed her fingers and made a stroke, and the pure Yang sword energy exploded, completely annihilating the last trace of [Empress Nuwa] into the river of time.

He killed Nuwa for the second time!
Without pausing, he raised his hand and summoned a full-force sword strike from the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor.

Both utilize the power of the Great Dao of Time and borrow the light of a sword.

He borrowed his own future sword, expending a full half of his [Primordial Power].

It can borrow the sword light of the past [Pure Yang Dao Ancestor], which only consumes seven [Dao Power], saving more than two-thirds, and the cost-effectiveness is also the best.

Right now, he has enough mana left to unleash the third Sword of the Past, enough to kill Nuwa at least twice more!
When Jing Qian used the [Sumeru Great Dao Stele] in actual combat for the first time, it unleashed an astonishingly powerful force.

Even a transcendent enemy was easily manipulated by him.

Considering the status of the [Sumeru Great Way Stele], this is also quite reasonable.

Of course, Jing Qian did not become overconfident!

This was because his reserves of Dao power were almost exhausted, and he could only unleash two sword strikes at most.

With his current abilities, it's impossible for him to completely shatter Nuwa's transcendent status between these two sword strikes.

At best, he's just a three-second-long, wealthy man who only enjoys fleeting fame.

Unless he can accumulate enough Dao power to borrow that sword energy of the Xuanyuan Dao Ancestor.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to completely kill [Empress Nuwa].

Fortunately, with the next two sword strikes, he had enough to fulfill his promise to God Ego.

Jing Qian pointed his sword again, and a second pure Yang sword aura surged forth from the long river of the past.

With increased proficiency, this sword strike became three times more powerful than before!
The Dao body that Nuwa had just condensed collapsed once again, and her true spirit was burned by the supreme Yang Dao Flame, emitting a mournful cry.

Before she could reshape her form and spirit, the third sword strike came in quick succession.

Jing Qian poured all his remaining [Primordial Power] into this sword strike, which resembled the final calamity light that cleaved the heavens and the earth!

As the sword energy passed, Nuwa's physical body and magical form once again emitted a cracking sound due to the unbearable pressure, and even the surrounding river of time was cleaved in cracks.

She was so frustrated!
When her magical power was at its peak, the [Heaven-Mending Technique] would be so powerful that ordinary people with [Transcendental] abilities would find it impossible to withstand it.

But now, the tiger has fallen into the plains, and has been killed four times by the disciples and followers of that scoundrel [Chunyang].

Nuwa's heart surged with murderous intent, and she was also bloodthirsty!
She relentlessly pushed her own limits to accelerate her resurrection process.

However, during her alternation between death and rebirth, she failed to notice that a unique Daoist aura was pursuing her from the distant Dao Abyss Divine Shuttle.

After Jing Qian completed the task as agreed, [God of the Netherworld]'s backup plan finally arrived in time and erupted completely.

The newly resurrected Nuwa suddenly discovered that her body, which had been so readily available just moments before, had become completely still.

An extremely fierce force of repulsion was amplified upon her divine soul and primordial spirit.

Her Dao power suddenly stopped circulating, so much so that she could no longer maintain this state of being in time and fell into the present world.

Jing Qian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he quickly gave chase.

Having just fallen back to the mortal world, Nuwa felt that everything about her was against her.

The most striking change was that the five empress incarnations that had long been integrated with her also separated and debuted one after another.

The five elements of Heaven, Earth, Man, God, and Ghost manifested and immediately formed a magic array, surrounding [Empress Nuwa] within it.

The dignified "Transcendent" master was actually tricked by the puppet he had been manipulating!

She was trapped in the formation, with neither the power of the Dao to invoke nor the support of her physical body, and was completely suppressed.

Immediately afterwards, the five elements of Heaven, Earth, Man, God, and Ghost all unleashed a massive amount of Dao power, igniting a divine fire of the Five Elements.

Within this divine fire, the five incarnations burned everything away and passed away peacefully.

This ruthless person, 【Egao Shangdi】, not only dismantled his own entire pantheon, but also destroyed the incarnations of the Five Emperors that he had personally cultivated for many years.

Finally, the five supreme [Time Sequence] incarnations burned, and the divine flames they condensed suddenly surged onto the body of [Empress Nuwa].

Divine flames blaze across the heavens!

This Five Elements Divine Flame instantly engulfed the remains of [Empress Nuwa].

This flame contained the resolute Daoist essence of [Goddess Ego] severing all cause and effect, and directly burned the essence of [Transcendence].

[Nuwa] let out a shrill scream, and the five-colored Dao patterns around her body cracked like a spider web in the flames.

"Based on the Five Elements, it will end with the Five Elements."

Jing Qian looked down with a cold eye.

The divine fire burned ever brighter, and Nuwa's physical body melted and dissipated like a wax figure, her true spirit almost being burned into nothingness.

However, this divine flame still couldn't kill [Empress Nuwa]!
At most, it will just mean letting her use [Time Refresh] again.

[Transcendence] The Great Sage is truly difficult to kill!

But at that very moment, the divine flame suddenly reversed, its nature changed, and instead began to be enveloped by a pure life force.

The Empress Nuwa, who had just been burning and howling in agony, recovered rapidly from her injuries under this divine flame and was no longer in danger of dying.

Not only did she not die, but she actually recovered greatly.

However, before she could react, the divine flames reversed again and began to burn her to death.

Having just recovered from her injuries, Nuwa was burned again and was on the verge of death.

Thus, under the machinations of [Goddess Ego], [Empress Nuwa] was burned to the point of being reborn, dying and coming back to life repeatedly.

She suffered extreme pain, yet she could neither die nor escape her predicament by being resurrected.

"How dare you, thief!"

Unable to escape, Nuwa could only wreak havoc in vain.

Whether it's Jing Qian in front of her or the "Goddess of Ego" who is in control behind the scenes, they are both mortal enemies she cannot forgive.

The divine flame that the Empress refined has a unique origin; it is the "Oath Flame," a secret Daoist technique passed down by the "Oath Keeper," and its rank is no less than that of the "Peaceful Tablet."

In the eyes of many who are familiar with the Oath Keepers, this divine flame is also known as the God-Devouring Flame.

Once truly unleashed, even a god could be completely refined to death.

The [Empress Nuwa] before us has approached its limit through repeated refinement.

Although she is physically healthy, she cannot die anytime soon.

But at this very moment, her flawless Dao foundation of [Transcendence] was actually cracked by the fire!

A crystal-clear "saint's bone" was separated bit by bit.

Immediately, a graceful figure emerged from the divine flames, raised her hand, grasped the [Nuwa Bone], and forcefully pulled it out.

This [Divine Child Annoyance] used some unknown method to directly descend upon the battlefield.

And with her very first move, she snatched away the Nuwa Bone, which was the most urgently needed item on her path to enlightenment.

Without the support of the [Saint's Bone], [Empress Nuwa]'s Dao foundation completely collapsed, and a large amount of [Ancient Time Order] scattered throughout the world!
