Chapter 430 The Mysterious Yellow Earth Changes, the Dao Flame Illuminates the Heavens

The sound of the phoenix carriage was vast and clear, spreading throughout the northern border!

From the cultivators in the northern city to the ordinary people below the city, everyone was mobilized.

Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away in the Yanyang Mountains, the deep-seated subterranean fires were all extinguished.

The mountains shifted, the ravines were filled, and the natural barrier that once stood between the Sealed Spirit Path and the Central Domain was quietly smoothed out and transformed into a flat road.

A black and yellow flag broke through the terrain, rising from the foot of the mountain on the side of the original sealed spiritual path and standing upright in mid-air.

Flags fluttered, and all sorts of figures emerged from among them.

The leader was dressed in an earth-yellow robe, with his hair tied in a Taoist bun. He had a thin face, but his aura was extremely solemn.

He stepped down from the void, his bare feet landing on the territory of the Sealed Spirit Path.

A mysterious Daoist aura flowed through the Daoist, then merged with the Fenglingdao land beneath his feet.

Beneath the earth, the veins surged, as if the roars of ten thousand dragons could be heard. Then, the temperature on one side of the Sealed Spirit Path, which had long been steamed by the earth's heat, plummeted.

The endless underground fire veins disappeared underground and moved horizontally towards the east side of the Yanyang Mountains.

The earth began to change its appearance: flowers and trees grew in abundance, spreading for dozens of miles.

The way of the earth is based on soil, yet it contains the five elements and all things, even living beings!
The barefoot, yellow-robed Taoist priest was clearly well-versed in this art!

Once the entire terrain was completely reversed, the barefoot Taoist in the yellow robe reached out and raised his hand, causing the Xuanhuang flag planted behind him to rise up in response.

The Taoist pointed forward, and the Xuanhuang Banner tore through the void, reappearing dozens of miles away!
The earth ridges roared, and a dragon's head emerged from the ground. Suddenly, a mountain range appeared, stretching across the plains of the Sealed Spirit Path.

The earth changed color in an instant.

"Clear all living beings within the Xuanhuang Banner, and transform the sealed spirit into Xuanhuang!"

The Taoist priest spoke with an indifferent tone, and the figures behind him all bowed and respectfully replied:
"As the Lord commands!"

Judging from the way people addressed him, this barefoot Taoist in yellow robes was none other than Huang Shigong, the master of Xuanhuang Temple who Zizhen had mentioned earlier!

After the crowd behind Huang Shigong responded, they orderly divided into six groups and disappeared behind Huang Shigong, scattering in all directions.

Then a strong smell of blood spread throughout the area.

The disciples of the Xuanhuang Temple officially broke into the territory of the Fengling Path and, through bloody slaughter, formally announced their arrival to the Fengling Path!
Along with the spies whose minds had been enslaved by Li Wushou, they were also crushed in this wave of declaration of war.

Besides the massacre of cultivators, many civilians were sealed within the rocks by the overwhelming power of the earth before they could even react, turning into clay sculptures.

Then, as the terrain undulated, it quietly shattered into a handful of yellow earth, buried deep underground in an unknown place.

Fortunately, in order to understand the movements of the Central Domain and the Sealed Spirit Path, Li Wushou had taken the opportunity to leave behind many spies when he spread the Primordial Spirit Sparrow earlier.

Even if all the spies inside the mountain range that Huang Shigong rebuilt were cleared out, the spies outside the mountain range could still be observed by Li Wushou from afar by descending into his mind.

Not only were some left in the direction of the Yanyang Mountains, but quite a few were also left in the Yuhe River to the north.

Just as the Xuanhuang Territory broke through the Sealed Spirit Path, a similar commotion occurred above the river in the northern region.

Li Wushou divided his mind and descended into the body of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, gazing at the Domain River.

The distant sky was a deep crimson, and the view zoomed in on the sky above the Yu River.

Flames erupted from the void, and a fiery path appeared out of thin air, spanning the Domain River and connecting the Central Domain with the Sealed Spirit Path.

The intense Daoist energy pressed down, suppressing the pervasive poisonous miasma beneath the fiery path.

Clusters of flames swept across the fire path, bursting out from above the domain river and converging with one side of the sealing spirit path to form a huge "fire" seal!

The moment the "fire" mark appeared, the eastern section of the Yuanyanyang Mountains, which is close to the Yuhe River, erupted with raging flames.

Because of the shift in the terrain of Xuanhuang Temple, the eruption of earth fire was so intense that even Li Wushou took notice, and the entire sky to the north turned fiery red.

The earth fire raged across the sky, converging with countless other flames in the void towards the "fire" mark.

The firelight was contained within, enveloping the character "fire" in its deepest part. The entire "fire" seal suddenly transformed into a great sun, illuminating the sky above the Yuhe River at midnight!

Under the bright sun, figures flashed. Zi Zhen and Wu Xia were among them.

The leader wore a gold-embroidered cloak, on which the circular fire shadow of the sun was reflected.

Within the circular fire shadow, flames surged everywhere, with nine different flames dividing the sky into nine layers.

This person is none other than the great power that Zi Zhen once spoke of—Dao Yan! The circular fire shadow on his back on his cloak is none other than the opponent's Nine Flames Dharma Realm, interacting with the rising sun in the sky.

The cloak billowed in the wind, and the sun rose high again, until it was about the same size as the moon in the sky, and the area illuminated by the sun covered dozens of miles.

As soon as Dao Yan had a thought, a phantom flame quietly floated out from inside his cloak and fell into the sun.

Looking down upon the sun-drenched territory, Dao Yan murmured softly:

"Amaterasu!"

As the sound rang out, the sun flashed, and the light it emitted immediately became illusory, even more hazy than the moonlight beside it.

As Li Wushou gazed upon this scene while focusing on his spiritual foundation, a chill ran through him the instant the sun shone brightly.

The next instant, Li Wushou felt a surge of heat spreading through the mind of the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Before a single breath had passed, the Foundation Establishment cultivator collapsed to the ground, his life force completely gone.

In the silence, only an empty shell remained; the soul within had long been burned to nothingness.

With a thought, Li Wushou shifted his mind and descended upon another person whose mind was enslaved, several miles away.

This person was a Golden Elixir True Person, and happened to be located three or four miles outside the range of Amaterasu.

Day and night are separated by a thin line!
The light of Amaterasu, when viewed with the naked eye, does not appear to be hot in the slightest, but when viewed by the soul, it is unbearably hot.

Under the illumination of the heavens, all living beings lose their souls and spirits, their very being consumed by fire.

"The Nine Flames of Dao Flame - Soul Burning Flame!"

Li Wushou recalled Zizhen's detailed record of Dao Yan on the human skin, and murmured silently to himself.

The disciples of Grand Venerable Yanwu and the disciples of Abbot Xuanhuang both chose to announce their official arrival to Fengling Dao through a bloody massacre!

Li Wushou had anticipated that the war between the two domains would be extremely brutal, but he never expected that simply entering the territory of the Sealed Spirit Path in the Central Domain would trigger such a massive massacre!
This was indeed somewhat unexpected for Li Wushou, but this was just the beginning!
The earth was transformed by the primordial chaos, and the Dao's blazing light shone upon the heavens!
This method also amazed Li Wushou.

As expected of the top group of Nascent Soul cultivators below the Great Venerable Realm.

This stirred up Li Wushou's calm emotions. After his seclusion in the Corpse Mountain Forest, Li Wushou still lacked a clear understanding of his own strength.

He also wanted to find an opportunity to compete with these top Nascent Soul cultivators and see where he stood!

I shouldn't be too far off, right?

Calm your mind, and the Styx River within your divine aperture surges with waves.

Li Wushou knew that the Styx River had sensed the demise of countless lives.

It yearns, it even calls.

Li Wushou had a vague feeling that countless fragments of souls were converging towards the River Styx.

Just as Huang Shigong and Dao Yan were slaughtering Fenglingdao, announcing that the two territories had invaded Fenglingdao, the black sparrow divine shadow that was flapping its wings above Jiangbei City gently lowered its huge sparrow head.

Two enormous eyes, like jewels, hung above the northern border alongside the moon.

His pupils contracted sharply, and the scene of Huang Shigong and Dao Yan's slaughter was simultaneously reflected in the huge pupils of the Black Sparrow God Shadow.

The sight of countless lives being wiped out in an instant horrified everyone inside the northern border.

Luan Xuan looked down at the crowd, his expression indifferent and cold, and said:

"See? Cowardice means death!"
