Two Realms High Martial Arts: Gathering the Heavens to Become a Great Luo Immortal

Chapter 418 Destruction and Reconstruction: Understanding the Sword of Cause and Effect.

At the very center of the absolute void, a destructive energy storm still roared slowly, the last vestiges of the mighty power of a Martial Saint-level law, capable of obliterating stars.

Space fragments danced like sharp shards of glass, time twisted and fractured here, revealing shattered spots of light.

However, in the center of this absolute dead zone where even light could not escape, a figure floated silently.

It was Li Xijun.

His current state was both tragic and strangely vibrant.

The dark black defensive spirit weapon armor had long since turned to ashes, revealing the body beneath it covered in terrifying wounds.

The once flawless, dark golden skin was now covered with a dense, spiderweb-like network of deep, bone-revealing cracks, like porcelain about to shatter completely.

Within the cracks, there was no longer bright red flesh and blood, but rather a faint glow of dark golden bone marrow and flowing, viscous golden blood.

His left arm was twisted at an unnatural angle, and there was a huge, translucent depression in his chest and abdomen, with writhing granulation tissue and bone fragments struggling to repair themselves along the edges. His internal organs were faintly visible, all shrouded in a pale golden glow.

Even more shocking was that wisps of dark red devouring and blood law power belonging to the Blood Kun, like maggots clinging to his bones, continued to rage wildly in his wounds and body, fiercely clashing with his own Vajra Indestructible True Intent and Indestructible Metal Nature, emitting sizzling annihilation sounds, and constantly creating new destruction.

From the outside, it is undoubtedly a body on the verge of collapse, suffering unimaginable damage.

Paradoxically, Li Xijun's life force did not weaken; instead, it was like a volcano suppressed to its limit, surging with a vast and terrifying vitality beneath its wounds!

Each faint heartbeat seemed to resonate with the remaining energy of the entire abyss of nothingness;

Each difficult breath exhales a rich, radiant life force.

His eyes were closed, his face unexpectedly calm, even carrying a hint of—immersive contemplation.

It was as if this terrifying injury, which could instantly kill any Vajra Realm expert, was merely a "tempering" process that needed to be taken seriously.

The indestructible Vajra Body, combined with the indestructible gold nature of the seventh-level Vajra Realm in the main world, forged an incredibly powerful physique. The near-limitless vitality provided by the 30,000-year lifespan, in that fatal blow, demonstrated effects that exceeded everyone's expectations, including Li Xijun's own.

"As expected, I can withstand even a strike from a Martial Saint level opponent."

On the other side, at the edge of the abyss of nothingness.

The space rippled like water, and a stunningly beautiful figure, clad in an icy imperial robe and with cascading silver hair, solidified in an instant.

Water Saint Alicia took a step forward, her icy blue eyes burning with unprecedented rage and lingering fear.

With a gentle wave of her jade hand, the vast laws of ice swept out, instantly freezing the spatial turbulence and destructive energy still raging at the edge of the abyss, transforming it into a crystal-clear ring-shaped ice barrier that stretched across the heavens and earth, serving both as protection and isolating the inside from the outside.

Her divine sense, like the most precise scan, instantly pierced through the ice crystals and locked onto the broken yet tenacious figure standing in the center of the abyss.

When he sensed that Li Xijun, though severely injured and on the verge of collapse, still possessed a life essence that was as powerful as fire and even faintly more refined and condensed, Shui Sheng's eyes, which were like ancient, cold abysses, showed for the first time an almost uncontrollable surprise and disbelief.

"He withstood a full-force attack from the Blood Kun—and survived... He's truly beyond reason!"

Even with the Water Saint's martial saint mindset, a monstrous wave was stirred up at this moment.

She knew better than anyone how terrifying the power of the laws contained in Xue Kun's attack was. It was a destructive force capable of completely annihilating ordinary Nine-Turn Vajra, and even injuring those who had just entered the Martial Saint realm.

Logically speaking, Li Xijun should not have had a single cell left.

But not only was he alive, he was in even better condition than she had ever imagined, far better than she had even in the most optimistic scenario.

That immense vitality was something that a Vajra Realm martial artist could not possibly possess!

After the initial shock came a sense of relief, along with a heavy sense of guilt.

If Li Xijun were to perish here because of her being delayed by the sniper, she would not be able to forgive herself, and she would have no face to face the expectations of the entire Human Federation.

"Thank goodness—thank goodness—" Shui Sheng murmured to himself, his icy expression softening slightly, but the chill in his eyes grew even more piercing.

She suddenly looked up, her gaze like an icicle, piercing the fleshy dome above, where countless eyes, slowly writhing, also revealed astonishment and greed.

"Blood God, you deserve to die!" Water Saint roared, his body surging with icy laws, ready to strike again.

But even faster than her were two other sudden, domineering, and vast holy powers!

"boom!!!"

The sky seemed to be torn apart!

On one side was an endless azure gale, which howled and evolved into strange phenomena such as azure dragons, celestial rocs, and void storms, carrying the true meaning of the law that could tear everything apart and penetrate everywhere;

On the other side, the crimson flames that burned everything transformed into the Vermilion Bird, the Golden Crow, and the true fire of the sun, burning fiercely and illuminating half of the dark red sky in a fiery red light.

The Wind Saint and the Flame Saint arrived together!

Two Martial Saints descended, but their power was so overwhelming that the entire Blood Kun World trembled and wailed, and countless low-level mythical creatures instantly turned to ashes.

"That's incredible..."

The Wind Saint's voice was ethereal yet grand, a rare hint of surprise flashing in his eyes as he looked at Li Xijun in the center of the abyss, "This physical lifespan... is already close to that of a Saint."

The Flame Saint solidified into a humanoid form of seven-colored flame, his voice like rolling magma: "Seven Revolutions of Vajra, withstanding a full-force attack from an Emperor-level being—unheard of! How did he temper his physical body?"

Even the two martial saints, who were well-versed in the world and stood at the pinnacle of humanity, felt their understanding being challenged.

Below the level of a martial saint, all are but ants; this is a manifestation of the almost ironclad power disparity in the universe.

Li Xijun's performance can no longer be described as "genius" or "monster"; it simply violates the basic logic of power levels.

The culprit behind all this—the Blood Kun—had its countless eyes on its fleshy body that covered the sky suddenly widen in astonishment, which quickly transformed into a complex emotion that mixed rage, greed, fear, and deep bewilderment.

"How is this possible? How could a mere ant that has not even mastered the laws withstand my attack without being destroyed!" The will of the Blood Kun roared and echoed in the void, filled with confusion and disbelief.

He could sense that Li Xijun's injuries were not light, but his tenacious and abnormal vitality and the strength of his indestructible physique exceeded all his understanding of the "Diamond Realm".

In particular, the golden true meaning that was fighting against the power of the remaining laws made Him feel a sense of indestructibility and indestructibility.

Meanwhile, in the distant star system, in the world of the Anagard gods, within the Eternal Palace.

Otto, the god-king who was observing the battlefield through a special means, was also stunned in place.

The cold satisfaction on his face shattered like broken porcelain, replaced by extreme shock, bewilderment, and a rapidly spreading fear that even he himself was unwilling to admit!

"He's not dead—he actually survived? He withstood a blow from the Blood Kun Law—and is still alive!" Otto's voice trembled slightly.

The Cyclops revealed a "deadly future" through the Eye of Fate—a future where he teams up with the Blood Kun, the Water Saint is targeted, and...

A perfectly timed, decisive move—it actually failed?

Not only did Li Xijun not die, but judging from his condition—he might even have turned misfortune into good fortune?

"Why? By what right?!" Otto roared inwardly.

He couldn't understand how a seventh-level Vajra who hadn't even mastered the laws could survive such an attack.

What kind of physical body and what kind of life force does it have?

A chill crept into the heart of this god-king.

If even this can't kill Li Xijun—

When he truly grows up, masters the laws, and becomes a Martial Saint or even higher—

Does the Anagard race truly have a future?

Will the "Ragnarok" prophesied by the Cyclops be accelerated by this variable?

At this moment, whether it was Blood Kun, Water Saint, Wind Saint, Flame Saint on the battlefield, or Otto observing the battle from afar, all the strongest people standing at the pinnacle of their respective civilizations experienced a long-lost, intense shock in their hearts due to Li Xijun's "unreasonable" survival.

"Hmph! You cowardly wretch, leave me something!" Feng Sheng's cold snort broke the brief silence.

He and Yan Sheng moved at the same time!

The azure gale suddenly turned pitch black, like a cosmic undercurrent capable of devouring everything, silently sweeping towards the fleshy dome. Wherever it passed, space, energy, and even some rules were "weathered" away.

The crimson flames transformed into a boundless sea of ​​fire, the flames a pure gold color, the temperature so high that even the void was scorched and distorted, carrying an overbearing power that could purify everything, as it burned towards the Blood Kun.

Two powerful laws at the Martial Saint level erupted simultaneously, their power earth-shattering, causing the entire Blood Kun World to tremble!

The Blood Kun let out a furious and painful roar. Although its massive body was powerful and it had the advantage of playing on its own, it dared not confront the three human martial saints head-on.

The fleshy dome suddenly contracted and etherealized, transforming into a blood-red rainbow that stretched across the heavens and earth, and at an incredible speed, it fled towards the deepest part of the Blood Kun World, that absolute core domain composed of "Primordial Blood"!

At the same time, countless pieces of flesh and blood, as well as some body tissues eroded by the laws of wind and fire, actively peeled off and exploded, acting as substitutes and smoke bombs to block and delay the attacks of the Wind Saint and the Flame Saint.

"Sizzle—!"

"Boom!"

Despite the Blood Kun's attempt to survive by severing its tail, nearly a third of its terrifying body was still torn apart and incinerated by the laws of wind and fire. Its blue-purple divine blood spilled like a burst dam, corroding the earth and creating countless deep pits.

Ultimately, however, His main body successfully escaped into the Blood Sea at the core of the world.

That was his home turf, where he partially controlled the rules. Even if three martial saints joined forces, it would be difficult for them to break through and kill him completely in a short period of time.

Almost simultaneously, deep within the starry sea of ​​the main world's universe, two equally vast holy powers erupted!

One was a blazing, violent, pure white holy light that seemed capable of judging everything; the other was a purple thunderstorm containing the meaning of endless cycles.

The true forms of the Light Saint and the Thunder Saint manifested, their expressions cold and stern, directly locking onto the location of the Anagard divine world, making no attempt to conceal their killing intent.

"Otto, you dare to cross the line and attempt a sniper, you deserve divine punishment!" The voice of the Holy Light echoed through the starry sea like a sacred maxim.

"With thunder, shatter the conspiracy!" Lei Sheng said succinctly, the thunder surrounding him tearing through space.

The two martial saints joined forces and launched a massive, interstellar-crossing attack on the star system where the Anagard Kingdom was located.

This is a response to the fatal defeat of humanity's future martial saint, and also the highest level of warning and deterrence!

At the center of the abyss of nothingness.

The roar of holy war, the clash of laws, and the turmoil of the star sea outside all seemed very far away from Li Xijun.

His entire being was now immersed in his wondrous state and the sudden realization that had come to him.

The immense vitality brought by a lifespan of 30,000 years was so abundant that he had an unusual feeling of being "overfed," as if every cell was immersed in an ocean of life essence, swelling and about to burst.

At this moment, the destructive energy containing the power of laws within the Blood Kun is constantly wreaking havoc within its body, like a highly efficient "consumption pump," frantically extracting and burning these life essences to repair, resist, and even—temper!

Each instance of the erosion of the power of the laws and the confrontation with the indestructible true meaning of Vajra is like repeatedly forging his physical body and indestructible golden nature with the most intense flames and iron hammers.

Supported by immense life force, the shattered golden body tissues are reborn in a faster, more perfect, and more in line with the supreme mysteries of the "Indestructible Vajra Body".

He clearly felt that he had gained an unprecedentedly profound understanding of the true meaning of "diamond," "indestructible," and "bearing."

The microstructure of the physical body is constantly optimized in the process of destruction and rebirth, and the combination of the indestructible metal nature with flesh, bones, and internal organs becomes more and more seamless, as if it is really moving towards the legendary realm of eternal immortality.

"Destruction precedes construction—so that's how it is."

Li Xijun understood clearly, "Once my injuries are fully healed, with the tempering and insights gained from this experience, the Vajra Eighth Revolution, Ninth Revolution, and even—the truly perfect Vajra Indestructible Body—will all come naturally. It has saved me a lot of time in seclusion."

This is already an amazing achievement.

But an even more mysterious opportunity is unfolding.

Perhaps it was because they had experienced a true brush with death that their spirits unleashed their potential under extreme pressure;

Perhaps it is a mysterious feedback that occurs after the physical body and vitality reach a certain critical point;

Or perhaps, it was the power of the Blood Kun's laws, which contained a portion of the origin of "evolution" and "devouring," that subtly stimulated his perception of higher-level powers—

His mind, which had already reached the second level of the Thunder Tribulation, resonated with his understanding of the "Sword Chapter of Momentary Eternal Tribulation" at this moment with an unprecedented depth!

[Your "Fleeting Eternal Calamity Sword Chapter" level has increased from 79% to 100% True Meaning.]

It is no longer merely a "technique" or "method" to manipulate flow, freeze moments, or trigger calamities, but rather a true exploration of the deeper and more essential aspects of the river of time—cause and effect, which coexist with time and intertwine with all things!

In a daze, Li Xijun felt as if her mind had detached from her heavily injured body and floated up lightly.

He "saw" that his body was now entwined with countless thin, hazy threads that shimmered with various colors of light.

Some of these threads connect to distant places, some disappear into the void, and some are subtly linked to Blood Kun, Water Saint, or even more distant and unknown beings.

This is the line of cause and effect!

The invisible manifestation of the interconnectedness of all things and the entanglement of their destinies!

At this moment, he clearly felt that shortly after he stepped into the Blood Kun World, an unusually heavy, cold, and seemingly fateful force quietly enveloped him.

This force does not act directly on his body or soul, but rather, like the most skilled gardener, it begins to prune the causal lines around him that represent future possibilities!

It is not the kind of domineering causal manipulation in the novels of the previous life, where "words become law," "controlling someone's fate," and directly specifying the "inevitable death" result.

Instead, it reduces and weakens many other possible branch causes in a more covert and "reasonable" way, such as being discovered and teamed up with other martial artists in advance, accidentally discovering a safe secret realm to hide in, encountering a weaker mythical creature group and wasting time, etc.

At the same time, it subtly reinforced and guided the causal main line that ultimately led to "the discovery of the ancient relic bloodline" and "the conflict with the Blood Kun".

It's like in a road full of forks, the signs for other roads are quietly moved away, leaving only one signpost leading to the predetermined destination, so that you "naturally" walk towards that ending.

Then, at the most crucial moment, another "cause"—the sniping by the God-King Anagard—is pushed to influence the biggest "effect"—the rescue by the Water Saint, thereby achieving the final outcome of "the Blood Kun attack hitting."

"The power of the laws of destiny—moving cause and effect, guiding the future—" Li Xijun was immersed in this profound and mysterious realization, completely absorbed.

His soul seemed to transform into a swimming fish, moving against the ripples of time, carefully touching and analyzing the disturbed threads of cause and effect, feeling the rhythm of destiny and the traces of "pruning" contained within.

This provided him with immeasurable inspiration for understanding the ethereal third sword of the "Three Lives Cycle Sword Manual"—the "Inextricable Karma and Destiny Sword Chapter"!

Although he only glimpsed the surface, it had already given him countless inspirations and ideas about the "Sword of Cause and Effect".

Following that lingering, unusual aura of destiny, Li Xijun's mind continued to trace and drift.

Finally, in the last moment before his mental strength was exhausted and his perception was about to fade away, his "vision" seemed to pierce through the endless darkness and chaotic dimensional barrier, falling into an absolutely cold dark land where only massive root systems resided.

In the heart of this darkness, an enormous pupil, transformed into a chaotic vortex that seemed to reflect the countless tributaries of the river of fate, slowly rotated, gazing into the void, as if it too was "looking back" at something.

Below this single eye lies a massive silhouette, as if sculpted from gray rock, exuding an aura of ancient vicissitudes and destruction...

—That was a Cyclops!

The power of laws flowing around him was obscure and terrifying. Even a fleeting glimpse of it made Li Xijun's divine sense flicker and extinguish like a candle in the wind.

That aura—was at least three points stronger and more profound than that of the Wind Saint!

This even made Li Xijun feel that this giant was somewhat similar to that Blood Sea True Immortal.

A name, accompanied by records in the ancient murals of the Pantheon and fragments of Ganard's remaining memories, exploded like thunder in Li Xijun's collapsing divine consciousness: the Cyclops King Mimir!

That terrifying being who was once regarded as the greatest threat and nemesis by the Pantheon's King of Gods, the God-King Orog, and was eventually driven out by him and the other gods, and who is rumored to have already perished or fled far away.

Until he encountered the True Immortal of the Netherworld Blood Sea, Orogg never truly let go of his fear and apprehension towards this enemy.

Unexpectedly—

Not only was he alive, but he also lurked deep within the roots of the World Tree of the Anagard gods, and conspired with the god-king Otto to plot this deadly trap against him.

The divine thought completely dissipated, returning to the original body.

In the abyss of nothingness, Li Xijun suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes shone with a golden light, and though he was still weak, they had already ignited a sharpness and chilling insight that came from seeing through the fog.

"Cyclops—Destiny and Cause and Effect—Anagard—" he muttered to himself, each word seemingly carrying a chilling killing intent.

This life-or-death ordeal in the Blood Kun World not only brought his physical body to the brink of a breakthrough and allowed him to comprehend the mysteries of cause and effect, but also made him see the true mastermind hidden in the shadows.

Although, Li Xijun currently has no way to deal with this.

However, because of the other party's actions this time, the seed of the Sword of Cause and Effect has already been planted in his heart.

"I have noted what happened today. When I attain the Dharma Body, I will surely wield this sword and seek your guidance again."
