Fantasy: I, the Great Celestial Venerable of the Dao

Dao Xuan seemed to have no bottlenecks, and each time he went into seclusion, he made a huge breakthrough.

Every time I leave the country, my understanding is refreshed.

Now he stands at the pinnacle of the Celestial Realm, overlooking the eternal geniuses!

Countless people are anticipating and speculating:

Can he go further? Can he reach the top of the Celestial Immortal Stele?

To become the leader among the billions of celestial beings in all the myriad realms?

However, just as this expectation reached its peak—

"boom!!!"

The familiar roar of the heavens and earth exploded once again without warning.

Dark clouds instantly covered the entire sky.

The laws of nature trembled violently, and spiritual energy surged wildly like a madman, growing at an astonishing rate.

The expressions of all the powerful figures changed drastically. This new world they had arrived in was far more powerful than the world of Dou Qi!

Terrifyingly powerful!

Several hours later, the spatial fusion was completed.

All the powerful beings above the Celestial Immortal level simultaneously looked towards the east of the Dou Qi Continent, their pupils shrinking sharply.

There, a vast and boundless new continent stretched out, even larger than the Divine Land and the Dou Qi Continent combined.

It is slowly solidifying from the void.

However, what is chilling is that the sky above that continent is shrouded in an endless, thick, and unyielding crimson!

That wasn't sunset, nor was it red clouds; it was a tangible aura of slaughter.

A blood curtain formed from boundless resentment and billions of dead energies!

The entire continent seemed to be submerged in a sea of ​​blood.

Even across vast distances, one could smell that nauseatingly sweet, fishy odor.

"Quickly! Send someone to investigate! Immediately!" Donghua Dijun's voice was unusually urgent.

"Move out all spies! At any cost!" Gu Yuan's face was ashen.

"Prepare for war! The entire clan, prepare for war!" the Soul Emperor roared as he gave the order.

Just as the various forces were reacting, a chilling sound rang out across the blood-red continent, sending shivers down the spines of all living beings.

"Hehehe..."

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

"Roar—! Awooo—!"

That wasn't language, but the excited hissing, the hungry howling, and the cruel laughter of countless monsters!

The sounds came in layers, surging from the depths of the continent like a tide, converging into a terrifying torrent of sound!

Even through the newly formed continental barrier, the sound still pierced through the void.

It sent chills down the spines of all living beings on the edge of the vast land of China and the Dou Qi Continent, causing their hearts to stop!

Immediately afterwards, all the Celestial Immortals witnessed a scene that chilled them to the bone.

On the Crimson Continent, endless monsters surged like a black tide, covering the sky and connecting the earth, with no end in sight!

They come in all shapes and sizes: some look like ferocious insects magnified a thousand times, their carapaces gleaming with a metallic sheen.

There are also all sorts of monsters with bony wings on their backs, horns on their heads, scales covering their bodies, and venomous breath...

They seem to lack intelligence and only know how to kill!

Meanwhile, in the westernmost part of the continent, some surviving creatures are fleeing frantically.

There were cultivators flying on swords, their sword light dimmed, their Daoist robes stained with blood;

There were knights in tattered armor; there were ragged mortals; and even strange men in bizarre clothes with short hair, wielding fire-breathing iron pipes to bring up the rear...

Not only humans, but also many other races.

They were fleeing, desperately fleeing westward, to the border between the New World and the world of Dou Qi, their only way to survive.

But the monster is faster.

Once caught, whether a cultivator or a mortal...

Whether human or alien, they were instantly submerged, torn apart, and devoured by the black tide.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere, severed limbs fell like rain, and no remains were left.

Several powerful beings at the Celestial Immortal level attempted to cover the retreat by burning their own essence.

It burst forth with dazzling light, but was then besieged by several terrifying figures that rushed out from the monster horde.

It was a giant eight-armed troll a thousand feet tall, a bone dragon with wings that blotted out the sky, a lava behemoth whose body flowed with molten lava.

In just three breaths, those celestial beings turned into a pool of blood and mud, their primordial spirits even being devoured!

The whole world fell silent.

All the celestial beings who witnessed this scene understood one thing.

Where did that thick, unyielding crimson color in the sky above that continent come from?

That was the blood of hundreds of millions of lives, staining the sky red!

Those are the pent-up resentment of endless wandering souls, clouds formed from their grief!

That was the deathly silence after the apocalypse, shrouded in a curtain of darkness!

Anger burned in the hearts of every strong person, but was quickly suppressed by cold reason.

Because everyone has realized a cruel truth:

Those monsters... just like sharks that have smelled blood, are surging towards the Dou Qi Continent!

The black tide has begun to crash against the barrier between the two realms!

What should I do?

Almost simultaneously, the gazes of all the powerful figures turned toward the vast land of Shenzhou and toward the direction of Qingyun Sect.

They turned their attention to the one who ranked third on the Celestial Immortal Stele and who could suppress Chonglou with a single palm strike.

Three breaths later, all parties made their decisions.

Gu Yuan and the Soul Emperor exchanged a glance, simultaneously tearing through space, their voices resounding throughout the entire clan:

"All Battle Saints and Battle Venerables of the Ancient Clan (Soul Clan), follow me to the eastern border! This battle is a matter of survival!"

In the Three Lives World, Emperor Donghua rises, his imperial might overwhelming:

"By imperial decree: All the high gods of the Celestial Race and all cultivators above the Immortal Realm in the Four Seas and Eight Desolations shall follow me on this expedition!"

"Extraterrestrial demons who dare to invade our realm will be punished, no matter how far they are!"

The God Mo Yuan raised the Xuanyuan Sword, and the sword rang out like a dragon.

"Disciples of Kunlun Ruins, heed my command: Form the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and follow me—to slay the demon!"

Deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, the Beast God emerged from his cave, followed by countless ferocious beasts, their malevolent aura soaring to the heavens.

"My lads, it's time to hunt!"

Let those monsters know who the real predator is!

魔州

Chonglou polished the dark red demonic blade, his crimson pupils gleaming with a bloodthirsty and excited light.

"Demon lads, follow me—kill!"

Let all the heavens and myriad realms know that my demon race is also a part of this world!

There is no choice, no room for retreat, and no room for compromise.

Those monsters must be kept firmly outside the Dou Qi Continent!

We must not let them flood into the Dou Qi Continent!

Otherwise, if this monstrous horde that has destroyed an entire world were to flood in...

That will be the true end of the world, the beginning of the darkest era since the merging of all the heavens and myriad realms!

Qingyun Gate, by the Heavenly Pool.

Dao Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

Yin and Yang intertwined in his eyes, and the Tai Chi diagram slowly unfolded behind him.

Covering the entire Tongtian Peak, it slowly rotates, each rotation resonating with the laws of the universe.

He looked eastward, his gaze piercing through the vast void, across mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, and saw that blood-red continent.

I saw the endless black tide of monsters.

I saw those creatures that were fleeing, desperate, yet still struggling to survive.

We've also seen the actions of various forces!

"Finally...is it here?"

Dao Xuan murmured to himself, his voice calm, yet it sent tremors through the entire Qingyun Mountain Range.

He stood up, his Taoist robe fluttering even without wind.

Behind him, Wan Jianyi held the Zhuxian Sword in his arms, its sword energy soaring into the sky;

Cangsong, Zeng Shuchang, and other high-ranking members of Qingyun gathered, their faces grim.

All the Qingyun disciples drew their swords, their swords flashing like a forest, their fighting spirit soaring like a rainbow.

"Disciples of Qingyun Sect, heed my command!"

Dao Xuan's voice, like the tolling of a heavenly bell, resounded throughout the mountain gate:

"Extraterrestrial demons have invaded my homeland. This battle is not for supremacy, nor for personal gain, but solely for..."

Protect the flame of our human race, safeguard the clarity of our world.
