Swallowing the Stars: Reboot, The Eternal Serpent!

Chapter 538 The Ultimate Path of Destruction

Within the Sith territory, in a hidden space.

An interesting scene unfolded.

The Jiang siblings and Ji Ning, like cats playing with mice, confronted the three ancestral halls, destroying the three protective towers with an overwhelming advantage, capturing or killing their lords, and then killing the strange life forms sealed inside...

Meanwhile, in the interlayered space undetected by the three, Jiang Zhe and Yier were watching with predatory eyes.

Thanks to Jiang Zhe's absolute authority on the Path of Truth, and with the blessing of the Chaotic Universe, Iyer did not see through Ji Ning and the others' disguise. Looking at them from all angles, the three were just ultimate Dao Lords with little time left, their true spirits constantly disintegrating and returning to the origin of the Chaotic Universe.

Whenever Iyer wishes, he can use the "Soul Devouring" technique to intercept fragments of their true spirits and send them to the Sith Chaos Universe to strengthen the origin of his own Chaos Universe.

In the end, Iyer restrained himself and did not make a move, coldly watching the Jiang siblings and Ji Ning drift away.

Jiang Zhe watched as Iyer returned to the depths of the Sith tribe's territory before leaving.

He needs to consider his own path and strive for more for this chaotic universe, so it is not yet time for Iyer to die.

For a long time afterward, the Sith spies abroad became much more restrained, no longer engaging in frenzied assassinations and intelligence gathering.

Because Iyer believed that he controlled the world of absolute rationality and that nothing in the chaotic universe could be hidden from him, he meticulously prepared various trump cards for the final battle.

It wasn't until more than 3,700 Chaos Eras later that the peace of the entire chaotic universe was broken.

A sudden and inexplicable crisis of great destruction looms over all the supreme beings and ultimate emperors. All the supreme beings and ultimate emperors receive warnings from the origin of the chaotic universe, which guides them to the source of destruction.

In the primordial chaos of the universe, in the small wooden house of the Celestial Food Supreme, the six Supremes and five Ultimate Emperors, including the ancient cultivator Jiang Zhe, gathered together.

As the ominous signs of destruction appeared, everyone looked at Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe rose from the futon and said coldly, "Gentlemen, the final battle to determine the fate of cultivator civilization has begun. The Sith race's first move is both a restraint on us and an opportunity for us ultimate emperors!"

"The Great Destruction..." Supreme Hongran muttered.

A hint of envy flashed in Supreme Bolin's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and suggested, "Then you should send your second primordial spirit to explore the source of the destruction. The preparations for the war and even the subsequent battles will be handled by your avatars and us. As for your true bodies, they can remain in the origin of the chaotic universe. As long as your true bodies are alive, no matter how bad the situation is, we will still have hope of turning the tide."

Supreme Being Erkong also stood up and said, "Leave it to me and the old man. If that Ultimate Supreme on the other side dares to make a move, we'll definitely let him taste the iron fist of the Source Walker Supreme, which is blessed by the origin of the Chaos Universe, hahaha..."

The old man was referring to the Supreme Being Hongran. The two of them, one destroying and the other causing and effect, perfectly matched the ultimate eternal path that Jiang Zhe had mastered. They both recognized the "Alternate Universe Pro Version" created by Jiang Zhe, and their life state was comparable to that of the Source Walker. With the aid of the Supreme Path, they became the Source Walker Supreme Being.

"You Netherworld, you have done enough for the chaotic universe. Leave the war to us. You should focus all your efforts on comprehending the 'Great Destruction' and strive to become the ultimate supreme beings as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Youming, Wansheng, Beiming, and your two nephews, you can rest assured and leave them to us."

"..."

The other supreme beings also spoke in succession, advising Jiang Zhe and the other ultimate emperors to focus on cultivation.

Not long after.

The three members of the Jiang family and Ji Ning arrived at the source of the destruction.

Looking into the distance... it was a huge silver-white vortex, larger than an ordinary domain. The gazes of the four ultimate emperors pierced through the void and could see into the core of the silver-white vortex. It was an ancient object comparable in size to a domain, with countless holes on its surface. What was inside could not be seen, but one could only vaguely sense endless danger.

The final emperor is one short, so Jiang Zhe naturally won't go in person.

He entered directly into the world of absolute reason, where the mysteries of the "Great Destruction" were laid bare before him without any concealment.

In the world of absolute rationality, when Iyer brought the "Source of Destruction" into the primordial chaos universe, its projection naturally appeared here. Jiang Zhe's will clone arrived in front of a crystal tower covered with countless secret patterns.

In the real world, the tower would be black, thousands of miles tall, with mysterious patterns flowing across its surface, making it unfathomable.

There was also a projection of the Sith Lord nearby, which Jiang Zhe could easily obliterate if he wanted to... Of course, Jiang Zhe glanced at the Impermanent Lord but did not do so. He had said that he wanted to maximize his interests.

With a thought, his will manifested directly inside the crystal tower.

Inside was only a vast expanse of empty space, with a black, void sphere at its center, radiating a frenzied devouring aura. The sphere exuded a "Dao" that was completely different from the chaotic universe.

At this moment, facing the source of the great destruction, Jiang Zhe's eyes flashed with silver light, and the "Eye of Truth" quietly opened, taking in all the mysteries within what he could see.

Countless flashes of inspiration surged through his mind like a spring, and the fragmented insights he had gained while peering into Iyer's projection gradually came together.

Jiang Zhe finally understood.

After all, he was on the right path. After comprehending the ultimate eternal way, he cultivated all the "ways" he could see to the level of a ruler and combined them with the ultimate eternal way one by one. The next step was the most crucial and the one that would bring about a qualitative change—connecting them with a pure will to destroy, which is the "Great Destruction"!

In the original timeline, Ji Ning's pure will to destroy was born when his supreme comrades were dying one after another and the chaotic universe was at its end. His killing intent soared to the sky.

When it comes to maneuvering at the level of will, it's back to Kang Chul's comfort zone.

By the way, the Three Corpses Returning to One previously allowed Jiang Zhe's will to enter a new level. Afterwards, his understanding of the Eternal Ultimate Heart Demon Path and the creation of the Eternal Ultimate Truth Path further strengthened his will as rapidly as oil being heated in a raging fire.

Heaven and earth were born together with me, and all things are one with me!

The light of will scattered into the "source of destruction," violently "possessing" it, experiencing the purest will of destruction, untainted by any subjective bias!

In a short while, golden specks of will emerged from the "Source of Destruction" and reformed into Jiang Zhe's figure. His body emanated an extremely terrifying dark fluctuation, and the annihilating Dao rhythm was exactly the same as the fluctuation emitted by the "Source of Destruction." In the eyes of Jiang Zhe's will avatar, a scene of the collapse and destruction of the chaotic universe faintly appeared.

Within the dark fluctuations, the five elements, yin and yang, time and space, light and darkness, wind and thunder... are all linked by cause and effect. And this cause and effect is even more concrete, which is Jiang Zhe's pure will to destroy!

One by one, the "paths" began to collapse and be destroyed, forming a chain reaction. A terrifying power was quietly gestating, which was the "Great Destruction"!

"The greatest destruction of destruction!"

Jiang Zhe opened his eyes, calming the dark fluctuations surrounding his protective will.

"Indeed, the two eternal ultimate paths of life and destruction are more likely to reach the 'Great Destruction' and 'Great Life' than other eternal ultimate paths."

That's right, Jiang Zhexian is likely to be the first to break through to the ultimate supreme realm through the "Path of Destruction".

Having grasped the meaning of "Great Destruction," the projection of "Source of Destruction" before him was no longer of any use to Jiang Zhe. His will avatar dissipated without any lingering attachment, and his consciousness returned to the real world.

Ancient cultivator Jiang Zhe emerged from the chaotic origin of the universe and returned to the nascent form of his own universe of truth.

"The Five Elements, Yin and Yang, time and space, wind and thunder, light and darkness... all turn into 'Great Destruction,' which is the return to oneness. Then the source of destruction erupts, giving rise to two, three, and all things, nurturing life, which is 'Great Life.'"

Jiang Zhe murmured to himself, beginning to nurture life within his "Great Destruction Path," waiting for the life force to grow stronger and stronger until it finally erupted.

The real world.

Orianna and the other three ultimate emperors all wore wide black robes to conceal their features. Although this was somewhat self-deceptive, they hoped that the Sith might become arrogant and fail to investigate their identities. They could keep it a secret for as long as possible.

After easily eliminating the supreme-level strange life form guarding the nest celestial body, they continued their exploration and arrived at the core of the nest celestial body, where layers of nebula vortexes enveloped a black pyramid tens of thousands of miles high.

The power of the silver nebula vortex was so great that it stopped the four ultimate emperors in their tracks.

Jiang Yuanmo, that kid, does have some talent. He glanced at the silver vortex and suggested that they create a reversible vortex, so that the formless could absorb the other side and destroy its structure.

If it weren't for the fact that this nest of celestial war machines was constantly absorbing the origin of the chaotic universe, and that the sooner it was dealt with, the better, Jiang Zhe would have liked to use it to properly hone his son.

Every night, as the nested celestial bodies resolve their issues, the primordial chaos of the universe loses a portion of its essence.

During their conversation, Jiang Zhe affirmed Jiang Yuanmo's idea and directly transmitted the array diagram of the Reversal Vortex Array to them, instructing them to set it up.

After thousands of chaotic eras of cultivation, all three aspects have been perfected, with no weaknesses. The only thing missing is to push open the door to the "Great Destruction".

The task of setting up the formation was entrusted to Jiang Yuanmo, since the image of his Eternal Ultimate Path was the "Great Millstone of Life and Death," which was derived from the "Yin-Yang Life and Death Wheel," and perfectly matched the Reversal Vortex Formation.

Soon, the grand formation was set up, and its continuous penetration greatly weakened the power of the nebula vortex, forcibly blocking its devouring by the origin of the chaotic universe.

The four arrived at the black pyramid at the core of the nebula vortex, each using their escape techniques to enter. They found the "Source of Destruction," sat cross-legged around it, and devoted themselves to its study.

Inside the massive Hall of Light, in the Sith territory.

The great Iyer sat at the highest point of the hall, barefoot and dressed in a gray robe. Even after receiving bad news from the Lord of Impermanence, his gaze remained gentle.

"Has the Nest of Destruction been cracked by the cultivator civilization? It seems I underestimated them. However, being able to hold off four of their Supreme-level warriors is already quite good. Now that the simplest method has failed, let's fight! Let's begin the final war!"

Poor Iyer hadn't realized that what he saw in the world of absolute rationality was exactly what Jiang Zhe wanted him to see.

Even those who hold the same eternal and ultimate truth can have differences!

With Iyer's command, eighteen mysterious spaces in the chaotic universe opened one after another, and countless warships flew out, sending countless warriors to various places to begin the final war.

However... the battle lines have just been set up, and the two armies are facing off.

boom!

The boundless vitality nurtured within the "Great Destruction Path" in Jiang Zhe's mind erupted.

Everything was destroyed; all the dark fluctuations vanished.

Only the most dazzling and surging vitality remained, boundless vitality bursting forth in all directions, like the Big Bang of the cosmic singularity, naturally giving rise to time and space, the differentiation of yin and yang, the circulation of the five elements, the intertwining of wind and thunder... Finally, a trace of cause and effect appeared, the boundless vitality was touched, and under the connection of cause and effect, the paths became entangled, and vitality evolved into life...

The world is born!

Once upon a time, the "paths" that dominated the world were all upgraded to the eternal ultimate path with the explosion of life force, and then all returned to oneness.

The Supreme Ultimate Path of Destruction has been achieved!

Now, whenever Jiang Zhe wants, the Eternal Flower on the towering Dao Tree will wither, and a fruit will be born, grow, and become more and more like a human, emanating a vast and destructive intent, eventually becoming exactly like Jiang Zhe.

Afterwards, endless energy is drawn in to infuse the divine body, transforming the divine form, expanding the world of the heart, and completely elevating the level of life to the ultimate supreme.

Even though the foundation of his current body is the eternal ultimate truth.

The primordial chaos of the universe descended, cheering and leaping with joy, almost instinctively urging Jiang Zhe to advance and refine it.

However, Jiang Zhe did not do that. After comprehending the ultimate destruction path of the supreme being, he stopped abruptly, and his life level remained at the Emperor level.

He has many desires. Even if this second primordial spirit truly enters the ultimate supreme realm, it should be through the ultimate truth of the supreme realm.

"Hmph, the war has just begun. Now that I have attained enlightenment, it's time to restore peace to the chaotic universe!"

Jiang Zhe directly entered the world of absolute rationality from within the nascent form of the universe of truth, arriving before Iyer's projection.

"Come, you creatures whose blood is stained with sin."

With a wave of his sleeve, Jiang Zhe moved the projections of all beings suppressed by the chaotic universe and possessing pure Sith blood, including the projections of rulers and supreme beings, from various parts of the world of absolute rationality to his front.
