Yunhua's abdomen was instantly cleaved open, and blood spurted out.
However, the Great Dream God was somewhat bewildered. His sneak attack was purely intended to completely sever the opponent's body, but now it had only cut open this small part.
"Oh no, he has cultivated a protective divine power." The Great Dream God realized this in an instant and immediately prepared to pursue him further.
However, something even more shocking happened to the Great Dream God: the severed part of the divine body and the gushing blood instantly flowed backward and returned to the other party's body.
This scene was like time flowing backwards, and looking at him sitting there, it was as if he hadn't been injured at all. His recovery speed was just too fast, ridiculously fast!
"What kind of divine power is this? There can't possibly be such a divine power in the Three Realms. How is this recovery speed possible?" The Great Dream God was shocked. This recovery speed was too terrifying.
"boom!"
The moment Yunhua was injured, a layer of golden light with a hint of black appeared on his fingertips. This was the result of using the power of fire and the power of sword at the same time. He countered the moment the Great Dream God injured him.
Yunhua's attack was too fast, especially since the Great Dream God was still in shock at the terrifying speed at which Yunhua's injuries were recovering.
"Not good!" The Great Dream God suddenly awoke from his dream, but it was too late. Yun Hua's sword finger had already pierced through his brow.
The sharpness of the sword and the ferocity of the fire erupted in an instant.
"boom!"
With a soft sound, the body of the Great Dream God dissipated like dust, his soul and divine body instantly turned to dust by Yunhua's flames.
"You're courting death by ambushing me!" Yunhua said leisurely, without even glancing at the corpse of the Great Dream God.
He dared to be distracted here because his great supernatural powers made him virtually immortal.
Don't underestimate Yun Hua just because he's only at the Heavenly God Realm. Even the True Gods and Dao Ancestors of the Three Realms wouldn't be qualified to kill him. At least someone at the Ancestral God level would be needed.
He could break through the defenses of the mere Great Dream God, but that was all. Such an injury was like a mosquito bite to Yun Hua; he could recover on his own without even having to actively activate his divine powers.
"What's going on!?" The other gods in the Great Dream Heavenly Palace noticed the sounds of fighting and all looked towards Yunhua.
"Calamity Fire, where is the Great Dream God?" a god roared.
"Kill them!" Yunhua stared at the group of gods. "Since you're all in cahoots with him, I'll send you to meet him right now!"
Yun Hua flashed past like a golden rainbow, passing by the group of gods. Then, with a series of explosions, all of the Great Dream God's subordinates were blown to pieces, their souls scattered.
The Golden Rainbow of the Sun truly lived up to its reputation as the fastest in the Three Realms. Yun Hua used this escape technique in conjunction with his offensive tactics, and these celestial beings almost had no time to react before they perished.
"boom!"
Just as Yunhua had killed all of the Great Dream God's subordinates, the sky suddenly trembled not far away, and a large group of gods flew in from afar.
They were stunned to see Yunhua emerge alone from the dilapidated palace.
"Fellow Daoist, did you just come out of the Great Dream God's place?" a god asked.
"Are you also from Da Meng?" Yun Hua stared at the group of people.
“No, no, no! Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. We are not on the same path as Da Meng.” Another celestial being spoke up. “We noticed you when you appeared on our Thousand Star Island three years ago, but you seemed to have some enlightenment at the time, so we did not disturb you.”
"However, we discovered today that you are no longer where you were. We were afraid that you had fallen victim to the Great Dream's poison, so we made a special trip to check on you," another deity added.
Yunhua nodded: "I see. But don't worry, Da Meng and his men have all perished."
"Fallen?! So quickly?"
"This……"
The crowd was in an uproar. Everyone looked at Yunhua in shock. In just a short while, Da Meng and his group had been destroyed.
He died a little too quickly!
"Isn't it normal for someone to attack me and then perish?" Yun Hua said leisurely.
"Alright, I don't have that much time to waste here. I'm going to go and try to pass the test. If you don't have confidence in yourselves, then come with me; if you don't want to, that's fine with you too."
"Fellow Daoist, are you really confident you can get out?" The gods looked at Yunhua in astonishment.
"Of course I have confidence, but whether you trust me or not is up to you!" Yunhua concluded.
“Alright then, the next checkpoint is the Path of Ten Thousand Blades, which has ten checkpoints in total. If you can pass nine checkpoints in one go, then you might as well come back first, and we’ll go out with you then,” a celestial being couldn’t help but say.
Yunhua took one last look at the group of gods and said, "I will only say this once: those who trust me, come with me; those who don't, stay here. I have no relation to you, and this is the first time we've met. I can help you with something simple, but as for other things, you can do as you please."
With that, Yunhua strode off towards the outside of Thousand Star Island.
He wouldn't mind giving these strangers a push if he could, but it was impossible for him to do anything to please them.
Having already demonstrated his strength by killing the Great Dream God, if these people trust him, he will take them away; if they don't, so be it. There's no need to deliberately show any greater strength just to take them away.
Passing level 1026
The group of gods exchanged glances and then shook their heads.
Yunhua walked to the spot where they left Thousand Star Island, took one last look back, and thought to herself, "Not a single one is willing to come with me. But then again, I'm not Ji Ning from the original story; I don't have such a powerful background..."
In the original story, when Ji Ning met this group of gods, he introduced himself as a disciple of Bodhi. Even if these gods didn't care about Ji Ning, they would still give Bodhi face, so they naturally trusted Ji Ning and were willing to leave with him.
Of course, Ji Ning in the original work also played a significant role, as he immediately explained the situation of the Three Realms, which made the group willing to leave.
However, when Yunhua entered, the situation here had not yet deteriorated to the point of what it would become later; and most importantly, the deeper issues of the current situation in the Three Realms were not discussed with him by Dao Ancestor Chiming.
In this situation, he naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to blurt out something he "shouldn't know."
"Since no one is coming, let's get going!" Yunhua embarked on the final leg of his journey.
The Path of Ten Thousand Blades is naturally filled with an endless array of weapons.
The test on this path is simple: once you enter, a person exactly like yourself will be created, whether it is a divine body or something else;
The only difference is the combat style used; the guardians of each level use the magic of the Moonlit Pool world.
"I wonder what kind of opponents I'll encounter here, since I wield both swords and blades?" Yunhua wondered. He quickly stepped into the Path of Ten Thousand Blades.
As he entered, an opponent who looked exactly like him suddenly appeared before him.
"I am the First Guardian. Look at those sword and saber blades. Those will be the sword and saber techniques I use in my battle against you!" The opponent pointed to two weapons not far away.
"Those who use swords and sabers like me may not be able to coordinate as well as I do." Yunhua smiled, then looked at the swords and sabers not far away, and suddenly a set of saber and sword techniques appeared before his eyes.
This is a set of combined sword and saber techniques, containing the power of Wuji (limitless energy), which is extremely exquisite. Some of its concepts can even be incorporated into Yunhua's own sword and saber techniques.
But after carefully studying it, Yunhua realized that what he had learned in this level posed no threat whatsoever. Although this set of knife and sword techniques had its merits, it was far inferior in quality to his own swords and sabers.
Sure enough, after a short while, the man voluntarily conceded defeat, allowing Yunhua to advance.
Having passed the first hurdle, the second hurdle is next.
The swordsmanship and knife skills in this level were significantly stronger, but they were still no match for Yunhua, allowing him to pass the level easily.
Yunhua easily passed the third, fourth, and all the way up to the eighth level.
However, during the process of overcoming the challenges, Yunhua also saw many things clearly. This so-called challenge was actually a guiding process, guiding Yunhua's power of the sword and saber towards the fifth realm.
After extracting the essence of each level's sword and saber techniques, Yunhua's own sword and saber skills gradually improved.
Especially in the ninth level, the opponent's swords already contained a hint of divine essence.
Whether it is the power of the blade or the power of the sword, the fifth level is "God", the God of the Blade and the God of the Sword.
If the fourth level, "Heart," is about imbuing one's sword and saber power with a trace of spirituality, then the fifth level, "God," is about completely bringing power to life, making it possess divine charm, just like a living being.
The swords and knives in the ninth level greatly benefited Yunhua, allowing him to see the hope of mastering Wu Bao's swordsmanship and knife skills.
At this moment, Yunhua finally arrived at the final tenth level.
The opponent still allowed Yunhua to observe his swordsmanship and saber techniques first.
"This kind of swordsmanship and saber technique!? Is this the next level of mastery?" Yunhua was completely captivated when he first witnessed the swordsmanship and saber technique.
It was as if a whole new world had opened up in his heart, allowing him to master Wu Bao's swordsmanship and his own knife skills in an instant.
"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Yunhua opened her eyes again and looked at her opponent.
"You've broken through!" The guardian of the final gate exclaimed in amazement as he looked at Yunhua. "Perhaps you really can break through today. If you succeed, you will create history in the Moonlit Pool world, clearing all the gates in just over a hundred years."
"It's not 'if,' it's 'I will definitely make history,' take this!" Yun Hua didn't draw his weapon, but casually waved his arms, and sword light and shadow that surpassed the limits of the Heavenly Dao flew away in an instant.
With his swordsmanship and knife skills perfected, he sent the guardian of the tenth level flying with just one move.
"Congratulations on making history! The person who cleared the level in the shortest time ever!" The gatekeeper got up and congratulated Yunhua.
Having cleared the Path of Ten Thousand Blades, Yunhua continued forward and soon came to a huge island. On the island were lakes, each with a different shape and radiating brilliant light. Some lakes shimmered like gold, some flowed with flames, and some were like jade...
Before the island stood a silver-haired man in a gray robe, smiling as he looked at Yunhua.
"This is the last 'Fallen Moon Island' in Moonlit Pool. Calamity Fire God, you are the second god to come here besides Jueming. Follow me to choose a treasure; this is your last time choosing a treasure in the Moonlit Pool world." With that, the man led the way.
Yunhua didn't recognize many of the treasures here, after all, he had only been in this world for a short time and didn't know many things; he was just relying on his instincts to choose what was beneficial to him.
In a short while, Yunhua selected three treasures.
"The treasure has been given to you. Now follow me, and I will take you away from the Moonlit Pool world." The silver-haired man led the way.
Yunhua followed him onto Falling Moon Island.
This island exudes an ancient charm, and also a chilling aura. Upon closer inspection, one can discover that the island contains a terrifying divine power that sends shivers down one's spine.
A moment later, the two followed the mountain path to the summit, where a temple built of stones stood. Although the temple looked dilapidated, Yunhua understood that it was the core of the entire Moonlit Pool world.
"Release those gods you brought with you and have them place their hands on that golden stone tablet," the man said to Yunhua.
Yunhua nodded and released the people as instructed. He didn't bring many people with him, just those from the first and second islands. No one from the other islands was willing to come with him because they didn't communicate much and didn't trust Yunhua.
These gods were very excited after they came out; they knew they could leave Moonlit Pool.
Then, following the custom, they placed their palms on the golden stone tablet and swore an oath never to reveal any secrets of Moonlit Pool.
“You take them in, and then you place your palm on them,” the silver-haired deity said.
Yunhua knew the rules here, so he put away the gods and placed his palm on them. Instantly, a mysterious power permeated his soul.
"I swear on my life..." Yunhua began to utter her life oath uncontrollably.
A vow of destiny is an inviolable oath, the best oath for survival. No one in the Three Realms can make such an oath; only beings like World Gods and Chaos Immortals can make such a vow.
Chapter 1027 The Vow of Destiny
The vow was activated entirely by some mysterious power emanating from this stone tablet.
As Yunhua swore his oath, a thought suddenly struck him. He felt that the power of this thing was somewhat similar to the power of the Gate to the Other Shore, involving the cultivator's very destiny...
Almost subconsciously, he activated the mark of the Gate of the Other Shore. Instantly, the mark of the Gate of the Other Shore emitted a hazy glow, and then it devoured the power of this life oath in one go.
"Wow... I was just trying it out casually, and this thing of mine has this kind of use?!" Yunhua was also surprised.
Having been to so many worlds, this is the first time I've discovered that the mark of the Gate to the Other Shore can actually be used in this way.
"It's because my true self has become stronger, so this mark of mine is more powerful and clearer than the marks from the previous worlds."
Yunhua carefully examined the mysterious mark. In this reincarnation of the Desolate Era world, he discovered that the power of this mark was many times stronger than in the previous worlds.
The most likely reason is that his true form has already achieved the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level and is ready to break through to the End of the Path Immortal Emperor level at any time, thus further stimulating the deeper power of the Gate of the Other Shore.
"My life oath cannot harm me!" After making the life oath, Yunhua opened her eyes.
He also understood that after the power of his life oath was devoured by the mark of the Gate of the Other Shore, the oath he made was completely useless, like something said casually, without any binding force.
"Go into the temple. Once you come out, I will send you away from Moonlit Pool!" the silver-haired man said finally.
Yunhua quickly entered the temple.
The interior of the temple was very simple; you could see everything inside at a glance. Apart from an empty hall, there was nothing there.
"Om!!"
Just then, a hazy light suddenly emanated from the temple, and the entire temple emitted a deep blue light. Then, countless rays of light wrapped around Yunhua.
In just a short while, a cocoon radiating a deep blue light appeared in the temple.
After the silkworm cocoon was formed, a tremendous power also permeated Yunhua's soul—
"I swear on my life... After I become an Ancestral God, I must leave the Three Realms within a thousand years, go to the Heavenly Azure Palace, and tell the Guide that the World God of Beixiu was killed by the three divine beasts, Wujiao." Yunhua uncontrollably made his life vow once again.
However, this oath was completely ineffective against Yunhua. The mark of the Gate of the Other Shore exerted its power slightly and immediately swallowed up the life oath.
"If the mark of the Gate to the Other Shore is so mysterious, then what about the Gate to the Other Shore itself?" This thought couldn't help but arise in Yunhua's mind.
At the same time, a realization dawned on him: perhaps his true self would need to comprehend the things on the Gate of the Other Shore in order to accelerate his growth in the Immortal Emperor and Sacrifice Dao realms.
