Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses

Chapter 581: Chapter 576: Celestial Destruction God, Greater Cause and Effect

Looking at the blood-colored figure behind Long Qing, everyone from the Battle Court was shocked, for the figure’s aura was immensely powerful, especially the spear in its hand, which emanated an extremely dangerous aura that seemed capable of collapsing the entire universe.

Amid countless Dharma Aspects, the blood-colored figure stood like Mount Tai surveying the surrounding peaks, shocking even Long Qing.

In Long Qing’s mind, the strongest should have been Emperor Longxin. He had managed to manifest the figure of Emperor Longxin, which was that enormous figure.

Yet, Emperor Longxin appeared so weak in front of this blood-colored figure.

After mastering the Celestial Dragon Technique, Long Qing dared not casually manifest his Dharma Aspect, as he only had one chance. This was his first encounter with the blood-colored figure.

Somehow, he knew the name of this figure.

...

Long Mie!

Long Qing had heard this name before, the grandson of Emperor Longxin, the son of Long Jun.

He had heard Long Jun boast that Long Mie possessed the strongest talent within the Long Clan, but after seeing the figure of Emperor Longxin, he believed Emperor Longxin was the strongest.

Today, he truly understood how terrifying the strongest figure of the Long Clan could be!

Long Qing’s skin continuously cracked open, and blood incessantly seeped out; he quickly turned into a bloody figure, but his eyes were so bright.

With his own strength, Long Mie demonstrated power that dominated the current battlefield against numerous strong members of the Battle Court.

From afar, Candle Celestial Monarch watched Long Mie, frowning deeply.

Ten Innate Golden Immortals actually couldn’t destroy this Dharma Aspect!

What was the origin of this Dharma Aspect?

The Innate Golden Immortals who were casting spells were equally shocked. Their power was enough to destroy the universe, but they concentrated their mana together, trying their best not to affect the Heavenly Dao. Yet, the existence they targeted would suffer a more intense impact.

However, Long Mie’s Dharma Aspect easily resisted their attacks. How could they remain calm?

Long Qing struggled to lift his right hand, and in an instant, the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect holding the spear pushed forward, vigorously repelling several Innate Golden Immortals and causing airwaves that shook the Battle Court Light Path.

Almost instantly, all Dharma Aspects surged like arrows, rushing toward the Battle Court Light Path.

Long Qing was still performing the Celestial Dragon Technique, continuously manifesting Dharma Aspects, and joining the battle, while the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect continued to guard behind Long Qing.

“Everyone, retreat!”

A Great Cultivator from the Dao Court loudly commanded, and with someone leading, other hesitating Cultivators quickly retreated to observe from a distance.

The Long Clan’s Dharma Aspects, like a grand army, swiftly advanced onto the Battle Court Light Path, as more and more Battle Court Cultivators joined the fight.

Fang Xuan drew a sword, ready for battle, his gaze fixated on the blood-colored figure of Long Mie, his heart filled with astonishment.

A Loose Immortal could summon such a formidable entity. Was this the Long Clan?

He had always failed to understand why the upper ranks of the Battle Court insisted on completely annihilating the Long Clan, but now he understood.

Facing such an enemy, it was indeed necessary to eliminate them completely.

However, another thought uncontrollably popped into his mind.

How did these high-level individuals snatch the Battle Court from the Long Clan?

As Fang Xuan was lost in thought, a sword light streaked over his head, powerfully colliding with space, striking the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect, which still defended with the spear in its hand.

Two formidable forces collided, creating shockwaves that caused distant Celestial Spirit Cultivators watching the battle to vanish in smoke and dust, while Cultivators from the Battle Court side were protected by a force of destiny, spared from disaster. From afar, an energy barrier enveloped the Battle Court Light Path, defending against all impacts.

…

In Daoist Field of the Beginningless, within the courtyard.

Everyone intently stared at the Artifact Refining Cauldron’s mirror, watching the power standoff between Dragon Annihilation’s Dharma Aspect and Candle Celestial Monarch, secretly terrified at the immense power before them, where every existing being between the two seemed insignificant.

Furthermore, Candle Celestial Monarch’s aura could even reach into Celestial Spirit Great World; they were fine, protected by the dojo, but the outer environment trembled, a catastrophe for Mortal Spirits.

An Xin involuntarily looked at Gu An, noting her master was still calmly watching the battle, and she was puzzled.

“Master, why aren’t you taking action yet? This isn’t like him, and moreover, this calamity originates from Qing’Er, he certainly won’t stand by idly.”

“Could it be that Master has already planned a response? It must be so; Master is always like this, claiming indifference, yet always ends up intervening.”

With that thought, An Xin’s confusion cleared, replaced by exhilaration.

In her heart, her master had always possessed great compassion to protect all living beings, and she had witnessed it many times.

Even if Master wanted to leave, he would just disguise his identity and hide in another part of the world, showing that at heart, Master couldn’t sever his ties to this land.

Gu An stared at the image in the mirror, hearing the thoughts of the crowd, especially those of An Xin.

He felt both relieved and helpless.

He was relieved that An Xin had always trusted him, but he felt helpless because his image in An Xin’s mind was too great.

Gu An indeed had a strategy to cope.

This calamity, originating from the grudge and karma of the Long Clan, was different from previous calamities. It was a disaster of the Long Family, triggered by his Reincarnation Body, and he would naturally resolve it.

However, he would not do so as Gu An, but as Long Zhan.

In this calamity, he would not let the innocent die; the more evil the Battle Court behaved, the more it would provoke his desire to kill.

His pupils flickered with a peculiar purple-golden flame.

“Have you already joined them?”

Gu An stared at the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect in the mirror and muttered to himself.

He felt the aura of the Heavenly Dao emanating from the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect.

This aura was similar to that of the Celestial Spirit God and the Celestial Extreme God.

No wonder Long Mie could escape the karma of the Long Clan; it turned out that a stronger force was shielding him from karma.

But this time was different; Long Qing was using the karma from bloodlines, and as long as Long Mie did not change his physical body, the karma attached to the bloodline would still exist.

Candle Celestial Monarch, being in the late stage of Innate Golden Immortal Realm and joined by sixteen other Innate Golden Immortals, was strangely unable to defeat the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect.

Gu An was curious about what Cultivation Level Long Mie’s true self had reached now.

Additionally, Gu An noticed that these Innate Golden Immortals had a different kind of destiny aura from the Battle Court; they originated from the Battle Court, but they bore the destiny of other forces, more intense. This meant these Innate Golden Immortals had other backgrounds.

It seemed there were other calculations behind this battle!

Gu An began to look forward to the appearance of the Immortal Emperor.

As for getting involved in more trouble, Gu An was not too concerned; this battle would certainly allow him to reap a tremendous Life Span, and perhaps after some time, he would break through to a higher Realm.

…

On the vast earth, countless fierce beasts were slaughtering each other, the ground split open, blood flowed into rivers, and corpses were countless.

The fierce ground battle continued, but the Celestial Vault was extraordinarily bright, with stacked clouds making the Celestial Vault appear even more expansive.

A towering figure clad in Blood Armor stood proudly among the clouds. His hands hung naturally, his shoulder armor resembled a dragon, and his white hair fluttered in the wind, with a blood flower mark on his forehead. His face was handsome, but his gaze was so indifferent.

He looked down at the slaughter below, his expression unchanged, but the reflection of Long Qing employing the Celestial Dragon Technique flickered in his pupils.

His figure was identical to the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect. Next to him stood a long spear, the body of the spear covered in blood scales, the spearhead like the claw of a True Dragon, its tip refracting a cold light.

A figure leapt up and landed beside him; this was a Cyan-robed Daoist, standing on a red gourd, bearing an air of immortality and wearing a cynically amused smile.

“Celestial Destruction God, someone else is using your power again? How long will you protect them?” the Cyan-robed Daoist asked teasingly.

Celestial Destruction God’s expression remained indifferent as he calmly said, “It’s not exactly using; that’s their own capability.”

The Cyan-robed Daoist raised his hand and drew a circle in front of him, revealing an illusion reflecting the battle outside the Celestial Spirit Great World.

The Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect was so eye-catching. At its feet, a strong light gathered around Long Qing, who was continuously consolidating the Dharma Aspect.

The continuous Dharma Aspect assaulted the Battle Court Light Path, with Candle Celestial Monarch stepping over from above, continuously approaching the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect.

Those sixteen Innate Golden Immortals surrounded the Dragon Annihilation Dharma Aspect, endlessly displaying Divine Skills and Spells, shaking the entire universe.

The edges of the universe displayed twisting rainbows, the tremors were from the Great Dao.

“So many Innate Golden Immortals attacking a Loose Immortal, quite extravagant. Without your power, this guy would have died long ago. Does this still count as his capability?” the Cyan-robed Daoist asked, half-smiling.

Celestial Destruction God was silent for a moment before saying, “This is a Divine Skill called Celestial Dragon Technique created by my grandfather. It gathers all those with bloodline karma through the bloodline, allowing them to form Dharma Aspects to fight on their behalf. This child has summoned so many Dharma Aspects, his Life Span will be exhausted; this is his last battle.”

“Last battle? I doubt it; you always say this, yet you always end up intervening. Without your intervention, the Long Clan would have perished long ago,” the Cyan-robed Daoist shook his head.

To this, Celestial Destruction God did not respond.

The Cyan-robed Daoist continued, “It won’t be long before you can break through and reach a higher Realm. Your Immortal Position could be promoted, and if you could be transferred back to the Three Thousand Great Worlds, you would be able to protect your descendants.”

The reflection of Candle Celestial Monarch gleamed in Celestial Destruction God’s eyes, his gaze so cold, he watched Candle Celestial Monarch continuously destroying the Celestial Dragon Dharma Aspects, approaching his own Dharma Aspect.

“This time, fate might be hard to escape, with even stronger beings approaching,” Celestial Destruction God solemnly said, pausing momentarily before adding:

“No matter, with me here, the bloodline can continue. When I return, I will let these folks experience the most painful torment of the Great Dao.”
