Chapter 1324: The Return of the Heavenly Ranks
Nothingness, Reincarnation.
The 2 moves of the Supreme Spear Principle appeared in Ou Yangming’s mind again and again.
Nothingness, The world was in chaos, and there was no life here.
Gradually, life appeared in the world. They lived and reproduced, recuperating in the world, continuing from generation to generation.
From nothing to something, and from nothingness to prosperity.
This was a long process. In the end, the world gave birth to many lives. Countless races gave birth to powerful cultivators and immortal powerhouses. Behind this prosperity, they were absorbing the vitality of the world bit by bit. In the end, the world began to be overwhelmed.
Then, there was a cycle.
A cycle and a dream, just like the Great Wide World today.
Ou Yangming gradually understood.
He understood why every other era, a world would be destroyed. This was because the world could not bear the burden and needed a cycle to revive.
Humans and all things dressed up the world and made it lively, but they were also the burden of the world.
From Nothingness to Reincarnation, there was a process, which was Creation.
Ou Yangming gradually opened his eyes. His hands were jumping with golden light.
This was the power of creation.
During the process of establishing a divine kingdom, Ou Yangming had comprehended the power of creation and mastered the last move of the Supreme Spear Principle.
Creation!
When Heaven’s Destruction and Earth’s Demolition merged, the power of the profound meaning of extermination appeared.
Similarly, when Nothingness and Reincarnation fused, the power of the profound meaning of creation appeared.
Ou Yangming’s eyes sparkled.
In the vast universe, there were only 4 kinds of profound meanings. Now that he had mastered the ones of extermination, creation, and order, only the profound meaning of space-time had yet to be comprehended.
Given his strength, in terms of the profound meanings that he had grasped alone, he was equivalent to 3 powerhouses a half step to the Heavenly Rank.
Wutong’s divine kingdom had been opened, so no one bothered Ou Yangming.
Now that Ou Yangming had woken up, Big Yellow asked, “Lil’ Ming, were you alright just now?”
“I’m fine. I had some enlightenment just now,” Ou Yangming responded.
He raised his head to look at the sky, and 2 fiery red shadows flashed past.
“Red-feathered Bird!” Big Yellow cried out. He saw Lil’ Red, whom he had not seen for a long time.
“Haha, Big Yellow, you’re still in the second step. You’re too weak!”
Lil’ Red laughed out loud. Then, it transformed into a red bird and landed on Ou Yangming’s shoulder.
The great ancestor of the Phoenixes asked, “Ruler Ming, did you open your divine kingdom just now?”
“No.” Ou Yangming shook his head and pointed at Wutong. “It was my friend.”
After Wutong opened up his divine kingdom, he hid his aura. With his strength, he was no weaker than a powerhouse a half step to the Heavenly Rank. Even the great ancestor of the Phoenixes could not see through him.
‘It wasn’t Ruler Ming?’ The great ancestor looked at Wutong in surprise.
Soon, other powerhouses flew over. When they saw Ou Yangming, everyone thought that he had obtained the divine spark. Who knew, when they heard the answer from Wutong, they were shocked. Ruler Ming had given away the divine spark, and he had given such a precious thing to his friend.
Although they had not obtained the divine spark, the divine spark had still been obtained by a powerhouse of their Great Wide World.
This was something that was worth consoling.
The divine spark could take away at least 100 people. As long as they did not offend Ruler Ming, they still had a chance.
Soon, the Shanhai Continent again returned to peace.
After Wutong established his divine kingdom, he was not in a hurry to leave. He still had to wait for Ou Yangming to come along.
Ou Yangming did not want to enter the chaos so soon.
He still did not know what the situation there was like. He had to at least be equal to heaven to go there in advance.
This goal was not that far away anymore.
After mastering 3 profound meanings, coupled with his peerless supernatural ability and powerful body, Ou Yangming was confident that he could easily kill even a powerhouse like Chi Ming. As for the real Heavenly Rank powerhouses, he had never compared them. He did not know how strong they were.
Even from Chi Ming’s side, he only had a vague understanding of such powerhouses.
A month passed quickly once again.
The third divine spark appeared.
This divine spark finally fell into the hands of the Fire Worship Sect. They had 2 powerhouses a half step to the Heavenly Rank, the mysterious elder and Ruler Ying. They escaped from the encirclement of the Great Wide World unscathed and disappeared without a trace.
They did not open their divine kingdom, and no one knew where they went.
The fourth divine spark appeared.
It was finally obtained by a human powerhouse, but the powerhouse was only in the second step and belonged to the Divine Sword School.
This was the second divine spark obtained by the powerhouses of the Great Wide World.
The powerhouses of the first world were killed by Ou Yangming. Chi Ming of the Third World also died. The others hid and did not dare to appear. The people of the Fire Worship Sect also disappeared without a trace. At the moment, no one was fighting with the powerhouses of the Great Wide World.
The fifth divine spark appeared.
Nevertheless, no one had found this divine spark.
Even when the powerhouses of the Great Wide World had all been mobilized and searched high and low several times, they still could not find any trace of the divine spark.
At this point, all small worlds had collapsed.
After half a year, not a single one of the billions of small worlds had survived. Every day, numerous worlds were destroyed, but no one could stop it.
Following the small worlds, it was slowly the Great Wide World’s turn.
When the sixth divine spark appeared, in a remote corner of the Great Wide World…
The 5 mighty figures of the Heavenly Path Alliance stood respectfully. Their gazes were fixed on a white-haired old man floating over from afar. The old man’s gaze was sharp. With every step he took, the will of the world would retreat. This person was a powerhouse of the Heavenly Path Alliance who had returned from the chaos.
Dao Xuanji! A powerhouse equal to heaven.
Half a year after the appearance of the Immortal Path to Heaven, the Heavenly Rank powerhouses had finally appeared!
“Greetings, sir.” Several powerhouses bowed in unison.
Dao Xuanji’s gaze was indifferent as he asked, “Is Chi Ming dead?”
A person below answered, “Yes, sir. I came to the Great Wide World but didn’t find any traces of Sir Chi Ming. After that, I sent someone back to the sect to inquire. Sect Leader said that Emperor Chi Ming’s soul has been shattered. He’s already dead.”
An Emperor had died in the Great Wide World?
“Who was it?” Dao Xuanji’s voice was cold and carried a strong killing intent.
“According to our secret investigation, the person who killed Emperor Chi Ming should be someone called Ruler Ming in the Great Wide World. He’s also an emperor and is known as the greatest expert in the Great Wide World. Besides, from Emperor Chi Ming’s deduction, the treasure with the Nine-sworded Ruler should also be with him.”
After listening to his subordinate’s reply, Dao Xuanji raised his head and looked out into the sky. Suddenly, he locked onto a direction and spat out a single word.
“Kill!” A Heavenly Rank powerhouse could ignore the will of the world. With just the word “kill”, one could cross the entire world.
On the Shanhai Continent, Ou Yangming’s gaze focused. Countless layers of the power of order appeared in the sky.
A sharp light sword slashed over. The light sword crashed into the heavy wall and gradually disappeared without a trace. Ou Yangming blocked it without expending much energy.
Before the Heavenly Rank powerhouses came out, he had predicted this day.
Ou Yangming did not choose to leave. He chose another path.
This Shanhai Continent had countless laws of order. Even if it was a Heavenly Rank powerhouse, he would not be afraid. Furthermore, there was only one such powerhouse who would truly make an enemy out of him.
Dao Xuanji!
Ou Yangming knew this name from Chi Ming’s memory.
It was him who had ordered Chi Ming to retrieve the hand bone. If he came to the Great Wide World, it would not be strange for him to find trouble with the young fellow.
“Hey?!” Shock flashed across Dao Xuanji’s eyes.
A Heavenly Rank powerhouse could easily kill a powerhouse who was a half step to the Heavenly Rank. This was the suppression of a living being, and it did not require any strength. Despite that, Dao Xuanji’s one move could not cause any harm to that person.
“That place?” Dao Xuanji’s eyes were like primal chaos, able to see through the whole world with just a glance. “It’s a little odd.”
Dao Xuanji moved, and his body disappeared into the void.
At the same time, next to the Immortal Path, a white-robed man floated down.
He had a pair of sword-like eyebrows, and his aura was like that of an immortal. He held a silver spear in his hand.
“The Great Wide World, I’m finally back!” His voice was vast and long. “I’m back, but it’s a pity that you’re going to be reincarnated…”
He let out a sigh that seemed to be filled with nostalgia.
Dao Xuanji?!
The white-robed man looked into the distance, and his gaze turned cold.
On the Shanhai Continent, the powerhouses who lived here in seclusion saw a magical scene. The world began to glow with golden light, and all of the powers of order erupted.
Ou Yangming looked at the old man in the sky. “You’re Dao Xuanji?”
“I didn’t expect you to recognize me. No wonder you were able to kill Chi Ming.” The old man’s voice was cold. “Hand over the hand bone and come out to die. I can let your friends go.”
Dao Xuanji looked at Wutong and the others in the distance and threatened the young fellow.
“Haha.” Ou Yangming laughed, “Why do I feel like you can’t even come in? Now that the entire Shanhai Continent is sealed by me, you can try. If you manage to break in, I’ll return the hand bone to you.”
The powers of order in the world were what Ou Yangming relied on. He did not think that a Heavenly Rank powerhouse could break in.
“Break!” Dao Xuanji’s eyes were like sharp arrows. He stretched out his hand and slapped. Instantly, a vast destructive aura gushed out from his hand.
The world collapsed as if it was the end of the world. Numerous destructive auras collided with the golden light. The continent shook, and the powerhouses on the continent looked at the sky in fear.
‘Just what kind of existence is that person?’
The golden light dissipated a little, but the other parts quickly recovered. This move did not destroy the powers of order that Emperor Jun had left behind.
“Good, good!” Dao Xuanji’s eyes flickered with flames.
Being teased by an ant below the Heavenly Rank made him feel that he had lost his dignity.
“Today, I’ll turn this continent into a dead zone!” Dao Xuanji made a gesture with one hand.
At the spur of the moment, a voice came from the distant sky.
“Dao Xuanji!”
