Chapter 135: Chapter 129: Incarnation of Escape One

"Alas."

On Cyan Cloud Peak, Ning Xunqiu gazed at the conclusion in the Celestial Derivation Volume and couldn’t help but sigh and rub his forehead.

"Where did it go wrong this time?"

In this life, he received overwhelming support from the Three Immortals of Jade Sky, attaining the proving path of the "Carefree Immortal" in a short time. Master Liuli perfected the divine technique "Jade Sky Streaming Light Galaxy," and Master Linglong Fairy generously sacrificed herself, expending her own "Dao Rhyme" to help him achieve Great Magical Power.

He meticulously schemed and incurred great karma of heaven and earth, ultimately becoming the "Ancestor of Loose Cultivators," enjoying the Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth, and finally refining the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," which was close to a Supreme Treasure.

By harnessing the power of this Supreme Treasure, he fully activated the complete might of the "Sword of Chaos," and managed to suppress two "Divine of Attainment."

A being like him is not a Great Dao Divine, but surpasses one.

He possessed the qualification to transcend the constraints of the cosmic chessboard.

Just one step away from negotiating with the Three Saints to end the "Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth," he was abruptly terminated by an unknown divine figure using a "Divine Thunder" at the last moment.

Ning Xunqiu looked at the Celestial Derivation Volume, reading the text after his death.

["Blue Radiance Heaven" and "Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven" escaped their Primordial Spirits from the "Sword of Chaos."]

[Rushing urgently to the skies.]

[A majestic and resonant voice erupted from the nine heavens above, echoing in the ears of all beings: "There’s an Otherworldly Divine invading, all heavens divine, rally quickly to resist the outside enemy!"]

...

"At this critical moment, an Otherworldly Divine invaded the Qingxu Realm... and my act of suppressing the divine was mistakenly seen by either Hao Tian or Cangtian as a mole sent by the other world."

Ning Xunqiu quickly clarified his thoughts, suddenly realizing why the "transcendent one" was so merciless, and he couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly, "Such coincidence, I ran right into the barrel? But I’m not a mole..."

He paused for a moment and started recalling the details of previous lives.

"Before this, the Celestial Derivation Volume had never encountered an invasion from Otherworldly Divine, yet this time, I only delayed the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth by several thousand years, and this happened? Clearly this wasn’t supposed to occur at this time point."

Ning Xunqiu furrowed his brows tightly.

"Strange."

"The Qingxu Realm is facing such great adversaries that it requires so many divine forces... Those divine foes from the other world, their numbers must be vast, or their power extraordinary beyond saintly, truly remarkable."

The Qingxu Realm opened world gates everywhere, recklessly conquering various realms.

The Ancestral Dragon was even more presumptuous, obliterating worlds as easily as fetching something from a bag, offending countless beings. Therefore, the Qingxu Realm was resented by the divine of All Heavens and Myriads of Realms, jointly they attacked; it was only reasonable.

Ning Xunqiu thought of something.

Dao-Protecting Celestial Venerable!?

The Nine Heavens dwelled in the Outer Heaven, their duty was heavyweight, they couldn’t lightly stay in the mortal realm...

Yet, without the Mountain and River Seal this time, to suppress the Ancestral Dragon, four celestial venerables from Profound Yellow Heaven, Blue Radiance Heaven, Ten Thousand Treasures Heaven, and Xuanling Heaven didn’t hesitate to reveal their true selves to battle in the Lower Realm.

Could this have ignited the other divine’s desire to invade?

Ning Xunqiu shook his head gently, his troubled thoughts instantly cast aside; such disputes at this level absolutely couldn’t be meddled with by him now.

The urgent task is to quickly refine the complete version of the Supreme Treasure "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."

Ding dong.

Just then, an appealing notification tone finally came by the ear.

[Congratulations, your turbulent life was rated a red life achievement as "Ancestor of Loose Cultivators":

"Education without discrimination, seeing all equally!"

"Under the Immortal Slaying Sword, do not mention the Celestial Mandate!"

You established a Dao Lineage on the "Purple Sky Immortal Island," fulfilled a grand wish that there would be no loose cultivators in the realm and anyone could attain the proving path and become immortal.

You’ve suppressed the Great Powers of the Dragon Race, protecting countless spiritual beings, widely teaching the Escape One Method "Cyan Heaven Great Sun Burning Qi Scripture," and half of Qingxu Realm’s spiritual beings all cultivated your dharma gate to enter the Dao.

You proved yourself as "Ancestor of Loose Cultivators," fully enjoying the favor of the Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth.

Your proving path Supreme Treasure "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," its power boundless, even top Great Divine Techniques users struggle to match.

With the "Immortal Slaying Sword," you severed a thought of the Venerable of Dao and Virtue and temporarily suppressed two divine, who attained the ultimate "Great Dao," with the Companion Treasure "Sword of Chaos."

Such accomplishments are unprecedented.

Your proving path Supreme Treasure "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" received the Qingxu Realm’s Celestial Dao’s blessing, transformed into "Escape One," entering the world with the power to shatter "Celestial Mandate."

Congratulations, you obtained the Great Fortune of "Ancestor of Loose Cultivators" amounting to "100086"... error... unable to obtain... instead, you gained fortune - 86 points.]

[You received a red life achievement reward.]

[Would you like to immediately claim the red life achievement reward?]

...

"One hundred thousand fortune?!!"

Upon seeing the fortune points, Ning Xunqiu’s eyes instantly brightened, truly craving.

The Dao Lineage of "Ancestor of Loose Cultivators" developed over merely thousands of years, before self-proving the Dao, comes with a fortune of one hundred thousand.

Such massive fortune could instantly transform any heart’s desire into reality.

"Eighty-six fortune points will do too."

Ning Xunqiu looked at the fortune section.

[Fortune: 257/468.]

In this life, he wasn’t fully committed.

To attain the Great Magical Power for energizing the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," time was pressing, he spent thousands of years in closed-door cultivation.

For the Purple Sky Immortal Island, a loose cultivator Dao lineage he personally established, he could only adopt a laissez-faire attitude for now.

The Six Immortals of Purple Bamboo, his beloved daughter Spirit Pearl, and those twelve loose immortals who have attained the Dao, along with thousands of true cultivators, constitute the core strength of the Purple Sky Immortal Island today, each with their name and recognition.

For now, the fortune is sufficient.

The important thing is the red life achievement reward.

"Extract the reward."

Ning Xunqiu silently chanted in his heart.

[Extracting...]

[Congratulations, you have received the red life achievement reward — Escape One: "Immortal Slaying Sword Map·Prototype"!]

Swish!

An empty scroll suddenly appeared in Ning Xunqiu’s hand.

[Escape One: Immortal Slaying Sword Map·Prototype]

The Escape One incarnation possesses the great power to shatter the "Celestial Mandate."

It forms its own heaven and earth, with endless mystical transformations.

The Ancestor of Loose Cultivators, Qingyun Daoist, used the incomplete Great Daoist Divine Technique "Jade Sky Streaming Light Galaxy" as a foundation, bearing the Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth from Qingxu Realm to forge it with his three Lifebound Swords.

The first, Sword of Chaos·Unique. Yet to return to its place.

Within it lies the Sea of Chaos Consciousness, profound and boundless, comparable to a Great Dao Divine. Once the primordial spirit falls into it, it is like a clay ox entering the sea, with no hope of escape.

This sword harbors no killing intent, yet it is of great malevolence. Without the "Great Dao Divine" residing within, the primordial spirit will be endlessly fragmented, and once one loses their name, becoming part of the "Consciousness World" as "flowers, birds, insects, and fish," there’s no day of return.

The second, Sword of Freedom·Unique. Yet to return to its place.

The Divine Sword has spirituality, named "Ming Yue," who comprehended the "True Understanding of Sword Dao" atop Cyan Cloud Peak, merging the true intent of ten thousand swords into one, with sword Dao divine techniques astonishing the world. In one breath, it can unleash thirty-six thousand swords, making it hard to escape the doom of disintegration, no matter how strong the flesh body.

Only those with great magical power, the "Great Divine Power Users," can withstand its edge.

The third, Immortal Slaying Sword·Unique. Yet to return to its place.

This sword is forged by condensing the "nineteen points" of tribulation Qi from the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, and further cast in "Gold," as a Lifebound Spirit Weapon, with boundless power. A wisp of tribulation Qi can annihilate spirituality, and those of the True Immortal stream, upon contact, would instantly collapse, body and Dao vanishing.

Only those who have attained the "Taiyi Dao Fruit" can lightly touch its blade.

Once the three swords are unleashed.

Immortals, gods, demons, humans, ghosts, and devils, all turn to dust and smoke instantly upon entering the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."

...

Ning Xunqiu held the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map·Prototype," utterly satisfied.

This had always been his intention; time is insignificant to the divine, yet to him, it is a race against the clock.

The Celestial Derivation Volume "Reverse Cause and Effect" — first "loan," then "payback."

He had poured his lifetime of effort into the Celestial Derivation Life Record, only to be able to craft this "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" capable of activating the "Sword of Chaos."

The path to attaining the Great Dao in the Qingxu Realm is arduous, making one balk at the thought of spending billions of years acquiring the Dao.

But perfecting the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" is relatively simpler.

With this guardian treasure, he can directly confront the "divine beings." If he fails once, he still has a chance in a hundred lifetimes to try and perfect it.

The path has finally opened.

Ning Xunqiu slowly fused the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" into the depths of his primordial spirit, nurturing it with care. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

In an instant, the "Jade Sky Streaming Light Galaxy" entwined around his primordial spirit seemed to sense something, merging into the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," augmenting its power with a majestic aura.

Within the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," a jet-black obelisk stood solemnly at the end of the Star River, with a tiny fissure on it, like a gateway to another vast Consciousness World.

Sword of Chaos, return to your place.

The primordial spirit, holding the Great Seal, sat upright upon the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."

Boom!

The Spiritual Acupoint Heaven and Earth suddenly expanded.

But the "magical power" used to open up the chaos was pitifully scarce, like a trickling brook, quickly drying up and unable to sustain any longer.

"Though the Dao practice advances by leaps and bounds, with the shortage of magical power... thousands of years of cultivation hardly suffice to fill this enormous chasm." Ning Xunqiu’s primordial spirit furrowed his brow, contemplating in his mind,

"It seems I must seek Master Linglong’s assistance for my cultivation."

Although the supreme treasure "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" holds boundless power, with its currently feeble magical power, he could only passively endure its protection, unable to actively wield its true might.

In the book, even upon attaining the "Carefree Immortal" realm, he faced the predicament of insufficient magical power, but only because "Linglong Immortal Venerable" generously aided him with all she could.

How else could he have successfully suppressed those two powerful "Great Dao Divines"?

But fortunately, the "Innate Divine" has a pure nature, straightforward desires, and emotions expressed vividly, not one with deep-seated schemes, easy to approach.

Simply treat them with sincerity.

Do not let them down.

Ning Xunqiu slowly opened his eyes, shifting his gaze to the side, seeing the sword transformed from "Dongfang Mingyue," silently floating in the air, practicing quietly.

He did not incorporate the current "Dongfang Mingyue" into the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."

"The Immortal Slaying Sword Map, three swords are unique, but it lacks that Immortal Slaying Sword which annihilates spirituality, and I can’t obtain it now; it’s still in the hands of the Ancestral Dragon... and the Sword of Chaos harbor no killing intent, yet it’s hard to destroy the divine."

Ning Xunqiu thought for a moment, opened the thick Celestial Derivation Volume, and found the Demon Sword Life.

...
