Chapter 176: Chapter 104: The Celestial Will Has Arrived

Su Chen cupped his hands.

Chen Xuan drove the carriage, heading straight on.

In the distance, figures with obscured faces belatedly arrived.

Mr. Sword had arrived as well.

"He is stronger than you."

Mr. Sword looked at his arch-rival and said with a smile.

"Hah."

"What’s there to be smug about?"

"He’s stronger than you, too."

"Besides,"

"He practices my methods. You could say he’s half a successor of mine."

Old Demon Gujue sneered, retorting in kind.

Then, the two of them fell silent, their gazes fixed on the direction the carriage had gone, and beyond that, on the distant Zhu Country—the place where the battle against the heavens was about to erupt.

"Do you think he will win?"

"Ever since its birth, Celestial Will has sealed heaven and earth to maintain the stability of this World in the Palm, blocking the path to the true Human World..."

"It even made the people suffer, all so their Human Spirit Energy would return to the world..."

"The Great Yu Immortal Ancestor, the strongest Qi Cultivation Immortal, was defeated. He only follows the path of Mortal Cultivation. Can he really win?"

Mr. Sword spoke.

Even with his proud and unyielding spirit, and his firm belief that Mortal Cultivation was in no way weaker than the Heaven-Reaching Immortal Path, he was still deeply worried.

After all,

Even the strongest Qi Cultivation Immortal, who had touched upon the Dao Platform of Foundation Establishment, had perished.

Much less,

A Mortal Cultivator who has only practiced for thirty-odd years.

"Sword Madman."

Old Demon Gujue said.

"What?"

Mr. Sword frowned, looking at Old Demon Gujue.

"Some people appear just to let you know there’s always a higher mountain, to let you know that your centuries of cultivation can’t compare to his few decades."

"He... is one of those people."

"Rest easy!"

"He will, without a doubt, slay the heavens!"

"You, me, the One King, and the Three Immortals... we’ve all reached the end of the road for both Mortal Cultivation and the Heaven-Reaching Immortal Path..."

"Here in this World in the Palm, there’s no path forward for us."

"But he is different."

"He... has only just set out on his journey. His road... is still long..."

"Even the Great Yu Immortal Ancestor, the strongest of the Qi Cultivation Immortals, was far, far inferior to him..."

Old Demon Gujue spoke, his expression complex.

The matter of the Extreme Realm was something that could not be discussed, not even with Qi Cultivation Immortals. Only those within the Extreme Realm could speak of it amongst themselves.

To think that this tiny World in the Palm could produce an Extreme Realm True Dragon, something rarely seen even in the true Human World... This must be fate.

It seemed even the fate of this world was pushing for it, supporting him, wanting the Celestial Will to fall, for the Immortal Arrival to occur, and for this realm to return to the Human World.

The carriage moved onward. Its wheels turned slowly, but they never stopped, not even for a moment.

「Cyan Mountain Peak.」

Su Chen retrieved Zhang Gui’s remains.

At the fishing harbor, Su Chen silently gazed at a new grave standing beside a cenotaph.

And so,

The carriage left the bounds of the Imperial City, moving beyond the range of the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Day formation that could shield them from Heavenly Secrets.

The heavens above once again cast down their gaze.

After a long while,

The carriage arrived at the ruins of Jinjiang City.

In the distance,

The Nujiang River surged.

Jinjiang City was long since dilapidated. Separated by the Nujiang River, the city that once had both northern and southern districts now only consisted of its main part: South City.

Here,

Su Chen lingered for a long time.

’He thought of the Cyan Sparrow—perhaps the real one from the past, or perhaps the false one of the present. Or maybe it was both.’

「At the same time.」

「Outside Jinjiang City.」

There was a Cyan Mountain.

At the foot of the Cyan Mountain, there was a pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, a group of figures in white robes had been waiting for a long time.

"Halt, Sword Immortal!"

"Our lord has been waiting here for you for a long time."

A leader led the other white-robed figures, surrounding the carriage and bringing it to a halt.

They were from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

They were a group born to serve Celestial Will in times of chaos.

At this very moment,

One being stood amongst them, surrounded by the others. It had no face, no form, no features—it resembled nothing more than an empty robe.

The carriage came to a stop.

The empty white robe spoke.

"Stop right here."

"Go any further..."

"Unify the world, and you will die."

Celestial Will had come in person.

Although,

It was only a projection.

But the person before it was worthy of such an action.

Because,

Before it,

The person in the carriage was an Extreme Realm True Dragon.
