Perfect World: Dream Back to the Ancient Immortal World
Page 140
A terrifying aura filled the air, and the ground where Wang Heng stood began to crack, unable to withstand the power of the formation.
Although the preachers were shocked by the content of the conversation between the two, as the amount of information was too much and shocking, they came here to repay the cause and effect, so they would not hesitate when it was time to take action.
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from this astonishing formation, Wang Heng couldn’t help but be amazed. He originally thought that nothing in the world could threaten him, but he didn’t expect that there would be such a terrifying immortal formation.
However, for Wang Heng, breaking this formation was too easy.
The reason is simple. The core of this formation is composed of the supreme beings. As long as enough cores are destroyed, the formation will break.
“This is a great formation to destroy the world and kill demons. Any true immortal who comes here will die. You’d better surrender.” The Eternal Emperor shouted.
Wang Heng just smiled and responded, “The power of the formation is quite strong. After all, it is a stunning formation formed by ninety-nine enlightened people. However, it is a bit foolish to want to suppress me with this formation.”
“I admit that you are very strong, but isn’t it a bit arrogant to underestimate this formation?” said an enlightened person.
“is it?”
Wang Heng smiled and chanted a series of ancient spells.
“puff!”
Without any warning, the dozen or so enlightened beings who formed the core of the formation died suddenly on the spot. Their deaths were miserable, with their eyes wide open. It was obvious that they were both desperate and terrified before they died.
“you!”
The remaining supreme beings were so frightened by this sudden scene that their hair stood on end and they felt a chill in their hearts.
Chapter 164 The Seventh World
They are those who have attained enlightenment and integrated the Seal of the Heart of Heaven. Each of them is superior to all others, reigns supreme in a realm, and stands at the pinnacle of the human realm.
In the vast world to which they belong, there is no rival in the whole world, and it is lonely at the top.
However, in front of this creature with only a spirit, they were killed instantly.
In just a moment, the enlightened being who was once extremely powerful and in his golden years became listless, his flesh and blood and his soul dried up, and he died without a burial place.
The power of this curse is so terrifying that it makes all the enlightened people change color.
The most terrifying thing is that the dozen or so dead enlightened people are the core of the great formation of destroying the world and slaying demons. After the formation is activated, all the core points will be protected, and the defense power is amazing. Even if a real immortal comes, it may take a while to break through.
But Wang Heng’s curse is different. It uses the power of cause and effect as a medium, ignores defense, and falls directly on living beings. They can only resist it with their bodies and souls.
However, the huge gap in strength meant that these enlightened people were unable to resist the curse cast by Wang Heng, and they were killed instantly.
After witnessing this scene from afar, the Eternal Emperor was stunned and felt a chill in his heart.
He thought that Wang Heng’s strength would be amazing. After all, he had lived for more than 200,000 years in the Dharma Ending Age, which was beyond common sense. Therefore, the Eternal Heavenly Emperor mobilized all kinds of cause and effect, gathered ninety-nine enlightened people, and formed a great formation to destroy the world and kill demons to deal with Wang Heng.
But he didn’t expect Wang Heng’s strength to be so exaggerated. He stood there without moving, but cursed to death more than a dozen enlightened people just by moving his mouth. The great formation of destroying the world and killing demons collapsed on its own, becoming a joke.
“This man used his ultimate weapon, a forbidden secret technique. He cannot use it continuously. Fellow Taoists, please fill in the gap quickly and activate the formation to kill the demon while he is still taking a break.”
The dazed enlightened ones reacted immediately after hearing the words, and more than a dozen figures filled the gap in the formation in a flash.
Afterwards, the world-destroying and demon-slaying formation was restarted, emitting an aura of destruction.
The ninety-nine enlightened beings regained their confidence and burst out together, continuously injecting their energy into the center of the formation, hoping to suppress this terrifying existence in one go.
Wang Heng sighed lightly. The power of the immortal formation was indeed terrifying. Even if a true immortal came, he would be slaughtered. There would be no surprises. However, using it against him was undoubtedly a wrong move.
“is that useful?”
He whispered to himself, then moved his lips and uttered an icy curse.
It was like a series of death-threatening notes, invisible and soundless, falling on the body of the enlightened person.
All living creatures affected by the spell would become stiff in the body, and their powerful spirits would be covered by black air and drained away at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“puff!”
Another dozen lives fell, dying with their eyes open and filled with resentment.
They just couldn’t understand why they, who were invincible and possessed the best energy, could be killed by a light curse from Wang Heng.
The great formation for destroying the world and slaying demons had become a complete joke, with more than a dozen key points missing. It immediately began to flash wildly and was on the verge of collapse.
“boom!”
After a loud bang, the formation was scrapped. The remaining eighty-odd supreme beings were horrified and had no intention of resisting.
The thirty or so enlightened beings outside the formation turned around and ran away decisively.
Are you kidding? He killed more than a dozen enlightened people with one strike without any shame or heart palpitations. Whoever provokes this evil star will die. In front of his own life, cause and effect means nothing.
Seeing that the enlightened ones he summoned were fleeing in all directions and in disarray, without even a hair of Wang Heng being touched, the Eternal Emperor became very anxious and quickly spoke out to stabilize the situation.
“Fellow Daoists, please stay. It is useless to run away. He will find you even if you flee to the ends of the earth. It is better to take advantage of our numerical advantage and besiege him to death.”
Unfortunately, no one listened to him. The sense of oppression from Wang Heng was too strong, which made these supreme beings feel terrified.
“You are right about one thing. It is useless to run away to the ends of the earth.”
Wang Heng nodded, and a black sword embryo slowly rose above his head. In an instant, the sky and the earth lost their color, and time and space seemed to freeze. Only this black sword embryo was slashing and pacifying the chaos in the world.
This was the scene where he used the Chaos Suppression Technique with all his strength gained from his sixth life of cultivation.
The sword energy spread out in all directions, piercing through layers of void and heading straight for the heads of those enlightened ones.
There were continuous roars coming out. It was the enlightened ones who were caught up by the sword energy and used their lifelong skills to try to resist.
Without exception, they were all killed by Wang Heng.
This sword technique is extremely sharp and is known as one of the three great sword techniques of ancient and modern times. It is a peerless technique that the Immortal King desires but cannot obtain. The Quelling Rebellion Technique that Wang Heng has mastered is an evolved version. The Dao spirit form has been extended and has an extra arm. It is more powerful and sharper than the original Quelling Rebellion Technique.
“puff!”
“puff!”
“puff!”
……
The escaping enlightened ones fell from the sky like dumplings, causing the ground to tremble and rumble.
“what!”
“Eternity, you have harmed us.” There was a supreme being who was unwilling to give in and howled to the sky.
From time to time, shrill screams were heard, the sky was raining blood, and there were many strange visions. All kinds of weird celestial phenomena emerged.
In just a few breaths, Wang Heng killed all the supreme beings who responded to the summons.
The hundreds of supreme beings who had just used the world-destroying and demon-killing formation with such great momentum had now turned into more than a hundred cold corpses. This crushing and disparity left the Eternal Heavenly Emperor speechless, and he stood there at a loss as to what to do.
At the same time, in hundreds of ancient worlds, the mark of the heart of heaven trembled, the aura of the Great Dao surged, and the avenue belonging to those who had attained the Dao collapsed, leaving behind a strong aura of the Great Dao, cruelly suppressing all living beings in the world.
The monks were shocked. This was something that would only happen after the death of an enlightened person. After their death, the great Dao stored in the Heavenly Heart Seal would collapse and turn into Dao marks that would affect this world.
This kind of extreme Dao mark has no solution and can only be smoothed out bit by bit by the years. When the extreme Dao mark is completely gone, the aura of the Dao that suppresses all living beings will disappear, and only then will living beings have the opportunity to attain enlightenment.
Hundreds of creatures in the ancient world were in an uproar, unable to believe that an accomplished person at the peak of his powers would suddenly die. But this was the fact, and the changes in the Heavenly Heart Seal would not lie.
For this reason, these powerful people from the ancient world joined forces to investigate the cause of this incident, fearing that it was a problem with the heaven and earth itself. Unfortunately, no matter how they investigated, they could not find out the reason. They only knew that the enlightened person left the imperial palace in a hurry and never came back.
At this moment, on the desolate continent, Wang Heng, holding the sword embryo of Quelling Rebellion in his hand, walked step by step towards the trembling Eternal Emperor, his face expressionless, his eyes filled with indifference and murderous intent.
Watching the god of death approaching step by step, the Eternal Emperor retreated again and again, but it was useless, the distance between the two was still getting closer.
The Eternal Emperor knew that he had been locked in and could not escape.
“Don’t come over here. If you take another step forward, I’ll die together with you.” He was panicked and completely lost the composure that a Lord of Heaven should have.
It’s not his fault. After all, anyone who witnesses the slaughter of hundreds of enlightened people will have their faith in Taoism collapsed.
“It’s my fault that I gave you too much freedom, which led to some unrealistic fantasies. You must remember that you are just a body of faith.” Wang Heng shook his head, the sword in his hand glowed, and he slashed out with a sword at a very fast speed.
It was too fast, and the Eternal Emperor could not see clearly. He only felt a flash of cold light on his neck, and the next moment, a line of blood slowly seeped out.
Also beheaded was the Eternal Heavenly Emperor’s soul, which was split into two.
After a long period of accumulation, he gained an astonishing amount of power of faith, which he used to refine a primordial spirit.
Unfortunately, he was no match for Wang Heng of the sixth generation and was crushed.
“No!”
The Eternal Emperor’s vision became blurred, and he stretched out his hands to grab around, as if he was unwilling to leave this world.
He was the master of the Heavenly Court, a powerful force spanning hundreds of ancient worlds. He had been cultivating the country for more than 200,000 years and was known as the Emperor of Heaven. He was extremely glorious, so naturally he was unwilling to fall like this. However, a surging feeling of weakness came over him, and he finally came to an end.
A generation of Eternal Heavenly Emperor fell in this way. He ruled so many celestial realms and secretly interfered with the selection of those who achieved enlightenment. He was extremely powerful. Even those who achieved enlightenment had to call him Heavenly Emperor when they saw him. However, he still died in the end.
“boom!”
In the heavens spread across hundreds of ancient worlds, the stone statues belonging to the Eternal Emperor of Heaven all exploded without exception, which indicated that the Eternal Emperor of Heaven had met with a calamity and had fallen.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the Heavenly Palace. After the high-level officials of the Heavenly Palace confirmed the death of the Emperor of Heaven, the horrifying behemoth fell apart in a very short time.
Wang Heng wiped out the will of the body of faith. The so-called Eternal Emperor had lifeless eyes and stood in front of him dully.
“This body is quite good. It has been tempered by the massive power of faith for more than 200,000 years.” He muttered to himself, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
It seemed a pity to directly destroy this body of faith. Wang Heng wondered whether he could use the cause and effect between this body and himself to escape the judgment of time.
He thought about it and kept his body of faith. Then, Wang Heng walked through the area covered by the Heavenly Court and eliminated the name of this taboo, as well as his statue and so on.
Only after making sure that the connection between himself and the Heavenly Court had been erased did Wang Heng stop and think about starting his seventh life. He found an ancient world and began to study it.
This research lasted for two thousand years. During this period, he repeatedly deduced the possibility of believing in the body’s replacement of death and created related methods.
However, the result disappointed him. This path was most likely not feasible and was a dead end. If he forced himself to go down it, it would very likely ruin his extraordinary Taoist achievements in his sixth life.
So Wang Heng decisively abandoned this path and used his great magical powers to grind his body of faith into dust.
The influence of the Heavenly Court still exists, but the figure of the Eternal Heavenly Emperor is gradually becoming blurred and fading in the hearts of believers. After millions or tens of millions of years, no one will remember that there was such a creature.
After rejecting the path of believing in one’s own death, Wang Heng began to look for other ways.
He thought of the formation, which could gather the essence of heaven and earth, the creation of the universe, and the luck of all living things… It could be used for both defense and attack, and was an unrivaled method.
If he could become a master of formations and set up a heaven-defying formation, perhaps it would help him start his seventh life.
Thinking of this, Wang Heng no longer hesitated. He moved out all the precious books on formations that he had found during his travels through the worlds and immortal ruins over the years, and piled them up to fill up the cave.
Next, he was so immersed in these precious books on formations that he couldn’t extricate himself. Sometimes he used his fingers as knives to carve formations in the air, and sometimes he walked out of the cave and used the mountains, rivers and land as a base to set up magical formations with extraordinary power.
