119: Chapter 119 Azure Lotus Breaks Through the Realm, All Realms Prepare for War

The wind and snow in Black Stone City had not stopped for months, but the Green Lotus Secret Realm of the Guardian Academy was warm and cozy, and the Power of Chaos surged like a tide, lingering around the chaos green lotus at the center of the Secret Realm.

Bai Yunzhou sat cross-legged atop the lotus platform, azure brilliance flowing around his body, while the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection intertwined and wound around each other, repeatedly tempering his Meridians in an endless cycle.

The runes of the ancient dao-protecting Legacy flickered in his Sea of Consciousness, merging with the Chaos Swordsmanship to transform into brand-new Dao Laws that slowly took shape within his body, nourishing everything silently.

The power of the domain-protecting Spiritual Vein light barrier penetrated the Secret Realm barrier, turning into wisps of silver threads that burrowed into his Dantian, nourishing the chaos lotus seed and making it increasingly lustrous and plump.

His Aura fluctuated, sometimes condensing like a mountain and sometimes dispersing like flowing clouds, which was the crucial sign of breaking through to the Body Integration Stage, with his Dao Heart and cultivation reaching Perfection simultaneously at this moment.

Although the sounds of war preparation from the outside world were distant, they turned into a firm obsession that melted into his Dao Heart, and the thought of protecting the living beings of the Myriad Realms was branded into every wisp of spiritual power.

After countless days and nights, Bai Yunzhou suddenly opened his eyes, azure radiance bursting forth from them to shoot straight toward the dome of the Secret Realm, and the Aura of the Chaos Green Lotus Body suddenly surged, sweeping in all directions.

The pressure of the Body Integration Stage permeated the entire Secret Realm, and the Chaos pool water beneath the lotus platform churned, transforming into thousands of green lotus phantoms that slowly revolved around him, a natural miraculous sign.

He raised his hand and waved lightly, the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection condensing at his fingertips to form a one-inch-long qinglian sword, the sword body trembling and emitting a clear sword cry that pierced straight through heaven and earth.

Breakthrough successful! Stepping from the Void Refining Peak into the Body Integration Early Stage, the Chaos Green Lotus Body advanced to another level, and the Fusion of the Power of Dao Protection and the Power of Chaos had already reached the Transcendent state.

Bai Yunzhou stood up, the Aura around his body slowly reining in, but his eyes gained a bit more composure and firmness; against the Lord of Nothingness, he finally had more sufficient confidence.

He stepped out of the Green Lotus Secret Realm, the wind and snow at the entrance instantly dispersed by a layer of gentle azure brilliance, and the Disciples of the Guardian Academy all revealed joyful expressions upon seeing him appear.

"The Alliance Master has broken through!" The cheers of the Disciples rose and fell in succession, spreading along with the wind and snow to every corner of Black Stone City, and hearing this, the commoners all burned incense to pray for blessings.

Ling Shuang rushed over first, and seeing Bai Yunzhou's Aura was harmonious and complete, her eyes were filled with joy: "Alliance Master, you have finally come out of seclusion; the Myriad Realms have completed their preparations for war, awaiting only your command."

Bai Yunzhou nodded, waved his hand, and an azure light turned into a communication talisman, summoning True Monarch Tianxing, Sword Sovereign Hanbing, Master Cangwu Zi, and Zhou Zhiting to quickly arrive at the Guardian Academy to discuss matters.

Half an incense stick's time later, the four core figures gathered in the discussion pavilion beside the Green Lotus Secret Realm. The wind and snow were blocked outside by the barrier, and warmth filled the pavilion, yet the atmosphere was heavy.

"I have broken through to the Body Integration Stage, and the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection can merge and erupt," Bai Yunzhou went straight to the point, "Today's discussion will determine the strategy for the decisive battle against the Lord of Nothingness."

True Monarch Tianxing took out an astrological Jade Slip, light and shadow flickering on the Jade Slip, showing the exact location of the Realm of Nothingness: "According to the latest report from the Investigation Department, the Seal of the Lord of Nothingness is loosening, and he will break the Seal within the month."

"The place where he breaks the Seal is none other than the Abyss of Nothingness, the boundary between the Myriad Realms and the Realm of Nothingness. The spatial Seal there shattered long ago, making it the only entrance."

Sword Sovereign Hanbing took over the conversation, pointing his fingertip at the Jade Slip: "Around the Abyss of Nothingness, we have already laid down the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array, and the power of the eight Spiritual Vein guarding points can all be guided here."

"The Guardian Coalition totals two hundred thousand, divided into vanguard, center, and rear armies. The vanguard breaks arrays, the center resists the enemy, and the rear supports; all have completed assembly."

Master Cangwu Zi took out a scroll of array diagrams and spread it on the stone table: "My Cangwu Mountain, uniting with Disciples from various Array Halls, has laid down the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array, which can channel the power of the domain-protecting light barrier to bless the coalition."

"It's just that the strength of the Lord of Nothingness is monstrous, and the power of the Body Integration Stage is likely hard to match him. We need the Alliance Master to take the Chaos Green Lotus Body as the core and gather the power of the Myriad Realms to have a fighting chance."

Zhou Zhiting, dressed in silver-white battle armor with a stern Aura, said: "The dao-protecting grand general Seal has already drawn forth the coalition's Battle Intent, and the Yao Race iron cavalry and elites of various domains have all taken their positions, fighting to the death without retreat."

"Ling Shuang and I are willing to act as the vanguard, leading the frontline troops to directly strike the Void Clan vanguard and buy time for the Alliance Master to gather the power of the Myriad Realms."

Bai Yunzhou looked at the astrological Jade Slip, array diagram, and coalition roster on the stone table, determination flashing in his eyes: "You have all made thorough arrangements. In this battle, we shall take defense as offense and unity as strength."

"First, taking the Abyss of Nothingness as the core, Ling Shuang shall lead the Sword Hall elites and the Yao Race iron cavalry as the vanguard to specialize in attacking the Void Clan vanguard and severing their claws and teeth."

"Second, Zhou Zhiting shall lead the center army to garrison the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array, channel the power of the domain-protecting light barrier, resist the pressure of the Lord of Nothingness, and protect the coalition's main force."

"Third, the three vice alliance masters shall separately guard the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array, channel the power of the eight Spiritual Vein guarding points to reinforce the grand array, and prevent the Void Clan from flanking and raiding."

"Fourth, I shall sit at the core of the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array, taking the Chaos Green Lotus Body as a guide to gather the dao-protecting hearts of the Myriad Realms' Cultivators, transforming them into the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword to strike the Lord of Nothingness directly."

"In this battle, we do not seek a quick victory, but rather a desperate defense. With the united power of the Myriad Realms, we shall Seal the Lord of Nothingness and return peace to the Star Domain!"

Everyone responded in unison, their voices sonorous, overpowering the sound of wind and snow outside the pavilion, and the strategy for the decisive battle was thus finalized.

After the discussion ended, streaks of military orders turned into flowing light, spreading to all corners of the Myriad Realms, and the bell of the Guardian Academy once again resounded across the Star Domain, carrying the signal of the decisive battle and echoing through heaven and earth.

The commoners of Black Stone City spontaneously took to the streets to see off the coalition. The elders offered treasured healing pills, the women handed over cold-resistant battle armor, and the children held up dao-protecting flags.

"Protect the Star Domain, and return safely!" The shouts of the commoners echoed in the wind and snow, and the two hundred thousand Guardian Coalition members wore silver-white battle armor, held dao-protecting swords, and formed arrays outside Black Stone City.

Ling Shuang, draped in an ice-blue sword cloak and holding a dao-protecting sword, stood before the vanguard array, and the Qingmang Mountain Yao Race iron cavalry followed closely behind, with demonic wolves and demonic tigers raising their heads and roaring, their momentum as grand as a rainbow.

"Vanguard, hear my order! Follow me rushing to the Abyss of Nothingness, slay the Void vanguard, and protect the territory of the Myriad Realms!" At Ling Shuang's order, the vanguard turned into a blue rainbow, shooting straight into the sky.

Zhou Zhiting, holding the battle blood spear, stood before the center army array. The two hundred thousand coalition troops formed neat ranks with connected Auras, and the dao-protecting grand general Seal suspended before the array flashed with red light.

"Center army, hear my order! Follow me to the Abyss of Nothingness, garrison the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array, fight to the death without retreat, and protect the core territory!" Zhou Zhiting's voice shook all directions, and the center army turned into a silver rainbow, closely following the vanguard.

The three vice alliance masters, True Monarch Tianxing, Sword Sovereign Hanbing, and Master Cangwu Zi, each led the elites of the Array Halls to separately head to the eye points of the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array, channeling the power of the Spiritual Veins to reinforce the grand array.

Bai Yunzhou stood on the Star-Gazing Platform of Black Stone City, watching the three streaks of light rushing toward the Abyss of Nothingness with eyes full of expectation. He raised his hand and waved, and the chaos domain-protecting seal hung high in the air.

"Cultivators of the Myriad Realms, hear my order! Starting today, all of you shall channel your own dao-protecting hearts, converge them into the domain-protecting light barrier, assist the coalition in battle, and protect our Star Domain!"

His voice passed through the chaos domain-protecting seal, spreading to every corner of the Myriad Realms—whether they were Disciples of the Guardian Academy, secluded Cultivators, or ordinary commoners.

Cultivators of the Northern Domain sat cross-legged, channeling spiritual power to converge into the domain-protecting light barrier; the Yao Race of Qingmang Mountain roared to the skies, nourishing the light barrier with demonic power; the remnants of the Liuyun Domain held dao-protecting talismans, blessing the light barrier with mental power.

Across various places in the Myriad Realms, countless strands of power gathered, making the domain-protecting Spiritual Vein light barrier increasingly resplendent, and a pale-green light enveloped the entire Star Domain, transforming into an indestructible barrier.

Seeing that the power of the Myriad Realms had already condensed, Bai Yunzhou's figure flickered, turning into an azure rainbow that rushed straight towards the Abyss of Nothingness, with the chaos green lotus sword suspended by his side and azure brilliance filling the sky.

The Abyss of Nothingness was located at the northernmost end of the Star Domain, adjacent to the Myriad-Fathom Ice Plain. Here, heaven and earth were distorted, gray fog filled the air, and spatial cracks crisscrossed, exuding a bone-chilling Power of Nothingness.

The vanguard led by Ling Shuang had already encountered the Void Clan vanguard, and void black shadows danced all over the sky, emitting sharp screeches as they lunged toward the vanguard.

"Slash!" Ling Shuang let out a low cry, and the Ice Soul Sword Intent condensed thousands of ice swords. The ice swords rained down, shooting toward the void black shadows, while dao-protecting sword qi crisscrossed, splitting open layers of gray fog.

The Yao Race iron cavalry were fiercely brave; demonic wolves charged and demonic tigers tore and bit. The power of the Yao Race fused with the dao-protecting sword qi, slaughtering the void black shadows like cutting melons and vegetables, and the vanguard was as unstoppable as a bamboo splitting.

However, the Void Clan vanguard was endless; one batch was killed, and another batch arrived. Within the gray fog, the Auras of void generals faintly emerged, with strengths comparable to the Void Refining Peak.

Three void generals walked out from the gray fog, the Power of Nothingness around their bodies solidifying into three void blades that slashed directly at Ling Shuang, their Auras stern and carrying intent of destruction.

Ling Shuang's eyes condensed, the dao-protecting sword fusing with the Ice Soul Sword Intent to transform into an ice-blue sword qi that battled fiercely with the three void generals, sword shadows flying and tangled in an inextricable fight.

The Yao Race Clan Chief led the Yao Race elites forward, entangling the Void Clan vanguard to share the pressure for Ling Shuang. Although the vanguard fought through blood, they always held their ground without retreating a single inch.

At this time, the center army led by Zhou Zhiting arrived, and the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array immediately unfolded, array patterns flashing to channel the power of the domain-protecting light barrier, transforming into a huge protective array light barrier to shield the vanguard.

"Center army Disciples, form the dao-protecting sword array!" At Zhou Zhiting's order, tens of thousands of Sword Cultivator Disciples formed a sword array, their dao-protecting sword qi connecting to transform into an azure sword wall that resisted the void black shadows.

The battle blood spear waved, the battle blood power condensing a hundred-zhang spear radiance that pierced straight at a void general. Wherever the spear radiance passed, the Power of Nothingness completely dissipated, and the void general emitted a miserable screech.

Joining forces, the vanguard and center army boosted their morale greatly, slaying void black shadows faster and faster, and the three void generals gradually fell into a disadvantage, the Power of Nothingness around their bodies becoming increasingly thin.

Right at this moment, at the center of the Abyss of Nothingness, a terrifying pressure suddenly arrived, the gray fog surging like a tide, and a huge black shadow slowly walked out from a spatial crack.

The black shadow stood ten thousand zhang tall, surrounded by dense Power of Nothingness. Wherever it passed, space collapsed and Spiritual Veins were annihilated—it was none other than the Lord of Nothingness who had broken the Seal and emerged.

"Insignificant humans, how dare you block the path of my Void Clan! Today, I shall make the entire Star Domain turn into nothingness!"

The voice of the Lord of Nothingness was hoarse and unpleasant, echoing like a thunderclap above the Abyss of Nothingness, and a pressure far exceeding the Body Integration Stage swept toward the coalition.

The protective array light barrier instantly caved in, the array patterns of the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array began to flash, and the coalition Cultivators all felt stuffy in their chests with qi and blood surging, many low-tier Cultivators directly collapsing to the ground.

Ling Shuang and Zhou Zhiting were both blasted back by the pressure, blood spilling from their mouths, and the three void generals seized the opportunity to counterattack, their Power of Nothingness surging as they lunged toward the two.

"Everyone hold on!"

A clear voice came from the horizon. Bai Yunzhou turned into an azure rainbow, descending upon the core of the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array, and the chaos domain-protecting seal hung high in the air, azure brilliance surging explosively.

The Power of Chaos unfolded, transforming into a huge green lotus light barrier that resisted the pressure of the Lord of Nothingness, and the coalition Cultivators instantly felt their chests loosen and stood up one after another.

Bai Yunzhou raised his hand and waved, and the chaos green lotus sword flew out, slashing directly at the three void generals. Within the sword qi, the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection merged, carrying the power to purify everything.

The three void generals were completely unable to resist, instantly chopped into powder by the sword qi, their Divine Souls utterly destroyed, and seeing their chief generals killed, the Void Clan vanguard instantly fell into Chaos.

"Bai Yunzhou, mere Body Integration Stage, how dare you make an enemy of me! Today, I shall slay you first, and then flatten the Myriad Realms!"

The Lord of Nothingness roared angrily, raising his hand to strike out a huge void palm print. The palm print blotted out the sky and earth, carrying a destructive momentum as it slapped straight toward Bai Yunzhou.

Wherever the palm print passed, space completely collapsed, turning into a piece of nothingness, and before the palm print, the protective array light barrier was as fragile as thin paper, about to shatter instantly.

"Zhou Zhiting, channel the power of the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array to help me!" Bai Yunzhou gave a low shout, fully unfolding his Chaos Green Lotus Body, and a cyan-gray Chaos halo enveloped the entire spirit-gathering array.

Zhou Zhiting endured her injuries, raised her hand, and pressed it against the array eye of the spirit-gathering array. The battle blood power fused with the power of the domain-protecting light barrier, transforming into a huge pillar of power that poured into Bai Yunzhou's body.

"Three vice alliance masters, channel the power of the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array to condense the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword!"

Bai Yunzhou's voice spread throughout the Abyss of Nothingness. True Monarch Tianxing, Sword Sovereign Hanbing, and Master Cangwu Zi exerted force simultaneously—the power of the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array and the power of the eight Spiritual Vein guarding points.

Along with the dao-protecting hearts of the Myriad Realms' Cultivators, all of them converged, transforming above Bai Yunzhou's head into a ten-thousand-zhang-long Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword, the sword body flashing with azure brilliance and thousands of runes.

This sword condensed the Spiritual Vein power of the Myriad Realms, condensed the obsessions of all Guardians, and condensed all hopes of protecting the Star Domain, carrying unrivaled power.

"Lord of Nothingness, since you wish to destroy my Myriad Realms, I shall use the power of the Myriad Realms to Seal you in nothingness for all eternity, never to be reincarnated!"

With a clear shout, Bai Yunzhou raised his hand to grasp the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword. The Aura around his body surged explosively, his Body Integration Stage power bursting forth to the fullest, the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection intertwined, and the sword qi shot straight into the clouds.

"Chaos protects the Dao, Myriad Realms share one heart; a single sword Seals nothingness!"

The ten-thousand-zhang-long Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword, carrying sky-filling azure brilliance, slashed toward the void palm print of the Lord of Nothingness, and the moment sword and palm collided, heaven and earth plunged into dead silence.

Afterwards, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise came. The Abyss of Nothingness trembled violently, spatial cracks crisscrossed, and the gray fog was slashed open by the sword qi, revealing a clear sky.

Under the hacking and slashing of the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword, the void palm print gradually cracked and shattered, the Power of Nothingness dissipated, and the Lord of Nothingness emitted a painful roar, his massive body retreating repeatedly.

"Impossible! How could you possess such powerful strength? This is impossible!" The Lord of Nothingness's eyes were filled with disbelief, and the Power of Nothingness around his body began to disorder.

Pressing his advantage, Bai Yunzhou held the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword and charged directly at the Lord of Nothingness. Sword qi crisscrossed, every single sword carrying the power of the Myriad Realms to slash at the body of the Lord of Nothingness.

The Lord of Nothingness roared repeatedly, the Power of Nothingness around his body surging to condense into countless void spears that shot toward Bai Yunzhou, and wherever the spears passed, space was swallowed up.

Bai Yunzhou unfolded the Chaos Domain, fully activating the Law suppression trait. The speed of the void spears plummeted, their power dropping drastically. He dodged sideways, and the sword qi pierced straight at the glabella of the Lord of Nothingness.

"Puff!"

The Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword pierced into the glabella of the Lord of Nothingness. Azure brilliance surged explosively, and the Power of Chaos and the Power of Dao Protection poured in frantically, devouring the Power of Nothingness within his body.

The massive body of the Lord of Nothingness began to tremble, the Power of Nothingness around his body gradually dissipating, the trend of spatial collapse also gradually stopping, and the gray fog began to slowly disperse.

"I am not resigned! The Realm of Nothingness will eventually swallow the entire Star Domain one day!"

The Lord of Nothingness emitted a final screech, his massive body gradually transforming into wisps of void vapor under the power of the Myriad Realms Dao-Protecting Sword, attempting to escape back to the Realm of Nothingness.

"Want to leave? Too late!"

Bai Yunzhou's eyes condensed as he raised his hand to offer up the chaos domain-protecting seal. The Seal body surged in size, transforming to ten thousand zhang large to suppress the remnant soul of the Lord of Nothingness.

"Chaos Seals and suppresses, the Myriad Realms serve as prison; Lord of Nothingness, sealed for all eternity!"

Carrying the power of the Myriad Realms, the chaos domain-protecting seal fiercely smashed down upon the remnant soul of the Lord of Nothingness. The remnant soul emitted a miserable screech, wrapped by the Seal's power, and slowly sank into the depths of the Abyss of Nothingness.

Bai Yunzhou waved his hand, and the power of the Myriad Realms Spirit-Gathering Array and the nine-layer dao-protecting grand array fully converged, transforming into a huge sealing light barrier that completely sealed the Abyss of Nothingness shut.

Upon the sealing light barrier, runes flickered, fusing the Power of Chaos, the Power of Dao Protection, and the Spiritual Vein power of the Myriad Realms. It was indestructible and would never be broken for all eternity; the Lord of Nothingness would never have a day to break the Seal again.

Having finished all this, Bai Yunzhou slowly withdrew his sword, and the chaos domain-protecting seal fell back into his hand. The Aura around his body withered to the extreme, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and his figure flickered, nearly falling over.

Zhou Zhiting and Ling Shuang hurriedly stepped forward, supporting him left and right. Both of them had fought through bloody battles, yet they could not hide the joy in their eyes: "Alliance Master, we won! We won!"

Bai Yunzhou leaned against the two women, smiling slightly, his eyes full of exhaustion, but also carrying a sense of relief: "We won... The Myriad Realms are finally at peace."
