231: An era without saints!? (Chapter 30)

Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable's finger pointed down from afar.

That finger seemed slow, yet it ignored the distances of space and time.

The moment it pointed out, the entire Black Wind Canyon, and even the world for ten thousand miles around, froze.

This was the Domain of a Venerable, the power of Law that transcended everything above the God Realm.

Within this Domain, no one below the Venerable Realm could withstand it.

Gu Yun was pinned firmly in place by that supreme power of Law.

The threat of death was stronger than ever before.

"Master!"

Gu Zhan's eyes were blood-red as he frantically pushed the Grandmist Chaos power within his body, trying to break free from this confinement.

The Human Race Prodigies were in despair.

The Yao Race Prodigies were filled with fanaticism and delight.

However, in this split second of life and death,

Gu Yun's heart, which had been agitated due to heavy injuries, calmed down like never before.

Minds Eye, Primordial Chaos Sacred Body, Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart.

Under the pressure of death, they achieved perfect resonance for the first time.

His Divine Soul saw the trajectory of the Dao.

His Sacred Body sensed the Origin of all things.

His Exquisite Heart analyzed that seemingly invincible Venerable Law.

A brand new, higher-level sword Dao Divine Ability that transcended "Sever Self" quietly sprouted in his heart.

That sword strike was no longer a strike of redemption to cut away one's own shackles and Karma.

It was a more domineering, more fundamental true intent.

It was the ultimate... that forcibly returned the Great Dao, Law, and Divine Ability to a single point.

"Guiyi..."

Gu Yun softly whispered the name of this Divine Ability in his heart.

With his Guiyi Realm cultivation base, he forcibly evolved this trace of enlightenment.

A sword light so faint it was almost invisible condensed from between his brows.

At this moment, Gu Yun truly understood the prototype of his own Great Dao.

Invincible Dao.

"Break."

Gu Yun shouted lightly.

That sword light met Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable's finger that crushed everything.

Boom!

At the center where the two forces collided, a patch of absolute "nothingness" appeared.

That sword strike displayed power beyond imagination, actually managing to briefly contend with the Venerable's Law.

But it was only a brief contention.

The gap in Realm was insurmountable.

Crack.

An almost imperceptible sound of shattering rang out.

The sword light carrying Gu Yun's Great Dao prototype was defeated, crumbling inch by inch.

The aftershock of the Venerable Law slammed heavily into Gu Yun's body.

Pfft!

Gu Yun's body felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and his white clothes exploded.

Blood streaks appeared on his body, and his life force weakened at an alarming rate.

If not for the terrifying indestructible power of the Azure Heaven Indestructible Art forcibly holding onto Gu Yun's life Origin, his Physical Body would have collapsed long ago.

Despite this, he could not stand and fell back powerlessly.

However, just as Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable prepared to strike again to deliver the fatal blow to Gu Yun,

"Hmph, breaking your word, showing no regard for face."

A cold snort came from above the Nine Heavens.

A massive hand composed of clouds appeared out of thin air and brushed lightly.

The confinement over the world shattered accordingly.

A grand and life-filled Venerable power surrounded Gu Yun, helping his indestructible power stabilize his injuries.

The phantom of Heavenly Secret Venerable descended here.

He looked down at the figure whose life was hanging by a thread but who remained unyielding, a flash of admiration in his eyes.

"Heavenly Secret, you dare stop me?!"

Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable let out an enraged roar.

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

Heavenly Secret Venerable smiled indifferently.

"You broke the rules, so this Venerable naturally must intervene."

"Rules?"

Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable laughed out of extreme anger.

"Today, this boy must die!"

The words fell.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four more terrifying Demon Venerable auras rose from the Void Realm, surrounding Heavenly Secret Venerable along with Heavenly Wolf Demon Venerable.

"Heavenly Wolf is right, this boy must die today."

On the Yao Race's side, a total of five Venerables appeared at once, their killing intent locking onto Gu Yun.

The situation reversed instantly.

Although Heavenly Secret Venerable was strong, he could not fight five alone.

Just then, a cold snort came from the direction of the Undying Fortress.

"Thinking of bullying with numbers? Have you asked my Great You Divine Dynasty?"

A figure in a black robe tore through the Void Realm and stood in front of Heavenly Secret Venerable.

It was a Venerable Old Ancestor of the Great You Divine Dynasty who had been stationed in the rear.

However, even so, it was still a desperate two-against-five situation.

It wasn't enough.

An aged sigh rang out in the Void Realm, carrying a hint of helplessness and determination.

An old man in a gray robe with a deep aura revealed himself.

He raised his hand and crushed an ancient jade talisman, and a message instantly pierced through the Void Realm and disappeared.

After finishing this, he stepped forward to the side of Heavenly Secret Venerable and the Great You Venerable, a terrifying Venerable pressure also erupting from him.

"Who dares touch the Dao Seed of my Gu Family!"

Three against five.

On the Human Race side, they were still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of the number of Venerables.

The situation was critical; the three human Venerables could only barely form a formation to create a defensive line, unable to protect Gu Yun's safety at all.

In the distant Central Province, the Gu Family Ancestral Land.

An urgent message from the Northern Plains was sent back by the Guardian Venerable.

"The Dao Seed is under attack, five Demon Venerables are surrounding him, send reinforcements immediately!"

The news instantly ignited the entire Gu Family.

Deep within the Forbidden Ground, several sleeping stone coffins exploded.

"This is too much!"

"How dare they touch our Gu Family's Dao Seed!"

Three Distant Ancestors of the Gu Family in the Venerable Realm soared into the sky, tearing through the Void Realm, intending to traverse hundreds of millions of miles to reinforce the Northern Plains.

However, just as they stepped into the spatial tunnel,

Two cold auras intercepted them from the left and right.

"Fellow Daoists of the Gu Family, why such a hurry?"

The Venerables of the Wang Family and the Ji Family appeared together.

"Get out of the way!"

The Gu Family Venerables roared, and a great battle erupted instantly.

The interception completely enraged the Ancient Ancestor of the Saint Realm stationed in the deepest part of the Gu Family's Chaos Small World.

"Good, very good!"

"Mere Wang Family and Ji Family dare to openly provoke my Gu Family again!"

"Today, I shall personally take action and let you all know what Saint Might is!"

A terrifying Saint Might, enough to make the Central Province rise and fall, erupted from the Gu Family Forbidden Ground.

When a Saint Ancestor is enraged, his power shakes the heavens.

He took a step forward, intending to cross the endless Void Realm.

However, at the moment he was about to leave,

A figure appeared silently before him.

The newcomer was also shrouded in Chaos Qi, their face unclear, but their aura was unfathomable, not a bit weaker than the Gu Family Saint Ancestor.

"Fellow Daoist, please stay."

The newcomer's voice was flat and calm.

The Gu Family Saint Ancestor's eyes narrowed.

"Who are you? How dare you stop me!"

"I advise Your Excellency not to meddle in others' business."

That Mysterious Saint chuckled.

"The struggles between juniors—it's better for us old fellows not to interfere."

"Otherwise, if the heavenly fate is disrupted, neither of us can afford the consequences."

"You seek death!"

The Gu Family Saint Ancestor was completely enraged, and his Saint Dao Law transformed into a heaven-covering giant hand, slamming down.

That Mysterious Saint did not dodge or avoid it; strange runes appeared around him, easily neutralizing the strike.

His Dao techniques were completely different from any family in the current world, ancient and mysterious.

"Fellow Daoist, your opponent is me."

The two Saints erupted into a great battle in the Void Realm outside the world.

Although the Mysterious Saint's strength was slightly inferior, his Dao techniques were too strange, actually pinning the enraged Gu Family Saint Ancestor firmly in place.

In the short term, it was difficult to determine a winner.

At this point, all of Gu Yun's escape routes were completely cut off.
