658: Holy Land of Chaos

"Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon, crimson sun pearl..."

Mo Xuan observed the undulating crimson sun pearl in his hand, his heart stirring slightly.

Apart from the Heavenly Blade buried beneath the nameless peak below.

These two supreme treasures didn't seem to have fully formed tool spirits... "No, perhaps these two Heavenly Venerates just made the same choice as me..."

Mo Xuan thought of himself; his two Lifebound Treasures, the clan-guarding divine stele and the mountain sea pearl, also hadn't birthed fully formed tool spirits.

However, they were not lacking in inherent spirituality.

Magic Treasure, after all, was merely a vessel for one's own Great Dao.

"I wonder if that's the case..."

Mo Xuan didn't ponder it further.

His own strength was insufficient; to unleash a single strike from a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon, he would consume the spiritual resources already stored within it.

However, the cost of this single strike was truly immense.

"Fellow Daoist."

At this moment.

A graceful and noble figure, whose aura was slightly diminished but whose demeanor remained undiminished, stepped out from the Void Realm.

"Fellow Daoist Yao Guang."

Mo Xuan nodded, looking towards the newcomer.

Behind the newcomer, a mysterious precious tree floated.

Upon the precious tree, specks of mysterious light scattered.

Just by sensing a trace of its aura, insights emerged in his mind one after another.

"The Enlightenment Precious Tree is indeed extraordinary."

Mo Xuan didn't pay much attention.

He had long known of the existence of this precious tree.

This was Yao Guang's greatest Opportunity.

In the past, Dao Lord Yuheng was able to suppress all Dao Lords in this frontier region and achieve the Dao Integration Realm Late Stage, which was inseparable from the credit of this Enlightenment Precious Tree.

It was precisely because of this that Dao Lord Yuheng spent many years comprehending the Dao under the Enlightenment Precious Tree, while Lady Yao Guang's cultivation, on the contrary, fell behind quite a bit.

However, this Enlightenment Precious Tree was far inferior compared to a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon.

After all, a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon carried the Great Dao of a Heavenly Venerate.

Activating a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon, its might was world-shattering, difficult for ordinary Dao Lords to withstand, making one unrivaled.

If one could go a step further and comprehend the Heavenly Venerate Great Dao from it.

That would be a truly supreme Opportunity.

Lady Yao Guang's expression was solemn.

She looked down at the nameless peak below, where the lingering aura of that Heavenly Blade remained.

Her mind was shaken.

She had followed along, intending to offer some assistance and protection.

The three Holy Lands possessing Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapons were too overbearing, their Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapons clashing.

Wherever those few people passed, the earth collapsed, spiritual peaks shattered, and countless died or were injured.

Yet, she hadn't expected.

That existence, who previously regarded all living beings as ants and was protected by a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon, would also have a day of demise.

Even the Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon was trapped here.

"Is this frontier region finally going to usher in a true Holy Land...?"

Lady Yao Guang's heart swayed; perhaps her greatest Opportunity was not the Enlightenment Precious Tree behind her, but rather taking in her ninth Disciple.

Her father, in former years, was also an Elder in a Holy Land.

It was only later, due to certain reasons, that he brought her and several other Fellow Daoists to this frontier region.

This led to the former Yuheng Ancient Kingdom and the current Yaoguang Ancient Kingdom.

Only she could truly and deeply comprehend the power of a Holy Land.

"Fellow Daoist is unharmed, so Yao Guang will not linger."

Since she knew that the Chaotic Sea was safe, Lady Yao Guang did not stay long, bowed gracefully, and took her leave.

Her injuries had not yet recovered, and after this incident, they had worsened again.

Mo Xuan nodded.

After Lady Yao Guang departed.

He waited for a moment.

The other two Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapons that had been clashing with the Heavenly Blade no longer showed any trace.

His figure moved.

He vanished above the edge of the Chaotic Sea.

Only a solitary, nameless mountain peak remained, standing at the junction of sea and land.

The fist-sized crimson precious bead also disappeared with it.

North of the Chaotic Sea, on Gui Zhou Island.

At Heimu Peak, Black Demon Dao Lord's expression was grave.

Just a short while ago, he had sensed the aura of death.

This shocked him.

One must know that even when he was suppressed and divided back then, he had never felt this way.

"Hoo~"

"It's gone..."

Black Demon Dao Lord breathed a sigh of relief.

What on earth was it... Apparently, with his current Realm of unrecovered cultivation, he hadn't perceived what had transpired.

"Hmm? What's that?"

Just then.

Black Demon Dao Lord's heart stirred, and he looked up.

He saw above Gui Zhou Island, enveloped in clouds and mist.

A crimson sun slowly rose.

Crimson light shone across the entire Chaotic Sea, revealing itself without any concealment, as if proclaiming its existence.

"This aura... this Dao rhyme... this feeling..."

"It's a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon!"

Black Demon Dao Lord was stunned and horrified.

Although he had never possessed a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon.

That didn't prevent him from recognizing it now.

"What on earth did that guy do...?"

Black Demon Dao Lord fell silent.

Ever since he was suppressed by that guy, this world seemed to have started changing.

Beneath the waters of Gui Zhou Island.

Before the Ancestral Hall.

Two small guardian beasts trembled in fear.

Unease permeated their hearts.

That crimson sun possessed the power to easily obliterate them.

As primeval exotic species in the Dao Integration Realm.

Mythical Elephant and Azure Lion had lost their composure again.

Fortunately, that crimson sun didn't seem to have them in its eyes.

The two beasts exchanged glances.

They looked towards the Profound Palace behind them.

Just now, that ethereal aura had returned once more.

"Alas..."

Connecting the dots.

The two beasts sighed softly in their hearts.

The little schemes that had existed in their hearts before vanished without a trace at this moment... A Holy Land had fallen.

Shaking all directions.

The Heavenly Blade Li Clan was annihilated.

Yet, the one who acted was not any Holy Land.

But a strike from the east.

As various pieces of information, some true and some false, spread.

The gazes of many powerful individuals turned towards that distant, desolate frontier region of the Eastern Wilderness.

It was said to be a barbaric sea.

With numerous sea beasts.

Although there were a few Dao Lords of He Dao.

But that was all there was to it.

However, now, a Holy Land had been struck down by an existence from that frontier sea region.

This sense of shock made it difficult for countless powerful individuals to accept.

The gazes directed towards that frontier sea region gradually changed.

It was a look of awe, a look reserved for Forbidden Grounds and absolute domains.

From this moment on.

The Chaotic Sea became a truly Forbidden Ground in the eyes of the powerful.

After all, a single strike had brought down a Holy Land.

Its power was immense, unimaginable.

If one were to offend it carelessly, who could escape safely?

Some powerful individuals remained silent.

Others were tempted.

It was rumored that the Heavenly Blade of the Heavenly Blade Li Clan was left behind in the frontier region.

If one could obtain the Heavenly Blade, the Great Dao would be within reach.

However, when powerful individuals, hidden in the shadows, arrived outside the Li Luan Sea Region.

Seeing the crimson sun that illuminated the entire Chaotic Sea.

Figures fell silent, one after another.

There was no need to search for the Heavenly Blade; a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon had appeared so brazenly before their eyes.

But who would dare to take it?

After all.

There were Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapons within each Holy Land.

But who would dare to go to a Holy Land and demand a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon?

"Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon... Holy Land..."

Many powerful individuals sighed in their hearts, looking at the vast and boundless Li Luan Sea Region, and a name emerged in their minds.

Li Luan Holy Land!

At this moment.

In the northern part of the Chaotic Sea, as the core of the Holy Land.

Within Gui Zhou Island.

Several figures looked melancholic.

"It eats too much..."

Zhou Leren looked at the continuously diminishing treasures within the clan.

He looked up at the culprit.

His lips moved, but he couldn't speak.

High in the sky, the crimson sun seemed oblivious, absorbing endless vital Qi and spiritual essence on its own.

It had been countless years since it had a full meal.
