119: Chapter 119 The Severing of the Heavenly Connection: Reactions from All Sides
After the Daoist Duobao departed, the borders of the Human Race returned to peace, with only the lingering pressure of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal in the space causing some mountain Essence Spirits to tremble.
Meanwhile, the driven-away Western Sect Disciples immediately turned into streaks of light and left the territory of the Human Race.
In an area permeated by the power of the Heavenly Dao, they were retrieved by Zhunti and brought back to the Western Sect.
In but an instant, this group of Western Sect Disciples arrived at Mount Sumeru and all knelt before the mountain gate to lodge a complaint.
They bowed their heads one by one, their voices filled with undisguisable trembling and resentment:
"Reporting to Revered Master and Junior Martial Uncle, we were gathering Luck in the Human Race when we were forcefully driven away by the Jie Sect's Daoist Duobao. Please, Revered Master and Junior Martial Uncle, decide for us!"
Above the Karma Golden Lotus, Jieyin listened to the Disciples' words, his expression gradually becoming gloomy.
The order had just been given.
They were to acquire as much Luck as possible.
How long had it been?
They had been driven away!
"The Jie Sect... they go too far!"
Beside him, Zhunti was also stained with a touch of anger, his tone carrying undisguisable fury:
"What a Human Race! What a Duobao! It was merely a bit of Luck, yet they drove away all my Western Sect Disciples, not leaving the Western Sect even a shred of face!"
Having said this, Daoist Zhunti stood up and prepared to head towards the East Sea to reason with Tongtian, but was stopped by Daoist Jieyin with a raised hand.
"Senior Brother!" Watching Jieyin stop him, Zhunti looked at him with a gaze of confusion.
Daoist Jieyin shook his head slowly, his voice carrying a hint of helplessness: "Junior Brother, calm down."
"The Human Race has Shi Yan, so we cannot hold them accountable. The Jie Sect's Tongtian also possesses the four immortal-slaying swords; if you go up there, you will only get beaten."
These words were like a basin of cold water, dousing Zhunti's full-blown anger with nowhere to vent, yet he was powerless to refute it.
He froze in place, his face turning green and white, the accumulated resentment instantly surging into his heart. He could not help but complain in a deep voice towards the Void Realm, his tone full of unwillingness and grievance:
"Teacher! Why did you have to bestow the four immortal-slaying swords upon Tongtian!"
The four immortal-slaying swords cannot be broken without four Saints. Among the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao, they are equivalent to a Spirit Treasure that surpasses Innate treasures.
Jieyin looked at his Junior Brother, who had lost his composure, closed his eyes and sighed lightly, then looked at the Disciples below.
"All of you, return to your own Daoist fields. Let the matter of the Human Race end here."
Hearing this, the Western Sect Disciples below looked at each other, their eyes full of defiance, but they dared not disobey the Saint's decree. They could only bow in agreement and depart one after another. However, as they left, the gazes they cast towards the Human Race all hid resentment that was difficult to dissipate.
Both the Western Sect and Jie Sect Disciples had withdrawn from the Human Race; only Cultivators and Loose Cultivators of minor background remained within the Human Race's territory.
They were not worth worrying about.
Time flowed on, and one hundred and twenty years passed.
In a blessed cave-heaven wrapped in the Law of Time.
Zhuanxu opened his eyes abruptly, his Three Flowers gathering at the crown, and the Five Qi returning to the origin. The timeline contracted.
"Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Breakthrough!"
A soft shout resounded through the cave-heaven. Feeling the majestic magic power within his body, a look of joy appeared on Zhuanxu's face.
"Finally, a Breakthrough!"
The moment he broke through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, Daoist Duobao, not far from the cave-heaven, finally showed a gratified smile on his face:
"Congratulations, Disciple, for breaking through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm and officially stepping into the world of the powerful!"
As the last wisp of Dao rhyme returned to his body, Zhuanxu slowly stood up and stepped out of the cave-heaven. The time acceleration dissipated on its own, and the aura of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal around him became restrained.
He raised his eyes to look at Daoist Duobao, who stood smiling beside him, and immediately bowed in the Disciple's rite, his expression extremely respectful:
"That this Disciple has reached this day is entirely due to Revered Master's careful guidance."
Daoist Duobao raised his hand to help Zhuanxu up, his eyes full of approval, and said:
"Disciple, you have become a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. The things you want to do should begin now."
A cold light flashed in Zhuanxu's eyes, his tone carrying an unquestionable determination: "Yes, it can begin!"
With determination in his heart, Zhuanxu hesitated no longer. His figure instantly ascended above the territory of the Mortal Human Race. He channeled the Luck of the Human Race and his Grand Unity magic power, his voice resounding throughout the entire territory of the Human Race, piercing straight to the nine heavens:
"From this day forth, within the territory of my Human Race's Nine Provinces, only Human Race creatures may dwell. All Yao Race Essence Spirits, foreign Loose Cultivators, and miscellaneous alien species must evacuate within three days. Those who dare to remain will be killed without mercy!"
"Severing the Connection Between Heaven and Earth, immortals and Mortals shall be separated!"
As soon as this decree was issued, heaven and earth shook!
"What!?"
"How bold!!"
Within the Human Race's territory, the Essence Spirits in the mountains and the foreign Loose Cultivators mingling in the Mortal world were all terrified, one by one filled with shock and anger, their roars resounding through the mountains and fields.
"Severing the Connection Between Heaven and Earth is a Heaven-Defying act! Is he not afraid of being punished by the Heavenly Dao!"
There were even those arrogant Loose Cultivator experts whose cultivation had reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, who appeared directly in mid-air and angrily scolded Zhuanxu:
"Yellow-mouthed child, you merely broke through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm by Luck, yet you dare to act presumptuously before us! We will not evacuate from this Human Race territory; let's see what you can do to us!"
There are always some brainless ones who, relying on accidental opportunities to break through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, dare to question the Common Sovereign of the Human Race.
Before the words had faded, Zhuanxu's indifferent gaze had already swept over. The pressure of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal combined with the Luck of the Human Race, like a great fortune, crushed that Loose Cultivator Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
That Grand Unity Golden Immortal did not even have time to let out a scream before he died and his Dao dissipated. His Primordial Spirit vanished, and his true spirit escaped into the Sea of True Spirits.
"How can you defy the will of the Human Race?"
Zhuanxu's voice was cold, without the slightest emotion. He raised his hand and waved it, and the Luck of the Human Race turned into a long golden sword.
Where the sword light reached, space shattered completely. Those alien Essence Spirits who harbored opportunism and were unwilling to evacuate were all forcibly thrown out of the Human Race's territory by the Luck of the Human Race. Anyone who dared to resist was wiped out by thunderous means.
Those who were Grand Unity Golden Immortals had their true spirits escape into the Sea of True Spirits. Those who had not attained the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm died and their Dao dissipated, as if they had never been born.
Under his iron-fisted methods, there was no longer a single sound of resistance within the Human Race's territory.
The remaining alien Essence Spirits and foreign Loose Cultivators were so terrified that they were Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. They fled madly towards the outside of the Human Race's territory, fearing that if they were even a step too slow, they would end up dying and having their Dao dissipated.
In just half a day, there were no traces of any foreign races in the vast Nine Provinces of the Human Race.
The thirty thousand li of mountains and rivers were left solely to the Human Race.
Meanwhile, Zhuanxu mobilized the Luck of the Human Race, and the majestic Profound Yellow Qi transformed into a golden barrier that pierced through heaven and earth, forcefully severing the passage between the immortal and Mortal Realms. From then on, anyone wishing to enter the Human Race must pass through the Human Race's Luck barrier.
This scene completely shocked the five Saints of the Heavenly Dao.
Except for Tongtian, who had known about it early on, the expressions of the other five Saints as they watched the Human Race were different.
Kunlun Mountain, Yuxu Palace.
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly as he looked at the severed immortal-Mortal path, his expression indifferent.
"Severing the Connection Between Heaven and Earth? It has nothing to do with the Chan Sect..."
The Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect had long been forbidden from entering the Human Race's territory. This Severing the Connection Between Heaven and Earth had little impact on the Chan Sect.
Shouyang Mountain, Bajing Palace.
Grand Supreme Laozi closed his eyes to rest, unconcerned with the affairs of the Human Race. Meanwhile, Xuandu, who was refining Alchemy nearby, felt the changes in the Human Race's Luck, and his face showed only joy.
