139: Difficult to handle? Then let's not handle it! The unusual activity of the Sendai crystal coffin.

"This is definitely not a power that should exist in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces!"

The moment the darkness struck, Xu Jinhuan sensed this, and his expression suddenly turned solemn.

That power carried a deathly stillness that annihilated everything, far exceeding the shackles of this world; it was definitely not something a local creature could Cultivate or give birth to.

But now was not the time to think too much; the four dark figures each represented a Dark Unrestor.

These old monsters had been dormant for countless years and possessed nearly infinite methods. Even if their Realm was only at the third heaven of the Quasi-Emperor Realm, the combat power they could unleash was extremely terrifying, enough to suppress an entire era!

They were not to be underestimated.

"Eternal Myriad Dao Art, Eternal Light!"

Out of respect, Xu Jinhuan used a skill from the Eternal Myriad Dao Art right from the start.

In an instant, a majestic and vast Eternal Power erupted within his body!

Everything fell silent, the world lost its color, and the light of the sun, moon, and stars was completely overshadowed at this moment!

Above the firmament, only a brilliant divine light remained, one that pierced through the ages and would never fade, shining resplendently upon the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands!

That light was too intense, scorching everyone's eyes and causing stinging pain, yet not a single person was willing to look away.

Everyone held their breath, gazing up with focused attention, their eyes burning with a fervor that was almost pious.

Simply because this light was too exquisite, too magnificent, like the descent of a unique miracle from across the ages, enough to drive any Cultivator into a frenzy!

At this moment, the Disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land and the creatures of the Giant Deer Dao Province who witnessed this scene all had the same thought surge in their hearts:

This might be the only Opportunity of my life; I must grasp it firmly and must not be a Divided Soul for even a moment!

Under the gaze of all the Disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land and all the creatures of the Giant Deer Dao Province, the Eternal Light and the extreme darkness collided with a bang!

Like two completely different rivers crashing into the same ocean.

In the starry sky, the colors of black and white each occupied a side of the firmament, the boundary between them distinct and clearer than the confluence of the Jing and Wei rivers, erupting with a roar that shook the ages!

Although the power of the four forbidden Incarnations was only at the third heaven of the Quasi-Emperor Realm, their original bodies were at a higher Realm, and the Dao laws they had comprehended were as vast as the sea.

For a time, they were actually able to contend with Xu Jinhuan's Eternal Light, holding a stalemate for several full breaths!

However, that was all; it ended there, an impassable limit.

After a brief stalemate, that dark power that annihilated everything eventually suffered a crushing defeat!

Like the fading night at the break of dawn, it was decomposed and dissolved by the Eternal Light like wind sweeping away remnant clouds, leaving nothing behind!

In a daze, the brilliant divine light filled the entire starry sky, eternally illuminating the heavens and myriad worlds, dispelling all gloom.

Under the Holy Light, all living beings were bathed in it, as if receiving the grace of a Supreme deity. One by one, they showed intoxicated expressions, their hearts surging with a martyr-like fanaticism!

"Young Master Xu is invincible!"

"Young Master Xu sweeps away everything!"

Someone shouted excitedly.

"Hiss... Over half a year ago, the day Sequence Xu burst onto the scene and was conferred his sequence is still vivid in my mind. In the blink of an eye, in less than a year, he has grown to such a level—unparalleled in the world, unprecedented throughout history. Such a Prodigy is truly shocking!"

"Yes, it's more than just shocking. I even feel that those Emperors and Supremes in the long river of history aren't worthy of wiping Sequence Xu's shoes! The two are completely different species!"

Some were reminiscing about the glorious years of the past, though it wasn't that long ago.

Others were thinking about how to help Xu Jinhuan continue his excellent genes.

"Young Master Xu, I want to have ten, no, a hundred children for you!"

Uh, something seemed wrong, but it was irrelevant.

Most importantly, Xu Jinhuan's earth-shaking strike had completely established everyone's Supreme confidence in him!

At this moment, everyone in the Taiyi Holy Land, from Disciples to Elders, was boiling with excitement, giving birth to an indomitable belief in victory!

The way they looked at Xu Jinhuan was filled with worship and fanaticism.

Correspondingly, the side of the Fifteen Lineage Alliance was now in a state of extreme Chaos!

Countless Cultivators had their Dao Heart collapse, their faces ashen as they muttered to themselves in total despair:

"We've lost for sure! We're completely finished today! With that Young Master Xu around, we simply have no chance of winning!"

"Grand Elder! Let's retreat quickly! In the future, we'll apologize to the Taiyi Holy Land and sign compensation terms for tens of thousands of years. Let today's matter be settled!"

"He cannot be fought! Such an eternally peerless and elegant Prodigy must never be opposed!"

Even the four Quasi-Emperor level Clones targeted by the Eternal Light experienced a moment of daze.

This light was indeed brilliant to the extreme, like a miracle.

But more importantly, the opponent's power was not borrowed from external sources, but was his own genuine strength!

"Fifth heaven of the Quasi-Emperor Realm? How is that possible?!!!"

"How is it possible? How can a person's talent be high to such an extent? How old is he?"

"Even if I were to undergo Reincarnation and start Cultivating from the womb, I wouldn't be able to reach this step. Could he be some Supreme Immortal King banished from the Endless Immortal Domain?!"

The Quasi-Emperor dark shadows couldn't close their mouths.

How old was Xu Jinhuan? From the time he burst onto the scene until now, it had been only a short half-year, a period so brief that it wouldn't even be enough time for them to normally comprehend a single difficult problem!

Yet such a youth already possessed combat power that could suppress a Quasi-Emperor!

Thinking back to when they were striving to step into the Quasi-Emperor Realm, how much hardship had they endured and how many years had they spent? The difficulties and trials along the way were innumerable; 'narrowly escaping death' wasn't enough to describe it!

But what about Xu Jinhuan? He was only twenty, had only appeared for a year, and had already reached this Realm.

How could these old monsters who had been dormant for ages not be terrified by such a world of difference? How could they not be horrified?

Becoming an Emperor shouldn't be like this!

One should first have a good Innate foundation, then rely on Luck to obtain a bunch of Opportunities, forge a persistent and determined Dao Heart through countless adversities, and then, based on the right timing, location, and people, embark on the emperor road, finally suppressing all enemies.

Now, Xu Jinhuan didn't even need to prove his Dao and already had the momentum of being invincible in the world. Cultivation shouldn't be like this!

This boy absolutely cannot be fought!

If they wanted to kill him, it could only be at the moment the emperor road reopened, when their original bodies would forcibly leave seclusion and use their Emperor Realm cultivation to erase him!

Exchanging a glance, the four figures blurred simultaneously, turning into black mist in an attempt to flee.

On the Quasi-Emperor path, the gap between each heaven was as much as four or five times.

The opponent was now at the terrifying fifth heaven of the Quasi-Emperor Realm, his combat power leading theirs by ten or even dozens of times; it was simply impossible to fight!

Rather than losing a decent Clone for nothing, it was better to run away directly and make a final attempt to preserve their strength!

"Not good, Young Master, they're going to run!"

Fang Qingyao, who possessed the Fate God Eyes, was the first to notice something was wrong and quickly gave a reminder.

However, Xu Jinhuan seemed to have anticipated this.

He stood with his hands behind his back, Eternal Holy Light circulating around him, and his second offensive in his palm had already been brewed to its Peak. Just as Fang Qingyao's voice fell, he lightly flicked his finger!

Buzz!—

A clear and melodious sword hum echoed through the eternal starry sky.

A massive azure lotus that blotted out the sun, covered the sea of stars, and suppressed the galaxy suddenly bloomed at the end of the starry sky! Its petals were layered, circulating with Chaos Dao rhymes, and as soon as it appeared, it emitted a Supreme Sword Intent that looked down upon the world!

Swish!

In an instant, innumerable strands of azure Sword Qi erupted from the azure lotus petals! The Sword Qi crisscrossed, sweeping through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, annihilating the vacuum and tearing through the darkness. Everywhere it passed, even the vacuum wailed and trembled!

Green Lotus Sword Intent, activate!

That giant azure lotus, carrying the momentum of opening the heavens and earth, moved at a speed that surpassed light, arriving later but striking first. In an instant, it stood horizontally across the escape route of the four dark shadows like an impassable chasm!

Swish swish swish!—

The sword light was cold, fast as lightning, thousands in an instant!

The Sword Qi arrived!

The Sword Intent arrived!

The killing intent arrived!

A person's death is like a lamp going out.

Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!

Four soft sounds, like bubbles bursting.

The four dark shadows didn't even have time to scream before they crumbled inch by inch under the Green Lotus Sword Intent like a dream or a bubble, leaving not even a trace of a remnant soul, only four clumps of pure dark power Origin floating in the starry sky.

Xu Jinhuan reached out and grabbed, and those four clumps of Dark Origin were easily taken into his pocket, turning into nourishment for himself.

As the Dark Origin entered his hand, he suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise.

"Hmm? This sleeping beauty is actually interested in the Dark Origin?"

Even though their Clones were easily crushed, from the depths of the starry sky, the unwilling roars and threats of the Rulers of the Forbidden Zone still came, their voices venomous and shaking the universe.

"Brat! Don't get ahead of yourself! It won't be long before we personally leave our mountains to deal with you, you little child!"

"The day the emperor road reappears will be the time of our return! At that time, I hope you, this ant, will still have the power to contend with the Emperor Realm!"

Unfortunately, Xu Jinhuan was unmoved and didn't even pay them any attention.

"Hiss!—"

At this moment, all the Cultivators present, whether they were Disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land or remnants of the Fifteen Lineage Alliance, couldn't help but gasp, their hearts shaking and their bodies turning cold!

Those were Quasi-Emperor powerhouses who stood high above and had embarked on the journey of the emperor road! Yet they couldn't even escape and were annihilated by Xu Jinhuan's single sword strike, dying so cleanly and efficiently!

To what terrifying level had the current Sequence Xu actually reached?!

With the complete fall of the four giants' Clones, Xu Jinhuan's casual strike had, in an instant, completely resolved the greatest crisis that had threatened to destroy the Taiyi Holy Land!

"We won! Thank you, Sequence Xu, thank you, Elders!"

"The most difficult moment has finally passed. The horn for our counterattack is about to blow, and an era for the Taiyi Holy Land in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces is about to begin!"

Some Disciples and Elders looked at the crowd of Fifteen Alliance soldiers outside with a dazed expression.

"Sequence Xu, how should we handle those guys who followed them here?"

"With so many practitioners, numbering in the tens of millions, if handled improperly, it could easily trigger lineage disputes and cause even greater trouble."

"Yes, these tens of millions of creatures... killing them isn't right, and letting them go isn't right either. It's truly difficult to handle..."

Before they could even discuss a countermeasure, Xu Jinhuan executed his own solution.

He slowly raised his palm, and a giant hand that blotted out the sun suddenly condensed, covering a territory of several light-years. On the palm, dense Great Dao patterns intertwined and circulated, each pattern containing profound and mysterious Supreme Dao rhymes. A terrifying pressure fell like an eternal divine mountain, causing heaven and earth to tremble!

The giant hand grabbed the air, enveloping all the tens of millions of incoming enemies, clutching them in its palm as easily as grabbing ants.

"Not good! He's going to make a move!"

"Run! Run away!"

"It can't be broken, it simply can't be broken! His power is too terrifying, we're no match for him at all!"

Someone let out a shrill scream, and the tens of millions of practitioners immediately broke into a frenzy. Saints rode clouds and bolted, Great Saints tore through the Void Realm in an attempt to escape, and countless experts simultaneously activated secret treasures, trying to break free from the giant hand's confinement!

But it was all in vain!

The next moment, brilliant divine light erupted, the palm patterns flashed, and the tens of millions of practitioners didn't even have time to scream before they were instantly obliterated. Their Divine Soul and Physical Body were all turned into pure energy, which Xu Jinhuan inhaled into his body in one breath, refining it into a part of his own cultivation.

Tens of millions of creatures were completely obliterated in a few breaths, leaving not even a trace of a remnant soul!

Difficult to handle? Then don't handle it!

Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish—it was as simple as that!

This scene made everyone present feel their scalps go numb and their hearts turn cold with fear; even their breathing subconsciously stopped.

Those were tens of millions of living practitioners! Yet they were refined so casually by him. Such ruthless methods and magnificent spirit were awe-inspiring!

"Sequence Xu, this..."

A Grand Elder was about to say something when a companion beside him quickly covered his mouth.

"Don't say it, they got what they deserved! They were the ones who actively initiated the Immortal War, wanting to destroy our Taiyi Holy Land and wipe us out! The sequence is merely following the ancient rules, stopping killing with killing; there's nothing improper about it!"

"That's right! They were the ones in the wrong, we are the victims! This kind of disposal is perfectly reasonable!"

A group of Grand Elders nodded.

Someone even jumped out, impatient to go kill more people.

"Sequence Xu, this old man volunteers! I'll go to those lineage remnants' lands to clean up the leftovers and eliminate future troubles forever!"

"This old man will go too! It's the perfect time to test the power of the Book of Myriad Daos and settle today's grudge while I'm at it!"

"Don't fight over it! Such a delightful matter should be left to me!"

Infected by Xu Jinhuan's terrifying record and Aura, combined with the huge progress the Book of Myriad Daos had given them, the Grand Elders of the Taiyi Holy Land had the passion reborn in their hearts.

Eight thousand years old this year—it's the perfect age to strive!

The blood is burning!

"..."

Xu Jinhuan did not agree to the request of this group of passionate old men.

Although they indeed had good combat power within the Great Saint Realm and had almost no opponents, they would be helpless if they encountered a quasi-emperor weapon or an ultimate dao emperor weapon.

Only by completely establishing a firm foothold in the Quasi-Emperor Realm could one contend with a quasi-emperor weapon.

As for ultimate dao emperor weapons, even those in the Quasi-Emperor Realm couldn't withstand them head-on and could only dodge; if used by a similar Quasi-Emperor powerhouse, they wouldn't even be able to dodge.

Sending this group of old fogies who had just broken through to clear out the lineages now was too dangerous; they could be lost if they weren't careful.

Dismissing the group of old timers, Xu Jinhuan immersed his mind into his Sendai.

Inside the Sendai, everything was as usual, except for that mysterious Crystal Coffin, which was vibrating slightly, seemingly thirsting for something in silence, faintly emitting a weak pulling force.

As if it were longing for something.

Xu Jinhuan understood instantly. He took out a portion of the Dark Origin from the spoils he had previously seized and flicked his finger, letting a wisp of pure dark energy fall onto the lid of the Crystal Coffin.

Immediately, the Crystal Coffin trembled even more violently, and a mysterious Aura spread through Xu Jinhuan's Sendai.

Noble and cold, like a solitary moon in the sky or a cold star in the clouds, it carried a sense of detachment that kept people away, sacred and untouchable, and even more so, not to be desecrated.

But this change only lasted for a few seconds.

In an instant, that wisp of Dark Origin was completely absorbed by the Crystal Coffin, the energy was exhausted, the vibration stopped abruptly, and that mysterious Aura receded like a tide. The Sendai regained its calm, as if the movement just now had never happened.

"Who exactly are you?"

Xu Jinhuan stared at the silent Crystal Coffin, looking at the beautiful face within, and whispered softly.

As he spoke, he continued to separate a wisp of Dark Origin and injected it into the Crystal Coffin.
