Chapter 1699: One thousand and ninety-nine Haotian intervenes
The mirrored light shimred brilliantly, plumting from the Nine Heavens at a speed beyond imagination, as if it arrived from both the past and future. Even soone as powerful as Taiyi couldn’t evade in ti and was struck directly.
In an instant, Taiyi’s body was locked in place, completely immobile.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Seizing the opportunity, from the depths of the Netherworld surged an imnse Power of Reincarnation, like an infinite tidal wave, engulfing everything in its path.
Ti, space, rules, the Great Dao…
Everything, under the terrifying torrent of reincarnation, was reduced to nothingness.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang…
The Chaos Bell vibrated madly, unleashing endless chaotic energy that spread violently, as though it intended to eradicate all things, suppress space-ti, and annihilate all laws.
But it was futile.
Despite being the supre divine artifact used to split the cosmos, even the Chaos Bell could not withstand the Power of Reincarnation emanating from the Six Paths Reincarnation Dish. Waves of reincarnation surged forth, directly drowning Taiyi, who was frozen in place.
“Break!”
On the other side, the center of Pangu Taiqing’s brows radiated a dazzling spiritual light, illuminating an endless Spirit World, as he prepared to unleash a great Divine Ability to rescue Taiyi from his plight.
But Jiang Chen was right beside him—how could he allow that to happen? Reaching out his hand, nine supre innate killing intents appeared, transforming into a Hongng Killing Sword in his grasp, which he directed at Pangu Taiqing’s primordial spirit.
Hongng, the beginning of existence.
In the most ancient era, nothing existed—not Chaos, not the Great Dao. Pure nothingness reigned supre.
With the ergence of Hongng, the concept of “existence” was born. It is the source of all things that are; everything that exists originates from Hongng.
Thus, the power of Hongng knows no bounds. It can destroy all that exists and pierce through all that does not.
The reincarnation Jiang Chen sought, while outwardly interpreted as destruction and creation, in essence, is rely one segnt of the endless cycle of nothingness and existence.
At the end of reincarnation lies the endless cycle of nothingness and existence. Hongng represents existence—it embodies half of Jiang Chen’s Dao.
That is why Jiang Chen sought to forge the Hongng Killing Sword—not rely for its imnse power but because it is the embodint of existence. Mastering the Hongng Dao would an Jiang Chen’s Dao would beco half-complete.
The Hongng Killing Sword swept across the sky, reducing all in its path to emptiness—Pangu’s primordial spirit light was no exception.
From the center of Pangu Taiqing’s brows, the endless spiritual ocean of the Spirit World didn’t even co into contact with the Hongng Killing Sword. It was destroyed rely by the radiance emitted from the blade, turning to nothingness and becoming irrecoverable.
“What!”
Pangu Taiqing was utterly horrified. He couldn’t afford to focus on rescuing Taiyi now and instead rallied all his strength to resist the oncoming Hongng Killing Sword.
In truth, Pangu Taiqing had a disadvantage in his fight against Jiang Chen.
After all, the Saint of Taiqing had not entrusted him with the supre treasure, the Tai Chi Diagram. Without its aid, it was impossible for him to match Jiang Chen, who was clad in divine artifacts from head to toe.
At this mont, were the Tai Chi Diagram in his possession, Jiang Chen’s sword would not have forced Pangu Taiqing into such a desperate defense.
Take, for example, a previous instance when Taiyi easily deflected Jiang Chen’s full-force attack—not because his cultivation was superior, but because he wielded the Chaos Bell, a supre treasure of creation.
Currently, Jiang Chen could harness the power of the Primordial Chaos 9th Level at most. How could he break through the defenses of a supre treasure of creation?
“Shatter!”
Elsewhere, the torrent of reincarnation surged forward, subrging Taiyi. Finally, at that mont, he managed to break free from the restraint of the mirrored light, regaining his mobility.
But by the ti he escaped the light’s constraints, it was already too late. The vast Power of Reincarnation enveloped Taiyi, twisting his body.
In the blink of an eye, Taiyi was forced to reveal his true form—a colossal three-legged divine bird, its golden feathers blazing brilliantly.
The Great Sun Golden Crow, with one head, two wings, and three legs, epitomized the Great Dao tenet: “Tao births one, one births two, two births three, three births all things.” It was one of the most immaculate beings of creation, an Innate Saint.
Yet, even such a perfect being, even one as mighty as Taiyi, now found himself in dire straits.
The radiant golden feathers covering his body were rapidly losing their luster, darkening as though soaked in ink, stripped of their divine majesty. They turned mundane, devoid of any hint of holiness, and appeared grotesquely unsightly.
Simultaneously, his third divine leg began to atrophy, visibly shrinking. Before long, it was shorter than the other two legs, seemingly on the brink of vanishing entirely.
“A crow…”
In the shadows, a Great Divine Transcendent muttered hesitantly.
It was understandable for him to say so; Taiyi’s current appearance closely resembled an ordinary crow, albeit several tis larger.
“The Way of Reincarnation, truly profound!”
So Great Divine Transcendents began to comprehend the situation, their hearts trembling with unease.
This was the Way of Reincarnation—or, more accurately, the incredible power of the Six Paths Reincarnation Dish. While both wielded the Way of Reincarnation, the reincarnation power mastered by Hou Tu and that controlled by Jiang Chen were entirely distinct.
The reincarnation power Jiang Chen controlled focused on destruction and creation—the cycle of life and death within Heaven and Earth.
The reincarnation power Hou Tu wielded was centered on the rebirth of all souls, reshaping them at their very roots. She could transform a wild chicken into a phoenix or reduce a phoenix to a wild chicken—a power incomparably formidable.
At this mont, Taiyi had fallen victim to Hou Tu’s reincarnation Divine Ability. She forcibly altered his species, degrading the exalted Innate Saint Great Sun Golden Crow into a detested crow of the mundane world.
This was not an illusion but the pinnacle of transformative Divine Abilities.
