Up to this mont, his face was still filled with shock and disbelief.
Back then, when he lent the Innate Divine Swords, Yuan Tu and Abi, to Jiang Chen, his goal was for Jiang Chen to temper the sharpness of these swords with his three Innate Killing Swords, so they could gain the opportunity to ascend to Innate Treasures.
Heaven have rcy!
The goal of the Underworld River Ancestor was rely to grant the two swords the qualification for ascension to Innate Treasures. Then, he would use his essence blood to nurture the swords, allowing them to rge into one and ascend to Innate Treasures at once.
His idea was sound, yet he did not expect Jiang Chen to be so formidable, directly accomplishing the task and refining Yuan Tu and Abi into Innate Treasures.
This kind of thing typically only happened in the dreams of the Underworld River Ancestor, and even he knew it was impossible to achieve.
But this impossible feat had now beco reality, truly bringing him joy mingled with a dreamlike sensation.
It felt too unreal.
Compared to the excitent of the Underworld River Ancestor, the Upper Qing Saints remained much calr. Even as the four divine swords simultaneously ascended and beca more powerful, it didn’t cause any change in his expression.
This was because the Upper Qing Saints genuinely didn’t care about the Four Divine Swords anymore. The experience of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity made him fully realize that magic treasures and formations are re external forces; a cultivator ultimately relies on their own strength.
However powerful the magic treasures, they are less reliable than improving one’s own strength. Thus, even though the Honjan Daizu had already set him free, the Upper Qing Saints still didn’t reclaim the Four Divine Swords, allowing them to remain in the hands of the Golden Immortals of Chan Teaching.
This showed true indifference, indicating it didn’t matter in whose hands the Four Divine Swords were.
...
The supre sword intent pervaded as a terrifying killing intent swept across. At this mont, all the living beings in the Chaos World felt a chill in their bodies as if being stared at by a terrifying existence, shivering from deep in their souls.
Fortunately, the killing intent of the nine swords was not aid at them; otherwise, the living beings in the Chaos World might have been exterminated by the Innate Nine Swords at this mont.
The unification of the nine swords indeed held the divine power to eradicate all life between Heaven and Earth instantly!
Rumble!
The power of the nine swords grew ever stronger, causing the entire Abyss to roar, unable to withstand their might, already on the brink of shattering.
The next mont, the nine swords ascended into the sky, leaving the Abyss, hovering above the heavens, receiving the baptism of the Heavenly Dao.
Boom!
The sky, as blue as ink, exploded with terrifying thunder, like a cataclysmic flood of the Heavenly River, reversing into a colossal waterfall of the Nine Heavens. Infinite bolts of thunder surged, engulfing the floating Innate Nine Swords in mid-air.
This was not heavenly punishnt but rather the Heavenly Dao using the power of Celestial Thunder to baptize them, to fully integrate the Chaos Demigod’s power into their beings, thereby aiding their ascension to Innate Treasures.
The power of the nine swords was too imnse; even the Heavenly Dao understood that it could not prevent their ascension. It might as well forgo heavenly punishnt and fulfill their potential.
"The ascension of the nine swords may not be a good thing for ."
Watching the ascending Innate Nine Swords, Jiang Chen felt that this was not good news for him.
Before the nine swords ascended, he had to sacrifice his physical body rely to barely allow the nine swords to rge.
And now, with the nine swords all ascending to Innate Treasures, he feared that with his current strength, even sacrificing everything would not enable him to rge the nine swords again.
The stronger the nine swords, the harder it is to rge them.
It could be said that with all nine swords ascending to Innate Treasures, Jiang Chen’s supre thod of rging the nine swords to summon the Dao of killing between Heaven and Earth had been rendered obsolete.
The loss of a major thod was indeed not good news for Jiang Chen.
Especially when he was on the brink of erupting into battle with the Chaos Demigod, losing this supre thod made it truly difficult for him to feel happy.
"This is the Heavenly Will, gain so and lose so."
Jiang Chen sighed helplessly, having gained a few more Innate Treasures but lost a major ans of slaughter, it was hard to say whether this was good or bad.
...
While Jiang Chen felt helpless, on the other side, the many immortals of Chan Teaching were feeling miserable.
They were truly suffering! Not because they were miserable that the Four Divine Swords had ascended to Innate Treasures, but because they were miserable due to their own situation.
From the beginning, they knew that the Four Divine Swords did not belong to them, even if they refined them into a level equivalent to their life-bound magic treasures, the Four Divine Swords still did not belong to them.
As long as the Upper Qing Saints wished, they could summon the swords back at any ti.
Therefore, from the mont they obtained the Four Divine Swords, the many immortals of Chan Teaching did not regard them as their treasures but used them as tools for their cultivation improvent.
Thus, when using the Four Divine Swords, they were completely unrestrained, not cherishing them in the least, not caring if they would be damaged.
If it’s not yours, why feel hurt? The many immortals of Chan Teaching probably held such a mindset.
As a result, when the Four Divine Swords were taken by Jiang Chen, they only felt regret and did not feel heartache.
However, they had not imagined that losing the Four Divine Swords would have such a significant impact on them.
As the Four Divine Swords ascended, the many immortals of Chan Teaching were imdiately affected, a surge of Sha Qi arose from their bodies, murderous intent appeared above their heads, and black Qi flickered between their eyebrows.
The Golden Immortals of Chan Teaching were familiar with this scene, as it was how they appeared when they invoked the calamity of slaughter.
The Calamity of Slaughter!
For no apparent reason, they were dragged into the midst of a slaughter calamity again.
And judging by the abnormal phenonon on their bodies, this ti’s slaughter calamity seed to be countless tis more brutal than the Enshrinent Calamity they had previously experienced.
It was not for no reason!
Soon the many immortals of Chan Teaching guessed the reason why they were caught in the slaughter calamity.
It was the Four Divine Swords. They were affected by the Four Divine Swords, which led to their entanglent in the slaughter calamity.
Previously, they cultivated by eradicating the Sha Qi from the Four Divine Swords, thus achieving significant results, but they also caused the Four Divine Swords to be tainted with their aura.
Now that the Four Divine Swords had ascended, severing all cause and effect, they simply cut them off indirectly.
Isn’t it the eradication of Sha Qi? For every bit you eradicated, I will repay you double. Thus, during the ascension, the Four Divine Swords released a wisp of Sha Qi, which rged into the bodies of the many immortals of Chan Teaching to settle the cause and effect.
This wisp of Sha Qi ant nothing to the Four Divine Swords, but it could certainly claim the lives of the many immortals of Chan Teaching, plunging them into the slaughter calamity in an instant.
And what was the upcoming slaughter calamity in the Chaos World? It was the Catastrophe of the Chaos World’s Resurgence!
This calamity ant either a chaotic battle among the Great Divine Transcendents or among the Chaos Demigods. The fate of the many immortals of Chan Teaching involved in it could only be imagined as nothing short of ten deaths and no life.
"Jiang Chen!"
"You truly are pushing it too far!"
Upon perceiving the changes in his disciples, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign imdiately beca furious.
He felt that Jiang Chen had sched against his disciples, which led to their entanglent in the slaughter calamity, and he couldn’t contain his rage as he furiously questioned Jiang Chen.
At this mont, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign truly felt that Jiang Chen was pushing it too far. He had already taken a step back, proactively relinquishing the Four Divine Swords, yet Jiang Chen remained relentless, refusing to let go.
Was it because they believed he dared not turn his back?
"What?"
Jiang Chen felt sowhat baffled, really not knowing what he had done again to cause the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to be so furious. Logically, he had not provoked the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign recently, right?
"You’re still pretending?"
Seeing Jiang Chen feign ignorance, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign beca even angrier, seemingly ready to act directly.
At this ti, Jiang Chen had a sense of what had transpired. He glanced at the many immortals of Chan Teaching and then said with a blank expression, "This matter truly has nothing to do with ; they brought this upon themselves."
Saying this, Jiang Chen paused slightly, then looked at the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and continued, "Ultimately, the cause of this matter lies with you."
"Heavenly Sovereign as a Saint, haven’t you heard it’s difficult to deceive Heaven? The trickery of passing tribulation is not the righteous way; it’s unsustainable."
