Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!-Chapter 945 - 854: The Eternal Darkness

Now, all that was left was to send the Forbidden Master's bones into the mix, absorb the aura of the Evil Corpse, and thus facilitate the nurturing of the Forbidden Master's bones.

Upon hearing those words, Ao Wushuang immediately felt uneasy... Looking at the Wu Huang Realm ahead of him, he hesitated greatly.

...

Elsewhere, also outside the Wu Huang Realm in a certain void,

an elder's complexion became extremely solemn, gazed at the Wu Huang Realm with eyes filled with dread.

"This Wu Huang Realm, indeed harbors ghosts... Even the Sword Master Evil Corpse has appeared here..."

"These Ban Explorers are indeed very shrewd... Fortunately, I did not rashly go there, or I probably would have died in this realm."

He felt a shiver of fear.

But immediately afterward, he suddenly felt a chill.

"Damn it, who exactly is using my name for their agenda?!"

He was truly panicking.

After all, from the news he got from Changsun Bumie, the Ban Explorers' big movements this time... seemed to be aimed against him!

He couldn't help but recall once again the blame he had been burdened with...

Obtaining the Martial Sovereign Method, killing the Martial Clan Spirit King, destroying the Martial Clan Dao Field, and even proclaiming to nurture the Martial Venerate of this era... one accusation was bigger than the next.

"I hope the truth comes to light soon; I, Lao Wu, really don't want to carry this kind of blame any longer!"

He mumbled to himself.

If he were burdened with a bit more blame, who knew how crazy the Ban Explorers and the Sacrificial Temple would get in their pursuit of him!

...

In the True Ancestor World.

"The Ultimate Celestial Phenomenon of Sword Dao... Sword Venerable has truly appeared."

Many experts of the Dugu Clan were extremely excited.

"Hopefully, Dugu Songsi and the others... can bring back the law of the Sword Venerable!"

"Hehe, the Chen Clan has already been restrained by us; the Dugu Clan is his only descendant, he will certainly pass on the method to reach the heavens to us!"

"Uh, the premise is not to let those three from Chen Yue encounter Sword Venerable, lest he discerns the truth..."

The crowd was anticipative.

In the underground prison.

"This is the summoning of the path to the heavens through Sword Dao..."

In Chen Xiaoran's weary and haggard eyes, an unparalleled excitement flickered.

...

And at this moment,

In the Wu Huang Realm.

The towering sword might had dissipated.

Above the void, the silhouette of the Ultimate Hall of Sword Dao was vaguely visible, but it was ultimately fading away slowly.

The Wanli Wuji Mountains were now flattened by the great battle that had just occurred.

The earth was riddled with cracks like canyons, forming many terrifying abysses.

Yin Xu'an sat on the ground, took out his wine flask from his waist, and drank deeply, still catching his breath, and looking up at Dugu Yuqing in the sky, he said rather indignantly,

"They say surrendering is half-defeated, is that not enough?"

"You've comprehended the Supreme Sword Dao, triggering the Ultimate Celestial Phenomenon... Do you feel any thrill in winning against me, huh? Tell me, do you feel any thrill?"

"Is there any thrill?!"

He took another large swig, speaking in a calm and collected manner without any embarrassment or awe.

Because the path he walked in Sword Dao was precisely the pursuit of following one's heart.

Being natural without restraint, to speak as one thinks.

Dugu Yuqing stood in midair, and upon hearing this, could not help but ponder for a moment before saying,

"Although there's no thrill, but just simply wanting to beat you, is that wrong?"

Upon hearing these words, Yin Xu'an was so angered that he sprayed out the wine from his mouth and tossed the flask aside, saying,

"I'll be damned... I'm done with this drink; it's not worth it anyway!"

Dugu Yuqing smiled faintly and then turned his head to look towards the other side—the Sword Master Evil Corpse!

The Sword Master Evil Corpse knelt silently on the ground.

He used the long sword in his hand to support his body.

At that moment, the grey mist swirled in his empty eyes, and his stone-covered face seemed to be contemplating, struggling.

"The path of Sword Dao... it's actually possible..."

"No... I witnessed with my own eyes, that ghost who becomes one with the sword, lurking on the path of Sword Dao cultivation, those who approach... will surely be devoured!"

"There is no future for Sword Dao... nor is there a future for any other path..."

At this moment, his voice trembled with doubt.

He questioned himself.

Could it be that he was wrong all those years ago?

Could it be that he was the one who had taken the wrong path, the one who became a slave to darkness?

At that moment, as he questioned himself and remembered the past, endless images appeared around him!

It was a world ablaze with the fires of war, shrouded in grey mist, a time when heaven and earth were dark, and a long sword that cut through ten thousand li of the sky!

Numerous strong beings from the World of Grey Mist attacked in hordes, but where the sword light reached, it defeated all foes!

Even the vast Sea of Grey Mist nearly lost its sound in the process.

In the World of Grey Mist, more grey paths manifested, returning from the unknown to suppress all.

The sword light cleaved through the Sky Domain, as the fearless Sword Dao sprawled in the direction of all paths, a heroic figure, his body smeared with grey blood.

"Who dares to challenge me to a battle?"

The Sword Venerable held his sword in hand, hovering uncertainly; he looked at those many grey paths, decided and fearless, and said indifferently,

"My Realm may be weak, but if you wish to cross, you'll have to pay a tremendous price... I may sacrifice my life, but not without taking one or two with me..."

"Who will join me in embracing death!?"

He shouted out loudly, his sword light surging!

"Merely at the High Road Level, having just glimpsed the truth of cultivation, you dare to challenge us?!"

Among the shadowy figures of a certain gray road, a hand suddenly reached out, unleashing an ancient and overwhelming power that made the entire Grey Mist Sea tremble, nearly annihilating everything in its path!

And before this giant gray hand, Sword Venerable was not afraid. He summoned all his strength and, with great force, slashed at the hand with his sword!

Boom!

The Sword Venerable's blade instantly exploded, scattering like stars across the sky and dissipating into the endless Sea of Grey Mist.

But that hand was also slashed away!

Even that gray road quivered slightly.

Sword Venerable stumbled back several steps, blood at the corners of his mouth!

"Ants... I underestimated you," a muffled voice resounded from that road.

"Your sword is shattered. How will you block me now?"

Yet Sword Venerable looked up, the light of the sword shining thousands of feet in his eyes. His upright figure emanated an immeasurable sword intent, his essence blood burning, the sword intent surging!

"Fight with my life as my sword, dare you take the challenge?!"

He stared down that road!

At that moment, the road fell silent.

Sword Venerable's sword had shattered, but wielding his life as a sword, he still possessed immense deterrence.

The numerous gray roads flickered uncertainly and yet, in the end, no one dared to truly cross the boundary.

His life as the sword deterred the many roads!

All the gray roads retreated.

Sword Venerable turned away and with a slash of the hand, cut through the Grey Mist Sea!

An ancient path slowly emerged.

Without hesitation, Sword Venerable stepped onto that ancient path.

As he set foot on it, a black pathway suddenly surfaced.

In that black pathway, Sword Venerable immediately saw a certain scene.

That scene was strikingly similar to what Sound Venerable and Martial Venerate had seen.

It was a pitch-black land where all light had vanished, as if it were the end of all worlds or the origin of the universe, cold and dead, enshrouded in a black fog.

The endless black fog coalesced into a giant hand, gathering to form a throne of Grey Mist. Upon the throne sat an indescribable being!

That being, cold and indifferent, seemed to reign supreme over all life, controlling all paths in the world.

Seeing this, Sword Venerable was taken aback because the one sitting on the throne...

It was actually...

Him?!

"Could it be that he... has become the king of darkness?!"

At this moment, a flash of horror crossed Sword Venerable's eyes, and his Dao heart quivered!

If he... has become twisted, mad... the king amid the darkness...

Then what use were all their efforts and struggles?

Faith had crumbled, the guiding light extinguished.

"No..."

Sword Venerable decisively raised his eyes and shouted,

"I refuse to believe... I refuse to believe he would fail, he... has never been defeated in his life!"

"Demons and specters, dare to trouble my Dao heart!"

"At the end of the road, all is but illusion. With one slash of my sword, I sever it!"

He roared with fury. At this moment, he exhausted the strength of his entire life, brought his hands together, and slashed forward!

His sword light blazed with ten thousand feet of brilliance, using his body as the blade, his sword sundered the heavens and earth.

In that instant, his fearless Dao heart came to fruition; he broke through his realm!

He... had transcended the High Road Level, and at that moment, his Dao eye became complete, glimpsing the next realm!

His Daoist Scenery emerged, a land shrouded in Chaos Fog, seeming both illusory and real.

Within the Path-Scenic Land, there laid an unyielding road, formed from Sword Venerable's countless insights.

Now, before the path enveloped by the Chaos Fog, Sword Venerable suddenly beheld a certain vision—

In his Daoist Scenery, an unspeakably terrifying entity had emerged!

"No..."

Having just broken through, in the summit of his peak, Sword Venerable let out an ancient cry of despair!

He sat down abruptly, his eyes filled with sorrow and hopelessness.

"He truly has turned into a ghost..."

"Guarding every path of cultivation..."

"Devouring everything... Haha... beyond the Ascendant Path, I have not encountered Immortals, Saints, or Gods... I have only seen a ghost, his shadow, his night terror..."

Dominating the world, with life as the sword, repelling the many gray paths, Sword Venerable was now wailing mournfully!

Because, within his Daoist Scenery, he had seen something extremely terrifying...

The visions on the black pathway might have been illusions or phantoms, but within the Daoist Scenery, how could it be false...

"The darkness endures through ages, ahead there's no light..."

"The darkness endures through ages, ahead there's no light!"

In his moment of utter despair, deep within the black pathway, suddenly, a hand appeared.

It gently pointed out a finger.

In front of Sword Venerable's chest, a horrific blood hole appeared instantaneously!

Within the bloody hole, the sword intent was violent and chaotic.

Sword Venerable... perished on the spot.

Tears still fresh in his eyes!

...

All of this was a vision from Sword Venerable's past life, right before his death.

And at this moment, atop the vast lands of the Wu Huang Realm, his body trembled, shrouded in grey mist.

He struggled, hesitated, pondered desperately.

"No... If his ghost guards every path, how could I see Sword Dao's Ultimate Hall today?"

"Have I been deceived?!"

Sword Venerable's voice was almost fully awakened!

However, at that very moment.

The sword in his hand resonated with Sword Venerable's emotions, trembling and then suddenly shattering with a bang!

At the hilt, a faintly dark True Bone suddenly emitted a mysterious light.

In an instant, a world that seemed both illusory and real appeared as if descending from the ethereal realm, arriving in this real world!

"Not good!"

Yin Xu'an saw this and his expression changed slightly, saying,

"Whose True Bone? It actually smuggled across the Heavenly Abyss?!"

Elsewhere, even Big Black Dog narrowed its dog eyes slightly and said coldly,

"Quite audacious... Not only to bait the Sword Master Evil Corpse but also to peer into this realm through the Daoist Scenery?!"

...
