Chapter 653: Chapter 653
The Heavenly Dao raised her hand, and a crisp sound, like glass shattering, echoed through the air.
The gray world regained its color, and frozen time began to flow again.
Countless beings in the Nine Provinces looked up, and although they couldn’t see her form, they could feel the immense pressure of her spiritual energy.
It was as gentle as water, yet it suppressed all things in the world.
But unlike the Heavenly Dao, although this spiritual energy held a certain majesty, it wasn’t directed at any living being in the Nine Provinces.
After all, she was the Primordial Mother, the ‘mother’ of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. All living beings were her children, so she wouldn’t target anyone.
In the Nine Provinces, there were many who violated the rules of heaven and earth, who defied the will of the Heavenly Dao. If every little mistake was counted, then the Forbidden Zone Lords would have to purge far too many living beings.
Although the Heavenly Dao’s initial purpose wasn’t to purge all living beings, the easy execution of the Eternal Lord had instilled a sense of ‘fear’ in some of the Forbidden Zone Lords.
They just wanted to use the opportunity of expanding the forbidden rules to absorb the essence of some living beings for their own use.
However, with the Primordial Mother’s descent, the forbidden rules no longer expanded. The expressions of the several Forbidden Zone Lords were blank as they looked in the direction of the Two Polarities Sect, their faces a mixture of confusion, fear, and astonishment.
At the same time, in the Immortal Dynasty of Yu State, Luo Tan stood on a terrace, gazing at the distant sky. Although ordinary people couldn’t see anything, she could clearly feel a vast, sea-like will descending from the depths of the Two Polarities Sect.
At the same time, in the Garden of Heavenly Harmony of the Two Polarities Sect, Lin Ling, who had been in seclusion, seemed to sense something. Her long, curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her clear and bright red eyes.
In the adjacent room, the Princess was also alarmed by this Primordial Spiritual Energy and abruptly opened her eyes.
The cauldron within her body was already on the verge of breaking through, as if she could transcend at any moment.
However, at this moment, the Princess was captivated by this Primordial Spiritual Energy. She subconsciously looked up at the window and murmured, “What is this spiritual energy…? It doesn’t seem to belong to the Nine Provinces, yet I feel a strange sense of familiarity…”
Just as she spoke, Lin Ling, in her white dress, gracefully walked to the windowsill, her red eyes fixed on the back mountain of Two Polarities Peak.
A rare, emotional glint appeared in her red eyes.
Having been with Shang Yanfei for so long, Lin Ling never knew that she was the Primordial Mother.
A terrifying thunderclap echoed through the sky.
Lin Ling and the Princess looked up almost simultaneously and saw the gathering tribulation clouds.
The Transcendence Heavenly Tribulation had descended.
Regina stepped out of a spatial rift, her gaze on the Eastern Continent, her eyes filled with surprise.
Not long ago, Mu Zhian had written to them, informing them of the Heavenly Dao’s impending descent.
But even though the Heavenly Dao’s spiritual sense covered the entire Nine Provinces, it would only detect the presence of the Southern Wilderness God, Xue Yi, not Regina, the ‘vessel’ Xue Yi had prepared for herself.
Although, when Mu Zhian mentioned the Heavenly Dao and the Primordial Mother in his letter, Regina had a premonition that the Primordial Mother might still be alive, and in the Nine Provinces.
However, now that she knew the Primordial Mother’s identity, she still felt a sense of disbelief, even shock.
“Did he say in the letter when we can act?” Xue Yi’s voice echoed in Regina’s mind.
Regina said in a low voice, “When he returns.”
“I think it will be soon.”
At this moment, under the sky of the Nine Provinces, a golden light swirled around the dark clouds. Heavy, lead-colored clouds rolled in from the distance, as if covering the entire sky.
Rumbling thunder echoed, two immense spiritual energies clashing, tribulation clouds brewing.
At this moment, both the Forbidden Zone Lords and the great powers of the Nine Provinces felt an unprecedented sense of awe.
This awe came partly from the Heavenly Dao, and partly from Shang Yanfei in the depths of the Two Polarities Sect.
Even the Forbidden Zone Lords, who had lived for eons, had only ever felt such terrifying spiritual pressure from the Heavenly Dao.
They never thought there was an existence in the world that could rival the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao stood proudly under the sky, a black dress formed from spiritual energy outlining her graceful figure, the spiritual energy swirling around her feet. Her jade-like skin made her appear holy and captivating. Fınd the newest release on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
But the Primordial Mother was just as holy. Although she hadn’t manifested her true body, but was facing the Heavenly Dao with a mortal body, her aura was just as immense.
The Heavenly Dao narrowed her eyes and finally whispered the name of the enemy who had isolated her from the Nine Provinces.
“Heavenly Dao, long time no see.”
Shang Yanfei also said softly.
The two stood quietly under the sky, far apart, yet every word they spoke could be clearly heard by the other.
And the words they spoke seemed to transform into a vast spiritual energy, spreading outwards like ripples, creating countless spiritual energy storms in the space.
They looked at each other without speaking.
Just their gazes meeting seemed to condense a killing intent in the space, constantly compressing and brewing, making it difficult to breathe.
The entire world seemed to tremble.
“I didn’t expect you to still be alive. But in your weakened state, can you really stop me?”
The Heavenly Dao quickly raised her eyelids, a charming smile on her breathtakingly beautiful, holy face.
She could sense that Shang Yanfei was not the Shang Yanfei of the past. Although the current Shang Yanfei was still not to be underestimated, she didn’t have the astonishing aura of the Primordial Mother from the beginning of time.
Back then, even the Heavenly Dao couldn’t do anything to her and could only temporarily avoid her.
Shang Yanfei extended her hand. Within the black mist, nine immortal gold chains swirled around her.
Those nine immortal gold chains had each been set with a formation, sealed in nine different locations in this world, to restrain her power and prevent this mortal body from collapsing under her spiritual sense.
She casually toyed with the immortal gold chain in her hand and said in a gentle tone, “What’s the point of being strong? To me, as long as he loves me, that’s more important than anything.”
The Heavenly Dao was stunned for a moment, then, as if hearing a joke, she couldn’t help but let out a pleasant, silver-bell-like laugh, “Loves you? Do you really think he still loves you?”
“Why don’t you guess where he is now? And who he was with just now?”
The Heavenly Dao’s eyes grew cold, but her smile remained sweet and beautiful, “Mu Lang has been with me all along.”
As if to deliberately provoke Shang Yanfei, she showed a sweet and sarcastic smile, “If it weren’t for dealing with you, we would probably be living happily in the Firmament by now.”
“Mmm… but I can see that he’s still thinking about his Dao Companions,” she placed a fingertip against her red lips, thought for a moment, and continued, “After I absorb your essence, I’ll go to the Heavenly Court and completely sever his thoughts.”
Shang Yanfei’s expression remained incredibly gentle, as if embracing all things. She said softly, “Have you ever considered that if it weren’t for your possessiveness, if you didn’t want to completely control the rules of heaven and earth, perhaps you could have stayed by his side all along, instead of being separated from him by the Nine Provinces?”
The Heavenly Dao looked at Shang Yanfei with a puzzled expression, “As long as the rules of heaven and earth are not destroyed, my personality will sooner or later be purified by the rules. How could I be with Mu Lang?”
“And also, everything in the Nine Provinces is mine, so Mu Lang is naturally also mine. Why should I share him with others?”
“No…” The Heavenly Dao quickly shook her head gently, a seductive smile on her face, “Even now, without using force, he’s finally willing to stay by my side.”
She looked up at Shang Yanfei with a smile, “It’s a pity you couldn’t see how he relied on me just now, how he desperately wanted to kiss me.”
“The Spiritual Energy of the Innate Celestial Furnace is truly wonderful.”
She thought Shang Yanfei would be angry hearing this, because she also loved Mu Zhian deeply.
However, a playful smile appeared on her face. She slightly raised her proud chin, looking down at her, as if looking at a loser.
The Heavenly Dao suddenly stopped smiling, her eyes sharpening, her beautiful eyes fixed on the Primordial Mother, “What are you laughing at?”
“I haven’t kissed him much.”
Shang Yanfei’s eyes were gentle, and she said in an incredibly gentle tone, “I’ve just possessed his lips, and even his body.”
“My body is now full of his Spiritual Energy… If I’m willing, I should be able to have his child at any time, right?”
“I heard the Heavenly Dao’s will controls the information of all living beings in the Nine Provinces…”
She smiled brightly, “After my and his child is born, why don’t you come and give the child a name?”
The Heavenly Dao’s gaze abruptly darkened.
In the sky, a vast tribulation cloud quietly descended, as if showing the Heavenly Dao’s jealousy and anger towards the Primordial Mother.
The tribulation cloud transformed into breathtakingly powerful lightning dragons, shooting towards the depths of Two Polarities Peak.
However, Shang Yanfei just looked at her gently and said softly, “Actually, you’ve overlooked one thing.”
“To stop the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow’s causality, I did indeed expend a lot of effort. The current me is indeed not as strong as I was in the beginning of time.”
Shang Yanfei paused slightly.
The Heavenly Dao suddenly faintly sensed that the Spiritual Energy that was originally under its control, as if turning against it, was actually converging towards Shang Yanfei.
The thousands of rules that had been prostrating at her feet suddenly became ineffective.
Shang Yanfei slowly raised her eyelids, mandalas seeming to slowly bloom in her pale golden eyes.
“I’ve become weaker, that doesn’t mean you’ve become stronger.”
Faintly, the sound of shattering chains could be heard.
Then, one after another, the sound of shattering chains came.
Within the black mist, the nine immortal gold chains completely shattered!
The Heavenly Dao’s gaze abruptly fixed on Shang Yanfei.
To be precise, on Shang Yanfei’s back.
Mu Zhian had appeared behind Shang Yanfei at some point, a black box in his hand.
As Shang Yanfei’s body was sucked into the black box, her spiritual sense, like a wisp of green smoke, quietly drifted along the Path to Immortality at the center of the World Sea.
Until the moment her spiritual sense drifted into the Heavenly Court, the Primordial Mother in the depths of the Heavenly Palace silently opened her eyes.
