Chapter 932: Ancestor of the Human Race, The Situation Reversed
Editor: Henyee Translations
As the battle of the Mahayana Daolords intensified, Qin Shenwu and his companions found themselves increasingly hard-pressed.
They had pushed the rules of the Dao to their limits, and each clash released energy waves potent enough to destroy or give birth to a minor world.
The once void and profound outer domain was now dominated by various Dao rules, resembling star rivers tearing through the deep sky.
The Daolords seemed to be battling at the very edge of the universe, grinding even the Dao itself to nothingness.
“Cackle cackle, what Five Elements incarnations, all shall become my nourishment!”
The Hundred-Eyed Abyssal Daolord and another abyssal Daolord had nearly shattered Qin Shenwu’s Five Elements avatars.
In their assault, they pounced onto the Five Elements avatars, their flesh swelling and forming a layer of fleshly garment that tightly wrapped around the avatars.
After a series of bizarre twists and contractions, they devoured the Dao rules of the Five Elements, emerging from within the avatars and turning them into a heap of dead matter.
The ability of the Mahayana abyssal demons could even erode and devour Dao rules.
Thus, the two abyssal Daolords, following the same method in their exchanges, devoured all of Qin Shenwu’s Five Element avatars, putting him at a sudden disadvantage against two opponents.
Meanwhile, in the void battlefield, the Daolord of the Divine Shadow Gate was engaged in combat with the Daolord of the eldars.
They maneuvered through the void, each move fraught with deadly peril, fighting solely on their understanding of Dao rules and mastery of the void.
Clearly, it was difficult to determine a victor in their evenly matched and tense battle.
At the same time, the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect quickly faced a counterattack from the Daolords of the demon beasts and deepsea nomads.
On one side was the brutally fierce Daolord of the deepsea nomads, and on the other was the ancient and powerful Daolord of the Sky-devouring Serpent Clan.
Together, these two made it exceedingly difficult for the seasoned Daolord of the Pantheon Sect to fend off their attacks.
The demon beast Daolord wielded the devouring power to its peak, capable of making everything intangible, even grinding time and space to achieve terrifying speeds.
The massive Sky-devouring Serpent danced wildly, devouring the rule forces unfolded by the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect.
Under such suppression, his power was reduced by at least a fifth.
The Daolord of the deepsea nomads wielded the Trident of the Abyssal Sea to transform the outer domain into a dark ocean, stirring up storms with his movements and overturning heaven and earth.
“You cannot escape. I’ll give you one more chance, submit to us, and you might live,” the Daolord of the Sky-devouring Serpent Clan said while suppressing the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect, attempting to tempt him.
However, it was clear that sparing the Daolord of the Floodgate Realm was not really an option.
Only with the death of these top beings could they truly rule the Floodgate Realm with peace of mind, even potentially turning against the abyssal demons later.
“A Mahayana Daolord, yet so naive. Do you truly think you’ve already won?” retorted the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect sarcastically.
“Oh? You think you three still have a way out today? Today, if you…”
The Daolord of the demon beasts was about to scoff but suddenly stopped his speech.
Because, suddenly, a terrifying presence appeared deep in the void.
At that instant, both the abyssal demons and the Daolords of the three realms furrowed their brows.
could it be?
A terrifying force sliced through the void, and a massive World Gate suddenly swung open.
From within emerged a towering figure, whose formidable aura instantly enveloped everything.
“Ha ha ha, demon beasts, deepsea nomads, abyssal demons, today marks your end!”
Rays of dawn pierced through the World Gate, illuminating the newcomer.
Behind the two elderly figures, immensely majestic Dharma Forms trailed, their presence astonishingly rushing towards the battlefield.
“Did you think, abyssal demons, foreign races, that only you knew the art of scheming?”
With the powerful aura drawing near, the Daolord of the Pantheon Sect couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
It turned out that before they initiated this grand battle of the Mahayana, they had already prepared a contingency plan.
These two Mahayana Daolords were actually the hidden powerhouses of the Floodgate Realm.
They were ancient beings within the realm, unable to ascend to Immortal Realm for certain reasons, thus choosing to seal themselves away, waiting for a time of great calamity or a turning point for the Floodgate Realm.
With the appearance of these two new Mahayana Daolords, the countenances of the abyssal demons and the Daolords of the three foreign races turned solemn.
These two human Mahayana Daolords exuded an aura far more profound and terrifying than the others, carrying with them an air not of this spiritual realm.
“Ancestor Limitless, Ancestor Heavenlight!”
Qin Shenwu and the others momentarily withdrew from the battlefield, saluting the two elders from afar.
The elders nodded, then turned their gaze towards the abyssal demons and the Daolords of the foreign races on the battlefield.
They were once invincible beings of countless generations past, unable to ascend due to cultivation issues, hence remaining until this era.
Such secrets were only privy to beings at the Daolord level of the Floodgate Realm, who had to address these two as ancestors.
This respect was not just due to their seniority but also their terrifying power.
They were the true pinnacle of Mahayana, even bordering on the existence of half-immortals.
“How is this possible, such beings should have ascended to the Immortal Realm long ago!” roared the Hundred-Eyed Demonic Daolord, incredulous.
As someone who had seen thousands of worlds, he could tell that the two elders were extraordinary.
“Hmph, our ascension may very well hinge on the likes of your lives! You demons, today you shall meet your end!” declared the one known as Ancestor Limitless.
His cultivation of the Limitless Dao was incredibly dominant, marred only by a single flaw – the difficulty of achieving immortality.
This path of Dao demanded exceptionally unique talents, which Ancestor Limitless did not naturally possess.
Despite cultivating forcefully with his prodigious aptitude, the threshold to immortality remained insurmountable for him.
Thus, he sealed himself away for tens of thousands of years, waiting for the right moment.
For beings like him, the best path to ascension was arguably through accruing merit by achieving great deeds.
Slaying the abyssal demons today might indeed offer him a glimmer of hope for ascension.
“And as for you, foreign races, your ancestors once submitted to our Floodgate Realm. Are you now seeking to defy us?”
Ancestor Heavenlight also slowly spoke, unveiling ancient secrets.
Once, the Floodgate Realm was the sole powerhouse among the four realms, suppressing the others.
It was only after the rise of these realms and the ascension of human powerhouses that they found an opportunity to surge in strength.
At these words, the Daolord of the Sky-devouring Serpent Clan’s face turned ashen.
As the leader of the oldest clan within the Tianyao Realm, he was privy to these ancient secrets.
However, the Daolords of the Changhai Realm and Tianling Realm were filled with confusion.
It was only upon seeing the demon beast Daolord’s expression that they became aware of such ancient secrets for the first time.
