Chapter 673 Creates a Miracle: The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife Instantly Kills the Dark Prodigy!
At the top of the ladder to heaven, the eternal silence was broken.
That figure stood before the hazy glow of the celestial palace, seemingly becoming the sole focus of heaven and earth.
Below, on the endless stone steps.
All the young talents who are still struggling forward, no matter how illustrious their background or how extraordinary their physique, have to stop at this moment.
Looking up at that unreachable height, my heart was filled with turbulent emotions that were hard to calm down.
"Ye Tian... he really made it to the very end..."
A holy son from Mount Lihuo, clad in a fiery battle suit, murmured to himself.
He stopped at the seventieth step, his body on the verge of collapse, knowing full well the terror of the subsequent steps and that he could not continue.
Gazing at the white-clad figure reaching the summit, my eyes were filled with complex emotions and profound awe.
"Throughout history, countless brilliant talents have perished on this level, their bones turning into withered Dao seals. Yet he managed to reach the summit, creating an unprecedented miracle!"
Beside her, a goddess surrounded by moonlight, with a cool and aloof temperament like a fairy from the moon palace, whispered.
Her beautiful eyes sparkled, yet a hint of sadness remained undisguised.
She was confident in her unparalleled talent, yet she didn't even have the chance to witness the final scene.
"It's not just about reaching the summit. Did you all witness his methods along the way? That chaotic fist light, and those five divine swords, can even use supernatural powers to conjure chaos and melt everything!"
"He's practically a walking furnace of chaos!"
A sharp-eyed person exclaimed, revealing part of what they had seen.
"And then there's the Kunpeng's extreme speed; with a single flap of its wings, it tears through the void. It's definitely one of the ten most powerful and fierce techniques from the ancient times."
Moreover, he later obtained the Kunpeng Supreme Technique, one of the supreme techniques of the Northern Sea, making him even more powerful and formidable!
"His blood and energy were so vigorous that they soared to the heavens, like a divine dragon. He recovered instantly from his injuries, radiating golden light."
He then further refined the blood of immortal beings and ancient gods and demons, achieving an even greater level of physical invincibility!
The murmurs of discussion surged like a tide on every step of the Heavenly Ladder, recounting Ye Tian's legend.
Envy, jealousy, awe, curiosity...
A mix of emotions swirled in the hearts of every prodigy.
Especially the young prodigies from the dark royal families, whose auras were cold and sinister, had faces so gloomy they could drip water.
"Having just passed the test of the hundred steps of the Heavenly Ladder, and fought against ancient gods and demons, chaotic heroes, and extraterrestrial demonic marks, he is probably far from his peak condition now!"
A cold glint flashed deep within his eyes, concealing a murderous intent.
Any opportunity Ye Tian obtains is enough to drive them crazy and make them want to plunder it.
But I'm still hesitating.
Compared to the commotion on the Heavenly Ladder, the War God Academy's welcoming plaza, suspended in the sea of clouds below, was a different story.
The atmosphere was both heavy and intensely heated.
Dozens of elderly men dressed in ancient attire, exuding an aura as profound as the sea, stood in front.
At this moment, everyone was excited, their faces were shocked, and they couldn't believe it.
They are all elders and elite instructors of the War God Academy.
Each of them was once a powerful figure who commanded respect in their region, having witnessed countless storms and rises like shooting stars.
However, at this moment, their bodies trembled slightly, and a terrifying light flashed in their eyes.
Staring intently at the sky, the enormous water mirror that should have displayed the final scene was now a complete mess.
There was only a hazy celestial light and the outline of the palace; no trace of Ye Tian's movements within the sacred palace, nor any conversation between Ye Tian and the spirit of the Heavenly Ladder, could be seen.
However, none of the elders expressed any dissatisfaction with this.
"Success...An unprecedented feat!"
An elder with white hair and beard, holding a dragon bone cane, spoke in a hoarse voice, so excited that even the cane trembled slightly.
"Reaching the top of the Heavenly Ladder symbolizes the ultimate perfection; this young man's talent is beyond the scope of the word 'prodigy'!"
"The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife chooses its master, the Kunpeng Technique manifests in the world, and the indestructible blood and qi soar to the heavens... Now, having ascended the Heavenly Ladder once more and gained the recognition of the Immortal Palace, the depth of his destiny and the prosperity of his fortune can only be described as defying the heavens!"
Another elder, with a slender face and eyes that seemed to hold the birth and death of stars, spoke up.
His tone was filled with inexplicable emotion and profound shock.
"Heavenly Blessing Academy, the world is in turmoil, and a great calamity is imminent. It needs people like these who are born to face the calamity and hold up the sky and the sea!"
"As expected of the young master of the eternal Ye family, a legend of the Eternal Immortal Realm!"
Some of the more passionate elders had already seen a more distant future and were filled with excitement.
They understood far better than the young prodigies what reaching the top of the Heavenly Ladder meant. It was not only the ultimate proof of strength, but also the chance to obtain the flesh and blood of immortal beings and great opportunities.
It may even touch upon the secrets of the core of heaven and earth, and be related to some ancient heritage that has long been lost in the dust of time.
Just as the entire world was in a state of great turmoil and discussions were in full swing because of Ye Tian's ascent to the top.
boom! ! !
An indescribable roar suddenly erupted from the base of the ladder to heaven!
This sound transcended the mundane, containing the roar of the Great Dao and the magnificent meaning of the changing of eras, instantly sweeping across the eight wastelands and six directions!
The entire towering stairway to heaven bears witness to countless legends and tales of blood and tears.
At that moment, an incredibly violent tremor erupted!
The mottled ancient bloodstains, deep sword marks and knife scars, and mysterious Daoist runes on the stone steps seemed to be infused with immortal vitality in an instant, and all of them bloomed with billions of brilliant rays of light!
"what happened?"
"The Heavenly Ladder... the Heavenly Ladder is shaking violently!"
All the prodigies on the stone steps, including Su Chen, the Yama Prince, and the Dark Abyss Demon Prince, felt their feet sink into the void, regardless of which step they were on.
An irresistible, gentle yet vast power enveloped my entire body.
The next moment, light and shadow shifted, and space changed. By the time they came to their senses, they had all been transferred to the reception plaza below, where they gathered with the academy elders and other young prodigies.
Still shaken, the group exchanged bewildered and horrified glances.
They instinctively looked up at the sky and immediately saw a sight they would never forget.
The ladder to heaven, which stretched across the sky and symbolized the supreme trial, was crumbling inch by inch!
But instead of collapsing into rubble and dust, it transformed into the purest and most fundamental fragments of the laws!
Countless ancient and mysterious runes, like immortal spirits breaking free from eternal constraints.
It shoots out from every inch of the stone steps, weaving together into a magnificent and boundless rainbow of light!
Crimson glow, orange radiance, golden light, azure waves, cyan light, blue flames, purple mist...
Myriad divine rays flowed and surged, while chaotic mists billowed and surged, and the heavenly sounds of the Great Dao resounded throughout.
It was as if a grand ceremony was being held to worship heaven and earth and to pay tribute to the ancient times!
"The Heavenly Ladder... has transformed into the Dao?!"
The knowledgeable successor of the ancient religion exclaimed in shock, his face filled with disbelief.
Transformation into the Dao is the dissipation of a cultivator's Dao fruit and its return to heaven and earth. How could an inanimate object, especially a divine creation like the Heavenly Ladder that connects heaven and earth, spontaneously transform into the Dao?
However, what shocked them even more was the sight that almost made them stop breathing.
The countless celestial runes, imbued with the laws of the Great Dao, hovered in the sky for a moment before seemingly receiving a supreme summons from the unseen realm.
They all turned in unison, like ten thousand rivers flowing into the sea, or like paying homage to a supreme monarch, transforming into a torrent.
They surged toward the only figure still standing at the end of the Heavenly Ladder—Ye Tian!
"This is?"
Ye Tian's eyes were indifferent, his body was covered in dazzling runes, and his blood and qi were surging.
Thousands of divine lights and endless runes were like refined immortal gold finding the core of a magnet.
They rushed into Ye Tian's body in a frenzy!
In an instant, Ye Tian was engulfed by endless immortal light.
It seemed to have become an enormous cocoon of light, a vortex of the Tao, and the source of the Dharma.
Every pore on my body opened wide, and every cell greedily devoured these magnificent gifts from the ancient past.
His aura surged and transformed at a visible speed, his body radiated a precious glow, and his Daoist essence was naturally formed.
It was as if a god who had been sleeping since the beginning of time had awakened and returned to his place.
"This, this is..."
The elders of the War God Academy completely lost their composure.
He was so moved that tears streamed down his face, and his body trembled so much that he almost knelt down.
"The inheritance of the Primordial Heavenly Dao! It is a fragment of the Primordial Heavenly Dao Law, choosing its own master! It is reorganizing and returning to one!"
The elder holding the dragon bone cane spoke in a trembling voice.
"The Heavenly Ladder itself may be a seal, sealing away lost fragments of the Heavenly Dao! Only those who reach the summit are qualified to activate and inherit all of this!"
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.
Whether it was the academy elders or the many prodigies who had just been teleported down, everyone felt their scalp tingle and their minds were struck as if by a heavy hammer, leaving them utterly shocked.
The Primordial Supreme Heavenly Dao Inheritance of the Northern Seas and Heavens!
That is something that surpasses all immortal scriptures, secret manuals, and supernatural powers; it is the foundational rule that constitutes this world!
Obtaining it means possessing the supreme potential to glimpse the ultimate mysteries of heaven and earth, and even to wield a portion of the power of the North Sea universe!
Envy, jealousy, fanaticism, greed... all sorts of gazes, like sharp arrows.
The beams intertwined and shot towards Ye Tian, who was enveloped in a vast expanse of celestial light.
Especially those few dark prodigies, the killing intent in their eyes was almost frozen, and they could hardly contain themselves.
Such a heaven-defying destiny cannot be allowed to be monopolized by Ye Tian!
Moreover, Ye Tian is the young master of the eternal Ye family, who broke through the boundary from the Eternal Immortal Realm.
If it grows up in the future, it will surely overturn the entire Northern Sea!
"Make our move! Seize his destiny while his inheritance is still unstable and his foundation is not yet solid!"
A young man shrouded in thick black mist, his face bearing grotesque demonic markings, shouted sharply.
He is the holy son of the origin, "Netherworld," named Youyan.
The killing was swift and decisive; a token could be vaguely seen, which was the Pursuit Order of the Northern Sea of the Heavens!
He launched the first attack, his figure transforming into a twisted shadow, ignoring spatial barriers, and instantly closing in on the cocoon of light.
A sinister claw, wreathed in cursed runes, aimed straight for Ye Tian's head.
Their intention was to kill the enemy in one blow and plunder everything!
This claw strike was as swift as lightning, ruthless beyond compare, and contained dark laws powerful enough to erode even the souls of gods.
"presumptuous!"
"How dare you commit violence here!"
Several academy elders were furious, their auras surging, and they were about to intervene.
The rules are that everyone must rely on their own methods to climb the ladder to heaven.
But now Ye Tian is an unprecedented treasure of the academy, having just reached the top. How can we allow villains to plot against him!
However, their movements were a moment slower than a beam of light.
Just as the Nightmare's ghostly claws, imbued with terrifying corrosive power, were about to touch the cocoon of light.
"Buzz!"
A slight tremor, as if emanating from the deepest hell.
A tiny, almost imperceptible ray of light, gray and seemingly insignificant, silently flashed out from within the cocoon of light.
Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife!
"Do not!!!"
The ferocity and greed on Youyan's face froze instantly.
Instead, there was boundless fear.
If you want to retreat, disappear into the void and escape this place.
However, he found that the space-time around him had been completely imprisoned, and even the movement of his thoughts had become sluggish.
He could only watch helplessly as the radiant light, representing death, swirled around his neck.
There was no blood splattering.
There were no screams or wails.
The powerful body of the Dark Saint Child, along with his protective demonic armor and storage artifacts.
And that hideous, twisted soul, like a sand painting blown away by the wind, vanished silently.
It transforms into the finest particles and completely dissipates between heaven and earth.
A powerful and influential Dark Saint has perished, his body and soul annihilated, as if he had never existed.
The entire reception plaza fell into a deathly silence.
Those dark prodigies who were originally also restless and harboring ulterior motives were frozen solid as if by invisible ice.
His entire body felt cold; all greed and murderous intent were replaced by fear and subsided.
They dared not make the slightest move.
The power of the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife is terrifying!
This is a truly forbidden object, capable of slaying immortals and gods—this is no exaggeration!
The cocoon of light continued to devour the last of the immortal runes, and Ye Tian's figure floated within it.
Calm and still, as if only a speck of dust had been brushed away.
