Ch. 1761 - Slaying Five Dao Lords

The Asura Dao Lord’s purgatory was nothing more than a superficial imitation. What Xu Zimo unleashed was the true evolution of hell itself, a single blade breaking ten thousand edicts.

At this moment, overwhelming power surged endlessly.

This strike, Nine Hells Desolation, cleaved the Asura Purgatory in two. The remaining blade light swept across ninety billion miles, converging like a vast river.

“Save me-!” the Asura Dao Lord cried out, but before his words finished, the blade had already fallen.

Boom.

The annihilating force destroyed heaven and earth, leaving nothing behind.

“Damn it,” the Blazing Sun Dao Lord and the Soul Dao Lord both roared, turning angrily toward the child.

“Why didn’t you make a move?”

The child formed from the Middle Corpse sneered.

“Useless trash... Just a waste of air. But you did buy me some time.”

So it turned out that the child had been preparing something earlier, which was why he had not intervened.

“Corpse-Mist Ocean-Transformation, Heaven-Flooding Corpse Ocean!”

The child raised his hand. Terrifying power rumbled as endless corpse mist within the Middle Corpse Palace erupted violently.

In the end, it completely formed into a vast sea.

This sea engulfed everything, rolling toward Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo lifted his head slightly and snorted coldly.

Shadow Tyrant swept forward, the surrounding river of blade light surging with it.

The Blazing Sun Dao Lord and the Soul Dao Lord exchanged a glance and chose this moment to attack.

“Celestial Blazing-Sun, Ten-Million Mile Slash!”

“Soul-Cause, God-Soul Annihilation!”

Two earth-shaking attacks surged forth. The sea of corpse mist swallowed everything ahead, while the two attacked from the left and right.

“Not bad,” Xu Zimo laughed loudly.

“But today, none of you are leaving alive.”

Shadow Tyrant cut through thorns and brambles. Even the terrifying corpse sea was stirred into chaotic winds and clouds.

As the corpse sea trembled, Xu Zimo activated the Gate of Eternity, meeting both attacks head-on with invincible might.

The instant the corpse sea was torn apart, Xu Zimo stepped through the void, Shadow Tyrant in hand, and charged straight at the child.

From beginning to end, his true target had always been the Middle Corpse Mist.

The other two Infinite Dao cultivators were nothing more than cannon fodder, killed along the way.

Seeing Xu Zimo charge at him, the child sneered.

The braid behind his head lashed out, thickening instantly as it wrapped around Xu Zimo.

“Kill!” Xu Zimo roared.

Terrifying blade light erupted from his body, blasting the hair apart.

Taking advantage of the moment, the child retreated far away.

“Hold him off. I’ll curse him with corpse mist.”

The child sat cross-legged. A black circle appeared around him.

As corpse mist surged, a terrifying force shot into the sky, forming a black full moon above the heavens.

The black moon hung high. Light poured down from it, landing precisely on Xu Zimo.

No matter how Xu Zimo moved, the light followed him closely.

Xu Zimo looked up. He knew the source was still the child.

He raised his blade and prepared to strike.

The child shouted, “Stop him, or none of us can defeat him.”

“The curse power can break through any defense. Once my corpse curse is complete, he will die for sure.”

“Corpse curse?” Xu Zimo frowned slightly.

As an Infinite Dao cultivator, his perception was extraordinary. He could clearly feel a powerful force surging within his body.

Within that immense corpse mist, it felt as though a skull-shaped seal was slowly taking form.

He did not know what it was, but the ominous sense it carried grew stronger by the second.

“Kill!” The Soul Dao Lord and the Blazing Sun Dao Lord blocked his path.

Around the Soul Dao Lord, power struck directly at the God-Soul. His techniques were invisible, yet they injured the soul itself, making them impossible to guard against.

The Blazing Sun Dao Lord, meanwhile, shone like a blazing sun. His radiant light illuminated everything, covering all of Three Corpse City as if since time immemorial.

Both of them summoned their own God-Souls. One became a blazing sun, the other a soul beast.

They had no way out.

Although they had already sent for reinforcements from the Eighteen Blade Purgatory, Three Corpse City was still some distance away.

That time was more than enough for Xu Zimo to kill them.

So they fought with everything they had, holding nothing back.

Seeing the two block his path, Xu Zimo snorted coldly.

“How dare you ants try to stop me?”

His blade fell.

Slay Myriad Immortals!

With that slash, immortal courts collapsed, countless immortals fell, and everything vanished into nothingness.

The two were trapped by this vision. By the time they realized what was happening, Shadow Tyrant had already filled their sight.

Boom.

It was over.

Two heads fell at Xu Zimo’s feet. He stomped down, crushing them into pulp.

Their God-Souls were severed, and their bodies were kicked aside.

In the blink of an eye, after several exchanges, all five Infinite Dao cultivators of the Eighteen Blade Purgatory had been slain.

At this moment, Xu Zimo was invincible.

The blood on his body had begun to congeal. Dragging his curved blade, he walked forward step by step.

The Middle Corpse child suddenly opened his eyes and roared.

“Death-Seal Genesis, Life-Death Transformation!”

In an instant, he stirred the river of corpse mist with both hands. The corpse mist within Xu Zimo’s body surged violently.

The skull seal formed completely in an instant.

At that moment, with a series of popping sounds, things began to burn on Xu Zimo’s body.

Black vapors carried away his life force.

His internal organs twisted. His skin instantly turned black, withered, and began to peel like dead wood.

Seeing this, Xu Zimo frowned slightly.

Within the Tree of Life, vast life force surged forth to resist, clashing and eroding against the death energy.

“Even if you possess a treasure, so what? This Death Seal is endless. Your life force will eventually be exhausted,” the child said coldly.

“Submit to me, and I’ll help you undo the Death Seal. Otherwise, die.”

Xu Zimo stopped in place and said calmly, “Die? When have I ever feared death?”

At that moment, he completely withdrew his own life force, no longer resisting at all, allowing the death energy to erode and invade him.

Then he began to activate the edict of death, letting the death energy within him grow even stronger.

“The truth of death is rebirth through death,” Xu Zimo said flatly.

“If you have the ability, then kill me with this death energy.”

After comprehending the edict of death, Xu Zimo began guiding the death energy within his body little by little.

He maintained a delicate balance.

He allowed the death energy to corrode him, but not to the point of death.

Gradually, the child discovered in horror that his control over the Death Seal was weakening.

At times, he even lost control completely.

“What... what did you do?” the child stepped back several paces, asking warily.

“What did I do?” Xu Zimo rolled his neck and replied calmly.

“Rebirth through death requires nothing to be done. Your corpse mist is too weak. It can’t kill me.”

Xu Zimo was not exaggerating.

At the Infinite Dao realm, he was already invincible.

Unless the opponent had opened the Three Blossoms, there was no way for mere Dao Fruits to kill him.

Only absolute power could do it. All other tricks were meaningless.

Watching Xu Zimo advance step by step, the child was truly panicking now.
