Chapter 323: The Great Jing Immortal Dynasty (Part 11)

Lan Batian's aura was unreserved, attracting the attention of the other prodigies on the Path to Heaven.
"It's Lan Batian of the Blue Light Immortal Clan... It's not the time for the final battle yet, so who would dare to provoke Lan Batian?"
A terrifying figure appeared, his entire body covered in black-gold metal, radiating an aura of annihilation. His gaze was fixed on a distant, unreachable direction, where a terrifying aura was rising. As the ninth-ranked prodigy in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain, he did not underestimate Lan Batian, who was ranked tenth.
He knew that the Blue Light Immortal Clan was far more complex than it appeared; even Lan Batian's final form had been quite troublesome for him...
Yet, before the final battle even began, someone had already provoked that troublesome blue fat man.
"A good show is starting, truly interesting. It seems there's a new development on the Path to Heaven this time."
In another space, bathed in golden light, a golden figure clapped his hands. This golden figure had no specific form, or rather, form was meaningless to beings of his level.
Third on the Heavenly Gang Immortal Realm rankings, the Golden Celestial Clan, Sal Chengdao
Just as his applause subsided, the surrounding rules and order distorted, like constantly flowing lines.
In an instant, Sal Chengdao's golden light was ripped apart by black and white particles.
"Was it the Blue Fatty's battle that piqued your interest, leading you to choose to start the final battle ahead of schedule?"
Before Sal Chengdao appeared a humanoid silhouette, its face pitch black, save for a bright circular point of light, like an eye gazing into the unknown.
Around the humanoid silhouette, silver-white hair cascaded down, and everything around changed...
First on the Heavenly Gang Immortal Realm rankings, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Lord!
A final battle, due to Su Chen's unexpected intervention, arrived prematurely.
Facing Lan Batian in his final evolved form, Su Chen had to admit that this kind of immortal being was absolutely overwhelming to ordinary humans. Even with billions of years of accumulation in the Void Sea, only two or three beings could rival this Blue Light Immortal in talent and combat power.
And this Blue Light Immortal was merely the first in the Blue Light Immortal Clan's million-year history... How many millions of years could an immortal clan have?
In the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain rankings, he was only ranked tenth!
Su Chen destroyed one of Lan Batian's arms, and the thousands of chains of wisdom behind his head pierced through Lan Batian. As Lan Batian howled in pain, he began to analyze the cultivation path of the Blue Light Immortal Clan behind him.
However, as he began to transform Lan Batian, Lan Batian's body instantly vanished into nothingness.
Completely analyzing the cultivation path of an immortal was no easy task.
Su Chen felt a pang of regret. Such a being might have contributed more to the Great Wisdom Cult than countless human geniuses, but alas… with a True Immortal behind him, he couldn't go too far. Being noticed by a True Immortal beforehand was not a good thing.
“What is that?”
Su Chen suddenly looked up.
He sensed an aura of utter darkness, unlike anything he had ever experienced before. Even across all his lifetimes, he had never witnessed such a dark and gloomy aura.
Sweeping across countless universes, the aura of that terrifying being drew ever closer to an Emperor-level being... and all this in less than a million years!
Boom!
As the heavens fell silent, Su Chen sensed the auras of powerful beings vanishing, all killed and devoured by that terrifying being, becoming nourishment for his body.
"That aura... is approaching me!"
Su Chen sensed an aura of utter darkness approaching him, an aura that tainted even his Great Wisdom Halo with darkness, dimming its light.
The moment this thought arose in Su Chen's mind,
a faceless being appeared before him, nothing but endless darkness.
That darkness was unlike any other darkness, possessing an evil, all-consuming will... that mad will was called the Great Freedom Path.
In a mere instant, Su Chen's figure was sent flying backward, along with billions of spaces turning to ashes.
The Great Jing Dynasty
Su Chen, who was comprehending the thoughts of the believers of the heavens, suddenly opened his eyes.
His thought, which had remained within Nan Hongsang's body, was severely damaged!
As his thought arose, a consciousness returned to his mind.
"The Great Free Heaven..."
Su Chen's mind was filled with everything that had happened on the Path to Heaven. His thought, which he had left within Nan Hongsang's body, had been instantly destroyed!
However, Su Chen wasn't angry. His eyes gleamed, a hint of excitement flickering within them.
He sensed the aura of a fellow cultivator.
The halo behind his head multiplied into countless forms, and in that instant, a new change occurred on the Path to Heaven.
The Great Free Heaven Demon, which had originally intended to leave, extended extremely dark tentacles, preparing to devour the severely damaged and dimmed thought of Su Chen and merge it with him.
Just as the darkness was about to touch Su Chen, his body suddenly changed, vanishing before the Great Free Heaven Demon, leaving only a swirling halo.
This scene left the Great Free Heaven Demon tilting its head, utterly bewildered.
The next moment, a burst of intense light erupted from the swirling halo, instantly disintegrating the extremely dark tentacle into nothingness.
Before the Great Freedom Demon, the golden halo also transformed, becoming a golden figure, faceless, possessing only supreme divinity, with golden veins emanating from its body, resembling the supreme 'Heaven'
Great Wisdom Heaven
The collision of the two auras directly annihilated countless spaces.
Outside the Path to Heaven
Several indescribable figures surrounded a giant glass sphere.
The scene within that glass sphere was an endless universe, accompanied by a winding path gradually leading to its end.
And what those indescribable figures observed from within the glass sphere was none other than Su Chen and the Great Freedom Demon, currently engaged in combat.
"What is his origin...? Why can't I deduce it? Could it be that some old monster, bored, sealed his memories and reincarnated through countless heavens for his own amusement?"
"That Great Dao has never been seen in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Realm, yet he's on par with that little fellow who comprehended the Great Freedom Heaven."
"In a million years, two beings have actually reached the level of 'Transforming the Body into Heaven.' Normally, one being reaching this level in an era is already a miracle; two in one era is unprecedented."
"This is a good thing. The Great Dark Calamity is approaching; having another comrade means having another ally."
"The 108th era is approaching... the Dark Lands will strike again, and even we, the immortals, will face annihilation."
