Chapter 2324 - The Threelives Dao Body

The young woman realized this, too. Her brow furrowed, and her gaze was suddenly cold and stern.

Boom!

It was as if she’d broken through some sort of seal hidden in her thin frame. Her aura instantly expanded, and the dark flames surrounding her suddenly shone with hints of blood-red light!

Her combat strength underwent a shocking transformation, too.

This shift startled the old monsters. All of them gasped.

Unreasonable! Just too unreasonable!

They’d assumed that that was the limit of the young woman’s power. They’d never have guessed that they were completely off the mark.

The tall young man inwardly sighed in relief. His junior apprentice sister’s physique was special, as her foundations in the Grand Dao were divided into three. She had three separate Seas of Chaos!

According to their master, her physique embodied the mysteries of “the Dao giving rise to one, one giving rise to two, and three giving rise to all things.” It was incomparably taboo and terrifying.

You could search the entire Age of Supreme Emergence without finding another whose foundations in the Grand Dao compared to hers!

Master had even described her Threelives Dao Body as “unique and unparalleled in any age!”

“Threelives” didn’t refer to the lives of her past, present, and future.

Rather, it referred to manifesting three facets of life: the mysteries of heaven and earth, the endless variety of the masses, and her own Dao!

In other words, in her physique, she saw heaven and earth, the masses, and herself!

This was the Threelives Dao Body!”

An incomparable talent that could astonish even top powerhouses of the River of Destiny.

This physique manifested in her cultivation base as three distinct and wondrous foundations in the Grand Dao, three Seas of Chaos of cyclical resonance!

This did more than just triple her foundations in the Grand Dao. It was a unique and terrifying cycle in which “Three Lives Manifested All Things.”

So long as she continuously cultivated and accumulated power, her foundations in the Grand Dao would keep growing and transforming.

This was what made her talent so taboo.

When the Age of Supreme Emergence ended, the young woman was following her master, Celestial Venerate Zhou Ye. He taught her everything he knew, holding nothing back.

During their countless years trapped in the ruins, her master continued her education, never, ever lowering his expectations for her cultivation.

He was even worried that she’d break through too quickly, so he went so far as to repeatedly seal and suppress her cultivation base!

The stalwart young man had long since lost track of how many times their master had sealed his apprentice sister’s cultivation base. He just knew that every time her growing cultivation base could no longer be suppressed, she’d break one of their master’s seals!

Their master would then seal her again, and she’d break through it again. It was like an endless competition of sealing and seal-breaking between master and apprentice.

And it was this cycle that had given the young woman the heaven-defying strength she had today!

According to their master, his junior apprentice sister was worthy of one day bringing order to the world. Her path was unique and taboo. It was only by repeatedly suppressing her strength, then breaking through her fetters that she could fully excavate the latent potential of her Threelives Dao Body.

The stalwart young man didn’t doubt this at all. The way he saw it, his junior apprentice sister’s accomplishments were sure to surpass their master’s. Her prospects were immeasurable!

Take now, for instance. Her strength had soared mid-battle because prior to this, she’d only drawn on one of her three Seas of Chaos.

The other two had always been sealed off.

Now, she was drawing on the power of two at once!

If Su Yi dares to underestimate her any further, he’ll really be in for it!

thought the stalwart young man.

......

The young woman’s combat strength transformed. As she waved her flaming scythe, streaks of dazzling, blood-red light appeared amidst the endlessly dark divine flames, crushing the sky with enough force to shake heaven and earth.

She was far stronger than before.

Su Yi sensed it all, but he just smiled as his strength transformed, too.

Bang!

He waved his fist, overturning creation and throwing the five elements into disarray. Tyrannical sword intent swept outward, neutralizing the young woman’s attacks as if cleaving through rotten wood.

He was just as proud and contemptuous as before.

No, he was even more forceful, and even more tyrannical!

Master Cloud Refiner and the others’ minds practically went blank.

In the time that followed, no matter how forceful or tyrannical the young woman’s attacks were, or what kind of terrifying, taboo killer move she unleashed, Su Yi neutralized them all, one by one!

The young woman struck like wind and lightning, her endless dark flames melting everything.

She could have easily burnt even modern-day Master Gods to ash.

As fearsome as could be.

Su Yi, however, was like an unshakeable boulder, a motionless divine mountain. No matter how the winds assailed him, he stood tall. No matter how the waves tried to rock him, he remained steady!

But every time

he

attacked, his opponent had to block with all her might.

“This...” The stalwart young man looked dazed. In his heart, his junior apprentice sister was a unique, heaven-defying monster. No one else could compare.

Who would have imagined that Su Yi was more than just a match for her? In some ways, he was even stronger!

Kaboom!

Sword qi flew throughout heaven and earth, and dark flames tinged with blood-colored light whooshed through the air.

The skies of the entire Ruins of Supreme Emergence churned violently, startling countless old monsters trapped in its various forbidden zones.

“What’s happening?”

“What taboo power! The combatants obviously have yet to condense Undying Laws, but their destructive power is still far beyond ordinary Master Gods!”

“Don’t tell me that this is a clash between two heaven-defying figures beneath the Master God level!?”

...Discussions arose throughout the ruins. However, no matter how the trapped old monsters’ cultivations were, or how ample their experience, they were baffled. None could reach any definitive answers. On the contrary, it all seemed strange and out of the ordinary.

Even Master Cloud Refiner and the others watching the battle with their own eyes found it astonishing and unbelievable, much less those not here to witness it.

“That... still isn’t the power of reincarnation.” As the battle raged, a look of bewilderment appeared on the young woman’s face. She couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Su, just how much strength were you holding back earlier?”

Su Yi drew his fingertip through the air, crushing another terrifying attack before responding. “I wouldn’t say I’m holding back. I just haven’t switched to my stronger powers of the Grand Dao, that’s all.”

He wasn’t lying, either.

The young woman pursed her lips. How could she possibly fail to realize the implications?

Kaboom!!

Yet another terrifying clash took place, but Su Yi barely staggered on his feet.

When the young woman saw this, she seemed to make up her mind. Her bright eyes blazed as if on fire, surging with imposing light.

“Activate!” She raised her flaming scythe into the air.

Then, as the onlookers watched in astonishment, her cultivation base rapidly rose in strength once more!

The dark flames enshrouding her were now incomparably explosive. They weren’t just tinged with blood-colored light; they even glinted with dazzling golden fire!

Kaboom!

The entire stretch of heaven and earth seemed to melt completely, transforming into a turbulent sea of divine flames.

The young woman now seemed like an unparalleled venerate swathed in intertwining divine flames of intermingling gold and crimson. She was so strong that it seemed downright unbelievable.

“Junior Apprentice Sister... has drawn upon the full power of her Threelives Dao Body!” exclaimed the young man. He could tell that she was using the power of all three of her Seas of Chaos!

But he couldn’t manage to be happy about this, as even now, she’d yet to force Su Yi to use his power of reincarnation.

On the contrary, Su Yi was the one forcing her to reveal more and more of her power.

Now, she was truly holding nothing back!

The stalwart young man naturally realized what that meant, so how could he possibly celebrate?

Indeed, just as he’d thought, as his junior apprentice sister unleashed the full extent of her power, Su Yi’s strength increased, too!

All of the onlookers were stunned.

Master Cloud Refiner, Hua Yin, and the other old monsters fell silent. They looked utterly astonished and bewildered.

The young woman’s strength rose repeatedly, overturning their predictions and perceptions of reality. Every time, it came as a massive shock to their Dao Hearts.

The way they saw it, she was an unquestionably unparalleled genius, a unique, irreplicable monster!

It was true that peak Nine-Tribulation Master Gods like them could have suppressed her with little difficulty, but don’t forget: she was still only in the Limit Realm!

How terrifying would she be after stepping into the Undying Realm?

And if she became a peak Nine-Tribulation Master Goddess... How could the likes of them possibly compare to her?

That was why they had such complicated looks on their faces.

If that were the extent of it, it’d be one thing. After all, they knew that she was both Celestial Venerate Zhou Ye’s disciple and his chosen Bringer of Order.

Sure, she was heaven-defying. You could have searched the ages without finding more than a few like her.

But she was still an exception, an anomaly.

The crux of the matter was that as heaven-defying as she was, Su Yi was even more heaven-defying!

Su Yi was repeatedly forcing her to draw on more and more of her true strength, while he still seemed as unfathomable as a bottomless pit.

Even now, he’d never once drawn on the power of reincarnation.

Even now, no one could tell just how much strength he was holding in reserve.

How could the old monsters

not

be astonished? How could they

not

feel bewildered?

Bang!!!

Sword intent swept through the dome of heaven in a boundless flood, crushing the flames brimming with taboo power.

Su Yi’s blue robes swayed around him, and when he attacked, every movement was accompanied by boundless sword qi. It was utterly oppressive.

The sight was enough to make one give in to despair.

He was like an unshakeable divine mountain, blocking every attack and suppressing everything his opponent threw at him. Despair was inevitable!

Even though the young woman was a Bringer of Order, her staunch Dao Heart was under attack.

But that was the full extent of it.

She pursed her lips, and deep within her cold, indifferent gaze, her will to fight burned with ever greater intensity.

Her essence, qi, and spirit seemed to roar and boil. It was as if she stood in a dark, blazing purgatory, melting the dome of heaven above and burning the nine abysses below.

The flaming scythe in her pale, slender hands silently transformed. It now looked forged out of pure, resplendent gold!

The dome of heaven, meanwhile, was shrouded in dense darkness.

“What?!” The stalwart young man was startled as he realized what his junior apprentice sister was about to do. He was instantly more nervous than ever before.

Practically simultaneously, Su Yi’s gaze focused, then flashed with a strange light.

The young woman was almost certainly about to unleash the power of her Grand Dao Divine Ability!

She’d yet to even use it, but it had already manifested such unbelievable and strange phenomena. Su Yi couldn’t help but feel eager.
