Chapter 1248: I, Ye Guan, Invoke the Name of the Sword

Dual wielding!

Wherever Ye Guan passed, sword light would flow endlessly like a torrential flood, overwhelming everything in its path. The Great Dao of this universe was obliterated under his might.

At his current level of strength, ordinary Great Dao forces were as insignificant as ants.

Although separated by countless spacetime regions, Divine Attendant Pei and the others could still feel the terrifying pressure of Ye Guan's sword intent. It was so overwhelming that they felt suffocated.

Divine Attendant Yin suddenly said, "I'm done watching."

With that, he turned and disappeared into the depths of the starry sky. He had come to a realization that staying any longer would lead to his certain death.

The battle between Ye Guan and Divine Attendant Fan was already beyond their capacity to intervene. The only sensible move was to leave this chaotic battlefield as soon as possible.

Divine Attendant Pei and Divine Attendant Yu exchanged glances, then both turned and left as well. Any of the powerful figures around Ye Guan could easily erase them with a mere thought, let alone Ye Guan himself.

This battle was beyond their level—survival was their priority.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan charged forward with both swords, closing in on the Evil Dao.

The Evil Dao raised her hands slightly, and countless tribulation lightning bolts manifested from her palms, transforming the surrounding spacetime region into a domain full of lightning bolts.

Boom, boom, boom!

Explosions echoed all around them as lightning and sword light clashed and scattered in all directions. It was a fierce battle; their auras and strength were growing stronger with each exchange. Sword light and lightning intertwined in midair, only to shatter and disintegrate moments later.

The Boundless Master turned his gaze toward another unique, spacetime region. The battle between Clan Leader Jing and Fan Zhaodi was raging on there.

"Between the two of them, who's stronger?" asked the Boundless Master.

The Great Daoist Brush Master said, "Neither is stronger than the other."

Hearing this, the Boundless Master then looked at Cizhen and the Ancestral Dao in the distance. Clearly, those two would decide the outcome of this battle.

"Which of them is stronger?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master looked at the Boundless Master but said nothing.

The Boundless Master frowned in confusion. "What is it?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master patted his shoulder. "Stop wasting time getting your feet washed. Cultivate more. You're so weak that I can hardly bear to look at you."

The Boundless Master's face darkened upon hearing that.

Boom!

A deafening explosion erupted in the distance. They turned to find that Ye Guan's battlefield had suddenly become a void of nothingness.

The Boundless Master asked, "What's going on?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master said, "When you get back, shut down your feet-washing parlor. Otherwise, if word gets out that I once had high hopes for you, I would find it too embarrassing."

The Boundless Master was utterly speechless.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan was slashing wildly at the Evil Dao with his Order Sword and the Qingxuan Sword. He seemed to be falling more and more into madness.

The Evil Dao's aura was still surging exponentially, and the rate of her growth was several times faster than Ye Guan's. Although she was being suppressed, Ye Guan couldn't find a killing blow at all.

The Great Daoist Brush Master stared at her and murmured, "So that's how it is..."

The Boundless Master turned to him, tempted to ask another question, but thought better of it. He knew any question now would likely earn him more words of scorn, so he decided to keep silent.

Noticing that, the Great Daoist Brush Master glanced at the Boundless Master and asked, "Why aren't you asking me anything? Go ahead and ask; I'll answer your questions."

The Boundless Master said, "What did you mean by what you said earlier?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master indifferently said, "Take a guess."

"Fuck!" The Boundless Master exploded in anger.

In the spacetime region full of nothingness, Ye Guan's sword force and bloodline aura were gradually being suppressed. The Evil Dao's aura was growing increasingly powerful, and it was growing at a terrifying rate.

Ye Guan was struggling more and more as the fight went on.

Suddenly, a burst of blood-red light erupted from the void, instantly transforming the spacetime region into a boundless sea of blood.

Ye Guan had finally succumbed to madness!

Ye Guan began to turn the tides to his favor; he was suppressing the Evil Dao once again.

With two swords in both hands, Ye Guan slashed out wildly, filling the void with streams of sword lights. The Evil Dao was forced to retreat again and again; she was being completely overwhelmed.

However, the suppression didn't last that long. The blood-red lightning around the Evil Dao turned purple, and the glow in her eyes took on a purple hue as well.

The Great Daoist Brush Master frowned deeply at the sight.

Boom!

A massive lightning pillar erupted from within the void, and its overwhelming energy forced Ye Guan thousands of meters away.

The moment he came to a halt, terrifying bolts of lightning appeared around him. Ye Guan swung his swords fiercely, slashing apart the lightning bolts around him.

The Evil Dao took a deep breath and clenched her fists. The blood-red lightning in the area took on a purple hue.

A faint purple lightning bolt coalesced in her left hand, and a terrifying wave of lightning energy swept across the battlefield. Ye Guan was struck and blasted a thousand meters away.

To make matters worse, even his Mad Demon Bloodline and sword intent were suppressed.

The Evil Dao looked at him with a mocking smile playing on her lips. At this moment, her aura was more than ten times stronger compared to just a few moments ago, and it was still growing at an alarming rate.

The Boundless Master's face was full of confusion. "How is her aura becoming more and more terrifying?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master explained, "She had already fused the memories of ten thousand lifetimes, but the accumulated cultivation base from those lifetimes is boundless, so she had yet to inherit that power.

"However, her battle with Ye Guan has accelerated that process. This is why her strength and aura are growing faster than Ye Guan's. She's actively inheriting ten thousand lifetimes worth of power..."

The Boundless Master asked, "How much of it has she inherited by now?"

"About thirty percent."

"Thirty percent?! That's..."

"Now you see how weak you truly are?"

"Fuck!"

The Evil Dao raised her right hand and pressed it down.

In an instant, a massive lightning pillar rushed forward.

Boom!

Ye Guan was sent flying backwards again. In midair, Ye Guan's sword force actually began dissipating!

The Evil Dao's power was overwhelming, and his sword force could no longer withstand it.

Cizhen, who was standing in another spacetime region, lowered her head and clenched her right hand tightly.

The Great Daoist Brush Master glanced at Ye Guan and shook his head. "Still not enough."

Even though Cizhen's faith in Ye Guan's order had provided him immense support, it was still insufficient. Moreover, Ye Guan's foundation was still too shallow. After all, the Evil Dao possessed the cultivation of ten thousand lifetimes!

In each of her past lives, she was a top-tier expert. Having fused with all those lifetimes, the extent of her cultivation base was unimaginably terrifying.

What made her even more fearsome was that she had the support of the Ancestral Dao—that was the most important factor.

Ye Guan tightly gripped the swords in his hand. The oppressive aura of the Evil Dao was making it nearly impossible for him to breathe.

The Evil Dao glanced at Cizhen before shifting her focus to Ye Guan. Her expression was cold and emotionless as she said, "Aren't you two determined to protect this universe?

"Then, watch as I destroy the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe right before your eyes. Be sure not to blink so you won't miss a thing."

Boom!

In an instant, billions of tribulation lightning bolts manifested, and tribulation clouds appeared above the heads of every living being in the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe.

Within the clouds, faint purple tribulation lightning bolts flickered.

The Universe Tribulation—the Tribulation of All Beings!

Upon its descent, all beings would perish!

Countless experts across the True Universe and Guanxuan Universe raised their heads to look at the tribulation clouds looming over them, and their eyes were filled with terror. They couldn't fathom even the thought of resisting.

With the Evil Dao's current strength, it wasn't just the True Universe and Guanxuan Universe that were vulnerable. Even a Tier Nine Civilization would not be able to withstand her power.

She had become extremely powerful due to the countless years of suppression.

The tribulation she would bring forth was simply too powerful for the myriad beings to withstand.

***

Ancient Desolate City...

Nalan Jia looked up at the tribulation cloud hovering above her head. Her right hand gently caressed her abdomen as her eyes began to fill with worry.

Ye Guan had to be fighting Evil Dao right now.

This battle...

Nalan Jia's worry deepened.

***

True Universe...

Cirou and Cishu stood at the entrance of the True God Hall. Above their heads hung a tribulation cloud that radiated the terrifying might of the Universe Tribulation.

The two women looked in the direction of the Tribulation World, and their eyes were brimming with anxiety.

***

Tribulation World...

A faint golden light suddenly appeared in Ye Guan's eyes, and his mind regained a trace of clarity. Little Pagoda had lent him a hand!

At the same time, Ye Guan instantly became aware of the Universe Tribulation enveloping the True Universe and Guanxuan Universe. He raised his head to look at the Evil Dao. The oppressive aura emanating from her was overwhelming, and he found it almost impossible to resist.

Ye Guan took a deep breath. Gazing at the Qingxuan Sword and the Order Sword in his hands, he brought the two swords together, merging them into one. He held the fused sword upright between his brows and declared, "Today, the Evil Dao seeks to slaughter the countless beings of the Guanxuan Universe. I, Ye Guan, invoke the name of the sword and call out to the myriad beings.

"Hear my plea—lend me your strength! I'll slay Evil the Dao and establish my Order!"

Ye Guan's voice echoed throughout the Guanxuan Universe and the True Universe.

The myriad beings his voice, and the despair in their hearts was replaced by a glimmer of hope.

Ye Guan, the ruler of the Guanxuan Universe, was calling out to them!

There was still hope—someone was still fighting for them!

Countless people knelt down, offering their faith and belief as strength.

Just then, an immense surge of faith converged on Ye Guan from every direction. The power of faith was both powerful and seemingly infinite as it flowed into Ye Guan.

Boom!

Ye Guan's sword intent and aura skyrocketed. The oppressive might of the Evil Dao was forcibly pushed back.

Ye Guan's fate became intertwined with the fate of all beings.

The Will of All Beings! His Order was finally perfect!
