Da Xuan Martial Saint Chapter 1521 - 730: The Universe’s Fifth Supreme Venerable (Part 2)

Previously on Da Xuan Martial Saint...
The black volcano at the abyss's center erupted with a thunderous roar, unleashing a torrent of Primordial Power that shattered the Void, Creation, and Time, freezing all Dao Venerables in their battles. From its depths emerged a dazzling Primordial Marvel, fusing the three Great Dao powers and holding the supreme mystery to transcendence, driving every Dao Venerable into a frenzied pursuit across the void. Streams of light raced after the soaring brilliance, but the overwhelming force repelled them one by one, unable to be seized. Amid the chaos, Chen Mu alone stood unmoving, observing calmly without joining the chase, as the spent Marvel traced an arc and descended directly toward him, its power dispersing upon landing at his feet.

Buzz!!!

As Chen Mu gazed upon the Primordial Marvel for those brief instants, the nearest Dao Venerable had already rushed over. This was a Venerable who mastered both Void Dao and Creation Dao, originating from an earlier Universal Reincarnation. Gripping a dark Demon Blade—a Creation Divine Weapon—he unleashed a savage slash toward Chen Mu!

The attack aimed not to slay Chen Mu, but rather to force him away and stop him from claiming the Primordial Marvel!

"Step aside!"

"This is not something you can possess!"

The Black Blade Venerable bellowed in a rough tone.

He understood that Chen Mu, as a fresh Venerable from the ongoing Reincarnation Era, possessed the weakest base. To him, Chen Mu and his allies like Wutian Venerable lacked any claim to the Primordial Marvel, no matter their numbers.

Chen Mu's delay in grabbing the Primordial Marvel proved wise; had he taken it rashly, keeping it would have been impossible. Excessive ambition could leave him empty-handed in the end!

However,

As the Black Blade Venerable's assault came forth, Chen Mu's eyes stayed serene like still water.

He merely observed the Black Blade Venerable's advance, making no extra motions, just lifting his right arm and sweeping his sleeve ahead. In a flash, an immense and boundless Dao force erupted, resembling a radiant blaze slicing across the cosmos.

Inside this blaze, the essences of Void Dao, Creation Dao, and Time Dao emerged, showing hints of linkage and unity. They merged at one spot, crafting a dreadful energy that pierced the endless cosmos, smashing head-on against the dark Demon Blade in the Black Blade Venerable's grasp.

Crack!!!

With that single clash, the dark Demon Blade from the Black Blade Venerable broke apart right away!

The Black Blade Venerable froze in the Void at once, then got hurled back by the impact, shooting like a streak across the heavens. He soared billions of miles, slamming into the rim of the Source Sea Abyss, which cracked its barrier and burst open, sending ripples spanning billions of miles.

In an instant,

The whole area went into shock!

More than a hundred Venerables charging into this spot, such as Wutian Venerable, Beast Divine Venerable, and their companions, all came to a sudden stop. Innumerable eyes turned to Chen Mu, filled with utter astonishment.

Wutian, Beast Divine, Venerable Sun, and various other Dao Venerables traveling with Chen Mu also froze in place, staring at him in stunned confusion.

"This..."

Disbelief flashed in the Beast Divine Venerable’s gaze.

Who exactly was the Black Blade Venerable?

He had risen to Dao Venerable in a prior Universal Reincarnation, fully grasping both Creation Dao and Void Dao. As an ancient powerhouse, he commanded a Great Dao Treasure, the Black Demon Blade, displaying immense prowess.

Yet despite the Black Blade Venerable's formidable power, Chen Mu repelled him easily with a mere sleeve sweep, sending him hurtling billions of miles and even expelling him from the Abyss depths inside the Source Sea!

How could this be?!

Furthermore, the force Chen Mu displayed in that sleeve motion included not just Void Dao, but Creation Dao and Time Dao as well... It formed a combined might from these three Origin Dao forces!

No, that alone wouldn't suffice. Simply blending three Origin Daos, absent a Great Dao Treasure or Primordial Treasure, couldn't shatter the Black Blade Venerable in one blow or forge such a vast gap.

The overwhelming strength from Chen Mu surpassed owning just three Origin Dao forces. He had managed an initial blend of these three Origin Daos to some degree, granting him this deep and horrifying power!

For a moment,

Wutian Venerable, Venerable Sun, and the rest stood dumbfounded, one questioning idea echoing in their thoughts.

How had Chen Mu accomplished this?

Hadn't he just become a Dao Venerable during the Universe’s End of Tribulation?

Silence enveloped the scene.

The Dao Venerables nearest to Chen Mu, including those poised to attack, all held back. Many among them were weaker than the Black Blade Venerable. Seeing Chen Mu unleash such profound divine might so effortlessly, they knew he had surpassed their realm, stepping into a level beyond challenge!

By touching upon the Dao fusion's power early on, this level of strength hit the Dao Venerables' peak, clearly matching the elite like Primordial Palace Master, Primordial Lord, Cang Mang Venerable, and other top Venerables.

Even if they united to shove Chen Mu aside, it held no purpose.

With such prowess, Chen Mu could leisurely take the Primordial Marvel and leave. Should anyone provoke him excessively, reprisal could follow later.

Figures like the Primordial Palace Master and Primordial Lord, among the ancient top-tier Venerables, inspired deep dread. Though Dao Venerables were immortal and even the Primordial Palace Master couldn't slay the lowliest one, such beings could deploy ultimate force to seal a Dao Venerable forever!

The Primordial Palace Master had once piloted the Eternal Ship, confining multiple Dao Venerables and holding them down across several Universal Reincarnations until the Dao fully consumed them, turning them into its essence!

The once turbulent Source Sea Abyss now returned to peace.
