Eternal Sacred King Chapter 3372: Three Books
Previously on Eternal Sacred King...
Boom!
The collision of the three Heavenly Dao Saint Weapons unleashed a cataclysmic surge of power that felt like the end of days. In an instant, the forces of Yin and Yang were shredded, and the strike of Divine Punishment was shattered.
Clutching the Human Book in his grip, Saint Thearch Reincarnation manifested once more.
“Hmm?”
The hearts of the two Genesis Essence Spirits, Yin Yang and Divine Punishment, skipped a beat in apprehension.
Their joint assault had been neutralized and parried by Saint Thearch Reincarnation!
Even with two Heavenly Dao Saint Weapons, they had failed to gain any ground against the Human Book!
“The volume in your hands is not the Human Book!”
Genesis Essence Spirit Yin Yang’s eyes flickered between black and white, his voice grim as he fixed a piercing stare on the Human Book.
Originally, the Human Book served as the Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon for Saint Reincarnation Life.
During the massive upheaval over six billion years ago, the Human Book had been damaged, causing its divine might to fade.
Now that it was held by Saint Thearch Reincarnation, the book was not only transformed in appearance but possessed a power that far surpassed its original state!
Saint Thearch Reincarnation gave a soft, knowing smile. “To be more accurate, this is the perfected Human Book!”
“The original version was far too limited, only documenting tens of thousands of humans. Now, however, the Human Book archives every detail regarding the living beings of the ten thousand races!”
“Every soul in the trichiliocosm—whether they be birds, beasts, or members of the Flora race—is now inscribed within the Human Book!”
Su Zimo was struck with terror.
The magnitude of such an artifact was staggering!
The essence of all life was contained within the Human Book.
Against it, no living being could hold secrets or offer resistance.
This implied that if Saint Thearch Reincarnation desired, he could utilize the Human Book to govern the life and death of every creature and dictate the destiny of all existence!
The Genesis Essence Spirits of Space Time, Ancestral Fire, and Nirvana remained silent. They traded meaningful looks and launched a simultaneous assault!
They realized that Yin Yang and Divine Punishment lacked the strength to overcome Saint Thearch Reincarnation on their own.
Furthermore, Su Zimo represented a significant threat. He could not be permitted to ascend to the rank of Saint Thearch.
Thus, Ancestral Fire and Nirvana aligned themselves with Yin Yang and Divine Punishment to storm Saint Thearch Reincarnation!
Meanwhile, Genesis Essence Spirit Space Time targeted Su Zimo, intent on ending his life!
A radiant furnace manifested around Saint Thearch Reincarnation. It glowed a fierce scarlet, exhaling searing heat that threatened to turn the world to ash!
It was the Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon: Incinerating Heaven Furnace!
Simultaneously, a spear lunged forward with a piercing whistle, carrying a freezing intent to kill!
It was the Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon: Saint Slaying Spear!
The four Genesis Essence Spirits struck in unison. Despite their previous injuries, they still commanded four Heavenly Dao Saint Weapons.
No matter how formidable the Human Book was, it surely could not withstand the combined might of four such weapons!
Saint Thearch Reincarnation remained composed, executing a gentle downward slash with a serene expression.
Rumble!
In the following heartbeat, the world fractured!
This was no mere metaphor; a literal segment of the major chiliocosm had collapsed!
“Wha—”
Su Zimo’s eyes stretched wide at the sight.
If the major chiliocosm were a fabric, Saint Thearch Reincarnation had just ripped away its northwestern corner with a simple motion!
That specific corner housed the 33 Heavens.
Saint Thearch Reincarnation had effectively torn the 33 Heavens from the fabric of the major chiliocosm and summoned them before him!
Boom!
The Saint Slaying Spear and the Incinerating Heaven Furnace crashed into the 33 Heavens with a thunderous roar!
Through the deafening noise, Su Zimo could hear the faint echoes of screaming.
The 33 Heavens were populated by countless souls.
As the realm absorbed the impact of the Saint Slaying Spear and the Incinerating Heaven Furnace, the resulting shockwave annihilated the inhabitants of the 33 Heavens instantly!
In truth, many perished without ever realizing their world was ending.
To the denizens of the 33 Heavens, this event was a sudden apocalypse.
They had no way of knowing that the destruction of their world was merely the byproduct of a single exchange between Saint Thearchs!
Su Zimo had once suspected that a Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon was hidden within the 33 Heavens.
He never imagined that the 33 Heavens was the Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon itself!
The five Genesis Essence Spirits were equally stunned by this revelation.
“Is this… your original Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon?”
The voice of Genesis Essence Spirit Ancestral Fire shook with shock and disbelief.
“Precisely,” Saint Thearch Reincarnation confirmed with a nod.
“After you all broke that weapon long ago, I discarded it within the major chiliocosm and merged it with the 33 Heavens to document the 3,000 Great Daos.”
“Once I refine it again and forge it into a new Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon, it shall be known as the Heaven Book!”
Su Zimo was floored by the explanation.
The sheer audacity required to turn a segment of the major chiliocosm into a weapon was mind-boggling!
Who could have guessed that the Heaven Book was not a literal book, but a piece of the universe itself?
The reason Saint Thearch Reincarnation had stationed the Lord of the Heavenly Being Dao in the major chiliocosm was likely to facilitate this very fusion for the Heaven Book’s transformation.
However, such a method was monstrously cruel to those living in the 33 Heavens.
They were nothing more than sacrificial pawns in the games of the powerful!
At that moment, the power of the Space Time Heavenly Dao surged toward Su Zimo.
The five Genesis Essence Spirits had fully committed to the battle!
Using the vision of the Green Lotus True Body, the Martial Dao Prime Body finally detected the faint traces of power from the ancient universe as the Genesis Essence Spirits attacked!
“So, that is the truth of it?”
Within the Saint Ruins, the Martial Dao Prime Body whispered to himself, lost in thought.
While he could estimate how the Chaos Universe would evolve, the process would take time to complete.
Yet, Genesis Essence Spirit Space Time was already closing in; the Green Lotus True Body was defenseless and facing certain death!
Suddenly!
A dark and ominous phantom materialized before Su Zimo. The Space Time Heavenly Dao force struck it and dissipated into nothingness!
Boom!
The Heaven and Earth Black Yellow Pagoda crashed down, attempting to crush the phantom.
The phantom flickered, revealing glimpses of terrifying, lifeless structures within it!
Even the Heaven and Earth Black Yellow Pagoda failed to destroy the apparition!
“Hmm?”
Su Zimo’s heart raced.
The phantom felt strangely familiar!
“This is…” Su Zimo muttered.
“Hehehe…”
A chilling, eerie laugh echoed in Su Zimo’s ears. “What is this? Have I faded from your memory so quickly?”
Feng Du!
Realization dawned on Su Zimo.
The phantom was the Netherworld itself!
The Netherworld had successfully blocked a blow from the Heaven and Earth Black Yellow Pagoda. Could it be…
Genesis Essence Spirit Space Time stared at the Netherworld with a dark expression and spoke slowly, “Yet another Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon!”
Saint Thearch Reincarnation smiled thinly. “Correct. The Heaven, Earth, and Human Books are all under my control. The Heaven Book and Human Book have been revealed. And this… is the Earth Book.”
The Earth Book?
Su Zimo was briefly stunned before the truth hit him.
The Heaven Book was not a book, but a refined portion of the major chiliocosm.
Naturally, the Earth Book was not a physical book either.
The Earth Book was the Netherworld!
While the Heaven Book recorded the 3,000 Great Daos and the Human Book cataloged the living, the Earth Book held the souls of the departed!
Without warning, Su Zimo felt a cold shiver run down his spine.
