Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao Chapter 1728 - 215: Evil Venerate Sword, Annihilation Domain

The Soul Emperor seemed to have an epiphany; even as blood flowed from his body, an extremely terrifying radiance enveloped him from the heavens and earth.

Due to this epiphany, the Soul Emperor had comprehended something immensely important ahead of time.

The next moment, the flesh of the gigantic ancient corpse began to wither at a visible speed.

Endless terrifying power rushed towards the Soul Emperor like flowing water.

This scene made Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor’s hearts sink instantly to the bottom.

The three of them attacked with full force, yet the Soul Emperor, though unprepared, merely got wounded without suffering any truly destructive damage.

The Soul Emperor had entered this place first and, therefore, was more powerful. Now that he received the favor of the Heavenly Dao here and mastered more of the Dao, the Soul Emperor at this point possessed the power to instantly kill Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor while genuinely refining Lee Ran and the ancient corpse.

The gigantic ancient corpse, even in death, surely possessed immense power.

At this moment, both the Pan Emperor and Zhou Yan looked extremely pale.

This time, they were directly at a dead end.

And finding a way to interrupt the Soul Emperor’s absorption was critical.

The Pan Emperor was the first to charge forward, the Evil Venerate Sword tracing a path of the Supreme Dao of Heaven and Earth, with even more terrifying killing intent, enhancing his previous attack by about thirty percent!

However, instead of being happy, the Pan Emperor felt even more burdened because not long after he emerged, he hadn’t even absorbed much energy, yet his attack power had increased by such a large margin, whereas the Soul Emperor had been here so long, even now still absorbing the power of the ancient corpse, then this attack...

The Soul Emperor looked at the Pan Emperor as if he were an ant, casually extending a finger, an overwhelming power piercing through the Pan Emperor’s robust body like a chain.

A bloody hole immediately appeared, and in an instant, the Pan Emperor was severely injured.

Zhou Yan also flew over at this moment, the Evil Venerate Sword unleashing the power of heaven and earth, crushing this part of the void.

Zhou Yan’s combat power increased by fifty percent at this moment.

Unfortunately, the Soul Emperor didn’t even look, forcibly absorbing the power of the ancient corpse, while grabbing the trajectory of the Evil Venerate Sword Dao Zhou Yan unleashed, crushing it ruthlessly, the slaying intent the Evil Venerate Sword had condensed directly shattering to pieces.

"Pfft—"

Zhou Yan spat blood and flew backward, the situation extremely dire.

Lee Ran did not move, standing there all the while.

"Pan Emperor, it’s up to you!"

With Zhou Yan more severely wounded than the Pan Emperor, he didn’t hesitate to make way for the Pan Emperor, knowing full well that this was not as fast an advancement method as the Soul Emperor’s method of devouring the ancient corpse, but he had no choice at this point.

Zhou Yan had also considered using the Emperor Qi Dragon Swallowing Sky Divine Skill to devour the ancient corpse, but first, the ancient corpse was Lee Ran, and secondly, his Dao couldn’t perform it, unable to devour the ancient corpse.

Instead, the Pan Emperor stopped Zhou Yan at this time, as if having some understanding, looked at Lee Ran, and said, "Lee Ran, you have a method, don’t you. Go ahead and say it."

Lee Ran was silent, his gaze inexplicably directed towards Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor.

At that time, the Soul Emperor didn’t attack either, merely from Lee Ran’s glance, the Soul Emperor trembled all over, retreating a few steps.

Evidently, the kind of fear for a Tao Establishment still deeply affected him.

But as long as the Soul Emperor continued to devour the ancient corpse, he would gradually escape from that unknown shadow of fear.

Lee Ran suddenly said, "Pan Emperor, you... should have some realization, right."

The Pan Emperor nodded, "I always suspected different Dao, different origins, should stem from differing essences. But it’s clear... Zhou Yan, if there’s a future, the Immortal Buddha Divine Race relies on you."

Zhou Yan’s heart trembled, his whole body feeling struck by lightning.

At that moment, even with his disposition, tears unexpectedly flowed down his face.

With the Pan Emperor saying so, Zhou Yan already knew what the outcome would be.

Lee Ran sighed, "Actually, even before it appeared, I already knew the result, but I thought of changing it, as long as I could kill the Soul Emperor, it wouldn’t reach this point, but... clearly, it can’t anymore. The Soul Emperor now has reached the mid-level stage of the Evil Venerate Realm, and you have just entered the early transformation stage.

The gap is enough to form an instant kill."

"And the Pan Emperor’s sensing wasn’t wrong—Zhou Yan, your existence, is quite similar to mine, not part of the life created by my Tao establishment, hence I can’t influence your Dao, similarly, this is why you can change timelines, appearing in multiple parallel spaces, experiencing multiple different life changes.

Because you are comparable to a timeline, but you have lost something important.

And the Pan Emperor truly belongs to the life among my Tao establishment."

"Therefore, as long as I devour the Pan Emperor and all the Immortal Buddha Divine Race, I can resurrect from the ancient corpse. That’s the best scenario, but also the worst."

"By then, I can directly take action to kill the Soul Emperor, truly resurrecting from the ancient corpse."

"However, should this happen..."

Lee Ran said nothing, while the Pan Emperor hesitated not at all, immediately preparing to self-transform, aiming to fulfill Lee Ran.

By this moment, the Pan Emperor also had a very clear picture of the whole situation.

But just then, Zhou Yan suddenly said, "Pan Emperor, leave behind the Primordial bloodline, perhaps I might have a way... if I am not a life of the same level as you, my method of splitting the Dao should work, after all, I have experienced rebirth from a droplet of blood..."

Zhou Yan’s words finally kindled a glimmer of hope in the Pan Emperor’s eyes.

Though the hope was truly slim.

Moreover, if things kept going this way, even upon rebirth, he might only be able to start anew.

But, as long as there’s hope, as long as Lee Ran lives, a more perfect Tao establishment space is bound to appear, so the future of the Immortal Buddha Divine Race will naturally be better.

What Pan Emperor fears is not destruction, but the end, fearing that the Immortal Buddha Divine Race will come to an end at his hands, but now, it clearly seems to have a better direction.

Therefore, Pan Emperor refused Zhou Yan, saying, "No need, although there’s a possibility of existence this way, it cannot make Lee Ran perfect. Only when his Tao Establishment and his mark are complete can he be more powerful!"

Without saying much, Pan Emperor glanced at Zhou Yan, directly handing the Evil Venerate Sword to him, saying, "Zhou Yan, I’m sorry, the matter of the Evil Venerate Sword is my greatest regret."

After speaking, Pan Emperor immediately prepared to undergo Transformation.

However, Zhou Yan took the Evil Venerate Sword, and a strand of bloodline embedded itself deep within the Evil Venerate Sword, making his soul tremble intensely.

"Pan Emperor, my wives within the Evil Venerate Sword are all fine, they’re just temporarily trapped. They’re still alive and well!"

Zhou Yan said.

Pan Emperor was startled, then revealed a carefree smile.

At this moment, Lee Ran still remained motionless, but with a powerful gaze, he locked onto the Soul Emperor, making its Devour increasingly difficult, and preventing the Soul Emperor from making any move.

The scene before them was complex, yet occurred in an instant.

Soon, Pan Emperor informed Nuwa, the Emperor, and others of all the information, then radiated like a ray of light in the void.

Tears uncontrollably streamed down Zhou Yan’s eyes.

Then, Lee Ran suddenly transformed into a massive blood light, directly enveloping Pan Emperor.

Next, the ground began to tremble violently, and the massive corpse gradually rose and expanded.

The massive corpse started to shrink, but its withered body continued to perfect itself, as powerful vitality gradually converged.

"No—"

Terrified beyond belief, the Soul Emperor clutched its chest tightly, a dreadful pressure making its heart feel like it would leap out of its body.

Gradually, the massive corpse stood up, looking exactly like Lee Ran.

Now, the endless blood-colored coffin and endless blood Qi transformed into a blood-colored sword.

The blood-colored sword danced like a sword soul in the void, yet lacked the power of slaughter.

Lee Ran gazed at Zhou Yan, Zhou Yan’s body shuddered, and he immediately shot the sword from his hand without hesitation.

"Buzz—"

The void trembled violently, a terrifying power forming a destructive storm.

Then, the Evil Venerate Sword transformed into thirteen powerful female phantoms, each as beautiful and captivating.

The thirteen powerful female phantoms continually merged with the blood-colored sword soul, as if rediscovering themselves, gradually converging into a giant sword marked by thirteen Xingyi Sword Souls.

The giant sword appeared and settled down.

At this moment, Lee Ran’s corporeal body also began to change, forming something akin to a very ancient Yuan Magnetic Stone Gate.

The Yuan Magnetic Stone Gate combined with the giant sword, transforming into an unparalleled Evil Venerate Sword.

Lee Ran had become the sword hilt of the giant sword.

At that moment, Zhou Yan was dazed.

Yet the Evil Venerate Sword circled around Zhou Yan’s body.

At that moment, Zhou Yan did not even reach out to touch the Evil Venerate Sword.

The Evil Venerate Sword, responding to Zhou Yan’s will, suddenly launched toward the Soul Emperor.

"Puff—"

With that sword strike, heaven and earth collapsed.

With that sword strike, the starry sky was destroyed.

With that sword strike, the mysterious remaining domains of all ancient lands were revealed.

With that sword strike, all ancient lands transformed into a Star River’s destruction.

With that sword strike, everything was destroyed.

With that sword strike, everything was devoured.

One strike, and the Soul Emperor was reduced to ash, endless energy transforming into energy within the sword.

One strike, and the remaining four mysterious ancient lands were fully revealed, all transformed into a Primordial state, into void within the sword.

At that moment, Zhou Yan watched the scene in shock, yet he saw a completely different Tao.

Seemingly, he gained a new understanding and mastery of the unknown Tao.

He couldn’t help but lower his gaze to the immensely powerful Evil Venerate Sword in his hand, capable of instantly obliterating any Evil Venerate Realm Great Perfection, falling into deep silence.
