Chapter 1680 – Fulfillment of a long-cherished wish

　　However, I was able to tell from his eyes how strong his will is, even if he pays a greater price, he will definitely make such an attempt, after all, there is no cultivator in this world who doesn’t want to have true immortality.

　　In other words, as long as they are able to achieve true immortality of their physical body and soul, then whether their cultivation level is high or low, it doesn’t mean anything to them.”

　　”Old thing don’t try to hijack the Corrupted Divine Vein, something like this Earth Decimating Divine Object is simply not something that a powerhouse of your level can covet, you’re too greedy, and your ambitions are far beyond what you can bear.

　　If I’m not wrong in my judgment, you’ve been tasting the pain on this kind of flesh for more than 100,000 years, but you’ve only managed to transform half of your flesh into this kind of decayed form.

　　According to my guess, this is still far from reaching the toughest first step of the entire devouring process, because only if you let your skull also be completely devoured by this endless rotting aura and your soul essence is still able to remain under such conditions without losing contact with your fleshly body, will you be able to have a chance to impact the true eternity, and regrettably you’ll never have such a chance again. ”

　　The Smoky Cloud Divinity said, directly launching herself at the half-skeleton state of the old man in front of her, clearly intending to interrupt him and forcefully devour the Corrupted Divine Vein.

　　Apparently she succeeded, because although this sword did not seriously injure this old man, it was deeply inserted into his chest, striking a hideous ragged hole in his flesh, and in order to impact perfection, eternity in the true sense of the word, such a process was absolutely not allowed to exist.

　　A stripe with no way to bridge it had appeared on the old man’s sternum, lifting a gaping hole in its near-perfect devouring process.

　　This sword had completely enraged the old man, he roared in mad fury, all of his efforts over the past 100,000 years had all gone down the drain, and in the next he also put his breath.

　　It was firmly locked onto the body of the Smoky Cloud God.

　　”You damned woman, I’ll make sure to leave you in pieces to pay for disrupting my plans.”

　　In the next instant the old man almost completely detached himself out of thin air, his almost remaining physical body, and using only his incomparably powerful spiritual energy he flew out of the depths of that dark cave and lunged towards the Smoky Xia Upper God.

　　Xu Yang sneered, his body immediately following.

　　This old fellow’s soul aura moved to make a move, blocking in front of the Smoky Xia Upper God’s body.

　　”Just by virtue of you wanting to injure my people you’re not qualified.”

　　Xu Yang violently raised his right hand, the incomparably powerful Taiji Totem, quickly surfaced, Yin and Yang rotated, endless births and deaths, the moment his self-created Taiji Laws appeared, the soul of this old man in front of him completely froze in place, wasn’t this exactly the true Dao Fruit that he had been pursuing for more than a hundred thousand years?

　　If this hundred thousand years of his devouring career had Xu Yang’s Taiji Way as its theoretical foundation, I’m afraid that he would have already accomplished his true eternal pursuit.

　　Unfortunately.

　　When he knew all of this, he no longer had any chance to impact and achieve true eternity.

　　”Kid, you were actually able to attract me to further comprehend the secrets of cracking the Great Dao of Life and Death, this Could this be the arrangement of fate?

　　If this law of yours is used as a foundation, then the decaying aura will be perfectly combined with the endless vitality.

　　As long as the structure of the meridians in the body is changed.

　　By creating a form based on this particular law, one could achieve the perfect balance between the life force and the corrupted death aura in their body.

　　In this way, one’s body will produce a constant stream of life force and will never go into decay.

　　Oh my god, I have really realized my long-cherished wish of understanding the only mystery in this world, but unfortunately I don’t have the chance to achieve this wish.

　　Today, I will spell out this old life to kill the three of you, in this way, there will be no one in this world who can stop me from achieving true eternity, once I devour this one spine, I will be the only some of the supreme gods in this world, controlling the destiny of all living beings in the main continent.”

　　Xu Yang laughed out loud.

　　”I’m not going to lie to you, I just deliberately struck out this Taiji Way Law that I created myself to seal the only doubt in my heart.

　　And it is also counted as a way to help you fulfill your final obsession.

　　Yet you don’t seem to have understood another truth.

　　A step towards the end before success, that is the greatest sorrow of a person, and you will be the saddest of all cultivators in this world.”

　　Xu Yang’s words had completely enraged this old man in front of him, and had also plunged him into endless fear, because he really didn’t want to become that stepping stone that was the closest to eternity.

　　”Hehe, just who will become that saddest person, this battle will give us the answer, and until you completely defeat me, you are not qualified to say that.”

　　The old man emitted an incomparably powerful corrupted aura, and at the same time, behind him, a rather regular and rhythmically functioning formation of corrupted aura condensation began to form, and that was the most powerful Holy Dharma Upanishad of the Underworld Imperial Clan’s lineage.

　　”Immediately the three of you will see the most terrifying nightmare you’ve ever seen in your lives, this is the forbidden holy law of our Underworld Imperial Clan, once it is cast all life forces within the formation will go to decay and wither, I would like to see what means the three of you use to resist my power.”

　　As soon as the words fell, an infinite amount of decaying aura coalesced together along with the power of the formation.

　　It began to surge madly towards the location where Xu Yang’s trio had landed, until that complete Underworld Totem.

　　Evolution was complete.

　　An incomparably dense mesh-like purple structure emerged above Xu Yang’s trio’s heads.

　　It was because of the confinement of this mesh-like structure of energy that the three of them completely lost their judgment of all the space around them.

　　”Hahahaha, you guys in the middle of my formation will continue to lose all the instincts you possess with the passage of time, until you even forget the instinct to resist and fall asleep in it forever, this is the most powerful use of the law of the power of decay.

　　This is the most powerful use of the power of decay, and also represents the most powerful force of our Underworld Royal Clan lineage.

　　All along, among the six human spirit veins, only our Underworld vein is the least valued, because we are the group of people closest to death and decay.

　　Ever since we achieved the royal family system of one lineage.

　　We have been considered by the world as the most evil cultivators.

　　That’s why I’m going to exchange the crimes that all of us in the lineage of the Underworld Imperial Clan have carried for a true redemption through this battle.

　　Because once I can achieve true eternity, no one in this world will ever look down on our Underworld Imperial Clan again.

　　It is to use my own life to prove that what is birthed amidst the extremely corrosive and deathly aura is what can truly be eternally alive.”

　　It had to be said that when this old fellow uttered such words, Xu Yang instinctively looked at him with a high regard, at least it could prove that this old thing wasn’t in just for his own selfish desires alone.
