Chapter 292: Chapter 168: Plucking the Strings of All Phenomena, Void-Slaying Sword (Double-Length)

The familiar sword light soared into the sky, as if to slice open everything before it.

Once, Chen Kuang had seen the same sword coming from the west of the Imperial City, destroying the entire Wind and Rain Pavilion before his eyes, and a Half-Step Grandmaster dying nonchalantly under the sword.

At this moment, this sword was equally stunning, even more so, but the enemy it faced was of a strength several hundred, even thousand times that of the Half-Step Grandmaster!

The woman’s silhouette in front of Chen Kuang, her waterfall-like jet-black long hair wildly fluttering in the wind, a wide Profound Robe flowing like a butterfly about to take flight.

The vague veil had been worn away by the violent wind, revealing a pale, exceedingly beautiful, cold countenance amidst the dancing strands of hair.

Shen Meinan and Shen Xingzhu were indeed twins, Chen Kuang couldn’t help but think to himself.

Their appearances were at least sixty percent alike.

Yet Shen Meinan was still too tender, with a bit more naive girlishness, her brows and eyes not fully developed, far less than Shen Xingzhu’s face, which was cold as an immortal with a peerless appearance.

Anyone who had seen Shen Xingzhu’s face would surely think, if there were immortals in the world, they should look like this!

"Chii!"

Shen Meinan thrust her sword from bottom to top, slicing a rift through the tiger’s mouth of the giant pale hand!

The souls of countless disciples of the Mystic God Daoist Sect self-exploded below, yet unable to cause real damage to the giant pale hand, merely superficial wounds.

Sufficient to see the immense power of this sword.

But this sword did not stop here.

The rift in the giant hand’s tiger’s mouth unfolded instantly, and the equally pale skin, flesh, and bones like stone shattered at this moment!

"Boom!"

Like a mountain collapsing, the thumb of the giant pale hand fell back, actually sliced off by Shen Meinan’s sword!

Chen Kuang faintly sensed from this sword a trace of "Dao Realm" forming.

She... is entering Profound?!

Chen Kuang was first stunned, he instinctively thought it impossible, after all, he was the one who destroyed Shen Xingzhu’s Dao Heart, theoretically, Shen Xingzhu should now have only one route to rebuild her Dao Heart, namely re-cultivation...

Directly destroying her cultivation, voluntarily retreating to the Moon Embrace Realm, then choosing a different path.

But the difficulty of doing so would be extraordinarily high.

After all, questioning the heavens also has requirements, otherwise wouldn’t everyone be able to prove the Dao?

If the universe believes you cannot walk this path, then asking is in vain...

The Dao that can be self-recognized typically only exists as one.

Changing paths completely is extremely difficult for a cultivator.

Of course, if it’s Shen Xingzhu, no one would question it.

But regardless of whether the person before him was Shen Xingzhu or not, Chen Kuang did not believe she could immediately find another path in such a short time.

Furthermore... the aura of this "Dao Realm" clearly hasn’t changed.

Chen Kuang’s heart was full of questions.

But as soon as his gaze fell on the back of the person before him, these questions disappeared—

Standing unhesitatingly in front of him could only be Shen Meinan.

"Shen Xingzhu... truly remarkable!"

Wen Yao took a deep breath, his left thumb spontaneously snapped.

Though he could not see who was in front, he could feel from whom the artistic conception contained in this sword originated.

Apart from Shen Xingzhu, he had no other thoughts!

Being called a "Dao Beacon" by the master, she truly displayed the powerful qualities of a "Dao Beacon".

Despite being at the Grandmaster Realm, Half-Step into Profound, she could actually harm the body of the "Ancestral God"!

Such talent and capability had reached an unimaginable level.

Were it the past Wen Yao, he would surely lament at his inferiority, like gazing up at the heavenly people.

But at this moment, he was about to practice the "Only Me" Dao, naturally he could not harbor a sense of inferiority, else he would sever his own Dao path.

Wen Yao’s sigh was merely a fleeting thought before he sneered:

"Unfortunately... after today, there will only be one ’Dao Beacon’ in Cangyuan, and that’s me!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

He looked toward the battlefield littered with corpses.

"The Mystic God Daoist Sect shall crumble like the sands in this Pinggu Battlefield, scattered by the wind!"

He took a deep breath, raising his hands again to clasp them together.

"Boom..."

The two massive pale giant hands, following his actions, suddenly clasped together.

On the giant pale hand, numerous intricate blood-red patterns lit up, covering the entire arm, an ancient and primitive aura instantly suppressing the entire battlefield!

All remaining cultivators were at this moment directly pressed to kneel by the ancient primitive aura.

Any who attempted resistance were immediately crushed to body-explosion death!

The rest could not even raise their heads, forced to kneel on the ground, bodies trembling, involuntarily feeling fear.

As if it came from... some terrifying imprint etched in their bloodline!

At the moment this aura exploded, the giant hands simultaneously clasped.

Shen Meinan’s soaring Sword Qi shattered!

"Pfft!"

Shen Meinan spat a mouthful of fresh blood, face turning pale, her body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, caught by Chen Kuang.

When Chen Kuang touched Shen Meinan’s back, he immediately felt a tremendous force transmitting from his fingertips through his arm, and even throughout his body!

This force was absolutely beyond his current ability to resist; he could clearly feel, even with the nearly unlimited Spiritual Qi of the Moon Robe protecting him, his arm was still fracturing inch by inch from the fingertips, and the flesh was crushed by this force into a pool of sludge.
