Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 603 - 590: Duty
The timing of the Ancient Immortal Alliance's five Immortal Kings was exquisite.
At that moment, Wu Mu Immortal King was engaging in a desperate struggle, ready to forsake millions of years of cultivation to muster the Fatal Kill blow for Dragon Elephant Immortal King.
Facing this Fatal Kill, both Reversal Immortal King and Alpha Immortal King grew fearful and stopped midway.
The unexpected withdrawal of these two Immortal Kings put Xuan Qing Immortal King, who was confident in breaking through the Supreme Immortal Technique known as Heavenly Punishment, in extreme peril.
The collision of the Supreme Immortal Techniques, Reversal and Heavenly Punishment, unleashed a cataclysmic shockwave that swept across half of the Immortal Realm.
Within millions of miles, even an entire region was affected, and tens of thousands of Immortal Cities collapsed and shattered to dust.
At the epicenter of this rampant destruction, not only did Xuan Qing Immortal King suffer grievous injuries, but two Immortal King Level directors also had their Immortal Bodies utterly annihilated, and far worse than Wu Mu Immortal King, they left not even a shred of their Remnant Souls, instantly erased from existence.
Millions, to tens of millions, of years required to reach the Eighteenth Level of authority were wiped clean in an instant.
Thousands of Great Dao Shares surged out from the two fallen Immortal Kings, which, had there been enough Shattered Void present, could have potentially given rise to numerous Dao Lords.
"HAHAHA!"
In the midst of uproarious laughter, Dragon Elephant Immortal King, whose Immortal Body was ruptured by the Supreme Immortal Technique, activated a Secret Treasure, wrapping his Remnant Soul and speeding toward the direction of the Tianyuan Group in an attempt to escape.
However, he was obliterated on the spot by an Ancient Immortal Alliance Immortal King who intervened at this critical moment.
The laughter ceased abruptly.
Appearing out of nowhere, Tianming Immortal King unleashed a mighty Immortal Technique, previously poised for action, that descended upon Xuan Qing Immortal King, the greatest threat to the Ancient Immortal Alliance.
The other four great Immortal Kings simultaneously struck, targeting the other two dangerously positioned great Immortal Kings, and aiming at the retreating Reversal and Alpha Immortal Kings.
"Tianming!"
Within the surge of Xuan Qing Immortal King's Divine Sense, rage and murderous intent welled.
At that moment, he seemed to have suddenly realized something.
Whether it was their intent to deal a fatal blow to Dragon Elephant Immortal King and his comrades, or the desperate final stand of Dragon Elephant Immortal King and Wu Mu Immortal King, something seemed abnormal.
Combining this with Tianming Immortal King's sudden appearance, and the treasure in the hands of the Ancient Immortal Alliance Leader, brimming with the authority of Destiny...
"Is it you!?"
Everything became clear in an instant.
"You guessed right; I reward you by becoming a light that shall illuminate the Immortal Realm!"
The Immortal Technique condensed by Tianming Immortal King came crashing down fiercely.
He himself wielded the Order Great Dao.
But over countless years, with the convenience of his status as the Ancient Immortal Alliance Leader and wielding various Immortal Artifacts, he had already mastered tens of other Great Dao Techniques through Dual Cultivation.
The Dao Technique he executed, although not as potent as Xuan Qing Immortal King's Reversal or Dragon Elephant Immortal King's death-defying Heavenly Punishment, still invoked a resonance with eighty-one different Great Daos.
Without the assistance of the Master of Primordial Yi, he comprehended eighty other Great Daos beyond the Order Great Dao relying solely on his own power, and has cultivated a Supreme Composite Immortal Technique.
From this, one can see the astonishing talent of Tianming Immortal King.
At this moment, a Supreme Immortal Technique, rooted in the Order Great Dao and amalgamating a total of eighty-one Great Daos, plummeted down, and precisely when Xuan Qing Immortal King had just barely withstood a Supreme Immortal Technique, exceeding his limits of endurance.
"No!"

Amidst an unwilling burst of Divine Sense, he condensed all the Power of the Great Dao within him into a single point. As if making one final gamble, he transformed it into a decisive, fateful blow, fiercely aiming at Tianming Immortal King's ready Supreme Immortal Technique.
The head-on clash of the two Immortal Techniques once again unleashed a Destruction Torrent nearly as devastating as the previous Supreme Immortal Technique duel.
The area with the two at its center, spanning millions of miles, was directly reduced to Chaos.
Alkaid could even see through these zones, peering into the infinite Nothingness behind the Chaos.
Already gravely injured, Xuan Qing Immortal King, despite focusing all his Great Dao power to scatter Tianming Immortal King's counterattack, ultimately could not endure the "recoil" force from their Immortal Techniques clashing.
Ultimately, his Immortal Body disintegrated, relying only on his remaining strength to enshroud his Soul...
Or rather, the Nineteen Level authority core, attempting to flee from this place.
It was at this moment; Alkaid's Divine Sense arrived swiftly as lightning: "Chairman, come to me, I am the Void Immortal King, I have a way to bring you out unscathed!"
Feeling this Divine Sense, Xuan Qing was deeply shaken.
A joy of escaping death quickly pervaded his Soul.
In a daze, he seemed to see a holy light shining down from the heavens, dispersing the gloom hanging over their hearts in one fell swoop.
Yes!
They still have Yu Xiao Immortal King!
Yu Xiao Immortal King, who was busy refining the Void Share from Tian Yu Immortal King, did not participate in the siege just now and is still in his prime.
And...
He has received the inheritance of the Void Ancestor, his Realm is extremely high, and as a Void Immortal King, even if he cannot overcome the suddenly emerged Ancient Immortal Alliance Immortal King, it is not too much to hope that he can lead them all to retreat unscathed.
At this thought, Xuan Qing felt like he had survived a calamity, and his Divine Sense instantly relayed to the other major directors: "Quick! Gather around Director Yu Xiao and let Director Yu Xiao lead us in the retreat!"
At this moment, two directors who had been trapped by Alpha and Reversal Immortal King also chose to self-destruct their Immortal Bodies, leveraging their Remnant Souls to preserve their Eighteenth Level privileges.
Upon receiving Xuan Qing's message, they grasped it like a lifeline and rushed towards Alkaid at top speed.
"I have a treasure, named the Human Emperor Banner, which can augment the mind and nourish the Soul. Hurry, the three directors, come into my Human Emperor Banner."
Alkaid took out a top-tier Immortal Artifact for soul and consciousness imprisonment that had been refined in the past and beckoned it with an empty hand.
With both Xuan Qing, the chairman, and the other two directors flying towards it cooperatively, it was a perfect match.
The chairman of Creation Group and the two directors entered the Human Emperor Banner.
"Yu Xiao!"
Almost simultaneously as several Immortal Kings of Creation Group flew into the Human Emperor Banner, Tianming Immortal King quickly reached a spot not far from Alkaid.
But he did not initiate an attack immediately; instead, he spoke up: "I should call you Alkaid! Because I know that you are different from the other Immortal Kings of the Primordial Source Realm; you have higher ideals and aspirations! Your goal is not just to elevate your own privileges to Nineteen Level or even to an entity comparable to the Master of Creation at Level Twenty, but to rule over a world and become a great life, on par with the Master of Primordial Yi!"
Alkaid, upon seeing this, paused in movement: "How so?"
"Everything is guided by destiny."
Tianming Immortal King spoke with certainty: "The Master of Primordial Yi can monitor the Immortal Realm, so why are there still so many accidents beyond his control within the Immortal Realm? It is because of the presence of the powers of destiny and causality. Compared with the Master of Primordial Yi, the powers of destiny and causality are far more profound. Do you think the Master of Primordial Yi's attack on our Ancient Immortal Realm is for what? It is to covet the mysteries of destiny and to try to transform himself with the Power of Destiny into a more supreme, greater new life!"
"You wouldn't be telling me that everything is under the control of destiny? That destiny is more powerful than the Master of Primordial Yi?"
Alkaid seemed intrigued.
"Exactly."
Tianming Immortal King nodded: "The Primordial Source Realm wants to devour our Ancient Immortal Realm, and isn't our Ancient Immortal Realm just as eager to devour the Primordial Source Realm? For countless years, the evolution of the Ancient Immortal Realm has already reached a critical point, urgently needing to undergo another transformation to become a truly great world, allowing the Daoist Ancestors who originally stood at the pinnacle of the Ancient Immortal Realm to step into a new domain. And the chance for this transformation lies within the Primordial Source Realm."
He sneered: "To outsiders, it may seem that the Primordial Source Realm is in an absolute advantage, even infiltrating the entire Ancient Immortal Realm, but in reality, at the moment they infiltrated their power into the Ancient Immortal Realm, they have already lost."
The Immortal King's eyes carried a hint of zeal: "Right now, the power of destiny has been activated, and the Primordial Source Realm and the Ancient Immortal Realm will merge into one, but the one who will ultimately control it will not be the Primordial Source Master of Primordial Yi but the Gate of Destiny in our Ancient Immortal Realm!"
"Destiny."
Alkaid listened, frowning slightly.
The Ancient Immortal Realm's seeming defeat...
Merely akin to luring the enemy deeper in?
"But, the price you've paid seems too steep; both the Time Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor have sacrificed themselves. Whether this is a defeat or a trap, any discerning person could clearly see."
Alkaid said.
"It is part of the plan; to lure the enemy requires a sufficiently valuable bait."
Tianming Immortal King was not surprised by Alkaid's question: "This plan was set in motion when the Time Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor infiltrated long ago. At that time, the Void Ancestor and Time Daoist Ancestor intended to bring their power into the Primordial Source Realm, like the Immortal Spirits invaded our Ancient Immortal Realm, allowing the force of the Ancient Immortal Realm to flourish throughout the Primordial Source Realm. But later, they realized this was not viable."
His gaze fell upon Alkaid: "So, they concentrated their power and planted a seed within the Primordial Source Realm, leaving behind an inheritance! An inheritance that could elude the detection of the Primordial Source Realm!"
A seed?
An inheritance?
Alkaid seemed to have guessed what Tianming Immortal King wanted to say.
And he, just as Alkaid had anticipated, spoke with hope and desire: "And you, are the cultivator of that seed, the inheritor of that legacy, the Void Ancestor and Time Daoist Ancestor have never truly left us but have been reborn in the form of incarnating as you! Thus, by nature, you should stand with us, join hands with us, reverse the situation, and sound the trumpet of the Ancient Immortal Realm's formal counterattack against the Primordial Source Realm!"
"Born to stand with you..."
Alkaid found these words somewhat repellent.
"You should also be aware of the Master of Primordial Yi's goal, that once He achieves final victory, the entire Ancient Immortal Realm will cease to exist, and all living beings that exist based on the Three Thousand Great Daos will be devoured by the Master of Primordial Yi, becoming part of Him. Therefore, even just to 'survive' on, you ought to stand with us, to resist to the end."
Tianming Immortal King looked at Alkaid, his eyes shining brightly: "Moreover, since you have received the inheritance of the Void Ancestor and Time Daoist Ancestor, you naturally should take up the responsibility you are burdened with and proactively carry the banner of resistance against the Primordial Source Realm!"
After speaking, he emphasized once more: "With great power comes great responsibility; that is your obligation and the meaning of life bestowed upon you by this inheritance!"
