Chapter 459: all living beings Perish, Heavenly Dao Reboots [Third update, requesting monthly votes]

Su Qi frowned, knowing that Sage of Destiny was trying to bewitch him.

But thinking of Han Jue's words, this was a trap.

Su Qi looked up, and at the ends of all directions between heaven and earth, gigantic figures were appearing and growing larger; these figures were at least God Realm existences.

At this moment, Su Qi felt a sense of desolation.

Others always fought in groups, but only he, whether fighting for himself or for Heavenly Court, was forever alone.

Su Qi thought of the Divine Summoning Art; he could invite Han Jue to help.

Although Han Jue said he wouldn't care about them, he believed that if he cast the Divine Summoning Art, Han Jue would definitely make a move.

No!

How could I have such a thought?

"Master has already helped me so much, how can I drag him into the calamity?"

Su Qi's eyes grew increasingly fierce.

Since it had come to this, he could only fight to the death!

At worst, he would just die!

He had lived enough in this lifetime!

Su Qi raised his right hand and laughed wildly and rebelliously, "Today, I'd like to see which of you can kill me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all living beings between heaven and earth flew into a rage, crazily rushing toward him.

The image froze. Su Qi, besieged by all living beings of heaven and earth, was so tiny, resembling a pebble in the mountain forest that would be submerged by the boundless living beings in the next moment.

…

In a flash, another forty years had passed since Wu Dao was slain.

On this day, Han Jue felt unsettled.

He was a Daluo; he wouldn't develop emotions for no reason. Something must have happened.

He immediately brought up his mail to check.

[Your Disciple Su Qi cast the Dao Annihilation Divine Ability, and his Luck plummeted.]

[Your friend Mo Fuchou suffered an attack from a mysterious force and died, his body and soul destroyed.]

[Your friend Shu Jinxing suffered an attack from a mysterious force and died, his body and soul destroyed.]

[Your Dao Companion Xuan Qingjun suffered an attack from a mysterious force, but fortunately was protected by the Celestials' Luck.]

[Your friend Great Emperor Yan Jun suffered an attack from a mysterious force and died, his body and soul destroyed.]

[Your friend Huang Zuntian suffered an attack from a mysterious force, but fortunately was protected by the Celestials' Luck.]

[Your friend Han Ming suffered an attack from a mysterious force and died, his body and soul destroyed.]

[Your friend Han Ming had a Saint intervene to revive his last wisp of soul.]

…

Looking all the way down, so many had died with their bodies and souls destroyed!

His friends on the Heavenly Court side were almost all dead.

Han Jue frowned. Why did Su Qi still cast the Dao Annihilation Divine Ability?

Han Jue asked, "How many living beings died across the heavens of the Heavenly Dao because of Su Qi?"

[Requires deducting one billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

[Ninety percent of all living beings have completely perished, and the specific number is hard to estimate.]

Han Jue fell silent.

So many.

Han Jue checked Su Qi's cultivation, which was still at the First Revolution Immortal Emperor Realm. However, casting the Dao Annihilation Divine Ability would drop one major Realm, meaning that Su Qi previously had already reached the God Realm.

Too ruthless.

Was this the Dao Annihilation Divine Ability?

If a Saint were to cast it, wouldn't all living beings of the Heavenly Dao perish completely?

[Qiu Xilai is sending you a Dream Message. Do you wish to accept it?]

[Qiu Xilai is sending you a Dream Message. Do you wish to accept it?]

[Qiu Xilai is sending you a Dream Message. Do you wish to accept it?]

…

This fellow truly couldn't wait even a moment.

Accept!

Han Jue's consciousness entered the dream.

It was still the familiar grand hall and the familiar golden Buddha.

Qiu Xilai said in a deep voice, "Your Disciple Su Qi cast the Dao Annihilation Divine Ability, slaughtering all living beings and forcibly ending the Immeasurable Calamity."

Han Jue was shocked and asked, "Dao Annihilation Divine Ability? What is that? How could he have such capability?"

He grew increasingly panicked, as if he had heard shocking bad news.

"What a monstrous Karma this must be…"

Han Jue muttered to himself. Whether Qiu Xilai believed it or not, anyway, he believed that he knew nothing about this matter at all.

Qiu Xilai sighed, "Not only the Immortal Realm, but other Mortal Realms are also the same—utterly dead and silent. Your Disciple is doomed; even I cannot save him."

Han Jue frowned.

Qiu Xilai changed the subject and said, "He must die; otherwise, it will be hard to appease the anger of the other Saints, nor can we give an explanation to the Heavenly Dao. I can only help him preserve a wisp of a remnant soul and hand it over to you in the future. From now on, he is not allowed to appear within the range of the Heavenly Dao again, or else his body and soul will be utterly destroyed."

Han Jue understood that this was already the best outcome.

He quickly bowed in gratitude to Qiu Xilai and asked with a puzzled expression, "Such a powerful Divine Ability, where did my Disciple learn it from?"

Qiu Xilai sighed, "The Dao Annihilation Divine Ability was passed down by the Dao Ancestor to the Saints. Presumably, your Disciple was also utilized by other Saints. As for who it is, I cannot tell you for the time being. You cannot bear the Karma of Saints right now, and I am doing this for your own good."

Han Jue fell silent.

It seemed that Qiu Xilai might be in the same boat as Sage of Destiny.

He would deduce it again after returning.

Anyway, he didn't completely trust Qiu Xilai or Empress Nuwa; he just lacked the strength, so he could only pretend to trust them.

"The tribulation can be considered over. Within ten years, the Saints will disperse the Karma of heaven and earth, and after that, you can return to the Immortal Realm at any time," Qiu Xilai continued.

Han Jue asked, "When will the Immortal Realm be filled with living beings again?"

Qiu Xilai said, "During the gestation of heaven and earth, all kinds of living beings will eventually be born. You can also take this opportunity to preach the Dao and establish a sect. Millions of years later, you will be a mighty figure revered by all living beings between heaven and earth, just like the Buddha Ancestor, Heavenly Emperor, and Demon Emperor of the past."

Han Jue sighed.

The calamity was a tribulation of death!

Only a few people could jump out of this tribulation!

The living beings who survived would Cultivate with peace of mind. With the accumulation of time, they would sooner or later surpass all living beings.

It was equivalent to Cultivating countless years earlier than the new living beings. Even ordinary living beings could endure and become mighty figures.

"After the calamity ends, the Saints can no longer make a move under the Heavenly Dao. You can rest assured about this point. Those who rule over all living beings are the Celestials, and their Clan Chief is an old acquaintance of yours whom you will know later in the future. In other words, you can return with peace of mind, and there will be no more danger."

As Qiu Xilai's voice fell, the dream shattered accordingly.

Han Jue's consciousness returned to reality, and he subsequently asked, "Were Qiu Xilai's words just now all true?"

[Requires deducting four billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

[True.]

Han Jue breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he truly prepared to return to the Immortal Realm, he would still need to perform a deduction.

Han Jue continued to ask, "What is the relationship between Qiu Xilai and Sage of Destiny?"

[Requires deducting four billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

[According to Favorability, they have 3-star Favorability toward each other.]

3 stars!

That is to say, they were temporarily in cahoots, but there was a possibility of a falling out!

As expected, Qiu Xilai could not be completely trusted.

Han Jue thought silently.

Thinking of the end of the calamity and the reboot of the Heavenly Dao, Han Jue felt a myriad of emotions in his heart.

Fortunately, he had moved the Reroll World out in advance; otherwise, the Reroll World would have been gone too.

Wait!

In that case, wouldn't the Reroll World be the only Mortal Realm under the Heavenly Dao?

If he were to develop it a bit more…

Han Jue's heartbeat sped up, and he didn't dare to think about it too deeply.

He could already see endless power and benefits surging toward him.

As long as he put in a little effort, he might even become the existence with the greatest power under the Saints!

Even more powerful than past overlords like the Heavenly Emperor, Zu Tu, and Heavenly Dao Buddha Ancestor!

"Something is wrong! This is a trap!"

"To destroy a person, one must first drive them mad!"

"The Saints want to harm me!"

"I cannot appear in the open, but I can support my Disciples instead… Before the next calamity, if I Attain the Dao and become a Saint, the other Heavenly Dao Saints will definitely not be my match, and all the major powers under the entire Heavenly Dao will be branches of the Hidden Sect. Wouldn't that mean…"

The more Han Jue thought about it, the faster his heartbeat became.

Having been manipulated by the Saints for so long, it was time for him to rise up!

A brand new era was about to arrive, and Han Jue could finally be considered to have made it through bitter days. This was the victory of bitter cultivation~~
