Chapter 456

The rainbow-colored light swept down in a pure and natural manner, causing Shi Xuan's Principal Spirit to feel more and more peaceful. He felt more and more distanced from the clamorous worries, and he felt more and more at ease.

The Bodhi Tree's heart was seized before it arrived!

However, Shi Xuan had walked step by step from a mortal to the Half-step Golden Immortal Realm and had experienced countless dangers. His Dao Heart was clear and extremely firm, and he instantly got rid of the feeling of tranquility.

The chaotic Luck Extermination Catalog flew out and grew larger as it swept towards the Bodhi Tree. The aura of termination in the catalog roiled and condensed. It was ferocious and terrifying as if it had arrived at a future that was destined to be severed. Everything would be killed, everything would collapse, and everything would be destroyed.

The rainbow-colored light descended leisurely with a pure and tranquil feeling. With a light sweep, all the roiling and terrifying aura of termination in the Luck Extermination Catalog froze as if it had fallen into a miraculous state that was neither dead nor alive, and it was easily swept to the side!

The attack of an heretic Daolord at the Law Development Realm was extremely terrifying. As soon as the Luck Extermination Catalog was swept away, the Bodhi Tree flowed with light and brushed towards Shi Xuan's Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud.

The rainbow-colored light rapidly dissipated and dimmed, and the myriad of dim white specks of light became much more tranquil.

After being blocked by the Luck Extermination Catalog, the Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud of Nihility that was 300,000 years of cultivation had been swept away.

What was even more terrifying was that the Bodhi Tree's brush caused the Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud of Nihility that was clear like water above Shi Xuan's head to tilt to the side!

Without the protection of the Dao fruit auspicious cloud, Shi Xuan's Principal Spirit was directly exposed to the rainbow-colored light of the Bodhi Tree that had its might reduced by more than half!

Once struck, it would be hard to avoid heavy injuries or even death!

This was the uniqueness of a Grand Dao of termination!

In the Half-step Golden Immortal Realm, several Grand Daos of termination were different. The Luck Extermination Great Dao specifically targeted cultivation. Even if their realms were the same, every strike would reduce the opponent's cultivation by tens of thousands of years. Once the opponent's cultivation was reduced to a certain extent, one would have the advantage. Then, the opponent would usually be directly reduced to a lower realm in just a few strikes.

The Luck Extermination Great Dao caused one's cultivation to fall into a state of despair, causing chaos and opening a path that could directly attack one's soul. The Slaughter Great Dao targeted one point. Once this point was broken, it could break the defense of one's cultivation and penetrate it. The Destruction Great Dao was similar to the Freezing Great Dao in that it would destroy one's cultivation and spread.

On the other hand, the Great Dao of Nirvana caused the Dao Fruit's auspicious cloud to enter a state of nirvana. Once it was swept to the side, the Primordial Spirit would be directly exposed.

Only today did Shi Xuan experience the might of the Nirvana Great Dao as an End Great Dao!

The Bodhi Wondrous Tree at the peak of the Half-step Golden Immortal Realm showed its ability to brush everything!

Seeing that the Bodhi Wondrous Tree was about to brush his soul, Shi Xuan did not fall into a state of nirvana where it was difficult to think. That was because the Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud that was brushed away was formed by the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice and the power of the Luck Extermination Catalog. It could not directly affect Shi Xuan's soul.

In the face of this, Shi Xuan was neither sad nor angry. He did not panic and did not have time to think too much. In a flash, he had already made a decision.

At the critical moment, an all-encompassing golden bridge appeared in the sky and blocked in front of the Bodhi Wondrous Tree. The golden lotuses on the side of the bridge fell and the golden light was extinguished. However, after being blocked by the Luck Extermination Catalog and the Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud, the seven-colored light that had exhausted its power finally dissipated and flew back.

The Taiji diagram that was wrapped around the Yin Yang Dual Qi Bottle was taken out by Shi Xuan in time.

The smooth white jade bottle trembled and a seven-colored light broke free and flew back to Dao Lord Chengkong.

Dao Lord Daokong caught the Bodhi Wondrous Tree and smiled before gently brushing it again.

The seven-colored light flowed and swept towards Shi Xuan. Although he had already achieved his goal, he still used his full strength in this attack, as though he wanted to restrain Shi Xuan directly to prevent any complications!

…

At that moment, Wang Dalu had already joined forces with Dao Lord Zheng Zhu to fight against the other two Dao Lords. He was mainly defending against Dao Lord Bukong, making up for Dao Lord Zheng Zhu's disadvantage against the Dao of Withering Glory.

Dao Lord Zheng Zhu's Nine Heavens Green Bamboo Pole was still wrapped around the Bodhi Wondrous Tree, preventing it from brushing towards him and Wang Dalu. If they were hit, they would be injured or even killed.

Although the two of them were at a disadvantage, it was difficult for Dao Lord Bukong and Dao Lord Black Cloud to shake them off.

Just as Dao Lord Bukong was prepared to help Dao Lord Chengkong even at the cost of his cultivation, he saw the seven-colored light of the Bodhi Wondrous Tree shine towards Dao Lord Chengkong. He heaved a sigh of relief and suppressed his thoughts, no longer taking such a risk. Instead, he used his divine arts to hold Wang Dalu back, preventing him from risking his cultivation to help Zhu Hongtu.

When Wang Dalu saw this, he no longer had any intention of helping Zhu Hongtu. Although Dao Lord Chengkong's injuries were not light, they were not severe either. Once he had the Bodhi Wondrous Tree, he would definitely be able to defeat Zhu Hongtu. Even if Wang Dalu rushed over to help Dao Lord Bukong and Dao Lord Black Cloud, he would only be fighting three against three instead of one against one. There would not be any fundamental change in their strength and he would only be able to delay them for a few moments at most.

However, the longer he delayed, the more advantageous it would be for Dao Lord Chengkong. Not only would Dao Lord Daokong be able to completely suppress Shi Xuan, there might even be other reinforcements arriving!

Since the defeat was already decided, Wang Dalu no longer had the intention to fight with his life on the line. Naturally, Dao Lord Zheng Zhu would not be willing to sacrifice so much for Zhu Hongtu.

…

Under the full force of Zhu Hongtu's Immortal Art, the Transcending Paramita Bodhi Destruction Boundary that Dao Lord Chengkong hastily set up did not even last for a moment. Under the Great Five Elements Yin Yang Magnetic Annihilation Divine Needle and the Purple-Green Tusita Fire, it completely dissipated.

Although Dao Lord Chengkong had also used his Immortal Art, he had relied on the Wondrous Bodhi Tree's ability to destroy everything to firmly suppress Zhu Hongtu. In reality, their cultivation levels were on par. For example, before Zhu Hongtu turned to the Great Dao of Fire, they had fought once and it ended in a draw. Moreover, most of Dao Lord Chengkong's strength came from the Wondrous Bodhi Tree. Once it was taken away by Shi Xuan, he was clearly far inferior to Zhu Hongtu.

Dao Lord Chengkong saw that he was going to have to rely on his cultivation to hold on and hope that Zhu Hongtu's Great Five Elements Yin Yang Magnetic Annihilation Divine Needle and the Purple-Green Tusita Fire would not injure his Essence Spirit severely. He could not help but feel a hint of bitterness that did not affect his Dao heart and judgment.

However, at this moment, he suddenly realized that his connection with his Destiny Numinous Treasure, the Wondrous Bodhi Tree, had become clear again.

Therefore, with his full strength, the seven-colored light broke free from the Yin Yang Dual Qi Bottle's restraint and flew back rapidly.

With a light brush, the needles of destruction of the five colors of red, green, yellow, white, and black were brushed aside.

With the Wondrous Bodhi Tree in hand, Dao Lord Chengkong's aura surged.

…

When Dao Lord Daokong leisurely brushed out the Wondrous Bodhi Tree with a smile, his heart was neither sad nor happy. As for the lush Bodhi Tree on the Tranquil Nirvana Bodhi Art's auspicious cloud, it was preparing to cast the Bodhi Heart Mantra, a supreme Buddhist divine ability. After the Wondrous Bodhi Tree brushed away Shi Xuan's Dao Fruit auspicious cloud, it would be taken down.

The Luck Extermination Catalog had just broken free from its state of nirvana and had yet to return. Although the Taiji Painting was beside Shi Xuan, it and other divine abilities could not stop the Wondrous Bodhi Tree that could destroy everything.

However, all of a sudden, Dao Lord Daokong felt the Void Universe turn indescribably dark. A boundless, ancient, and transcendent aura surged forth. Yin death and life seemed to be one, as if it was describing the secrets of life and death in all the worlds in the universe, announcing the path to transcend life and death!

"Life and Death Daozu!"

Dao Lord Daokong was extremely shocked. He really made the Life and Death Daozu attack?!

Shi Xuan had studied the Life and Death Daozu's augmentations for ten thousand years, so how could he not have gained something? Combined with the eruption of his remaining aura, he actually created a scene that looked like Daozu's descent!

Facing a Connate Golden Immortal, Dao Lord Daokong could not help but feel a faint sense of despair. After all, he was suspected of bullying the weak, and his master might not help him.

However, being able to reach this realm meant that his Dao heart was extraordinary. He instantly suppressed his various thoughts and the Wondrous Bodhi Tree flew back, its seven-colored light protecting him. He cast the Bodhi Heart Mantra, and faint green light lit up around him. At the same time, he began to activate the Spacetime Beacon Gate that Nirvana Daoist had augmented.

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he was just doing his best!

Shi Xuan was very clear about this. In such a dangerous situation, an ordinary half-step Golden Immortal would either choose to stay still or choose to protect himself and try his best to escape. No one would waste time to distinguish the real from the fake. It was naturally good if it was fake, but if it was real, and they missed the last chance to escape, they would definitely die!

This scene was especially real for Dao Lord Daokong, who was already afraid of the Life and Death Daozu. It caused him to make all sorts of decisions subconsciously.

From the moment he determined Dao Lord Daokong's state of mind, Shi Xuan had already been prepared to use this method!

An instant later, the feeling of the Life and Death Great Dao eliminating all other Great Daos came over, and there was no undefeatable power attacking him. Dao Lord Daokong was instantly puzzled. Without hesitation, he stopped activating the Spacetime Beacon Gate and spread out his immortal sense.

This caused Dao Lord Daokong's emotions to fluctuate slightly. He saw that the Void Universe had returned to normal, and the feeling of Daozu's descent had disappeared.

How could he not understand that he had been fooled by Shi Xuan's strange method!

Shi Xuan had taken advantage of the time when he was focused on protecting himself and escaping to the place where Zhu Hongtu and Dao Lord Cheng Kong were fighting!

With a shake of his left hand, the taiji diagram transformed into a Paramita Golden Bridge and descended, suppressing Dao Lord Cheng Kong's Wondrous Bodhi Tree. With a point of his right hand, the chaotic color Luck Destruction Diagram flew out and wrapped around Dao Lord Cheng Kong.

As the range of Shi Xuan's methods was limited, Dao Lord Cheng Kong did not directly sense Daozu's descent. He only knew that something strange had happened. However, just as he was about to send the taiji diagram down, Zhu Hongtu, who had seen hope in this desperate situation, once again released the five-colored divine light, covering the Wondrous Bodhi Tree. Together with Shi Xuan's taiji diagram, they completely suppressed the Wondrous Bodhi Tree!

Seeing this, Dao Lord Daokong suppressed his various emotions. With a flash of rainbow light, he swept towards Shi Xuan.

However, Shi Xuan's position was very strange. He was actually between Zhu Hongtu and Dao Lord Cheng Kong. At that moment, Zhu Hongtu tilted his body slightly, intentionally or unintentionally. The purple and green light shone and completely blocked Shi Xuan.

Dao Lord Daokong's gaze focused. If he hit Zhu Hongtu, wouldn't he be interfering with Dao Lord Cheng Kong's grand wish and causing Dao Lord Cheng Kong to fail?!

With Zhu Hongtu's help to block Shi Xuan, there would be karma between the two of them. However, this karma would only be established after Zhu Hongtu was truly blocked. Right now, there was no karma between the two of them.

With a single thought from Dao Lord Daokong, the rainbow light turned and moved to the side, avoiding Zhu Hongtu and Shi Xuan at the same time!

The Luck Destruction Diagram grew larger and larger, enveloping Dao Lord Cheng Kong, who was protected by the Tranquil Nirvana Bodhi Mystic Art Auspicious Cloud. At the same time, Shi Xuan's Nine Nether Doumu Auspicious Cloud lit up. Progenitor Doumu appeared and a dim white light shot down, locking onto Dao Lord Cheng Kong's Dao Fruit Bodhi.
