Chapter 655: Sword Suppresses the Three Ancestors, Awe-Shaking Hongyuan
"Master/Grandmaster, be careful!"
Inside the Wendao Sect, everyone seeing this scene cried out in alarm. Only Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen remained silent—they firmly believed their Master would be absolutely fine.
Just as they expected, in the sky, Chu Feng once again waved the feather fan in his hand, and a dharma form appeared behind him. The dharma form's large hand easily blocked the Qilin Ancestor's enraged strike.
"This is impossible!"
The Qilin Ancestor seeing this scene subconsciously cried out in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor widened their eyes, looking at this human before them with astonishment. They hadn't expected him to be this powerful.
From their experience fighting the Qilin Ancestor, that earlier strike had used seventy percent of his power, yet it was blocked so effortlessly by this human.
The most surprised were the living beings of the three clans. This was the first time they had seen a powerful being capable of receiving a strike from the Three Ancestors. Just what kind of existence was that man?
"Who exactly are you, sir?"
The Phoenix Ancestor, being the most rational, was the first to ask.
"I am the Dao Ancestor."
Chu Feng smilingly announced his title.
Dao Ancestor!!!
These two words were deeply imprinted in the minds of all living beings present. He was the fourth existence in this world to transcend godhood.
The Dragon Ancestor continued, "In that case, this land of fortune in the Central Continent has long been occupied by you, Dao Ancestor."
"That's right. If you three are sensible and retreat today, and do not invade the Central Continent in the future, I can pretend what just happened never occurred."
Chu Feng spoke while shaking the feather fan in his hand, his expression as if he were granting the Three Ancestors a tremendous favor.
His manner of speaking and tone, to the Three Ancestors, was a naked provocation and disdain.
The Three Ancestors were all rulers of the Hongyuan Continent. Apart from the other two Ancestors, when had they ever been provoked like this? If today they didn't suppress this so-called human Dao Ancestor before them, how could they continue to awe the continent and rule over the myriad clans in the future?
The Dragon Ancestor subconsciously flew to the Qilin Ancestor's side, and the Phoenix Ancestor followed closely. The Qilin Ancestor didn't feel any disgust at this action by the two Ancestors.
In the Qilin Ancestor's view, the two Ancestors had decided to stand on the same side as him. He spoke up: "Phoenix Ancestor, your earlier suggestion was quite good. Today, let us three join forces to seize this land's fortune, then divide the Central Continent into three parts. Dragon Ancestor, what do you say?"
The Dragon Ancestor nodded: "Agreed."
Previously, he would never have agreed to this proposal. If they didn't divide the Central Continent, then in the future, if another Ancestor emerged from the Central Continent, it wouldn't be a good thing for their Dragon clan. Better to divide the Central Continent now—even if they later lost to the other two clans, it wouldn't matter. Their Dragon clan could still rule the seas.
The Three Ancestors' conversation entered Chu Feng's ears word for word. After hearing it, he was amused and smiled, saying: "You three really think highly of yourselves. Before, as long as you three returned to your own continents, I could have spared your lives. Now, not only will I suppress you, but I will also strip away your three clans' fortune and let your three clans decline from here on!"
"What arrogance!"
The Qilin Ancestor shouted angrily: "Dao Ancestor, today I want to see just how capable you are to face us Three Ancestors alone!"
As his words fell, the divine light on his body grew even more dazzling. In an instant, the entire Hongyuan Continent was shrouded by his divine light, and a domain slowly formed.
The Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor also refused to fall behind. The former spat out a golden dragon pearl, and as the dragon pearl appeared, the Dragon Ancestor's domain emerged with it. The latter transformed into a mass of flame like the sun.
When this flame appeared, the sun in the sky vanished, as if fearing the radiance emanating from the Phoenix Ancestor's body. The Phoenix Ancestor's domain appeared before the eyes of the world.
Inverting heaven and earth—was this the might of a Divine King?
A thought flashed through Chu Feng's mind. Then, several rays of immortal light emanated from his body. These rays converged in the sky into a gate of light.
Chu Feng took a step forward. The moment he stepped through the light gate, a startled cry came from the sky.
That sound was like the voice of the Heavenly Dao itself. It seemed that Chu Feng's appearance had even startled the Heavenly Dao.
Boom rumble!
In the sky, lightning flashed and thunder rolled. Heavy rain poured down, and the sun, moon, and stars dimmed.
Yet not a drop of rain touched the bodies of the Four Ancestors in the sky.
At this moment, all the Witch Gods, Demon Gods, Great Witches, and Demon Emperors of the Hongyuan Continent focused their gazes on the sky above the Wendao Sect.
Looking at those four unrivaled existences, a feeling of worship arose in their hearts. Some even silently prayed that these four's battle wouldn't destroy this world.
"Sword, come!"
Chu Feng shouted loudly. Suddenly, a sword cry rang out from within the Wendao Sect. A divine sword flew out from the sect and landed in Chu Feng's hand.
The moment he grasped this sword, his entire aura became even more formidable. This terrifying aura made the hearts of the Three Ancestors tremble.
But the Three Ancestors now had no way to retreat. This was a struggle for supremacy in this great era. Today, the two sides would determine both superiority and life or death.
Chu Feng didn't pay attention to the Three Ancestors. Instead, he turned to look at the disciples and grand-disciples in the sect and said: "Today, I will demonstrate for you how to use the power of the Great Dao in battle. This sword is an epiphany I had today. I call it the Dao Sword. This sword can be a sword technique, or it can be any other technique.
This sword is not about form, but about the Dao. One sword unleashed, and ten thousand Daos are within my grasp."
"You brat, you haven't even comprehended a domain yet you dare to call yourself an Ancestor. You're making me laugh my teeth off!"
The Qilin Ancestor, not seeing Chu Feng's domain for a long time, began to mock him.
"Can this domain of yours that's neither here nor there even be called a domain?"
Chu Feng said nonchalantly. When he was at the Sage Palace, he had seen the ancestor of the Wendao Academy use a domain. By comparison, the Qilin Ancestor's domain was merely built from Great Dao laws. As long as his sword was sharp enough, breaking this domain would be no problem at all.
"Hmph!"
The Dragon Ancestor also snorted coldly: "Brat, you're on death's door and still pretending. Today, let us show you the might of a domain."
The Phoenix Ancestor didn't speak, only silently expanding his domain.
In an instant, the Three Ancestors' domains enveloped toward Chu Feng. The domains spread slowly, but the surrounding time and space were sealed by the domains. Even if Chu Feng wanted to escape, there was nowhere to run.
Chu Feng never fought unprepared battles. He channeled the power of the Great Dao laws within his body, gathering them into the divine sword in his hand, then slashed toward the Three Ancestors' domain.
Clang!
Before that sword even fell, a ten-thousand-foot sword light split heaven and earth. Wherever the sword light passed, all strange phenomena were dispelled. Sunlight from the sky spilled onto the earth through where the sword light had passed, dividing the land.
The Three Ancestors were completely unafraid of that sword. The disdain in their eyes grew even stronger. In their view, although this fellow before them had a terrifying aura, without comprehending a domain, he was just as vulnerable as other Demon Gods and Witch Gods.
The sword fell. The Qilin Ancestor's surrounding domain instantly collapsed. He stood there frozen on the spot, looking at Chu Feng with shocked eyes.
The other two Ancestors also froze in the sky, completely forgetting to continue expanding their domains.
Chu Feng never gave any opponent a chance to catch their breath. After the sword fell, he casually thrust. Just a single understated sword thrust pierced through the Qilin Ancestor's body.
The Qilin Ancestor hadn't yet recovered from shock when he felt his consciousness blurring. The world around him grew darker and darker, yet sunlight was clearly right before his eyes. Why was he feeling this way?
Even more terrifying, he discovered he could no longer control his body, as if something was dissipating.
Soon he realized it was his divine soul and consciousness dissipating. In his final moments, the Qilin Ancestor slowly spoke: "This... this is impossible."
As his words fell, the Qilin Ancestor's massive body fell from the clouds, plummeting rapidly toward the ground. A golden light of fortune flew from his body toward Chu Feng.
After the fortune's golden light entered Chu Feng's body, a system notification sounded in his mind: You have suppressed the Qilin Ancestor and stripped away the Qilin clan's fortune. Dao Flowers increased by 999.
So this is the fortune of an innate being?
Truly extraordinary. If the Three Ancestors had all suffered mutual destruction today and dissipated into the world, this fortune would have fallen among the hundred clans.
But now, this fortune light was all mine!
Chu Feng slowly raised the divine sword in his hand and said indifferently: "Next!"
The Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor hearing this finally came to their senses. They didn't beg for mercy. Instead, they pushed their auras to the peak.
They spoke in unison: "You want to kill us and monopolize this continent? You're simply dreaming. Even if we die, we'll take you with us to the grave."
This scene was familiar to Chu Feng. The Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor's posture meant they intended to self-destruct.
He didn't speak. The sword in his hand swung again, breaking through the two Ancestors' domains. Finally, with one stylish sword flourish, he sheathed the sword in one smooth motion.
The two Ancestors' auras, which had climbed to the peak, instantly ceased. The two Ancestors looked at Chu Feng with shocked eyes, murmuring: "We are unwilling..."
