Chapter 1298 (First Ending), Sacred Beasts’ Escape

Proofreader: Papatonks

Rumble~

Everything was shaking, with the huge pillars of light acting as weapons as they broke the heavens.

In the Mirror Moon Cottage, the Heavenly Sovereign was meditating in peace when he shook awake.

Sword Heart asked, “What is it?”

“The mortal domain is stirring. This is bad!”

“The mortal domain?”

Sword Heart asked, “Are those three beasts itching? A pity the five sacred weapons are in the Sacred Domain or I would’ve gone back to set them straight.”

The Heavenly Sovereign shook his head, “It’s not them. They’d never act without knowing my true situation. Just like before, an array has been activated.”

“Someone’s coming to Sacred Domain again?”

“No!” Heavenly Sovereign smiled in disdain, “Zhuo Fan must’ve done something. He didn’t trust those beasts when he came to Sacred Domain. So now he knows the truth and needs support. For that, he will get the help of those beasts.”

Sword Heart nodded, “Should I stop them? The ruination of the mortal domain means destroying the source of your power.”

“No, with the emotion path with me, the bewitching doesn’t need the mortal domain’s power to be suppressed. I need to absorb the emotion path to get rid of it. The mortal domain has outlived its use, and…”

The Heavenly Sovereign’s eyes shone, “By going to the mortal domain, those three beasts will notice I’m in trouble and will come killing. What matters is that I absorb the paths and can’t be disturbed. Just watch over me. They won’t stir up any trouble anytime soon.”

Sword Heart nodded and bowed.

The Heavenly Sovereign closed his eyes again…

Boom~

As the shaking grew stronger, black cracks spread across the sky.

Shangguan Qingyan was shaking in worry, “What kind of array did Zhuo Fan tell you to activate? Why does it look different from the one he used? It’s hundreds of times stronger! The world is about to be destroyed!”

“I don’t know either. The Palace Lord only told me how to activate it!”

Wu Randong was clueless, but determined, “Don’t worry, Palace Lord won’t harm us. Once the array finishes, we can just look for him.”

Shangguan Qingyan nodded. Despite the huge changes, they still went with it because they trusted Zhuo Fan. He always did something for a reason.

The three sacred beasts noticed the sudden changes.

In the Allbeast Mountain Range, Kunpeng looked at the eight pillars of light, “He met Heavenly Sovereign and all the suspicion he had on us was removed, needing our help. After years of planning, we’re about to act. It all comes down who the final winner is, ha-ha-ha…”

“Spiritual beasts of Allbeast Mountain Range, I, Vaulting Kunpeng, am leaving to fight for the world’s survival!” Kunpeng spread his arms and roared.

The s.h.i.+vering spiritual beasts lowered their heads before him…

In the Ultimate Clarity Sect, Decimating Dragon Ancestor looked excited as well.

[Is the mortal domain finally breaking?]

But then he recalled Zhuo Fan’s last trick and slumped back, “Humph, getting thrilled for nothing. Those humans are nothing but ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, caring only about themselves and leaving me here in misery. I won’t fall for it a second time and get disappointed. Maybe I should raise another human to activate this array completely? But after all these years, not one human I found is useful.”

Zhuo Fan read him like a book and told Wu Qingqiu to make this place forbidden. He would not see even a ghost waltzing about.

When he took Ye Lin, he at least had a choice, but that was now gone as well.

If he’d known, he’d have slapped Zhuo Fan to death.

[I’m here using all I have to help you and you’re burying me instead? What gives? Is this a game to you?]

Zhuo Fan wasn’t to blame though, since they weren’t kin. He needed to know the savage beasts’ intentions first. What would he do if the beast would’ve run amok the minute they got out?

In the North Sea, Heaven Sealing Sea Ao sent huge waves as he came out to look at the sky.

Sea Ao’s lone eye blinked, sneering, “Another human wants to go to Sacred Domain? The kid had to go either way, or he’d be just waiting for the big guys to come take his life. As for the others, they must be bored to death. The Sacred Domain has many powers, you’re a lord here, but an ant up there. Ha-ha-ha, so go and die to your heart’s content.’

Sea Ao sunk back beneath the icy waters.

Boom!

The heavens s.h.i.+fted as the eight pillars grew stronger with the array grandmasters s.h.i.+fting their gestures. The other seven World Wind Tunnels turned into seven meteors and converged on Thunder Pavilion.

The power of the pillars united and the pillar from the Thunder Pavilion exploded in size and power. The heavens couldn’t take the pressure and broke apart, revealing a large pitch-black abyss, with cracks extending in all directions as pieces crumbled.

All of the heavens were peeled away like an egg.

The pillar kept expanding, forcing Shangguan Qingyan’s group back. The pillar grew so fast it enveloped them and the sky boomed once more.

Once everything settled, the people looked up in shock. The sky was now all black, an abyss without survival.

“W-what have we done? The sky is gone!” Shangguan Qingyan gapped.

Wu Randong was just as shocked.

“Why is it like this? Just what was that array of the Palace Lord… look there!

“T-the sky is back!”

They all looked to see the sky healing and become its usual blue self.

Sea Ao was dumbstruck, with his lone eye flas.h.i.+ng in immense joy, “The mortal domain barrier is gone at last. The Heavenly Sovereign’s realm is broken. I can see the real sky, the Sacred Domain’s, ha-ha-ha…”

With a boom, Sea Ao slapped with his claws and shot into the sky, breaking the North Sea’s barrier and reaching. His huge body s.h.i.+fted and became a pudgy old man, flying around like a child.

“The recoil array broke the Heavenly Sovereign’s barrier and made a s.p.a.ce tunnel. But due to the world’s laws, it will heal. Once it does, the mortal domain and Sacred Domain will be one. This place is no longer the mortal domain, ha-ha-ha…”

Vaulting Kunpeng shot up as well.

Decimating Dragon Ancestor was stumped then exploded in joy as he turned into a golden fiery dragon that circled the area before withdrawing all the flames to turn into a middle-aged man in golden robes, “I’m out at last. Rotten brat, I’ll get you for toying with me, mark my words! Humph!”

Whoosh~

Dragon ancestor vanished.

The three sacred beasts were freed from their prison, now looking for Zhuo Fan.

The people of the mortal domain were baffled by the changed sky, but then they noticed the thick spiritual energy flooding everywhere.

They sucked in without qualms and their Yuan Qi soared to new heights.

“W-what’s happening? I’m advancing!”

“So am I!”

“Me too.”

…

With the broken barrier, the people of the mortal domain grew excited tasting the thick spiritual energy of the Sacred Domain.

In just a few moments, all of the mortal domain’s cultivators advanced again and again.

The fresh Radiant Stage cultivators of yesterday were now in the Ethereal Stage, making it feel like it was all a dream.

They didn’t realize that this was what they should’ve had, for they had been restricted for ages…
