Chapter 738: Birth of a Tribulation

“If Primordial Devil Venerable really wants to join hands with me, then use actions to show that if the Great Dao Devil Race dares to contend against the Great Dao. Once you do, the Immortal Dao and the Great Dao Devil Race will belong to the same boat.”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded, but it was still indifferent.
After Taiyuan Primordial Demon heard this, it was not angry. Instead, it relaxed.
The Dao Ancestor’s reputation was too resounding. Even it had been frightened before. He had destroyed the Eternal Race and repelled Common People Heavens. In any case, it had never heard of a second person with such achievements in its life.
He was here to tell the Dao Ancestor their attitude.
They were afraid that the Dao Ancestor would suddenly fall, and they were also worried that he would create an impossible situation. In any case, it would not hurt to inform him in advance.
“Dao Ancestor, the Great Dao Devil Race will take action soon to prove our attitude. I shall take my leave first.”
Taiyuan Primordial Demon respectfully said. After oit finished speaking, it waited for a while, and after not receiving a reply from the Dao Ancestor, it quickly left.
Jiang Changsheng looked in the direction it left and became even more curious about the Primordial Devil Venerable.
He could actually command a Dao Intent Lord to serve him!
The strength value of the Taiyuan Primordial Demon was 12.5 billion Heavenly Dao incense points. As for the Primordial Devil Venerable, he was involved in the origin of the Great Dao, so he could not calculate his strength value for the time being.
As expected of Luo Dao, just the portion of their force he took away was already so powerful.
From the looks of it, Luo Dao was much stronger than Common People Heavens.
It also made sense. After all, Luo Dao did not come, but Common People Heavens did. This meant that in the opinion of the Great Dao Divine Court, Common People Heavens was weaker and easier to control.
For a long time, Jiang Changsheng had regarded Luo Dao as his imaginary enemy. He would never forget that Luo Dao wanted to destroy the Immortal Dao. If he had the chance, he would definitely take revenge on Luo Dao.
Now that Luo Dao had split up and lost at least two Dao Intent Lords, Jiang Changsheng was naturally happy.
Next, it would depend on what the Great Dao Devil Race would do.
Jiang Changsheng retracted his gaze and continued to observe the Immortal Dao.
In the face of the Jiang Clan’s anger, the War Sect fell into a passive state. In a huge war, the War Sect nearly disbanded and Ye Zhan was suppressed by the joint efforts of the mighty figures of the Jiang Clan. Even though he had grasped the power of the Great Dao, he was still only a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. Furthermore, there was more than one Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal in the Jiang Clan, and there were more than 200 Zenith Heaven cultivators. How could he defeat them?
Jiang Yi alone was enough to restrain Ye Zhan!
When Ye Zhan was disheartened, the group of mysterious experts who rescued him from the Heavenly Court appeared. They were all existences that had grasped the power of the Great Dao. Under the guidance of the Great Dao, they all assisted the War Sect. After repelling the Jiang Clan, they chose to fight the Jiang Clan.
This war had caused heavy casualties to the Jiang Clan and their vitality had been greatly damaged. It would be hard for them to start such a war again for at least ten thousand years.
After that, the War Sect attacked everywhere and defeated nearly a hundred sects in ten thousand years. They became a force that all Zenith Heaven Sects had no choice but to pay attention to and fear.
The War Sect’s successes made more and more immortal cultivators feel that they could end the calamity. As a result, the War Sect continued to grow.
Time flew by like a shuttle and the stars shifted. Ten thousand years was like a day that passed in the blink of an eye.
Eighty thousand years later.
One day.
Eight Trigrams Palace.
Kunlun Dao, Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor, Di Jue, Shi Yan, Sovereign Jing Jue, and Immortal Saint Wu Ji had gathered here.
Divine Lord Aurora narrowed his eyes and said, “The War Sect should be a force supported by the power of the Great Dao. Their strength has already surpassed the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect.”
Di Jue nodded and said, “I’ve fought against the War Sect. Their seven Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals possess different powers of the Great Dao. In terms of the number of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, the War Sect is undoubtedly the top. What’s more, Ye Zhan has the power of Hell behind him.”
The others spoke one after another.
“Zenith Heaven cultivators can comprehend the Great Dao. How can we differentiate them from those who have gone astray?”
“Even if the War Sect is really a pawn of the Great Dao, what should we do? Eradicate the War Sect? All these years, disciples of all the major sects have joined. If we really want to eradicate the entire War Sect, I’m afraid the Immortal Dao…”
“You have too many worries. Unless the Immortal Saint takes action, we no longer have the ability to suppress the War Sect.”
“Junior Brother Wu Ji, what do you say?”
Their gaze landed on Immortal Saint Wu Ji.
Immortal Saint Wu Ji frowned and said, “The War Sect is indeed powerful, but as the Immortal Saint, I cannot act recklessly. The current karma of the War Sect stems from their grudges with various sects. They did not harm the common people. It can even be said that they are the only sect that did not implicate the people at the bottom. Ever since the calamity started, the disciples of every sect have acted recklessly.”
Sovereign Jing Jue raised his eyebrows and said, “That’s impossible. The War Sect is filled with both good and bad people. How can there be no reckless people?”
Immortal Saint Wu Ji answered, “The Great Dao of War that Ye Zhan has grasped can be used to contact every member of the sect with his will and restrain them. If they are discovered to have attacked a mortal, Ye Zhan will personally kill them. Not only can he absorb their battle intent to strengthen himself, but he can also accumulate merit.”
As a Heavenly Dao Immortal Saint, he naturally saw more things than other Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals.
Hearing this, they were silent.
After a long time.
Divine Lord Aurora broke the silence and said, “Do you think Ye Zhan is kind or evil?”
Kunlun Dao said, “Everyone has a dark side. A person’s heart does not matter when they speak with their actions.”
“If he did this on purpose because he was afraid that the Heavenly Dao Immortal Saint and Teacher would attack him, what would happen?” Shi Yan asked.
Sovereign Jing Jue said, “The calamity should not be judged by merit. We have to think from the perspective of the Heavenly Dao. Since we know that the Great Dao has ulterior motives, we have to eliminate all potential threats.”
Even though he did not kill the innocent, he did not care about the common people. This did not conform to his concept.
The orthodoxy was in a crisis of going extinct, so why should they care about those useless people at the bottom?
Without waiting for anyone to refute, Sovereign Jing Jue said in a deep voice, “We can’t hesitate any longer. The strength of the War Sect has reached a level that cannot be ignored. If we wait any longer, we won’t be able to end the calamity. We can’t possibly wait for Teacher to take action, right?”
“Everyone, let’s not be polite. Don’t tell me you don’t have any thoughts about the calamity? Our duty is to ensure that the Immortal Dao can safely survive the calamity, not to completely eradicate the power of the Great Dao. If we want to truly eradicate the power of the Great Dao, it’s not enough to just rely on the Immortal Dao. In that case, let’s eradicate the power of the Great Dao as soon as we find them and then chase after merit to help us reach the Immortal Saint Realm as soon as possible. Only then can we better face the will of the Great Dao.”
Sovereign Jing Jue had had enough. Ever since the calamity began, there had been no less than ten conversations like this. They always planned a strategy, but he felt that it was useless.
Furthermore, he knew some of his senior brothers’ hidden actions. They seemed to be outside the calamity, but they were actually deeply involved in it.
Di Jue nodded and said, “Indeed, it’s time to take action. The karma of heaven and earth is so heavy that we can no longer sit here.”
The Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor said, “Amitabha. We really shouldn’t consider the overall situation of the Heavenly Dao, because we are already in a calamity. We just need to do our best.”
Kunlun Dao, Divine Lord Ji Luan, Shi Yan and Immortal Saint Wu Ji were silent.
Sovereign Jing Jue stood up and said, “Senior Brothers, I’ll take action first and meet the War Sect. They claim that if a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal dared to trespass the battlefield, they will never return. I don’t believe it!”
As soon as his voice fell, he disappeared into thin air.
Kunlun Dao sighed and said, “That’s right. It’s time for us to enter the calamity. At this point in the calamity, it should be the fight between Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals.”
The rest looked at each other and exchanged glances.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Bai Qi walked to Jiang Changsheng and bowed. “Master, your disciples have begun to enter the calamity. Does that mean it’s time to settle the differences in the Great Dao?”
At that moment, heaven and earth rumbled and a huge pressure caused the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm to tremble.
Sovereign Jing Jue was currently fighting alone.
A thousand years ago, the Dark Emperor, Jiang Yi, joined the War Sect, making it the most powerful Zenith Heaven Sect. When no one in the entire Immortal Dao dared to provoke them, Sovereign Jing Jue took action.
The War Sect established a battlefield in the northern region of the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm and turned the karma there into a domain. No beings could enter and all laws were withered. It had already become the most terrifying forbidden land in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm.
Jiang Changsheng admired those different Great Daos. They were indeed powerful. Even without Ye Zhan and Jiang Yi taking action, Sovereign Jing Jue had been obstructed. It had to be known that Sovereign Jing Jue possessed invincible strength among Eternal Gods. After becoming a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, he could even rival a Supreme Eternal.
“Yes, it’s about to end.”
Jiang Changsheng answered softly. He could sense that the luck of the Heavenly Dao was changing drastically.
Sovereign Jing Jue trespassing the battlefield alone would push the calamity to the peak.
Soon, the entire Immortal Dao would start an unprecedented war with the battlefield as the center. This war would give birth to the child of the calamity and launch a final confrontation with Ye Zhan. No matter who won, it would end the calamity. However, if Ye Zhan won, all the merit of the Heavenly Dao would belong to him. Then the Great Dao might threaten the Heavenly Dao, which was something Jiang Changsheng would not allow.
Therefore, Ye Zhan was destined to lose!
His choice of the power of the Great Dao had doomed this outcome. If he did not choose the power of the Great Dao, then he could rely on himself to fight for the Heaven’s Will.
Jiang Changsheng was curious about who would become the next child of the calamity.
Sovereign Jing Jue?
Time Sequence Immortal Lord?
Or perhaps it was a prodigy of the Jiang Clan?
Bai Qi carefully asked, “The number of Zenith Heaven cultivators in the War Sect has reached 20% of the Immortal Dao. If too many immortal cultivators join them, will Sovereign Jing Jue fall?”
She had walked through the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, so she was well aware of the power of the War Sect. The Immortal Dao had never had such a powerful force since ancient times.
Even when the Dao Sect and the Heavenly Court were at their peaks, they did not have such a status.
Today, the War Sect had gathered all the powerful experts from various forces. Even Hell was supporting them and had cut off their connection with the Heavenly Court.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “No, it’s not only him.”
He had already calculated the cause and effect. Sovereign Jing Jue would be outnumbered and suffer a tragic defeat. At that time, Kunlun Dao and the others would not be able to sit still and would go to rescue Sovereign Jing Jue. After an arduous battle, they would also fail. At that time, the luck of Ye Zhan and the War Sect would reach its peak and the karma of heaven and earth would return to the battlefield. After that, another child of calamity would be born.
Jiang Changsheng had many old friends who would go to participate in the final war. Even Ping’an, Huang Chuan, Jiang Jian, and the others would enter the battlefield. This was also due to the influence of the Heavenly Dao.
Unfortunately, the child of the calamity could only be born from a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. Ping’an and the others were not qualified to fight for this opportunity.
“Master, if the War Sect is defeated, will the power of the Great Dao withdraw from the Immortal Dao?” Bai Qi asked curiously.
Jiang Changsheng curled his lips and said, “That’s right, but this karma will not end here.”
“Why?”
“Because I will find trouble with them.”
