Perfect World

Chapter 1823 - Death of Heaven’s Mandate

An age without cultivation was starting to descend!

As the two ‘heavens’ linked up together, an indescribable blade hacked through everyone, causing many cultivators to cry out, their bodies couldn’t help but tremble. It was as if they lost something.

What was this? Many people raised their heads towards the sky, but then, they looked at their own hands, touching their flesh. What exactly did they lose? They couldn’t say for sure, but they just felt like there were some things that were now far from them.

“Death of heaven’s mandate!”

The little dog said, its small face dark, expression terrifyingly grave. The small fangs of its mouth were bared, shining and sparkling. It was incredibly serious as it stared towards the sky.

“What does that mean?” Cao Yusheng was confused, starting to ask.

“The backlash of the world has begun, the heaven’s mandate that has been bestowed upon all life has been reaped, cut through. It was just like I said before, everyone’s lifespans would quickly decline. Soon, when the Nine Heavens Ten Earths completely become one, some creatures would directly die from great age!” The little dog said.

That day, all those who were cultivators sensed something, just that most of them didn’t know what happened, not knowing what they lost.

Immortal Domain’s people, their higher levels naturally knew what happened. Their expressions were all serious, discussing amongst themselves. Now, more and more people were insisting on withdrawing.

“The backlash is extremely terrifying. Once it touches upon the most critical moment, if my Immortal Domain’s gates aren’t shut, it will definitely become affected. The consequences of this aren’t something anyone can bear!” An elder said.

“Go, we must immediately withdraw. There is no way of fighting the creatures of darkness anymore. I believe the higher levels are also going to withdraw, who dares stay here when the world is undergoing such great changes?” A middle-aged commander ordered, also partial towards staying far away from this place.

In the various parts of the great continent, half of it was occupied by darkness. Today, their mysterious leaders were also gathering together, discussing things, sure enough also showing signs of withdrawing their troops.

The rebound of the world, the arrival of an age without cultivation, this affected too much.

“I can feel it, a portion of my lifespan has been severed. I need to head into the source of darkness to recover. This truly is frightening!”

Some people spoke quietly, faint voices sounding from the darkness. It was extremely cold, and also extremely callous, not much emotional fluctuations involved.

Similarly, among Immortal Domain’s cultivators, there were some who frowned, even individuals as powerful as them being affected.

“We need to be nourished by immortal dao, only then can it be compensated!” An elder said with a light sigh.

They sensed that the situation today was even more severe than they had imagined. They knew that the world was drying up, entering an age without cultivation, but they didn’t think it would be as frightening as today.

What left them the most shocked was that as the world underwent intense changes, there was this sudden blade that hacked down on them, intangible, but it was brought down on all creatures!

This was the mandate of heaven, it couldn’t be seen, yet it still truly existed, bestowed by the universe. Now, part of it had been reaped, or perhaps all of it was!

Shi Hao sat there. He was also silently examining his body’s situation, not feeling any emotions. He calmed his mind, examining all of the changes that were taking place in his body.

The blade of the world wasn’t something he could change. As a member of this heaven and earth, he couldn’t escape it.

“Should we find a way to enter Immortal Domain?” Cao Yusheng said. They couldn’t remain in this place anymore, encountering the worst age.

“Yes, we were indeed unlucky, coming here in the worst age. What is the most terrifying isn’t the ultimate result, but rather this process, it will be difficult to escape being cut down.” The little dog was also analyzing and examining everything, coming to this type of conclusion.

This was even more terrifying than an age without cultivation. When one personally experienced this type of transformation, what they had to endure was even more severe, even more terrifying.

“Immortal Domain is indeed a place where we can take shelter, but I will not go!” The little dog was extremely direct. Right now, that place was equivalent to a tiger’s den, a dragon’s pool.

It had offended too many people. Forget about others, just that so-called human pet -- Hong Family’s old ancestor was already someone it couldn’t handle. Once he discovered it, he would definitely want to skin it alive.

There was no need for doubt. At the true immortal domain, those people already had heaven reaching methods, not something the little dog could deal with anymore.

“Just how many bad things did you do?” Even Shi Hao couldn’t help but ask. Could it be that it didn’t even have a few friends?

“Sigh, all my friends are in this realm. I never swindle associates, friends, or relatives, so I could only cause trouble in Immortal Domain. In the end, all my friends on this side were killed, falling in Immortal Ancient’s last phase, there is already nothing to hope for.” The little dog sighed.

“Your clan doesn’t have anyone else, or dao companions, something like that?” Cao Yusheng mocked it.

“I rose up from an uncultivated land, achieved unmatched results from an ordinary flesh body, reigning sovereign with Immortal Kings, coexisting with the world, these are things my clansmen could not attain. Dao companion… when I was in Immortal Domain, back then, there was one who caught my eye, but we had a falling out, unable to seize her. Instead, she wanted to take me as a war pet, and thus, even fought with Without End Immortal King. If I appear now, if she were to find out…” When the little dog spoke up to here, it shrunk its neck, not daring to saying any more.

Cao Yusheng stared blankly for a long time, and only afterwards did he say, “You really are a dog threatening based on its master’s power! You couldn’t forcefully seize that ordinary woman, suffering retribution.”

“Bark! Do you even know how to speak properly?!” The little dog bared its fangs, barking out, throwing itself over. Even though it was only the size of a palm, it directly pressed itself onto Cao Yusheng, stepping on his face, baring its fangs.

“Am I not speaking the truth?”

“Truth my ass! That’s a heavenly talent, immortal domain’s exceptional expert, is that some ordinary woman? I was challenging authority, not submitting to force!” The little dog said self-righteously.

In the Nine Heavens above, it wasn’t calm at all. All of the clans were panicking. An age without cultivation was coming, who wouldn’t be shocked?

Right now, even long life families were running, withdrawing, wishing to enter Immortal Domain and escape this disaster. This was not a place they could stay in.

In order to achieve this, they didn’t hesitate to pay any price, trying their best to curry favor with some great powers in Immortal Domain.

For example, there were some long life inheritances that married their sect’s holy ladies to the young disciples of a true immortal family, no longer tending to their clans’ past requirements of their holy ladies to be incorruptible, cannot be married off to anyone.

At the same time, their requirements of the true immortal clan’s young disciple wasn’t that high either, it’s fine even if they weren’t of the direct line of descent, fine as long as they could enter Immortal Domain through this sect.

Shi Hao’s first target was Jin Family. After wandering about this place for two or three days, he already understood some circumstances.

Jin Family was currently trying to get close to the original family in Immortal Domain, but the results were far from reassuring. Previously, there were some clues, but recently, the connection was broken again.

Now, they had hopes of using the clan’s ancient scriptures as the primer, use this to exchange for some benefits from Immortal Domain.

Apart from this, they also tried to contact the creatures of darkness, making preparations all around.

“Jin Taijun, that old thing has come out!”

Shi Hao had long restrained his aura. A streak of light flashed past his eyes.

After a few days, he finally sensed that Jin Taijun was moving, about to leave Jin Clan.

Previously, he had still thought that she would have left long ago, but in the end, he found that she still remained in the clan.

Fortunately, they didn’t act rashly, not barging straight in, or else if Jin Taijun personally operated the clan’s exceptional formations, there might be great danger.

A carriage rushed out from Jin Family, moving slowly, carrying wisps of chaotic energy. It was extremely hazy and indistinct. Nine Luan Birds pulled the carriage, their appearances like phoenixes, incredibly divine and heroic.

The carriage was cast from bronze gold, carrying a feeling of passed history, great changes. This was a powerful precious emperor’s carriage that had experienced archaic great battles!

Apart from this, the nine Luan Birds were also extremely strong, their feathers carrying metallic radiance, powerful, chilly, and intimidating.

When a supreme being set out, there would be a great display of extravagance!

One could see that even cultivators of the Self Release Realm were trembling in fear, not even individuals as powerful as them could handle the pressure of a supreme being, kneeling down.

As for the others, there was even less of a need to talk about them, all of them laying weak on the ground.

These were the people seeing her off, their expressions incomparably serious, respectfully sending Jin Taijun’s carriage into the distance.

Shi Hao was in awe. There were no weak members among supreme beings after all, all of them people who crawled through a sea of blood, a mountain of corpses, ultimately achieving the dao. They were all outstanding figures among men, the very best since the archaic times.

“Will we be able to break through their formations?” Shi Hao asked the little dog.

“It is a bit tricky, this formation carries immortal dao aura. Even though it isn’t complete, much of my primordial spirit has scattered, now only retaining a portion of my past memories. If we forcefully try to break through the formation, the dangers are extremely great.” The little dog replied.

This was their previous plan, to charge in once the supreme being left, completely loot their divine medicine garden.

However now, there was trouble. Jin Family’s formation was more formidable than they had anticipated!

Shi Hao’s eyes erupted with divine radiance. “If we can’t, then we’ll just charge straight in. I’ll intercept Jin Taijun, drag her back here!”

This clan, Feng Clan, and others have all come into contact with the creatures of darkness, this was what Shi Hao secretly learned, so he didn’t feel any guilt in doing this.

“We can give it a try!” The little dog actually agreed, having other bad intentions.
