Chapter 12713 The Gate of Destiny
Ye Chen felt an immense and boundless dark power rushing towards him. Unable to withstand it, he was immediately blasted away, his flesh and blood ripped apart, blood splattered, and even his bones shattered inch by inch. Su Yunli, who was floating behind him, was also forced to shrink back into his body.
When Yuanzu, Tianwen Zushi, Feng Qingxue and others saw the Black Queen Mother attain enlightenment and severely injure Ye Chen with a single sword strike, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
But the Black Queen Mother's face was gloomy, because she knew that although such power was strong, it was not enough to kill Ye Chen.
As expected, Ye Chen stabilized his body in mid-air, and an ancient celestial book rose from above his head; it was the Starry Sky Dao Book.
After the Black Queen Mother attained enlightenment, the sky turned pitch black, filled with swirling demonic energy.
But in this world of terrifying power, Ye Chen activated the Starry Sky Dao Book and forcefully created a brilliant starry sky.
In the starry sky, Ye Chen once again unleashed the Qian and Kun techniques, creating Qiankun and merging his own aura with the universe.
His injuries healed quickly, and he was full of energy.
The Black Queen Mother saw this and it was within her expectations.
Ye Chen is too powerful. He has too many magical treasures and supernatural abilities. If we cannot destroy Ye Chen's essence, even if we tear him to pieces, he can be perfectly resurrected.
"Black Queen Mother, I have still managed to help you attain enlightenment."
Ye Chen grinned and looked at the Black Queen Mother, his eyes filled with a hint of seriousness.
In the end, the Black Queen Mother was able to advance to the Heavenly Pillar Realm. Fortunately, the power of the Great Dao's blessing was consumed. Ye Chen was not afraid of the Heavenly Pillar Realm alone.
His power is now incredibly strong. Even if he were to fight a Heavenly Pillar Realm expert alone, he could at least put up a fight, if not defeat them.
The Black Queen Mother's face was extremely ugly. She knew that if the fight continued, she would not be able to crush Ye Chen. At most, they would both be injured and die.
"There's nothing more to say. Today, it's either you or me who dies!"
Ye Chen let out a long roar, his heart filled with boundless pride. Even knowing that it would be difficult to defeat someone at the Heavenly Pillar Realm, he was determined to fight.
If his fighting spirit and Dao heart can surpass that of the Black Queen Mother, then there is still a possibility of victory in this decisive battle!
"Then let's go!"
The Black Queen Mother's eyes turned cold. She knew that if her Dao heart showed the slightest hesitation at this moment, she would immediately be defeated and killed.
If she were to fight Ye Chen to the death, the final result would be mutual destruction, with both of them perishing.
We have no choice but to give it our all!
I am the pillar of heaven, what do I have to fear from not being destroyed?
As the Black Queen Mother's thoughts flashed through her mind, she grabbed with her hand, and the dark illusory pillar in the sky resonated with her. The demonic aura of endless abyss darkness gathered around her, rippling out terrifying waves that even made Heavenly Dao Realm experts change color.
boom!
With a wave of her hand, the Black Queen Mother unleashed a torrent of demonic energy that transformed into a jet-black beam of light that fiercely tore through the sky and hurtled toward Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was wielding his sword and slashing forward, a surge of reincarnation energy erupting from the blade.
The cycle of reincarnation through eight heavens buries destiny!
The overwhelming aura of annihilation shattered the dark beam of light shot by the Black Queen Mother. Ye Chen, with unstoppable momentum, instantly arrived in front of the Black Queen Mother.
Black Queen Mother was startled and raised her longsword to parry. In terms of swordsmanship and supernatural techniques, she was no match for Ye Chen, but she had the advantage of being a powerful cultivator at the Heavenly Pillar Realm. In the clash of the two swords, she was not at a disadvantage.
ding ding ding-
A series of rapid sword clashes rang out. Ye Chen's Myriad Laws Entering Reincarnation Technique evolved into a terrifying Chaotic Sword Force, while the Black Queen Mother countered with the power of the Heavenly Pillar Realm and the Abyss Demonic Path.
The two were evenly matched, and the clash of their swords stirred up a terrifying storm that quickly dispelled the remaining chaotic mist in the forbidden area of the Divine Path.
Feng Qingxue, Xiyue, Yuanzu, Tianmu Niangniang, Ling Qingya, Jingliu Immortal Venerable, Tianwen Ancestor, Tingyou Ancestor, and others were all shocked by the clash of such earth-shattering power.
Apart from Ancestor Tianwen and Ancestor Tingyou, everyone present was a member of the Samsara camp.
The Samsara Clan intended to assist Ye Chen, but at this moment, the Black Queen Mother had advanced to the Heavenly Pillar Realm, and her aura was too overwhelming. The Heavenly Pillar Aura was released, forming an absolute domain.
No one could get in; even getting close might result in them being torn to shreds. Helping Ye Chen like Su Yunli had done was now out of the question.
Moreover, the only way to help Ye Chen is through self-sacrifice, which carries extremely high risks.
All the people could do was pray for Ye Chen, releasing their own faith power in hopes of helping him.
As Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother battled, a storm swept through the area, causing the fog over the Forbidden Land of the Divine Path to dissipate, revealing a towering gate in the distance.
The gate, cast in gold, exudes an ancient and simple charm, yet also carries the aura of the laws of destiny. It seems that whoever wields that gate can wield destiny and grasp the most correct path in the world.
"The Gate of Destiny has appeared!"
Upon seeing this, the Heavenly Questioning Ancestor exclaimed with considerable delight, "By controlling the Gate of Destiny, one can grasp the most correct path. I'd like to see what the most correct path in this world truly is!!!"
The struggle between the beginning and the abyss, the path of light, the path of darkness, and the chaos behind it all—which is the true path?
The Heavenly Question Master was eager to know the answer, so he immediately strode out and rushed towards the gate.
When Master Tingyou saw this, his body trembled. The world was facing an apocalyptic disaster, and he had no intention of fighting for supremacy; he only wanted to survive.
But with the threat of the beginning and the abyss, the hope of survival is slim.
He also wanted to see if there was any way to break the deadlock and get out of the predicament, so he quickly flew out as well.
"The Gate of Destiny is a symbol of the path to the gate. If you can grasp it, you can grasp the destiny of heaven! Go quickly, don't let others get there first!"
With a roar, the Primordial Ancestor called out to the Reincarnation Clan and charged out first.
In the sky, Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother, who were engaged in fierce battle, both had their eyes light up when they saw the Gate of Destiny appear.
At this moment, the two clashed and fought each other, exchanging countless blows, but neither could gain the upper hand.
Ye Chen's advantage lies in his powerful divine abilities and magic, while the Black Queen Mother's advantage lies in her high cultivation level. The two are evenly matched, and if they continue fighting, they will only end up exhausted and dying.
Now that they saw the Gate of Destiny appear, both of them thought:
"If one can grasp the mandate of heaven and see the right path, victory will be achieved immediately."
Thinking this, the two stopped fighting at the same time and flew towards the Gate of Destiny.
The Black Queen Mother transformed into a streak of dark demonic light, while Ye Chen transformed into an incomparably magnificent sword light. The two beams of light, like dragons, pierced the sky, arriving first despite being later, and instantly surpassed the Heavenly Question Ancestor who had set off first.
Master Tianwen felt two enormous and powerful auras pressing down from the sky, causing his steps to slow down immediately, and he was almost crushed.
He looked up at the two beams of light, and his lips twitched involuntarily: "These two are really crazy."
He could only watch helplessly as Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother rushed into the Gate of Destiny.
After the two rushed into the Gate of Destiny, the two enormous auras still remained, forming a forbidden zone near the gate, filled with the terrifying aura of the Abyss Demonic Path and the Cycle of Reincarnation Burying Fate.
When the Heavenly Question Ancestor and others arrived, they were unable to get close at all.
Upon seeing this, Master Tingyou sighed, "It seems that destiny is about to fall upon these two."
Ancestor Tianwen's gaze shifted slightly, glancing towards the direction of the Yin-Yang Divine Dao Sect: "After the destiny is decided, what will become of the Yin God? Can the Lord of Reincarnation possibly defeat the Yin God?"
He clearly sensed that as the Black Queen Mother broke through to the Heavenly Pillar Realm, the abyssal aura between heaven and earth became more intense, and the sleeping Yin God also showed signs of stirring.
Once the Yin spirits awaken, it will be the end of the world for those on the other side of the starry sky!
Even if Ye Chen takes control of destiny, it will probably not be easy for him to defeat the shadow in a short period of time.
Is there really a right path that can save the other side of the starry sky?
……
At this moment, Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother both entered the world inside the Gate of Destiny.
Looking out, this world has no mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, sun, moon, or stars. Under your feet is an endless void, and when you step on it, ripples spread out.
Upon closer inspection, one can see countless intricate patterns of laws within the void, and countless paths that rise and then vanish.
This contains the secret of the path to the door.
Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother looked around, concentrating on their comprehension.
Both were so engrossed in enlightenment that they forgot about fighting and killing.
The essence of the path to the gate is quite simple: it is about collecting and deducing.
Collect the existing paths in the world, and then deduce the correct path for the future.
What Ye Chen wanted was the path to defeat the Primordial Chaos.
All good things amplify the power of the beginning, so how can we defeat it?
And then there is the ultimate chaos, with such immense power, how can we defeat it?
What exactly is that law that was obscured by the Primordial Chaos?
What exactly are those four words?
These are all things Ye Chen wants to know.
He had a vague feeling that as long as he could find the path to take over the sect, he would be able to find the answer!
The Black Queen Mother's gaze was also fixed on the laws of the floating and dying void around her. The path she wanted to explore was one of slaughter, destruction, and domination.
She didn't have any grand vows; she just wanted to kill, crush, and eat everything that stood in her way!
Then, she made all living beings grovel at her feet, becoming like cattle and horses, and she was the sole ruler.
Unlike the Primordial Ones and the Abyss, she didn't claim to be saving the world. She didn't have any grand ambitions; she only wanted to kill, to slaughter all enemies.
Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother's intense thoughts caused the entire void world to tremble violently, countless law patterns were annihilated and shattered, and then gathered into light in the distance.
A ray of light appeared from the farthest reaches of the void.
Upon seeing that ray of light, both of their eyes lit up, sensing a strong causal connection.
As long as you grasp that ray of light, you can steer the right path and know the solution to all the world's problems!
call out!
After that ray of light appeared, the two of them sped away at top speed.
"Time and space fall!"
Ye Chen looked at the Black Queen Mother not far away and suddenly activated the Space-Time Technique. A space-time domain unfolded under the Black Queen Mother's feet, intending to trap her.
Unexpectedly, this spatial domain couldn't even hold back the Black Queen Mother for a moment. Without the slightest hesitation, she broke through and sneered:
"You think you can trap me?"
"Abyssal Sea, devour!"
With a flick of her right hand, the Black Queen Mother conjured a deep black sea from the countless folds of spacetime around Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was surrounded by pitch-black abysses on all sides, with nowhere to hide.
These abysses are the very abyss of destruction that once terrified the seventy-two pillar gods. If a pillar god's soul were to fall into them, he would suffer eternal torment.
But even the most terrifying abyss needs to swallow a person to be effective.
scoff!
Ye Chen swung his sword once and annihilated countless abyssal auras, still breaking through the enemy lines without stopping.
The Black Queen Mother snorted. Clearly, Ye Chen couldn't trap her, and she couldn't trap Ye Chen either.
The two stopped their underhanded tactics and flew forward at full speed to chase after that ray of divine light.
Finally, the two flew close and saw the ray of divine light.
That ray of light was gentle, magnificent, containing countless mysteries, and subtly indicating a new path.
Both of them wanted to catch that ray of light, but they both suddenly stopped and stood still.
Because under that ray of light, there was a person standing.
An old man.
Dressed in a gray robe, with a dark gray face, cloudy eyes, and a hunched back, he exuded an aura of old age and death, reminding Ye Chen of the Primordial Chaos Ancestor.
But this old man did not have the morbid distortion of the Primordial Chaos. His turbid eyes carried a sense of detachment, as if he had seen through the illusions of the world.
"You've arrived."
When the old man saw Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother arrive, he smiled slightly and straightened his hunched back a little as he looked at the two of them.
"Let me first introduce myself. I am the master of the Path of the Gate. You can call me the Heavenly Venerable of the Gate, or the Heavenly Law of the Path."
Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother looked at the old man, and their hearts tightened.
Each of the twelve ancient divine paths has a founder. Whether this Gate Celestial Venerable is the founder is still unknown, but he is definitely the current ruler of the Gate's paths.
Both Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother felt an irresistible power emanating from the Heavenly Venerable.
As long as they are within the world of the Gate of Destiny, neither of them can be a match for the Gate Celestial Venerable.
This is his territory!
He represents what is right!
“I know you are looking for the right path, and I can tell you the answer directly.”
The Heavenly Venerable of the Gate narrowed his eyes slightly, his murky voice carrying a faint but powerful authority that suppressed Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother, making both of them feel powerless to resist.
"The correct answer is actually very simple: death."
The Heavenly Venerable said calmly, looking at the two of them, “The most correct path is to end your own life.”
He uttered the most astonishing words in the calmest tone.
Ye Chen and the Black Queen Mother were both taken aback upon hearing this.
As if he had seen through the causes and effects of all lifetimes, the Heavenly Venerable of the Gate continued:
"The progenitor of chaos is not someone to be trifled with."
"Let alone the ultimate chaos, even the primordial Yang God and the Yin God of the abyss would find it difficult to defeat."
"The clash between the Primordial Chaos and the Abyss turned the Outer Heavens into a purgatory, where gods and all living beings were plunged into suffering. Now that Chaos has been revived, there will be even more painful places in the future."
"Therefore, before that supreme chaos breaks out and before the starry sky becomes a purgatory, the most correct course of action is to end one's own life immediately. Death is the greatest relief and the most perfect slumber."
"You should know, those seventy-two pillar gods back then were begging for death but couldn't, hehe..."
