The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2056: Wei Zhen Is Frightened

After Ma Yi Ancestor, Du Ya Ancestor, as well as Yihua Palace Master, Juefeng Mountain Master and Valley Master Qi Ying and the other Title Controllers publicly expressed their willingness to follow Jing Yan’s commands, the structure of the Endless Chaos was also about to undergo tremendous changes.

Chaos would no longer be divided mainly into the Four Ultimate Forces and the Five Great Chaotic Kingdoms; these branches would merge into one, twisting into a single rope.

When everyone addressed him as Dao Master, Jing Yan initially refused. Dao Master, Lord of All Paths—even at Jing Yan’s current level, he was still far from that realm.

The present Jing Yan had only mastered the Destruction Dao, the Void Path, the Fate Dao, and eight other Daos related to the Five Elements Attribute that he comprehended when creating the Chaos Sword.

Mastering these Daos was by no means equivalent to becoming the master of the Great Dao. To master them only meant he could basically wield the Tao Power and had a very thorough understanding of those Daos. There was still a huge step to cross before he could stand above the Great Dao.

In fact, Jing Yan and the others didn’t know whether the Dao Master behind that apostle truly stood above the Great Dao, but the title ”Dao Master” itself carried a heavy weight.

Since all the Title Controllers present agreed to address Jing Yan as Lord Taoist, Jing Yan didn’t waste more time on the matter of titles. However they wanted to call him, let them call him that!

After the seven Title Controllers reached a consensus, the next step was naturally to spread the news.

The Kings of the Five Great Chaotic Kingdoms all came one after another to the Hongjun Heavenly Palace to meet Jing Yan. The five Kings who were close to the level of Title Controller had no objection to honoring Jing Yan as their lord. Especially Chenyuan Emperor, who clapped his hands in approval. Chenyuan Emperor had originally been willing to pay any price to help Jing Yan, so of course he wouldn’t find it difficult to obey Jing Yan’s orders.

Since the Four Ultimate Forces and the Five Great Chaotic Kingdoms had all entered this framework, the matters that followed naturally had a channel through which they could be accomplished. Whether it was the larger Chaos Countries or the medium and small Chaos Countries, people all came one after another to the Ultimate Land to have audience with Jing Yan.

Meanwhile, Ma Yi Ancestor and the other Title Controllers were not idle either. Through numerous channels, they contacted the other Title Controllers In Chaos and explained this matter to them.

Some of these Title Controllers responded saying they would consider it, while others made no response at all.

Countless Chaos Creatures gradually received the relevant news as well. The vast majority of Chaos Creatures were happy that Chaos had a true leader to lead them in sweeping away the Devouring Sky Clan.

After that battle at the Eastern Domain Main Hall, Jing Yan’s reputation In Chaos had indeed risen sharply, especially after he distributed the resources obtained from the two Devouring Sky Clan Fortresses to the Chaos Creatures who participated in the war. This established an extremely tall image for Jing Yan.

If Jing Yan had been a very selfish person and pocketed all the resources in those two fortresses, then even if he had saved the Eastern Domain Main Hall, he absolutely wouldn’t have the prestige he had now.

Whether powerful Cultivators or ordinary people, the vast majority of them, whether in simple or complex relationships, always first looked to their own interests.

The Devouring Sky Clan threatened everyone’s interests, so almost everyone wanted to slay the Devouring Sky Clan. By the same token, if Jing Yan had put all the resources into his own pocket, then it would have been very difficult to get others to obey his orders. Even if he could temporarily suppress them by sheer strength, it would be hard for these people to truly follow him from the heart.

At this moment, at a certain place on the edge of Chaos, Title Controller Wei Zhen’s expression was blank.

He had just received the news that Yin Mountain Ancestor was dead!

The incomparably powerful Title Controller, Yin Mountain Ancestor, had actually been killed by Jing Yan.

Wei Zhen’s information had become somewhat blocked. From the time Yin Mountain Ancestor was cut down by Jing Yan to when he received the relevant news, quite a long time had actually passed. This was mainly because he almost had no contact with other Chaos Creatures.

Ever since he was severely wounded by Jing Yan outside the Hongjun Heavenly Palace and fled, he had been hiding on the edge of Chaos. Later he encountered Yin Mountain Ancestor and began flattering Yin Mountain Ancestor, hoping to find a chance to take revenge and wipe out his humiliation. Wei Zhen also feared that Jing Yan would hunt him down, so he didn’t contact any other Chaos Creatures at all, not even the friends he’d been very close to before. Otherwise, with his status, it would be impossible for him to learn only now that Yin Mountain Ancestor had already died.

”How is this possible!”

”This... damn it, why is this Jing Yan so strong? Do I... do I still have any chance to take revenge?” Wei Zhen thought dispiritedly.

He already knew that Yin Mountain Ancestor had been killed by a single sword strike from Jing Yan. Moreover, Jing Yan had, all by himself, broken through two Devouring Sky Clan Fortresses.

Just hearing that was terrifying.

Even Yin Mountain Ancestor couldn’t withstand a single sword strike from Jing Yan, so he, Wei Zhen, was even less likely to withstand it.

”No, I have to leave. Mm, I must leave this place. Otherwise, once Jing Yan finds me, one sword will be enough to kill me!” Wei Zhen muttered.

When Yin Mountain Ancestor went to the Eastern Domain Main Hall, he had ordered Wei Zhen to stay here and continue collecting Chaos Spirit Milk. But now that Yin Mountain Ancestor was already dead, naturally Wei Zhen no longer needed to care about Yin Mountain Ancestor’s instructions.

He stood up and continued flying toward the farther edge.

At the same time, at another place on the edge of Chaos.

The Dao Master whose whole body was shrouded in a black robe, and the apostle who had fought Jing Yan, were standing there.

The apostle was reporting in detail the battle situation at the Eastern Domain Main Hall.

He also reported together the matter that Ma Yi Ancestor and the other Title Controllers were willing to follow Jing Yan’s orders.

The Dao Master’s expression was hideous, and a cold killing intent flashed in his eyes. Around his body, ripples layered outward. He was raising his aura, and as his aura grew stronger, the Supreme Rule of this Chaos began to suppress him.

He had now entered this Chaos, so once his strength reached a certain degree, the Supreme Rule would begin to restrict him.

That apostle’s own strength was originally extremely great as well, but within this Chaos, he could only exert Combat Power on the level of Ma Yi Ancestor and the others. Perhaps he was somewhat stronger than Ma Yi Ancestor and the rest, but he definitely could not reach the point of crushing Ma Yi Ancestor and the other Title Controllers.

If this Dao Master were to go all out within this Chaos, his Combat Power would of course be even more terrifying. However, compared to his true strength, the gap would be enormous. The reason he had always let apostles and the Devouring Sky Clan disrupt Chaos was precisely because he feared falling in this Chaos.

If he were Beyond Chaos, then the Title Controllers of this Chaos would pose no threat to him at all. A casual lift of his hand could annihilate a Title Controller. But here, suppressed by the Supreme Rule, he had a real possibility of falling. Having Cultivation at his level, how could he easily take risks? Back when he killed Ancient Tree Elder, he had plotted for a long time, and only after ensuring nothing could go wrong did he make a move on Ancient Tree Elder.

”Dao Master?”

”Why? Hmph, he also deserves to be called Dao Master? Damn it! Truly damnable!” The ripples around the Dao Master’s body fluctuated violently, as if simply because Jing Yan was being called Dao Master he was incomparably enraged.
