At this time, on the continent, the only one who could completely kill the evil forces was Su Changqing.
If Su Changqing’s divine consciousness were to dissipate, then the hope of the continent would be completely buried!
And just as everyone hurried toward the Confucian Dao platform.
A cold voice rose from the heart of darkness.
"Suppress!"
The Chaos Pearl shone brilliantly, emitting a purple-gold light, slowly hovering above Su Changqing’s head.
A vast and terrifying energy instantly enveloped this realm!
A shocking scene appeared.
The numerous secret techniques that covered the sky were momentarily frozen in the void.
Those divine techniques struggled to unfold in the void, but seemed to be locked endlessly in chains.
Su Changqing raised his head, his eyes cold.
He slowly reached out and clenched his fist fiercely in the void.
"Shatter!"
Crack!
A breathtaking scene appeared.
Within a hundred-foot radius of Su Changqing, the space fractured like a mirror, then exploded with a roar.
At this moment, everything within this hundred-foot space, whether living beings or secret arts alike,
was instantly annihilated with the collapse of space.
As they gazed at the suddenly empty Dao platform, silence reigned over heaven and earth.
Countless people widened their eyes, looking in shock at the torn space.
Just a hand, and the space shattered!
"Is this... the Divine Spirit Realm?"
Even the most illustrious couldn’t believe it.
Zhao Shanke, Kashyapa, Xuan Yan, Ximen Xiu...
These powerful figures were worldly and knowledgeable.
Yet even they were stunned by the scene before them.
The Divine Spirit Realm shattering space with one hand?
This was a frightening power only Saints could wield.
But now... it appeared on a Divine Spirit Realm cultivator!
This unbelievable scene made everyone fall silent.
Even the proud Golden Crow Sacred Feather, the benevolent reincarnated powerhouses,
and the peerless geniuses like Zhao Batian and Mingzi appeared dumbfounded.
They could understand Su Changqing’s previous might.
But now... as unmatched geniuses themselves, they couldn’t fathom Su Changqing’s methods.
It was a power that surpassed them by more than just one level.
"Clap clap clap."
Amidst the silence, a loud clapping sound suddenly rang out.
Atop the dark Dao platform, Amir looked at Su Changqing in admiration and said:
"Space power? Truly enviable means."
"Even among the remnants of the Ten Thousand Races beyond the domain, it’s rare to find a genius like you."
He paused, looking at Su Changqing with a half-smile,
"But unfortunately, no matter how strong you are, you can’t resolve the continent’s crisis."
"With your power alone, how many sects can you save? One or two?"
Everyone present glanced at the state of the continent’s Dao platforms, and their expressions changed color.
Confucian, Sword, Pill, and Demon — these four were the weakest, and the situation was already precarious.
But the most critical crisis lay in the Martial and Demon platforms!
Cultivators were numerous on the continent, and martial cultivators almost accounted for half.
The Demon Race, needless to say, absorbed the essence of sun and moon to form a path of their own.
These two platforms were the most prosperous on the continent, with the most beings practicing cultivation.
The goal of the Dark Forbidden Area targeting these two platforms was simple.
As long as they could seize these two, it meant crippling seventy percent of the continent’s cultivators.
Just as Amir said.
Su Changqing was indeed strong, but ultimately could not be everywhere at once.
He traversed the Confucian, Sword, and Pill platforms, shielding three sects by himself, a tremendous and powerful effort.
But if this continued, the continent might preserve these three platforms, but the overall trend would still result in defeat.
Seeing the silent cultivators of the continent, Amir’s smile widened.
Even he, having returned from beyond the domain, was astonished by Su Changqing’s methods.
If it were usual times, the burning fire of jealousy would have already consumed him.
But now...
Amir glanced excitedly at the dark Dao platform above,
"Swallowing the dark Dao platform condensed from one-third of Cangyan Continent’s fortune."
"What unparalleled opportunities will the Demon God and Heavenly Dao leave at the pinnacle of this platform?"
"Can I perhaps glimpse the top thirty inheritances of the three thousand Demon Gods?"
Thinking of those fearsome Demon Gods ranked highly, the intensity of Amir’s eyes burned even more brightly.
...
The dark faction already had victory securely in their grasp.
The loss of the Confucian, Sword, and Pill platforms did not weigh heavily on the beings in the forbidden zone.
Most of their forces were concentrated on the Demon and Martial platforms.
The remaining people are enough to hold back Su Changqing, waiting for the great momentum to unify and stop the attack.
At this moment, all the cultivators in the world looked at Su Changqing with anxious expressions.
The number of demon race geniuses exceeds that of the human race, and they can be delayed for a while.
But the human race martial arts can’t hold on much longer.
Once martial arts are occupied by the demons, half of the world’s cultivators will be abandoned by the great momentum.
That would be an unbearable burden.
However, once Su Changqing leaves the range of the Confucian, Sword, and Dan Dao platforms, it means that the Dark Forbidden Area could be invaded at any moment.
That is equivalent to abandoning one’s own path to save others.
No one can influence Su Changqing’s choice; how to proceed depends solely on his will.
"What are you waiting for! Hurry up and save martial arts!"
Standing atop the sky, Zhao Shanke couldn’t hold back and shouted angrily at Su Changqing.
Once these words were spoken, many powerful figures frowned.
Especially the Sword Cultivator, Confucian Cultivator, and others, all looked at him with displeased expressions.
"Humph!"
Xuan Yan snorted coldly, "Weren’t you just saying Su Changqing is a demon?"
"So why are you now asking him to save your martial arts?"
Zhao Shanke responded coldly, "I only have the big picture in mind, not for myself."
Xuan Yan only sneered mockingly, not saying anything more.
At this moment, below.
Zhao Batian watched as the demons got closer to the peak, panic rising within him.
He considered himself highly, unwilling to be abandoned by the great momentum and miss the chance to vie for the throne in the future.
Although he knew it was not appropriate to speak at this time, he couldn’t help but shout:
"Su Changqing, what are you waiting for? Come help me!"
"Do you want to be condemned by everyone under heaven?"
Nearby, Chu Xi, Ye Xiaoyi, Ling Si, and others, though knowing that aiding martial arts is the best choice for the continent now,
still couldn’t help but snort coldly at Zhao Batian’s words,
"Shameless!"
Zhao Batian was indifferent, just staring fixedly at Su Changqing.
The other Dao platform geniuses also looked yearningly at Su Changqing.
They all understood well that with Su Changqing’s terrifying prowess, choosing which side to stand on would greatly increase the chance of saving that path.
Aiding martial arts is indeed the great righteousness.
But people are selfish; who really wants to sacrifice themselves for others?
At this moment, all beings on the continent waited, waiting for Su Changqing to make that difficult choice.
"Is it really a matter of choosing?"
Su Changqing stood quietly with his sword, his gaze sweeping across the nine Dao platforms on the continent.
The demons’ sinister laughter, the cultivators’ angry shouts, the eyes filled with hope and longing...
Every Dao platform was in a life-and-death crisis.
If he left for martial arts, it would mean abandoning the other paths.
And those demons, surely wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
He had confidence in preserving martial arts, but the other paths, he couldn’t divide himself, and could only watch their demise.
At that time, even if only martial arts were preserved, but the other paths were all lost, what would be the meaning?
"Hoo..."
Su Changqing took a deep breath, his gaze abruptly turned to the largest of the Dao platforms, the Dark Dao platform!
"Actually... there is another way."
Su Changqing murmured softly, holding the nearly completely darkened divine sword.
In everyone’s incredulous eyes, he approached the front of the Dark Dao platform!
In his memory, there was indeed a way to break the crisis, called... encircle Wei to rescue Zhao!
"He... intends to storm the Dark Dao platform!"
Exclamations arose one after another.
Su Changqing’s choice exceeded everyone’s expectations.
He did not choose any Dao platform on the continent, but chose... to counterattack!
"Hehe."
At the peak of the Dark Dao platform, Amir shook his head and smiled:
"Don’t waste your effort, this Dark Dao platform is crafted by the Heavenly Dao for my Dark Forbidden Area."
"Only those who flow demon blood and embrace darkness can step foot."
As soon as he finished speaking, sneers from Forbidden Area geniuses rung out around.
At the same time, Zhao Batian was furious with failed anger.
But then, Su Changqing slowly raised his head, looking at the dark peak, murmuring to himself,
"I too once embraced darkness."
"But my darkness... is different from yours!"
As soon as the words fell, Su Changqing released all restraints on the power of destruction.
Boom!
In just an instant, Su Changqing’s long hair danced in the wind, turning silver-white from the roots.
A black mark, like a waning moon, slowly emerged between his eyebrows.
Immense darkness light, accompanied by endless destruction power, soared into the sky!
His aura instantly chilling as an abyss, his eyes clear and dissipated, Su Changqing, indifferent and merciless, took slow steps onto the Dark Dao platform!
And this scene!
The world burst into an uproar!
