Chapter 1103 - 500: Slowly Spreading Five Fingers!

Chapter 500

Dao Sheng laughed, with a kind of defiance and madness that went deep into his bones.

"The Fire cannot, why should you?!"

He suddenly lifted his head, no longer looking at that crack, but instead, he focused his gaze on the "Blood-crying Ancient Wall" beneath his feet, drenched in endless desolation!

"My Dao is not meant to attack you."

"My Dao is meant to prove—that I, and we, once existed!"

He did not release any form of energy impact, but instead performed an action that all Guardians could not understand.

He extended his right hand, with fingers like a sword, and slowly carved a character upon the indestructible embankment barrier imprinted with eternal Dao marks.

A character that is the simplest and most primordial.

"Life."

This character was not carved with mana, but written with his unique "Path of Guardian"!

When the first stroke of the "Life" character fell, the golden Divine Light of order seeped into the ancient wall like flowing water. That light, as if tracing time, redefined this embankment from a cold "dead object" into a "living Guardian"!

On the ancient wall, those fist prints, sword marks, Dao patterns belonging to ancient supreme beings that had long dimmed, in this moment, as if awakened heroic souls, let out resonating echoes that transcended eras!

A vague titan phantom appeared on the barrier, letting out an unyielding roar.

The branding of a Divine Sword that had cleaved through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands once again exuded a resilient Sword Intent that bends for nothing.

Pieces of mysterious Array Map began to circulate weak brilliance again, as if deducing the endless Technique against the void.

These were the last obsessions left by heroes who had fallen here! They had long been erased by the Power of Ruins, yet etched their unyielding will onto this embankment!

And the Power of Order in Dao Sheng "defines" this unyielding spirit, turning it from a vague "history" into a clear "reality"!

When the final stroke of "Life" was completed, the gray Chaos surged in.

If order "defines the past," then chaos is "creating the future"!

That gray light did not repair the heroes’ obsessions, but instead used their obsessions as "seed," breeding billions of "possibilities of guardian" within the embankment!

Possibly, that titan learned new Divine Techniques.

Possibly, that Divine Sword comprehended stronger Sword Dao.

Possibly, those Array Maps deduced entirely new changes.

At this moment, Dao Sheng was not mending the embankment.

He was "resurrecting" this embankment!

With his own "Dao," he bore the "will" of eternal heroic spirits, giving this cold "Blood-crying Ancient Wall" a "Heart of the Guardian"!

Buzz—!

The entire seventy-two hundred segment of the embankment began trembling violently. The dark red wall emitted an intertwining gray-gold Divine Light from inside, full of the life pulse!

The Power of Ruins that permeated out from the crack was, for the first time, genuinely "blocked" upon touching this layer of Divine Light!

No longer silently dissolving, but issuing sizzling sounds akin to metal being corroded by strong acid!

The "nothingness" of the ruins, for the first time, encountered a "being" it couldn’t easily negate!

Because this "being" is no longer a single entity, but rather a collective of all guardians’ will on this embankment through endless ages!

"This...is..." The Thunder Lord widened his eyes, disbelief written in his ancient immutable lightning eyes, "He...he’s ’enlivening’ the embankment with his own Dao?! Triggering the ’Heroic Spirit Wall’?!"

"No, it’s not just enlivening." The female guardian’s voice carried unprecedented astonishment for the first time, "He is ’anchoring’ all the deceased’s ’existence’ with his own ’existence’! He’s turning himself into a living monument!"

The Fire wanted him to be a "patch," but he chose instead to turn himself into the "heart" of this embankment!

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The crack of the ruins that was temporarily blocked seemed completely infuriated.

The deep darkness within started violently writhing, contracting.

Following that, a "hand" emerged slowly from within the crack.

It was not a real hand.

It had no flesh, no bones, not even a physical entity. It was composed of "void." Its outline was shown because it "erased" surrounding light and Law, thus reflecting it as a hand "shape."

At the moment this "hand of void" appeared, a terror a thousand times more horrifying than before, "the great void feeling," "the great Nirvana feeling," enveloped the entire area.

As if the end of the cosmos and the terminus of time had been prematurely brought before everyone by this hand.

"The Power of Ruins has manifested!" The Thunder Lord shouted out of control, his voice filled with unparalleled fear and despair, "Retreat quickly! It’s the ’Hand of Ruins’! The embodiment of ’concept elimination’! Unbeatable!"

He and the several other guardians burst into dazzling Divine Light, frantically retreating as though avoiding the world’s most terrifying predator. They defended here against the "tide" of the ruins, and its scattered "breath."

And this hand is an extension of the "Power of Ruins" will itself! It is one of its "body"!

This is fundamentally a battle of different proportions!

However, Dao Sheng did not retreat.

He stood there quietly, black hair violently tossing, clothes flapping. His golden left eye and gray right eye simultaneously mirrored the "hand of void" slowly extending.
