Chapter 1199

The taunts of the calamities echoed from all directions:

"Heh, do you really think we've all gathered here just for a single pillar of heaven?"

"Yes, yes, to deduce the Heavenly Pillar, only one elder brother is needed, and the subsequent arrangements are quite meaningful."

"Zhou Daqian, if you have the guts, you can kill us all in one move to stop Uncle Zai's next move."

The pillar of heaven above the clouds was being gripped and shaken by the God of Disaster's twelve fingers, and the cracks were expanding wildly.

With a thud, large stones fell like meteors, sending up clouds of dust. The intense heat generated by their rapid friction with the air ignited the dry grass and forests, causing fires to erupt everywhere.

That pillar piercing the sky has stood firm and unmoved from beginning to end.

Even though there are rebel groups everywhere in southern Xinjiang, their existence remains unshaken, unaffected by rain, wind, frost, snow, or drifting clouds.

What is a pillar of heaven? The answer is a pillar that supports the sky, whose foundation cannot be shaken and which has stood for millions of years.

But under the actions of the God of Disaster, the eternally unyielding pillar of heaven first shook, then trembled violently, and looked on the verge of collapse.

The Calamity Lord is the eldest of seven elder brothers, with six others slightly weaker than him. In addition, there are many more Calamity Demons distributed around the Heavenly Pillar, eyeing and confronting each other.

Just as they said, to stop the Calamity Lord, all the Calamity Demons must be wiped out before they can break through the encirclement and reach the Heavenly Pillar. "..."

Let out a sigh of relief. This was a conspiracy that the Enchantress had planned long ago, and there was no way to break it.

Only a martial saint could overcome these calamities and interrupt the calamity, but then again, if a martial saint were truly alive, why would there be a pillar of heaven to suppress the celestial maiden?
How cruel is reality?

He looked at Ao Donglai and said, "Junior brother, we're all going to die today anyway, so say no more!"

"We are incompetent and have failed our teacher's trust, so let's not shirk our responsibilities."

Ao Donglai's eyes trembled, then he nodded, "That's right, the Southern Frontier is under our protection."

After saying this, he clasped his hands in apology to Zhou You's back and said, "Zhou Daqian, please step aside. I need to perform a blood sacrifice with my senior brother at the Heavenly Pillar."

The two brothers, having made up their minds to sacrifice themselves, used their own blood and qi to self-destruct, destroying everything in their path, to clear out the demons present.

The elder brothers saw through their thoughts and smiled without saying a word. Even if their blood and qi were to explode, they believed that the power would be minimal.

The pillar of heaven has broken today; it's a done deal, and no one can change it!

A gust of wind blew by, and a cloud of yellow sand and dust drifted by.

Zhou You suddenly spoke up, “When the moon sets, the sun rises; this world is no ordinary world, we shall wait until tomorrow.”

"The Jade Rabbit sinks, the Golden Crow blazes, and I alone play the grand melody of the universe throughout eternity."

As he spoke, he revealed the steel blade in his palm, and the two bursts of energy from Yin Dao and Lord Shen's fist surged forth.

A series of resonances arose, and the celestial pillar seemed to sense the appearance of the Half-Saint Yin Blade, humming and trembling as if drawn together by magnetic forces.

The celestial aura emanating from the cracks grew increasingly intense, infecting all directions and creating a unique domain.

The demonic calamity that was once completely eradicated is now showing signs of stirring again.

However, once the steel knife was drawn, this omen was immediately suppressed.

"You bunch of chickens and dogs, open your eyes wide and watch carefully, I'll only strike once." Zhou You's eyes swept over all the demons present, locating his target, each face imprinted with either resentment or mockery. He raised the Half-Saint Yin Blade and swung it downwards...

The accountant, the big-headed monster, and the snake-man, along with their elder brothers, exchanged glances. "Zhou Daqian, you are so arrogant, so I will make you die because of your arrogance!"

Hehehe?
Does he really think he's a martial saint, daring to boast that he only needs one strike? He's just a 'half-saint' on the ladder to heaven. They've all killed and tasted him; he's nothing new to them.

So the six elder brothers scattered and approached Zhou You from all sides, snatching his knife, binding him, and gouging out his heart...

With six top-tier Calamity Demons joining forces, they could instantly kill any demigod.

The Disaster God focused intently on shaking the pillar, watching as most of the pillar cracked open. Through the fist-width crack, he could vaguely see celestial flowers swirling inside, accompanied by a strange fragrance.

The celestial maiden's silhouette is faintly visible, appearing and disappearing in a flash upon closer inspection, yet she is indeed omnipresent.

One more burst of power is all it takes to completely break the Heavenly Pillar and release the Heavenly Maiden.

The Calamity Lord had followed the Enchantress the longest and knew the power of the Heavenly Maiden well. Although the legend was exaggerated, the Heavenly Maiden had nothing to do with the celestial being who brought the Nine Cauldrons in the legend.

However, the Heavenly Maiden is from the era of the First Martial Saint, her qualifications predate those of the Enchantress, and her strength is unfathomable.

Yin Dao and Lord Shen, two newly promoted semi-saints, were suppressing the Heavenly Maiden who had just escaped her confinement, but things are different now.

The celestial maiden suppressed under the Heavenly Pillar is different from the one suppressed by the Nine Cauldrons. Once she is born, she will surely sweep across the world.

“Uncle Disaster, remember this well: humans are the weakest, but also possess the greatest potential.”

"In ancient times, countless powerful beings fed on humans, but now, the human race rules the world."

"For all disasters and calamities are like anvils, furnaces, and whetstones for the human race. Every crisis that brings them to the brink of extinction has the potential to unleash the potential of the human race as a whole."

"In ancient times, demons ran rampant, and the human population plummeted to an unprecedented low. The Primordial Martial Saint emerged and swept away the demons."

"When I descended to the mortal world, I thought I could transform it into a paradise for all things, but instead, a new generation of martial saints has emerged, each generation upgrading and iterating, cracking the core secrets of my all things."

"If this continues, it will be a catastrophe, so I'm going to play it safe and fake my death to retire!"

"Remember this: the human race may not seem strong, but when it comes to a matter of life and death, their strength will turn around. The only way to deal with them is to make them fight amongst themselves, weaken them, and cause them to decline..."

Uncle Zai still remembered the question he raised when he heard the Queen of Enchantress say this: "Then why deduce the Heavenly Pillar and release the Heavenly Maiden?" According to the Queen of Enchantress's theory, once the Heavenly Maiden is released, the human race will be slaughtered to the point of near extinction. Wouldn't that cause another upheaval and bring back the martial saint that the human race had lost for so long?

The Queen's reaction was etched into her memory like a brand. She smiled alluringly, "That's exactly what I wanted."

As for the purpose, the Queen of Enchantress did not say, and the conversation ended there.

The Calamity Lord took a deep breath. The Enchantress was the goddess of all their enchanted creatures, and all orders given by her were to be carried out unconditionally.

Before setting off, Zai Bo, as the eldest brother, ate several demonic creatures that expressed doubt, which intimidated him on the spot.

In his mind, no one could stop the Queen of Enchantresses from carrying out her will—not even the demons, and certainly not the human race.

Zhou Daqian is just a mere cultivator from the Heavenly Sect who has ascended the Heavenly Ladder. No matter how strong he is or how skilled his swordsmanship is, so what?
The Disaster God stared intently at the pillar in front of him, not turning his head, waiting to deduce the pillar before paying any attention to him.

Before that, Zhou Daqian was left to be dealt with by other evil spirits, and the remaining six elder brothers could work together to ensure that nothing went wrong.

That's what he thought, but the actual developments clearly exceeded his expectations...
