My brother is so cunning

Chapter 1178 Cultivating Immortality is Not About Fighting and Killing
Seeing that the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning had made up his mind, the immortal had no choice but to grit his teeth and obey.

Guang Chengzi, Huanglong Zhenren, Daoxing Tianzun, and Yuding Zhenren, each wielding a celestial sword, instantly took their positions in the four cardinal directions. Their celestial power surged wildly, and they even burned their life essence to make the celestial swords emit a fierce light that soared into the sky.

Taiyi Zhenren and Qingxu Daode Tianzun threw the array diagram into the sky. The array diagram quickly unfolded in the air, growing to a size of ten thousand feet. Its profound patterns seemed to come alive, resonating with the four immortal swords.

"The Immortal Killing Sword Formation, rise!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable formed hand seals and chanted obscure incantations, channeling the power of the sages, along with the essence and blood of the immortals, into the array and the immortal sword.

In an instant, the color of the world changed!

The lightning that was still striking suddenly stopped, the scorching flames instantly extinguished, and the entangled star power melted away like ice and snow encountering the blazing sun. Each of the four immortal swords shot out a chaotic sword aura, which intertwined in the air to form a net. The array diagram released boundless ferocious energy, enveloping the entire Chan Sect army within it.

As sword energy and baleful energy continued to converge, a huge chaotic domain slowly unfolded around the sword formation. Within the domain, spacetime was distorted, the rules of heaven were rendered ineffective like torn paper, and even light could not propagate normally, leaving only boundless darkness and ferocity.

This is the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!
The innate killing formation appeared, and its oppressive power instantly swept across the three realms—the mortals of the Southern Continent felt a tightness in their hearts and couldn't help but kneel and tremble.

The celestial officials of the Heavenly Court emerged from their palaces, their faces filled with horror as they gazed toward the direction of the Chan Sect's army.

When Wen Rui at the Liberty City Command Center received the monitoring data, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Beyond the realm of chaos, the celestial phenomena underwent a sudden change: the previously cloud-covered sky cracked open with a huge fissure, and within the fissure, there were no sun, moon, or stars, only churning chaotic energy.

The earth trembled violently, and earthquakes and tsunamis triggered by tectonic plate movement ravaged the world.

Even more terrifying is that spiritual energy from all over the three realms is converging towards the sword formation, forming countless visible torrents of spiritual energy, as if the life force of the entire world is about to be devoured by the sword formation—this scene is not a military formation, but clearly a cataclysmic calamity descending upon the world!
"It's blocked! The rules of Heaven are blocked!"

As Huanglong Zhenren felt the suppression around him disappear, he exclaimed in surprise.

Previously, the rule-based attacks launched by the immortals of the Jie Sect using their divine authority were like child's play in the face of the Chaos Domain, unable to even break through the domain's barrier.

Upon seeing this, the distant space mothership immediately launched an attack: the super-heavy battleship-class high-energy cosmic ray star-destroying cannon and the void energy-absorbing engine were at full power, blasting towards the chaotic domain; at the same time, the sun-obscuring sky gathered the true light of the sun, deflecting and focusing all the mirrors, and the light of half the sun converged into a point, turning into golden beams of light thousands of meters thick, like the wrathful whips of the gods, lashing towards the sword formation.

"Hmph, a mere grain of rice dares to rival the sun and moon!"

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly and lightly pointed at the four immortal swords. Instantly, four chaotic sword energies shot out from the chaotic domain. The sword energies were as black as ink, yet they carried the power to tear everything apart.

The first sword energy collided with the blue beam of light from the cosmic ray burst. With a deafening roar, the pure superluminal particle energy was cleaved in two by the sword energy in mid-air. Before the energy wave from the explosion could spread, it was completely swallowed up by the chaotic energy.

The remaining three sword energies simultaneously met the pillar of true solar fire. The golden pillar collided with the black sword energy. There was no earth-shattering roar, only the sight of the pillar being cleaved apart layer by layer by the sword energy—the true solar light, like water being cut open, split to both sides and finally dissipated into the air.

The attack from the space carrier and the sun-blocking canopy unleashed enough energy in an instant to burn the surface of the mortal realm to a white wasteland, yet even the defenses of the Chaos Domain could not be breached!

"Continue forward!" Yuanshi Tianzun commanded, and the Chaos Domain, enveloping the Zhuxian Sword Formation, flew slowly towards Freedom City like a mobile doomsday fortress.

Wherever the domain passed, the ground collapsed and the sky distorted. The drone swarms, mech battle groups, and nano clouds that came to block it were torn apart by the chaotic energy the moment they approached the domain, leaving not even a trace of debris.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, like a moving black hole of destruction, slowly advanced towards Freedom City. Wherever the chaotic domain passed, even the air was sucked away, leaving bottomless ravines in the ground, from which lingering chaotic energy flowed, preventing even wild grass from growing at the edges. Inside the Freedom City command center, the atmosphere was unusually tense.

On the huge holographic screen, the movement trajectory and energy fluctuations of the Zhuxian Sword Formation were displayed in real time—the energy intensity of the Chaos Domain far exceeded expectations, and each streak of sword energy was enough to destroy a small mountain.

Inside the command center, just as the staff officer was about to report on the damage to the defense line, he saw that the God of Creation's gaze had already left the battlefield monitoring screen and landed on another screen displaying data on people's livelihoods.

On the screen, the red dot representing "disaster warning" is spreading at an alarming speed in the area of ​​the Zhuxian Sword Formation—the chaotic energy dissipated when the Zhuxian Sword Formation advanced has affected three mortal towns, and the data on collapsed houses and injured people is constantly being updated.

"Immediately activate the 'Emergency Response Plan for People's Livelihood'!"

Wen Rui's voice was unwavering as his fingers slid rapidly across the control panel: "Dispatch all mech squadrons, abandon the frontline interception, and head to the disaster-stricken town for disaster relief; notify the air rescue team to carry medical nanobots and supplies, and they must arrive on site within ten minutes; in addition, have the evacuation department use city-wide broadcasts and drones to guide the town's residents to move into the interior of Free City, setting up temporary shelters along the way to ensure everyone has food and shelter!"

"But Venerable One, if the frontline mechs are redeployed, the pressure on the defense line will be even greater!"

"The staff officer said urgently."

"Defense lines can be reinforced, but the lives of the people cannot wait!"

Wen Rui said with a righteous expression, "We started this war against the Chan Sect to protect the peace of the Three Realms. What's the point of winning if we can't even protect the people around us? Execute the order!"

The moment the command was given, the mechanical legion immediately entered "disaster relief mode": tens of thousands of martial arts mechs abandoned their confrontation with the Chaos Realm, turned around and flew towards the disaster-stricken town. The mech arms, capable of crushing a Golden Immortal with their bare hands, became rescue tools and quickly cleared the collapsed houses.

The air rescue team's aircraft took off like a flock of geese, and medical nanorobots landed precisely next to the injured people via airdrop pods, quickly beginning treatment.

On the streets, drones hovered, broadcasting evacuation routes. Volunteers held up signs to guide panicked residents into Freedom City in an orderly manner. Staff at temporary shelters had begun distributing food and warm clothing.

Meanwhile, deep within the command center, a supercomputer named "Causality" was operating at high speed.

On the screen, complex formulas for calculating karmic debts based on cause and effect scrolled continuously. The big data model that Wen Rui had spent a great deal of time, effort, and resources building finally came in handy, and the number representing the "Chanjiao Karmic Debt Value" soared at a visible speed—

[Calculation of karmic debts and consequences in progress]

[Event 1: The Zhuxian Sword Formation released chaotic energy, damaging 3 mortal towns, collapsing 1276 houses, injuring 892 civilians, and increasing karmic debt value by 158000]

[Event 2: A geological disaster triggered by the chaotic realm caused crop failure in surrounding farmland, affecting 12000 people and increasing debt value by 320000]

[Event 3: When disciples of the Chan Sect burned their life essence to activate the sword formation, innocent demon beasts were affected, causing three species to be on the verge of extinction. Karmic debt value +85000]

……

[Current total debt value of Chan Sect: 1896000 (Risk threshold: 3000000)]

……
