Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 577 The Mysteries Above the Sacrificial Path

"It's you! This is Xia's true form!"

The Primordial Chaos went nearly mad. As his reconstructed body bled continuously, countless universes dimmed, becoming nourishment for him.

"Of course it's me."

Xia Sheng snorted coldly, raised his sword and slashed, causing the Primordial Ancestor's blood to splatter, forcing the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos to retreat continuously, with flesh and blood flying everywhere, his heart filled with extreme fear.

It must be admitted that this newcomer was even more terrifying, decapitating itself in a single encounter, and it sensed the enormous gap between the two.

"Go together!"

"Let's join forces and kill them!"

Even when the Red-haired Ancestor and the Purple Ancestor arrived, the three strongest sequence ancestors joined forces and only then were they able to barely stop Xia Sheng's advance.

This means that Liu Shen shared the burden of one of the progenitors.

"As for me, I'm all here to die!"

As for the Desolate Emperor, he was equally terrifying. He first took action to block the Black Blood Ancestor who was fighting against the Willow God, and then simultaneously stopped the remaining two Ancestors.

Three, three, three, one – the battlefield was quickly divided into four major battlefields.

puff!puff!puff!
As expected of Emperor Xia, he was the first to break the deadlock when facing the attack of the three progenitors. His sword light swept across the land, which was too amazing. The past, present and future were blurred under this sword light. Blood and flesh flew everywhere and the three progenitors were sent flying one after another.

How can it be so powerful?

The Primordial Chaos Ancestor stared wide-eyed, speaking with some disbelief. Compared to several eras ago, Xia's methods were undoubtedly far more ruthless.

"He hasn't been promoted yet; his supernatural powers have simply become purer."

Beside him, the purple progenitor spoke, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

Several eras have passed, and Xia's magical power has undoubtedly increased a lot, but it is still within a certain threshold and has never been surpassed. What is terrifying is his methods of attack. After years of accumulation, he has gathered countless terrifying trump cards.

Beside them, the two progenitors nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it doesn't exceed the sacrificial path, it proves there's still a chance to win.

"Bring the disc!"

"Here comes the sword!"

However, with Xia Sheng's soft exclamation, the Creation Emperor Disc shot from afar, the Immortal Tribulation Killing Sword stood upright in front of him, the two terrifying forces of life and death reflected each other, the chaotic energy erupted, and countless terrifying phenomena appeared, engulfing all the heavens and myriad worlds.

"He was born to govern the entire universe, encompassing all its changes, and thus became king."

At this moment, even the entire universe was trembling violently, countless mountains and rivers were shining, countless universes were resonating, and the energy of birth and death was being nurtured, gathering like branches and quickly entering Xia Sheng's body.

His magical power suddenly surged again in a rapid manner.

The cycle of birth and death, the changes of the heavens.

By drawing upon the power of all things in the mortal world to break the deadlock and thereby step onto the path of sacrifice, this is Xia Sheng's attempt.

"No, stop him!"

Instantly, the three progenitors showed surprise and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.

Summer's energy is rising steadily, even approaching that "threshold," which is terrifying, considering that there has only ever been one person on the sacrificial path in history.

That is the master of the plateau.

At this moment, even the other seven progenitors changed color, wanting to interfere with Xia Sheng's breakthrough, but unfortunately they were all blocked by their respective opponents and could not get close.

Rumble!
However, as the three progenitors engaged in their extreme slaughter, the entire battlefield became terrifying and horrifying. Blood splattered into the sky, obliterating various evolutionary systems. Countless fragments of bone shattered, exploding into countless universes and intelligent civilizations.

This caused everyone in the heavens to gasp in astonishment.

Although they didn't know exactly what had happened, they could guess from the actions of the progenitor that the Emperor was about to do something important.

"Charge onto the sacrificial path!"

As for the Immortal Emperor and the three remaining paths on the plateau, they all looked at him with disdain. As expected of the invincible emperor who had cleansed up all ages, he actually wanted to seize the creation of the universe for his own use, internalize the universe, and break through the sacrificial domain in one fell swoop.

"Good tactics, good spirit, but you are destined to fail!"

The red-haired ancestor spoke, and at that moment he suddenly retreated along with the other two ancestors. Boom!

Then, as they approached the other seven progenitors, the ten progenitors merged once more, transforming into a primitive man wielding a spiked club. A terrifying killing light descended, shattering everything, even blurring Xia Sheng's figure at that moment.

Instantly, the expressions of Araha and the other two turned ugly.

The Ten Ancestors Unite as One is the most terrifying forbidden technique. Last time, it took three people working together to withstand it, but now Xia Sheng alone is likely to be in big trouble.

Clang clang clang!
However, when the two arrived with Liu Shen, something surprising happened.

As the sacrificial blood flowed, illuminating the heavens, Xia Sheng actually caught the spiked club with his bare hands. As the crystal blood dripped down, strange changes occurred in large swathes of the void.

Countless universes are born in an instant, countless civilizations are conceived and perish in the blink of an eye, and new evolutionary systems are emerging, accumulating at a geometric rate.
The emperors of the heavens felt as if their brains were about to explode. The runes there were far too complex. Even just a glance, or even just a glimpse, would make their primordial spirits unstable.

"This is terrifying! We're really close to taking that step!"

At this moment, the ten ancestors spoke at the same time, their eerie and terrifying voices filled with unease. With his strength alone, Xia had blocked the combined attack of the ten ancestors. At this moment, Xia was almost ready to fully step onto the path of sacrifice.

Of course, it was only close, not completely inside.

Otherwise, the Tenth Patriarch would have disintegrated in an instant, how could he be a match for him?

"Fight him!"

The Tenth Patriarch spoke, raised his spiked club, and smashed it wildly.

"Now that things have come to this, do you think you can still stop me?"

Xia Sheng spoke, his words resounding. With the blessing of the Heavenly Annihilation Qi of the Zhou Dynasty, he was in a divine state, surpassing the Dao of Sacrifice, but not belonging to the Dao of Sacrifice.

Although he cannot compare to the master of the plateau, he is still on par with the ten patriarchs united.

Of course, he knew that this state could not be maintained for long, so he had to cut the Gordian knot quickly.

But don't forget, there are also Huang Yeliu and two others nearby.

Rumble!
Finally, with the help of the three great priests, a terrible clash took place. The ten ancestors were sent flying, their figures scattered once again, and each was targeted by their respective opponents, dividing the battlefield into four parts.

At the same time, Xia Sheng collapsed from his previous state.

puff!
However, as the sword light swept across, he still managed to kill the red-haired ancestor at the last moment of his fall, shattering the crimson coffin reflected in the starry sky behind him, thus sacrificing him forever.

"This is what is meant by the sacrificial path."

At this moment, Xia Sheng suddenly said something.

Although he had emerged from that strange state, the experience he gained was invaluable. Many of his previous deductions were confirmed, and he was certain that he had found a way to break through the barriers above the sacrificial path.

"Gentlemen, let's begin! Fight the enemy with all our might!"

He glanced at Huang Ye and the other person, and with just one look, they understood everything.

Only by sacrificing everything, even one's true self, can one reach the highest level of sacrificial practice.

As for what that field actually represents, and in what form it will appear, no one can say for sure; one can only understand it once they actually enter it.

"Hahaha, let's have a good fight today!"

Knowing it was the final battle, Shi Hao displayed remarkable composure. He glanced deeply at his eldest son before striding towards the three great priests to wage his final battle.

"I am the Heavenly Emperor, and I shall suppress all enemies in the world!"

Ye Fan also turned around and saw Yi Shui, Qing Xian, and even Yao Yao in the crowd. After smiling, he resolutely charged towards the three progenitors.

At this moment, the remaining nine progenitors were all filled with immense fear.

What exactly happened that made these people all act so recklessly?

"Is it a mystery beyond the ritual path?"

One of the ancestors sighed softly, giving Xia Sheng a deep look, but dared not try.

The Ten Ancestors did not have the courage and spirit to burn everything, including their own ego.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken refuge in this desolate land.
