Chapter 474: Heavenly Stele Shattered, Immortal Path Collapses
The colossal monument, carved entirely from Chaos Immortal Jade, towered into the clouds, standing at the center of the Great Immortal Realm.
Since the day the Immortal Path was born, the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet has existed in the world.
To this day, through the passage of time, the monument's body still flows with intricate and mysterious Immortal Dao Runes, exuding supreme majesty that governs all heavenly immortals, without the slightest diminution, even becoming more profound.
It is not an inanimate object, but rather the embodiment of the Immortal Dao Heavenly Fate True Spirit in the eyes of Immortal Path Cultivators.
Moonlight's gaze penetrated the flowing Immortal Light on the tablet's surface, landing at the very core of the Immortal Tablet.
There, imprinted, were thirteen Innate Blood Patterns, entangled like bloodline networks, emanating an ancient aura.
These thirteen Innate Blood Patterns symbolized the oldest and most noble ancestral bloodlines of the entire Immortal Path.
The Thirteen Clans forged the glory of the Ancient Immortal Path. Before incorporating and nurturing the Immortal Path, they were all Ancestor Realm Gateways.
But now, it is precisely the bloodlines of these Thirteen Clans that, like invisible shackles, firmly locked the ceiling of the Immortal Path.
No matter how high the talent or comprehension of a cultivator, without the bloodline of these Thirteen Clans as a guide, they are like rootless duckweed, forever unable to truly touch the core power of the Immortal Path.
In Moonlight's eyes, not only were these bloodlines shackles, but even the entry stone for stepping onto the Immortal Road, the Innate Immortal Bone that determined the eternal difference between celestial and mortal at birth, should not exist at all.
It stifled countless possibilities, turning the orthodoxy of the Immortal Path into clan factions, long deviating from the original intention of seeking the path of cultivation.
Moonlight slowly raised her hand.
Her movements were slow and steady, her gaze as calm as a frozen cold pond, without anger or excitement, only a serenity and liberation that had seen through everything.
At the moment she raised her hand, the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet seemed to sense a mortal threat. Its body suddenly erupted with dazzling Immortal Light, which instantly connected endless past and future, traversing the time-space Ancient Dao Transmission Road unique to the Immortal Path.
Rumble—
The scene before Moonlight instantly twisted and transformed, an ancient long river phantom paved with endless Space-Time Fragments emerged.
Above the long river, Heaven-Supporting Jade Pillars majestically stood, each pillar manifested a vague shadow exuding a vast aura that pressured all heavens.
These were the immortal projections left by ancients of the Immortal Path in the River of Space-Time, the continuation of their legacies and wills.
At this life-and-death juncture, the Heavenly Destiny True Spirit forcibly invoked the ancient fate of the Immortal Path, summoning the projections of many ancient ancestors, attempting to use the Immortal Path's pressure to block Moonlight's rebellious act.
The River of Space-Time roared, and the gaze of the ancient ancestors' projections, with pressures as solid as substance, crossed time and space, falling simultaneously on Moonlight. The emotions in these gazes varied, with anger, questioning, and even comfort, extremely complex.
Facing the heavy pressure, Moonlight's expression remained unfazed. She did not even glance at those ancient ancestor projections representing the glorious past of the Immortal Path.
Her gaze penetrated the barrier of time and space, landing on the main body of the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet.
"The decayed shackle should have been broken long ago."
Moonlight whispered softly, a pristine and flawless solitary Silver Moon suddenly rose behind her.
This Silver Moon was not an Immortal Path Divine Skill but the embodiment of her life's cultivation foundation, even the manifestation of her Dao Seed, not borrowing a shred of Heavenly Fate.
As the silver radiance fell, it instantly dispelled the brilliant Immortal Light erupting from the Immortal Tablet. The projections of ancient ancestors traversing the River of Space-Time appeared somewhat illusory for a moment.
Buzz—
Before Moonlight made a move, a glaring Immortal Light suddenly surged from the downstream of the river, slicing through before her eyes, tearing apart the projections of numerous Ancestor Immortals as if they were dried weeds and rotten wood.
This glaring Immortal Light, treading on the Ancient Dao Transmission Road of the Immortal Path, traveled from the future straight towards the past.
The aura emitted from within the Immortal Light was so strong that it was terrifying, far exceeding ordinary Ancestor Realm, this was an Immortal, an Immortal at the extreme!
Moonlight's expression was solemn, staring intently at this Immortal Light. She saw the figure within the Immortal Light.
But with her current cultivation, she still couldn't clearly see the person's appearance, only a blur.
Yet she saw the person's left palm holding a Divine Soul.
At the moment of seeing the Divine Soul's face, Moonlight's brow furrowed slightly.
Song Lingqing?
No, Moonlight quickly denied it. Although the face was very similar, there were noticeable differences.
Moonlight was momentarily stunned, then suddenly realized that Chu Zheng likely saw this scene not long ago as well.
But that time, she was directly expelled from the Ancient Dao Transmission Road, whereas now she wasn't.
Why is that?
Moonlight fell into contemplation. Regarding the Divine Soul held in that person's palm, Chu Zheng had never mentioned it before, clearly intentionally concealing it.
This reason wasn't hard to guess, as she almost instantaneously thought of Song Lingxue.
Recalling the deficiency in Song Lingqing's Divine Soul, a conjecture gradually emerged in her mind.
After a long while, Moonlight gathered her thoughts, dispelled various distractions, and after taking one last look at the desolate Ancient Dao Transmission Road, she slowly retreated from the River of Space-Time.
Looking at the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet before her, Moonlight opened her lips and teeth lightly, uttering a word:
"Shatter!"
With the utterance, the Silver Moon that had risen to its peak, carrying its radiant moonlight, silently and quietly, fell fiercely toward the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet symbolizing the root of the Immortal Path, directly targeting the thirteen entangled Innate Blood Patterns!
Time and space seemed to freeze at this moment.
Crack—
A crisp shattering sound resounded to the extreme, echoing across all Myriad Heavens and Realms, shaking the soul origin of all Immortal Path Cultivators!
