Chapter 2151: 907, swallowing a Golden Core into my stomach, my fate is controlled by me, not by heaven.
 

“Buzz—”

Before the Heavenly Roaring Sect’s powerhouse’s palm even touched the three-foot-long sword implanted in the ground, the sword had already started vibrating.

The white-bearded elder’s expression changed, his hand unable to press down any further.

He infused his body with the power of qi and blood, adding three times the strength, yet he found he still couldn’t advance an inch.

At that moment, a hint of fear appeared on his face.

This sword was stronger than he had anticipated.

On the other side, another white-bearded elder’s palm had reached above Han Muye’s head.

At this moment, his palm couldn’t advance further either.

Above the illusory Dao Fruit of Han Muye, layers of nebulous golden light were fending off his palm.

To everyone present, both Heavenly Roaring Sect powerhouses seemed to be moving slowly forward, as if blocked by an immense force.

“Power of the Great Dao?” Wu Tangyue furrowed his brows.

The power of the Great Dao was the greatest force cultivated in the Dao Realm, no matter whether it was Seeking the Dao, Entering the Dao, Breaking the Dao, or Dao Extinguishing; the contest was always about the power of the Great Dao.

The strength and magnitude of the power of the Great Dao represented the level of cultivation abilities.

The realm of Seeking the Dao and Entering the Dao were naturally far inferior to Breaking the Dao and Dao Extinguishing.

Yet at this moment, Han Muye, who had just formed his Dao Fruit and was at the initial stage of the Realm of Seeking Dao, should have been no match before a peak of the path-entry realm.

But now, the scene was quite the opposite.

Two peaks of path-entry, stalled before someone who had just achieved his Dao Fruit in the realm of Seeking Dao.

“This is impossible…”

A Dao Breaking Realm elder from the Heavenly Roaring Sect stood stupefied, murmuring to himself.

How could there be a Seeking Dao that could suppress the peak of the path-entry realm?

“He’s not in the Seeking Dao realm!” Wu Tangyue shouted lowly, his expression undergoing a drastic change.

“In this world, there are those who have comprehended the Great Dao early yet have not gathered Dao Fruit, may step into the Dao, break through in three steps, and control the Dao even without reaching the Dao Extinguishing!”

His eyes sparked with brilliance as he stared at Han Muye and spoke solemnly, “Such a powerhouse is known as a Dao Controller!”

Dao Controller!

From gathering Dao Fruit to entering and breaking the Dao was but a moment, without Dao Extinguishing abilities, yet no less than Dao Extinguishing combat strength.

Such individuals were naturally the favored ones of the Great Dao.

Han Muye, who had his eyes slightly closed until now, suddenly opened them wide.

His eyes seemed to flicker with innumerable stars, gathering endless divine light.

Above his head, the Dao Fruit was layered with Dao intent that solidified and eventually transformed into a radiant Golden Core.

The Golden Core infused his body and settled into his dantian.

“A Golden Core swallowed into my belly, my life is controlled by me, not by fate; such is the course of cultivation in this world.”

Han Muye whispered, his expression carrying a trace of emotion.

He had experienced defying fate and controlling his own fortune countless times.

Every increase in power was a comprehension of a new level of life.

Even if his cultivation on the Great Pantheon Plane was at a very low level, it was still a gain.

With the Golden Core in his belly, the Great Dao was within him.

Imbued with the uninterrupted power of heaven and earth of the Great Pantheon Plane, the complete origin power was within his control.

From this moment on, Han Muye could also be considered a cultivator of the Great Pantheon Plane, no longer subject to the rejection of the power of heaven and earth.

Han Muye raised his hand, and the sword on the ground flew into his palm.

With a swing of the sword edge, the bodies of the two white-bearded elders were instantly cut into four pieces!

At the peak of the path-entry, slain with a single strike!

Under a single stroke, the dispersing origin of the two path-entry realm bodies dyed the area within thirty feet in golden-red.

“You dare murder!” The Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Roaring Sect, Wu Tangyue, had flames of infinite rage in his eyes.

Zhao Chengliang, standing by his side, had already taken a step forward, his palm striking out, transforming into myriads of golden light covering towards Han Muye.

Han Muye did not pause; his long sword swept across.

With a resonant sound, the bloody net enveloping the surroundings was torn apart.

His sword edge vibrated once more, and a blue sword light cleaved downwards.

The net that had been cast over Wang Chenlong, the law enforcement elder of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect and powerful warrior at the Dao Breaking Realm, was directly shattered.

Only now did Zhang Mingyuan and others who had followed Han Muye arrive.

“Kill–”

The intermediate Sword Sect disciples soared into the air.

With a flick of the sword in Han Muye’s hand, he deflected Zhao Chengliang’s palm shadow.

His feet didn’t stop moving as his sword edge emitted a thousand streaks of Flowing Light, scattering in all directions and piercing through the bodies of the surrounding Heavenly Roaring Sect powerhouses.

Wu Tangyue brandished a long spear in his hand, thrusting it towards Han Muye’s head.

“Clang–”

The sword collided with the long spear, destabilizing Wu Tangyue’s stance and sending him flying backward.

“He really is a Dao Controller!”

Wu Tangyue murmured under his breath as he turned to flee.

Beside him, Zhao Chengliang shouted loudly, “Retreat–”

After speaking, Zhao Chengliang did not run away. Instead, his body shone with golden light combined with his blood essence, transforming into a three-meter-tall illusory Bloodthirsty War Bear that pounced towards Han Muye.

The sword light in Han Muye’s hand condensed, and with a raise of his hand, he pierced through with a single sword thrust.

This sword thrust was simple and straightforward, yet it was executed with ultimate speed.

The sword light pierced through Zhao Chengliang’s War Bear apparition, and Zhao Chengliang’s entire body shuddered, frozen in place.

His body shattered inch by inch, with his power of the Great Dao dispersing into the surroundings like a column of smoke.

With one strike, a Dao Breaking Realm powerhouse fell!

The other Heavenly Roaring Sect powerhouses who could flee had retreated, while those who could not escape were desperately fighting to buy time for the others.

Han Muye did not chase after them, only sweeping his hand to collect the remaining scattered Heavenly Roaring Sect powerhouses one by one.

In the end, aside from the Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Roaring Sect, Wu Tangyue, and a dozen or so injured powerhouses who escaped, the remaining dozens of cultivators of the Heavenly Roaring Sect were all slain.

This battle directly severed at least forty percent of the Heavenly Roaring Sect’s strength.

After the battle, the members of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect silently cleaned up the battlefield and left silently.

Whether it was Wang Chenlong, whose arm was wrapped in a bandage, or Yao Heceng, who had just regained consciousness and was being carried on a stretcher by disciples, both remained silent.

The disciples from Moon-Encompassing Peak following behind them were also silent.

This group of over a hundred people thus silently made their way towards the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

Along the way, more and more groups of All-Encompassing Sword Sect disciples followed, not knowing the reason.

Were the disciples of All-Encompassing Peak being escorted back?

From over a hundred people gathering to nearly a thousand, everyone remained silent, heading towards the gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

At the gate, shadowy figures were already waiting.

Leading the pack was a black-robed elder in his fifties, his hands behind his back, his face stern.

This was Xia Yunshang, the master of All-Encompassing Peak, and the son of the Sect Leader Xia Mingtang of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

It was rumored within the Sword Sect that the master of All-Encompassing Peak would become the young sect master.

However, the succession of the Sword Sect was not traditionally father to son, but contested between the peaks based on strength.

The talent of Peak Master Guo Hua of Moon-Encompassing Peak had been recognized by many powerful members of the sect.

Only now, Guo Hua was already dead.

“Perhaps the Sect Leader made a mistake this time…” someone at the gate whispered as they looked at the large group approaching from a distance.

If Xia Yunshang and Guo Hua had competed without the Sect Leader intervening, no matter the outcome, it would have been fortunate for the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

But with the current situation, even though Guo Hua had died, the morale of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had also largely dispersed.

“They’re here.”

Someone called out softly.

Up ahead, Wang Chenlong, leading a thousand or so people, stepped onto the broad stone steps.

Everyone looked on as Wang Chenlong suddenly turned around, then stood respectfully off to the side.

“All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s Wang Chenlong welcomes the return of Brother Guo Hua’s sword bones to the sect–”

“Welcoming the return of Peak Master Guo Hua’s sword bones–”

The powerful members of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect standing with Wang Chenlong bowed one by one.

For a moment, in front of the gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, countless people were stunned.
