Chapter 1944

Fang Yuan’s immemorial sword dragon hits Demon Judgment Board head-on and drops it like a meteor, and Duke Long rushes to reinforce. Fang Yuan rises and unleashes triple layered sword wave, amplified at least fifteen hundred times, and its extremely sharp waves go for the immortal graveyard. The graveyard has been his main target from the start. Duke Long’s self-moving dragon qi wall holds the waves for eight breaths and then crumbles, and blood flows from his nose. With Cang Xuan Zi’s vitality gone and her space path methods with it, he has no time to recast it, and the waves reach the graveyard. ^{ch. 1944}

The sleeping Gu Immortals are sliced to pieces, and the waves cut the heaven vine again and again while Cang Xuan Zi does not wake and seems truly dead. Duke Long roars in sorrow and fury. Fang Zheng is dazed, while Qin Ding Ling, a true member of Heavenly Court, cries out that she wants Fang Yuan dead. Old Man Zheng Yuan kneels in Central Great Hall, weeping that they have failed the seniors. Fairy Zi Wei, numb, tearfully blames herself as the leader and planner of Heavenly Court. ^{ch. 1944}

In Imperfection Regret Pavilion, Limitless Demon Venerable’s silhouette holds back Star Constellation Immortal Venerable’s silhouette, who can only watch. Star Constellation says that while fate Gu survives and heaven’s will favors humans, Central Continent can build a second Heavenly Court, and Limitless agrees. He spared the graveyard when he invaded, preferring the qi path and strength path Gu Immortals left by the eras to the rule path and wisdom path ones Heavenly Court would absorb in response. He asks with a smile how long Heavenly Court can last now, and she accuses him of disregarding the big picture. He replies that humanity, having achieved its goal, should pursue a greater one. Star Constellation falls into a rare silence. ^{ch. 1944}

Duke Long, his anger and hatred at an extreme, charges Fang Yuan, but Fang Yuan dodges and keeps activating the wave. Sword waves cover the graveyard completely and dig into the ground, and Heavenly Court’s millions of years of accumulation is destroyed overnight. Duke Long uses dragon offspring, and his purple dragon scales mix with his blood to become dragonman Gu Immortals of rank six, seven and eight. Fang Yuan accuses him of massacring the dragonman race, his own children and grandchildren, to refine them into puppets. Duke Long does not refute it and charges again with deep sadness, while the dragonmen block the sword waves and year beasts. The accusation is true, and he uses this move rarely. ^{ch. 1944}

Fang Yuan activates golden thread sword, and golden threads from every scale pierce the dragonmen around him, who detonate softly into scales and blood. With the immortal graveyard wiped out, he charges Duke Long. Five finger fist heart sword drops his aura to almost nothing, and Duke Long, warned, evades wildly. The first sword light still cuts him from left shoulder to left chest, taking bones, scales and part of the left lung. A hit to his head would have severed it, and it is the first fatal threat he has felt in the battle. Duke Long charges, seeing that every sword needs time to prepare, and Fang Yuan retreats to pull distance. ^{ch. 1944}
