Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 593 - 580: Cleanup
"Indeed."
This Dao Lord fell silent for a moment before saying, "I won't mention Alkaid for now, but the other one who stayed in the Lower Realm Universe should be the unknown Dao Venerable, the successor of the Time Ancestor. His way of doing things... is ruthless and dominant. Over the past two thousand years, how many Dao Lords has he killed... and his purpose, you all can guess without me saying it, is to collect shares."
As soon as these words came out, several Dao Lords in the room fell into contemplation.
After a few breaths, Dao Lord Shenghui couldn't help but speak first, "Time Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor have chosen them, which is tantamount to pinning the hopes of expelling the Nine Major Groups on them. They won't fail to distinguish priorities."
"I'm not doubting their stance."
This Dao Lord sighed, "It's their way of doing things... we may not be able to accept it. Moreover, they may not be willing to accept us either. This can be seen as Alkaid has ascended to the Immortal Realm for two thousand years but has never contacted us."
"Gu Yan, Alkaid is Alkaid, but the Dao Venerable who received the Time Ancestor's succession may not think the same. He obviously understands his situation, hence he seeks ways to hunt and kill Dao Lords to get enough shares."
Daozi in a white robe responded heavily.
In the end, he added, "Although I don't know how he can store those shares..."
After hearing this, the Dao Lord known as Gu Yan understood that Daozi was going to do everything possible to rally as much support as possible, so as to gain an advantage in the upcoming great battle in the Lower Realm Starry Sky.
So...
Even if the successor of the Time Daoist Ancestor has some excessive behaviors, they are willing to turn a blind eye.
After all...
It's for the future of the Ancient Immortal Realm.
They all had this awareness.
For the continuity of the system, for the inheritance of civilization, some sacrifices are inevitable.
"We say so, but we still need to be prepared for the worst."
Gu Yan said this as he glanced at the Dao Lords present, "If all goes well and the successor of the Time Daoist Ancestor is willing to join us to fight against the Nine Major Groups, even if he has made some mistakes before, we can forgive him, and we are also willing to concede some benefits. But if the worst scenario occurs and the successor of the Time Daoist Ancestor is unreasonable... I suggest we still need a contingency plan."
"A contingency plan?"
Dao Lord Qianran looked at him, "Are you saying..."
Gu Yan nodded seriously, "If he inherits the Time Ancestor's succession but is unwilling to take on the responsibilities that he should bear... then, it is necessary for him to hand over his inheritance to someone who can carry this responsibility!"
As these words came out, the gazes of several Dao Lords simultaneously turned towards the man in the white robe.
"You mustn't spout nonsense!"
The white-robed Daozi immediately retorted angrily.
"Daozi!"
Qianran spoke up immediately, "What kind of person are you? With the stature of an Immortal Venerable and considered to be an existence comparable to the Reincarnation Immortal King, you have comprehended the Reincarnation Path to the realm of an Immortal King in less than thirty thousand years. If not for the lack of enough Reincarnation Great Dao shares, you would have been a true Immortal King, standing at the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm."
His eyes held a hint of fervor, "And within twenty thousand years of becoming an Immortal Venerable, you have defeated the conspiracies of the Nine Major Groups dozens of times, slaughtering their underlings by the thousands. Such merits - who else in our Ancient Immortal Alliance could be mentioned in the same breath as you, except for only a few Immortal Kings? If you are not to inherit the Time Ancestor's succession, then who else is worthy?"
"Qianran's words are reasonable! Daozi, with your innate talent, has been able to cultivate the Reincarnation Path to a level comparable to an Immortal King in just thirty thousand years. Utilizing the Wheel of Cause and Effect, one of the three Holy Artifacts within our alliance, you led us through reincarnation and rebirth with the power of the Reincarnation Path. If you gain the Time Ancestor's inheritance, and the Holy Artifacts and treasures they left behind, your future will be boundless."
Dao Lord Shenghui also immediately agreed, "Given time, to become the second Time Daoist Ancestor, to enact a strike against the Chaotic Origin Realm that almost slew a Sovereign, is no vain hope."
"Daozi, reincarnated with the stature of an Immortal King and achieved the true Dao Venerable, naturally should become the leader to oppose the forces of the Nine Major Groups in the Lower Realm Starry Sky! Concentrating all our strength on you will better ensure our victory against the powers of the Nine Major Groups in the Lower Realm!"
Gu Yan spoke again.
"Such divisive talk must never be raised again!"
Reincarnation Daozi waved his hand fiercely, his expression stern as he glanced over the others, "Have you all forgotten? The first taboo of our Ancient Immortal Alliance is that all in-house Dao Lords must not fight amongst themselves."
"We are certainly aware of that."
Gu Yan quickly said, "If that mysterious Dao Venerable who received the Time Ancestor's inheritance is willing to join us and take on the responsibility of fighting the Nine Major Groups, we naturally won't touch him. However, if he refuses to apply the Time Ancestor's power in the right place and insists on going his own way... Even if you, Daozi, agree, we, who have followed from the Immortal Realm, and the two hundred and thirty-three Dao Lords who have joined our Starry Sky Alliance will not agree!"
"That's right, if he doesn't join our Ancient Immortal Alliance and acts alone, we might just let it be, as with his Dao Venerable level strength, the vast starry sky is open to him. But what is the situation now? The Nine Major Groups have descended with more than a handful of Immortal Kings to the Lower Realm, meaning they have mobilized no less than five Venerable Daos, not to mention the dozens, if not hundreds, of individuals with near Venerable Dao strength!"
Qianran spoke righteously, "Such terrifying power, once it fixates on him, will only lead him down a dead end! If he dies, so be it, but if the Time Ancestor's inheritance falls into the hands of the Nine Major Groups, wouldn't that be our worst nightmare!? Therefore, we absolutely cannot allow this to happen!"
"Qianran..."
Reincarnation Daozi wanted to say something more.
Dao Lord Shenghui interjected, "The inheritances of the Time Ancestor and the Void Ancestor are critical for our Ancient Immortal Alliance, tied to whether we can turn the tables. Daozi, you don't want to see this final hope fall into the hands of the Nine Major Groups, do you?"
These words immediately blocked Reincarnation Daozi's response.
With a change of expression and without uttering a word, he said, "There must be a better solution."
"We know, what we are planning for is the worst-case scenario, but just because we don't want it to happen, doesn't mean we shouldn't prepare for it at all."
Dao Lord Qianran.
"Simply a contingency plan, just a contingency plan!"
Reincarnation Daoist repeated this phrase.
"Of course, they are all contingency plans, just in case."
Beside him, Ancient Language echoed, "But after all, the opponent is at the Venerable Dao Level, possessing a prominent reputation. Although, with your strength, Reincarnation Daoist, along with our combined forces, it is not impossible to subdue a true Dao Venerable... But if we do not prepare thoroughly, I'm afraid it will result in considerable losses. Hence, we must ensure this contingency plan is foolproof. Throughout this process, your involvement and cooperation, Reincarnation Daoist, are needed."
"I..."
Upon hearing this, the Reincarnation Daoist's eyes filled with helplessness.
After a long while, he exhaled deeply: "I will cooperate with you, but let me restate once more, this is the worst-case scenario. Should that Dao Venerable truly be willing to work with our Ancient Immortal Alliance, you must respect them as you respect me. Under no circumstances should you resort to violence and cause a situation which pleases our opponents but pains us."
"Rest assured, Reincarnation Daoist, as long as they are willing to cooperate, we will have no complaints."
Dao Lords like Qianran and Shenghui, who once had the power of an Immortal Venerable Level, promised in unison.
As for them possibly being unable to defeat that mysterious Dao Venerable?
They hadn't even considered that possibility.
The power ceiling of the Lower Realm is as such; even the most powerful Immortal Kings can only display the "Dao Venerable" limit in power here.
And for their group, joining forces to besiege a Dao Venerable was not a difficult task.
"Whoosh!"
In the starry sky, the space surrounding Alkaid began to distort.
Relying on his "Dao Lord" talent for manipulating Void Force, the distance between the Hall of Thousand Gods and North Sea Star was easily traversed by Alkaid.
His figure appeared directly within the starry sky.
Once in the space outside North Sea Star, without even needing to meticulously perceive, the presence of dozens, even hundreds of Dao Lords was encompassed within his range.
"So many Dao Lords have gathered outside North Sea Star?"
Alkaid furrowed his brows.
Such a gathering of Dao Lords outside the North Sea Star couldn't possibly be for no reason.
Troublesome visitors.
Thereupon, Alkaid wasted no time, directly summoning the Great Dao Tower.
The Power of the Great Void Path circulated around him.
With a mere clutch of his empty hand, the starry sky centered on him, excluding North Sea Star, contracted at a startling speed.
Like a supermassive black hole emerging in space, it ferociously yanked all matter, all energy in its vicinity, warping everyone's conceptual understanding of space.
Moreover, the speed was extreme!
Even though it might not reach Alkaid's level of traversing hundreds of billions of light-years within a year, at this rate, compressing dozens of light-years of space into the palm of one's hand would only take a matter of days.
Such a method was beyond the imaginative limits of any Dao Lord.
Before these Dao Lords realized what had happened, the space contraction had already pulled a Dao Lord closest to him within an arm's reach.
A Great Void Technique, vibrating with the Power of the Great Void Path, struck the Dao Lord who was now within striking distance instantly.

With the "Dao Lord" level of Void Force, he was not only dealing with the Dao Lords of the Lower Realm; even if a true Immortal King were present, the outcome would have to be decided after the fight.
As for those who claimed to be Reincarnations of Immortal Kings, Dao Venerables, they were no different from ordinary Dao Lords in his presence.
Like encountering damage overflow that exceeds the cap, whether it's a minor character or a boss, both are eliminated in one hit, and there is no distinction.
This Dao Lord hadn't even recovered from the spatial distortion when...
He had absolutely no idea that he was already within Alkaid's attack range.
To the extent that when he was struck by the space Great Dao of the Great Void Technique, and his body was obliterated, he had no knowledge of where the attack came from or which great power had made the move.
"Dao Venerable, please show mercy..."
His panicked Divine Sense attempted to reach out.
But the speed of space contraction had already surpassed the transmission speed of his Divine Sense.
In the end, without even knowing where his opponent was, or managing to release any Divine Sense fluctuations, he was easily erased by the power of the Great Void Technique.
