Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 1139 - 1137: The Lazy Calamity and the Destitute Calamity
Zhou Bai only felt, after the outbreak of the Extreme Calamity, that there seemed to be some ineffable change in the Material World, but because he couldn't truly comprehend this Daoist technique, he couldn't explain this feeling of change or its source.
Yet, Zhou Bai could feel that with the transformation of cosmic laws, the nine Daoist techniques on his Extreme Map were frantically expanding and enhancing, even reaching an incredible degree.
"This is the power of the Heavenly Dao's distortion... This is the force that alters the laws of the universe..."
"This is a Daoist technique that surpasses all Daoist techniques... Is this the power of Ji Wufan?"
Zhou Bai activated the Extreme Calamity, and simultaneously, thousands of clone followers within his armor erupted with the power of the Extreme Disaster.
The voices of thousands of Zhou Bai converged together, accompanying the main body as Zhou Bai slashed out with a sword, merging thousands of whispers into the Sword Qi, traversing space, directly piercing into the Luotian Realm of all the Immortals and gods present, with the power of the Extreme Disaster wrapped around the Sword Qi, piercing into the hearts of everyone present.
"Lend me your cultivation for a moment!"
In an instant, the Immortals and gods present had no time to resist before they felt their cultivation disappear inexplicably, their Primordial Spirit power plummeting, and their degree of Dao transformation even began to regress, each dropping by 1% to 3%.
Conversely, Zhou Bai felt his power rapidly soar, his Primordial Spirit power instantly breaking through twenty thousand, even able to feel the space, as if he could step lightly and traverse space, change spatial structure, and even see the location of the Luotian Realm of the gods, possessing capabilities only Immortals and deities had.
Feeling the regression in their cultivation, the Dutian Great Spirit Officer looked at Zhou Bai in shock: "What did you do?" He shook his hand, spreading the Innate Dao Extreme Map, turning it into a black curtain enveloping the entire Miluo Heavenly Palace.
With the protection of the Innate Dao Extreme Map, the decline in cultivation of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the host of Immortals immediately stopped.
Looking at the expanded Innate Dao Extreme Map, Zhou Bai slashed out another sword, and the power of the 15th Tribulation of the Chaos Star Constellation Disaster erupted, instantly splitting the Array of the Palace's Immortal light in half with a black torrent of swords.
However, when the black torrent of swords landed on the Immortal Heaven Dao Extreme Map, it seemed like a mud bull entering the sea, not damaging it in the slightest.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer sneered: "Zhou Bai, this is an Immortal Artifact, no matter what means you use, you won't break it."
After speaking, he changed the Daoist seals in his hands, striking out thirty-six Void Palm Seals across the empty space, his Primordial Spirit power surged like tsunamis, generating thundering sounds that reverberated across the sky, striking Zhou Bai from afar with the might of heavens collapsing and earth cracking.
In the burst of crackling atmospheric explosions, waves of energy burst from Zhou Bai's body.
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "Are you even worthy of my full means?"
The tail representing the Lazy Calamity behind Zhou Bai swung forcefully, instantly activating the Lazy Calamity, with the nine star point Daoist techniques of the Lazy Map being enhanced each time, reaching an unbelievable realm.
The defensive power provided by Tang Ruhai also repeatedly surged, even akin to the Mountain and Sea Giant Force within the Zuo Dao raging forth.
Feeling the majestic force within that seemed capable of creating Heaven and Earth, Zhou Bai looked in the direction of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and others, saying: "You also come and take a palm from me."
Seen Zhou Bai extending his hand to grab, directly pressing onto the Innate Dao Extreme Map, the Dutian Great Spirit Officer's expression changed, while the Taiyi Yinghua Divine Light, Void Palm Seal, and Xuan Yuan One Qi Sword were unleashed one after another, beams of divine light, palm seals, and sword artifacts crashing onto Zhou Bai's body, but were instantly shattered by the recoil.
On the contrary, although Zhou Bai couldn't break the Innate Dao Extreme Map, it was continually pressed down under the suppression of the Mountain and Sea Giant Force within Zhou Bai, as the roaring atmospheric booms echoed, enveloping the entire Heavenly Palace and dragging it toward the ground.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer roared, directly opening arrays between him and the Immortals: "Operate the Innate Dao Extreme Map with me! We must not let Zhou Bai suppress this Immortal Artifact!"
"Rise!"
The Immortals and gods present frantically cast Daoist techniques to reinforce the Innate Dao Extreme Map, finally stopping its descent, anchoring it firmly in mid-air, resisting Zhou Bai's pressing palm.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer called out: "Zhou Bai! Only Immortals and gods can protect mortals. Without the guidance of Immortals and gods, mortals would have perished in this universe long ago. Your attempts to lead mortals in rebellion against the Heavenly Court undermine the foundation of humanity!"
Zhou Bai responded coldly: "Your foundation has long since rotten away. Without you, humanity can be better."
With these words, before the Immortals and gods could breathe a sigh of relief, Zhou Bai's palm lightly shivered, causing the whole Innate Dao Extreme Map to tremble, one inch pressing it down.
The intense recoil directly impacted the Primordial Spirit power of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the Immortals present, who each aroused their spiritual power, straining to resist, yet they could not halt the increasingly rapid descent of the Innate Dao Extreme Map.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer let out a crazy roar: "Zhou Bai! The Mixed Blood Human Race you protect will only pollute the human bloodline, making it impossible for all future humans to become Immortals or deities! You're stifling humanity's future!"
Seen his entire Primordial Spirit power was poured into the Innate Dao Extreme Map, causing the shadows within the map to struggle fiercely, transforming into one black hand after another with twisting power grabbing at Zhou Bai, leaving deep blood marks in the air wherever they passed, polluting everything in the Material World.
Zhou Bai allowed the shadowy hands to grab him, with his whole body like an unstoppable heavenly force, continuing to press down the Innate Dao Extreme Map, seeing it crashing onto the Heavenly Palace with a thunderous roar, turning countless pavilions and towers to dust, dragging the entire Heavenly Palace toward the earth.
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "I am not an Immortal or deity, yet I can still defeat you. In the future, everyone can learn my Daoist techniques, and everyone can defeat you."
He felt the power of the Lazy Calamity and Extreme Calamity, with dazzling brilliance flickering in his eyes: "You Immortals and gods have cultivated for thousands upon thousands of years, but you don't understand what Dao truly is."
The twisting power of black hands frantically tugged at Zhou Bai's body, trying to stop him, but it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, being shattered by the reflected recoil from Zhou Bai's body.
Even thousands of replicas whispered Zhou Bai's name, with the advancing Madness Disaster twisting every black hand transformed from the Innate Dao Extreme Map.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer looked at this scene in disbelief, roaring: "You are insane! Spreading this kind of Daoist technique will lead to chaos in the world!"
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "No matter how chaotic the world is, I can suppress it with a flip of my hand."
As he spoke, Zhou Bai flipped his hand and pressed down, seeing the blood and Primordial Spirit of the Immortals and gods being directly blasted away in the remote explosive force of the Mountain and Sea Giant Force, crashing down like meteorites onto the ground.
With the sound of the earth trembling loudly, the ground was struck out into dozens of large craters resembling meteor impacts, erupting with a surging atmospheric wave amidst the thunderous booms.
Zhou Bai, with one hand grasping the Innate Dao Extreme Map, which in its fierce struggle, whipped up howling winds that swept and demolished peaks, but the Innate Dao Extreme Map seemed completely suppressed by dozens of mountain ranges and seas, unable to free itself from Zhou Bai's grip.
With the Innate Dao Extreme Map in hand, Zhou Bai walked towards the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the Immortals who had fallen onto the ground.
Just as they intended to retreat, Zhou Bai raises the Human Emperor Sword in his hand, slashing out, as golden Sword Qi carrying Heavenly Dao bullets directly broke open their Luotian Realm, severely injuring it, leaving them barely considering their retreat.
As Zhou Bai approached the defeated Immortals, they showed expressions of sorrow and despair. Never had they thought that after cultivating all these years, they would utterly and completely be defeated by a mere mortal.
Seeing Zhou Bai single-handedly suppressing the Immortal Artifact further filled them with a sense of hopelessness, realizing even if they restored their peak cultivation, they couldn't contend with Zhou Bai.
Especially the scene where Zhou Bai single-handedly suppressed the Immortal Artifact made them feel hopeless in contending against Zhou Bai, even with the return of their peak powers.

In the sea of consciousness, Christina slapped Elsa on the head, saying coldly: "No matter how chaotic the world becomes, I can still suppress it with a flip of my hand!"
"Ouch," Elsa fell to the ground, saying in exasperation, "I've been defeated!"
---
At this moment, Ming Yue staggered to her feet, saying: "Even if the world is chaotic, I will suppress it with all I have."
Zhou Bai looked at Ming Yue's complex gaze staring at him, sighed: "Ming Yue, it's you who've been actively attacking me."
Ming Yue said: "We don't need to pursue becoming Immortals or deities. Don't ordinary humans deserve to pursue the cultivation of the way of the Immortals? What is wrong with pure blood humans wanting to become Immortals or gods?"
Zhou Bai lowered his eyes, sighing: "There's no need to pursue becoming Immortals or gods. Humanity can be better on its own."
Without waiting for the Immortals to take a breath, Zhou Bai's palm lightly shivered, and the entire Innate Dao Extreme Map trembled violently again, pressed inch by inch downward.
The intense recoil directly struck at the Primordial Spirit power of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the Immortals present, they rallied their spiritual forces, struggling to resist, but could not prevent the speed at which the Innate Dao Extreme Map continued its descent.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer shouted madly: "Zhou Bai! Protecting those Mixed Blood Human Race members will only pollute the human bloodline, making it impossible for all future humanity to become Immortals or gods! You are strangling humanity's future!"
His entire Primordial Spirit power poured into the Innate Dao Extreme Map, causing the shadows inside the map to struggle violently, morphing into large black hands with twisting power, reaching for Zhou Bai, leaving blood marks in the air everywhere they passed, tainting everything in the Material World.
Zhou Bai let the shadowy hands pull at his being, his whole body resembling an unstoppable force of nature, continuing to press the Innate Dao Extreme Map downwards, seeing the map that once covered the entire Heavenly Palace crash against it with a thunderous roar, causing countless pavilions and towers to shatter into dust, carrying the entire Heavenly Palace toward the ground.
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "Even if I am not an Immortal or deity, I can still defeat you. In the future, everyone will be able to learn my Daoist techniques, and everyone will be able to defeat you."
Feeling the power of the Lazy Calamity and the Extreme Calamity, his eyes shimmered with a dreamy radiance: "You Immortals and gods have cultivated for thousands of years, yet you fundamentally don't comprehend what Dao is."
The shadowy hands with twisting power frantically tugged at Zhou Bai, attempting to halt him, but he continued to press the Innate Dao Extreme Map down as if driven by an unstoppable divine force, causing the map covering the entire Heavenly Palace to crash onto the ground with immense booms, shattering countless pavilions and towers to dust.
Zhou Bai said calmly: "I'm not an Immortal or god, yet I can still defeat you. In the future, everyone will be able to learn my Daoist techniques, and everyone will be able to defeat you."
His eyes sparkled with an enchanting light as he felt the power of the Lazy Calamity and Extreme Calamity: "You've cultivated for thousands and thousands of years, Immortals and gods, yet you fundamentally don't understand what Dao really is."
The black shadow hands with their twisting power crazily tore at Zhou Bai's body, trying to undermine him, but were shattered by the recoil from his body like clay oxen sinking into the sea.
Even the squadrons of replicas faintly murmured Zhou Bai's name, and the advancing Madness Disaster swept the Innate Dao Extreme Map, causing the Dutian Great Spirit Officer to look upon the scene in disbelief, howling: "You have gone mad! Spreading such a Daoist technique will only lead to chaos in the world!"
Zhou Bai said calmly: "I'm not afraid of chaos; I can subdue the world with a flip of my hand."
With these words, Zhou Bai pressed his palm down, and the blood and Primordial Spirit of the Immortals were directly blasted away in the distant mountain and sea-like force, making dozens of massive craters resembling meteor impacts, erupting with tremendous atmospheric waves amid the rumbling boom.
Zhou Bai, hand gripping the fiercely struggling Innate Dao Extreme Map, walked towards the fallen Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the host of Immortals on the ground.
They each attempted to flee, but saw Zhou Bai slash out with the Human Emperor Sword, the golden sword aura already breaking through their Luotian Realm with Heavenly Dao bullets, striking directly and heavily damaging their realms, and making their escape inconceivable as their Luotian Realm shattered before their eyes.
With Zhou Bai advancing toward the overwhelmed Immortals, a trace of sorrow and despair flashed across the faces of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the Immortals. They never thought even in their prime that they would be unable to contend with a mere mortal to such an extent.
Particularly the scene where Zhou Bai single-handedly suppressed the Immortal Artifact; it made them feel that even if they recovered their peak powers, they could not possibly contend with Zhou Bai.

In the sea of consciousness, Christina slapped Ai Sha's head and coldly said: "No matter how chaotic the world is, I have the power to lay waste with just a flip of my hand."
Ai Sha yelped and fell to the ground, helplessly said: "I've been defeated!"
---
At this moment, Ming Yue staggered to her feet, swaying: "No matter how chaotic the world becomes, I will let it be."
Zhou Bai looked at Ming Yue, her complex gaze staring at him, and said helplessly: "Ming Yue, you all have been the ones actively attacking me all along."
Ming Yue said: "We don't need to pursue becoming Immortals or deities. For humanity's development, is there anything wrong with pure-blooded humans wanting to cultivate the Dao, wanting to become Immortals or gods?"
Zhou Bai lowered his eyelids, sighing: "There's no need to pursue becoming Immortals or gods. Humans can be better without you."
Before the Immortals could even catch their breath, Zhou Bai's palm gently shivered, causing the entire Innate Dao Extreme Map to tremble again, pressing it down inch by inch.
The powerful recoil struck directly at the Primordial Spirit power of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the surrounding Immortals, each maneuvering their spiritual energy, desperately resisting, yet unable to prevent the speed of the descending Innate Dao Extreme Map from increasing.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer let out a furious roar: "Zhou Bai! Protecting those Mixed Blood Human Race members will only pollute the human bloodline, preventing all humanity from becoming Immortals and deities in the future! You are strangling humanity's future!"
His entire Primordial Spirit power was poured into the Innate Dao Extreme Map, seeing the shadows violently struggle to transform into dark hands with twisting power, grabbing at Zhou Bai, leaving bloody trails in the air wherever they passed, polluting everything in the Material World.
Zhou Bai allowed the black shadows to transform into hands that tugged at him, continuing to press the Innate Dao Extreme Map down. The entire map, enveloping the Heavenly Palace, crashed onto it with an immense roar, reducing countless pavilions and towers to dust and dragging the entire Heavenly Palace down toward the earth.
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "I am not an Immortal or deity, yet I can still defeat you. In the future, anyone will be able to learn my Daoist techniques, and everyone will be able to defeat you."
He felt the power of the Lazy Calamity and Extreme Calamity, his eyes flickering with an enchanting light: "You Immortals and gods have cultivated for thousands of years, but you don't understand what Dao truly is."
The black hands laden with twisting power furiously tore at Zhou Bai's body, attempting to hinder him, but it was like trying to stop a chariot with one's bare hands, being shattered by the recoil distance from Zhou Bai's body.
Even thousands of replicas whispered Zhou Bai's name, while the advancing Madness Disaster twisted the black hands of the Innate Dao Extreme Map.
The Dutian Great Spirit Officer looked on in disbelief, roaring: "You are already insane! Spreading this Daoist technique to the world will only result in chaos!"
Zhou Bai said indifferently: "No matter how chaotic the world is, I can suppress it."
Speaking, Zhou Bai flipped his hand, pressing down, and just as the blood and Primordial Spirit of the gods were struck flying away in the Mountain and Sea Giant Force's distant shockwaves, they plunged toward the ground like meteors.
With a thunderous boom, the ground was struck with dozens of large craters resembling meteor impacts, as surging atmospheric waves exploded amid the rumbles.
Holding the Innate Dao Extreme Map in hand, Zhou Bai walked towards the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the assembled Immortals who had fallen on the ground.
As they attempted to retreat, Zhou Bai swung the Sovereign's Sword in his hand, the golden Sword Qi already carrying Heavenly Dao bullets directly breaking open their Luotian Realm, severely damaging them and temporarily preventing them from retreating into their Luotian Realm.
Watching Zhou Bai approach step by step, the faces of the Dutian Great Spirit Officer and the Immortals flashed a slight look of sorrow and despair. They never thought that after cultivating for so many years, they would ultimately be completely defeated at the hands of a mere mortal.
Particularly the scene of Zhou Bai single-handedly suppressing the Immortal Artifact made them feel that even if they restored their peak cultivation, they couldn't contend with Zhou Bai.
Their long-held heart committed to the Immortal Dao was shaken by Zhou Bai's display.
...
In the sea of consciousness, Christina smacked Ai Sha on the head, coolly stating: "No matter how chaotic the world is, I can suppress it with a flip of my hand."
"Ouch!" Ai Sha fell to the ground, saying helplessly: "I've been defeated!"
...
At that moment, Ming Yue staggered up, standing in front of Zhou Bai: "Enough, Zhou Bai, do you intend to kill all the Immortals?"
Zhou Bai looked into Ming Yue's complex gaze, saying helplessly: "Ming Yue, it's you all who've been attacking me all along." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Ming Yue said: "We are resisting demons, for the development of the human race. What's wrong with pure-blooded humans wanting to cultivate the Dao, wanting to become Immortals and gods?"
Zhou Bai lowered his eyelids, sighed, "There's no need to pursue becoming Immortals or gods. Humanity can become strong on its own..."
"Zhou Bai, you owe me." Ming Yue stubbornly looked at Zhou Bai, clenching her fists, and said word by word: "Spare them this time, and we will be even."
"Wretch!" Another cold snort sounded, and a bloody shadow burst out of the ground, directly sweeping towards the heavily injured Ming Yue.
