Chapter Fifty-Two: The Alliance of the End Times Beneath the
discovered that he had overlooked one thing again.His speed surpassed Jiang Wang's, and after revealing his true form as the Sea Master, it became even more so. He should have been able to advance and...The abyss is endless, the Baqiao falls endlessly.
Time holds no meaning here, and distance is merely a measure of perception.
This is a journey with no end.
It can be a moment, it can be ten thousand years.
It can be a zhang away, or it could be millions of miles.
This ancient stone bridge, is it falling or ascending Is the end of Yuquan a sunset or the sky—who can say for sure
In conclusion, since General Baqiao jumped into the Yuquan River, let's simply describe it as "falling".
"Greatness" is a power that transcends boundaries. It shatters the limits of this world and exists beyond all heavens and realms. It cannot be described or touched.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this moment, the Baqiao Bridge is immersed in a profound power.
In this endless fall, a sound of utmost chaos arose.
It was bizarre and eerie, as if billions of voices were jumbled together.
Cultivators beneath the peak, simply hearing this voice would cause their Dao to collapse and die. Even if they tried to discern the meaning of this voice, even cultivators at the pinnacle could very likely fall into madness!
>
However, this sound was caught by the Baqiao Bridge.
This voice echoed— "Ying Yun! Transcending the covenant is still in effect, does humanity want to tear it apart"
The Great Founder of Qin Dynasty, Ying Yun, was the second great being to achieve transcendence since the new beginning of the Dao.
The Baqiao Bridge was built by Him to commemorate his past achievements, and it is naturally the bridge of his return to the mortal realm.

At the close of the ancient era, a cataclysmic war shook the heavens and earth. It nearly destroyed this world, the central hub of all existence, plunging the myriad realms into utter silence.
If that were truly the outcome, all living beings in the myriad worlds would be extinguished. Even Dòng Zhēn and Yǎn Dào could not survive.
Even transcendence needs slumber, "eternity" itself must be doubted, because the world of eternity no longer exists.
What those great powers saw and attained, truly immortal, is also without an immortal foundation.
Then, "eternity" and "immortality" can no longer be defined.
All things in the myriad worlds will perish. It will take an unimaginably long eon, perhaps forever, for them to revive.
Even the most powerful beings who can resist oblivion and slumber can only drift in emptiness.
Because there is no "being" in the world, because the "world" does not exist.
No one wants to face such an ending, so "Transcendence Agreement" came into being.
It has an official name, 《The Covenant of the End Times of Heaven's Supremacy》, which is the highest level of covenant in all heavens and worlds. It restricts those who have transcended the mortal realm from interfering!
>
After this agreement, there is a new chapter in Taoism.
This covenant holds such great significance. When the great being dwelling in the depths of Yu Yuan intentionally mentions this agreement, it is bound to be answered.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
So, within that ancient stone bridge spanning time and space, a warm voice echoed, belonging to Ying Yun: "I thought you weren't going to keep your word."
“Truly, the years have been harsh.” In the chaotic space-time, that grotesquely extreme voice said, “Heh heh heh…Back then, it was the Human Emperor Yu and the Jade Palace Master who spoke with me, but now it’s just a youngster under ten thousand years old!”
“Beyond time and space!” Ying Yunnian’s voice boomed. “Time holds no meaning for us anymore. Even someone as great as you should know my name, wouldn’t you say”
An utterly bizarre voice proclaimed, "My name is Yongzhang. You lot remain hidden. On the covenant of transcendence above, your names are absent."
"I haven't had a chance to sign yet," Shiqiao Li Yingnian's voice said, "I will sign it."
“Between signing and not signing, you possess the limited freedom of this world.” A voice of extreme absurdity said: “Heh... So you dare be so presumptuous, coming before me alone!”
Of course, 《The Alliance of the Heavenly Apocalypse's Final Tribulation》 was not a mere empty document. It bore the names of all transcendent beings from myriad worlds and realms, possessing immense power that restricted their actions.
It was at that time, after all transcendents had reached a consensus, that it proactively imposed limitations upon itself to prevent the annihilation of myriad worlds.
If one were to make a forced analogy, it could be seen as the ultimate state of the "Vast Covenant". Its power stems from "consensus", bestowed by the pact makers.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Whoever breaches the contract first will have to pay a heavy price.
Ying Yun achieved great things in an era where transcendence agreements had already been established, of course, his name wasn't on them. Similarly, Ji Fu Ren was the same. These two figures, who transcended after the new beginning of Dao Li, existed relatively freely under the transcendence agreement.
But this does not mean that they can act without restraint.
“This supreme alliance, an immortal covenant. All transcendents shall not interfere in the mortal world at will, lest they bring about a catastrophe of annihilation. Although my name is not on the oath, I am bound by it as well.” Ying Yun said calmly, “You can rest assured, unless absolutely necessary, I would not wish to become the price of breaking the covenant.”
“Cut the chatter!” The voice, utterly bizarre and laced with resentment, declared: “Betrayal by humankind is nothing new. You inherit the virtues of the first humans, yet wish to break your pact Come, step forward and see how I thwart you!”
“You are a vestige of ancient grudges, a being hated by all races. Who dares to underestimate you” Ying Yunian’s voice echoed slowly: “If I were to kill you, I would at least invite the three venerables of the Dao Gate, summon Ji Furen, and lead an army of millions to fill the bottomless Abyss of Yu, uprooting the foundation of Shura... Is that so”
He was describing his plan as if it were a fact, not a hypothesis.
"Call me 'Mother of Primordial Times'!" The voice, utterly bizarre, rippled like watermarks, echoing through history, the present, and attempting to spread into the future: "As long as we exist together, we transcend our limitations. Have I ever moved"
"That's the best outcome! Let worldly affairs stay in this world, and transcendental matters remain transcendental. Since you have stepped out of the world, there is no need to be immersed in the sea of suffering!" Shiqiao's voice said: "I came here with nothing else to do but inform you—from now on, Yu Yuan will be under my watch. I believe we will get along very well."
That eerie voice echoed, "These words will be your epitaph."
"Hahaha—" A hearty laugh echoed from within the stone bridge, belonging to Ying Yun: "Then we shall wait and see!"
>
In this chaotic time, the voice of the Primordial Mother has not sounded again.
The Great Wall cuts across the abyss, within its walls lies a fertile plain of civilization, beyond it, is the hunting ground of the Asura clan.
Of course, the battle line stretching along the Great Wall for thousands of miles doesn't exist in isolation.
This is a placeholder text.
If one were to stand at the highest point, overlooking the entire New Wild Continent, they would see thousands upon thousands of "lines" connecting the Asura army in front of the Great Wall, like countless blood vessels supplying the Asura army.
That was the Asura Clan's endless reserves, and over the long years of war, logistics had become increasingly important to the Asuras.
Beyond the Great Wall, across the vast expanse of land, the Shura tribe's army roamed freely. Countless cavalry, including both ground and aerial units, raced back and forth between the various legions.
Military aircraft, piloted by sky officers, soared through the skies, serving as watchful eyes.
When it comes to "eyes," high above the vast battlefield, there is a bulging crimson flesh eye with intricate veins. It is a hundred meters in diameter and hangs suspended at a great height. Twenty-four translucent, slender fleshy tentacles float outside its body, drifting in the air, making it seem like it's swimming in water.
This is the "Abyssal Eye", the Shura army's lookout tower in this war, a crucial existence for ensuring military vision.
But all of these, obviously, couldn't pose a threat to Jiang Wang and them.
The Seven Celestial Talents of the Human Race formed a formation, drawing a long arc across the battlefield of the Asura Clan. Whether it was Battle Asuras, Intent Asuras, or Evil Asuras, they were all rendered useless. No being except for the Asura King could stop this squad. They were even undetectable by others.
The death of Emperor Ye Yu naturally shook all parties, and the commander of the Asura army would naturally react at the first time. But even with the speed of military orders being transmitted, it wouldn't be able to catch up with the speed of this troop's gallop.
Therefore, the situation of a large army encircling them was almost impossible—unless this elite human squad that killed Huang Ye Yu would be foolish enough to charge headfirst into the Asura clan's pocket.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The dilemma before the Asura King, Shi Jingxian, at this moment was precisely such a one. And the time he had to make a judgment was practically non-existent.
What is known about him is that Huang Ye Yu was killed during the process of assassinating Prince Qin Yingwu.
Then Yingwu must have attained enlightenment. Chong Xuan, Qin Zhizhen, those Human Sovereigns who were previously hunted by Zong Yin, should also be involved in the hunt. Jiang Wang and Ji Zhaonan, these two humans who didn't appear on the battlefield but often lurked in the wilderness, should also be part of this scheme.
From the place where Huang Ye Yu died to the gate of Yuyan Pass, this distance wasn't short, but for a powerful being at top speed, it wouldn't take much time.
Although he could search the vast wilderness in an extremely short time with a single thought, that Yingwu was also at the pinnacle.
>>>From the Hulao Pass, he likely only had one chance to intercept them. If he misjudged the movements of Ying Wu and the others, he would have to watch helplessly as they returned to the Great Wall.
He had finally managed to adjust his lines and escape from the front of Hu Lao Pass. The lengthy battlefront before the Great Wall was now extremely tense for the Asura Clan.
In order to achieve the strategic objective of eliminating Xu Wanting, the Asura clan invested too many troops at Yanshan Pass, with a full two Asura strong armies and two Asura Kings present there.
Yes, eliminating the peak is a strategic objective, not a tactical one.
This text is a placeholder.
A stunning downfall, perfectly encapsulates the outcome of a war.
Even this can be said: in this war that is not yet over, the Asura clan has already become the loser. If they cannot kill a peak human race back, they will face even greater strategic failure—the Asura army will completely lose the possibility of breaking through the city walls in this stage, and the Yu Yuan City Wall will remain stable and immovable from then on!
>
The situation was originally very favorable—the Qin Dynasty prince, ambitious and reckless, ventured deep into the Asura realm to kill the evil Asura Sect Master Annihilation. However, Annihilation escaped, triggering a chain reaction. The Asuras decisively countered, repelling the impulsive Changcheng defenders, and took advantage of the chaos to encircle the disarrayed General Xu Wang. On one side was the head of a top human general, on the other, the head of the Qin prince—all that remained was for the whetted Asura blades to fall.
This is a dream-come-true, a fantasy start!
But the bait turned into a fisherman in an instant, Huang Ye Yu was hunted back instead, and the entire battlefield situation became tense.
Ying Wu's failure to kill Zong Yan indicated that he was still some distance away from reaching the realm of transformation. Of course, in hindsight, it appears to have been a deliberate maneuver. This led to what should have been the most foolproof front line becoming a battleground of suffering and trauma.
The Shura clan must make things right.
Such a huge investment before Yanshan Pass did indeed encircle Xu Wang, letting the Asura Clan see the possibility of killing this famous human general. But it also created a huge sunk cost.
Every inch of the front line must be held at all costs.
This time, ten rulers came out together, encircling the Great Wall. But after Huang Ye Yu's death, no other Asura Kings could be drawn back to counterattack. Only Shi Jingxian could make a move, but at the cost of tightening the front line.

If he could successfully kill these Human race prodigies represented by Ying Wu, it would be a consolation for the death of Huang Ye Yu. It wouldn't be in vain to take this risk.
So the only question that remains is——
Which route will they choose to return by
Shi Jingxian had no time to ponder, the moment he pulled away was the moment he had to make a decision.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In a thought, his form flickered and he arrived at Wuguan.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
Yuyuan Wuguan is the oldest, longest-operating, and most fortified fortress in human history. For humans, it is also the safest and most desirable place to return to.
The human commander of Wuguan was General Gan Ning, an old veteran from the Qin dynasty.
In past years, Shi Jingxuan had clashed with him, leaving a deep impression.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Asura King leading the army outside Wuguan is Yi Jiao, a renowned Asura general. His strategic goal is to prevent the Qin army from advancing westward and to block any human reinforcements from reaching Prince Qin. However, he has no intention of targeting Gan Bu. Both sides are evenly matched, resulting in a stalemate on the battlefield.
As soon as Shi Jingxian arrived at Wuguan, he knew he had made the wrong choice. There was no one here, and he hadn't been able to accurately cut off Yingwu and their return path.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The second choice was naturally not something the Wuying party could possibly take, it was too late!
Shi Jingxian drew his bow, a formidable ancient beast carved onto its body and named "Hua Hu". With the wind swirling around him, he nocked an arrow.
This was a resounding shock to the Xīn Yě Continent. Suddenly, three arrows appeared on the battlefield in the distant vision that could not be reached. They were outside Hǔ Lǎo Guan, outside Jiā Yù Guan, and outside Yàn Shān Guan.
The *Monster Manual* says that in ancient times, the monstrous beast known as "Huahuo" consumed stars for sustenance and was born by drinking moonlight. It fed on all things, nurturing dead flowers. It had no fixed form; when solidified, it took a vase shape. It often said, “Whoever is alive should be thrown into my vase.”
The flowerpot becomes a bow, and the falling arrow brings about extinction.
These three locations are the most likely battlefields where Ying Wu and his group would appear. When their auras are detected, they will be attacked directly.
As the Asura King, Shi Jingxian had to consider the overall situation when making decisions. He couldn't act impulsively based on fleeting emotions; he could only make choices that were most beneficial for the Asura race.
So after drawing his arrow, he immediately drew back empty, transformed in a flash, and took the flowerpot bow that would expand with him into his palm. Using the string as his blade, he slashed towards the human army under Gan Bu's command!
In the depths of the ancient abyss, the primordial mother seemed to issue a decree, but then it subsided. Yet he had no choice but to heed it.
Since we've arrived at Wuguan, let's try to break through it.
This bowstring, like a monstrous blade, cleaves the heavens when it strikes.
At this very moment, the majestic Wugu Pass came alive with a burst of brilliant light. The formation of Yu Yuan's army at the pass had been activated!
That nearly sky-high wall, seemed to become a giant mirror, reflecting endless brilliance. The light, as if becoming a tangible entity, flowed like the sea, making the area before the city gate a vast expanse.
Gan Bu Bing was indeed worthy of his reputation as a renowned military strategist. He commanded his vast army with ease, like an extension of his own arm. His movements in deploying and engaging the troops were seamless and swift. In an instant, he had integrated his entire army, severing the entanglements of the Asura army and blending them within the sea of light.
The Asura King, Yi Jiao, steadied his army formation in the sea of light and was about to lead them forward.
But when Shi Jingxuan's bow and knife fell, the sea of light parted, and the heavens and earth were momentarily clear. The city gate was already closed, and the army retreated into the city. Gan Bu Bing, in armor, stood on the city wall.
Outside Guancheng, there were less than ten thousand stragglers left - they were the frontline troops relentlessly pursued by the Asura army, and also the entangled mess caused by the miscalculation of General Yi Jiao.
He resolutely abandoned thousands to save the army. Even at the moment when Shi Jingxian descended, he had already made his choice.
>
“With so many people, are you all just giving up” Yijiao remained silent for a moment before looking up and asking.
Gan Bubing stood tall on the city wall, ignoring the questions and provocations of the Asura King. He only addressed the human warriors outside the Great Wall: "Gan Bubing is incompetent and unable to face two mighty Asura Lords alone. I can only abandon you all and preserve the Wuguan Pass. Your families, I will raise them. Your grievances, I will bear. There's nothing else to say, all of you, go to your deaths!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Standing so high, looking down at the city below, the densely packed human warriors looked like ants in a line.
They may not be elite soldiers, but they are also sharp Qin troops. They are individuals with concrete lives, and at least in this moment, they are not just cold numbers on a war report.
This line of ants was not in disarray, like a thin tide silently flowing toward the Asura army.
The tide surges on the battlefield.
This is the process of nearly ten thousand soldiers transforming from human beings into numbers.
Here is the text translated into English:
On the city wall, Gan Bubing simply ordered: "Light the signal fire. Since Shi Jingxian has moved to attack, let the Shura army before Hulaoguan become a burial companion for our soldiers!"
