Chapter 5597: Hopeless

Despair was an interesting battle aura. Just-once Dao Lord was someone who only needed one victory after a hundred defeats, honing his sword skills continuously. He loved battles, no different from his patriarch.

He was far from a star during his dao debut. His shallow cultivation meant that he was always on the losing side. Nevertheless, he never became discouraged and always fought until victory became possible.

This type of dao search became the best tradition of Daoist Sword Ground. The love for battle was carved into its members’ bones.

Just-once traveled far on this path, eventually becoming a dao lord. Nonetheless, he didn’t stop and still traveled to the immortal continent.

Outsiders didn’t know the story of how he joined Celestial Court. A relatively reliable explanation suggested that a fight with Celestial Court ended with a promise to join.

His aura had two effects - boosting his determination while lowering the enemies’ morale. This differed from War God Dao Lord’s whose aura invoked heroism and courage into his allies.

One lowered battle spirit while the other did the opposite. It was interesting that these two cultivators came from the same branch.

“The dao of war emphasizes the courage to advance.” War God’s aura beat like a drum.

“Victory is when the enemy is defeated.” Just-once attempted to suppress War God’s aura.

“Clank!” The emperors of Celestial Court penetrated Jadesword Dao Lord’s ocean of blades. He was pierced in several places, being pushed back continuously.

“Boom!” Skysplitter Conqueror’s lightning waves were oppressive and destructive. Unfortunately, they were eventually extinguished.

“Back to Momentous Frontier!” He knew that there was no point in fighting a losing battle.

“To Momentous Frontier!” Dao portals appeared around kingdoms and sects in Dao City. Their cultivators began retreating toward Dao Frontier while the emperors fought to buy time.

Meanwhile, the armies marched forward through the collapsed barriers.

Light descended and imprinted Celestial Court’s special markings on the land, seizing the territories.

Emperors and dao lords could only watch their sects and kingdoms being taken away. Unfortunately, they were powerless to stop the process without the help of Immortal Dao City. The battle was already grim enough and Celestial Court still had other apex cultivators.

“Boom!” Luminous gathered all the lights nearby to stop War and a suppressive beam originating from Celestial Court. He illuminated the entire world - a testament to his title.

“Withdraw to Momentous Frontier!” He withstood the attack while continuing to move backward before shouting.

The remaining combatants heard his command. Anyone with enough power to run immediately headed in that direction.The source of this content can be connected to n0v3lb!n★
