“Let him come here and face his death!” Emperor Lian Qianli’s voice boomed across the Starry Sky like thunder. In that moment, the entire Tianchen Army, an imposing force, marched out from their Cloud Ships. Their aura surged to the heavens, radiating a palpable, murderous intent.
On the other side, Ji Fuyao, in a fiery red gown, was surrounded by a towering River of Spirit Fire. Her delicate feet stood within an endless Domain of fire. She gazed at the Tianchen Empire’s army, then waved her hand lightly, signaling Ye Chen and the others to attack directly. “To annihilate your Tianchen Empire, why would Master even need to lift a finger?”
Ye Chen nodded, his white robe billowing as his Martial Dao Will surged. Without hesitation, he activated the Heaven-Burning Art, ready for the fray.
Xuanji Holy Lord, ever the picture of cold, distant beauty, stood unmoving. A few strands of her white hair danced in the wind, Eerie Power swirling around her, making her a vision of both ethereal beauty and lethal danger.
Wuwu’s monk robes billowed, profound Buddhist energies swirling around him like surging golden ripples.
“Boom!” The four figures charged directly into the Tianchen Empire’s army.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned. The White Robe Star Venerate’s disciples… they were truly this audacious? Four individuals, against the entire might of the Tianchen Empire?
Even Emperor Lian Qianli paused, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, before scoffing. “Since the White Robe Star Venerate refuses to appear, then we’ll simply wipe out his disciples first! Tianchen Army, attack!”
Instantly, a detachment of several hundred Tianchen Army soldiers charged towards Ji Fuyao and the other three. Among them were over a dozen Star Venerate Realm experts! In an instant, they surrounded Ji Fuyao and the others like a surging tide.
With a thought, an Ancient Jade Slip Lu Xuan had given her appeared in Ji Fuyao’s delicate hand. “Crack!” The Ancient Jade Slip shattered instantly! In that moment, Lu Xuan’s Dao and Stance (Rule Power), contained within the Ancient Jade Slip, surged forth like a broken dam. A profound power descended upon this section of the Starry Sky, enveloping all the surrounding Tianchen Army soldiers. This contained Lu Xuan’s Rule Power! The strength of every Tianchen Army soldier was instantly suppressed, their cultivation capped at a mere Three-rotation Star Venerate!
Boom! Ji Fuyao’s delicate foot barely shifted, yet she instantly covered thousands of feet. The Supreme Weapon, Heaven-Burning Spear, materialized in her grasp, and she plunged into the fray. She swept the spear horizontally. “Whoosh!” A boundless torrent of Spirit Fire Power erupted from her, a force capable of incinerating heavens and boiling seas. It coalesced into a colossal fire dragon, hurtling towards the Star Venerate Realm expert directly ahead.
The Star Venerate Realm man, just as he prepared to unleash his most potent killing technique, suddenly realized his power had been drastically suppressed. “Damn it!” The Star Venerate Realm man immediately slashed out with his blade, Blade Qi spanning thousands of feet! The colossal fire dragon met the Blade Qi head-on. The Blade Qi was instantly obliterated, utterly incapable of resistance! In a blink, the Star Venerate Realm man was consumed by the colossal fire dragon. Behind him, dozens of Tianchen Army soldiers were likewise swallowed by the boundless Sea of Spirit Fire. They were instantly incinerated, reduced to dust! The might of that Spirit Fire was simply too terrifying!
“Your Majesty! Save me!” the Star Venerate Realm man shrieked, desperately activating every spirit weapon he possessed to quell the Spirit Fire. But it was all in vain! He could only watch, horrified, as he was consumed, reduced to nothing.
Elsewhere, Ye Chen’s fist connected, instantly exploding the head of a Three-rotation Star Venerate. Blood erupted in a gruesome spray! Another effortless, instant kill!
Xuanji Holy Lord gracefully lifted her hand, and Eerie Power billowed forth, transforming into an endless, suffocating mist. The Tianchen Army soldiers plunged into it, instantly losing their bearings, their bodies corrupted by the Eerie Power, dying one after another.
Wuwu, Vajra Scepter in hand, tore through the Tianchen Army like a golden whirlwind. Wherever his golden light flared, blood sprayed! He was an unstoppable force!
In a mere dozen breaths, this formidable detachment of several hundred Tianchen Army soldiers was utterly wiped out!
Witnessing this scene, everyone was stunned. The White Robe Star Venerate hadn’t even moved, yet he had left behind such a devastating contingency! His Rule Power had suppressed the Tianchen Army’s strength to such an extent!
Emperor Lian Qianli’s face twisted into an ugly mask of fury. He strode forward, One-star Myriad Phase Realm power erupting from him, and unleashed a devastating punch towards that section of the Starry Sky! “Break!” he roared. He had to shatter the White Robe Star Venerate’s Stance, or his Tianchen Army, weakened to such an extent, stood no chance against the White Robe Star Venerate’s four disciples!
A collective gasp swept through the observers. Emperor Lian Qianli was personally intervening, attempting to shatter the White Robe Star Venerate’s Rule Power! His punch erupted, manifesting a colossal fist print nearly ten thousand feet across. Purple lightning crackled around it, dense and radiating immense power, interwoven with countless intricate Dao patterns. This single strike was capable of shattering heavens and rending the earth! An Emperor’s Fist!
“Boom!” The overwhelming force slammed into the Domain born of Lu Xuan’s Rule Power. A faint, almost imperceptible ripple spread across it, yet it effortlessly halted the colossal fist print. The immense fist print, to everyone’s disbelief, began to crack and crumble, dissolving into countless shimmering motes of starlight.
“Pfft!” Emperor Lian Qianli coughed up a mouthful of essence blood, his body reeling from the backlash as he was violently flung thousands of feet backward.
The sight left everyone utterly dumbfounded. What in the world? Emperor Lian Qianli, defeated by a mere Domain left by the White Robe Star Venerate? It was just a sliver of Rule Power, a lingering Domain left by the White Robe Star Venerate, yet it had effortlessly obliterated Emperor Lian Qianli’s full-strength attack!
Hidden observers from the Third Star Ring’s hegemon-level forces blanched. They had gravely underestimated the White Robe Star Venerate!
Only Ji Fuyao and her siblings remained utterly unperturbed. This was, after all, exactly as they expected.
The next instant, Emperor Lian Qianli’s face contorted into a savage snarl. This was the first time in his entire life he had suffered such a public, crushing humiliation. And to think, countless powerful experts were secretly watching his every move! Towering murderous intent erupted around Lian Qianli. He roared, “Seal, come!”
Boom! The void tore open! An Ancient Seal plummeted from the rend in the void, bearing two ancient Starry Sky characters: “Tian! Chen!” With a mental command, the myriad coiling dragon phantoms swirling around the Ancient Seal seemed to awaken, writhing with life. Within it condensed the very Dragon Vein Power of the Tianchen Empire. He roared, pouring his full power into the Ancient Seal. The Tianchen Empire’s Imperial Fortune, its very Dragon Vein Power, was almost entirely concentrated within this single artifact. This power directly surpassed Two-star Myriad Phase Realm!
The Ancient Seal directly smashed towards the Domain in this section of the Starry Sky. “Boom!” “Crack!” Before the stunned eyes of all present, the grand seal—the very symbol of the Tianchen Empire’s authority—began to splinter and crack. The Ancient Seal exploded into a myriad of glittering fragments!
Emperor Lian Qianli froze, utterly dumbfounded. “How… how is this possible?!”
The entire audience was petrified! To this point, the White Robe Star Venerate hadn’t even lifted a finger! And yet, the Tianchen Empire was on the verge of total defeat!
Then, Ji Fuyao, Heaven-Burning Spear in hand, pointed it directly at Emperor Lian Qianli. Her lips parted, a single, chilling word escaping: “Kill!”
The four disciples surged forward, a wave of death. The remaining Tianchen Army soldiers roared, “Protect His Majesty!” and surged forward as one! But it was futile! Ji Fuyao and her siblings were utterly invincible within this Domain! They cut down all who stood in their path, slaughtering without mercy!
“Pfft, pfft, pfft!” A gruesome rain of blood erupted across the battlefield as the Tianchen Army soldiers fell, one after another! Witnessing the carnage, Emperor Lian Qianli let out a desperate roar. “If this is how it must be, then don’t blame me for my ruthlessness!”
