The Divine King’s bearing was exactly as it had been of old — white robes untouched by dust, black hair dancing lightly, eyes profound and deep as the ocean. He possessed a supreme, unmatched bearing.
Step by step he advanced. The eleven Saint-level figures and two ancient monsters involuntarily retreated, every single one bearing fear in their hearts.
The Peerless Divine King was reborn — one person standing alone against thirteen absolute peak experts, yet as though entering a deserted place, having overawed everyone. Truly a world-shaking display of might.
Some among the overlords present wanted to flee, but thinking of the sacred city being sealed and suppressed, their hearts instantly sank. Perhaps there was nothing but a desperate, last-ditch battle.
Boom!
The Divine King’s presence surged steeply. Snowy white robes swayed; in his surroundings hundreds and thousands of streams of divine radiance erupted, connecting all the way up to the heavens.
Each one was incomparably thick — like a pillar supporting the sky — dazzling and brilliant, rending the night sky, piercing through the empyrean, making Heaven and Earth tremble.
This was the Peerless Divine King’s killing intent!
Parted for four thousand years — the beloved grown old, covered in white cloth, lonely and grieving: this was his great anguish.
The Peerless Divine King was no weeping child — he would not wail or weep in streams of tears. But his pain and grief ran deeper still, his heart filled with boundless desolation that outsiders could barely fathom.
Killing energy pervaded the air. The entire sacred city was like stepping into deep winter — fallen leaves swirling endlessly, filled with a spirit of murderous chill.
Boom!
Jiang Taixu struck. In a single step he came before the eleven Saint-level figures. At his side, the soaring beams of light transformed into supreme sword radiance, all surging forward together.
The Holy War Technique!
This was the first time the Divine King had displayed one of the Nine Secrets — the Assault Sacred Art. Its destructive power was unmatched under heaven. In this moment everyone’s expressions changed as they did everything in their power to resist.
The Divine King’s black hair flew wild, his eyes sharp as knives. In his every gesture, ten thousand streams of sword radiance shot out — the void was struck into a honeycomb shape, completely pierced through.
Clang clang clang!
The eleven powerful masters and two ancient monsters were all enveloped by the sword radiance. This was a kind of awe-inspiring dread rooted in the soul — the Divine King’s killing intent was like a blade, surging in all four directions.
Hum!
The void was torn open. Jiang Taixu reached out one great hand, transforming it into the existence of the “Dao,” forcibly seizing a Saint-level figure into his hand.
“This…”
Everyone was horrified. The Divine King’s means were heaven-defying — with one display of his secret art, he could draw even a powerful master into his grasp with nowhere to escape. This made all those present feel a chill down their spine.
“Divine King, forgive this transgression…” This Saint-level figure was terrified. In this life-or-death moment, he called out in force, trying to explain something.
Thud!
Yet Jiang Taixu gave him not the slightest opportunity. Calm as an ancient well, he dragged his great hand through the air — in midair, a flash of blood light, and one of the world’s great overlords became ash, leaving nothing behind.
Boom!
This expanse of Heaven and Earth seemed to boil. The Peerless Divine King had unleashed the Holy War Technique — meaning he was about to begin a great slaughter! Everyone knew he was said to possess the greatest combat power of five thousand years — once the Strike character formula was out, who could resist?
“All of you — do you still want to live? If you don’t want to die, strike with everything you have!” One matchless ancient monster roared.
No one could be calm. When the Divine King’s wrath rose, this corner of Heaven and Earth shook. His might was incomparably terrifying — directly obliterating a Saint-level figure. They had to fight with their backs against the wall and battle him to the death.
Because there was no way to escape the sacred city now — the Cosmic Sacred Cauldron had sealed the ancient city, completely isolated from the outside world.
Boom!
A massive white bone banner was suppressed downward — towering and standing tall, heavy and vast as a mountain of white bone!
This was a weapon that one matchless ancient monster had spent his entire life refining. Long since interwoven with terrifying order rules of Heaven and Earth — a heavy weapon of awe-inspiring might.
Bang!
Yet facing a white bone mountain-like massive demonic banner, Jiang Taixu remained undaunted, pressing ever forward, throwing one fist upward toward the sky.
Boom!
At the same moment, everyone else also struck. Heavy weapons interwoven with laws transformed into cosmic great stars, pressing down.
Boundless, limitless Pressure Aura, united together, forming a supreme killing opportunity, completely enveloping the Divine King.
The Divine King was unmatched. His eyes shot forth electric radiance; his jet-black long hair flew back as he defied the heavens and moved forward — never retreating, pressing ever onward with no possibility of withdrawal.
Dong!
The Ancient Sky-Devouring Demonic Jar trembled lightly, releasing a spirit-chilling energy that blocked nearly all the divine weapons.
The Divine King was without equal — his sharpness completely revealed. Like a return to four thousand years ago — high-spirited, supreme unto himself. On his fist appeared innate Dao imprints, supremely abstruse.
Boom!
With a spirit-chilling fist he struck directly at the mountain-sized white bone great banner. Heaven and Earth shook — as if returning to an ancient battlefield, as if a vast army waged a fierce and intense battle, with rolling, rumbling sounds.
Crack!
The Holy War Technique — its offensive power unrivaled under heaven!
The Divine King’s wrath caused Heaven and Earth to change color. The fist displaying Heaven and Earth divine inscriptions sent the white bone great banner cracking and shattering in the high sky, producing sounds of “crack crack crack.”
Then with a boom it exploded completely, shattered to powder, light radiating in all directions — white bone shards scattering like a burst of fireworks blooming.
“Ahh…”
Jiang Taixu destroyed the white bone banner and killed his way to close quarters. The ancient monster let out a great cry, blood streaming from between his brows, as if a scarecrow he was sent flying. He had nearly been cleaved alive by the Divine King Jiang.
Clang!
A great bell in the sky was suppressed downward — yet the Divine King slapped it apart into fragments with a single palm stroke, the order rules interwoven within it shattered in an instant.
Everyone’s hearts turned cold. Even a heavy weapon like this, refined over many years with Heaven and Earth Dao imprints branded into it, could not withstand even a single strike from Jiang Taixu — so how could they possibly resist?
“None of you need worry — Jiang Taixu has only just been revived; he cannot sustain great battle for long. As long as we drag it out until his strength is exhausted, we can certainly kill him!” One matchless ancient monster called out loudly.
Boom!
The crowd closed in, surrounding the Divine King, beginning to carve Dao inscriptions — seeking to seal and suppress him — while simultaneously offering up one heavy weapon after another to draw on the power of Heaven and Earth, intending to use the force of creation to suppress him.
Bang!
Unfortunately, their plan was destined to come to nothing. The Divine King was like a true dragon, unstoppable. Piercing the void with ease, with the Holy War Technique deployed, neither Dao inscriptions nor heavy weapons could block him in the slightest.
Clang!
Jiang Taixu seized a purple long spear and with a powerful shake sent a suppressed ancient pagoda flying.
He stepped forward, using the opponent’s heavy weapon to kill his way through. Everyone struck at him — yet none could breach the protection of the Ancient Sky-Devouring Demonic Jar.
The Divine King’s eyes blazed like lightning, locking onto one opponent and refusing to let go. He moved through the void, finally catching up to close quarters.
Though others combined their forces to obstruct him from pursuing and slaying this powerful master, it was all too late — no one could make him stop.
“Ahh…”
That Saint-level figure cried out and spat — innate original source vital energy erupting from his mouth. When someone of this level fought desperately, it was absolutely terrifying — withering and pulling out all by the roots. Any expert would need to avoid it.
Yet the Divine King’s expression was cold, utterly unchanged. The tip of the purple spear aligned, and with a boom instantly shattered that powerful master’s innate original source to powder.
Moreover, in the Divine King’s hand the long spear was imbued with the laws of the Heavenly Dao, sealing this powerful master in the void — as if bound to a wooden post.
Thud!
The Divine King shook the purple spear, piercing this Saint-level figure through, lifting him alive, and then with a powerful shudder — a great boom, blood rain flying — yet another great figure had fallen.
Everyone was horrified. This was a Saint-level figure! The absolute peak expert under heaven. Even when battling an opponent to the death, it was almost impossible to be killed in such a fashion.
The Peerless Divine King’s divine might was unrivaled. With the Ancient Sky-Devouring Demonic Jar protecting him, he was nearly invincible. By now, not a single person dared to step forward.
At this moment, nearly everyone had developed thoughts of retreat, wishing to immediately escape the sacred city.
“What do we do — the sacred city is sealed; there is no way to retreat!”
Nine Saint-level figures and two ancient monsters all felt their hearts turn cold — absolutely no options remained.
Jiang Taixu stood with spear in hand, advancing step by step with killing intent growing ever thicker. He did not howl, did not grieve — all that existed was killing intent, using the blood of these people to make offerings in mourning for the Immortal Fairy Caiyun.
Finally, someone could not endure the Divine King’s killing intent, and fled toward the distance, retreating from battle. Even if unable to escape the sacred city, they were unwilling to face Jiang Taixu in such a manner — better to live even a moment longer.
Boom!
Heaven and Earth shook. That person was instantly sent tumbling back, and everyone else was also blocked — utterly unable to leave.
“Divine King’s Pure Land!”
“This is Jiang Taixu’s Singular Vision!”
…
Everyone’s expressions went deathly pale. The Peerless Divine King had used his Singular Vision to seal this place — clearly unwilling to let a single person escape.
Though it was deep in the night, this place was now bathed in radiance. Jiang Taixu had unleashed his own Singular Vision — the Divine King’s Pure Land.
This was a magnificent and beautiful pure land — spiritual springs gurgling, flowers and grasses spreading in carpets — truly like a paradise on earth. Yet at this moment it was filled with boundless grief.
Falling blossoms rained from the sky, each petal stained with blood. The Divine King stood at the center of the pure land — one arm cradling the Immortal Fairy Caiyun’s corpse, one hand wielding the purple battle spear.
“Jiang Taixu, are you not afraid that we will fight with everything we have?” One matchless ancient monster roared.
The Divine King did not answer. One arm holding the Immortal Fairy Caiyun, one hand wielding the battle spear, he advanced step by step, blood-stained flower rain enveloping him and the Immortal Fairy Caiyun together.
“This… what do we do? Within the Divine King’s Pure Land, Jiang Taixu is absolute god!”
“The Divine King is the overlord of the Eastern Wilderness. He has surpassed his former pinnacle — how can we fight?!”
Everyone within the Divine King’s Pure Land panicked. Now, even escaping was impossible — within this Divine King’s Singular Vision, Jiang Taixu was the absolute ruler.
“We all unleash our Singular Visions together — shatter the Divine King’s Pure Land!” One matchless ancient monster bellowed.
Boom!
Various Singular Visions blazed forth — five-colored divine radiance soaring to the heavens, seven-colored auspicious light scattering in all directions. Yet all this was futile — the Divine King’s Pure Land was unshakable.
Moreover, the Ancient Sky-Devouring Demonic Jar seemed an eternal wall of protection, floating within the pure land, neutralizing all the terrifying divine power of the various Singular Visions.
“Caiyun…” The Divine King’s eyes were filled with grief, and then, holding the battle spear, he advanced once more — returning to his spirit-chilling divine might.
Clang— clash— ring—
Within the Divine King’s Pure Land, all present struck with full power. Various heavy weapons interwoven with laws all surged forward at once, and moreover many supreme wondrous arts transformed into dazzling radiance, falling to envelop the Divine King.
Yet none of this could change anything. The Divine King’s Pure Land and the Ancient Sky-Devouring Demonic Jar in combination formed the most impenetrable and fearsome divine ground.
Hum!
The Divine King’s spear advanced — the void trembled. None could withstand it. He instantly pierced a seven-layered pagoda, reducing it to powder.
Then the purple battle spear continued forward, piercing ahead. That Saint-level figure — even with boundless divine power and ten thousand Dao arts — could not block this world-shaking blow!
Thud!
Jiang Taixu struck with one blow, piercing him through. With one arm cradling the Immortal Fairy Caiyun and one hand wielding the spear, he hoisted the figure high, shook it with force — with a great boom, blood rained down, and yet another great figure had fallen.
Boom!
Within the pure land, the Divine King did not pause. Even as he ran one powerful master through, he took a single step and was before one matchless ancient monster.
Within this pure land of falling blossoms, he truly was like a divine being — omnipotent. One blow pressed down — the ancient monster’s frame nearly shattered on the spot.
The matchless ancient monster let out a great roar, various divine radiances erupting from between his brows to strike at Jiang Taixu — yet unfortunately, nothing could help.
Bang!
The Divine King struck once, reducing all divine weapons to ash — all secret arts became nothing, unable to obstruct him for a single moment.
Thud!
The Divine King swung the purple long spear like a sharp blade, cleaving it straight down. The matchless ancient monster was instantly cleaved into two halves; his ocean-like spiritual consciousness was ground to ashes.
The last matchless ancient monster’s courage had turned cold. When he saw that Jiang Taixu had locked his gaze upon him, he cast aside all else and cried out: “Taixu brother… do not kill me!”
Hum!
Jiang Taixu, cradling the Immortal Fairy Caiyun, arrived before him in a single step. The purple battle spear pressed against his forehead bone; purple sharp radiance pulsed and flickered.
Thud!
The matchless ancient monster instantly dropped to his knees, trembling as he said: “Taixu brother… spare my life. Of all those who lived in the same era as us, only you and I are left.”
