Chapter 649: Chapter 452: Heavenly Punishnt Strikes, Inescapable Death (Part 2)
He saw through the act of Song Lingxue forcefully suppressing her subordinates, allowing Chu Zheng to leave, and the complex indescribable emotions behind it.
But in his eyes, it ant nothing.
From start to finish, Song Lingxue carried little weight in his perspective. The previous generation’s Martial Ancestor decreed that she could never enter the Ancestral Realm in this life, which had already destined her to be eliminated early in this Dao War.
However, Song Lingxue was more than adequate as a vanguard commander. This sword still had its use for now, enough to remain on the front line to continue attracting the Immortal Alliance’s attention, stirring the clouds of battle.
But it was Chu Zheng who was truly key now.
With this thought determined, the Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor hesitated no longer, casually taking a step forward.
Crack—
The endless void of the Star River beneath his feet, like a fragile glass mirror, instantly filled with cracks, unleashing a terrifying aura capable of holding open the vast cosmos, bursting forth without reservation from his body covered in Blood Jade Armor.
A vast shadowy river spanning ancient tis and connecting life’s rise and fall in the universe suddenly erged behind the Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor. This was the projection of the River of Ti.
The shadowy river was vast and boundless, its source unseen and its downstream end unknown, only within its flow were endless fragnts of ti visible.
Each tiny fragnt reflected different scenes—historical retrospection, stars shifting, mountains and rivers falling silent, dynasties changing banners, rise and fall passing by, the joys and sorrows of billions of living creatures, the cycle of life and death of universal beings—all floated within this illusory river.
The river surged silently, emanating an eternal essence of extinction, enough to make all heavens and paths tremble.
In this instant, the Heavenly Punishnt was no longer rely a martial cultivator but nearly an embodint of space-ti. A single thought could decay Stars, a single notion could invoke Space-Ti Retrospection and leave echoes in the eons of ti.
He slowly raised his hand, pressing toward the figures of Chu Zheng and the two leaving behind him, like the judgnt of the Master of Ti.
Buzz—
In the folded void behind Chu Zheng, the blurry figures of Xi Youyue and Lei Chen abruptly beca exceptionally solid.
In an instant, danger descended, both their expressions changed dramatically, as the Immortal Dao Origin within them simultaneously began to boil.
The moonlight flowing around Xi Youyue suddenly beca incredibly fierce, the space-ti law surged, countless silver-white Immortal Patterns gushed forth like a blizzard and quickly ford layers upon layers of barriers, protecting Chu Zheng’s form.
Lei Chen’s expression slightly darkened, as he raised his hand to brush against his waist, the ancient jade at his waist erupted with unprecedented radiant light, the original cohesive aura fractured, like a butterfly breaking from its cocoon, transforming into world-opening chaotic thunder.
In this instant, Lei Chen was no longer his previous subdued self, his hair and beard bristled sharply, thunder light exploded in his eyes, and both palms pushed against the void, invoking the power of space-ti laws, blocking before Chu Zheng, forming an indestructible Thunder Immortal Shield.
At the sa mont!
Understanding the terror of their opponent, knowing rely relying on burning their own Origin was not enough to fully resist, Xi Youyue and Lei Chen spared no reserves!
“Rise!”
Xi Youyue danced her sleeves, a silver Immortal Flag flowing with starlight and emanating boundless space-ti aura flew from her hand, swelling against the wind and suddenly shrouding a large expanse of sky above Chu Zheng.
The Immortal Flag flapped audibly, sending down endless chains ford by condensed space-ti laws, forming an array, frantically reinforcing the layered barriers she had previously set.
“Co!”
Lei Chen roared lowly, an ancient, weighty Bronze Jade Ring flew from his hand. On the ring, chaotic thunder patterns shone, its aura nacing enough to suppress all heavens and bind all laws.
The ring spun rapidly in the void, quickly transforming into a celestial ring spanning the Star River, hovering before the Thunder Immortal Shield.
Buzz—
Imdiately followed by a twelve-story exquisite white jade tower emanating boundless immortal light flying from Xi Youyue’s brow!
The tower swelled against the wind, each floor etched with distinctly different Immortal Arrays, containing space-ti, gathering all surrounding starlight into a magnificent starlight stream, akin to a solidified river of ti, winding across the tower’s body.
The Immortal Tower thunderously descended, pressing upon the core starry sky where Chu Zheng stood, casting down imnse Immortal Dao Power and space-ti law to form an indestructible final protection.
In an instant, the Immortal Flag shaded the heavens, the ring spanned the void, the tower suppressed existence.
At the brink of life and death, two Great Immortal Emperors not only burned their own Origin but also, sparing no expense, simultaneously wielded several powerful Emperor Weapons from their reserves, converting their lifeti cultivation, all their foundation, into a protective copper wall and iron barrier for Chu Zheng.
The Martial Ancestor’s eyes showed no ripples, expression indifferent, as he raised his hand covered in Blood Jade Armor, pressing remotely towards the direction of the three.
Boom!
Instantaneously, the gigantic palm of the Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor engulfed by Ti Power had already fallen upon the heads of the three.
The Immortal Flag shading the sky shook fiercely, the fallen space-ti chains breaking inch by inch, the celestial ring cracked, its light dimd, emitting groaning hums under intolerable weight.
The eleven-layer Immortal Tower, capable of suppressing a Half Ancestor, trembled violently, its immortal light flashing erratically, while the river of starlight flowing around it nearly dried up.
The layers of moonlight barriers painstakingly constructed by Xi Youyue shattered soundlessly like illusions, the finely crafted space-ti Talismatic Patterns lting before absolute power, unable even to delay for a mont.
The Thunder Immortal Shield, condensed by Lei Chen invoking all heavens’ laws, upon eting the Martial Ancestor’s palm imprint, emitted intolerable mournful howls, the surface quickly fractured, and exploded in an instant!
The jade at his waist, its light instantly dimd, uttered a wail, cracking with several fractures.
Puff! Puff!
The two Great Immortal Emperors at the zenith of Immortal Emperor Perfection seed as though struck head-on by an invisible Ancient Divine Mountain, their Immortal Bodies shattered, spewing blood, figures like kites with broken strings, instantly blown out from the collapsing void, their Immortal Bodies trembling violently amidst the terrifying aftermath, their surrounding Immortal Light and Dao Rhythms in complete disarray.
The three Emperor Weapons previously sacrificed scattered and fell, the dazzling Immortal Light fading visibly to the naked eye.
The Martial Ancestor’s power was too formidable, so overwhelming it was simply beyond what the two Great Immortal Emperors could withstand, even after burning their Origins and wielding several Emperor Weapons, they were defeated so swiftly, with barely any suspense.
Ancestral Realm was already at a different level than ordinary living creatures.
A Dao Ancestor was almost the embodint of the Great Universe’s Heavenly Fate.
However, ultimately, this blow was blocked by them, and Chu Zheng, under their protection, was unhard.
Chu Zheng looked up at the Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor before him, Spiritual Light flowing in his eyes, but only fragnted information was returned due to the imnse difference in cultivation.
Among this information, a familiar na was brought back.
Heavenly Punishnt.
Chu Zheng took a deep breath, his taut expression relaxed, before the Ancestral Realm, no matter how many aces up his sleeve, it was already a dead end.
Lives are as chess, the Ancestral Realm is the player, taking and placing pieces, rely a thought away.
Calculating, this should be his second encounter with Heavenly Punishnt.
Last ti, Heavenly Punishnt had just broken the emperor to beco an ancestor, coming out to head to the Cosmic Edge. At that ti, if it weren’t for the Tribulation Qi forewarning him, perhaps he would have been crushed by Heavenly Punishnt’s foot.
The Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor stood with hands behind, gaze overlooking like how ants are viewed, coldly directed at the two Great Immortal Emperors, his icy voice resounded in their Seas of Consciousness:
“Tell Moonlight, if you want Chu Zheng, co take him at the Martial Hall. I await.”
Xi Youyue’s eyes were filled with horror and unwillingness, she glared steadfastly at the Heavenly Punishnt Martial Ancestor, grinding her teeth, while Lei Chen’s face was pale, facial muscles subtly twitching, eyes distinctly grave.
Heavenly Punishnt’s actions clearly intended to trade Chu Zheng for Moonlight’s entry.
Seeing the hesitation on their faces, Heavenly Punishnt’s pool-like eyes showed no emotional ripple, and he said indifferently:
“If in three breaths you still do not leave… then stay, I will find soone else to deliver the ssage.”
“Go!”
Lei Chen sharply shouted, his voice hoarse yet decisive, as he grasped the unwilling Xi Youyue, the jade at his waist cracked, but again emitted a faint Immortal Radiance, enveloping them, transforming into a stream tearing across the Star River, fleeing towards the Immortal Domain without looking back.
In this quest, they had done their utmost; an Ancestral Realm intervening had already broken the rules, it was not their fault.
Now, what they had to do was quickly relay the ssage back, and what actions to take thereafter would require the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor’s own decision.
