The Suppression of an Incomplete Heavenly Dao
As the golden finger pressed down, the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost's bones cracked and popped, feeling as if it were about to collapse under the immense pressure.
Although his cultivation level recovered to the Early Integrated Body after using the secret technique, his physical body was still fragile. The effects of the long years could not be directly erased by this secret technique.
Under the oppressive force of the Metal Spirit Cloud-Piercing Finger, his physical body would have shattered long ago if he hadn't used his own Principle to support it.
Even so, his physical body still found it difficult to withstand.
A ruthless glint appeared in the blood-red eyes of the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost. His four hands continuously formed hand seals, and dark mist swirled around him. The next moment, ferocious arms appeared in front of him, forming a dark shield above his head.
Boom!!
The golden finger landed on the bone shield, followed by a booming sound.
The earthquake caused a crater that sank tens of meters deep, forming a large crater nearly a kilometer in diameter.
In the area where the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost stood, cracks spread like a spider web, and more and more spatial rifts appeared in the surrounding sky.
The violent shockwave transformed into a ring of aftershocks, spreading in all directions. Wherever it passed, all protruding rocks and trees were completely leveled, and the ground seemed to have been cleaned.
Qin Nanyue, watching from afar, also felt a chill run down her spine. Fortunately, she was protected by a shield formed by Lu Yang using the Power of Principle, and was not harmed.
Without this protective shield, she would probably have been wiped out by the aftershocks long ago.
The aftershocks that even tore space apart would leave no trace of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, let alone Golden Core Realm cultivator. Even Nascent Soul Realm cultivator might not be able to withstand such aftershocks!
Not far from here, streaks of black energy rapidly approached from the sky; these were the sleeping powerhouses from various regions of the shattered world.
When they met each other and saw each other's withered, skeletal appearance, they stared at each other for a moment before bursting into laughter.
"Fellow Daoists, it's been many years! Greetings!"
"Old Ghost Dongshan, I didn't expect you to still be alive after all these years?"
"Hmph! Even if you die, I won't!"
"It's a pity that in this vast Heavenly Azure Realm, only a few old folks like us are left..."
As they talked, the group continued flying towards the Mystic Dark Sword Sect.
Just then, they felt an incredibly terrifying force soaring into the sky from the direction of the Mystic Dark Sword Sect. Everyone looked up at the sky.
Everyone immediately saw an enormous golden finger reaching downwards from within the churning clouds.
Even from a great distance, the lines on these fingers were still clearly visible, and the profound mysteries of the Metal Dao Principle emanating from them caused everyone's expression to change.
"The Metal Dao Principle? The Metal Dao Principle at the Domain Level!"
"Hiss... The two sword masters of the Mystic Dark Sword Sect mainly cultivate the Water Dao and the Sword Dao, the Metal Dao... Which fellow Daoist is that?"
"Judging from this aura, you are probably a fellow Daoist at the Integrated Body Realm. However... after such a long period of time, our origins have weakened to the extreme. Let alone the Integrated Body Realm, we probably can't even exert the strength of the Void Refinement Realm. How can you maintain your strength, fellow Daoist?"
"Go check it out quickly!"
"I wonder how those two sword masters are doing now? Everyone, we need to speed things up!"
"Hey... Sect Master Yun, after all these years, you still can't forget those two Mystic Dark Sword Masters? Well, those two sword masters were truly peerless back then..."
"Hahaha, Yun Xiao, look at all of us now, we're all just skeletons. I suppose those two sword masters are just bones now too~"
"..."
Although the group was chatting and laughing, the atmosphere was rather somber.
After all, they could all see that this cultivator who mainly cultivated the Metal Dao was able to use such Law Technique, which meant that he must have encountered an opponent who could make him use such Law Technique.
If they were still in their prime, they could certainly join in such a contest.
But right now, they probably have the will but not the power.
However, even so, they did not say anything about backing down.
After all, dealing with the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghosts was something they were supposed to do.
It is what every being of the Heavenly Azure Realm should do, even though the Heavenly Azure Realm has now been destroyed.
As many old monsters from the Heavenly Azure Realm rushed to the battlefield, the Qin Province disciples within the domain also saw a burst of golden light in the distance.
Because they were too far away, they couldn't see the specific scene in that direction, but it seemed as if there was an extra ray of sunlight, which made all the disciples' hearts tighten.
Since just now, the entire secret realm seems to have become different from before.
Once again, a strange low growl echoed throughout the entire secret realm, and once again, eerie black mist swept across the sky. Now, it seemed as if another sun had appeared!
"What exactly happened within the secret realm? Why have we never encountered anything like this before?"
The disciples contacted their fellow disciples via the Sound Transmission Jade Token, each intending to stick together for mutual support.
Some of the more timid or cautious disciples even found a safe spot and stopped exploring.
They kept their eyes on the direction from which the golden light burst forth, and took out talismans for leaving the secret realm, intending to leave immediately if anything seemed amiss.
Although Mu Yunxue, Jiang Shiqing, and Lin Ying felt more confident because Lu Yang was in the secret realm, they still sensed that something was amiss.
What made the cultivators in the secret realm most uneasy was that all the Demon Beasts they encountered showed expressions of fear.
However, the number of demons and monsters that were rarely seen before has increased significantly.
All disciples within the secret realm can see the wandering ghosts in the wilderness, the White Bone Demon lingering deep in the mountains, and the corpses walking in the forest...
Click click click...
A series of shattering sounds rang out. Under the suppression of the golden finger, the black protective shield formed by the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost showed cracks, and the Principle Runes on it flickered erratically.
Just then, a ray of cool, silvery moonlight fell from the sky, enveloping the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost.
The radiance of the moon carries the power to purify evil and suppress demons, making it a nemesis to yin and evil spirits.
Faced with the Grand Yin Principle at the domain level, even if Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost restored himself to the Integrated Body Realm, he still could not resist it. Instantly, his body seemed to be doused with boiling water, making a hissing sound.
Strands of black energy emanated from his body and from the collapsing protective barrier, disappearing into the radiance.
Under the oppressive silver moonlight, the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost let out a low growl filled with pain.
The next moment, the black shield shattered, and the golden finger landed heavily on the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost.
Boom!!
Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost's body was pressed heavily to the ground. Cracks appeared on his magnificent body, his bones shattered, and viscous black liquid splashed out. His aura, which had reached the Integrated Body Realm, dropped rapidly and soon returned to the Nascent Soul level.
This attack severely injured the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost!
Even with secret techniques, he could no longer maintain it.
After this attack, Lu Yang once again condensed a golden finger and pointed it towards the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost.
Seeing this, the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost's blood-red eyes flashed with ferocity as it roared, "Human! You want to kill me? You won't get away with it! Now that the Heavenly Azure Realm has been destroyed, without the complete suppression of the Heavenly Dao, my race's experts are not so easily sealed away!"
He didn't even try to defend against the golden finger; instead, he formed hand Method Formula with his four hands and roared, "Open for me!"
As the Yin Sha Heavenly Ghost unleashed his Law Technique, his body seemed unable to withstand the overwhelming power, and was directly torn apart, turning into black mist and splattering slime.
This force, however, seemed to ripple outwards in an invisible wave, spreading in all directions.
