Guang Chengzi, Take This Move!

Inside the Main Hall, Guang Chengzi's face was livid, his aura in disarray. The face he usually presented as gentle and refined was now twisted like that of a vicious ghost.

He had fled.

He, the foremost of the Sect of Elucidation's Twelve Golden Immortals, the Saint's direct chief disciple, had actually been frightened into fleeing in disgrace by some wild immortal who had appeared from who knew where!

What utter humiliation!

It was an insult even harder for him to bear than being slapped across the face a hundred times!

The more Guang Chengzi thought about it, the more furious he became. The rage in his chest nearly burst forth in tangible form, threatening to burn the entire Jade Void Palace to ashes.

That man named Lin Feng, along with those two shameless, self-degrading female immortals of the Interception Sect!

They had to die!

Only by dying in the most painful, most humiliating manner could they cleanse the shame he had suffered today!

"Wretch, how dare you humiliate me!"

Grinding his teeth, Guang Chengzi abruptly rose and strode toward the depths of the Jade Void Palace, toward the forbidden ground shrouded in Chaos Qi all year round.

He wanted to see his master and ask Yuanshi Tianzun to issue a decree, allowing him to rightfully lead the Sect of Elucidation immortals and flatten that insignificant Three Immortal Islands!

Yet as soon as he came within a hundred zhang of the forbidden ground, an invisible yet irresistible gentle force lightly pushed him back.

At the same time, a majestic, boundless Saint's Dao Sound devoid of all emotion rang within his primordial spirit.

"The tribulation is approaching. You shall quietly recite the Yellow Court, enter seclusion, and cultivate diligently. You are not to leave and become entangled in karma."

It was his master's voice!

But those words were like a basin of icy water poured directly over Guang Chengzi's blazing fury.

He was not allowed to leave?

Guang Chengzi stood frozen in place. The anger on his face turned to astonishment, then finally became a dark, vicious grimace.

He understood. His master was warning him not to actively provoke trouble.

But he could not swallow this grievance!

The pride of being a Saint's disciple and the dignity of being the foremost of the Twelve Golden Immortals made it impossible for him to pretend nothing had happened.

After standing there for a long while, a flash of mad ruthlessness passed through Guang Chengzi's eyes.

His master would not let him personally take risks for fear of becoming entangled in karma, but surely he could still give them a lesson they would never forget across billions of miles of void?

As long as he did not leave Kunlun Mountain, no matter how great the karma was, it could not implicate him!

Having made up his mind, Guang Chengzi turned and left without seeking further instructions.

He went straight to the Sect of Elucidation's treasure vault.

"Senior Brother Guang Chengzi?"

The several disciples guarding the vault hurriedly bowed in greeting, their eyes full of respect.

"By Master's order, I have come to receive a treasure to punish the insolent fools of the East Sea."

Without changing expression, Guang Chengzi casually fabricated an excuse. His tone was stern and brooked no doubt.

How could the guarding disciples dare question him? They promptly opened the vault gates.

Guang Chengzi walked straight inside. His gaze swept over rows upon rows of dazzling spiritual treasures before finally stopping on a small apricot-yellow banner floating at the deepest part of the vault, wrapped in layer upon layer of restrictions.

The Pangu Banner!

Of course, it was only an imitation.

It was an Acquired Merit Spiritual Treasure that Yuanshi Tianzun had forged in imitation of the true heaven-opening supreme treasure, the Pangu Banner. Though its power was less than one hundred-millionth of the original, using it against a mere handful of Grand Unity Golden Immortals was like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.

Greed and burning desire flashed in Guang Chengzi's eyes as he carefully took out this imitation Pangu Banner.

With the banner in hand, his confidence instantly swelled. It was as if he could already see the Three Immortal Islands reduced to dust with a wave of the banner.

"Hmph. Do things that do not know their place deserve for me to act personally? They are not even worth soiling my hands!"

Guang Chengzi snorted coldly and left the treasure vault.

He did not stop there. Instead, he gathered Chi Jingzi, Taiyi Zhenren, Huanglong Zhenren, and the other fellow disciples, embellishing his "experience" at the Three Immortal Islands with great exaggeration.

Naturally, he portrayed his being frightened into retreat as a strategic withdrawal after the other side had relied on superior numbers and launched a despicable sneak attack, all so that he would not disgrace his master's lineage.

"How outrageous! How dare a mere side branch of the Interception Sect act so arrogantly!"

"Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, this cannot be allowed to pass! They must learn that the Sect of Elucidation's dignity cannot be challenged!"

"That is right! They should be taught a bloody lesson!"

After hearing this, the Sect of Elucidation Golden Immortals were indeed all filled with righteous indignation, united in hatred of the enemy.

In their eyes, those Furred and Horned creatures, those Born of Water and Eggs from the Interception Sect, were not even worthy of carrying their shoes. Yet now they had dared bully their senior brother. How could this be tolerated?

"Junior brothers, calm yourselves."

Guang Chengzi waved a hand and said with feigned magnanimity, "Master has ordered us not to descend the mountain lightly. However, punishing petty villains and preserving the Sect of Elucidation's honor are also our duties. Today, I shall bring out this imitation Pangu Banner. Together with you junior brothers, I will perform a ritual across the void and give the Three Immortal Islands a small punishment, so they may learn the immensity of heaven and earth!"

Hearing that they had an ultimate weapon like the imitation Pangu Banner, everyone became even more confident and eagerly voiced their approval.

The group surrounded Guang Chengzi and made their way to the enormous plaza before the Jade Void Palace.

Guang Chengzi tossed the imitation Pangu Banner into the air. Chanting under his breath and forming profound hand seals, he began to channel his magical power.

The other Golden Immortals also took up their positions, continuously pouring their magical power into the banner.

Buzz—!

The imitation Pangu Banner expanded in the wind, instantly growing to a hundred zhang in size. Chaos energy flowed across its surface as terrifying power of the Law of Severance began to gather, stirring even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth throughout Kunlun Mountain into turmoil!

Streams of visible Chaos sword qi condensed upon the banner, locking onto a certain point above the East Sea billions of miles away.

A cruel, delighted smile appeared on Guang Chengzi's face.

It was as though he could already hear the despairing wails of those three bitches as the Three Immortal Islands were destroyed.

Yet at that very instant—

On the Three Immortal Islands.

Lin Feng, who sat cross-legged and had just completely mastered his new divine ability, suddenly raised his head.

His gaze seemed to pierce through endless time and space, landing directly upon that immortal sacred land wreathed in mist and clouds—Kunlun Mountain.

A curve of absolute icy cold formed at the corner of his lips.

"Fool who does not know his place."

The three faint words left his mouth, yet carried a chill that made the temperature around him plummet.

At his side, Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao had been watching him with worshipful expressions, chattering away in discussion. Startled by the sudden icy aura, they immediately fell silent.

"Master?"

Bi Xiao spoke cautiously, a trace of confusion in her beautiful eyes.

Lin Feng did not turn around. He merely held out his hand.

"Lend me the scissors."

His calm tone made it sound as though he were borrowing some insignificant trinket.

Bi Xiao froze for a moment, then, without the slightest hesitation, respectfully presented the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors that she treasured as dearly as her life.

"Yes, Master."

Though she did not know what her master intended to do, excitement and anticipation inexplicably welled up within her.

Her master was going to act!

Lin Feng accepted the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors. They felt cool in his hand.

Sensing the Law of Severance contained within them, then glancing toward Kunlun Mountain, disdain flashed through his eyes.

They wanted to compete with him in severance?

That was like showing off one's axe before Lu Ban or wielding a blade before Guan Yu.

He could not even be bothered to stand.

Still seated cross-legged, he held the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors and slowly infused them with the new divine ability he had just comprehended, one that fused the power of formations with the power of severance.

Buzz!

The Golden Flood Dragon Scissors shuddered violently and let out an incomparably excited hum!

They sensed it—a power of the same origin, yet countless times more advanced, purer, and more terrifying than their own source!

Empowered by that force, the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors began to change. They no longer took the form of two flood dragons, instead becoming a purer, more condensed pair of golden divine scissors that seemed to be formed from light itself!

Lin Feng raised his hand.

Toward Kunlun Mountain, he made a distant snip!

The movement was casual and effortless.

Yet the instant that snip descended!

The entire Primordial World seemed to freeze at that moment!

The golden divine light did not tear apart space or stir wind and thunder. The instant it burst from the scissor blades, it simply ignored every barrier of time and space and appeared directly above the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain!

At the same time.

A bone-chilling voice resounded throughout the Kunlun Mountain range and even exploded directly in the depths of every living being's primordial spirit!

"Guang Chengzi, take this move!"

On the plaza, Guang Chengzi had been wearing a savage grin as he prepared to wave the banner. His expression instantly froze!

He abruptly looked up, and when he saw that golden divine light piercing through heaven and earth, his pupils shrank to pinpoints!

What was that?!

An indescribable terror from the deepest depths of his soul, like a burst dam flooding its banks, instantly drowned all his senses!

Before that golden divine light, the imitation Pangu Banner in his hand was like a ridiculous toy! All the Chaos sword qi gathered upon it could not even struggle before the supreme might that severed all things, and were directly crushed into nothingness!

"No... impossible!"

Guang Chengzi let out a hysterical scream, his voice filled with utter terror and disbelief.

Chi Jingzi, Taiyi Zhenren, and the other Sect of Elucidation Golden Immortals were even paler than death. Their bodies shook like sieves, and they could not even remain standing before collapsing to the ground.

They looked upward like mortals witnessing the end of the world, their eyes containing nothing but that slowly descending golden divine light—the embodiment of absolute death!

Crack!
