Overwhelming Ji Prefecture, Shaking the World!

Silence.

Solemnity.

Horror!

Fear swept across all of Ji Prefecture like a surging tide.

Every living being in Ji Prefecture felt a bone-deep chill.

Someone had come down directly, pressing down on heaven and earth, intent on exacting vengeance on the Empress Ji.

Madness!

People could hardly believe their eyes.

Then, that terrifying golden-red light suddenly erupted. Boundless radiance surged between heaven and earth, raising waves of light ten thousand zhang high in an instant.

"Chen Yan..."

The Empress Ji stood above the royal court, her eyes fixed on the giant Dharma Form bearing down upon her.

Wherever he passed, he propped up the firmament. Vast golden radiance shot straight upward, overturning the endless moonlit night as layers of clouds rolled through the sky, carrying an unstoppable momentum.

Ji Yanqing cried out. She could feel it—that was the aura of life and death.

Yet Chen Yan showed none of the signs of advancing into the Calamity Light Realm.

Strange.

Terrifying.

Astonishing!

They stared in shock, stunned.

"You've come straight to my domain, to destroy me and punish me for my crimes, claiming to act on Heaven's behalf?!"

"Chen Yan!" She gritted her teeth.

"Utterly arrogant!!!"

At her low growl, the firmament split apart in an instant. Roiling flames of light burst forth alongside boundless life-and-death aura, and the seven marshals turned into streaks of light and surged toward him.

Faster than the eye could follow.

Chen Yan was extraordinary, and signs of his future
