The booming shout resounded across countless miles, echoing endlessly through heaven and earth.

Yuan Feng, Ancestor Dragon, and Ancestor Qilin were the first to rush out of the void. They brought forth their respective treasures and launched an assault on Shen Ni.

"You led the Ferocious Beast Clan in bringing disaster upon all living beings and harming heaven and earth. Today, we shall represent the Heavenly Dao and slay you here!"

Shen Ni held his spear in one hand and pointed it at the three of them, his eyes filled with contempt and disdain.

"A loach, a little chick, and a little dog dare to shout at me? You truly do not know whether you live or die!"

"I know there are more of you than this."

"Whoever else is hiding nearby, get the hell out here!"

"I have no interest in playing hide-and-seek with a bunch of cowards who hide their heads and show their tails!"

As Shen Ni shouted coldly, the aura around him surged explosively. The pressure of Mixed Origin Golden Immortal Perfection swept across countless miles in an instant.

Slaughter and destruction, death and battle—four Laws manifested across heaven and earth in an instant.

Vast and boundless Destruction Qi, so immense that even time and space could scarcely contain it!

Pure killing intent gathered from the resentment of all living beings, enough to drive Great Luo beings mad!

Netherworld Death Qi formed from the corpses and souls of the Ten Thousand Races he had slaughtered!

The Battle-Heaven Fight-Earth True Intent Shen Ni had condensed through countless battles over dozens of Eons!

In an instant, it enveloped the surrounding countless miles, drawing dense Scarlet Black Clouds together as dark purple lightning raged wildly within them, releasing soul-shaking roars.

"Attack!"

Luo Hou looked at Shen Ni, who wielded the God Slaying Spear and grew fiercer the longer he fought against the Three Ancestors. Boundless Fierce Fiendish Qi rapidly gathered around him, his aura grew increasingly heavy, and the bottleneck in his cultivation gradually loosened.

Luo Hou immediately gave Hong Jun an urgent warning.

"Shen Ni's aura has already reached its peak. For the past thousand years, slaughter has never ceased across the Primordial Land, and the rate at which fiendish qi is born has already exceeded that of the past by several hundred times."

"If we do not stop him now, he may truly break through into the Realm of Hunyuan Great Luo!"

Since Hong Jun was one of the main figures responsible for organizing this crusade, everyone nearby immediately turned their eyes toward him.

"Fellow Daoist Shi Chen, Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, you must seize the opportunity and suppress him without delay."

"Otherwise, we will truly be in danger."

With that, Hong Jun brought forth the All Heavens Celebration Cloud, called upon Luo Hou, Yin Yang, Qian Kun, Five Elements, and the others, and charged out from the void to attack Shen Ni.

"Hahaha... I knew it was you, you little Stink Bug, who was behind this!"

Shen Ni looked at the incoming crowd. Not only was there not the slightest trace of fear in his eyes, he even laughed and mocked Hong Jun.

"In the entire Primordial World, only you could gather so many people to surround and kill me through sheer shamelessness."

"Unfortunately, you were too cautious and waited far too long."

"I have already gathered enough Calamity Evil Qi, and more than seventy percent of all Myriad Spirits have already died!"

"The bottleneck of Grand Luo of Hunyuan has long ceased to be a problem for me."

As he spoke, Shen Ni's aura abruptly soared. The unwillingness and resentment of all living beings that filled heaven and earth instantly rushed toward him.

"The reason I delayed my breakthrough was to wait for all of you to show yourselves, so that you could witness what true despair is!"

"Celebrate! I, Shen Ni, shall become the first—and also the last—being in the Primordial World to break through into Hunyuan Grand Luo Golden Immortal!"

"And you are nothing but rats in the gutter. Other than witnessing me prove the Dao of Hunyuan and serving as sacrifices after my breakthrough, there is nothing you can do!!"

Hong Jun watched Shen Ni's arrogant display, and a sharp glint rose in his eyes.

"That may not be so!"

With a deep, furious shout, Hong Jun suddenly controlled the All Heavens Celebration Cloud and sent it flying into the Scarlet Black Clouds. He poured all his mana into the treasure, raising its power to its utmost limit in an instant.

Suspending this treasure above one's head granted one an innate position of invincibility, but that was merely one of its functions.

Its other ability—Repel All Evils—was the true key to why he dared to plot Shen Ni's death.

As the All Heavens Celebration Cloud unleashed its power, five-colored divine radiance illuminated the heavens, while the music of the eight celestial tones echoed throughout the universe.

Countless Golden Lamps, Golden Lotuses, jeweled pendants, and Hanging Beads poured down from the sky like water dripping from eaves, endless and unceasing, spewing forth from the All Heavens Celebration Cloud.

They purified and dispersed the Scarlet Black Clouds spanning countless miles, allowing the land that had been shrouded in darkness to once again return to the embrace of the blazing sun.

As someone who wished to use Calamity Evil Qi and the resentment of Myriad Spirits to prove the Dao of Hunyuan, Shen Ni remained under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao so long as he had not transcended heaven and earth and attained the body of a Hunyuan Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

Although the current Primordial Wilderness was still incomplete, and examples of heavenly lightning striking those who broke through in cultivation were exceedingly rare,

For those burdened by Sin, the likelihood of suffering Heaven and Earth Thunder Punishment during a breakthrough rose geometrically.

At the same time, the more Karmic Force and Sin one carried, the more powerful the thunder punishment they would suffer.

For someone like Shen Ni, who sought to slaughter the Primordial Wilderness in exchange for proving the Dao of Hunyuan, heaven and earth regarded him as an enemy that Heaven and Earth Thunder Punishment would pursue without rest until death.

The Scarlet Black Clouds Shen Ni had gathered across countless miles were meant to block heaven and earth's perception.

As long as he could endure until he broke through into Grand Luo of Hunyuan, then given the current strength of heaven and earth, it would be utterly impossible to strike him dead.

"Rumble rumble, crack crack..."

"Damn Stink Bug, do not think you will succeed!"

Watching the rapidly gathering Heaven and Earth Thunder Punishment, Shen Ni was furious to the extreme.

He had never expected Hong Jun to possess such an ability!

Yet the situation no longer allowed him the luxury of anger. He poured all his mana into the God Slaying Spear and forcibly drove back the Innate Sacred and Demon God Reincarnations besieging him.

He immediately attempted to gather the Scarlet Black Clouds once more, hoping to block heaven and earth's perception and make one final attempt at breaking through into Grand Luo of Hunyuan.

"Now! Attack at once!"

Seeing this, Hong Jun immediately shouted into the void, calling upon Yang Mei and Shi Chen to move and suppress Shen Ni.

Since they had accepted payment, the two naturally would not go back on their word. The instant they emerged from the void, they directly controlled their respective Companion Supreme Treasures and forcibly froze the time and space around Shen Ni.

For more than ten breaths, he could not move even the slightest bit!

And heaven and earth naturally would not let go of even the smallest opportunity to destroy a vile and wicked creature like Shen Ni.

The instant he was frozen, the Heaven and Earth Thunder Punishment rapidly condensed and took shape. Like a torrential downpour, it unleashed all its divine might upon Shen Ni.

"No!!"

As he watched the Heaven and Earth Thunder Punishment pour toward him, Shen Ni could only stare in stunned horror and let out a desperate roar in his heart.

Beneath the lightning that filled the sky, Shen Ni, who had already reached Half-Step Mixed Origin Great Luo, saw his cultivation begin to plummet. In merely a few breaths, it had fallen back to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

By the time he regained the ability to move, his physical body had already turned to ash. Only his battered soul, still gripping the God Slaying Spear, remained where it had been!

"Kill!"

Hong Jun and Luo Hou had waited for this opportunity for far more than a day or two.

They immediately controlled the All Heavens Celebration Cloud and the Four Swords of Zhuxian, launching their final killing strike at Shen Ni.

In an instant, countless Golden Lamps, Golden Lotuses, jeweled pendants, and Hanging Beads fell from the sky, transforming into a dazzling Star River that carried countless sword shadows and engulfed Shen Ni's remnant soul.

"You damned, despicable, shameless bastards! You actually defeated me through such a method!"

"I refuse to accept this! I refuse to accept this!"

Amid repeated desperate roars, Shen Ni's remnant soul completely turned to ash.

The God Slaying Spear also fell into Luo Hou's hands according to the distribution arrangement agreed upon long ago.

And with Shen Ni's death, the Ferocious Beast Clan had become grasshoppers after autumn, no longer capable of posing the slightest threat to the Primordial World.
