Prove Dao by Force with the Human Race's Killing Intent

Having made up his mind, Chu Yan instantly unleashed a sky-high killing intent.

Whoosh...

The killing intent turned into lightning, swirling around Chu Yan.

"What... What is Chu Yan trying to do? His killing intent is so powerful."

"Could he be planning to kill Taiqing?"

Holy crap...

Countless powerful beings in the Primordial World immediately thought of that possibility, but then dismissed it.

"No, that's impossible. Chu Yan is merely a mortal. He relies on nothing but the Human Race Will and Human Race Destiny. Although the Human Race's Destiny is flourishing, it's still impossible for him to kill Taiqing. Taiqing possesses the merit of Pangu's creation of the world."

"Exactly. Taiqing wields the Innate Supreme Treasure Taiji Diagram and is also the Dao Ancestor's first disciple. How could Chu Yan possibly kill him?"

The countless mighty beings speculated among themselves, but the next moment, Chu Yan gave them their answer.

"Rise for me—"

Rumble...

The terrifying will of hundreds of thousands of humans instantly surged, and a fearsome Golden Giant rose from the ground.

In an instant, boundless killing intent shot straight toward the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Even Saint Nuwa was frightened by this terrifying killing intent.

"Is Chu Yan really going to kill Senior Brother Taiqing?"

Yuanshi, Tongtian, Jieyin and Zhunti, Nuwa, and even Hongjun all turned their attention here.

They watched as the Human Race Will gathered and transformed into a Golden Giant. The killing intent of every human surged forth, shaking the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

"Condense for me—"

Chu Yan reached out with one hand. A long spear appeared in the Golden Giant's grasp, its entire shaft blood red.

The instant the spear appeared, the clear sky for thousands of miles darkened.

Rumble...

Terrifying killing intent spread out from the scarlet spear.

"This... This... The God Slaying Spear? How could it be the God Slaying Spear?"

Feeling the boundless killing intent radiating from the blood-red spear, all the mighty beings stumbled backward in fright.

That was the God Slaying Spear. Even a Sage would suffer if they encountered it.

"Damn it, the God Slaying Spear?"

Saint Nuwa's expression changed dramatically. Hadn't the God Slaying Spear disappeared after the Dao-Demon Conflict? How had it ended up in Chu Yan's hands?

"No, that's not the God Slaying Spear."

Tongtian's eyes snapped open, and two beams of light shot straight toward Chu Yan.

"This is a Killing Spear formed from the Human Race's killing intent. It represents the Human Race's will to kill."

As the wielder of the Immortal Slaying Four Swords, Tongtian was all too familiar with such killing intent.

"What?"

Tongtian's words instantly changed the expressions of countless mighty beings.

They immediately looked toward the Primordial Human Race, and what they saw chilled them to the bone.

Every member of the Primordial Human Race, from the elderly to the children, had killing intent in their eyes as they stared at Taiqing.

There was no doubt about it: the entire Human Race was determined to finish Taiqing off.

Chu Yan reached out with one hand. The Human Race Killing Spear became a streak of red light and shot toward Taiqing.

"Taiqing, prepare to die—"

Boom...

The void resounded with an explosion. Taiqing's expression changed dramatically.

In the next instant, Chu Yan had appeared right in front of him.

An unprecedented sense of death enveloped him.

"So fast!"

Bang—

The power of a single spear strike sent Taiqing plummeting into the Primordial World, intense pain throbbing in his chest.

"Chu Yan, you dare kill me—?"

Taiqing couldn't believe Chu Yan would actually try to kill him.

Had the Innate Supreme Treasure not protected him automatically, Chu Yan's attack would have pierced straight through his chest.

He wouldn't have died, but that was the Human Race Killing Spear, carrying the Human Race's boundless karmic burden.

Chu Yan stood proudly in the air, radiating dominance.

"There's nothing I wouldn't dare do. Anyone who dares target the Human Race, whoever they are, I'll kill them. Even if you're a Sage, I'd still dare to kill you."

As his words fell, Chu Yan charged again. A streak of red light flashed, and in the next instant he was a thousand miles away.

"Taiqing, your life is mine—"

"Taiji Diagram!"

At the critical moment, Taiqing brought out the Taiji Diagram. It instantly blazed with light and blocked his path.

Whirr—

As the two forces collided, countless streams of terrifying energy scattered in every direction.

Taiqing expended his magic power, while Chu Yan frantically burned through the Human Race Destiny.

They remained locked in a stalemate for a long time, leveling everything around them.

Boundless, terrifying killing intent spread throughout the Primordial World.

"Taiqing, die—"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

In an instant, Chu Yan's entire body was engulfed in roaring flames.

"Look! Chu Yan is burning the Human Race Destiny. He's going all in against Taiqing!"

"Chu Yan really dares to kill Taiqing. He's a lunatic."

Watching the battle, the countless mighty beings were all gripped with terror.

A race that had only emerged a hundred years ago could actually unleash such terrifying power.

"Chu Yan, you bastard!"

Taiqing roared in fury and counterattacked at once.

A terrifying shockwave erupted, and smoke billowed everywhere.

Pfft—

Chu Yan spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying a thousand miles.

Countless living beings drew in a sharp breath at the sight.

"With the Innate Supreme Treasure Taiji Diagram in hand, Taiqing is already invincible. His defenses can't be broken. Chu Yan can't win."

"Wait, look! Chu Yan doesn't seem to have given up."

All the living beings looked over and saw that Chu Yan was burning through the Human Race Destiny even more fiercely.

The Killing Spear in his hand grew darker and sharper.

Wave after wave of spear light surged more than a hundred miles, pulverizing everything nearby with its terrifying killing intent.

"Has Chu Yan gone mad? He's burning through the Human Race Destiny like this. Does he not care about his life?"

"Lunatic! This damn guy is a lunatic!"

The countless mighty beings watched in terror, their hair standing on end.

Chu Yan really had gone insane.

"Wait."

Tongtian's expression suddenly changed, then filled with shock and admiration.

"Chu Yan is indeed burning through the Human Race Destiny, but the Human Race's aura is growing stronger and stronger."

"What's going on?"

Tongtian couldn't help but admire him.

"Chu Yan truly possesses tremendous resolve and wisdom. He's actually managed this: using Destiny as fuel to temper the Human Race Will. He intends to forge a Human Race Saint Tool, a Killing Spear. Once it's successfully forged, the Human Race won't need Destiny anymore. With nothing but weapons in their hands, they'll be able to carve out a place for themselves."

"What? Doesn't that mean..."

Everyone thought of a possibility they hardly dared to imagine.

In the Primordial World, everyone needed Destiny.

Becoming a Sage required Destiny and merit.

Even a race needed Destiny to survive. Without it, they would perish.

But there was only one way to live without needing Destiny—and as long as one survived, one would grow ever stronger.

"Prove Dao by Force?"

Rumble...

Those four words surfaced in everyone's minds, followed by the shock of a thunderbolt from a clear sky.

The countless mighty beings' expressions changed dramatically.

In the Palace of Purple Heaven, Hongjun was instantly shocked.

"Damn it, Chu Yan actually intends to take the path of Prove Dao by Force. If he succeeds, the Primordial World will lose its Protagonist of Heaven and Earth, and the General Trend will inevitably change."

Hongjun could no longer sit still. If the Human Race proved the Dao by force, what need would it have for him?

As long as Chu Yan succeeded in proving the Dao, a single punch would be enough to shatter the Heavenly Dao.

Hongjun was about to step in and stop him when he suddenly sensed something.

"Since you're so fond of burning the Human Race Destiny, then go ahead and burn it. The path of Prove Dao by Force isn't that easy to take."

Across the Primordial World, the countless mighty beings were stunned by Chu Yan's actions.

One after another, they found themselves at a loss for words. They hadn't expected Chu Yan to be so decisive.

Since all the powerful beings had come for the Human Race Destiny, he would simply burn it all away, leaving them with nothing to gain.
