Firepower Barrage

The universe is not silent; it is filled with Heavenly Tribulations everywhere, with various lightning bolts falling, and cries of agony and shouts echoing. Countless beings are dying in this Heavenly Tribulation.

From a distance, the ancient stars surrounding the Eternal Star Domain have become a dead silent wasteland. The land has been sunken, filled with lava, and thick smoke billows, painting a hellish scene.

Ten thousand feet of lightning radiance blazes, illuminating everything. Now, everyone is focused on resisting the Heavenly Tribulation and has no time to pay attention to Xu Changqing.

But Xu Changqing has no intention of letting them go. Carrying the Saint's Heavenly Punishment and wielding the Bone Saber, he charges directly into the sea of lightning. Hundreds of millions of lightning bolts shuttle through the steel jungle like dragons.

"Clang!"

A fierce saber light erupts again. The Bone Saber draws the Chaos Divine Thunder from the heavens, and the Saber Intent overturns all the Mechas and Spaceships in front of it, sending countless steel fragments falling.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Xu Changqing moves with incredible speed, his expressionless face weaving through the dense metal wreckage. Every time he disappears, a series of explosions and cries for help can be heard.

He understands that now that he has triggered the Heavenly Tribulation, the Great Sages or Saint Kings hiding in the shadows dare not make a move, nor even reveal a hint of their aura.

Otherwise, once their aura is revealed, they will face their own Great Sage Tribulation.

Now, with millions of people undergoing tribulation together, the sky has vanished, filled with lightning. The entire world is a vast expanse of white.

The mortals of the Eternal Star Domain tremble and hide in their homes, while the younger generation and those with cultivation levels silently look up at the sky.

"Boom, whoosh..."

The people of the Eternal Star Domain see it: a streak of red light once again cuts through the white world, appearing extremely dazzling.

In a city called Fantian City, all living beings look up and witness a terrifying scene.

It is a spear carrying blazing firelight, its banner flapping in the wind. With every movement, dense ghosts descend from the sky, directly entering Fantian City.

"Dong!"

The moment the Demonic Banner touches the city, everyone is enveloped in red light, and finally, the entire city turns to ashes, and everyone dies.

These people all turn into blood light, and their souls are absorbed into the Demonic Banner.

Fantian City is the location of the Fan Family. Now it has been directly destroyed by a Great Sage artifact, with less than one in ten beings surviving.

If the Fan Family's origins were not significant, this single strike would have caused the entire Fan Family to disappear from ancient history.

But this strike also turned a city into a dead city, and the entire land was sunken.

A corner of the Eternal Star Domain breaks away and drifts in the starry sky.

A fragment of a continent in the Eternal Star Domain has been shattered!

"Ah!!!" Fan Zhantian, seeing this, is furious. Carrying the ten thousand feet of lightning tribulation, he pilots his purple battle armor, wanting to fight Xu Changqing to the death.

"You inhumane bastard, if you have the guts, don't hide!"

Fan Zhantian roars powerlessly, because his actions have turned a family that has existed for hundreds of thousands of years into a dead city.

The old ancestors dare not show themselves, because their strength is not at its peak. Even if they pilot their Mechas to join the battle, they would likely be struck to death by the Heavenly Tribulation.

This time, Xu Changqing does not dodge. He stands quietly under the Heavenly Tribulation, letting the five-colored Heavenly Tribulation bombard him, yet he remains unharmed.

When he was a Half-Saint, he could already kill Saints, let alone now that he is at the Saint realm.

"Die!" Seeing Xu Changqing not dodging, Fan Zhantian's heart leaps with joy. He pilots his purple Saint-grade Battle Armor, grips his blue greatsword with both hands, and unleashes an incredibly stunning sword strike towards Xu Changqing.

But the next moment, something that makes him dumbfounded happens.

"Clang!"

Xu Changqing holds the Bone Saber in one hand, with the other hand behind his back, his white hair fluttering, a faint cold smile on his lips. He looks at the purple battle armor with a disdainful sneer.

Clang!

The purple greatsword strikes the milky white Bone Saber, instantly erupting with brilliant light.

"One hand!"

Fan Zhantian is instantly terrified. He blocks a full-power strike from a Saint with one hand and even doesn't retreat half a step.

He grits his teeth and tries to press the greatsword down, but it won't budge.

Xu Changqing maintains the posture of supporting the greatsword with one hand, sparks continuously flying.

"Boom!"

At this moment, Saintly might approaches from the side. A blue Spaceship directly crashes towards Xu Changqing.

Moreover, dense cannons appear on its hull, absorbing the power of the Heavenly Tribulation and charging up a blazing divine light.

Xu Changqing's arm trembles, and he directly shakes off the purple Mecha in front of him. He stomps his left foot and instantly disappears from his original position. He unleashes the Heaven's Will Saber Art towards the purple Mecha.

"Chii!"

The white saber light is so inconspicuous in this blazing sea of lightning. With a bang, the purple Mecha is directly split in half.

Blood also flows into the sea of lightning in the starry sky. A golden figure the size of a fist, with an expression of pain and anger on its face.

But before it can react, it sees a dark red nail flying towards it.

Plop!

The dark red nail pierces directly into the center of the golden figure's brow, and finally, a dark light erupts.

"Ah!"

The golden little figure wailed, its shrill cries like those of a fierce ghost, making one's scalp tingle.

"Bang!"

Fan Zhantian's Primordial Spirit disintegrated in an instant, its fragments absorbed by the dark red nail, leading to his complete demise.

The dark red nail was another item obtained by Xu Changqing from a Demonic Great Sage, named the Soul Suppressing Nail, also known as the Soul Slaying Nail.

It specialized in targeting Primordial Spirits.

"The Patriarch has fallen!" a disciple of the Fan Family said, their voice trembling as they witnessed the scene.

A Saint had fallen!

In the starry sky, metal fragments and various corpses were scattered everywhere. The metal fragments turned into a blazing firelight, falling into the Eternal Star Domain, piercing its protective shield and dropping into some of the cities.

Xu Changqing was surrounded by an endless Heavenly Tribulation. By this point, he too was injured, covered in blood, with a hole in his eye socket and his clothes in tatters.

Both his front and back bore bloody holes and scorched, rotten flesh.

These were the damages inflicted by the Mechas and the Heavenly Tribulation.

Xu Changqing panted slightly, standing above everyone, bearing his Heavenly Tribulation, and coldly observing below. At a glance, although most enemies had either fled or died, many powerful individuals remained.

For instance, he sensed the presence of seven Saints.

With the boost from the Heavenly Tribulation, killing them would be even easier.

Thinking this, Xu Changqing unleashed his full power once more, stepping into the Divine Prohibition domain. The aura of a Saint erupted, his body igniting with flames, his injuries instantly healing, though his face began to look somewhat pale.

"Emperor's Fall!"

Xu Changqing wielded his Bone Saber, carrying immense lightning, activating his phenomenon, and charging directly at another Saint Mecha.

"Boom!"

The Purgatory World reappeared, along with several blurry, indistinct figures battling him. Those figures were majestic and tall, exuding an aura of invincibility.

It wasn't over yet. Xu Changqing took out various high-tech weapons obtained from Emperor Daoyan. With his Saint cultivation, he activated Saint-grade Battleships, Saint-grade Mechas, and various firearms.

Buzz!

Behind him, dense silver barrels appeared. On their muzzles were intricate Dao Patterns. As soon as they were activated, they directly absorbed the Heavenly Tribulation from above, converting it into offensive material.

In an instant, Xu Changqing felt his strength drop by five layers because he was using high-tech weapons of Saint and Half-Saint caliber.

At this moment, his terrifying divine sense controlled hundreds of Saint-level high-tech products. Behind him, a silver steel jungle emerged, all exuding the aura of Saints, Half-Saints, and those who had Severed the Dao.

A sense of weakness surged into his heart. Xu Changqing gritted his teeth slightly and continued to increase the energy output, enduring the Heavenly Tribulation while having the technological products charge up Saint-level attacks.

When a certain level was reached, the entire star-filled sky began to tremble. This strike was as if thousands of Saints were attacking together.

Everyone despaired. Even the Saint Kings hidden in the shadows swallowed hard. They couldn't imagine how Xu Changqing could support such a massive steel army.

Saints could at most control a few items of the same realm, but Xu Changqing had rows upon rows, densely packed.

Each technological weapon could unleash a Saint's attack. Such a scale of weaponry made their scalps tingle.

"How can he have so many Saint-grade items? It's impossible!"

"Unless he defeated a God and obtained all of its Inheritance and items!"

"Should we stop him?!" a Saint King said excitedly. If they didn't, after this strike, the Eternal Star Domain might directly shatter.

"How can we stop it? If we go, the Heavenly Tribulation will become even more violent, and then we will enter a place of no return," some old ancestors of the families said bitterly, their faces filled with despair.

No matter what, they couldn't. Even activating the protective shield they had left in the Eternal Star Domain wouldn't withstand the mighty Heavenly Tribulation and the residual energy waves.

"Then what do we do?"

"What else can we do? Wait for the Heavenly Tribulation to end. Otherwise, who dares to go? We are all old fellows; going would just be sending ourselves to our deaths."

The several powerful individuals hidden in the shadows fell silent. They couldn't go, and they couldn't not go. If they went, they might not even be effective before being suppressed by the Heavenly Tribulation and killed instead.

If they didn't go, they could only watch as their descendants died before their eyes, and watch as ninety percent of the beings in their families perished.

This was tormenting for them.

"Kill!" Xu Changqing shouted coldly, his gaze utterly indifferent, looking at everyone in the Eternal Star Domain with not a trace of pity.

In the midst of this battle, he had forgotten Emperor Daoyan's instructions.

He now had only one thought: to kill everyone here, leaving them with a deep impression and a shadow.

"Boom!"

The next moment, the dense steel jungle behind Xu Changqing erupted with beams of Immortal Light. Divine light intertwined, the brilliant radiance of technology combined with Dao Patterns, and fragments of various profound meanings flew about.

Dense beams of light shot towards the Sea of Lightning ahead.

These terrifying beams of light caused gigantic pillars of light to surge from all the cities in the Eternal Star Domain, attempting to form a protective shield.

But the battlefield in the starry sky was too chaotic, with energy raging uncontrollably. The lightning tribulation was rampant, and the residual waves from various Dao Techniques and technological attacks spilled everywhere.

The stars outside the Eternal Star Domain shattered, the planets turned to dust, the moons and suns exploded, and dozens of enormous black holes absorbed the matter, grinding the steel fragments and various debris into nothingness.

"Boom!"

The light exploded again, and everyone closed their eyes. Outside the Eternal Star Domain, there was nothing left.

Even those Saint-grade mechas were dissolved by the terrifying beam.

This was true firepower coverage. Xu Changqing took out all the technological products he had obtained from Emperor Daoyan, activating them all. He used his vast divine power to drive all the Saint-grade, Half-Saint, and Severing the Dao-level technological products.

This place was instantly destroyed and shattered. Stars, planets, suns and moons, as well as spaceships and various high-tech weapons, all disintegrated in an instant, turning into ashes.

From the moment Xu Changqing underwent his tribulation, this was a one-sided crushing and massacre.

The powerhouses hiding in the dark shed tears upon seeing this. They were still rational; otherwise, if anger had clouded their minds, they would have attacked directly.

It was possible that in the instant they were restricted by the Heavenly Tribulation, that white-haired man could have used the weapons of a Great Sage, activating their divine might, and affected them.

"Hate!"

"How can a God help this Outer Domain fiend?"

"Our younger generation is all wiped out!"

"This old man hates it!"

The powerhouses in the dark were all weeping, their voices filled with venom and regret. The beings who had come to encircle and suppress Xu Changqing were all dead.

Millions of beings were directly wiped out by ninety percent, leaving only a few powerhouses and special items to protect them.

Of course, if it were just Xu Changqing alone, he would have died long ago.

But he also had the Heavenly Tribulation to assist him. Some beings were struck dead by the Heavenly Tribulation without him even having to act.

Many had just been heavily injured by the Heavenly Tribulation and then ran into his attacks.

"Boom!"

The next moment, the interior of the Eternal Star Domain exploded with a burst of fire. The fire covered everything, and countless tall buildings collapsed in an instant.

Various high-tech weapons intercepted the shockwaves, also playing some role.

But many parts of the Eternal Star Domain were sunk. The sky lost its sun and moon, and the sky was no longer filled with countless stars and a brilliant starry expanse. All that remained was a dead silence and darkness.

Xu Changqing did not leave. He did not want to leave any future trouble. He vowed not to rest until he had slaughtered their clansmen.

With this thought, he directly carried the Saint-grade Heavenly Tribulation and entered the Eternal Star Domain, beginning to search for the families that had come to encircle and suppress him, and to bloodbath them one by one.
