Before the Execution Platform, a world-shaking scene unfolded. The demon broke free of his restraints and slew the Confucian Sect Dragon Head with a single sword strike.
The sight was so shocking that no one had time to react. By the time they came to their senses, the demon's figure had already vanished into the distance.
Before the ministers of the divine dynasty, the Great Yu Emperor was the first to speak, saying gravely, "Capture this demon. Should he resist, kill without mercy!"
"Yes!"
All around, divine generals accepted the order and shot forward, racing after him.
Meanwhile, the Teacher came back to his senses. Killing intent surged wildly from him, and his face twisted with madness as he turned and gave chase.
"Ning Chen, you deserve to die!"
With the Confucian Sect Dragon Head slain, the Teacher flew into a rage. Like rushing thunder, he blasted through every obstacle and swept ahead of everyone else.
After only several breaths, the pursuers had arrived before the Divine Prison. Ning Chen turned around before it and looked at the Teacher speeding toward him from behind. Calmly, he said, "Angry? Resentful? This is the demon upon whom all of you heap your hatred and fury."
As his words fell, the battered Green Cauldron appeared in Ning Chen's hand. He turned and hurled it at the Divine Prison ahead.
"Presumptuous!"
Before the heavenly prison, divine generals appeared one after another to stop him. Yet the Green Cauldron came crashing down with the supreme might of the Heavenly Demon, and none could halt it.
Boom!
An earthshaking collision rang out. The Divine Prison, protected by layer upon layer of formation patterns, shook violently beneath the Green Cauldron's impact. All around it, formation pattern after formation pattern shattered and vanished like smoke dispersing into clouds.
