The Insane King of the Otsutsuki

Half a minute earlier.

Under the long-range assault of Otsutsuki Hishiki and the other elder.

More than half of the [Temple] had been destroyed, exposing the [Purification Altar] within.

It also revealed the [King's Clone] holding a divine spear.

With just one glance.

Elder Otsutsuki Hishiki was certain.

That [King Zhenruo] was indeed conducting some mysterious ritual, and was most likely truly breaking through to become a [True God]!

He and Beishi had not made a mistake!

But then.

Before the two of them could make another move.

A sudden change occurred.

[The two demigod guards suddenly departed]

[King Zhenruo's clone brazenly attacked, piercing Otsutsuki Beishi with a single thrust]

[The large-scale divine artifact barrier shattered with a thunderous crash]

This string of shocking developments left Otsutsuki Hishiki utterly dumbfounded.

He could not make heads or tails of it.

He had merely launched a slight probing attack. How had it caused such an enormous upheaval?

This should not have happened!

Could it be that destroying the [Temple] had caused the barrier to break?

How could it be that simple?

Still.

Though countless possibilities ran through his mind, that fleeting spear strike from the [King's Clone] terrified him even more!

It had directly slain Elder [Otsutsuki Beishi] beside him!

That faster-than-light strike had not even given Elder Beishi the chance to activate his authority...

Hishiki could even vaguely see.

That the power of the divine artifact had pierced through Elder Beishi's soul and firmly locked down his soul's regenerative ability...

The might of a [Divine Artifact] was truly horrifying!

But.

What shocked Hishiki even more was this.

How did [King Zhenruo] dare strike so ruthlessly at an elder of the main family?

And with such decisiveness and utter disregard for consequences!

Was he not afraid of provoking an all-out civil war
