Power of the World-Extinguishing Millstone, Hongjun Shows His Edge

The moment the World-Extinguishing Millstone appeared, the entire battlefield seemed to have been hit with a pause button, falling into absolute silence.

The upper and lower grinding stones were covered in profound, mysterious Dao patterns of Destruction.

It hovered above Shen Ni's head, rotating slowly; with every revolution, the surrounding space twisted and shattered, revealing vast stretches of pitch-black void.

A suffocating pressure enveloped the entire Far West Lands.

"What... what is that?"

A soldier of the Alliance Army asked with a tremor, his voice filled with terror.

But no one answered him.

Zulong transformed into his human form, standing at the front of the grand army, staring at the millstone with an expression of extreme gravity.

He could sense that this grinding disc far surpassed any top-tier Innate Supreme Treasure, containing within it a power capable of destroying the world and annihilating the earth.

"Retreat!" Zulong roared suddenly. "Everyone, retreat quickly!"

However, it was already too late.

Shen Ni sneered, his hands held out as if supporting the void, and the World-Extinguishing Millstone gave a violent jolt.

A gray ripple expanded from the disc, and wherever the ripple passed, everything began to disintegrate.

The earth began to crack, mountains collapsed in rows amidst thunderous roars, and rivers ceased to flow.

Those Alliance Army soldiers who could not dodge in time were turned directly into powder the moment they were swept by the ripple, dissipating into the wind before they could even let out a scream.

In just a single instant, millions of Alliance Army soldiers were reduced to fly ash.

"No!" Yuanfeng's eyes were on the verge of splitting, watching helplessly as her clansmen vanished before her eyes.

Shi Qilin gritted his teeth and roared, his four hooves stomping the ground violently. The power of the earth surged as he attempted to build a wall of soil in front of the Alliance Army to block the gray ripple.

However, the moment the wall rose, it collapsed under the impact of the ripple.

"It's useless," Shen Ni sneered. "Under the World-Extinguishing Millstone, all things shall be extinguished."

He waved his hand, and the World-Extinguishing Millstone jolted again, sending out another gray ripple.

This time, the target was the leaders of the Three Clans.

Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shi Qilin all changed color simultaneously. They wanted to dodge, only to find their bodies locked by an invisible force, unable to move at all.

Just at this critical, hair-trigger moment,

A streak of white light flashed by.

Hongjun's figure appeared before the three of them, raising his hand to manifest a jade disc that was translucent white throughout.

The jade disc hovered in mid-air, shedding a soft white light that formed a screen, shrouding the three of them within.

The gray ripple slammed into the light screen, producing a harsh, grating sound like fingernails scraping against glass. The screen trembled violently, but in the end, it did not shatter.

"Creation Jade Butterfly?" Shen Ni's pupils constricted. "How do you possess this object?"

Hongjun did not answer, merely staring at the World-Extinguishing Millstone with a grave expression.

He secretly rejoiced in his heart: Fortunately, Dao Venerable Shichen bestowed a complete fragment, otherwise this World-Extinguishing Millstone would truly not be so easy to resist.

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, you all retreat first," Hongjun said without looking back. "This treasure's power is too great; your staying here will be of no help."

Zulong gritted his teeth. Although unwilling, he knew Hongjun spoke the truth. He signaled to Yuanfeng and Shi Qilin, and the three of them commanded the army to retreat.

"Want to run?" Shen Ni sneered. "This Emperor said, today, none of you are leaving!"

He formed seals with his hands, and the World-Extinguishing Millstone suddenly accelerated its rotation. The Destruction Dao patterns on the disc lit up with a blinding black light, and a more terrifying aura erupted from within.

"World-Extinguishing!"

Shen Ni roared, and the World-Extinguishing Millstone jolted violently. A thick pillar of black light shot out from the disc, piercing the clouds before crashing down toward the direction of the Alliance Army.

Hongjun's brows furrowed slightly. He formed seals rapidly with his hands, and the Pseudo-Creation Jade Butterfly burst into brilliant light, the laws of the Three Thousand Daos flickering alternately upon it.

He pointed a finger, and the jade disc shot out a beam of white light, colliding head-on with the black pillar.

BOOM!!!

The moment the two forces collided, the entire Far West Lands shook violently.

The shockwave swept in all directions, overturning the earth for hundreds of millions of miles. Those Ferocious Beasts and soldiers of the Three Clans who had not escaped far enough were swept by the shockwave and turned into powder.

The light faded.

Hongjun stood where he was, the Pseudo-Creation Jade Butterfly hovering above his head, its light somewhat dimmed.

"Interesting," Shen Ni licked his lips, a trace of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"I didn't expect you to be able to take this strike from this Emperor. Then, how will you resist what comes next?"

He raised his hand, and the World-Extinguishing Millstone lit up with black light once more. This time, both layers of the disc began to spin crazily. The sky of the Primordial World suddenly turned dark and gloomy, and a humming sound echoed from all directions, as if the world itself were wailing.

If this strike were unleashed, eighty percent of the living beings in the Primordial World would likely be wiped out.

Hongjun took a deep breath and gripped the Whisk in his hand.

He knew he had underestimated the power of that World-Extinguishing Millstone. Although it was only a replica, its terrifying nature far exceeded his imagination. If he allowed it to continue, the Primordial World would likely be destroyed.

Sigh, it seems I must reveal some of my cultivation.

After muttering to himself, the aura around Hongjun changed drastically. The pressure of the fifth level of the Hunyuan Realm permeated the heavens and earth, and purple clouds stretched for thirty thousand miles from the east.

The vast pressure made all living beings feel as insignificant as ants.

"This... what realm is this! Is it above the Primordial Golden Immortal? So the Primordial Golden Immortal was not the peak!"

Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shi Qilin stared blankly at Hongjun's figure.

Meanwhile, Taotie, who had been hiding in the distance secretly watching the battle, felt his heart churning like a stormy sea.

System, what is going on? Why does Luo Hou already have the cultivation of a Sage? What is going on with this Primordial World? Could it be the butterfly effect caused by my transmigration?

Will I be able to steal the kill from a Sage later?

At this moment, he did not know that the person was Hongjun, and that the term "Sage" was the title for the realm Hongjun would reach after his future sermons—the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.

Because there were no Immortals in the Hundun, Hongjun's Dao of Immortality could not be preached there, so it was called the Hunyuan Realm, yet the strength differed.

The system did not reply, for it was somewhat bewildered itself. It sensed that this was not the aura of a Sage, but rather the aura of a higher-level Hunyuan Realm.

Everything seemed to have exceeded its imagination.
