Rumble!

The heavens and earth trembled!

In the Imperial Palace, Li Kun was extremely exhausted and drowsy, but his back, which had just bent, suddenly straightened up and his eyes widened!

"This is..."

At the same time, inside and outside the Imperial City, and in Eight Directions Prosperity Capital, many Grand Confucian and Grandmaster all changed color, feeling that the Human Path Order in the world had suddenly fluctuated, as if they had encountered a great threat!

At this moment, Ma Yang, Senior Chen, Zhou Yang, and the Master of Observing Times Studio, who were gathered in the city, along with one person from the Hanlin Academy, were all moved and took action.

Even the unconscious Master of Nine-Rhyme Studio, lying on the bed, suddenly twitched, causing several disciples to shout for a doctor.

Outside the city, Void Master, along with the three monks in the temple, were all deeply moved and horrified.

"Divine Path descent? It has disturbed so much of the Human Path Order. Could it be that Transcendent Grade deity, disregarding Human Path suppression, is about to descend upon the East Flower Continent?" Deep within the Chen Residence, the Household Ancestor Chen stretched, sat up, focused his mind, and frowned.

Not only in Prosperity Capital, but the change of Order spread throughout the world. In the Eastern Capital, many Grand Confucian, led by Junior Chen and Zhou Dongyi, also changed color.

Inside the Spring Autumn Pavilion, Zheng Qiu and the Book Elder faced each other. Their aged faces showed little change in expression. Then, the Book Elder shook his head and uttered, "You should go back now. It's not time yet." After saying that, one of his arms suddenly transformed into Divine Body, then broke off from his body and flew to Zheng Qiu's body, turning into ethereal yellow mist that entered his seven orifices.

Zheng Qiu's aged face changed instantly, radiating a bit of vitality, while Book Elder's eyes grew increasingly dim and dull.

Nodding, Zheng Qiu rose and bowed respectfully. "Now there have been further changes, and it is indeed not the right time. I only hope that this matter can be completed before Master returns to the Scholar Forest."

"Don't worry, with the supplies Qiu Yan brought, I can hold on for a few more years."

"This is utter nonsense! Divine Path these days is just incomprehensible!"

In the Lin Zhong, a temple rose up at some unknown time. The temple was exquisitely designed, with carved beams and painted rafters visible, forming a striking contrast with the surrounding dense jungle.

In the open space outside the temple, a group of farmers, men and women, young and old, were gathered, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing in worship.

Inside the temple, the decorations were exquisite and magnificent. On the innermost stone platform stood three clay statues of gods. The one in the lead had a handsome face, wore a cloak, and sat upright on a long bench with carved patterns of clouds and the Blazing Sun, surrounded by Divine Sense.

On either side of the chair stood a person: one was a young man in brocade robes, and the other was a boy in rough clothes, their demeanors quite different.

From within the male deity statue clad in a cloak, a wisp of Divine Sense emanated, seemingly complaining. But then it shifted. "However, perhaps this is an opportunity. Let me perform a divination."

Clashes and battles, shouts and clashes.

Deep within the Five Marshes, the battle raged on for a long time, with Celestial Soldiers seemingly endless, constantly appearing from the Void. Even though their core flesh and blood were defiled and destroyed, their numbers actually increased rather than decreased after suffering heavy losses!

Four powerful heavenly generals have already descended and are leading their troops into battle.

Unlike the dull-witted Celestial Soldiers, the heavenly generals each had their own origins, possessed battle strategies and formations, and were highly skilled. Wherever their banners pointed, their troops charged forward, advancing step by step, and gradually establishing a foothold in the Lin Zhong the Five Marshes.

On the other hand, while the Five Marshes' method of using divine power to control poisonous insects was ingenious, allowing them to utilize the intelligence and nature of the poisonous creatures themselves, they also suffered considerable losses after the fierce battle. The surrounding poisonous insects were almost wiped out, forcing them to rely solely on swamp water and poisonous mist to gather their troops.

Even several of the Five Marshes Gods appeared one after another and went to the front lines. However, they were clearly subject to some kind of constraint and could not stay for too long. They often had to return halfway through the battle.

Even so, the power of the gods is indeed extraordinary, and they can maintain the momentum of the battle. However, in the long run, they are no match for the endless Celestial Soldiers.

"Is there still no news from Min Yuan?"

During the battle, several Divine Sense swirled in the air. The thought of the Red Marsh revealed its restlessness, wanting to utilize all resources to fight the enemy, and was already impatient.

Blue Marsh then replied, "Min Yuan sent Black Marsh to deliver a message, saying that he also has something to do, which is no less significant than confronting the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, and even claims that he can decide the outcome of the battle!"

"Who will win? How arrogant! He knows perfectly well why the Celestial Soldiers came. Non-Self weren't intolerable to the Heavenly Court, who would have shielded him from this calamity? At this point, he's acting innocent after gaining an advantage. Whether we can survive this great tribulation ultimately depends on..."

The Divine Sense of the Red Marsh was transmitted, but it stopped abruptly before it was finished, because it sensed a terrifying aura coming from afar!

The soil and water in the Marshlands trembled slightly.

The Celestial Soldiers who were engaged in battle suddenly paused for a moment before resuming their normal activities. However, this brief pause allowed many Marshlands poison soldiers to seize the opportunity, pounce on them, and wipe out a large number of Celestial Soldiers. Some poison soldiers, however, fell into an ambush and were surrounded and killed by the Celestial Soldiers who had reacted.

At the very front of the Celestial Soldiers army, the four heavenly generals charging ahead suddenly changed their expressions and turned their heads to look north.

"My lord, why have you come in person?"

"Karma linkage? It seems to be using the tricks of the Buddhist Sect. Hmm, this method mixes True Words and thoughts, it's not a direct method of Soul Seizing anymore, its subtlety surpasses even before."

A melodious voice came from above the Stove Mountain, possessing a magnetic quality that resonated deeply.

The sound wasn't loud, but within a ten-mile radius, whether it was humans, demons, or even bewildered wild beasts and aquatic creatures, everyone could hear it clearly, and a deep-seated fear would arise, causing their bodies to slow down and their muscles to stiffen.

The distorted Starlight Barrier stabilized again, and floating high in the sky within it was a cloud bed, shrouded in mist, giving it a fairyland feel. Lying on the cloud was a man, draped in a black cloak, his jet-black hair as smooth as silk, with a black cat in his arms. He was gently stroking it with his white right hand, uttering a soft murmur, and then looking up into the distance.

He appeared out of nowhere, but caused a sudden change throughout the entire East Flower Continent, and unrest Eight Directions!

"Eye-Bearing Star Lord ..." From afar, sensing the man's gaze, Dao Ancestor in Hemp Robe robes looked solemn, his eyes revealing worry.

"This is too reckless! I advise you to give up on recruiting this newly ascended deity," said the Daoist Wugou, whose path had been blocked, his expression also grim. "Besides, you have no chance of recruiting him anyway, Yizhou Star Lord! He's offended such a powerful god; he has no chance of survival."

"This matter is indeed difficult. We hadn't considered this beforehand. Even if I were to intervene, I might not fare well. Star Lord is not comparable to Demon King," sighed the Venerable Hemp Robes. "Moreover, facing Star Lord of the Transcendent Grade, even if we wanted to reverse the past and reverse Karma, it would be difficult. Besides, the other party has already noticed me. It's a tough situation..."

Boom!

Before the words were even finished, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting the cloud bed once again!

Snap!

With a crisp sound, the Eye-Bearing Star Lord sat up and slowly reached out to catch the lightning bolt in his palm.

But his simple action triggered a chain reaction, causing dark cracks to appear in the surrounding space!

"My time in the mortal realm is limited. Even with starlight to obscure it, it won't last long. Let's finish this quickly." As he spoke, his gaze swept over Ao Ling and Winged Dragon in the distance, sending a chill down their spines. They fell from the clouds, and then he turned his gaze to Qiu Yan.

Boom!

In an instant, it felt as if a massive mountain had suddenly crashed down. Qiu Yan only felt a deafening roar in his senses, and before he could even retaliate, his Divine Body was forced to fall by the pressure of the gaze. He crashed into the Stove Mountain, forming a huge crater.

"Relying on the Starlight Barrier, and following the connection between the East Flower Continent and me, you've linked my Karma with yours. What a skillful method! What Qi Soul! What courage!" The Eye-Bearing Star Lord held a half-smile as he looked at Qiu Yan, saying, "However, this move is also quite foolish. I truly cannot understand why you dragged me into this. Even against Zhao Wu, you weren't confident of victory; facing me, there's even less chance of escape. Don't think I'd make the mistake of underestimating you; you're already trapped."

As he spoke, the surrounding space, Karma, fortune, Fortune, and matter all froze, and even time seemed to slow down considerably. Qiu Yan was as if he had fallen into a block of solidified ice, unable to move.

"Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit. With me suppressing the surroundings like this, even if you have a backup plan, it will be difficult for you to reach me..." As he spoke, Eye-Bearing Star Lord raised his hand and pressed down, but the spatial rifts around him suddenly expanded and spread rapidly. With crackling sounds, the sky above his head was filled with cracks.

"This isn't enough? You can't even withstand a single palm strike?" Eye-Bearing Star Lord frowned, withdrew his hand, and pointed out one of his index fingers.

Only then did the spatial rift stop expanding.

However, after that finger pointed down, the frozen space was continuously compressed and condensed, overlapping towards Qiu Yan's Divine Body!

Crack!

Qiu Yan's Divine Body was actually deformed by the pressure, and cracks appeared on its surface. An irresistible force surged in like a tidal wave, and his connection with the believers was instantly severed. The incense Votive Thoughts, tainted with a bit of the Star Lord's power, flowed backward, causing many believers to feel suffocated. Several people with weak kidneys and bodies died instantly!

But Qiu Yan no longer had the energy to care about the believers. The overwhelming pressure and the severing of karmic Karma had caused his Divine Body to shrivele. Under the combined effect of internal and external pressure, he even felt as if he was about to explode.

Once the talisman is exposed after the explosion, fate will change hands.

"Oh? No sign of retaliation? Then why summon me, the true ruler?" The Eye-Bearing Star Lord a slight doubt, then his expression changed, feeling the karmic Karma binding him suddenly tighten, a Divine Sense transmitted to him—

"To oppose the Heavenly Court, if we don't take risky measures, but simply meet force with force and water with water, how can I, alone, possibly prevail? In the end, I will be trapped in the vast and overwhelming situation, unable to break free. If we want a turning point, we must temporarily escape this net!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Yan 'Divine Body trembled, and a book flew out, its cover bearing four characters: --
