Million-zhang sword qi crisscrossed the void, while surging killing intent blanketed the entire Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
The sudden change in the formation made Hongjun and the others' hearts tremble.
The formation could not have undergone such a drastic change for no reason. There was only one possibility: Rahou had likely entered the formation to preside over it himself!
At that thought, Hongjun felt a sudden pang of distress. He had no idea how Tongtian was doing at the moment.
However, the four of them could barely protect themselves right now and truly had no spare attention to look after him.
Besides, Tongtian possessed such abundant Heaven-Opening Merit. Unless Rahou truly wanted to perish alongside him, he would certainly not dare kill him.
"Rahou, such tricks are useless against us!"
Yang Mei had also seen through the situation. Rahou had undoubtedly returned to the formation.
He formed seals with both hands, and in the next instant, vast mana gathered behind him, condensing into an incomparably massive Dharma manifestation.
Lightning seemed to flash through the manifestation's eyes as it directly drove the power of the Space Dao Laws to its utmost limit.
Rumble!
Countless ripples immediately spread through the void, and a huge, conspicuous black hole suddenly appeared, colliding head-on with the million-zhang sword qi.
The collision produced endless thunderous blasts, yet the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation remained extraordinarily resilient, without so much as a crack appearing.
This discovery weighed heavily on Hongjun and the others' hearts.
It seemed that if they wanted to break the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, they could only find a way through Rahou himself!
If they could kill Rahou outright, this formation would collapse without being attacked.
Naturally, the difficulty of doing so was self-evident.
After all, this was already Rahou's home ground!
Yang Mei's combat strength was exceptionally formidable. Under the assault of his divine abilities, the sword qi unleashed by Rahou's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was immediately shattered.
Yet they all knew perfectly well that this was merely the beginning!
"Hongjun, all of you will die here today!"
"I will leave you without even a burial ground!"
Rahou appeared at that moment, holding the Innate Supreme Treasure, the God-Slaying Spear. Baleful qi swirled around it, and its killing intent seemed to have condensed into tangible form.
"Hmph! I think you are the one at death's door."
"With the four of us joining forces, do you think we cannot deal with you?"
Ancestor Qiankun spoke with disdain. In the next moment, the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Qiankun Cauldron, shot forth.
Buzz!
The Qiankun Cauldron silently streaked through the void and, in an instant, directly descended to suppress Rahou. Rahou sneered and met it head-on with the God-Slaying Spear.
The two treasures collided in the void, and boundless power continuously surged outward in every direction.
"There is no need for a one-on-one fight against a devil like him."
"I will assist you!"
Ancestor Yinyang stepped forward at that moment and spoke solemnly.
Forming a seal with one hand, he directly poured his mana into the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram.
In the next instant, radiant light burst from the Taiji Diagram before it fiercely descended through the void.
Rumble!
Several treasures collided violently, and the immense might even caused the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to tremble.
Outside the formation, Tongtian looked up and saw countless cracks appearing throughout the area surrounding the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
This showed that the battle inside must have been exceedingly intense.
However, Tongtian merely thought about it and had no intention of joining in.
With his cultivation, entering the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation would undoubtedly be seeking death.
"Open!"
Within the formation, Rahou formed a seal with one hand, and the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction immediately flew out of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, arriving above the Western World.
Under Rahou's control, the entire Western World began to shake violently. Then, the power of one Ancestral Spirit Vein after another rose into the sky like vast rivers, all of it pouring into the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction.
Tongtian had already fully recovered.
Sensing the disturbance in the heavens, he could not help but look up, his heart shuddering violently.
"What a ruthless Rahou! He actually intends to draw upon all the power of the Western World's Ancestral Spirit Veins?"
"His cultivation was already not far behind Hongjun and the others. With the spirit veins empowering him now, even Hongjun and the rest may not be his match."
"I must recover as quickly as possible and see whether I can glimpse the situation inside the formation."
Tongtian's expression was filled with shock as a plan immediately formed in his mind.
He had already become Rahou's enemy. If Hongjun and the others could not defeat Rahou, that man would certainly not spare him.
Even with the protection of Heaven-Opening Merit, he was not invincible.
Therefore, whether for the Primordial World or his own safety, Rahou had to die!
"Brother, what is happening?"
"The spirit veins of our Western World are being drained!!"
Not far away, Jieyin and Zhunti had not dared approach Tongtian too closely, lest they arouse his vigilance.
Yet the disturbance caused by the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction naturally could not be concealed from them.
Watching vast amounts of spirit vein power being devoured by the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction, Jieyin and Zhunti immediately panicked.
If Rahou perished, the Western World would become the cultivation grounds of the two of them!
It could be said that they had already regarded themselves as the masters of the Western World. Now, seeing the Western World's power being consumed so frantically, their hearts ached terribly.
"The two of us are utterly powerless to stop Rahou from doing this."
"We can only hope that Senior Hongjun and the others kill Rahou as soon as possible."
"So that our Western World suffers a little less loss."
Jieyin spoke with a sorrowful expression.
Zhunti's face was also unsightly at those words, but just as Jieyin had said, the two of them had no way to deal with this at all.
They could only curse Rahou silently in their hearts.
Within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
The 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction returned, and streams of vast, pure spiritual essence continuously entered Rahou's body, instantly restoring the surging blood and qi he had just suffered.
That was not all. His aura also rose tremendously, and terrifying pressure instantly spread outward.
"Something is wrong! Rahou's power has suddenly doubled."
"Could this fellow have some other trump card?"
Hongjun and Yang Mei, who were doing their utmost to deal with the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, both sensed this. Their gazes immediately fell upon Rahou.
Ancestor Yinyang and Ancestor Qiankun's expressions instantly darkened. It had already been extremely difficult for the two of them to confront Rahou.
Now, not only had Rahou recovered, he had become even stronger.
How could the two of them possibly be his match now?
Empowered by the numerous spirit veins of the Western World, Rahou's power increased enormously.
Without another word, he gripped the God-Slaying Spear and charged at Ancestor Qiankun.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Endless killing intent spread forth, sending chills through Ancestor Qiankun's heart.
He hurriedly summoned the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Qiankun Cauldron, before himself to block the God-Slaying Spear's assault.
However, he had guessed wrong. Rahou's first target was not him.
It was Ancestor Yinyang, who possessed the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram!
Rahou had attacked him merely to prevent Ancestor Qiankun from rushing to Ancestor Yinyang's aid.
A sharp glint flashed through his eyes as Rahou immediately seized the opportunity to kill.
The 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction slowly flew toward Ancestor Yinyang.
"Fellow Daoist, be careful!"
Ancestor Qiankun had already sensed that something was wrong, but he was directly bearing the pressure brought by Rahou and had no way to lend assistance.
Ancestor Yinyang chanted under his breath, and the power of the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram, erupted once more. Boundless golden radiance enveloped his body.
Boom!
A flash of black light passed over the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction, followed closely by surging devilish qi.
The devilish qi continuously transformed into the forms of ferocious beasts that had existed only in ancient times, baring their fangs and claws as they launched a violent assault.
Ancestor Yinyang's expression changed slightly. Had he been at his peak, resisting the attack of a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure would not have been difficult for him.
However, he had already suffered considerable injuries earlier.
Now that Rahou was empowered by so many spirit veins, he even felt that he could scarcely withstand the might of a single Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Pfft!
As his mana continued circulating, Ancestor Yinyang suddenly threw back his head and spat out another mouthful of blood.
In that instant, the light upon the Taiji Diagram abruptly dimmed.
The 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction immediately flew directly above Ancestor Yinyang's head. Endless devilish qi surged down, engulfing his body in mere moments.
"Hahaha! A bunch of trash actually dared besiege me."
"I will start by using you as an example."
Rahou threw back his head and laughed. In the next instant, he broke free of Ancestor Qiankun, and the God-Slaying Spear instantly pierced through Ancestor Yinyang's body.
He was completely suppressed by the power of the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction and had no strength to resist at all.
The instant the God-Slaying Spear pierced him, boundless power erupted, completely destroying Ancestor Yinyang's physical body and annihilating even his primordial spirit and life force.
A mighty Primordial Golden Immortal had fallen just like that!
This scene inevitably filled Ancestor Qiankun's heart with fear.
Rahou was simply too insane.
Had he known Rahou was this mad, he should have considered matters more carefully when Hongjun first invited him.
Now, even Ancestor Yinyang, who was stronger than him, had died at Rahou's hands.
Rahou's next target would certainly be him.
In truth, among the four of them, Ancestor Qiankun had always possessed the weakest combat strength.
Hongjun and Yang Mei's hearts also grew heavy as they watched this scene.
One fellow Daoist had fallen at Rahou's hands just like that.
With Ancestor Qiankun's combat strength, he certainly would not be able to hold on much longer either.
Once both of them perished, what were the two of them supposed to do?
They could not possibly face the terrifying power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation while also freeing their hands to battle Rahou.
That was simply impossible!
By then, the two of them would likely be in mortal danger as well.
Above the Western World, when Ancestor Qiankun fell, a heavenly phenomenon suddenly appeared in the skies.
The entire world seemed to transform into two forces of yin and yang, which then scattered apart with vast spiritual essence, dividing into countless portions and dispersing throughout the Primordial World.
Tongtian glanced up, and his heart trembled.
Could it be that a mighty Primordial Golden Immortal had fallen at Rahou's hands, given such a massive disturbance?
After all, if Rahou had fallen, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation should have opened by now.
There would not have been such a heavenly phenomenon either.
"It seems the situation truly is extremely dire."
"I must do something!"
Tongtian's expression could not help but turn solemn.
Having lost Ancestor Yinyang's assistance, Ancestor Qiankun was no match at all for the killing-intent-filled Rahou.
Every move unleashed by the God-Slaying Spear left Ancestor Qiankun struggling to defend himself. In only a short while, he was severely injured by the spear.
Hongjun and Yang Mei wanted to help, and they also knew that if Ancestor Qiankun died at Rahou's hands as well,
then today's encirclement and killing would be a complete failure.
But the two of them truly could not free their hands to help!
"Today is your day of death!"
Rahou laughed wildly. The 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction rested beneath his feet as boundless power surged into his body wave after wave, making him feel as though every inch of his body overflowed with incomparably vast strength.
The God-Slaying Spear's might also grew increasingly terrifying, and Ancestor Qiankun could only rely on the Qiankun Cauldron to fend it off.
Yet after several exchanges, the light upon the Qiankun Cauldron had already begun to dim.
At the same time, fear grew ever stronger in his heart, preventing him from fully displaying even his own strength.
Whoosh!
At that moment, the God-Slaying Spear streaked through the void with a chilling gleam and directly pierced through Ancestor Qiankun's head.
His mind had already been in turmoil, and he failed to react at all before his head was pierced.
Ancestor Qiankun instantly perished, but at that moment, waves of light suddenly shot skyward from within the Qiankun Cauldron, directly engulfing Ancestor Qiankun's body.
At the same time, his primordial spirit trembled as it flew toward the Qiankun Cauldron.
A sharp glint flashed through Rahou's eyes. His physical body had already been destroyed, yet he still wanted to escape alive from his grasp?
He had long wanted to kill all these troublesome people.
Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally would not let them go.
Thus, he immediately activated the might of the 12th Grade Black Lotus of Destruction. Endless devilish qi transformed into layers of barriers, suppressing Ancestor Qiankun's primordial spirit in place.
With a single thrust of the God-Slaying Spear, Ancestor Qiankun's primordial spirit immediately vanished into thin air!
Another mighty Primordial Golden Immortal had fallen!
Hongjun and Yang Mei, who had been silently facing each other, could not help but have their expressions change drastically.
Too brutal! Who could have imagined that Rahou possessed such astonishing combat strength?
They had merely hesitated for a moment, and it had resulted in Ancestor Qiankun's fall as well.
If this dragged on, the two of them likely would not escape death today either.
Hongjun's heart sank. Looking at Yang Mei, he said gravely, "Fellow Daoist, if you have any trump cards left, use them quickly!"
"Otherwise, I fear the situation for the two of us today will be extremely dire."
Yang Mei's expression was as dark as water. The three of them had all been invited by Hongjun to help, yet the other two had now fallen.
How could he possibly still be in the mood to keep getting involved?
As for trump cards, he naturally had some.
Among Innate Demon Gods like them, which one did not possess means of preserving their life?
But such life-saving methods might not necessarily be able to deal with Rahou!
Wasn't Ancestor Qiankun the clearest example? As long as his primordial spirit could flee into the Qiankun Cauldron, he could use the power of qiankun to reshape his body.
But such a thing could not possibly be concealed from Rahou, which was why he had still fallen.
Ancestor Qiankun's death also made Yang Mei want to retreat.
He did not want to end up like those two fellow Daoists and die directly at Rahou's hands.
After cultivating for so many years, his life was still what mattered most!
Thus, he gave Hongjun a deep look. The next moment, he brought forth a token. After pouring vast mana into it, the runes on the token immediately shone with blazing brilliance.
Then the token exploded outright. Terrifying spatial power tore open a gap within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and Yang Mei entered it without another word.
He fled directly!
Hongjun's heart jolted as he watched. The ruptured opening was clearly a spatial rift.
Even Primordial Golden Immortals did not dare enter one lightly, because every spatial rift led into the unknown!
No one knew where a spatial rift might lead.
Once one entered the chaotic currents of space-time, even a Primordial Golden Immortal would have only death awaiting them.
Of course, Yang Mei was no ordinary Primordial Golden Immortal. He surely still had hidden methods in reserve even now.
Furthermore, Yang Mei's mastery of the Laws of Space was exceptionally profound. He might truly be able to preserve his life through that spatial rift.
But what about himself?
The helpers he had invited were either dead or had fled, leaving Hongjun with no options at all.
He had prepared a backup plan to deal with the power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
But Rahou was clearly in perfect condition. Even if he used his backup plan, it likely would be of no use.
Could it be that he was truly going to lose this battle?
"Hahaha! What a cowardly rat!"
"Are these the helpers you invited, Hongjun? It seems you are doomed to die today."
Rahou had also seen Yang Mei flee directly, and delight instantly surged through him.
He had never expected his overwhelming might to frighten Yang Mei into fleeing.
With that, he could now focus all his strength on dealing with Hongjun.
With the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and the spiritual veins of the Western World aiding him, how could Hongjun possibly be his match?
The scales of advantage had completely tipped in his favor!
His next step would be to completely kill Hongjun, after which he could smoothly seize control of the vast Primordial World!
Listening to Rahou's mockery, Hongjun's face turned ashen.
Yet his mind continued searching for a way to break the deadlock.
The Great Dao Rahou followed had completely betrayed the Heavenly Dao, so the Heavenly Dao would surely never allow Rahou to rule the Primordial World.
He had to find a suitable method and defeat Rahou completely!
At that thought, Hongjun's mind immediately steadied, and his eyes grew even deeper.
Outside the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
When the token exploded, the spatial power it unleashed swept through the surrounding area.
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation could not completely conceal that force within it.
Thus, Tongtian sensed it as well, and his heart could not help sinking.
Although he knew Hongjun would certainly win this battle in the end, the situation within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was likely extremely grim.
If Hongjun and the other three had been able to suppress Rahou, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation should have stopped by now.
"This cannot continue!"
"I cannot place my life and safety entirely in someone else's hands."
"It seems I must enter the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation myself."
Tongtian's gaze flickered slightly, and his mood was somewhat heavy.
Rahou was not so easy to deal with.
Moreover, no one knew whether he possessed other trump cards besides the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
By now, Tongtian and Rahou were enemies beyond reconciliation.
The entire Demon Clan could be said to have died at Tongtian's hands. Based on that alone, Rahou could never spare him.
Therefore, he could only stand firmly on Hongjun's side.
Rahou had to die!
With that thought, Tongtian no longer hesitated. While the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation still had flaws, he could infiltrate it without expending too much effort.
Tongtian immediately transformed into a streak of light and entered the sword formation directly.
He brought forth the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda and the Northern Mysterious Control Water Flag together, completely concealing his aura.
Yet when he saw the scene within the formation, Tongtian was still shocked beyond measure.
They were gone!
Yinyang, Qiankun, and Yang Mei.
The figures of all three had vanished. Only Hongjun and Rahou remained within the entire formation.
Two treasures floated in the void.
One was the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram. The other was the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Qiankun Cauldron.
Both treasures were now ownerless, suspended in the void. What did that signify?
It meant their owners had likely already died at Rahou's hands.
As for Yang Mei, neither his figure nor his aura was within the formation, which surprised Tongtian as well.
Upon careful thought, Yang Mei indeed did not seem to have fallen during the Dao-Demon War.
It appeared that he had most likely escaped using the power of the Laws of Space.
At this moment, Tongtian watched the battle from the shadows.
Hongjun, however, was enduring the combined assault of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and Rahou.
Under such immense pressure, even with Hongjun's cultivation, he was beginning to struggle to hold on.
Rumble!
Rahou had already glimpsed the hope of victory. This not only meant he could eliminate Hongjun, his greatest enemy.
It also meant he could successfully take control of the Primordial World and thereby attain the Dao and become an ancestor.
This caused his aura to become increasingly vast and majestic, while every move he made brimmed with chilling killing intent.
Hongjun had clearly fallen into a complete disadvantage.
"Hongjun, die!"
Rahou suddenly roared. The next moment, countless changes erupted within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and all its terrifying sword qi reinforced Rahou.
At the same time, Rahou pushed the power of the God-Slaying Spear to its limit.
The void in the path of this strike shattered completely, and vast swathes of space collapsed.
Watching this, Hongjun could not help letting out a long sigh inwardly.
The tide had turned!
What should he do next?
Did he have to reveal his final trump card as well?
But even if he brought forth that supreme treasure, he could at most contend evenly with Rahou. He simply could not kill him.
If the battle continued like this, he would still be the one to lose in the end.
Buzz!
Though he hesitated inwardly, he still activated the Creation Jade Plate first.
Endless power of creation surged from the Creation Jade Plate, condensing into a barrier before him.
Yet under Rahou's fatal strike, this little bit of power from the Creation Jade Plate could not withstand it at all.
It was completely destroyed in an instant.
After all, the Creation Jade Plate in Hongjun's hands was merely a fragment!
The true Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Creation Jade Plate, had shattered into countless pieces when Pangu opened heaven and earth.
The one in Hongjun's possession was merely the largest fragment!
If he had possessed a complete Chaos Supreme Treasure, he would not have been reduced to such a state. He likely would have long since killed Rahou outright with his own power.
Just as the fatal attack was about to fall upon Hongjun.
Boundless Golden Light of Merit suddenly bloomed. That was not all—following the gathering of Heavenly Dao Merit as vast as an ocean, a Golden Wheel of Merit appeared before Rahou.
The fatal strike instantly pierced through a great amount of Heavenly Dao Merit, but it was still stopped before the Golden Wheel of Merit.
However, the Golden Wheel of Merit could not hold out either. Numerous cracks immediately appeared across it, and it began to collapse continuously.
"Damn it! I'm going all in!"
Tongtian appeared before Hongjun at that moment and, without hesitation, offered up all the Heaven-Opening Merit within his body.
Rumble!
"Courting death!"
Rahou had watched as his strike was about to completely eliminate his great enemy, yet he had never expected that damned ant, Tongtian, to block his path.
He had absolute confidence in that strike. It would certainly kill Hongjun completely!
Who could have expected Tongtian to be so insane that he would bring out all of his merit power merely to block that attack!
With an angry curse, the God-Slaying Spear, carrying its remaining force, struck Tongtian directly.
Even with merit power protecting his body, Tongtian still let out a muffled groan. His face instantly turned deathly pale, and blood appeared at the corner of his lips.
Rahou's expression was filled with furious rage. This bastard possessed far too much Heavenly Dao Merit!
His terrifying strike had even been bolstered by the endless slaughtering power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!
Yet it had still failed to kill him.
Instead, it had all been blocked by Heavenly Dao Merit.
This brat truly had a grudge against him. Had he known this would happen, he should have killed him at any cost back then.
Yet Tongtian had been allowed to ruin his plans at such a crucial moment.
"You bastard, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces! I will rip out your tendons and pull apart your bones!"
Rahou raged helplessly, his voice resounding through heaven and earth.
Hongjun, meanwhile, felt as though he had survived a great calamity. He had actually been preparing to bring forth his greatest trump card.
Otherwise, there would have been no way for him to leave safely today.
Who would have thought Tongtian would suddenly appear and use his immense merit to block Rahou's fierce killing intent for him?
At once, Hongjun saw hope of victory.
A gleam immediately flashed through his eyes. Wasn't this the opportunity he had been waiting for all along?
"Rahou! Do you truly think I cannot break your Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation?"
"Break!"
Hongjun shouted. The next moment, the power of the Creation Jade Plate erupted completely, and Heavenly Dao power surged from within it.
This Heavenly Dao power was incomparably powerful, instantly stirring endless gales within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
Wave after wave of ripples rapidly spread outward.
The Four Swords of Zhuxian were immediately suppressed by an unknown force, causing the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to show signs of collapse. In mere moments, the enormous formation completely crumbled and dispersed between heaven and earth.
Rahou's expression changed drastically, and he instantly understood why Hongjun had not been in a hurry to strike.
That bastard had actually been using the Creation Jade Plate to secretly accumulate power all this time, intending to shatter his formation in a single blow.
Had he not acted quickly and directly slain Ancestor Qiankun and Ancestor Yinyang.
If Hongjun had truly been allowed to stall until the right moment, he would likely have fallen beneath the combined assault of all four!
But before he could utter a taunt, he suddenly felt an incomparably sharp killing intent erupt.
The next moment, a Heaven-Splitting Qi Blade tore directly through Rahou's body. Rahou lowered his head in disbelief and saw deep cracks on his flesh. Not a drop of blood flowed out, yet endless demonic qi boiled forth.
"An Innate Supreme Treasure! You actually still possessed such a trump card."
Rahou could not believe it. He had never expected Hongjun to conceal himself so deeply.
Even when Rahou had killed Qiankun and Yinyang, Hongjun had not revealed such a trump card.
So he had been waiting for an opportunity all along!
With only one strike, Rahou suffered heavy injuries.
Hongjun remained expressionless. Without another word, several more Heaven-Splitting Qi Blades surged from the Pangu Banner in his hand.
What he had been waiting for was the moment Rahou's mind was profoundly shaken.
First, he would break the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and destabilize Rahou's mind.
Then he would seize that opportunity to launch a sudden attack with the Pangu Banner, catching him completely off guard.
Now, it seemed the victor of this battle had already been decided.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, the Heaven-Splitting Qi Blades completely severed Rahou's life force. Rahou's body had been utterly obliterated, leaving only a head supported by endless demonic qi.
"Hongjun, you truly hid yourself deeply..."
"But do you think you have already won?"
As his words fell, endless resentment erupted from Rahou's body.
In the next instant, endless demonic qi spread beneath the entire Western World. Then, one spiritual vein after another belonging to the Western World detonated alongside Rahou.
Rumble—!
The entire world seemed to tremble. After the mountains collapsed and the earth split apart, the spiritual qi of heaven and earth in the Western World immediately began to decline.
Hongjun's expression darkened. He had not expected Rahou to have prepared such a move.
But at this point, he could only watch in silence as the Western World declined.
At the very least, the victory in this battle belonged to him.
Although the price had been far too great, he had survived, and there would still be a chance to remedy things in the future.
Tongtian could not help but draw a cold breath. These people truly were more ruthless than the last.
He simply did not know whether the karmic sins of destroying the Western World would fall upon his head.
But the fundamental reason Rahou had been forced to self-destruct was still Hongjun. This matter should have nothing to do with him.
Besides, he had acted to help Hongjun secure victory. Hongjun should at least show some appreciation.
Only after heaven and earth had returned to calm did Hongjun take the initiative to break the silence. "Rest assured, little friend. Rahou and I will bear such immense karmic sin."
"It will not affect you, little friend."
"Furthermore, thank you for saving my life. Otherwise, I fear I would not have been able to kill Rahou so easily."
As he spoke, Hongjun's expression became incomparably complicated.
The karma he owed this time was truly far too great.
This was completely different from what he had planned!
Tongtian was about to offer a few words of comfort when several streams of treasure light suddenly flowed through the void, accompanied by powerful spiritual auras.
Before you continue
