The instant the Eye of Heavenly Punishment opened, its boundless pressure powerful enough to destroy the world, it fixed its gaze on the one with the highest cultivation present: Hu Yan, the Tibetan Fox.
"???!" Hu Yan went rigid on the spot, not even daring to breathe as he frantically shook his head.
It wasn't me! Sure, I'm at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, but I really don't have the guts to provoke Daddy Heavenly Dao!
Have these brats all gone mad?! How much strength do they even have? They actually summoned the Eye of Heavenly Punishment!
Bai Feiyu gazed at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment overhead, his expression unchanged. He was mildly surprised at how pathetically weak it had become compared to the Elder Ancient Era.
Bai Feiyu slowly drew his sword. If the Heavenly Dao is without mercy, I shall be the Heavenly Dao!
Shing! A sword flashed free of its sheath. Sword intent surged from Leng Qingsong, pointing straight at the Heavenly Dao.
"If the Heavenly Dao is without mercy, I shall cut it down!"
Chen Changsheng had only wanted the two of them to sever the connection between Xiao Feng and the Divine Beasts if the Heavenly Dao refused its approval and Xiao Feng lost to the Divine Beasts' consciousnesses.
Instead, both drew their swords at once and faced the Heavenly Dao head-on.
In the eyes of geniuses, the best way to solve a problem was to tackle its root!
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment sensed two streams of sword intent charging straight toward it.
A hint of confusion appeared in the previously unruffled, emotionless Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
Why does one of these two streams of sword intent feel so familiar?
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment looked down. Dressed in white, Bai Feiyu wore a faint smile on his otherwise expressionless face, as though greeting it.
It's him! He's actually reincarnated! A trace of fear flashed through the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, immediately followed by vicious resolve.
Kill him now, before he has a chance to grow!
Bai Feiyu's sword intent soared into the sky, but it did not aim straight at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
Instead, it took the shape of Bai Feiyu and flashed past the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
It left behind a quiet threat: "Do you want me to blind you again?"
Those words seemed to awaken memories long sealed away within the Eye of Heavenly Punishment. The dark clouds blanketing the sky instantly scattered like smoke.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment looked at Xiao Feng, who was slowly taking over the two Divine Beasts. Anger flashed in its gaze, and a slender Lightning Serpent lunged at Xiao Feng, jaws bared.
"Purple Firmament World-Destroying Divine Thunder!"
Bai Feiyu and Chen Changsheng instantly recognized the Lightning Serpent!
It could completely erase a person's existence from the river of time!
This divine thunder sought to wipe away every trace of its target's existence!
Moreover, it ignored space and time. Its attack could not be blocked!
"Insolent!"
"Vile beast!"
Bai Feiyu and Chen Changsheng were shocked and furious that the Eye of Heavenly Punishment had suddenly attacked without a shred of martial honor!
"You're courting death!"
Although Leng Qingsong did not know why the two had suddenly started cursing at the sky, the eye overhead was surely to blame!
Leng Qingsong drew his sword and charged straight at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment in the sky.
Seeing Leng Qingsong attack, Bai Feiyu and Chen Changsheng struck at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment as well.
Two streams of sword intent, along with an attack unleashed by the activated Little Mountain Peak Grand Formation, thrust straight toward the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment was somewhat dumbfounded. How did these ants dare?
Usually, every last one of these ants would cry and beg Daddy Heavenly Dao to strike more gently. Yet these three were drawing swords and activating formations!
Since Xiao Feng was only in the Foundation Establishment Realm, the attacks of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment he had summoned were weakened beyond recognition.
Even the Heavenly Dao had never imagined that someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm could summon the Heavenly Tribulation!
With all three attacking at once, the Eye of Heavenly Punishment actually began to panic. Drawing out a mere strand of Purple Firmament Divine Thunder had already consumed seventy percent of its power.
Am I going to get stabbed again this time?
In its panic, the Eye of Heavenly Punishment prepared to flee. Never since its birth had the Eye of Heavenly Punishment run away!
This was utterly humiliating!
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment glared venomously at the three attacking it. This time, it had not brought its full strength.
Just you wait! When you undergo Tribulation Transcendence, I'll blast you to death!
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment restrained the three, freezing them in place, unable to move an inch.
No matter how heaven-defying the three were, they were only in the Core Formation Realm. Hurting the Eye of Heavenly Punishment was still impossible.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment stared viciously at them, then turned its gaze to Xiao Feng, whose body the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder had entered. Only then did it prepare to slowly dissipate.
"Want to leave? Did you ask me?" Ouyang's calm voice rang out.
Heaven and earth essence between heaven and earth surged madly toward Little Mountain Peak.
A massive hand formed from heaven and earth essence seized the departing Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
Who dares lay hands on the Heavenly Dao!
A rain of blood abruptly fell. Wherever it landed, it corroded tiny holes.
"Stop!"
A majestic voice resounded throughout heaven and earth, carrying a desolation and loneliness that seemed to have existed since time immemorial.
As the voice emerged, the four seasons cycled madly between heaven and earth, and the sun and moon alternated like flashing lights.
This realm became murky with chaos, beyond description.
Standing on Little Mountain Peak, Ouyang remained calm as true qi poured from his body like a vast, surging river.
Ouyang pulled Leng Qingsong, the other two, and Hu Tutu into the room, leaving only the Eye of Heavenly Punishment and Xiao Feng.
With the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder inside him, Xiao Feng's body began to disintegrate. The phantom forms of the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird desperately resisted that dissolution, but before this Lightning Serpent, they could only watch in despair as it devoured them bit by bit.
Ouyang cast a sidelong glance at the Eye of Heavenly Punishment in his grasp and instantly realized who the voice belonged to.
The heavenly Dao voice!
Ouyang sneered and abruptly raised his hand. The invisible giant hand dragged the Eye of Heavenly Punishment straight down.
"Hmph!"
The voice, laden with timeless loneliness, let out a muffled grunt.
Ouyang immediately felt the crushing pressure of heaven and earth squeezing madly against him.
The desolation of being rejected by heaven and earth filled his heart.
Yet in an instant, it vanished like melting ice and snow.
An indescribably vast amount of true qi churned around Ouyang, nearly condensing into mist.
A massive cloud in the shape of a human face slowly appeared in the sky.
But Ouyang gave it no chance to take shape. His immense true qi shot skyward, blasting the face-shaped cloud into scattered fragments.
"If you want to disgust me, you're not up to it. Let the Great Dao come!" Ouyang said calmly, summoning the invisible hand clutching the Eye of Heavenly Punishment to his side.
Ouyang guided the giant hand, still gripping the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, toward Xiao Feng, who was already on the verge of collapse.
The rampaging Purple Firmament Divine Thunder instantly stopped. The Lightning Serpent poked its head out, puzzled by the Eye of Heavenly Punishment's sudden appearance.
Then Ouyang commanded the giant hand to press the Eye of Heavenly Punishment into the center of Xiao Feng's brow!
The Purple Firmament Divine Thunder instantly took the form of a Lightning Serpent and was sucked into the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
The phantom forms of the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird immediately became solid.
A soaring dragon's roar rang out alongside a shrill bird's cry.
The once hostile world instantly sprouted golden lotuses from the earth. Dark-yellow qi descended from the sky, and purple qi shone across three thousand li.
The Heavenly Tribulation had passed. With the Divine Beasts' emergence, auspicious signs were due to descend upon the world.
Yet, seemingly displeased with Ouyang, the auspicious signs appeared for only an instant before heaven and earth returned to calm.
"How petty!" Ouyang curled his lip as he looked at the sky.
