The Great Battle Began

"Didn't you want to see me? Now, here I am."

He Mu spoke calmly. His quiet voice was not loud at all, yet it exploded like thunder in the ears of the three Forbidden Zone Supremes and resounded above all the great Forbidden Zones throughout the universe, vast as a heavenly proclamation, lingering without end.

At the same time, the surging fluctuations of the myriad Daos of heaven and earth instantly subsided, and the Heavenly Heart Imprint stabilized as well, as though the earlier signs of the Heavenly Venerable's imminent death had been nothing but a dream.

For a moment, the myriad Daos vied to stand guard around He Mu. Countless laws encircled him, and supreme Dao immortal light surged in boundless waves. Infinite Dao radiance expounded the true meaning of the boundless, fully displaying the majesty of the Current Heavenly Venerable.

How did this look like someone about to pass away in meditation? This was clearly someone at his peak!

Seeing this, how could the three Forbidden Zone Supremes fail to realize they had been deceived? They had actually been lured out of their Forbidden Zones.

For a moment, none of the three could accept the grim reality before them.

Divine Flame Supreme, who stood at their head, roared in fury, utterly devoid of the dignity of an Ancient Supreme.

"Wuliang, you dared trick us into leaving the Forbidden Zones! Aren't you afraid we'll settle accounts with you?!"

At those words, He Mu raised his eyes. His merciless gaze swept over the three Forbidden Zone Supremes as he spoke coldly.

"If you had merely established Forbidden Zones, that would have been one thing. But even after severing your own cultivation and entering them, you remained unsatisfied. You even sought to slaughter all living beings to fatten yourselves. Your crimes are beyond forgiveness!

"Today, I shall execute you vile creatures as a warning to others."

This time, He Mu made no attempt to conceal his voice. It thundered with the will of the supreme Dao, resounding throughout the entire universe. Every living being could hear the Dao voice of Immeasurable Heaven Venerable.

They had thought the Forbidden Zone Supremes had emerged to divide up Immeasurable Heaven Venerable's Dao Fruit. But after the myriad races learned what had happened on Ziwei, the leaders of many great sects were stricken with terror.

Today, they finally learned that the Forbidden Zone Supremes had survived until now by severing their own cultivation. And now that they had emerged, they intended to use the vital essence of all living beings to prolong their lives while awaiting the Road to Immortality.

The cruel truth left every sect and race feeling as though they had plunged into an ice cellar, cold instantly enveloping their entire bodies. Fortunately, Immeasurable Heaven Venerable was still alive. Otherwise, no one could possibly restrain the Forbidden Zone Supremes.

In the mortal realm, the masses also began to cheer. Originally, they had cared little about Forbidden Zones, yet they had never imagined that those places were death warrants hanging over them, and that the beings within intended to harvest their lives.

Fortunately, this was an age ruled by a Heavenly Venerable. If anyone dared sow chaos in the universe, the supreme Heavenly Venerable would surely act to protect all living beings and restore their peace.

Now, upon hearing Immeasurable Heaven Venerable sentence the three Forbidden Zone Supremes to death, it was the countless mortals who felt the greatest relief.

For the masses living in the bustling mortal world, peace was their greatest wish and happiness. The Forbidden Zone Supremes intended to destroy that peace, but now Immeasurable Heaven Venerable had preserved it for them.

"May the Heavenly Venerable live forever, undying!"

"Blessed be Immeasurable Heaven Venerable! Blessed be Immeasurable Heaven Venerable!"

"Immeasurable Heaven Venerable's virtue is boundless!"

"Immeasurable Heaven Venerable..."

For a moment, the myriad races roared Immeasurable Heaven Venerable's name. Endless streams of thought gathered into faith and flew toward He Mu, illuminating the entire universe.

After hearing He Mu's rebuke, the Forbidden Zone Supreme shrouded in chaotic mist could no longer hold back and angrily retorted.

"Wuliang, you may possess some extraordinary abilities, but with three Supremes gathered here today, we aren't so easily bullied! If you insist on fighting us to the death, who will take the stag in the end remains to be seen!"

"Heh..."

Hearing this, He Mu gave a scornful laugh, then spoke.

"Three broken remnants, nothing more than failures on the Road to Immortality, and you want to discuss who will take the stag with me? A fight to the death? You aren't worthy!"

The Forbidden Zone Supremes could no longer endure such humiliation. The final Supreme spoke, a rolling demonic voice pouring forth with an aura that seemed capable of destroying the world.

"Enough! Why waste words on him? Let our strength decide!"

The next instant, he brazenly attacked. Terrifying, world-destroying demonic might formed a phantom of an Extreme Dao Heavenly Demon, which lunged viciously to swallow He Mu.

At the same time, Divine Flame Supreme and Chaos Supreme manifested their Dharma forms. Their boundless divine power transformed into immortal light as they coordinated with Demon Sound Supreme and struck at He Mu together.

Seeing the three Forbidden Zone Supremes coming to kill him, He Mu remained utterly composed. Boundless immortal light surged, engulfing both their attacks and their true bodies and carrying them toward the Cosmic Frontier.

A supreme God War erupted!

Boom-

The boundless immortal light collided violently with the three Supremes' attacks, unleashing endless, tremendous power. The spreading shock waves instantly shattered the stars, and even chaos was ground away by this supreme Dao heavenly might.

When their first strike failed to achieve anything, the three Forbidden Zone Supremes attacked again.

True fire blazed over Divine Flame Supreme, forming a Supreme Yang Sun that seemed powerful enough to burn immortals.

Chaotic energy permeated the space around Chaos Supreme, linking with the power of the chaos beyond the universe, seemingly about to give rise to a world.

Demon Sound Supreme blazed with demonic light. Myriad demonic shadows spread out, nourishing a central Dharma form of the Demon Lord of World Destruction. Its Dao intent of finality sought to destroy everything before it.

Faced with this spectacle, He Mu remained calm. He merely moved his hands slowly, leaving indestructible Dao traces in the void.

Earth, water, fire, and wind began to surge, and the myriad Daos gathered. A boundless, immaculate Heaven-Opening Divine Being, towering between heaven and earth, took shape within He Mu's divine power.

The divine being radiated the most sacred and divine brilliance, embodying boundless light, boundless heat, and boundless transcendence.

Around it, all living beings offered homage, the heavens paid their respects from afar, and every god bowed. It was as though a supreme Heavenly Emperor of the immortal Dao had appeared, bearing all manner of inconceivable power to suppress everything and seek the Dao of eternity!

The divine being thrust out a palm, carrying supreme heavenly might and unfolding terrifying visions of worlds being born and annihilated as it struck toward the three Supremes.

The three Forbidden Zone Supremes likewise unleashed their divine abilities. Apart from not undergoing Ultimate Sublimation, they had poured all their strength into this strike.

Boom-

The forces of the two sides collided violently. Their terrifying power threw heaven and earth into turmoil, grinding away even the Great Dao.

Yet, contrary to everyone's expectations, the very next instant decided the victor of this heaven-shaking, earth-shattering clash.

As the boundless immortal light dispersed, the three Forbidden Zone Supremes were hurled brutally away. They looked wretched, blood seeping from the corners of their mouths. Divine Flame Supreme was driven back tens of thousands of miles, crashing straight into the chaos.

He Mu, by contrast, still stood where he had been, unmoved as a mountain.

At this moment, the gulf between them was clear at a glance.
