Above the chaotic starry vault, the sound of world-shaking divine thunder rang without end, stunning all living beings.
It directly rendered Hongjun speechless.
"..."
"..."
"..."
In an instant, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, the Four Seas and Eight Wastes, and all races throughout the heavens of the Primordial World fell silent.
Some stared blankly, lost in thought as unbearable past events resurfaced.
Others gritted their teeth, their eyes spitting fire, filled with resentment and unwillingness.
Still others, overcome by emotion, shed silent tears and sighed endlessly in regret.
In the end, they became furious! Every one of them widened their eyes in rage, their anger erupting!
The masses were all stirred up!
That was right!
Why should the races of the Primordial World deserve to be exterminated beneath the overwhelming tide of the Heavenly Dao?
Why should the saints of the heavens be able to decide life and death with a single thought, casually steering the fate of countless living beings in an instant?
Why!? Why?! Why the hell!!! (Roar)
In the deepest depths of the East Sea.
Within the bone-chilling Dragon Abyss.
Zhulong, who had been imprisoned here forever after becoming tainted by boundless karmic sin in ages past, wildly twisted his massive crimson dragon body, struggling desperately and roaring.
As he writhed madly, he instantly yanked countless billions of icy iron chains, producing a harsh clattering sound that tore through layer after layer of seawater and raised raging waves that blotted out the sky.
Those iron chains had been formed from the laws of karmic sin!
Some pierced through his collarbones...
Others threaded through his winding dragon body...
Some even stabbed inch by inch into his flesh, binding his physical body, burrowing deep into his Primordial Spirit, and sealing it away!
It was terrifying beyond measure!
Zhulong wanted to struggle, yet he could not break free no matter what.
But after hearing those words.
His once-clouded, ancient crimson dragon eyes suddenly shone with light. Endless fury filled his pupils, and every roar carried towering hatred!
Once upon a time.
He had personally witnessed countless dragon kin die in the great calamities of heaven and earth, their blood staining the world!
And all of it had been caused by the schemes of the saints and the schemes of the Heavenly Dao!
How hateful!
How detestable!
"Shriek—"
At the same time, within the Southern Bright Undying Volcano, the underground magma boiled fiercely.
Phoenix Mother spread her wings and soared. Endless Southern Bright Separation Fire coiled around her fiery-red plumes, blazing wildly. A sharp light flickered in her phoenix eyes, while within her deep, sorrowful pupils...
Were reflected the tragic scenes of Phoenix clan members burning themselves to death one after another during the great calamities of heaven and earth!
Recalling all those unbearable memories, Phoenix Mother felt as though her heart were being cut by blades. Her phoenix eyes gradually reddened before being replaced by an icy gleam. She felt the same pain, her gaze overflowing with hatred!
Two flowers bloomed, each telling its own tale.
At this moment, beneath Qilin Cliff on Mount Buzhou.
The aged Qilin remnant, Tude Qilin, threw away the peachwood staff in his hand. His hunched body trembled uncontrollably, and with a shake of his body, he revealed his true Qilin form. He threw back his head and roared repeatedly, venting the suppression and unwillingness in his heart!
Fuck the Heavenly Dao!
Fuck the saints of the heavens!
Elsewhere, along the shores of the East Sea.
Within the ancestral land of the Human Clan.
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race and countless members of the Human Clan were equally enraged, burning with hatred!
Whether it was the three innate clans of dragon, phoenix, and Qilin.
Or the countless billions of humans.
They had awakened!
At this moment, all of them had awakened!!
However...
Dao Ancestor Hongjun knew nothing of this.
His Dharma Body stood towering at the center of the Witch-Demon battlefield, proudly positioned atop the chaotic starry sky. Looking down from above, he regarded all living beings and all things with neither joy nor sorrow, disdainfully overlooking everything, as arrogant and unrivaled as ever!
Faced with Chen Xuan's repeated questioning, Hongjun's Dharma Body only grew colder, and the killing intent in his eyes became impossible to conceal.
In Hongjun's view.
He was the future spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao.
The current Primordial Desolation Dao Ancestor.
The leader of the Profound Gate!
Thus, he naturally had to wield the supreme will of slaughter, enforce the way of heaven, and govern the fate of everything in the heavens and myriad worlds of the Primordial World!
So long as all things in heaven and earth remained upon the Heavenly Dao's ordained course, he would not care how many innocent lives had died throughout endless ages. To him, they were merely a string of cold numbers.
In fact, there were not even numbers recording them.
And what he had to do now was kill every variable within the Primordial World, restore order from chaos, and return the Witch-Demon great trend to its proper course!
At any cost!
"Still obstinate and unrepentant. Are you finished? If you are... you may begin repenting!"
Before long.
A cold, emotionless rebuke suddenly echoed throughout the area.
As his words fell.
Hongjun's Dharma Body moved!
He raised a hand that covered the sky and blotted out the sun, crashing down like a hundred thousand ancient divine mountains!
Carrying vast and terrifying sage pressure, heavy beyond billions of tons, it fiercely slammed toward the gathered Ancestral Witches!
Boom! Boom boom boom!!!
Space shattered inch by inch in an instant, while rolling thunder resounded. This starfield was once again reduced to primordial chaos, drawing forth endless earth, wind, water, and fire and unfolding scenes of terrifying world destruction.
"You want to touch my family? Old bastard Hongjun, you're not worthy! Get the hell out—"
"Repent? Repent your mother!! You're the one who should repent!!!"
As the supreme slaughtering pressure, nearly comparable to the fifth or sixth heaven of Hun Yuan Da Luo, came surging forth without end, Chen Xuan stood firm like the Pillar of the Primordial Desolation, Buzhou. Even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, his expression would not change.
After roaring in fury, he advanced rather than retreating before Hongjun's killing assault. Activating the Slaughter True Body, he caused the radiance of Dharma treasures around him to shine upon the world. He pushed his combat strength to its utmost limit, took a decisive step forward, and resolutely shielded the Ancestral Witches behind him!
With an earth-shattering bang, Hongjun's sky-covering hand heavily pressed down upon the Slaughter True Body. Boundless calamity fiend energy and immortal Dao laws continuously intertwined and collided.
It was like countless billions of ancient stars violently crashing together, erupting with peerless might that swept across the heavens of the Primordial World. It was utterly terrifying.
Although the Slaughter True Body was indeed fierce and invincible, comparable to a Hun Yuan Sage in slaughter.
It had already consumed much of its strength in its fierce battle against the Six Saints of Heaven and Earth. How could it withstand the might of Hongjun's Dharma Body now?
Crack—
Before long, the crisp and resounding sound of shattered glass suddenly rang across the vast starry universe.
At a glance, the Slaughter True Body was splitting apart inch by inch, ripped open by bloodstains as thick as bowls!
Under the impact of that vast slaughtering pressure, merely a wisp of aura leaking out was enough to bring disaster upon the Ancestral Witches. Every one of them groaned and vomited blood without end.
"Withdraw. Do not continue making mistake after mistake in your stubbornness!"
"Withdraw now, obediently transform into Reincarnation, and there will still be time!"
Hongjun spoke again, his tone as cold as ever, while the killing intent in his eyes grew even more intense.
If Houtu refused to retreat, he would not mind paying the painful price of suffering backlash from the Will of the Great Dao in order to destroy this Slaughter True Body, completely settle the Witch-Demon battle, and restore order from chaos!
"Senior Chen Xuan... if it truly comes to this, perhaps we should... accept our fate!"
At this moment, Houtu's pupils contracted sharply, and her delicate body trembled violently. Her slender jade hand covered her vermilion lips as tears streamed down her face. Unable to bear it any longer, she wanted to persuade Chen Xuan to stop here and surrender.
After all.
Along the way, she had finally seen clearly and understood...
Human strength would eventually reach its limit!
How could ants and mayflies, so tiny and insignificant, dare to shake the might of heaven?
How could the faint glow of fireflies contend with the brilliance of the full moon?!!
Heaven's might was like a prison! Heaven's might was like a prison!!
Under Chen Xuan's leadership, the Witch Clan had already reached this point and become famous throughout heaven and earth. Houtu was already deeply satisfied!
She did not dare ask for anything more!
"Senior!"
"I'm begging you!"
"Let us just accep—"
Houtu's sobbing voice still echoed through the air.
But before Houtu could say the words that had reached her lips, Chen Xuan suddenly roared—
"Shut up!"
"Accept our fate? Heh, accept my ass! My fate is mine, not Heaven's!!!"
"Whether I live or die is up to me!!!"
"Fuck the Heavenly Dao! Fuck you, Hongjun! If you've got what it takes, then kill me! Come kill me if you've got the balls!!"
"Come onnnnn!!!"
His furious roars shook the heavens.
Yet they still could not shake that glorious sage might.
After hearing this, Hongjun's frost-covered face instantly turned several degrees colder, and killing intent abruptly flashed in his eyes!
"Do you truly think I dare not kill you!!!"
With a deep, furious rebuke.
Hongjun's expression suddenly hardened, and he struck without hesitation!
Faced with Chen Xuan's repeated provocations, he truly dared to kill!
Did he really kill him?
Had he killed him?
