As soon as he finished speaking, the void around Ye Changge suddenly collapsed, and endless darkness spread from his feet. The pressure that dominated the heavens and the earth caused the foundation of the entire hall to crack inch by inch. The thousands of swords formed by the protective formation shattered into countless streams of light under the crushing pressure of the terrifying aura before they could even touch the hem of his clothes.
The Fire Zero Race patriarch who had just ambushed Ye Changge now had his entire hand a bloody mess, with stark white bone fragments exposed. He stared at Ye Changge's figure, which resembled a demon god descending to earth, making strange hoarse noises in his throat. His terrified pupils reflected the ever-growing golden light.
"What... what realm are you at?!" the ancestor roared shrilly, his voice filled with despair.
Ye Changge slowly turned around, his eyes flashing with a chilling light. He didn't even use any martial arts techniques; with just a thought, an endless Flame swept in.
It suddenly froze three feet away from him, and then strangely rolled back, transforming into crimson fire dragons that frantically attacked the Fire Zero Race's protective formation.
Rumble--
The array's light barrier trembled violently, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable strain. One after another, the array's core stones embedded around the palace burst open, scattering brilliant spiritual light.
The powerful members of the Fire Zero Race turned pale. They realized that they had not provoked an ordinary Human Race cultivator, but an unparalleled being who could annihilate an entire race with a mere wave of his hand!
"Senior, spare my life!"
"We are willing to hand over the Fortune Crystal and henceforth submit to the Human Race!"
A chorus of pleas for mercy echoed through the hall, all traces of their previous arrogance vanishing.
Upon hearing Ye Changge's lips curled into a cold smile, "Spare my life? When you ambushed me just now, did you ever think of sparing my life?"
The moment he finished speaking, he raised his hand and grabbed at the air.
Buzz--
The blue Fortune Crystal that was floating in the center of the hall suddenly burst out with a dazzling blue light, but it was drawn by an invisible force and flew straight toward Ye Changge's palm.
"No!"
The Fire Zero Race Chief's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He frantically burned his Origin essence and blood, channeling all his cultivation power as he charged towards Ye Changge. In his hand, he conjured a spear forged from extreme Flame, and on the spear, the Fire Zero Race's clan totem even faintly appeared.
"The light of a firefly dares to rival the brilliance of the moon?"
Ye Changge didn't even turn his head, and instead struck out with a backhand palm.
What appeared to be an ordinary palm strike contained the immense power to shatter the universe. Wherever the palm wind passed, space Annihilation inch by inch. The Flame spear, powerful enough to pierce through an ordinary saint, shattered in response, and the violent aftershocks of the power swept out like a raging sea.
Bang!
The Fire Zero Race Chief was struck as if by a heavy blow. He was sent flying backward and crashed heavily into the wall of the main hall with a dull thud. He coughed up blood and his life force instantly weakened to the extreme.
Ye Changge accepted the blue Fortune Crystal, his fingertips gently tracing the ancient patterns flowing across its surface, feeling the immense fortune it contained, a profound meaning flashing in his eyes.
"You scum, how dare you covet the destiny of the Human Race! Today, the Fire Zero Race declares its extermination."
The chilling voice, like a thunderclap from the Nine Heavens, resounded across the entire Sacred Mountain of the Fire Zero Race.
As soon as the voice fell, Ye Changge, and in an instant, the world went dark.
The Flame within the Fire Zero Race dimmed at that moment.
A terrifying pressure, as if it wanted to obliterate everything.
" Ye Changge, leave yourself some room for maneuver. You didn't have to be so ruthless."
The Fire Zero Race's progenitor spoke with an icy expression.
"I've gone too far, what can you do to me?"
"Don't even mention your Fire Zero Race, even the Heavenly Dao of the Zero Realm wouldn't dare to be presumptuous before me. You ants, your clan, your race, your lineage, your bloodline—annihilation is your only destiny."
A cold voice fell.
The giant hand pressed down instantly.
