With a pale face and a slightly trembling body, the old woman was a clan elder of the royal family. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her fists were clenched white from tension.
In that instant, after noticing Su Yun's unusual behavior, her heart trembled violently, and her heart sank lower and lower.
"Your Majesty, he... he actually cultivated... cultivated a forbidden technique! The Primordial Devil Scripture wasn't a complete cultivation method. After His Shenghuang obtained it, he discovered it couldn't be cultivated and sealed it away. I never expected... I never expected Your Majesty... he actually cultivated the Primordial Devil Scripture!"
While everyone was excited by Su Yun's power, a solemn expression appeared on the face of this elder of the royal family. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little desperate.
In the history of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, Su Yun's achievements can be described as extremely terrifying. He accomplished many feats that emperors could not achieve. However, he has now actually cultivated the Primordial Devil Scripture. Although this technique is powerful and domineering, it is incomplete and cannot be stopped once cultivated. It will devour a person's lifespan at an extremely terrifying speed.
Su Yun was incredibly powerful at this moment, but she was very clear that this overwhelming strength was obtained by sacrificing her life, not through normal cultivation.
In her despair, she hated herself, hated her own powerlessness, and hated her inability to protect this vast dynasty.
If she possesses sufficient strength to deter external enemies, then Su Yun will surely be able to unify the world under the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After taking a deep breath, her gaze instantly sharpened as she stared intently at the void. She knew that Su Yun's strength was earned at the cost of his lifespan, and that Song Weiyi, this ancient prodigy, had challenged the Great Zhou Imperial Clan and threatened the Great Zhou Dynasty. Today, she would witness this ancient prodigy perish before the imperial city.
" Su Yun, do you think you're very strong?"
"That Spirit Character Combat Technique Spirit Character Combat Technique just used was indeed my signature move, but do you really think that's my strongest? My strength is far beyond the comprehension of a mere secular dynasty like yours. My Supreme One Sect is the number one Daoist Dao Sect, and the Spirit Character Combat Technique we possess are beyond your imagination."
"Although your strength has greatly surprised me—no, it shouldn't just be me, but the whole world has felt surprised—you cannot change anything, because in my eyes you are still an ant. What power does an ant have to change the Destiny of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
"Now, my realm has reached the limits of heaven and earth, and I can even Heaven Breaking at any time. Dealing with someone like you who has only cultivated for a little over 100 years is as easy as taking candy from a baby."
The anger on Song Weiyi's face quickly disappeared after he was defeated, replaced by an arrogant demeanor, or more accurately, Su Yun piqued his interest for a moment.
"Ants?"
"No wonder they come from that damn number one Dao Sect in the world. As expected, the dogs of the Supreme One Sect are all very good at fantasizing and boasting, thinking they are also the best in the world, the mountain beyond the mountain, the sky beyond the sky."
"However, today I, the Emperor, will tell you that your Supreme One Sect is nothing but a bunch of self-important, stinking Daoist priests. You are merely the most powerful force among the many that have awakened during this period. Don't even think about becoming the overlord of this new era! You are all ants eliminated from the last era. You are not worthy to rule this new era!"
"My Great Zhou Dynasty rules the world, enabling everyone to cultivate, and ensuring that all my millions of people within my territory are well-fed and clothed. This is the way of the king, and the way of righteousness."
"And your Supreme One Sect, like bandits, plunders resources everywhere. Around your sect, many Lineage have been cruelly wiped out for refusing to submit. Those mountains with spiritual veins have been tyrannically occupied by your Supreme One Sect, leaving cultivators without places to cultivate."
"Your territory is lawless, chaotic, and its people are displaced. Evil spirits and heretics run rampant, and all of this is your doing. You are the greatest demons in the world, yet you dare to call yourselves the number one Dao Sect under heaven."
"Recently, you have become even more audacious, attempting to use your overwhelming power to oppress the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, forcing us to submit to your tyranny. But my Great Zhou is the hope of all the people under heaven, and I, Su Yun, am the king in their hearts. They have placed all their hopes and expectations on me. Today, for the sake of justice and countless lives, I will slay you, Song Weiyi, this demon in human skin."
Su Yun, who was standing in the void, heard Song Weiyi's voice. The calmness on his face slowly disappeared, and a terrifyingly cold aura burst forth from his body. At this moment, a terrifying killing intent erupted from his body.
At the same time, a gigantic phantom slowly materialized behind him. This gigantic phantom was actually an extremely large ancient demon.
That domineering and unparalleled demonic power immediately compressed Song Weiyi's terrifying domain.
"Um?"
Upon seeing the terrifying demonic shadow behind Su Yun, Song Weiyi's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You claim to be of the righteous path, but you actually cultivated Devil Race techniques, making you the true evil one. This is why my Supreme One Sect is eliminating you and establishing a new ruler."
When he saw the terrifying aura behind Su Yun surging, a smile appeared on Song Weiyi's face. In that instant, after discovering that Su Yun was cultivating a Devil Race technique, he suddenly realized that he had a legitimate excuse to kill Su Yun and establish a new ruler.
"What is evil, what is immortal, what is demon, what is god, what is evil, what is Buddha—all these exist in the hearts of the common people. If one has the world in their heart, and the lives of millions of people in their heart, then whatever cultivation method they practice, if they do not sacrifice the lives of living beings for their practice, then that is the righteous path."
"You Supreme One Sect cultivate powerful Dao Sect techniques, yet you have become corrupted by demons. You will stop at nothing for your own gain, disregarding all living beings. You are the true demons!"
Su Yun walked step by step toward Song Weiyi, because at this moment Su Yun's aura had accumulated to an extreme. He wanted to use this power to kill the ancient genius Song Weiyi, so that all the people and sects in the world would know that the Great Zhou Dynasty could not be humiliated or bullied.
Seeing Su Yun approaching step by step, Song Weiyi knew that now was not the time to continue, and he had also lost interest in debating.
Right now, Song Weiyi wants to kill Su Yun with a single sword strike, so that all the forces in the world will know the power of the Supreme One Sect. The Supreme One Sect has only one ideal, which is to make all the forces in the world submit to it.
In this new era, they will seize every resource they can, maximizing their power, because in their eyes, all people are nothing but ants, and their lives are less valuable than those of animals.
"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! Those foolish people in the world, whose lives are as worthless as grass, and you actually fight for their lives?"
"Today I'll show you what Invincible and control truly mean. Might makes right."
" Blood-Drinking Sword, Devour the Firmament!"
In that instant, Song Weiyi roared to the sky, her black hair dancing wildly under the terrifying aura, and countless terrifying sword intents surged from Song Weiyi body as if there were no end in sight.
Around his body, Spirit Character appeared one after another. These powerful Spirit Character quickly began to combine, and behind Song Weiyi, an enormous blood-red longsword appeared. This blood-red longsword shimmered with a blood-red light that made people tremble.
In the void where Song Weiyi was, the heavens and earth seemed to turn blood red, and at this moment, Song Weiyi was like a terrifying Asura killing god who had walked out of hell.
At that moment, the powerful figures from various forces and races lurking in the shadows were filled with terror as they witnessed Song Weiyi's powerful aura erupt. Some who knew about ancient secrets even had their pupils shrink in that instant.
Their bodies trembled violently, for the moment they saw the blood-red longsword, they knew what it was.
"Kill... Life-Slaying Sword!"
A powerful, lurking figure spoke, his body trembling.
The Life-Slaying Sword is an extremely terrifying killing Spirit Character Combat Technique. It is incredibly frightening and ranks very high in the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter, even more terrifying than the Tyrant Sword Art, because the Life-Slaying Sword is all about killing and is relentlessly forward.
Before the imperial city, some ancient beings also saw it, and at this moment, their eyes were filled with terror.
They recognized it too; it was the Life-Slaying Sword.
At this moment, inside the Demon God Grotto-Heaven, Su Xiuyi, who was cultivating in the Dao Comprehension Thatched Cottage Hut, slowly opened her eyes.
"Um?"
"What happened? Has something major occurred in the Great Zhou?"
" Su Yun seems to be drawing upon the power of destiny to enhance his strength. Su Yun is not weak; could it be that even if he unleashes his full power, he is still no match for his opponent?"
At this moment, Su Xiuyi couldn't help but mutter to herself.
Because he possesses the Pupil of Void Breaking, which allows him to see through all illusions, Su Yun's hidden strength naturally could not escape his notice.
Therefore, with the continuous revival of Spiritual Qi, he announced a ten-year seclusion.
However, Su Xiuyi quickly closed his eyes again, ignoring it, because he had a backup plan; even if Su Yun was no match for him, he should be fine.
Outside the imperial city, Su Yun, in the void, faced the terrifyingly powerful Life-Slaying Sword technique of Song Weiyi's Spirit Character Combat Technique. His expression was extremely solemn. Even though he had cultivated the Primordial Devil Scripture, he still felt pressure. In order to be on the safe side, he had to draw on his luck.
Those who offend our Great Zhou will be killed without mercy!
Su Yun watched as an extremely terrifying sword descended, shattering his demonic power. The demonic shadow, empowered by the power of destiny, also attacked the Life-Slaying Sword.
"Boom!"
Under horrified gazes, the two men's terrifying attacks collided, and the void in front of them shook violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.
"Um?"
However, the incredibly confident Song Weiyi suddenly changed her expression the next moment.
Because his extremely powerful Spirit Character Combat Technique, the Life-Slaying Sword, was actually broken by the demonic shadow and swallowed whole, he lost his connection with his Spirit Character in that instant. At that moment, the demonic shadow formed from Su Yun's Spirit Character suddenly attacked, and a demonic blade pierced through his brow.
"You······"
At this moment, the brilliance in Song Weiyi's eyes was gradually fading.
He wanted to speak, but his life force was being rapidly devoured by the demonic blade. Song Weiyi looked resentful, but there was nothing he could do to change anything.
"Dead... dead?"
The moment the demonic blade pierced Song Weiyi's brow, everyone present stared in disbelief.
The incredibly powerful ancient genius was actually killed by Su Yun. Everyone knew Su Yun's age very well, but what happened before their eyes left them no room for doubt.
Su Yun killed Song Weiyi, and his body trembled slightly; he too had been injured earlier.
However, Su Yun dared not show any unusual behavior, because Song Weiyi was merely an ancient prodigy disciple of the Supreme One Sect. If he were to be exposed as injured, the Supreme One Sect would likely attack immediately. At this moment, he only wanted to buy time for himself to heal.
