Ming Xin's Three Bodies' questioning, laden with overwhelming momentum and cause and effect, was like ice water poured into boiling oil—it stirred a violent reaction.
Yet it failed to truly extinguish the blazing battle intent of the Witch and Demon Clans, already ignited by the Tribulation's Sha Qi and blood feuds.
Di Jun, upon hearing this, let out a cold snort. The power of the Myriad Stars Array still surged as he fixed a sharp gaze on Ming Xin, carrying the arrogance and unquestionable authority of a sovereign. "Hmph! Ming Xin, you junior, stop spouting alarmist nonsense here!
When has the matter of my Demon Clan Heavenly Court ever been for you to meddle in? The Primordial World's lands are damaged, and countless beings suffer—this is an unavoidable cost of achieving hegemony!
Once my Heavenly Court unifies the Primordial World and takes command of heaven and earth, I will naturally regulate the earth veins, reshape the mountains and rivers, and make amends to all living things! This is the righteous path of heaven and earth—why do you need to say more here?"
His words brimmed with a blueprint and confidence for the future, dismissing the slaughter before him as a mere "necessary cost."
"Bah!"
Di Jiang, upon hearing this, laughed in fury, his voice clanging like metal striking metal, filled with contempt and brutality. "Di Jun! You three-legged mangy bird, you think you're fit to rule the Primordial World?
The Primordial World is the body of Father God Pangu transformed—it is the home of us Witch Clan! So what if we smash up some of our own things?! Do we need to answer to you, a flat-feathered beast?"
He then turned his wild, savage gaze to Ming Xin, baring a naked cruelty born of the ancient wilderness. "As for those Primordial World beings? They're nothing but our prey!
The strong devour the weak—that's the way of heaven and earth! Have you ever seen a hunter apologize to his quarry?!"
Di Jiang's words laid bare the Witch Clan's creed of "supreme power" and "direct lineage of Pangu," treating all things as mere chaff, devoid of any mercy.
"Now," Di Jiang's voice suddenly turned harsh, the Space Law around him rippling violently, "let's settle the score for you striking at my Witch Clan warriors just now!"
Before his words faded, he lashed out with a claw!
It wasn't a direct attack on Ming Xin's body, but a manipulation of all the space around Ming Xin!
Crack! Crack!
The void where Ming Xin stood shattered like a broken mirror, instantly covered in countless crisscrossing black fissures!
Each fissure was a razor-sharp spatial blade, silently slicing and tearing at Ming Xin's Three Bodies from all directions!
This was the ultimate application of Space Law, enough to annihilate both the Primordial Spirit and Dao Body of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!
Di Jiang's move was like a horn signaling the charge!
Already burning with rage, Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, Zhu Rong, Gong Gong, and other peak existences erupted almost simultaneously once more!
The Chaos Bell's sound shook the cosmos, Heavenly God Fire scorched the void, Innate Water Essence transformed into a massive dragon... A torrent of attacks, fiercer and more concentrated than before, surged toward Ming Xin like a world-destroying flood!
They would teach this arrogant junior from the West a lesson with action: the affairs of the Witch and Demon Clans were not for outsiders to meddle in! Those who interfered would only meet death!
Facing this sudden escalation—a joint siege from the top powers of both the Witch and Demon Clans—Ming Xin's Three Bodies' eyes sharpened to a razor's edge.
He knew that words of warning were useless now. The Witch and Demon Clans had long been blinded by the Tribulation's Sha Qi and racial hatred, trapped in a frenzy of mutual destruction.
"Since that's the case..." Ming Xin's Main Body's eyes flashed with a fierce light, "then let you all personally experience what it means... to suffer karmic backlash and face judgment!"
He no longer tried to mediate peace but instead relied on his own power to forcibly halt this war—even if it meant doing so in a more violent way!
Facing Di Jiang's spatial cutting, enough to shred stars, and the ensuing destructive combined assault from Tai Yi, Zhu Rong, and other peak beings, Ming Xin's Three Bodies' auras merged into one, then instantly split apart, displaying a profound and mysterious countermeasure.
The Past Self stepped forward, the Red Dust aura around him surging like a boiling ocean! "Boundless mortal world, karma like a tide!"
The countless fine threads of cause and effect and the tides of good and evil were drawn forth and manifested by his Red Dust Great Dao! Not as direct defense, but like a mirror—refracting and guiding!
Part of the spatial blades aimed at him, upon touching the Red Dust aura, seemed to cut into the joys, sorrows, partings, loves, and hates of countless beings, their trajectories thrown into chaos.
Their power was worn down layer by layer by the chaotic thoughts of all living things.
Meanwhile, part of Zhu Rong's Heavenly God Fire was even drawn into a thread of its own irritable, violent "karma." Though the flames raged, they showed signs of backfiring on their master!
The Future Self was even more bizarre. He didn't meet the attacks head-on but held the Fate Compass, his form becoming illusory and unstable, as if existing simultaneously in countless future time streams. "Cause and effect shift, fate is fickle!"
His fingers plucked, and the Myriad Stars Array chains and Gong Gong's Profound Water Dragon, as they closed in, had their trajectories subtly yet crucially deflected!
The star chains and the dragon didn't miss entirely, but they collided violently with each other, unleashing an even more chaotic energy storm that partially canceled each other out!
This was the ultimate application of cause and effect and fate—creating possibility from impossibility!
The Main Body faced the core attacks head-on—Eastern Emperor Tai Yi's Chaos Sword Qi and Di Jun's controlled core power of the Myriad Stars Array!
His left eye blazed with the light of judgment, his right eye cycled through the Five Elements into chaos! "Five Elements reversed, return to chaos! Sword of Judgment, strike!"
The Five Elements Chaos Pagoda shook mightily, and what cascaded down was no longer Five-Colored Divine Light, but a more primal, more violent chaotic current, like the barrier at the dawn of creation, forcibly blocking the edge of the Chaos Sword Qi!
At the same time, he formed a sword with his fingers, using his perfected Great Dao of Killing as a foundation, fused with the newborn Law of Judgment, condensing an invisible, formless sword radiating the cold will of judgment—the "Sword of Judgment"—and slashed it fiercely at the converging core power of the Myriad Stars Array!
This strike wasn't a contest of raw Magic Power, but a direct judgment on the "karma" and "sin" of "triggering a Tribulation and causing boundless slaughter"!
Chi—!
Without an earth-shattering explosion, the vast power of the Myriad Stars Array, the moment it was struck by the "Sword of Judgment," seemed like a punctured balloon—its aura suddenly stalled, its operation momentarily sluggish! As if the very "legitimacy" of its existence had been questioned by the Heavenly Dao!
Ming Xin's Three Bodies each displayed their divine abilities, and in the span of a hair's breadth, they barely managed to deflect this siege from the pinnacle powers of the Witch and Demon clans!
Though it was somewhat strained, the auras of the Past Self and Future Self were slightly disordered, and the Main Body's face turned pale.
Clearly, the consumption was immense, but he had ultimately relied on his unique laws and the foundation of Half-step Primordial Unity to forcefully withstand it!
This scene left all onlookers stunned and horrified!
"He... he actually blocked it?!"
"Blocking Di Jiang's Space Law, Tai Yi's Chaos Bell, Di Jun's Myriad Stars Array, and the divine abilities of multiple Ancestral Witches all at once?! How is that possible?!"
"What kind of technique is that? It can even stir Karmic Fire and shift Cause and Effect?!"
Di Jun, Tai Yi, Di Jiang, and other peak existences wore expressions of extreme ugliness. For a junior to receive their combined strike was nothing short of a monumental disgrace!
At the same time, Ming Xin's eerie and unpredictable methods, which directly targeted Karmic Fire and Cause and Effect, stirred a deep wariness within them.
Ming Xin forcibly suppressed the surging blood and qi, reconnecting the auras of his Three Bodies. He knew he couldn't give them another chance to attack together—he had to strike first and disrupt their rhythm!
His gaze locked onto Di Jiang, the one who had spoken most arrogantly, viewing all living beings as mere blood food!
"Stubborn and unrepentant, treating life like weeds! Today, I'll make an example of you first!"
The Main Body, Past Self, and Future Self instantly resonated with their Dao rhythms. The system core operated at overload, pushing their power to the extreme!
"Seal of Good and Evil Life and Death—Judgment Mode!"
A massive light seal, fusing the forces of Slaughter, Judgment, Good and Evil, and Cause and Effect, condensed above his head!
Half of the seal was pure white, embodying the blessing of "Good" and the stripping of "Life"; the other half was pitch black, entwined with the judgment of "Evil" and the summoning of "Death"!
This light seal did not strike directly at Di Jiang but locked onto the dense, almost tangible Karmic Fire accumulated from his countless sins of viewing all beings as blood food and causing endless slaughter!
"Suppress!"
Ming Xin let out a cold shout. The Seal of Good and Evil Life and Death transformed into a streak of light, ignoring spatial distance, and directly imprinted onto Di Jiang's intangible "Karmic Fire" itself!
Di Jiang's expression shifted dramatically. He felt a terrifying crisis from the depths of his soul, one that threatened his very existence!
He frantically activated Space Law, trying to flee or isolate himself, but the Seal of Good and Evil Life and Death seemed to lock onto the "concept" of his existence—a "reckoning" by the Heavenly Dao for his deeds—leaving him unable to fully evade!
"Roar—!"
Di Jiang let out a pained and furious roar. The space around him twisted violently, and on his overwhelmingly powerful Ancestral Witch true body, wisps of black flames spontaneously ignited!
That was Karmic Fire! Though not fatal, it instantly drained much of his aura, and his control over Space Law became noticeably sluggish!
Strike while the iron is hot!
Ming Xin gave the other Ancestral Witches and Demon Emperors no chance to rescue. The Main Body wielded the invisible Sword of Judgment, the Past Self stirred the Karmic Fire of the Mortal World to interfere, and the Future Self plucked at the strings of fate to create openings.
The three combined forces, turning into a devastating streak of light, thrust straight at Di Jiang, whose movements were slowed by the backlash of Karmic Fire!
"Big brother, be careful!" Zhu Jiuyin exclaimed, trying to accelerate time to save him.
"Stop him!" Di Jun and Tai Yi roared simultaneously, frantically attacking Ming Xin's Main Body in an attempt to divert his attention.
But Ming Xin ignored them entirely, concentrating all his power into a single point. The Sword of Judgment carried the will to end all things.
He was determined to slay this leader of the Ancestral Witches, who viewed all living beings as blood food, on the spot—making an example of him to warn the rest!
The battlefield's situation, due to Ming Xin's fierce counterattack and targeted judgment, instantly reversed once more, plunging into an even more perilous and unpredictable phase!
