Death and the Destruction of the Origin

With a flash of light, Qingmingzi's sword unleashed countless cyan Sword Qi that swept towards White Emperor like a tidal wave.

True Person Xuanfu then made Method Formula seals, and sealing runes flew out in an attempt to restrict the White Emperor's movements.

The three attacked White Emperor and instantly gained the upper hand.

Although the White Emperor's metal-based origin was incredibly sharp, under the combined attack of the three, he could only parry and had no power to retaliate.

On the other side, Li Yunjing, the Ice God, and the Old Monk Wuchen also faced off against the Azure Emperor.

The Ice God manipulated the essence of ice, and the chilling aura spread, continuously freezing the Azure Emperor's Wood Element vines.

The Old Monk Wuchen chanted Buddhist scriptures, and the golden Buddhist characters continuously purified the Azure Emperor's poison while weakening his power.

Li Yunjing moved around, using his Void Divine Treasury to search for the Azure Emperor's weaknesses, waiting for an opportunity to launch a fatal blow.

The Azure Emperor was surrounded by three people and was under immense pressure.

Although the Wood Element element is ever-renewing, its recovery speed has slowed down due to the restraint of the Ice element and the purification of Buddhist teachings.

He gradually felt his strength waning.

"This won't do, we must break through!" the Azure Emperor thought to himself.

He gritted his teeth and once again unleashed his primal power.

"Ten Thousand Trees Pay Homage to the Ancestor! Cycle of Withering and Flourishing!"

The Azure Emperor roared, unleashing a frenzied burst of his Wood Element- elemental power.

Throughout the palace, countless towering ancient trees sprang up out of thin air, their branches twisting and turning, lashing out at the three of them like countless giant pythons.

This attack was a full-force strike unleashed by the Azure Emperor through burning his very essence, possessing immense power.

"Ice God's Domain!"

"Vajra Body Protection!"

The Ice God and the Old Monk Wuchen attacked simultaneously, focusing all their efforts on defense.

The chilling air intertwined with the Buddha's light, forming a solid barrier.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The giant tree lashed against the barrier repeatedly, producing a deafening roar.

The barrier shook violently and was on the verge of collapse.

While everyone's attention was drawn to the frontal attack, the Azure Emperor's figure silently retreated towards the palace entrance.

He wanted to escape in the chaos.

As long as he escapes back to the depths of the sacred mountain and uses the power of the Heart of Origin, he still has a chance to turn the tide.

"Trying to run away? Did you ask me first?"

A cold voice rang out behind the Azure Emperor.

Li Yunjing's figure appeared behind him like a ghost.

It turned out that Li Yunjing had long anticipated that the Azure Emperor would escape.

He hadn't gone all out until this opportunity came his way.

"Seven Slaughters Heaven-Slaying Dao Sword Book, God Slaying!"

Li Yunjing poured all his spiritual power into the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword, and the black Sword Qi condensed to its extreme, even faintly revealing a trace of gold.

This sword strike incorporated all his insights into swordsmanship, as well as the Buddhist principles taught by the Old Monk Wuchen.

The Sword Qi slashed out, tearing a rift in space itself.

The Azure Emperor's expression changed drastically; it was too late to turn around and defend himself.

"Pfft!"

The Sword Qi pierced in from behind and exited through the chest.

This sword strike not only pierced through the Azure Emperor's physical body, but also struck his soul.

"Ah!"

The Azure Emperor let out a shrill scream, his body swayed, and his aura instantly weakened.

"Now!"

Ice God seized the opportunity and went all out.

"Ice-Sealed World!"

A terrifying chill instantly swept over the Azure Emperor's entire body.

The Azure Emperor's body was frozen at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually turning into an ice sculpture.

At the same time, the Old Monk Wuchen also cast a golden Buddhist seal, which was imprinted on the ice sculpture. The Buddhist script continuously seeped in, purifying the Azure Emperor's soul.

Click!

Cracks spread across the ice sculpture, until it finally shattered completely.

The Azure Emperor perished, both in body and spirit.

Having dealt with the Azure Emperor, everyone immediately turned around to help Mu You and the other two.

At this point, White Emperor was already at his last gasp.

He was covered in wounds and his breathing was disordered.

Seeing the Azure Emperor fall, his last line of defense collapsed.

"No... impossible..." the White Emperor muttered to himself, his eyes unfocused, "We are the masters of the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm, we will not die!"

Mu You sneered, "Even on the verge of death, you're still stubbornly clinging to your delusions."

"It's over."

Li Yunjing flashed and appeared behind White Emperor.

The same sword, God Slaying.

The White Emperor didn't even have time to resist before his soul was pierced by the Sword Qi.

Thump.

The White Emperor's body fell heavily to the ground.

Thus, all three Dao Lords who had ruled the Primordial Origin Dao Realm for three million years perished.

Inside the palace, all was quiet.

Everyone was slightly out of breath.

Although it was a gang fight, the two Dao Lords' last-ditch counterattacks caused considerable trouble for everyone.

Looking at the two corpses on the ground, Mu You sighed, "I never imagined that the three overlords who ruled over a Greater Thousand Dao Realm would die like this."

The Old Monk Wuchen clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist prayer. "Amitabha, all grievances have finally been resolved today."

Ice God stood to the side, his expression complex.

The hatred from years ago, now finally avenged, didn't excite him as he had imagined; instead, he felt a sense of emptiness.

Li Yunjing did not bask in the joy of victory.

He walked up to the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon and examined it carefully.

"Everyone, now is not the time to relax," Li Yunjing said. "Although the three Dao Lords are dead, their soul imprints are still attached to the Heart of Origin the Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain. If the imprints are not completely destroyed, they will be resurrected sooner or later."

Upon hearing this, everyone came to their senses.

"That's right." The Ice God nodded. "We must completely cut off their possibility of resurrection while their remnant souls are still unstable."

Mu You's eyes lit up as he looked at the Divine Punishment Cannon: "This cannon looks quite powerful. Why don't we use it to bombard the Heart of Origin?"

Li Yunjing nodded and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. The Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon was originally forged by the three Dao Lords using their primordial power, making it the most suitable weapon to bombard the Heart of Origin."

True Person Xuanfu stepped forward, carefully examined the control panel of the Divine Punishment Cannon, and said, "No problem. Although the runes on this cannon are complex, the principle is not difficult. I can adjust its muzzle direction to aim at the Heart of Origin atop the Divine Mountain."

"Furthermore, the Azure Emperor and the White Emperor have already infused a considerable amount of spiritual energy, and it's now seventy percent charged. Just a little more energy is needed before it can be launched."

"Alright, then I'll have to Xuanfu," Li Yunjing said.

True Person Xuanfu immediately began adjusting the Divine Punishment Cannon.

The others stood guard to protect the Dharma, while simultaneously replenishing their spiritual energy to accelerate the recharging process.

Half an hour later.

The muzzle of the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon has been turned around and is now aimed at the summit of the divine mountain.

All the runes on the cannon lit up, and terrifying destructive energy rapidly condensed at the muzzle.

"Charging complete! We can launch now!" True Person Xuanfu announced loudly.

Everyone retreated to a safe distance.

Li Yunjing stood at the forefront, looking at the cannon muzzle, and ordered in a deep voice, "Fire!"

The True Person Xuanfu formed hand Method Formula and activated the Primordial Beginning Divine Punishment Cannon.

Buzz!

A deep hum sounded.

A massive, jet-black beam of light shot out from the cannon's muzzle, carrying the destructive power to hurtle straight up to the summit of the sacred mountain.

Wherever the beam of light passed, space itself was distorted and torn apart.

Boom!!!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire Primordial Beginning Dao Realm.

The beam of light struck precisely the Heart of Origin atop the sacred mountain.

A terrifying burst of destructive energy erupted instantly.

The entire Primordial Beginning Divine Mountain began to tremble violently, the earth cracked and huge rocks rolled down.

At the summit of the mountain, a black energy halo continued to expand, turning everything in its path to dust.
