Chapter 2029 Who Can Compete? The Struggle Between Martial Immortals and Divine Heroes
At this moment, in the eyes of the primordial spirit master on the ground, he saw a huge wheel of life and death rising from Emperor Kang Heng's body, faintly visible throughout the world, covering the entire world and pressing down on him.

Beneath this Wheel of Life and Death lies countless deities.

Those deities were the primordial spirits of countless divine masters that Emperor Kangheng had slain over the years.

After these primordial spirits perished, they all contributed to Emperor Kangheng's great achievements, becoming the whetstones on his path to imperial dominance, and helping others rise to prominence.

The divine path is elevated, thus elevating the status of martial arts immortals.

The martial arts immortals dominate a region, their power beyond compare.

Each rotation of this enormous wheel of life and death caused his thoughts to buzz incessantly, clinging tightly to his body and spinning forcefully, pressing him firmly to the ground and preventing him from escaping.

Let alone escape, they couldn't even struggle, because their divine abilities were suppressed too severely by the peak blood and qi of the martial immortal, and they couldn't even use a trace of Dao qi to resist.

Throughout the entire universe, a fierce and domineering masculine energy came from all directions, constantly surging and suppressing him.

This feeling reminded him of his first attempt at daytime sightseeing.

The world was a vast expanse of red, filled with light and brightness, making me feel incredibly uncomfortable, like a fish on a chopping board, with waves of powerlessness and suffocation washing over me.

With a loud shout, the area within a radius of twenty miles was filled with masculine energy, causing the divine spirits on the ground and in the sky to go mad and suffer, their thoughts powerless, and almost no one could use Taoist arts, Buddhist teachings, or runes.

It was the martial arts immortal Kang Hengdi who shouted loudly, stopping the other primordial spirits from attacking him. Then he raised his hand and sucked up the primordial spirit expert on the ground.

He glanced at the primordial spirit in his hand, and with a fierce and domineering tremor, he shattered the person's primordial spirit into two halves.

At first, the man transformed into a Buddhist bodhisattva in a shock, trying to resist the attack. However, in close combat, the martial arts immortal was the best. No matter how powerful his bodhisattva form was, it could not withstand the close-range shock of the martial arts immortal. The bodhisattva's body was torn in two, and the lower half of the body dissipated into spiritual light and disappeared. Only the extremely weak upper half of the body was captured by the martial arts immortal's palm.

Only then did the two hundred primordial spirits in the sky react to the loud shout, and everyone looked surprised.

"Good heavens! That shout just now was as loud as a thunderclap!"

After someone stabilized their spirit, they cried out in shock and anger.

"The Martial Immortal is indeed as recorded in history books, possessing the might of Xing Tian, ​​with every punch and kick carrying immense majesty!"

"That's why we must stop martial arts immortals from continuing to commit evil deeds, wreaking havoc on the world, and causing immense suffering and harm!"

"We are joining forces today to uphold justice on behalf of Heaven!"

"Yes! Today we act on behalf of Heaven, and future generations will surely be grateful for our actions to save the world!"

"This martial arts immortal has been hiding his true strength for far too long. He has been secretly cultivating for so long by taking advantage of the relationships with the emperors of the mortal realm, and it was only recently that we discovered his weakness! Everyone, today we must vanquish this demon and eliminate this monster, together kill Emperor Kangheng and the Empress, and restore peace to the world!"

These primordial spirits roared one after another, their cries rising and falling. No one wanted to capture Emperor Kangheng and the Empress alive and slowly judge whether they were guilty or innocent. They only wanted to eliminate Emperor Kangheng and the Empress, the martial arts immortals, today, to achieve a great feat in history, so that future generations would sing their praises again and again, for thousands of years, leaving their names for ten thousand years, and to live on with heaven and earth.

Such widespread fame and renown are even more attractive to them.

It will further help them achieve historical feats and become great people.

Then, one by one, these primordial spirits ascended high, some with seven halos appearing behind them, others transforming into Vajra Bodhisattvas, and still others into Yaksha Kings or Rakshasa Kings. Each primordial spirit displayed great divine power, incomparably majestic, and solemn in appearance. Then, they unleashed their magical treasures, supernatural powers, or vast runic territories, all of which bombarded the Renming Hall beneath their feet, and the Kangheng Emperor and Empress.

They vowed to kill these two together.

They will be grateful to the whole world.

Even though Emperor Kangheng was a martial arts immortal, facing the siege of more than two hundred primordial spirits, he had no time to interrogate the primordial spirit in his hand, nor to investigate the truth of the Immortal Cauldron of Inquiry. First, he used a ball of yang energy to seal the primordial spirit of this person. Then, his eyes narrowed into slits, with a cold light flashing. In that cold light, there was no longer the usual gentleness and elegance, only the calmness of decisive killing. He clenched his fist with one hand, forming an extremely obscure fist seal, which faced the sky.

"Since you truly intend to kill my wife and me, leaving us no way to prove our innocence, then we have offended you greatly today. Your deaths and demise at my hands can only be blamed on the destiny of this generation that has brought this struggle between the martial and divine paths."

"Martial arts and the divine way cannot coexist peacefully."

Having said that, Emperor Kangheng uttered a single word: "Pass!"

"go with!"

Boom!

The primordial spirits in the sky were using magical artifacts, supernatural powers, or talismans to kill Emperor Kangheng and the Empress. They glanced down and saw Emperor Kangheng with his fist clenched, facing the sky, uttering words as he launched an attack.

As soon as the word "past" was uttered, two enormous white clouds, like spheres, burst out of Emperor Kangheng's mouth and soared into the sky, rising more than a hundred feet high, each covering an extremely vast area.

This was the martial arts immortal Emperor Kang Heng circulating his yang energy and blood, his boiling breath causing the boiling hot air he exhaled to transform into a billowing white vapor that stretched for ten or twenty miles, evaporating and boiling between heaven and earth! It was like thunder and lightning, heaven-burning flames, steam overflowing everywhere, its momentum truly incomparably powerful and fierce, invincible!
To ordinary mortals, it was merely a cloud of white vapor exhaled by a martial artist, a gust of hot air that dissipated into white vapor upon encountering the setting sun and cold wind, just as ordinary people could see their own breath in the air during winter—a perfectly normal occurrence. However, to the two hundred-odd primordial spirits in the sky, this cloud of white vapor was anything but ordinary. To them, it was two blazing suns rising into the sky, radiating intense vitality and containing unparalleled masculine power, hurtling towards them.

At the same time, the high-pitched and intense sound waves vibrated violently and were transmitted to the heavens. In the eyes of many primordial spirit masters, it was as if their thoughts were in a canyon bombarded by thunder and lightning, exploding with thunder louder than summer thunder, which immediately made their thoughts uncomfortable and caused them to have terrible headaches.

The sound waves vibrated in concentric circles, surging towards the sky.

Soar higher,

Then it spread in all directions.

The higher the pitch, the louder the sound waves, and the more destructive they become.

Under the shock of this sonic wave, many primordial spirits with slightly lower cultivation levels could no longer maintain their original form and exploded one after another, along with the attack dissipating.

The number of primordial spirit attacks aimed at Emperor Kangheng was reduced by half, and the threat was also reduced by half.

but!

Emperor Kangheng's attack was far more extensive than that!

What truly makes him formidable is not the sonic shockwave, but this time, the "past" fist imprint bombardment!
As his fist struck out, the fist imprint arrived at the sky slightly slower than the sound wave. When the fist imprint reached the sky, a fist intent even more powerful and intense than the sonic shockwave pressed towards the center of the sky. This fist intent was so pure, fusing the purest yang power of martial arts and qi and blood. With a single punch, the universe was engulfed in blazing yang heat; heaven and earth alike were directly exposed to the sun, with nowhere to hide. One after another, primordial spirits were vaporized by the yang fist intent.

Those with slightly weaker cultivation levels had their souls dissipate and their spirits vanish.

Although the powerful individuals were not completely destroyed, their faces were pale, gloomy, and extremely ugly.

After this battle, the number of primordial spirit magic treasures, supernatural powers, and runes destroyed by the Chaorenming Hall was reduced by more than half, leaving only a few scattered ones that continued to attack Emperor Kangheng.

"The Eternal and Unchanging True Self Great Dao of the Nine Heavens Divine Land!"

"The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden's Great Technique of the Divine Land of Jade Pool!"

"The Nine Transformations of Thunder in the Exquisite Divine Land, a Heavenly Divine Appearance!"

"The ultimate divine sense of the Heavenly Dao Sect!"

"The Heavenly Finger of Wangxiantai!"

"The Yin-Yang Harmony Sect's Yin-Yang Wheel Calculation!"

Emperor Kangheng stared angrily at the few remaining divine powers in the sky.

"Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, the emergence of this martial arts immortal has attracted the six great holy lands of the previous dynasty to appear together and besiege me. The six great holy lands of the previous dynasty, and the three great holy lands of the present dynasty, Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion, a total of nine great holy lands from both dynasties, are besieging me. It is truly an honor for me."

"Hmph! Your six holy lands have been surrounding my Kangding Kingdom, wanting to restore the glory of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, wanting to reclaim the glory of your six holy lands! I didn't expect that Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion would join forces with you to besiege me this time. Is it because my identity as a martial arts immortal has made Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion wary, so they turned a blind eye to your attack?"

"I don't care why Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion are willing to cooperate with you this time, nor do I care what negotiations you have reached with the three holy lands. Your sudden appearance makes me suspect that you are behind the Gewu Immortal Cauldron. Only you would be so eager to investigate the mysteries of my Kangding Kingdom and restore the Five Kingdoms and Ten Generations of Prosperity! Therefore, all of you six holy lands, stay here today!"

Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion were the three sacred sites jointly selected by the best talents in the world after the establishment of the Kangding Kingdom.

Before the Kangding Kingdom, each dynasty also had its own sacred sites.

This is an agreement between the divine and the secular world.

The divine way maintains peace in the secular world, and the secular world gathers the world's finest resources to supply the divine way in exchange for the divine way's protection and peace for generations to come. This is the established agreement between the divine way and the secular world.

In this world, just as dynasties rise and fall in the secular realm, sects also rise and fall in the divine realm.

There are rising stars who are dissatisfied with the former and complain about everything. Like a tiger fallen to the plains, they rise up and take the place of the former.

For example, the six sacred sites of the righteous path before the Kangding Kingdom were the Nine Heavens Divine Land, the Jade Pool Divine Land, the Exquisite Divine Land, the Heavenly Dao Gate, the Viewing Platform, and the Yin-Yang Harmony Sect.

However, with the fall of the previous dynasty and the rise of the Kangding Kingdom, the six sacred sites of the previous dynasty also perished along with history, disappearing without a trace. Only the three sacred sites of Yujing Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, and Tianshi Mansion rose to prominence, becoming the leading forces of the righteous path in the world.

It was indeed quite surprising that the six holy lands of the previous dynasty joined forces with other righteous sects to besiege Emperor Kangheng.

However, the six holy lands are ultimately among the righteous paths, so although it is surprising, it is not too contrary to the will of Heaven or too unacceptable.

It was just a short-term surprise.

Emperor Kangheng spread his five fingers wide, and as he spoke, each word was incredibly loud and deafening, causing the palaces near Renming Hall, the broken rocks on the ground, and the fragments of broken wood to tremble violently.

It seemed that his anger could no longer be concealed at this point.

They have come to deeply suspect the intentions of the six holy lands, that they are plotting something sinister, and that they are the culprits who almost killed the Empress.

Therefore, it is understandable that Emperor Kangheng would reveal his murderous intent when faced with the hatred of his wife's murder.

"Emperor Kangheng, the Empress suffers from cannibalism and has devoured countless crew members of the Shenzhou fleet. Her crimes are heinous and unforgivable. Instead of handing over the Empress to us for our disposal and atoning for your sins to the world, you have repeatedly caused the death of the cannibalistic Empress. You are the one who has committed a heinous crime and deserves to die!"

"That's right. Although our six holy lands are from the previous dynasty, the only thing that remains unchanged is that we are righteous sects, only our power is not as great as before! The righteous path upholds justice in the world, fights for the people, and eliminates injustice. It is the rightful duty of us righteous people. Eliminating you and the Empress today is the will of Heaven, and justice is on our side!"

"Emperor Kangheng, why don't you surrender and atone for your sins with your death? Do you really want the whole world to gang up on you and your husband?"

The six holy lands, along with other divine masters who were not harmed by the fist intent, once again besieged Emperor Kangheng in the Renming Hall.

Seeing that the six holy lands and more than a dozen other people were unharmed by his fist intent and that their primordial spirit attacks were not hindered, Emperor Kangheng's eyes widened in anger and his face showed surprise.

His fist technique is extraordinary, comparable to the three classic Buddhist scriptures: the Past Sutra, the Present Sutra, and the Future Sutra. When cultivated to a high level, it can rival the heavens and earth, and almost live as long as the heavens and earth.

Unexpectedly, someone could withstand his punch.

Firstly, the other party's cultivation was indeed extraordinary; each of them was a peerless master standing above the peak of the divine path.

Secondly, there were indeed too many Nascent Soul experts here. Faced with such a large-scale attack, his offensive power was inevitably scattered, making it difficult to defeat the enemy in one blow. Therefore, it was normal for some to escape unscathed.

"Further discussion is pointless."

"If you want to fight, then come on."

"Let's see if you have the strength to make me use offensive methods other than fist techniques."

"I have always wanted to compete with you masters of the divine path, and today I can finally fulfill my long-held wish."

"Get down here, all of you."

Emperor Kangheng sneered, loosened his five fingers, then suddenly tightened them, pressing down violently. A huge ball of white gas appeared in the void above, spreading out like a sphere over an incredibly vast area.

That white mist was exactly the same attack that the first Nascent Soul expert who fell to the ground received!
They are all the robust blood and qi, and masculine power of martial arts immortals, condensed into a steaming mass of qi!
Emperor Kangheng wanted to suppress even the last remaining masters in the heavens onto the ground!
