Living in the deep palace

The Holy Son was horrified to discover that his golden and black double helix laws, at the moment Su Chen's Jianmu axis descended, behaved as if a subject were paying homage to an emperor!

"you you……"

"Holy Son, you are mistaken." Su Chen's voice was cold yet vast, as if it were the embodiment of the Great Dao. "Your order and decay are laws (laws). But my Jianmu is a concept (the Dao)!"

"It is the foundation that allows this law to exist!"

"It is the axis that supports your double helix rotation!"

"Before the Axis, all paths must submit!"

Su Chen slowly raised his hand, facing the gray beam of entropy light.

boom!
That pseudo-fifth realm's deadly strike, the instant it collided with Su Chen's ordinary palm, the instant it struck the Dao's might at the Jianmu axis...

laugh--!
It went out like a firefly.

That gray power of the end was absorbed effortlessly by the Jianmu core as nourishment!

The Holy Son turned to stone.

The Twenty Venerables were also petrified.

This...this is the real Great Luo?!
“Now.” Su Chen slowly lowered his hand, his Chaotic Dao Eyes coldly gazing at the Holy Son whose Dao Heart had already collapsed. “It’s my turn.”

On the core of Su Chen's Jianmu tree, the Great Luo Laws of the Ten Origins slowly lit up.

"What you are proud of is decay."

“Then…” A wisp of gray Daoist energy slowly emerged from Su Chen’s fingertips. “I will grant you withering.”

"The Great Luo Law - [Waste]!"

call out!
That wisp of gray Daoist aura ignored space, ignored the laws, ignored the Holy Son's perfect Daoist body, and directly imprinted itself on his double-helix origin!
“No…No—!”

The Holy Son let out a piercing scream! His golden eyes were filled with the terror of death!

He was horrified to discover that his perfectly integrated Dao foundation, the connection between the Void Realm and the present world, had been forcibly severed by Su Chen's single finger!
puff--!
The Holy Son's perfect body shattered at that moment! The golden light of order wailed! The decaying black light collapsed!

"Your fusion was a facade from the start," Su Chen declared coldly. "Only the Jianmu tree is eternal!"

"die!"

Su Chen spread his five fingers, and the phantom of the Jianmu axis crashed down, about to completely devour the Holy Son along with the Ancient Dao Star Refining Array!
“Ahhhhh——!”

The Holy Son was in despair!
However! At this critical moment! Just as Su Chen's devouring attack was about to strike!

A cold, venomous, and endlessly furious supreme will!
A true will of the fifth realm, surpassing even the Great Luo!
It arrived with a roar!
"You brat! How dare you!!!"

boom--!
The ancient star field and the present-day star sea were both frozen in place by this roar!

The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus has descended in his true form!
……

……

"You brat! How dare you!"

This roar was no longer the chorus of the millions of vengeful spirits of the Holy Son, but the will of an individual. Yet this individual transcended all living beings.

The moment that sound rang out, Su Chen's giant Jianmu hand, which was about to devour the Holy Son, suddenly froze! It wasn't that he wanted to stop, but the laws forbade him to move!
Om-!
An indescribable supreme will descended with a thunderous roar, centered on that millstone of flesh and blood! This was neither pressure nor a domain.

This is the realm of law!

It is a unique method used by a true fifth-realm powerhouse to forcibly alter and cover a region of the present-day star sea using his own Dao!

Within this realm of law, he is Heaven! He is the Dao!

Kaka...

At this moment, the fervor and shock on the faces of the twenty Jianmu Venerables, including the Dragon Emperor of the East Sea and the Heavenly Venerable of Ten Thousand Jun, froze instantly.

Their minds are frozen!

Their true fourth realm Dao seed was suppressed!
Their connection with Su Chen's Jianmu tree has been severed!
Within this realm of law, everything below the Great Luo level is but an ant! They are even deprived of the right to think!
The only one who can move and think is the Great Luo Golden Immortal, Su Chen!

boom!
Su Chen's Jianmu axis trembled violently! The all-encompassing power of the Great Luo Dao was running wildly, forcibly creating an absolute pure land within a zhang radius around him!
Beyond this pure land lies the domain of the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus!

Within this pure land lies Su Chen's Great Luo Path!
"Oh?"

A playful yet cold voice rang in Su Chen's ears and simultaneously within his Dao heart.

"A newly promoted Great Luo Immortal can actually withstand my Nether Lotus Domain? You, Jianmu, are truly extraordinary!"

Su Chen suddenly looked up!

On the throne of that blood and flesh millstone, the holy son, whose foundation should have collapsed and whose body should have cracked, slowly stood up straight!

No! That's not the Holy Son!
The Holy Son's handsome features were melting, and his perfect Dao body was being reconstructed! The order and decay in his golden eyes faded away at this moment, replaced by pure blackness!

That is the color of the origin of the Void Realm! That is the final destination of all things!
"Su Chen."

The Holy Son (Lord of the Underworld Lotus) spoke. His voice became aged and vast, as if the endless darkness of the Void Realm was whispering.

Do you know what a terrible crime you have committed?

Su Chen's Chaos Dao Eyes narrowed slightly.

He possessed the Holy Son?!
No! Su Chen instantly understood!

The Holy Son was never an individual! He was merely a perfect shell meticulously crafted by the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus using the Star Refining Array in this mortal star sea!

One body, sufficient to bear the will of his fifth realm true body descending into the world!
"You have ruined my most perfect vessel!"

The voice of the Holy Lord of the Underworld was filled with rage! His dark eyes were fixed on the cracked foundation of the Holy Son! There, the withering Dao aura of Su Chen's Great Luo Law - [Desolation] still lingered! That fifth realm will could not be dispelled for a moment?!

"The Great Luo Law... Excellent, what a Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

The Holy Lord of the Underworld laughed, a ferocious laugh born of extreme rage!
"My grand plan for eternity, my perfect arrival, has been defiled by you, a mere brat!"

"You deserve to die!"

The word "death" was uttered! The Law Domain activated!
The Dark Lotus Decree: All things decay!

boom--!
No beam of light! No energy! No laws! This is an attack from the Fifth Realm! It is the final judgment issued by the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus upon all things within his domain!
He said that decay is inevitable, and therefore all things must decay!
laugh--!
The ten-foot-long pure land that Su Chen had created with the Jianmu axis began to collapse under this decree!
The all-encompassing Great Luo Dao is decaying! The laws of the Ten Great Origins are wailing!
This is the fifth realm!
The Great Luo is all-encompassing, the collection of all laws! The Fifth Realm is the creator who transcends all laws and establishes new laws!
Within the domain of the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus, his law is the highest!
"My Lord!" The souls of the twenty Venerables screamed! Their true Dao seeds were on the verge of death under this single word of decree!
"Humph."

Under the crushing force of that domain, and amidst the impending decay of the Jianmu tree, Su Chen slowly raised his head!

Instead of fear, his chaotic Dao Eyes burned with fighting spirit!
"Lord of the Underworld Lotus, you are wrong."

"Oh?" A hint of amusement flashed in the dark eyes of the Underworld Lotus Saint Lord.

"Your law is decay. I, however, am the Jianmu tree!" Su Chen's voice pierced through the seal of the law domain! "I am the foundation upon which your decay was born!"

"Your laws are established. My path is innate!"

"Before the concept (Tao), your false law (law domain) dares to call itself Heaven?!"

Great Divine Might - World Axis - Reversing Heaven and Earth!

boom--!
At this moment, the central axis of the Jianmu tree actually rotated in reverse!

Click——!
The domain that the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus was determined to obtain, and the supreme decree that caused all things to decay, were forcibly torn open by the reversal of Jianmu at this moment!
"what?!"

For the first time, the unchanging demonic heart of the Underworld Lotus Saint Lord revealed a look of horror!

---
"How dare you defy my laws?!"

The voice of the Holy Lord of the Underworld was filled with disbelief! The law he established was decay! It was the end! It was an inviolable iron law within this domain!

And Su Chen, he actually dared to disregard this ironclad rule! He actually dared to use his Great Luo Dao to forcibly reverse this law of the end!

This is blasphemy!

"Lord of the Underworld Lotus." Su Chen stood in that pure land, his reversal of the Jianmu axis was difficult but firm!

"Your law is a false law. Your path is stolen." Su Chen's Chaotic Dao Eye pierced through the Holy Son's skin, staring directly at the Fifth Realm origin of the Underworld Lotus Holy Lord!
"You are the will of the Ruins. And this is the present world!"

"You established the laws of the Ruins Realm in this mortal world; did you ask for the consent of the mortal world?!"

boom--!
Su Chen's Jianmu axis suddenly accelerated!
Jianmu · Daluodao · [Life]!
A completely opposite Daoist aura suddenly erupted! If the Nether Lotus Saint Lord's method is that all things decay, then Su Chen's Dao is that all things are born!
laugh--!
Life and death! The concept of the Great Luo! And the domain of the Fifth Realm!
At this moment, a supreme collision unfolded within this ancient star field!

Click... click...

The frozen sea of ​​stars trembled! The laws that submitted wailed! The Dao seeds of the twenty isolated Venerables were slowly reviving under the Dao rhythm of [Life]!

"You...you brat!"

The Holy Lord of the Underworld was furious! He was horrified to discover that his invincible domain of law had been shaken!
Su Chen's Jianmu axis seems to be the embodiment of the will of the present-day star sea! It is instinctively rejecting the foreign fifth-realm technique of the Underworld Lotus Saint Lord!
Is this a suppression of permissions?!

The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus instantly realized! He had underestimated the Jianmu Tree!
The Great Luo encompasses all things and is the cornerstone of all heavens and worlds. And the Jianmu tree is the cornerstone within the cornerstones! It is the axis of all worlds!
Su Chen, this Great Luo Golden Immortal, actually has the highest authority over the Great Dao in this mortal star sea!

The fifth realm is the creation of laws. But if the higher authority in the mortal world (Su Chen) doesn't approve it, his fifth realm's laws won't take effect?!
"No! No! No! This is impossible! How can a mere Great Luo Immortal be above the Fifth Realm?!"

The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus was trembling violently!

"You are not superior," Su Chen declared coldly. "I am the foundation!"

"Without an axle, how can your wheel (the domain of law) rotate?!"

boom!
Su Chen took a step forward! The ten-foot-long pure land expanded dramatically!
Jianmu Divine Might - All Laws Return to One!

The reversing axis of the Jianmu tree suddenly stopped! Forward rotation! Reversal! In that instant, they merged into one! Transforming into nothingness!

Om-!
The invincible domain of the Underworld Lotus Saint Lord, the law that caused all things to decay, was forcibly erased under the unification of the Jianmu axis?!
puff!
The Holy Son's body trembled violently! The will of the Nether Lotus Holy Lord, which had descended, was actually shaken unstable by the backlash of this Great Dao!
"Excellent, excellent, excellent! What a magnificent Jianmu pivot! What a magnificent Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

The rage in the Dark Lotus Saint Lord's eyes subsided, replaced by boundless greed!
"I misjudged him. I always thought that the Holy Son's appearance was the perfect anchor. I always thought that the Star Refining Array was the perfect bridge."

“Now it seems…” The Dark Lotus Saint Lord’s dark eyes were fixed on Su Chen’s Jianmu axis!

"You! Su Chen! You, the host of Jianmu! You, with the highest authority in this world! You are the most perfect beacon of descent!"

"Haha...hahahaha!"

The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus laughed wildly, looking up at the sky!

"My grand plan for eternity has not failed! It has come a step further!"

"Su Chen! Do you think you've won? Do you think you've shaken my domain? No! You've activated my grand formation! You've awakened my true form!"

"I want your access to the Jianmu tree!"

boom--!
The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus actually abandoned the body of the Holy Son! That fifth realm will was suddenly ripped away!
After losing the support of his will and being eroded by the law of [Waste], the Holy Son's body turned into ashes with a "poof"!
Not good! Su Chen's Chaotic Dao Eyes suddenly contracted! He was about to...

"Welcome to the true form of the Holy Lord!"

That millstone of flesh and blood, that ancient star-refining array, came alive at this moment! The countless vengeful spirits stopped howling and began to chant devoutly!
boom--!
The Ancient Path Starfield shattered! No! It dissolved!

That grinding wheel of flesh spun wildly, tearing apart the barrier between the mortal world and the ruins!

An enormous, pitch-black lotus flower, beyond description, was slowly squeezing in from the deepest part of the Ruins!
This is the true form of the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus! This is the true purpose of the Star Refining Array!
The Holy Son is the key! Su Chen's Great Luo Dao Power is the catalyst!
This grand formation isn't for incubating the fifth realm at all! It's for smuggling the true body of the fifth realm into the realm!
---
Rumble——!
The entire mortal star system trembled! That pitch-black Nether Lotus was so enormous! A single petal of its was more vast than an entire star field!
On its jet-black lotus petals burns pure fifth-realm decaying fire!

This is the primordial flower of the Void Realm! This is the true form of the Nether Lotus Saint Lord!
The instant it descended! Su Chen's Jianmu axis emitted an unprecedented mournful cry! The true Dao of the present-day star sea wailed!
so horrible!

The Dragon Emperor of the East Sea and twenty other Venerables regained their sanity under the protection of the Jianmu Tree. But they wished they hadn't! They were witnessing a god! They were witnessing the descent of the Ruins!
"Su Chen!"

The vast will of the Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus emanated from the dark lotus heart!
"You have nowhere to escape! Your authority over the Jianmu tree was granted to you by the mortal world. But I am the Void Realm!"

"On this bridge of the Star Refining Array, the laws of the mortal world have no power! The laws of the Void Domain are mine to decide!"

boom--!
At the base of the Nether Lotus, the roots that were firmly planted in the Ruins stirred!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Billions of jet-black roots pierced through space and time! Pierced through the laws of nature! They frantically coiled towards Su Chen's Jianmu core!

This isn't an attack! This is predation!

The Holy Lord of the Underworld Lotus wants to capture Su Chen alive! He wants to devour the Jianmu Axis! He wants to seize the highest authority in this world!
He wants to use the Jianmu tree as a bridge to graft the decay of the ruins onto the great path of the present world!
He wants to pollute the entire cosmos!

In an instant, it broke through the entire star sea, allowing the entire star sea left behind by the fall of Chen Sheng to merge into the Void Domain World.

Since then.

He can then unleash the full power of his true form, no longer needing to hold himself back! (End of Chapter)
