Living in the deep palace

Clang——!!!
Behind Su Chen, the silver-white [Divine Weapon Branch] suddenly lit up, and billions of metallic sharp energies soared into the sky.

He didn't use any defensive measures, but instead simply spread his arms wide, letting the nine water dragons crash into him.

But just before the impact, countless tiny metallic vortexes appeared on his body surface.

That's the Devouring property of the [Divine Weapon Branch]—metal generates water, and water can also generate metal!

Rumble!
Nine water dragons, powerful enough to shatter stars, crashed heavily into Su Chen.

The scene that was expected—Su Chen being smashed into mincemeat—did not occur.

Instead, the nine water dragons seemed to have crashed into a bottomless funnel. Their massive bodies were forcibly decomposed and devoured the moment they touched Su Chen's skin!
"How is this possible?! He's absorbing the power of the formation?!" the deputy commander screamed in terror.

"This is what they call...embracing all rivers!"

Su Chen took a step forward, and his figure instantly grew to 100,000 feet!

This time, he truly went all out.

The enormous chaotic dharma form stood with its feet on the void and its head above the stars, directly in the middle of the Milky Way, cutting off the flow of water!

"Since you've come to me, I won't stand on ceremony."

Su Chen lowered his head, and that huge mouth seemed to lead to an abyss in another dimension.

"Immortality, Gluttony, Drinking the Rivers Dry!!"

woohoo-

A terrifying suction force erupted!

The suction was so strong that it even caused a substantial spatial collapse around Su Chen's mouth.

The celestial river, which had flowed for countless eons, let out a mournful cry. The water that had been flowing downstream was forcibly sucked back, transforming into a massive column of water tens of thousands of miles thick, which continuously poured into Su Chen's mouth!
"No—!! Our ship!!"

"I can't control it!!"

Those naval forces that had deployed their warships on the river were in deep trouble.

The river water was sucked away, and their boats became "ingredients".

Tens of thousands of warships, along with the celestial soldiers on them, were like scallions in noodles, screaming as they were swept into the water column. Before they even reached Su Chen's mouth, they were crushed into a bloody mist by the terrifying water pressure, becoming a garnish for this grand feast.

Gulu! Gulu! Gulu!

Su Chen swallowed hard.

Every sip is like taking millions of tons of pure water from the heavens.

This extremely cold, heavy, and highly corrosive divine water attempted to freeze Su Chen's internal organs as soon as it entered his stomach.

"Want to rebel? Chaos Furnace, forge me!!"

Within Su Chen's body, the seventh [Chaos Branch] was operating wildly, transforming into a huge gray fire millstone, forcibly grinding, purifying, and converting all the Heavenly River Water.

Aquatic wood!
The vast source of water flowed down the trunk and into every leaf of the Longevity Tree.

slam-la-

The Tree of Immortality is rejoicing and growing wildly!
The internal universe, originally thirty million miles in size, began to expand violently once again under the impact of this force.

Forty million li... fifty million li... sixty million li!
Within that sea of ​​stars, besides the original military and soul stars, numerous azure "water stars" began to coalesce. A vast ocean was born in the starry sky, encircling the Tree of Immortality and nourishing its roots.

Gold (divine weapon), Wood (Taoist tree), Water (Celestial River), Fire (Chaos/Starfire), Earth (Netherworld).

this moment.

The Five Elements Laws within Su Chen's body have finally achieved a perfect closed loop!

The five elements generate each other, creating an endless cycle of life!
boom!
A terrifying aura, surpassing even the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm and even the late-stage of an ordinary Great Luo realm, suddenly erupted from Su Chen, who was drinking water!

click-

The spatial barrier of the Heavenly River Realm could not withstand this pressure and cracked open with countless fissures.

"break!!!"

Su Chen let out a long roar, the sound wave spurting out the remaining river water in his mouth, turning it into a torrential downpour.

The chaotic energy emanating from his body grew increasingly dense, even beginning to condense into a tangible armor. His skin became more resilient, and every inch of his flesh contained power sufficient to split the heavens and earth.

Grand Luo Golden Immortal... Late Stage!
Become!

But it's not over yet.

Looking at the Tianhe River, which was mostly dried up and had its riverbed covered in silt, Su Chen's greed not only did not diminish, but intensified.

"Now that we've drunk the water, we can't waste the riverbed."

"This is divine mud that has been washed by the Milky Way for hundreds of millions of years. It's perfect for reinforcing the foundation of my Immortal Realm!"

Su Chen stretched out his massive hand and plunged it directly into the bottomless mud.

"rise!!"

Rumbling--

He actually pulled up the entire riverbed of the Milky Way, the earth's veins that stretched for millions of miles!
"A madman!! This guy is a madman!!"

The surviving deputy commander of the navy witnessed this scene, and his resolve completely crumbled.

This isn't an enemy; this is the end of the world!
Not only do they kill people, but they also drink water, and after drinking the water, they tear down the land!
"receive!"

With a thought, Su Chen opened a huge entrance in his inner universe, swallowing the million-mile-long riverbed of the Heavenly River along with the remaining water in one gulp.

This is the end.

The Heavenly River Realm is the strategic hub of the Heavenly Court and the base of 800,000 naval troops.

Completely disappeared.

All that remained was an empty, dark void filled with spatial rifts, silently recounting the carnage that had just transpired.

"belch--"

Su Chen, now back to his normal size, patted his belly with satisfaction.

"Late stage of the Great Luo Immortal realm, with the Five Elements fully perfected."

"I am now..."

Su Chen clenched his fist, feeling the power of the rules flowing through his fingertips.

"Even if a true fifth-realm avatar came, I could still easily defeat him!"

"but……"

Su Chen looked up, gazing into the depths of the heavens.

There, four terrifying auras were rapidly approaching.

In particular, one of them carried a mirror-like shimmer that stung his brow.

"Has the main character finally arrived?"

Su Chen grinned, his figure gradually fading away and merging into the void.

"Now that we've eaten and drunk our fill, it's time to go home and entertain our guests."

"I hope you... won't be scared by the 'return gift' I've prepared."

……

The Heavenly Realm, above the clouds.

Four majestic figures, riding on auspicious clouds, descended upon the ruins like four blazing suns.

The Eastern Heavenly King, clad in azure dragon armor, had eyes as sharp as lightning.

The Western Heavenly King, wielding the White Tiger Killing Sword, exudes a murderous aura that soars to the heavens.

The Southern Heavenly King stands with one arm, his face ashen and somber.

The Northern Heavenly King, though weak in spirit, was filled with extreme resentment, staring intently at the darkness below.

In the center of the four people, a simple and unadorned ancient bronze mirror floated.

This mirror appears ordinary, but its back is engraved with extremely intricate innate Dao patterns, faintly exuding a supreme pressure that seems to freeze time and space.

【Haotian Mirror】!
"What's going on? The supplies from the Heavenly River Realm haven't arrived yet?"

The Eastern Heavenly King, who was in charge of overseeing the grand formation, frowned and looked at the Northern Heavenly King. "Old Northern, didn't Li Yin, whom you sent, say that everything would be foolproof? Activating the Haotian Mirror once consumes a huge amount of energy. If it weren't for the spiritual energy of the Milky Way, the four of us old bones would probably be drained dry!"

Upon hearing this, the Northern Heavenly King's face grew even uglier, and he gritted his teeth, saying:
"Li Yin... has gone missing."

"Not only Li Yin, but the entire Tianhe Realm... is gone too."

"What?!" The other three Heavenly Kings were shocked.

"What do you mean by 'gone'?" the Western Heavenly King asked sternly.

“The literal meaning.” The Northern Heavenly King took a deep breath, his voice trembling. “The news that just came back… that Su Chen, disguised as Li Yin, infiltrated the Heavenly River Realm, ate Tianpeng, consumed the supplies, and finally… drank the entire Heavenly River dry!!”

Quiet.

A deathly silence fell. The Four Heavenly Kings exchanged bewildered glances, each seeing a mixture of absurdity and terror in the other's eyes.

That's the Milky Way!
That's the Weak Water!
That terrifying body of water, capable of submerging an entire world, was actually... drunk dry?!
Is this even human? This is a bottomless pit!
“No wonder…” The Southern Heavenly King clenched his one arm, his eyes blazing with murderous intent, “No wonder His Majesty used the Haotian Mirror to annihilate him directly.”

"This prodigy is growing too fast! From the early stage of the Great Luo realm to now being able to devour the Heavenly River, it's only been a few days!"

"If we let him live any longer, even just one more day, he might even tear a piece off the Heavenly Court!"

"Everyone!"

The Eastern Heavenly King took a sudden step forward, unleashing his full power as a Great Luo Perfection cultivator.

"Since we've run out of supplies, let's burn our own resources!"

"No matter the cost, this fiend must be killed today!!"

"agree!"

"kill!!"

The four Heavenly Kings attacked simultaneously, unleashing four mighty, ocean-like streams of Great Luo Origin into the central Haotian Mirror without regard for cost.

Om-! ! !
The Haotian Mirror, which had been dormant for countless years, has finally awakened.

An indescribable beam of light shot out from the mirror.

This light is neither white nor gold, but a transparent radiance representing "the beginning" and "order"—[The Supreme Divine Light]!
The beam of light instantly pierced the boundary between the Heavenly Domain and the Ruins Domain.

……

[Ruins Realm, Immortal Imperial City]

Just as Su Chen returned to the Imperial City, before he had even finished digesting the Heavenly River Water in his stomach...

The sky is cracked.

There was no thunder, no warning.

A transparent beam of light, like the sword of judgment from the heavens, fell straight down towards the Immortal City!
"coming!"

Su Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.

He could clearly feel that as the beam of light fell, the surrounding space, time, and laws were all frozen in place!
The wind has stopped blowing, and the clouds have stopped drifting.

The monks cheering inside the city remained with their mouths agape, their eyes still brimming with the joy of the previous moment, yet they were like insects trapped in amber, unable to move.

Even the leaves of the Longevity Tree stopped swaying at this moment.

Only Su Chen, thanks to the invulnerability of the Chaos Longevity Body, was still able to move around with difficulty.

But the feeling was like being trapped in solidified cement, where every movement required a thousand times the usual effort!

"Is this... the power of the Haotian Mirror?"

"Time and space are forbidden, causality is locked."

Su Chen looked up at the Taiqing Divine Light that was about to crash into the city's protective formation. There was no fear in his eyes, only burning fighting spirit.

"You want to eliminate me?"

"dream!"

Su Chen stomped his foot suddenly.

"Tianhe, come out!!"

Rumbling--

His inner universe opened up again.

He used the Milky Way, which he had just swallowed and had not yet fully digested, as a weapon and spat it out!

Wow!

The mighty Weak Water River surges into the sky, encircling the Eternal Life Imperial City, transforming into a water curtain that stretches for tens of thousands of miles!

At the same time, the underworld also responded.

The Yellow Springs River surged upwards, intertwining with the Heavenly River and the Weak Water.

Life and death, one light and one heavy.

The two completely different divine waters, under the harmonization of Su Chen's [Law of Chaos], actually merged perfectly, transforming into a gray chaotic river!

"Eternal Life - Chaotic Sky Curtain!"

Su Chen lifted the sky with both hands, forcefully pushing the chaotic river upwards!

Zizzi——! ! !
The divine light of the Supreme Purity collided with the chaotic sky.

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a tooth-grinding melting sound.

The indestructible Haotian Mirror Light, which was said to be able to suppress all laws, was actually blocked when it encountered this Chaos River that had merged the essence of the two realms!
The mirror was frantically evaporating the river water, while the river water was also frantically consuming the mirror's energy.

"What?! It's blocked?!"

Above the heavens, the Eastern Heavenly King, who was in charge of the grand formation, almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he saw this scene.

"That's... Heavenly River Water?! And Yellow Springs Water?!"

"This kid... he actually merged these two rivers?! How did he do that?! These are two extremes that are incompatible, like water and fire!!"

The Western Heavenly King's face turned ashen: "He's using our Milky Way water to block our Haotian Mirror?! This is simply... outrageous!!"

"Don't panic!"

The Southern Heavenly King gritted his teeth, his one arm trembling violently, and his inner energy burning like it was free.

"Although the Heavenly River Water is powerful, it is ultimately an inanimate object! The Haotian Mirror is an Imperial Weapon!"

"I refuse to believe he can keep blocking forever!"

"Increase the output! Burn! Burn their lifespan too!!"

boom!
The Four Heavenly Kings went all out.

The light from the Haotian Mirror surged threefold again! The pillar of light became like a solid crystal pillar, bearing the weight to crush everything, and pressed down fiercely!
Click!Click!
Cracks began to appear in the chaotic sky below.

Su Chen's arms suddenly sank, his bones cracked, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"The pressure is getting bigger..."

Su Chen felt the force that seemed to be crushing him into a meat patty, but the smile on his face became even more ferocious.

"Four old fogies, getting all worked up already?"

"However, simply taking a beating is not in my nature."

Su Chen's eyes flashed with purple light, his gaze piercing through the pillar of light as he stared intently at the ancient bronze mirror floating high in the sky.

"That mirror...it looks delicious."

"Since you've brought it down..."

"Then I'm not welcome!"

hum-

Behind Su Chen, the [Divine Weapon Branch] and the [Chaos Branch] trembled simultaneously.

"Divine weapon disintegrates! Man and weapon become one!"

Click, click, click!
Su Chen's body suddenly underwent a strange change.

His arms transformed into two enormous chaotic blades, his legs became propulsion nozzles, and his entire being instantly transformed into a humanoid missile exuding an aura of destruction!
"Bones! Giants! Defend the city!"

"I'm going to... pluck the stars!!"

boom!
Su Chen abandoned maintaining the sky barrier and actually braved the destructive Taiqing Divine Light, going against the current!

His body was frantically rubbed against the pillar of light, his skin was scorched and his flesh was melted, and then he was instantly reborn under the nourishment of the Longevity Tree!

He was like a raging dragon swimming upstream, soaring straight into the sky with an indomitable spirit!

Target—Haotian Mirror!

"He's gone mad?! He actually dared to physically collide with the Haotian Mirror Light?!"

The four kings in heaven were dumbfounded.

Traveling against the current in the Taiqing Divine Light? What's the difference between that and swimming in lava?!

"He's asking for it! He's getting more and more arrogant!"

"Give him his wish!"

"Suppress with all your might!!"

Burn him! Let his soul be scattered to the winds!

The four kings roared, and the Haotian Mirror shone even brighter.

But Su Chen's speed increased rapidly, faster and faster! (End of Chapter)
