Destiny is ashes

Chapter 1169 Heaven and Earth Shatter, the Divine Capital Shattered (34)

"stop it!"

Of course, there were also those who weren't blasted away, but still managed to escape the protective range of the array.

A white streak of light flashed by, and wherever it passed, the intense heat shockwaves ceased, lava froze, and the blazing firestorm vanished into thin air.

King De did his utmost to protect the people from the aftermath of the clash of supernatural powers. He did indeed save many, rescuing survivors from one block after another and taking them into his inner array.

Only now did he understand why the officials hadn't used their supernatural powers to move the void and relocate the residents of the capital... because An Jing's supernatural powers not only shattered the material world but also shook the void!

If it weren't for the fact that Prince De, as the King of Zhen, also possessed the authority of imperial blood, even An Jing wouldn't have been able to suppress his power, allowing him to use ten or even dozens of times more power to suppress the aftershocks of An Jing's divine abilities. He wouldn't even have been able to complete the 'Tai Xu Teleportation' at all. Those who were teleported would have been shattered the moment they entered the Tai Xu, turning into blood mist!
Not only that, even a trace of An Jing's power could threaten the protective shield he created. This power was of a higher quality than that of Chunyang Tianjun, and it was almost endless. As long as it was not destroyed, it would forever shatter everything.

An Jing has truly begun to delve into the laws of heaven and earth, and his supernatural powers possess the characteristics of Lingxiao!
How can he be so strong?!
Such a startling thought flashed through his mind, but the Prince of De was not particularly surprised - An Jing's ability to defeat all the Divine Treasures of the past and present at the Divine Treasure Realm was enough to prove that he was a monster who was completely unreasonable.

For this kind of monster, given a chance, rising to the top in one step is not difficult at all.

What truly astonished him was An Jing's determination.

He actually... dared to kill someone?!
Although it sounds strange, An Jing has never been lenient with his hands. Even back in the refugee camp, he killed people like cutting grass and hanging heads like arranging flowers. Moreover, after leaving the Suspended Life Manor, he continued to kill people all the way.

But for some reason, everyone, including the civil and military officials of Da Chen, felt that An Jing was not the kind of person who would do something that would affect ordinary people. Even though almost no one in the entire Huai Xu Realm had thought about this issue, they subconsciously believed that An Jing would not do such a thing.
why?
"what!!!"

Unable to comprehend the reason, Prince De had saved hundreds of thousands of people, yet the number he failed to save was a hundred or a thousand times greater. Gazing at the endless flames surrounding the capital, which had transformed into a golden-red inferno, he roared in anguish, "Damn it! Judging Gu Yunzhi was wrong, the court was indeed wrong! But An Jing, isn't your indiscriminate killing of innocent people also wrong?!"

Unable to dissuade him, the Prince of De could only abruptly turn his head and look up at the warrior in the sky: "An Jing, do you really want to destroy the capital? The Great Chen Dynasty is in turmoil, and countless people have died!"

"Anjing! Don't go astray!"

An Jing did not answer, but Gu Yeqi's laughter rang out from Tianwai Shenjing. The girl's voice shook the heavens and earth, filled with unbridled joy: "Your Highness, you are indeed a good person, but, before today, has no one in this world died?!"

Her voice grew louder and louder, her teeth clenched with increasing rage: "Does that mean the deaths of the countless refugees who wandered in the northern part of Beixuan Sacrifice Continent before today didn't count as deaths?!"

"If we don't destroy the capital, destroy the Great Chen... even after thousands of years, blood will still flow in this world, and people will still die!"

"The blood-red clouds that permeate the heavens and earth will eventually be dispersed by a calamity; how can you blame the thunder!"

At this moment, Anjing, 'Jie' closed his eyes.

And so, the enormous spirit stone that had shrunk in size and was suspended in the sky began to rotate again.

It did not dissipate after the launch. Although it became smaller, the light inside still shone. The spirit stone began to deform and separate, and the surface fragments peeled off, turning into hundreds of different small pyramids.

Under Anjing's will, these pyramids, like floating cannons, shot out in all directions, blasting the scattered officials away.

Although the power of these Spirit Stone Apostles is far less incredible than that of the previous Heavenly Punishment Divine Light, each of them possesses An Jing's 'Gate of Myriad Wonders', with almost inexhaustible spiritual energy. Each ray of spiritual light is equivalent to the full-force attack of a True Person, and they are also surrounded by the 'Mysterious Yin Frost Domain' as a field defense, making them extremely difficult to deal with as they are a combination of offense and defense.

With a whoosh, a spirit stone apostle, after activating its divine light, transformed into the shape of an armor-piercing pyramid, then accelerated to hypersonic speed, emitting a piercing whistle, and rushed towards an official who was barely blocking the divine light.

The Spirit Stone Apostle is essentially an automated Heavenly Secret Battle Armor created by An Jing using the Feathering Dao method, modeled after the 'Hundred Forms of the Furnace'. Although the materials are not top-notch and the functions are simple, it is sufficient for killing and fighting, and its power is comparable to that of the Divine Treasure True Man.

"Demon, shatter!" This official belonged to the Ministry of Justice, and the supernatural power he used was inclined to destroy things. With one hand, he clenched his fist, and the great annihilation energy scattered everything.

He had just struck out with his palm, shattering a Spirit Stone Apostle he had captured, but then a new Spirit Stone Apostle struck him in the lower back, piercing through his spine and chest. The Xuan Yin Frost Qi filled the air, freezing him, and he was left on the verge of death.

This injury would normally be nothing to a True Person; even if their body were shattered, they could reassemble their flesh and blood using the Heavenly Official Talisman. However, this Spirit Stone Apostle was able to attack the Dragon Qi. After piercing through the official, it immediately self-destructed, shattering the originally illusory and hazy Dragon Qi Talisman.

As a result, the Heavenly Official immediately returned to the mortal realm, died on the spot, and was even unable to be guided to the Netherworld.

In an instant, more than a dozen celestial officials who thought they were safe perished, turning into countless orbs of light.

"Use the method of breaking the curse to deal with these monsters!"

However, we should not underestimate these heroes who have gathered from all over the world in Dachen. In just a few moments, an official from the Ministry of Rites noticed something amiss.

The core essence of this Spirit Stone Apostle is a 'Puppet Control Technique' performed by An Jing. It is extremely exquisite, but the more exquisite the technique, the easier it is to be interfered with.

Surrounding the array plate, the Heavenly Lord-level beings, including Xun Jian, Minister of Revenue, Su Yiheng, Minister of Rites, and Du Yuanzheng, Minister of Justice, attacked simultaneously. The violent power swept towards the spirit stone apostles released by An Jing like mountains and seas. In an instant, one spirit stone apostle after another disintegrated and collapsed, exploding like small suns.

With each powerful impact, the already crumbling land of Shenjing trembled even more violently, accompanied by terrifying creaking sounds. Violent earthquakes, protruding rock slabs, and scarlet fissures torn into the mantle began to spread beyond Shenjing.

The sky collapsed and the earth cracked; this was a true cataclysmic event.

Even the massive blue-green spirit stone floating above An Jing's head became disordered and distorted in this vast wave of dispelling the curse, constantly flashing like a snowflake screen, as if it were about to explode and scatter.

But An Jing simply opened his eyes, casually raised his hand, patted the cyan crystal, and restored it, dissolving the waste energy and shrinking it into an even smaller octahedron.

Just now, with just one glance, An Jing saw at least 1,792 flaws.

Whether he broke into the Execution Platform while the Heavenly Officials were being blasted away, or when the Heavenly Lord-level Ministers worked together to break the curse, he had ample opportunity to break into the Heavenly Officials' inner defensive circle and dismantle their supposedly solid defenses.

At that time, in just a few breaths, he could slaughter these Heavenly Officials who merely possessed supernatural powers and strength but were not skilled in combat, and shatter all the 'brains' whose true bodies remained in the central hub of the Divine Capital to maintain the operation of the heart of this behemoth, the Great Chen.

Even if he were to leave immediately, the entire Great Chen Dynasty would fall into a period of weakness and stagnation lasting more than a decade. The Heavenly Sect would then weaken and eventually collapse during the great calamity.

But it's a pity.

Even if the core hub of a Heavenly Sect is attacked and there is an internal traitor, it is not so easy to destroy it.

[Destiny... Peace and Tranquility]

After coldly watching the fall of most of the capital, Emperor Wu's chief advisor, Yin Gujin, finally stepped down from the execution platform.

The tall, middle-aged man raised his hand, then bent down and threw a punch at the ground.

With this punch, an invisible force surged violently, instantly closing up and calming the collapsing, trembling earth.

Heaven and earth were thus settled.
