The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 397, Cleaving Chaos in Force, Illuminating All Directions with Fire
The dark and chaotic Chicken Space was reflected in the sky above the southwestern part of Nanxiang County, and the people looking up at it seemed to be looking up at a chaotic starry sky.

In the starry sky, that fiery red, towering figure, impossible to ignore, simply stands still, and the surrounding space and time seem to freeze.

At first, it was the people within the territory of Nanxiang County who were stunned, and then it spread to places like the Qisheng Palace, Xuanyuan Mansion, various holy sites, and the imperial palace.

One after another, powerful figures appeared, standing atop the clouds, gazing towards the south.

Above the palace, the retired emperor and the empress dowager exchanged a silent glance.

The two men looked rather grim. They recognized that the location of the Chicken Space was the same blessed land they had discovered.

Both the royal family and the Zhu family sent people in.

However, the towering figure standing in the chicken egg space, though as bright as the sun and impossible to see clearly, could still be identified as a woman, and had nothing to do with the people they sent!
Above the central holy land, Wei Zhenjie was confronting two demons from the Spirit Platform Realm.

At this moment, both the human and the two demons were looking solemnly in the direction of Nanxiang County.

The two demons were communicating telepathically.

"I heard that in the primordial era, in the polar regions of the four continents lived a race of giants who could pluck stars from the sky and sever rivers and seas with their feet. It seems that someone in Nanxiang County has obtained the legacy left behind by the giants."

"The human race is about to produce another powerful figure."

"I thought the chaos in Nanxiang County would draw the attention of the human race's powerful figures, but I didn't expect them to be so vigilant in their defense of the Demon Prison."

The central holy land's array core, the four holy lands' array eyes, and all the destructive actions launched by the demon race against these five places were blocked.

"We were too lenient. If the demon race were to directly attack and occupy the Lingguang Palace, the human race's experts would definitely be unable to cope. I really don't know why the Demon Saint did not agree to the demon race attacking the Lingguang Palace."

"You're thinking too simply. The demon race and the human race are not just fighting for territory, but more importantly, for destiny."

"If the demon race launches a large-scale attack from the beginning, it will only promote the cohesion of the human race. It is better to infiltrate little by little. Look at Nanxiang County, the demon race does not need to intervene too much, and the infighting among the human race has become more and more intense."

"That's true."

While the two demons were exchanging telepathic messages, Wei Zhenjie was not idle either. He was communicating with the five generals of Xuanyuan using the One Thought Communication.

Lu Zhenting: "Is that person the Lord of Lingguang Palace?"

Wei Zhenjie glanced at the towering figure in the chicken egg space: "Most likely."

Qin Feng: "I was wondering why she disappeared for ten years. Turns out she was trapped."

Lu Zhenting: "Is she using the giant race's supernatural powers?"

Wei Zhenjie didn't return this time. The giant race's supernatural powers are inherited in the central holy land. Although they can grow infinitely larger, it comes at the cost of consuming one's own energy.

The towering figure in the sky above the chicken egg caused towering waves of air and changing winds and clouds when it appeared, which was clearly an outward manifestation of invoking the power of heaven and earth and the laws of heaven and earth.

It follows the laws of heaven and earth!
Only by following the laws of heaven and earth can one harness the power and principles of heaven and earth for one's own use.

Looking at the towering figure, Wei Zhenjie sighed inwardly, "Cultivating the Law of Heaven and Earth requires a very high level of physical strength."

It seems that although Nanxiang County has been in chaos over the past ten years, her strength has improved significantly!

The other powerful figures from all sides looked rather grim. One by one, they took out their One Thought Transformation and quickly gave instructions: cease all attacks on the Vermilion Bird Army.

They all vaguely guessed that the towering figure was the Lord of Lingguang Palace who had disappeared for ten years.

The chicken-shaped space reflected the sky, instantly captivating everyone's attention.

"Bang~"

Just as everyone was speculating, a hand wreathed in flames suddenly shot out from behind Qingtian's figure in the Chicken Egg Space. It grew from small to large, rapidly expanding, and then slammed down fiercely towards Qingtian's figure.

The fiery palm surged rapidly, carrying the overwhelming power to scorch the heavens. A layer of black flames swirled around the surface of the palm, as if it were about to shatter the towering figure with a single blow.

Upon seeing the Flaming Palm and the Black Flame, the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Dowager in the palace both changed their expressions simultaneously. One's eyes were filled with tension, while the other's eyes flickered with pain.

The Empress Dowager knew that Zhu Yan was dead.

Otherwise, Chu Junshan wouldn't have been able to control the black flames.

Inside the Chicken Egg Space, although the Flame Palm surged and impacted quite fiercely, it still seemed somewhat insignificant compared to the towering figure.

Chu Junshan's cultivation of the Pangu True Body Divine Power consumed a large amount of resources, but he could only raise his physical body to a height of 100 meters. Compared to the towering figure that was thousands of feet tall, it was really not enough.

Everyone saw that Qingtian simply turned his body slightly to the side and swiftly swung the fire axe at the flame palm.

"Boom~"

The fire axe struck the flame palm with perfect precision. The flame palm disintegrated and shattered instantly upon contact with the fire axe, turning into a shower of sparks.

Immediately afterwards, red light gathered on the right hand of the towering figure, and soon, another fire axe appeared.

The fire axe was swung out again, this time aiming directly at the direction from which the fiery palm was rising.

"Click~"

Only when the fire axe erupted in a dazzling burst of light did everyone notice a small fire figure standing not far from the feet of the towering figure.

The 'Little Fireman' was cleaved in two by the fire axe, and finally turned into flames and disappeared.

Seeing this scene, the cultivators outside swallowed hard in fear. In particular, the towering figure seemed to sense the outside world, and looked down at it. Everyone felt her indifferent gaze, which made them feel inexplicably insignificant as ants.

From the direction of the palace, a terrifying pressure suddenly appeared, and hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs instantly bled from their seven orifices and died.

It was only thanks to the Empress Dowager's timely intervention that the Emperor Emeritus's spiritual pressure was blocked, thus preventing more people from losing their lives.

All the powerful figures from various sides glanced towards the imperial palace, seemingly lost in thought.

"Bang~"

"Bang~"

"Bang~"

Inside the Chicken Space, after dealing with the 'Little Fireman', the towering figure wielded a fire axe and fiercely slashed at the boundary wall, each swing producing a deafening explosion that pierced the heavens.

The power around the towering figure surged and converged, but it was not magic power or supernatural ability; it was the most primal, most savage, and most direct force!

It is the most resolute power bursting forth from the physical body.

Every swing of the fiery axe in the figure's hand carried the power to shatter galaxies, and every swing made the hearts of those watching outside jump in fear.

"In the beginning of chaos, the world was like a chicken egg; she is creating the world!"

On the Star Gazing Tower, the tower master Yuan Qi looked with a sigh at the dark and chaotic space above Nanxiang County.

The others also realized that the Lord of Lingguang Palace was trapped in the Chicken Egg Space and could not get out for the time being. Therefore, all parties began to act quickly, trying to maximize their interests before the Lord of Lingguang Palace was freed.

The Phoenix Clan, disregarding the dangers of the spatial rift and the obstruction of the Vermilion Bird Army, continuously sent phoenixes of pure bloodline deep into the Wutong Forest.

"Senior Fire Phoenix, if you unleash a few more soul attacks, I will take all these thousands of Vermilion Bird soldiers with me."

Outside the burning village, a skull formed from black mist shouted urgently at the Fire Phoenix of the Spirit Platform Realm.

He knew that once the Lord of Lingguang Palace returned, it would be difficult for him to capture the Vermilion Bird Army.

Fire Phoenix glanced at the towering figure still struggling to cleave the boundary wall. With the aim of weakening the Vermilion Bird Army and intensifying the internal strife among humans, it agreed to the black skull's request, roared to the sky once more, and launched a soul attack on the Vermilion Bird Army.

"Ah~"

Countless Vermilion Bird soldiers fell to the ground, their battle formations becoming increasingly difficult to maintain. Yang Zhaoye and several late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, each holding a Vermilion Bird Token, defended their respective areas, struggling to resist the Fire Phoenix's attacks.

During this time, the black aura surrounding the black skull increased, and the skull grew larger and larger, its gaping mouth rapidly expanding from a few meters to tens of meters.

Once the Vermilion Bird Token had exhausted its chances to withstand attacks from the Spirit Platform Realm, the black skull swallowed the Vermilion Bird Army whole.

"Thank you."

Just as the black skull thanked the fire phoenix, a loud cracking sound, as if the sky were splitting apart, rang out in the sky.

"Click~"

An indescribable sound of the sky splitting apart resounded throughout the void.

Wherever the fiery red axe blade passed, a huge, burning crack was forcibly torn open in the boundary wall, and surging, powerful blood energy burst forth from that huge crack, like a torrent of life at the dawn of creation.

All living beings in Nanxiang County felt this vigorous life force, their blood and qi were strengthened, and their physique was reinforced. At this moment, countless people suddenly realized that pure physical strength was so fascinating.

Accompanied by the rich power of blood and qi, the endless flames accumulated in the fire axe erupted like a primordial beast that had found an outlet.

The flames spread like millions of firebirds taking flight, rushing towards every corner.

Where the flames passed, nothingness dissipated.

At this moment, the sky above Nanxiang County was ablaze with fire.

"Whoo~"

The towering figure swung the fire axe in his hand for the third time. The fire axe was like a fireball from outer space, and it slashed straight towards the southeastern border of Nanxiang County.

The three fire phoenixes and the black skull were terrified when they saw the fire axe hurtling straight at them, and they all tried to dodge the fire axe's attack as fast as they could.

Unfortunately, the fire axe arrived too quickly, in the blink of an eye.

The three fire phoenixes were severely injured by the residual power of the fire axe, and the black skull was directly cleaved in two by the fire axe. The swallowed Vermilion Bird soldiers fell to the ground one after another.

The black skulls rapidly coalesced, no longer caring about the Vermilion Bird Army, and disappeared underground, quickly fleeing.

"Hey~"

The moment the fire axe was thrown out, Qingtian's figure rapidly shrank, shooting out of the chicken egg space like a meteor and flying towards the southeastern border of Nanxiang County.

Just before the black skull charged into the mass grave, a red fire lotus descended from the sky, igniting the black skull.

"Ah~"

Black smoke surged, and shrill screams echoed throughout Nanxiang County.
