Daqin Zhentiansi

Blackstone Plain.

The phantom of the Xuanwu divine beast stands proudly in the sky.

The immense suppressive force, like an invisible collapse of the sky, pinned the tens of thousands of Black Horned Rhinoceros tribe's steel torrent to the spot!
Black Rock Venerable and Xuanzhong Venerable roared repeatedly, their demonic power erupting wildly.

The obsidian shell and dark gold heavy armor were covered in flashing runes, trying to break free from the shackles that originated from the primordial world.

Unfortunately, the power of Xuanwu before them was far too great.

"boom--"

With each collision, they would be knocked back.

With each step the two venerable ones took back, they carved deep, bottomless furrows into the earth.

The flying stones were like rain, but they still could not shake the overwhelming and unstoppable suppressive power!

Their proud Earth Element Laws appeared so sluggish in the face of the Xuanwu Will!

"Now! Kill—!"

The eyes of Qingfeng, the master of Qingyu Temple, flashed with a sharp light, and the pent-up frustration and boiling fighting spirit of countless years burst forth!
The jade sword in his hand transformed into a hundred-foot-long bolt of lightning that tore through the heavens and earth. Its sword light was as clear and cold as a spring from the heavens, yet it contained a resolute will to burn away the eight wastelands. It slashed directly at the Xuanzhong Venerable, whose aura was being suppressed and was churning!
Before the sword energy even arrived, the chilling sword intent had already caused the dark gold heavy armor on the body of Venerable Xuanzhong to groan under the unbearable pressure!
Even at his peak, Venerable Xuanzhong wouldn't have given him a second glance.

However, at this moment, Venerable Xuanzhong was clashing with Xuanwu and had no time to spare!
Xuan Yan, the abbot of Xuan Shi Temple, with his hair and beard bristling, slammed his palms into the ground and roared, "Bind the dragon of the earth's veins!"

"Boom!"

The earth seemed to come alive, and countless thick, python-like streams of primordial yellow earth energy burst forth from the ground, carrying the unchanging power of an ancient seal, and coiled around the massive obsidian body of the Black Rock Venerable.

At the same time, the thousands of elite guards from the Qingyu and Xuanshi temples behind him, like a flood breaking through the dam, formed a sharp battle formation and crashed into the flank of the Black Horned Rhinoceros army formation, which was shaken by the suppression of the Venerable!

"Pfft! Crack!"

Swords flashed and talismans roared!

Without the protection of their venerable one and the momentum of their charge, the Black Horned Rhinoceros warriors, under the terrifying suppressive power and the assault of the human elites, had their hard armor torn apart, their huge bodies blasted with holes, and fell down like stalks of harvested wheat!

The screams, the cracking of bones, and the sound of weapons piercing flesh instantly drowned out the giant rhinoceros's heavy breathing!
At the same time, the thirty-three guardians of the town, who had been unable to restrain themselves any longer, launched a full-scale counterattack!

Among the thirty-three temples, Wu Wei stepped out.

The giant shields of the Panshi Camp surged forward with a thunderous roar, like a moving steel wall, squeezing and crushing the panicked demon wolves.

The armor-piercing arrows from the Rift Abyss Camp were like invitations from the Grim Reaper, precisely piercing the heads of the demon wolf leaders who were trying to organize a resistance.

The fiery torrent of the Starfire Camp swept through, turning the wolf pack's last formation into a sea of ​​fire and inferno!
Bloodfang watched helplessly as his carefully built army crumbled like an avalanche.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he was about to burn his lifeblood to fight to the death when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

Dust Cloud Temple, Deputy Abbot Yun Gu!
The humble human abbot who used to fawn and flatter him now had no trace of humility on his face, only icy killing intent!
Yun Gu formed a hand seal, and a giant ice cone tempered with Azure Wave Poison condensed out of thin air. With a piercing shriek, it stabbed fiercely into the chest of a Saint Realm Wolf Demon that was trying to protect Blood Fang!

"Roar—You old thief Yun Gu! How dare you do this!"

Blood Fang roared furiously, its hundred-foot-tall body, carrying a monstrous blood aura, lunging towards Cloud Valley.

"You evil beast, please stop being so arrogant!"

Several sharp shouts rang out at the same time!

The five abbots of Panshi Temple, Zuo Yuan, Liuyun Temple, Chen Feng, Qingteng Temple, and Chen Song instantly formed a combined attack formation!

Five streams of true essence, each with different attributes but equally powerful, converged and transformed into a giant, five-colored, flowing law pestle!

"boom--!!!"

The giant pestle slammed solidly into the side of the massive wolf head that Bloodfang was lunging at!

"puff!"

Bloodfang was struck as if by a star; its massive body was sent tumbling through the air, blood mixed with broken teeth gushing from its mouth.

His body crashed heavily to the ground, creating a deep crater in the scorched earth!
He struggled to get up, his huge wolf eyes filled with humiliation and incredulous horror.

These abbots, who were once like ants in his eyes, actually joined forces to beat him so badly!

Just as the Bloodfang Wolf Clan was completely collapsing and the two Venerables of the Black Horned Rhinoceros Clan were locked in a fierce battle—

"hold head high--!"

A clear, melodious, and long dragon's roar, seemingly coming from the heavens above, suddenly rang out!

The void behind and to the side of the battlefield twisted violently, and a vast expanse of azure-green demonic cloud tore through space and rolled out!

Amidst the clouds, the enormous figures of countless azure-scaled dragons appeared and disappeared, their dragon might overwhelming!
The two leading figures possessed an aura as deep as the sea; they were none other than Venerable Qingming and Venerable Qingyuan of the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon Clan!
"Brother Qingming! Brother Qingyuan! Quickly, act! Break this ghostly formation!"

As if grasping at a straw, Venerable Blackrock roared wildly, his voice filled with urgency and pleading.

Venerable Xuanzhong also struggled to resist Qingfeng's sword light and the earth's binding force, urgently saying, "This is a human race's treacherous formation! Break it, and the overall situation can be settled!"

The appearance of the Azure Scaled Dragon Clan rekindled a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the Black Horned Rhinoceros and the remaining Bloodclaw Wolf Clan, who were on the verge of despair.

However, the enormous dragon bodies of Venerable Qingming and Venerable Qingyuan had just emerged from the demonic clouds, about to make a move—

"Buzz!"

Another void rippled outwards like waves on water.

Several figures appeared silently, their auras as solid as mountains. They were none other than Venerable Xuancheng, the guardian of the Thousand Views Hall, and two other human Venerables!
Their bodies emanated a Daoist aura that merged with heaven and earth, and an invisible pressure instantly locked onto the direction of the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon Clan.

Venerable Xuancheng looked calmly at Qingming and Qingyuan. His voice was not loud, but it clearly resounded throughout the battlefield, carrying an undeniable majesty: "Fellow Daoists of the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon Clan, this is the cause and effect between my human race and the Black Horned Rhinoceros and Blood Claw Wolf."

"I advise you two not to get involved in this mess. Although the Netherworld Death Zone is dangerous, it is still better than staying here... where you will perish and your lineage will be severed."

The chilling warning, like a cold wind, caused even the azure demon clouds to pause.

Qingming and Qingyuan's enormous vertical pupils stared intently at Venerable Xuancheng and the others, flashing with anger, fear, and resentment.

In an instant, the auras of the two Venerable Ones collided fiercely in the void, distorting space and forming an invisible confrontation zone!

The battle on Blackrock Plains has unexpectedly reached a bizarre stalemate due to this sudden high-level confrontation!

Thunderfall Abyss.

Almost at the same time that the standoff formed on the Blackrock Plains, the destructive lightning barrier of Thunderfall Abyss was finally torn open with a huge crack under the relentless assault of the Patrol Division!

"Boom--!"

Hundreds of Silver Guard and Obsidian Guard warships, like a raging silver meteor shower, were bound by chains of star power and bravely charged into the core area of ​​Thunderfall Abyss, withstanding the bombardment of billions of lightning bolts capable of destroying stars!

The ship was covered in scorch marks, and many parts were even pierced through, but it still managed to break in!

The Jade City Governor stood at the head of the flagship, his dark ink robe with silver trim fluttering in the raging thunder.

A cold smile played on his handsome face as he slowly lowered a massive crossbow, engraved with the stars of the heavens.

The destructive aftershocks of shattering the last lightning barrier still lingered on the crossbow string.

It was this treasure, combined with the star power shield formed by the "Binding God Lock," that forcibly blasted open the natural barrier of the Thunderfall Abyss!
The bottom of the abyss is not empty.

The old man in green robes, who was transformed from Lei Yu, stood majestically on the boiling thunder magma, with dozens of huge and ferocious Kui Niu true forms behind him.

In addition, a few divine beast descendants and powerful demons who are attached to the Kui Niu clan.

They summoned the lightning of the abyss, transforming it into pillars of destructive lightning as thick as mountains, which crashed fiercely into the celestial warships that were charging in!

"Little tricks!"

Yu Cheng snorted coldly, and with his left hand he made a grasping motion, a giant banner as black as ink, embroidered with countless painful and wailing soul shadows, fluttered in the wind!

With a flick of the banner, a terrifying suction force erupted, twisting and swallowing most of the raging lightning pillar that was powerful enough to kill a Venerable!

The remaining lightning struck the Star Power Shield, only causing violent ripples.

"Thunder Prison!"

Yu Cheng's voice was icy, carrying a condescending, judgmental tone that pierced through the thunderous roar, "I'm giving you one last chance! Sever your 'Chaos Thunder Horn' and offer it to me!"

"I will then send half of the pure-blooded members of your Kui Niu clan as slave soldiers, to serve the Patrol Guard for eternity! Perhaps I can show leniency and spare a sliver of your Kui Niu clan's lineage!"

"Otherwise... from this day forward, you will be banished to the River of Sinking Sands and the Abyss of Falling Thunder, and the name of the Kui Niu will be forgotten!"

In the distant void, the Ink Dragon Venerable and the Black Armor Venerable, who were secretly observing, saw the three great treasures of Jade City appear together with overwhelming power, and the Kui Niu Clan seemed to have no defense left. The last trace of doubt in their eyes disappeared.

"It's over, Brother Lei Yu is... beyond saving this time."

Mo Jiao shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of shared sorrow, but more so of the greed that awaited the division of Luo Lei Yuan.

The massive tortoise head in the Xuanjia armor nodded: "Three treasures of the Guardian, Yucheng is determined to obtain them. Thunder Prison... what can it use to stop it? What a pity for that divine bone and essence..."

Just as they were sighing, a phantom of a Vermilion Bird burning with eternal flames appeared in the void.

Her gaze pierced through the layers of space, carrying a hint of tension and extreme anticipation, and was firmly fixed on Lei Yu.

She could sense that within Lei Yu's body, a dormant power, far more terrifying than what had been displayed before, was about to awaken under the influence of that earth-shaking drum!

Faced with Yu Cheng's ultimatum and the earth-shattering pressure, the old man in the green robe, who was actually Lei Yu, showed no fear or anger on his face, only a cold indifference.

He slowly raised his hand, and in his hand was not the Heaven-Shaking Drum, but the "Sky-Breaking" Divine Bow that had once shot and killed three Silver Radiance Guard commanders!
The bow is drawn as full as a moon!
Without the need for arrows, the endless thunderous essence of Thunderfall Abyss automatically converged, condensing into two arrows leaping with destructive purple lightning!
"Huh! Huh!"

Two beams of purple lightning, transcending the perception of space and time, instantly pierced through the left and right sides of the Jade City flagship, where two Saint Realm Peak Celestial Commanders were doing their best to maintain the "Binding God Lock" star power shield!

"Pfft! Pfft!"

Two blinding purple bolts of lightning exploded violently in the chests of the two commanders!

Before they could even utter a scream, the two powerful Saint Realm Celestials, along with their silver armor, were instantly torn to shreds by the raging lightning, their souls and spirits annihilated!

Only two clumps of slowly spreading plasma dust, emitting a burnt smell, remained!

"Lei Yu, you're courting death—"

Governor Yucheng's roar instantly drowned out all the thunder!
His handsome face was completely distorted, and his eyes burned with the flames of rage and madness!
The fact that the Sky-Piercing Bow could unleash such divine power in Lei Yu's hands further strengthened his resolve to kill Lei Yu and seize the Divine Horn!

"Crush them all! Leave no one alive!"

With his furious command, the cannons of all the patrol ships lit up with destructive starlight.

The Silver Guards and Obsidian Guards formed a charging battle formation, while the armies of the Xuan Turtle, Golden-Winged Roc, and Crimson Flame Tiger also roared with bloodlust, pouring down like a destructive torrent towards the seemingly insignificant Kui Niu position at the bottom of the abyss!

At the same time, Yu Cheng suddenly waved his right hand, and the "Soul-Suppressing Banner" that devoured lightning swelled in the wind.

On the banner, countless soul shadows emitted extremely shrill screams, transforming into a vast, filthy, and viscous sea of ​​blood-red souls that blotted out the sky.

Countless hideous skeletons, formed from resentment and pain, emerged from it, carrying a terrifying power that eroded the soul and defiled the very essence, and descended upon Thunder Prison!

The power of this Blood Sea Skeleton is more than ten times stronger than when it devoured the lightning pillar!
At this moment, all the onlookers, including the black dragon, the black armor, and even some hidden beings further away, were shaken to their core!
Yu Cheng's furious attack almost used the maximum power of the Soul-Suppressing Banner, locking down all of Lei Yu's energy, leaving him with no way to avoid it!

"Thunder Prison is finished!" This was the thought that arose simultaneously in the minds of all the onlookers.

The flames of the Vermilion Bird phantom also froze.

However, just as the filthy sea of ​​blood and skeletons was about to completely engulf Thunder Prison—

Lei Yu's eyes, which had been lowered, suddenly snapped open!
Those deep eyes seemed to contain the first thunderbolt from the beginning of time!
He stopped looking at the terrifying sea of ​​blood that was descending upon him, and instead slowly and solemnly raised his right hand.

Palms up.

“Buzz——!!!”

An indescribable, boundless aura, seemingly originating from the beginning of chaos and the source of all thunder, suddenly erupted from his palm!
The moment this aura appeared, the entire Thunderfall Abyss erupted in chaos!
No, it was the thunderous power of the entire Chensha River war zone, and even more distant areas, that seemed to have received a supreme summons, frantically converging towards Luolei Abyss!
The thunderclouds in the sky were instantly emptied, transforming into a massive pillar of lightning that connected heaven and earth, crashing into the abyss!
Light!

A light that pierces through all filth and darkness!
On Lei Yu's palm, surrounded by billions of lightning bolts, a supreme divine drum—the Kui Niu Shaking Heaven Drum—appeared in the world, its entire body as black as ancient ink jade, its drumhead rolling with a blue lightning storm powerful enough to destroy the world, and its edges inlaid with purple destructive lightning crystals!
Its appearance seemed to freeze time and solidify space.

The originally devastating Soul-Suppressing Blood Sea Skeleton actually let out a terrified scream under the pressure of this divine drum, and its downward momentum was momentarily halted!
The entire Thunderfall Abyss, and indeed all the powerful beings who sensed this aura, felt as if their hearts were being gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand!
The final movement of the decisive battle in Thunderfall Abyss begins with this earth-shaking drum! (End of Chapter)
