An imperial pattern condensed beneath his feet, emanating imperial might, causing the firmament of this ancient star path to crack. The four beings grew tense, their gazes fixed on the celestial pond.
Lu Bu watched this scene. Of the ten Immortal Emperors who had entered the Land of Inheritance, five had perished, and the remaining four had all departed for various reasons. He alone stood in this place, his eyes suddenly igniting with the light of the Kun Peng. He walked to the fractured stone tablet, reaching out to touch the myriad patterns inscribed upon it.
*Dong!*
Suddenly, a crimson dao pattern flickered into existence beside Lu Bu. The moment it flashed, Lu Bu's entire spiritual sense vibrated, plunging him into profound contemplation. One hand caressed the Kun Peng dao pattern, while the other reached towards the firmament.
Deep within the ancient star path, Zhu Que moved step by step, treading on crimson dao patterns. She locked onto that location, phantom twin wings unfurling within her eyes. She pointed a finger at the space, and on the other side, behind Lu Bu, the crimson dao pattern instantly merged into his body.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the battle within that space also erupted instantaneously. The being, radiating dark golden dao patterns, raised his hand and gripped a curved saber. This saber, entirely dark gold, was densely etched with imperial and dao patterns. Saber intent surged forth, cleaving the surroundings. The peerless blade's edge lunged towards the green-haired headless corpse. Black mist billowed, and a chaotic being raised an ancient lamp. A faint glow from the lamp shattered several stars within the firmament of the ancient star path, its light illuminating the vast expanse of time.
"Bang!"
The humanoid being, wielding a plain ancient bell, attacked. It was as if killing intent, a celestial wind raging, and imperial might suppressing the primordial darkness. The light emanating from the bell flew out, landing upon the green-haired headless corpse.
Boom!
Dragon Might erupted from his fists. The entire space within that region blazed, imperial might rolling and shaking the ancient star path. Black blood gushed ceaselessly from the coffin, like a nine-layered abyss that devoured heaven and earth. Green light, like an abyss, roared downwards, swallowing infinite slaughter. The green-haired headless corpse raised its halberd and smashed forward. Divine light blazed, and strange phenomena appeared, including vast battlefields bathed in blood and bizarre arrivals from the depths beyond.
"Halt!"
Dragon Fist retracted. The figure imbued with Dragon Might raised a Dragon Seal and suppressed it towards the green-haired headless corpse. Dozens of illusory long dragons surged across the sky, driven by the seal, converging downwards.
"Boom!~~!"
The green-haired headless corpse's body trembled, and strands of green light scattered, instantly obliterating vast swathes of space in the firmament. *Dong, dong, dong*, the green-haired headless corpse was forced back several steps. A strange sound arose, and with a fierce strike, it slammed the coffin. Its body hovered in the space, and a broken halberd, carrying an ancient aura, cleaved downwards like a ferocious prehistoric beast pouncing.
With a thunderous crash, the four beings, enveloped by chaos, immediately attacked. Lamp light from the netherworld, dark gold saber intent, a silver bell that shook the heavens, and the Dragon Seal that suppressed the void – four supreme treasures, their peak immortal power unleashed in varied assaults, tore through the river of space, obliterating countless stars. A portion of the firmament itself shattered and fell. Such immense commotion did not awaken Lu Bu, who was still caressing the Kun Peng dao pattern. The green-haired headless corpse charged forward alone, its chaotic halberd cleaving in all directions. The falling corner of the sky was pushed upward by the great halberd, suppressing the four beings.
"Annihilate him!"
"A headless imperial corpse, and you dare defy heaven!"
The humanoid being, holding the silver-mouthed great bell, roared, his tiger's maw spitting imperial blood from the impact. A saber's radiance, capable of pushing aside three thousand realms, was unleashed, striking down. The light of this celestial saber seemed to come from the end of an era, carrying infinite, desolate death qi. *Rumble*! Within that space, the four mysterious powerhouses battled the green-haired headless corpse, their fierce engagement giving rise to myriad phenomena.
On the edge of the ancient star path's depths, a three-legged Golden Crow stood within the divine sun. At that moment, a streak of light shot past its head. Several imperial destinies felt a surge of fear, nearly being severed. It trembled and hurriedly shattered space, escaping the ancient star path.
"Kill!"
A great bell shattered a corner of the ancient star path, then attacked again. The being whose hands were covered in dark golden runes, wielding a celestial saber, attacked. With a "Boom!", the coffin beneath the green-haired headless corpse's feet shattered, and the rolling black blood instantly dried up. At this moment, the parched celestial pond began to bubble with black, unknown liquid, its radiant glow illuminating the boundless land. The green-haired headless corpse's green light intensified. The shattering of the coffin enraged it, its aura boiling and erupting. A broken halberd was hurled forward.
The slaughter shook the past and present!
This bloodless, green-haired headless corpse, from where it drew its endless, terrifying fighting strength, was inexplicable. With each swing of the halberd, the immortal qi filling the space could be harnessed, instantly unleashing boundless combat power.
"Boom!"
The two sides clashed. The four mysterious powerhouses bled profusely. Each drop of their blood that landed on the green-haired headless corpse caused its green fur to grow wildly. In mere breaths, the green-haired headless corpse became like a green furball, its green light filling the sky. Its immortal power surged, and wielding the chaotic halberd, it was brave and invincible, battling the four mysterious powerhouses. Its broken halberd actually held its own against the four supreme treasures.
"Crack!"
The being holding the ancient lamp plucked the flame from it and smeared it onto its eyes. Instantly, those terrifying pupils shot out an astonishing pupil technique. Nine tails rose behind it, shattering the void. The nine heads atop the nine tails roared towards the sky, their eyes gleaming with an eerie light!
"This imperial corpse is truly extraordinary, to have defied heaven and been born anew. Such powerful vitality shows how potent the cultivation methods of the Kun Peng clan are. Annihilate it, and this supreme cultivation method will belong to our four races!" Dragon Might surged. The being extended a massive hand, covered in imperial patterns, and sealed it towards the green-haired headless corpse.
With a bang, the dragon claw shattered. The being, startled, hastily withdrew its hand and, with a backhand, blocked the Dragon Seal in front of it. With a deafening roar, it sent the being spewing blood. In this earth-shattering blow, the green-haired headless corpse's arm also trembled violently, and the broken chaotic halberd almost slipped from its grasp.
"Kill! Now is the time, annihilate him!" The moment that segment of the chaotic halberd vibrated, the four mysterious powerhouses seized the opportunity.
The humanoid being suspended the silver-mouthed great bell above its head, spread its hands, and struck down several stars, shouting, "Today, the Kun Peng clan will be utterly exterminated!"
"Is that so?"
Deep within the ancient star path, a slender figure strode forward. A high-pitched cry caused unease in all directions.
