The Sovereign was at the peak of the eighth heaven of the Divine Lord realm!
That's right, a terrifying pressure instantly filled every corner of Xuantian Divine City. That aura was no longer just oppressive; it evoked utter despair.
*Gulp~*
Sounds of swallowing could be heard from the throats of many factions in Xuantian Divine City. Damn it, would the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom really annihilate Xuantian Divine City in its wrath? If so, their lives would likely be extinguished along with it.
"Lord Sovereign!"
Upon seeing the suddenly appearing powerhouse, even Gong Cangtian sensed an extremely dense threat, his expression grave.
"I'll handle that fellow."
Ye Xuan squinted his eyes, glancing at the supreme ancestor of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom in the void above. A sparring session with a master of this caliber would be perfect.
He then looked at the other powerhouses of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom. "Slaughter Elder, the rest of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom is yours."
"Yes, Lord Sovereign!"
King of Slaughter's face was icy and extremely solemn. He immediately activated the "Immortal Slaying Sword Array," and simultaneously, the "Sun, Moon, and Stars Array" was fully unleashed. His Slaughter Domain was also not concealed in the slightest, causing his cultivation realm to soar rapidly.
"Well done, Xuantian Divine Kingdom, truly unexpected!"
The supreme ancestor of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom, Yuwen Zuijian, finally wore a serious expression. His aged eyes then fell upon Ye Xuan. "Ba Ji, Zhan Jue!"
"This brat is a bit strange!!"
"Yes, Ancestor Zuijian!"
Yuwen Ba Ji naturally dared not delay. He also perceived that the Xuantian Divine Lord was likely the strongest among these individuals, though his current cultivation realm was unknown.
"Heavenly Wolf Slaughter Formation · Activate!"
Yuwen Zuijian did not dare to be careless. With a solemn expression, he directly activated the slaughter formation. Under the augmentation of a million troops, his aura quickly advanced to the ninth heaven of the Divine Lord realm, then to the peak, and even to the extreme peak...
Ultimately, he reached a level infinitely close to the Divine Emperor realm!
"Brat, it's your fault for offending my Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom!"
Yuwen Zuijian sneered. Now that his combat power was infinitely close to that of a Divine Emperor, he was virtually invincible, barring the presence of actual Divine Emperors!
"Heh heh, the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom certainly has a big mouth."
"However..."
He paused, and Ye Xuan's aura rapidly intensified. "Do you truly believe my Xuantian Divine Kingdom is easy to bully?"
*Buzz~~*
As Ye Xuan's aura strengthened, thunderbolts erupted everywhere.
Divine King Triple Heaven!
Divine King Sevenfold Heaven!
...
Divine Lord Fivefold Heaven!
...
Soon, Ye Xuan fully unleashed his power, reaching the peak of the Divine Lord Sevenfold Heaven. Behind him, it transformed into an ocean of lightning, within which Ye Xuan bathed like a god of war forged from thunder.
"Since you've come, you're not leaving!"
Squinting his eyes, Ye Xuan, cloaked in a sky full of lightning, charged towards Yuwen Zuijian. "Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger · One Finger Imprisons Heaven and Earth!"
*Rumble~*
With Ye Xuan's strength reaching the Divine Lord Sevenfold Heaven, further amplified by the ultimate sublimation of his Divine Thunder bloodline, no one knew how powerful this martial art had become. A colossal, ancient finger, thousands of feet in size, instantly appeared in the void above, descending from the heavens and pressing down on the imposing Yuwen Zuijian.
"Arrogant!"
Yuwen Zuijian snorted coldly, and then an attack struck out, colliding with Ye Xuan's in an instant.
The terrifying collision forced both of them back dozens of feet. However, Yuwen Zuijian, after steadying himself, stared with disbelief. "Truly an astonishing young man!"
Indeed, that single strike had completely dispelled Yuwen Zuijian's contempt. If he had reacted even slightly slower, he would likely have been severely injured.
"What!!"
The powerhouses of Xuantian Divine City watched this scene with utter horror.
"What did I just see? The Xuantian Divine Lord actually blocked the attack of that terrifying fellow!"
"Cough, cough, so... so strong!!"
The entire Xuantian Divine City erupted in excitement, utterly shocked by what they were witnessing. The scene unfolding before them far exceeded their expectations.
"Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger · Two Fingers Shatter Mountains and Rivers!"
As the words fell, two more ancient, colossal fingers appeared in the void, striking towards Yuwen Zuijian with even greater speed.
"Not good!"
Seeing the two immensely powerful fingers pressing down, Yuwen Zuijian's face was filled with solemnity. Before he could fully prepare, the two colossal fingers descended from the heavens with a roar, instantly smashing Yuwen Zuijian towards the ground.
"Pfft~"
A mouthful of crimson blood sprayed out. Yuwen Zuijian had indeed sustained injuries, and his complexion had paled slightly. However, he had managed to block Ye Xuan's attack, though the price was evidently immense.
"As expected of someone whose combat power rivals a near-Divine Emperor. In that case..."
"Take another move from me."
His voice was calm as he glanced at Yuwen Zuijian on the ground. He never showed mercy to his enemies.
"Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger · Three Fingers Annihilate All Beings!!"
*Rumble~~*
Three ancient, colossal fingers descended, their destructive power far surpassing that of the previous attack. The surrounding world itself changed color.
*Boom!!!*
The terrifying attack instantly engulfed Yuwen Zuijian. The powerhouses of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom's faces changed drastically. "Ancestor Zuijian!!"
"No~~~"
Under the nearly world-destroying attack, the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom's powerhouses were stunned. The powerhouses of Xuantian Divine City were even more shocked. My heavens... the Xuantian Divine Lord was single-handedly and overwhelmingly slaughtering the supreme ancestor of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom, this!?
Cough cough... What kind of joke is this!!
As the residual energy dissipated, countless gazes immediately fell upon the center of the battlefield. Yuwen Zuijian, the once mighty supreme ancestor of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom, had now transformed into a cold corpse lying on the ground.
His face was filled with the terror and disbelief of his final moments, his eyes wide open in eternal regret.
"This is... Ancestor Zuijian has fallen~~"
"How could this be!!"
The powerhouses of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom, including the Heavenly Wolf Divine Lord Yuwen Ba Ji, were all dumbfounded. They could not accept what they were seeing. Ancestor Zuijian, their strongest ancestor, had actually... been killed by that fellow in such a short time. This meant that fellow's strength was already comparable to the Divine Emperor realm?
At that moment!
Yuwen Ba Ji's expression turned grave, clearly, he had also realized this!
"Retreat!!"
Without hesitation, despite the immense pain in his heart, Yuwen Ba Ji knew that with an opponent whose combat power was comparable to a Divine Emperor, continuing to fight would likely lead to the complete annihilation of their Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom. Therefore... there was no other path but to retreat!!
"Trying to retreat? Too late!!"
Gong Cangtian let out a cold snort. His Invincible Sword Domain was fully unleashed. In the moment the Heavenly Wolf Divine Lord was lost in thought, he charged forward with a terrifying attack, engulfing him. With a deafening roar, that single blow directly inflicted severe injuries on the Heavenly Wolf Divine Lord.
"Die!!!"
However, before countless Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom powerhouses could recover, Gong Cangtian unleashed a terrifying sword energy that seemed to pierce through the void, piercing the Heavenly Wolf Divine Lord's brow. This was a rudimentary skill he had learned from his own Divine Lord, and it was perfectly suited for a sneak attack. Thus, the Heavenly Wolf Divine Lord perished. As for the defeat of the Heavenly Wolf Divine Kingdom, it was merely a matter of time~~~
