Chapter 265: Heaven

Master Mei Zu stepped lightly upon the ten thousand meridians, and where she walked became the source of all cosmic phenomena.

"Come."

A soft, casual utterance, as ordinary as any ordinary call.

Hum~

All phenomena of the world, the ten thousand paths of the cosmos, even the Beast God Realm itself, stirred spontaneously at that voice—and began actively rejecting Hun Tian Yi, rooted within the world itself.

As if to offer Him as a gift.

Even Hun Tian Yi itself sensed its own existence slipping beyond control, drawn involuntarily toward the breathtaking crimson-robed figure.

Mad!

Absolutely mad!

Hun Tian Yi was acutely aware of this!

But awareness meant nothing—He could not control Himself. All perception was drawn to that crimson-robed figure; nothing else existed.

'Seize her essence! Far superior to the Beast God!'

'She is the perfect vessel!'

Though he knew it was a trap, the intensity of this thought nearly crushed all others.

Even the thought of relinquishing this part had vanished without a trace.

Slowly, noble, magnificent, brilliant purple light surged, drawn forth from the world.

Boom—boom—boom!

The world itself seemed to tremble.

Hun Tian Yi, formless, intangible, ethereal, was truly bound by countless threads of cause and effect and pulled outward, detaching itself from the world.

"The Huanhuan Sect's disciples truly disgrace the Dao this comrade upholds."

Huo turned her gaze away, gripping the threads of cause and effect tightly in her hand.

The methods passed down by this Dao are exquisitely profound, yet only a handful have grasped its true meaning; most have taken the deviant path of relying on external objects.

"Not necessarily a dead end."

Xiang Yuanjun replied.

The word "disgrace" is too harsh.

After all, the methods transmitted by Master Mei Zu have an impossibly high threshold—not everyone possesses her celestial talent and genius.

Though it now appears a "deviant path," if it is successfully traversed, it becomes the "true path!"

A few words passed in an instant.

Under the combined efforts of the Immortals, the Beast God Realm's Hun Tian Yi was nearly fully torn out.

Bie Xuening released the threads of cause and effect, raised her palm where Yue Ling rested, and the blade, like condensed moonlight, glowed with a faint radiance.

Like countless fine needles converging, ripples gently spread—upon close observation, one would see they were countless miniature worlds, born in an instant and extinguished in an instant.

Dao essence flowed, and worlds were born.

Destruction swept clean, all realms perished.

Between birth and death, the intent of slaughter grew ever more chilling.

No one was more suited to be the final executioner than she.

Whoosh~!

As if Tianhe had overturned, surging in torrents—everything in sight was submerged, bathed in radiant purple light.

Neither real nor unreal, true yet illusory, it had coexisted with this realm since its very inception.

Vast as an ocean, noble and magnificent, its overwhelming will was no lesser than that of a true Immortal.

Hun Tian Yi was fully extracted!

Without hesitation, Hun Tian Yi, filling all phenomena of the cosmos, surged toward Master Mei Zu.

The sword-wielding outsider was too ferocious; the outsider who wielded the Dao of cause and effect had already laid her trap; the outsider whose motives were suspicious was too slippery.

Only her!

Take her!

Invade and seize her essence!

Everything can be regained!

"Oh my, it seems I've been underestimated~"

Master Mei Zu still smiled lightly, her crimson robe fluttering.

Facing the surging Hun Tian Yi, brimming with endless malice, she did not dodge or retreat—instead, she stepped forward and pressed her hand down.

Boom—boom—boom!

Slow and unhurried, yet it stirred boundless chaos in the vast, oceanic Hun Tian Yi.

All things in the world, even the entire Beast God Realm, seemed to collapse inward into nothingness, converging into a single point.

Hm?

In the void's eternal silence, Hun Tian Yi's bewilderment reached its peak.

What manner of outsiders are these?

Each one is so absurdly extraordinary!

"Cut!" A voice that sent shivers down His spine pierced the void with a flash of light.

Hummm~!

That annoying sword hum reminded Him of the root cause of all this.

One, two, three…

In the blink of an eye, endless beams of killing light filled the sky.

Master Mei Zu pressed her palm against Hun Tian Yi, Xiang Yuanjun bound herself with karmic chains, and finally Huo severed his will.

Finally, Bie Xuening summoned billions of killing sword beams!

…………

The Beast God Realm's reality.

Stars and moon dimmed together.

The Beast God shattered once more, then reformed—but the light flames around his body had grown extremely faint, and the peculiar mark on his forehead, resembling an eclipse, was no longer as bright as before.

!. Read

Yet in those pale golden eyes, there was not a trace of fear.

"Again!"

With a mighty roar, golden flames surged across the heavens, and the Beast God charged toward Kui once more.

But after only a few exchanges, the Beast God was shattered again, his flesh and blood exploding into the sky like countless ink-colored meteors.

All the Beast God Clan in the Beast God Realm wept uncontrollably; the last remaining Returning Void cultivators forgot their own safety and rushed forward to join the battle.

The human Returning Void cultivators did not stand idly by—they immediately followed as the Beast God Clan surged upward.

But…

The Beast God Realm was, after all, a world capable of housing True Cultivation beings, vast beyond measure.

A True Immortal could come and go at will, their battle's power covering an entire realm—but Returning Void cultivators were far from such power.

And after flying for a long while, the Beast God was shattered several more times, yet their distance from the two remained utterly unchanged.

Existing within reality, yet distinct from it.

All beings in the Beast God Realm could see the battle between Kui and the Beast God, but not one could touch it.

If they could not even draw near, how could they possibly join in?

Realizing this, several human Returning Void cultivators finally halted, ceasing this futile effort.

Boom!

Ink-black shadows exploded across the heavens; the golden flames had now grown extremely faint.

And this time, the speed of reformation was excruciatingly slow…

When the ink-black shadows once again coalesced into form,

the Beast God's outward appearance had changed little from his original state, but his dwindling aura could no longer be concealed.

He was nearing death…

Wuuu~

A mournful wailing seemed to echo through heaven and earth.

All living beings looked up in confusion, feeling only a coolness on their faces; when they reached out, they touched only a dampness.

It was raining.

Though the night sky held not a single cloud, raindrops fell endlessly.

At first, the rain was light, a gentle patter—but in the blink of an eye, the storm grew ferocious, a torrential downpour drenching every corner of the Beast God Realm, as if the world itself wept.

An overwhelming sorrow spread endlessly from within their hearts.

"It is the Supreme Beast God Lord!"

"The world weeps for the Supreme Beast God Lord's calamity!"

"Has even the world grown sorrowful at the vile deeds of these outsiders?"

All members of the Beast God Clan stood in the rain, screaming, tears streaming down their faces.

Most of the humans stared blankly at the sky.

Stars glittered faintly, like the eyes of the world, now blurred by the hazy curtain of rain.

'Is the world truly mourning because of the Beast God's fate?'

Only the Beast God himself stared blankly as the rain poured down from above—then suddenly burst into wild laughter!

That vile Hun Tian Yi!

Perished! (End of Chapter)
