Chapter 522: Revealing the Last Card: Capturing the Divine Little Dragon Emperor, Killing the God—The Crisis Unfolds, What Are You Wa

The void cracks inch by inch, and at the fissure it stacks layer upon layer like cubes.

The great Dao sigils between heaven and earth seem to boil in an instant, clanging and swaying, resonating endlessly.

Everyone's gazes converge on that shattered space, where a Dao‑robe figure riding a Mystic Tortoise emerges; his face is veiled by twisted celestial aura, unreadable, yet his eyes are deep as an endless starry sky!

Mortal Grand Overseer!

All who see this figure are shaken to the core!

The name Dàjǐng of the Heaven‑Observing Office—who does not know it, who does not understand it?

Claimed as the mortal world's representative of the Heaven and Earth Will, he is said to be unfathomable; no one has ever witnessed the Grand Overseer's true power, nor seen him display his genuine cultivation.

The world says the Grand Overseer trains deep within the Strange Abyss, yet no one knows exactly where in the Abyss he cultivates.

Even the famed Information First Hall of the Hunt‑God, with Hunt‑God assassins personally deployed, cannot detect the Grand Overseer's movements within the Abyss.

And today…

While the Human Martial Immortal stubbornly resists the living deities of the Strange Abyss's divine camp, the mysterious Grand Overseer emerges from the shattered space!

Li Che's head of violet‑golden hair whirls wildly, his towering, robust body quivers continuously; his lofty, upright figure spans the sky above Golden Light City, majestic as a mountain, its momentum overwhelming and colossal!

He clenches a three‑pointed, double‑blade knife with his five fingers, a great dragon roars along his spine, seven exotic celestial seeds spin at high speed, and thick, dragon‑like tendrils sprout from beneath his body, constantly trembling and writhing, unleashing terrifying roars!

The Human Martial Immortal's aura is driven to its limit, gazing disdainfully over the world, looking down upon mortals, an invisible aura surging turbulently.

Even when confronting a deity ignited with divine flame, Li Che does not retreat a single moment!

If the opponent seeks to capture his daughter, how could Li Che endure?

A terrifying killing intent bursts from Li Che, as if to soar into the heavens and shatter the clouds.

Yet now Li Che's gaze stretches across, also bearing a hint of surprise and astonishment.

"Grand Overseer?"

Sure enough, it is the Grand Overseer!

Li Che is indeed far too familiar with that Mystic Tortoise.

Of course, Li Che is also quite shocked, never expecting… the Grand Overseer to be hidden so deeply!

Facing a divine‑flame deity now, he can still intervene, shielding Xixi from the terrifying divine tactics!

The mortal world's representative of the Heaven and Earth Will?

Li Che's heart trembles, and this notion surfaces; now, its value may be deepening even further!

The Grand Overseer strikes!

All of Golden Light City, even the entire mortal realm, will be shaken; winds and clouds stir from all directions!

His appearance seems to stir many hearts; numerous cultivators in the mortal world have their faces alight with excitement.

Who says that beyond the Human Martial Immortal there are no top‑tier champions in the mortal world, lacking beings that can contend with deities?

The Grand Overseer acts, shattering the divine pressure that loomed over Golden Light City!

The Grand Overseer sits cross‑legged on the Mystic Tortoise's back, his white Dao robe fluttering in the wind, a veil of swirling sunrise light weaving around him, dreamlike and ethereal; the moment he displays his splendor and celestial bearing, it overwhelms the divine pressure, evoking a feeling of kneeling in worship.

Dong dong dong—

As if ancient bells rang continuously, resonating through the mortal world and the heavens!

Like a war‑calling ancient bell, yet also like a funeral toll!

Ha Shen, clad in silver armor that clanks, has hundreds of great Dao sigils cascading and interweaving around him, and brilliant divine light bursts from his eyes.

"Grand Overseer… Gongxu Guigu?"

A detached voice comes from Ha Shen, showing little emotional fluctuation.

"The mortal world's Heaven and Earth Will… heard to empower your body?"

"That's rather interesting… but you should know what your strike against the deities today signifies!"

Ha Shen says in a deep voice.

On the other side, the Four Seas Dragon Clan's Divine Dragon King joins forces with the Three‑Transform Golden Toad and the Tuota Arhat, besieging the newly revived Third Prince; black flames surge skyward like a black fire lotus, scorching heaven and earth, terrifyingly extreme!

They shatter space, crash into the void to battle, the conflict raging fiercely and tumultuously!

Yet when the Grand Overseer acts, he cannot help but cast his gaze!

One who bears the mortal world's Heaven and Earth Will truly possesses a certain distinction.

After all, everyone knows how crucial the Heaven and Earth Will is to deities!

The Grand Overseer sits upright on the Mystic Tortoise's back, his gaze profound, eyes radiant like sunrise, glittering brilliantly.

"Betting the entire mortal realm, striking for the Jail Lotus Girl…"

"In this divine tide, the mortal world stands on the side of the Jail Lotus Girl?!"

Ha Shen coldly speaks, slowly raising the silver spear in his hand.

The Grand Overseer, seated on the Mystic Tortoise, speaks softly, his voice ethereal: "What talk of choosing sides… this incarnation of the Jail Lotus Girl is innocent, having never slaughtered the world nor let mortal blood run red…"

"She is only an eight‑year‑old girl; what crime does she have?"

"Each divine tide is different, belonging to a different era… the Jail Lotus Girl, in this life… perhaps it is destiny's…"

The divine fire behind Ha Shen blazes intensely, like a crimson sun, stripping all brilliance from heaven and earth.

"Since you have acted… there is no turning back, representing the mortal world's stance; when the divine tide reaches its peak, the Abyss fully merges with the mortal realm, and the will descending from Nine Heavens and Ten Earths signals the cleansing of the entire mortal world…"

"That is the price of choosing the wrong side!"

Ha Shen lets out a long howl, his silver spear trembling; divine fire erupts into a dazzling halo of divine light, a massive divine aura gathering behind him, sprouting pairs of divine wings—twelve pairs in total!

The drums reverberate, instantly weaving divine light.

The silver blade he holds stretches horizontally, the intertwined divine light of the wings behind him propels Ha Shen's form, like silver streaks, tearing the void and delivering the strongest strike!

Dense, interlaced great Dao sigils form orderly divine chains that clang together!

This terrifying strike seems to decide victory or defeat in a single move!

Even the two gods, Heng and Ha, understand that for them time is of paramount importance; they cannot keep delaying with Li Che and the Grand Overseer.

A swift battle and decisive finish: capture the Prison Lotus maiden early, use her to threaten the Third Prince, force him to rekindle the divine fire, and reduce him to ash!

The Grand Overseer's immortal aura wafts, his face blurred, his eyes flicker faintly; facing the terrifying strike of Ha God, he lifts both hands, gently sweeps, and space for him seems as if completely solidified.

It is as if his hands contain the trace of the Great Dao; space tears open, becoming a gaping abyss that swallows the terrifying killing intent unleashed by Ha God!

It feels as if it were shifted into another time and space.

"What?!"

Ha God's eyes narrow, his heart startled; his all‑out move is brushed aside so effortlessly.

It feels like a hard punch striking cotton.

"I, the deity, will not believe it!" Ha God grips the Silver Spear, armor clanging, divine light interweaving and flashing around his body.

The Silver Spear points far ahead as he strides forward in large steps, as if to smash the void, taking matters into his own hands, intending to strike down the Grand Overseer with his domineering divine flesh.

Boom!

Great Dao divine patterns interweave, resembling woven Order divine chains, and a faint divine mini‑realm circles around Ha God.

Where the long spear points, it seems to press the mini‑realm downwards!

The Grand Overseer's wide sleeves flutter, his long hair whirls behind him, his hands form seals; in the void, a Great Seal instantly materializes, surging with countless divine natures and the primal qi of heaven and earth!

Clang—!!

It sounds like a huge bronze gong being struck and exploding!

Ha God's Silver Spear slams down, pressing against the massive Great Seal formed by the condensed space, the killing intent surges endlessly, boiling over!

"Turtle Shell!"

"I'll see… how long you can hold it!"

"This city has now been assimilated by the Strange Abyss, it is no longer of the mortal world! The will of heaven and earth is shrouded by the uncanny mist; how much of its power can you still draw?"

Boom!

Ha God roars in anger, his Silver Spear strikes down again; the divine mini‑realm rotates, seeming to change, now bearing even more terrifying aura and pressure, and it crashes down fiercely!

The Grand Overseer's eyes are supremely calm, yet the surrounding space becomes increasingly turbulent, like an ultra‑precise machine; with a clacking sound it continuously rotates, blocking Ha God's assault!

Rumble—

The great battle erupts without doubt, waves of energy surge skyward in rolling torrents!

Inside Golden Light City, numerous cultivators are dazzled and trembling; despite the overwhelming divine aura that leaves their bodies limp, witnessing such a divine battle satisfies them.

Li Che withdraws his gaze, his heart trembling; with a startled glance he realizes that the Grand Overseer's control over space is beyond that of ordinary deities, extremely familiar.

"The power of heaven and earth?"

Li Che does not linger in thought; his eyes sweep and land on the Heng God clad in golden armor.

Killing intent rises to the heavens!

Heng God's gaze also retracts; the golden spear in his hand trembles, rupturing space, and he thrusts it at Li Che with reckless ferocity.

"I, the deity, do not wish to waste time with you…"

"Mortal martial immortal, if you were among mortals you might be proud, but this city has become the Strange Abyss; within it, we deities… are invincible!"

Boom!

The Golden Divine Spear sweeps out violently, its killing intent surges to the heavens!

Yet Li Che does not dodge; his five fingers grasp the three‑pointed double‑edged blade, he thrusts out a fierce kill, and terrifying golden qi and blood intertwine, erupting Great Dao celestial patterns!

Buzz—!!

Heng God fires a spear point, hammering it into Li Che's flesh; however, Heng God's eyes involuntarily narrow!

Because the long spear pierces through, Li Che's martial immortal skin and flesh are split, yet not a drop of blood flows!

The bloodied flesh pierced by the divine spear seems to gain life; it writhes and actively splits apart, evading his spear!

The force on the long spear is dissipated by the undulating flesh, the divine nature is shattered, unable to continue the crushing strike!

And Li Che's pierced flesh, countless golden qi‑blood threads like a mother's sewing thread, in an instant completes the suturing of flesh!

"What kind of flesh is this?"

"What a monstrous training!"

Heng God is greatly startled, feeling the Golden Divine Spear in his hand being gripped by a massive hand; Li Che's violet‑golden hair whirls, lightning seems to interweave in his eyes, colliding with Heng God's gaze.

He clutches the Golden Divine Spear tightly, preventing Heng God from escaping!

Using his flesh as bait, he lures Heng God to pierce voluntarily, thereby pulling the flesh inward!

Boom—!!

Li Che lets out a long howl; seven mysterious celestial seeds simultaneously detonate!

The terrifying force climbs step by step; Li Che suddenly exerts power in his feet, stamping hard, causing the void to burst completely under his foot, then golden qi‑blood surges like a flood of drakes, and with a swift yank he attempts to yank the Golden Divine Spear from Heng God's hand.

But behind Heng God, divine fire roars, divine light blazes ten thousand folds!

Even faced with Li Che, a peerless martial immortal, Heng God shows no worry; instead, a disdainful sneer lifts his lip corner.

"Seeking death!"

Heng God still grips the Golden Divine Spear, releasing massive divine power; divinity surges into the spear, instantly forming resonant divine patterns on its surface, and a torrent of divine aura erupts outward!

The revived Golden Divine Spear, at this moment, bursts forth with unprecedented might!

And this is still not Heng God's main killing intent.

He suddenly clamps his mouth shut, his cheeks bulge, emitting brilliant golden light, as if Great Dao divine patterns swirl like a roaming dragon within his mouth!

It seems to weave into an Order divine pattern!

Like two serpents winding with his breath, they travel from his cheeks through his nasal cavity, down along his nose bridge.

Finally, it turns into a "Heng"!

Hum——!

Hum——!!!

Rumble——!!!

The sound roared like angry thunder, the sound waves surged like tides, and the two order divine patterns, like wandering dragons, burst forth from Humming God's nasal cavity!

It was as if thunder cracked on flat ground, snatching away all sound!

It was a unique secret technique, fully integrating the Great Dao, as if mastering a strand of sound, imbued with the Dao's breath, granting this hum a terrifying power that could annihilate everything.

The void rippled, as if a cloth were shaken, bulging in places, constantly pushing outward horizontally.

And in the space cleared by the annihilation, everything shattered and collapsed!

Great Dao Secret Technique!

Li Che felt a shock in his heart; the Young Dragon Emperor had told him of such methods. Every divine spirit that ascended to the Divine Fire realm could already, with the aid of Great Dao divine patterns, weave a unique secret technique of their own, called the Great Dao Secret Technique, whose power was terrifyingly formidable—a manifestation of the Great Dao's might!

Boom——!!!

The sound wave expanded so fast that it slammed directly into Li Che's ears; he only felt a buzzing in his head, as if it exploded, a momentary deafness, losing the ability to perceive the world's sounds, and the terrifying impact power contained in the "Hum" divine sound twisted his flesh as if contorting.

Bang——!!!

Li Che was hurled violently, soaring through the air in a frantic spin, like a top flinging five hundred zhang, then a three‑pointed double‑edged blade plunged in sharply, as if slicing the very void open.

He clutched the double‑edged blade, standing still, his head dizzy and vision blurred.

Li Che's outer body, the Primordial Celestial Pattern combined with Primordial Celestial Qi and Golden Blood, formed armor that crackled with a "ka‑ka‑ka‑ka" of fissures, gradually fragmenting and falling away.

"What?!"

Humming God's eyes revealed a look of astonishment.

He had already employed the Great Dao Secret Technique; this single hum could shatter any Divine Fire spirit's flesh, yet this mortal martial immortal stubbornly withstood the Great Dao Secret Technique!

"How can this flesh be so powerful?!"

Humming God's eyes darkened slightly, showing a trace of solemnity and anger.

Li Che's jet‑black hair whirled wildly, electric currents interlaced in his eyes, his murderous intent surging.

The martial immortal's golden body rang clangingly, surpassing even divine weapons, and he forcibly swallowed Humming God's terrifying Great Dao Secret Technique.

In fact, Humming God's strike was truly formidable; his outer body was interwoven with Great Dao Celestial Patterns and celestial qi forged armor, an unmatched defense!

The armor shattered, turning into interlaced celestial qi that coiled around him like a multi‑looped flood dragon, winding around his arm.

"Very well... As a martial Dao immortal, such a flesh, the blood you shed must be comparable to top‑tier divine pills! Truly a rare divine treasure!"

Humming God's golden armor rang clangingly, gripping the golden divine spear, he whirled wildly, then took a grand stride again.

Li Che employed celestial qi; the entwining qi raised his celestial lineage martial arts power by one level.

The double‑edged blades rang clangingly, their light streaking wildly!

Celestial qi coiled onto the blade, order chains interwove, Great Dao Celestial Pattern rang clangingly, the ultimate Primordial Fire Tribulation erupted, scorching and warping the void, its power unmatched!

Li Che's murderous intent surged, planning to break the stalemate; a thought sparked, allowing the prepared Young Dragon Emperor to stealthily approach for a strike.

Humming God naturally noticed the Young Dragon Emperor cloaked in a black robe, but the Earth‑Heaven Chessboard's full operation concealed him, preventing Humming God from discerning who the black‑robed figure was or whether it posed a threat.

"Two of you are the same... without igniting Divine Fire, you cannot become divine spirits; you all are merely ants."

Humming God thrust the golden divine spear forward fiercely, aiming straight at Li Che, while two golden lights spun again in his nasal cavity, accompanied by a thunderous "Hum" sound.

The divine sound roared vast, Great Dao divine patterns fell like thunder, surging with the divine sound like tidal waves!

Destroy everything, annihilate all!

Li Che let out a long howl; the thunder‑magnetic track whirred, dark‑golden thunder‑magnetic force burst forth, celestial qi surged and gathered on the blade. The double‑edged blade curled, forming the Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant Furnace amid countless clangs of blade qi, dazzling and bright. The Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame burned mountains and boiled seas, becoming a divine dragon and demonic elephant that spanned across, colliding with the Great Dao Secret Technique's divine sound!

Dong——!!!

This was Li Che's full‑power measure, immensely strong, successfully blocking Humming God's Great Dao divine sound.

This made Humming God's eyes grow increasingly heavy, his divine fire flickering, divine light rotating!

Suddenly, he caught sight of the black‑robed figure charging, his murderous intent and anger shifting onto the black‑robed figure.

"What, cats and dogs dare to kill this god!"

"Seeking death"

He abruptly raised the golden divine spear, thrusting straight through the black‑robed figure, intending to pierce and nail him into the void!

However, the next moment, an extremely intense crisis struck Humming God's mind!

Bzzzz—

One Great Dao divine pattern after another descended, a sphere of ultimate blazing divine fire shone intensely, leaping up from behind the black robe, like a great sun rising over the sea!

"Not good!"

Humming God was greatly startled!

At the instant he saw that divine spirit's divine fire, his heart understood the crisis had arrived!

This black‑robed person, unexpectedly, was...

Beside Li Che, there was also a divine spirit lending aid!

It turned out to be...

His Great Dao divine sound had just been cast, without any remaining power or means to confront the suddenly appearing divine spirit, precisely when his tactics—

And moreover—

Around the Young Dragon Emperor, one Great Dao divine pattern after another interwove and fell, dense as a rain of falling blossoms!

Between heaven and earth, a metallic tremor burst forth; beneath the black robe, a hand emerged, instantly transforming into a golden dragon claw, its dragon scales piled together, countless streams of divine heat erupting!

Sheets of divine techniques of killing swirled, a vast torrent of divine light surged across the sky!

From the black robe burst forth, striking Humming God fiercely!

The air itself seemed frozen, completely sealed; the terrifying divine pressure, like a cascading waterfall, hammered heavily upon Humming God.

Humming God's hair wildly danced, and a look of shocked anger flashed across the Divine Spirit's face; behind him, divine fire trembled uneasily.

Who is it?!

Boom boom boom—!!!

The terrifying pressure drove Humming God into madness, a chill surged, countless divine patterns interwove over his armor; he brandished a golden divine spear and thrust fiercely, slashing at the golden dragon claw!

Thud—!!!

The golden divine spear was knocked sideways!

The Young Dragon Emperor was surrounded by nearly hundreds of Great Dao divine patterns; although he had become a restrained deity and had not fully restored his peak power, he was far from insignificant, his combat strength even surpassed Humming God's!

Though his combat strength was greater, he still attempted a sneak attack!

Despair rose in Humming God's heart.

Pfft! The dragon claw slammed onto the golden armor; Humming God instantly spewed blood, his body was flung sideways in mid‑air, and the golden divine armor burst apart inch by inch!

"You are…"

"Young Dragon Emperor!"

Humming God sensed that familiar divine might!

Beyond his own terrifying pressure, a dreadful oppression from the bloodline of the first‑generation Immortal descendants surged!

Young Dragon Emperor…

Didn't you die beneath the Heaven's Will Chopping Blade?

Did the flying ash vanish?!

Fake?

Fake! Everything is fake, it was all a play!

"Ahhh! Despicable!"

Humming God coughed up blood like onyx beads, his eyes blood‑red, divine patterns interlaced over his whole body!

Beneath the black robe, the Young Dragon Emperor's face was cold and ruthless within his hood, murderous intent radiating!

"Kill!"

Li Che's three‑pointed double‑edged blade twitched sharply, breaking through the Great Dao divine sound.

He planted his toe, the void crumbled inch by inch, his five fingers clenched, the flying thunder chess pieces activated, the Heaven‑and‑Earth chessboard finally ensnared, and a piece was placed upon it.

In an instant, as if teleporting, he appeared at Humming God's side!

No mistake, one verse, one shot, one inside, one containing, one at, one look!

His five fingers formed a fist, the sole celestial qi coiled around it; the Battle Victory Immortal Martial Arts ultimate secret technique was unleashed, delivering a crushing punch, while the double‑edged blade swung violently upward.

The Ancestral Dragon Killing Technique learned from the Young Dragon Emperor manifested at this moment, countless blade qi rang bright, forming a great dragon that slammed onto Humming God!

The Young Dragon Emperor took a great stride, the golden great dragon spear emerged, he grasped it, swept it across, also deploying the Ancestral Dragon Killing Technique!

Golden great dragon condensed, intertwining with the silver great dragon cut by Li Che!

They slammed into Humming God's body!

Boom!!!

A boundless killing aura erupted like an endless sea; blade qi raged, spear light rolled like mountains, soaring skyward, forming two massive dragons that wrapped the ultimate killing power, striking down as if spanning ten thousand ages!

Humming God's flesh was ripped apart in an instant, exploding into countless clumps of blood mud!

Everything happened far too quickly!

A divine fire spirit was blown to pieces in the blink of an eye!

The divine fire flickered, as if about to vanish from the mortal world; blood‑filled qi surged, the entire Golden Light City was shrouded in crimson, blood rain poured endlessly!

Buzz buzz buzz—

A golden ancient temple rose, divinity sweeping like a storm; the shattered flesh of Humming God formed a mound, and from the blood mud a temple was forged!

Guiyi Miao!

Divine spirits fell, forging the Guiyi Miao!

Humming God felt he might be annihilated today, so he forged the Guiyi Miao to seek another life, to be reborn in the next divine tide!

The ancient temple trembled, terrifying power burst forth, as if a Great Dao river flickered faintly; it was an extremely slender Great Dao river—had Li Che not once sailed the Martial Dao river and sensed its flow, he would have thought he was mistaken.

It was merely a Great Dao stream, truly minuscule!

Li Che's eyes glowed faintly; within his chest, the Pure Heart Dao Fruit thundered, his seven‑orifice exquisite heart pounded.

Watching Humming God, newly forged into the Guiyi Miao, a bright light flashed in his eyes!

Targeting the temple deity…

He has special means!

Pure Heart, summon deity!

Li Che suddenly spread the Heaven‑and‑Earth chessboard; the grid‑like intersecting lines seemed to cut the world into small square regions.

Star positions on it flickered with flowing light, as if a great hand descended from the board.

Like a hand of the heavens, formed by the world itself!

Then it enveloped the entire Guiyi Miao!

Clack clack clack—

Within the Guiyi Miao, a Divine Eagle was forged—it was Humming God's Divine Eagle, now glaring furiously, roaring and howling!

Its voice also carried hints of terror and despair!

Something's wrong…

This is wrong!

Boom!

The entire Guiyi Miao, like a spring bamboo shoot, was ripped straight out of the void; the great Dao rivers converged, coalescing into an incomparably huge star‑like body that enveloped the Guiyi Miao, hovering above the suddenly formed Heaven‑and‑Earth chessboard.

The weight was immense, as if it would crush the Heaven‑and‑Earth chessboard; the crisscrossing lines of the board sank in, collapsing into a region!

The Young Dragon Emperor's eyes flashed, a lingering fear in his heart; a lord is a lord, such terrifying and uncanny methods!

Between heaven and earth, blood rain poured down; resentful thoughts, lingering divine thoughts, filled with anger and despair—

All cultivators were stunned as if turned to wooden chickens, shocked into numbness.

Even many people hadn't yet grasped what had happened, how in the blink of an eye the situation had turned.

The moment the man in black intervened, he instantly slew the Heavenly Court's principal deity Heng Shen!

And in the distance.

The Ha Shen, blocked by the Grand Overseer, was even more chilled to the bone; his silver armor clanged, and he halted his assault on the Grand Overseer.

His expression turned extremely grim, coldness surging; Heng Shen… is dead!

The Heng Shen of the same Dao rank ignited divine fire, illuminating the void, transcending the mortal world; the Heng Shen who held a seat in the Dark Heavenly Court has fallen.

A chill rose in his heart, teeth clenched, incredulous; murderous intent roiled, yet a sense of retreat also emerged!

"Young Dragon Emperor!"

He looked at the man in black; the Heng Shen had fallen victim to the Young Dragon Emperor's trap!

He hadn't expected a Young Dragon Emperor to suddenly emerge; know that the Young Dragon Emperor's divine fire reignited, his power is immensely strong, because within him flows, among the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, an ancient dragon, the immortal Dragon Emperor's bloodline!

He is truly a heavenly pride monster, a descendant of top‑tier elites!

In the same realm, few can fight him.

Other deities reigniting divine fire can usually be cut down by a single heavenly decree blade, but the Young Dragon Emperor requires three such blades!

The blood rain scattered, like a rain of falling blossoms.

Li Che's violet‑gold hair fluttered, a wisp of celestial aura coiled around his towering martial immortal body like a flood dragon; interwoven purple primordial celestial patterns, exceedingly uncanny.

"Kill!"

"Today… any deity that dares to attack… must die!"

Li Che said coldly.

He clenched his five fingers, gathering the shattered blood and flesh of Heng Shen, which coalesced into a blood‑colored mud platform, upon which the lingering Dao divine patterns intertwined, like blood‑colored lightning.

The scene highlighted Li Che, terrifying as a demon immortal!

Boom—

The Grand Overseer sat atop the Mysterious Turtle, his face shrouded in celestial aura, with the rhythm of heaven and earth weaving around him; his white Dao robe fluttered, his bearing unparalleled, his black hair billowed, and his eyes beneath the aura were extraordinarily uncanny, light rain drifting, hazy and ethereal.

The Mysterious Turtle widened its eyes, like a bronze bell.

Damn!

Killed?!

This guy Li Che actually killed a deity; that was a deity that truly ignited divine fire!

How is he so awesome!

The Mysterious Turtle felt utterly incredulous; when he first met this guy, he was someone who had to handle turtles with great caution! Yet after such a short time apart, he can already slay deities!

What a fierce fellow!

"Grand Overseer… Old Turtle thinks you seem to have… bet correctly again."

The Mysterious Turtle smacked his big mouth, muttering.

A creature like this, wagering the whole mortal world for a fight, isn't entirely impossible!

The Grand Overseer seemed to smile, which the Mysterious Turtle could sense.

On the other side.

The terrifying Buddha light burst apart; the seven‑tiered treasure pagoda above was riddled with cracks, and a dark flame‑wrapped, densely etched Dao divine pattern treasure ring struck it hard, trembling, nearly exploding!

The Towering Arhat sweated profusely, and the great Buddha's dharma image behind him seemed about to shatter.

Although the true Cosmic Ring, Fire Spike Spear, Mixed Heaven Silk, and so on are all on the Prison Lotus Daughter Xixi's body.

Yet the Third Prince Temple Deity's divine weapon, forged from Prison Lotus fire, is slightly inferior, also coiled around the Third Prince's Dao divine pattern, its power extremely terrifying!

The murderous intent overflowed and released, rolling like chaos, seeking to annihilate everything!

Fortunately, the Four Seas Divine Dragon King, together with the Three‑Transform Golden Toad of the Strange Demon Cave, jointly succeeded in suppressing the Third Prince.

The Third Prince was enveloped in black flames, arms spread toward the heavens, his throat continuously emitting low roars, explosive sounds, rolling like waves!

The colossal golden toad's illusory shadow, like a mountain, pressed down on the Third Prince.

On the other side, the Four Seas Divine Dragon King spat out a dragon pearl, summoned Dao divine patterns, forming four vast seas that suppressed the Third Prince beneath them!

"Break it open for me!"

Suddenly.

The heavens and earth began to drizzle blood rain.

The Third Prince, who was exerting force, suddenly froze, feeling the resentful divine thoughts within the blood rain, and he burst into a loud laugh.

The Third Prince turned his head toward the distance and saw Li Che, like a demon immortal, gripping a three‑pronged double‑edged blade, his body wrapped in celestial aura, holding aloft a twisted, interwoven Dao divine pattern residue sphere of divine flesh.

"Hehehe…"

"Truly worthy as the father of this God Tide Prison Lotus Daughter, truly a man who survived even under the curse of the Heavenly Doom Lone Star!"

The Third Prince grinned widely.

His eyes shone brightly!

Because he saw Li Che move, taking great strides toward the black fire lotus area; each step caused the void to ripple violently!

Boom—!!!

Li Che suddenly halted his stride!

His body lunged forward, and the flesh ball of humming divine flesh and blood he held—woven together—was hurled out like a rugby ball!

The air suddenly twisted into a vortex, countless turbulence raging around!

This divine flesh ball flew straight toward the Third Prince!

The target was crystal clear!

When the Qi‑Heaven was revived, it killed the Supreme One, and by devouring its flesh and blood, its body recovered…

That Third Prince…

Directly devouring divine flesh should let him recover even faster!

Boom—!!!

The Great Buddha's golden light dazzled, the Tower‑holding Arhat supported a seven‑story golden pagoda, the veil quivered, and wandering souls erupted!

They strained all their strength to block the Third Prince from restoring his divine power; if a divine spirit's flesh were devoured by the Third Prince, how could they fight?!

"Damn it!"

"Stop him!"

Buzz—

The Tower‑holding Arhat stepped forward fiercely, the golden Great Buddha's law image rang clangorously, Order divine chains continuously fell, like divine thunder raging around.

Both arms swung up violently, aiming to strike and block that humming divine flesh!

However—

The space around the flesh ball twisted, as if violet‑golden lightning twisted and lashed, interweaving endlessly.

Li Che's figure instantly appeared; the one who had thrown the flesh ball, after a flash‑like lightning shift, materialized nearby, five fingers clenched, seized the flesh ball, and, facing the golden Great Buddha, resolutely struck it!

As if an ancient deity angrily slammed into the world's spine!

Immortal aura whirled wildly, the Myriad‑Transformation Dragon‑Elephant Furnace rose, within it myriad Dao‑calamity forces intertwined!

Bang—!!

Instantly, the Great Buddha exploded into fragments, its body pierced as if a black hole were drilled, and Li Che strode forward several fierce steps, like a god and a demon!

Li Che turned, slapped down a palm, the Myriad‑Transformation Dragon‑Elephant Furnace rose and pressed horizontally, its dragon‑elephant flames surged sky‑high, re‑subduing the Great Buddha!

Li Che continued forward, hoisting the flesh ball, as if charging with a rugby ball!

The Tower‑holding Arhat's hair stood on end!

How can this mortal martial immortal be so ferocious!

What exactly is that unique power?!

The Four Sea Dragon King is a four‑headed winding divine dragon, its divine light radiant, its divine fire raging, hovering in the air; seeing this, the South Sea Dragon King broke away, baring fangs and claws, slashing out terrifying dragon claws, intending to block Li Che!

"Young Dragon Emperor!"

Li Che said coolly.

In the next instant, the Young Dragon Emperor shifted to appear beside Li Che, thrust his head up sharply, and his black robe flared open!

Two sharp dragon horns pierced the firmament, his azure hair whirled wildly, as if a golden divine dragon coiled behind his back, divine fire ignited, and countless Daoic order chains behind him clang!

"How audacious!"

The Young Dragon Emperor coldly and majestically stared at the claw‑out South Sea Dragon King, the aura of ancient dragon blood surging from his body!

A scolding shout, like a tongue‑splitting thunder!

The South Sea Dragon King's divine fire flickered, and panic instantly flashed in its eyes.

"Young Dragon Emperor?!"

A bewildered look surfaced— the Young Dragon Emperor isn't dead? Why is he instead helping the Third Prince escape?

Have the old blood feuds been forgotten? The Third Prince's long‑sealed fury—has it all vanished?!

How could the Young Dragon Emperor aid a Third Prince?

Boom!

The Young Dragon Emperor clenched a fist, his golden dragon claw formed a fist, he slammed it out, and with rolling dragon might, he hammered the South Sea Dragon King like a cannonball, sending it crashing onto the ground of Golden Light City, carving a massive deep pit, and countless eerie mists surged outward like tide.

With the South Sea Dragon King's block gone, Li Che threw again; the humming divine flesh instantly turned into a cannonball, shooting toward the Third Prince.

It can't be blocked.

Clap—!

The Third Prince, released from the suppression of the Four Sea Divine Dragon and Golden Toad Divine Mountain, lifted his arm woven with divine patterns, grabbed the humming divine flesh, his five fingers sank into it like five straws, greedily siphoning the power within the divine flesh.

Gurgle—...

The aura on the Third Prince's body rose rapidly, countless Daoic divine patterns coalesced, one after another, dense as a thunder‑pool, wildly dancing in the chaos!

Behind him, arm after arm sprouted...

Feeling the power continuously returning.

The Third Prince let out a long howl to the heavens.

Black flames surged instantly, black lotuses spiraled and expanded.

In an instant.

The Third Prince's five fingers clamped the flesh ball, beneath him two black prison‑lotus wind‑fire golden light wheels spun, hoisting his body, unleashing terrifying speed, appearing before the Tower‑holding Arhat.

"Young master… the most… hateful pagoda!"

The Third Prince was enraged.

The Tower‑holding Arhat looked up, his expression complex.

The Third Prince coldly: "What are you looking at? I've come to collect you."

His palm slammed down fiercely!

Immediately.

The black fire‑tipped spear, as if it were a divine spear that pierces the chaos of heaven and earth.

Instant slash!

Divine blood splatters, Buddha light erupts!

Pierce Tuota Luohan's flesh through the Heavenly Spirit Cover and nail him dead in the void!
