Chapter 260: Chapter Six: Kill the Sovereign

At this moment, both Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu felt something was wrong.

“It’s Yin He—he killed Di Yuan in two or three breaths. Before him, I’d probably last only two or three breaths.” Bai Mo Junzhu was panicked now, for he had no clones.

“Is this Yin He Sovereign really that insane?” Lan Duo Junzhu remained calm—he had a clone at Lei Ting Mountain and still had confidence in his survival.

“Yin He Sovereign…” Bai Mo Junzhu forced a smile and opened his mouth to speak.

“Hmph!”

Luo Feng, wearing a golden mask, let out a cold snort—the Mind Will Secret Art had already descended.

The maximum Mind Will limit of the Origin Continent, combined with the Li Yuan Technique!

“Boom!” “Boom!”

At this moment, both Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu saw nothing else—only a vast star slowly rolling forward, crushing down upon them. Even with ultimate-tier lifeforms and divine emperor-grade artifacts protecting them, the star’s immense, relentless momentum still crushed through their mind consciousness.

Crack crack crack~~~

Countless cracks appeared across their mind consciousness, but the residual will of the Hunyuan bloodline had always influenced them—now, they could no longer suppress it, and both lost control.

“Aaaahhh!!!” Bai Mo Junzhu writhed in agony and madness—he had been an old man with pale skin, but now his white skin stretched and spread, a pair of white bony wings sprouted from his back, and his skin lost its jade-like luster, turning deathly pale.

Lan Duo Junzhu’s blue-white scales now showed more deep blue hues; his body and face rapidly transformed—within a blink, he became a grotesque monster entirely of deep blue.

As they lost control, Luo Feng’s Eye of Birth and Death constantly observed them.

“After losing control, their destruction weaknesses have multiplied.”

Under Luo Feng’s observation:

The dozens of minor weaknesses Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu originally had instantly multiplied into thousands upon thousands.

These weaknesses varied—some were slight, some critical, some even fatal. But all weaknesses required sufficient force to threaten.

Even if a normal Divine King of the First Layer knew these weaknesses, he could not harm either Junzhu in the slightest.

“After losing control, they’ve lost wisdom—and their survival abilities have plummeted.” After confirming this with the Eye of Birth and Death, Luo Feng reached out.

Boom!

A nine-story pagoda appeared high above, instantly descending—and as it fell, it subtly distorted the timeline.

The Star Pagoda’s descent and impact with the enemy occurred at the exact same instant!

No escape possible!

“Puff.” “Puff.”

What seemed like a simple falling pagoda was, in truth, a terrifying killing technique unleashed through the Star Pagoda.

Since acquiring the Eye of Birth and Death, Luo Feng had reorganized his knowledge system. Previously, he had mastered nine “Eight-Branch Fusion” secret arts, yet could not advance further. Now, after his full evolution, he finally took that crucial step—uncovering a “Nine-Branch Fusion Secret Art.”

From Eight-Branch Fusion to Nine-Branch Fusion—it seemed like only one step! But it was a qualitative transformation.

This was an ultimate-tier secret art of the Birth and Death Dao!

Over the past seventy eons, Luo Feng had long observed the Star Pagoda through the Eye of Birth and Death, deepening his understanding of it to a new level—and unlocking greater power from the Star Pagoda.

“No—”

In the instant the Star Pagoda struck Bai Mo Junzhu, perhaps his primal survival instinct granted him a fleeting moment of clarity.

In that moment of clarity, he had an overwhelming sense—he was going to die.

Under the impact of this nine-story pagoda, he had not a shred of life left.

“Didn’t Di Yuan last two or three breaths?” In his final instant, Bai Mo Junzhu had no time to act—only confusion and bitter regret filled his heart.

Puff.

As if a great mountain had crushed an egg, Bai Mo Junzhu was utterly annihilated.

Luo Feng’s Star Pagoda attack also carried curse-killing and karmic linkage techniques—naturally affecting all of Bai Mo Junzhu’s resurrection vessels! These vessels were too fragile—even if hidden in Lei Ting Mountain, a trace of curse-killing energy could destroy every single one.

Curse-killing? Karmic linkage?

Before acquiring the Eye of Birth and Death, Luo Feng already understood these techniques.

After obtaining the Eye of Birth and Death, he could clearly “see” the intricate mechanisms behind them—these techniques naturally underwent full evolution.

True high-level Hunyuan lifeforms could even “soul-pollute” Divine Emperor-tier beings, causing even their Divine Emperor clones hidden within source worlds to eventually perish.

Luo Feng’s curse-killing and karmic linkage were truly insignificant by comparison.

“Puff.”

The nine-story pagoda struck both Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu simultaneously—neither could resist; both were annihilated.

Only the divine emperor-grade artifacts they carried remained—under the Origin Continent’s limitations, they could not be destroyed, and were left intact.

“One Bai Mo Junzhu dead, but Lan Duo Junzhu still lives?” Luo Feng frowned slightly, his Eye of Birth and Death gazing toward Lei Ting Mountain.

He first used Mind Will to induce their loss of control, then identified their most fatal weaknesses, and finally unleashed a full-power Star Pagoda strike.

Bai Mo died instantly—no chance for reincarnation.

But Lan Duo Junzhu… all his other clones were dead, yet his clone in Lei Ting Mountain still lived.

“My curse-killing was mostly blocked by Lei Ting Mountain—the residual power was insufficient to destroy Lan Duo Junzhu’s ultimate-tier lifeform.” Luo Feng sighed inwardly.

Under the Origin Continent’s maximum power limit, killing a Divine Emperor or Junzhu was simply too difficult!

When he killed Di Yuan before, it had taken two or three breaths.

Now, though his power had surged dramatically and he possessed the Eye of Birth and Death, he still could not eliminate Lan Duo Junzhu.

This was precisely why Luo Feng had previously asked Lei Ting Ancestor to punish them! If Lei Ting Ancestor had truly killed those two scumbags, Luo Feng would have owed him a favor. But Lei Ting Ancestor’s pride ran deep—he wouldn’t kill someone just because Yin He asked him to. What did he, Lei Ting Ancestor, owe to Yin He?

In the end…

Luo Feng had no choice but to act himself.

“One dead, one escaped.” Luo Feng waved his hand, collecting the divine emperor-grade artifacts left behind by the two Junzhus—deeply disappointed.

“This—”

“This this this…” Deep within Tianzhu Realm, the two ancient imperial clans’ Divine Kings stared in stunned silence.

Yin He Sovereign’s forced passage through the two ancient clans’ formations had drawn the attention of other Divine Kings deep in Tianzhu Realm. By custom, the Divine Emperors and Junzhus stationed there were obligated to repel intruders.

The imperial clans of both ancient nations—including their Divine Emperors and Junzhus—witnessed Yin He Sovereign attack Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu.

In an instant, neither imperial clan dared intervene.

“In a blink, two Junzhus are dead?”

“Bai Mo Junzhu is completely gone—his karmic traces vanished. He died so cleanly, he didn’t even have time to reincarnate.”

“Lan Duo Junzhu had many clones—but now only his clone in Lei Ting Mountain remains!”

The Divine Kings of the two ancient clans were utterly shaken.

Last time, Yin He Sovereign killed Di Yuan after two or three breaths—Di Yuan had ample time to reincarnate.

But this time?

Please… Your… Collection_(!)

Gone in an instant! No time for reincarnation!

“They were fools—knowing Yin He Sovereign despises evil, yet still dared to plunder recklessly. Now look what happened.”

“From now on, we must never provoke Yin He Sovereign in the slightest.”

At this moment, the two ancient imperial clans had elevated Yin He Sovereign to the same level as their own Ancestors—deeming him absolutely “unoffendable.”

Not even a single word could be spoken in disrespect!

The two imperial clans swiftly reported what they witnessed—news spread rapidly across the Origin Continent; other imperial clan Divine Kings soon received the report, even viewing recorded footage of the battle.

At the entrance of Tianzhu Realm, Luo Feng stood guard.

“Luo He, Luo He.” His Master Di Chu transmitted a voice.

“Master.” Luo Feng replied.

“Yin He Sovereign broke into Tianzhu Realm and instantly killed Bai Mo Junzhu—Lan Duo Junzhu survived only because his clone remains in Lei Ting Mountain. Did you observe this battle clearly?” Di Chu asked.

Luo Feng replied: “I saw it clearly—the battle occurred just beyond the entrance. That Yin He Sovereign is still there.”

“Under no circumstances should you interfere,” Di Chu warned urgently. “You’re just a gatekeeper—this level of existence is beyond your concern.”

“I understand.” Luo Feng replied.

“You don’t understand! You don’t comprehend how terrifying beings at the level of the two Ancestors are.” Di Chu reminded him. “Remember: show not the slightest disrespect—not even a glance. A single hint of disrespect… could be your annihilation. No one on the Origin Continent can save you.”

Luo Feng sensed his master’s concern—he was standing right beside the battlefield.

“Don’t worry, Master. I think Yin He Sovereign despises evil—he won’t harm the innocent.” Luo Feng transmitted back.

“Don’t assume! Bai Mo Junzhu and Lan Duo Junzhu thought plundering and devouring countless lives wouldn’t draw Lei Ting Ancestor’s wrath. What happened?” Di Chu warned. “When facing beings like the two Ancestors or Yin He Sovereign, never gamble on their mercy or their character.”

Luo Feng smiled: “Relax, Master. I understand. I understand.”

He was still concealing his identity to avoid dragging his master and the human race’s cultivators into danger, giving them a safer environment to grow.

On the other hand, it allowed him to act more freely.

“This strike must have shaken Master and the others deeply,” Luo Feng thought.

…

Last time he killed a Divine Emperor, this time a Junzhu! Clearly… no matter how great one’s background, Yin He Sovereign shows no mercy!

Most importantly…

Killing a Divine Emperor in two or three breaths versus annihilating instantly—these are entirely different meanings.

…

Shengshan.

Inside one of its palaces—Lan Duo Junzhu’s residence.

“Chiiiiisss.”

Lan Duo Junzhu sat cross-legged, his blue-white scales now riddled with cracks, blood seeping out.

He stared blankly at the outside world.

“All my external incarnations—including some within the treasure sites—are gone?” Blue Flower Monarch was stunned.

This incarnation within Thunder Mountain had been struck by Luo Feng’s curse, karmic entanglement, and multiple other attacks simultaneously; though severely wounded, it still lived. But all his external incarnations had been erased in an instant.

This chilled Blue Flower Monarch to the bone.

“Is this the power of the Galactic Sovereign?” Blue Flower Monarch trembled with fear. “I’ve also lost two of my divine artifacts!”

This journey to the Pillar World to seek treasures had been forcibly ordered by Thunder Ancestor. Blue Flower Monarch’s incarnations had carried two Divine Emperor-grade artifacts, yet both were now spoils of the Galactic Sovereign.

Blue Flower Monarch gradually calmed down.

He could accept the loss of some incarnations, and the loss of two artifacts.

“Regardless, I’m far better off than Bai Mo—he must be utterly dead,” Blue Flower Monarch thought. “Before the Galactic Sovereign’s two moves, there was no time to reincarnate.”

“Blue Flower, hurry and come with us to pay respects to the Ancestor,” Lei Xiao Monarch transmitted a mental message.

“I’m coming,” Blue Flower Monarch immediately rushed over.
