Chapter 1722

Silence.

When Xu Jingming seized the Nightmare Candle God like a dead dog and stored it in his World Ring.

The entire Black Stone Ruins fell into a deathly silence.

They were not unfamiliar with powerhouses, nor had they never experienced life-and-death battles.

Yet this scene still exceeded their comprehension.

A Seventh-Level Immortal suppressing an old-timer Immortal in combat.

From start to finish, it took only a few dozen breaths.

Total domination, no suspense.

In the end, it wasn't even a kill—it was a capture!

This isn't a fight—this is clearly an adult beating a child!

"What kind of monster is Su Chen?"

Ke'erte's heart trembled, and he was utterly baffled.

How could someone like this be unknown?

"Damn it! Is the Nightmare Candle God just gone like that?"

Luo Yi Si also hadn't reacted yet.

He was still calculating how to reap the benefits like a fisherman.

But given this situation.

Su Chen wasn't injured at all!

His divine power probably wasn't even significantly depleted!

He simply couldn't bring himself to act.

"Run! Run now!"

As everyone stood stunned and dazed.

The three immortal demons who had followed the Nightmare Candle God finally reacted.

Without hesitation, they turned and fled!

What loyalty, what racial honor—before death, it's all nonsense!

Even Lord Nightmare Candle God was captured alive; staying means only death!

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

Three figures turned into streams of light, madly fleeing toward the ruins' outskirts.

However—

"You think you can escape?"

Xu Jingming's icy voice rang out.

He didn't even glance at the three, merely a thought stirred.

"Boom-crack——!!!"

Within the Chaos Pearl's suppression domain, three thick as water buckets gold-green Lei Ting struck down from nowhere!

At a speed impossible to dodge.

Precisely smashing onto the heads of the three immortal demons!

"No!!!"

The three immortal demons only managed half a scream before being completely submerged by Lei Ting.

Their divine bodies rapidly melted in the Yang God Lei, consciousness instantly plunging into darkness.

Xu Jingming waved his hand, storing the three slumbering demon immortals into his World Ring.

"Ultimate Immortal Level—though a bit weak, but usable enough."

He murmured softly.

After doing all this, Xu Jingming slowly turned around.

His gold-purple eyes, filled with demonic aura and lightning.

Sweeping toward Luo Yi Si and his group.

Next, it's their turn!

At this moment, Mu Wanqing and Chu Kuang finally snapped out of their shock, rushing to Xu Jingming's side.

"Lei Shen, you..."

Chu Kuang wanted to say something, but found his throat dry, unsure where to begin.

Mu Wanqing was more concerned about Ye Li's condition, she urgently asked:

"Su Chen, how is Ye Li elder sister?"

"She has fallen into a deep sleep; I tried to wake her with divine sense, but to no avail."

Xu Jingming shook his head.

He then lifted his gaze to Luo Yi Si, his voice suddenly turning cold:

"Antidote."

Just two simple words, yet carrying a chilling killing intent.

Luo Yi Si's heart jolted, but thinking of his identity, he quickly regained composure:

"Antidote? Sorry, we don't have it.

This is an SSS1-level Menglian Zhu; once used, there is no cure."

"Menglian Zhu?"

Xu Jingming's eyes flickered, but Vera's cry of alarm rang out in his sea of consciousness:

"It's actually this thing!"

"You know the Dream-Bewildering Pearl? This thing really has no cure?"

Xu Jingming hurriedly asked within his sea of consciousness.

"As far as I know, there isn't one.

Once struck by the Dream-Bewildering Pearl, one will fall into an eternal slumber, never to awaken again.

However, I am merely an Undying Overlord; my experience is limited.

Later you can go ask your teacher."

The succubus little loli Vera spoke with some hesitation.

"Good, I understand."

Having received confirmation, Xu Jingming's gaze turned even colder.

The Lei Ting around his body, which had originally slightly calmed, once again stirred restlessly.

Royce's expression couldn't help but change upon seeing this, and he rebuked sternly:

"Su Chen, you want to make a move on me?

Do you know my father is the Burning Heaven Overlord!

That is a Supreme Overlord! My family's ancestor is even a Realm Venerable level powerhouse!

Are you sure you want to make an enemy of my Burning Heaven Family?"

He attempted to use his background to pressure him.

"Su Chen! I advise you to think clearly!

The wrath of a Realm Venerable family is not something a mere little Invincible Immortal stage like you can bear!"

The other two Immortal stage powerhouses beside him also spoke up in agreement with arrogant expressions.

Obviously they didn't believe Xu Jingming would make a move.

"Clamor."

Xu Jingming couldn't even be bothered to waste words.

He raised his hand, pointing a finger.

"Chi!" "Chi!"

Two strands of gold-green Lei Guang, fine as hair, flashed by.

Aside from Colt, the other two Immortal stage powerhouses didn't even have a chance to react.

A charred blood hole simultaneously appeared at the center of their brows.

Their eyes stared wide, round as marbles.

Threatening expressions still lingered on their faces, but their divine bodies were already rapidly collapsing.

Instant kill!

Two titled Immortal stage powerhouses.

Before the current Xu Jingming, they were no different from ants.

"You actually really dared to make a move?!" Royce finally panicked.

He hadn't expected Xu Jingming to be so decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

"Damn it!"

Colt's expression likewise changed drastically; he turned to flee!

But under the Chaos Pearl's suppression, his flight speed was extremely slow.

"Die!"

Xu Jingming didn't pay attention to Colt; anyway, he could capture him back later.

Right now Royce was more important; he moved his divine power, directly activating the Chaos Pearl.

"Weng——!!!"

The Chaos Pearl's Jin Guang flourished greatly, terrifying suppressive power pressing toward Royce like a mountain peak.

At the same time, Xu Jingming's figure moved like lightning, the Ninefold Thunder Prison Spear stabbing out once more!

"Burning Heaven Mirror! Nine Dragons Protect the Body!"

Royce was shocked and furious, frantically activating the Burning Heaven Mirror.

Nine crimson flame dragons rushed out from the mirror surface.

Coiling around his body, forming a flame barrier.

However——

"Ka cha!"

Under the Chaos Pearl's suppression, the nine flame dragons' movements slowed by more than ten times?

Xu Jingming's long spear entered as if into an unguarded realm.

Easily tearing through the flame barrier, heavily blasting into Royce's chest!

"Pu——!!!"

Royce wildly sprayed a mouthful of fresh blood, his divine body instantly losing 50%!

No way.

Compared to the Night Candle God, his foundational strength was too poor.

His divine body was merely a second-grade divine body.

All his strength relied entirely on the Burning Heaven Mirror.

The Burning Heaven Mirror was suppressed, and he himself was naturally weak and pitiable.

"One strike makes me lose 50% of my divine body?!"

His face turned as pale as paper, and fear finally appeared in his eyes.

How can he be this strong?!

The Burning Heaven Mirror is a peak treasure; in his hands, it can contend with ordinary invincible immortals.

Yet facing Xu Jingming, he couldn't even block a single strike?

Xu Jingming didn't hesitate in the slightest, eradicate evil completely!

He flipped his wrist, and the long spear rose again.

The spear tip locked onto Royce's brow, the Sunday Divine Lightning highly compressed and condensed.

This strike, must kill!

"Father! Save me!!!"

At the moment of life and death, Royce no longer cared about dignity, screaming shrilly.

Meanwhile, in a distant starfield.

Inside a giant star entirely composed of flames, a magnificent palace stood.

The palace was entirely crimson, as if poured from lava, emitting terrifying heat.

On the palace throne, a middle-aged man wearing crimson battle armor with double horns on his head suddenly opened his eyes.

He was the Burning Heaven Sovereign!

Royce's father, the current clan head of the Burning Heaven Family!

"Not good! My son is in danger!"

The Burning Heaven Sovereign's expression changed abruptly.

Divine flames erupted around him, illuminating the entire palace brightly.

"Who dares to move my Burning Heaven son?!"

His hair stood on end with rage,

Vast divine thoughts instantly crossed endless time and space, locking onto the position of the Black Stone Relics.

Black Stone Relics.

Just as Xu Jingming prepared to thrust his second spear, completely ending Royce.

"Hum!!!"

The Burning Heaven Mirror behind Royce suddenly burst forth with blinding red light!

A blurry illusion emerged from the mirror surface, quickly solidifying.

It was the illusion of a middle-aged man with double horns and crimson battle armor.

Though only the size of an ordinary person, it exuded an abyssal, vast pressure.

It was indeed the Burning Heaven Sovereign!
