Chapter 440
Above North Beiju Luzhou, starlight was like a waterfall, and in the daylight, the stars appeared.
Stars lit up in the depths of the firmament, starlight passing through the shattered void holes and falling into the Broken Soul Mountain Range.
The blood-colored clouds that had originally been torn apart by the battle between Kun Peng and Zhen Zhen Yuanzi began to close under the coverage of starlight, and the incomplete laws at the edge of the cracks were pulled by star light chains, returning to the order of heaven and earth.
That was not ordinary starlight, but the divine path pressure of the righteous gods of the Heavenly Court's Dou Department.
Above the nine heavens, the Dou Department star gods came in formation.
They wore star armor, held divine weapons, stepped on star clouds, and hung their respective star authority behind them.
The aura of each star god was connected to the great stars of the firmament, and after connecting into one, it was as if the entire starry sky was pressing toward North Beiju Luzhou.
At the very front, a goddess stood in the center of ten thousand stars, wearing a star crown, draped in an ink-colored star robe, with the sun and moon rotating on the robe and the stars arching over it.
It was precisely the Mother of All Stars, the Doumu Doumu Yuanjun who presided over the Dou Department.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun's gaze swept across the Broken Soul Mountain Range, seeing the broken earth veins, the blood baleful energy filling the mountains, and the cracks on the True Martial Dharma body.
There was no anger on her face, but her voice was cold enough to freeze heaven and earth.
"Righteous gods of the Dou Department, hear my order: repair the firmament, suppress the earth veins."
"Blockade the entire Broken Soul Mountain Range."
As the order fell, the Dou Department star gods took action simultaneously; the Eastern Seven Mansions operated green light to connect the broken spatial laws, the Western Seven Mansions sprinkled white-gold star brilliance to cut away the residual blood baleful energy, the Southern Seven Mansions used red star fire to burn away the blood sacrifice array patterns, and the Northern Seven Mansions drew mysterious water star light to suppress the rioting earth veins.
The remaining star groups dispersed in all directions, mending the firmament, stabilizing mountains and rivers, and locking the void.
Great Emperor Zhenwu saw this scene and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He put away the Demon-Quelling Sword, the Dharma body cracks still there, but the aura had already stabilized.
"Doumu Yuanjun came just in time." Doumu Doumu Yuanjun landed beside him, sweeping a glance at his injuries, "Are you alright?"
Great Emperor Zhenwu shook his head.
"Kun Peng was not aiming at me; he didn't deal a fatal blow."
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun's gaze moved slightly.
"What do you mean?"
Great Emperor Zhenwu looked at Kun Peng in the ink-colored demonic sea.
"He has been stalling. He had the ability to destroy my Dharma body, but he only made a show of force. After Great Immortal Zhenyuan arrived, he still didn't retreat, but instead fought with Great Immortal Zhenyuan; this is truly too abnormal."
"Su Chen told me that this place might just be a place where Kun Peng attracts the attention of the Three Realms."
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun was slightly stunned when she heard Su Chen's name.
"Su Chen is also here?"
Great Emperor Zhenwu nodded and replied: "He was here just now, but now I don't know where he went."
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun nodded slightly and didn't ask again.
Speaking of Su Chen, she thought of how Su Chen had low cultivation back then, but dared to go to the Heavenly Court to ask her for help, using the old affairs of the Jie sect to move her to take action to help that Sun Sun Wukong.
This person had extraordinary wisdom and would not disappear for no reason; since he left, he must have discovered something.
For now, it was still better to focus on suppressing Kun Peng; regardless of what his purpose was, as long as he was suppressed, everything would be clear.
Thinking of this, Doumu Doumu Yuanjun took a step out, and ten thousand stars shook.
"Set up the formation."
Tens of thousands of Dou Department star gods responded simultaneously.
"Obey the Dharma decree!"
The next moment, the star trajectories above North Beiju Luzhou changed.
Strands of starlight poured down from beyond the sky, connecting into a huge star net, which covered the Broken Soul Mountain Range and extended outward for a hundred thousand miles, completely isolating this area.
Kun Peng looked up, his smile undiminished.
"Doumu Doumu Yuanjun has come; it seems the Heavenly Court is going to take it seriously."
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun ignored his provocation; she raised her right hand, and a star-fighting divine seal appeared in her palm.
Once the divine seal appeared, the power of the stars in the universe gathered toward her, with the Ziwei star light as the axis, the Big Dipper as the auxiliary, the Southern Dipper as the lock, the Twenty-Eight Mansions as the array base, and three hundred and sixty-five main stars casting down light pillars into the four directions of the Broken Soul Mountain Range.
The heaven and earth of the entire Broken Soul Mountain Range were frozen at this moment.
Great Emperor Zhenwu looked at this formation, his eyes brightening slightly.
"Dou-Extreme Star-Origin Destruction Array."
This was a star formation recast in the Heavenly Court era, not the Zhou Tian Star-Dou Array of the ancient Demon Court.
The ancient Demon Court took the Demon Emperor Di Jun and Emperor Emperor Taiyi as the core, using the Hetu Hetu Luoshu to deduce the stars, focusing on slaughter and trapping enemies.
And this formation of the Heavenly Court's Dou Department took Doumu Doumu Yuanjun's divine power as the main, Heavenly Dao order as the bone, and the righteous gods of the stars as the pulse, focusing on prohibition and destruction; once this formation was formed, even a Semi-Sage would find it difficult to escape.
Zhen Zhen Yuanzi looked at the star locks filling the sky, a smile appearing on his face.
"Kun Peng, where are you going today?"
Kun Peng stood in front of the Demon Master's Palace, his ink-colored robes blown by the star wind.
Star light chains fell layer by layer, locking his top, bottom, front, back, left, and right, and even spatial laws were nailed to death by the Dou-Extreme star brilliance.
His Kun Peng extreme speed was cut by seventy percent in this formation.
Kun Peng looked at the formation taking shape, not fearing but laughing.
Great Emperor Zhenwu frowned at his appearance, and Zhen Zhen Yuanzi did not take action immediately.
Kun Peng laughed too abnormally; looking at him, he didn't look like he was in a desperate situation, but rather like he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun's eyes were cold.
"What are you laughing at?"
Kun Peng raised his hand and patted the Demon Master's Palace lightly.
"This seat laughs at you all for being arrogant, really thinking that this can trap this seat?"
"Seeking death."
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun heard Kun Peng's mockery, her killing intent flourishing.
She dropped the star-fighting divine seal, and the entire Dou-Extreme Star-Origin Destruction Array operated fully, ten thousand stars rang together, and the star light chains tightened from all directions.
Each chain carried Heavenly Court divine path laws, cutting demonic energy, locking Dao fruits, and destroying primordial spirits.
Great Emperor Zhenwu forcibly supported his Dharma body, the Demon-Quelling Sword unsheathed again.
"Demon-Quelling!"
Frost-white sword light slashed into the star array, and Zhen Zhen Yuanzi's Mountain-Shaking Seal slammed down with the power of the earth veins.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun summoned ten thousand stars to fall in punishment, several forces bombarding Kun Peng simultaneously.
This strike was enough to make a Semi-Sage drink hatred.
Kun Peng faced the joint strike of everyone, naturally not daring to be careless; he put away his Dharma form and revealed his Kun Peng true body.
The Kun Peng true body spanned the firmament, its body covered in black scales containing spatial Dao patterns, its wings covering the clouds, and with a flap, it stirred up a sky full of gales, and a cry resounded throughout heaven and earth.
He vibrated his wings and sacrificed another innate spiritual treasure, the North Sea Sword.
The North Sea Sword appeared, its cold light cutting across the star net.
Kun Peng vibrated his wings, the Demon Master's Palace suppressed in front of him, and the North Sea Sword slashed toward the star locks above his head.
Two innate spiritual treasures erupted simultaneously, ink-colored demonic energy rolled up ten-thousand-zhang waves, forcibly blocking the first round of joint attacks from Doumu Doumu Yuanjun, Zhen Zhen Yuanzi, and Great Emperor Zhenwu.
The Mountain-Shaking Seal slammed down, the Demon Master's Palace shook violently, the Demon-Quelling sword light slashed over, and the innate Dao patterns on the North Sea Sword dimmed.
The Dou-Extreme Star-Origin Destruction Array tightened, star light chains pierced into the Kun Peng true body, and large patches of black scales exploded.
Kun Peng let out a muffled groan, his massive true body pressed down.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun said coldly: "Suppress."
Ten thousand stars fell together, Zhen Zhen Yuanzi raised his hand and pressed on the Earth Book, mountain chains sealed Kun Peng's retreat, and Great Emperor Zhenwu held the sword and slashed again, frost-white sword light taking Kun Peng's brow directly.
If this strike hit, this clone of Kun Peng would be suppressed and extinguished on the spot.
Kun Peng, however, suddenly laughed.
"That's about it."
Zhen Zhen Yuanzi's eyes froze: "He has a backup plan!"
Kun Peng opened his giant maw, and a divine light was spat out from his throat; that divine light was not strong, but carried the aura of suppressing boundless Primordial chaos.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun's expression changed drastically.
"Chaos Bell?"
Immediately, she discovered that it was not the Chaos Bell true body, but a brand.
But within the brand, there was still a trace of the power of the supreme innate treasure.
"Dong!"
A bell sound rang, and the Dou-Extreme Star-Origin Destruction Array stagnated for an instant.
For Kun Peng, this instant was enough.
The Kun Peng true body turned into a black shadow, Kun Peng's extreme speed erupted, and spatial laws tore open the array eye.
He abandoned the Chaos Bell brand he had realized for countless eons, finally forcibly breaking out of the array blockade.
Doumu Doumu Yuanjun wanted to chase, but she understood that without the array blockade, it was almost impossible to catch up with Kun Peng, who possessed the Kun Peng extreme speed divine ability.
Zhen Zhen Yuanzi watched Kun Peng escape, his face sinking.
Great Emperor Zhenwu said in a low voice: "Why would he have a Chaos Bell brand?"
The three fell silent simultaneously.
And outside the Three Realms, deep in the Shattered Star Abyss, Su Chen hung the real Chaos Bell above his head, and it suddenly rang clearly.
