Chapter 447: Kill Kun Peng Goes Mad, the Blood Sea Descends
Deep within the Star-Crushing Abyss, fragments of continents plummeted from the void, only to be shredded by space storms.
Kill Kun Peng stood at the center of the destruction, the bloodstain on his brow still wet, his entire body surging with monstrous Qi.
Having fallen into a state of madness, his Kill Kun Peng true form loomed over the heavens, and he actually took the initiative to launch an attack against Doumu Yuanjun and the other two.
Zhen Yuanzi hovered above with the Earth Book; the phantom of the Earth Immortal Realm's land manifested in the outer realms, and earth-yellow divine light descended in layers, transforming into a mountain prison in an attempt to trap Kill Kun Peng.
Doumu Yuanjun stood amidst the starlight, the Star-Dou Divine Seal suspended in her palm, ready to strike Kill Kun Peng at any moment.
Emperor Zhenwu, lacking sufficient strength, could only interfere with Kill Kun Peng's movements using his Demon-Sweeping Sword intent from the sidelines.
Zhen Yuanzi struck first. He pressed down with one palm, and the Earth Book flipped open, causing the phantoms of ten thousand mountains to press down from the void of the outer realms.
Kill Kun Peng dodged Zhen Yuanzi's attack using the Kill Kun Peng Extreme Speed technique, spat out a mouthful of Northern Underworld cold air, froze the heavens, and shattered the Earth Book's prison.
Zhen Yuanzi's killing intent was laid bare. He pointed a finger, casting the divine ability "Mountain-Shaking God Finger." The tip of his finger condensed thick, profound-yellow energy, carrying the weight of ten thousand mountains as it struck at Kill Kun Peng.
"Kill Kun Peng, the debt for Hong Yun has reached the time for settlement today."
Kill Kun Peng looked up, his eyes devoid of any retreat. He generated a water curtain with Northern Underworld laws to block Zhen Yuanzi's Mountain-Shaking God Finger.
"Settling debts?" Kill Kun Peng let out a cold laugh, the sound growing louder and louder, shattering the meteorites surrounding the Star-Crushing Abyss one after another.
"Zhen Yuanzi, what qualifications do you have to settle debts with this seat?"
"Back then in the Purple Heaven Palace, Hong Yun played the good person, yielding his prayer mat and ruining my opportunity."
"His death was because he was stupid; it was what he deserved. In the struggle for the Dao in the Primordial era, whoever is a step slow deserves to die."
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi shook his horsetail whisk, and the white strands transformed into heavenly chains, locking toward Kill Kun Peng.
Kill Kun Peng spread his wings, and the ink-colored monstrous Qi transformed into a Northern Underworld sea tide, shaking off the chains.
Doumu Yuanjun, seeing that the two were evenly matched, finally made her move.
She let her Star-Dou Divine Seal fall.
"Suppress."
Three hundred and sixty-five main star light pillars descended from the depths of the void. Although this was not the Three Realms, Doumu Yuanjun forcibly drew down the power of the stars using her authority as the Mother of All Stars. The starlight transformed into locks, piercing through the monstrous Qi and hooking onto Kill Kun Peng's true form.
Emperor Zhenwu stepped forward, and his Demon-Sweeping Sword slashed down. The frost-white sword light split the ink-colored monstrous sea, aiming straight for Kill Kun Peng's throat.
The three joined forces, their strikes all lethal.
Kill Kun Peng's eyes turned blood-red, and he flapped his wings, space laws condensing upon them.
A Great Peng phantom emerged behind him.
The Peng tore through the void; the Great Peng phantom forcibly held up the Star-Dou star locks and the Demon-Sweeping sword light.
Boom!
Within the Star-Crushing Abyss, dozens of broken star lands were struck by the shockwaves and turned into dust on the spot.
Kill Kun Peng's body swayed, and the wound on his brow seeped blood again.
Although he was very strong, he had just been interrupted at the critical moment of refining the Grandmist Violet Qi by Su Chen, and his origin had been shaken by the Chaos Bell.
At this moment, facing the joint siege of Zhen Yuanzi, Doumu Yuanjun, and Emperor Zhenwu, he was finally struggling.
Zhen Yuanzi noticed this, and the Earth Book flipped another page. Yellow light spread out, and the phantoms of mountains and rivers contracted inward.
"You cannot leave today."
Kill Kun Peng looked coldly at him.
"You cannot keep this seat."
As the words fell, the void in the outer layer of the Star-Crushing Abyss suddenly tore open, and a black shadow smashed through the starlight blockade with incredible speed, heading straight for the battlefield.
Doumu Yuanjun's eyes sank.
"Stop him!"
The Star-Dou Divine Seal changed direction, and dozens of star locks instantly nailed toward the black shadow.
But the black shadow was too fast; with one flash, it bypassed the star locks, and with another, it was already behind Kill Kun Peng.
Emperor Zhenwu saw the black shadow clearly and said in a deep voice, "It is that Kill Kun Peng from the Three Realms; this might be one of his three corpses!"
Zhen Yuanzi nodded.
"This should be his self-corpse."
The black shadow bypassed the three and crashed into Kill Kun Peng's body.
The next moment, Kill Kun Peng transformed into human form. His previously chaotic aura gradually stabilized, and two streams of light emerged from him. One transformed into a pitch-black palace suspended above Kill Kun Peng's head, the sound of ten thousand demons worshipping echoing through the outer realms—it was the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Demon Master Palace.
The other stream fell into Kill Kun Peng's palm, transforming into the Northern Underworld Sword. As the blade vibrated, black frost formed in the surrounding void.
Kill Kun Peng held the Northern Underworld Sword, his combat power reaching its peak.
Doumu Yuanjun saw this, her expression solemn. She formed seals with her hands, and the stars rearranged themselves into a formation.
Zhen Yuanzi protected himself with the Earth Book and summoned the Mountain-Shaking Seal once more.
Emperor Zhenwu held his sword before him, prepared for a great battle.
The three looked at each other, their eyes filled with an extra layer of solemnity.
This was the true Demon Master of the ancient era.
Kill Kun Peng raised the Northern Underworld Sword, pointing the tip at Zhen Yuanzi.
"This seat has endured for countless eons. Today, I finally found an opportunity to attain the Dao."
"But it was ruined by a little thief."
"Since you let that little thief escape, you shall bear the brunt of this seat's fury!"
Kill Kun Peng stepped forward, and the Demon Master Palace above his head opened with a roar. Ancient demon scripts burned, transforming into an ancient Demon Court killing formation.
He swung the Northern Underworld Sword, and a black sword light crossed the Star-Crushing Abyss.
The Earth Book's light curtain blocked Zhen Yuanzi, and the sword light struck the curtain.
Boom!
The earth-yellow light curtain was forcibly sliced open at a corner, and Zhen Yuanzi retreated half a step.
He looked down at the Earth Book; the scroll was undamaged, but the light curtain it generated had been sliced open.
Kill Kun Peng sneered.
"Zhen Yuanzi, your tortoise shell is not unbreakable."
Zhen Yuanzi looked up, his killing intent undiminished.
"Then you can try again."
Doumu Yuanjun seized the opportunity to strike, smashing her Star-Dou Divine Seal toward the Demon Master Palace.
Emperor Zhenwu followed closely, his Demon-Sweeping sword light merging with the starlight as he slashed into the Demon Master Palace's formation patterns.
The Demon Master Palace shook, and the roars of ten thousand demons echoed from within the palace gates.
Kill Kun Peng countered with a sword strike, the Northern Underworld cold light severing the star flow. Then, he spread his wings, and with a flap, his Kill Kun Peng Extreme Speed erupted, heading straight for Emperor Zhenwu, the weakest of the three.
Zhen Yuanzi summoned the Earth Book to block in front of Emperor Zhenwu.
Emperor Zhenwu borrowed the protection of the Earth Book, meeting the Northern Underworld Sword head-on with his Demon-Sweeping Sword.
As the two swords collided, Emperor Zhenwu's dharma body shook, and cracks appeared on it once more, but he did not retreat a single step.
Kill Kun Peng's eyes were gloomy.
"Zhenwu, do you really think this seat dares not kill you?"
Emperor Zhenwu gripped his sword, his voice steady.
"You can try."
Kill Kun Peng was about to strike again when Zhen Yuanzi's Mountain-Shaking Seal descended from behind him, and Doumu Yuanjun's star locks simultaneously clamped onto his wings.
Zhen Yuanzi's voice came through.
"Kill Kun Peng, where is Hong Yun's Grandmist Violet Qi?"
Upon hearing this, Kill Kun Peng's anger intensified.
"Grandmist Violet Qi?"
He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with uncontrollable rage.
"That violet Qi was startled away by that little thief Su Chen! It was he who let the Grandmist Violet Qi escape!"
"You don't go after him, but instead come to block this seat?"
Zhen Yuanzi said coldly, "If not for you harming Hong Yun back then, how could the Grandmist Violet Qi have been lost until now?"
Kill Kun Peng laughed in extreme anger.
"Hong Yun, Hong Yun, always Hong Yun!"
"He has been dead for countless eons, yet you still cling to his old debts."
After speaking, the Demon Master Palace above Kill Kun Peng's head pressed down, and the ancient demon scripts ignited, transforming into an ancient Demon Court killing formation.
The Northern Underworld Sword slashed again, sword light, demon scripts, space laws, and devouring laws erupting together.
Zhen Yuanzi's Earth Book crossed the sky, resisting the Demon Master Palace head-on.
Doumu Yuanjun summoned the Star-Dou Divine Seal to smash toward Kill Kun Peng's true form.
Emperor Zhenwu seized the gap in the sword light, thrusting his Demon-Sweeping Sword into Kill Kun Peng's shoulder.
Demon blood splattered, and Kill Kun Peng struck out with a palm, sending Emperor Zhenwu's dharma body flying.
Doumu Yuanjun swept her star robe, catching Emperor Zhenwu.
Zhen Yuanzi seized the opportunity to activate the Mountain-Shaking Seal, and the ten-thousand-zhang seal fell from the void, smashing onto the Demon Master Palace.
The Demon Master Palace shook violently, and Kill Kun Peng groaned in his throat.
Although he had returned to his peak, Zhen Yuanzi and Doumu Yuanjun were not ordinary Semi-Sages.
Zhen Yuanzi was an ancient power equal to him; once the Earth Book was out, he was invincible. Doumu Yuanjun held the authority of the stars, locking the space, and her killing power was not weak either.
And Emperor Zhenwu was a madman, ignoring his own injuries to constantly ambush him with the Demon-Sweeping Sword.
Kill Kun Peng found the fight increasingly difficult, and as he gradually regained his composure, he began to harbor thoughts of retreat.
However, every time his Kill Kun Peng Extreme Speed began, the star locks would descend, forcing him back.
Kill Kun Peng finally realized that things were going poorly, and the Semi-Sage origin within him began to boil.
Zhen Yuanzi's eyes flickered.
"He is going to risk his life."
Doumu Yuanjun raised her hand, the light of the Star-Dou Divine Seal surging.
Just at this moment, on the other side of the Star-Crushing Abyss, the void suddenly turned blood-red.
A river of blood appeared out of thin air, and upon it, a twelve-petaled Red Lotus of Karmic Fire slowly bloomed.
Upon the red lotus, a Daoist walked over the waves, two killing swords emitting piercing screeches behind him.
The Friend Ming He Minghe Laozu of the Blood Sea had arrived. He looked at Kill Kun Peng, who was surrounded in the center, a smile appearing on his face.
"Old Kill Kun Peng, don't be so hot-headed. You cannot handle a divine object like the Grandmist Violet Qi."
The Friend Ming He Minghe Laozu waved his hand, and the sea of blood surged into the sky.
"Hand the Grandmist Violet Qi to this Minghe Laozu, and I will save you."
