Chapter 1390: Destiny King Art

When that majestic, sweeping collision appeared, the entire Boundary River Domain seemed to fall utterly silent in that instant, every sound vanishing at this moment.

The greatest sound is silence.

In the eyes of Li Luo and the many others, all they could see reflected was that indescribably vast energy tidal wave born at the point of collision, then spreading outward at an awe-inspiringly terrifying speed, sweeping across the entire Boundary River Domain.

Fortunately, at this moment, Dantai Lan, Zhao Zong, and Zhu Yuan standing at the front bore the brunt of this shockwave; otherwise, these onlookers would have been torn apart on the spot, more than half of them reduced to shreds by the energy impact.

Li Luo stared in awe at the scene. Dantai Lan's Unparalleled Art naturally pressed down upon heaven and earth, radiating a perfectly consummate, unparalleled charm—this was the most resplendent art in the world, a peerless jewel standing at the very pinnacle of physiognomy arts.

But beyond that, the Destiny-grade Marquis Arts displayed by the three king-level powerhouses—Qin Jiujie, Zhao Zong, and Zhu Yuan—were equally breathtaking.

Li Luo himself also cultivated a Destiny-grade Marquis Art, yet the one he wielded was like fireflies compared to the bright moon when set against what these three king-level powerhouses displayed.

Because the Destiny-grade Marquis Arts of these three king-level powerhouses were not only driven by the power of the Three Phases but also flowed with the aura of Origin.

That was one of the most primal and powerful forces between heaven and earth.

At this moment, in Li Luo's perception, those three Destiny-grade Marquis Arts radiated an ineffable divine charm—a wondrous sense of "Destiny is within me; I am Destiny itself."

"This is the true Destiny-grade Marquis Art," Li Luo murmured, his eyes filled with a look of utter intoxication.

When this Marquis Art was unleashed, the target was destined to be unable to evade; no matter how wondrous one's movement and speed, this Destiny Marquis Art had already locked onto them.

Once the art emerged, it drew the blessing of all the forces of heaven and earth.

And under the coverage of such a Destiny-grade Marquis Art, the one locked on would be abandoned by Destiny, rejected by all the forces of heaven and earth.

This was the ultimate essence of the Destiny-grade Marquis Art.

"A Destiny-grade Marquis Art wielded by a king-level powerhouse can no longer be called a Marquis Art. Perhaps calling it a Destiny King Art would be more fitting." As Li Luo sighed in wonder, Li Li Qingpeng beside him laughed and explained.

"Destiny King Art?"

Li Luo was taken aback. He was quite unfamiliar with the term; after all, he had rarely witnessed king-level battles, and naturally it was hard for him to see king-level powerhouses pour out everything in their execution of a Destiny-grade Marquis Art—no, a Destiny King Art!

Still, though the two differed by only a few characters, the charm between them was instantly worlds apart.

"So before a king-level powerhouse, a Marquis-level powerhouse—whether lower-grade or upper-grade—is nothing but an ant, because you simply cannot resist the suppression of Destiny."

Li Li Qingpeng sighed with emotion, then added: "Unless some Marquis-level powerhouse has initially cultivated an Unparalleled Art and, borrowing that Unparalleled intent, can remain unaffected."

"After all, though Destiny is lofty, it is still not loftier than the glory of the Unparalleled since ancient times."

"Look, although the Destiny King Arts of the three kings—Qin Jiujie and the others—do command Destiny, beneath your mother's Unparalleled Art, they still pale in comparison."

Li Luo looked up, gazing at the sky above the distant Abyss City. When the Destiny King Arts of the two One-Crown Kings, Zhao Zong and Zhu Yuan, collided with Qin Jiujie's, almost in an instant, Qin Jiujie's pitch-black thunder-fire pearl shattered the two, causing the void to collapse and the energy tidal wave to surge violently.

Qin Jiujie, at the Two-Crown King realm and bolstered by the "Black Water Spirit Transformation Array," was clearly far beyond what Zhao Zong and Zhu Yuan could compare to.

But this was no reason for Qin Jiujie to relax, because the gold-and-silver seal pearl falling with the might of the Unparalleled was the greatest threat of all.

The gold-and-silver seal pearl circulated with hundreds of millions of gold and silver streams of light; each stream seemed to pierce through layer upon layer of void, then poured out from space, penetrating every crack.

In the end, the two pearls collided.

At the instant of collision, Qin Jiujie's pupils abruptly contracted. Then, reflected in his eyes was the vast, boundless gold-and-silver light. In that moment, it seemed as if a golden roc spread its cloud-trailing wings, splashing out countless spatial turbulence currents.

These spatial turbulence currents actually invaded the Black Water Spirit Transformation Array, and immediately the black ocean within rapidly grew thin, being directly banished into layer upon layer of void.

"Space Phase!"

Qin Jiujie's heart shook. This Dantai Lan had actually used the Space Phase to invade the Black Water Spirit Transformation Array, cleaving and dividing this strange array from within.

Such a method exceeded Qin Jiujie's expectations.

And as the black ocean was banished, the might of the Black Water Spirit Transformation Array plummeted instantly, and the "Destiny King Art" bolstered by it naturally weakened along with it.

Crack!

At such a critical juncture, this kind of weakening was simply fatal.

Dantai Lan was a Grand Unparalleled Marquis, and now she unleashed her Unparalleled Art—what terrifying attack could that be? So almost in the blink of an eye, Qin Jiujie heard the faint sound of a pearl shattering.

The wolf pearl containing thunder, flames, and black water was directly shattered by the gold-and-silver seal pearl upon impact.

In an instant, thunder-fire and black water ran rampant, turning this area of several thousand li into scorched earth and black marsh.

And as the gold-and-silver seal pearl fell, a single light strike shattered the Black Water Spirit Transformation Array into a skyful of black light specks.

This king-level strange array that had guarded Abyss City for hundreds of years was completely broken at this moment.

Then the gold-and-silver seal pearl swayed unsteadily; its trajectory seemed slow, yet it directly pierced through layer upon layer of space, smashing down toward Qin Jiujie from above.

Above Qin Jiujie's head, two layers of king crowns poured down rolling pure light, blocking before him.

Bang!

As the gold-and-silver seal pearl fell, the pure light suffused with the aura of Origin trembled violently. The qi and blood within Qin Jiujie's body surged wildly, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"What a Grand Unparalleled Marquis, what an Unparalleled Art!"

Qin Jiujie's expression was solemn. He himself possessed the strength of a Two-Crown King; in terms of level, he was in no way inferior to a Grand Unparalleled Marquis, yet in this clash he had been suppressed by Dantai Lan.

This could only mean that Dantai Lan's combat power was truly too monstrous.

However, Qin Jiujie himself was in perfect condition, so compared to the Faceless Underworld King who had previously been smashed into grievous injury, he was in considerably better shape.

But the pressure pouring down mightily from the gold-and-silver seal pearl also caused the two layers of king crowns above Qin Jiujie's head to tremble ceaselessly.

"Faceless!" Qin Jiujie roared in urgent summons.

"Ready!"

The Faceless Underworld King let out a long howl. At this moment, most of Abyss City had already been submerged by a white flood. The next instant, the void within the city began to collapse.

This mighty city seemed to be sinking toward the depths of the void.

And faintly, in those depths of the void, what seemed to be another expanse of space and heaven and earth could be glimpsed.

There, cities stood upon plains and among mountains, teeming with life, a scene of peace and prosperity.

Qin Baiyan, Qin Beiming, and many other powerhouses of the Qin Li Tianwang line turned pale with shock, because among those cities, they seemed to see the insignia of the Qin Li Tianwang line.

At the end of that space... was the Outer Shenzhou, the domain of the Qin Li Tianwang line!

What were they trying to do?!

At the same time, the bone-white towers within those cities erupted with countless beams of light. These beams pierced through distant layer upon layer of void, projecting into the void of the Boundary River, into the giant eyes of the Three-Pupil Fetal Demon King.

The next instant, within the giant eye, what seemed to be pitch-black fresh blood transformed into a torrent that swept forth; that jet-black fresh blood, along the light rays emanating from the White Bone Pagoda, rapidly congealed within the layered voids, forming a black blood bridge that stretched for tens of millions of miles.

Under the horrified gazes of countless people, the blood bridge descended from the heavens, plunging into the Abyss City that had collapsed deep into the void.

In the end, the blood bridge pierced through the barrier between heaven and earth.

Dantai Lan, Zhao Zong, and Zhu Yuan, upon seeing this scene, all changed expression drastically. They raised their heads to look at the hollow in the Boundary River, only to see that the waters of the Boundary River churned violently, actually beginning to use that blood bridge as a medium, rumbling as they pierced through heaven and earth, howling down.

It was like a world-destroying flood.

And at the end of that flood was... the territory of Qin Li Tianwang's lineage in Tianyuan Outer Shenzhou!

Zhao Zong and Zhu Yuan cried out in shock.

"Qin Jiujie!"

"You actually want to draw this strange calamity toward Qin Li Tianwang's lineage?!"

"Have you lost your mind?!"
