Chapter 704: Liu Shen, you

Just as Shi Ziling, Qin Yining, and the little one Shi Hao were pouring out their grief over parting, Fang Yu's gaze turned to the elder of the Immortal Mountain, and that elder immediately felt it was inappropriate to stand—he knelt down.

Not only the elder of the Immortal Mountain, but many others also knelt.

The Immortal Mountain's methods truly struck Fang Yu as absurd—was merely summoning Shi Ziling and Qin Yining enough? This was far too childish.

Don't they even look at what the Immortal Mountain did to Shi Ziling and Qin Yining? How dare they summon these two back to play the family card?

"I despise the Immortal Mountain!"

Shi Ziling spoke from a distance.

"So this is what the Immortal Mountain is like."

Shi Hao also frowned—he had never realized so many hidden truths: first, his mother's lineage had been defeated in the Upper Realm and imprisoned; second, when he was near death, the Qin Zu had remained cold and refused to help, unwilling to waste sacred medicine on a worthless cripple; third, to harvest his Supreme Bone, they had even aided Shi Yi's growth—the Demon Spirit Lake had not cultivated Shi Yi because he was a genius, but because the Immortal Mountain ordered it.

Of these three points, Shi Hao said little about the second, but the first and third were utterly outrageous—now that circumstances had turned, the Immortal Mountain still had the audacity to beg his parents for mercy—how shameless could they be?

"Qin Yining, you are still of the Qin Zu—do you just watch as our Qin Zu's lineage in the Lower Realm is utterly destroyed? Here is your other child—he too is of the Qin Zu! Since birth, he received how much cultivation support from our clan!"

The elder who had been forced to kneel by Fang Yu's aura sensed trouble and spoke out hastily.

"Whether you are spared or not depends not on others, but on me—and also on the one who projected down from the Upper Realm—but ultimately, it depends on me."

In Fang Yu's hand appeared a sword—the upper-grade Dao artifact, Great Chaos Lei Jian.

At the very moment Fang Yu summoned the Great Chaos Lei Jian, violent changes erupted in the nearby void—a boundless radiance bloomed, as if star rivers were born and perished, or morning dew rolled through crimson clouds; the heavens and earth there flickered unpredictably, revealing intricate and profound cosmic orders.

A terrifying fluctuation and an incomparable aura intertwined, forming a strange scroll—a scroll flowing with chaotic light, terrifying beyond measure.

Heaven and earth transformed drastically—supreme experts manifested, about to descend.

Everywhere was light, flooding the heavens and earth; in the void appeared a colossal figure, wreathed in a brilliant silver halo.

"Immortal Mountain Tianzun!"

The surviving offspring of the Peng bird roared, uttering those four words.

Immortal Mountain Tianzun!

He was the true giant of the Upper Realm's Immortal Mountain, who would normally never care about affairs in the Lower Realm—but now, with Fang Yu's arrival, the Five Elements Mountain seized, the Immortal Mountain's divine spirit slain, and its Lower Realm lineage nearly extinguished, this Upper Realm giant had been forced to send down a projection.

Merely a projection, yet still terrifying—his appearance was youthful, like a boy, surrounded by endless silver-white light, as if a great sun enveloped him.

One after another symbols leapt from his mouth—the Immortal Mountain Tianzun recited the Immortal Mountain Scripture, pressing down upon Fang Yu.

At that very instant, Fang Yu, wielding the Great Chaos Lei Jian, vibrated one hundred million Great Chaos Divine Thunderbolts in a fraction of a moment.

It seemed as if heaven itself would collapse, the world would be destroyed, the myriad realms would be reborn and annihilated anew—in that moment, the entire Xuan Region trembled; all living beings felt their souls violently tugged, their hearts cut like knives, and they knelt involuntarily.

"How dare you!"

The young Immortal Mountain Tianzun enraged—but when the hundred million Great Chaos Divine Thunderbolts engulfed the space, everything was erased.

The Immortal Mountain Tianzun's projection, barely descended to the Lower Realm, was slain by Fang Yu's hundred million strikes.

The upper-grade Dao artifact, Great Chaos Lei Jian, revealed its terrifying power that shook the myriad heavens.

The Qin Zu of the Immortal Mountain, witnessing this, were plunged into despair.

Even the surviving offspring of the Peng bird showed utter shock—originally, the Immortal Mountain Tianzun's projection descending meant a brutal battle for him, yet he never imagined the projection would be obliterated outright by Chaos Thunder, utterly annihilated.

This was a slap directly across the Immortal Mountain Tianzun's face.

"The Immortal Mountain Tianzun's projection was slain? He was a Tianzun—a supreme being in the Upper Realm, whose words shook the heavens! Now his projection is dead—what do we do now?"

"I don't know—we're meat, that god is the knife—we can only be slaughtered at will."
