Chapter 1039: Those Who Defy the Heavenly Dao Shall Be Executed! The Twelve Yuan Chen Array!

Although all twelve Yuan Chen were only at the mid-stage of Semi-Divine, Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wushu did not underestimate them in the slightest.

A Semi-Divine who masters the Dao of Time, even if only at the early stage, is far more troublesome than an ordinary Semi-Divine at the peak.

Most importantly, the Twelve Yuan Chen clearly also possess a great array.

And the array they form, without exception, must be related to the Dao of Time.

"By the name of the Dao Ancestor, we execute those who defy Heaven's Dao! The Twelve Ancestral Wushu defied Heaven's Dao by resurrecting—deserving death! Luo Fu defied Heaven's Dao by recklessly resurrecting the Twelve Ancestral Wushu—deserving death!"

The Twelve Yuan Chen had barely appeared when they spoke, pronouncing judgment upon Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

Twelve voices spoke simultaneously, carrying the vast might of Heaven, like the Heavenly Dao itself towering above.

If any ordinary immortal or deity—even a Semi-Divine—

heard the Twelve Yuan Chen's Heaven-like voices, their spirit and mind would be seized.

But the Heaven's might in the Twelve Yuan Chen's words had no effect whatsoever on Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

Compared to the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, the Heaven's might in the Twelve Yuan Chen's words was truly one tier inferior.

After all, the Eye of Heavenly Punishment truly represented the Heavenly Dao.

The Twelve Yuan Chen merely held a fraction of the Heavenly Dao's authority—they could not represent the Heavenly Dao.

"Heh! Defy the Heavenly Dao? How do I know I've defied it? Countless immortals and deities have died and returned—why weren't they deemed to have defied the Dao? Are we truly defying the Heavenly Dao, or merely defying Ancestor Hongjun?"

Luo Fu sneered, his gaze fixed directly on the Twelve Yuan Chen, demanding without restraint.

In response to Luo Fu's question, the Twelve Yuan Chen offered no reply.

They merely stared coldly at Luo Fu, pressing all their vast Heaven's might upon him.

Within that Heaven's might was also a trace of the Dao of Time.

Instantly, Luo Fu felt his perception slow drastically, all surrounding things stretching endlessly.

The Heaven's might pressing upon him grew stronger and stronger.

The ever-strengthening Heaven's might could crush an ordinary Semi-Divine.

Most terrifying was that Luo Fu did not know how long this Heaven's might would last.

After the surroundings stretched and stagnated, Luo Fu could not seek help from others.

Under such circumstances, an ordinary Semi-Divine might truly not endure it.

One must admit—the Twelve Yuan Chen had delivered Luo Fu a harsh welcome the moment they appeared.

The Dao of Time—Luo Fu also excelled at it.

A hundred times, a thousand times better than the Twelve Yuan Chen.

In the entire Primordial World, no one could match Luo Fu in the Dao of Time.

Not even Ancestor Hongjun could surpass him.

Even ordinary Chaos Divine Demons were noticeably inferior to Luo Fu in the Dao of Time.

Because Luo Fu had transcended the River of Time.

Even though he had transcended only a branch of the River of Time within the Primordial World, it was still terrifying.

Below the level of Dao, even those at the half-step to Dao could not transcend the River of Time.

To transcend the River of Time means past, present, and future merge as one.

In this trinity state, the speed of comprehending the Dao of Time increases dramatically.

Moreover, since Luo Fu had reclaimed his past and future from the River of Time, the River's influence upon him was weakened.

In other words, Luo Fu was almost a natural counter to the Twelve Yuan Chen.

"Heh! This mere Dao of Time? You're nowhere near enough to deal with me."

Scanning the Dao of Time imposed upon him, Luo Fu sneered, and his body gave a slight shake.

The faint trace of the Dao of Time the Twelve Yuan Chen had imposed instantly shattered, and Luo Fu's perception returned to normal.

The surrounding things began flowing again.

Clearly, the Dao of Time the Twelve Yuan Chen had just imposed was drastically accelerating Luo Fu's time flow.

Making him experience an immensely long duration within an instant.

And throughout the vast span of time Luo Fu perceived, the overwhelming Heaven's might never ceased.

Under constant suppression from Heaven's might, he would collapse long before the duration ended.

The Twelve Yuan Chen intended to use both the Dao of Time and Heaven's might to force Luo Fu into collapse over an extended period.

Seeing Luo Fu merely shake his body and erase the Dao of Time imposed upon him, the Twelve Yuan Chen all flashed a hint of surprise in their eyes.

They had never encountered such a situation before.

Previously, even when facing Semi-Divines skilled in the Dao of Time, their combined Dao of Time could last a considerable length of time.

Compared to Luo Fu, the Twelve Ancestral Wushu standing before him were far more direct.

Boom!

Under the Twelve Ancestral Wushu's control, the Pangu Body suddenly unleashed boundless malevolent energy.

The Heaven's might imposed by the Twelve Yuan Chen was instantly scattered upon contact with the Pangu Body's malevolent energy, never reaching the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

The malevolent energy on the Pangu Body carried Pangu's aura—what was called Heaven's might paled in comparison to Pangu's might.

Since the Heaven's might had already been scattered, the Twelve Yuan Chen did not even attempt to impose the Dao of Time upon the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

Of course, there was another crucial reason the Twelve Yuan Chen did not impose the Dao of Time upon the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

They sensed the presence of the Dao of Time on the Twelve Ancestral Wushu.

One of the Twelve Ancestral Wushu was skilled in the Dao of Time—and their realm surpassed theirs. Indeed, one of the Twelve Ancestral Wushu was skilled in the Dao of Time: Zhu Jiuyin's primary cultivation was the Dao of Time.

With Luo Fu's aid, Zhu Jiuyin had comprehended the Dao of Time to the peak of Semi-Divine, far beyond the Twelve Yuan Chen.

Since Heaven's might and the Dao of Time had no effect on Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wushu, the Twelve Yuan Chen's only remaining option was the Twelve Yuan Chen Array.

The Twelve Elemental Chens exchanged a glance and immediately began setting up the great array.

Splash!

Behind them, the River of Time began to flow faster, its boundless temporal power surging wildly.

The next instant, twelve celestial authorities descended.

Drawing upon the power of the Heavenly Dao's authority, the Twelve Elemental Chens directly linked themselves to the River of Time behind them.

The vast River of Time, through this connection, began pouring immense amounts of temporal power into the bodies of the Twelve Elemental Chens.

Under the infusion of the Dao of Time, the Twelve Elemental Chens' bodies began to swell.

In little more than an instant, the Twelve Elemental Chens transformed into colossal beasts tens of millions of zhang tall.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The twelve colossal beasts appeared as if teleporting, surrounding Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wus, encircling them completely.

Behind each of the Twelve Elemental Chens stretched a branch of the River of Time.

The twelve branches, positioned at different directions, suddenly formed a perfect circle, sealing off all surroundings of Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wus.

Boom!

Swish!

Boundless Heavenly Dao power began to coalesce; Luo Fu and the Twelve Ancestral Wus felt their vision blur, and the Outer Heavens vanished once more.
