Chapter 103

The transmission of power in the Feathered Ascension Heavenly Palace, Elder Tian Xing, Elder Jiang Rourou and other senior elders, and down below at various places Fang Han, Yan, Hundred Battles Immortal, Jin Rilie and his son, Jia Lan, Long Xuan and others were once again having their perception refreshed by the magnitude of Chen Zheng's power, as if they had lost the ability to speak.

The world between heaven and earth became so quiet that one could hear a needle fall.

Many with keen eyes could see that if Elder Tian Xing had not intervened to save Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao's fate would have been grim.

Chen Zheng's blast was terrifying.

How could such terrifying divine power exist in the world?

Could it be inherited from the Celestial Realm?

Or perhaps Chen Zheng is the reincarnation of a demon lord from the Demon Realm?

Everyone's hearts were filled with doubts.

In fact, the Great Calamity Ancient Cannon Chen Zheng unleashed was merely at the introductory stage.

One must use calamity count as the barrel and calamity flow as the projectile to unleash the true power of the Great Calamity Ancient Cannon.

In other words, the more "calamity" characters Chen Zheng cultivates, generating more calamity counts, the stronger the Great Calamity Ancient Cannon becomes.

If Chen Zheng had at this moment cultivated hundreds of "calamity" characters, then Elder Tian Xing would not only be unable to save Ling Xiao with his own hands, but would himself be crushed into fragments by Chen Zheng's cannon that spans seven great realms.

Moreover, after the True Demon Ten Thousand Calamities Unbreakable Body is cultivated to a certain level, the Great Calamity Ancient Cannon would transform into the Cataclysmic King Cannon, and with a single blast the gods would fall and all ages would be annihilated!

"Were you saved? Consider yourself lucky."

Chen Zheng looked at Ling Xiao held in Elder Tian Xing's hands, and his eyes showed little surprise.

All because a true disciple at the Golden Core realm is far from ordinary.

Whether in the Feathered Ascension Sect or any other sects, Ancient Giants are few.

Even the world's most powerful Taiyi Sect regards Ancient Giants as pillars of the middle stream, never to be slain lightly.

Otherwise, the Supreme Patriarch would be alarmed, dispatching unparalleled masters to trouble the murderer.

Elder Tian Xing rescuing Ling Xiao from Chen Zheng's hands is therefore reasonable.

Just now, Chen Zheng also thought that it would be best to blast Ling Xiao dead with a single shot.

Even if he didn't kill him, it would still establish his might and intimidate those who harbor ulterior motives.

Of course, establishing his authority does not stop there.

Chen Zheng moved again, gathering a massive yang‑energy hand several thousand zhang tall, soaring toward the summit of Tian Du Peak, its five colossal fingers descending to grasp the Nine‑Palace Golden Tower.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

On Tian Du Peak, it seemed as if an earth dragon turned over, shaking violently; the mountain cracked everywhere, forming huge fissures from which boiling magma poured.

This is because the Nine‑Palace Golden Tower, after repeated refinement in Hua Hua Tiandou Du, was placed atop Tian Du Peak, merging with the underground fire veins of the peak.

If others forcibly seize the Nine‑Palace Golden Tower, they would disturb the power of the underground fire veins, requiring the ability to move an entire ten‑thousand‑zhang mountain.

At this moment, Chen Zheng's magical power was comparable to an Ancient Giant, a feat that did not trouble him at all.

A booming "humm…" rang out, and the Nine‑Palace Golden Tower was ripped off by the yang‑energy hand, detaching from Tian Du Peak, shrinking together with the hand and flying toward Chen Zheng.

Tian Du Peak seemed to lose its supporting spine, suddenly collapsing a third of its height, leaving only about seven thousand zhang.

The grand palaces, jade towers, towering trees, and rare spirit plants meticulously built by the Heavenly Palace Courtyard collapsed in an instant, becoming ruins drowned by the scorching magma spewing from the fissures.

"Ah!"

"Help…"

The cultivators of divine arts on the peak were fine; they had already slipped away and fled.

Many Physical Body Realm Warriors without spirit tools perished, only able to struggle and wail in the magma, then were mercilessly devoured.

"Not bad, could sell a lot of pills," Chen Zheng's eyes showed no trace of compassion, only a chilling indifference, as he caught the returning Nine‑Palace Golden Tower.

Although this Nine‑Palace Golden Tower is not as formidable as the Demon Blade Blood Azure Sky, it is not weaker than the Five Prisons King Cauldron.

More valuable is that this treasure has been refined by Nine Yang Holy Water, becoming a Pure Yang artifact, a bane to evil spirits, greatly increasing its worth; it can fetch many White Yang Pills on the market.

Speaking of pills, the two hundred million pills he traded with Qiu Xiyu have not yet been used.

The two new "calamity" characters on the Sheep Skin Scroll have not yet been comprehended.

He must cultivate them first.

But not now.

He crippled Ji Hui, severed many elders' limbs, and seized the Nine‑Palace Golden Tower; he does not know how those senior elders in the Feathered Ascension Heavenly Palace will treat him.

If the senior elders punish him for this, he can only betray the Feathered Ascension Sect, use the teleportation talisman given by Linglong Immortal Sovereign to return to Linglong Blessed Land, and join this faction.

He believes this faction would not refuse.

Of course, after witnessing Chen Zheng's monstrous level, the senior elders of the Feathered Ascension Sect are unlikely to do such a foolish thing.

Frankly, once a person reaches a certain level of genius, they enjoy privileges in any sect.

However, Chen Zheng must also stay vigilant.

A strand of his mind is already fixed on the teleportation talisman in his bosom, ready to transport at any moment.

"Chen Zheng, you've vented enough anger; come to the Feathered Ascension Heavenly Palace, we have some questions for you," the transmission‑power elder said from the palace, his expression complex.

"Fine." Chen Zheng nodded in agreement, about to fly to the Feathered Ascension Heavenly Palace to see how the elders would respond.

"Villain, you dare destroy my mountain, seize Brother Hua's Nine‑Palace Golden Tower; you are courting death, utterly courting death!"

A sudden booming shout erupted from outside the Feathered Ascension Mountains, deafening, scattering the sea of clouds in the sky.

The crowd startled, hurriedly looked toward the source of the sound.

At the far horizon a stone gate towering ten thousand zhang spanned the sky, tearing the celestial atmosphere as if teleporting, surging forward.

The stone gate's simple ancient design resembled the palace doors of the primordial gods, its surface carved with intricate patterns that flowed with divine radiance, as if etched by deities.

Flanking the gate were coiled celestial dragons and soaring divine phoenixes, exuding an ancient, desolate aura that shook heaven and earth.

"Brother Wanluo from Taiyi Sect has rushed back!"

Many of those who escaped from Tian Du Peak were elated, and they all recognized the origin of the Stone Gate—it was Wan Luo's exquisite treasure, Rashomon!

Before Ling Xiao appeared, they had already sent word about Chen Zheng's crime to Hua Tiandu, who was inside the Great Unity Gate.

Hua Tiandu was thunderously angry, but because he had to forge ten thousand Jiazi Great Pills for the Great Unity Gate as atonement, he had no time to deal with Chen Zheng, so he sent Wan Luo back to the Feather Ascension Gate.

Now Wan Luo has finally returned.

"Good!"

In the ruins, Ji Hui and the others, upon learning of Wan Luo's arrival, couldn't help shouting their approval.

They all seemed convinced that even if Chen Zheng could defeat Ling Xiao, he would still be 100% unable to escape Wan Luo's punishment.

Because Wan Luo is not an ordinary Ancient Giant.

This person has cultivated the Coiling Martial Great Strength Divine Art taught by Hua Tiandu!

To live as long as heaven and earth, shining together with the sun and moon—that is the Disc. Power that can shield the sky and seize the stars—that is the Martial!

Those who practice this art not only have extraordinarily high magical mass, but their magic is also immensely potent—tens to hundreds of times that of cultivators of the same realm.

It is rumored that in the ancient era, a disciple under the Coiling Martial Immortal Patriarch Sect had just ascended to the Shen Tong Mi Jing when he already attained the strength of a hundred thousand Xuanhuang Fiery Horses.

How terrifying is that?
