Chapter 982: Familiar Recognition, Great Battle Begins, One Sword Slays Tian Canzi

“You’re—!”

Tian Canzi showed surprise at this sudden attacker.

He flipped his palm, and the force of cosmic laws flowed like silk, endless and unbroken.

This was a great divine art of the Divine Silkworm Valley: the Bone-Melting Palm.

Yet the ghost-faced white-masked man simply extended his palm, ordinary and unremarkable.

Chaotic energy churned and coalesced into a Great Chaotic Hand Seal, its palm lines clearly visible, as mysterious and profound as the patterns of celestial orbits.

BOOM!

Violent tremors erupted here, and the entire ancient city hummed in resonance.

Had the city’s exterior not been coated in Divine Trace Purple Gold, it would have shattered outright under this blow.

Cough!

At the point of collision, it was as if two meteorites had crashed—bones cracked and blood coughed up echoed.

Tian Canzi was blasted backward like a cannonball, blood splattering through the air.

“How is this possible!”

Ri Shenghu and Yue Shenghu were both stunned.

Tian Canzi was a seed-level prodigy, awakened from slumber, and upon his emergence, he already possessed Supreme cultivation.

He could be considered one of the top young Supremes in the Immortal Realm.

Yet now, he had been flung away by a single palm strike.

Even if his own lord had emerged, subduing Tian Canzi would have taken three or four moves.

“You have the cultivation of a Pre-Supreme, yet you wounded me—add your Chaotic Body, you’re… the Chaotic Body from the Otherworld!”

Tian Canzi couldn’t help but be startled, his voice filled with shock.

A normal Pre-Supreme attacking him was tantamount to suicide.

Yet this mysterious man had effortlessly wounded him.

Added to that, he was shrouded in chaotic energy.

His identity was obvious.

The Otherworld’s Chaotic Body—the God of War Academy’s God of War—or one of the Six Destroyer Kings!

“It’s really him!”

Ri Shenghu and Yue Shenghu were both chilled to the bone.

Though their realms matched the Chaotic Body’s—both were Pre-Supreme—

they felt that if the Chaotic Body wished to kill them, even one move would be too many.

Earlier, they had looked down on him, believing the Otherworld’s Chaotic Body was a fake or an inferior postnatal Chaotic Body.

Now, they saw how absurd their thoughts had been.

“Hmm?”

Ji Qingyi’s clear, water-like pupils turned toward Jun Xiaoyao, her brows faintly furrowing.

That figure, cloaked in white, always unconsciously reminded her of another silhouette.

“How could such a thing be possible?” Ji Qingyi silently shook her head, convinced it was merely an involuntary illusion.

Many people wore white robes—it wasn’t exclusive to that one.

“He’s…”

Princess Long Ji, Yu Chanjuan, and Yan Rumeng also froze for a moment.

To be honest, they had, for an instant, thought they saw that familiar figure, nearly crying out in joy.

But the hazy chaotic energy and the ghost mask told them otherwise.

It was merely an illusion.

“Attack together!”

Tian Canzi’s expression was more serious than ever.

He had never imagined that facing a Pre-Supreme would bring him such pressure.

Ri Shenghu, Yue Shenghu, and the others felt the same.

Meanwhile, beneath the mask, Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze swept the scene.

He hadn’t expected to encounter these familiar faces.

Yet just now, he had sensed that Princess Long Ji and the others seemed at odds with Tian Canzi’s group.

Jun Xiaoyao couldn’t openly aid them, but he could directly eliminate these nuisances.

“Kill!”

Tian Canzi spat out a killing cry.

He still had ambition.

If he could personally slay this Otherworld’s Chaotic Body, what rewards and glory would he receive?

If they were both at the Supreme realm, Tian Canzi wouldn’t even consider fighting—he’d flee immediately.

But since the opponent was only Pre-Supreme, Tian Canzi believed he still had a chance.

Ri Shenghu and Yue Shenghu also struck simultaneously.

Ji Qingyi hesitated briefly, then joined the attack—she felt a flicker of curiosity.

As for Princess Long Ji’s side—

the three women were slightly dazed.

Because the hazy figure wrapped in chaotic energy truly resembled that one.

Yet even a single Chaotic Body was enough to shatter the absurd thoughts in their hearts.

“Let’s retreat first.”

Yan Rumeng, seeing the two women lost in thought, whispered.

Princess Long Ji and Yu Chanjuan snapped back to reality.

They each cast one last deep look at the white-robed figure, then turned and withdrew, leaving the Purple Gold Ancient City.

Here, the battle began.

Sensing Princess Long Ji and the others had left, Jun Xiaoyao quietly exhaled in relief.

He truly feared these three women, stubborn as they were, might also attack him—it would’ve been inconvenient.

Fortunately, they were intelligent women who knew when to assess the situation.

“Divine Silkworm Seal Heaven Technique!”

Tian Canzi unleashed the supreme divine art of the Divine Silkworm Valley.

Behind him, tens of thousands of cosmic law forces transformed into silken threads, surging toward Jun Xiaoyao like a sky-covering tide.

This secret technique of the Divine Silkworm Valley was said to seal heaven and earth, trapping enemies within a law-formed silkworm cocoon, then refining them.

From this move alone, it was clear Tian Canzi’s mastery of cosmic law forces was extremely refined.

Ri Shenghu and Yue Shenghu also attacked.

As followers of the Immortal Realm’s Chaotic Body, their innate talent and strength were formidable, far surpassing Xing Shenghu.

Now, both unleashed their strongest moves—one swung his fist, radiating brilliance like a blazing sun;

the other wielded a curved blade, unleashing a thousand-zhang-long moon-white blade aura that tore through space.

Ji Qingyi also struck, her jade palm sweeping forth, her power comparable to the two Saint Protectors’.

Jun Xiaoyao, seeing this, formed the Mountain-Lifting Seal.

It was one of the scattered techniques he had mastered from the God of War Codex.

Though not a world-shaking great divine art, in Jun Xiaoyao’s hands, it could turn decay into wonder.

Added to that, the reinforcement of chaotic energy made this already powerful technique utterly supreme.

BOOM!

Jun Xiaoyao’s seal crushed forward, sending Ji Qingyi, Ri Shenghu, and Yue Shenghu flying.

Ji Qingyi fared better—only her face beneath the veil grew slightly pale.

Ri Shenghu and Yue Shenghu both spat blood, bones cracking audibly, instantly grievously wounded.

At this moment, Tian Canzi’s ultimate technique closed in.

Countless law-force threads wove around Jun Xiaoyao, glowing with runes, instantly forming a Law Silkworm Cocoon that enveloped him completely.

“Refine!”

Tian Canzi roared, magical energy surging, divine chains of runes intertwining through the void.

Even law-force Dao flames formed, roasting the Law Silkworm Cocoon.

Clearly, as a seed-level prodigy of the Immortal Realm, Tian Canzi had real substance.

These seed-level figures could dominate their eras for a reason.

“Hah, what of the Chaotic Body?” Tian Canzi’s face showed a faint glimmer of delight.

If he could extract Chaotic blood and Chaotic origin from within—

his chance of evolving into the Ten-Transformation Divine Silkworm would nearly reach one hundred percent!

Yet as Tian Canzi dreamed of this perfect outcome—

RIIIIIP!

A blade of light, radiant enough to illuminate all realms, tore through the Law Silkworm Cocoon, shattering space and piercing through it.

A brilliant, blindingly swift blade of light instantly pierced Tiancanzi’s third eye.

Before he could even react, his Primordial Spirit was already obliterated into nothingness.

The Immortal Realm seed-level figure, Tiancanzi, perished!
