Chapter 512: Fated to Become Void Through the Ages

"What a pity…"

After the vague visage of the Master of the Great Thousand Divine Universe, a faint sigh came, as if it contained eons of vicissitudes and boundless majesty.

His voice was calm and unruffled, yet each word was crystal clear, like the tone of the Tiandao, resonating through the sealed Thunder Clan territories and echoing in the hearts of every living being:

"Through countless ages of arduous cultivation, weathering countless tribulations, you finally become the Heavenly Dao Supreme, overlooking the succession of Epochs, ought to be the Sky‑Pillar that guards a realm and bestows blessings upon all living beings."

"Yet you willingly… fell into depravity, allied with the ominous, and gladly became a claw of that Darkness."

"Your eons of arduous cultivation, endless years, are ultimately… nothingness, destined to turn to calamity ash today."

In his words there was no anger, no fervor, only an absolute indifference born of seeing causality and pronouncing fate, unquestionable.

"Heh heh heh…"

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable's body, tinged with Chaotic Divine Thunder, quivered slightly, emitting a low, mocking thunderous laugh.

In his eyes, forged from world‑destroying Lei Dian, flickered a cold light that disregarded everything, valuing only the eternity of power:

"Kings rise, rebels fall; it has always been so. You, the mediocre shackled by so‑called righteousness and guardianship, could never comprehend what truly leads to eternity and transcendence… the supreme power?"

His voice suddenly rose, bearing a fanatical obsession:

"Aside from the supreme power that can dominate all and overturn the rules, any clan honor, any Zhutian righteousness, any mortal welfare… are nothing but delusion!"

"They are laughable shackles that the weak use to console themselves and bind the strong!"

"Mere ant‑like beings, born and dying each day, could ever grasp… the essence and splendor of power?!"

"Further words are futile."

The Master of the Great Thousand Divine Universe's voice suddenly turned cold.

The flowing dark robe moved on its own, without wind.

A supreme edge that surpasses the Zhutian and commands the ages, together with bone‑piercing chill, erupted like a slumbering world‑destroying divine sword suddenly drawn, booming forth!

In an instant it forced back and suppressed the arrogant Lei Dian pressure of Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable!

"Today, the Thunder Clan colludes with the ominous, betrays the Nine Heavens, the evidence is conclusive, the crime unforgivable!"

"It deserves… annihilation!"

The final four words were uttered like a Heavenly Dao Decree; once spoken, the law follows!

The Master of the Great Thousand Divine Universe acted!

There was no earth‑shaking buildup, no convoluted esoteric opening move.

At his level, where the mind reaches, the Tiandao manifests, and offense forms itself!

He simply lifted his right hand, and with a gentle palm pressed toward the opposing Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable, shrouded in Chaotic thunder light.

Boom—boom—boom—!!!

That palm pressed out, the heavens and earth dimmed, ten thousand paths wailed!

It was as if the entire sealed Thunder Clan territory, together with the boundless Eternal Void beyond, violently trembled and twisted under this simple palm!

Where the palm edge passed, the Void was not torn but, like glass crushed by an invisible colossal force, silently crumbled inch by inch, vanishing into the most primal Chaos Qi!

An indescribable, terrifying Dao Rhythm of vastness, antiquity, and desolation spread from the master's palm!

It was not mere energy, but the birth and death of the Great Thousand Divine Universe, the rise and fall of endless civilizations, the flow of the ancient Star River, the operation of Zhutian laws, all condensed and evolved within a single palm!

In the palm, one could faintly see miniature yet strikingly real Chaos Star Rivers being born, expanding, dazzling, then at their brilliant apex moving toward Jiemie and collapse.

Endless sparks of civilization ignited within, spreading like wildfire, building splendid nations and divine dynasties, only to turn to dust and legend in the Time Changhe.

Moreover, an entire, complete Daqian Huan Yu phantom floated at the edge of his palm, with clear reflections of sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and all living beings, as if this palm grasped a truly real ancient universe!

The edge of the palm births and perishes, holding the universe within the hand!

This is the method of the Master of the Great Thousand Divine Universe!

Great opening and closing, returning to simplicity, yet it contains the Supreme Great Power that evolves the Zhutian and shatters all realms!

Facing this terrifying palm that seemed to bear an ancient universe as a weight, Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable's pupils flashed with world‑destroying Lei Dian, and he let out a cold snort like ten thousand thunders silencing together:

"Hmph! Great Void Universe Palm? Child's play! Now behold—Heavenly Dao Penalty, Ten Thousand Thunder Extinction!"

He dared not delay; both hands suddenly rose, as if hoisting the Zhutian Lei Dian paths, commanding thunder across all realms!

"Boom—crack—!!!"

Centered on him, the sealed Void above was instantly engulfed by endless, immensely heavy thunder clouds!

These thunder clouds were not natural; they were the embodiment of the purest Lei Dian Heavenly Dao Law!

Black as ink, rolling like tides, within swirled electric serpents and roaring Lei Dragon, exuding a supreme heavenly might that destroys all and judges all beings!

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable is the Lei Dian Heavenly Dao Supreme!

At this moment, he exerted his full strength, directly invoking the Lei Dian penalty power at the Heavenly Dao level!

"Chaotic Divine Thunder, hear my command!"

"Purple Firmament Heavenly Thunder, be my vanguard!"

"Supreme Imperial Divine Thunder, execute my imperial penalty!"

"Reincarnation Profound Thunder, sever your rebirth!"

With each incantation, within the heavy thunder clouds formed a distinct-colored, shaped, Dao Rhythm‑unique primordial divine thunder, each terrifyingly supreme, coalescing into massive bolts as broad as primeval mountains, dazzling enough to illuminate the ages, tearing the heavens, ignoring space and time, and brazenly slashing toward the Master's Great Void Universe Palm!

Chaotic Divine Thunder, its hue chaotic, contains the primordial destructive force of Open Heaven and Split Earth, capable of reshaping earth, fire, water, and wind!

Purple Firmament Heavenly Thunder, suffused with violet aura, is the orthodox Heavenly Dao penalty thunder, specialized in shattering all laws and eradicating evil!

Supreme Imperial Divine Thunder, golden and noble, bears imperial supreme authority and tyranny, suppressing all dissent!

Reincarnation Profound Thunder, gray and deadly silent, contains the intent of ending Reincarnation, able to erase divine soul marks and cut off rebirth!

Several primordial divine thunders interwove into a cataclysmic thunder waterfall, bearing the Supreme Will of the Heavenly Dao Penalty, colliding thunderously with the Master's palm that encompassed the birth and death of the Great Thousand Divine Universe!

Boom! Roar! Roar! Roar—!!!!

An indescribable terrifying collision erupted in the depths of the Void, raised and almost detached from the world, above the Thunder Clan territory!

There, the concept of Space has already become blurred, and the flow of Time has grown chaotic.

Only the purest, most Primordial Tiandao force is raging wildly in counter‑strikes, annihilation, and recombination!

Light? The brilliance that erupts there surpasses ordinary brightness; it is the dazzling embodiment of law itself!

Sound? The roar that emanates there exceeds the notion of a thunderous noise; it is the wail and roar produced by Tiandao's collision!

Even a few stray threads of battle aftershocks cause the entire Thunder Clan domain below to quake and the mountains to tremble, countless surviving structures turn completely into pulverized dust, and the earth cracks open into a bottomless abyss!

If the two combatants were not both deliberately controlling and dragging the main battlefield into a higher‑dimensional Void, the entire Yong Heng Tian would probably be subjected to unimaginable effects!

Two Dark Shadows, at the heart of that law turbulence, flicker, collide, separate, and collide again at speeds beyond the limits of thought!

Each encounter seems as if a miniature universe is being born and destroyed, a civilizational epic being written and concluded!

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable has taken the power of the Lei Dian Heavenly Dao to its utmost, and with every gesture, ten thousand thunders follow, the Heavenly Dao Penalty is imposed, each strike bearing a terrifying will that enacts divine retribution and annihilates myriad souls.

He seems to have become the embodiment of Lei Dian, the executor of the Heavenly Dao, with endless majesty and unrivaled ferocity!

Yet the Lord of the Great Thousand Divine Universe remains perpetually composed and unhurried, moving with effortless ease.
