Chapter 1623

Soon, Ximen Wudi arrived at the location of Tongtian Peak; he gazed at the towering mountain in the distance, a cruel smile curling on his lips.

"Since you Chaos Xinghai seek death, I'll grant it—let you all join them in the grave!" Ximen Wudi sneered, then strode toward Tongtian Peak.

Boom—boom—boom…

At that moment, a vast, boundless surge of energy erupted from afar, like a flood sweeping across the heavens, shaking the entire Chaos Xinghai and drawing the gaze of billions of cultivators.

Instantly, endless rays of radiant light spread out, engulfing the whole Chaos Xinghai.

A tremendous pressure descended upon every inch of the void in Chaos Xinghai, making all cultivators struggle to breathe.

In that instant, all life within Chaos Xinghai knelt upon the ground, trembling violently.

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh…

The next moment, several streaks of light shot from afar and landed near Tongtian Peak in the blink of an eye.

Upon closer look, the arrivals were none other than several half-god experts of Chaos Xinghai.

Most striking among them was a middle-aged man clad in black robes.

He was broad-shouldered and imposing, with a noble countenance, sharp and deep eyes, and an aura of overwhelming pressure radiating from his body.

This man was none other than the Chaos Domain Lord—Chaos Shi Xian.

"Chaos Zhu Xian Array?" Ximen Wudi frowned slightly, thinking to himself: "This Chaos Domain Lord is stronger than Chaos Fen Xian."

Ximen Wudi met the Chaos Domain Lord's gaze; without a word, he turned and left the Chaos Shi Xian Array.

Though Ximen Wudi had already broken through to the Divine Emperor Realm, he still feared the Chaos Domain Lord—this man's power was far beyond his expectations; even with the full might of the Chaos Lu Shen Spear, he doubted he could prevail, unless he unleashed the spear's ultimate form—the Lu Shen Spear Soul.

But once he used that divine weapon, Ximen Wudi would lose all control over it—he'd have to reforge it, and the cost would be immense.

Moreover, Chaos Xinghai still held several other half-gods; if the commotion grew, more experts would rush in, and trouble would multiply.

"Brother Ximen, why are you alone? Where are the others?" As Ximen Wudi returned alone, Lin Tian, Lin Di, and the others in the Chaos Shi Xian Array immediately surrounded him, asking anxiously.

Ximen Wudi shook his head and sighed: "Alas! The cultivators of Chaos Xinghai have gone mad—they'd rather self-destruct than surrender."

Hearing this, all fell silent. They had indeed failed—Chaos Fen Xian Array was utterly destroyed, and they themselves had become prisoners. For Chaos Xinghai, this was a fatal blow; it would likely plunge into irreversible ruin.

Yet for them, this was ironically good news.

"I know what you're thinking—I won't stop you. I'm leaving now. I hope you all soon shed your slave status and reclaim your former dignity and glory." Ximen Wudi patted their shoulders and turned away.

"Alas…"

Watching Ximen Wudi's retreating figure, Lin Tian and the others let out long, heavy sighs, their hearts weighed down.

Not long after, Ximen Wudi arrived at a desolate region, barren and lifeless.

This was the core of the Chaos Shi Xian Array; normally, only the Master or Deputy Master of the Chaos Sacred Hall had the right to enter.

"Hahaha… I'm back!" Ximen Wudi roared to the heavens, his body radiating thick, bloody demonic energy, as if a demon god had descended.

Ximen Wudi stepped onto the void, standing motionless in midair.

He gazed downward, his eyes cold and terrifying, glowing with crimson light like a demon's, radiating soul-chilling power.

Shhh!

At that moment, two clots of blood mist erupted from below, coalescing into two hazy human forms.

Their bodies twisted grotesquely, faces contorted and horrifying.

Worse still, these figures exuded an utterly evil, peerless aura—as if possessed by true malevolent spirits, dreadfully terrifying.

"The Chaos Tun Tian Jue truly didn't disappoint me—in just a few days, I've reached the peak of the Divine Lord Realm, just half a step from true Half-God status." Ximen Wudi grinned, his eyes gleaming with bloodthirsty crimson, like a ravenous wolf.

The Chaos Tun Tian Jue was a fragmentary sect of the Chaos Divine Demon Art, yet its power was terrifying—rumored to devour the heavens and devour the earth, transforming into Chaos itself, with limitless might.

"Congratulations, Young Master, on ascending to the Divine Lord Realm! From now on, Chaos Xinghai shall be ruled by you—it shall become a Wang Zu power within Chaos Xinghai!" The two blood mist figures knelt in unison, their voices hoarse and low, brimming with reverence.

Ximen Wudi smiled arrogantly: "Enough talk. I'll take you to find the Chaos Zu Long Zhu."

"Your servant obeys!" the two blood mist figures replied respectfully.

Then, Ximen Wudi departed the Chaos Shi Xian Array with the two blood mist figures, speeding rapidly toward the northeast.

…

Meanwhile, across all prefectures of Chaos Xinghai, countless warriors had heard of the Chaos Shi Xian Array's destruction; their moods were utterly dismal.

"That monster Ximen Wudi dared destroy the foundation of our Chaos Xinghai!"

"Damn him!"

"We must tear him into a thousand pieces!"

…

In city after city across Chaos Xinghai, furious roars echoed; every face was etched with hatred and vengeance.

The destruction of the Chaos Shi Xian Array was a thousand times more agonizing than patricide or wife-stealing.

Worse still, the Chaos Fen Xian Array had also been destroyed—causing devastating losses.

After all, the Chaos Fen Xian Array was the most powerful binding technique in all of Chaos Xinghai, its power astonishing.

These binding techniques could only be activated by the current holders of the Chaos Fen Xian Array; once destroyed, they lost their final safeguard.

1382 The entire Chaos Xinghai shall face its end

1382 The entire Chaos Xinghai shall face its end

After the Chaos Fen Xian Array was shattered, the entire Chaos Xinghai would face its end.

Suddenly, whether commoners or exalted Wu Zun and half-gods, all felt the crisis, trembling with fear, hearts in chaos.

Yet none of this mattered to Ximen Wudi—in the instant the Chaos Shi Xian Array collapsed, he tore open space and returned to the Ximen World.

Ximen World, Ximen Palace.

"Master, your disciple has fulfilled his mission—he destroyed the Chaos Shi Xian Array." Ximen Wudi bowed to Ximen Feng, who sat in a chair, eyes closed, meditating.

Ximen Feng opened his eyes, glanced at Ximen Wudi, and smiled: "Well done. You are indeed the disciple I chose."

"Thank you, Master," Ximen Wudi smiled calmly.

"By the way, Master, here is the Primordial Chaos Dragon Pearl—I've already refined it." Saying this, Ximen Wudi pulled out the Primordial Chaos Dragon Pearl and handed it to Ximen Feng.

Ximen Feng took the Primordial Chaos Dragon Pearl and examined it closely; a radiant smile spread across his face: "Good. This Primordial Chaos Dragon Pearl contains vast, pure energy. With your current cultivation, you should be able to push toward the late stage of the Divine Lord Realm."

"Hehe, this time, destroying the Primordial Devouring Immortal Array, my breakthrough to the late stage of the Divine Lord Realm hinges entirely on you, Master. If you lend me a hand, I'll advance smoothly to the late stage of the Divine Lord Realm—then, even if I face a Semi-God, I'm confident I can defeat them," Ximen Wudi said excitedly.

"Don't worry!" Ximen Feng patted Ximen Wudi's shoulder, then pulled out two golden pills and handed them to Ximen Wudi, instructing: "Swallow them!"

Ximen Wudi caught the pills, hesitated slightly, then shoved them into his mouth.

Boom!

The moment the pills entered his stomach, Ximen Wudi felt a searing heat erupt in his dantian, as if a volcano had erupted.

The next instant, a surging, boundless torrent of energy exploded from his dantian, instantly scouring his limbs, bones, organs, and viscera, before converging upon his right arm.

Crack—crack—crack~!

Immediately, the sharp sound of snapping bones rang out—Ximen Wudi's right arm was violently ruptured, drenched in blood.

"Ahh!" The excruciating pain caused Ximen Wudi to let out a shrill scream.

"Endure it!" Seeing Ximen Wudi's condition, Ximen Feng gave a sharp command, pressed both hands onto Ximen Wudi's shoulders, and poured forth a vast, mighty stream of divine power, helping Ximen Wudi stabilize his right arm.

Moments later, Ximen Wudi's right arm regrew.

Undeniably, Ximen Feng was extremely proficient in the Nirvana Reincarnation Scripture—he healed Ximen Wudi's right arm effortlessly, not a single drop of blood spilled.

Such a technique was truly mysterious and unfathomable.

Of course, even more astonishing was that while healing Ximen Wudi's right arm, Ximen Feng also diverted part of his divine awareness into Ximen Wudi's arm, probing his body's condition.

After a moment, Ximen Feng exhaled in relief, thinking to himself: "It seems Ximen Wudi's body, though possessing far-above-average talent, still lacks the conditions for cultivation—but it's barely enough to practice the Nirvana Reincarnation Scripture."

Ximen Wudi originally had mediocre talent and a cold, erratic personality; he possessed zero aptitude for martial cultivation.

Thus, Ximen Feng devised a plan to turn Ximen Wudi into a Martial Aberration.

Now it was clear: Ximen Wudi truly was a Martial Aberration.

For he possessed far-above-average talent, yet could not cultivate the Dao!

This had driven Ximen Wudi into demonic deviation, turning him violent and insane, acting without restraint, utterly disregarding all rules.

"Master, look—this is the Primordial Devouring Immortal Array and the Primordial Burning Immortal Array. Just a hair's breadth away from completely destroying the Star Sea. From now on, no one will dare challenge the authority of our Ximen Clan!"
