From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

The moment this thought arose, both Hong Xuanji and Yang Pan were shaken and unable to control themselves.

Although the world is vast and boundless, and there are countless smaller worlds deep within the earth's core, hiding countless peerless experts, the significance of shattering the vacuum realm cannot be summarized by the word "expert".

Although this realm is on par with the Yang God realm and can be called the strongest, there have been more than 20 Holy Emperors, Dao Venerables, and Great Saints who have achieved the Yang God realm throughout history. The martial arts masters who have shattered the void are truly rare.

Even in the Central World of the Outer Heavens, where the martial arts tradition is well-established, there are not many records of this realm. Not to mention in the Great Thousand World where the tradition has been interrupted, martial arts have declined, and there are only a few human immortals.

This is why Hong Xuanji believed he was on the verge of shattering the vacuum with each step forward, simply because he had no clear understanding of it; ignorance is bliss.

However, Hong Xuanji has now cultivated to the "Flesh and Blood Derivation" realm with the help of the Immortal God King's secret technique. He is no longer as unfamiliar with the power to shatter the vacuum as before. He frowned, recognized the source, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, this is the fist intent of the Immortal God King. Presumably, this fiend has already broken free of its seal and has come here in person, also for the secret treasures within the Nine Abyss Divine Realm."

Although he had obtained the flesh and blood of the Immortal God King, Hong Xuanji knew that the other party clearly wanted to use this method to cultivate him into an obedient subordinate.

Therefore, he had no goodwill towards this god-king, and his words were full of fear and hostility. Yang Pan felt the same way and felt unprecedented anxiety.

Now that he and Hong Xuanji have joined forces, they are confident that they are no match for Yang Shen. Even if Meng Shenji has repaired the Eternal Kingdom, he will have no choice but to retreat when facing them as ruler and minister again.

But even if they were ten times stronger, they would be powerless against a powerful being who could shatter the vacuum level. So what should they do now?

Just then, outside the "Ark of Creation," a faint yet majestic and domineering voice rang out, as if it were the supreme Heavenly Dao, seeking to subdue all sentient beings.

“Yang Pan, Hong Xuanji, the Nine Abyss Divine Realm has fallen into the hands of the Immortal God King. Now he is the greatest scourge of the Great Thousand World. We can only join forces to drive him out.”

As soon as they finished speaking, both of them felt a chill run down their spines, and saw another eternal, indestructible ray of light pierce through the endless turbulence, flying from the far reaches of the void.

That was Meng Shenji, dressed as an ancient Taoist priest in a tall hat and wide belt, with loose sleeves. His aura was contained yet not revealed, but an invisible pressure arose spontaneously, making him unapproachable.

Yang Pan could tell at a glance that this Supreme Master had already survived nine tribulations.

What surprised him most was that Meng Shenji's physical body had actually cultivated to the level of a human immortal, and its martial arts level was extremely amazing, and it was also "derived from flesh and blood".

Hong Xuanji's eyes flashed like lightning, tearing through the void. The intent of the Wheel of Life and Death Fist burst forth from his body, forming a massive Dharma wheel outside the "Ark of Creation," covering an entire area and locking in the primordial energy. He solemnly proclaimed:

"You have already merged the Eternal Realm with your physical body?!"

Meng Shenji calmly said:

"Having survived nine tribulations of lightning, one's primordial spirit is entrusted to nothingness, allowing one to wield the Eternal Kingdom as if it were the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Such a realm is naturally beyond your comprehension."

He turned his head again, and although he was looking at the two of them, his gaze seemed to have crossed the boundless void and reached some unknown and mysterious place, extremely profound.

"While the realm of shattering the vacuum can certainly exert its power and roam freely for hundreds of thousands of years, it lacks the subtle and profound understanding of the Yang God realm, which involves the manipulation of Yin and Yang and the control of the Heavenly Dao. Otherwise, the Primordial Demon Gods would not have been wiped out by the Longevity Emperor."

Although Meng Shenji's cultivation level was not yet at that level, his words still inspired an indescribable sense of conviction in even his adversaries, Hong Xuanji and Yang Pan.

It was as if this person truly spoke the law of heaven, every word and phrase a golden rule, leaving no room for doubt.

This situation made the two of them realize the power of Meng Shenji even more, and they couldn't help but become more and more wary.

Meng Shenji didn't take it to heart and continued:

"The 'Void' had already entered the Longevity Secret Realm of the Nine Abyss Divine Domain tens of thousands of years ago, attempting to break through its realm here and truly shatter the vacuum."

"Using this information, I persuaded the Shang Emperor and the Yin Emperor to go to the Nine Abyss Divine Realm. The Qi King of the Outer Heavens, Xu Wuyi, and that person from the East Sea also challenged them to a duel in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm."
"The reason why the Immortal God King made a move was probably because of these two people. Although he has the realm of shattering the vacuum, it is not something that can be accomplished in a short time to subdue so many powerful people."

Upon hearing this, Yang Pan's eyes flickered. He then understood that the force of the punch must symbolize that the Immortal God King was fighting against these powerful figures.

However, he felt this wasn't entirely bad news. If all these people died at the hands of the Immortal God King, who in the Great Thousand Worlds could stop him besides Meng Shenji?
Of course, Yang Pan also knew that all of this was predicated on successfully killing or expelling the Immortal God King.

If this demon god were to rule the world again, and the vast world were to return to the era of ancient gods, then humans like him would surely have nowhere to go, let alone become some eternal protagonist.

So Yang Pan spoke up:

"Does the Dream Cult Master mean that we should join forces and take advantage of the chaos?"

Although they now possess two Kings of Divine Artifacts and the Dream God Machine has reached an unfathomable level, they still have no chance of winning against a supreme expert who has shattered the vacuum.

Yang Pan's words actually meant that he wanted Meng Shenji to reveal more of his trump cards. Most Dao lineages in the Great Thousand Worlds were interrupted by the changing times, but the Supreme Dao was an exception.

The fact that Meng Shenji survived nine tribulations of lightning in just three hundred years, nearly reaching the realm of Yang God, is a testament to this.

Meng Shenji shook his head:
"Yang Pan, you don't need to test me like this. Since I said I wanted to cooperate, I meant it."

"You, Yang Pan, want to be the eternal protagonist of the universe. Hong Xuanji's temperament is even better. He directly considers himself the God King of the Heavens. He is considered to have the first-class temperament and spirit in this world, but he is not a true Yang God material."

"Given your aptitudes, the only way for you two to fulfill your lifelong ambition is to obtain a Yang God's divine thought and then rely on the legacy of the Creation Daoist, which would give you a slim chance."

"It just so happens that there is such a thought left by Pan Huang in the Central World. They also have an irreconcilable conflict with the Immortal God King. We can take this opportunity to lure the leaders of Pan Xing and others here and seize this item again."

Upon hearing the suggestion, Yang Pan immediately fell silent in thought.

Over the years, he has always regarded the Central World as a major threat and has been actively preparing for war. However, Yang Pan is not very clear about how much power the other side actually has. Is it right to invite a wolf into the house?
Moreover, Yang Pan has another hidden worry.

It seems that Meng Shenji's physical body in this life comes from a large family in the Central World. Could this person be colluding with Pan Xinglai to destroy the Great Qian Dynasty?
Meng Shenji then said:
"Xu Wuyi is the chosen one of the Central World and the second strongest fighter after the leader Xu Yi. It is impossible for Xu Yi not to come to his rescue. After these two leave, the Outer Heaven will be open to all of us."

"Yang Pan, do you not even have the guts to snatch chestnuts from the fire?"

Hong Xuanji suddenly opened his eyes and said directly:
"Your Majesty, this is a feasible suggestion."

After hearing Hong Xuanji's words, Yang Pan no longer hesitated and simply nodded. The two groups then turned around and headed straight for Tianwaitian.

However, Meng Shenji, Yang Pan, and Hong Xuanji all misjudged many things. First of all, the Immortal God King did not attack alone; he was accompanied by three other Primordial God Kings.

Secondly, although the Immortal God King unleashed the power to shatter the vacuum, the situation in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm was by no means one-sided.

The Immortal God King's attack just now had shaken the very foundation of the Nine Abyss Divine Realm.

If the previous Nine Abyss Divine Realm was an inverted pyramid extending downwards with a tight structure, then the current Nine Abyss Divine Realm is a world pieced together from two funnels, one above the other.

The connection between the two funnels is the black hole created by the Immortal God King's punch. All nine realms are tilting and deflecting towards this point, with billions of tons of matter being thrown into it and completely annihilated.

The second and fourth layers, which were closest to each other, were annihilated in an instant and completely swallowed by the black hole. The first and fifth layers also collapsed by more than half, and the remaining parts continued to stretch and twist.

The Yuan Ice Layer where Xu Xing and the others were located was also tilted more than sixty degrees toward the black hole. In the Great Thousand World, this would be considered a true cataclysmic change!
Even a Nine Tribulation Ghost Immortal or a Human Immortal with countless transformations ultimately depends on the void for existence and cannot remain unaffected.

Fortunately, the three great god-kings had experienced the glory of this realm before, and as demon gods formed from innate energy, they naturally had a certain resistance to the changes in heaven and earth; their figures only swayed slightly.

Xu Xing, however, went a step further than them.

His essence, energy, and spirit have long since formed their own realm, waiting only for the complete creation of heaven and earth to evolve into a vast universe. He is truly untouched by any law, completely ignoring all these changes.

Although Xu Xing was also shocked by the true power of the Immortal God King, he seized the opportunity and moved to use the same move as before.

With five fingers manipulating the universe, drawing upon the long river of history, and then clenching into a fist, he strikes the most arrogant, unrestrained, and domineering Great Destroyer God King!

The already damaged Yuan Ice layer finally collapsed completely, and countless Yuan Ice fragments shattered into dust that was invisible to the naked eye. However, instead of falling into the black hole of the third layer, they were propelled by Xu Xing's punch and crashed into the Great Annihilation God King!
Those who reach the level of the Great Annihilation God King can perceive things with terrifying precision using only their divine will.

The most minute details in the flow of cosmic light, the trajectories of all things in the void, everything tangible and intangible, formless and without form, are all within the grasp of this god-king, nothing is too small, nothing is too small, everything is revealed.

If placed in the outer reaches of the stars, his observation range would be measured in light-years. Without such perception, even the Great Annihilation God King would be unable to cope with battles at this level.

This time, however, no matter how the Great Annihilation God King's divine will extended, it could not escape Xu Xing's physical body. He even felt that Xu Xing's punch was like dragging the entire universe and smashing it towards him with unstoppable force!

No, not like.

This is absolutely true!
The Great Annihilation God King had realized that if he couldn't withstand this punch, he would perish completely today.

But he remained unchanged in his nature, the flames around him burning even more intensely, his arms outstretched, his true energy spreading out, trying to lock Xu Xing's physical body!
At that moment, Xu Xing twisted his wrist, and the endless white powder wrapped around his fist accumulated and swirled, layer upon layer, as if it were endless. The force of his fist also condensed and concentrated towards the center, eventually forming a crystal clear pure white star!

As soon as this star appeared, just like the Immortal God King had done, it completely pierced through the Yuan Ice Layer, causing the void to collapse, all things to disintegrate, and everything to move towards utter destruction.

In the Buddhist system of the last century, time was not a long river, but was composed of countless discontinuous parts. The saying "there are ninety moments in a single thought, and nine hundred births and deaths in a single moment" illustrates this principle.

Units smaller than a moment are called the Six Virtues, and those even smaller are called Emptiness. The timing of Xu Xing's punch is even more empty than Emptiness, and even clearer than emptiness, leaving the Great Destruction God King no room to react.

It can be said that before Xu Xing could fully concentrate his fist intent and before he could throw a punch, the Great Destroyer God King had already been hit.

With a deafening roar, this god-king, who had traversed the ancient times, was invincible, and enslaved all races to ascend to the throne, was completely shattered. His physical body and soul were crushed into dust, leaving not a trace behind!
Xu Xing's body opened up, completely absorbing and refining the essence of the Great Destroyer God King. The void around him suddenly trembled incessantly, as if he no longer existed in this world, standing alone and detached from it.

The reason he chose the Great Destruction God King as his target was because he saw that this God King had almost no personal feelings to speak of, and that his actions were all driven by the purest instincts.

In other words, this god-king's only wish is to fulfill the duties and tasks bestowed upon him by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. He is extremely close to truly merging with the Dao and will never resort to any other means other than a direct confrontation.

It was precisely because of this that Xu Xing completed all his tactical plans and took the most solid step towards shattering the vacuum!
The Death God King and the Gou Li God King could clearly see that within three feet of each person, one after another, bright spots of light like stars gradually emerged, and a strong and profound life force spread out.

They all knew very well that this was a sign of shattering the vacuum—condensing the ninety-nine orifices outside the body.

However, since ancient times, this step has always required absorbing the power of the vast world for one's own use, so that after being shattered inside and out, one can reunite the true body and reach a state of being one with heaven and earth and the universe, operating the power of the primordial energy.

This is why very few powerful figures in later generations were able to achieve the ability to shatter the vacuum. Apart from the Five Great God Kings, who are themselves the embodiment of the origin of heaven and earth, it is extremely difficult to resonate and become one with the universe.

However, Xu Xing did not take this path at all. Instead, he returned to the Great Yi and merged his Qi with the Great Beginning. He opened up ninety-nine orifices in his physical body, became the universe with his body, and carried the boundless void and the brilliant starry river. He cultivated the supreme true body of self and truly shattered all obstacles!
The two god-kings were both deeply shocked by this scene and reacted accordingly.

The God King of Death even sacrificed his true form, merging it into the Hell Array to strengthen the sealing power. The already collapsed Yuan Ice layer was frozen by him, frozen in that instant of shattering.

This world is like a piece of colorful glass and jade, which was broken and then pieced back together. The cracks and gaps are filled with shimmering light, making it indescribably beautiful.

There are also 480 million hells that contain Mount Sumeru as small as a mustard seed. When Xu Xing is inside one of them, he is completely surrounded. But no matter how fiercely the dark flames burn, they can never get within three feet of him.

Gou Li, the God King, took out a crystal-clear bead and struck Xu Xing with his palm again. The bead spun around and spread out layers of true realms, including towering mountains and endless oceans.

It is evident that countless strange beasts chase the wind and lightning, their bloodthirsty and ferocious auras intertwined, their desolate and wild might shaking heaven and earth, truly a boundless realm of beasts!
Xu Xing suddenly looked up, his eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body exuded an extremely arrogant aura, as if he wanted to burn all the heavens and myriad worlds and make everything disappear!

This is precisely the original power of the Great Annihilation God King!

Without Xu Xing making a move, a ferocious giant ape with bristling fur and burning blood flames suddenly appeared out of thin air in the scenic landscape.

With a single stride, the giant ape shattered mountains and rivers. With a gaping maw, it swallowed the "Mountain and Sea Pearl" whole. Its already intense vitality swelled to an unparalleled and terrifying degree.

Xu Xing's true form flickered, transforming into countless beings that spread to every corner of this world. Then, these numerous Xu Xings, along with the giant ape in the center, all shouted in unison:
"broken!"

The moment the word "shatter" was uttered, the entire world could no longer remain frozen. The two God-Kings, along with Xu Xing himself, were utterly shattered into nothingness from the inside out!
While pursuing the Immortal God-King of Nothingness on the first level, he suddenly turned around and saw that the seventh level had completely disappeared, leaving only a dazzling point of light, incomparably brilliant, swirling nebula like a funnel.

Although it was only a fleeting moment, it felt like countless years had passed. The nebula expanded to its limit, then completely collapsed and shrank. All the prosperity and splendor became a tiny dot, no bigger than a mustard seed.

Xu Xing stepped out with a relaxed demeanor. His aura was not strong, but he possessed an unparalleled presence, as if everything else had become an illusion and only he was real.

The vacuum is shattered, and thus success is achieved! (End of Chapter)
