Just as cultivators across Penglai Immortal Island were working tirelessly in the Qi Refining Furnace to refine the Chaos Yuanling Pearl and the Xuanwu Army Formation was resisting the world-destroying torrent, a silent shadow, like a leech, had locked onto its target.

In the memories of the remnant soul of the Lava Great Sage, the blurry figure that transmitted information at the critical moment is now quietly moving towards a seemingly stable array node on the main island of Penglai, which actually has a hidden flaw left by his "guidance"!

The shadows, like living things, writhed at the edge of the battlefield where demonic energy and spiritual light intertwined.

Lu Tianchu's eyes, colder than the abyss, pierced through layers of illusions, focusing precisely on an old man in a crimson Daoist robe who was feigning to instruct his disciples to reinforce the array patterns—

Elder Chixiaozi of Yuntai Immortal Island!

Just as Chi Xiaozi quietly flipped his palm, and a twisted demonic pattern was about to imprint itself into the weak point of the array base, dozens of pitch-black "demon-suppressing chains" suddenly burst forth from the shadows beneath his feet without warning!

"Crash!"

The piercing sound of metal scraping against metal echoed through the chaotic corners of the battlefield.

Chains instantly wrapped around his limbs and torso, and the cold demon-suppressing runes "Restrict" and "Bind" shimmered with an eerie light, completely locking away his pure Qi cultivation and the secret passage through which he communicated with the demons!

Chixiaozi stared wide-eyed in terror, trying to break free, letting out a roar that was difficult to understand.

Lu Tianchu's figure seemed to emerge from the darkness, his fingers easily gripping his head.

“Elder Chixiao,” Lu Tianshu’s voice was like a cold wind blowing through withered bones, “the transaction mark in the soul of the Lava Great Saint is very clear.”

"Using the Penglai array's core and the lives of your fellow disciples as bargaining chips to obtain the 'Ten Thousand Years of Flesh and Blood Reincarnation Method'—a life-extending evil technique bestowed upon you by the Fusang demons... What a deep scheme."

The chilling power of soul-searching surged in, accompanied by the twisting chains.

Chi Xiaozi's distorted face froze instantly, his past memories being ruthlessly extracted.

His clandestine dealings with the secret envoys of the Japanese Black Armor rebels, the repeated transmission of core defense node information, and his insatiable desire for that evil art of immortality...

All the filthy and disgusting truths were forcibly activated and projected by Lu Tianshu!

"Aaaaah—you wretched creature!"

Master Xuanzhen, who had just repaired a section of the array base, happened to witness this scene. He was filled with shock and anger, and almost spat out a mouthful of his primordial blood essence.

A roar of grief and indignation exploded among the remaining Penglai cultivators. As they watched the projection of Chixiaozi betraying the ancestral court for the sake of longevity, causing countless fellow disciples to die in vain, their eyes burned with deep-seated hatred!

"Pfft!"

Lu Tianchu showed no mercy, and the demon-suppressing chains suddenly tightened and collapsed!
Under the cold gazes of his fellow Qi Refining disciples, Chi Xiaozi's body and soul, which bore the weight of betrayal and sin, instantly turned to ashes and vanished like dust swallowed by the Netherworld!

The biggest internal threat was completely eliminated at the core of the formation!

Almost at the same time the traitor was executed, high in the sky, the three "Sky-Splitting Guns" that descended from the heavens, carrying runes of the Heavenly Dao and radiating the fluctuations of the laws of destruction, moved!
Bai Qi's clone, suspended before the spatial rift, coldly locked its gaze on the churning, roaring army of rotten serpents below, which were exerting immense pressure on the Xuanwu Mountain-Bearing Formation and the Sea-Suppressing Pillar.

That swamp, like a moving, decaying swamp, was teeming with a terrifying demonic tide of tens of thousands of highly poisonous monsters!
Without any extra movements, Bai Qi's clone simply pointed towards the filthy sea.

“Buzz——!!!”

The space suddenly distorted!

The muzzle of one of the Sky-Splitting Cannons instantly condensed into an indescribable ball of light. It was not just light, but an energy law condensed to its extreme, capable of annihilating all rules! The blood-red veins on the surface of the cannon moved wildly, emitting a suffocating destructive power that scorched the surrounding space, making it creak and groan!
The next moment!
A destructive beam of light, beyond description in color, arrived faster than lightning and before thunder could strike!
It seemed to transcend the barriers of time and space, ignoring the distance on the battlefield, and appeared directly above the core of the Rotten Swamp Serpent Legion!
Then, like a world-destroying guillotine, the beam of light slashed down from the sky and plunged into the churning, dark green, toxic sea!
"Hiss—Pfft!!!"

There was no deafening roar, only a heart-stopping, soft sound, like millions of viscous bubbles bursting at the same time!

In an instant, everything in the area covered by the beam of light "evaporated"!

Tens of thousands of swamp serpents, along with the venomous waves they create, their corrosive breath, and the deadly venomous fog they exude...

Faced with the absolute destructive power of the Sky-Splitting Gun, it was like a dewdrop under the scorching sun!

That filthy and boundless "sea of ​​putrefaction" was directly pierced and vaporized!
Wherever the beam of light passed, the seawater was forcibly torn apart and pushed aside, forming a huge, bottomless vacuum channel. Only charred, glassy marks and wisps of foul-smelling smoke remained on the seabed!

The terrifying threat that had kept the Xuanwu Army busy and eroded the foundation of the Zhenhai Pillar was instantly wiped out by a single shot from the Sky-Splitting Cannon, wiping out nearly a third of its forces!
The remaining swamp serpents hissed in panic, and their offensive crumbled and collapsed instantly!
The ferocious momentum of the demonic tide on the main battlefield was brought to a standstill!
The collapse of the Swamp Serpent Legion instantly tipped the scales of the entire battlefield!

The Abyss Great Sage, who had been hiding in the core of the Demon Cloud and controlling the world-destroying torrent, was now roaring in anger because his tentacles were severely injured by Granny Yu Ji's self-destruction. His huge shadow body fluctuated violently in the surging demonic energy, revealing a fatal gap!

"boom--"

On the Zhenhai ship, Zhang Yuan, who had been gathering his strength like a deep abyss, made his move!

Chaotic true essence surged within his body like a galaxy. In a flash, he appeared at the core of the demonic tide near the wound of the Great Sage of the Abyss's severed limb!

What he held in his hand was not the Dinghai Halberd, but a pair of swords that he had drawn at some unknown time!

The blade, a hazy gray, was like the beginning of chaos, heavy and viscous, containing the domineering power to annihilate all laws.

The dark gold blade collapsed like a star core, its sharpness concealed, gathering the edge of annihilation and return to nothingness!

"cut!"

Zhang Yuan roared and thrust out his twin swords in a scissor-like motion!

The terrifying power of primordial chaos and the unification of all laws erupted completely!
The gray blade energy, carrying a torrent of shattered dark gold light spots, was not aimed at flesh and scales, but at the Abyss Great Sage's "demon body core structure," which was forcibly combined with shadow, lava, and spatial laws!
"Sizzle—snap!!!"

It was as if the heavenly shears had severed the pillars supporting the giant tower!
Wherever the gray and dark gold blades passed, the viscous and tough abyssal demonic body emitted a law-related wail that was even more piercing than the tearing of space!
That massive, chaotic demonic body was forcibly cleaved open at its core, creating a terrifying, continuous chasm!
The rolling lava core, the terrifying "Lava Hell" pulsating like a heart, and the protective shadows and spatial distortion layers surrounding it were forcibly torn apart by the twin blades, exposing its ferocious nature to the scorching battlefield!
A fiery, hellish red light accompanied by a frenzied outflow of destructive energy!
"Roar!"

The Great Sage of the Abyss let out an unprecedented howl of pain and terror, feeling that its core of power was losing protection!
"Black Tortoise—Break the Formation! Break the Evil!"

Yu Wanjun, who had been waiting on the side, roared with his hair and beard standing on end!
The Qin Dynasty's Xuanwu Army Formation, radiating a fierce aura, transformed into a massive, incomparably heavy, dark yellow war hammer, condensed from blood and will!
"Boom!!!"

The army, which had gathered the strength of 50,000 new soldiers, crashed into the huge wound torn open by Zhang Yuan's twin blades like a prehistoric beast released from its dam, heading straight for the exposed core of the lava hell!
The malevolent energy collided violently with the lava!
Countless new soldiers braved the scorching lava currents and the frenzied counterattacks of the abyssal monsters, plunging their swords and spears fiercely into the pulsating core of hell!
"For Qin! Kill—!!"

The Qin army soldiers displayed unprecedented fighting power!
The exposed core, under the repeated impact and strangulation of the army's will and the rage of revenge, was like a mangled body thrown into a meat grinder, completely submerged in the flashing swords and deafening roars, and quickly disintegrated!
The last resistance of the Abyss Great Sage's terrifying clone, along with the primordial laws it attempted to condense, was completely annihilated before the Qin army's lines!

"retreat--"

A mighty voice resounded in the void.

The surging army of demons silently sank into the sea. (End of Chapter)
