Daqin Zhentiansi

This arrow carries a sense of desolation and decay, as if it could drain all life!
All the pustules and eyeballs of the Cursed Poison Master burst due to extreme fear!
It sensed death!
Pure, irresistible death descends!

It screamed as it burned its primordial demonic blood, condensing layer upon layer of filthy pus and blood shields!

"Puff puff!"

The gray-white arrows pierced the butter like red-hot daggers.

Those foul shields, which were strong enough to withstand the bombardment of ordinary Venerables' supernatural powers, were utterly fragile in the face of arrows containing the Law of Withering!
The arrow silently pierced the center of the Poison Master's enormous head.

In an instant, the enormous, festering, rotting head, like a piece of rotten wood that had been drained of all its moisture, shriveled, withered, and weathered away at an alarming speed!
Its desperate scream, like a torn rag, came to an abrupt end.

In less than a breath, only a patch of grayish-white dust remained on the spot, which was completely swept away by the chaotic air currents of the battlefield.

The second arrow struck down the Primordial Curse Poison Master!

Behind Zhang Yuan, the Shadow Blade Demon General's struggles had become extremely weak.

The blood-red flowers of the Soul-Devouring Vine had completely covered the head area formed by its shadow, greedily sucking at it.

With a final, faint howl, Shadow Blade Demon General's body completely disintegrated, transforming into a pure stream of shadow energy, which was then completely devoured by the demonic vines.

The barbs on the demonic vine gleamed with a dark light, making it seem even more ferocious.

In the blink of an eye, all three Hongmeng Realm Heavenly Demon Generals perished at Zhang Yuan's hands!

Devastating and utterly domineering!
From the direction of Rock Camp, the soldiers' roars became even more ferocious!

Commander Yue Zhenshan's eyes were bloodshot, and his roar overwhelmed the roar of the battlefield: "Fire General's divine might! Rock-solid Camp! Pierce through mountains and rivers—!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Seeing their commander's divine might, the three thousand fierce soldiers felt their blood boil like a volcano.

They gripped the Demon-Slaying Giant Cone tightly, braving the terrifying gravitational field brought by the Chaos Xuan Turtle phantom, and launched a fierce counterattack!

The heavy giant cones, infused with their immense true essence, burst forth with a dazzling, demon-slaying azure light at their tips, like three thousand divine hammers capable of splitting mountains and shattering the earth, fiercely striking the demonic tide suppressed by the gravitational field!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

The muffled sounds of flesh and carapace being pierced and torn together formed a murky symphony of death!

The warriors of the Rock Camp were fearless and fought in groups of three, back to back, forming small assault formations. Each thrust of the giant cone carried the power to split mountains and shatter rocks, easily piercing, throwing, and shattering the low-level monsters that blocked their way!
The azure demon-slaying runes on the tip of the cone flickered like the fangs of death, each strike exploding into a cloud of filthy sap and bone fragments.

Even when powerful bone-blade demons or highly venomous worms occasionally break through the cone formation, the warriors' standard rune armor can withstand the impact with a heavy hum.

"Break through them! Break through them!"

Yue Zhenshan was covered in blood, looking like a mad tiger. His giant cone had turned into a blurry blue light, and every swing brought a bloody storm.

The entire Rock Camp was like a huge, precise, and high-speed grinding millstone, grinding a path of flesh and blood through the demonic tide!

Just as this clash of iron and blood reached its climax!
"Om-!"

"Om-!"

"Om-!"

On the outskirts of Yunhe Ridge, the few abandoned altar nodes that Zhang Yuan had risked igniting earlier and which were now swaying weakly seemed to be under some kind of strong call, and suddenly shone brightly!

It was no longer a faint spark, but like a star that had been dormant for eternity being suddenly awakened!

The pure, scorching aura of the Heavenly Dao, carrying the ancient will of the primordial barrier, swept out like golden ripples in an instant!

This aura resonated wonderfully with the immense will of the three thousand soldiers of the Rock Camp to "fight to the death and never retreat" and "build a Great Wall with their flesh and blood"!

The blood-stained armor on the warriors' bodies, the blood-dripping giant cones in their hands, and even the surge of blood and qi caused by each fierce battle, all seemed to transform into invisible fuses!

"Zheng—!"

A dazzling golden beam of light suddenly shot into the sky from the nearest altar node!

Then came the second, the third...

Several beams of light pierced through the chaotic demonic clouds, like an unyielding spine, tearing through the murky sky!
Even more astonishing is that these beams of light are not isolated!

They resonated with each other, their energy flowing, and in an instant, they formed the prototype of a huge golden network covering a large part of the battlefield!
Although thin and unstable, it is incredibly resilient!
Wherever the golden light swept across, the churning demonic energy, like ice and snow being doused with boiling water, emitted a sizzling sound and quickly melted away!
The monsters seemed to be scorched by invisible flames, letting out painful howls, and their momentum of charge came to a halt!
"Resonance with the Heavenly Dao! The Barrier Regains Its Radiance?!"

A hundred miles away.

Inside a crumbling, abandoned fortress on the edge of Blackwind Rift Valley.

Several cultivators who had survived, resembling savages, suddenly looked up.

Feeling the faint yet incredibly clear pure Heavenly Dao fluctuations piercing through the chaotic storm, the strange phenomenon of the golden pillar of light, and the fierce fighting spirit of the Rock Camp contained within them, they were all struck as if by lightning, and then their eyes burst forth with unbelievable ecstasy and light!

"It's reinforcements! It's real reinforcements! They're launching a counterattack! They're setting fire to the fortress!" someone shouted hoarsely, their voice trembling with tears.

"Yunhe Ridge... Yunhe Ridge hasn't fallen! They're fighting! Brothers, those who can still move, put every ounce of your strength into the array base! Respond to them! Even if you can only make a slight fluctuation!"

At another heavily besieged stronghold, the surviving commander, covered in wounds, struggled to rush toward the almost extinguished core of the array, burning his last bit of divine soul essence and pouring it into it, trying to respond to that distant resonance!
"Roar! Ro ...

Deep within the demonic tide, the suppressed rage finally erupted completely!
That was no longer the shriek of a low-level demon, but a terrifying roar originating from the core of the chaotic vortex, like billions of stars collapsing and being destroyed at the same time!
The entire shattered battlefield was shaking violently, and spatial rifts spread like a spider web!

Several terrifying auras, far exceeding those before, suddenly awakened and locked onto the battlefield!
That was a true "Heart-Eating Demon Lord" level existence, a deep abyss overlord comparable to a late-stage Venerable!

They were utterly enraged by the rekindling of the Heavenly Dao Network!

The enormous shadow twisted and took shape deep within the demonic clouds. The mere wisp of its oppressive power caused the low-level demons hundreds of feet in front of the Rock Camp to instantly explode and turn into blood mist!
The golden Heavenly Dao Network swayed violently under the increasingly violent impact of magical energy, its light flickering uncertainly, as if it would be torn apart again at any moment!

"Fire General!" Lei Zhen, in the Blood Millstone camp, witnessed this scene through telepathic communication. He was horrified and almost rushed out of the camp to provide assistance, but was forcibly suppressed by Zhang Yuan's icy divine sense across endless space: "Guard the camp! The time is not yet ripe!"

Zhang Yuan was at the eye of the storm, his black Daoist robe fluttering wildly in the turbulent energy currents. He clearly sensed the terrifying auras of the awakened demon lords and saw the precarious state of the Heavenly Dao Network.

But what burned in his eyes was not fear, but an icy fighting spirit and a hint of... madness!
"Now!"

Zhang Yuan suddenly looked up, and the God-Slaying Bow was in his hands again!

He didn't aim at any of the demon lords that were about to reveal themselves, but instead pointed his bow at the deepest part of the demonic tide, at the point where the chaotic vortex energy converged and the demon lord's will was most powerful!
There, a colossal energy core, churning with the essence of destruction, like the eye of an abyss, is forming!
"Rockrock Battalion! Heed my command!"

Zhang Yuan's voice was like a thunderclap from the heavens, piercing through all the roars and howls on the battlefield, and clearly imprinted on the soul of every soldier in the Rock Camp!
"Chaos Returns to its Origin—A Cone Points to the Abyss!!!"

The meaning of this order was earth-shattering! It was no longer about holding the line, no longer about breaking through, but about directing the entire army's sharpness, the will and strength of three thousand soldiers, toward that deadly target that symbolized the core of the abyss!

"Roar—!!! Pointing a cone into the abyss! Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

Yue Zhenshan was the first to react, letting out a roar that shattered the clouds!
The three thousand soldiers of the Rocky Camp roared in unison, like torches of their souls being ignited!

The gravitational field beneath their feet suddenly contracted and condensed, no longer spreading and suppressing, but flowing back wildly back to the military formation itself!
The enormous phantom of the Chaos Tortoise let out a roar that shook the galaxy, transforming into a stream of condensed, dark yellow light that merged into the charging arrow of the entire army formation!
On the three thousand giant demon-slaying cones, the dark blue demon-slaying runes instantly blazed to their brightest, perfectly merging with the warriors' burning fighting spirit, blood, and true essence!
The entire Rock Camp transformed into an unprecedented, colossal cone wreathed in primordial divine light and demon-slaying thunder!

"boom--!!!"

The giant cone moved!

Ignoring the billions of demons blocking their way, and ignoring the oppressive aura of the impending arrival of those terrifying demon lords!

With a resolute and all-or-nothing attitude, guided by Zhang Yuan's God-Slaying Bow, and supported by the faint but all-out will of countless remnant soldiers in the rear, and with the weak protection and directional guidance provided by the newly constructed Heavenly Dao Network, it tore through space and crashed headlong into the core of the Abyss Demon Eye!
At the end of the goal lies that mass, brimming with destruction and representing the source of the abyss's will—

Chaos Eye!

The bowstring for slaying gods is fully drawn; the arrow of destruction is about to be released!

The giant cone's sharp edge is unstoppable wherever it points!
The battlefield was ignited at this moment! The climax soared to the heavens!
"Roar—!!! Pointing a cone into the abyss! Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

Yue Zhenshan's roar was like a chaotic thunderclap, and the sound wave briefly overwhelmed the howls of the billions of demons!
The three thousand warriors of the Rock Camp no longer displayed any defensive posture; they became one with their armor, their spears pointing in unison!
The colossal cone, embodying the will of the entire army and the power of the Chaos Tortoise, was unleashed with ferocity, guided by Zhang Yuan's God-Slaying Bow!

This is no longer about chiseling through, but about nailing through the very source!

"Boom—!!!"

The giant cone crashes into the demonic tide!

Ahead, whether it was the acid barrier of the Corrosive Poison Lizard Demon, the bone blade jungle of the Bone-Eating Demon, or even several lesser Primordial Beasts that had just manifested half of their bodies, all shattered and disintegrated instantly like fragile glass under the impact of this combination of three thousand iron-blooded wills, the power of the Chaotic Rock, and the Primordial Xuan Turtle Divine Soul!
The filthy demonic blood and shattered carapace fragments were completely pulverized in the energy storm stirred up by the cone, plowing out a crimson passage hundreds of feet wide, paved with pure annihilation and destruction!

"Ignite the dormant fighting spirit!"

Zhang Yuan's divine sense surged, penetrating the entire battlefield!

The dark gold dragon-patterned arrow he shot at the Abyss Demon Eye, which contained most of his true essence, the immense power of fifteen Hong, and the will of the Great Qin Heavenly Might, did not explode the moment it touched the churning destructive energy around the Demon Eye. Instead, it was like a spark thrown into boiling oil!

"Om-!"

"Om-!"

"Om-!"

Outside Yunhe Ridge, the altar nodes that had been forcibly ignited and were on the verge of extinction suddenly burst forth with unprecedentedly brilliant golden light!
The golden light was not gentle, but carried the iron-blooded sharpness of battlefield combat, like an indomitable beacon, piercing the filthy sky!
This light was like the most intense signal!

A response from all directions, like a prairie fire!
At the edge of the Black Wind Rift Valley, inside that crumbling fortress, the few remaining cultivators, their eyes bloodshot with rage, roared as they poured their last strength, even burning their very soul essence, into the broken array base!
A faint yet incredibly concentrated beam of crimson light, imbued with a resolute will to die, like an indomitable javelin, echoed the golden light of the altar, traversed the chaotic storm, and hurtled towards the battlefield where Zhang Yuan was!

In another dilapidated camp, surrounded and with only a few dozen men remaining, the battered commander, covered in blood, cleaved through the onrushing demonic shadows with a single slash, then lunged at the almost rock-solid core of the formation, pressing his forehead against it, roaring, "My name is Zhou Zhen! The Primordial Barrier stands forever! Aid my comrades—!"

A faint but powerful light of will, imbued with the scent of rust and gunpowder, shot into the sky!

Further away, on the vast scorched earth beyond the pass, lie countless ancient star-gazing platforms, demon-suppressing steles, and boundary beacon tower ruins, eroded by time, long since collapsed, and buried beneath demonic moss...

At this moment, it was as if I was awakened by the raging fire of the Heavenly Dao!
Amidst the broken walls and ruins, the remaining runes flickered like starlight, faint rays of the vast and ancient Dao light emanating from different eras and schools of thought—

It possesses the lingering aura of sword energy as sharp as frost, the divine radiance of earth as solid as the ground, the power of stars that pierce through the void, and the righteous energy that purifies filth...

Thousands of threads converge into a trickle, piercing through the barriers of time and space, crossing shattered stars, ignoring the surging demonic tide, like ten thousand rivers flowing into the sea, precisely merging into that colossal black cone transformed from the rock camp, merging into Zhang Yuan's towering figure like a solitary peak!

"How can we say we have no clothes! We share the same robes with you!"

The ancient war song seemed to come from the source of the long river of time.

The sharpness of the giant cone, enhanced by countless wills, is imbued with an eternal color!
Its power has already surpassed the boundaries of the primordial chaos and is approaching the very essence of creation!

"Awooo—!!!"

The Abyss Demon Eye has gone completely berserk!

The several Heart-Eating Demon Lords could no longer tolerate the provocation of these ants. They tore through the demonic clouds and descended fiercely!

A moving mountain shaped like a knife blade pierced with bones!

One is a giant eyeball flowing with lava and deadly poison!

One is a twisted vortex that is formless and intangible, yet can stir up storms of the soul!

Their oppressive power is enough to crush stars!

"kill!"

The chaotic fire in Zhang Yuan's eyes burned to its extreme!
He discarded his bow!
It's not that it's not being used, but rather that the speed has exceeded the limit!
"Om-!"

A dark gold battle spear, its entire body wrapped in chaotic lightning and profound divine patterns, its tip emitting annihilating starlight, instantly appeared in his palm!

With spear in hand, we charge forward without hesitation! (End of Chapter)
