Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 592 Seizing the Gun
Xin Lang has not yet crossed the chasm of becoming a Daoist, so there is already a world of difference between him and Changsheng.

If they were to fight head-on, he would probably be taken down instantly, just like Xin Lingxiao captured the ancient clan's quasi-emperor in one move. Therefore, he could only use the ultimate imperial weapon to make up for the gap.

In truth, Xin Lang did not want to fight Chang Sheng. He did not harbor much hostility towards the human race, and although Xiao Ran's unauthorized actions angered him, Xiao Ran was, after all, his brother-in-law. However, he could not change Xin Lingxiao's decision.

Not to mention, Changsheng's strength far surpasses his, and among all the gods, only Xin Lingxiao can compare to him.

The reason he took the lead this time was twofold: firstly, Xin Lingxiao deliberately sent him to test Changsheng's strength, so as to know himself and his enemy.

Secondly, after Xiao Ran was imprisoned and Xin Lingxiao demonstrated his strength, the attitude of the God Clan towards the Human Clan became more radical, and the moderates represented by Xin Lang naturally lost power.

The reason he was sent to fight against Changsheng was because the God Clan had changed their course, forcing him to become cannon fodder.

Xin Lang took a deep breath, activated the Minghuang Scripture, and raised his divine blood to its limit. He threw the divine spear, and the spear was instantly fully revived. It transformed into a shooting star and fell, shattering the Milky Way and turning the world upside down wherever it went, as if it were a divine punishment to purify the world and reopen the heavens and the earth.

Changsheng, who was targeted by this divine spear, felt as if a god who ruled over everything had appeared before him, issuing a death sentence to him. He seemed to have lost all ability to resist and could only face this inevitable death.

This is the supreme secret technique created by Emperor Ming, the Divine Punishment of Annihilation. Although Xin Lang has already forged his own path, he has not yet broken free from the framework of the Emperor Ming's Scripture. Therefore, using this move in conjunction with this divine spear is a perfect match, allowing its power to be maximized.

The moment Changsheng saw Xinlang, he vaguely guessed at the possible changes within the God Clan. After all, there were far more independent factions within the God Clan who wanted to completely break away from the Human Clan than the Overlord Body lineage.

Firstly, the overall strength of the Divine Race increased after Emperor Ming established the Divine Stabilization Technique, and the inheritance remained stable. Secondly, Emperor Ming had not been gone for very long, and his foundation had not diminished much over time. Thirdly, Xin Lingxiao had boundless potential and truly had the hope of attaining enlightenment.

If the gods could produce two emperors, then their status would naturally not be shaken.

Changsheng already had many grievances against the gods, and the gods had previously restricted Xiao Ran, preventing him from leaving freely. Now, they had even imprisoned Xiao Ran. The fact that he immediately tried to test the waters upon his arrival was enough to enrage Changsheng.

However, he had learned to control his emotions long ago, so he was still able to remain calm at this moment.

Seeing Xin Lang's offensive, Chang Sheng said, "Brother Xin, I'm afraid I have to finish this quickly and can't hold back."

As he spoke, Changsheng leaned forward, countless Taiyin powers condensing into runes in his palms. On his crystal-clear, jade-like palms, countless Dao diagrams of Taiyin laws were engraved. Countless Taiyin immortal lights emanated from every inch of his body, as if he were the embodiment of Taiyin power and the source of all Taiyin laws.

Chang Sheng neither dodged nor evaded. Facing the attack of the divine spear, he grabbed the spear shaft in a flash. Countless runes and Dao diagrams woven from the power of Taiyin scattered from his palm, striking the divine spear one by one, causing it to tremble.

Seeing that the divine spear was intercepted, Xin Lang immediately activated it, unleashing a divine light from the spearhead and condensing the power into a single point to attack Changsheng's altar.

With a powerful breath, Changsheng conjured a Taiyin diagram, which crushed the divine light.

Changsheng actually suppressed the resurrected Supreme Emperor Weapon with his own Taiyin power and even blew away this divine power in one breath, which greatly shocked Xinlang.

But before he could recover his composure, the divine spear was enveloped and covered by the Taiyin Diagram released by Changsheng. Under the stimulation of Taiyin power, his connection with this supreme imperial weapon was directly severed, and the backlash almost shattered his body.

Without the Supreme Imperial Weapon, Xin Lang naturally had no ability to fight against Chang Sheng.

Upon seeing that the divine spear had been suppressed, the cultivators within the divine race immediately activated the Bright Emperor Scripture to recall it. Thus, the divine spear, held in Changsheng's hand, continuously emitted rays of divine light, attempting to break free from Changsheng's control.

Changsheng sneered and immediately activated the "Soldier" Secret Technique, using the most powerful method for controlling magical artifacts in the mortal universe to forcibly control this supreme imperial weapon, forcing it into a deep slumber and severing its connection with the divine race. This greatly alarmed the members of the divine race. Although Changsheng couldn't continuously use the "Soldier" Secret Technique to suppress it, theoretically, as long as he relaxed his guard, the divine spear would return.

However, Changsheng is backed by many powerful human forces. If Changsheng were to leverage their resources, the divine spear might even be permanently suppressed.

Therefore, these divine cultivators immediately activated the protective array targeting Changsheng, and demanded that Changsheng return their inherited treasures.

Chang Sheng ignored them, reversed the spearhead, and pointed the tip at Xin Lang's brow. With a little force, he could pierce Xin Lang's sac and kill him on the spot.

Xin Lang said, "I never imagined that the gap between us would be so big."

Chang Sheng said, "Xin Lingxiao won't come out himself, but instead sends you to test me. What does he want? Doesn't he know what kind of power I have in this state?"

Xin Lang asked, "Will you kill me?"

Chang Sheng said, "No. But I can't guarantee the same for others."

Xin Lang said, "You still plan to enter our ancestral star? You should know that this protective formation is not so easy to deal with."

Changsheng said, "I'd like to see what your gods can do to me."

Looking at Changsheng's fearless demeanor, Xinlang said, "I hope you can really rescue Xiaoran. My sister has been causing trouble every day for the past few years, it's driving me crazy. If you're so kind, then take their whole family with you."

Changsheng said, "If I just let you go like this, you'll probably have a hard time in the God Clan in the future, so you'd better get some injuries."

Xin Lang said, "Is this necessary?"

Chang Sheng smiled and said, "We still have them now."

As he spoke, he transformed his spear into a staff and struck Xinlang, sending him flying into the vast sea of ​​stars, from which he could no longer be seen.

Then, Changsheng, with the Heavenly Mandate in his mouth, shouted: "Haven't you been waiting for me for a long time? Why don't you open the great formation and let me in? I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve."

In an instant, the sound of Daoist chants echoed across the starry sky, shaking the entire universe, and even the distant stars trembled. The divine cultivators within the ancient star, even with the great array blocking their view, were still shaken and dizzy, and it took them a long time to recover.

However, after recovering, these gods were greatly shocked. If Changsheng attacked from the outside with the divine spear, they would have no choice but to defend themselves. Unless Xin Lingxiao intervened, they would be helpless.

But now that Changsheng is actually going to enter their territory, he will be directly suppressed by this great formation and face the contingency plan left by the Ming Emperor.

Is Changsheng simply a master of his craft, or is he just incredibly arrogant and ignorant of his own limitations?
However, the ancestral star is their territory, and they always have the upper hand in internal conflicts, so they created a separate portal in the great formation.

"In that case, please come in."
