"good chance."

Just as Yang Qi shattered the Heavenly Seal and the Chain of Curses with a single punch, Zhu Chen also moved.

He moved with lightning speed, instantly transforming into a streak of light and rushing straight towards Yunxi.

"Stop him quickly!"

The two Celestial Race Venerables who were holding Yunxi hostage changed their expressions drastically.

The two hurriedly activated their magical techniques. One of them unleashed lightning from his palm, while the other quickly summoned a bone shield to protect himself.

"Go away!"

Zhu Chen let out a cold shout, and his arm was instantly covered with a layer of fine blue dragon scales. His five fingers formed claws, carrying a terrifying sharpness that could tear through the void, and he grabbed out.

"—Pfft!"

The seemingly violent lightning and bone shield were like waste paper in front of the true dragon claw, and were directly pierced through.

Afterwards, Zhu Chen's claw strikes continued unabated, piercing through the chests of two more Venerables!

"--boom!"

A terrifying force then erupted!

The light in the eyes of the two Venerable Ones dimmed instantly, they coughed up blood, and fell from the sky.

"Brother Yang Qi, I'll rescue the people first. You cover my retreat. Leave immediately after it's done, and don't linger!"

Zhu Chen flew to Yun Xi and, before she could speak, grabbed her waist. At the same time, his phoenix wings flapped violently, and his body instantly transformed into a long, crimson-gold rainbow, flying away from Tianren City at top speed.

"Stop him!"

"Don't let that thief get away!"

Upon seeing this, the surrounding Celestial Clan cultivators gradually recovered from the shock brought by Yang Qi.

Dozens of figures immediately took to the air, their various magical techniques gleaming, and bombarded Zhu Chen in an overwhelming manner, attempting to intercept him.

"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

Zhu Chen held Yun Xi's slender waist with his left arm, and with his right hand, he slashed horizontally through the air with his fingers like a sword.

In an instant, an unparalleled sword intent powerful enough to cleave the void surged forth!
The dozen or so Celestial Race Venerables at the forefront didn't even have time to react before they were shredded into pieces by this sharp sword energy, their precious techniques turning into nothingness along with them!

But in the next second.

Three more Divine Fire Realm cultivators and one True One Realm cultivator arrived in a flash and stopped Zhu Chen.

"Leave them all to me!"

To avoid any unforeseen complications, the True One Realm cultivator decisively summoned a precious bell shimmering with brilliant light.

"You think you can keep me here?"

Faced with this desperate situation, a ruthless glint flashed in Zhu Chen's eyes.

Without hesitation, he summoned the eerie Soul Banner!
Then he quickly flipped his hands, forming a series of complex hand seals.

"--melt!"

With a soft shout from Zhu Chen.

Nearly a hundred distorted and pained faces suddenly appeared on the soul banner.

These souls were all from the cultivators he had killed before.

Zhu Chen activated the Soul Fusion Technique, directly sacrificing these souls along with their life's cultivation to himself!
"--boom!"

A violent aura spread out.

Zhu Chen's aura surged like a volcanic eruption, instantly breaking through the barrier of the Venerable Realm and forcibly stepping into the Divine Realm!
Although the divine fire had not been truly ignited and the realm was somewhat unstable, the oppressive aura that erupted in that instant still caused the faces of the Celestial Race cultivators who were blocking the way to change drastically.

"cut!"

Using this surge of power, Zhu Chen once again unleashed the Grass Sword Technique.

This time, the sword light he unleashed was more refined and more powerful than before!
The three Divine Fire Realm cultivators fought with all their might, but their magical techniques and treasures shattered one after another under his dazzling sword light. As the sword light swept past, the three froze, then a line of blood appeared between their brows, and their bodies silently split in two, their souls and spirits annihilated!

Only the True One Realm cultivator managed to block the sword strike.

"Let's see how many more lives you have left to stop me!"

Zhu Chen knew that time was of the essence and that he had to open the breach as quickly as possible. So, with a thought, he decisively opened his own cosmic cave.

In an instant, hundreds of various magical artifacts were scattered out of him as if they were free.

Knives, swords, mirrors, seals, pagodas... everything is available.

These treasures were all obtained through his previous murders and robberies.

Although their rank is not high, their quantity is astonishing.

"burst!"

Without hesitation, Zhu Chen immediately activated the core runes inside all the treasures with his divine sense.

"—BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"

A series of earth-shattering explosions suddenly erupted!
Hundreds of magical artifacts self-destructed simultaneously, creating an energy turbulence that swept across the entire airspace ahead like an apocalyptic storm!
The light was blinding, the sound deafening, and the terrifying energy shockwave sent the Celestial Race cultivators who tried to surround them flying in droves.

Some with weaker cultivation levels were directly reduced to ashes in the explosion.

Although the True One Realm cultivator survived by sheer luck thanks to the treasure bell, he also suffered considerable injuries.

He never expected Zhu Chen to be so crazy, detonating hundreds of magical artifacts in one go.

……

"Quickly stop him! We absolutely cannot let him escape from Celestial City."

Seeing that Zhu Chen was trying to escape with Yun Xi, Qi Tuo immediately chased after the direction Zhu Chen had left in.

"You dare to be distracted while fighting me?"

However, Yang Qi seized this momentary opening, his figure blurred, and he appeared directly in front of him, delivering a punch!
"No!"

Qi Tuo only had time to let out a desperate roar before his protective divine light shattered inch by inch under Yang Qi's fist force.

"--boom!"

The blood mist exploded!

This Celestial God Realm ancestor of the Celestial Race had his physical body shattered by Yang Qi's punch, and his soul was also completely obliterated by the incomparably domineering Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Force!

"Qi Tuo!"

Qixia tried to rush forward to save him, but Yang Qi slapped her in the chest with his palm, sending her flying backward like a broken sack, blood splattering in the air, her life force instantly waning.

Meanwhile, Zhu Chen had already seized the passage he had blasted open with countless magical artifacts and flew with Yun Xi to the edge of the Celestial City.

However, just as he was about to rush out of the Celestial City's territory, an aged voice suddenly rang in his ears:

"Young man, is the Heavenly City a place you can come and go as you please?"

The moment that voice rang out, an indescribable, terrifying pressure suddenly descended, as if the entire sky had collapsed, completely freezing the space around Zhu Chen!
Zhu Chen was forced to stop.

Looking up, one could see an old man in a gray robe with two horns on his head who had appeared on the tall crenellations of the city wall.

The old man had a simple, ancient face and cloudy eyes, as if he had seen all the vicissitudes of life. Just by standing there, he seemed to have become one with the entire Celestial City.

The other person didn't even glance at Zhu Chen, but simply raised a finger and lightly tapped his chest.

"--laugh!"

A sharp, intense pain shot through me!

Zhu Chen felt a chill in his chest and subconsciously looked down, only to see that his heart had been pierced by an invisible force, leaving a bowl-sized hole in his chest.
