There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 62 Settling Past Karma
"Buzz!"

The moment the hand seal was formed, Chen Qing's pores opened to their fullest extent!
The spiritual light within the Niwan Palace, like the purest core of a star, suddenly radiated outwards in an invisible yet incredibly profound wave!
This fluctuation is not confrontation, but... resonance!
It was as if a musician had plucked the strings of a star-powered instrument that formed the giant hand of stars!

The giant hand of stars touched Chen Qing the instant...

"Wow--"

There was no earth-shattering explosion, no cataclysmic impact!
The condensed starlight that formed the giant hand suddenly dissipated without warning!
Countless brilliant stardust fragments were swept up as if by a hurricane, breaking free from the shape of the giant hand and transforming into a vast, hazy, dreamlike sea of ​​stardust, which surged, swirled, and lingered violently within a radius of ten feet around Chen Qing!
Like a swarm of fireflies that have lost their purpose, they fly and collide wildly and chaotically, exuding a sense of disorder and danger!

The solidified space shattered like fragile glass under the impact of this chaotic stardust!
The protective light formed by the Ninth-Rank Azure Lotus Platform once again enveloped Chen Qing's entire body, supporting him as he flew up, escaping the star storm and landing in the distance!

The lotus petals swirled, and the azure light flowed like water, steadily blocking the violent and chaotic fragments of star power that were trying to tear everything apart!
quiet!
The entire battlefield, whether it was the formation-breakers struggling inside the formation, the various giants fighting outside the formation, or even the Empress sitting high in the floating palace, was plunged into an unprecedented deathly silence!
A wisp of light quietly dissipated from Xu Qingfeng's fingertip, revealing surprise and understanding.

"He actually figured it out..."

Xu Chengqian stared at the sea of ​​stardust, his eyes flashing with a sharp light: "Disrupted the stellar power circulation of the Zhou Tian Star Dipper Restriction?"

Above the floating palace, a hint of surprise and doubt flashed in the Empress's indifferent eyes that had previously looked down on all living beings!
A sense of foreboding crept into my mind.

The joy on Xu Qitian's face froze instantly, and the anger in his eyes almost burst forth!

"Zhao Yuanji! I ordered you to eliminate the threat and intimidate them! How dare you allow this source of trouble to infiltrate the heart of the formation?!"

Zhao Yuanji hurriedly explained, "Your Highness! This fiend is cunning! He took the Star-Stabilizing Pearl, and I thought he had been appeased!" He pointed to Chen Qing in the formation, "His ability to enter the formation to avoid the calamity is not due to his supernatural powers, but because he shares the same origin as the Spirit Bone! That's why..."

"Zhao Yuanji!" The icy voice carried an unprecedented chilling killing intent, "Kill this man!"

Zhao Yuanji was terrified and dared not argue any further. His thoughts raced wildly!

The grand formation uses the Devouring Abyss Bone as a furnace to refine the Nine Tribulations and transform cause and effect!

Chen Xu was able to avoid the calamity because he shared the same origin as the spiritual bone!

"The key to breaking this deadlock... requires someone with a deep karmic entanglement with Chen Xu and who is also connected to this great formation! Using this person as a catalyst, we can disrupt the formation's 'shared protection' for Chen Xu!"

A name flashed through Zhao Yuanji's mind!

"Your Highness!" he spoke rapidly, "There was a man who, under your secret orders, carried out the task of digging out bones! You, mindful of his merits, exceptionally granted him entry into the Taiyi True Palace for cultivation! This man is capable of disrupting the foundations of cause and effect in Chenxu!"

"Who?!" Xu Qitian's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

“Li Xiao!” Zhao Yuanji revealed his name. “He has a blood feud with Chen Xu, their karmic entanglements are extremely deep! Luring him into the formation can temporarily disrupt the formation’s protection of Chen Xu! At that time, the formation’s power will crush him into dust!”

"Li Xiao? The one who dug out the bones? I remember now." Xu Qitian regained some of his composure. "What a causal link! Zhao Yuanji, you're still somewhat useful after all!"

He brought his two fingers together, and a blood-red talisman suddenly appeared at the tip of his finger!
On the talisman, Li Xiao's blurry figure and a thread of cause and effect appeared!
"Tracing the bloodline and guiding the soul, using cause and effect as the bridge!"

"boom!"

Ignoring spatial distance, the talisman pierced through layers of restrictions and entered a majestic palace shrouded in purple true fire.

"Shh!"

The void less than ten feet away from Chen Qing on the altar of the Heavenly Evolution Platform suddenly tore apart!

Li Xiao's brow was tinged with a bloody light as the vermilion mark between his brows was forcibly drawn over.

"Where...where is this?!"

He was still in shock and looked around.

A magnificent altar!

The aura of calamity surged!

And... that jet-black spirit bone in the center of the altar!
and many more!

Li Xiao's gaze was drawn as if by a magnet, fixed on the figure closest to the spirit bone!
"Chen Xu?!"

Just then, the Sixth Prince's will forcefully poured into his sea of ​​consciousness, revealing the reason—

"...causal trigger...disrupting protection...annihilating Chen Xu!"

In an instant, Li Xiao understood!

I was clearly caught up in a terrible disaster!
The root of the problem was that "sworn brother" whom he should have trampled into the mud and never be able to rise again!
Taking a deep breath, Li Xiao's fear vanished. Behind him, a blurry illusory figure of a Yin spirit appeared and disappeared, but it suppressed itself and dared not leave his body. The place was filled with calamity energy, and once the Yin spirit left his body, it would surely turn to ashes!

"Today is my tribulation, but also my destiny. By destroying you, I will sweep away the cause and effect, realize my true self, and from now on, my path will be smooth and free from all dust."

A look of understanding and relief appeared on his face. Then, he pointed his fingers like a sword and unleashed a condensed, pale white sword aura that pierced straight at Chen Qing's brow!

"Death!" "When—"

Chen Qing formed a hand seal with his right hand, and the Azure Lotus Platform of the Ninth Rank surged with azure light, blocking the fatal sword strike!
“I didn’t expect it would be you who blocked me,” he said calmly. “That’s right, to obtain the spirit bone, one must indeed settle the karmic debts.”

When Li Xiao's attack was blocked, a stream of light swirled around him, revealing a robe woven from mysterious runes that emitted a hazy, clear light, isolating him from the violent calamity energy and chaotic star power!
One of the hallmarks of the Third Realm of Profound Unity is the Dharma Robe that conceals the calamity!
"Chen Xu!" Li Xiao actually smiled. "Realm level is an insurmountable barrier. In this great calamity formation, the strong live and the weak perish!"

He formed a hand seal and stared indifferently at Chen Qing, as if he were nothing more than a blade of grass.

boom!
A thick, dark blue flame, as thick as a child's arm, pierced straight into Chen Qing's heart!
Chen Qing's pupils suddenly contracted!

Faced with this killing move, unleashed with all one's might in the late stage of the third realm and driven by the essence of Yin spirit, even burning one's life force might not be enough to stop it!
"However, since we are in this battle, we can borrow strength from them!"

He raised his hand and made a hand seal.

The starlight hand, driven by the Heavenly Queen, had dissipated, leaving behind stardust and dust that surged chaotically in all directions!

Star Forbidden Technique!

The Qi unites with Heaven and Earth!

lead!
Chen Qingfu focused his mind and pushed the "Qi Harmony with Heaven and Earth" technique to its limit, adding it to the Star Forbidden Technique!
His spiritual light resonated faintly with the Zhou Tian Star Battle Restriction, and it was instantly amplified!

hum!
The scattered, violent power of the stars seemed to have found an outlet, flowing like rivers into the sea, and frantically converging on Chen Qing!
Before everyone's incredulous eyes, a gigantic hand, formed purely from starlight and with an outline similar to the one the Heavenly Queen had previously conjured, materialized out of thin air in front of Chen Qing!

It's just rougher and more violent, as if it could explode at any moment!

"Wha...what?!"

The composure on Li Xiao's face vanished instantly, replaced by shock and fear!
"town!"

The giant starlight palm, carrying the terrifying power to crush stars, struck first despite being behind, and slammed hard onto that dark blue ice flame!

"boom!!!"

冰焰瞬间湮灭！

The giant starlight palm continued its momentum, carrying a violent force that could crush everything, and slammed down on Li Xiao!
The robe that could withstand the calamity shattered instantly, like paper!
The protective aura vanished!

Flesh and bones crumbled inch by inch under the immense power of the stars!
"Do not!!!"

Li Xiao's Yin spirit was exposed, then suddenly expanded, instantly covered with dazzling spiderweb-like cracks! Countless tiny starlight burst out from within!
"puff!"

Like a punctured blister!
The Yin spirit is shattered.

Body and spirit annihilated, soul scattered and spirit dispersed!
Even the remnant soul could not escape being devoured by this land of calamity!

"impossible!"

The most shocked was Zhao Yuanji. He originally thought that Chen Xu was able to move freely in the formation because he shared the same origin as the spirit bone, which is why he suggested luring Li Xiao into the formation.

However, Chen Xu was not only unaffected, but also stirred up the stardust, used the force to turn into a palm strike, and blasted Li Xiao, who was in the third realm, to the point of being completely obliterated!

How can this be considered taking advantage of shared origins?
It is clearly... that they stole a trace of the power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Jin!
A chill instantly crept up my spine!
"Useless trash!" Outside the formation, the Sixth Prince Xu Qitian's face was ashen. "Zhao Yuanji! What are you still standing there for? Enter the formation and face the tribulation! If you fail again, I will exterminate your entire clan! I will then extract your soul and refine your spirit, making you suffer for eternity!"

Zhao Yuanji trembled violently.

Enter the battle?

This formation is rife with calamities, and the web of cause and effect is intricate!
Although he held the Star-Guiding Banner, once he left this corner of the formation and stepped into the vortex of calamity, he would also be tainted by the calamity... But he had no way to retreat!

"Your subordinate... obeys!"

Zhao Yuanji's voice was hoarse as he gripped the Xuan Sha Guiding Star Banner tightly, staring at the figure protected by the green lotus, and took a step out of the array eye!
"Chen Xu! You ant, how dare you disrupt my destiny..."

"Ants? Only those who are powerless are ants."

Chen Qing suddenly turned around, and his left hand, hidden in his sleeve, suddenly rose up. Between his five fingers, a point of extremely white light suddenly burst forth!

The stars faded, the light of calamity fell silently!
It pierced through space and ignored distance.

Zhao Yuanji's eyes reflected that point of white light, his movements froze in mid-air, his ferocious killing intent replaced by boundless fear!

"Pfft!"

The light of the calamity was like a hot knife cutting through oil, piercing through the space between the eyebrows.
