I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

That bolt of dark golden lightning seemed to embody the purest destructive will of the Heavenly Dao, disregarding the distance of space and time.

The moment Chu Changqing's horrified roar fell, it struck solidly the figure bathed in the nine-colored divine light.

"puff!"

Chu Feng's face, which had just regained some color, instantly turned ashen white, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of his origin.

His physical body, comparable to a sacred weapon and even surpassing that of ordinary sacred weapons under the tempering of the Fountain of Youth and its boundless primal energy, cracked inch by inch from head to toe like fragile porcelain under this bolt of lightning.

From countless deep, bone-revealing cracks, golden, immortal blood gushed out, only to be obliterated into nothingness the instant it touched the air by the lingering dark golden aura of destruction.

"Ugh—"

Even with Chu Feng's incredibly strong will, he couldn't help but let out a suppressed groan of pain.

It was not just physical pain, but a tearing sensation originating from the soul and destiny.

The punishments of Heaven are never limited to the physical body.

"Little Wind!"

"Owner!"

In the distance, Zhuge Yue, Shi Xuanfei, and the others cried out in alarm, their faces pale and their eyes filled with endless anxiety and worry.

For the first time, a violent emotional fluctuation appeared on Su Youwei's eternally frozen, beautiful face. Yin energy surged around her, and with a swift movement, she was about to rush forward without regard for anything else.

"stop!"

Chu Changqing's figure appeared in front of her like a ghost, raising his hand to stop her, his expression more solemn than ever before.

"Are you insane? That's the Ninefold Divine Punishment! The final judgment specifically for those who defy the heavens! A direct manifestation of the will of Heaven! If you rush over now, not only will you not be able to save him, but external interference will also cause the power of the divine punishment to increase tenfold out of thin air! At that time, you will both die!"

"Get out of the way!" Su Youwei's voice was icy cold, and for the first time, a fierce rage ignited in her clear, cold eyes. "In his current state, there's no way he can withstand it! You expect me to just watch him die?"

She didn't understand why she had lost her composure like that.

This man is a flaw in her path, a cause and effect she desperately wants to sever.

But when she saw him struck by lightning, his flesh mangled and his life rapidly fading, she felt as if her heart was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, the pain making it hard to breathe.

"He is no ordinary person." Chu Changqing did not back down, but stared intently at the figure struggling in the lightning, and said in a deep voice, "He is the successor of the Human Emperor, and he is burdened with the great fortune of the human race. His destiny has long transcended the norm. If Heaven wants to destroy him, he may... be able to defy Heaven."

That being said, his tone was full of uncertainty.

The Ninefold Divine Punishment existed only in the oldest legends in ancient times.

It was a hundred times more terrifying than the divine punishment Chu Feng had experienced before!

Legend has it that only those who attempt to challenge the authority of Heaven and violate the ultimate taboos of Heaven and Earth will be subject to this irreconcilable calamity of death.

Since the beginning of time, through the changing eras, no one has ever been known to survive these ninefold divine punishments.

Can Chu Feng really create this miracle?

Click!

Just as the two were locked in a standoff, a second dark golden lightning bolt condensed in the sky.

Its size is much larger than the first one, and the destructive aura it contains is several times more concentrated!

boom!!!

The lightning struck again, hitting Chu Feng's battered body with pinpoint accuracy.

"puff……"

Chu Feng spat out another mouthful of blood, and like a kite with a broken string, he fell helplessly from mid-air, crashing heavily into the ruins of Baidi City, stirring up clouds of dust.

The cracks on his body became more numerous and denser, and he was almost covered in blood, his life force fading and withering away at an alarming rate.

The "Burial Heaven Technique" and the "Undying Heavenly Art" within his body were operating wildly, trying to repair his injuries and refine the destructive lightning that had invaded his body.

However, the dark golden lightning power seemed to be an enemy of all paths, domineering and impossible to refine. It was like a maggot clinging to his bone, frantically destroying Chu Feng's life force, eroding his soul, and corroding his destiny.

"hateful……"

Chu Feng lay in the deep pit, his consciousness beginning to blur.

He felt his strength rapidly draining away, and the shadow of death engulfing him like a tidal wave.

No... I can't die...

My sister is still waiting for me in the Heavenly Meteor Forbidden Zone...

Bao'er is still suffering in the Heavenly Ruins Holy Land...

The White Emperor's Imperial Medicine... Father's whereabouts... Mother's identity...

And then there are the nine forbidden giants who are about to break free from the coffin of burial...

I still have so much to do...

We absolutely cannot... die here!

A strong will to survive allowed Chu Feng's fading consciousness to re-form.

He struggled, trying to mobilize all the power within his body: the Human Emperor Sword, the Desolate Heaven Seal, the Great Desolate Heaven-Suppressing Fist, the Nine Netherworld Prison-Suppressing Scripture...

However, under the absolute suppression of the Heavenly Punishment, all his cultivation techniques and bloodlines seemed to be shackled and could not be used at all.

For the first time, he felt such a profound sense of powerlessness.

Click!

A third bolt of lightning crashed down from the sky!

This time, Chu Feng couldn't even let out a muffled groan.

His body trembled violently, and then he became completely still. The flame of life that had been burning so fiercely seemed to be extinguished at that moment.

"..."

The entire city of Baidi fell into a deathly silence.

All eyes were focused on the deep pit, as they watched the aura completely annihilate.

It’s over.

A deep sense of regret and helplessness flashed in Chu Changqing's eyes.

In the end, they still couldn't create a miracle...

Su Youwei swayed, and her stunningly beautiful face instantly lost all color, becoming paler than snow.

This terrifying celestial phenomenon had already alarmed the entire heavenly realm.

Countless ancient lineages, forbidden zones of life, and supreme divine dynasties, all gazes that pierce through time and space are directed toward the direction of White Emperor City.

"Ninefold divine punishment? It hasn't happened in so many years..."

"Who is it that has provoked such wrath from Heaven?"

"Aura...is it at the Saint Ancestor Realm? No, it's someone who just emerged from the Saint Ancestor Realm, forcibly defying fate and touching a domain they shouldn't have..."

"Who exactly is this child? It's a pity, he's doomed."

Ancient and vast thoughts intertwined in the void, carrying surprise, regret, and a hint of schadenfreude.

boom!

The fourth bolt of lightning struck!

The crater expanded again, and the terrifying destructive energy turned everything within a hundred miles into dust.

The fifth one!

The sixth one!

……

One bolt of lightning after another, more terrifying than the last, struck down relentlessly, as if determined not to stop until the defiant one was utterly reduced to ashes.

After the eighth bolt of lightning struck, the entire White Emperor City was completely wiped off the map, leaving only a bottomless, giant sinkhole still emitting black smoke.

At the deepest part of the sinkhole, the figure had long since turned into a charred corpse, and no trace of life could be felt anymore.

The churning clouds in the sky did not dissipate.

Instead, they are converging at an even more terrifying speed.

All the dark clouds, all the lightning, all the aura of destruction, all converged into a single point at this moment.

It was a bolt of lightning... as black as ink.

It didn't have any earth-shattering momentum, but it exuded an aura of ultimate destruction that made even the Great Emperor tremble.

That was... the final layer of the ninefold divine punishment.

Heaven's Way... Absolute Kill!
