Chapter 280 Qi Yuan Technique, Suppressing and Killing

"Sky City?"

"No way, isn't the City Lord of Rift Sky City a powerful figure in the early stage of God Emperor? How can he be compared to the Clan Head?"

"Could it be that he has broken through!?"

At this moment, Si Xuanxun and Dangyun Shenjun came to Shen Mu's side.

Si Xuanxun was the guardian of the Scripture Pavilion, while Dangyun Divine Lord was known as the number one retainer of the Si Xuan Clan, having once escaped with his life from the hands of a powerful God Emperor.

With a worried expression, Si Xuanxun said softly, "Brother Origin, the city lord's actions show how powerful the enemy is."

The Cloud-Piercing Divine Lord also looked at Shen Mu, his eyes full of doubt, and asked, "Brother Origin, what are your thoughts?"

Shen Mu shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "Let's wait and see."

Si Xuanxun and Dangyun Shenjun were filled with doubt. They had originally hoped to join forces with Shen Mu, but now that they saw his cold attitude, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Suddenly, Si Xuanhong stood up abruptly, exuding a murderous aura.

Si Xuanzhen hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Patriarch, the Rift Sky Thief has arrived. Shall we prepare to counterattack?"

Si Xuanhong's eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Zhentian, pass down the order to have all the experts of the Si Xuan clan form the ancestral formation and stop the enemy at all costs."

Si Xuanzhentian accepted the order and departed, shouting loudly, "All Si Xuan clan experts, heed my command! Quickly assemble our ancestral grand formation!"

Numerous experts from the Si Xuan Clan sprang into action, quickly forming a battle formation. The formation shimmered with light, radiating a powerful aura; it was said that this formation could allow a group of peak King-level experts to hold off a God Emperor.

Shen Mu and the others walked leisurely to the entrance of the hall, gazing into the distance.

In the distance, a large ship hovered on the horizon, its massive protective array revealing the entire city of Zhiyang below. A giant hand, several miles long, emerged from the warship and slammed down onto the protective array with a resounding thud.

After the light shield distorted slightly, it was shattered by the powerful force, and the large ship flew directly into Zhiyang City.

The experts of Zhiyang City paled upon seeing this. They were secretly shocked, not expecting the city's protective formation to be breached so easily.

Each minor realm advancement for a God Emperor is extremely difficult, leading them to suspect that their enemy might be a mid-stage God Emperor, or even ranked among the God Emperors.

An elderly deity with white hair frowned and said, "The invading enemy is so powerful that the city's protective formation was broken so easily. Could they be mid-stage God Emperors? Perhaps they are even on the God Emperor Ranking."

A middle-aged god-king beside him nodded solemnly: "It is very likely. Such power is definitely not something an ordinary early-stage god-emperor could possess."

The other experts also began to discuss among themselves. Some looked desperate, feeling that the Si Xuan clan was doomed; others had shifty eyes, as if they were considering their own way out.

The warship flew over the Si Xuan clan's residence, and the master of Rift Sky City stepped out, followed by five God Emperors.

The master of Rift City was dressed in a black robe, his eyes filled with endless killing intent, as if they could see through everything.

"Si Xuan Hongdu, your death is near. The entire Si Xuan clan will be uprooted today." The voice echoed in the air, sending chills down one's spine.

The Lord of Rift City surveyed his surroundings and declared loudly, "Anyone within Zhiyang City who is not a member of the Si Xuan clan and does not oppose me will not be harmed. Anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy!"

A timid deity hurriedly said, "We would never dare to be enemies with the Lord of Rift Sky City."

"court death!"

Si Xuanhong gathered the power of the void in his palm, instantly annihilating the begging god-king.

"Our Xuan clan has supported you for countless years, and gives you a chance to leave once every ten thousand years. This is more than enough."

"Now that the Si Xuan Clan is facing a great calamity, if there are any more deserters in the face of battle, don't blame me, Si Xuan Hong, for being ruthless."

High above the nine heavens, the master of Rift City snorted coldly, and the five God Emperors behind him and a large number of God Lords on the ship flew out, quickly forming huge battle formations and beginning to attack the Si Xuan Clan's residence.

"You old thief, don't think you can act so recklessly just because I failed in my breakthrough!"

Si Xuanhong did not hesitate to greet the master of Rift City. The Si Xuan Clan's mansion was protected by a magic array, and in recent millions of years, the Si Xuan Clan had spared no expense in building new magic arrays, making the arrays incredibly powerful.

Boom!

hum!

One after another, attacks that tore through the void appeared like ghosts, each one taking the lives of countless divine lords.

"Si Xuanhong, have you forgotten about us?"

One of the God Emperors grinned and spoke. The battle formation formed by the five God Emperors and three hundred God Lords was even more powerful than that of the Lord of Rift City.

"Our company's Xuan Zhentian isn't someone to be trifled with!"

The giant octopus appeared, revealing its true form as a wild beast—a rare sight indeed, a beast at the level of a God Emperor.

Deep within the Si Xuan clan, two elders at the God Emperor level also revived, their enormous God Emperor avatars manifesting, each blocking a God Emperor.

However, one figure shrouded in lightning was not intercepted. He formed a battle formation, gathered the power of hundreds of divine lords, and bombarded the Si Xuan Clan's protective city formation.

Boom!

Endless thunder and fire shook space and time, impacting the magic array's protective barrier.

"Gale Palm!"

Endless hurricane flames intertwined, transforming into a giant star that crashed down, causing the entire magic array to tremble continuously, and cracks to appear in many places on the ground.

"stop!"

Si Xuanhong wanted to retaliate, but it was too late. As cracks appeared on the ground of Zhiyang City, many magic arrays collapsed.

"Bang!"

The already dimmed light barrier in the sky was finally blasted open by the battle formation of the five God Emperors, creating a huge hole.

The ruthless lord of Rift City coldly ordered: "Exterminate the entire Si Xuan clan, leave no one alive."

Each of the five God Emperors led twenty God Lords, and they acted separately. The remaining two hundred God Lords also formed battle formations to attack below. Their first priority was to deal with Si Xuan Hongdu's children.

A squad led by Emperor Zhenlei, consisting of twenty Divine Lords, formed a battle formation and swooped down, heading straight for the brothers Si Xuanxu and Si Xuankong.

"Two little kids, the hippie-themed food must taste pretty good."

The thunderous laughter of Emperor Zhenlei echoed throughout the room.

"That's enough, let's stop here."

Shen Mu's voice rang out. He took a step and his foot landed on the void, instantly creating a terrifying void storm that surged forward like a raging wave, directly affecting the Thunder Emperor and the twenty Divine Lords under his command.

Although they formed a battle formation, Shen Mu's understanding of the rules was extremely profound, and his methods were exquisite, stepping on the weak points of the war.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the battle formation collapsed instantly.

Emperor Zhenlei's expression changed slightly. Although he was shocked, he was still very confident in the battle formation he formed with his twenty Divine Lords.

However, when the endless waves crashed onto the battle formation, their power was so overwhelming that they were involuntarily jolted to a halt. Furthermore, strange fluctuations ignored the battle formation's defenses and directly penetrated the bodies of the God Emperor and the twenty God-Kings.

As a god-emperor, Zhenlei Dijun cultivated the power of lightning and hurriedly suppressed the strange power within his body. However, the other twenty god-emperors were sent flying backward. Some coughed up blood and flew backward, while others suffered severe injuries such as their bodies being shattered and then struggling to repair themselves.

As Shen Mu took a step, his aura was no longer concealed, and a powerful aura of a mid-stage God Emperor surged into the sky.

The surrounding experts, sensing this aura, all showed expressions of shock. A young Divine Lord widened his eyes and muttered, "This aura... could he be a Divine Emperor? How is that possible!"

Shen Mu took another step, his figure blurring as he used the teleportation technique from the "Infinite Chaos Codex." He instantly arrived in front of Emperor Zhenlei.

"Your opponent is me!"

With a furious roar, Emperor Zhenlei transformed into a gigantic thunder dragon, its entire body crackling with lightning, and lunged at Shen Mu.

The lightning on the thunder dragon's body flickered, as if countless lightning bolts were intertwined, each containing terrifying power, and the surrounding space was distorted by the power of lightning.

A long spear appeared in Shen Mu's right hand. The spear was entirely black and was a miniature version of the Ten Absolute Primal Exquisite Step.

With his spear in hand, he thrust forward, the tip of the spear colliding with one of the Thunder Dragon's claws.

Lei Long scoffed inwardly, confident in its strong wings and claws. But Shen Mu's thrust sent a surge of boundless energy penetrating its body.

These fluctuations surged within the Thunder Dragon's body, splitting into three distinct waves that converged, growing increasingly terrifying. The Thunder Dragon's body trembled violently as it tried to suppress these terrifying fluctuations, but ultimately, multiple parts of its body exploded, releasing bolts of lightning.

Thunder Dragon rapidly shrank its body in an attempt to heal its injuries, but its body had already shrunk considerably.

Shen Mu fired another shot, and Lei Long's body twisted again, with three more heads shattering violently, this time even more severely.

Then Shen Mu thrust again, his boundless divine power transforming into terrifying infinite energy, which enveloped every piece of the thunder dragon's flesh and began to annihilate it.

Countless pieces of flesh exploded at the tip of Shen Mu's spear, and the thunder dragon was completely annihilated.

The entire battlefield fell silent. The four squads, each led by a God Emperor, the Lord of Rift City, and Si Xuanxun and other powerful figures from within the city who did not wish to perish with him, were all stunned.

After killing Emperor Zhenlei, Shen Mu did not stop, his gaze falling on another powerful figure under the command of the Lord of Rift Sky City who was skilled in manipulating water and could turn water into blades.

This powerful figure was originally leading twenty Divine Lords in a battle formation to attack the experts of the Si Xuan Clan, but after Shen Mu erupted, he couldn't help but look over.

Shen Mu moved swiftly, once again unleashing the Infinite Chaos Movement Technique, lunging towards the powerful figure. The powerful figure's expression changed drastically, and he retreated without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, the Lord of Rift City in the distance became extremely anxious and shouted, "Origin God Emperor, if you have the guts, fight me!"

At this moment, the powerful figure being chased by Shen Mu transformed into countless water droplets, scattering in all directions.

"Certainly!"

An overwhelming will spread out, instantly flattening the space in front of Shen Mu. The powerful figure who transformed into a water droplet and fled felt the surrounding space changing drastically, as if it were about to be reduced to a lower dimension.

"No!"

Amidst the endless flow of water, the figure struggled desperately, but under immense pressure, countless water droplets were compressed.

When the pressure in the space disappeared, he was overjoyed and prepared to escape. However, a terrifying spear suddenly appeared, shattering the space in front of him like tofu.

Boom!

Spacetime exploded, and in this terrifying explosion, the water droplets of the water flow expert were completely annihilated, leaving not a trace.

Everyone was once again speechless with shock. After a long while, someone finally said in a trembling voice, "This strength... is simply heaven-defying."

The other subordinates of the Lord of Rift City fled in panic. The Lord of Rift City angrily charged at Shen Mu, demanding a fight. Shen Mu, unfazed, held his gun in one hand and said, "You're no match for me!"

"What a pathetic mid-stage God Emperor! Die!"

The Lord of Sky Rift City had his hair flying wildly, appeared mad, and exuded overwhelming power.

He stretched out his palms, and endless gales enveloped Shen Mu, tearing space apart inch by inch, condensing into a hurricane layer on the body of the Lord of Rift Sky City. This hurricane was far more domineering than the one that had struck the Lord of Spirit Heart Pavilion before.

Shen Mu spun his spear, and the spearhead created vortexes that spread outwards, annihilating the fierce winds.

This spear strike not only incorporates the Infinite Dao and the Dao of Mind, but also draws upon some of the mysteries of the "Shadow Killing Technique of Destruction," combined with my current level of cultivation, to create this unique spear technique.

After being weakened through layers, the gale still had immense power when it reached Shen Mu, but it was negligible for Shen Mu, who was at the mid-stage of the God Emperor realm.

"How is this possible?" The master of Rift City changed color. This Origin God Emperor was actually able to withstand the power of the gale and come directly in front of him.

Shen Mu suddenly thrust his spinning spear toward the master of Rift Sky City.

The master of Rift City felt the void itself shaking and distorting. He had a feeling that there was no way to dodge this spear, so he used his fists to unleash destructive power. His fists even turned dark red, and he slammed both fists forward at the same time. As he slammed them out, his fists grew rapidly, and the two fists were like two small mountains, rumbling and crushing down on the spearhead.

Boom!

It was as if two giant stars had collided, and boundless primordial energy exploded.

The master of Rift City looked grim. Shen Mu's killing move ignored his defenses and went directly into his body. The surging waves swept through his body and grew larger and larger. When they gathered to the extreme, they even exploded, as if they had infinite energy.

The Lord of Rift City felt a sweet taste in his throat, and he forcibly swallowed a mouthful of blood. His Gale Layer, his strongest defensive technique, was completely useless against Shen Mu's attack, as he sensed the strange and ruthless nature of the Ascended God Emperor's move.

"Die!"

The Lord of Rift City roared as he charged forward, completely burning his bloodline power, his aura instantly surging to the limit of the mid-stage God Emperor realm.

A scorching wind rippled around him, and the terrifying heat alone melted the surrounding void.

At this moment, the master of Rift City went completely mad. He even transformed into a towering giant thousands of miles tall and struck Shen Mu, who was as insignificant as an ant, with both palms.

One palm was an endless hurricane, the other a blazing flame; the wind and fire danced wildly, shaking heaven and earth.

"To die by my ultimate technique is an honor for you."

Shen Mu's figure seemed to become illusory, and endless phantoms of will appeared between heaven and earth, evolving into countless stars in the universe.

"Urging Yuan Technique, Suppress and Kill!"

Shen Mu's voice echoed in everyone's ears, and the others felt their souls vibrate along with the sound.

The master of the Sky Rift City froze on the spot, his vast and powerful bloodline fluctuations began to subside, and his life force dissipated as well.
