"Fellow Daoist, your divine power is astounding!"
Jiang Yun's eyes shot out two astonishing beams of light as he looked at the blood-stained heads, his heart filled with shock.
Four powerful beings were annihilated in an instant, not even in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea!
At the Dragon Transformation Pool, everyone gasped in shock, utterly astonished. The most powerful human being in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness was terrifyingly powerful! No wonder he was a renowned figure throughout the World!
"He really is a top-tier fighter!" Ye Fan was also extremely shocked, deeply astonished by Nangong Zheng's combat power. He was amazed that four powerful figures had been killed so quickly.
"These people are not real people, but ancient corpses!" Nangong Zheng said.
"What is their background?" Jiang Yun asked in surprise, realizing these people were not real.
"It must be a powerful being from ancient times who has passed away, and an extraordinary figure has controlled him," Nangong Zheng pondered for a moment.
So that's how it is!
These words weighed heavily on many people's hearts, indicating that the person behind them was terrifying, capable of controlling the corpse of a powerful being. Their strength was astonishing, and it was unknown what great crisis might follow.
Everyone in the underground palace was on edge. A storm was brewing, and everyone realized the seriousness of the situation. If even a mere test was this terrifying, how horrific would it be if a full-scale attack were launched?
They knew perfectly well that if Nangong Zheng hadn't been there, they would have been forced to use their ultimate weapons.
After slaying several ancient corpses, the Dragon Transformation Pool calmed down temporarily. Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two days had gone by.
In the past two days, Nangong Zheng has carved out a secret chamber in the underground palace. He has summoned the Devouring Demon Canopy and disguised it. If there is an earth-shattering battle, he does not want the Demon Canopy to be exposed to the World so soon.
Furthermore, during this period, Ye Fan provided many benefits, gradually improving the health of Old God King Jiang Taixu, giving him much vitality and life.
boom!
Suddenly, just as everything was developing in a positive direction, another change occurred. The void roared, the sky was torn apart like a rag, and even the underground palace was impacted. A terrifying force targeting the Dragon Transformation Pool swept in.
At this moment, everyone in the Divine City was shocked to see crimson clouds soaring into the sky and phoenixes crying out in the heavens, as if a divine phoenix had been reborn from the ashes and was soaring between heaven and earth. The Hengyu Furnace was alarmed.
In the divine city, many people's souls trembled, and they couldn't help but worship, their bodies collapsing to the ground. That power was too terrifying; almost no one could resist it.
"Someone is attacking with imperial weapons!" someone from the Jiang family exclaimed in alarm.
Nangong Zheng was also alarmed and stepped out of the secret chamber.
"Protect the Divine King Ancestor!"
"How dare you wage war against us! Do you want to return to the Dark Ages?"
"You dare to challenge the prestige of the Jiang family? You're courting death!"
The Jiang family was both shocked and furious.
Whoosh!
The underground palace trembled violently, and the water in the Dragon Transformation Pool splashed. The elders of the Jiang family were all shocked and hurriedly used their great magic to stabilize the Dragon Transformation Pool and prevent Jiang Taixu from being calamized.
The Hengyu Furnace hummed softly, radiating brilliant light, and settled the Dragon Transformation Pool to protect everyone.
If Hengyu Furnace hadn't been here, many people would probably have perished, and the entire underground palace might have collapsed.
boom!
The Sun God Furnace hummed softly, and the Crimson Gold Divine Phoenix soared into the sky. It was reviving, fighting against the incoming Supreme Emperor Weapon.
In the divine city, many people screamed in terror. In contrast, others prayed silently that the two imperial weapons would not unleash their ultimate power, many people would suffer, and even the entire divine city would be destroyed.
The Sun God Furnace and another imperial weapon were locked in a standoff, but almost no one knew what the other imperial weapon was, because it was shrouded in mystery. Clearly, it had been deliberately hidden, and no one wanted to know.
At the Dragon Transformation Pool, Jiang Yun and the rest of the Jiang family were speculating about which ultimate weapon it was, but they couldn't figure it out.
"It must be the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron that Yao Guang lent out!" Nangong Zheng thought silently, his eyes deep.
"Unleash the ultimate divine power!" Jiang Yun shouted, his voice filled with unwavering resolve.
The Jiang family was shocked. If that happened, the entire divine city might be reduced to ashes.
"They've already bullied the Jiang family like this. What are you still hesitating over? Beat them up! I'll take responsibility if anything happens!" Jiang Yun's face was icy cold.
Nangong Zheng was somewhat surprised; this Jiang Yun was indeed a remarkable person with great ambition.
"As expected of the ancient Jiang family, you certainly have great courage, but you've miscalculated!" A cold snort rang out, the words icy and ruthless.
Buzz!
The Sun God Furnace shone with boundless light, turning night into day. Phoenix blood shone like the sun, and the smoke and clouds were dazzling. A blood-stained phoenix soared into the sky, shattering the heavens. A terrifying aura permeated the air, as if it had been completely revived.
However, at this crucial moment, the void suddenly paused slightly, as if it had sunk into a quagmire.
The Jiang family was horrified to discover that the Supreme Divine Might could not be unleashed because this World was engraved with the Great Emperor's array patterns, which connected the Hengyu Furnace and the hidden Emperor Weapon, suppressing each other and rendering them impossible to activate.
Clearly, neither side can use its ultimate imperial weapons now.
"Heh heh, a blood-stained feast is about to begin!" A voice spoke coldly outside the Dragon Transformation Pool, carrying a chilling killing intent.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time, terrifying figures emerged from within the divine city. Countless blood dragons, each incredibly thick, and countless dragon-shaped blood energies soaring into the sky, were all moving towards the Dragon Transformation Pool.
A group of unparalleled masters appeared, intending to kill the God King Jiang Taixu!
Each one of them was like an eternal divine furnace, with vigorous blood and energy reaching the heavens. They were all at the level of a Holy Lord, or even more terrifying. When they gathered together, they crushed the heavens and the earth, and even made the Holy City shake.
They want to kill the God King Jiang Taixu, prevent his resurrection, and completely extinguish his life!
These people didn't know each other's identities; they were gathered together because of the same goal.
"This is outrageous! If my clan were at the peak of its God-King level, would you bunch of clowns dare to set foot here even a step?" Jiang Yun was furious. So many powerful people had come together to carry out this extermination.
Around the Dragon Transformation Pool, there seemed to be many divine furnaces burning, like volcanoes erupting, connected, a truly awe-inspiring sight.
"Fellow Daoist, it seems we're in big trouble!" Jiang Yun gave a wry smile and looked at Nangong Zheng.
Ye Fan was also worried. He knew that Nangong Zheng was unparalleled in the World, but there were too many Holy Lords this time.
In his view, with thirteen holy lords appearing together, unless ancient sages reappear, it would almost certainly mean certain death!
"No need to worry. In my opinion, they are all just clay chickens and earthen dogs, nothing to fear." Nangong Zheng said calmly.
Jiang Yun was astonished that Nangong Zheng could remain so calm under such circumstances.
"Slay the God-King!"
"Sever Jiang Taixu's head! Send him on his way!"
"The aging God-King should also pass away!"
...
Outside the Dragon Transformation Pool, voices echoed across the sky, cold and ruthless. They were all Holy Lords, each a top expert, indifferent and arrogant.
In the divine city, almost everyone heard it; the deep words struck people's hearts like a divine hammer.
"What a pity for the Jiang family!"
"A hero grows old, and the God-King has ultimately squandered his chance for resurrection!"
"No matter how powerful the Jiang family is, how can they face thirteen Holy Lords? How pitiful and lamentable!"
In the divine city, many people were discussing that, given this situation, the Jiang family would surely suffer heavy losses and have little chance left.
Thirteen holy lords appeared together, each shrouded in mist, making them impossible to see through.
A powerful killing intent surged forth, all aimed at killing a dying old god-king.
Their aura was terrifying; just by standing there, they made the underground palace tremble as if it might collapse into the Dragon Transformation Pool at any moment.
The next moment, endless vitality spread; the fragrance of grass and trees filled the universe, and the whole World seemed frozen in time.
Nangong Zheng rose from the underground palace and stood in mid-air, his white hair as white as snow, his green robes fluttering, his elegance unparalleled.
Petals fluttered everywhere, radiant and beautiful. Nangong Zheng was utterly detached, like a deity holding a flower. Behind him, a towering ancient tree grew, reaching into the sky.
"The supreme human powerhouse, Nangong Zheng, has appeared!"
"Nangong Zheng, the immortal Nangong Zheng!"
"Nangong Zheng, is he here to protect King Jiang?!"
In an instant, all eyes in the entire divine city were focused on Nangong Zheng, deeply shocked. They still clearly remembered that Nangong Zheng possessed immense strength and, during the chaos in the divine city, slaughtered ancient creatures as easily as killing chickens and dogs.
Now, another person is confronting thirteen holy masters. What a spirit this is! Regardless of the outcome, Nangong Zheng is destined to stir up the winds and clouds of the five regions and shake the World.
"Everyone, leave now. I'll protect this place," Nangong Zheng said calmly, glancing at the thirteen Holy Lords.
The thirteen holy lords were all shrouded in mist. After seeing Nangong Zheng, their reactions varied.
"Nangong Zheng? He's someone! But if you think you can stop us, you're dreaming!" someone said coldly.
"Hehe, powerful figure from the Southern Region, I advise you to leave. Don't become a scapegoat for the Jiang family! With thirteen Holy Lords gathered, no place in the World can be conquered, and no one can be defeated!" someone else threatened.
"Nangong Zheng, who do you think you are? Get out of my way! Go back to your Southern Region, or I'll kill you first!" A tall older man shrouded in black mist said hoarsely, taking a step forward and exuding endless killing intent.
"Is that so?!" Nangong Zheng said calmly, a cold smile curving his lips.
Clang
With a flick of his finger, a blade of grass flew out, transforming into a streak of light. It was so fast that it shattered the void and arrived before the older man.
The older man roared, and as he opened his mouth, golden ripples spread out. That was his divine technique, a great sonic power that rippled through space and could shatter heaven and earth.
However, it was all in vain. The grass flew over, its sword energy crisscrossing and extremely sharp. Finally, it pierced through the golden ripples and then, with a soft "poof," pierced through his brow.
"Ah..." the old man cried out, blood gushing from between his eyebrows. He struggled desperately, but the light in his eyes dimmed rapidly, and his whole body exploded in the void, shattering into pieces.
A peerless sage ruler died just like that, from the touch of a blade of grass.
Everyone present was deeply moved and shocked. Nangong Zheng instantly killed a peerless holy lord!
