# Chapter 1522: Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra
Since the news spread, the Sword City suddenly became crowded, with people from the Central Wasteland converging toward it.
The Eastern Emperor was hunting and killing the various emperors of the Eight Wastelands, and now those emperors had gathered together in Sword City, their spearheads pointed directly at the Envoy and the Eastern Emperor. How could this not attract the crowd's attention, making it the focus of all eyes?
Lin Feng and the others walked through Sword City. By Lin Feng's side were Yu Emperor, Wen Emperor, and Yan Emperor. Because of the Eastern Emperor, they dared not let their guard down. In the Eight Wastelands, the Eastern Emperor could easily track their whereabouts through that mysterious treasure.
Therefore, this time, their targets were not only the Envoy but also the Eastern Emperor. At the very least, they had to destroy that treasure; otherwise, who could be sure that after leaving this small world, the Eastern Emperor wouldn't still be able to find them through that treasure? That would still be very dangerous!
In the void, a mirror light shone down from the sky, suddenly illuminating the group. It lasted only an instant, but it made Lin Feng and the others stop in their tracks.
"He's coming soon!" Their hearts stirred slightly. The mirror light had descended, and the Eastern Emperor could now confirm their location. He would likely begin his journey here soon.
Lin Feng and the others continued strolling leisurely, unmoved, still walking through Sword City as if nothing was wrong, appearing exceptionally casual.
"That's Lin Feng, Yu Emperor, and Wen Emperor. The news is true; all the emperors of the Eight Wastelands have gathered in Sword City!" Lin Feng and his group hadn't concealed themselves, so they were easily recognized. Seeing Martial Emperors, many people became quite excited. These were lofty emperors, yet now they too walked through the streets like ordinary people.
"They still dare to move around outside?" Many people thought to themselves. The Eastern Emperor was a Mid-rank Emperor. If he descended, wouldn't these people be in great danger?
"Who is that Taoist? He seems to be a Martial Emperor too!" Someone noticed Yan Emperor. This fellow wore a Daoist robe, with an immortal air about him, but his rolling eyes gave off a very shrewd feeling, completely lacking the otherworldly demeanor a Taoist should have.
"You wouldn't understand this. That man is the new Yan Emperor of Flame Mountain. When he was still at the Venerable realm, he single-handedly tricked eight Martial Emperor experts. Now that he has stepped into the Martial Emperor realm, his strength is extremely terrifying. Even the Peng Emperor suffered a loss at his hands before." Some people proudly recounted Yan Emperor's glorious deeds. Although this fellow wasn't very high-profile, the few things he had done were quite sensational, so many people still knew about him and recognized him.
"Boom!" Suddenly, an extremely fierce and ferocious aura burst forth, terrifying to the extreme. Lin Feng only felt his entire body tighten. The pressure of heaven and earth crushed down on him, instantly suffocating him as death approached.
But almost at the moment this terrifying aura descended, Yan Emperor stomped hard on the ground. Instantly, a dazzling light curtain appeared, and brilliant light bloomed from the ground. Then, the entire group's figures simultaneously vanished from where they stood.
"Boom!" A terrifying tearing force struck the place where they had just been. Then, the Eastern Emperor's figure appeared in the void. His powerful attack tore open cracks in the space, but Lin Feng and the others were no longer there. His eyes turned icy as he stared into the distant void.
"You again!" The Eastern Emperor roared in fury. That damned Taoist was haunting him, and his speed was unbelievably fast. Using patterns to communicate with heaven and earth, he truly achieved one step per void. Last time, this bastard had chased after him. Whenever he wanted to kill someone, the Taoist would immediately get ahead and take them away, infuriating him to no end!
"Crack!" In the void, wildly dancing lightning suddenly appeared. A figure stepped through the air, wearing a loose white robe, his entire body bathed in the lightning of the Nine Heavens. Those bolts of lightning seemed to truly come from the Ninth Heaven, piercing from the sky down to the ground. Even strands of lightning coiled and wandered between his fingers. When his intent moved, the lightning moved too!
"Who is this?" Everyone's eyes shone with brilliance. This man was playing with lightning, standing casually, yet effortlessly directing the power of lightning. It even seemed to transcend the category of lightning, becoming the power of thunder punishment. And this white-robed middle-aged man was the one who controlled thunder punishment.
"Envoy!" Around Yan Emperor, Lin Feng, and the others, figures tore through the air and descended, arriving instantly. Their gazes all fell upon the expert playing with lightning, deep fear in their hearts. This transcendent Envoy actually controlled the violent power of lightning law, as if he governed thunder punishment and controlled life and death, giving people the illusion that he was the ruler of this small world.
"I've heard that many people have been dissatisfied with me lately!" The Envoy no longer had his previous gentleness. His gaze carried a cold intent, and lightning still danced at his fingertips, occasionally striking down around him, but never touching the ground—a terrifying display of control.
"Envoy, you jest. How would we dare to be dissatisfied with you?" Yu Emperor smiled faintly. Looking ahead, another figure appeared—the old Martial Emperor Sikong had also arrived. The opposing lineup had three Mid-rank Emperors. In this small world, such a lineup was absolutely terrifying.
"Do you take me for a fool?" The Envoy's eyes shot out a sharpness, like a bolt of lightning, piercing into Yu Emperor, giving him a faint numbing sensation.
"It seems it was you, Yu Emperor, who cursed me the most fiercely, saying I'm unworthy to be Envoy, that I will die without a burial place. You said all that, didn't you?" A bolt of lightning suddenly struck in front of Yu Emperor. A deafening crack resounded as it split the earth, leaving a deep hole in the ground.
"I did say those words. But given what you, Envoy, have done, have you not violated your duties? Saying you are unworthy doesn't seem wrong to me!" Yu Emperor calmly conversed with the white-robed Envoy. As he spoke, several Martial Emperors had already surrounded the Envoy from all sides—Wen Emperor's father and the old Palace Master of the Undying Heavenly Palace.
"Well said. As the Envoy, I shouldn't meddle in your affairs. But since someone has insulted me and cursed me to die without a burial place, I have no choice but to take action." The Envoy naturally noticed Wen Emperor's father and the old Palace Master, but he appeared completely unconcerned. In this small world, how could anyone possibly deal with him? These frogs at the bottom of a well needed a proper lesson.
The Eastern Emperor began to confront Wen Emperor's father, while the old Martial Emperor Sikong faced off against the old Palace Master.
The thunder of the Nine Heavens rolled and began to roar. A hint of gravity appeared in the eyes of Yu Emperor and the others. At this moment, their hearts were very tense. If they couldn't take down the Envoy, it would be an absolute disaster for all the emperors of the Eight Wastelands.
"Yu Emperor, Lin Feng, you two retreat first!" Yan Emperor spoke. Yu Emperor had suffered severe injuries, and Lin Feng's cultivation was utterly useless against the people before them. It would only be dangerous. They needed to leave!
Yu Emperor and Lin Feng's bodies slightly retreated. The Envoy's eyes flashed with a cold killing intent. "As the Envoy of Heaven and Earth, today I will use the power of thunder punishment to send down punishment upon you!"
"Kill!"
As the Envoy's words fell, heaven and earth became violent. Suddenly, above Lin Feng and the others, it was as if a heavenly tribulation had appeared. Infinitely terrifying thunder punishment power covered the entire sky. This stretch of heaven turned purple, purple and white light interweaving. Then, that infinite lightning poured down from the sky, too fast for the naked eye to follow.
Lin Feng's expression changed slightly. The speed of the thunder punishment power was too fast; there was no way to dodge. The Envoy actually excelled at thunder punishment!
"Crack!" Infinite lightning poured down. However, Lin Feng stood safely in place. A figure had appeared above him and Yu Emperor, bearing the terrifying thunder punishment power. His long robe fluttered—it was the Watcher's father who had arrived.
"Go!" The Watcher's father carried Lin Feng and Yu Emperor away, sending them out of this space. The white-robed Envoy snorted coldly, stepping forward, carrying rolling thunder as he stepped toward Yu Emperor. Trying to leave?
"Get back!" An impatient voice rang out. Suddenly, a figure in a Daoist robe appeared before the white-robed Envoy. His palm trembled slightly, light bursting forth. A terrifying light curtain swallowed the Envoy's thunder power. Black flames burned heaven and earth, actually giving the white-robed Envoy a faint sense of crisis.
"Courting death!" The white-robed Envoy flung the lightning in his hand. Instantly, a terrifying thunder punishment light pierced through the void, striking the light curtain. In an instant, the light curtain exploded. The Daoist figure retreated sharply but still stood before the white-robed Envoy.
"You cultivate the Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra!" The Daoist's mouth spat out these words, causing the white-robed Envoy's eyes to suddenly freeze. He stared at Yan Emperor. "Who are you? How do you know about the Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra?"
How could someone from this small world know what technique he cultivated?
"There aren't many thunder-type techniques to begin with. The ones with such weak power are only the Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra!" A faint, mocking smile appeared at the corner of Yan Emperor's mouth, causing the white-robed Envoy's eyes to stiffen. His eyes seemed to shoot out two bolts of lightning that pierced through the void. The Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra was created by a powerful Great Emperor, yet this man dared to call it such a weak technique—outrageous!
In truth, the Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra was not weak at all. It condensed the power of lightning law into thunder punishment power, as if governing heavenly tribulation, using calamity to send down thunder punishment. Its killing power was terrifying, and its attack speed was very fast, just like lightning. But how could Yan Emperor let this fellow feel comfortable? Even if it were the strongest technique, he would still call it trash!
"What do you know!" The white-robed Envoy mocked, killing intent flashing in his eyes. This man was only a Low-rank Emperor, but he should be the one the Eastern Emperor had mentioned—someone who could threaten a Mid-rank Emperor.
"Among thunder-type ancient scriptures, there are the Supreme World-Destroying Thunder Scripture, the Divine Punishment Sin Ancient Scripture, and the Source Heaven Divine Thunder Scripture. Isn't your Thunder Punishment Heart Sutra trash?" Yan Emperor said mockingly, making the white-robed Envoy's expression stiffen again. The scriptures Yan Emperor mentioned were all terrifying ancient scriptures among thunder-type techniques!
