# Chapter 3520: Void Heaven and Feng Tian
War God Ming Zun's divine source had already successfully self-detonated, but at the final moment, Nutian Shenzun had triggered the time rules within Zhang Ruochen's Taiyin, sealing it in a frozen moment.
Once the time rules dispersed, it could no longer be stopped.
This was ten times more difficult than preventing War God Ming Zun from self-detonating his divine source.
When destructive force reaches a certain level, great sound becomes silent.
The light and flames formed by the divine source explosion were so bright that they could be seen from distant star regions. To many cultivators on planets and great worlds, it seemed as if the entire universe had lit up, and heaven and earth were about to be destroyed.
Wherever the light and flames spread, all matter and rules were annihilated.
Fulu Shenzun was right next to it. His black robe turned to ash, his flesh burned, turning inch by inch into crimson red, scattering into sparks.
Then, he exploded into pieces.
The protective talisman given by Nutian Shenzun was fused at the center of Zhang Ruochen's chest.
Struck by this destructive force, the protective talisman instantly became as bright as the light of the self-detonating divine source. Billions of divine patterns surged out, wrapping his entire body.
When a Great Unbound Infinite self-detonates their divine source, within a hundred million li, it becomes a zone of extinction where even Heaven-Repairing Realm gods cannot survive.
Those seven ancient powerhouses were only several hundred thousand li away, still attacking the realm-protecting grand formation. Faced with this sudden变故, they had no time to escape.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
The remnant souls of five ancient powerhouses burst like bubbles, turning into soul mist.
The soul mist was then swept by the destructive force toward the surrounding starry sky.
Soon, all were annihilated.
Chang He was farther away, over a million li distant, and had a brief moment to react. But just as he took one Divine Spirit Step, his physical body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, following the fate of the five ancient powerhouses' remnant souls.
Fei Ma Wang was even farther, at one million six hundred thousand li away.
She had more reaction time and her cultivation was far superior to Chang He's. Therefore, in an instant, she pulled another million li away, reaching three million li.
Even so, Fei Ma Wang's divine body burst apart, turning into a crystalline pink skeleton, which was then swept by the destructive force into the Void World.
Empty Nether Realm was a million li below. Its realm-protecting grand formation was already precarious, covered in countless cracks.
"Crackle!"
Struck by this destructive force, the cracks expanded at a visible rate.
Nie Zang Venerable, lying in a pool of blood, his face changed dramatically. His divine heart ignited directly, and centered on him, the ground outside White Clothes Valley turned into a blue flame domain. His spiritual power frantically poured into the realm-protecting grand formation. No matter what, he had to block the first wave of the divine source explosion.
Otherwise, Empty Nether Realm would be finished!
Yan Shu Chan Master glared with furious eyes, holding a golden Zen staff, and said: "White Clothes Valley cultivators, ascend the sky with me to protect Empty Nether Realm. This time, none of us can afford to lose!"
"Ten Thousand Buddha Formation rises, White Clothes Valley emerges."
After Zhang Ruochen was captured by Kui Liang Huang, they had all been waiting for Zhang Ruochen to release War God Ming Zun's divine source, naturally knowing how terrifyingly destructive a Great Unbound Infinite's self-detonation outside the realm would be. Therefore, they had long prepared.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Forest bloomed with bright silver-white light, carrying the entire White Clothes Valley as it soared into the sky, spreading out within the atmosphere.
In the valley, all temples erupted with golden Buddha light.
Bronze Buddha bells rang, diamond wooden fish sounded.
Ten thousand scrolls of scriptures turned, one hundred thousand Buddha cultivators chanted Zen.
The light shadows of Yin Xue Tian, Sixth Patriarch, and Nutian Shenzun all appeared, each a thousand li tall, like divine pillars supporting heaven and earth.
Every Shutuoan White Silver Tree grew to ten thousand meters tall, bearing giant Buddhas thousands of meters high, forming a formation to bear the brunt of the destructive force falling from beyond the sky.
Outside White Clothes Valley, below the stone steps, a layer of earth was peeled away.
Two footprints manifested, then extended to the right, as if an invisible person was walking.
These footprints completed a full circle, surrounding White Clothes Valley.
Nie Zang Venerable sensed the aura of these footprints, looked up at the sky, and laughed with a chuckle: "It's him, it's his power protecting White Clothes Valley!"
Each footprint contained ancestral divine power, radiating nine-colored light.
An ancestor was so supremely powerful, beyond measure. Before his death, he had walked a circle with his footprints to protect White Clothes Valley for ten eons. Even now, it possessed power unimaginable to gods.
"Boom!"
Empty Nether Realm's realm-protecting grand formation was ultimately destroyed.
Most of the destructive force landed on the Shutuoan White Silver Trees, White Clothes Valley, and the ancestral footprints.
White Clothes Valley was like a shield, blocking the attack from beyond the sky.
This shocking turn of events caused Lei Fa Tianzun and Nutian Shenzun to stop fighting, both looking toward Empty Nether Realm.
The calm and confidence in Lei Fa Tianzun's eyes disappeared. Everything had slipped out of control. Even with his cultivation, he felt a sense of helplessness.
Nutian Shenzun, upon seeing the footprints left by Immovable Bright King Great Venerable, set aside all his worries. He sighed inwardly, thinking that if Yin Xue Tian knew the Great Venerable had left power to protect her all these years, perhaps the resentment in her heart would not be so deep.
Ordinary footprints would not have such power.
These were one step, one imprint; one step, one divine ability.
The destructive force gradually subsided.
The Primordial Lamp floated in the shattered void, emitting a faint blue light.
Around the lamp, strands of bright white light marks twisted and condensed in the void, reforming Kui Liang Huang's body.
Even a Great Unbound Infinite self-detonating their divine source right next to him had only destroyed his physical body; his spiritual power remained unextinguished.
"Haha! Fulu, you old schemer, you've finally shown your true colors. Take this!"
Void Heaven's laughter came from the Void World.
No sword was visible, but Kui Liang Huang sensed countless sword qi flying out from the Void World, heading straight for him.
It was the Void Sword Dao!
The sword hidden in the void, the sword within nothingness.
Reality and illusion were indistinguishable, ever-changing.
Unless one's spiritual power reached the ninetieth rank and their divine soul reached the indestructible level, they could not sense the sword's existence and would die silently.
Such was the terror of the Void Sword Dao. Cultivators below the level of All Heavens had no way to escape.
"Leave!"
Kui Liang Huang carried the Primordial Lamp, not bothering to search for Zhang Ruochen. With a thought, he crossed ten million li.
"Shua!"
Void Heaven also crossed ten million li, appearing above Kui Liang Huang, his long hair fluttering, laughing: "Still trying to leave? It's been a long time since I've met an opponent I want to kill so badly. This Heaven has taken a liking to you!"
"Ding!"
In the starry sky, a bell rang explosively, as if vibrating rapidly.
The Earthly Demon Bell flew out, crashing straight toward Kui Liang Huang.
But before it could strike Kui Liang Huang, it was sent flying by the light of the Primordial Lamp.
"Where is the sword? Lend it to this Heaven for use."
Void Heaven looked at Kui Liang Huang, who was rapidly fleeing into the distance, and spread his five fingers of his right hand.
"Zheng!"
From beneath the ground of a primeval wild forest in Empty Nether Realm, the Seven Star Divine Sword shot up, breaking through space. In an instant, it appeared in Void Heaven's hand.
With the sword in hand, Void Heaven merged with the sword, turning into a streak of light chasing Kui Liang Huang. His speed grew faster and faster until he disappeared into the darkness.
Void Heaven was well aware that Kui Liang Huang had been severely wounded. This was a golden opportunity to keep him here.
Once he escaped, with his ninety-second rank spiritual power, he would be utterly pervasive and impossible to guard against. This would be even harder to deal with than Lei Fa Tianzun. At least Lei Fa Tianzun was still influenced by the Thunder Clan and had attachments in his heart.
Kui Liang Huang, who was moving swiftly, suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked ahead.
He saw space rotating ahead, and a blood-red Gate of Fate manifested from the center of the vortex, casting the dark universe in the color of blood.
"Shua! Shua! Shua..."
One divine artifact after another flew out from the Gate of Fate.
There was a bell as large as a star, a tower suppressing a sea of corpses, a rusted halberd...
"Feng Caiyi, do you dare block my path?"
Kui Liang Huang knew he could not delay here. Once Xu Fengjin caught up, escaping would become difficult.
In Kui Liang Huang's pupils, dense yellow divine talismans flew out, clashing with the divine artifacts ahead.
Then, he changed direction, shooting straight upward into Lihentian.
With Xu Fengjin around, escaping through the Void World would be difficult. Only Lihentian remained.
Lihentian's heaven and earth rules were strange, its space-time structure unpredictable and hard to calculate. Once he put enough distance between them, he could escape.
Just as Kui Liang Huang broke through space and entered the colorful Lihentian.
Above, Feng Tian was already waiting, holding the Auspicious Ruyi, flying straight toward Kui Liang Huang at maximum speed.
Clearly, Feng Tian knew the weakness of those with Heaven Round Earth Lack cultivation. As long as she closed the distance, she could increase her advantage.
Battle most tempers one's will. As the Death God Venerable, Feng Tian had walked out of one bloody battle after another over the past million-plus years, stepping over the bones of countless great worlds. In terms of the number of battles fought, Nutian Shenzun, Xu Fengjin, and Kui Liang Huang combined could not match her.
As long as she was not in seclusion, she never missed any major event in the universe. She participated in every battle.
In terms of research into combat techniques and divine abilities, she was definitely not inferior to any cultivator in the world.
Death does not extinguish; slaughter never ceases.
Even though Kui Liang Huang's spiritual power was formidable, he could not break through Feng Tian's spiritual will with his spiritual power alone.
Feng Tian swung the Auspicious Ruyi. Heavenly fate flower rain fell along with it, and countless fate traces emerged.
The Ruyi cut through like it was parting water, stirring up countless ripples.
"Boom!"
Kui Liang Huang pressed his palm on the Primordial Lamp.
Within the lamp, a drop of blood merged into the lamp oil.
In an instant, the pale blue lamp light turned blood red.
Feng Tian's strike cut through seventeen layers of lamp radiance but was stopped by the final layer.
Then, she was sent flying backward at high speed. Only by using the Gate of Fate did she neutralize the impact force, stabilizing herself a million li away.
"Blood of the Fate Ancestor. You found the Fate Ancestor's tomb?" Feng Tian said.
"Good! The Primordial Lamp is a fine treasure. This Heaven has been lacking a spiritual power war weapon. It's mine!"
Void Heaven arrived, swinging his sword in a slash.
Kui Liang Huang only gave Void Heaven a cold glare without a word, then flew toward a higher level of Lihentian.
