Chapter 292: Tenjin Hōji

Chapter 292: Tenjin Hōji

The magnificent palaces collapsed one after another amidst the brilliant flames, as figures soared into the sky one after another.

Everywhere, severed limbs were splattered about.

Crown Prince Ziyang looked back and, amidst the brilliant aftermath of the explosion, saw a familiar figure. "Mother is flying in the sky!?"

The Ziyang Guards stationed outside the imperial walls, the palace maids and eunuchs inside, and even the concubines of the harem were not spared.

All of them suffered a great calamity in the self-destruction of the black and white Qi.

Indeed, these black and white Qi that had shot out were far inferior to the Black and White Duo, and their strength was not top-tier.

But, having been planned for a long time, the power of the explosion had multiplied countless times.

Not to mention that this strange power, one black and one white, intertwined to produce a miraculous reaction.

In an instant, it was as if the entire Ziyang Empire imperial palace had been plowed over by thunder and fire!

"Your Majesty!" "Save me!" "Father Emperor, your child does not want to die yet..."

The entire Ziyang imperial palace turned into a chaotic mess, with wails rising one after another.

Great Emperor Ziyang was furious. "How bold!"

With just a roar, the sound waves shook the heavens. The visible sound waves spread out, and even those as strong as the Saint King Realm staggered and fell, blood spilling from their mouths, suffering heavy injuries.

He formed a fist seal, seemingly brewing with Dao, and as if the power of thunder and fire was accumulating in the dark. He threw a punch.

In the direction of the Black and White Duo, the space was blasted into collapse. The two were like being bound within copper walls and iron barriers; unable to escape, they could only resist head-on.

That strange black and white tornado reappeared, fearlessly meeting Great Emperor Ziyang's fist seal. Boom—

The heaven-destroying aftermath raged throughout the Ziyang Imperial Capital. Within a radius of several hundred miles, countless buildings collapsed.

These princes and dukes, who were closest to the imperial city, held the highest status, and possessed the purest Ziyang Imperial Family Bloodline, some did not even know what had happened. They were torn asunder and turned into ashes amidst the extremely dazzling light.

"Who on earth are you two?!" Great Emperor Ziyang stood immovable as a mountain, glaring at the Black and White Duo, wondering where these two dead old monsters had popped out from.

Blech! Black spat out a large mouthful of black blood, mixed with fragments of internal organs. White staggered to Black's back and pressed his hand against his back, and the breath visibly stabilized. Instead, it was Black who coughed violently again, almost coughing out his own two kidneys.

White had an angry look on his face as he coldly snorted, "Great Emperor Ziyang, you are full of evil and your demonic claws have reached across the entire Hongmeng Continent. Those who have suffered because of you are countless. We, the Black and White Duo, are acting on behalf of Heaven. The people you want to kill, we will not let you kill, and the people you want to save, we will make sure they die!"

Qin Xuan, sitting on the flying treasure, glanced at Luo Xianxian and asked curiously, "Who are these two? Why do I feel like they are a bit familiar?"

"They are the Black and White Duo, you don't even recognize them?" Luo Xianxian was shocked. "These two old monsters actually killed the Old Ancestor of the Ziyang Empire back in the day! However, the Black and White Duo vanished ten thousand years ago; I don't know why they have suddenly popped up now."

Qin Xuan cast the absurd thought in his mind to the back of his head. They had killed the Ziyang Old Ancestor and were already that powerful ten thousand years ago. Naturally, they could not be the two people he was thinking of.

"Ants, how dare you act presumptuously in front of this Emperor!" A dull, cold snort drew everyone's attention.

As Great Emperor Ziyang's thoughts arose, thick thunderclouds, like rolling giant waves, churned continuously above the Ziyang Imperial Capital. From within those thunderclouds, a one-hundred-thousand-foot-long thunder dragon, with two horns on its head, was coiled in brilliant, shining divine thunder. Its massive dragon head, like a Thunder God, looked down at the Black and White Duo below. Everyone who saw the thunder dragon was terrified.

"This is the ultimate move from when Great Emperor Ziyang was still the Crown Prince—Wrath of the Thunder God!" "Back then, when Great Emperor Ziyang was only in the Saint King Realm, he relied on this move to kill a Quasi-Emperor." "Now, that illusory Thunder God figure has turned into the master of the thunder domain; even if an Emperor Realm expert took this hit, they would surely die!" Countless old monsters in the Ziyang Imperial Capital gazed at the thunder dragon in the high sky, trembling. It was as if they remembered the dark years when they were young and arrogant and were dominated by it!

Black raised his eyes and looked at the awe-inspiring thunder dragon, muttering to himself, "I don't know if I can hold it off!" White coldly snorted, "Even if you can't hold it, you have to. This is our destiny, and it is the debt we owe!"

Roar— The thunder dragon was enraged. With a flick of its dragon tail, the thick thunderclouds exploded in an instant. It was as if the heavens had been shattered by this tail. Just by being locked on by the killing intent, Black was constantly spitting out blood. He was already heavily injured and could no longer put up a desperate struggle. They had caught Great Emperor Ziyang off guard earlier, but now Great Emperor Ziyang had reacted. Even if his and White's black and white Qi were pure, they could not bridge the huge chasm between them and Great Emperor Ziyang.

"Go!" The Black and White Duo raised their hands, and their intertwined black and white Qi pushed against the giant lotus petals, helping them break through the air! Great Emperor Ziyang used his hand as a blade and slashed down from the air. That space was cut from the middle, divided into two, and the black and white Qi was severed, losing its follow-up strength.

"Today, neither of your groups will be able to leave the Ziyang Imperial Capital alive!" Great Emperor Ziyang coldly snorted, and the thunder dragon, like an apocalypse, whistled and dived straight towards Qin Xuan and his group and the Black and White Duo. Countless thunderbolts exploded around the thunder dragon. Wherever this thunder dragon appeared, it became an endless thunder domain. Not to mention the Saint King Realm or Quasi-Emperor, even an Emperor Realm expert would have no chance of survival before this thunder dragon.

"Great Emperor Ziyang, you have crossed the line!" With a muffled grunt, space was torn apart. A Celestial God Clan powerhouse, covered in milky white holy radiance, appeared like a Heavenly God descending. His body was so massive that it touched the sky and stood on the earth. He raised his hand and clenched it, and the thunder dragon in his palm, like a small loach, was crushed and exploded on the spot.

"Daddy!" "It's my Daddy who has arrived!" "We are saved!" In the group of three huddled together, Luo Xianxian let go of Su Youyu and Luo Xinyi's hands and waved at the Celestial Race Patriarch. "Daddy, I'm here! Great Emperor Ziyang is too much; he not only wants to kill Qin Xuan, but he doesn't even plan to spare your daughter!"

The Celestial Race Patriarch raised his hand and crushed the thunder dragon, looking down at Great Emperor Ziyang below. "Does your Ziyang Empire truly have the power to contend with my Celestial God Clan?"

"Old thing, you have been showing off for so long; it is time for your Celestial God Clan to fall from the altar!" Great Emperor Ziyang was extremely violent, transforming into an imperial rainbow and charging straight at the Celestial Race Patriarch. The two powerhouses in the Emperor Realm collided hundreds of thousands of times within a single breath above the Nine Heavens! The heaven and earth were beaten until they cracked, and the broken Law power of this ruin shone brilliantly. The cracks on the Dao were becoming increasingly dense.

"So strong!" "Great Emperor Ziyang and the Celestial Race Patriarch are both powerful to an awe-inspiring degree." "Against these two Emperors, even if I relied on the styx purple ice crystal, I would have absolutely no chance of winning." Inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower, Leng Li watched the chaotic battle between Great Emperor Ziyang and the Celestial Race Patriarch, feeling somewhat dazed. Not to mention being an enemy, even if she were near the battlefield, she would be blown away by the aftermath and suffer heavy injuries.

In the reflection of Qin Xuan's eyes, brilliant light flickered continuously. Even he could hardly keep up with the figures of these two Emperors. He muttered to himself, "Truly strong. The more stubborn Great Emperor Ziyang is, and the more he doesn't want me to go to the God Ruins, the more it means that the Opportunity in the God Ruins is profound." "The grudge between him and me has reached a point where he cannot sit still, and he is determined to kill me!"

Luo Xianxian patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, with my Daddy here, even Great Emperor Ziyang cannot touch a single hair on you!" "If our Celestial God Clan were really inferior to the Ziyang Empire, we would have been razed to the ground by the Ziyang Empire eight thousand years ago!"

Su Youyu pointed in the direction of the Celestial Race Patriarch and said with a trembling voice, "But, half of your dad's head has been blown off."

Luo Xianxian turned her head and looked at her father in the Nine Heavens, whose half head had been shattered by Great Emperor Ziyang, and wailed miserably, "Daddy!"

Boom! A thunder dragon whistled and pierced through the Celestial Race Patriarch's body from his chest. As the thunder dragon exploded, the Celestial Race Patriarch's figure also vanished. Great Emperor Ziyang looked at the fragment of the celestial god edict left in the high sky and coldly snorted, "Relying on the celestial god edict, you could only last a hundred moves against this Emperor. Your Celestial God Clan is, after all, becoming increasingly desolate!"

The Celestial Race Patriarch appeared again, this time his true self. He did not make another move. Knowing that he was not a match for Great Emperor Ziyang, he just waved his hand. Sheets of celestial god edicts, like scrolls covering the sky, appeared above the Ziyang Imperial Capital, row upon row, totaling over a hundred.

"Then we shall see whether you kill me first, or if my Celestial God Clan edicts destroy your Ziyang Empire first!"

Great Emperor Ziyang witnessed the row upon row of celestial god edicts, which were suffused with holy radiance. He did not attack again, but coldly snorted, and his figure disappeared from the spot. Only a magnificent voice resonated, "My son, there are countless Opportunities in the God Ruins, do not miss them."

"I will obey Father Emperor's edict!" Crown Prince Ziyang bowed towards the depths of the imperial palace, haughtily shot towards the flying treasure, landed lightly on the lotus petals that had withered down to only a few pieces, looked at Luo Xianxian, and urged, "Father Emperor has already let your Celestial God Clan off the hook. Let's go, take this Crown Prince to the God Ruins!"

Luo Xianxian clenched her small fists, gnashing her teeth in hatred. "This bastard! Does he think our Celestial God Clan is part of their Ziyang Empire territory, to be bossed around by him?"

The Celestial Race Patriarch was a clean-faced scholar. He lacked the bulk of that dharma form and did not have that kind of vicissitudes. He looked as young as a youth, like an older brother to Luo Xianxian. He shook his head and said, "Xianxian, there is no need to be angry with him. The God Ruins is a major matter."

"The current Great Emperor Ziyang is no longer what he used to be; he has the means to compete with my Celestial God Clan." "I do not know what kind of Opportunity he obtained to make such great progress. This kind of Heaven-Defying power to tear apart a celestial god edict with his bare hands is likely enough to rank in the top hundred of the imperial ranking even in the God Ruins." "To be at odds with such a Prodigy is already a loss for my Celestial God Clan. Let us not deepen the hatred."

He felt helpless. After all, the Celestial God Clan was on the decline. Not to mention in the God Ruins, even in this ruin, his Celestial God Clan would likely be unable to remain unscathed and stay out of trouble in the future. Great Emperor Ziyang, who could tear apart a celestial god edict with his bare hands, and Empress Mingyue, who could force back Great Emperor Ziyang with one palm. The rulers of these two giant nations were already so strong that his Celestial God Clan needed to face them squarely.

Crown Prince Ziyang had regained his past pride. The embarrassing history at the Butian Holy Land had become the past and would never be repeated. He narrowed his pale golden eyes, glared at Qin Xuan, and coldly said, "Qin Xuan, you and I will decide the winner in the God Ruins." "This Crown Prince will let you know just how insurmountable the future Emperor of my Ziyang Empire is."

Seeing Qin Xuan step forward, Luo Xianxian grabbed his hand and shook her head. "This is the Ziyang Imperial Capital, don't be angry with him. Great Emperor Ziyang is different now; even my Celestial God Clan has no way to contain him."

The Celestial Race Patriarch nodded calmly. "This Zi Wuji is already in the Middle Stage of the Quasi-Emperor Realm and has learned the Ziyang Imperial Family's Taotie Treasure Art. His combat power is far from what it was that day."

"Him finding fault with your Celestial God Clan is none of my business." Qin Xuan broke free from Luo Xianxian's arm and sneered, "But him acting cool in front of me is my business."

With force under his feet, the next instant, Qin Xuan had already arrived in front of Crown Prince Ziyang. Almost subconsciously, Crown Prince Ziyang threw a punch, wanting to force Qin Xuan back. Qin Xuan grabbed Crown Prince Ziyang's wrist with one hand, and the power of sixty thousand Dragon-Elephant Strength roared out.

Crack— Crown Prince Ziyang's arm was forcibly shattered into eight hundred pieces under Qin Xuan's Dragon-Elephant Strength! "Do we still need to enter the God Ruins?" "Right now, we can decide the winner!" Qin Xuan smashed a fist towards Crown Prince Ziyang's face, and accompanied by a loud bang, the lotus petals shook. By the time Qin Xuan withdrew his fist, the features on Crown Prince Ziyang's face had already collapsed inward.

Three Thousand Dragon Flame burned violently on his face, and the Nirvana Fire prevented the Bloodline Power within Crown Prince Ziyang from repairing his injuries. Qin Xuan turned and left. Behind him, Crown Prince Ziyang, like a stiff corpse, fell straight backward.

"In front of me, what are you acting cool for?" Qin Xuan shook his head, bored. Middle Stage of the Quasi-Emperor Realm? Even if a Peak Quasi-Emperor came, he would not be afraid at all. Great Emperor Ziyang is awesome, what does that have to do with him? Anyway, he had already offended him to death. If he had the ability, he should tear up the Celestial Race Patriarch's celestial god edicts.

Rumble... Under the control of the Celestial Race Patriarch, the flying treasure jumped in place and crossed space. The Celestial Race Patriarch felt that if he didn't leave, he might not be able to leave!

As for the Black and White Duo and those little black and white minions? Seeing Qin Xuan smash Crown Prince Ziyang's features away with one punch, they all tightened their glutes and ran away wildly.

As the flying treasure jumped through the Void Realm continuously. After about a day and a night, in front of Qin Xuan and the others, finally, towering mountains shrouded in immortal mist appeared before them.

Two statues of the Celestial God Clan, like natural moats, guarded a floating Celestial God Clan territory, or perhaps it could be said, before the Secret Realm.

Qin Xuan looked at the two towering statues, and the terrifying aura he felt from them was actually not inferior to Great Emperor Ziyang at all.

"Are these two statues alive? What Realm are they!?" He turned to look at Luo Xianxian and the Celestial Race Patriarch.

The Celestial Race Patriarch smiled and replied, "Peak Emperor Realm, which is Peak Emperor Realm, the same Realm as Great Emperor Ziyang. They are the guards of the Celestial God Clan and cannot go out."
