Chapter 1295: Chapter 1294: After the Heaven Challenge, Your King Has Returned

“Locktrap.”

As those iron chains came from all directions, Xu Zimei remained unperturbed.

He slowly extended his right hand, and the Finger of Heaven-Swallowing Creation, one of the ten Divine Methods, emerged.

The power of Creation, the ability to swallow the heavens.

A stream of light appeared at the fingertip, above which endless purifying brilliance shimmered.

Before the finger even extended, the surrounding void had completely collapsed.

The gaze of the entire world seemed to focus on this single finger, with all the Spiritual Energy converging ceaselessly.

Any of the iron chains that approached were completely annihilated within.

The closest point to the fingertip formed a shadowy semblance of a Black Hole, deep and boundless, capable of devouring everything.

Old Demon Wei’s face was stricken with shock, all the chains entangled together, forming a shield shape.

Immediately, his figure retreated violently.

However, regardless of his speed, how could it surpass the power of the Heaven-Swallowing Creation?

The fingertip seemed to be a ray of light shot out, coming at light speed yet imperceptible to the Flesh Eye.

Directly pierced through the chain shield, entering Old Demon Wei’s forehead.

A bloody hole appeared, and Old Demon Wei’s figure fell lifelessly to the ground.

But at the next moment, his Divine Soul began to roar, trying to escape, yet the Heaven-Swallowing power still suppressed it.

“Are you all just watching? Hurry and help me,” Old Demon Wei’s voice rang out.

The others from the Heavenly Dragon Empire finally reacted.

But before these people could take action, the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor had already made his move.

With a gesture of his right hand, all the fruit delicacies floated in the void, then shot out.

Even a small grape could emanate immense energy, able to Pierce the Heavens completely.

“A Great Saint?” Xu Zimei cast a surprising glance.

“Just a Semi-Saint,” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor chuckled, shaking his head.

“The path of a Saint is like the Other Shore, unreachable, yet we fools strive to pursue it.”

Though he spoke humbly, even a Semi-Saint, when related to a Saint, was already remarkable.

A few grapes still had the power to completely Pierce the Heavens, instantly enveloping Xu Zimei.

“Without intent to fight, please don’t trouble my subjects,” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor laughed.

He waved his right hand again, seemingly a dragon’s roar sounded, erasing Xu Zimei’s Heaven-Swallowing power.

And Old Demon Wei’s Divine Soul was able to break free, swiftly floating in the void, beginning to re-refine a body.

In truth, at their level, the physical body was merely a shell; it is the Divine Soul that truly needs cultivation.

Feeling the Heavenly Dao through the Divine Soul, reaching straight towards the heavens.

Xu Zimei did not stop him, instead observing the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor with interest.

The Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor was indeed profoundly concealed.

He smiled and said, “If you truly don’t have the Dragon Beach Grass, I’ll seek it elsewhere.”

“Let the Great Elder of Haotian Sect come up.”

For the moment, no one dared to target Xu Zimei any further, especially since even Old Demon Wei had fallen at his hands.

Ge Changyun beside him felt somewhat fortunate, glad he hadn’t offended Xu Zimei.

Seeing Old Demon Wei’s re-coalesced body, Xu Zimei asked, “Where is the main base of the Demon Race now?”

“If you have the ability, come to my Demon Realm,” Old Demon Wei replied.

“I will go to the Demon Realm, but still say this: deliver a message to your two ancestors.”

Xu Zimei said, “Even if there’s a meeting, it should be them meeting me.

Rather than me going to meet them.”

“What message?” Old Demon Wei began to reassess Xu Zimei’s words.

“After Heaven Challenge, their king returned,” Xu Zimei said word by word.

“All grudges, and the unfinished visions, will continue.”

“I will pass it on,” Old Demon Wei pondered for a moment, then responded.

“I might go to Haotian Sect for a period, let them come to Haotian Sect to see me,” Xu Zimei said.

Listening to Xu Zimei’s somewhat arrogant tone, Old Demon Wei held back his displeasure and did not respond further.

……

The sound of footsteps came from within the stairs.

The crowd withdrew their gaze, all looking towards the stairs.

Led by guards, an elder in a Yin-Yang Dual-Polarity Robe walked up with a smile.

The robe continuously fluttered with the breeze.

“Greetings to Your Majesty the Martial Emperor,” the elder slightly bowed, offering a greeting.

Typically, anyone seeing the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor would definitely need to kneel.

But owing to the transcendent status of Haotian Sect, the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor did not demand high requirements.

“May I know what brings Elder Bi to my Heavenly Dragon Empire?” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor asked indifferently.

“I heard recently that the Vast State and Dragon Country had a dispute, my visit is to mediate,” Elder Bi said with a smile.

“First, grant Elder Bi a seat,” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor motioned, unwilling to show negligence.

“A dispute, is there such a thing? I wasn’t aware,” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor said in surprise.

He turned to look at the nearby ministers, asking, “Who recently had a dispute with the Vast State?”

“Report to Your Majesty, there’s no such thing,” a nearby minister quickly replied.

“For years, we’ve usually maintained good relations with the Vast State, trade flows smoothly, and many have married and had children.

Almost like one family, how could there be a dispute.”

“Is that so,” the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor nodded with satisfaction, smiling.

“Elder Bi, did you hear that? Where did your information come from?”

Watching the pair test each other, Xu Zimei sat down nearby out of boredom.

He looked at Wu Zhaodi, asking, “What’s the background of Haotian Sect?”

“The forces of the Southern Domain are actually easy to divide.

The Heavenly Dragon Empire, Vast State, including the Tianluan Immortal Palace, are all of the same level.”

Wu Zhaodi explained, “But Haotian Sect, a long time ago, was actually the same.

Except in the past millennium, within Haotian Sect, just the Great Saints, two emerged.

Along with the original Great Saints, they have at least three Great Saints in their sect.

With such growth in development, in recent years, Haotian Sect has vaguely become the largest sect in the Southern Domain.”

Xu Zimei nodded slightly.

“It’s said that hundreds of years ago, Haotian Sect received the edict of the Demon Race, ordered to manage the entire Southern Domain,” Wu Zhaodi continued.

“So actually, on the surface, the forces of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, have to some extent, receive constraints from Haotian Sect.”

“Do you know much about Haotian Sect?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Why?” Wu Zhaodi countered.

“Have you ever heard of Qi Haoran?” Xu Zimei asked.

“The First Swordsman Qi Haoran?” Wu Zhaodi exclaimed.

“How could I have not heard? In the whole Southern Domain, I’m afraid few people don’t know him.”

“Is he also from Haotian Sect?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Certainly, Haotian Sect’s current scale owes half its merits to him,” Wu Zhaodi nodded.

“His story is quite long, if we have time, I’ll tell it to you slowly.”

Xu Zimei nodded, calming his mind, continuing to listen to Elder Bi and the Heavenly Dragon Martial Emperor’s conversation.

“The Martial Emperor hasn’t heard yet, the General of Vast State was killed,” Elder Bi responded.
