Patrol Captain

The ice dragon descended from the sky, its body as large as a mountain range, spanning several miles. Its chilling aura almost froze the void. Each scale seemed to be carved from millennia-old ice, its edges gleaming with a bluish-white cold light. Layer upon layer, it trembled slightly in the swift wind of its descent, producing a crisp sound like the clash of metal.

Most terrifying were the edges of those scales, where sharp, blade-like ice had solidified, and the pupils churned with a cold ferocity. The ice armor around the eye sockets was concave, outlining a hideous silhouette.

The dragon claw descended, its tip curved like a hook, tearing a long crack in the void. Its earth-shattering power seemed to want to crush Chen Yuan and his gun together in its palm.

Chen Yuan was suddenly engulfed in karmic fire, and was struck by excruciating pain. His face contorted in agony, and he let out a muffled roar from his throat. He swung his spear forcefully at the dragon's claw.

With a loud "bang".

The surrounding ice and snow suddenly rippled, and the aftershocks created ripples in the void.

Chen Yuan's speed suddenly stopped, and wisps of black karmic fire emerged from the soaring golden blood energy, attempting to burn his blood and destroy his foundation.

at the same time,

"Ow"

The ice dragon let out a long roar, and several phantoms rushed out from its body, quickly solidified, split into two sides, and charged towards Chen Yuan's giant body, baring their fangs and claws, and fighting fiercely.

Chen Yuan's eyes were like stars. He snorted coldly, his breath like thunder. Golden light suddenly appeared in the void around him, creating a sky full of golden flowers, with beads hanging down in an endless stream, shining brightly and protecting his body.

Two ice dragons roared and reached out their claws, golden flowers blooming and spinning in the void, their patterns naturally formed, trembling only slightly. Then, the ice crystal dragon bodies coiled, their sharp, knife-like scales frantically cutting through the defense formed by the golden flowers, emitting a piercing noise, scattering brilliant sparks, and carrying a terrifying strangling force.

At the same time, within Chen Yuan's body, black karmic fire raged like a primordial beast, rushing into his Huangting and Niwan palaces.

The moment the karmic fire crashed into Chen Yuan's Niwan Palace, Chen Yuan's cloud sea exploded with a roar. Countless shrieks pierced his mind like steel needles, sometimes as shrill as a baby crying at night, sometimes as hoarse as an old ghost grinding its teeth, or as vengeful ghosts demanding his life.

Those he had slain, the phantoms of demons and monsters, rose from the fire, transforming into their hideous forms before death.

The decapitated Li family child held his bleeding head in his hands, black blood streaming from his eyes, crying out for his indiscriminate killing of innocent people;

The great demon, stripped of his bones and having his primordial spirit refined, roared in resentment, demanding that the demon pay with its life and never be reincarnated.

One after another, fierce phantoms roared and rushed towards the center of the sea of ​​clouds, emitting terrifying howls that covered the sky and the earth.

This is the most terrifying aspect of karmic fire. Burning the body is secondary; what is truly terrifying is that it triggers the karma one carries, allowing past causes and effects to kill the enemy here.

In the center of the sea of ​​clouds, atop the Azure Lotus Divine Flower, sat Chen Yuanyang, his eyes closed.

Around him, chains of divine Dao patterns spread from the Azure Lotus Flower and appeared around the Yang God, exuding extreme strength and yang energy.

The deadly shadows were blocked by the divine light, and those that got close were burned into wisps of smoke, yet they still swarmed forward relentlessly, tearing at the divine light barrier with frantic frenzy. The sound of fingernails scraping against the barrier was like a dull knife cutting bone, sending chills down one's spine.

The karmic fire flowed among the demonic shadows, making them flicker and become eerie and terrifying, as if the spirit of Yang was about to be dragged into the deepest hell by these vengeful ghosts at any moment.

The scene was horrific!

Right now.

“zheng”

A sharp, ringing sound suddenly rang out.

The Yang God suddenly opened his eyes, his golden light captivating, radiating pure and unyielding Yang energy. He gave a cold snort.
"You couldn't do anything to me when I was alive, but now that I'm dead and my soul is gone, do you still think you can turn the world upside down?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yuanyang's spirit trembled, and like a diamond body, he emitted a resounding bell-like sound.

Innate Dao patterns densely covered Yang Shen's body. The extremely strong aura that was originally suppressed by karmic fire instantly soared into the sky, the laws flowed, and then a large cyan-gold tower emerged from the surface of his body with a loud bang.

The Demon-Suppressing Tower reverberated with terrifying Daoist sounds, instantly shattering the demonic shadows and karmic fire that clung to it like maggots. At the same time, the sea of ​​clouds roared and churned violently.

"puff"

"puff"

"puff"

All karmic obstacles and demonic influences were swept away by the sea of ​​clouds and vanished.

The aftershocks rippled down, and the Daoist chants within his body roared, spreading to every part of his body. The raging black karmic fire was completely dispersed.

The scorched areas, after being washed away by the thick, golden blood energy, recovered quickly. The flesh furnace, which was originally filled with evil energy, now had many furnace openings that emitted brilliant, colorful light, like a temple, each performing its own function to nourish the innate Yang God.

All laws are fused together to forge the primordial spirit and the Dao fruit, which is then suppressed by the tower. All laws cannot penetrate it, and it possesses an indestructible body that is difficult for any law to destroy.

And this seemingly long process is all generated in the blink of an eye.

They clashed in an instant, their unpredictable and breathtaking skills leaving everyone on the edge of their seats.

Chen Yuan's frozen physical body instantly became whole again. A surge of golden blood energy erupted, unleashing a tremendous thunderous sound. The muscles in his arms trembled, extending to his hands, while golden light blazed fiercely in his eyes.

"Break it for me!"

The spear let out a long cry.

In an instant, the ice dragon's body, which was coiled and constricting, began to crackle with a series of sharp, cracking sounds, and beams of golden light shot out.

Then, with a loud "bang," it exploded, turning into countless ice crystals.

Amidst the cracking of ice crystals, Chen Yuan's hair danced wildly, his eyes filled with murderous intent, as he continued to soar into the sky. In an instant, his surroundings transformed from an icy world into a desolate forest of yellow leaves. The falling leaves carried a chilling aura, and amidst the fluttering yellow leaves, an invisible killing intent emanated. In the void, invisible traces caused ripples, like waves on the surface of water, hidden behind the falling leaves, before suddenly appearing and attacking Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan swept his spear, and the clanging and clattering sounds were as dense as rain, sparks flying everywhere.

His gaze was fierce. This supernatural power was a creation of heaven, changing at will, and its killing intent was invisible. One could not be trapped in it for long.

But he was not afraid.

If Heaven sends a murderous intent, he will do it too.

With a flick of his spear, he scattered the yellow leaves that followed it, then shook it toward the starry sky, causing the heavens to chill and the void to tremble violently.

The falling yellow leaves transformed into a giant vortex.

"Shifting Stars and Changing Constellations!"

As the four characters fell, the stars in the sky shone brightly, and the distant starry sky was instantly brought closer and became incredibly clear.

The Big Dipper was the first to break away from its unchanging position, the Dubhe star trailed a pale purple tail as it sank westward, and the Alkaid star raced against the ecliptic. The original dipper-shaped star chart was forcibly torn into a twisted chain.

Immediately afterwards, the starry sky resembled a chessboard overturned by a giant hand of the heavens, with the stars shining brightly for a moment, their light growing increasingly intense, even igniting into flames.

They broke free from the starry sky and plummeted from the heavens. In an instant, a deafening roar erupted, as if the sky itself had collapsed.

The wind in the sky suddenly stopped, then turned into a swirling gale that pressed down sharply, as if the entire sky had been suddenly lowered.

At this moment, countless stars fell from the sky, as if the heavens were collapsing, and fire poured down, creating a scene resembling the end of the world.

This deadly art of life and death, which seemed to unleash its murderous intent from the heavens, only now revealed a glimpse of its sinister nature. Below, in Chengdu, countless people's eyes widened, feeling as if the air around them had tightened, as if someone were gripping their necks, making it hard to breathe and suffocating them.

The entire city of Chengdu was shaking. Under this tremendous force of heaven and earth, it was like a small boat tossed about in a storm, and some buildings even collapsed.

"asshole"

"This is the legendary Star-Shifting Technique, he knows it too?"

"Does he really want to destroy Chengdu?!"

At that moment, in some void, a voice filled with surprise and anger rang out.

Then, a beam of blue light flew out from it; it was a blue umbrella, which seemed extremely heavy, causing the air to explode.

The umbrella shot rapidly toward the sky above Chengdu, the Daoist patterns engraved on its ribs lighting up continuously as it flew. When it reached the center of the city, the umbrella suddenly emitted a deafening buzzing sound.

In an instant, the umbrella expanded at an astonishing speed, with the nine ribs extending into eighty-one, each like a jade-carved pillar stretching across the sky. The umbrella surface transformed into a giant curtain that covered the sky, with the totems of the sun, moon, and stars rapidly flowing on the pale blue fabric. As the powerful aura swirled, it actually managed to prop up a corner of the sky.

Immediately afterwards, wisps of azure energy flew out from the umbrella ribs. At first, they were as thin as gossamer threads, but in an instant, they transformed into galloping dragons, shooting towards all directions of Chengdu and landing on the four city walls. Then, eighty-one azure lights gathered together, forming a Hunyuan Azure Light Array.

As the formation protected Chengdu, stars and fire fell from the sky, crashing down upon the two celestial beings who looked down upon the city like gods and demons.

The two celestial beings looked equally surprised and suspicious. How could the Martial Saint activate such a life-and-death technique? There must be something wrong with it. They then roared in anger.

The three-headed, six-armed celestial being trembled, producing a loud clang. Radiant halos, intricately patterned, appeared around its body. Then, with furrowed brows and angry eyes, its six arms, like pillars supporting the sky, danced wildly towards the celestial fire.

With each strike, the halo appeared in front of his hand, making a loud clanging sound.

The other celestial being used the Great Void Technique, tearing the void with both hands, creating a black hole spanning tens of miles, which swallowed all the flowing fire, and the black hole grew larger and larger.

In the blink of an eye, the two celestial beings were bombarded by the falling star, and the heavens were directly shattered. The shattered fire was like blood from the sky, flowing down and falling towards the earth below.

Outside Chengdu, the river flowed down, hills crumbled, and the earth cracked.

Inside Chengdu, the Hunyuan Azure Umbrella spun, the great formation surged, and falling starlight collided with it, exploding into tiny sparks.

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

The blue light vibrated, shattering all the scattered sparks.

At this moment, Chengdu looked as if it were inverted on a giant jade bowl. The blue mist hanging from the edge of the umbrella connected with the city wall to form a semi-transparent light cover. The booming sound of starlight hitting it only highlighted the strange silence inside the city.

Countless people looked up at the giant umbrella suspended in the clouds, watching the swirling blue mist on its surface weave into a net that blocked all the stray sparks. After finally letting out a sigh of relief, they were still overwhelmed by the shocking scene, their hearts surging with emotion and unable to find peace.

Is this the might of the Martial Saint?

Countless eyes focused on that towering figure, wielding a long spear, breaking through the swirling yellow leaves, shooting towards the heavens; their hearts surged with emotion.

Beyond the heavens, Chen Yuan seized the opportunity to break through the celestial being's killing intent and charged towards the celestial being despite the fierce winds.

At this moment, the two celestial beings finally looked at Chen Yuan directly. They sensed a dangerous aura. Because the mortal miasma had not been completely washed away, they were rejected by this world, and their strength was suppressed by the Heavenly Dao of this place. They could not linger for too long.

Now, they are actually being held back by the opponent's deadly killing technique, which has made them eager to lift the restrictions.

"Join forces to trigger divine punishment and kill him!"

Thunder rumbled across the sky.

The celestial being, consumed by karmic fire, glared with ferocious white fiery eyes, spewing two streams of sparks like waterfalls from its nostrils. Without further hesitation, it surveyed everything with an indifferent and icy gaze.

"The Martial Saint of this place."

"If you force me to break free of the shackles of heaven and earth, then you will stop here!"

"Before the void is shattered, you will see me as if you were seeing the blue sky."

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes widened suddenly, and he stomped his foot, causing the sky to tremble and his giant body to blaze with flames.

"boom"

The void around him shattered like a broken mirror, creating layers of storms that extinguished the falling fire from the starry sky.

Then, this celestial being let out a thunderous roar from its throat, its massive muscles twitching and writhing like a dragon, and its whole body bursting with a violent aura. Then, the clanging of metal against metal echoed between heaven and earth.

Then, a horrifying scene unfolded.

Then, colorful divine chains appeared, extending from the chaotic void until they embedded themselves into the body of this celestial being.

Those were the divine runes of the Great Dao that suppressed celestial beings in this world. Profound runes flowed on the chains, each inch embedded in the flesh of the celestial being, and even entangled his primordial spirit.

This celestial being was like a colossal demon standing between heaven and earth, struggling against the chains that suppressed him.

Suddenly, a roar that shook the entire world erupted from its throat.

He thrust his arms skyward, and as his muscles bulged, the first shackle suddenly blazed with a blinding red light. The runes on its surface flickered wildly, yet spiderweb-like cracks appeared under its violent power.

With a loud "crack," like glass shattering, the first chain of Dao patterns broke in the middle, turning into countless fireflies and dissipating.

The celestial being's aura surged dramatically, causing the already burning sea of ​​clouds below to surge with waves stretching for hundreds of miles.

Immediately afterwards, the second and third shackles began to hum under the strain.

The Dao patterns condensed from the laws of heaven and earth began to distort and fade, and the cracks on the surface of the chains spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the seventh shackle broke, the aura of this celestial being erupted like a volcano that had been dormant for ten thousand years. The blazing flames broke through the stars and illuminated thousands of miles of void, turning a large part of the sky into a blazing day.

In many places, such as Anqing Prefecture and Baima Prefecture north of Chengdu.
Or perhaps it was Zhennan Prefecture, which was further south.

There, skeletons rose from the city walls, gazing at the distant sky, the intense firelight reflecting the flickering eerie flames in their eye sockets.

The scene returns to Chengdu, beyond the city walls.

"Boom——"

Thunder roared from the heavens, not just a few scattered claps, but ten thousand bolts of lightning roaring simultaneously.

The purplish-black tribulation clouds gathered in an instant, obscuring the entire sky. Lightning snakes danced wildly within the clouds, each several meters thick, carrying the power to tear through space, transforming into a lightning net covering thousands of miles, with innate Dao patterns flashing at the mesh.

The celestial beings broke free of their shackles, triggering divine punishment!

The bronze-colored celestial being looked up at the lightning net, its eyes blazing with fire, then glanced down and grinned menacingly. (End of Chapter)
