Daqin Zhentiansi

Zhang Yuan's eyes were icy cold, and the power of his Chaotic God-Demon Body erupted with a roar.

Dark gold patterns flow beneath the skin, resisting shock and the corrosive effects of poison.

Instead of retreating, he advanced, and the bone spear in his hand burst forth with a dazzling light!
"Burn the heavens, purify the world!"

With a sudden flap of its divine wings, a raging torrent of dark purple divine fire swept out like a world-destroying flood!

The seven-colored poisonous net ignites upon contact, turning to ashes.

The viscous, poisonous miasma was instantly evaporated and purified, revealing the canyon's true appearance.

The falling boulders were like snowballs thrown into a furnace, melting into lava and dripping down before they even got close!

The domineering purification power of the Burning Heaven Creation Scripture instantly tore open the domain that the Poison Spider Queen was so proud of!
"Power at its peak, cleave the star!"

Zhang Yuan took a step forward, ignoring the deadly cold light shot from the shadows by the Shadow Killer Leopard King. The bone spear, with a piercing shriek, was imbued with the will to cleave stars, and pierced straight into the heart of the Mountain-Splitting Bear King!

This spear thrust, swift!
ruthless!
quasi!
Ignoring the giant paw of the Bear King and the demonic power that shook the canyon, the spear tip, with its all-consuming ghostly light, instantly pierced through the earth-yellow demonic aura protecting the Bear King!
"Pfft!"

Bone spear pierces through the body!

The violent sword intent of annihilation, the divine fire of burning the heavens, and the blood soul tribulation lightning erupted wildly within the Bear King's body!
"Ow—!"

The Mountain-Splitting Bear King let out a deafening, mournful howl.

The mountain-like body suddenly stiffened, a huge bloody hole exploded in his chest, and his heart, along with most of his internal organs, instantly turned into charcoal!

Its formidable defense, which it was so proud of, was as fragile as paper under Zhang Yuan's attack, which combined the ultimate power and the sharpness of the divine spear!

Just as the Bear King was killed, the Shadow Killer Leopard King's long-awaited finishing blow arrived!
Three dark claw shadows, imbued with extreme penetrating power, appeared silently at the back of Zhang Yuan's head, back of his heart, and waist!
The timing was impeccable!

However, it seemed as if Zhang Yuan had eyes in the back of his head!

"The Undying Light of the Mysterious Jade!"

A chaotic, jade-like halo instantly covered his entire body!
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

Three piercing clangs of metal clashing!

The claw shadow, powerful enough to tear apart the sacred artifact's defenses, slammed into the halo, creating violent ripples. The dark green, highly poisonous curse eroded the halo frantically, but ultimately failed to break through the seemingly thin layer of chaotic light shield!
A look of disbelief and horror flashed in Shadow Killer Leopard King's eyes!

Its most powerful sneak attack failed?!

"trap!"

Without turning his head, Zhang Yuan pointed his left hand, fingers pointing like a sword, at the shadowy spot where the Wind Leopard King was hiding!
The intent of the Immortal-Trapping Sword erupts!

A thin yet deadly black sword thread ignored spatial distance and instantly disappeared into the shadows!

"Uh!"

With a muffled groan, Shadow Killer Leopard King was forced to fall out of the shadows, his movements visibly faltering as if he had instantly lost all strength!
This is precisely the power of the Immortal-Trapping Sword Intent devouring the power of the trapped and interfering with its source of power!
"die!"

Zhang Yuan seized this fleeting opportunity, pulled the bone spear out of the bear king's body, and swept it in a whirlwind!
A flash of dark light appeared, and the sword intent of annihilation erupted!
Space was like frozen glass, shattering into pieces wherever the spear passed!

Shadow Killer Leopard King had no chance to dodge and only had time to raise his claws, honed over a thousand years, to parry.

"Crack!"

The claws, along with half of the shoulder, shattered like rotten wood under the bone spear that contained the intent of annihilation!
The spear, its momentum undiminished, slashed fiercely across its waist and abdomen!
"Hiss-!"

Shadow Killer Wind Leopard King was cut in half at the waist!

His upper body flew up with a look of utter horror, while his lower body, gushing out dark green demonic blood, crashed to the ground!

In the blink of an eye, two of the three demon kings were gone!

The Bone-Eating Poison Spider Queen was terrified and lost all will to fight. Her eight compound eyes were filled with fear. She turned around and tried to escape into the depths of the canyon to activate the final Ten Thousand Bones Soul-Devouring Array and perish together with the enemy!

"You can't leave."

Zhang Yuan's voice was as cold as the wind from the deepest hell.

The bone spear in his hand flew out and transformed into a destructive meteor wrapped in divine fire and tribulation lightning!
"Exterminate them all, let them pierce the sun!"

The bone spear, imbued with the will to pierce through everything, strikes first despite being the last to move!
"boom!!!"

The spear pierced the core of the venomous spider queen's bloated abdomen with unparalleled precision, and the violent force pinned her firmly to the rock wall at the end of the canyon!
Divine fire spread and tribulation lightning raged. The Poisonous Spider Queen didn't even have time to scream before she was reduced to ashes in the flames and lightning!

With the three demon kings defeated, the remaining elite demons were terrified and fled in panic.

Zhang Yuan raised his hand and retrieved the bone spear. He flicked his fingers repeatedly at the white bone array bases in the canyon that emitted a ghostly light, and streams of heaven-burning divine fire fell precisely, instantly incinerating the core nodes of the Ten Thousand Bones Soul-Devouring Array!
Broken Soul Gorge, restored!

It took less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!

As Zhang Yuan slowly walked out of the canyon, carrying the bone spear that was still dripping with the demon king's blood, the human cultivators who had come to support from afar and only witnessed the end of the battle all gasped in shock. Their gazes toward that dark figure were filled with unparalleled awe and awe.

……

Zhang Yuan's ruthless methods at Broken Soul Gorge caused his name to spread like a plague among the demon race, instilling fear in them.

However, hatred can drive madness even more.

On the fifth day, the remnants of the Blackwater Serpent clan used themselves as bait to set up the "Nine Netherworld Profound Water Grand Array," successfully luring an elite team led by Ling Yuan, the deputy abbot of the Crimson Sun Temple, into it!
Blackwater Abyss.

It is located in the lower reaches of the Chensha River, in a naturally formed, huge whirlpool abyss.

The water elemental power here is violent and chaotic, and it is also filled with Yin energy that corrodes the soul.

At this moment, above the abyss, the viscous, ink-like Xuanming Heavy Water formed a huge vortex cage, and nine Xuanming Water Dragons, condensed from the heavy water and comparable to the peak of the Saint Realm, roared and tumbled in the vortex.

Trapped in the center, Ling Yuan and the others were like birds stuck in a swamp. Their protective spiritual light was rapidly dimming under the erosion of the heavy water, and they were struggling to hold on, on the verge of collapse.

At the very bottom of the abyss, a chilling hiss could be faintly heard. It was a projection of the resentment of the "Nine-Headed Nether Serpent" that Xuanming, the chieftain of the Blackwater Serpent Clan, had forcibly stirred up by the great formation and the earth's veins, with the intention of completely refining Ling Yuan and the others!

The news sent shockwaves through the camp.

Ling Yuan is not only the deputy abbot of Chiyang Temple, but also a close friend of the late Xuan Yu Temple abbot Xuan Chengzi, and enjoys extremely high prestige!
Rescue is urgent, but the Blackwater Abyss's advantageous terrain, coupled with the Nine Nether Profound Water Array and the resentment of the Nether Serpents stirred up by the Profound Nether, makes it far more dangerous than the Soul-Severing Gorge, making a direct assault almost impossible.

Zhang Yuan stepped forward again and said only two words: "I'll go."

When Zhang Yuan's figure appeared above the Blackwater Abyss, the raging Xuanming Heavy Water seemed to be provoked.

The vortex suddenly accelerated, and nine enormous water dragons roared and soared into the sky, bringing with them a chilling cold that could freeze the soul and an immense pressure, as they came crashing down!

At the bottom of the abyss, the suffocating resentment of the Nether Serpent, like a venomous python awakening, locked onto Zhang Yuan!
Faced with a deadly situation that would make even a Venerable One frown, Zhang Yuan's eyes remained completely unmoved.

Instead of immediately launching a powerful attack with his spear, he thrust the bone spear in front of him!
"Freeze!" Dark red lightning patterns flickered on the bone spear, and an aura of annihilating tribulation lightning spread, forcibly creating a small stable area in the violent water elemental force field.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yuan formed hand seals with incredible speed, his fingertips radiating a deep, dark light.

An energy deeper and colder than the waters of the abyss, containing the essence of extreme corrosion and heavy suppression, frantically condensed in his palm!

"Mysterious Netherworld True Water Seal!"

This is the great water-based divine power he deduced by refining the essence of Xuan Yue's blood and combining it with the Great Dao of Chaos!
Use the other person's way to repay the other person's body!
A large, square seal, completely black and seemingly capable of absorbing all light, instantly took shape!

On the seal, mysterious serpentine patterns could be faintly seen flowing, radiating an unparalleled pressure that could freeze all laws and erode the void!

"town!"

Zhang Yuan gave a low shout and pressed down lightly with both hands!
The Xuanming True Water Seal flew out of his hand, swelled in the wind, and instantly transformed into a giant seal hundreds of feet long. With a weight as heavy as if turning the world upside down, it crashed down on the huge vortex of heavy water below!
“Rumble——!!!”

A deafening roar!
There was no explosion caused by energy collisions, only a higher level of devouring and suppression!
The Xuanming True Water Seal was like a bottomless black hole. The moment it crashed into the vortex, the viscous and violent Xuanming Heavy Water seemed to have encountered a monarch, frantically converging towards the seal, being devoured, and assimilated!

The nine roaring water dragons, as if being choked by an invisible giant hand, wailed and disintegrated, transforming into pure water elemental power that merged into the seal!

The entire Nine Nether Profound Water Array was like a punctured balloon, its energy core being frantically extracted and disintegrated by the Profound Water Seal!
The light of the formation dimmed rapidly!

Xuanming, at the bottom of the abyss, let out a roar of shock and rage. The resentment of the Nether Serpents it stirred up transformed into a ghastly green pillar of poisonous flame, attempting to impact the Xuanming True Water Seal and reverse the tide of defeat.

"Hmph! Just a regrettable disappointment!"

Zhang Yuan snorted coldly, and with a grab of his right hand, the Divine Beast Sky-Splitting Bone Spear that was stuck in front of him flew into his hand with a hum.

"Severed Immortals, Annihilation!"

The bone spear transformed into a streak of dark light, carrying the will to end all life and freeze all things. It struck first, arriving with unparalleled precision at the core of the ghastly green pillar of light!

"puff!"

Like a red-hot iron being plunged into ice!
The bone spear, imbued with the sword intent of annihilation and the sharpness of tribulation lightning, instantly froze, pierced, and shattered the projection of the Nether Serpent's resentment into countless scattered green light spots!
The great formation has completely collapsed!

The heavy water prison that shrouded the abyss has vanished!
"go!"

Zhang Yuan's voice reached the ears of Ling Yuan and the others below.

Ling Yuan and the others, having escaped their predicament, had no time to be shocked and immediately transformed into streaks of light, rushing out of the abyss.

Zhang Yuan's gaze was already fixed on Xuan Ming, the Blackwater Serpent Clan Chief, who was severely injured and weakened by the backlash of the formation at the bottom of the abyss.

"Xuanming, it's time for you to settle your karmic debts."

Zhang Yuan's voice was devoid of any emotion.

"No! Zhang Yuan! You can't..." Xuan Ming's eyes were filled with boundless fear.

Zhang Yuan didn't give it a chance to finish speaking.

The bone spear was raised once more. This time, the three sword intents of Annihilation, Trapping, and Destruction merged perfectly with the ultimate power on the spearhead. Chaotic true essence was poured in, transforming into a chaotic tribulation light that seemed to be at the beginning of the creation of the world!

"Chaos, return to nothingness!"

The spear flashed and disappeared in an instant.

At the bottom of the abyss, Xuanming's enormous serpentine body, along with its unwilling roar, was silently annihilated and decomposed in the chaotic light of calamity, ultimately turning into the most primitive particles and returning to nothingness.

The last powerful bloodline of the Blackwater Serpent clan in the Sinking Sand River has been completely severed!

Zhang Yuan raised his hand to retract the Xuanming True Water Seal, which shone even brighter and now carried a faint hint of eerie chill. He glanced at the empty abyss below, then turned and left.

Throughout, the performance was fluid and effortless.

Those who witnessed this battle were all terrified, and their awe of Zhang Yuan reached its peak.

With a single hand, he shattered the great formation; with a flick of his finger, he annihilated the Xuanming! What heaven-defying power this is!

With two consecutive astonishing solo victories, Zhang Yuan has become an undisputed leader and spiritual pillar in the hearts of the human cultivators in the war zone, like a pillar of strength.

However, the demon race's final counterattack, and their most frenzied offensive, arrived on the eighth day.

The demon race actually used a secret technique to activate a dormant earth fire spiritual vein that had been dormant for ten thousand years deep in the Shensha River!

The raging magma erupted from the ground like an out-of-control dragon, instantly engulfing Lava City, one of the most important human strongholds in the war zone!

Even more deadly, the eruption point of the volcano formed a huge lava lake, and in the center of the lake, a "Fire Demon Altar" formed by the condensation of volcanic elites was taking shape.

Once the altar is fully stabilized, it will continuously summon powerful earth fire demons and trigger a larger-scale ley line upheaval, with unimaginable consequences!
Meanwhile, several elite demon armies led by peak demon kings launched a fierce attack from multiple directions while the earth fire raged and the human race was in disarray!

The target is the core of Lava City's remaining defenses, the "Flame Suppressing Tower," the control hub for the earth fire!
In an instant, Lava City transformed into a true hellish furnace, with flames soaring into the sky and battle cries echoing across the land. The human defenders suffered heavy casualties, and their defenses were on the verge of collapse.

This time, the enemy is no longer a single powerful force, but a catastrophic situation intertwined with natural disasters and man-made calamities!

Zhang Yuan stood high in the sky, looking down at the lava city below, which resembled a hellish inferno.

The firelight illuminated his cold, stern face.

Without the slightest hesitation, his divine sense instantly covered the entire battlefield like an invisible giant net.

"Senior Brother Qingxuan, lead the Xuanyu Temple and fellow Daoists of the Chiyang Temple to firmly defend the eastern wing of the Zhenyan Tower! Form the 'Xuanyu Guizhen Zhenyue Formation' to defend instead of attack, and use the intention of returning to truth to dissolve the fire poison and stabilize the formation!"

"Vice Abbot Ling Yuan! Lead the fellow Daoists of Panshi Temple and Liuyun Temple to take charge of the western flank! Form the 'Panshi Liuyun Locking Yuan Formation' to slow down the demon race's charge and disrupt their formation!"

"All others skilled in water and ice magic, heed my command! Target—the lava lake! Suppress the fire with all your might and delay the altar's formation!"

A series of clear and precise commands, like war drums, resounded in the souls of every human cultivator, instantly dispelling the panic!

As a warlord of the Great Qin Dynasty, having experienced countless battles, Zhang Yuan's greatest skill lies in troop deployment and formation.

On the contrary, most cultivators in this prehistoric world fight individually, and when faced with large-scale battles, they can basically only rely on instinct.

At this moment, under Zhang Yuan's command, the garrison commanders of the various garrison posts quickly assembled.

Zhang Yuan himself transformed into a golden-red streak of light and rushed directly towards the Flame Demon Altar that was taking shape above the lava lake!

He possesses the Heaven-Burning Divine Fire and is not afraid of high temperatures, but the summoning fluctuations emanating from the altar are the real threat!

"Heaven-Burning Creation, Purgatory Furnace!"

Zhang Yuan held his hands in a gesture of respect, and the Heaven-Burning Divine Wings behind him shone brightly!
A gigantic, phantom furnace made of dark purple divine fire appeared above the lava lake, its opening pointing at the altar below, unleashing a terrifying suction force!

The magma that had just erupted, and even the elite magma that had been condensed in the altar itself, were forcibly extracted and thrown into the divine fire furnace to be refined!
The altar's construction was abruptly halted and delayed! (End of Chapter)
