After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

"Is this the Celestial Clan? They look so pitiful."

Chen Ranran shuddered at the horrific scene in the mountains. Zhao Lingxiao turned to the side and, using his sense of smell and hearing, noticed something amiss. "Master, there's a strange smell, it doesn't smell like a living person."

"It's an earth vein."

Chen Futu scanned the area but did not see Hua Hua's shadow. He then led his two disciples to the sky above the chaotic settlement. With one step, the aura of righteousness spread out, and the ominous dark clouds flowing within the settlement retreated swiftly as if avoiding snakes and scorpions.

"If it works, then things will be much easier."

Chen Futu, along with his two disciples, flashed to the very center of the Flying Cloud Mountains.

At this moment, the vast mountain range is already half-covered by black mist. If it were to completely cover the mountain range, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Wow! It's pitch black, I can't see anything."

Chen Ranran's cultivation level was too low, limiting her vision. This scene was even more terrifying than a thick fog in winter. Thick black mist covered the sky and swept over the three of them like a tidal wave. Every now and then, figures were condensed by the black mist, their forms very abstract.

"Hehehe, we meet again!"

A familiar aura echoed from the swirling, eerie black clouds, and laughter pierced the ears like a demonic sound. Chen Futu said calmly, "Indeed, you are a persistent ghost. Have I not warned you to stay obediently in the abyss and not to come out and harm living beings again?"

"Chen Futu, what gives you the right to treat me with such condescension? It is you who broke the rules and forcibly took away the clan that had fallen into the abyss. You have challenged my bottom line! You have challenged the will of heaven and earth!"

The dark clouds transformed into the form of the White Night Primordial Ancestor, twisting and distorting before my eyes, its mouth wide open in a roar.

Chen Ranran and Zhao Lingxiao were on edge; this strange thing actually recognized their master!

Chen Futu said, "I gave you too many chances, but you didn't cherish them."

"Chen Futu, I'm going to kill you! Kill—"

Even if I can't kill you today, I'll make you leave something behind.

Chen Futu made a hand seal.

"Draw a line on the ground to make a prison."

In an instant, the entire Flying Cloud Mountain Range was covered by the aura of the Great Sage. At the same time, righteous energy from the human world forcibly separated the clouds within the boundary, locking it in and preventing it from escaping.

"Chen Futu, you're targeting me again!"

The ghostly figures within the dark clouds were enraged. Realizing that Chen Futu intended to lock onto this area and suppress it, one of them roared and condensed all the black mist into a pitch-black entity.

All the black aura sodium nitrate within the Flying Cloud Mountains awakened the Celestial Clan members who were fighting each other within its coverage area. Along with them, the powerful figures on the Sacred Mountain of Tianzhu also rushed out one by one. Leading them were Ancestor Tianyin and another Quasi-Emperor, as well as Huahua, the beautiful woman, Huayun and other elders.

"It's the Holy Emperor!" the crowd exclaimed, wanting to rush forward. But the Heavenly Sound Ancestor said, "Don't go over there. We can't deal with that guy, but the Holy Emperor can."

"Chen Futu!"

The dark shadow was like a madman, hysterical and full of resentment.

Chen Futu said, "Grilled and snarling, as noisy as ever."

"Kill you, kill!"

Click, click.

Twisted, fine, dark lightning flashed as it pounced forward, surprisingly possessing the aura of a quasi-emperor.

This scene left the Celestial Clan dumbfounded.

"An ant trying to shake a tree, how laughable and presumptuous. So what if you're a quasi-emperor? I happen to be able to restrain you, have you forgotten?"

Chen Futu raised his hand, and the perfect sword rules transformed into a sword in his palm. The ethereal rules transformed into a sword, yet it was filled with extreme sharpness and killing intent, and then the aura of the righteous path of the human world attached itself to it.

"cut."

Chen Futu's sword strike was completely unpretentious, a simple and straightforward movement that severed the dark figure in half, the righteous energy devouring the two dark, mangled remains.

"Chen Futu, you deserve to die!"

The two severed bodies fled towards the sacred mountain where the Celestial Clan resided, seemingly intending to control some people.

Chen Futu narrowed his eyes slightly, "I told you, you're not leaving today."

Intent to kill across ten thousand miles!

Chen Futu had never used this move since he acquired it, and now was the perfect time to do so.

Chen Futu slashed into the void with his sword, and at this moment, the two black, broken pieces of his body rushed to the vicinity of the Holy Mountain. He prioritized locking onto the two Celestial Ancestors, "Hehehe, give me control of your bodies!"

If it controlled the wills of the two quasi-emperors, even for just a quarter of an hour, no, a few breaths, it would be enough to deal with Chen Futu.

The Heavenly Sound Ancestor and the other Quasi-Emperor were on high alert. They did not have Chen Futu's methods, and it would be difficult for them to resist such a strange existence.

Just as everyone exclaimed in surprise, a thousand-foot-long rift quietly opened in the void near the sacred mountain, and a pale golden vertical line cut out from it.

"No!"

The two severed bodies had no idea that an even more terrifying killing move awaited them ahead. They tried to escape, but it was too late. The upper half of their bodies was annihilated by the extreme golden-red sword light, leaving not even a trace of black energy behind.

"So strong!"

The crowd screamed in alarm.

Chen Futu's move, "Intent Kills Ten Thousand Miles," is terrifying. It traverses space in an instant, striking unexpectedly and possessing unimaginable power.

"Damn, damn!"

The lower half of the severed body suddenly transformed into a human form, and then exploded. "Since we can't escape, today I'll make all the Celestials pay with their lives!"

It will resort to its old tricks again, using the cover of black fog to affect everyone's mind.

The black mist spread extremely quickly, making it virtually impossible to defend against.

Chen Futu was prepared. He flashed to the core of the black mist, and a few drops of Dragon Emperor's blood flew out from his fingertips, once again drawing a circle on the ground to imprison him.

"The right path in the world."

Chen Futu used the Heavenly Counter Curse, unleashing three consecutive techniques. The black mist was locked within a certain range by the Dragon Emperor's Blood and could not escape. Furthermore, as the aura of the righteous path of the human world erupted, the black mist within the range was blown around like a boiling pot.

"It hurts so much, it's unbearable! Chen Futu, you deserve to die!"

"Devouring the Heavens".

Chen Futu unfurled the Devouring Heaven Scripture, and the divine halo covering his back was like a black hole swallowing the black mist within its range. In a mere instant, all the black mist was absorbed, and Chen Futu's cultivation level took another step towards the late stage of the Great Sage.

"Is this the end?"

"Okay, so strong!"

As the battle ended, everyone belatedly realized that awe had filled the eyes of the Celestials.

Chen Ranran excitedly shook Zhao Lingxiao's arm, "Senior brother, did you see that? Master is so domineering!"

"Although I can't see it, I can sense Master's swordsmanship. Master is indeed an unimaginable being."

Zhao Lingxiao gripped his longsword tightly. He had gained some insights from his master's swordsmanship just now, especially the move "Intent Kills Ten Thousand Miles," which showed that even if the enemy escaped far away, his master could still kill them with the strongest force.

Such power is the true essence of swordsmanship!

"Senior brother, so our master's real name was Chen Futu." Chen Ranran belatedly realized, and Zhao Lingxiao asked suspiciously, "You're only just finding out?"

"That's right, Master didn't tell me."

Chen Ranran, like a silly goose, kept pressing for details, so Zhao Lingxiao simply gave a brief account of Chen Futu's achievements.
