Just as Celestial Venerable Hong's palm covered the entirety of Tianfang City, a dazzling light burst forth between the two. The light had just lit up when it vanished without a trace.
At the same time, on Celestial Venerable Hong's incomparably huge face, the benevolent smile turned into astonishment and anger. His physique was too big, and his expression seemed to change extremely slowly. However, this astonishment and anger vanished, leaving only coldness.
His broken wrist came out, and his flesh and blood grew frantically. Threads of flesh as thick as mountains stretched forward, and his blood vessels grew like flood dragons. The bones of his hands grew like mountains on the ground.
At this moment, Celestial Venerable Hong frowned again.
He felt something strange. He used the path of creation to repair the damage to his corporeal body. The path of creation used up his magic power and magic power. Logically speaking, with his attainments in the realm, the magic power that was consumed should be recovered very quickly.
However, at this moment, he didn't feel any signs of his magic power recovering.
He felt as though there was an invisible lock in his body. It was an extremely complicated chain that locked up his magic power layer by layer, preventing him from recovering his cultivation!
Just as he thought that, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his heart. In a daze, Celestial Venerable Hong felt as though he had fallen into a deep well and was looking up at the sky.
This feeling was similar to when he had fallen out with Qin Mu at the Jade Pool before the meeting of the Heaven Alliance.
However, this strange feeling quickly vanished. The cultivation he had exhausted was insignificant to him. It was just a drop in the ocean.
His palm recovered very quickly, and he gripped it tightly. Below him, the broken hand exploded, and the Dao weapons of the Heavenly Dao flew out to land on his new hand.
"Without the five Heavenly Dao weapons, the most crucial Heavenly Dao weapon was also stolen."
Celestial Venerable Hong, who was looking down on the Outlander Divine City, slowly raised his head. He saw that the broken piece of land had already broken out of the encirclement of the celestial heavens' army under Di Qing's protection and was escaping.
At the edge of that piece of land, rays of light appeared, and five masked figures rushed out from the light. They only stopped after traveling dozens of miles.
The corporeal bodies of the five people exploded, and their blood flowed back. They were restrained by a strange power, and they were almost unharmed.
The five Heaven Dao weapons that were lost were caught by these five people.
"Celestial Venerable Mu, you still don't understand what it means to be auspicious when treated, fierce when faced with chaos. You broke one of my arms and stole my Dao weapon. It looks like there's no room for negotiation between us."
Celestial Venerable Hong's body rapidly shrunk, and he quickly transformed into his normal height. He had wide sleeves and a large robe, looking elegant and unrestrained. He was like an otherworldly expert that had transcended the mortal world as he chased after that piece of land. "The evil we bring upon ourselves cannot be avoided."
"All the armies of the celestial heavens, kill the remaining survivors of Xuandu's Heaven Square City. Don't let any of them off."
His voice rang out in the ears of the various military marquises of the celestial heavens, and it was incomparably heavy. He said leisurely, "This is the best time for you to make a contribution, and it's also the best chance for you to plunder the wealth of Xuandu and capture the slaves."
Countless flags fluttered as ships and countless majestic gods and devils flew up from the ships to attack the Xuandu gods that weren't killed by Celestial Venerable Hong's palm.
There were other planets that hadn't been shattered by Celestial Venerable Hong's palm. The planets floated, and on them were the people of Xuandu. The surviving Sun Guardian and Moon Guardian executed their magic power divine arts in an attempt to escape with these people.
Although Celestial Venerable Hong's footsteps looked slow, his speed was extremely fast. He was getting closer to that landmass.
On that landmass, Qin Mu, Butcher, and the rest stumbled as they moved continuously. Clang, clang, clang. The five Heavenly Dao weapons were stabbed into the ground, and they finally stabilized themselves.
The five of them looked at each other with lingering fear.
"I have a Heaven Mudra Dao Weapon here!" Zhe Huali still hadn't recovered from his shock and said solemnly.
"I have a Heavenly Origin Dao weapon here," Luo Wushuang said as he looked at the Heavenly Origin Mirror in his hand.
"The one in my hand should be the Dao weapon of Heaven Palace." Tian Shu held onto a divine building and said.
"What I have is a Heavenly Secrets Dao weapon," Butcher said as he looked at the umbrella stuck in the ground.
Qin Mu looked at the Heavenly Dao Dao weapon that he had stabbed into the ground and saw that this Heavenly Dao Dao weapon was like a canopy in the sky. When it was opened up, it was a canopy that transformed into the sky. The Heavenly Dao outline of the path under the sky was always centered around the top of the sky, and it was separated into 49 lines that hung down from the top of the sky.
"This is the Dao weapon of the Heavenly Dao, the general outline of the Heavenly Dao."
Qin Mu said solemnly, "With this treasure, we can control the other Heavenly Dao weapons."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief and gave it their all. They didn't waste their efforts.
They weren't just risking their lives this time.
Celestial Venerable Hong's strike had shattered even matter into chaos. Under the state of chaos, even the soul would probably turn into chaos. It would no longer be a substance, and there would no longer be black soul sand!
At that time, no matter if it was Qin Mu's soul molding divine art or the unchanging substance, they were all useless and had no chance of survival!
"Celestial Venerable Hong is an existence that can break through the 35 voids with his own magic power. Among the ten Celestial Venerables, his magic power is the strongest, surpassing those like Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xiao."
Qin Mu let out a shaky breath and turned back to take a look. He was astonished as he saw Celestial Venerable Hong's sleeves fluttering. He had already crossed the formation line of the celestial heavens and was walking over under the bright light of Xuandu.
Soon, he would arrive.
"Who are you?"
Suddenly, Di Qing's voice rang out, but Qin Mu didn't answer. He touched the black cloth on his face, and it was still there. Heavenly King Tian Shu said with a smile, "Di Qing, we have already introduced ourselves. I'm the Mingdu Heavenly King under Founding Emperor, and these four are friends that I have invited to assist."
It was as if Di Qing didn't hear him. He looked straight at Qin Mu and asked solemnly, "Who are you?"
"You don't want to know who I am."
Qin Mu said indifferently, "What you should be thinking about now is how to escape from Celestial Venerable Hong and escort these people out of Xuandu."
Di Qing fell silent and turned back to look at the people on this broken land. There were still hundreds of thousands of people of Xuandu and a hundred Sun Guardians, but they were all injured.
Those people and the injured Sun Guardian looked at him with despair and hope in their eyes. They were still full of confidence in him and still believed that he could lead them out of the hopeless situation and bring them life.
Di Qing forced a smile and smiled at them.
"If you guys don't say who you are, I won't force you. I want five people to do one thing."
The arrogance on Di Qing's body vanished, and he bowed to the ground. "I implore everyone to send the disciples of my Xuandu to a safe place, far away from Xuandu."
Zhe Huali spoke quickly and couldn't resist saying, "We had already asked you to evacuate the people in the city and persuaded you more than once, yet you still wanted to kill our heads as sacrifices to the flag! What did you do earlier?"
Di Qing was incomparably ashamed. He kept his head close to the ground and didn't get up.
Zhe Huali wanted to say more, but Qin Mu raised his hand to stop him. He looked at Di Qing who was bowing to the ground and said, "If you go alone, you won't be able to hold them off for long. I'll give you four Heavenly Dao weapons, but the last Heavenly Dao weapon, I can't give it to you. Try to hold on for as long as you can. I can send the people on this land further away."
Di Qing got up and wiped away the tears on his face. He said with a smile, "Thank you Dao Brother for fulfilling my wish! If there's a next life…"
Qin Mu shook his head. "There's no next life, you can go."
Di Qing brought along the four Dao weapons of Heavenly Seal, Heavenly Origin, Heavenly East, and Heavenly Secrets. He bowed to Qin Mu and the rest before turning around and rising into the sky. Behind him, a stretch of celestial palaces burst forth to welcome Celestial Venerable Hong.
He was a great expert that was comparable to Son of Heaven Yin and White Deity, and he had the support of the Heavenly Dao. With the Dao weapon in hand, he was determined to fight to the death. He had to stall for a moment, even if it was just a moment!
"It's my own fault, hehe, it's my own fault…"
He chuckled and looked at Celestial Venerable Hong who was getting closer. Suddenly, he laughed loudly and unleashed all of his cultivation, activating all the power of the four Heavenly Dao Dao weapons as he rushed towards Celestial Venerable Hong!
"I can't compensate those clansmen who died because of me, nor can I repay those Dao brothers who helped me. All I can do is die. I'll use my life to give others a chance to live!"
He was full of vigor, but Celestial Venerable Hong, who was walking over, had a calm expression. He looked at him like he was looking at an ant.
Celestial Venerable Hong raised his hand gently, and the Heavenly Dao divine weapons in his palm were filled with overflowing power.
"He's my child, after all," Di Qing heard Celestial Venerable Hong say indifferently before he died.
He looked at Celestial Venerable Hong in a daze, and his eyes gradually turned dark.
