Chapter 1555 Destroying the Forbidden Land Again
The inner world phantom behind Wang Xian resonated violently with the laws of the Heavenly Domain, and countless golden runes surged from the void, weaving a cocoon around him.
When the celestial lotus at the core of the inner world trembled slightly, the connection between the celestial realm and the inner world was suddenly severed, as if the umbilical cord had been cut by a sharp blade.
In the instant of the separation, Wang Xian clearly sensed that the solid "gaze" that followed him like a shadow from the eternal universe melted away instantly, like ice and snow meeting the sun.
The invisible shackles that had been pressing down on his soul shattered with a roar, and even breathing became a hundred times smoother.
"call--"
Wang Xian couldn't help but let out a long sigh, the exhaled turbid air exploding in the chaotic turbulence, scattering the surrounding stardust.
A flicker of fear flashed in Wang Xian's eyes. The sheer size of the 'Eternal Universe' was terrifying. It was a colossal entity that contained countless worlds, almost on par with the 'Chaos Sea'. Its condensed will, the "gaze," was like a sword hanging overhead.
Now that the inner world has been completely separated from the Heavenly Realm, the suffocating sense of oppression has finally disappeared, as if a heavy burden has been lifted.
However—Wang Xian suddenly stretched out his right hand, palm up, holding a floating rune.
The rune was about an inch square, yet it exuded an indescribable eeriness.
It was right in the center of everyone's sight, yet it seemed as if it were separated by a mist billions of light-years away.
Anyone who looks closely can only catch a blurry image, like the moon in the water or a flower in a mirror.
Just as Su Qingyan was about to activate her eyesight, a sharp pain suddenly came from her brow and sea of consciousness. She quickly withdrew her gaze, and the jade flute almost slipped from her hand.
"What kind of rune is this?"
Yan Yangjun took half a step forward, the flame totem on his fire armor swaying violently due to the presence of the runes. "Why can I only see chaos when I activate my Heavenly Eye?"
The vertical eye on his forehead throbbed with pain—it was the first time his supernatural powers, cultivated over tens of thousands of years, had failed.
The fat Taoist priest rubbed his eyes and leaned closer, his nose almost touching the rune, but he only smelled a burnt smell, like the annihilation of stars: "Strange, strange! My eyes, which have seen the Netherworld, how come I can't see this thing?"
The chubby Taoist priest beside him waved the "Ten Thousand Souls Crying Flute," and the soul blood overflowing from the flute's holes turned to ashes the moment it touched the runes.
Wang Xian stared at the light and shadow in his palm, his eyes reflecting the chaotic, flowing light of the runes.
This rune was born when the inner world separated from the celestial realm—at the moment when countless chains of divine rules shattered, he felt a weight in his palm, and this rune appeared out of thin air.
At this moment, Wang Xian could clearly perceive that the surface of the runes was flowing with energy that did not belong to any known laws. Sometimes it would condense into a black vortex that destroyed everything, and sometimes it would bloom with golden light that created all things. Two completely opposite forces were tearing each other apart in the middle, but they were bound by some higher-level rules.
"do not know."
Wang Xian admitted that when he lightly brushed his fingertips along the edge of the rune, several streams of light immediately splashed up, like burning stardust.
He could see that the edges of the runes were turning into stardust and dissipating at a visible speed, each annihilation accompanied by a subtle tremor in space: "When the inner world was separated from the celestial domain, it was formed by the condensation of shattered chains of divine rules and chaotic energy."
Su Qingyan's jade flute trembled slightly, and the blood vessels at the broken point lit up again: "The energy is dissipating too quickly—"
She took out a jade slip covered in runes and brought it close to the runes. The patterns on the jade slip instantly dimmed. "According to the calculations on the jade slip, the runes will completely decompose in at most twelve hours."
Yan Yangjun's expression was solemn: "Such a terrifying energy condensation... it would be too much of a pity to let it dissipate."
He could sense that the power contained in this rune was enough to tear apart the entire world, or even do so very easily. If he could make good use of it, he might be able to gain unexpected benefits.
Wang Xian suddenly recalled the brutal scenes of the Battle of the Heavens.
With a flick of his finger, the rune traced a chaotic path in the air, instantly disintegrating a nearby floating meteorite into basic particles.
“After the Battle of Slaughtering Heaven, it wasn’t just the Eternal Forbidden Land that participated in the siege of me.” Wang Xian’s tone was icy. “Since this rune is a product of the fission of the rules of heaven and earth and cannot be preserved, it’s perfect to use it to retaliate against those guys hiding in the shadows.”
"Look! It's gotten blurry again!"
The chubby Taoist priest suddenly pointed at the talisman and exclaimed in surprise.
As everyone looked over, they saw that the outline of the runes had indeed faded a bit more, as if they might merge into the void at any moment.
Without further hesitation, Wang Xian flicked his finger and drew the rune into his body—there, the Destiny God Body and the Chaos Body resonated simultaneously, temporarily locking in the energy lost from the rune.
"Get ready to leave here."
Wang Xian stood up, and the Emperor Dragon Spear erupted with thousands of light threads, weaving the surrounding void turbulence into a cross-star domain teleportation array.
"We need to find the most suitable forbidden area within twelve hours."
The lingering warmth of the runes on Wang Xian's palm seemed to be a reminder that this fragment of rules was definitely a peerless weapon capable of destroying the forbidden area.
"Huh? Where are the nine Heavenly Lords?"
Just before Wang Xian stepped into the teleportation array, he suddenly stopped, his gaze sweeping across the empty corner of the Star Ruins.
The teleportation array woven from the Emperor Dragon Spear flowed beneath his feet, but nine familiar figures were missing—the nine Heavenly Lords who had followed him since the War of Slaughtering Heaven were nowhere to be seen.
Su Qingyan's jade flute trembled slightly in the starlight, and the bloodstains at the broken point had already solidified into crystals: "The nine Heavenly Lords suffered too much damage to their origins and tore through space to return to the Nine Heavens last night."
She looked at Wang Xian, her tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible worry, "Before leaving, he said that there were abnormal fluctuations in the star orbits near the Nine Heavens, as if an ancient restriction was loosening."
Yan Yangjun's fire armor suddenly sparked a few flecks, clearly remembering something: "The star orbit restriction of the Nine Heavens... could it be the abyssal rift sealed six thousand years ago?" He turned to Wang Xian, "The abyssal passage that the nine Heavenly Lords suppressed with their own essence back then, if it really is disturbed..."
"Is it serious?"
Wang Xian's voice carried a suppressed urgency as the Emperor Dragon Spear unconsciously pierced into the stellar debris beneath his feet, stirring up large swaths of molten stellar core magma.
He recalled that during the war against the heavens, the nine celestial lords had burned their very essence to fight against the dark Hongjun, and later, despite their injuries, they had followed him to explore the forbidden land. He remembered this kindness very clearly.
Su Qingyan quickly took out a communication jade slip, the nine-colored light on its surface slowly flashing: "Before the Heavenly Lords left, they left a divine imprint, saying it was just a periodic restriction resonance."
Her fingertips brushed across the jade slip, revealing a protective array diagram jointly set up by the nine Heavenly Lords. "Look at the fluctuations in the star trails; it's more like a natural evolution of some kind of celestial law."
The fat Taoist priest suddenly pointed at the jade slip and exclaimed, "I recognize this picture! The star trails of the Nine Heavens are somewhat similar to the patterns on this fragment of the Emperor's Coffin!"
He pulled out the dark fragment, and the patterns on it did indeed somewhat resemble the star trail diagram on the jade slip.
The chubby Taoist priest added, trembling, "Brother, last time this piece of debris got hot, it attracted three imperial bones..."
Wang Xian stared at the slowly rotating nine-colored star map on the jade slip, and suddenly felt a subtle sensation from his Destiny Divine Body—the fluctuations in those star tracks were not a crisis, but rather seemed to be some kind of revelation from the Great Dao.
“Let’s go.” Wang Xian stepped into the teleportation array. “Let’s deal with one of the forbidden areas first. As for the Nine Heavens… if it really is a disturbance in the restrictions, the resources of the nine Heavenly Lords are enough to support us until we return.”
Feeling the lingering warmth of the runes in Wang Xian's palm, Yan Yangjun suddenly realized: "Wang Xian, are you planning to destroy a forbidden area directly?"
Although he hadn't experienced it closely, he could still guess at the power contained within that rune; it was definitely capable of destroying a forbidden area.
The teleportation array woven from the Emperor Dragon Spear suddenly erupted, drawing Wang Xian and his group into a dazzling spatial passage.
The surrounding starscape instantly transformed into distorted bands of light, and chaotic currents crashed against the array walls, creating countless sparks, as if traversing a burning galaxy. Wang Xian sat cross-legged at the array's core, the flowing light at the array's edge falling like sand through an hourglass.
Yan Yangjun said in a deep voice, "Ahead lies the 'Burning Heaven Forbidden Land,' where, according to legend, the remnants of the ancient Burning Heaven Demon Clan are suppressed!"
Before the words were finished, the teleportation array suddenly shook, and everyone was thrown towards the exit.
Suddenly, a burning continent appeared before them—the sky was filled with boiling lava clouds, the ground was traversed by rivers of fire thousands of feet high, and the air was thick with the scorching heat that seemed to burn everything in its path.
Black demonic flames spewed from the distant volcano, and countless twisted faces could be vaguely seen wailing from within the flames.
"Such a dense aura of demonic energy!"
The chubby Taoist priest pinched his nose and took a half step back. The soul blood on the Ten Thousand Souls Crying Flute was actually evaporated into blue smoke by the high temperature. "It smells even stronger than the blood from the 'Eternal Forbidden Land'!"
Wang Xian stood in mid-air, his Emperor Dragon Spear pointing directly at the obsidian altar in the center of the Burning Heaven Forbidden Land.
There stood nine totem poles burning with demonic flames, their surfaces engraved with curse runes, each one emanating the laws of destruction.
"During the War of Slaughtering Heaven, the powerful figures of the 'Burning Heaven Forbidden Land' besieged me."
Wang Xian's voice was swallowed by the sound of exploding flames, "Today, it's time to settle things."
Before the words were even finished, the Emperor Dragon Spear had already transformed into a black streak of light, tearing through the fiery canopy of the Burning Heaven Forbidden Land and stabbing fiercely towards the Obsidian Altar.
The moment the spear tip touched the altar, the entire Burning Heaven Forbidden Land trembled violently. The nine totem poles simultaneously erupted with dazzling red light, and countless demonic energies converged into a sky-covering demonic hand, which slammed down on Wang Xian's head.
"Well done!"
Instead of retreating, Wang Xian advanced, his chaotic body bursting forth with boundless light. Behind him, the phantom of his inner world appeared, and the immortal lotus blossomed with countless threads of light, colliding violently with the demonic hand.
Space shattered inch by inch during the collision, revealing the dark void behind it.
The fiery river of the forbidden land was shaken and flowed upstream, forming a burning waterfall.
"Who dares to trespass into my forbidden land of Burning Heaven?!"
A furious roar came from the depths of the altar, and the obsidian altar exploded with a deafening roar, revealing a giant clad in lava armor stepping out of the flames.
His body was formed from billions of demonic flames, and his eyes burned with the terrifying pressure of a 'Tenth-Rank Immortal Emperor'. Every step he took caused the earth of the Burning Heaven Forbidden Land to collapse for thousands of miles.
"I am the Burning Heaven Ancestor!"
The giant opened its massive maw and spewed out a pillar of demonic flames that pierced the heavens and earth. "In this war to slaughter the heavens, what if my descendants attack you?"
Wang Xian's pupils shrank sharply. This pillar of demonic flame contained the law of incinerating everything, making it several times stronger than the attack of the Eternal Universe Immortal Emperor.
Wielding the Emperor Dragon Spear, he unleashed layers of chaotic shields, only to see the shields melt away inch by inch in the demonic flames, forcing Wang Xian to retreat repeatedly, his robes scorched with countless holes.
"Old Wang, be careful! This is the primordial demonic flame of the Burning Heaven Demon Clan!"
The chubby Taoist priest unleashed a talisman, but it turned to ashes the moment it approached the demonic flames.
The fat Taoist priest then took out a fragment of the Emperor's Coffin. The patterns on the fragment sizzled as they burned under the demonic flames.
Yan Yangjun roared and unleashed a palm strike. The dark blue flames collided with the demonic flames, but it was like water droplets falling into boiling oil, unleashing an even more terrifying energy storm.
Su Qingyan played her jade flute horizontally, and blood-red crystal butterflies formed a light shield, but they emitted a "sizzling" corrosive sound in the demonic flames, and the wings of the crystal butterflies quickly dimmed.
Wang Xian took a deep breath, bit his tongue hard, and spat out a mouthful of golden blood essence that merged into the Emperor Dragon Spear.
"Chaos Annihilation Dragon Spear!"
The patterns on the gun instantly lit up, transforming into a thousand-meter-long world-destroying celestial dragon, roaring as it charged towards the Burning Heaven Ancestor.
Upon seeing this, the Burning Heaven Ancestor laughed wildly: "A death throes!"
He formed hand seals, and the nine totem poles erupted with even more terrifying demonic flames, condensing behind him into a ten-thousand-foot-tall demonic flame war god. With a single punch, he actually forced the World-Destroying Heavenly Dragon to retreat in defeat.
"Late-stage 'Ten-Turn Immortal Emperor' combat power... These forbidden areas are indeed full of treacherous bastards!"
Wang Xian wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes grew even sharper.
"But... that's all there is to it!"
Wang Xian suddenly raised his hand, and the blurry rune inside his body was pushed out by the Destiny God Body and the Chaos Body, hovering above his palm.
"what is this?"
The Burning Heaven Ancestor's pupils shrank suddenly as he sensed the terrifying energy on the runes that did not belong to any law, and he subconsciously took a half step back.
"A gift to send you on your way!"
Wang Xian flicked his finger, and the blurry runes suddenly expanded, transforming into a chaotic light seal that enveloped the heavens and the earth.
The black and white colors on the surface of the light seal spun wildly, forming a miniature chaotic universe, and all the demonic flames that came into contact with the light seal were instantly annihilated.
"This is a fragment of rules?!"
Ancestor Burning Heaven roared in terror and turned to flee, only to find that his limbs were already bound by the chaotic divine chains emanating from the light seal.
Wang Xian's eyes were icy cold as he formed hand seals, activating the runes with all his might.
In an instant, the entire celestial realm trembled violently, dark clouds surged in the sky, and a giant hand made of chaotic colored light threads slowly condensed.
This palm covered the entire celestial realm's field of vision, each finger flowing with the laws of creation, the palm lines resembling a cosmic star map, radiating a terrifying pressure that made the souls of all celestial cultivators tremble.
"what is that?!"
Throughout the heavens, countless cultivators knelt on the ground, gazing up at the giant hand in the sky, not daring to even breathe.
"Is this divine punishment? Such terrifying pressure..."
"Look! The giant hand is pointing towards the Burning Heaven Forbidden Land!"
The giant hand slowly pressed down, and wherever it passed, space turned into nothingness, and time stood still.
The fiery river, obsidian altar, and nine totem poles of the Forbidden Land of Burning Heaven were like fragile glass, shattering inch by inch before the giant hand.
The Burning Heaven Ancestor let out a shrill scream as his body turned to ashes under the giant palm, leaving not even a trace of his soul behind.
Even more terrifying, the residual force of the giant hand penetrated the 'Burning Heaven Forbidden Land' and continued downwards, crushing towards the second and third layers of the forbidden land.
