All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes

Chapter 547: Chapter 149: One Step Ahead

The situation quickly changed.

As the Ice Prison Demon Crowd took form, the demonic qi between heaven and earth began to rapidly activate.

The originally inert demonic qi of Embracing the Void transformed into active demonic qi akin to that of the Tianyuan Realm, while severe and erosive frost and snow began to fall. Amidst the sky-filled snow, on the ground, black vortex patterns twisted and turned into Yuan Dong, as if the ground transformed into a pool mixed with white and brown, and the drain cover of this pool was pulled open.

Inside this endlessly collapsing Yuan Dong, vague and deep laughter echoed, not of human origin: "We knew you would awaken, Bitter Silence!"

From afar.

Having traveled over a thousand li away and waiting at the edge of Iron Li’s control zone for the Tagu Tribe to take him back, An Qianshan looked towards the direction of Broken Blade Mountain.

Not just him, the entire Northern Border, everyone seemed to hear that voice, emanating as if from countless impurities and toxins between heaven and earth, the sorrowful voice originating from the Netherworld’s Heavenly Demon, piercing everyone’s soul.

"What happened over there?"

Da Chen’s disheartened literati, a successful merchant from Northern Border, now a guide of the Tagu Tribe, flashed countless thoughts in his mind, but none as shocking as reality.

Because, a meteor of fire flew backward at an incredible speed before crashing to the ground, instantly blowing up a flat area along with the camp above it, turning it into a volcanic crater.

That was a Divine Repository True Person being blown away.

"What’s going on, why are there so many Great Heavenly Demons?"

The battered Da Chen Inspector struggled to his feet, spitting out black blood. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, incredulously looking towards Broken Blade Mountain, "Is Bitter Silence that important? How long has the Heavenly Demon been preparing for this?"

"Why didn’t they tell me any of this up there?!"

In the distant sky, a huge Green Bird spread its wings, eclipsing the sun. Its wings spanned nearly a thousand zhang, cascading down streaks of Sky Blue Qi, radiantly shining like a cyan and gold sun in the sky. It now cried out long and loud, stirring up Divine Wind from the zenith, raining down numerous cyan-gold meteors, crashing into the ground, causing it to ripple like water waves, clearly exerting its utmost effort and playing its final hand.

But it was soon shot down; a dark shadow, a stinger emerging from the abyss pierced through its wings, a gigantic demon scorpion temporarily unable to climb out from the Dark Sea Yuan Dong was accompanied by tide-like demon forces.

Other Divine Repository True Persons were struggling to counterattack, but caught off guard, they could only barely maintain a stalemate. A slight mistake, and they would be blown away like the Inspector.

"Is Heavenly Mandate really asking me to stop all this? Seriously? In this kind of situation? Me? At least wait until I gather the Divine Repository?"

At this moment, An Jing, who was observing the scene from afar, couldn’t help but feel a bit hot and agitated.

It was not that he was scared, but the endless hidden cards of the Heavenly Demon were really beyond his imagination, "Luckily, I delayed the critical junctions when the True Demon Sect and Heavenly Demon sprang into action; otherwise, when Bitter Silence was about to be released during the first outbreak of the Frost Calamity and the Demon Disaster of Han South, Iron Li’s Iron Cavalry would have headed south by now!"

If Bitter Silence had been released at that time, he truly would have had no power to fight back; he wouldn’t even be able to flee.

An Jing was very clear that the time he had fought for himself allowed him to acquire the minimum safeguard—the upgrade of the Great Void Shuttle’s ability. With this, he could completely ignore the fate of all his friends and family in Embracing the Void and hide in the Tianyuan Realm for sixty days—by then, whatever happened, Da Chen would have already taken action, but the cost would be the complete dissolution of Northern Border, and most likely the demise of his parents and friends.

Just like the other Seven Fiend Tribulations. Forsaking everything, transforming into the Heaven Fiend Lone Star, scattering the Karma Tribulation Fire across the world, making everyone endure the wrath of the Seven Fiend Tribulation master.

But An Jing was unwilling to be a typical Seven Fiend Tribulation master.

He was not willing to give up, forsake something to achieve something.

This feeling of sacrifice, almost akin to degeneration, falling into the abyss, made him nauseous... hence, he must rebel against this ’fate’ that forced him to degenerate.

But how could he stop all of this?

Beneath the ground, Yuan Dong started to form, many Ice Prison Demon Crowd and scattered demons colluding, clearly about to initiate a Demon Disaster right on the spot. If using An Jing’s power, even if god himself possessed him, he couldn’t stop it unless...

It was by using some already existing powers to leverage the situation, reversing the circumstances.

Indeed so. But what powers could he currently utilize?

The answer naturally appeared.

An Jing sensed that the Earth Vein beneath his feet was also vibrating.

Noticing the leakage and expansion of Bitter Silence Demonic Qi, the sealing below the Broken Blade Mountain Range began to manifest proactively, wanting to seal it back again!

For a moment, in the Primordial Spirit Cave of Broken Blade Peak, a burst of pure and clear Innate Gold Essence Light erupted, instantly dyeing the surrounding heavens gold.

And those mountains in the range were also covered with a halo of light, faintly condensing countless luminous silhouettes, transforming the entire Broken Blade Mountain into a palatial celestial palace compound with double-eaved roofs; its halls solemn and majestic, pavilions and towers reaching towards the sky, Yin Yang and the Five Elements Light brightly filling the hall, at its core was a strand of purplish-blue Doulu Immortal Fire.

Doulu Immortal Palace emerged, then instantly moved above Yuan Dong, like an enormous flip-seal or a treasure pagoda pressing down.

Those floating Ice Demons, who were constructing the Heavenly Prison Formation, were caught off guard, all blasted to the ground—but quickly, they raised their heads, hissing and spewing cold demonic qi, resisting the pressure of the Immortal Palace seal.

In the past, not to mention the Ice Demons under Bitter Silence’s command, even if Bitter Silence himself fully merged with the body of the Ice Dragon and freed a sliver of consciousness, he would have been completely suppressed by this seal and pushed back.

But this time, with Yuan Dong already opened, aside from the Ice Demons restrained by Doulu Immortal Palace, many other demons were present, and the seal not only failed to fully suppress the Ice Demons but instead was gradually pushed back.

Especially with a mountain-sized Nine-Headed Netherworld Serpent emerging from Yuan Dong, with a hideous appearance, its body like white bones and decaying flesh entwined together, overflowing with a grayish-white dead Fiendish Qi, its mere appearance drove all vitality away.

It held up the Immortal Palace, the terrifying dead Fiendish Qi dispersing, even causing some cracks on the base of the palace, the Earth Vein Power rapidly disappearing, as if the earth was being killed.

"The avatar of Great Heavenly Demon Extreme Evil!"

The truly great person of Hong Fu Sect was battling with his Mysterious Dragon mount, suppressing a black and red Divine Repository Demon, making it shriek repeatedly, soon to defeat it, but upon seeing this Nine-Headed Serpent, his face suddenly turned pale, "How could this be, isn’t it fighting with the old ancestors in the Extreme North Icefield?"

And it wasn’t just it.

At the same time, from Yuan Dong, came waves of terrifying demonic qi, making everyone feel as if plunged into an ice cave.
