NOVPUBThe momentum surged upwards, confronting the three great elders of the Divine Maiden Palace head-on, as the people below watched the scene in shock.
"Do you truly intend to make an enemy of my Divine Maiden Palace?" Heaven Inheriting Elder asked sternly.
"This is the headquarters of the Divine Maiden Palace, you’d better think it through."
"How can you even ask me that?
I brought Gongsun Hongtian here, only for you to renege on our agreement.
With people like you ruling the Red Dust Palace, it’s absolutely revolting," Xu Zimei shook his head and said.
"If you are willing to cease, my Divine Maiden Palace will naturally compensate you.
If you persist in your obstinacy, then today you will be suppressed alongside him," Heaven Inheriting Elder snorted coldly.
"Just with you?" Zimo chuckled lightly.
He snorted coldly, and the Tyrant Shadow in his right hand erupted with endless Blade Intent as he charged towards Heaven Inheriting Elder.
Half the firmament was stirred up by the Blade Intent.
Meanwhile, Gongsun Hongtian also attacked Ancestor Ming.
In the end, only Chaos and Ancestor Yingtian were left battling together.
The firmament was divided into three battlefields, with others below unable to qualify to join the battle.
The cultivation techniques practiced by the Divine Maiden Palace were quite peculiar.
Their cultivation technique was simply called the Eighteen Realms.
That is to say, the so-called six senses, six roots, and six dusts.
Collectively known as the Eighteen Realms.
Once a person’s Eighteen Realms had been ground away, they would become a soulless shell, no more than walking dead.
This is the strongest aspect of this cultivation technique.
Usually, when the Divine Maiden Palace would punish some criminals, they would use this technique.
Eye consciousness, ear consciousness, nose consciousness, tongue consciousness, body consciousness, and mental consciousness, these are the six senses.
The faculties of sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and thought, these are the six roots.
The dusts of form, sound, smell, taste, touch, and dharmas, these are the six dusts.
These Eighteen Realms represent the human body and the human mind.
At this moment, one could see eighteen different kinds of gases swirling around Heaven Inheriting Elder.
Above the firmament, he was surrounded by eighteen gases evolving, merging and separating.
Eventually, they converged into an immense barrier that enveloped both him and Xu Zimei.
"Here, I can strip you of everything," Heaven Inheriting Elder said indifferently.
With a wave of his right hand, it was as if the entire firmament had collapsed.
Countless gases bore down on Zimo.
Zimo raised the Tyrant Shadow high in his hands and slashed directly through it.
A resounding "boom" was heard, as if a gigantic mushroom cloud had exploded, engulfing the entire firmament within it.
Space was completely buried, with countless fragmented pieces falling down.
"Strip the six senses," Heaven Inheriting Elder bellowed.
Numerous gases enfolded around Zimo.
At that moment, Zimo felt as if the entire world had vanished from his consciousness.
He could not see, hear, or even touch or feel anything; he seemed to have fallen into an abysmally infinite darkness.
"So this is the Eighteen Realms," he murmured to himself.
But he couldn’t hear his own words anymore.
Zimo couldn’t perceive anything from the outside world, feeling as if his consciousness had been locked away.
He slowly sat up, and the third eye on his forehead gradually opened.
"Heavenly Punishment Divine Pupil," that was the divine eye Zimo had opened at that moment.
Its function was not just to possess supreme Thunderbolt attacks, but also to see through all illusions.
Thunderbolt is the nemesis of many illusions.
Being utterly yin and utterly yang, this is the strongest attacking state of thunderbolts.
The so-called Eighteen Realms didn’t really strip people of their six senses.
It merely used an illusionary realm to block a person’s perception, a high-level illusion that was hard to detect.
The moment the Heavenly Punishment Divine Pupil opened, a faint purple arc of electricity flickered between Xu Zimei’s brows.
Within this electric arc, the vast Thunder Sea brewed, and then the false illusion met the thunderbolt and instantly dissipated like smoke.
Watching Xu Zimei’s state from the outside, the Heaven Inheriting Elder saw that Xu Zimei had no ability to resist and could only be manipulated at his whim.
Just as he was approaching Xu Zimei, suddenly a surge of thunderbolt shot out from the center of Xu Zimei’s brows.
It pierced through his chest, and the torrent of thunderbolt sent him flying.
Xu Zimei slowly stood up, endless gray thunderbolts surging through the Heavenly Punishment Divine Pupil at his brow.
He looked towards the Heaven Inheriting Elder, who was shaking as he stood up from the midst of the thunderbolts.
A large hole had been pierced through his chest.
Even the blood seemed to have been blasted into ash-purple by the thunderbolt.
But the opponent did not die; at this level, even if one’s True Fate was shattered, there was still a chance of resurrection.
And this was only a wound of such a degree.
"I really underestimated you," the Heaven Inheriting Elder sneered with a grin.
"You indeed are surprisingly weak," Xu Zimei shook his head and said.
The Heaven Inheriting Elder huffed coldly. The fact that the opponent could easily break his Eighteen Realms had also somewhat surprised him.
This was the Cultivation Technique left by the World-weary Divine Girl, which he had practiced for many years and believed he had mastered its essence.
"World-Weary Beast, come forth," the Heaven Inheriting Elder roared again.
The power of the beast’s True Fate rolled behind him.
A massive beast’s head emerged from the void, followed soon by its body and limbs.
This beast’s head was immensely large, and its entire body was a pure red.
Its back and arms glowed as if they were made of molten lava, excessively heated.
There were four steel-like barbs on each side of its back.
Its head resembled that of a monkey, with a strand of white long hair fluttering on both cheeks and the top of the head.
The ears were long and thin, each contour reflecting against itself.
The moment the World-Weary Beast appeared, it glared viciously at Xu Zimei.
It leaped a hundred meters high and pounced towards Xu Zimei.
Xu Zimei raised his Curved Blade to meet it, and the beast bit down on the blade, tugging fiercely.
The World-Weary Beast’s strength was astonishing, it bit down on the Tyrant Shadow and flung Xu Zimei away.
Xu Zimei’s retreating figure did a somersault in mid-air, steadying himself.
As the World-Weary Beast once again charged at him.
Xu Zimei swung his right hand, and rolling Demonic Qi burst forth from his body.
"Demonic Ten Skills, Third Technique, Three: Earth Demon Technique.
All disasters befall."
As Xu Zimei’s voice fell, the entire surroundings of the Divine Maiden Palace began to change.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared, a Mad Wind and heavy rain took over.
All disasters swarmed in.
Earthquakes, floods, bloodbaths, sandstorms, hurricanes, volcanoes, tsunamis...
All disasters submerged the Divine Maiden Palace, as well as the World-Weary Beast and the Heaven Inheriting Elder.
The force of nature was unstoppable, and though it was said ’man can overcome heaven,’ it wasn’t something that could be easily stopped either.
In the midst of all disasters, the roars of the Heaven Inheriting Elder were drowned out.
Xu Zimei looked on indifferently at all this.
After the disasters passed and the storm dissipated, the previously shattered sky was clear as ever, and the Heaven Inheriting Elder’s figure lay in the void.
Off to the side, Ancestor Ming and Ancestor Yingtian, who were in a fierce battle with Gongsun Hongtian, hurried over.
They rescued the Heaven Inheriting Elder, whose True Fate had shattered.
