Chapter 32 The Fall of Chunyang
Deep within the turbulent void, a three-colored lotus platform seals off heaven and earth.
There is no passage of time, no replenishment of spiritual energy, only endless gales and a despairing aura of slaughter.
"Snap—!"
A crisp cracking sound rang out sharply in the deathly silence of the cage.
The once impregnable black and yellow light barrier surrounding the Eastern King Duke finally succumbed to the pressure and cracked open with a hideous fissure.
The central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, although one of the five innate banners and unparalleled in defense, ultimately requires vast magical power to activate.
Now, trapped in this void of death, with neither heaven above nor earth below, we are unable to draw upon even the slightest bit of the earth's energy.
Despite his peak Great Luo Golden Immortal level, Dong Wang Gong struggled to maintain his strength against Kunpeng's ferocious attack, which contained the law of destruction, until he was finally exhausted.
"puff-
'
As the last golden lotus shattered into specks of light under the dark edge of the Avici Sword, the Eastern King's body trembled violently, and he spat out a stream of golden blood mixed with fragments of his internal organs.
He crashed heavily against the void barrier like a kite with a broken string. The apricot-yellow flag in his hand dimmed, let out a mournful cry, and shrank back to the size of a palm.
lost.
A complete and utter defeat.
"Kunpeng—you damned beast—"
The Eastern King slumped in the void, his hair disheveled, his eyes bloodshot, staring intently at the approaching figure in green robes, the resentment in his eyes almost tangible.
"You have severed my path, destroyed my foundation, and today you will annihilate my true spirit!"
"Even if I die, I won't let you get away with this!!"
In his desperate situation, a crazed, sinister smile appeared on Dong Wanggong's face.
An extremely violent aura suddenly erupted from the depths of his broken body.
His body expanded rapidly like an inflating balloon, and his previously weak primordial spirit ignited with a raging fire of primordial energy. A terrifying wave, capable of destroying the void within a million miles, was brewing wildly!
Blow up!
The self-destruction of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, who was once the leader of male immortals, was so powerful that even a Quasi-Saint would be blown to smithereens or even seriously injured if he was not careful!
"You want to drag me down with you? Eastern King, you overestimate yourself."
Faced with this deadly attack that would make even ordinary powerful beings pale, Kunpeng remained indifferent, without even pausing for a moment.
It was as if all of this was within his expectations.
"Before me, you don't even have the right to decide your own death!"
"Purifying White Lotus, suppress the primordial spirit!"
Kunpeng points with one hand.
"Buzz—"
The twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus, suspended at the top of the void, suddenly spun, and an incomparably thick, holy white light, like a sword of divine punishment, instantly pierced through the void and precisely covered the Eastern King Duke's body, which was about to explode!
Within this white light lies the supreme Dao law that purifies all things and calms malevolent energy.
Dongwanggong felt that his originally boiling and violent primordial spirit, under the illumination of this white light, was as if a basin of ten-thousand-year-old icy water had been poured on it, and it instantly froze!
That resolute thought that was about to explode was forcibly purified and suppressed!
"No—this is impossible! My primordial spirit—"
To his horror, Dongwanggong discovered that he had lost control of his body and spirit, and could not even self-destruct!
"The Black Lotus of Destruction, devouring all things!"
Kunpeng gave him no chance to breathe, and suddenly pressed down with his other hand.
The ninth-grade world-destroying black lotus below suddenly transformed into a huge black vortex, radiating a heart-palpitating power of devouring and destruction, instantly swallowing up the swollen body of the Eastern King Duke!
"ah-!!!"
The final, piercing scream abruptly ended.
Within that vortex, it was as if an invisible millstone was turning. In just a moment, the physical body, primordial spirit, and even the pure innate yang essence of the Eastern King Duke were completely crushed and refined.
A generation of innate saints, the head of male immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor, perished, unable to escape even a trace of his true spirit, and completely dissipated into the world.
The void returned to deathly silence.
With a wave of his sleeve, Kunpeng retrieved the three lotus platforms.
At this moment, three objects radiating dazzling light floated before him.
The first item, naturally, was that dark yellow command flag—the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag.
Having lost the blessing of its master's magic, the flag's light dimmed, and it floated quietly, yet it still exuded a defensive aura as heavy as the earth.
"My darling."
Kunpeng reached out and took the command flag into his hand, gently stroking it.
"With this flag, even if I leave the lotus platform, I will have top-notch defensive means. If I can gather all five flags in the future and set up the Innate Five Elements Grand Array, its power will probably be no less than that of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array."
He nodded in satisfaction and put it into his sleeve.
The second item was a gleaming golden cane—a dragon-head cane.
This is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and also a token representing the authority of the head of male immortals.
Although Kunpeng looked down on this so-called title of the head of male immortals, the cane itself was made of extraordinary material and was imbued with the merits bestowed by the Dao Ancestor. If used for refining weapons or striking people, it would be an invaluable weapon.
"It's better than nothing." Kunpeng casually put it away.
When Kunpeng's gaze fell on the third piece of spoils, his usually calm and collected eyes suddenly lit up, even flashing with an undisguised surprise.
It was a string of beads that emitted a five-colored glow and faintly carried the sound of ocean waves.
There are twelve in total, each perfectly round and translucent, seemingly containing a vast ocean within, incredibly heavy and extraordinary.
"This is... the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl?!"
Kunpeng grabbed the string of beads in his hand, probed it with his divine sense, and was overjoyed.
"It really is the innate spiritual treasure, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl! And there are a full twelve of them!"
As far as he knew, the complete set of Dinghai Pearls consisted of thirty-six pearls, combining offense and defense, and could also be used to smash people, possessing immense power.
Of the original number of Heavenly Pills, twenty-four were supposed to be obtained by the Tongtian Sect Leader at the Treasure Distribution Rock and bestowed upon Zhao Gongming, while the whereabouts of the remaining twelve were unknown.
Unexpectedly, the Eastern King, as the ruler of the East Sea and having occupied countless Yuanhui in the Purple Mansion Continent, actually found the twelve lost Sea-Stabilizing Pearls deep in the East Sea!
"No wonder the Eastern King was able to establish himself in the East Sea back then; it turns out there was such an opportunity."
"It's a pity he didn't recognize the value of gold inlaid with jade, or perhaps he hadn't had time to refine it yet, and kept it hidden on his person without ever using it. Now it's all benefiting me!"
These twelve Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, though only half a set, are still enough to rank among the top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
If another twenty-four beads can be found in the future to complete the set, it will definitely be a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and may even be among the innate supreme treasures.
"This harvest has been truly exceptionally bountiful!"
"Not only did we eliminate the threat of the Eastern King Duke and seize the Apricot Yellow Banner, but we also unexpectedly obtained the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl."
Kunpeng was in a great mood.
He did not rush to leave, but stood in the void, with an obscure and incomprehensible Dao fluctuation emanating from his body.
"Devouring the Great Dao, Merging!"
He opened his mouth and inhaled, swallowing the purest primordial energy extracted from the body and spirit of the Eastern King Duke by the Black Lotus of Annihilation.
This includes the entire cultivation of the Eastern King Duke, as well as the most precious innate pure yang energy.
"Boom—"
—
As this massive energy entered his body, the magical power within the Kunpeng surged once more.
His cultivation, which had already reached the peak of the early stage of Quasi-Saint, was further advanced under the impetus of this power, and his foundation became even more unfathomable.
In particular, the Yin-Yang principle within his body, after being replenished by the purest Yang essence of this prince, caused the Yin-Yang fish to flow at an accelerated speed, achieving perfect harmony and unimpeded balance.
"call----"
After a long while, Kunpeng exhaled a long breath, his eyes regained their usual calm and his divine light subsided.
But he knew that this was not a place to stay for long.
The Eastern King Duke was personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor. Although he was a discarded son, he was still entrusted with the Mandate of Heaven.
Now that he has completely annihilated them, even their true spirits have been scattered, the karma behind this is no small matter.
If the sage discovers this, trouble is inevitable.
"Heavenly secrets are concealed, and cause and effect are severed!"
Kunpeng waved his hands repeatedly, unleashing countless spells that completely disrupted the void within a radius of tens of thousands of miles.
Furthermore, with the help of the Golden Wheel of Merit and the White Lotus of Purification, all the remaining traces, traces, and even the secrets and causes of heaven were completely washed away.
After all this was done, even if a sage were to personally arrive, the calculations would be completely chaotic. He could only calculate that the Eastern King Duke died in this place, but he could not figure out who had committed the murder.
"Hmph, Di Jun, Tai Yi."
"You will all take the blame for the death of the Eastern King."
Kunpeng sneered.
Everyone knows that the Heavenly Army is pressing on the border, and Taiyi Chaos Bell is chasing down the Eastern King.
Now that the Eastern King is dead, who would suspect him, the demon master who is "in seclusion" in the Northern Underworld?
With a flicker, the Kunpeng transformed into an almost imperceptible fish, slipping into a rift in the void and silently departing from the far reaches of the East Sea.
