Chapter 428: Divine War, Conflict of the Imperial Weapon!
“No!!”
Looking at the Sacred Forbidden Weapon falling towards the Profound Sky Hall, Nether Yin Master and the others were almost crushed. Even so, they were completely helpless.
The three Holy Forbidden Weapons, each carrying a destructive warhead, were enough to completely destroy the remaining Profound Sky Hall, with no doubt about it!
“Big Brother, the situation is urgent, should we immediately take action?”
Inside the Deacon Chamber, the Second Deacon looked at the Grand Deacon, his expression extremely conflicted.
Currently, the only ones capable of resolving the crisis were the powerful individuals in the Deacon Chamber. However, according to their Heavenly Dao oath, they had already lost their right to intervene.
“There’s no need!”
Xuan Qiubai said solemnly. Despite his calm demeanor, he couldn’t help but clench his fists tightly.
“But…?”
“There’s no ‘but.’ The Profound Sky Hall won’t perish, and the one who will suffer next will be that little fellow.”
Upon hearing these words, the Second Deacon’s eyes widened instantly!
“Could it be…the one truly intervene?”
At this realization, the Second Deacon lowered his voice cautiously, his face filled with deep respect.
It was hard to fathom just how terrifying a presence could be that even a Sage Eighth Layer expert dared not discuss it aloud!
Three hundred miles away, Zhou Tong slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the dust to settle.
“It should be over now.”
He said indifferently, but as he spoke, his state of no-ego spontaneously activated, showing him what the future would look like.
“Hmm?”
He knitted his brows suddenly, because in the future he could see, the Profound Sky Hall still existed.
Furthermore, all other possible futures collapsed simultaneously, leaving only one future: the survival of the Profound Sky Hall, a destiny set in stone!
Such situations were rare, and there was only one explanation: a supreme external force had intervened, preserving the Profound Sky Hall with extraordinary power.
“Boom!!”
As expected, at the moment the Profound Sky Hall was about to be destroyed, an unexpected event occurred.
An extremely powerful aura erupted suddenly, bursting out from the center of the Profound Sky Hall. With just one sweep of its light, it decomposed all the Sacred Forbidden Weapons, turning even the spirit talismans embedded within them into ashes.
“What…what is this?”
This scene shocked everyone. Just when it seemed like the Profound Sky Hall was about to be destroyed, an unexpected turn occurred!
Those were the Sacred Forbidden Weapons, objects so formidable that even a Sage’s self-destruction couldn’t stand against them. How could they be melted by a single beam of light?
Indeed, they were melted, as if snow had fallen into boiling water, with no resistance at all. One could certainly say that the level of this light absolutely surpassed the limits set by the Heavenly Dao!
Just then, the answer appeared. The ground split open, revealing a small, purple-golden tower breaking through the soil.
This tower stood nine stories tall, each layer glowing with divine light and splendid colors, as if an absolute world expert resided within.
Even Jade Linglong was stunned by this. Then, she quickly recovered, her expression immediately shifting from despair to overwhelming joy.
“Good, good, good, this is truly excellent. Let everyone see this clearly; this is the true strength of the Profound Sky Hall. That little fellow is doomed today!”
At this moment, no one paid attention to her words because all gazes were drawn to the tower. It felt as if they were beholding a deity.
“What is happening? I sense absolutely no aura, yet I feel an overwhelming urge to worship?”
“I’m the same, what kind of weapon could this be? It definitely surpasses the Sacred Artifacts!”
“Could it be a Holy King Weapon? Or maybe a Great Sage Weapon?”
Upon hearing this, some younger experts said incredulously.
But the old generation of experts quickly dismissed it.
“My heavens, could it be a Quasi-Emperor Weapon?”
“No, it’s a genuine Imperial Weapon. I’ve seen it in ancient texts…seems like… the Primordial Chaos Tower!”
Upon hearing this, it felt like thunder had struck, causing everyone to tremble and find it hard to believe their ears.
This was truly an Imperial Weapon, and it was a complete one at that. They were witnessing a myth today!
In an era where even Holy Kings didn’t make appearances, an Imperial Weapon was an unmatched existence.
As long as the divinity within the weapon awakened, it could unleash a strike comparable to a Great Emperor’s, something no mighty warrior could withstand. There would be no time for resistance or escape, leaving them only to turn into dust.
And now, the Primordial Chaos Tower had clearly awakened. In its presence, Zhou Tong was no different from an ant.
Facing an ant’s provocation, the Imperial Weapon would certainly eliminate it!
Sure enough, a beam of light then shot out from the tip of the tower, locking onto Zhou Tong, three hundred miles away.
Though the light carried no killing intent, its momentum was still bone-chilling. If not for Zhou Tong’s Imperial-level spirit, he would have been completely destroyed mentally!
“Mirror, time to face the real deal!”
He took a deep breath and called out inwardly.
“Hmph! So what if it is? In front of me, it’s nothing more than a mere clay pigeon! I already said, that fellow will become my chief eunuch!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong couldn’t help but find it amusing, and his worries lessened.
He faintly remembered that the Slashing麟 Mirror had indeed mentioned the Primordial Chaos Tower before. They met again much sooner than expected.
“Look, that fellow is still smiling. He’s already locked by the Imperial Might, doesn’t he even know fear?”
Someone noticed Zhou Tong’s expression and said it aloud, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.
“Man, this kid sure has nerves of steel. In my case, I’d probably have pissed myself by now.”
“I think he’s accepted his fate. With an Imperial Weapon on the move, not even the powerful figures behind him can save him unless they too possess an Imperial Weapon!”
As everyone talked, Zhou Tong paid no heed to them, listening only to the mirror’s voice.
“Take to the skies, I’ll make that fellow realize who the true King of Weapons is!”
The four Slashing麟 Mirrors said seriously. Under the suppression of Heavenly Dao, even an Imperial Weapon couldn’t recklessly reveal itself. Overdoing it would surely trigger the Emperor’s trial, involving the entire Central Continent!
“I understand.”
Without another word, Zhou Tong directly activated the Movement Art, shooting into the high heavens at an unbelievable speed.
“He’s fleeing!”
On the Ascension Platform, everyone finally exhaled a sigh of relief.
It seemed the boy did know fear. No matter how extraordinary he was today, his fate would still be death!
Thinking of this, many couldn’t help but feel genuinely elated. Once Zhou Tong was eliminated, their juniors would have one fewer formidable rival in the Hundred Sects Battle!
“Useless, useless. This is the consequence of opposing the Profound Sky Hall. Your Li Family will have to collect his corpse. Once he’s gone, your family will be destroyed regardless!”
Jade Linglong said with unrestrained glee. Having endured so much humiliation earlier, she finally got her vengeance. This time, nothing could possibly go wrong!
Yet, she couldn’t foresee that without surprises, one was surely on the way!
Suddenly, the Primordial Chaos Tower began to gently rotate in the air. Each of its nine levels emitted light, which converged into a single beam as small as a fist, then soared toward the sky!
This was the real killing move. The void itself was smoothly split open, unstoppable and devastating!
Even a Peak Sage blocking the way would definitely be wiped out effortlessly, without even the slightest ripple.
And that beam moved at lightning speed, quickly catching up to Zhou Tong. It was inescapable, unpreventable, and fatal!
Yet, at this moment, a myriad of rays of light shot out from the mirror inside him, pressing down against that beam!
“Get lost!”
