409: I'll smother you with one punch!

Chen Heng's consciousness was somewhat blurry; he knew he had truly reached his limit.

It wasn't his Physical Body that had reached its limit, but his spirit.

The successive Optimizations and the strength and speed that had increased by a thousand and twenty-four times were constantly testing Chen Heng's willpower.

The anesthetic effect of Yellow Springs of the Netherworld - a type of potent poison was already negligible, and the bone-deep pain was eroding Chen Heng's will.

He had to finish this quickly; if he tried to absorb two more mouthfuls of the root projection, Chen Heng might really be finished.

"The game is over. I will find your main body and then kill you."

Chen Heng stared intently at the root projection beneath him, his tone filled with murderous intent.

"Remember my face; the next time we meet will be your death day."

"That's just your delusion. This world was created by me..."

The root projection also regained its composure, looking coldly at Chen Heng on its body.

"So what? You want to play some Ultimate Return, but I won't agree."

Chen Heng concentrated all his power on his ancestral shaman of fire Arm, causing the entire capital to sink.

"Whether it's the Yang Aspect or the Yin Side of the world, I'm in charge. Their life or death is up to me."

"What kind of thing are you, thinking you can decide the life and death of a race?"

"Then I'll let you die first!"

Gathering a thousand and twenty-four times his strength, the Power of the Ancestral Witch, and all the deuterium and tritium in his body, Chen Heng unleashed the most powerful punch he had ever thrown.

The sound of the entire world vanished, and the dark sky was torn apart at this moment.

The vast capital was reduced to dust under this punch, and even the ground beneath their feet was vaporized for hundreds of meters.

Including Chang Yutian and Helian Jinming, there were no living things left in the capital.

Of course, except for Chen Heng, who was reduced to a mere skeleton by his own punch.

[Killed Root Demon, Optimization count +935]

The dragon skin pouch at Chen Heng's waist also completely shattered at this moment, and its contents fell out one after another.

Jingle~

The heart of the gods slowly floated up and flew towards a certain direction.

Soon, the heart of the gods stopped above a scorched area.

The heart of the gods spun rapidly, and three roaring shadows appeared inside it.

It was Ox Can Speak, Intestine Pulling, and Rakshasa, who had assimilated with Chang Yutian!

With a clang, the heart of the gods fell to the ground, but no one went to pick it up... After moving the entire Qiyang City into the Jade Fan Kingdom, most of the Xuan Alliance stayed behind to guard Qiyang City.

Only Bai Jun, Luo Shuo, and a few others rushed back to where Qiyang City used to be.

"Big Brother Chen... he should be fine, right?" Luo Shuo was extremely anxious now; the aura from the capital just now had almost caused his spirit to collapse.

One could imagine how terrifying the existence Chen Heng was facing.

"He should be fine..."

Bai Jun hadn't finished speaking when he saw the previously dark sky slowly dissipate, and sunlight once again shone upon the ground.

"It's over?"

Not only Bai Jun and the others noticed, but also Helian Tie and others who had been ambushed outside the capital.

..." Only now did Helian Tie realize what kind of helper the Hong Family father and son had found for themselves.

"Your Highness, oh no, Your Majesty, please." Hong Feng smiled slightly, extending his hand in a gesture of invitation.

Helian Tie took a deep breath and waved the horsewhip in his hand.

But the horse under him refused to move, constantly shaking its head and snorting.

"Never mind, don't make it difficult for an animal." Helian Tie stopped Hong Lie, who was about to whip the horse, shook his head, and dismounted.

The scorching heat emanating from the front made even him uncomfortable, let alone an animal like a horse.

But just as he stepped into the capital's perimeter, an almost despairing aura enveloped him.

Helian Tie stumbled and fell to his knees, cold sweat streaming down his face.

"What... what is this?"

When Helian Tie looked up at the source of the aura, that glance almost cost him his life.

He saw a skeleton covered in strange blood-colored patterns standing in the center of the capital, and a continuous stream of terrifying pressure and aura emanated from that skeleton.

That skeleton was Chen Heng, but his Physical Body had not been restored.

It wasn't that Chen Heng didn't want to restore it, but that he temporarily couldn't.

He was currently squatting in the Sea of Blood Hell within his own body.

"Master Chen, what happened to you?" Cao Jihan, seeing Chen Heng appear in the Sea of Blood Hell, immediately trotted over.

"It's nothing, I'll be fine after a short rest."

Chen Heng was covered in cracks from head to toe, looking as if he could shatter into pieces at any moment.

"It felt good, but the price is a bit high..."

Chen Heng sighed, looking at his cracked body.

He hadn't expected that one day he would reach his limit due to insufficient Soul strength.

The successive Optimizations had caused his Soul to fall behind; no matter how strong his willpower, if his Soul reached its limit, he would be finished.

Fortunately, the Sea of Blood Hell was his own Sea of Consciousness, and his Soul could slowly recover there.

Moreover, Chen Heng could still use the optimization system in the Sea of Blood Hell; he would rest and then Optimize his Soul.

That's right, Optimize his Soul.

Only now did Chen Heng discover that once he arrived in the Sea of Blood Hell, the optimization system could Optimize his Soul.

Outside, it could only Optimize his Physical Body, while his Soul was... "Damn it, wasn't Chaos transformation supposed to allow the Soul to leave the body..."

Chen Heng slapped his thigh hard, almost breaking it.

He had completely disregarded the matter of the Soul's Chaos transformation back then, which led to his current state.

"Never mind, let's rest first, I'm exhausted..."

With a wave of his hand, a large bed immediately condensed in the Sea of Blood Hell. Chen Heng moved his body onto the bed and closed his eyes... What was just a moment in the Sea of Blood Hell had been a full day in the outside world.

Bai Jun and the others also arrived at the capital and saw the skeleton covered in blood-colored, eerie patterns.

"It's fine..."

Feeling the surging vitality from the skeleton, Bai Jun let out a long breath.

"Big Brother Chen probably hasn't restored his Physical Body yet, but he should be fine after some time."

Hearing Bai Jun's words, everyone also let out a sigh of relief.

When they saw Chen Heng's skeleton, they had thought Chen Heng had perished along with that thing.

Especially Luo Shuo, who was about to wail but was covered by Bai Jun's hand.

"Let's not leave yet; don't let anyone else get close to Big Brother Chen's body."

Bai Jun said, looking at Helian Tie and the remaining Aristocratic Families not far away.

They were like vultures circling carrion, sickening to behold.

"I understand." Luo Shuo nodded and immediately contacted the Demon Emperor through one of the Golden Crow's innate Divine Abilities.
