644: The lament of fate

Buzz~

The Great Dao trembled, seemingly cheering.

Above the Yaoguang Domain, within a territory spanning hundreds of millions of miles, an invisible Great Dao Intent pressed down upon the entire domain.

Within the Yaoguang Domain, every successful cultivator felt the changes in the Great Dao between heaven and earth, and their minds were shocked as they looked toward the direction of the Ancient Capital.

Above the Ancient Capital.

Screech!

Wails sounded from the depths of its Bloodline. The enormous Three-Headed Scorched Peng, whose black feathers burned like black inferno, suddenly felt its Bloodline tremble at this instant.

This signified that the owner of that gaze had arrived...“Moo~”

Beside the Three-Headed Scorched Peng, the Primordial Mythical Elephant covered in gray Qi let out a low moan, bowing its elephant head as if welcoming the owner of that gaze to this place.

On the other side, the majestic Azure Lion, which was usually extraordinary, no longer possessed its arrogant Qi. Its azure fur trembled constantly as it tried to overcome the boundless pressure emanating from the Bloodline, but it was all in vain.

At the same time, Dao Lord Jiuyuan and Dao Lord Mocheng were also like this, lowering their heads, not daring to look directly at the Great Dao's Incarnation.

In an instant, the five figures simultaneously stopped fighting. In such a situation, who had the time to care about anything else?

“We were unaware of the Heavenly Venerate's arrival and failed to greet you from afar. We humbly beg for forgiveness.”

In the air, the Three-Headed Scorched Peng struggled to resist the throbbing in its heart, keeping its peng head lowered, not daring to look up.

Although it had never truly witnessed the Heavenly Venerate's True Body, or the Great Dao's Dharma Idol, nor had it seen the true Heavenly Might of a Heavenly Venerate's strike.

But thousands of years ago, it had exchanged blows with the then immensely powerful Dao Lord Yuheng.

Even Dao Lord Yuheng, a peak Dao Lord at the Late Stage of Dao Integration who forced them to retreat single-handedly back then, did not possess such majesty.

Just a single gaze and a wisp of Qi were enough to suppress the entire domain, making it impossible for him, a top-tier Primordial Exotic Great Demon, to muster the slightest thought of resistance.

This could only be achieved by a Heavenly Venerate... Scorched Peng felt uneasy in his heart.

He wondered why the matters here had attracted the Heavenly Venerate's presence.

To a Heavenly Venerate, what did their schemes and struggles even amount to?

The focus of a Heavenly Venerate should be the ethereal Immortal Realm, or perhaps the Myriad Worlds.

“Heavenly Venerate?”

“Haha~”

“You have good judgment, but...”

Above the Long Sky, a magnificent voice carrying a hint of laughter descended.

“This voice... this Qi...”

“Why does it sound so much like Fellow Daoist Mo...”

Lady Yao Guang, whose face was pale, was suddenly shocked, and a somewhat absurd thought arose in her mind.

As if possessed by an inexplicable urge, Lady Yao Guang slowly raised her head and looked towards the boundless high sky.

“Fellow Daoist Mo!”

Lady Yao Guang's expression was greatly shaken; for a moment, she couldn't control her emotions and cried out in surprise.

“What?”

As Lady Yao Guang cried out in alarm, the Three-Headed Scorched Peng suddenly felt an endless sense of panic in its heart.

Subconsciously, its three peng heads lifted simultaneously, looking towards the boundless high sky.

It saw the figure of the Black Giant Serpent suddenly appear: it was over a hundred thousand zhang in size, covered in countless Mysterious Patterned Scales, its body coiled, its terrifying head lowered, and its sun-like pupils gazing downwards.

Behind that massive figure, the Great Dao followed; Wind, Rain, Clouds, and Thunder danced and leaped lightly behind it. The Void Realm hummed, and the Great Dao chanted.

“It's you!”

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng's six peng eyes suddenly narrowed.

Since he had already decided to capture the Serpent Demon of the Chaotic Sea after suppressing Yao Guang, he had naturally gained some understanding of it.

Although it was just a fleeting glance and their first meeting.

But he already knew that this Black Giant Serpent was the Zhou Family's Old Ancestor mentioned by the younger generation, the Serpent Demon Mo Xuan.

“How could it be you...”

“Why would it be you...”

“How can it possibly be you...”

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng's heart was violently shaken; astonishment, confusion, and dread instantly turned into boundless fear.

He originally had no grievances with this Serpent Demon, but ever since he treated it as prey, a subtle shift had occurred between the two unrelated parties, and this subtle shift was now, at this unexpected moment, completely laid bare.

“Damn it!”

“Run!”

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng made its decision in a brief instant. The reaction just now had already betrayed his intentions.

If he didn't escape, the consequences would be unpredictable.

Screech!

Boom!

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng flapped its wings.

Powerful Demonic Qi seemed intent on breaking through the invisible Great Dao and the Barrier of Heaven and Earth, fleeing into the Void Realm.

“Your intentions are impure.”

At this moment.

The massive figure coiled above the Long Sky looked leisurely toward him.

Its tone was calm.

But the invisible Great Dao Intent spread throughout the entire Domain Territory suddenly became heavy at that instant.

Buzz~

Scorched Peng flapped its wings.

Yet, it failed to break open the Void Realm.

“You attacked members of the Zhou Family; he will definitely not spare you!”

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng suddenly roared.

It no longer harbored the delusion of escaping into the Void Realm.

Boom!

The enormous black wings vibrated rapidly.

The massive Three-Headed Scorched Peng transformed into a black shooting star and fled toward the edge of the sky.

At the same time.

Dao Lord Jiuyuan and Dao Lord Mocheng simultaneously felt a shiver in their hearts.

Subconsciously, they fled outwards.

Only the Primordial Mythical Elephant and the Azure Lion remained in place.

The Willingness to Submit within their Bloodline made it impossible for them to restrain themselves.

They could not generate the thought of escaping.

“Perish.”

Right then.

Above the Long Sky.

The Black Giant Serpent lightly spoke.

Buzz~

The Great Dao trembled, and the world changed color.

Boundless Dark Clouds appeared out of thin air, covering the sky of the entire Yaoguang Domain Territory.

The Dark Clouds gathered, resembling the end of days.

Beneath this Apocalyptic Scene.

Three shooting stars, difficult for Divine Sense to track, sped rapidly beneath the Dark Clouds, heading toward the outer reaches of the sky.

Crackle~

A clap of thunder sounded within the boundless Dark Clouds.

Violet-black Divine Lightning roamed the sky, slowly coalescing into three ten-thousand-zhang Lightning Spears.

Hanging upside down in the sky.

These were Lightning Spears, and also Divine Spears.

The Divine Spears, condensed from ten-thousand-zhang Divine Lightning, slowly pierced the clouds, revealing themselves between heaven and earth.

As if a Spiritual Peak had fallen from the Immortal Realm.

However, what they contained was not boundless Immortal Spiritual Qi, but destruction, ultimate silence, and inescapable fate.

“Screech!”

The peng bird cried out.

Like the lament of fate.

Beneath the Dark Clouds.

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng's speed had already reached its maximum.

But it was constantly unable to escape the lock of the invisible Great Dao Intent.

The Divine Spears hanging high above the Long Sky were true Death Warrants.

“No, no, no!”

Despair gradually filled the heart of the Three-Headed Scorched Peng.

He hadn't even done anything yet, so how could he end up like this?

“Fate is unfair!”

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng roared internally.

Boom!

In the next instant.

A ten-thousand-zhang violet-black Lightning Spear descended from the sky.

It pierced through the massive body of the black peng bird.

Carrying the enormous peng body, it plunged into the boundless Barren Earth below.

Boom!

Like a meteor descending from the heavens.

The earth cracked open.

The Power of the Great Dao of Destruction surged from the Divine Spear.

It submerged into the struggling body of the black peng bird.

“Screech!”

Wails filled with endless pain echoed between heaven and earth.

Boom!

Lightning radiated in all directions.

The Three-Headed Scorched Peng's aura rapidly weakened.

Its True Spirit continuously perished.

Before long.

It had already stopped struggling.

“Dead...”
