245: The target of everyone's criticism, the beginning of death.

Boom!!!

The withered wooden staff in the hand of Old Monster Cang Xuan was no longer an ordinary object; dao runes flowed upon it.

The great power of a Half-step Void Return was poured into it, making it seem to manifest as a Law, suppressing down towards the top of Shen Yuanmo's head!

With this strike, Old Monster Cang Xuan exhausted all his strength, pushing his Void Return Domain to the limit.

Wherever the staff passed, even the shattered space itself groaned and disintegrated!

"Little Beast! Put down the divine object!"

Almost at the same time, the Imperial Uncle of Great Qian, Ji Changkong, the Demon Path Colossus Ancestor Xuan Ming, Dragon Emperor Ao Guang, True Monarch Fu Hai, the Master of the Evil Nether Hall, and the Sword Venerable Solitary City Ye, the six great experts, also reacted from that extreme shock and absurdity!

Their reason was instantly swallowed by endless rage and killing intent!

"Kill!"

Ji Changkong was furious, his hair standing on end. The Nine-Dragon Golden Carriage beneath him disintegrated with a boom, turning into the purest Human Emperor Dragon Qi, merging into his body!

He struck out with his palm, and a purple-gold handprint engraved with mountains, rivers, the world, the sun, the moon, and the stars—as if the Incarnation of the Immortal Dynasty's national destiny—suppressed the ages, slamming down fiercely towards Shen Yuanmo!

"Demon Devours Heaven and Earth!"

The ten-thousand-foot demonic shadow transformed by Ancestor Xuan Ming opened its six arms, and six abyss whirlpools leading to the Nine Netherworlds merged fiercely.

A huge black hole capable of swallowing everything took shape, emitting an attractive force that made the Divine Soul tremble, intending to completely devour Shen Yuanmo along with the space around him!

"One Halberd, Shatter the Stars!"

Dragon Emperor Ao Guang pushed his demonic power to the point of burning!

The [Shatter Star Halberd] in his hand emitted a roar that shook the Divine Soul. A cold gleam at the tip of the halberd erupted once again with a supreme strike that exceeded his own limits!

True Monarch Fu Hai summoned three thousand heavenly rivers, condensing them into a water-attribute Divine Might that pierced through reality and illusion. Where the light passed, everything was stained with a layer of water vapor, then assimilated and decomposed.

The Master of the Evil Nether Hall unleashed billions of ghost fires, refining them into a pale green poisonous needle specifically for cursing the Divine Soul. It disappeared silently and eerily from everyone's perception.

Only Solitary City Ye, on his eternally icy face, apart from astonishment, actually had a hint of strange brilliance.

His Sword Intent, once again accumulated to the Peak, transformed into an invisible and intangible sword of certain death that could cut through Karma, attacking Shen Yuanmo!

Seven attacks.

Seven Soul Transformation colossi, at this moment, actually had a tacit understanding. From all directions, they sealed off all of Shen Yuanmo's retreat routes, launching a desperate strike that would destroy the heavens and the earth!

At this moment, the heavens and earth lost their voice, and all Laws groaned!

In the distance, Lin Wei, Palace Master of the Jade Wave Palace, had long been pressed hard against the ground by this world-destroying pressure, unable to move, with only endless horror in her eyes.

Luo Li beside her was even more bloodless, her Divine Soul like a candle in the wind under the scouring of this power, ready to be extinguished at any time.

However, Shen Yuanmo, who was in the center of the storm and locked tightly by the seven world-destroying killing intents, did not change his expression in the slightest.

Deep in his pupils was absolute calmness, like black ice that would never melt for ages.

His mind moved slightly.

Buzz—!

A set of ferocious divine armor, deep Chaos in color, covered his whole body in an instant amidst silent flowing light!

On the armor, complete scenes of the birth and destruction of stars in the Universe were branded!

[great five elements destruction glazed armor]!

Dao Artifact, worn!

Boom!!!

Just as the armor and his body completely merged, a terrifying Qi, deeper and more harmonious than at any time before, exploded from within Shen Yuanmo!

His aura, under the blessing of the Dao Artifact, soared wildly in a way that completely violated the common sense of Immortal cultivation!

Half-step Nascent Soul!

Nascent Soul Early Stage!

Nascent Soul Mid-stage!

Late Nascent Soul Stage!

Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage!

Finally, in the horrified eyes of everyone, his aura steadily stayed at the Peak of Nascent Soul Initial Stage!

But this aura, at the level of Dao, was far above ordinary Soul Transformation, as if a supreme war god who had walked out of the ancient primordial era, with Divine Might that covered the world!

Facing the seven attacks crushing everything from all directions, Shen Yuanmo did not choose to resist head-on.

He knew that even with the blessing of the Dao Artifact, if he took the joint strike of these seven people head-on, he would only end up with his body and soul destroyed!

Deep in his brow, covered by the dragon-horn helmet, the Delusion-Breaking Dharma Eye had already been running to the limit!

[Insight into Origin] activated!

In this core area of the Guixu Divine Palace, countless Laws were intertwined, and countless Restrictions overlapped, but in his vision, everything turned into clear lines and nodes.

Three feet directly below this seemingly ordinary broken landmass under his feet.

A tiny light spot, almost imperceptible, was slowly pulsating.

There, it was the most core and most fragile node of all the Formation and Restriction energy flows in the entire core area!

Found it.

Divine light flashed in Shen Yuanmo's eyes, and he hesitated no longer.

He ignored the withered wooden staff above his head that was enough to smash the continent into powder.

He also ignored the purple-gold handprint in front of him that suppressed the ages and came with the national destiny.

Shen Yuanmo, wearing the Chaos divine armor, simply punched out towards the ground beneath his feet!

This punch had no earth-shattering momentum, but it condensed all the strength he could mobilize at this moment.

With this punch, he poured all his understanding of the Five Elements, life and death, and the Dao of destruction, enhanced by the Dao Artifact, into it without reservation!

"Boom!!!"

The earth-shattering roar he expected did not appear.

The moment Shen Yuanmo's fist touched the ground, the entire core area of the Guixu Divine Palace, the group of broken continents that had floated for who knows how many ten thousand years, suddenly stagnated.

Time was stretched at this instant.

Immediately afterwards, with his fist as the center, visible, pure white cracks, like spider webs, spread crazily in an unstoppable posture!

Where the cracks passed, everything returned to pure white, returned to nothingness.

The next instant!

The entire core area of the Guixu Divine Palace, this cave heaven fragment opened up by ancient Immortals and existed for endless years, collapsed with a boom like a giant whose dragon bones had been instantly drained!

Extremely violent spatial turbulence!

Countless torn, flashing, deadly Law fragments!

The magnificent palaces that had long since turned into broken walls completely turned into powder at this moment!

Everything converged into an unprecedented destruction storm capable of strangling any Soul Transformation existence, sweeping wildly in all directions!

The seven world-destroying attacks were actually forcibly delayed by a thousandth of an instant in the face of this doomsday disaster caused by the collapse of the palace itself!

And Shen Yuanmo, at the moment the palace collapsed, his body flickered, and he had already used that terrifying inward suction to escape into the endless Chaos and darkness!

"Idiot! Do you think you can escape like this?!"

Ji Changkong let out a roar mixed with shock and anger.

His purple-gold handprint was the first to break through the obstruction of the storm, but where was Shen Yuanmo's shadow in front of him!

He was so angry that his three corpses jumped, and without thinking, the purple-gold divine light transformed by the Nine-Dragon Carriage protected his whole body, and he actually directly knocked open all the violent turbulence, chasing closely in the direction Shen Yuanmo disappeared!

"Little Beast! In heaven or on earth! This old man will smash your bones and scatter your ashes!"

Old Monster Cang Xuan was even more furious, his staff pointing out repeatedly. Every time it landed, a piece of chaotic space was forcibly smoothed out, opening up a smooth road for him to pursue!

"He wants to use the collapse of the palace to escape! Separate and chase! Don't let him run!"

Ancestor Xuan Ming let out a sharp hiss, turning into a demonic light, and rounded up from another direction!

Dragon Emperor Ao Guang, True Monarch Fu Hai, and Solitary City Ye also used their own Divine Abilities, turning into six streams of light of different colors, biting tightly behind Shen Yuanmo!

A shocking pursuit with a slim chance of survival unfolded fiercely within this Guixu Divine Palace that was heading towards total destruction!

Shen Yuanmo's figure traveled rapidly in the collapsing space.

His body twisted and turned between countless fatal spatial rifts, and every time he landed, he stepped precisely on the fleeting gate of life.

A pitch-black spatial rift like a snake's tongue silently swept across the position where he had just been, cutting a ten-thousand-ton giant rock in half, the cut as smooth as a mirror.

The Delusion-Breaking Dharma Eye allowed him to clearly perceive the trajectory of every spatial rift and avoid all fatal dangers.

But even so, the aftermath of the seven great experts' attacks still penetrated layers of broken space, shaking his blood and Qi.

Puff!

Shen Yuanmo only felt a sweetness in his throat.

A mouthful of Dao blood mixed with faint golden threads could no longer be suppressed, overflowing from the corner of his mouth.

He knew very well.

This was a true nine-death-and-one-life situation.

If he was caught up by any of these seven old monsters, he would be doomed!

Escape!

He must escape!

Shen Yuanmo's eyes were cold and calm, without the slightest panic.

His Divine Sense turned into an invisible giant net, locking tightly onto one of the seven auras behind him.

That aura was evil, gloomy, full of death and ominousness, and among the seven, the speed was relatively the slowest.

Master of the Evil Nether Hall!

A murderous intent that was cold to the extreme flashed in Shen Yuanmo's eyes.

Fleeing never meant only being passively beaten!

Surrounded by a pack of wolves, running blindly would only exhaust his physical strength faster and eventually lead to being eaten.

To survive, he had to first make this group of self-righteous hunters truly feel fear!

And fear often comes from death.

A crazy and clear thought took shape in his heart.

To break the siege, one must first create a gap.

To make the pack of wolves hesitate, one must first break the spine of one of them!

Then, kill one first!
