233: Divine punishment is coming

The heavens and earth changed color, and Qi surged, as the entire world fell into a bizarre atmosphere.

Xuanyuan Sect had not yet sensed any power, but looking at the great sword in the sky, he was already filled with unease.

His Spiritual Qi had been completely suppressed, making him like a cripple, trapped within this patch of heaven and earth, utterly unable to break free!

In contrast, Lu Ze stood calmly beside him, his power continuously gathering, even erupting with a strength Xuanyuan Sect had never witnessed!

"You... you didn't resist before, were you waiting for this moment to arrive?!"

Xuanyuan Sect's mind quickly caught on. Just now, Lu Ze had only been defending, showing no intention of attacking. He had initially thought Lu Ze was suppressed by him, but now it seemed that was not the case at all!

"Only just thought of it? It's too late."

Lu Ze raised a smile, a smile that, to Xuanyuan Sect's eyes, was like the mocking grin of a killer before he brought down his blade!

"Xuanyuan Sect, didn't you really want my life? Why don't you try today to see if you can make my destiny fall upon you."

Lu Ze pointed at the great sword that was already descending in layers from the sky, "Do you see it? That is my destiny!"

Xuanyuan Sect was terrified. He seemed to have understood what Lu Ze was going to do. He immediately scrambled up, using all his strength to rush to the barrier, desperately hitting and crashing against it, but it was all in vain. Not to mention he no longer had any cultivation, even if he did, how could he escape the range locked by this heavenly punishment?

Lu Ze ignored Xuanyuan Sect's struggles, only looking up at the sky. He secretly mobilized Gong Yuheng's power, accumulating it in the shadows.

This heavenly punishment descending was no joke. Fortunately, he still held the power of an Evil-Exterminating Experts in his hand. Although the duration was short, it was enough!

At this moment!

Outside the arena!

The Demon Subduing Division personnel had already followed Cheng Ran's orders, evacuating the crowd, and ordinary citizens were also evacuated to safe areas.

Meng Yanxing and others had also arrived outside the arena.

"Cheng Ran, what's going on?! Why such a sudden anomaly? Could it be that an Evil-Exterminating Experts or a Supreme has appeared?!"

Besides the appearance of an Evil-Exterminating Experts or a Supreme, Meng Yanxing couldn't imagine what else could cause such a massive anomaly!

"No."

Cheng Ran shook her head, "If it were just the appearance of a powerful being, how could there be such destructive power? This great sword slowly pressing down, I'm afraid neither you nor I could resist it. It's already too late to dispatch personnel from headquarters to deal with it!"

Meng Yanxing frowned, "I've already instructed my subordinates, and powerful formations have been activated. They should be able to protect most people. But what, what exactly caused this?"

Cheng Ran let out a long breath, looked at Meng Yanxing, and said, "Deputy Director Meng, there are only Lu Ze and Xuanyuan Sect inside. Who else could have caused it?"

Meng Yanxing's eyes narrowed instantly, "You mean? Then should we forcefully intervene and kill..."

A sarcastic smile appeared on Cheng Ran's face, "Kill him? If we kill him, he will completely break free from humanity and return to being a demon! He still retains human thoughts. If he can summon such a powerful weapon today, if he becomes a demon, destroying the Human Base would merely be a thought away for him!"

"Let's wait. Once today's matter is resolved, we will report to headquarters and prepare to hunt down this dangerous individual."

Meng Yanxing also nodded in agreement, "It's just a pity. Headquarters has waited so long, and he's just a discarded piece. If only he could be used to overthrow the entire Guan Jiang Department!"

"The Guan Jiang Department can still be overthrown."

Cheng Ran seemed to have thought of something, her eyes unfocused. After a long while, she spoke again, "If Qin Yuze's only child were captured and publicly executed, I believe many people from the Guan Jiang Department would come to rescue him. If the execution site were outside the Human Base, even if it's a trap, many would still come."

"It's just a pity. If only Lu Ze were an ordinary person, I believe he could truly help us humans eliminate demons. But he is Qin Yuze's son, and he has a body modified by demons. Forget it, a demonic seed, if killed, then killed."

Hearing this, Meng Yanxing couldn't help but glance at Cheng Ran, sighing inwardly at her ruthlessness.

Although he had only spent a short time with Lu Ze, he had never thought of a method to forcibly capture and execute Lu Ze to lure the Guan Jiang Department members into a trap. This Cheng Ran, though not old, had a vicious mind.

It was no wonder. Cheng Ran was originally specifically arranged by headquarters to choose Lu Ze as a Disciple, with the goal of limiting Lu Ze to a certain extent!

And it was also for this day's existence!

Meng Yanxing also followed Cheng Ran's gaze towards the arena. Countless formations opened around the two, enveloping them!

Above the sky, the clouds rolled together like an inverted bucket, layer upon layer. The strong winds violently swirled, tearing apart the surrounding buildings!

In the center of the inverted bucket, a reddish-gold great sword slowly pressed down, seemingly intent on crushing this entire world!

Inside the arena!

Lu Ze, holding the struggling Xuanyuan Sect who couldn't break free, also looked up at the sky, "Look, Xuanyuan Sect, the destiny you wanted has arrived. Let's see if you can bear this destiny!"

As his voice fell, he suddenly moved, his entire body's Spiritual Qi sending him into mid-air, directly facing the great sword that was about to fall!

"Lu Ze!"

Above the great sword, amidst the nine heavens, a chanting sound, like a divine oracle, slowly rose, spreading throughout the entire world!

"You borrowed a divine object, and have not returned it to this day. Now the time has come, and divine punishment descends. This sword is granted to you!"

The moment the chanting voice ceased, the great sword plunged down with a roar!

"Boom boom boom!!!"

The surrounding space could not withstand such a powerful descent, and it began to shatter inch by inch!

Spiritual Qi could not fill these constantly appearing spatial cracks in time. The space quickly collapsed, and countless black holes appeared near the great sword, falling with it!

From a distance, half of the sky had already shattered, like the end of the world!

Even Cheng Ran and Meng Yanxing couldn't help but swallow. For a moment, their hearts wavered. Was this really caused by Lu Ze?

If so, was there really a need to capture him?

If this power was truly summoned by Lu Ze, then it could certainly be summoned a second time. How could they, who were not even comparable to Evil-Exterminating Expertss, imprison someone who could summon such an anomaly of heaven and earth?!

While the two were pondering, Lu Ze moved!

"Grant me a sword?! Alright, I'll grant you a person!"

Lu Ze weighed Xuanyuan Sect in his hand.

"Good brother, you go first and test how strong this thing really is!"

Xuanyuan Sect was already trembling with fear, his eyes vacant, his face ashen, constantly muttering, "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

Lu Ze ignored what the man said and directly exerted force, throwing Xuanyuan Sect towards the sky!

"Ah ah ah ah!!"

A terrifying scream echoed through the heavens!

It was horrifying to hear, and terrifying to see.

"Whoosh!"

After a small sound of Qi extinguishing, Xuanyuan Sect completely vanished under the sword light of the great sword, leaving no bones behind.
