Chapter 192 The Arrival of the Holy Knights, This Slap is Called "Silence"
Outside the Northern Border's Third Fortress, space suddenly tore open like a charred scroll, revealing a massive void.
"Boom—!"
Golden Holy Light poured down like a waterfall. Twelve Sanctuary Knights, clad in heavy dragon-patterned gold armor and riding six-winged pegasi, descended from the heavens with the arrogance of those judging all living beings.
Sanctuary Judgment Hall—First Tier.
Every member was a genuine first-rank War God Realm! Their leader, "Radiant Knight" Galahad, had even reached the terrifying level of third-rank War God Realm!
"Is this the ruin where the heretic resides?"
Galahad pulled the reins tight, looking down at the massive basin crater with disgust.
In his eyes, staying even a second longer in this secular world with thin Spiritual Qi was a desecration of the Holy Light.
"That man named Jiang Chen actually dared to absorb Emperor Essence while sleeping, causing the Northern Border's Spiritual Veins to dry up. By the Pope's order, his Divine Soul shall be extracted and suppressed in the Holy Lake's Sin Washing Pool for three thousand years."
"But... my Lord," one knight hesitated, "that vibration just now didn't seem as simple as breaking through a realm. That aura reminded me of..."
"Shut up! That was just the heretic's illusion!"
Galahad snorted coldly, pointing his golden spear at the center of the deep basin. "All units, activate the 'Great Purification Array'! I want every inch of this hundred-mile radius cleared of the filth of sleep!"
"Ha!"
Twelve War God Realm experts struck simultaneously. Golden runes converged in the sky to form a massive cross, slamming down toward the purplish-black ball of fox tails with destructive Holy Light.
This strike was enough to wipe a medium-sized city off the map.
However.
Just as the Holy Light was about to touch the fox tail fur.
The nine tails, which had been as quiet as a cocoon, suddenly bloomed outward like a massive man-eating flower without warning!
"Buzz—"
A wave of dark purple Mental Energy swept across the entire sky instantly, moving at a speed that completely ignored the Laws of physics.
"What?!"
Before Galahad could react, he found that his painstakingly maintained Great Purification Array had strangely... "gone soft" the moment it touched the purple light.
Yes, the originally sharp golden runes now became like limp noodles, falling limply from the sky.

"Hey, you..."
In the center of the deep basin, Jiang Chen closed his eyes and slowly rose into the air, supported by Iliya.
He was still wearing those spongebob pajamas and a pair of oversized flip-flops. He looked like a salted fish who had just gone downstairs to buy cigarettes but accidentally wandered onto the wrong movie set.
But in the eyes of Galahad and the other War God Realm knights, in the Void Realm behind this salted fish youth, the phantom of a massive Devil God wearing an Imperial Crown was slowly opening its eyes, its face impossible to see clearly.
"You guys..." Jiang Chen lowered his head. His voice, amplified by the Law of Amplification, shook the pegasi in the sky until they all lost control of their bladders. "It's early morning, and you're out here 'hei-ha hei-ha-ing'. Practicing radio calisthenics?"
"Jiang Chen! You damned heretic! Hurry up and..."
Galahad hadn't even finished his sentence.
Jiang Chen raised his right hand.
He didn't clench a fist or slap; he simply curled his middle finger and flicked the air casually.
"Ping."
"Slap!!!"
A crisp, pleasant, and extremely loud sound of a slap exploded ten thousand meters in the air.
Everyone only saw a flash of purple light. Immediately after, Galahad, who had just been exuding invincible Divine Might on his six-winged pegasus, was like a shuttlecock accurately hit by a racket.
His golden armor shattered instantly. He spun in the air for countless rotations, leaving a trail of golden blood like a meteorite as he slammed violently into the snow-capped mountain behind the fortress.
"Boom—!"
The snow mountain collapsed. Galahad was slapped directly into the core of the mountain, so deep he couldn't be pried out.
The remaining eleven War God Realm knights all froze in mid-air.
They looked at the hundred-meter-wide purple Mental Energy slipper floating above Jiang Chen's head, still vibrating slightly, and felt the greatest fear of their lives.
"Is... is this a power a War God Realm can possess?"
"He hasn't even opened his eyes!"
Jiang Chen seemed to find it a bit noisy. He frowned and waved his right hand again.
"Everyone... silenced."
Boom!
An invisible force descended. All the War God Realm knights discovered to their horror that they could not only make no sound, but even the power of the Laws within their bodies had been forcibly "hypnotized."
Those once-arrogant War God Realm experts now lined up, swaying in the air, and then fell like dumplings, splashing into the muddy pits below.
"Good... finally quiet."
Jiang Chen rubbed the corners of his eyes and leaned back.
Iliya moved her delicate body with perfect understanding, catching him with her back, which was full of imperial majesty yet extremely soft.
Nine tails, like woven silk, wrapped around him tightly.
"Master, how should we deal with this trash?" Iliya opened her red lips slightly, a flash of killing intent passing through her eyes.
"Keep them for now... tomorrow have them... mine for me, or move that new bed frame..."
Jiang Chen's voice grew smaller and smaller, finally turning into steady snoring.
Su Qingyue and Mu Qingxue looked at each other, then at the War God Realm knights sprawled in the mud, snoring (affected by Jiang Chen's Sleep Domain), and fell into a long silence.
"Qingyue..." Mu Qingxue spoke softly, "I feel like Great Xia's textbooks need to be rewritten."
"Rewrite what?"
"War God Realm experts... in front of a sleeping person, really aren't any different from flies."
Amidst the wind and snow, Jiang Chen held his Fox Ancestor Empress. Under the gaze of countless Great Xia experts, he completed his ultimate transformation from a "peerless Prodigy" to a "Planar Great Devil King."
And the Sanctuary's kill order became the world's biggest joke that night.
