181: Chapter 181 Those who obey prosper, those who defy perish!

The sigh was very soft.

It was so soft that it felt like just a breeze blowing by.

But it was also very heavy.

It was so heavy that it felt as if it could crush the eternal heavens!

The moment this sigh rang out—the entire Tianqu World seemed to fall into a standstill at this very instant!

Time. Space. Law. Life.

Everything, absolutely everything, solidified at this moment!

Even that giant palm, which had blotted out the sky, vanished in an instant—less than a hundred zhang away from Ye Tian!

It was not defeated.

Nor was it blocked.

Instead, it was as if it had never existed at all, wiped away directly by an invisible force!

Cleanly.

Leaving not a single trace.

"This... how is this possible?"

The Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief!

His attack!

The strongest strike he had exchanged his Origin and lifespan for!

Just like that, it was gone?

He hadn't even felt any fluctuation of power!

It was as if an invisible giant hand had gently wiped his attack away from the world!

This... what kind of technique is this?!

This had already exceeded his understanding!

And what terrified him even more was—he discovered that the Origin burning crazily inside his body had also been forcibly suppressed!

His invincible forbidden technique... had been forcibly terminated!

"Wha... what person is this?"

The Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty shouted in terror, but his voice was trembling uncontrollably at this moment!

Just then, in the Void Realm, a massive spatial rift suddenly tore open.

That rift was ten thousand zhang long and as wide as an abyss.

On the other side of the rift was endless darkness, and endless chaotic currents of the Void Realm.

But right within that darkness, a figure was walking toward them step by step.

His pace was unhurried.

Calm and composed.

It was as if nothing in these heavens and myriad worlds could block his path.

"Dom... Domain Realm!"

The Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty, the moment he saw that figure, felt his pupils constrict to the extreme!

Even his voice was trembling uncontrollably now!

Domain Realm!

This was a true Domain Realm!

And—not an ordinary Domain Realm!

That aura, that pressure, was far more powerful than any Domain Realm expert he had ever seen...

It was at least the Middle Stage of the Domain Realm!

Possibly even the Late Stage or Peak!

At this moment, the entire Tianqu World fell into a deathly silence.

Those seven Unity Realm experts of the Tianqu Dynasty were now wide-eyed and open-mouthed, but they dared not make a sound.

They had been scared witless.

That figure was too fast.

In the blink of an eye, he had crossed an endless distance.

By the time everyone reacted, that person had already appeared beside Ye Tian.

He just stood there quietly.

He did not emit any pressure.

But everyone dared not look directly at him.

It was as if taking one more look would be a profanity.

Daoist Master Cangxuan!

Guest Elder of the Divine Martial Guard!

A super expert of the Late Stage of the Domain Realm!

He looked at Ye Tian, who was covered in blood before him with blood-red eyes, and shook his head slightly.

Then, with a casual wave of his hand, an invisible force instantly enveloped Ye Tian.

Ye Tian's figure, which had been struggling crazily, was instantly frozen in place.

Unmoving.

Immediately after, the violent aura on Ye Tian's body began to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Those blood-red eyes also gradually regained their clarity.

But at this moment, Ye Tian was no longer his former self.

He had used the forbidden technique for too long.

He had burned too much of his Origin.

His originally jet-black, lustrous hair had now turned snow-white!

Although his face remained young, his eyes revealed an undisguisable weariness and vicissitude.

His aura had withered to the extreme!

It felt as if even a breeze could knock him over.

But Ye Tian could not care about such things.

The first moment he regained his senses, he immediately bowed respectfully to the figure before him.

"Greetings, Daoist Master Cangxuan!"

His voice was hoarse, carrying an undisguisable weakness.

"Many thanks to Daoist Master for saving my life!"

This expression of gratitude was from the bottom of his heart.

Because he knew that Daoist Master Cangxuan's casual wave just now was not simply about freezing him in place.

Within it, it contained the powerful life Origin of Daoist Master Cangxuan!

If it were not for the nourishment of this life Origin, how could he still be standing here unharmed?

Even if he had not perished on the spot, he would at the very least have lost all his cultivation and become a cripple!

This was only because Daoist Master Cangxuan was a super expert of the Late Stage of the Domain Realm.

If it had been someone from the Unity Realm, it would have been absolutely impossible to have such an ability!

Daoist Master Cangxuan looked at the young man before him, who was white-haired but still standing straight, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

"You did well this time."

His voice was calm but carried a sense of approval.

"You did not lose face for our Imperial Dynasty."

A short sentence, yet it instantly made Ye Tian's eyes redden.

In this battle, he had given his all.

He had burned his blood essence.

He had almost become a madman.

He had paid a heavy price.

But at this moment, he felt—it was worth it!

The fact that Daoist Master Cangxuan could come meant that the Imperial Dynasty acknowledged him, and that high and mighty Your Majesty also acknowledged him!

And just at this time, Li Youming and Master Tianjizi in the distance finally reacted.

Their figures flashed, and they instantly rushed to Ye Tian's side!

"My Lord!"

"Vice Commander!"

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, supported the swaying Ye Tian, their faces full of concern.

"My Lord, are you alright?"

"My Lord, you scared us to death!"

"Look at your hair, it's all white! What are we going to do!"

As Li Youming spoke, tears were almost falling.

He looked even sadder than if his own father had died.

Master Tianjizi was not to be outdone, sobbing with snot and tears.

"My Lord! How could you risk your life like this?"

"If something were to happen to you, how would us two old fellows live on!"

"You are the pillar of our Divine Martial Guard! If you fall, what are we supposed to do!"

The two's exaggerated expressions and their wailing, heaven-shaking posture were simply too much to look at...

Ye Tian felt a headache from the two of them and waved his hand weakly.

"Alright, alright... I'm not dead yet..."

"Pah, pah, pah! My Lord, what are you saying? You will definitely live a long life!"

"Exactly, exactly! My Lord, you are blessed by heaven, you will definitely be fine!"

The two continued to chatter endlessly.

Daoist Master Cangxuan, however, paid no attention to these two clowns.

He turned around and looked at the Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty.

His gaze was as calm as water.

Yet, it made that Half-Step Domain Realm Old Ancestor feel chilled to the bone.

"You..."

The Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but discovered that he could not make any sound at all.

An invisible pressure had already enveloped him.

It made him unable to move.

It made him unable to speak.

Daoist Master Cangxuan did not speak.

He simply reached out his hand.

Gently.

Toward that direction.

He clenched his fist.

"Pfft—"

With a soft sound, the Old Ancestor of the Tianqu Dynasty, a dignified Half-Step Domain Realm expert, an old monster who had lived for countless millennia—just like that... exploded!

He turned into a cloud of blood mist and drifted away with the wind!

Cleanly!

Not leaving a single trace behind!

From start to finish, the opponent didn't even have time to let out a scream.

He was just casually crushed by Daoist Master Cangxuan's casual clench...

The seven Unity Realm experts of the Tianqu Dynasty, seeing this scene, all collapsed to the ground.

Old Ancestor... their invincible Old Ancestor... just died like this?

Just crushed to death by someone like an ant?

This... how is this possible?

And the Imperial Dynasty's million-strong army was now boiling with excitement!

"Daoist Master is mighty!"

"Daoist Master is invincible!"

The heaven-shaking shouts resounded through the clouds!

Daoist Master Cangxuan withdrew his hand, swept his gaze over the seven Tianqu Dynasty experts collapsed on the ground, and said indifferently,

"Imperial Dynasty conquest: Those who submit shall prosper, those who resist shall perish."
