455: The ancestor of the ape dies!

"Human Race brat!!!"

Ape Ancestor, who had achieved the Half-Ancestor realm, roared towards the sky, his voice shattering billions of miles of clouds.

His blood-red fur danced wildly, and a surging sea of blood churned behind him. Each step he took caused the Void Realm to collapse, and the entire Burial Ape Ridge groaned under his immense pressure.

"The grudge of the severed Dao, today I shall have your blood for blood!"

Ape Ancestor's three demonic eyes simultaneously erupted with fierce light, and his right fist, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, slammed out.

Wherever the fist passed, space shattered layer by layer like Like glass, and even the hidden River of Time was forcibly cut off. The Myriad Daos of heaven and earth wailed and retreated.

As a former Dao Ancestor, although he was only a Half-Ancestor, this punch had touched the "Dao Ancestor" Domain!

This scene reminded Xu Qing of a movie he had seen in his previous life, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Xu Qing slowly raised his right palm.

"Suppress!"

With a soft utterance of a single word, heaven and earth changed dramatically!

His palm extended infinitely in the Void Realm, its lines transforming into mountains and rivers, his skin showing the trajectories of stars, and the edges of his palm flowing with Chaos Qi of terrifying power.

The entire firmament dimmed at this moment, as if the myriad worlds were condensed within this single palm. Ape Ancestor's world-destroying punch was completely neutralized as if a clay ox had entered the sea!

"Impossible!"

Ape Ancestor's three demonic eyes constricted violently. He continuously pounded his Physical Body, and then the sea of blood behind him shrank, causing his Physical Body to rapidly expand.

“Clang!!!”

As the sky-covering giant palm pressed down, Ape Ancestor used both hands like celestial pillars to support it.

“Boom!!!”

The sky-covering giant palm continued to press down, and the sea of blood behind Ape Ancestor began to shatter. Then, his heaven-supporting Yao Race Physical Body was forcibly pushed back.

"Boom!!!"

Finally, Ape Ancestor was slapped into the ground, and the entire Burial Ape Ridge sank ten thousand feet with a roar!

Centered on the point of impact, the shockwave flattened an area of billions of miles. Magma erupted like fountains into the sky, and countless cracks reaching deep into the earth's core radiated outwards.

“Roar!!!”

After the smoke and dust dispersed, only a bottomless palm-print abyss was visible on the earth.

From the bottom of the abyss came Ape Ancestor's hysterical roar: "This Ancestor refuses to accept! Human Race little..."

Xu Qing stood with his hands behind his back in the clouds, and said indifferently: "I don't need you to accept. This palm sends you on your way."

The moment Xu Qing raised his palm, the entire heaven and earth suddenly darkened.

Thousands of annihilation runes appeared in his palm, each rune swallowing light like a black hole, distorting space and time.

These runes intertwined and flowed, finally condensing into a sky-obscuring Chaos palm print, slowly pressing down towards Ape Ancestor.

Before the palm print even arrived, the terrifying pressure had already caused the space of Burial Ape Ridge to begin collapsing. The Void Realm shattered into pieces like a mirror, and the magma, before it could even erupt, was extinguished. The remaining Peaks of Burial Ape Ridge silently turned into dust.

Ape Ancestor looked up at this palm print, and finally, fear appeared in his three demonic eyes.

"This Ancestor has schemed for countless years... how can I perish like this!!"

Ape Ancestor roared hysterically, his dark golden fur bristling. A blood-colored ocean surged wildly from his Physical Body, erupting with dazzling blood light, and his three demonic eyes simultaneously unleashed beams of destruction.

He slammed both fists, imbued with the full power of a Half-Ancestor, towards the firmament.

"Boom!!!"

The terrifying attack, powerful enough to destroy several Dao Domains, struck the palm print, yet it was like a clay ox entering the sea, failing to even stir a ripple.

"No... this is impossible..." Ape Ancestor's voice began to tremble.

The Chaos palm print finally descended.

The moment of contact, Ape Ancestor's heaven-supporting Yao Race Physical Body disintegrated like a sand sculpture, his blood-colored fur turned into specks of starlight and dissipated, and his three demonic eyes successively burst.

"This Ancestor is unwilling... This Ancestor..."

His final roar abruptly ceased.

Ape Ancestor's scattered essence blood transformed into a blood-colored long river; his Half-Dominator-level berserk Dao condensed into brilliant black Xia; and the foundation accumulated over countless years became a surging torrent.

Xu Qing stood with his hands behind his back, opened his mouth, and inhaled.

"Whoosh—"

Like a giant whale drawing water, all the torrents of power flowed into Xu Qing's Physical Body.

His aura didn't strengthen much, but his robes moved without wind, and his Physical Body showed even deeper annihilation runes than before.

After the last trace of energy was completely devoured, Xu Qing slowly opened his eyes, as if myriad worlds were being born and destroyed within them.

"It's still not enough!"

He glanced at the now desolate Burial Ape Ridge, and his figure transformed into a phantom, disappearing from its original spot.

When the mist shrouding Burial Ape Ridge completely dispersed, what appeared before the world was a completely dead and barren wasteland.

Who could have imagined that a forbidden zone, once notorious for its fierce power, would be reduced to this state.

The towering mountain Peaks had all collapsed, leaving only ruins and broken walls. The surface of the mountains was covered with crisscrossing giant cracks, as if torn apart by some supreme power.

The creatures that lived there had completely vanished, leaving only bottomless abysses, filled with countless decayed corpses, emitting a nauseating stench.

The entire forbidden zone had no trace of life left; even the Chaos Origin Qi had been drained, turning it into a truly dead land.

Powerful Dao thoughts swept in from all directions. Upon seeing the tragic state of Burial Ape Ridge, those ancient existences hidden in the shadows all showed expressions of shock.

"Burial Ape Ridge... was actually razed to the ground?"

An old Yao Race member, who had been awakened from seclusion, showed a rare look of solemnity on his withered face.

"This was that old fellow's planned location, how could it..."

"Who... possesses such means?"

A Sovereign stared intently in the direction of Burial Ape Ridge, muttering.

These powerful individuals, who usually stood high above, looking down upon all beings, now felt a storm raging in their hearts.

They knew better than anyone Ape Ancestor's foundation. Although he was only a remnant thought, he was, after all, a true Dao Ancestor-level existence. Even if he wasn't at his Peak, he was by no means someone an ordinary Immortal Monarch could contend with.

But now, the entire Burial Ape Ridge had been erased, and Ape Ancestor's aura had completely disappeared... Clearly, the one who acted must be an existence above an Immortal Monarch.

"Hmph! This Venerable wants to see who has such great ability!"

An ancient existence, who had a long-standing connection with Ape Ancestor, snorted coldly and directly used a divination technique, intending to trace the truth of this battle.

However—

"Pfft!"

As soon as he tried to divine, he was struck as if by lightning, and violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"What?!"

He had only seen a blurry figure in the heavenly secrets, but a single glance from the other party caused him to suffer a backlash.

At this moment, cracks appeared in the Dao within his Physical Body, and his cultivation was subtly unstable.

Moreover, in just a mere instant, his Lifespan was stripped away by a hundred thousand years!

"This... how is this possible?!"

He staggered backward, his face as pale as paper, his eyes filled with disbelief.

However, this ancient existence was no ordinary person. He forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, withdrew his Dao thought, and retreated into the depths of the forbidden zone.

He knew very well that the person had only given him a minor punishment. If he continued to divine, then what followed would be the threat of death.

Although he had an old connection with Ape Ancestor, it was better for a Fellow Daoist to die than for him to die, especially since the other party was already dead.

Seeing this, the other powerful individuals changed their expressions. That ancient existence had reached the end of immortality, and even he had retreated. No one dared to easily attempt divination again.

At this moment, all the powerful individuals realized that an unimaginable existence had acted to erase Burial Ape Ridge, and even annihilated Ape Ancestor's remnant thought!

"This matter... ends here!"

"Issue an order, do not act rashly in the near future!"

"Could it be... that Human Race Dao Ancestor from back then?"

All sorts of speculations circulated in the shadows, and the Demon Clan Territory was surging with undercurrents due to the destruction of Burial Ape Ridge...
