160: The combined power can destroy a supreme being with a flick of the finger.

Time and space fell into absolute stillness in the skies above the Northern Ice Field.

Devil Venerable Chong Lou maintained the posture of stepping one foot into a spatial rift, the terror and panic on his face perfectly frozen. He could think and perceive, but he could not control his body in the slightest.

He could only watch helplessly as that figure in green robes approached him step by step, as if taking a stroll.

Every step felt like it was treading on his heart, making the Divine Soul of this Integration Realm Devil Venerable tremble frantically with extreme fear.

"You... who exactly are you?!"

Chong Lou roared frantically in his heart, but he could not even release a Divine Thought.

He could not understand.

Both were at the Integration Realm, so why was the gap so vast?

Freezing him with a single word—what kind of Divine Ability was this? What Law was this? Why had he never heard of it?

Even those Devil Kings at the Integration Realm Perfection under the Devil Emperor's command could never do this so effortlessly!

This native was definitely not a newly promoted one! He must be playing the pig to eat the tiger! He was hiding his true strength!

Endless regret and fear completely consumed Chong Lou's heart.

He finally understood that he had been wrong from the very beginning, terribly wrong.

He should not have come to this world.

Chu He walked to the front of the flagship, stopped, and looked up at the Devil Venerable frozen in mid-air. His gaze was as indifferent as if he were looking at a stone by the roadside.

"Decent nourishment."

He commented softly.

To him now, the greatest value of this Integration Realm Devil Venerable was to be refined by the fortune furnace after death and become resources for the Family's growth.

Then, Chu He's gaze bypassed Chong Lou and looked at the hundreds of Demon Ships behind the fleet that were also frozen.

He slowly raised his right hand, pressed his index and middle fingers together, and made a light stroke toward the Void Realm.

"Shatter."

Another single word.

A word spoken effortlessly, without a hint of earthly presence.

However, as the sound of that word fell, a scene appeared that all onlookers would never forget for the rest of their lives.

The hundreds of hideous and massive Demon Race warships, starting from the first one, seemed to be gently brushed by an invisible giant hand.

"Crack..."

With a soft sound, a tiny crack appeared on the hull without any warning.

Then came the second, the third, the countless... Cracks spread like a spiderweb, covering the entire warship within a single breath.

Then, with a soft "thud," like glass shattering.

The entire thousand-zhang Demon Ship, along with all the Demon Race on board, silently turned into countless golden specks of light, slowly dissipating in the air like dandelions scattered by the wind.

Then the second, the third, the fourth... "Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

The dense sounds of shattering were like a symphony of death.

One by one, the terrifying warships that were like creations of gods and demons in the eyes of the Xuanhuang Realm Cultivators turned into a brilliant rain of light, elegantly and cruelly.

This scene was breathtakingly beautiful and breathtakingly terrifying.

The children of the Chu Family looked at their father's back as he commanded with the authority of a deity, their eyes filled with fervent admiration.

This was their father!

In the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms, the one and only, the strongest father!

As for the Soul Transformation Ancestors in the distance, many had already collapsed to the ground because their minds were overwhelmed and their Dao Hearts were unstable, unconsciously murmuring, "God... this is a True God descending to the world..."

On the flagship, Devil Venerable Chong Lou saw everything clearly.

He watched helplessly as the fleet he took pride in disintegrated like a sandcastle under the other's finger.

His pride, his dignity, and his ambition were crushed to pieces at this moment.

He finally understood that he had provoked something that was not a native of some lower world at all.

But a Primordial Deity wearing human skin, walking among the heavens, who had lived for unknown eons!

After the last Demon Ship had also turned into specks of light and dissipated, Chu He's gaze fell back onto Chong Lou.

"It's your turn."

He said indifferently.

As his voice fell, the power that imprisoned heaven and earth finally dissipated from Chong Lou.

*Thud!*

The moment he regained his freedom, Chong Lou could no longer maintain the dignity of an Integration Realm Devil Venerable. His legs gave way, and he knelt directly from mid-air, kowtowing frantically to Chu He.

"My Lord! Senior! Spare me! Spare my life!"

His voice was full of extreme fear and flattery, without a trace of his previous arrogance.

"This Junior failed to recognize your greatness and offended you! I am willing to surrender! I am willing to serve you like an ox or a horse, just please spare my life!"

"I... I know many secrets of the Star-Devouring Demon Clan! I know the location of the main army! I know the Devil Emperor's weaknesses! I... I can tell you everything!"

To save his life, he did not hesitate to betray everything he had.

However, Chu He just looked at him quietly, his eyes as calm as still water.

"Secrets? I don't need them." Chu He shook his head. "After killing you, I can just search your soul."

"As for your life..."

A curve finally appeared at the corner of Chu He's mouth, but that smile was more terrifying than the most vicious curse in Chong Lou's eyes.

"It's too filthy, I don't want it."

As his voice fell, Chu He casually flicked his finger at Chong Lou.

*Whoosh!*

An imperceptible wisp of golden light shot from his fingertip, ignoring the distance of space, and arrived in front of Chong Lou in an instant.

Chong Lou's pupils constricted. He wanted to dodge, to resist; he frantically channeled all the Demon Yuan in his body, trying to prop up a shield.

But it was useless.

Under the lock of Chu He's Law, all his struggles appeared pale and powerless.

That wisp of golden light easily pierced through all his defenses and passed through the center of his forehead.

"Uh..."

All of Chong Lou's movements froze.

Endless fear and unwillingness remained in his eyes.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word.

Golden cracks rapidly spread across his entire body, centered on the small hole in his forehead.

In the next moment.

*Bang.*

Devil Venerable Chong Lou, this genuine Integration Stage Devil Venerable and supreme commander of the Star-Devouring Demon Clan's expeditionary force, turned into flying ash in front of everyone.

Both his body and soul were annihilated.
