155: Chapter 155 Killing Mu Chen, Heavenly Punishment!

The cold voice of Zhou Yuxuan fell.

In an instant, his expression turned ferocious, and a tyrannical aura raged around him.

"Slash!!!"

Zhou Yuxuan raised the Supreme Human Emperor Sword and slashed down from high above.

"Th-this is a Cultivation Technique that transcends the Saint Rank?" In the distance, Gu Tianlong's eyes widened.

As one of the Gu Family's Top Ten Sequences, even with such a high status, he had only learned the first half of one Saint Rank Cultivation Technique from his Family.

Because of this, his combat power was peerless, and it could even be said that he rarely had any rivals of the same Rank within his Family.

However, their Family had only just emerged into the world, and they had already seen a descendant of a Family who had mastered an Imperial Rank Cultivation Technique. Since when had the foundations of external forces become so powerful?

Although their Gu Family also possessed many Imperial Rank Cultivation Techniques, one must know that even their Gu Family's Young Lord could not touch Cultivation Techniques of this level until reaching a certain Realm.

Yet, the Young Master of the Zhou Family before them had obtained one, and judging by his deep mastery of this Cultivation Technique, it was only due to current cultivation limitations that he had not unleashed its full power.

But even so, this strike was still powerful.

At this moment, Zhou Yuxuan channeled the Heaven-Opening Sword Canon, slashing with his sword toward the majestic figure manifested behind Mu Chen.

The majestic figure, which resembled Mu Chen, raised its eyes at this moment and looked at Zhou Yuxuan with a very human-like expression.

"A familiar aura. An anomaly. You must be killed!"

Without being controlled by Mu Chen, the mysterious figure calmly spoke in human language, then immediately raised its hand to meet this terrifying sword Move head-on.

"Boom!!!"

In an instant, as the two powerful attacks collided.

The Village of the Old, Weak, Sick, and Disabled beneath their feet, which could block the mist monsters, instantly turned into ruins.

The terrifying shockwave forced the strange mist that wanted to swallow this pure land back by hundreds of miles, and countless towering trees collapsed one after another.

In an instant, the surroundings were left barren and in complete disarray.

Meanwhile, Gu Tianlong, who had retreated further away, looked at the Move Zhou Yuxuan had slashed down with, his eyes filled with astonishment.

A flash of insight, like an electric current, flowed through his mind.

"What a miraculous sword Move. To think there is such a way to use it?" Gu Tianlong murmured.

At this moment, he felt the shackle hindering him from entering the God King Realm becoming thinner and thinner, as if it could be pierced with a gentle poke of his finger.

"I, am I about to have a Breakthrough?" Gu Tianlong was overjoyed, then quickly said to Gu Tianxin beside him.

"Little sister! Quick, protect me. This is an Opportunity. If I can comprehend the Profound Truth of this sword technique, perhaps I, too, can walk my own Dao just like the Young Lord."

Hearing her brother's serious tone, Gu Tianxin dared not delay. She repeatedly took out several powerful Magic Treasures, then cast several mysterious runes, setting up layers of powerful Formations around them before beginning to stand guard.

On the other side, Ancestor Zhou Wudi and the others had also retreated in time, avoiding being caught in the aftermath of the battle.

At this moment, their expressions were equally shocked.

"Good lad, you really have a hell of a lot of Opportunities, to even be able to obtain an Imperial Rank Cultivation Technique for the Sword Dao." Ancestor Zhou Wudi said with excited eyes.

His cultivation had already reached an extremely profound level, but he lacked some Opportunities. He was clearly only one step away, yet it felt as though he and the Emperor Realm were separated by ten thousand miles.

But now it was different; he had seen an Imperial Rank Cultivation Technique.

He knew what kind of existence a Cultivation Technique of this level was and what kind of Dao truths it contained.

Although he had already walked his own path of invincibility, as long as he fused the Dao truths contained within the Imperial Rank Cultivation Technique displayed by Zhou Yuxuan with his own Dao, it would still be his own Dao.

At this moment, Ancestor Zhou Wudi watched with great interest, as did the several Saints beside him. Even Donghuang Qing, who had activated the Donghuang Bloodline and received the Great Emperor's Legacy, was no exception.

"Anomaly, come again!"

At this moment, the towering figure manifested by Mu Chen attacked Zhou Yuxuan again. That fist, as large as a small planet, smashed toward Zhou Yuxuan without hesitation.

"Hmph!"

"Heaven-Opening Sword Canon! Second Move! Earth-Splitting!"

"Heaven-Opening Sword Canon! Third Move! Creation!"

...

Then, these two sword Moves were unleashed.

At this moment, the world suddenly turned dark, and the surroundings plunged into pitch-black darkness where one could not even see their own fingers.

Following that, before the eyes of the crowd, which were widened to the limit, a towering figure rose from the ground. He swung the long sword in his hand, slicing open this pitch-black space.

Countless rays of light shone in from the opened crack, allowing everyone to see the scene before them once again.

"You!!!"

The fist of that majestic figure stopped less than half a meter from Zhou Yuxuan's body.

The majestic figure's pair of human-like eyes gradually lost their luster. The originally solid body faded away faintly until it disappeared completely.

"Bang!!!"

At this moment, Mu Chen fell heavily to the ground. Everyone could easily see a ferocious sword scar on his chest that had almost cut him in half.

Countless white intestines spilled out from that sword scar.

"Pfft!" Large mouthfuls of blood spewed from Mu Chen's mouth.

"You, you! How is this possible? I am an Immortal Body! How could an Immortal Body be injured so easily!" Mu Chen looked at all of this in disbelief.

At this moment, he did not hesitate in the slightest. Relying on his remaining strength, he took out a Talisman and was about to crush it when Zhou Yuxuan noticed this movement.

"Heh! You want to leave?" This time, Zhou Yuxuan did not use any Move; he just gently swung his sword twice.

"Splat!!!" In the next second, before Mu Chen could use the Talisman, his hands were already severed.

"Ah!!!" Mu Chen screamed in pain, a look of despair already appearing in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Si Fei, who was hiding on the side, wanted to come out to plead for Mu Chen, but her hand was tightly held by Pei Nanya, preventing her from moving.

This left her only able to watch the miserable state of the child she had watched grow up from a young age.

Zhou Yuxuan looked at the incredibly wretched Mu Chen, his heart devoid of any fluctuation.

Because he knew that regardless of whether he had any connection with this Mu Chen, just based on his Villain Halo, the two of them were destined to have a battle.

And this battle meant either Mu Chen died, or he himself perished!

"Perish!" Zhou Yuxuan gently pointed a finger. A beam of light shot toward Mu Chen's head at lightning speed, obliterating his Divine Soul. In an instant, Mu Chen had no life left.

What surprised Zhou Yuxuan next was that the System did not sound with the rewards for hunting the protagonist. Instead, it emitted rapid alarm sounds!

[Alert! Alert! Alert!]

[Due to the Luck of the protagonist Mu Chen being higher than 10% when he was killed, Mu Chen's death has attracted the Heavenly Dao Divine Punishment. Host, please withstand the upcoming Heavenly Dao Divine Punishment! If the Host successfully survives, you may trigger the condition to receive double rewards!]
