Huangfu Zhenyang was dead!

Qin Xuantian had actually dared to make a move; right in front of Doomsday Bell Divine Ruin of the Gods, he had ruthlessly crushed Huangfu Zhenyang to death!

Such audacity! Utterly brazen! Completely reckless! Unbelievable! How could such an unrestrained person exist?!

"It's over, all over!" Yun Lingsu's face turned ashen as she looked at the bright silver orb, her voice trembling as she said, "Zhong Shenxi will definitely be enraged! A powerful being like him, in his fury, is likely to destroy this entire valley! Not one of us will survive!"

"Qin Xuantian! You're seeking your own death, why drag us into this! Dammit! Dammit!"

"Your esteemed Excellency, Doomsday of the Gods, we harbor absolutely no disrespect towards you! We beg for your forgiveness, we beg for your mercy!"

"I have elders above and children below to care for! Please, just kill this detestable Qin Xuantian! I beg you!"

The kneeling Martial Artists also pleaded desperately, terrified that Zhong Shenxi would truly redirect his wrath onto them.

The red sun above remained dazzling, but its light now seethed with murderous intent!

The temperature in the void continued to rise. The earth cracked open, and the trees in the distance, once lush and verdant, now withered; some even began to burn!

The mortal realm seemed to have transformed into a molten hell!

"Qin Xuantian! You are the most audacious person I have ever seen!" Zhong Shenxi's voice boomed from on high, while the red sun continued its descent, the heat intensifying. "Do you have any idea what you have just done?"

BANG!

Qin Heng crushed the bright silver orb with one hand, sneering, "Of course, I know. I simply crushed an ant. What's the big deal?"

"He's courting death! Qin Xuantian is truly courting death!" Yun Lingsu shook her head in panic, turning to Shang Ying and Li Jiao beside her. "Zhong Shenxi is already in a towering rage, and yet Qin Xuantian continues to provoke him!"

"Perhaps... perhaps Qin Heng really does have the strength to overcome Zhong Shenxi," Shang Ying managed a faint smile. "Maybe we don't need to despair just yet."

"That's right, that's right! Qin Heng might really possess such strength," Li Jiao nodded. "After all, didn't the Earth Ranking issued by the Tianshi Sect suggest that Qin Heng is suspected to be an heir of the ancient Mid-Heaven Purple Star Palace? Maybe he truly possesses some Secret Technique!"

"Impossible," Yun Lingsu shook her head, her expression filled with utter terror. She said in a grave voice, "He is not the legitimate heir of a major sect. Even if he chanced upon an ancient inheritance, it would surely be incomplete. He cannot possibly compare to top-tier sects like the Sun Temple, which possess the accumulated experience of countless sages!"

Could it be? Could it be that Qin Heng is doomed to die today? Shang Ying and Li Jiao were both overcome with despair, their voices tinged with sobs as they looked toward Qin Heng on the lecture platform.

"He brought this upon himself," Yun Lingsu snorted coldly. "Repeatedly provoking Doomsday of the Gods—his death-seeking behavior is simply unparalleled! If he doesn't die, it's an affront to heavenly principles!"

"Qin Xuantian! Such tremendous audacity!" Zhong Shenxi, within the red sun, finally could no longer restrain himself and roared, "Today, I shall let you witness the true might of an Innate Grandmaster!"

BOOM!

The red sun in the sky suddenly exploded. Boundless divine brilliance blazed to its utmost, scattering billions of red lights across the heavens as a vague human silhouette flew out from within.

Then, with a sudden transformation, it instantly became a Three-legged Golden Crow over a hundred meters tall! It soared into the sky, an incredibly intense heat ravaging the void, as if a true primordial Divine Beast had descended.

"This is the Golden Crow's Divine Method, a Divine Skill from the *Sun God Divine Chapter*!" Zhong Shenxi, transformed into the Golden Crow, spread his wings. They blotted out the sky as an endless brilliance swept forth, instantly incinerating four to five hundred Martial Artists who were closer to him!

"Qin Xuantian, I once used this technique to incinerate a Jiao dragon. You should feel honored to die by it today. Perish! Turn to ash beneath the radiance of my Golden Crow!"

Amidst the roars, Zhong Shenxi's incredibly formidable presence spread, filling the entire valley. Countless creatures trembled, overcome with fear, all staring at the sky in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock.

Golden rays, like massive torrents, unfurled across the sky, in the blink of an eye enveloping everything within a ten-kilometer radius!

Extreme heat! Flames! Destruction! All manner of energies coalesced within this golden light, threatening to sweep everything away!

It was as if the end of the world had descended, as though the twilight of the gods had arrived!

An unspeakably terrifying and dreadful might materialized above the head of every living being in the valley.

THUMP! THUMP!

One by one, people fell to their knees, kowtowing towards the sky, worshipping Zhong Shenxi as if he were a true god, pleading for mercy.

"Please spare my life! Your Excellency, Doomsday of the Gods, spare me!"

"Noble Great Grandmaster, spare our lives, please, spare us!"

Zhong Shenxi ignored their pleas. Having transformed into the Golden Crow, his entire being was now a mass of energy, radiating endless golden light that blazed in the sky. His attention was focused solely on Qin Heng.

"Qin Xuantian, come meet your death!"

Yet, Qin Heng remained unperturbed, his expression unchanged. He raised his palm, as flawless as jade, and made a gentle grasping motion towards the sky, sneering, "Such insignificant tricks, yet you dare to act so arrogantly. A true frog at the bottom of a well! It's utterly hilarious! HAHAHA!"

As he raised his palm, an enormous hand, like a mountain range, appeared in the sky above. It covered an area of four to five kilometers as Heavenly Essence surged wildly, converging towards the palm and solidifying it into reality!

It was as if an ancient celestial sovereign had reached down from the ninth heaven, intending to suppress all worldly evils with immeasurable might!

In just an instant, the once terrifying Golden Crow was completely enveloped by this giant hand. Though the Golden Crow that Zhong Shenxi had become radiated boundless divine splendor, beneath this colossal hand, it seemed as minuscule as a chick!

Zhong Shenxi also sensed the giant hand forming above. Looking up, his expression changed drastically to one of horror. His Golden Crow form trembled as he stammered, "You... you... you?!"

In that moment, this powerhouse known as Doomsday of the Gods, was so shocked he was rendered speechless!

On the ground, the Martial Artists who had been begging Zhong Shenxi for their lives were also stunned. They stared incredulously at the giant palm in the sky, then at Qin Heng who had raised his hand, their eyes wide with astonishment.

Qin Xuantian is actually this strong? It seems he might even be more powerful than Zhong Shenxi?! How is that possible?!

Yun Lingsu was also dumbstruck, muttering, "How is this possible? This can't be... this just can't be!"

The strength Qin Heng had suddenly revealed completely shattered her comprehension. To conjure a giant palm covering four to five kilometers with a mere lift of his hand—what kind of terrifying martial art was this?! Was this even martial arts anymore?!

"Qin Xuantian! Don't try to bluff!" Zhong Shenxi bellowed. "I refuse to believe your giant hand possesses that much power! Come on, let's see whose is stronger—"

BOOM!

Before Zhong Shenxi could finish speaking, the giant palm condensed by Qin Heng slammed down fiercely!

It cut Zhong Shenxi off.

It instantly shattered the firmament, causing the wind and clouds to change color and the earth to tremble, unleashing a series of incessant, deafening roars!

"Turning Heaven Seal! Fall!"
