CHAPTER 956: CHAPTER 94: DIVINE DECREE

"Is this... the power of the ’Heavenly Realm’?"

The Chongming Divine Power broke through the anomaly of the Three Realms unification.

The Great Phoenix Cave Heaven, almost intertwined with the Moon Hidden Realm, was pierced by a ray of heavenly light!

Xie Xuanyi felt the vast and abundant power within him, having an illusion that if he reached out, he could smooth out all the blue sky.

Although Xuan Ming only had a trace of a remnant soul.

But due to the existence of the [Primordial Swallowing Sacred Realm], the Heavenly Realm strength of this trace of remnant soul was preserved.

"I know who you are..."

The Holy Empress stared intently at the young man in black not far away, her voice hoarse.

She knew Xie Xuanyi had gone to the South Border.

She also knew that a Bai Ze Secret Tomb had suddenly emerged in the South Border.

At this moment, the ’Phoenix Blood’ in Yuan Huang’s body was boiling and burning, and she could sense that the divine power descending from the heavens resonated with her own bloodline.

The answer was on the brink of revelation.

A thousand years ago, the "Chongming Bird" was among the top powerful bloodlines in the Demon Country.

After the great calamity.

This clan disappeared completely from the world.

The great calamity descended, ancient history shattered, and traces from a thousand years ago were almost impossible to find. However, bits and pieces of records were left in the ancient texts of the Great Chu Imperial City.

The strongest of the Chongming Bird clan a thousand years ago was named "Xuan Ming," reaching a cultivation realm as high as the Heavenly Human realm!

Xuan Ming had another identity... that of Bai Ze’s first disciple!

"Chongming..."

Yuan Huang stared at the vertical pupil, speaking softly.

From this point, all the "strange events" that had occurred in the South Border recently all had their answers.

No wonder Xie Xuanyi could single-handedly slay seven pseudo-saints.

No wonder Xie Xuanyi, who had not become a Yang God, could spar with a Yang God.

For a thousand years, no one had ever been able to accomplish such a divine feat, but if he had obtained the "Bai Ze Legacy," then everything made sense.

"Such... an enormous fortune..."

Yuan Huang looked at the young man in black in front of her, speaking coldly, "Do you think this will be enough to kill me?"

Her Divine Thought swept over.

This Xie Xuanyi, although blessed with [Chongming] Divine Skills.

But his flesh body was just a mortal shell; in this level of confrontation, the Martial Arts Divine Embryo in the Yin God Realm appeared too fragile.

"Die!"

The Holy Empress suddenly brushed her sleeves, and a portion of the Phoenix Fire demon tide surged towards Xie Xuanyi!

Rumbling!

Heaven and earth collapsed, and the demon tide descended!

Watching the descending Phoenix Fire filling the sky, Xuan Ming did not show fear. Instead of retreating, he stepped forward again.

He pressed out a palm, simultaneously uttering two words softly.

"Swallowing Dao."

These two words seemed to contain some supreme Tao of heaven and earth.

Upon the utterance of "Swallowing Dao."

The scorching demon tide contacting Xie Xuanyi’s palm shattered instantly, opening up on its own; the space within a ten-zhang radius of where Xie Xuanyi stood suspended cleared of demon fire, turning into a pure vacuum.

"... Primordial Swallowing Divine Power?!"

The Holy Empress widened her Feng Mou, a trace of horror passing through her eyes.

She could no longer care about the Sword Origin River.

Xuan Ming, who was killing right in front of her, was more terrifying than Zhao Chunyang on the ground!

"Demon Magic, Phoenix Tide!"

Yuan Huang’s hands quickly performed seals, directly condensing a great tide to smash down on the young man in black who was taking steps in the void.

The rolling demon fire descended like purgatory.

Xuan Ming looked up, his expression calm. He extended his palm, and the Swallowing Dao Divine Power only covered a range of ten zhang... but within ten zhang, all Dao was removed!

The Phoenix Fire filling the sky could not penetrate.

"All Living Beings Dao Source, go!"

The Holy Empress roared, eyes nearly splitting, screeching loudly, waving her sleeves again.

Within the great tide of Phoenix Fire, countless twisted humanoid beings struggled to surge towards Xie Xuanyi! Under the reflection of the "Undying Tree," these beings had attained Dao Fruit, ascending to Heavenly People alongside the Holy Empress, enjoying the ultimate Taoist Intent Source. These beings were stained with a large amount of "Cause and Effect," and filthy "karma"!

Zhao Chunyang’s Sword Origin River had been tainted by this move...

Seeing this scene.

Xuan Ming frowned slightly.

He spoke again, issuing the second decree.

"Swallowing Qi."

The effective range of this decree was still within a ten-zhang radius.

Rumbling!

Countless twisted humanoid beings crashed into this invisible barrier, shattering into pieces, with filthy karma and Phoenix Fire burning together, but they were completely isolated outside by the two decrees of "Swallowing Qi" and "Swallowing Dao."

Phoenix Fire was the condensation of Taoist Intent, belonging to the "Dao."

All Living Beings were flesh bodies, belonging to the "Qi."

With his vertical pupil open, Xie Xuanyi walked within the rolling Phoenix Fire atop the Heavenly Peak. This grand Phoenix Tide, enough to burn everything in the world, was piled ten thousand zhang high, yet it kept retreating, retreating further... He seemed to become the sole supreme ruler above and below the heavens, with [Chongming] Divine Power constantly responding from the Heavenly Peak, the vertical pupil’s light being the sharpest sword cutting this heaven and earth.

Without the protection of the "Undying Tree."

The Holy Empress’s Phoenix Fire tide would have been completely sliced apart by [Chongming].

"... How is this possible?"

The Holy Empress looked at this scene in disbelief, the casual calmness and arrogant confidence on her face disappearing once more.

Despite relying on the Undying Tree, she had ascended to the "Heavenly Human Realm."

Though becoming Heavenly People.

This ascent was exceedingly forced, with severely lacking foundational strength.

She was not Zhao Chunyang.

Facing a confrontation with a "true Heavenly Human" from a thousand years ago, just a few moves had determined the outcome.

In a direct confrontation, the Primordial Swallowing Divine Power completely crushed the Great Phoenix Cave Heaven!

Seeing the black silhouette, step by step, drawing closer, fear stirred in Yuan Huang’s heart.

She gathered all her Primordial Energy, preparing to use her divine skills again.

But it was already too late.

The third divine decree fell like a thunderclap.

"Swallowing Yuan."

Xie Xuanyi had already reached the Holy Empress’s presence, calmly and coldly watching the tall woman enveloped in burning light, issuing the third divine decree. Within a ten-zhang radius, all Primordial Energy was removed, and the vast Primordial Energy within Yuan Huang’s Qi Sea Acupoints was swept completely clean at this moment... It was her first time facing the legendary [Primordial Swallowing Divine Power].

Dao Intent, body Qi, Primordial Power, all were forbidden.

Yuan Huang felt an overwhelming sense of returning to the "primal state" of nothingness.

She had nothing left.

She was left with nothing but an empty, naked shell—

The blazing light shattered, leaving no trace of the Phoenix Fire behind.

Yuan Huang locked eyes with that vertical pupil, only to feel an intense heart-wrenching pain come over her. She lowered her head; the young man in black pierced her with a steely gaze, as the third decree was carried out, all the Primordial Energy within the ten-zhang radius was swept away, and the immense Primordial Energy within Yuan Huang’s Qi Sea Acupoints was also completely cleansed at this moment...

Finally.

Yuan Huang was nailed to the ground against the Immortal Tree.

She lay there with an ashen face, as her blood continuously flowed down, eagerly absorbed by the Immortal Tree.

Xie Xuanyi’s vertical pupil on his brow did not close; it continued to gaze at the Demon Phoenix before him with a long, cold stare.

In the chaos of the Yuan Swallowing Holy Realm.

The storm had already extinguished.

Observing Yuan Huang intently, "Xie Xuanyi" spoke in a cold, indifferent tone.

"You... have truly disappointed me."
