Chapter 500: What Is This Thing?
The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion locked onto all of “Hong’s” clones, marking them so they couldn’t escape.
The Other Mountain Stone tore through space, crossing who knows how many light years, appearing on various planets.
Suddenly, a dead, silent planet spoke in human language.
“Good! You’re all doing very well!” “Hong’s” true form was furious and flustered – he was a planet that had gained sentience.
“There are actually such creatures in the world?” Tianming Daoist was astonished; he had never heard of planets becoming living beings.
“Wrong, he’s not a single person, but rather all the living beings of an entire planet fused into one individual!” The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion had killed many people and was quite familiar with such cruel methods.
“Indeed a visitor from another world, you can see through my identity.” “Hong” laughed loudly.
“I was originally the most advanced civilization in this world. While other civilizations were still in the era of slash-and-burn farming, we had already achieved multiple industrial revolutions.”
“However, our planet was constantly plagued by internal warfare. Eventually, a genius scientist’s family died in the conflict, driving him insane. So he proposed that if everyone became one person, there would be no more wars.”
“He transformed the planet, created me, and I slowly devoured everyone, turning ‘them’ all into ‘me’.”
“I now have nine billion different ways of thinking.”
“Hong” could have millions of avatars with different personalities, simultaneously controlling them and multitasking, precisely because there were too many people’s thoughts within him.
“He’s already touched the threshold of the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.” Tianming Daoist murmured. The other party’s existence form was extremely strange and couldn’t be measured by cultivation levels, but judging from the power displayed, it was definitely not at the Unity Stage level.
But it didn’t matter – they had the Other Mountain Stone here.
Tianming Daoist threw the Other Mountain Stone, directly shattering the planet’s core.
“Wrong, this planet’s core actually has an array formation!” The Other Mountain Stone had pierced completely through the planet before realizing the problem.
The Fanting World didn’t have any concept of cultivation, so where would an array formation come from, let alone such an intricate one.
Left behind by the Outer Realm Demons!
“This is a summoning array – as long as the array is damaged, the Outer Realm Demons will receive the message.”
Everyone from Tianji Tower and the former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion broke out in cold sweat.
What would be the consequence of removing a chess piece left by the Outer Realm Demons? Of course, the Outer Realm Demons would come rushing over.
“Don’t be afraid. Mere Earthly Immortal-level demons are no match for me.” The Other Mountain Stone showed no fear at all; among Earthly Immortals, no one could block its attacks.
“Is that so? This is the first time I’ve seen such an arrogant immortal artifact.”
Suddenly, a terrifying pressure swept through the entire Fanting World, like a primordial beast awakening, capable of swallowing heaven and devouring earth.
People from various civilizations froze, feeling that if they made even the slightest movement, they would fall into eternal damnation.
“So cold…”
Tianming Daoist actually felt cold for the first time in ages.
How was this possible? Those at the Nascent Soul stage already feared no temperature changes, and now that he had reached the peak of the Unity Stage, how could he feel cold?
If Tianming Daoist was like this, needless to say the Tianji Tower disciples were even worse off.
The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion was terrified; he was most sensitive to killing intent. The newcomer’s killing intent was overwhelming – the number of people he had killed probably couldn’t be counted even in hundreds of millions.
“Father!” “Hong” shouted loudly. After devouring everyone, his thoughts had been chaotic. It was this person who called himself the Executor of Honghu who appeared and helped him sort out his thoughts, turning nine billion into a true unity without schizophrenia.
He regarded the Executor of Honghu as his father and took one character from the Executor’s name as his own name to show respect.
“I’m only one step away from taking human form now, Father.”
The Executor of Honghu had told him that as long as he killed everyone in this world, he could transform into human form and go to the Immortal Realm together with the Executor of Honghu.
“Silly child, I was lying to you.”
The Executor of Honghu smiled and struck out, with overwhelming power crushing “Hong” into dust.
This chess piece was no longer needed.
“Celestial Immortal-level Outer Realm Demon.”
Tianming Daoist slowly spat out these words through clenched teeth.
“Trying to mystify people.” The Other Mountain Stone didn’t care about any of this and directly smashed toward the Celestial Immortal-level demon.
The Executor of Honghu blocked with his hand, retreating half a step, somewhat surprised.
“An immortal artifact that has gained intelligence.”
“I remember you’re the Other Mountain Stone forged by the Executor of Penglai, no wonder you have such power. In terms of strength, you’re comparable to an early-stage Celestial Immortal.”
“The Executor of Penglai and I are still evenly matched in combat power. Could a mere small stone forged by him defeat me?”
The Executor of Honghu completely disregarded the Other Mountain Stone’s attack: “Let me show you the terror of a Celestial Immortal.”
The Executor of Honghu mobilized the spiritual energy of the Fanting World, using it to create an extreme cold array formation that dropped the temperature around the Other Mountain Stone to near absolute zero. Space itself solidified, and the Other Mountain Stone was imprisoned within the extreme cold array formation, unable to move.
“Come here.” The Executor of Honghu captured the Other Mountain Stone.
“Just a dead object that obtained some unknown fortune, yet you dare act arrogantly before me.”
“The Executor of Penglai left you on Penglai Immortal Isle in the Nine Provinces World. So that means you all come from the Nine Provinces?” The Executor of Honghu casually glanced at Tianming Daoist and the others.
“The Executor of Karma didn’t do his job properly. Wait until I return and file a complaint against him.” The Executor of Honghu was pleased; he had always been dissatisfied with the Executor of Karma becoming his superior, and now he finally had an opportunity.
“But I don’t need this many witnesses. Just keep that Unity Stage cultivator who looks murderous.”
The Executor of Honghu threw the Other Mountain Stone toward the Tianji Tower people. Wherever the Other Mountain Stone passed, space shattered, revealing the void, and void tempests poured into the Fanting World.
The Other Mountain Stone wanted to change its trajectory. If this continued, these people would undoubtedly die.
If these people died by its attack, it would suffer conscience condemnation for life.
Unfortunately, it had no control over itself. Under the array formation’s restraint, it was completely at the mercy of the Executor of Honghu.
Tianming Daoist also wanted to block it, but he knew his own limitations. An attack powerful enough to kill an Earthly Immortal was simply beyond his ability to withstand.
Tianming Daoist despaired.
“Let me!” The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion rushed forward.
Tianming Daoist was deeply moved: “You don’t need to sacrifice yourself in vain like this…”
The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion pulled out the defense talisman given by Bai Hongtu.
The defense talisman disappeared, replaced by a hollow statue that enveloped the former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion and the others inside.
The Other Mountain Stone struck the statue, but the statue remained completely unmoved, suffering no damage whatsoever. Instead, the shockwaves from the impact propagated through the cosmos, shattering hundreds of planets along the way before the shockwave power diminished.
The former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion turned his head in confusion: “What were you saying about sacrifice just now?”
When it came to maintaining calmness in battle, Tianming Daoist was far inferior to the former Pavilion Master of Heaven’s Kill Pavilion.
“Nothing, nothing.” Tianming Daoist was utterly ashamed. In the heat of the moment, he had actually forgotten about the defense talisman provided by Bai Hongtu.
This was supposedly a defense that even Celestial Immortals couldn’t break.
But why was it a statue, and made of such ordinary material – the most common bronze at that?
The Executor of Honghu frowned tightly; he had encountered something he couldn’t comprehend.
“What is this thing?”
The Other Mountain Stone looked at the statue’s appearance, utterly dumbfounded.
“Human Sovereign Jiang’s statue?!”
