At this mont, everything between heaven and earth seed to freeze.
Only the terrifying boom echoed, shaking the soul to its core.
The colossal stones that blotted out the sun burst into raging flas, plumting toward the earth like a torrential downpour! The inhabitants of Tri-Rainbow State stared up at the sky do, their expressions stupefied, feeling as if the entire sky was ablaze.
That apocalyptic, horrifying sight brought nothing but despair.
"Are we... all going to die?"
"No! The three Saint Lords will protect us!"
…
"This Ten Thousand Manifestations is a divine technique the Ancient Gods used to create mountains and seas, yet you're using it to just ss around," Master Ping couldn't help but complain to Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu stood silently in The Void, looking down at the spectacular, cataclysmic scene below. "A single grain of sand can fill a sea, and ten thousand grains can shatter a realm," he stated slowly. "In my hands, this is a Taoist Art for killing."
Master Ping's heart grew heavy. "But if all these massive rocks actually fall, I'm afraid countless innocent people will get caught in the crossfire."
Luo Xiu's face was a mask of indifference, showing no hint of a psychological burden. "Don't worry. These rocks won't fall."
No sooner had he spoken than three beams of light erupted from the vast earth below. They shot toward the sky from three different locations at astonishing speed, leaving three slender threads of light in their wake.
Suddenly, a series of deafening booms rocked the heavens!
Under the impact of that imnse power, the giant stones exploded into dust long before they could reach the ground!
Seeing this, Master Ping's face lit up with understanding. "So, you were just using this trick to force those three old tortoises out of hiding," he laughed.
Luo Xiu replied, "They are three White Emperors, after all. And this Tri-Rainbow State is their ho turf; they're bound to be backed by so kind of formation."
As the two of them spoke, three figures tore through the sky, unleashing deafening sonic booms!
The three Saint Lords, their faces contorted with rage, stopped before Luo Xiu, their eyes burning as if ready to spew fire.
The Zihong Shengzhu glared at Luo Xiu and spat coldly, "For the sake of your own petty grudge, you disregard the lives of everyone! Luo Tian, today, we will rid the world of you, this demon plaguing our chaotic tis!"
The White Rainbow Saint Master followed, gritting his teeth. "No need to waste words on him. His cultivation is gone, and he's just relying on this fatso to act tough. What trouble can he possibly cause?"
The three of them could sense no trace of a cultivation aura on Luo Xiu. Besides, they were the ones who had personally crippled his cultivation. They concluded that Luo Xiu was now a cripple, nothing to fear. He must be relying on Master Ping to act so boldly. And in their eyes, Master Ping was nothing to worry about either.
The Saint Lord Red Rainbow's lips curled into a vicious sneer. "In that case, allow to be the one to send the Azure Emperor on his way."
To personally slay a legendary figure like the Azure Emperor... this is undoubtedly a feat that will grant immortal fa!
Master Ping felt utterly exasperated. "Hey, kid," he sent via Divine Sense Communication, "I'm getting dragged into this and taking the damn bla for you! Let be blunt: I'm no good at fighting. At best, I can muster the power of a Red Emperor. You're on your own from there."
Before Master Ping could even finish, the overeager Saint Lord Red Rainbow shot forward, bypassing him entirely to attack Luo Xiu directly.
In the eyes of the Saint Lord Red Rainbow, Luo Xiu was already a dead man. Even if he was the Azure Emperor, a man whose cultivation had been crippled was nothing more than a useless dog.
"You worthless Azure Emperor! Allow this senior to personally send you on your way!"
The Saint Lord Red Rainbow's eyes were filled with malice. His strike was a killing blow, a palm aid straight at Luo Xiu's forehead.
However, the next mont, a dense Aura of the Dead blasted him away.
Luo Xiu hadn't moved an inch. Black energy swirled around him as strange, dark patterns crept across his skin. At the sa ti, his black hair grew wildly, cascading down to his waist.
SMACK!
With a flick of his wrist, Luo Xiu slapped the Saint Lord Red Rainbow so hard it sent him reeling. He stumbled back to his two brothers, brought crashing back to the cruel reality of the situation.
Seeing this, the Zihong Shengzhu and the White Rainbow Saint Master were aghast, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Luo Tian, your cultivation... Wasn't it already destroyed? How can you still…"
Three years ago, in the Boundless Heavens, these three brothers had fled imdiately and hadn't witnessed the world-shaking battle that followed. Their mories were seemingly frozen at the mont Luo Xiu was crippled. And for the past three years, the brothers had been in seclusion, so they had heard nothing of that battle from others.
A small smirk played on Luo Xiu's lips. He felt no need to explain himself to them.
He stepped through The Void as if walking on solid ground, advancing toward the three Saint Lords. His long black hair billowed in the wind like a graceful ink wash painting.
The three Saint Lords' eyes trembled, and they imdiately retreated, putting distance between themselves and Luo Xiu. Despite their confusion, the terrifying aura now radiating from Luo Xiu ant they couldn't afford the slightest carelessness.
"Use the Tri-Saint Dao Light! Execute this demon!"
Without hesitation, the three played their strongest trump card. They each ford a series of profound spells with their hands. In the next instant, an extraordinary light surged from their three holy lands. Three colored beams flew into the sky, instantly weaving together into a single, tri-colored Sword Light that slashed down toward Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu's brows furrowed slightly. He could sense this aura was unusual.
"I didn't expect you to be hiding a trick like this. Mildly interesting. But in the face of absolute power… never mind. Bullying the weak isn't exactly sothing to be proud of."
「A mont passed.」
On the summit of Purple Rainbow Mountain.
On the vast Taoist platform.
The three Saint Lords fell from the sky, crashing into the ground with a trendous boom and creating three massive craters.
Inside the craters, all three were drenched in blood, their faces bruised and swollen—a miserable sight to behold.
Luo Xiu slowly descended from the sky, looking down on them from on high.
"Spare… Your Majesty, spare us! We were blinded by our own greed and offended you, Your Majesty. From this day forward, we are willing to serve you!" the Zihong Shengzhu pleaded, trembling as he scrambled to his knees, his dignity cast aside.
Luo Xiu's absolutely overwhelming strength had extinguished any thought of resistance within them. Even their vaunted Tri-Saint Dao Light was useless against him! They had worked too hard to achieve their current Dao Fruit, so all three of them were terrified of death.
Luo Xiu said nonchalantly, "Don't worry. For Qing Kuang's sake, I will only kill you three old dogs. I won't make things difficult for the disciples of your three lands." Then his tone shifted, a faint smile on his lips. "Of course, as compensation to … all the resources from your three great holy lands must be handed over."
Hearing this, all three stared in shock. This was too much. This was tantamount to plundering the very foundations of Tri-Rainbow State!
But Luo Xiu wasn't negotiating.
With a wave of his hand, three streams of Death Spirit Sword Qi tore through the air, instantly piercing their abdons and obliterating their Dantian! He wanted these three to savor the sa agony he had felt when his own cultivation was destroyed.
「A mont later.」
Only after the three Saint Lords, who had been writhing and screaming on the ground, fell silent did Luo Xiu finally send them on their way.
"Lead the way to your storeroom."
Luo Xiu looked at a nearby Purple Rainbow Mountain disciple, his command carrying a tone that brooked no refusal.
The disciple shivered, his legs turning to jelly, barely able to keep him upright. "Please… please follow ."
「After a short while.」
Luo Xiu arrived at the storeroom of Purple Rainbow Mountain. Three Elders of the Red Emperor Realm stood before a grand, ancient stone gate, simring with a rage they dared not voice.
"Open the gate."
One of the Elders said cautiously, "This door… can only be opened when we three Elders and the Zihong Shengzhu activate a spell in unison."
BOOM!
Before he could finish, Luo Xiu simply punched the spell-restricted stone door, blasting it to pieces. He had no patience for pointless talk when action would suffice.
Inside the stone gate was a vast space. All sorts of cultivation resources and Heaven and Earth Treasures were piled so high they ford small mountains.
This Tri-Rainbow State is so damn rich, it's practically oozing wealth! Even Luo Xiu felt a montary sense of disbelief.
But he was too lazy to take inventory of his "spoils." Whatever it was, he swept it all into the Land of Lawlessness, acting like a true bandit.
「A mont later.」
After the mountains of resources had been cleared out, Luo Xiu's gaze was drawn to an ancient stone coffin. It reminded him of the coffin of the Emperor of Calamity Extermination, and he recalled the Emperor's words, telling him to find all ten coffins. Luo Xiu had no leads, so he never expected to stumble upon one here by accident.
"Whose coffin is that?" he asked suddenly.
An Elder replied, "That… that belongs to the Tri-Rainbow Great Emperor. His body lies within."
Luo Xiu's heart skipped a beat, but he betrayed no emotion. "I'll be taking it," he said flatly.
"This…"
The three Elders looked troubled.
This demon! He would even take our ancestor's body!
If the Tri-Rainbow Great Emperor were still alive, how could he possibly tolerate... Ah, right. The Azure Emperor was the one who killed him in the first place.
The Elder sighed. "As you wish, Your Majesty."
