Amidst the terrifying roar.
Hunyuan State fell like a stone from the sky, plumting rapidly.
After ten breaths, it completely detached from Central Earth with a snapping sound, falling into the infinite darkness of the void.
Terrifying waves of space power swept across the entire Great State like a tsunami.
The boundless Great State instantly crumbled, torn into countless fragnts of the continent.
The mountains, rivers, and vegetation on it shattered in an instant, and the spirit beasts that couldn’t escape were torn to pieces in a mont.
The swarming Ancient Giants in flight were swept into the endless void by the power of nothingness.
This was true for ordinary Ancient Giants and the Giant King realm alike.
Cries of despair, wails, and shouts echoed through the earth and sky.
Inside the Domain Mirror, Princess Zi Jiang knelt on the ground, pounding the mirror with such force that her palms were battered, and her blood flowed.
"No!!!"
She scread in despair, golden tears streaming from her eyes.
Why did it turn out like this?
It was supposed to be rely a hunt for the Ancient Giants, but in the end, it beca a total rout!
Those who descended to Central Earth, beside the Giant Emperors, were all lost.
Never in millennia had any battle been so tragic!
At this mont.
She saw Jiang Fan, watching him with hands behind his back, calmly gazing at the Ancient Giant swarms being torn apart and swallowed by the void. She was furiously enraged and shouted:
"Jiang Fan!!! Are you happy now?"
"You in Central Earth have won!"
Jiang Fan looked up at the sky, shaking his head slightly:
"How can I be happy?"
"My forr master, Yunyang Master, is dead, and a solemn elder, Ning Kun, is also gone."
"Heavenly Listening Bodhisattva, both enemy and friend, is gone too."
"The Forgetful Wild Elder, who favored , has died too."
"Now, even Xingyuan Venerable, whom I respected the most, is about to die."
"You tell , how can I possibly be happy?"
Jiang Fan lowered his head, slowly looking at her, his reddened eyes full of unwavering killing intent:
"Rember what I said before the battle?"
Princess Zi Jiang glared at Jiang Fan with hatred, a mory involuntarily surfacing, her body trembling as her pupils contracted dramatically.
Jiang Fan held the Domain Mirror close to his face, letting Princess Zi Jiang see the ice-cold depths within his eyes:
"It seems you’ve rembered!"
"I once said that one day, I would counterattack the Heavenly Realm and let your Ancient Giants experience the feeling of being hunted!"
"Those who kill will always be killed in return!"
"When you see us as cattle and sheep, you should be prepared to beco cattle and sheep yourselves!"
Princess Zi Jiang trembled violently.
At that ti, she had mocked Jiang Fan’s words.
Because the hope that Central Earth would even survive this catastrophe was slim.
However, Central Earth won, and the Heavenly Realm suffered a miserable defeat.
Now, she couldn’t laugh anymore!
Every word this man said was gradually coming true.
The counterattack against the Heavenly Realm, the hunt for the Ancient Giants, would soon be realized!
Princess Zi Jiang shook her head: "No! You won’t succeed!"
"With the Giant Emperors around, whoever heads for the Heavenly Realm will die!"
Jiang Fan’s gaze was profound as he pointed at the pillar of light above:
"Do you know what it can bring?"
Princess Zi Jiang replied: "The Peace Monunt, but it can only spare you from the next millennium’s battle."
"It cannot help you resist the Giant Emperors!"
Jiang Fan laughed: "Does Central Earth still need the Peace Monunt?"
"Do we wait until a millennium later for you to invade again?"
"The misfortune of Central Earth should end with our generation."
"I will sell the Peace Monunt to worlds in need, on the condition that all their Sages co to serve Central Earth!"
"I will not rest until the Heavenly Realm is destroyed!!!"
Princess Zi Jiang’s pupils shrank to a pin.
As smart as she was, she had already judged the feasibility of this plan.
Many worlds needed a Peace Monunt, even if it ant sacrificing a few Sages.
No world would refuse to send their Sages to help annihilate the Southern Heavenly Realm!
"No! Please don’t!" Princess Zi Jiang pleaded, trembling all over: "The Heavenly Realm is left with only the old, weak, won, and children."
"Spare them, please."
"I beg of you!"
Jiang Fan replied expressionlessly: "The old, weak, won, and children?"
"When strong, you see the beings of Central Earth as cattle and sheep; when weak, you seek sympathy as the old, weak, won, and children?"
"To , Giants only co in two kinds."
"Those who are alive, and those who are dead!"
Princess Zi Jiang urgently said: "Jiang Fan, I apologize on behalf of the Giants to Central Earth."
"Please be lenient and spare them!"
Jiang Fan sneered: "Don’t utter such immature words in desperate tis."
"It doesn’t match your intelligence!"
Finishing his words, he silenced the Domain Mirror, remaining unmoved by Princess Zi Jiang’s shouts.
He simply let her quietly watch as her kinsn fell into the boundless void.
In the sky.
The Royal Chief of the Central Tribe was overwheld with grief and anger.
"Jiang Fan!!!"
His eyes were filled with rage, wishing to tear Jiang Fan to pieces!!!
If not for Jiang Fan’s obstruction, the Heavenly Remnant City Lord would have succeeded!
Watching as the last Nascent Soul elites of the Heavenly Realm all fell into the void, his heart ached as if cut by a knife, and he wanted to rush into the void to save so of them if possible.
But the Great Wine Sacrifice stopped him, saying:
"I told you to retreat earlier, but you wagered everything; now regret is too late!"
"Hold them back until the Ancient Giants perish!"
The Sages, weakened to an extre, forced themselves to restrain the frenzied Giant Emperors and those of the Ten Sins of Central Earth.
Not long after.
With a massive rumbling sound.
Hunyuan State, which had fallen into the void, finally shattered into countless pieces.
Except for Wenhai Academy, sustained by the Array, the rest had turned to ruins, and life struggled to survive.
And Xingyuan Venerable, who held onto hope, had lost all his vast energy.
As well as nearly all his life force.
He could no longer hold on, like a tattered sack blown away by the void.
Yet, several breaths swept over.
Several Venerates intervened and brought him back.
Jiang Fan put away the Void Fishing Rod he had prepared, watching Xingyuan Venerable descend slowly.
No one could bear to let soone who sacrificed everything for Central Earth be taken by the void.
Jiang Fan gently nudged True Word Venerable.
Xingyuan Venerable still had a trace of breath left, this was True Word Venerable’s last chance.
True Word Venerable hesitated for a mont.
Seeing Xingyuan Venerable’s body exhausted from wish-making, his head full of white hair, his appearance aged.
The coldness in her heart lted away.
She flew forward, caught Xingyuan Venerable, tears glistening, finally uttering that word after many years.
"Father."
Xingyuan Venerable’s closed eyes opened because of that call.
A luster surged in his dim eyes.
Weakly, he took out a jade box.
Inside were two golden orbs, one larger than the other.
The larger one was the rit that Jiang Fan had given him, and the smaller was the rit he had accumulated over the years.
"Buyu...I won’t be able to see you married..."
"These two rits... are your dowry..."
True Word Venerable wept like rain: "Father!"
Xingyuan Venerable placed the jade box in her arms, his hands fell powerless, and his eyes slowly closed.
With a satisfied smile on his face.
"The mission of the Confucian practitioner... is finally completed..."
"May Central Earth... be at peace for all eternity..."
As the last wisp of voice faded away.
Xingyuan Venerable permanently closed his eyes.
The leading figure of the contemporary Confucianism, Xingyuan Venerable, thus fell.
