Chapter 383: Chapter 383: Breakthrough, Divine King Qin Chuan
"Disperse for me!"
Qin Zi looked up at the celestial phenomenon in the sky and sneered coldly, "This person shows no respect to the Celestial Lord, is it not something that can be humiliated?!"
He spoke forcefully, questioning the heavens.
And he had the right to do so because he was the Celestial Lord in Xuanhuang, the nominal Lord of Heaven!
Although he did not live up to the title and lacked the ability to control the heavens, his status still stood there.
"Rumble!"
Instantly, the dark clouds and lightning in the sky quickly dissipated, vanishing into smoke.
"This..."
The white-haired elder looked up at the sky, stunned for a moment, then grief overwhelmed him, and he looked up and wailed.
"Oh heavens, do you also think this old man should be humiliated? I refuse to accept! The heavens are unjust, the heavens are unjust!!"
A generation of Divine King power, cursing like a shrew on the street, with no image left because his dignity had collapsed.
He had gone mad.
People live for face, and today, this face that had been preserved for billions of years was torn to shreds in front of everyone.
So, life cannot go on!
His eyes reddened as he looked at Qin Zi, angrily scolding:
"You little beast, what kind of Celestial Lord are you! Scanning the history of Xuanhuang, which Celestial Lord was not an unparalleled presence that shook the heavens, you sitting in this position is a stain on the throne of the Celestial Lord! You are unworthy!!"
Qin Zi did not refute but slowly stepped forward, looking down into his eyes.
Then, with lightning speed, he slapped the old man’s face.
"Smack!!"
A crisp sound, the white-haired elder’s face turned askew, and then his whole body froze.
As if he was stunned by the hit.
He tilted his head, his facial muscles twitching slightly, and the wrinkles on his weathered face wriggled like worms.
He, like having an epileptic fit, slowly turned his head back, trembling as he said, "You... dare to hit me?"
"Smack!!"
Qin Zi did not speak, gave another slap, making his face turn once again.
"You..."
"Smack!!"
Quickly, another slap followed.
Finally, this continuous humiliation broke the last psychological defense of this Divine King, and he thoroughly exploded.
"Boom—"
An extremely fierce divine light burst out from his body, with a tragic and resolute determination to perish together.
"Not good!"
"He’s reached extreme sublimation!"
"This madman!"
The eight divine kings felt a chill down their spines, attempting to suppress this runaway power but were knocked away by it.
"Whoa!"
A pillar of light surged to the sky, stirring up the clouds, and in the sky appeared brilliant Laws, with the Great Dao resounding!
The white-clothed elder bathed in the radiance, his body slowly stood up, like a true Divine King descending to the earth.
At this moment, he returned to his peak!
"Little beast, how do you wish to die?"
He stared at Qin Zi ahead, tiny bolts of lightning flashing in his eyes, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression.
"You... you..."
Qin Zi only felt suffocated, his body almost crumbling under the pressure, unable to utter a complete sentence.
"Brother Dao, think thrice!"
"He is the Celestial Lord after all, if killed without the giants’ consent, they will surely be enraged!"
"Brother Dao, you’ve sublimed to the extreme, certainly not fearing death, but what about considering your sect and descendants?"
The other experts in the plaza grew anxious.
Though they disliked Qin Zi, if Qin Zi were to die, everyone present today would be hard-pressed to escape blame!
But the white-haired elder remained expressionless, coldly saying, "Forced this old man to extreme sublimation, he shall die today! As for the sect and descendants, hehe, after my death, why care for the flood!"
He had given up.
Living without dignity, what meaning does posthumous matters have?
"Brother Dao, you’re muddle-headed!"
"Don’t act impulsively!"
These experts stood up one after another, intending to intervene.
But the white-haired elder snorted coldly, "All of you stay put, anyone who dares to interfere, I’ll drag them down with me!"
Instantly, no one dared to act rashly, as a madman’s last counterattack is the most terrifying.
The white-haired elder saw this, a bold smile lifting his face, and he laughed heartily, as if exhaling a long-held breath.
"Hahaha, though I die today, I can still ward off powerful experts with a single word and personally slay the Xuanhuang Celestial Lord, this life is enough!"
Having said that, he looked at Qin Zi again, his eyes bursting with unprecedented killing intent, laughing grimly, "Little beast, ready to die?"
"I... I..."
Qin Zi’s face turned pale, already scared out of his wits, swallowed hard, then shouted, "Father—"
"Here I am."
A calm voice sounded.
Qin Zi was suddenly overjoyed!
While the white-haired elder’s pupils shrank, he turned abruptly, only to see a young man in white appear beside him without him knowing when.
"Qin Chuan? Impossible! You were clearly just an Eight-layered Heavenly God, how could you become this powerful?!"
He exclaimed in shock.
He had previously inquired through various means about Qin Chuan’s strength, confirming him as merely a Heavenly God, but now, he had become a Divine King, and one that could rival his extreme sublimation.
He was a Six-realm Divine King!
"Withdraw now, and I can spare your life." Qin Chuan said calmly.
"Heh, I’ve already sublimed to the extreme, I’m going to die anyway, why would I need you to spare my life? How about we die together!"
The white-haired elder’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, countless Law Chains erupted around him, enveloping Qin Chuan and Qin Zi.
He intended to self-destruct.
Once bound by these Law Chains, escape would be impossible, and they would perish together with him.
"It’s your journey to take, not ours."
A shimmering silver-white barrier blossomed from within Qin Chuan, an impregnable defense shielding himself and Qin Zi.
"Ding, ding, ding!!"
The brilliant Law Chains struck the silver barrier, sparking violent sparks, unable to penetrate.
"How could this be? No!!!"
The white-haired elder uttered a scream filled with unwillingness, then infinite radiance burst from within, illuminating the heavens.
"Boom—"
The entire Xuanhuang trembled, every living being momentarily blinded, with some even blinded by the intense light.
"Swoosh!"
Blood rain fell from the sky, the world seemed to echo with the mournful sound of the Great Dao, white celestial flowers descending.
The fall of a Divine King, the heaven and earth mourned.
Much later, the destructive storm dissipated, yet the plaza in the sky had vanished, along with the Xuanhuang Celestial Palace.
Only silhouettes remained suspended.
The patriarchs of each great power, lightly injured by the self-destructive force, appeared slightly disheveled, yet their expressions were complex.
A common fate befalls all.
A being of their own class perished before them, unavoidably stirring emotions.
At this moment, Qin Chuan hovered in the air, sweeping his gaze across everyone, and said loudly, "My son Qin Zi as Xuanhuang Celestial Lord is an indisputable fact, if anyone disagrees, say it, why harbor duplicity?"
"Now, I ask the esteemed present, who supports my son’s position as Xuanhuang Celestial Lord, who opposes?"
