Chapter 452: Instant Kill

At this moment, Lin Wuye even had a strange feeling.

It seemed that there was no need to set any traps with the Darkness Origin; he might be able to take down Lu Ye all on his own.

Although Lu Ye had previously defeated enemies above his level.

But who were those enemies?

After all, he was a Quasi-Emperor reincarnated.

And now, they were in the Sixth Heaven, which was different from the previous realms. Before the Sixth Heaven, the cultivation stages were just beginning, and countless people had already been eliminated.

In the earlier realms, even the weak could achieve some results through hard work.

But the Everlasting Realm is a dividing line; those who lack talent and comprehension, no matter how hard they cultivate, can’t grasp the mysteries of longevity.

Who here has reached this level if not the chosen ones?

Why not give it a shot?

Lin Wuye was genuinely tempted.

However, he quickly calmed himself. Lu Ye was a Celestial Lord reincarnated; even if he was currently stronger than Lu Ye, that guy surely had some escape tricks up his sleeve.

Better stick to the plan to avoid any mishaps, and definitely avoid looking foolish.

He kept closing in on Lu Ye.

Lu Ye, furrowing his brow, flew through the air, vigilant of his surroundings.

They were getting closer.

Lin Wuye was sure there were no others around.

Confirm, confirm, and confirm again.

Finally, he made his move.

A massive black hand shot toward Lu Ye. This was no ordinary grab; he was unleashing unparalleled divine powers, distorting the vast void into a force that coalesced into a grasp.

He never underestimated his opponents.

This move was meant to gauge Lu Ye’s true strength.

Lu Ye finally seemed to react, turning back to look at the black hand; his fist had been clenched for quite some time.

Lu Ye felt a weight in his chest.

This Lin Wuye was the first opponent he encountered post-empowerment with Celestial Lord Fist.

He should feel quite honored.

In fact, what he was using now wasn’t even the strongest version of Celestial Lord Fist since it hadn’t absorbed energy from the heavens and the earth.

It was merely powered by the Primordial Force within Lu Ye.

But it should be enough!

Lu Ye let out a low shout.

“Celestial Lord Fist!”

He pulled back his body as his long black hair whipped around.

As he raised his fist, Lin Wuye’s smile suddenly froze.

A terrifying thought crept into his heart.

That is… it’s over!

This punch looked plain and seemed harmless.

But the moment he lifted his fist, even before he threw it, he realized it was doom!

Don’t be fooled by the fierce battles with the Heavenly Gate and the flashy techniques.

That’s just surface-level; now, this punch embodies the Dao, embodies the Law!

His expression twisted.

He didn’t even have time for anything else and could only scream,

“Save me!”

That scream was heartbreaking.

Then came a blinding light that shattered the black hand, obliterated the shadow, shattered the void.

That dazzling light surged across the heavens and the earth.

From who knows how far away, everyone turned to see that shocking beam.

Even those in the Seventh Heaven caught sight of it.

Ultimate power, ultimate Dao.

The world centered around this light beam; this punch was invincible!

Lin Wuye was obliterated without a second thought.

There was no chance for escape, not even the Darkness Origin could save him, nor did it intend to.

At that moment, a massive roar echoed through the land.

Lu Ye withdrew his fist, a flush of excitement on his face.

He was invigorated because this punch finally felt a bit like the Celestial Lord Fist.

He was one step closer to mastering the complete Celestial Lord Fist.

Awesome!

Lu Ye summoned the Emperor’s Banner, and just as he was about to collect the soul, he couldn’t help but exclaim softly.

Was that a True Spirit?

The energy of this punch was so immense that it had directly turned the soul into a True Spirit.

But True Spirit works; he could still use soul power to replenish his energy.

This gave Lu Ye a warning: he needed to be a bit more cautious with massacring in the future to avoid turning everything into True Spirits; that could be quite bothersome.

Qing Xuan Daoist and others appeared nearby in a flash.

Spotting Lu Ye, they immediately gasped.

“Master, that punch just now…”

“Yeah, that was me,” Lu Ye admitted straightforwardly.

Instantly, gasps of surprise arose.

Wow!

That’s terrifying!

How long has the Master even been in the Sixth Heaven to become this powerful?

They had all witnessed Lin Wuye’s strength, yet he was crushed by a single punch, not just crushed, but nearly sent beyond the Sixth Heaven.

This suggested that this punch had a killing power far exceeding that of just eliminating one Lin Wuye.

Forget one Lin Wuye; even a group of them, if they all stood in a line, would likely be crushed by the unstoppable might of that punch.

The Master was quite frightening.

“The Heavenly Gate can be unsealed now; the Darkness Origin has been waiting for me for a long time. I’m going to see it!”

With that, Lu Ye’s body vanished.

…

“Useless! Useless!”

The Darkness Origin, sensing Lin Wuye’s fall, couldn’t help but curse.

That was way too quick.

One round, and he was done for; useless, absolutely useless!

Why are the people of this time so weak? Where’s the ultra-strong antagonist with whom Lu Ye could have a titanic clash, rivers of blood flowing everywhere?

Useless!

They’re all useless!

The Darkness Origin was practically fuming.

Not a glimmer of hope in sight.

Did they really need to rely on those women to present any threat to Lu Ye?

Time for a dark upheaval!

I must urgently start the dark upheaval; the last time it was far too scattered. This time, every Celestial Lord and Great Emperor must act together to eliminate Lu Ye!

Just take down Lu Ye!

Make him die! Make him die!

The Darkness Origin was genuinely exasperated.

However, it was evident that starting the dark upheaval wasn’t easy, as the laws set by the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens were still in effect.

To instigate a dark upheaval, they would need to suppress the laws of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens immensely, and to do that would require several Celestial Lords to act at the same time, risking the fall of even a Celestial Lord.

Which Celestial Lord would willingly face death?

If it weren’t for a very ancient Celestial Lord reaching the end of his strength in the last life, the dark upheaval would have never occurred.

Past dark upheavals lacked the involvement of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens; they typically happened after a Saint vanished.

And now, a damned Nine Heavens had already vanished yet still guarded these weaklings!

So annoying!

Huh?

Wait, is that Lu Ye coming?
