Chapter 31 Three Lotuses Seal the Heavens
The easternmost point of the sea is the edge of the primordial land.
Further east lies the boundary between the endless void turbulence and chaos. Here, fierce winds rage, space is shattered, and earth, water, fire, and wind are in complete disarray. If an ordinary Golden Immortal were to be accidentally swept into it, he would be instantly pulverized.
"boom--!"
A streak of dark yellow light, carrying a broken body and a panicked soul, crashed through layers of spatial barriers and plunged into the depths of this chaotic void.
As the light faded, the extremely disheveled figure of the Eastern King Duke was revealed.
At this point, he had completely lost the air of being the "top male immortal."
His hair was disheveled, his Taoist robe was stained with blood, his once rosy face was now as pale as paper, and his aura was extremely weak.
In order to escape from Taiyi's deadly Chaos Bell, he burned a full thirty percent of his original essence and blood. At this moment, he felt his primordial spirit was dizzy, as if he would be exhausted at any moment.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
Dongwanggong, panting heavily, looked back towards the direction of the prehistoric continent, still shaken.
Above the distant East Sea, starlight faded and demonic energy soared into the sky, but the Heavenly Court's pursuers did not seem to have entered this chaotic void.
"We escaped—we finally escaped!"
A surge of joy at surviving a calamity welled up in Dongwanggong's heart, and his tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
"Dijun! Taiyi!"
"You just wait! I will never forget this humiliation!"
"I will travel to Zixiao Palace and plead your atrocities before the Dao Ancestor's gate! I will beg the Dao Ancestor to issue a decree that your demonic Heavenly Court will be utterly annihilated!"
The Eastern King gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and malice.
Although he was defeated, he still possessed the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner and the Dragon Head Cane. If he could file a complaint with the Dao Ancestor, he might still have a chance to turn the tide.
With this in mind, he mustered his strength, prepared to identify the direction, and detour to the Chaos Purple Cloud Palace.
However, in the instant he turned around...
His body suddenly stiffened.
A chill, even more suffocating than when facing the Taiyi Chaos Bell, instantly shot from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head!
Not far in front of him, amidst the chaotic void, a figure stood silently, seemingly out of nowhere.
The man was dressed in a dark blue Taoist robe, his long hair was casually draped over his shoulders, his hands were behind his back, and the hem of his robe fluttered in the violent winds of the void, yet he remained as still as a mountain.
He stood there quietly, as if he were part of the ancient void, or as if he were a death god who had been waiting there for countless years.
Although only a silhouette was visible, the aura emanating from it, the deep-seated ruthlessness and domineering presence—
Even if he turns to ashes, the Eastern King Duke will still recognize him!
"Fellow Daoist Dongwanggong, you seem to be in a hurry and in such a disheveled state. Where are you headed?"
The man slowly turned around, revealing a gaunt and indifferent face, a mocking smile playing on his lips. In his eyes, red, white, and black light intertwined, like an abyss.
"Kun—Kunpeng!!!"
The Eastern King let out a scream as if he had seen a ghost, his voice becoming sharp and distorted with extreme fear.
"It's you again!!!"
If Di Jun and Tai Yi are his mortal enemies on the road to hegemony, then Kunpeng is his destined demon star and the greatest nightmare in the depths of his heart!
Back in the East Sea, it was this very person who stole his companion spiritual treasure, the Jingyang Bell, cut off his arm, and destroyed his foundation for cultivation!
Now, just when he had finally escaped and thought he had escaped a calamity, this jinx has reappeared here!
"Impossible—how did you get here?!"
The Eastern King retreated step by step, his hand holding the apricot-yellow flag trembling violently.
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."
Kunpeng smiled calmly, looking at Ziguang as if he were prey falling into a trap: "From the moment Dijun and Taiyi sent their troops to Zifu Continent, I knew you would be defeated."
"Given your temperament, if you were to lose, you would surely use the apricot-yellow flag as an excuse to escape."
"And this void at the far end of the East Sea is your only way out, and also the only way for you to reach the Purple Cloud Palace."
"I have been waiting here for quite some time."
Upon hearing these words, Dong Wanggong felt a chill run through his body.
It turns out that all of this was part of this person's plan!
He risked his life to fight his way out of the Heavenly Court's encirclement, only to find himself in an even more terrifying predicament!
"Kunpeng! Do you truly intend to exterminate us all?!"
The Eastern King Duke roared, his voice fierce but his heart pounding: "I am the head of the male immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor! I am protected by the Apricot Yellow Banner, you cannot kill me! As long as I hold out until the Dao Ancestor notices—"
"The apricot-yellow flag?"
Kunpeng glanced at the small, dark yellow flag in the hand of the Eastern King Duke, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes: "The Five Primordial Flags, the central Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag, is indeed a top-tier defensive treasure. With ten thousand golden lotuses, nothing can break it."
"But do not forget, this flag belongs to the 'Shi' (士), the essence of the Central Plains."
"If we were on the primordial land, with your feet firmly planted on the earth and the earth's energy flowing endlessly, it would indeed take me quite a bit of effort to break through your tortoise shell."
At this point, Kunpeng abruptly changed the subject, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "But this place is deep within the void! Neither above nor below!"
"Away from the earth and without the support of its energy, how much power can this Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner unleash?"
Upon hearing this, the Eastern King's face turned ashen.
He then realized that his greatest reliance, in this void environment, actually had such a fatal flaw!
"die!"
Kunpeng didn't give him any chance to think of a countermeasure and attacked directly!
"Three Lotuses Seal the Heavens!"
hum!hum!hum!
With a thought, three divine lights shot into the sky from Kunpeng's body.
The Twelfth Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus resides atop, igniting a raging inferno of karmic fire that seals off the heavens and burns away all life.
The Ninth-Rank World-Destroying Black Lotus dwells below, emanating endless destructive demonic energy that spreads across the void, cutting off all escape routes.
The twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus resides in the center, emitting countless rays of purifying divine light, stabilizing the universe and isolating it from the laws of heaven and earth.
Red, white, and black!
The three innate lotus platforms, representing the three realms of heaven, earth, and humanity, instantly constructed an unparalleled cage, completely sealing off the void within a radius of ten thousand miles!
"Open it!"
The Eastern King was terrified and frantically urged the apricot-yellow flag to move.
"Buzz—"
'
Ten thousand golden lotuses emerged once more, attempting to break open the three-colored cage.
However, this time, the once dazzling golden lotus appeared somewhat dim and lackluster in this secluded void.
As Kunpeng said, the apricot-yellow flag belongs to the earth element, and it is weak when it is away from the ground.
Now, the three lotus platforms of the same level have joined forces to seal off the energy of heaven and earth, severing the last connection with the primordial land.
The Eastern King felt that the apricot-yellow flag in his hand was extremely heavy. Every time he activated it, he had to consume a huge amount of his own original magic power, but he could no longer get replenishment from heaven and earth.
"Just as I expected! Damn it! Damn it all!"
The Eastern King was filled with despair.
But Kunpeng's offensive has only just begun.
"Yuan Tu! Abi! Slay!"
Kunpeng reached out and summoned two killing swords into his palm.
Unlike before, this time, he imbued his newly comprehended Seventh Law of Destruction onto the two swords!
"Hiss hiss hiss"
A dark aura of destruction swirled around the swords, giving the already ferocious twin swords an even greater sense of desolation that could wither all things.
"kill!"
The Kunpeng moved with lightning speed, instantly closing in on its target.
The two swords transformed into two world-destroying black dragons, launching a fierce and relentless attack on the pale golden lotus light barrier.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Each strike was accompanied by the shattering of the golden lotus.
The law of destruction is all-pervasive, seeping through the cracks in the golden lotus and frantically eroding the defensive barrier of the apricot-yellow banner, consuming the already meager essence of the Eastern King Duke.
