At that moment, the Supreme attacking Battle Asura ignored the Heaven-Shattering Halberd’s radiance slashing toward him from behind. He merely concentrated most of his protective divine light onto his back, forcibly taking the blow head-on.
Meanwhile, all his killing intent and power erupted without reservation, converging entirely in his claw!
He poured everything into it and continued clawing viciously toward the light barrier of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar—and toward those young, icy faces within!
The might of the Imperial Dao was only inches away! Never had the shadow of death been so clear!
Ling Xi urged the demon jar with all her strength, but with cultivation at the Saint Realm driving an Imperial Armament, she still found it difficult to withstand the Supreme’s all-out killing blow.
Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, Mo Yu, Fatty Wang, and the others felt their scalps tingle. Every hair on their bodies stood on end, and even their souls trembled!
This was instinctive fear born from the difference between their very levels of existence!
At the critical juncture between life and death, the last trace of fear in their eyes was replaced by blazing battle intent and ferocity!
Xiao Ruobai’s eyes instantly turned pure gold. His vital energy surged like a volcanic eruption, pouring madly into the battle halberd in his hands!
Fang Hanyu merged with his sword, his entire being transforming into an indomitable, peerless sword intent!
The qilin’s true flame burned through Mo Yu’s bloodline as he let out an unyielding roar!
Fatty Wang’s chubby face tightened. His hands blurred into afterimages as countless runes were desperately struck into the Talisman Pagoda above his head!
Moo!
Lao Huang directly burned more than half of its vital essence and charged into the sky.
It did not seek to wound the enemy. It only sought to delay the descending claw for a moment—to buy Little Black time to turn back and give its little master that slim chance at survival!
“Boom!” “Clang!” “Dong!”
At the moment of life and death, a dragon soul’s roar, seemingly descending from the highest heavens, suddenly resounded within Xiao Ruobai’s body. The phantom of the Nine-Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd autonomously emerged to protect him, its dragon might shaking the heavens!
In Fang Hanyu’s hands, the ancient sword that had remained silent let out a clear ringing. A Primordial Sword Intent, born from the opening of primordial chaos and capable of annihilating all laws, shot into the sky!
Above Fatty Wang’s head, the phantom of an exquisite Talisman Pagoda appeared. Runes coiled around it, as though it bore the origin of the myriad Dao. The pagoda trembled, sending down billions of chains of divine laws!
The might of three Imperial Armaments erupted without reservation!
Combined with the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar being driven by Ling Xi, as well as the sharp radiance of the Heaven-Shattering Halberd that the Second Ancestor had already slashed into the Supreme’s back…
Five!
The power of five Ultimate Imperial Armaments erupted within this tiny space!
This was a spectacle never before seen throughout the ages!
Five imperial radiances of different colors—yet each representing the pinnacle of a Dao—intertwined, collided, and resonated.
They transformed into a destructive torrent that annihilated everything, surging back toward the Supreme!
“What?!”
“Five Imperial Armaments?!”
The Supreme who had forcibly taken the Heaven-Shattering Halberd’s blow and insisted on striking the killing blow shrank his pupils to pinpoints. For the first time, an almost absurd look of terror appeared on his face!
He had accounted for one defensive trump card, perhaps even two—but five Ultimate Imperial Armaments?!
This had completely exceeded the limits of his imagination!
And he was not the only one.
At that instant, the entire battlefield fell into a strange stagnation.
All the cultivators who had just been pulled back from the brink of death and were looking over with lingering fear froze in place.
Their eyes widened to the utmost as they stared at the region illuminated by the five-colored imperial radiance. Their minds went utterly blank.
“Five?!”
“Battle Asura, Sword in White, Ling Xi, and Fatty Wang each possess an Imperial Armament?!”
The voice of a mighty expert twisted out of shape, filled with incomprehensible shock.
“How… how is this possible?! Since when did Ultimate Imperial Armaments become so common?!”
The same absurd yet undeniable thought rose in the hearts of countless people at once.
Even the Supremes above the Ancient Bronze City—who had only just steadied themselves, their auras weakened—looked toward that five-colored radiance with unprecedented solemnity and wariness.
This could no longer be explained as mere hidden reserves.
Four disciples of the younger generation, fellow senior and junior brothers—and every one of them possessed an Imperial Armament!
At that moment, Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, Fatty Wang, and the others also stared in shock at the several awakened Imperial Armaments.
So the weapons their master had casually handed to them when they had first become his disciples were actually Ultimate Imperial Armaments!
On the side of the Ancient Demon Court, the gloom and scheming on Chi Huang’s face were completely shattered by the five sudden imperial radiances, replaced by utter astonishment.
The ancient demons behind him were even more as if their throats had been seized.
“Boom—!!!”
Under the silent, horrified gaze of the entire battlefield, the destructive torrent collided head-on with the Supreme’s ultimate strike, formed from his lifetime of cultivation!
There was no earth-shaking stalemate, no desperate tug-of-war.
Under the counterattack resonating with the seemingly world-opening power of the five Imperial Armaments, the Supreme’s killing move was torn apart, pierced through, and completely annihilated in an instant!
“No—!!!”
The Supreme had only enough time to release a brief, despairing roar before his protective divine light exploded like shattered porcelain.
His entire body was sent flying as if struck head-on by an Ancient Star, trailing a long streak of blood and fragments of shattered Dao laws behind him.
A deathly silence descended upon the world that had just witnessed the collision of Imperial Armaments.
The wind seemed to stop. All sound vanished. Even the dust and blood raining through the sky appeared to freeze in midair.
Every survivor—whether human, demon, or member of the Ancient Demon Court—stood like clay statues. Their mouths hung open, and they gasped for breath, yet not a single sound came out.
Their dazed gazes shifted back and forth between the gradually dimming five-colored radiance and the distant place where the Supreme had disappeared.
Had they won?
Using five Ultimate Imperial Armaments, had they blasted away a Forbidden Zone Supreme who had attacked with a desperate, all-out killing blow—in the most brute-force, unreasonable manner possible?
Only when the void rippled did a figure appear silently before Xiao Ruobai and the others.
The figure wore hempen robes and possessed an ordinary, unremarkable aura.
In his hand, he carried another Supreme whose body hung like that of a dead dog, his aura faint and feeble.
It was the Great Emperor of Annihilation.
When he sensed the disturbance in the Southern Region, he had rushed over at full speed. However, upon entering the Southern Region, he had unexpectedly encountered another Supreme blocking his path.
Only after heavily wounding that Supreme had he arrived here.
This sudden scene stirred another silent storm of shock across the deathly still battlefield!
“Another Great Emperor! When did he arrive?”
“The one he’s holding—is that another Supreme?!”
“My heavens! Just how many Great Emperors and Supremes have appeared today?!”
Those who had only just recovered slightly from the shock of the five Imperial Armaments were struck once again with overwhelming force.
Two contemporary Great Emperors standing side by side—such a scene was rarely seen throughout the ages!
The Great Emperor of Annihilation swept his gaze over Xiao Ruobai and the others, who had emerged unharmed, and gave an almost imperceptible nod. He then turned his indifferent gaze toward the sky above the Ancient Bronze City.
Little Black finally shattered the Supreme’s chains, which had been formed by transforming his very body into a lock. His golden wings folded, and he descended beside Xiao Ruobai.
His eyes swept coldly across the entire battlefield, still carrying a lingering killing intent.
The six Supreme figures who had appeared one after another had now gathered together and retreated to the sky above the Ancient Bronze City.
More or less, all of them bore injuries, and their auras fluctuated. The last one, who had entangled Little Black, was in especially poor condition.
Their gazes toward Xiao Ruobai and the others were filled with anger, apprehension, and dread.
They had exhausted every method at their disposal, even going so far as to trade injuries for a chance at death.
Yet they had still suffered complete defeat!
A deathly silence descended upon the heavens and earth—a silence born of surviving one calamity, only to be seized by an even greater terror.
Amid that suffocating stillness, the scenes that had unfolded in the blink of an eye finally struck the survivors like a delayed tsunami, violently shattering the defenses of their hearts!
Only now—
Did many of them suddenly realize an even more terrifying fact.
From the appearance of the first pitch-black hand to the retreat of the Six Supremes and the descent of two Great Emperors…
It had happened far too quickly!
This world-shaking upheaval that had swept across the Southern Region and overturned all understanding had lasted no more than three breaths from beginning to end!
It had truly been a killing ground with no escape!

From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
