Chapter 241 - 269: Mountain Soul Divine Power! Purple Rune! Crushed with One Palm
"His Cultivation isn't low."
Su Bai briefly sensed the man's Realm and nodded slightly.
The young man in the red robe was at the Ninth Tribulation Realm Ninth Layer. A pretty hefty experience monster.
"Damn it! I am from Ancestral Demon Mountain—"
The young man in the red robe had a deathly pale face. He struggled against Su Bai's terrifying pressure, roaring furiously.
In his desperation, he had intended to use the name of Ancestral Demon Mountain to make this Lord of Heavenly Punishment hesitate, hoping to save his own life.
But to his surprise, the latter merely nodded slightly and said, "You're from Ancestral Demon Mountain? I'll remember that."
The young man in the red robe: "???"
Hearing this, the young man in the red robe was stunned. Before he could speak again, Su Bai had already imprisoned him in the Dharma Tripod Prison.
After imprisoning the young man, Su Bai glanced at his information.
[Criminal: Chi Ming]
[Sin Level: Eight-Star]
[Strength: Ninth Tribulation Realm Ninth Layer]
[Status: Lightly Injured (Imprisoned)]
[Suppression Involvement: 90%]
[Reward: 2.4 million Experience Points/hour]
The Experience Points reward was pretty good.
A pleased expression appeared on Su Bai's face.
Then, he thought to himself.
'I should find a chance to visit Ancestral Demon Mountain in the future.'
This young man in the red robe was from Ancestral Demon Mountain and possessed a Cultivation at the Ninth Tribulation Realm Ninth Layer.
One could only imagine how many other Great Demons like him, or even stronger, must reside within Ancestral Demon Mountain.
If he suppressed them all, Su Bai was certain he would earn a handsome amount of Experience Points.
"You wretch! Die!"
Just then, the furious roar of the Golden Armor Divine General echoed from the distance.
His eyes were bloodshot with rage. Wrapped in surging waves of True Essence, he lunged at Su Bai.
"Mountain Soul!"
Reaching the space above the Immortal Ship, he let out a low roar.
Then, he swiftly formed a Dharma Seal.
In an instant, the world went dark.
BOOM—
An ethereal image of a towering mountain quietly materialized in the void.
It then merged into his body.
The Golden Armor Divine General's body grew more solid, his aura more powerful.
He became even more imposing.
Before the combatants below could even pause their battle to look over in shock...
RUMBLE!
A second mountain phantom abruptly appeared.
Followed by a third, a fourth...
These colossal peaks were varied—some towering, some majestic, some steep, some perilous.
One by one, the mountain phantoms appeared, and without exception, they all merged into the Divine General's body.
The Divine General's body shot up by three feet, his frame becoming abnormally muscular.
He seemed to grow taller inch by inch, his aura soaring with every moment!
When no less than a hundred mountain phantoms had all merged into his body,
The Golden Armor Divine General stood in the sky. His body, now nearly three meters tall, resembled a continuous range of Divine Mountains, casting half the sky into shadow.
He exuded an aura of immense power, weight, and grandeur.
As his gaze swept down, it felt as if invisible mountains were crashing down from the void. Nearly everyone his eyes passed over...
...felt a crushing weight on their hearts, as if a great mountain was pressing down. They struggled to breathe, their legs grew weak, and they felt an overwhelming urge to kneel.
An indescribable, terrifying pressure enveloped their Heart Spirits.
Only Su Bai remained unaffected. His expression was calm as he looked down at the Golden Armor Divine General, his eyes flickering slightly.
'Fusing a hundred Mountain Spirits into oneself... although the ones he fused were just ordinary mountains.'
'But it is indeed a fine Divine Technique.'
Su Bai couldn't help but praise it internally.
'If I were to combine this Divine Technique with my Immortal Golden Body, my Physique could become even more powerful.'
'A fine Divine Technique!'
'I'll take it!'
The light in Su Bai's eyes grew increasingly brilliant.
"Lowly native!"
Empowered by his Divine Technique, the Golden Armor Divine General hovered in the sky, gazing down at Su Bai with a detached air.
His voice had changed as well; when he spoke, it was like the rumbling of massive boulders.
"Die!"
As he uttered that single word, he reached for Su Bai!
The vision of everyone below instantly dimmed.
In a daze, they saw what seemed to be endless mountains rising from the ground, completely obscuring their sight.
Soaring into the clouds!
The oppressive weight on their Heart Spirits intensified to its absolute peak.
It felt as if their hearts were about to be crushed!
The Golden Armor Divine General's palm descended. It appeared slow, but in reality, it was incredibly fast.
The very power of the mountains and rivers between heaven and earth was channeled by his palm.
It wove into a dense, heavy net.
Layer upon layer, it rapidly converged.
Even the surrounding void was violently compressed. The power contained within his palm was staggering, reaching an unimaginable level.
Within a thousand-li radius, with Su Bai at its center...
With a sickening CRUNCH, the ground began to sink, foot by foot.
Such was its horrifying power before the palm had even landed.
At this very moment, in the eyes of the experts from both the righteous and Demon Dao paths...
Su Bai, facing the Golden Armor Divine General's palm strike head-on, seemed like a mortal at the foot of a mountain, watching helplessly as it came crashing down.
He seemed liable to be buried by the falling boulders at any second.
'Die! Just die! There's no way you can survive this!'
Within the Demon Sect, several elders who despised Su Bai had looks of glee on their faces. A Divine Light flashed in their eyes as they clenched their fists, eagerly anticipating the bloody spectacle that was about to unfold.
And just as everyone stared, wide-eyed and transfixed on the scene...
Suddenly, they saw...
Su Bai moved.
Standing amidst the clouds, facing the colossal mountain-like palm, Su Bai slowly raised his right hand.
A golden, amber-like liquid flowed between the bones of his right hand, rapidly circulating and coalescing.
In the blink of an eye, it erupted with a brilliant golden radiance, too dazzling to look at directly.
And the instant this golden radiance appeared,
An incomparably sharp Fist Intent erupted, shooting straight into the heavens!
It domineeringly tore apart and utterly shattered the overwhelming power of the mountains that the Golden Armor Divine General had summoned.
The Golden Armor Divine General's brow furrowed, a flicker of shock in his eyes.
But before he could react,
Su Bai, from below, slowly threw a punch.
"Golden Immortal Body."
Su Bai's eyes were clear and his expression serene as he looked at the Golden Armor Divine General and spoke softly.
The moment the words left his lips, a tidal wave of power erupted!
BOOM—
A golden Fist Seal, surging like the ocean, tore through the palm that wielded the power of mountains.
Countless roaring Golden Dragons swirled around it.
It also carried the aura of Thunder Tribulation, Demon Evil Qi, and utter destruction.
It blotted out the sky as it hurtled toward the Golden Armor Divine General!
At this moment.
The world fell silent!
It was as if time itself had frozen.
Then, everyone watched, wide-eyed.
In their eyes, this corner of the world was rapidly compressed, flattened as if it were a sheet of paper.
And this paper was torn asunder by the Fist Seal, everything upon its surface starting to disintegrate.
"Huuu."
Su Bai let out a slow breath and lowered his right hand.
The auras of destruction, Demon Evil Qi, and Thunder Tribulation that had filled the world vanished in an instant, gone without a trace as he retracted his fist.
Su Bai didn't spare the Golden Armor Divine General another glance, instead focusing inward to carefully contemplate the punch he had just delivered.
Just as everyone was staring in a daze,
Suddenly, their pupils contracted in unison!
They saw the Golden Armor Divine General, frozen in mid-air. A complex mix of expressions—confusion, disbelief, shock, and terror—played across his dazed face.
And then...
BOOM!
Like a collapsing mountain, his entire body crumbled with a thunderous roar, turning into countless pieces of rubble.
A brilliant golden Divine Spirit escaped from the crumbling body.
This Divine Spirit was clad in armor and wielded a sharp weapon, looking majestic and extraordinary. A small purple rune hovered above its head, casting down streams of Divine Light that sheltered the Divine Spirit.
But soon, cracks began to appear on the mysterious, ancient purple rune.
Then, with a BANG, it exploded!
Taking the Divine Spirit below with it, which also exploded into fragments!
But as the purple rune shattered, a powerful purple stream of Divine Thoughts suddenly surged forth!
"Who!?"
"Who dares kill my Dayu Divine General!"
Immediately after, the Divine Thoughts coalesced into a figure and glared fiercely at Su Bai.
It roared with anger and shock.
"Hm? A mere lowly native! How dare—"
Before he could finish, Su Bai shot him an indifferent glance.
Then, a giant hand descended.
It tore through the endless clouds.
And seized the figure directly.
Crushing it in an instant!
