The King of Black Fog

"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

Chapter 579 The Vines of Life

The temple was so large that the sun could be hung on the roof as a chandelier, but its size and distance meant it was only a step away for everyone.

One second they were inside the temple, the next they were standing at the exit of the fourth temple.

This place is like a cliff, with a vast sea of ​​stars at the bottom, which may be the human universe where Earth is located.

Li Changzhou looked towards the Fifth Temple in the distance, where a vine as thick as a wrist was spreading out from the Fourth Temple beneath his feet.

The celestial beings were not in a hurry to act.

The vine has only one root, which begins to branch after it grows to a certain extent. Eventually, it becomes dense and numerous, like a grapevine that blocks out the starry sky, spanning between the Fourth and Fifth Temples.

The two halls are 72 light-years apart. Such large vines could be used to make giant nets to catch stars in the Milky Way.

The group continued to use clones to probe.

The clone leaps up, shrinks in mid-air, falls into the roots of the vine, and is forcibly sucked in as it passes through the leaves.

A burst of divine light rose from the leaf, revealing a planet covered in volcanoes, within which crawling fire dragons dwelled.

"What is this?" Everyone asked in surprise.

Above this planet, there was a live broadcast of the Holy Road.

"Are these leaves the life-bearing planets of our time?"

"Not necessarily, it might just be a teleportation array to the present world."

The clone that entered it tried to leave, but couldn't.

Finally, the battle raged until the heavens and earth trembled, and the fire dragons all fled back to the volcano, allowing the clones to break free of gravity and burst out of the leaves.

"Are they going to attack one leaf after another?" the celestial beings speculated.

People throughout the universe held their breath instantly.

"No way!!"

"We're clearly watching a play, so why are we being used as a stage?!"

"Watching a show? Do you have some misunderstanding about the Holy Path? Those strong people are vying for the position of 'victor.' Whoever wins can decide everything, including our life and death—we are not watching a show, but are prizes on the prize table, cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered."

"Run! Get off this inhabited planet!"

"We're doomed, we can't get out! The view from the sky has blocked us out!"

"The image has changed, what is this?"

"Someone's trying to break out!"

The scene above all the life-bearing planets in the universe suddenly changed; it was no longer a temple, but a life-bearing planet.

The stars are vast and boundless, far exceeding the size of ordinary planets.

The mountains in the scene suddenly roared up, as if they had been ripped open, and flew hundreds of thousands of miles before crashing to the ground, billowing smoke and dust that almost burst into the atmosphere.

An elderly man slowly sat up in the same spot.

With each breath he took, the entire galaxy trembled, and endless radiant energy surged forth like a waterfall, only to be absorbed by him.

Some stars dimmed and went out permanently; those were originally stars!

After absorbing enough energy, the old man soared into the sky, causing ripples in the scene that blocked his path.

"Heaven-Opening Fist!" The old man's white hair flew wildly as he swung his incomparably powerful fists, advancing through the ripples.

The stars in the Milky Way trembled, and a wisp of fist wind was thrown out, reaching beyond the heavens and directly annihilating a nearby satellite the size of Earth.

This power was weakened countless times by the ripples in the image; if it were directly blasted into a galaxy, it could annihilate an entire universe.

"The Ancestor Who Created Heaven!"

"Wasn't he supposed to have vanished long ago? Turns out he's still alive!"

"Eight times the will of Heaven!" exclaimed the Heavenly Realm experts who remained in the Third and Fourth Holy Cities.

In the present world, those with exceptional talent are limited to the seventh or eighth Heavenly Will. The Creator Ancestor, who has achieved the eighth Heavenly Will, is stronger than most Heavenly Positions on the Holy Path!

The ripples were shattered, and all living beings were filled with despair.

"We barely managed to break through after eight attempts by fate; are we just waiting to die?!"

"Ancestor, save us!" The creatures of Kaitian Star tried to catch up with the Ancestor Kaitian, but were slapped back to the surface of the star by the ripples.

However, the Creator did not leave; he entered the scene and arrived at the Fourth Holy Temple.

He suddenly appeared in front of nearly ten thousand powerful figures.

The Ancestor of Creation trembled all over, and a chill ran through him.

One of the Celestials glanced at it and then reached out and grabbed it.

The Ancestor of Creation turned and fled, rushing towards the vines. He was very fast, but he was still crushed in mid-air.

His body had been shrunk by the vines, and when he died, it was no different from a mosquito being swatted.

“That's enough.” You Tianwei frowned. “At least leave one alive to ask about the situation. If not, you can use him for experiments to explore the way.”

"Could it be that he was too weak and couldn't control his strength, so he had no choice but to kill him?" someone with a celestial position teased maliciously.

"Whether it's weak or strong, you can try it yourself." The one who made the move showed no weakness.

The entire universe was silent.

It has been almost eight years since the Holy City opened, and through the screen, people have gradually forgotten the power of the people in the video.

The Ancestor of Creation rushed into the scene and was crushed like a mosquito. Only then did they suddenly realize how terrifying these powerful beings were.

If holy war were to take place in the modern world, most civilizations would probably already be fleeing and in exile.

Now, the test leading to the Fifth Holy Temple is actually going to put these powerful individuals who have been killing in the sea of ​​blood for eight years into the present universe and into the planet of life!

"It's over," someone said in despair.

"All citizens, proceed immediately to the shelters!"

"Cultivators, assemble! Prepare to work together to activate the Heavenly Artifact!"

The Earth was also in chaos.

Aferona quickly issued an order: if any powerful beings descended upon the six stars, they should try to stall for time, and she would go to provide support.

"Can twenty demon gods with the power of the fifth Heavenly Will really stop one with the power of the ninth Heavenly Will?" Aferona murmured, her heart filled with intense unease.

Even the celestial artifacts left behind by Li Changzhou won't work.
