The Nine Celestial Officials roared in unison, seemingly speaking as nine separate individuals, yet also appearing as one. Their aura shifted dramatically, their official robes billowed, their hair and beards flew, and they unleashed a violent, thunderous power.
"Thunder rises!"
The Nine Luminaries Immortal Official's tongue crackled like spring thunder.
boom!
The heavens and earth trembled violently, and the clouds collapsed in the vast sky. The nine top-grade immortal artifacts in their hands shone with dazzling immortal light, soaring into the sky and stirring up the wind and clouds.
The terrifying celestial light transformed into a vast and boundless sea of lightning in the sky. This terrifying scene not only horrified everyone present, but also made all living beings in the entire Flowing Cloud Immortal Dynasty feel it. They looked up at the sky in horror, feeling as if the end of the world had arrived.
They witnessed an incredible scene: lightning surged in the sky, displaying nine different colors, rendering the heavens with a breathtaking and magnificent light and shadow.
"Is this the power of the Nine Luminaries Celestial Official?" Everyone was shocked. Facing that heavenly might, they felt as insignificant as ants.
"Thunder Gathering!"
As the Nine Luminaries Celestial Official gave nine commands, a terrifying vortex appeared in the raging, boundless sea of dazzling lightning. The surrounding nine-colored lightning was continuously swallowed by the vortex, as if it were a mud ox sinking into the sea, and an invisible great terror was brewing.
The vortex swirled across the sky, slowly rotating like a bottomless abyss, eventually swallowing up the entire sea of lightning.
"Lightning strike!"
Rumble!
The nine-colored lightning disappeared, replaced by an incredibly thick black lightning bolt, like a pillar of heaven, exuding an aura of world destruction, which crashed down from the vortex and struck Fang Xiu directly.
The moment the black lightning struck, the void collapsed, and the sun and moon lost their light. In that instant, everyone present felt a sense of oppression and extreme horror.
The power of this Nine Luminaries Divine Thunder was extremely violent and terrifying.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, the Nine Luminaries Divine Lightning descended from the sky, while Fang Xiu, standing motionless at the center of the lightning, remained motionless in place.
Just when the Nine Luminaries Immortal Official thought he was doomed, a calm voice suddenly rang out from behind them.
"The move is good, but even the most powerful move is useless if it hits the target."
The Nine Luminaries Celestial Official was shocked and quickly turned around to look, only to see Fang Xiu standing calmly not far behind them.
The pupils of all nine of them suddenly contracted. "This... how is this possible?"
In their view, Fang Xiu should still be within the range of the Nine Luminaries Divine Thunder.
When they looked back at the arena, they saw that Fang Xiu, who had been standing in the center of the Nine Luminaries Divine Thunder, was slowly dissipating, like a dream or a bubble.
"What?! It's just an illusion!"
"Damn it, when will it happen?!"
Boom!
The Nine Luminaries Divine Lightning struck the empty ground. Even though the imperial palace was protected by an array, it was still pierced through to a depth of a hundred miles by this terrifying blow.
The Nine Luminaries Immortal Official also successfully performed a feat of missing his ultimate attack in front of everyone.
"This is impossible!" a celestial official roared in disbelief, staring intently at Fang Xiu, whose face remained calm. "To limit your speed, we specially activated the Nine Luminaries Locking Heaven Formation and then bombarded you with the Nine Luminaries Divine Thunder. How could you possibly escape the range of the Nine Luminaries Locking Heaven Formation?"
That's right, Fang Xiu opened it again.
Faced with the blockade of nine Immortal Emperors, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't escape the Nine Luminaries Locking Heaven Formation. After all, being fast and being able to pass through walls are two different things.
So he opened it.
With the boost of nine times speed, when I reached the edge of the Nine Luminaries Locking Heaven Array, I briefly activated the wall-penetrating effect, and then immediately deactivated it after passing through.
Of course, it's definitely not accurate to say it that way.
Fang Xiu calmly said, "Because I made eye contact with him, he has already fallen into demonic possession and secretly opened an opening in the Nine Luminaries Locking Heaven Formation for me."
He casually pointed to the high-ranking immortal official holding the sword.
The sword-wielding celestial official flew into a rage: "You scoundrel, stop spouting nonsense!"
Whether we go astray or not is none of your business; do you think we don't know?
As the saying goes, only those who frame you truly know how wronged you are.
"Don't believe me? Then I'll show you."
Whoosh!
Fang Xiu's figure vanished from the spot. To be precise, he didn't vanish into thin air, but rather his speed was too fast. He already had a profound foundation, and his speed far exceeded that of ordinary True Immortals. Now that he had activated nine times the speed, even Immortal Emperors would have difficulty seeing his figure.
The Nine Luminaries Celestial Official was shocked and frantically scanned his surroundings. But even with all his might, he could only catch a faint afterimage. It was just like trying to catch a mosquito. He was concentrating on locking onto the mosquito, but as soon as the mosquito turned a corner, he immediately lost sight of it.
"Defend with all your might! He's just fast; he might not be able to break through the defenses of a Celestial Emperor!" shouted the celestial official holding the pagoda.
Therefore, the Nine Luminaries Immortal Officials all summoned defensive immortal artifacts to protect themselves from Fang Xiu's sneak attack.
However, the next second, Fang Xiu's calm voice suddenly rang out from behind the celestial official holding the sword: "Fate's backlash."
Before the celestial official could even react, he felt a mysterious and unpredictable forbidden power pass through his protective celestial artifact without any hindrance and land directly on him.
The power of fate is mysterious and profound, and cannot be defended against by ordinary immortal artifacts.
It acts directly on one's destiny; those whose destiny is not strong enough are powerless to resist it.
Clearly, the celestial official wielding the sword was not strong enough. In just an instant, a scream rang out, and countless deep, bone-revealing cracks appeared on his body.
It's possible that his destiny wasn't strong enough. As a powerful Immortal Emperor and one of the Nine Luminaries Immortal Officials, holding a high position in the Flowing Cloud Immortal Dynasty, his destiny already surpasses that of an ordinary Immortal Emperor. However, he is now powerless to resist the backlash of fate. It is highly likely that he has already transformed into a human-demon, and his original destiny has been destroyed.
Having landed a successful blow, Fang Xiu's figure disappeared once again.
"Second Brother!"
"Second brother, are you alright?"
The other Nine Luminaries Celestial Officials rushed to the rescue, continuously channeling power into the celestial official wielding the sword in an attempt to stabilize the cracks on his body. However, the power of destiny was clearly not on the same level as theirs, and no matter how hard they tried, it was to no avail.
"Ah!" The celestial official holding the sword suddenly screamed in agony. An extremely evil aura could no longer be suppressed and burst out from his body. At the same time, from the countless cracks on his body, scarlet tentacles emerged at a visible speed, covered with dense, tiny suckers.
The scarlet tentacles seemed to defy gravity, standing upright and wriggling, rubbing against each other and splattering with slime, accompanied by a sizzling sound.
"A demon! A fiend! He is a fiend! There is actually a fiend among the Nine Luminaries Celestial Officials!" someone exclaimed in horror.
Fang Xiu appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the crowd and said calmly, "Shh, don't talk nonsense. It was clearly me who looked at him that caused him to turn into a demon."
"That's right, it's him! My second brother became a demon because of Zhou Qingfeng!" the celestial official with the knife shouted.
However, the more he said this, the more suspicious everyone felt.
If Zhou Qingfeng can make anyone he looks at fall into demonic possession, then wouldn't everyone present be a demon?
Fang Xiu nodded, agreeing with the words of the sword-wielding immortal official: "That's right, I did it. I saw all of you just now, so you've all fallen into demonic possession now."
