Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence - Chapter 437

Chapter 437: Chapter 197: The Great Killing Technique_2

There was an Immortal who only lasted twenty-one days before being cursed to death, their spirit shattered and their path ended.

Although this curse is far inferior to the Great Divine Power of Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman, it shares some similar characteristics, and there may not be a lack of connection between the two.

“Perhaps it is because of this cause and effect connection that I have acquired the Great Divine Power of Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman?”

Shen Yuan’s eyes shined brighter with stars, and a vague intuition told him that he was nearing the truth.

At that moment, it was as if an ancient divine mountain had plummeted from the firmament above, violently shaking Fengdu City.

The order reversed, rules went into disarray, as if the entire world was capsizing at this moment.

Shen Yuan immediately gathered his spirits and looked outside the Emperor’s Carriage.

From the arrival of the Samsara King to Shen Yuan acquiring the Great Divine Power of Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman, and then to this earth-shattering seismic tremor, the intervening time seemed long, but had lasted less than a brief three breaths.

Through the protection of the Emperor’s Carriage, Shen Yuan finally saw the source of the earth-shaking tremors – it was merely one foot of the Samsara King stepping from the Void Channel into Fengdu City.

That seemingly careless step had directly caused the entire Fengdu City, which had been gradually returning to the order of Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities, to collapse once again.

Shen Yuan’s attempt to gather the Divinity Path network to construct the Mount Tai Phantom, with the intention of channeling a wisp of the Fengdu Emperor’s aura, also shattered violently at that moment.

This had nothing to do with one’s pantheon seat or Divinity Path ranking – it was simply the purest form of strength suppression.

As Yama incarnate in the flesh, even if the Samsara King’s cultivation was limited to the Void Refining Stage, his Divinity Path Cultivation, his vision, and his control over the Dao were all at the realm of Major Heavenly Immortal.

Having reached the pinnacle of Major Heavenly Immortal for countless years, he had perfected every aspect, a gap that cannot be simply explained by the realm alone.

Moreover, the realm the Samsara King displayed already surpassed the limits of this world. Among all the present split souls of Yama and the supernatural beings of Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities, none could be compared with the Samsara King.

As one foot stepped out of the Void Channel, dark purple thunderbolts streaked across the sky of the Primal Chaos Realm, and a pair of cold eyes made from the rules gazed down upon the people from the vast sea of lightning, watching Yama who had crossed dimensions.

Above the Ninth Heavens, in the outermost domain of the Primal Chaos Realm, a bronze cauldron large enough to envelop the world appeared within the sea of clouds, revealing a mottled corner.

Merely seeing this one corner, the weighty essence of the world seemed to be on the verge of collapsing the entire Yin World.

This was the resistance from the rules of the Primal Chaos Realm; this was the counteraction from humanity fate.

The Samsara King completely ignored those cold eyes of rules and looked towards the bronze cauldron with a frightened gaze.

Even as Yama incarnate, the Samsara King realized he still couldn’t peer into the might of the Great Schism’s humanity’s divine instrument.

If they allowed that divine instrument of humanity to descend, even his true form would be easily crushed.

The Samsara King, who had only one foot in the Primal Chaos Realm, quickly reached his hand into the void, and soon after, a bright yellow scroll appeared in his hand.

The Samsara King, holding the bright yellow scroll, exclaimed,

“The Human Emperor’s Imperial Token declares that Fengdu City is a city of the Primal Chaos Realm, as well as a part of the kingdom of Hell.

I have crossed over to preside within Fengdu City, and as long as I do not leave Fengdu City, it does not count as a violation of the Great Schism’s decree!”

As he spoke, the bright yellow scroll transformed into a stream of light that rose to the firmament, and the aura of the bronze cauldron hidden within the sea of clouds stilled.

After a moment, the sea of clouds covered the sky once again, engulfing the humanity’s divine instrument and making it fade away once more.

Above the firmament, nothing remained but the vast sea of lightning and the cold eyes of rules.

The Samsara King let out a sigh of relief; he attached great importance to the humanity’s divine instrument, but he scarcely deigned to give a single glance to those manifest eyes of rules.

His cultivation had already been suppressed to the Void Refining Stage by the Karmic Mirror, a Netherworld Treasure of Qinguang King. As long as he did not stray from the Yin World, neither the pressuring rules of the Primal Chaos Realm nor their cosmic backlash could shake a true incarnation of Yama.

The gaze of the Samsara King, with one foot stepping out from the Void Channel, was like a beacon as he focused on the luxuriant black-gold Emperor’s Carriage.

The deity of Mount Luofeng 6 Hell had already abandoned the fight with the various Yamas and were now all guarding before the Emperor’s Carriage, watching with grave eyes the Samsara King about to descend upon the mortal plane.

“Truly…”

The voice of the Samsara King, filled with authority, echoed through the cosmos, as a hand slowly began to solidify from within the Void Channel and pressed down upon the entire Fengdu City.

The hand expanded rapidly, becoming the size of a realm in the blink of an eye.

Between the grooves and ridges of that palm, it seemed as if many cities of dark Hell housed countless lost souls, where the alternation of life and death cycles unfolded. At the center of the palm, the lines faintly revealed the pattern of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Bull Head let out a stern shout, as the pantheon seat of Zhoujue Yin Heavenly Palace was brought to its ultimate manifestation. Holding the shackles that symbolized the order of the Netherworld, he connected the entirety of Fengdu City, turning it into a heavenly and earthly prison to confront the Samsara King.

However, that palm only paused for an almost imperceptible moment, as the prison of heaven and earth collapsed, a crack almost cleaving through the entire Fengdu City.

Bull Head’s divine body was brutally smashed deep into the earth, the endless light of battle in his eyes nearly extinguished.

“Weak.”

The massive palm continued to descend, while Black and White Impermanence, holding the Reincarnation Register and After Death Brush, stood before the Emperor’s Carriage, the two authority treasures merging at this moment, seemingly shaping into a colossal Six Paths of Reincarnation.

But at just a touch, the Six Paths of Reincarnation within the center of that palm easily devoured them, and just like Bull Head, Black and White Impermanence were smashed deep into the earth.

“Ridiculous.”

Leopard Tail, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird, the last three gods of the Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities, met the giant hand with fearlessness. Leopard Tail manifested the Netherworld domain in an attempt to counter with force, while White Tiger and Vermilion Bird invoked the authority of their pantheon seat to connect with the Yang World.

But under that giant hand, every effort was futile.

The Netherworld domain was easily suppressed by the hand, and had the Samsara King not needed Fengdu City to accommodate himself and to avoid the attention of powerful human divine weapons, the Netherworld domain could have been easily destroyed as well.

The three gods of the Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities once again fell, that one giant palm pressing heavily down upon Fengdu City.

Within the city, temples of supernatural beings, the legal domain of the City God, and the Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities were all suppressed by that one palm.

Then, the indifferent voice finally arose from the Void Channel once more.

“The struggles are laughably futile.”

As one hand and one foot left the Void Channel, half of the Samsara King’s body gradually appeared between heaven and earth.

One foot shattered Divinity Path Mount Tai, and one hand suppressed Mount Luofeng 6 Hell Deities gods; its aura had climbed to its peak.

Even the Divinity Path Emperor’s incorporeal persona of the Fengdu Emperor was suppressed under the might of Yama.

Witnessing this scene, the Samsara King finally affirmed the words spoken by Qinguang King.

Inside the Emperor’s Carriage, the Fengdu Emperor indeed showed signs of anomaly, and the realm he manifested was restricted to the Spirit Transmutation Stage, a limitation of the present world.

Facing the Samsara King who had arrived at the realm of Void Refining True Monarch, he simply had no way to contend.

His confidence greatly increased, the Samsara King looked down at the Divinity Path Emperor within the Emperor’s Carriage, and even his heart, conditioned by countless calamities, could not resist a sense of joy.

One should know that the individual within the Emperor’s Carriage was none other than the Divinity Path Emperor. When at his peak, even the pantheon seat of a mere Yama was not worthy of valeting for him.

Yet now, he could suppress a deity subject to Fengdu Emperor with one hand and oversee a Divinity Path Emperor. How many throughout the various realms could achieve what he had?

The smile at the corner of his mouth grew colder, and the Samsara King’s colossal head emerged from the Void Channel, gazing down upon the Emperor’s Carriage with a lofty attitude.

“Fengdu Emperor? How disappointing!”

Meanwhile, inside the Emperor’s Carriage, Shen Yuan had already risen from his seat upon the Mount Tai King’s throne.

With starlight swirling in his eyes, Shen Yuan grasped that single thread of causality that could smelt the spirit soul of the Samsara King, allowing that thread of fate to transform into strands of straw in his hands.

The straw flew between his fingers and gradually took the form of a straw man, wearing official robes and a square crown. On its forehead, the words “Samsara” were clearly visible.

As the straw man was completed, Shen Yuan lightly waved Zhuming Chengye and Year End Freezing Weather together, forming the Sun-Moon lamp. One was placed above the straw man’s head, and the other at the straw man’s feet.

Shen Yuan’s steps channeled stellar conjunctions, with talismans binding and seals burning away. The Divine Capacity Seed of the Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman responded to the straw man before him.

Shen Yuan had now driven the incomplete pantheon seat of the Fengdu Emperor to its limit. His garments changed into black and gold heavenly emperor robes, his head adorned with the pearl-veil Crown representing the thirty-six skies, as an Emperor descended to the mortal plane.

Embodying the position of the Fengdu Emperor, Shen Yuan deeply bowed to the straw man.

Inside the Emperor’s Carriage, a breeze arose from nowhere, causing the flames of the Sun-Moon lamp above and below the straw man to flicker, nearly extinguished.

Within the Void Channel, as half of the Samsara King’s body descended into Fengdu City, he inexplicably felt a momentary pause in his body, followed by a boundless terror flooding his heart.
