Chapter 2278: The Monarchs Give In, Heaven Trembling Tempest, Cosmic Crumbling Yin Yang Strike
Atop the five-colored divine mountain stood a proud, peerless, immortal figure.
Dazzling and extraordinary Immortal Sparks swirled around her. She emanated a domineering and iron-willed aura that shocked the other Monarchs.
The clouds in the skies rolled, the land trembled, and the spiritual qi in the void stirred.
It was all because of the person in front of them, who had appeared out of nowhere!
"The Tempest King!"
Upon seeing the Tempest King, the Purple Lightning Master, Granny Snowflower, and others gasped. Their bodies trembled as they looked at her.
"She has come to the Great Hongmeng Universe!"
"It looks like things are getting troublesome now."
As the undisputed overlord of the previous era, the Tempest King's power was intimidating and extraordinary. Especially after a clone of hers killed a Monarch and proved her powers, it was no surprise that the Monarchs were fearful of her.
The crowd fell into an uproar following the Tempest King's arrival!
Many people looked at her with frenzied admiration.
"So she's the Tempest King, the unparalleled ruler of the previous era!"
"What a powerful aura she has."
"Check it out. The other Monarchs don't dare to speak now."
"By the heavens. To think that her mere presence had frightened the other Monarchs so much that they turned silent. Is this the Monarch that reigned supreme during the previous era? She's simply too powerful."
Everyone expressed how shocked they were.
Meanwhile, the Tempest King looked at the Purple Lightning Master, Granny Snowflower, and others and said indifferently, "Since when has the Human Ancestral Land become a place under the control of you people?"
The Purple Lightning Master and others stayed silent.
Putting it in another way, they dared not face the Tempest King's majestic aura.
They were afraid that if they replied poorly, they would bring about an end to their lives.
After all, the Tempest King was well-known for her iron-willed approach and tactics.
"It's been a while, Tempest King. How have you been?"
Amongst everyone present, only the Divine Sword Palace Ruler dared to speak.
Since the Manifa Destiny Sect Leader and Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader were not there, the Divine Sword Palace Ruler was the most powerful Monarch present.
"Cut the crap, old man. Do you think we're friends?" the Tempest King asked coldly, showing no respect to the Divine Sword Palace Ruler.
"Tempest King, you..."
The Divine Sword Palace Ruler's expression sank.
"You have something to say?" the Tempest King uttered sternly.
Then, she raised her hand, gathering the spiritual qi within countless kilometers into her palm and unleashing it fiercely.
That attack was just a simple energy blast, but it contained the Tempest King's Daoist law energy.
However, the Divine Sword Palace Ruler's eyes widened at the attack. A sword instantly appeared in his hand, and without hesitation, he yelled, unleashing the powerful Sword Twenty-three!
"Boom!"
When the sword qi and spiritual qi collided, the sword qi was dispersed.
It allowed the brutal spiritual qi to land on the Divine Sword Palace Ruler's body, sending him flying with his blood splattering across the skies!
The sight of that stunned the crowd even more.
A Sword Dao Monarch's supreme technique was no match for a casual attack from the Tempest King.
Her strength was simply too overpowering!
"I'll ask once more. Since when has the Human Ancestral Land become a place under your control?" the Tempest King asked.
With that, the surrounding weather changed, and layers of frost soon covered the surrounding terrain.
It snowed heavily, and the cold was freezing.
The wind carried an icy and piercing killing intent that cut to the bone.
The world seemed to have changed because of the Monarch's rage.
It was the true power of a top-level Monarch!
"The Human Ancestral Land belongs to all humans. It can't be occupied by anyone or any force," the Manifa Destiny Sect Leader said calmly.
"Well said. The Human Ancestral Land should belong to all humans. Since that's the case, what right do all of you have to stop my Honorable Teacher from entering?" the Tempest King asked.
"Chu Kuangren is allowed to enter."
After staying silent for a while, the Manifa Destiny Sect Leader spoke.
It was no surprise that he had given in.
After all, he did not wish to create conflict with the Tempest King right now.
Hence, he could only allow Chu Kuangren to enter.
"Since the Tempest King has spoken, I shall grant your request and allow Chu Kuangren to enter." The Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader also relented.
Everyone else was amazed.
The fact that two of the three most powerful Human Sanctuaries' leaders were forced to give in to the Tempest King showed how much they feared her.
"It's only natural that my Honorable Teacher is allowed to enter the Human Ancestral Land. However, do you think you can pretend that the attempts you made earlier to stop him never happened?"
The Tempest King appeared very calm and composed.
However, the Daoist law energy inside her was surging violently. Ordinary cultivators may not be able to sense it, but the other Monarchs could, and they could feel their hearts racing.
"What are you doing, Tempest King?" The Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader could not help but feel anxious.
"That's simple. I want you to take my palm attack!"
Right after that, the Tempest King leaped into the skies above.
The Immortal Sparks around her illuminated brightly, and as if her body was a gigantic black hole, endless spiritual qi headed toward her.
As she raised her hand, a gigantic energy ball of light formed in her palm.
The Tempest energy contained within it was terrifying.
"Heaven Trembling Tempest!"
Following a soft cry, the Tempest King thrust her palm forth, launching the giant energy ball of light into the sky!
It was locked onto the... Heavenly Human Sanctuary far away!
However, that was not the end of it.
The Tempest King gathered energy in her palm and unleashed another palm attack.
This time, strands of Yin-yang Daoist law energy surrounded her with brilliant lights before transforming into palm strength resembling a black and white energy torrent, heading toward the distance!
"Cosmic Crumbling Yin Yang Strike!"
That attack was launched toward the Manifa Destiny Sect!
Two powerful palm strikes were unleashed toward two different locations. The attacks crossed dozens of domains, heading fiercely toward the two Humanity Sanctuaries.
In the Heavenly Human Sanctuary, an elderly man with an ethereal and dignified demeanor suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a look of horror. That person was the Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader.
"Oh no!"
The Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader yelled and quickly leaped into the sky.
Just as he was about to take action, the entire Heavenly Human Sanctuary was surrounded by a dense aura. Strong winds began to blow in every direction as Tempest energy wreaked havoc across the land. Soon, the terrifying palm strike arrived in the skies above.
Despite crossing countless great domains, the power of that palm strike did not diminish.
On the contrary, as the palm strike traveled across the sky, it automatically devoured and absorbed large amounts of Tempest energy wherever it passed. That made it even more powerful than when the Tempest King launched it!
With the entire Heavenly Human Sanctuary enveloped by the palm attack, the land trembled. Countless cultivators watched in horror as the palm strike crashed down from the sky.
"What a terrifying palm attack!"
Even the Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader could not help but gulp at it.
He yelled and channeled his power to the maximum, summoning the full power of the surroundings and activating his Great Daoist law energy to unleash his ultimate technique.
"Heavenly Human Art, Eight Trigrams Defense!"
"Boom!"
A gigantic Yin-yang symbol appeared and shielded the entire Heavenly Human Sanctuary.
When the Yin Yang symbol collided with the Tempest energy, the land where the Heavenly Human Sanctuary stood sank dozens of meters into the ground. Enormous cracks spread everywhere like a spider's web, forming gigantic rifts throughout the terrain.
Following a huge explosion, surges of Tempest energy spread everywhere.
Anyone who was caught up in it, even if they were a Grand Dao cultivator, was killed.
Amidst a bundle of dazzling Immortal Sparks, a figure fell from the sky and crashed into hundreds of mountains.
That person was the Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader. In his efforts to block the palm attack, he attacked with all his strength but was still critically injured. The Monarch's Heart inside his body was damaged by thirty percent, and he was coughing up blood. He appeared to be in a sorry state.
"What a horrifying palm attack! The Tempest King is truly terrifying!" the Heavenly Human Sanctuary Leader uttered in shock.
Compared to the previous era, she had become much more terrifying.
