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

The raging water surrounding it could not even fill the heated space – any water rushing in would rapidly evaporate, causing the position in the middle of the river to transform into a small, waterless abyss.

Upon Mingquan Turtle Minister’s body, all signs of life, divine senses and spirit, all waves of spirit souls had been utterly severed, even the constantly circulating Elemental Qi dissipated into nothingness under the sweep of Zhuming Chengye.

In the seemingly colossal body, all the flesh and blood had been entirely incinerated, leaving behind only the sturdy scale armor and the ferocious, huge turtle shell.

In front of Mingquan Turtle Minister, the golden Dragon Palace Edict still shone with golden light, but compared to its previous dazzling brilliance, which dominated River Ji, the Dragon Palace Edict seemed to be much dimmer now.

This Imperial Edict that governed the water territories from River Ji’s Dragon Palace was on the verge of collapse under the strike of Zhuming Chengye’s sword, a union of the sword and Elemental Qi.

This was unlike the Great Sun’s True Flaming Sword in the Yunfu Mountains. Back then, he was in the depths of Yunfu Mountains, and although the illusion was watched by the demons, no one could experience the might of the Great Sun’s True Flames firsthand.

Although the Great Sun’s True Flaming Sword was stronger, the impact could only be exerted within the Yunfu Mountains.

But at this moment, the strike Shen Yuan unleashed under everyone’s watchful eyes in the Philosophical Debate Conference was quite different.

He altered day and night, killing the Great Demon, which was enhanced by the power of River Ji’s water, with one sword strike. This astounding strike deeply shocked everyone.

It was a strike that transcended the rules of the world; it was a strike that surpassed the constraints of this world.

“Did Mingquan Turtle Minister just die like that?”

“This is a Great Demon who made a name for itself in River Ji’s water region three thousand years ago!”

“Even the Dragon Palace Edict of River Ji’s Dragon Palace couldn’t protect Mingquan Turtle Minister on this River Ji. How strong is that strike?”

“This is absolutely not a level that this world can achieve. To unleash such a powerful strike must have required bearing the backlash of the world’s rules!”

“Who is the master of that immortal?”

On the platform, the advent of the radiant Great Sun melted the unchanging ancient glacier, and the six Heaven Chosen at the Qi Training Stage, who had been frozen by the Innate Great Qi Capture, struggled to free themselves.

Though their vitality was frozen by the Cold Age of Heaven, they could still sense the events taking place outside.

Sunn Lanyu’s control over the green flood dragon infuriated them, Mingquan Turtle Minister’s appearance terrified them, and the final strike delivered left them deeply shocked.

Especially the two Esteemed Emissaries of the Four Great Esteemed Emissaries of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, the White Tiger and Xuanwu, looked at each other in dismay.

As the esteemed emissaries of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, they are one man under a thousand. The information they know far exceeds the ordinary members of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.

They were not clear about the detailed information about the Supreme Taoist, but they had a vague idea that a being feared by the entire Great Xia’s Imperial Court was walking in the world.

That strike was too transcendent and too stunning, its momentum was like a radiant Great Sun, reminding them of the Great Sun that appeared in the Yunfu Mountains.

Suddenly, the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary remembered the superintendent of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau asking him to pass a message in Yunfu street.

He just delivered the message and wasn’t clear about the information about the coffin under the Taiyin Jade Pillar and the Storage Ring.

But the connection between Gong Buyu and Rongcheng’s Fine Jade Grotto Heavens, as well as his mysterious master, seemed to have something to do with what happened in Yunfu street.

“Could it be that person also came to this Philosophical Debate Conference? And is Gong Buyu’s master?”

This thought suddenly flashed through the mind of the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary, and everything seemed to gradually become clear.

Thinking of this, the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary felt a tremble in his heart, and his face turned pale.

That being was given utmost importance by both the superintendent of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau and Emperor Xia, any matter involving that being was of the highest priority within the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.

When he thought about how he had fought with that person’s disciple and was even planning to kill him using a spirit treasure during the process, the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary felt a chill running down his spine.

Although he is a high-ranking official of the Imperial Court as one of the Four Great Esteemed Emissaries of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, not long ago, the Taichang, who was the head of the Nine Ministers, and a prince who had the prospect of competing for the throne, had been executed because of a rumor involving that important person.

Those two were much more important than he was, but they were executed simply because the rumors somehow involved that big shot. The White Tiger Esteemed Emissary did not think he could be an exception.

The White Tiger Esteemed Emissary was in mental turmoil, and he even felt somewhat relieved that he had not defeated Gong Buyu, nor had he provoked or said anything out of line.

Compared to the fluttery thoughts in the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary’s mind, the other four Heaven Chosen from the Four Great Grotto Heavens and the Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary calmed down a lot.

Having tidied up their embarrassed appearances, they all simultaneously bowed towards the Darkness-Light Sword that was suspended high above in the sky.

“Thank you for your help, Senior!”

Except for Mo Li from Mount Laojun, the other four didn’t know the identity of Gong Buyu’s master, they were just astonished by the great power of the sword.

While Mo Li had already known that the Supreme Taoist was here, compared to the Supreme Taoist’s identity and status, the power of the sword itself and the changes in celestial phenomena were secondary to him.

He believed that for the Supreme Taoist, the strength of eliminating a Spirit Transmutation Great Demon was a piece of cake and the backlash from the world’s rules to the Supreme Taoist was no harm at all.
