Chapter 813: Chapter 813: One Strike of the Pangu Axe

"Sister, I was so scared just now!" Tian Ling\'er said to Bao\'er.

The officials were speechless. The empress was scared? What about the old guy who was turned into ashes?

"It\'s okay, it\'s okay," Bao\'er comforted Tian Ling\'er.

This dramatic turn of events at the Lingxiao Heavenly Court also caught the attention of those on the distant battlefield.

Kong Xuan\'s pupils contracted as he looked towards the Lingxiao Heavenly Court, then his gaze shifted anxiously to Zhong Shan\'s shadow body.

"People from the Great Thousand World? You can actually collude with people from the Great Thousand World? No wonder, no wonder!" Kong Xuan\'s eyes grew more serious and cautious.

Zhong Shan\'s shadow body glanced towards the Lingxiao Heavenly Court, his eyes narrowing slightly, feeling a bit of lingering fear. Tian Chenzi, that old guy wasn\'t killed by Ying? That was close!

"Which body is the real one? The one that borrows the power of the Great Zheng, what about this body? Can it still open that great reincarnation passage?" Kong Xuan probed coldly.

"Didn\'t you know that I can borrow the power of the Great Zheng in both the mortal and the netherworld?" the shadow body replied fearlessly.

Kong Xuan\'s pupils contracted.

"That old injury from the \'Great Derivation Life Reduction Art\' hasn\'t healed, has it? Even after devouring the Yellow Springs Road, you can\'t be fully recovered, right?" the shadow body smirked.

"I can crush you like an ant!" Kong Xuan snorted coldly.

"Really? We are both smart people. You know you can\'t kill me. If you don\'t believe me, why not leave here and let your eighteen-armed golden Dharma body fight my other body?" the shadow body suggested with a smile.

Zhong Shan\'s shadow body understood Kong Xuan\'s hesitation. The \'Great Derivation Life Reduction Art\' from Zhong Xuan had left a significant psychological shadow on Kong Xuan. Coupled with the sudden appearance of the three mighty beings from the Great Thousand World, Kong Xuan now found Zhong Shan unfathomable.

Kong Xuan had immense confidence in his eighteen-armed golden Dharma body, but this shadow body, capable of opening the reincarnation passage and borrowing the power of the netherworld, was something else entirely. The uncertainty and the intricate schemes of a destiny manipulator were enough to make Kong Xuan wary.

"Let\'s go!"

Kong Xuan and the shadow body disappeared instantly, heading west.

The eighteen-armed golden Dharma body now faced Zhong Shan\'s main body.

The battle with Kong Lietian was merely the beginning. The real fight was just starting.

Kong Xuan\'s golden Dharma body, Zhong Shan didn\'t dare to be careless. This Dharma body, created by Sage Zhunti, possessed unparalleled power. Each of its eighteen arms represented an extreme force.

At this moment, Zhong Shan couldn\'t use any magical treasures, not the Fangtian Seal, the Nightmare Blade, or the Investiture of the Gods. Who knew if this Dharma body could wield the five-colored divine light?

"The Heaven-Opening Axe, is this all its power?" the thousand-zhang-tall golden Dharma body said in a deep voice.

"Try again!" Zhong Shan\'s eyes narrowed proudly.

His palms, now surrounded by runes, had doubled in power. Zhong Shan\'s body also grew, reaching a thousand zhang tall. Borrowing the power of the Great Zheng, Zhong Shan wouldn\'t be outdone by anyone in terms of size.

With his silver-glowing palms, surrounded by countless runes, Zhong Shan struck out with immense force, facing the eighteen-armed golden Dharma body head-on.

Ancient divine powers could reach the heavens and stand upon the earth, and so could Zhong Shan, but it wasn\'t necessary.

Previously, Zhong Shan had used only thirty percent of his power in one palm strike, and Kong Xuan could tell. Even with just thirty percent, it seemed as if Kong Xuan could see through Zhong Shan\'s essence.

Kong Xuan was now convinced that even if Zhong Shan used his full strength, he would still be unable to defeat the golden Dharma body. In this small thousand-world, no one could match the golden Dharma body, except perhaps Ying, but Ying was no longer here. Despite possessing the Heaven-Opening Axe, Zhong Shan was not a match for the eighteen-armed golden Dharma body.

Kong Xuan reasoned that as long as the golden Dharma body destroyed one of Zhong Shan\'s bodies, the other would be easily defeated in a two-on-one scenario.

Even though the golden Dharma body had a guaranteed victory, Kong Xuan remained extremely cautious, probing Zhong Shan\'s limits. Numerous precedents had shown that Zhong Shan\'s trump cards were always unexpected and earth-shattering upon revelation.

Kong Xuan, though disdainful of Zhong Shan\'s previously revealed secrets, couldn\'t ensure he wouldn\'t suffer a setback again. The last time, he had indeed suffered.

Thus, Kong Xuan\'s golden Dharma body was still very careful.

The thousand-zhang-tall Zhong Shan raised his hands and once again struck towards the golden Dharma body.

Zhong Shan\'s palms struck out, and a gigantic, ten-thousand-zhang axe blade appeared in the void, slashing fiercely at the golden Dharma body. Under this massive axe blade, the void shattered, carrying an unstoppable force towards the golden Dharma body.

The same golden palm emerged, holding a Wind-Stabilizing Pearl, meeting the gigantic axe blade.

"Boom～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～!"

Another terrifying collision ensued, expanding the massive black hole to a size of two hundred thousand li, an extremely terrifying sight.

The powerful shockwave made Zhong Shan\'s blood churn, forcing him back a thousand zhang. His face turned red, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood from the backlash.

The recoil was too strong.

However, when he stopped, Zhong Shan was shocked to find that Kong Xuan\'s golden Dharma body hadn\'t moved an inch. Zhong Shan\'s powerful strike hadn\'t budged it at all. That previous strike had nearly reached the power of ancient divine abilities in their prime.

It still wasn\'t enough?

"Not enough!" The golden Dharma body shook its head, a tone of disdain in its voice.

"I don\'t believe it!" Zhong Shan roared, soaring up again.

Heavenly Demon Tempering Body, Seventh Level!

Eight times the power surged, and Zhong Shan\'s muscles swelled, the terrifying power visible through the veins bulging on his skin.

In the same posture and the same move, Zhong Shan struck again with eight times the strength.

"A secret method to stimulate potential? It\'s useless. Even if you increase your power tenfold, you can\'t harm my golden body. If this is your limit, then it\'s over!" The golden Dharma body said coldly.

Zhong Shan knew that even with eight times the power, it wasn\'t enough. But he had one last secret, which he was ready to use.

"One Strike of Pangu!" Zhong Shan shouted.

At the same time, in the sea of fortune clouds above the Lingxiao Heavenly Court, infused with \'destiny,\' all the divine statues emitted a thousand rays of golden light. Especially the chief divine statue, Zhong Shan\'s own, not only radiated golden light but also shone with seven-colored light above its head.

The seven-colored light surged, and the divine statue\'s power merged with Zhong Shan\'s strike, amplifying its force manifold. The sky trembled as Zhong Shan\'s hands, now imbued with the essence of the Pangu Axe, came crashing down towards the golden Dharma body with unprecedented might.

The seven-colored light seemed to connect heaven and earth, flashing brilliantly in an instant. Suddenly, the sky darkened, and winds and clouds surged in all directions.

For cultivators, such minor weather changes might not be significant, but the scope of this phenomenon was terrifyingly vast. It covered not just the Lingxiao Heavenly Court, but all four directions—across the Great Zheng\'s lands, the Taishang\'s territories, all of Shenzhou, and even the four seas. The entire world, this small thousand-world, was engulfed in the storm.

The horrifying change in the sky covered the entire world, every corner.

Kong Xuan, with Zhong Shan\'s shadow body, saw the sudden change in the heavens and widened his eyes, a look of horror flashing across his face.

"This is bad!" Kong Xuan suddenly exclaimed.

Indeed, it was bad. The scene at the golden Dharma body was the clearest.

The Heaven-Opening Move?

Is this the Heaven-Opening Move?

Zhong Shan struck with his palms, and the void manifested an enormous Heaven-Opening Axe shadow. However, this time, the axe was exaggeratedly large, spanning ten thousand li. The size wasn\'t the key factor—the power was.

The power of the Heaven-Opening Axe surged at an exaggerated rate, not drawn from Zhong Shan himself, but from the four corners of heaven and earth, gathering force from all directions.

Borrowing the power of heaven and earth? A terrifying convergence, an inconceivable gathering of strength. How could this be? He was just a mortal; why would heaven and earth lend him power? The heavens lending power?

How was this possible?

For the first time, the eighteen-armed golden Dharma body showed a look of shock.

Indeed, Zhong Shan\'s trump card, when revealed, was truly astonishing. This hidden power was immense. How could a mere mortal wield such immense strength and capability?

The eighteen-armed golden Dharma body realized it was locked onto by the colossal axe strike from the void, unable to move.

The golden Dharma body emitted boundless golden light, transforming into a gigantic figure a million zhang tall, with all eighteen arms radiating different lights, forming the strongest defense.

"Immovable King～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～!"

The third eye of the golden Dharma body flashed with seven-colored light, its face solemn, exuding vast, invincible power to meet Zhong Shan\'s overwhelming axe.

"Boom～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～!"

Zhong Shan\'s axe strike was unstoppable, cleaving through everything. A massive black hole extended from the battlefield towards the west, engulfing everything in its path, including Suimou City, which was obliterated into a black hole. The destructive path continued westward, shattering space for billions of li. The horrifying impact didn\'t stop, causing a massive tsunami in the Western Sea two days later.

The strike swept across half of Shenzhou.

The officials at the Lingxiao Heavenly Court were dumbfounded, their jaws nearly dropping in shock.

The Heaven Extreme Realm battles on the side also paused. Each fighter, looking like they had seen a ghost, stared at Zhong Shan. Despite being Heaven Extreme Realm cultivators themselves, even the black holes created by Emperor Xuan Sha and Daoist Shen Crow\'s battles were at most ten thousand li in diameter.

Yet, the black hole created by Zhong Shan and the eighteen-armed golden Dharma body stretched for billions of li? Were these two even human?

This was beyond monstrous!

Kong Xuan, who was with Zhong Shan\'s shadow body, widened his eyes in shock.

"It\'s the Pangu Axe Strike? The Pangu Axe Strike has reappeared. He\'s just a mortal, and he actually managed to unleash the Pangu Axe Strike. Impossible, impossible!" Kong Xuan\'s eyes were wide with disbelief.
