"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The terrifying attacks all bombarded the Seven Killings Hall's secret realm. The surrounding void had condensed into formation patterns, and although its Mountain Protection Array was strong, it couldn't withstand the prolonged assault by numerous Yang God True Monarchs.

One must know, Chen Yuan wasn't an ordinary Yang God True Monarch; he possessed power akin to an Immortal, equating to the strength of ten Yang Gods. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Stop, King Yan!"

The voice of the Seven Killings Hall Master came from within the secret realm. A mirror image swiftly formed on the realm's thin barrier, reflecting the figure of the Hall Master within.

Upon seeing Chen Huaiyi, his face immediately darkened, realizing that the secret realm's location had been leaked by this very person to Chen Yuan.

Filled with regret for his previous mercy, he lamented not having tried harder to eliminate this individual.

"Come out!"

Chen Yuan commanded lowly, staring at the mirror image of the Hall Master.

Chen Huaiyi, Tianxu, and Xu Yan remained unmoved, continuously bombarding the secret realm. With their formidable power, it wouldn't take long before the secret realm and its Sect Protection Array shattered completely.

"Please calm down, King Yan. When did our Seven Killings Hall offend Your Highness? We agreed to maintain peace; why this sudden aggression?"

"Why pretend now? Your hall's ancestor aided Xiang Qianqiu in ambushing me and failed. Today is retribution day."

"What? I had no idea of such a thing...."

"Heh heh..."

Chen Yuan let out a cold laugh, as the terrifying power of laws erupted again, not bothering to waste time on this person. The surrounding void had been sealed; breaking through the secret realm was merely a matter of time.

Seeing Chen Yuan ignoring him, the Seven Killings Hall Master's heart filled with anxiety, knowing that the secret realm wouldn't last long. Hurriedly, he pleaded:

"Calm down, King Yan. I truly didn't know our ancestor aided Xiang Qianqiu. However, seeing Your Highness's anger, I believe your words are true.

I'm deeply sorry and willing to compensate for Your Highness's losses."

Yet, Chen Yuan showed no response, treating the Hall Master's words like air. Though internally enraged, he outwardly maintained his apology.

"If Your Highness forgives the Seven Killings Hall this time, I promise that henceforth, our hall will submit to King Yan, aiding in expanding your territory.

I've had this thought since returning from the Goddess Palace and sent someone to Shuzhou City to discuss an alliance with Your Highness."

"Very well, then open the secret realm, and we shall discuss properly!"

Chen Yuan said coldly.

The Hall Master's mind raced. If he opened the secret realm, wouldn't life and death be under Chen Yuan's control?

"If Your Highness agrees to stop now, I'll open the secret realm immediately, without delay!"

"Fine, I'll give you a chance. Allow me to place a restriction in your Primordial Spirit, and your hall's Immortals as well.

If you comply, I can pardon the Seven Killings Hall."

"This... King Yan, isn't that condition excessive? Despite our initial fault, the Seven Killings Hall is still a Central Plains Immortal Sect.

How can mighty Immortals lower themselves to be controlled?"

"Then there's nothing more to discuss."

"You... King Yan, don't push too far. Our hall, after all, is guarded by Immortals who you can't insult. Even if you break the secret realm today, you can't stop the Immortals from leaving.

Such a grudge would be endless and futile. It would be wiser to retreat for greater gain."

The Hall Master suppressed his anger and said quietly.

"And what if I did? An Immortal Sect... hahaha... is truly frightening. Since I dare to act, I'm not afraid of any grudges.

Today... the Seven Killings Hall must perish!"

Finishing his words, he swiftly turned to Tianxu Daoist, asking sternly:

"How is it?"

"Please, King Yan, strike!"

Tianxu Daoist immediately retreated, pointing forward.

Chen Yuan's gaze turned cold, and a light flashed in his hand. The God Slaying Spear materialized, its terrifying killing Qi soaring into the sky like a waking beast.

Even without summoning the Ancestor Seal, the God Slaying Spear was still the most terrifying weapon of slaughter in this world, greatly enhancing Chen Yuan's combat power.

The moment Chen Yuan wielded the God Slaying Spear, the Hall Master's expression froze, a hint of terror evident. He realized one thing for certain.

Xiang Qianqiu... was definitely dead!

Otherwise, the God Slaying Spear wouldn't be in Chen Yuan's hands.

As blood Qi surged, primordial energy erupted, and his five viscera roared together. The purple divine light within his Spirit Platform flashed, and the powerful rule force instantly gathered on the God Slaying Spear.

With one step, the void changed colors, leaving only Chen Yuan in the world. He emotionlessly thrust forward, the terrifying spear glare sweeping across the vastness.

It struck the weakened spot previously attacked by Tianxu and others.

At this moment, the world seemed to pause, as if frozen in time. Yet the stillness lasted only a heartbeat. Mere moments later, a sound like a shattering mirror echoed.

"Boom!"

The secret realm of the Seven Killings Hall shattered into a massive hole, and Chen Yuan smirked coldly, stepping in with the God Slaying Spear.

The Hall Master quickly retreated. Now, only their ancestor could confront Chen Yuan wielding the God Slaying Spear.

The terrifying rumble was immense, shaking the entire secret realm. Hundreds of killers from the Seven Killings Hall gathered near the grand hall of the secret realm.

Expressionless, they stared down the incoming enemy.

Their blood had long run cold. Though somewhat fearful, they maintained basic composure, readying their formation behind several Yamas.

"Uncle, it's your turn."

Chen Yuan glanced, quickly disappearing to chase toward the rear mountain of the secret realm.

Chen Huaiyi looked at the familiar faces below, speaking loudly:

"The Seven Killings Hall has acted against nature, arrogantly attacking King Yan. This is a path to self-destruction. Yet, by my plea, King Yan is magnanimous. Those who surrender will be spared.

Refuse, and be executed on the spot!"

Unlike other Immortal Sect forces, within the hall, assassins held little sentiment. They came through countless trials, merely seeking a shelter, rarely willing to die for the hall.

If taken under wing, they could significantly boost Jinyi Guard's power. If they surrender, Chen Yuan didn't mind turning foes into allies.

Of course, this required exterminating the Hall Master's loyalists, a task well-suited for Chen Huaiyi, hidden in the Seven Killings Hall for decades.

Hearing this, the assassins showed hesitation, exchanging glances. The leading Yamas quickly weighed pros and cons.

"Ten seconds, surrender or be slain!"

Tianxu Daoist said coldly.

"One,"

"Two,"

"Three,"

...

"Seven,"

As Tianxu Daoist counted to seven, someone finally succumbed to the pressure. A Yama knelt on one knee, solemnly declaring:

"Reincarnation is willing to serve King Yan!"

With a Yama leading, the rest was simple. Sporadic assassins from the Seven Killings Hall swiftly knelt, expressing loyalty.

However, some loyalists to the Hall Master sneered disdainfully, attacking Chen Huaiyi. But against ordinary Refining God Yamas, Chen didn't need to intervene.

Xu Yan Monk intoned a Buddha's name, a hundred-foot Golden Dragon rising behind him, coiling in the void, striking down hard on the Yama.

"Boom!"

With one blow, the Yama fell, his body and primordial spirit annihilated on the spot, leaving stillness behind.

"Amitabha, who else wishes to try?"

Xu Yan Monk, smiling faintly, watched the assassins below.

Under such pressure, the rest hesitated no more, choosing to submit to Chen Yuan.

They were killers for profit. Who didn't need a patron?

With the fall of the Seven Killings Hall, they'd find another....
