The sudden appearances of the golden lotuses in the nine domains caught the human alliance off guard. They mobilized one-third of their force and rushed to various places.
Whether it was a divine emperor, a divine king, or a newly promoted divine lord, all of them felt powerless faced with this disaster.
…
Zhi Guangji; the Black Emperor, who was far away in his Lost Land, originally planned to go into seclusion, never to interfere in the world's affairs ever again. However, when he heard about the shocking change, he immediately led his army and rushed to the nine domains.
With that, along with Shang Zhang, five divine emperors defended five domains and protected mankind.
…
In the sky above Sacred City.
Lu Zhou looked at the streaks of light from the Tower of Heaven that were suspended in the sky in confusion. After a moment, he turned around and casually unleashed a palm seal.
The palm seal grabbed the neck of a Templar in the distance and pulled him over to Lu Zhou immediately.
Lu Zhou asked in a deep voice, "What's happening?"
The Templar shivered. "This, this… I, I really don't know. Unholy One, spare me! Please spare me!"
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
Bang!
The Templar flew back.
Then, Lu Zhou circled a Tower of Heaven thrice before he attacked it with the divine Dao power.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Tower of Heaven flashed, and the divine Dao power shot up into the sky alongside the tower.
"Hm?" Lu Zhou was slightly surprised. "Power of the laws?"
Lu Zhou did not continue attacking the Tower of Heaven. He flashed and appeared at the prison in the city.
Several guards were stationed at the entrance. In fact, none of them wanted to be here. The world was in turmoil, and the Great Void was already falling. Even if they possessed great abilities, they would still fall to their deaths.
Lu Zhou pressed his hand down, and three light disks hit the prison.
Boom!
Without any suspense, the prison was destroyed.
At this time, a large number of cultivators from Sacred City, including Templars, rushed over.
The Templars cried out, "Everyone, calm down! Don't act rashly! The Unholy One has appeared! Don't make any pointless sacrifices!"
The cultivators were shocked. The Templars' words finally confirmed their speculation that the Unholy One had returned. They were frightened out of their wits when they thought about how the Unholy One had returned to settle old scores.
Needless to say, no one dared to go up against the Unholy One.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou unleashed a palm seal downward, grabbing Qi Tong.
When Qi Tong felt its body being bound, it leaped in fright before it was pulled up into the sky. While it was suspended in the air in front of Lu Zhou, its nose twitched as it sniffed the air. He muttered, "You're not Ming Xin… You… Who are you?"
Qi Tong did not know the identity of the person in front of it, but it knew it was the same person who came to see it previously.
Lu Zhou said in a deep voice, "You only need to answer my question."
Qi Tong sensed Lu Zhou's killing intent in his voice. The killing intent made his heart shake violently. Even Ming Xin had never given him this sense of pressure. It shivered involuntarily and tried to struggle free. Alas, the hand seal contained the divine Dao power so how could it break free? In the end, it gave up struggling.
Seeing that Qi Tong was no longer struggling, Lu Zhou asked, "What's the use of the Towers of Heaven?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Tong exclaimed in shock, "Ming Xin really constructed the Towers of Heaven?! Heaven's will! This is all heaven's will!"
"Answer my question," Lu Zhou said as he raised his voice.
The soundwave suppressed Qi Tong, making it difficult for it to breathe. After a moment, it said in a trembling voice, "I, I saw the future… I saw the disaster, the end of the world, and, and… only one city remained standing! I saw it! I saw it all!"
The Great Void kept shaking, agitating Qi Tong who seemed to sense the chaos and panic. It said, "The Towers of Heaven can hold the ten great laws. After gathering the ten great laws, you'll be able to prop the sky up and construct the perfect heaven!" Its speed grew faster as it said, "I didn't expect this! I really didn't expect Ming Xin to do it!"
"Construction the perfect heaven?" Lu Zhou said with a frown, "If it were so easy, the Great Void wouldn't have fallen."
Qi Tong said, "No, no… I saw it. I saw the future…"
At this moment, Lu Zhou noticed that Qi Tong's aura seemed to have changed. Its eyes were unfocused as though it was seeing something that no one else could see. There was excitement, agitation, and shock in its eyes. These emotions did not seem fake.
Lu Zhou was puzzled. Was it really possible for the Towers of Heaven to turn Sacred Region into a new heaven?
Suddenly, Qi Tong burst out laughing. It pointed at the sky and said through his laughter, "I also saw the Unholy One! He's dead! He's going to die!"
"..."
Qi Tong's words were heard by the cultivators in the surroundings, but they were not excited or happy. Instead, they only retreated as though they were facing a great enemy, After Qi Tong tended to ramble a lot so no one paid much attention to its words. They only thought that Qi Tong really did not want to live anymore! It dared to anger the Unholy One like that; blood would surely spill.
Lu Zhou asked in a deep voice, "What did you say?"
Qi Tong laughed wildly. "I said I saw the Unholy One die! The future! The future! Everything's heaven's will!"
Lu Zhou clenched his hand slightly, and the palm seal tightened its grip around Qi Tong immediately.
Crack!
"Are you cursing me?" Lu Zhou asked in a sonorous and powerful voice.
Qi Tong: "?????"
Qi Tong froze. Then, its legs weakened, and its body began to tremble. It pointed at Lu Zhou and stammered, agitated, "You, you, you, you, you… You're the Unholy One?!"
Lu Zhou reached out to push Qi Tong before he asked, "You can see the future, but you don't know who I am?"
"I, I, I… You, you've lived for too long so I can't see anything!" Qi Tong wanted to cry at this moment.
"Since you can't see it, how dare you talk about my life and death, hmm?" Lu Zhou asked, enunciating each word.
Qi Tong: "..."
Qi Tong's words were stuck in his throat. Then, its eyes that seemed to be looking at something at this moment suddenly turned blank.
