Chapter 361: The Main God Space (Seventeen)

The winds and clouds surged.
As Su Chen took a step forward,
the endless shackles binding him shattered instantly.
"Great...Peak Great Sage!"
The elders of the Zhao family, sensing the sudden burst of powerful aura, were instantly astonished.
Su Chen's tiny figure seemed to be rapidly expanding above the Zhao family... This was a method they couldn't comprehend. Although Su Chen's body showed no change, they now viewed him like ants looking at an elephant, mayflies gazing at the vast sky.
Darkness fell!
It was a massive, sharply defined palm print, its five fingers spread wide, slamming down upon the Zhao family members below.
Countless formations crumbled, the islands of the Zhao family territory, each larger than a star, collapsed, rivers evaporated, and weaker Zhao family members instantly turned into blood mist. Even the Zhao family elders gradually followed in their footsteps.
No matter how they fled or struggled, they couldn't escape within five fingers' reach.
The destruction of most of the Zhao family's territory with a single palm strike spread like an expanding blaze, reaching all directions and drawing the attention of various Dao lineages in Tiannan Daozhou. They all turned their gazes towards the Zhao family's location.
The Zhao family, as one of the imperial clans of Tiannan Daozhou, though in decline, still possessed imperial weapons. Moreover, the Zhao family had undergone a dramatic transformation over a decade ago, producing more than one quasi-emperor and giving birth to a terrifyingly talented prodigy whose aptitude was unparalleled throughout history, hailed as destined to become an emperor. Countless Dao lineages vied to curry favor and invest.
"The Zhao family's grand formation is shattered..."
"No, that's not right. Not only is the Zhao family's grand formation shattered, but the Zhao family's territory is also facing a terrible crisis!"
"The Zhao family's territory is gone!"
This sudden turn of events immediately prompted various Dao lineages to awaken their patriarchs, eager to investigate what had happened to the Zhao family.
But they all received the same answer:
The Zhao family is in grave danger!
Above the Zhao family
Uncle Chen stared in disbelief at the ravaged Zhao family compound. He had annihilated the Zhao family with a single palm strike?
The destruction of the Zhao family's territory was not the end for Su Chen.
Such a cunning imperial clan with multiple burrows could not be easily destroyed. In other words... those he had just killed with a single slap were merely insignificant individuals.
The Zhao family's true strength still remained.
Su Chen looked in one direction.
"Enough, stop!"
A gentle breeze dispersed the haze, and a wrinkled man emerged, sighing softly at Su Chen. "You are ultimately a member of the Zhao family, the blood of the Zhao family flowing through your veins. I know the hatred in your heart for what happened back then. Now you have destroyed your clan's territory, and those who harmed you are all dead. Continuing further is pointless."
Although the newcomer emanated no aura, he seemed to be one with heaven and earth.
This was a Quasi-Emperor realm expert!
The Fifth Ancestor of the Zhao family!
He looked at Su Chen with a complex expression.
As the ancestor closest to Su Chen's former lineage, he naturally recognized Su Chen and the old man beside him.
The surviving member of that lineage had come knocking!
The strength Su Chen displayed filled him with both surprise and fear. A peak Great Saint, yet his combat power was in no way inferior to his own!
Su Chen remained calm, as if he had merely crushed a group of ants, feeling no joy in revenge.
“Meaningless?”
Su Chen spoke softly, “You mean, you stripped your talents in exchange for the protection of the upper realm, and that’s the meaning?”
The Fifth Ancestor of the Zhao family trembled upon hearing this, his composure completely gone, and he exclaimed in horror, “How did you know…”
He didn’t finish his sentence.
But Su Chen had already gotten the answer he wanted.
His loss of talent in this life was not accidental.
Everything stems from self-interest.
The Fifth Ancestor of the Zhao family realized his lapse in composure and quickly regained his composure, sighing, “You have committed a grave error. Give up resisting, and I will treat you leniently.”
Su Chen felt that this old man had probably lost his mind; did he see him as a junior to be manipulated at will?
The Fifth Ancestor of the Zhao family suddenly realized that the power of heaven and earth seemed to have transformed into a binding force.
Bang!
With a single slap, the physical bodies of the fifth ancestor of the Zhao family shattered. A cloud of blood energy accompanied a translucent soul, which stared in horror at the scene: "I am your ancestor!"
As the words fell, the black energy transformed into a terrifying beast, swallowing the blood energy and the soul of the fifth ancestor in one gulp. Boundless black light appeared on Su Chen's body, sweeping across the heavens and earth, piercing through the entire universe!
Su Chen's cultivation had reached the Quasi-Emperor realm, yet his aura resembled that of a reborn ancient emperor!
Behind Su Chen, a terrifying phantom of a Taotie appeared, grabbing at a certain space before lowering its head. Its two blood-moon-like pupils stared at the 'ants' below, savage and brutal!
This was the ancestral land of the Zhao family, the true foundation of the Zhao family!
"You...how dare you do this!"
The Zhao family ancestor sensed the danger and awakened, only to see a gigantic head staring at them from the enormous hole. The terrifying beast's eyes were fixed on them, as if they were...a dessert?
"No!"
The first to speak, the fourth Zhao family ancestor, was swallowed whole by the gigantic head that plunged into the hole. A scream echoed through the air. All the Zhao family ancestors felt a chill run through them; for a moment, they had lost consciousness, unable to muster the slightest resistance, watching helplessly as their fourth ancestor was devoured!
A quasi-Emperor died just like that.
The terrifying beast seemed unsatisfied, looking at the remaining Zhao family ancestors, devouring them with relish!
Blood and savagery!
"An Emperor Weapon! The Emperor Weapon must be awakened!"
An outline slowly unfolded—a scroll containing supreme power. This was the Emperor Weapon left behind by the Zhao family's Great Emperor, and at this moment, it revealed its sharpness!
The remaining ancestors of the Zhao family awakened their imperial weapons, unleashing a vast and awe-inspiring imperial might.
"The Zhao family has actually mobilized even their imperial weapons!"
"Could it be that some supreme being has recklessly emerged to attack the Zhao family?"
The news of the Zhao family's imperial weapon's emergence could not be kept secret. Its terrifying aura was enough to easily crush the Central Plains, causing widespread panic among other forces. Was an imperial war about to erupt?
