Chapter 1363: Civil War

SWISH—!!

The moment his voice fell, the lights in the dining room went out simultaneously!

Endless darkness, like a monster crawling out of the abyss, swallowed the entire palace in one gulp. In an instant, the faint aura of good fortune that Sun Bumian had struggled to maintain shattered with a bang, as fragile as a piece of white paper.

Sun Bumian at the dining table let out a muffled groan. He looked at the figure at the end of the long table who had completely transformed into darkness, his shock mixed with a hint of complexity...

So, Chen Ling had known all along that he was trying to use the aura of good fortune to change the pattern of great calamity... During this time, Chen Ling had been carefully restraining his aura, as if walking a tightrope at high altitude, creating a false impression that the calamity was easing. But in reality, the effect he had achieved was negligible.

Only now did Sun Bumian realize how deeply Chen Ling had been assimilated by the Calamity of Derision. In the face of Chen Ling's true aura, his own arrangements were as childish and ridiculous as a child's toys.

"Heart... you..."

Jian Changsheng felt the extremely violent world-ending aura at the end of the long table, his mind shaking wildly!

He thought his progress had been fast, but when Chen Ling released his aura, he realized how ridiculous his thoughts were... Peak Seventh Order? Eighth Order?

Even though his murderous intent had a natural suppressive effect on calamities, under Chen Ling's absolute crushing power, an unprecedented sense of powerlessness surged into his heart.

This was supposed to be a one-sided challenge from Jian Changsheng to Chen Ling, but Chen Ling had expanded the target to cover the entire 6-series.

Crushing Jian Changsheng was to tighten his gears and urge him to grow faster; dragging Sun Bumian into it was to let him truly understand his current strength... Although Chen Ling didn't know why Sun Bumian was suddenly so concerned about his safety, he could use this method to prove to Sun Bumian that he now had the absolute ability to protect himself!

As for Jiang Xiaohua...

Chen Ling had never seen Jiang Xiaohua fight with all his might. Among the 6-series, Jiang Xiaohua was also the most mysterious one. Chen Ling wanted to take this opportunity to see Jiang Xiaohua's limits.

But the three people in front of him seemed to be stunned by Chen Ling's current aura. Even Jian Changsheng forgot to attack for a moment.

The next second,

The figure of Chen Ling in the black robe vanished without a trace.

"What? You were the one who proposed to spar with me... It's only just begun, and you're already scared?" Chen Ling's ghostly voice sounded from behind Jian Changsheng.

Jian Changsheng's pupils contracted sharply. He hadn't seen how Chen Ling appeared behind him at all, but under the stimulation of the intense world-ending aura, his monstrous murderous intent burst out instinctively, and he twisted his body to slash at his back with his sword!

BOOM—!!!

The black-fire-like murderous intent shattered the ceiling of the dining room, and broken stones scattered all over the ground. An exaggerated sword mark had already pierced a gap in the palace, and beneath that gap...

A figure in a black robe used only two fingers to easily block the tip of Jian Changsheng's sword.

Jian Changsheng's murderous intent didn't leave any damage on that pitch-black body at all. Chen Ling's feet were hovering off the ground, a pair of scarlet pupils looking down indifferently at the stunned Jian Changsheng, a ferocious smile curling on his mottled lips...

"Did you not eat?"

CLANG—!!

Chen Ling flicked his finger, and the terrifying force directly sent Jian Changsheng's sword flying, also hitting him like a cannonball, smashing through the wall and throwing him out of the palace.

"Fine... I'd like to see just how strong you are now." A sharp glint flashed in Sun Bumian's eyes. He loosened his muscles and flew out!

Before this, whenever Sun Bumian encountered a battle, he would avoid it if he could. But knowing this was his last reincarnation, his mindset had changed silently... He wanted to live more freely and casually. He had almost forgotten how many years ago it was since he last enjoyed a battle.

Of course, in this battle with Chen Ling, he couldn't use those cheating reincarnation powers; he wanted to spar with his own real strength.

Colorful flames ignited from Sun Bumian's temples. He stepped through the air, flashed above Chen Ling, and kicked down fiercely. A thick, massive giant lion's foot, like a divine pillar falling from the sky, pressed straight toward Chen Ling's face!

THUD—!!

With a muffled sound, spiderweb-like cracks spread from the floor of the palace, but these cracks were not caused by the giant lion's foot; they extended from beneath the feet of Chen Ling in the black robe...

It turned out that Chen Ling in the black robe was still standing quietly in place, holding up the mountain-like giant lion's foot with one hand, his black robe moving without wind.

Discovering that his full-force kick couldn't shake Chen Ling in the slightest, Sun Bumian's heart sank.

Then, he felt his feet lighten...

Chen Ling, who had been under his feet, was gone.

His mouth twitched, and he immediately shouted: "Take it easy on me!!"

The next second, a pitch-black palm, even larger than the giant lion's foot, slapped down from above his head, throwing him like a fly directly onto the cliff outside, smashing a deep pit with a roar!

Chen Ling's figure descended slowly, and that palm that covered the sky returned to its original state. He landed lightly in front of Jiang Xiaohua.

"Heart, I don't want to fight you." Jiang Xiaohua said longingly.

Chen Ling's fist, which had already been swung halfway, stopped in mid-air... He looked at those sincere eyes and couldn't bring himself to strike.

"The two of them have been beaten by me. If you don't get beaten, I'm afraid they'll feel unbalanced." The tone of Chen Ling in the black robe was gentle for the first time. "How about we just pretend?"

"Ah... that's fine." Jiang Xiaohua nodded.

Chen Ling in the black robe grabbed Jiang Xiaohua's shoulder and threw him out gently. Jiang Xiaohua cooperated quite well by shouting "Ah," rolled on the ground outside twice, and then started lying on the ground playing dead.

The roar of the underground palace attracted the attention of many poisonous insects outside, but after seeing Chen Ling in the black robe walk slowly out of the palace, they consciously retracted their heads.

Don't know what the King is up to again.

But tearing down the palace wasn't the first time... As long as he didn't abuse the bugs, it was fine.

Just as Chen Ling walked out of the palace, a black moon bloomed in mid-air. Jian Changsheng, having activated [Nether Wheel Night Dance], held his long sword and descended from the sky, carrying murderous intent like ocean waves!

"Again!!" Jian Changsheng roared unwillingly, his long sword slashing straight at Chen Ling's face.

Jian Changsheng was like a swimming dragon, weaving through space, moving up and down freely. But even though his speed was fast to the extreme, in Chen Ling's eyes, it was still too slow...

Chen Ling took a step, and his figure actually soared into the air, shattering the black sun in mid-air. The terrifying pressure of the world-ending level, like black clouds, directly covered the entire sky above the palace!
