"Hm?" Di Heng naturally was the first to feel the sudden eruption of the ninety-nine needle bones before him. He was truly shocked. If previously, Su Chen’s manipulation of the bone formation had amazed and intrigued him, now, he was gravely serious, his arrogance fully dispelled.

Earlier, he felt pressure, but now, he felt danger!

Yes.

He felt intense danger.

Di Heng’s expression became much more solemn.

He was initially prepared to strike with a simple palm to deal with Su Chen, but in the blink of an eye, he decided to change his technique.

"Kunyun! Contrary Heart!! Cease Life!!!" Di Heng shouted these three words.

As he shouted, both his hands moved with extreme speed in front of him.

Too fast.

So fast that no one in the entire Di Family could really see it clearly.

It seemed as if strands of strange light rippled before Di Heng, his hands weaving like a formation, at extreme speed, creating an octagonal Halo Seal.

The Halo Seal didn’t appear to be thick, rich, or clear, and its aura didn’t seem strong, giving an impression of utter ordinariness.

But everyone in the Di Family with any knowledge widened their eyes, held their breath, and stared at Di Heng because this was one of Di Heng’s signature ultimate moves!

The entire Di Family knew that, apart from the Old Ancestors, Di Heng was the only one who had successfully cultivated all three of the Clan-Suppressing Divine Abilities.

And what are these three Clan-Suppressing Divine Abilities?

"Kunyun," "Contrary Heart," "Cease Life"!!!

All three divine abilities are exceptionally powerful. "Kunyun" is terrifying in its heaviness, crushing and suppressing with unrivaled weight. Many martial cultivators in the Di Family have trained in the "Kunyun" divine ability, like the Great Elder. The Great Elder once used "Kunyun" to crush a fourteen-million-meter-tall Divine Mountain into powder in one move—it was truly astonishing.

"Kunyun" can truly crush stars, shake mountains and rivers with supreme divine might.

"Contrary Heart" focuses on the essence of killing, using murderous intent as the guide and heart’s blood as its core. Derived through deduction from many ghastly and bloody killing techniques of the Ancient Era, it is incredibly frightening and its power is equally fearsome and cruel. It’s said that those who cultivate "Contrary Heart" drink heart’s blood, giving it a slightly demonic taste, and not many in the Di Family train in "Contrary Heart."

As for "Cease Life," it’s the hardest to cultivate of the three divine abilities but also the strongest, most abnormal, and the strangest one. "Cease Life" emphasizes stealth and, when cultivated to a profound level, it is said to allow killing from thousands of miles away, in dreams, invisibly. Currently, in the Di Family, no more than five people have successfully cultivated "Cease Life."

And now.

Di Heng directly gathered and deployed the three divine abilities!

This was truly shocking.

At least, thousands in the Di Family had never seen it.

Everyone was witnessing it for the first time.

Even Di Jie hadn’t seen it, even Di Jie widened his eyes.

What kind of power does the combination of the Di Family’s three divine abilities unleash?

He was eagerly anticipating.

At the same time, the entire Di Family, those who understood, instinctively gained more respect, fear, and awe for Su Chen, realizing Di Heng wasn’t someone to use something aimlessly. How else could he be the absolute leader in the legacy? Di Heng used the fused ultimate move of the three divine abilities right off the bat—what does this signify?

It signifies that Su Chen was indeed a threat to him!

Truly heart-stopping.

"Damn it!" At this moment, Su Chen’s mind plunged directly into despair. Di Heng’s decisiveness exceeded his expectations. He originally thought that, although he couldn’t defeat Di Heng and the gap was substantial, he might give all his effort, confront Di Heng with a few moves, then drag out the time, retreat profusely after a stick of incense burns, fleeing madly. But who could have thought, the first move...

It was just the first move, yet Di Heng held it in such regard.

His hair stood on end.

Others couldn’t feel it, but he could!

Di Heng’s move was directly aimed at him.

At that moment, he felt as though all the blood in his body was solidifying and freezing, even his Divine Mansion emitted a sense of danger.

You’re welcome! Su Chen could even feel the taste of death.

And there was also the retreating intent from the ninety-nine needle bones!

Even the bone formation was afraid.

It’s not the bone formation’s fault; after all, it lacks thoughts and soul, only having instinct. Instinctively feeling the danger, of course there would be a thought to retreat.

However, there was no time left, truly no time left.

In the blink of an eye.

Whew...

The octagonal Halo Seal suddenly enlarged.

It enlarged endlessly.

Enveloping the bone formation, enveloping Su Chen.

After enlarging, the Halo Seal seemed to suppress mountains, wind and cloud, suppressing air, time, suppressing space, thoughts.

Su Chen only felt himself completely shackled, unable to deploy his movement technique, even finding it difficult to circulate his mysterious qi.

He felt as if he had fallen into a Myriad Heavens Swamp.

That binding force was suffocating.

Simultaneously.

The light on the ninety-nine needle bones dimmed!

Were it not for the Divine Demon Ghost Fire, Chaotic Divine Thunder, and Chaotic Current watching, at this moment, those ninety-nine needle bones would have already fractured.

Unfortunately, Su Chen’s current strength is limited; although he drives the Three Great Cosmic Treasures into the ninety-nine needle bones, it is merely a small bit, integrated a bit. If more could have been integrated, perhaps he could fight back now.

"Kill!!!" Su Chen’s face was pale as he shouted wildly, enduring the taste of life and death pressure, even though it was extremely difficult for him to utter just this word.

Clearly, the Ghost Change Formation was being forcibly repressed and disappearing.

Yet Su Chen stubbornly drove it on, forcing the Strange Change Formation to attack.

What else could be done but attack?

If not attacked, the fusion of the three divine abilities would entirely fall on Su Chen, likely causing direct obliteration of his flesh, leaving his Divine Mansion exposed, then having it taken by Di Heng, leaving Su Chen with no chance for reincarnation.

He could only forcibly drive the bone formation to attack.

Attacking like an egg against a rock.

Such forced attacks have two consequences: First, Su Chen himself is severely injured, clearly visible as he spits out a mouthful of blood, his entire being wilting by seven points, his face like wax paper, his body filled with death energy.

Second, the precious bone formation, the ninety-nine needle bones, is wasted, essentially abandoned. Of course, Su Chen was pained to his core; it was a Supreme Treasure he had recently acquired! But life matters most! Furthermore, as long as he survives, successfully obtaining all treasures within the Emperor’s Treasure Abyss surely includes items surpassing the bone formation—there are even a few more. Sacrificing one bone formation doesn’t lose out!

In the next moment.

In Su Chen’s desperate mania, the ninety-nine needle bones erupted like ninety-nine dead soldiers, with life-risking attacks!!!

Undeterred by life or death, they charged head-on.

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack...

Then.

There was the sound of continuous fracturing.

Under the gaze of millions, the ninety-nine needle bones shattered one by one, disappearing one by one.
