The Templars retreated fearfully. It was said that the Unholy One was merciless. Now that they had met him, would he show mercy to them? It seemed like he was about to kill them at any time.
Now that the two ancient gods were gone, Lu Zhou flew up into the sky.
Upon seeing this, the hundreds of Templars retreated in fear again. Their legs were trembling.
“Get out of my way,” Lu Zhou said in a deep and powerful voice.
Soundwaves swept out, and the hundreds of Templars quickly moved to the sides.
After that, Lu Zhou flew back to the Sacred Region.
The Templars could not decide if they should chase after Lu Zhou or not as they watched him fly away. It took a long time before they finally returned to their senses.
“Quick! Report to the Great Emperor!”
“The remaining Pillars of Destruction can’t hold on anymore as well!”
Then, a few Templars flew away to report these matters to Ming Xin.
The end of the world was coming. If they could not find a solution, Sacred City and the Sacred Region would fall.
…
At this time, Ming Xin and Si Wuya landed on a lofty mountain.
When Ming Xin learned that Kua Fu and Xing Tian failed to guard the Tower of Heaven, he quickly brought the Sky Encompassing Mirror out. Through the mirror, he saw the Tower of Heaven, but Kua Fu and Xing Tian were nowhere to be seen. Apart from that, Sacred City seemed like it was experiencing an earthquake.
The shaking was violent, and many buildings began to crack.
Rumble!
The mountain beneath Ming Xin and Si Wuya’s feet suddenly began to shake violently as well. Small rocks and huge boulders began to roll down the slope, and the huge boulders knocked down many ancient trees.
Coincidentally, a huge crack appeared between Ming Xin and Si Wuya. The crack stretched from south to north, and where the crack ended could not be seen at all.
Fortunately, the power of the earth in the nine domains had been suppressed. After splitting and cracking to a certain stage, the earth would mend itself again.
Although these were all within Si Wuya’s expectations, he was still shocked. There was no need to guess; he knew the crack had to span the entire black lotus domain.
Human cultivators near the crack sensed the power from the crack, and when they drew close, they were instantly pulled into the crack and disappeared.
Ming Xin frowned slightly before he grabbed Si Wuya. He appeared in a wasteland in just a flash.
The weather in the Great Void had always been good, but today, the sky was hazy. The air felt heavy and suffocating.
Seeing Ming Xin observing his surroundings, Si Wuya mustered up his courage again and advised, “The remaining pillars are falling. For the sake of the humans in Sacred City and the Great Void who haven’t left yet, please give up, Your Majesty. Please put down the grudge between you and my master and see the bigger picture.”
Ming Xin waved his hand casually.
The Sky Encompassing Mirror hovered in the air.
The Tower of Heaven appeared in the mirror again. Then, the scene changed to show the other Towers of Heaven. There were ten Towers of Heaven altogether in the Sacred Region.
Ming Xin’s gaze was profound as he looked at the changing images. At this time, a strange object appeared in his hand, and he said, “It’s about time.”
“What?” An ominous feeling rose in Si Wuya’s heart.
“Everyone knows that I possess the Scales of Justice, but they don’t know that I possess another treasure,” Ming Xin said. His tone turned serious as he said, “This is called the Great Stone of Natural Law. It contains the laws of heaven and earth, and it’s the key treasure that connects the ten great laws.”
Si Wuya was shocked as he looked at the jade-like object in Ming Xin’s hand.
At this moment, the jade-like object slowly began to glow with a dark red light, which was not very eye-catching.
Following that, Ming Xin flipped his hand. Golden light burst forth from his hand as he pushed the Great Stone of Natural Law to the ground.
Boom!
The Great Stone of Natural Law sank into the ground. With it in the center, ten tiny golden strings spread out in ten different directions at lightning speed.
One of them shot toward Si Wuya and quickly bound him before raising him into the air.
Si Wuya frowned and tried to mobilize his Primal Qi to struggle. However, the golden string seemed to contain the law. How could Primal Qi alone shake the laws? In the end, he had to obey the law. He muttered in disbelief, “How’s this… possible?”
A satisfied expression appeared on Ming Xin’s face when he saw the golden strings that were originally only as thin as a finger were now as thick as an arm. He clasped his hands on his back before he said, “Don’t bother resisting. You’ve obtained a lot of information from Guan Jiu, and you know the laws very well. However, do you think you know me very well?”
Si Wuya remained silent. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he did not understand Ming Xin at all. After a while, he asked, “What are you doing?”
Even if Si Wuya had matured and learned to be humble, he still did not like the feeling of being controlled.
“The Great Stone of Natural Law will tell you everything…”
The Sky Encompassing Mirror flashed.
In the mirror, the ten Towers of Heaven exploded with light. The pillars of light quickly shot up to the sky through the clouds.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
All the cultivators from the Great Void and Sacred Region who had yet to leave looked in the direction of Sacred City. Many of them cried out in excitement.
“I knew His Majesty won’t forsake us!”
“We’re saved!”
“The Sacred Region will live on forever, and His Majesty will live on forever!”
In fact, there had been a rumor that the day the ten great laws appeared would be the day the Sacred Region was reborn.
Ever since the Pillars of Destruction had begun to collapse, the Sacred Temple remained indifferent about the impending disaster that was about to land on the nine domains, the Unknown Land, and the Great Void. There was only one reason for this: the Sacred Temple could not stop the fall of the Great Void and could only save the Sacred Region.
From the moment the first Pillar of Destruction fell at Dunzang, the Sacred Temple had issued an order prohibiting cultivators of the Sacred Region from leaving without permission. They were also prohibited from migrating and participating in the migration and representative plan.
