Chapter 265: The Hand of Heaven, The Abyss Has Been Punctured

Name: Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate.

Status: After he had escaped death, Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate brought him back to the Abyss. Under the assistance of several Demon Venerates, he had healed most of his injuries.

Right now, he was discussing with other Demon Venerates the way to counter the Great Abyss as well as the Infinite Realm Auction House that appeared out of nowhere. He suggested that they should destroy the Tianyuan Realm and kill Jiang Ming first.

He gave three reasons to back up with his suggestion.

Firstly, Jiang Ming had killed two Demon Venerates, so they had to avenge the death of their fallen comrades. If they killed Jiang Ming, not only would they be able to raise the morale of the Abyss, but it could also act as a warning for those forces from the Heavenly Realm that they were not pushovers.

Secondly, there was a great secret inside the Tianyuan Realm, and it was a huge probability that it was related to the Holy Dao. If they could get it, the overall combat prowess of the Abyss would increase by leaps and bounds.

Thirdly, Jiang Ming might be able to get a ton of Dao Vessels from the Infinite Realm Auction House, and it would be too late to kill him by then.

He suggested that they should send four Demon Venerates and kill Jiang Ming before it was too late.

A hint of coldness flashed across Jiang Ming’s eyes.

After Mountain Master Tian Yuan had returned to his own house, Jiang Ming withdrew his gaze. There was an invisible forcefield enveloping the balcony.

“Want to kill me? Let me give you all a big gift first. I wonder if you can take it or not?”

He sat on the rattan chair and checked the status of Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate and the Blood Emperor through the Human Paths Record.

He lifted his eyebrows in surprise when he saw the Blood Emperor’s status.

The Blood Emperor was the new supporter that Xue Tao Demon Lord had found. He was a Great Overarching Expert, and he was very famous in the Abyss. He also had the potential to become the Demon Venerate in the future.

At this moment, he was located in the direction about ten million miles away from Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate.

‘Ten million miles? That’s too close.’

As for Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate, he was with Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate right now.

‘Hah!’ Jiang Ming scoffed inwardly as he summoned a clone beside him. At the same time, he also took a jade amulet out.

“Senior brother, you’re going to do that again?” Phoenix Linglong asked as she threw herself on him. “This is so exciting. I can’t wait to see it anymore!”

“I’m not doing anything to you, so what’s there to be so excited about?” Jiang Ming asked as he wrapped his arms around her.

“Now that you mentioned it… Why don’t we have another blood-and-fire showdown on the balcony?”

“You’ll burn yourself to death!”

“I’m more than happy to get burned to death!”

“Hands off! Ouch! You’re hurting me!” Jiang Ming shouted angrily.

He pulled out the Heavenly Batton and flew into the sky. Very soon, he had arrived at the Heavenly Southern Gate.

At this moment, the clone took the jade amulet and went into the Human Paths Record. Using the locate function, he went to the designated location.

Jiang Ming shuddered as he could feel his power was being drained away.

“How fast, senior brother! Is this the best you can do?”

Jiang Ming was speechless.

At the deepest part of the Abyss.

There was a mountain of about 720,000 feet tall that seemed to have reached the sky. It was massive and it was exuding a brilliant light. On top of the peak sat a magnificent palace, which for billions of years had emitted a blood-colored glow, coloring the sky and ground in blood red.

Inside the palace, the meeting chamber.

It looked like deep space here with a dozen stars circling around. Six of them were emitting light, and there were huge figures sitting on them.

Two of them were none other than Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate and Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate.

“Are you sure it’s necessary for all of us to go after a small human cultivator?” A Demon Venerate asked, his voice booming, “If those old things from the Heavenly Realm know about it, they will laugh at us!”

“Hong Luo is dead, Thousand-Handed is dead, and Ghost-Faced was nearly killed,” Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate said with a heavy voice, “Of course, we need to take him seriously. That kid cultivates the legendary World Dao. Not only that, but he has also mastered all 3,000 laws, so we mustn’t take him lightly. He’s in the Golden Immortal Extreme Realm right now, and it would be too late if his inner world evolves again. Right now, his immortal origin is almost on the same level as most of us here, not to mention that he could detonate Great Overarching Dao Vessels to unleash a powerful attack on his enemy. Do you have any idea how many Dao Vessels he has detonated in the previous fight? Ten of them! And he wasn’t affected by the recoil damage from detonating in the slightest bit.

“Who could survive if he were to detonate ten Great Overarching Dao Vessels at the same time? You? Or Me? I’m afraid even the Great Heavenly Venerate himself couldn’t survive against an attack of that magnitude!

“Besides, although the Tianyuan Realm doesn’t look like it, it’s a Sage Venerates Dao Square.

“I think it won’t take long before he’s fully healed from the injuries he sustained from the fight.

“Now that the Infinite Realm Auction House has descended, who could or who has the guts to stop him if he gets some Great Overarching Dao Vessels from them?

“Besides, what if he has another breakthrough?

“We’re his enemies, and if we don’t seize the chance and kill him right now, forget about the Great Heavenly Venerate, I’m sure he’ll kill us all first!

“Gentleman, he’s a monster!

“Have you guys forgotten about what happened to Kun Peng and his son? Despite him being an ancient being, he killed both his son and him without any remorse.

“Also, humans might seem weak on the surface, there are a lot of them. Now that he is on the rise and with Mountain Master Tian Yuan on his side, I’m sure more and more people will join his cause in the future.

“Once he becomes the leader of the humans, he’s going to become a bigger threat than the Great Heavenly Venerate. After all, the Great Heavenly Venerate has to maintain the balance. Even if he has the ability to wipe us out, he wouldn’t do it as well.

“Guys, that’s all I have to say. Let’s cast our vote now.”

Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate had analyzed the situation thoroughly.

As for the Great Abyss Trial?

They did not really care about it.

As long as the Great Heavenly Venerate did not come, there shouldn’t be any trouble.

Suddenly, all of them jerked up from their seats, and there was a shocked expression on their face.

They all hastily came out of the meeting hall. When they lifted their heads and looked upward, their faces turned pale.

There was a palace ten million miles away. The Blood Emperor was drinking wine with his arm around a lust demon.

There was a group of dancers in revealing clothes in front of him, but his gaze was calm and his face was stern.

He was terrified when he saw the death of Kun Peng and Demon Venerates at Jiang Ming’s hand.

After Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate took Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate away, he ran and came back to the Abyss.

He did not dare to stay in the Infinite Realm Battlefield anymore.

“I didn’t expect that the Great Heavenly Venerate would open up the Great Abyss Trial…”

The Blood Emperor shuddered when the thought flitted across his head. He knew exactly what would happen afterward.

Many demons in the Abyss would die. Demon lords, demon kings, and even demon emperors would be killed.

The reason he came here right after he had returned to the Abyss was to hide. He decided to stay here until the Great Abyss Trial was over.

“Sigh, why are there so many things happening at the same time?” The Blood Emperor sighed. Suddenly, he felt a chill crept down his spine. He jerked his head to the side and saw there was a man standing beside him.

“How is this possible?!” He shouted in surprise.

This palace was a powerful demonic vessel. He would know about it even if a Demon Venerate came in, but now…

‘Oh no!’

Before he could do anything, he saw the man stretch his finger at him. At that moment, space froze and time stopped. Just when the Blood Emperor tried to break himself free from the restraint, the finger had already pierced through his forehead.

The Blood Emperor was dead.

The person was none other than Jiang Ming’s clone. He located the Blood Emperor’s location through the Human Paths Record, and came to kill him first.

He glanced at the female demons in the palace and his eyebrows twitched. Even though Jiang Ming was looking at them through the clone, he could feel a bolt of heat shot up from his lower abdomen to his brain.

“Even if they just stand there and do nothing, they could easily seduce one’s mind. It’s no wonder that Mountain Master Tian Yuan told me that some of the people in the Heavenly Realm like to keep some female demons.”

With that thought in his mind, he activated the Great Catastrophes Technique and wiped out all the female demons here.

After that, he flew into the sky and turned to look at the palace where Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate and the others were at. Without any hesitation, he activated the jade amulet in his hand.

In a blink of an eye, an immense power poured forward and turned into a yellow hand. At the same time, it triggered the endless power of order in the universe.

The mountains within hundreds of millions of kilometers collapsed, and billions of demons vaporized instantly. The ground sank, and the hand descended on the palace in the distance.

Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate and the others were discussing what they should do about Jiang Ming when they sensed the commotion outside. When they came out of the meeting hall, the first thing that came into their vision was the big hand that was dropping on them.

“That’s the Heavenly Emperor’s Hand of Heaven!” Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate shouted, “Qian Yang, you vile man! As the Heavenly Emperor as well as the Great Heavenly Venerate, how could you step forward and attack us? Not only that, but you’ve used such a powerful skill on us! Guys, let’s work together and hold it back! If not, all of us are going to die here today!

“The Great Demon Venerate, hurry up and come out to save us!” Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate shouted in despair.

Bam!

The Hand of Heaven fell on them and sent all six Demon Venerates into the ground.

The demonic palace that symbolized the ruler of the Abyss collapsed, and the billions of formations were shattered.

The other experts from the Abyss that lived on the mountain couldn’t escape their fates and got buried deep into the ground as well.

What was even more terrifying was that there was a hole showing the other side of the void in the deepest part as well as the hardest part of the Abyss.

The Abyss had been punctured.
