Chapter 137
It seemed that this display of power was meant to be imposing.
With this strike, there was indeed a sense of impending doom, as if the very land of the Divine Continent was about to sink, causing the secret realm to tremble violently.
Bang—
The tangible shadow of the dragon demon was forcefully suppressed under this overwhelming force, as if a mountain had fallen upon it.
“Stabilize the Wind!”
This hammer strike, with its immense weight, pinned Han Zhen down, rendering him immobile for a brief moment.
Rip—
A surge of wind and thunder erupted, suddenly darkening the space around them.
Li Mo’s hair stood on end, bathed in the fury of the storm.
In his hand, the Panjie Meteor Hammer crackled with arcs of thunder and fire, making a sharp, snapping sound.
Boom—
This strike of thunder completely enveloped Han Zhen.
One hammer after another, the Seven Stabilizations of Heaven and Earth were unleashed in succession.
In an instant, Han Zhen and Yin Huaxuan found themselves unable to lift their heads.
The world around them had lost its color, teetering on the brink of collapse, as if the heavens were about to turn upside down. Beneath the thunderous chaos, it seemed as if the secret realm itself was crying out in anguish.
.....
The crowd below trembled, their scalps tingling.
It was terrifying.
Could it be that power, when it reaches a certain level, can create a vortex?
Tie Qi: “........So, Ouyang, why does Li Lao want to practice swordsmanship?”
“Beats me...”
Ouyang, who was busy painting, cautiously glanced up.
Then he carefully sketched the figure onto the paper.
It was already a scene of crumbling ruins.
Ying Bing knew she shouldn’t be distracted at this moment.
Yet she couldn’t help but open her eyes.
“Stabilize the Universe!”
This was the final strike of the Seven Stabilizations of Heaven and Earth.
Used alone, its power wasn’t particularly strong.
As a finishing move, it required the buildup of the previous six strikes to unleash its full destructive potential.
Li Mo’s hairpin had long since shattered.
He stood tall between heaven and earth, his black hair billowing wildly.
Buzz—
The Panjie Meteor Hammer was now completely engulfed in the flames of retribution.
Heavenly punishment, the world turned upside down.
“Dodge!”
Both Han Zhen and Yin Huaxuan understood.
This strike couldn’t be taken head-on.
They used every trick in the book to evade.
To their surprise, they found that this monstrous strike was surprisingly easy to dodge.
The crowd: “??”
They were nearly breathless.
Was the culmination of all that buildup... a miss?
“It’s over.”
“He planned it this way from the start...”
Ying Bing let out a quiet sigh of relief.
Crack—
A hammer fell.
The dark sky, like a pitch-black curtain, echoed with a sound of unbearable strain, followed by a rapid spread of fine cracks.
A fragment shattered.
Sunlight from the outside poured in, breaking through countless shadows.
Ying Bing lifted her head, her sparkling eyes illuminated by the figure of someone.
The young man stood amidst the heavens.
Bathed in the light of the sky.

Chapter 138: Feedback from Parents
Outside Hongfeng Mountain.
The entire mountain range was in turmoil, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
“Is the ground shaking? Qinghe County has never experienced an earthquake before.”
“It’s the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm that’s in trouble!”
“Could it be that this secret realm is about to collapse!?”
“The Blood Phoenix Secret Realm has existed for so long; why now?”
“Could it be that someone has obtained its legacy, causing it to shatter?”
....
Around the peaks, the crowd was in chaos.
Onlookers scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in all directions.
Earthquakes and landslides are natural disasters that not everyone has the strength to withstand.
Boom—
The rumbling grew louder.
The energy from the secret realm had already leaked out.
Figures appeared in the air, each releasing their own domains.
“Everyone, it seems this secret realm is about to break apart.”
The white-browed elder from Hengyun Sword City stood at the forefront.
Among those present, he was the only one at the fifth realm of the outer scene.
Qian Bufan felt the leaking energy and squinted his chubby face:
“I don’t know what kind of anomaly is happening.”
“Saving people is the priority. I hope everyone can set aside their differences and help rescue those in need. What do you say?”
The collapse of the secret realm was beyond the capacity of those in the Inner Breath realm or even the God Observation realm to endure.
As his words fell, a money tree appeared in Qian Bufan’s domain, with coins that looked almost real.
They jingled and swayed as they wrapped around him, propelling him into the secret realm.
Before entering, he glanced into the distance.
It seemed he made eye contact with someone.
The others didn’t hesitate for long.
One by one, those in the Inner and Outer realms employed their skills and rushed into the crumbling secret realm.
.....
In Qinghe County City.
The tremors and roars reached here as well.
The crowd was thrown into a panic, fearing that the city would collapse along with everything else.
Meanwhile, in a certain house in the west alley.
“Sir, the earth dragon has turned over; we might not have time to escape.”
The elegantly dressed middle-aged woman, her youthful beauty still faintly visible, was now tearful and resolute:
“Even if I die, I want to die with you.”
“Don’t worry, Qin’er, I’m here.”
“We won’t be separated even in death.”
The middle-aged man, embraced by the woman, stood tall and proud, his ruggedly handsome features making him look like a true man of the world.
The two seemed to be enacting a tragic love story before the end of the world.
Nearby.
Xue Jing: “.....”
Elder Su: “.....”
Elder Shen from Ruyi Peak: “.....”
Shangguan Wencang: “......”
Shang Wu: “Zzz...”
Setting aside Shang Wu, who was sound asleep and undisturbed even by the tremors, the rest felt rather superfluous, as if they were being ignored.
No... it didn’t seem like they were being ignored.
They had become part of the play.
Boom—
At that moment.
Shangguan Wencang gently lifted his foot and stomped the ground.
Strangely enough, the tremors and roars vanished instantly, as if they had never existed.
Not just in the Li residence.
The entire Qinghe County City fell silent.
Once the silence settled, the middle-aged couple was still there, holding each other and weeping.
“Ahem, Da Long...”
Xue Jing’s lips twitched; this was his former disciple. He shot a glance: “The sect leader is here.”
The middle-aged man, called Li Da Long, paused for a moment before awkwardly chuckling:
“Sorry, sorry, my wife and I were caught up in our feelings, it was hard to control ourselves...”
Xue Jing: “.....”
Faced with the puzzled gazes of the other elders, his face flushed slightly, and he sighed.
He wanted to clarify that Li Da Long’s dramatic personality had nothing to do with him!
“We should be going now.”
Shangguan Wencang said softly, hands clasped behind his back.

On the other side.
Inside the secret realm.
It truly felt as if the heavens were falling and the earth was crumbling.
They all wanted to escape, but there were no exits in this space; there was nowhere to run.
Upward?
The battle above was still ongoing.
Downward, the portal they had come through had long since vanished!
Above them.
Li Mo’s aura was rapidly diminishing.
The power of the world was temporarily unusable, and the Blood-Bathed Battle Soul Talisman had reached its limit.
Little Bao, his senior brother, crawled out from his dantian, his little face pale as he lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
He could only muster the last bit of his will to retract the Panjie Meteor Hammer.
Then he collapsed onto the ground, letting the overwhelming weakness wash over his entire being.
“You brat, you’ve ruined my century-long plan!”
Han Zhen’s expression was twisted with rage; this body, animated by the bones of the Master of the Profound, had aged like decayed wood.
This clone could no longer be preserved.
All he could do was kill the opponent to vent his anger.
Yin Huaxuan stood still, and after receiving Han Zhen’s signal, he crushed a stone seal, releasing a wisp of pure black energy.
A sharp sound echoed through the sky.
This was a call to summon those from the Demon Summoning Sect.
Meanwhile, Han Zhen, filled with hatred, directed his final strike at Li Mo.
Once again, it was a palm strike imbued with profound energy.
This was also a secret technique, activated by the remains of the Master of the Profound, its might terrifying.
Previously, when it clashed with the Panjie Meteor Hammer, it had only been slightly inferior.
Now, Li Mo could not withstand it, no matter what.
However.
Little Li remained completely unfazed, even managing a smile.
Just moments ago, he had already heard the system’s notification.
“Cut!”
The cold voice fell to the ground.
