Chapter 682: The Piercer Shatters the Firmament (Thanks to "My Heart Remains 210" for the Alliance Master donation)

Looking at the domineering Ciji ahead, and the ten schools' Deity Transformation experts eyeing him hungrily from all sides, Divine Lord Lianshu's first reaction was naturally still to flee.

With a mere movement of his divine sense, he summoned the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Safety Escape Shuttle.

This top-tier escape treasure darted to his side like floating light and passing shadows, yet in the next moment was swept up successively by more than ten beams of divine light.

Seal! Confiscate! Detain...

For a moment, characters of various colors flashed, and the Nine Heavens Shuttle had been forcibly detained by the many Deity Transformation experts present.

Under the suppression of wave after wave of Deity Transformation power, this divine shuttle seemed ready to shatter into four pieces and disintegrate directly into the hands of various different Deity Transformation Divine Lords.

And this was naturally within Divine Lord Lianshu's consideration; using the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Safety Escape Shuttle to attract attention, his figure moved again, his entire body of Dharma skeletons surging, unleashing dozens of movement techniques, martial arts, and Daoist spells in succession, already attempting to run away for the third time.

But in the next moment, accompanied by crackling explosion sounds, the many Deity Transformation experts on site acted once again.

It was seen that various treasures and Dharma skeletons constantly exploded from Divine Lord Lianshu's body.

Beams of divine light were like a swarm of locusts crossing the territory, stripping Divine Lord Lianshu clean in the blink of an eye.

Divine Lord Nielei of Tianmo University accepted Divine Lord Lianshu's right arm, speaking indifferently: "Evil creature, how much deficit did your Finance Department cause Tianmo University? How many bad debts were left? Today, we shall take one of your arms to offset the debt first."

Divine Lord Ciji glanced at the other party; she knew Nielei was originally Tianmo's Vice President, an old-school Deity Transformation disciple responsible for managing the school's research tasks, with profound foundations in artifact refinement.

Zhang Yu also remembered the other party's name, because they had served as a judge in the Artifact Refinement Design Competition, hosting the competition for his generation.

There was also Bloodfall Divine Lord of Youming University on the other side; Zhang Yu remembered the other party was also one of the judges at that time.

It was seen that Bloodfall Divine Lord tightly grasped one of Lianshu's feet, saying: "Everyone rest assured, I will keep his foot first, absolutely won't let him run away."

At the same time, on the other side, Cangshi Divine Lord from Tianyao University said: "Ciji, you rest assured suppressing the sun, leave this evil beast to us."

Divine Lord Ciji glanced at the other party, knowing that among this pile of things, only this Cangshi Divine Lord was the most unscrupulous.

She thought inwardly: "Tianyao University so far has only this one Deity Transformation expert, Cangshi Divine Lord, occupying all of Tianyao University's resources with the power of a single Deity Transformation. From this point alone, one can know how greedy this mother dragon is, and how narrow-minded."

After being suppressed, Divine Lord Lianshu still wanted to speak, but someone directly blocked his entire set of meridians, locking up his flesh and blood.

His consciousness sent out a distress signal through the Dark Spirit Realm.

But could only hear intermittent responses: "Lianshu... this round they got the jump on us... now saving you costs too high... too unprofitable."

"You should commit suicide... rest assured... if you resurrect we will cover you..."

The other party continued speaking: "If you don't commit suicide... your remaining assets will all belong to us."

Divine Lord Lianshu sighed in his heart, the Yuan Spirit in his sea of consciousness gradually splitting into four pieces.

Although the surrounding many Deity Transformation Divine Lords tried their best to stop him, they still could not prevent Divine Lord Lianshu's consciousness from completely disappearing from the sea of consciousness.

Divine Lord Ciji was not surprised by this; capturing a Deity Transformation expert was not difficult, but stopping such a Deity Transformation expert who had condensed a Yuan Spirit, able to freely control the Yuan Spirit and self-consciousness, from committing suicide by extinguishing his own consciousness, that was too difficult.

And with Divine Lord Lianshu's suicide, the surrounding Spirit Realm fluctuated violently.

Several Deity Transformation Divine Lords skilled in talismans cast spells one after another, wanting to stop the Dark Spirit Realm from receiving Divine Lord Lianshu.

At the same time, in space unknown how far apart, several Evil Gods' gazes crossed the barriers of layers 5, 4, 3, looking from afar, terrifying will crossed the Dark Spirit Realm, descending towards this battlefield.

Zhang Yu felt the Spirit Realm signals around him completely cut off for several minutes.

Not knowing what fierce struggle both sides had undergone, immediately after Zhang Yu heard Tianyao University's Cangshi Divine Lord sigh: "You few are no good, we have detained his physical body, how could you fail to stop his soul from escaping through the Dark Spirit Realm?"

The Deity Transformation expert casting spells snorted coldly, saying: "The Spirit Realm power of those higher-level Evil Gods on layer 5 is extraordinary, the Dark Spirit Realm arranged now even connects the Kunxu of layers 2, 3, 4, 5, already deeply rooted."

"Wanting to stop them within the Dark Spirit Realm, I'm afraid it requires a Grade Three or above Orthodox God to act. Moreover, the technology of the Spirit Realm receiving the dead is exclusive to Orthodox Gods, we understand it not deeply."

"If you want to annihilate them... better consider methods of the Material Realm."

And with this death of Divine Lord Lianshu, Zhang Pianpian cultivating in the Taiqing Realm suddenly focused her gaze, seeing the Soul-Guiding Pool shine brightly...

At the same time, many users watching this battle live broadcast in the Dark Spirit Realm discovered that the broadcast stopped directly at the moment the spatial barrier shattered, all viewers didn't know what happened next.

"Why did the broadcast stop?"

"What exactly happened? Won't Ciji actually succeed?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could Divine Lord Lianshu lose?"

Then soon someone discovered although the Dark Spirit Realm broadcast was closed, the Spirit Realm broadcast had already opened. "Quick quick quick! Spirit Realm broadcast is open! Can see all ten schools' Deity Transformation experts acting!"

So in the blink of an eye, a large number of Dark Spirit Realm users jumped to the Spirit Realm, wanting to watch the follow-up of this battle.

But upon entering, they found advertisement after advertisement appearing, on average everyone had to watch over 10 minutes of advertisements before seeing the follow-up content, seeing the scene of Divine Lord Lianshu running away three times being captured one by one, finally committing suicide...

At the same time, Divine Lord Ciji had already led the many Deity Transformation experts to begin sweeping Xunri Cunwu, cleaning up the battlefield, seizing supplies.

Supplies used by Divine Lord Lianshu for Deity Transformation cultivation were gathered before everyone.

Divine Lord Nielei spoke indifferently: "Pity, that Evil God assisting Lianshu... was not his true body stationed here, probably seeing the situation wrong, disconnected the Dark Spirit Realm connection immediately."

Ciji was not surprised by this; long ago when fighting the other party in the previous battle, she knew the Xiang God's main body was not on the battlefield.

After all, the other party relied on the Spirit Realm and Dark Spirit Realm to fight, bringing the main body onto the battlefield besides creating weaknesses for oneself, had no meaning whatsoever.

After Divine Lord Ciji successfully received Xunri Cunwu, the many Deity Transformation experts successively surrounded her, eyes burning staring at her, beginning to inquire about Ciji's method of breaking the space blockade.

Facing everyone's curiosity, Divine Lord Ciji simply said indifferently: "In the past 8 months, I repeatedly watched Dao Qiankun's combat footage on the award stage, analyzing every scene frame by frame, continuously comprehending space technology from it, finally achieving today's accomplishment, refining such a World-Breaking Piercer."

While speaking, Divine Lord Ciji was also communicating with Zhang Yu: "Good disciple, can you do another shot?"

After receiving Zhang Yu's reply, Divine Lord Ciji's gaze focused, looking at the many Divine Lords present, speaking domineeringly: "Everyone, today I will break open the firmament, future between layers 2 and 3, there will be no more barriers."

It was seen Divine Lord Ciji soared into the sky, beams of Deity Transformation divine light followed closely behind.

In the blink of an eye everyone had broken through the cloud sky, getting closer and closer to the third-layer world visible after piercing heaven and earth.

But an invisible spatial barrier had already blocked everyone's path.

"Break!"

With Divine Lord Ciji's low shout, the World-Breaking Piercer fiercely collided against the barrier before the eyes.

At the same time, Divine Lord Ciji had also activated the Immortal Gate Daoist Spell Great Sun Glazed Pure Fire, sweeping around the drill, the pure fire wrapping the entire drill burning everything attacking from outside, also blocking the peeping, insight, detection of surrounding many Deity Transformation experts...

And inside the flame drill, Zhang Yu once again activated the power of Kunlun in Palm and Descendant of Immortals, palms pressed together, then like transforming into a black hole, crazily devouring everything before the drill.

Accompanied by violent consumption of internal mana, Zhang Yu this time felt even more violent recoil coming.

As if hit by a continent, rolling over him.

With Zhang Yu's body strength at this moment, it actually shook him until tendons snapped and bones broke, internal organs burst, instantly becoming a bloody person.

But at the same time, a terrifying loud noise sounded in the sky.

Immediately like a transparent glass covering the sky was smashed alive, then crazily shattered, exploding a huge hollow in everyone's eyes.

Divine Lord Nielei of Tianmo University looked at this scene, mind greatly moved, gazing at Divine Lord Ciji's back under the horizon, thinking inwardly: "Ciji... she actually walked to this step?"

Divine Lord Bloodfall of Youming University gazed at Ciji, expression solemn, thinking inwardly: "Must make Ciji hand over space technology ASAP, developed jointly by ten schools is the way."

Divine Lord Cangshi of Tianyao University looked at the heaven and earth of Kunxu Layer 3, instantly eyes brightened, revealing thick greed, thinking inwardly: "Good good good, this time finally can fight upwards, rob to our heart's content."

Then she looked at the World-Breaking Piercer in Divine Lord Ciji's hand, thinking: "This treasure looks destined with me at first glance."

But in the next moment, in the heartsick, worried, nervous gazes of many Deity Transformation experts, it was seen the World-Breaking Piercer in Divine Lord Ciji's palm exploded with thin cracks, seeming ready to completely shatter in the next moment.

Only heard Divine Lord Ciji sigh: "This World-Breaking Piercer is after all my initial attempt to refine, still has extremely many deficiencies, after using twice it is already completely damaged, hard to use again."

Divine Lord Nie Lian spoke with eyes burning bright, "Perhaps we should assist you in the refinement together?"

Divine Lord Ci Ji swept a glance over the crowd, catching every look of desire and greed within their gazes, then let out a cold sneer. "You wish to help me? I fear your skills are not yet up to such a task."

"Surveying the talents of the Ten Schools, at present, only I possess the ability to forge the Realm-Breaking Spike."

"Should you wish to offer support, simply contribute funds and materials."

"As for the expenses for this Realm-Breaking Spike, I have already forwarded the bill to each of you..."

Though the multitude of Deity Transformations heard these words with reluctance, they could find no grounds to contradict Ci Ji, who had just shattered the heavens.

Dismissing Nie Lian's proposal with a single remark, Ci Ji waved his massive hand, pointing toward the Third Layer of Kunxu. "Friends," he proclaimed, "since the heavens are breached, the hour of our counterstrike has come."
