"Who exactly triggered the Heavenly Punishment? Let's go see." The Evil Worm King condensed a duplicate and descended upon Mu Chen's location.

"Anyway, joining in on the excitement shouldn't pose any risk, let's just watch from a distance," the outsiders muttered among themselves, descending upon Mu Chen's location.

There were also some powerful figures, like Xiao Yaozi, Ancient God, Divine Envoy, and Holy Daughter. Of course, aside from those who seldom appeared, there were also some mysterious people. What they were searching for or trying to obtain, nobody knew.

At Mu Chen's place, he felt the oppressive power of the rules, surrounded by space and rolling thunder, his face extremely heavy, with a somewhat worried expression.

"Come on then! It's just Heavenly Punishment. I fear neither Heaven nor Earth, and I'm not afraid of you, Heavenly Punishment," Mu Chen cursed angrily.

However, the next moment, the terrifying black thunder immediately descended, moving so fast it was despairing. Mu Chen didn't even have time to gather his strength to resist and was directly blasted away by the black thunder, leaving a deep pit.

"Damn, block it." Mu Chen cursed as colorless energy, black energy, Chaos Divine Power, and Martial Arts Realm all surged out to block this Power of Heavenly Punishment.

Fortunately, the first thunder wasn't too terrifying, and because Mu Chen had a strong body, he wasn't injured by the attack, and completely blocked it.

But the second thunder was even more terrifying, fiercely striking Mu Chen's power, pushing him back with thunder power, though he barely managed to hold on.

The third Heavenly Punishment made Mu Chen spit out a mouthful of blood in shock, stunned by the power of this Heavenly Punishment which exceeded his imagination.

The fourth Heavenly Punishment descended, and Mu Chen could no longer fully resist. His energy was shattered by the terrifying Heavenly Punishment power, and the impact on his chest sent him flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The fifth energy was even more terrifying, directly piercing through Mu Chen's belly. If not for Mu Chen gathering his strength and dodging the lethal strike, this Heavenly Punishment energy would have destroyed his heart, leaving him seriously injured.

"Husband."

"Hang in there, kid!"

"Master, keep it up."

In that moment, everyone in the Emperor's group expressed their worries.

On the other hand, in the Evil Worm King's group of powerful figures, they each sneered, not expecting that the Evil God had triggered the Heavenly Punishment and was now seriously injured. Murderous intent surged within them, driving them mad.

"More to come?" Mu Chen spat out blood and shouted towards the Heavenly Punishment.

But just as Mu Chen finished speaking, the seventh Heavenly Punishment arrived instantly, with frightening power, directly aiming at Mu Chen's head.

"Block it." Mu Chen knew from the start that the next Heavenly Punishment would come, so he immediately gathered powerful energies to block it.

However, this time was worse; Mu Chen's chest was pierced directly, though his heart remained unharmed. But he was left critically injured.

A strong person suffering serious injuries, the gathered strength, speed no longer like before. Many hoped to see a strong person badly hurt, as that was when killing was easiest.

Fortunately, after the seventh Heavenly Punishment descended, there was no eighth. Mu Chen at the cost of grievous injuries managed to break through to the Divine Return Realm.

For a moment, Mu Chen's body in the Sealess Space became a golden endless passage. Inside that passage seemed to be the legendary descent of a god. This realm was called the Divine Return Realm, where energy transformed into golden energy, no longer nihilistic energy. Golden energy symbolized higher-level energy. Mu Chen's strength experienced earth-shaking changes. However, having just broken through the realm, the energy of the Sealess Realm couldn't complete the energy transformation immediately. At this moment, Mu Chen was at his weakest after a breakthrough.

"Heaven helps me, even without you, Evil God, who can stop me from killing you?" The Evil Worm King struck immediately, spitting out horrific corrosive power towards Mu Chen.

"Devour," the Devouring Qilin roared angrily. Daring to ambush, it opened its gigantic mouth without hesitation, moving to slay the Evil Worm King.

In two days, the Devouring Qilin progressed at a similar incredible speed, although it hadn't broken through to the Divine Return Realm, its strength reached the peak of the Sealess Realm, much stronger than before. So even as the Evil Worm King approached, the Devouring Qilin didn't fear, blocking the attack.

The Evil Worm King hadn't expected the Devouring Qilin to directly devour its power, let alone destroy the terrifying chains aimed at it with ease. Killing Mu Chen was impossible.

"I'm up." Xiao Yaozi was itching to move, no matter what, Mu Chen destroyed his body, and he had to avenge. Therefore, he wanted to kill Mu Chen, irrespective of whether Mu Chen was a defender of Earth. In short, Xiao Yaozi was nearly mad.

"Master, you're not qualified to touch," the Xuanwu Divine Beast roared, unleashing terrifying power towards Xiao Yaozi to block his attack.

Having obtained a terrifying elixir, the Xuanwu Divine Beast broke through to a Heavenly Realm beyond Divine Return, its power completely reaching a level close to that of the Devouring Qilin. Plus, with Xuanwu's defense and spatial transcendence, it directly clashed with Xiao Yaozi.

Xiao Yaozi hadn't expected the Xuanwu Divine Beast to be so formidable, countless swords were sent flying without any effect, blocked by terrifying power.

"Seems like I've arrived late, but it seems just in time," at this point, three people arrived, namely Hera, Athena, and Divine Envoy.

"Hera, betrayal, you dare to show up, courting death?" Liu Yuxi's killing intent surged as she spoke.

"Survival of the fittest, it's the law of the jungle. We're just doing what we think is right, isn't that what they call differing paths?" Athena said.

"Makes sense, but a traitor is always a traitor. Using us, you really have some skills!" The Emperor's killing intent surged, immensely frustrated.

"Words are useless, the Evil God must die, if he lives, we'll be suppressed forever," Hera shouted, unleashing a divine power that reached the legendary Fourth Degree Divine Power, instantly attacking Mu Chen.

"I'll kill you." The Emperor swung his sword light, attacking Hera.

"It seems you're not qualified enough," Hera shouted, and terrifying power clashed with the Emperor, pushing him back, proving no match.

"Then let's add me." Su Fei cursed, instantly joining the Emperor, planning to fight Hera together.

"You two do have some qualification, then come on!"

"Kill."

And so, the two of them violently battled Hera...

"Seems like the strong ones have been blocked, let me see if anyone else can help you, Evil God," Athena said, then immediately took action.

"Don't forget I'm here too," the Sky Poison Toad roared. Its realm also reached the terrifying Heavenly Realm level, blocking Athena. The toxic liquid it sprayed was too much for Athena.

"Fourth Degree Divine Power, Power of Time," Athena dodged instantly, gathering power to attack the Sky Poison Toad.
