Chapter 256: No One Can Stop Them

“Gugu…”
Long Tianhong and that high-ranking Void God of the Wan Si clan were now with wide eyes and slightly open mouths, while a gurgling sound emanated from deep within their throats.
The two of them, along with the eight hundred Void Gods behind them, stared blankly at the nearly three thousand armored divine generals behind Chen Xiao, not knowing what to say.
These nearly three thousand armored divine generals all emitted intense fluctuations of the Void God laws, equivalent to those of mid-level Void Gods!
In fact, more than four hundred of them emitted Void God laws that were only slightly weaker than those of the high-ranking Void God of the Wan Si clan.
Yet, even these four hundred armored divine generals were high-ranking Void Gods!
All of these two thousand eight hundred Void Gods were puppets crafted by Chen Xiao from the corpses of vicious spirits he had hunted deep in the world of supernatural abilities.
These puppets were different from those created by Fu Yun before. They were not just ordinary puppets but weapons in human form, refined through the Void God laws of the Main God’s Space. They could even use their own Void God laws to unleash Void God domains.
Their combat strength was even greater than that of Void God spirits of the same rank.
Chen Xiao had been buying time just to allow these vicious spirit puppets to be fully crafted.
Long Tianhong swallowed hard. Even though he was a peak Void God, a being just half a step away from the realm of gods, seeing so many Void Gods made his heart tremble.
What was more, there were three peak Void Gods beside Chen Xiao.
In comparison, the low-ranking Void Gods of the Wan Si clan behind Long Tianhong were not even good enough to fill a crack in their shoes.
“Ancestors of the Long family, and elders of the Wan Si clan, I can offer you two choices,” Chen Xiao said with a smile, looking at Long Tianhong and that high-ranking Void God of the Wan Si clan. “If all the members of the Long family commit suicide and return the Remnant Heaven Map, I will spare these Void Gods of the Wan Si clan. But since their Void Gods injured my subordinates, they must provide ten thousand spirit stone mines to redeem them.”
Chen Xiao spoke in a calm tone, as if discussing something trivial.
The Wan Si clan seemed to be a clan of guardians. If Chen Xiao wanted to destroy these Void Gods, he needed to think carefully—offending the guardians would bring immediate trouble to him.
Killing a genius at the domain level was different from killing eight hundred Void Gods.
Chen Xiao could use these eight hundred Void Gods to demand ten thousand spirit stone mines. Although it was somewhat excessive, it was still reasonable.
Chen Xiao stood firm in his decision.
But if he dared to kill these Void Gods, Qianhun Island would likely be destroyed by the next day.
“Ask my people to commit suicide?” Long Tianhong narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
“Three thousand Void Gods… Do you think Void Gods are common street vegetables?” said Wan Si Xulan, the high-ranking Void God of the Wan Si clan. “Trying to threaten us with these three thousand shells? That’s pure delusion!”
“Three thousand shells?”

Above the sky, the white-haired elder shook his head slightly. “These guys, though not living beings but rather puppets-like entities, possess a Void God Law that’s even more refined than that of higher-level Void Gods… What exactly are they? Human-shaped Void God artifacts?”
“Hm? Are those guys descendants of Wan Si the Old Man? How is this matter connected to him again… Eh? That Long Tianhong also has a complicated background; he even has the bloodline of that ancient dragon… Well, but Chen Xiao has the protection of the great immortal elders behind him, so those old guys probably won’t dare to act rashly.”
A faint glimmer appeared in the white-haired elder’s eyes, as if he was weighing something.
“If they’re just shells, you’ll find out if you try… But I’ve given you a chance… It’s just that you didn’t cherish it.”
Chen Xiao had already resolved to kill.
Long Tianhong and Wan Si Xulan exchanged a glance. They too had only experienced a brief moment of shock, but no matter what, they couldn’t believe that Chen Xiao could bring out three thousand strong warriors, all above mid-level Void Gods, at once.
Even the Wan Si clan, a family of guardians, couldn’t mobilize such a force so quickly.
The idea that Chen Xiao’s power was stronger than that of the Wan Si clan was something they would never believe, even if forced to.
The only explanation was that these so-called Void Gods were all shells.
In fact, there were countless vicious Void God monsters deep in the world of supernatural abilities, as numerous as cockroaches in the mundane world. However, the secret technique for crafting these monster puppets belonged exclusively to the Heavenly Dragon Palace; no one else, not even gods, possessed it.
It was probably the first time such monster puppets had appeared on a large scale in the universe.
“Who refuses to drink toast must drink punishment! Kill them!”
A cold glint flashed in Chen Xiao’s eyes as he suddenly shouted.
Instantly, the Void God monster puppets behind him released one after another Void God domains, stacking them in the air.
Including Gui Gui, Mu Mu, Shui Yue Ying, as well as Ling Yan, the newly appeared new divine disciple hiding in the shadows, all released their own Void God domains.
Boom!
This space was immediately sealed off by layers of Void God domains, forming a true world within.
With over 2,800 Void God domains stacked together, it had formed something akin to a real world, even beginning to develop world power.
After all, world power was also a kind of law—a law that only true gods could control.
At this moment, those over 2,800 Void Gods, guided by the Void God Law formed in the main god’s space, actually manifested something resembling a real world.
“Amazing… World power. Even if it were the other three thousand, even peak-level Void Gods, couldn’t gather even a trace of it. Yet these over 2,800 Void God puppets can actually gather world power?”
The white-haired elder above the sky was momentarily stunned. It wasn’t surprising that he could wield world power soon after, but applying it to Void Gods was truly astonishing to him.
“Keep them all!”

Chen Xiao let out a fierce roar. The Virtual God Puppet behind him, upon receiving the command, produced a Virtual Divine Artifact in its hands, with strands of Virtual God laws swirling around it, unleashing the most devastating attack possible.
“Over eight hundred Virtual God laws, including those of higher-ranking Virtual Gods and even the peak-level laws of the Long family’s ancestor—don’t let them go to waste. After absorbing them, the power of my Origin Spirit Fire will increase once again. With the third piece of the Remnant Sky Map, I will be invincible even among gods!”
A cold glint flashed in Chen Xiao’s eyes. “Die all!”
Boom!
Over two thousand eight hundred attacks surged toward everyone in this world.
“Everyone, help me!”
Suddenly, Long Tianhong shouted. Above his head, a dragon-shaped phantom emerged. Empowered by Long Tianhong’s strength, this phantom gradually expanded into a true golden dragon.
The golden dragon let out a thunderous roar, its golden light filling the entire space, barely holding back those two thousand eight hundred attacks.
“Descendants of the Wan Si clan, use all your strength to assist Long Tianhong in activating this divine artifact!”
Upon seeing this, Wan Si Xulan also summoned a divine artifact from his body to protect himself before shouting. The eight hundred Virtual Gods behind them sacrificed their own Virtual God laws and various attributes’ powers frantically, pouring them into the golden dragon above Long Tianhong’s head.
“Is this an Origin Spirit Divine Artifact?”
Chen Xiao’s pupils narrowed. This golden dragon wasn’t a true celestial dragon but rather a manifestation formed from an Origin Spirit Divine Artifact. Empowered by the eight hundred Virtual God laws, the entire dragon radiated dazzling golden light, moving through the air and breaking apart each of the attacks launched by those Virtual Gods, protecting those below it.
A faint golden blood flowed from Long Tianhong’s mouth. Although he had the strength of the eight hundred Virtual Gods to forcefully activate the artifact, it still caused him great pain. Virtual Gods were just that—Virtual Gods. To fully unleash the power of a divine artifact, true divine power was required. The strength within the Virtual Gods was far too insufficient to activate it.
“Attack using the true form of the Virtual Divine Artifact,” Chen Xiao said calmly.
The fierce puppetry earlier had relied on activating the Virtual Divine Artifact to release energy-based attacks. If the true form of the artifact were used, the effect would be different.
Following Chen Xiao’s orders, the two thousand eight hundred Virtual Gods raised their Virtual Divine Artifacts simultaneously. These artifacts were all taken from the treasure vaults in the Supreme God’s space—chosen by the Supreme God, they were by no means ordinary.
Boom!
The two thousand eight hundred Virtual Divine Artifacts transformed into streams of light, charging toward the golden dragon below.
“Argh!”
The golden dragon, seemingly possessing its own consciousness, let out a pitiful cry. Its scales were shattered and scattered as life energy, dissipating into the air.
Pfft!
Long Tianhong could no longer hold back; he spat out blood. Cracks appeared all over his body, looking terrifying.

And that golden dragon artifact, deprived of its power, flew back directly, forming a golden artifact in the shape of a dragon.
“Hmph, so now it’s just an empty shell?”
Chen Xiao sneered and said, “Kill them all—leave none behind!”
Boom!
But in the next moment, this space world that had just formed shattered violently.
The virtual god puppets behind Chen Xiao were also shaken; their golden armor shattered abruptly, revealing their lifeless, ashen cores.
Gui Gui, Mu Mu, Shui Yue Ying, and Ling Yan all frowned slightly, their faces turning pale—clearly they had suffered minor injuries.
“Kid, show mercy when you can. Such ruthless extermination doesn’t seem like a good idea.”
Suddenly, a calm voice sounded. A middle-aged man in green robes slowly appeared above Long Tianhong and the others.
“Who are you, senior? Why interfere in this matter?”
Chen Xiao frowned slightly as he looked at the middle-aged man. This man gave him an extremely terrifying feeling—waves of divine pressure were constantly being emitted, trying to suppress Chen Xiao’s mind.
“You don’t need to know who I am. I’ve taken care of these people,” the middle-aged man said in an unyielding tone.
“You’ve taken care of them?” Chen Xiao frowned. “Are you from the Wan Si clan?”
“I’m not from the Wan Si clan. I’m just acting on the request of an old friend,” the man in green said. “You can recall your subordinates.”
“I said these people must die. No one can stop me, not even the gods.”
Chen Xiao disliked this feeling greatly. He raised his head, and a beam of void light shot out from his hand, piercing through Long Tianhong’s skull.
Seeing a true god descend, Long Tianhong and the others thought they were saved and breathed a sigh of relief. Moreover, Long Tianhong himself suffered severe backlash and serious injuries; he had no time to react.
Even though they were just one step away from a god, it was too late to become alert again after relaxing their minds.
Furthermore, the middle-aged man in green robes, as a god, never expected that a mere human insect would dare to act recklessly in front of him.
Swish!
With a crisp sound, Long Tianhong’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Long Tianhong, the founder of the ancient martial arts Long family, a peak virtual god just one step away from the realm of gods—perished!
Chen Xiao’s mind moved slightly, and Long Tianhong’s corpse was immediately taken into his main divine space.
“You!”
The man in green robes flew into a rage.
“I said these people must die,” Chen Xiao said, ignoring the man’s anger. “But since a senior has arrived, I’ll give you face. The people from the Wan Si clan can stay, but if you want them to leave, you must pay with a hundred thousand spirit stone veins.”

“2,800 Void God Puppets exploding at the same time—even a true god would surely be severely injured. If 2,800 Fiendish Spirit Puppets are sacrificed, I wonder if this god can be preserved… Having absorbed the laws of a complete god, I wonder what form the Origin Spirit Fire will evolve into…” Chen Xiao kept making calculations in his mind.

“You’re seeking death!” The middle-aged man in green robes, upon hearing Chen Xiao’s words, acted immediately. His palm, seemingly vast enough to cover the sky, rushed toward Chen Xiao’s body.

Boom!

But just then, as Chen Xiao was about to order all the Fiendish Spirit Puppets to explode, a large white hand suddenly appeared out of thin air, pushing the middle-aged man’s palm away.

“Li Mo, as a god, how dare you disregard your status and attack a mere Origin Realm ability user?” In the sky, the white-haired elder finally intervened. His body slowly descended and stood in front of Chen Xiao.

“Kid, I know your plans, but you underestimate gods too much. Not to mention 2,800 such puppets—even if 21,000 of them exploded at once, they wouldn’t be able to harm a god in the slightest.” The white-haired elder’s voice echoed in Chen Xiao’s mind.
