Behold, countless fragments burned in the sky before crashing into the earth, just like falling stars, plunging endless regions of the Primordial Heaven Realm into absolute destruction.
No one knew how many great mountains and towering peaks were struck by the corpse fragments, instantly turning to dust and smoke.
What's more, the corpse fragments contained an immeasurable dark power. Wherever they fell, the surrounding territories would descend into darkness. Whether human, demon, or any other race, all would be corrupted into demonic creatures, causing people's expressions to change.
But at the same time, this was also a heaven-sent opportunity.
Whoever obtained them, as long as they could successfully refine them, would inevitably advance their cultivation, reaping great benefits.
Many corpse fragments, even larger than stars, were fought over one after another by the Supreme Powerhouses of various regions, who regarded them as supreme treasures.
Even the Ancient Monarchs were no exception.
If they dared not contend for the intact corpses of the Forbidden Zone Rulers before, they could at least fight for these shattered corpse fragments, unless the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm intended to completely oppose the entire Primordial Heaven Realm.
An Ancient Monarch made his move, a giant hand snatching a corpse fragment comparable to a super star, delighting in his prize.
But soon, a terrifying boom was heard. An extremely fearsome power surged skyward from that corpse fragment.
Dao Principles were burning, incinerating the vast heavens, an extreme terror.
Even a single spark of it would be enough to kill a Great Power without fail.
It was the residual power from the Dominator battle high above, now erupting!
"Suppress!"
The Ancient Monarch calmly shouted, suppressing all the residual power, then proceeded to collect this corpse fragment.
Thus, a massive fragment of a Forbidden Zone Ruler's corpse was successfully collected.
As for the other corpse fragments, as long as they didn't crash into the mountains and rivers of various places, they were all intercepted by the powerful experts from all sides.
Although each corpse fragment was imbued with terrifying, bizarre power, many experts were caught off guard, corrupted and eroded by the dark force, leading to the fall of many powerful figures.
But there were also more experts whose strength was sufficient. Those who made a move were at least at the Heavenly King level or above, even including Great Powers, God Kings, and Quasi-Sovereigns, acting depending on the size of the corpse fragment. Therefore, in the end, over half successfully neutralized the dark power within and sealed them away.
High above, beyond the layers of heavenly curtains, countless destructive rays of light bloomed completely.
One after another, they continued without end, but for a long time, no fifth corpse was seen falling.
The billions of living beings, all people sensed that the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm was likely in peril!
This continued for a full half-day.
Boom—
Finally, a sound that shook the ancient ages and myriad realms abruptly arose, instantly resounding through the Primordial Heaven Realm.
It also transmitted through the Rule Heavenly Passes to the seven great realms of the Earth, Mysterious, Yellow, Cosmos, Eon, Vast, and Desolate Realms.
The various Rule Heavenly Passes trembled incessantly, rumbling loudly, startling all directions, even developing many cracks.
No one knew what exactly had happened high above. They only saw endless light blooming, piercing through the layers of heavenly curtains and the Ancient Emperor Dao Principle light screens, startling everything.
The thirty-three layers of heavenly curtains in the vast heavens were torn apart in the first instant. The Ancient Emperor Dao Principle light screens trembled violently, teetering on the brink.
But they held firm in the end, withstanding the assault, not completely shattering.
Yet everyone could sense the terror of that ultimate light. Even an Ancient Monarch would feel his heart pounding, knowing that if he were high above, he would undoubtedly die.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom—
The Dao Principle light screens were torn open with huge cracks. A great many fearsome objects fell, causing terrible destruction.
There were falling stars from the myriad heavens, shattered world fragments, exploding fragments of the Great Dao Heavenly Suns, corpse fragments of Forbidden Zone Rulers, and wreckage of shattered Forbidden Ancient Weapons...
The Supreme Powerhouses from all sides took action to block them. Even the lands of ancient sages and places of creation, and even the seven great ancient legacies, acted one after another to protect the Primordial Heaven Realm.
Of course, they also fought over these falling objects.
For any cultivator, these falling objects were all truly priceless treasures, offering extraordinary benefits to one's own path of cultivation.
No one knew how much time passed before all the light high above finally dissipated completely.
The world watched. Supreme Powerhouses gazed into the distance. Ancient Monarchs opened their Heavenly Eyes, staring unblinkingly at the vast heavens above, wanting to know the final outcome.
They saw that the originally resplendent and prosperous starry land had completely vanished, replaced by a ruined expanse of outer starry sky.
As far as the eye could see, everything was starry wreckage turned to fragments.
Countless star domains had turned to dust and smoke. The starry sky had permanently dimmed by more than half.
This was the result of the Dominator battle!
Capable of annihilating star seas at the slightest move!
Even—
Those nine heavenly suns that should have hung high in the unreachable heights, now, only six heavenly suns remained.
Three heavenly suns had been permanently struck down.
Even the remaining six Great Dao Heavenly Suns had dimmed considerably and even shifted positions.
Everything, everything, demonstrated the intensity of the Dominator battle!
"What about the other five Forbidden Zone Rulers of Life? What about the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm? Have they all fallen?"
The whole world focused. The flash of that ultimate light was enough to kill peerless figures of that level.
But they were Dominators after all. People believed some should still be alive.
However, the various Ancient Monarchs hoped they had all fallen. Otherwise, how could they obtain those Forbidden Zone Ruler corpses to enhance themselves?
Especially the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm. He was a peerless figure, an unparalleled existence who dared to face nine Forbidden Zone Rulers and successively killed four of them.
Moreover, he had cultivated for less than a thousand years. If they could obtain his corpse, perhaps they could glimpse the mysteries of ascending to a higher level.
No one knew how much time passed. Just as a Supreme Powerhouse prepared to make a move, high above, in a blood-soaked land of star ruins, an immeasurably colossal behemoth slowly rose to its feet.
Even though its body was covered in wounds, even shattered, its colossal form broken into segments, that aura could still shake the starry skies of all ages.
"It's the Forbidden Zone Ruler of Kunxu. He hasn't fallen. He's still alive."
The world recognized the identity of that Forbidden Zone Ruler.
Kunxu, one of the nine Forbidden Zones of Life.
Infinite blood light surged backward, along with beams of dazzling soul light, reassembling a colossal body spanning millions of li within the shattered star ruins.
Subsequently, the million-li body shrank, transforming into a normal human form, entwined with the myriad Daos of the heavens.
Although his aura had weakened considerably, it was still extremely terrifying, far beyond what an ordinary Ancient Monarch could compare to.
His figure was indistinct, standing eternally in the shattered star ruins, like a Chaos Demon God that had existed since the creation of heaven and earth.
"The Kunxu Ruler is still alive. What about the others? And the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm?"
The world was tense.
Then, from other shattered star ruins, terrifying auras rippled out one after another, shaking the endless starry sky.
One colossal figure after another, millions of li tall, reappeared in the mortal world, clearly belonging to the Forbidden Zone Rulers of Life.
However, there was uniquely no aura belonging to the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm.
Amidst the endless star ruins, there was only absolute silence.
The whole world trembled. Could it be that the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm had fallen?
