Chapter 3165: Ashamedly Retreat

Boom! Bang! Boom!

Within the vast Shen Ru, sounds of explosions echoed continuously, causing tremors in the outer starry sky.

"Someone's making a huge fuss in Shen Ru?"

Many deities heard the news and arrived from afar. They didn't even need to see to know that a fierce battle was unfolding inside.

There was no shortage of deities with nothing better to do.

Looking around Shen Ru, figures could be seen everywhere – some openly observing, others lurking in the shadows.

It had been so many years without any commotion in Shen Ru.

Now, with such massive disturbances, it naturally piqued curiosity. No one could guess who would dare stir up trouble in Shen Ru.

"It must be the four major inheritances," Kuang Ying Jie said, with his hands clasped behind his back.

He had been staking out the area for quite some time and had personally witnessed the four major inheritances entering.

Moreover, this was their third visit.

Given the nature of the four major inheritances, after being turned away twice, it was only natural for them to resort to creating chaos.

"This is getting interesting."

Shen Long Dao Zun held a wine flask, chuckling with delight.

The other supreme beings felt the same way. If they could enter, they would definitely go in to watch the spectacle.

"Those two are probably just here to watch too."

Yue Shen didn't say anything, but her expression perfectly conveyed that sentiment.

"Do we know who's causing the ruckus in Shen Ru?"

"Who knows? Could be some supreme being from an outer universe."

"Don't be ridiculous. He doesn't have that kind of nerve."

As more deities arrived from all directions, discussions buzzed everywhere.

This world was never short of spectators – mostly neutral supreme beings who flocked wherever there was excitement, always ready to pick up any spoils. For instance, the Po Luo Mo Domain had been thoroughly looted before.

To this day, Po Luo Mo Shen was still investigating, unsure of the extent of the lost treasures.

The same applied to Hellfire Domain, Xian Tomb, and Fo Nation – they all suffered significant losses after that chaos.

And it was all thanks to those self-proclaimed spectators.

Today, with everyone gathered, at least eight out of ten were up to no good. After all, Shen Ru was a treasure trove!

If they could, and if conditions allowed, they wouldn't hold back.

That's how they made their fortunes – always showing up for the action, whether there was trouble or not.

Boom! Rumbling!

Amid the discussions, the battle's fluctuations grew even stronger, causing Shen Ru's immortal seas to surge wildly.

The fight was truly a sight to behold.

Wu Wang Mo Zun stood in the eastern void, having unfurled the Wu Wang Great Realm, its power shaking the four seas and eight wastelands.

Sha Lu Mo Shen was positioned in the western haze, manifesting his outer path dharma, with demonic aura billowing into the sky.

Both were at the peak of quasi-wild, from the highest inheritances. Every clash produced destructive visions, and only because Shen Ru's heavens and earth were suppressing it all did it avoid collapsing mountains and exploding ancient cities.

In the battle, Luo Hou was completely on the defensive. Even with the Lu Shen Sword in hand, after over a hundred exchanges, his body was covered in bloody gashes, each wound emitting a strange, eerie light.

It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough; it was that Shen Ru's heavens and earth were too formidable.

Wu Wang Mo Zun had merged with Shen Ru's heavens and earth. On the surface, it seemed like he was fighting Luo Hou, but in reality, it was a battle against the entire Shen Ru. Under such conditions, even the Lu Shen Sword wasn't enough.

That was the might of Shen Ru – with its complete heavens and earth.

Po Luo Mo Shen, A Luo Fo Zun, and Xian Zun weren't surprised by this. Even without Wu Wang Mo Zun using his supreme divine artifact, Luo Hou couldn't harm him. To wound him, one would first have to break through Shen Ru's heavens and earth.

In simple terms, that heavens and earth acted like a layer of armor that even supreme divine artifacts struggled to pierce.

Daring to fight on his home turf, Wu Wang Mo Zun had the capital to do so. In Shen Ru, he was the ruler. Not even Sha Lu Mo Shen alone could match him, and even if the other three joined in, they still wouldn't stand a chance.

And just like that, Xian Zun ascended with the Zhen Xian Banner hovering above him.

Following him were A Luo Fo Zun and Po Luo Mo Shen, each wielding their own supreme divine artifacts.

"You three have gone too far."

From all sides of Shen Ru, cold snorts echoed, and figures materialized one after another.

As a forbidden zone, it naturally had deep foundations. Besides Wu Wang Mo Zun, there were many great deities who had been observing the fight all along. A one-on-one duel was fine, but four against one was crossing the line.

In an instant, three ancient deities took to the skies, all of them ash-level supreme beings.

Thus, what started as a one-on-one between Sha Lu Mo Shen and Wu Wang Mo Zun turned into a four-against-four brawl.

Even then, more supreme beings from Shen Ru stepped forward.

From the looks of it, they were ready to swarm and gang up on the four major inheritances. How foolish – to cause trouble in Shen Ru of all places. They wouldn't get off easy without a thorough beating.

Boom! Rumbling!

The already lively Shen Ru grew even more chaotic, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring across the sky.

"The troublemakers? We're here to cause trouble, that's for sure."

Looking at the four major inheritances – whether Luo Hou, Xian Zun, Po Luo, or A Luo Fo Zun – every move they made emphasized that point. It wasn't an empty boast; they had already prepared to be beaten half to death.

Of course, their intentions went beyond that.

Causing chaos was real, and provoking anger was real, but what they truly wanted was to disrupt Shen Ru's heavens and earth. That way, the forbidden zone of Shen Ru wouldn't be so impregnable anymore. Any flaw would be to their advantage.

At the end of the day, it was just jealousy.

They were all forbidden zones, all inheritances of supreme gods, so why should Shen Ru's heavens and earth be intact?

Wu Wang Mo Zun understood their goal perfectly.

Disrupt Shen Ru's heavens and earth? The foundations of their four inheritances still fell short.

That's why he was so confident.

Let them fight! Fight to the death. The other side was all bluster, but Shen Ru was ready for it too.

Indeed, none of the four major inheritances were a match. They were all in a sorry state.

It was only thanks to their supreme divine artifacts protecting them that they weren't utterly destroyed.

"Quite the spectacle."

Zhao Yun stroked his beard, watching with great satisfaction.

"Knowing they're here to cause trouble and still letting them in – Wu Wang that guy's head isn't screwed on right," said Ye Chen, hands behind his back. If it were him, he wouldn't even let a fly in.

"With supreme divine artifacts leading the way, there's no stopping them."

Zhao Yun spoke leisurely. Having been in Shen Ru for five hundred years, he knew more than Ye Chen.

Still, being able to enter didn't seem to do them much good.

The current scene proved that perfectly. Even with the four major inheritances teaming up, they were still getting pummeled. Maybe they could disrupt Shen Ru's heavens and earth, but the cost would be devastatingly high. If things went wrong, they might even perish here – it would be mutual destruction at best.

"What ambitious four inheritances."

Ye Chen sighed, genuinely amused by Luo Hou and the others. Causing trouble was one thing, but seeking a beating was another.

"It's over," Zhao Yun said casually.

Outside, four figures fell one after another, like meteors crashing down, their divine light dimming.

They were Luo Hou, Po Luo, A Luo Fo Zun, and Xian Zun.

Looking at their conditions, there was no "worst," only "worse." Someone like Po Luo, with slightly weaker foundations, had his primordial spirit severely damaged and could barely stand after landing. Without the Fu Mo Tian Umbrella, he would have been in even worse shape.

"This is just too overwhelming."

Luo Hou's expression was grim. He had thought they could disrupt the heavens and earth, but clearly, they had underestimated Shen Ru.

This beating was for nothing.

Xian Zun didn't speak, but his pale face said it all.

"Care to continue?"

Wu Wang Mo Zun stood in the haze, looking down at them like a worldly king. In Shen Ru, he was the king, fused with its heavens and earth – only a supreme god could suppress him, and he was that bold.

"Today just isn't my day; I'll return another time," said a certain bald figure, speaking seriously but fleeing like the wind, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

"I'll return another time."

The other three from the major inheritances were equally quick to agree. All of them were gravely injured and fled faster than the last. If Shen Ru decided to go all out, at least two of them would be left behind.

That wasn't an empty threat.

With Shen Ru's complete heavens and earth, they indeed had the power to do so – at least take down two.

However, Wu Wang Mo Zun had his own concerns.

No supreme inheritance was that simple. If they didn't have trump cards, no one would believe it. If pushed to the brink, they might do something extreme, like self-destructing their supreme divine artifacts.

That would surely throw Shen Ru's heavens and earth into disarray, and it wasn't worth it.

So, unless absolutely necessary, no one would be foolish enough to fight a supreme inheritance to the death.

"Once I attain eternity, I'll deal with each of you one by one."

Wu Wang Mo Zun sneered, then closed his eyes and turned back into Sen Luo Shen Dian.

In that instant, the supreme gods perked up.

Sen Luo Shen Dian was a prime spot – there were two talents waiting inside for someone to enter.
