When the drum beats rang out, the spirit energy in the heaven and earth suddenly became restless. The drum beats were simple, and there was only the purest thumping sound. However, it was as if every strike struck the spirit and blood, making the qi and blood boil and filling the spirit with murderous intent!

The heavy drum beats were like supreme power and boundless power. When they struck down, they were like mountains pressing down on people's Dao hearts, making them unable to breathe.

Celestial Venerable Yue's zither notes weren't affected by the drum beats at all. Instead, her zither notes were suppressed very low and peaceful. However, when the zither notes penetrated the drum beats, they were as clear as a trickling stream that flowed into everyone's heart.

In the dilapidated main camp of the celestial heavens, only the crippled soldiers and the busy Eternal Peace's apothecaries were left. As the soldiers listened to the drums and zither notes, the groans from the pain gradually lessened.

On the battlefield in the night sky, the flames of war had yet to be extinguished, and the light of the Grand Overarching Qi Celestial Heavens would erupt from time to time, causing this night to seem extraordinarily charming.

The drum beats became heavier, as if they were going to completely crush the zither notes. The murderous aura and pressure in the monotonous drum beats were like the surface of a restless sea that suddenly boiled up. It was as ferocious as a battlefield and as dangerous as it could be. There were battles everywhere, and there were flying swords and halberds, limbs flying in all directions, and heads rolling on the ground. All life struggled under the iron hooves, crying and wailing!

Butcher's drums were truly majestic!

He alone, with two hammers and a hundred drums, struck the drum bare-chested. He poured all of the authority and power of the person in power into the drum, making the murderous intent in the drum become stronger. He vented his worship and desire for power to his heart's content, using this power without restraint, trampling on everything!

Trampling on the power to survive, trampling on the proud lives, controlling wars, controlling slaughter!

The drum beats were filled with ambition to satisfy the desire for power. It gave people the feeling that when the ten Celestial Venerables were in power, they were oppressing all living things in the world!

Celestial Venerable Yue's zither music was unmoved. It was still like the spring breeze, like the flowing river, like the moonlight in the night sky.

Her guqin music didn't disperse the frenzy of the drum beats. It was like the long life force of all living beings that was destroyed and reaped in the drum beats. However, it stubbornly grew and multiplied.

The sufferings of all living beings seemed to be condensed in her zither music. They endured all the tribulations and pain, separated by life and death, yet they were resilient and endured silently.

Butcher's drumbeats fluttered, and he was filled with a domineering aura that could sweep through the world, raising his murderous aura that filled the world to its limits!

Suddenly, his body trembled violently, and he executed Creation Mysterious Technique. His arms danced in the air as he struck the drum almost frantically. The sound of the drum was agitated to the extreme!

The murderous aura became sinister, distorted, and violent in the drumbeats. It was like a devil that had its Dao heart twisted and released. It was like the nightmare in the dream had come to reality!

Power could control the clouds and rain with a flip of his hand. He could control the people and control the world to his heart's content!

The ten Celestial Venerables changed again, and revolutions came one after another. The reforms, the reforms, the hopes and expectations of all living things, all turned into illusions under the turbulent times!

One of the ten Celestial Venerables had fallen, and a new one had grown. It was as if a warrior had grown claws and teeth of a fierce dragon, and he still held a high position. He was still able to unleash his power without restraint and suppress everything!

The bloody sound of the drum caused everyone who heard it to see the dilapidated scenes of the thousands of worlds in the heavens. The ten Celestial Venerables controlling the world had benevolent expressions, but they controlled the disputes and turmoil of the entire universe, sending down countless calamities just to survive and satisfy their own desires.

At this moment, the sound of the zither was suppressed to the extreme, so low that it couldn't be heard. It was as if the lives of all living beings were about to end at this moment, completely crushed by the calamity.

Right at this moment, the sound of the zither suddenly changed. Clank, clank, clank, clank, clank, and a murderous aura rose up!

In that instant, the zither notes that made people's scalps tingle and their minds tremble seemed to come alive, making people's eyes brim with tears. It made people feel as if they had returned to history, experienced history, and crossed it.

That feeling allowed his fighting spirit to be released at this moment. It was actually so intense and fierce. It was like a tide that had swept through the mountains and covered the land. It was like a giant was disturbing the starry sky and tugging at the celestial river!

This was the voice of an unyielding warrior!

The sound of the zither fought with the drum, and the two kinds of killing intent entangled and collided, raising the killing intent of heaven and earth to the extreme.

Butcher became even crazier. His hundred arms danced in the air as he beat his war drum. He did everything he could to suppress the zither notes and suppress the resistance of all living things. However, the murderous aura in the zither notes never stopped. After being suppressed, it bounced back violently, becoming louder, becoming more powerful!

Suddenly, Celestial Venerable Yue's long hair danced in the air as she played the zither with her ten fingers. Fifty strings of the zither notes gathered together at this moment, transforming into towering killing intent that rushed out!

Clang—

The sound of the zither was incomparably sharp, and its penetrative power reached the extreme, making one's blood boil!

Shangjun's Killing Dao Melody, Moonlit Night First Kill!

At the same time, a heaven appeared behind Celestial Venerable Yue. It was the first heaven of the Dao Realm. In that heaven, the figure of Celestial Venerable Yue playing the zither appeared again. The sound of the zither was hurried, making it hard for people to breathe. Suddenly, with a push, the sound of the zither pushed the murderous aura that filled the heaven and earth up another level!

Moonlit Night Second Kill!

Before the sound of the zither died down, another heaven appeared behind her. Celestial Venerable Yue's apparition stood in that heaven, and her long sleeves fluttered. Her ten fingers fluttered, and the guqin revolved around her body continuously. All kinds of melodies crisscrossed noisily. Suddenly, Celestial Venerable Yue grabbed the guqin and gave it a push!

Moonlit Night Third Kill!

Another heaven of the Dao Realm appeared, and Celestial Venerable Yue's apparition played her zither. Suddenly, she raised her ancient zither to the side, and her hands moved frantically!

Fourth kill!

Next was the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth kill!



Behind Celestial Venerable Yue, layers of Dao Realm appeared, pushing the unyieldingness of all living beings, the protection of those with ambition, and the murderous intent of heaven and earth to the extreme!

Butcher's drumbeats had already been scattered, but he still struck the drum forcefully to fight against the zither notes. He tried to suppress the zither notes, forcing out even more profound unyieldingness and murderous intent!

Bang, bang, bang—

The flesh on his body exploded, and he continued to beat his drum frantically. In terms of cultivation and Dao Realm, Butcher couldn't be compared to Celestial Venerable Yue. However, if he wanted to activate the ultimate killing intent of the Shang Lord that Qin Mu had mentioned, he had to use an even stronger pressure to activate the killing intent in Celestial Venerable Yue's zither notes!

Amidst the vibrations of the zither notes, the murderous aura almost exploded his skin, making the qi and blood in his body steam like the rosy clouds of the morning sun. However, it didn't stop beating the drum.

Celestial Venerable Yue's heaven of the Dao Realm soon reached the thirty-third heaven, and Shangjun's Killing Dao Melody was raised to the thirty-fourth level!

The 34th kill, The Killing Intent Of The Heavens, Star Shift!

At this point, the killing intent was so dense that it produced an abnormal phenomenon, distorting the space. A tornado of Heavenly Fiends actually appeared in the sky, forming the Divine Knife of Heavenly Fiends. Other than the Heavenly Fiends, there was also a baleful aura. As it swirled, countless corpses floated in the sea of blood. The corpses struggled and wailed.

Suddenly, huge drums exploded, and all around Butcher, the war drums that were three hundred yards tall were shattered by the murderous aura!

Butcher hurriedly went forward and used his broad back to protect the last drum. He raised his hundred arms and smashed it onto the last drum!

Dong!

The drum beat, and the drum face exploded. Butcher was covered in blood as he collapsed to the ground. A smile appeared on his face. "This is all I can do. The rest is up to you, Celestial Venerable Yue…"

Clank—

The zither notes went up another level, and the thirty-fifth song of Shang Jun's Killing Dao was played!

Earthly killing intent, dragons and snakes rising and landing!

The ground cracked open, and the murderous aura that surged out from underground was like a slithering dragon!

Blood leaked out from the corner of Celestial Venerable Yue's mouth as she executed Thirty-Six Kills!

When a person unleashed their killing intent, heaven and earth would be overturned!

Behind her, the apparition of the thirty-sixth void appeared. It swayed unsteadily and was hard to form. She no longer had enough power and foundation to execute the 37th kill of this Shangjun Dao tune.

The thirty-seventh kill was the ultimate killing intent that was of utmost importance. However, Celestial Venerable Yue was still lacking some experience and couldn't unleash the final kill.

At that moment, layers of dreams spread out and surrounded her. In the dream, Celestial Venerable Yue seemed to have become Shang Jun, experiencing his tragic life from his perspective.

The dream seemed to be long, but it was only for a short moment.

In a short instant, Celestial Venerable Yue went through the distorted world at the end of the sixteenth era in the form of Shang Jun. She understood his persistence, his dreams, his hopes, and his despair.

Only by experiencing it personally could one understand the suffering that Shang Jun had experienced in his tragic life. Only then could one understand why his knife had been severed by Qin Mu, why his Dao heart had collapsed, and why he couldn't become the terrifyingly murderous Shang Jun of the sixteenth era!

In Celestial Venerable Yue's thirty-sixth Dao Realm, her apparition appeared and plucked the strings.

The 37th Slaughter of Shang Jun's Dao tune!

When the heavens and man combine their hair, the foundation of myriad transformations would be fixed!

The sound of a zither rang out, and the killing path boiled. Celestial Venerable Yue vomited blood, and the ancient zither exploded. She also fell backward, but she revealed a smile. Her Zaijiu void had achieved the path at this moment.

"I can probably play the tune of the fourth young master of Miro Palace."

She laid on the ground and looked at the murderous aura in the sky. She thought to herself, 'Celestial Venerable Mu, I can lend you a hand in the battle with the fourth young master…'

Qin Mu retracted his dream realm, and his aura calmed down. He looked at the night sky through the window.

In the night sky, an incomparably terrifying ultimate killing intent burst forth from the Grand Overarching Qi Celestial Heavens. The knife light lit up there, slicing apart the innate one qi.

Outside the house, Butcher laid on the ground and looked at the knife light from afar. He couldn't help smiling.

In the eyes of a knife path great grandmaster like him, the knife path contained too little. However, when the killing path and the knife path connected together, it gave him a feeling of comprehending the Dao again.

The knife light was overflowing and was actually so charming.

The knife light became a bloody light that dyed the Grand Qi Celestial Heavens red.

Killing Dao killed the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. At this moment, Shang Jun's Dao heart was perfected, and his Dao was sufficient to kill the First Qi Grand Dao!

Within the Grand Overarching Qi Celestial Heavens, the Dao Tree split open, the Dao Flower disintegrated, and the Grand Overarching Celestial Heavens fell.

Qin Mu closed his eyes and didn't look at the last scene. He said in a low voice, "Second brother, please forgive me for not being able to send you off."

After thinking about it, she didn't know what to say. It was better to send him off.
