My Dreams Connect to Ancient Times

"Lu Zi! Lu Zi! Lu Zi!!"

Cheers erupted throughout the city. Countless citizens shouted his name while innumerable soldiers raised their weapons and roared as one.

Black and White Impermanence stared blankly at the raging inferno where the mountain had collapsed. The two Ghost Gods looked at each other, at a loss for words.

After a long moment, Black Impermanence stammered,

"A Great Power from the Human Race? He actually dared to interfere with the Drought Demon... Isn't he afraid of facing the Western Celestial Court's wrath?"

Just as White Impermanence was about to speak, an enraged roar echoed from within the collapsed and burning mountain.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!!"

The Drought Demon shrieked. As an Evil God, she possessed a body of the Grand Grade. Having slaughtered seven cities in recent days, she was already approaching the peak of the Grand Grade.

Although the palm strike of Unity of Virtue and Conduct had sent her flying, she wasn't injured. She was furious at the loss of face!

Clutching a remnant soul in one hand, the Drought Demon revealed her true form. Her body suddenly swelled, transforming into her thousand-meter-tall true self.

She rose to her feet amidst the rubble of the collapsed mountain and shrieked once more:

"Lowly wretch, you have angered Us! We shall burn the Qin Region to ash, burn the entire Qin Region to ash!!"

The ear-splitting shriek echoed for thousands of miles. Inside the city, people clutched their ears in pain. It was a good thing a protective formation shielded them; otherwise, that single cry would have been enough to tear Yong City asunder.

Meanwhile, in the city.

Taibai and Li Jing, standing stiffly beside the Cyan Bull, exchanged an odd glance. They both flinched, their expressions turning peculiar.

After a moment, Li Jing managed to choke out,

"That Drought Demon... she's certainly brave."

Venus glanced cautiously at the Cyan Bull and nodded in profound agreement.

'To dare call a direct lineage disciple of the Supreme a 'lowly wretch'...'

'Even if this Lu Zi, in his Earth Immortal form with a Great Virtue Body, probably can't kill the Drought Demon, the Cyan Bull will likely step in with a hoof later...'

As the two immortals were lost in their own thoughts, high up in the clouds and amid the roaring adulation of the masses, the old man stared coldly at the thousand-meter-tall Drought Demon in her true form.

He lifted his eyelids, revealing pupils like two Great Sun Golden Lamps. They reflected the glorious light of the heavens, a radiance that outshone even the roiling flames enveloping the Drought Demon!

Lu Xuan spoke, his voice cold.

"You have brought disaster upon the Human World, slaughtered millions, and massacred the innocent..."

"I shall execute you here, shatter your body, sever your soul, and extinguish your True Spirit!"

"Insolence! How dare you!!" the thousand-meter-tall Drought Demon shrieked in fury. Her chest heaved, and the flames surrounding her erupted once more, growing so intense they caused the very void to collapse. She was truly enraged!

A cold glint flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes as he took a step forward, his form suddenly swelling to an immense size.

[Celestial and Earthly Laws].

In an instant, the old man swelled into a colossal giant, his head brushing the Celestial Vault and his feet planted firmly on the Earth. He shielded Yong City with his body, directly confronting the Drought Demon.

The next moment, Lu Xuan raised his hand. Unity of Virtue and Conduct. The Dao and the fundamental principles of the world trembled.

[Heaven and Earth Inversion].

He brought his palm down, and it was as if the Celestial Vault itself was collapsing. Rivers for thousands of miles boiled, and endless layers of clouds tumbled down with it, a terrifying sight that covered the sky and sun!

The Drought Demon, though still enraged, had been dismissive. Now, her expression changed. Feeling herself locked in by that terrifying power, her contempt vanished. She stared at the giant palm that seemed to overturn the heavens and chose to meet it head-on!

Watching from afar, Black and White Impermanence were visibly shocked. They clearly hadn't expected this Great Power of the Human Race to be so overwhelmingly strong.

Within Yong City, astonishment flashed across the faces of Taibai and Li Jing as well. The latter spoke, his voice filled with shock and doubt:

"Is that... the Heaven-Flipping Seal?"

They both recognized it. The old man's technique of overturning the heavens was none other than the signature art of the Jade Void Lineage, one that shared its name with both a supreme treasure and a Dharma: the Heaven-Flipping Seal!

'A disciple of the Supreme... Why does he know a signature art of the Jade Void Lineage?'

The Cyan Bull sneezed. Duke Mu of Qin and Shang Yang stared nervously at the battlefield. Zhao Zheng's eyes, however, burned with intensity. He watched the colossal figure whose every move seemed to make the heavens fall, and a look of deep yearning appeared in his eyes.

'If, one day, could I wield such immense power?'

As countless minds raced with different thoughts, Lu Xuan's crushing palm collided with the Drought Demon. The impact sent out a deafening shockwave that obliterated several nearby mountains before slamming into Yong City, making the grand defensive formation groan and rumble.

The Drought Demon was knocked out of the sky, heavily struck. Faint cracks began to appear on her body. But Lu Xuan had not escaped unscathed; the very principles of the Dao woven into his palm had been burned through by her flames, leaving scorch marks on his hand.

'She is an Evil God of the Grand Grade, after all.'

"We act under a Decree from the Western Celestial Court!" the Drought Demon coughed up blood. Realizing this human was no simple foe, her expression grew solemn. After re-emphasizing the behemoth backing her, she snarled:

"Do you dare defy the might of the Western Celestial Court?!"

The colossal Lu Xuan calmly gazed down at the thousand-meter-tall Drought Demon. Chaos Qi swirled in his eyes, and the space around him abruptly darkened as visions of countless cosmoses rising and falling materialized.

His voice boomed like thunder, shaking the very heavens.

"Execute."

Lu Xuan thrust his palm out again. He had yet to use any of his Supreme Treasures; he wanted to test the limits of his pure combat strength while under the effects of Unity of Virtue and Conduct.

He immediately activated the Slaying Sword Form, infusing it into his right hand. The Peach Blossom Spring within the acupoint in that hand trembled, releasing a surge of the Power of Heaven and Earth.

The tribulations of wind, fire, and lightning from his Little World reflected into the Great Heaven and Earth, summoning the Three Calamities. This power, along with a palm now wreathed in Immortal Slaying Sword Qi, descended upon the Drought Demon!

Black and White Impermanence, watching from afar, were merely stunned by the terrifying techniques of this Great Power from the Human Race.

But Venus and Li Jing, who could discern the intricacies of the techniques being used, simply stared at each other in disbelief.

The latter cried out in astonishment:
