Chapter 5639: Tough to Deal With đź’Ş

Published: January 31, 2025

Boom! A sound akin to the apocalypse reverberated through the heavens and the earth. Under the gaze of countless eyes, the Soul Yueshan, which had stood for billions of years and held an endless, ancient history, the place where the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor once emerged, exploded at this very moment.

Self-destruction!

Everyone was shocked as they watched the scene unfold, retreating in horror.

To eradicate this abyssal being, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor actually detonated his former place of training. How could such a method not leave everyone astonished and terrified? Was it possible that the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor was truly not a traitor?

At this moment, many could not help but doubt in their hearts.

The incredible roar echoed through the universe, seemingly endless. At this time, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor's eyes were ferocious, crazily invoking the law's power from within the Soul Yueshan. The terrifying law auras swept through the Five Peaks Territory, gathering here and forming a terrifying killing formation that crushed the abyssal being inside.

“Five Peaks... you... harbor ill intentions, may you not die well!” the abyssal being screamed despairingly, its form gradually disintegrating in the law's power of Soul Yueshan. The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor’s power contained a trace of abyssal energy, a remnant of the years of cooperation with the Abyssal Clan, but now it had become the source of its demise, tasting the bitter fruit of its actions.

“The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor has betrayed our clan... to kill... collaborating with the Underworld... it’s a trap...”

As it faced death, a blurred message suddenly surged from the dissipating aura of the abyssal being towards the Abyssal Altar beneath the Soul Yueshan, disappearing in an instant along the abyss passage beneath the altar. And as this message transmitted, the entire Abyssal Altar exploded, the rolling abyssal aura surging madly, temporarily obscuring the passage connecting the Underworld and the Abyssal Clan, creating a wasteland of abyssal plague.

“Don’t blame me; if you must blame someone, then blame your own stupidity for being captured by the Emperor of the Underworld... and foolishly rushing out to oppose this emperor, putting this emperor in such a passive position.” The Emperor of the Underworld stared down at the Soul Yueshan, where the abyssal being had turned to ashes under the self-detonation of the Soul Yueshan.

Although the abyssal beings were strong, they were not invincible. How terrifying was the self-detonation triggered by the endless rules of the Five Peaks Territory as the foundation of the Soul Yueshan? Even the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, caught in it, would find it hard to escape severe injury.

Killing an abyssal being was not difficult.

But it was easy to kill this one, yet the heart of the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor sank deeply, unable to restrain the blood from dripping within. The Soul Yueshan was where he had laid out countless years of strategies, and within it was a passage to the Abyss, the bridge connecting him with the Abyss. Yet in the current situation, he was forced to destroy all of it, obscuring the abyss passage temporarily.

Otherwise, if the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan and others delved deep into the Soul Yueshan, they would surely discover the Abyssal Altar and the abyss passage, along with the corpses of many underworld great emperors. By then, even if he had a mouth, it would be impossible to explain.

Looking at the surging abyssal aura below, akin to a plague and miasma, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor raised his head to look at the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan and many ancient emperors present, spitting out a mouthful of blood, gritting his teeth, and said, “Everyone, to prove my innocence, I have detonated the Soul Yueshan, killing this abyssal being here. Do you still suspect me now?”

The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor floated in the sky, blood at the corners of his mouth. His robe billowed, looking at everyone with a weak aura, as if severely injured.
