Chapter 264

As Yang Jian’s Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd swung down, the remaining dome of the Tushita Palace suddenly erupted with the map of the celestial constellations. His Heavenly Eye illuminated twenty-eight divine rays of the zodiac stars, which coalesced into chains. With a roar, he cleaved through the Heavenly River Weak Water, but the axe blade struck with such force against the Hunyuan Golden Container that sparks flew in every direction. The Xiaotian Hound shifted into human form, casting seals mid-air as the patterns of the Ancient Celestial Court’s Great Array of Stars manifested on his silver armor. "Break!" The axe-light tore through the triple layers of the firmament, revealing the inverted Ziwei Palace. The twenty-eight celestial entities, including Jiao Mujiao and Kang Jinlong, had manifested their true forms; the star officials, with their dragon heads and human bodies, stared out with hollow eyes, while the star-chains clutched in their mouths bound the Great Immortal Zhenyuan. The Earthly Book fluttered before his chest, and every page torn from it ignited into cinnabar in the air, falling into Lord Laozi’s Purple-Gold Gourd below.
