Su Changfeng deduced that the Silver Flood Dragon was bound to Tianyuan Mountain, making it unable to pursue him. He confronted the massive beast, revealing its resemblance to a mythical dragon from his world. This revelation caused the Silver Flood Dragon to believe Su Changfeng hailed from a higher realm, instilling fear and making it hesitate. Su Changfeng then unleashed his full aura, triggering Heavenly Punishment.

In an instant, above the Sourceless Forest, vast swathes of black clouds gathered, and thunder roared.

The Silver Flood Dragon looked at the sky with a somewhat puzzled expression, then quickly realized what was happening.

It turned out to be a heavenly punishment. Was this kid undergoing tribulation?

It found this extremely amusing. Could it really be that he only had this much strength?

"Kid, are you actually here to undergo tribulation? Is this all the strength you have?" the Silver Flood Dragon’s disdainful voice came, completely disregarding such a level of power. It almost thought that Su Changfeng was like itself, a master from a higher world.

Hearing its words, Su Changfeng’s heart sank. If the Silver Flood Dragon spoke like this, it likely did not fear the heavenly punishment. But this was Su Changfeng’s ultimate trump card. If even the heavenly punishment couldn’t deal with the Silver Flood Dragon, he was truly doomed.

"Are you not afraid of the heavenly punishment?" Su Changfeng asked calmly.

The Silver Flood Dragon was stunned, then burst into laughter, finally understanding Su Changfeng’s plan. It hadn’t expected him to use the heavenly punishment against it.

Hahaha...

For a moment, the entire Sourceless Forest seemed to echo with the Silver Flood Dragon’s laughter.

"Ignorant fool, I have long accepted the heavenly punishment, so why would I fear it?" the Silver Flood Dragon said.

Su Changfeng’s heart sank as he asked, "You’ve accepted the heavenly punishment?"

"Yes, to go to a higher world, one must undergo tribulation. Do you think I would be any different?" the Silver Flood Dragon responded.

Su Changfeng’s face turned ashen in an instant, his long-held façade of calmness crumbling in moments.

He never imagined that the Silver Flood Dragon had already undergone tribulation and could thus reach the Third World. This meant the heavenly punishment he was so confident in couldn’t affect it at all?

However, Su Changfeng could not just give up.

Even if the Silver Flood Dragon had successfully crossed the tribulation, he had to fight against it with all his might.

It wasn’t that Su Changfeng was being reckless; he simply had no other options. If he didn’t do this, there would be only one outcome waiting for him—death.

The aura within Su Changfeng’s body surged out unrestrained, trying to increase the power of the heavenly punishment, hoping that it might hurt the Silver Flood Dragon.

The Silver Flood Dragon watched Su Changfeng with interest. Despite the fact it could stop Su Changfeng, it chose not to, wanting Su Changfeng to realize the true meaning of despair and how ignorant it was to believe in this course of action.

"Fine, I’ll watch you, take your time," the Silver Flood Dragon said.

Seeing the Silver Flood Dragon’s dismissive attitude, Su Changfeng tried his best to ignore it. He had to believe in himself; otherwise, his fate would be grim.

Dark clouds pressed down, thunder exploded, and the storm brewed.

All the cultivators on the Tianyuan Continent felt an unbearable pressure, as if mountains were pressing down on them, involuntarily causing a trace of fear.

Chenguang Hall.

You Meng, sensing the aura, instinctively looked in the direction of the Sourceless Forest. Although unaware of the exact situation, she was certain the battle was underway, and there was no room for regret.

"I hope your plan goes smoothly. If even you can’t resolve the Silver Flood Dragon, the Tianyuan Continent truly might be doomed."

Changfeng Sect.

Chen Qingqing, Wang Junyi, Baili Luoyuan, and Hua Qingyao stood atop Wanhua Mountain, all eyes fixed on the direction of the Sourceless Forest.

"Master has probably already started. The heavenly punishment must kill the Silver Flood Dragon!" Wang Junyi silently prayed.

Though Chen Qingqing remained silent, her expression was very serious. Despite her deep trust in Su Changfeng, having known him for so long, he never failed in what he set out to do.

But this situation was different, and despite wanting to believe in Su Changfeng, anxiety lingered within her. If anything went wrong, Su Changfeng would die, and Chen Qingqing could not accept that outcome.

"Brother Changfeng, you must come back alive. Sister Hanxue and Niannian are still waiting for you, you must come back alive," Chen Qingqing said in her heart.

While everyone worried about Su Changfeng’s situation, a figure was hurrying toward the Sourceless Forest.

That figure was, of course, Shen Hanxue.

Neither Su Changfeng nor Chen Qingqing expected Shen Hanxue to have arrived on the Tianyuan Continent long ago, accompanied by Ye Nianhai.

"Mom, is it going to rain? Niannian is afraid of thunder." Ye Nianhai curled up in Shen Hanxue’s arms, appearing frightened by the constant torrent of thunder from the sky.

Shen Hanxue gently comforted Ye Nianhai, softly saying, "Be good, Niannian, we’ll see Daddy soon. Daddy is very powerful; he will definitely protect you."

Upon hearing this, Ye Nianhai’s trembling little body finally calmed down. To her, Daddy could do anything; he would protect her and Mommy.

In reality, this was largely due to Shen Hanxue. Although Su Changfeng wasn’t by Ye Nianhai’s side, Shen Hanxue would often tell Ye Nianhai stories about Su Changfeng, showing how amazing her father was. Over time, the young girl naturally came to regard her father as an omnipotent hero.

However, Shen Hanxue fully understood the situation today—Su Changfeng’s chances were slim. She knew very well how formidable the Silver Flood Dragon was.

Rumble...

At this moment, an earth-shaking clap of thunder came from the sky, heralding the first heavenly punishment.

As the target of the heavenly punishment, Su Changfeng quickly rushed toward the Silver Flood Dragon, intending to draw the punishment onto it.

But before Su Changfeng could get close, the Silver Flood Dragon made a move that left Su Changfeng wide-eyed.

Perched on Tianyuan Mountain, it flicked its tail and caught the heavenly punishment before it could even descend.

"Kid, I told you clearly, the heavenly punishment is useless against me. You didn’t think I was joking, did you?" the Silver Flood Dragon said to Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng looked at the Silver Flood Dragon’s tail, which bore no trace of damage despite enduring a heavenly thunder. This outcome filled Su Changfeng with utter despair.

He never imagined that to the Silver Flood Dragon, his most assured plan was so easily dismissed!

"This is just the beginning," Su Changfeng gritted his teeth, knowing he had no choice but to continue.

The Silver Flood Dragon did not stop Su Changfeng. At this point, it remained a spectator, watching Su Changfeng persist. To it, killing Su Changfeng was exceedingly easy, so it didn’t mind indulging him for a bit of amusement.

It had been a long time since it had encountered such an interesting event after sleeping for so long.
