Sadly, all of this seems somewhat futile.

"Your magical artifact, I accept it with pleasure!" At this moment, the voice of the Peacock King echoed from the sky, like a death sentence reverberating between heaven and earth.

Behind him, the five-color spirit light of blue, yellow, red, white, and black shimmered, and the world became still. It was exactly the Peacock King's innate Divine Ability, the Colorless Divine Light, that swept away all treasures under the heavens.

Although his Incarnation was destroyed, which diminished his combat power, the Five Elements Origin was still in his grasp, fundamentally unaffected.

"Swipe!"

In a flash of lightning and fire, in the blink of an eye, inside the Chaos, filled with multicolored radiance, he intercepted the treasure right before the Qinghe Dragon Lord's eyes before it could return, brushing down the magical treasure refined from the Qinghe River Essence.

In an instant, the five-color spirit light surged, like a peacock spreading its tail, as the magnificent colors swept across, transforming the entire Chaos Void thousands of miles around, fully embracing the Five Elements.

"No!"

By now, the Qinghe Dragon Lord also understood what the other intended to do. With a shocked heart, he took decisive and ruthless action.

But all of this was in vain, like waves crashing into the void, as the five-color divine light flashed, leaving nothing in the Void.

This all happened very quickly, even with the swift reaction of the Qinghe Dragon Lord, he could only find himself grasping at nothing.

By this time, the five-color divine light had long since swept up the magical treasure, condensing out of thin air before the Peacock King.

The many powerful onlookers couldn't help but be startled, showing a different expression.

Logically speaking, not to mention such a spiritually bonded treasure, even an ordinary magical artifact would have its own spirit, making it impossible to be brushed away so casually, wouldn't it?

This question immediately took root in everyone's hearts.

They knew of the Peacock King's great name, well-acquainted with the famous five-color divine light, aware of the terror it represented.

But they never imagined the five-color divine light could be so terrifying, able to seize a magical artifact refined by a powerful Taoist Monarch with such ease.

If that's the case, wouldn't the Peacock King be invincible, forcing any opponent to protect their magical artifacts during a confrontation? If they couldn't even use their artifacts, wouldn't that unavoidably weaken themselves?

This made many powerful figures start to worry in their hearts, considering if there was any method to counter this.

"Is it because the Peacock King is more powerful than the Qinghe Dragon Lord?"

This seemed to be the final possible answer and the result that many powerful figures most eagerly hoped to see because only in this way would they feel somewhat reassured. Otherwise, the Peacock King would be too terrifying!

As the five-color divine light flashed, even as they were miles apart in the Void, all the powerful individuals felt a light tremor in the magical artifacts they held, as if they were about to depart from their hands, a feeling even the powerful Taoist Monarchs could not avoid.

"Is this the Peacock King's innate Divine Ability?" An old Taoist Monarch murmured to himself, standing in the Chaos Void.

"The five-color divine light is so bizarre, truly unpredictable!" Another Taoist Monarch looked at everything before him with some disbelief.

All of this ended in an instant, yet the result was hard to believe.

To the surprise of many powerful figures, from the moment the magical artifact was seized until now, a few breaths had passed, and in the vaguely visible five-color mist, there appeared a struggling phantom of a True Dragon. It looked not like it wanted to struggle to break free, but as if it was resisting something.

The Peacock King stretched the spirit light of the Five Elements behind him, the five colors of blue, yellow, red, black, and white swirling as he said leisurely, "I said your magical artifact belongs to me!"

Upon these words, behind him, a five-colored divine feather emerged, and the suspended Five Elements Spiritual Light in the void exploded suddenly, like a five-element storm sweeping through the inside.

"No!"

With a trembling heart, having sensed something, the Qinghe Dragon Lord's face turned grim, and his face showed shock, fear, and other expressions not supposed to appear on a Taoist Monarch's face.

His instinct as a top-tier powerful figure told him that the treasure, upon which he had spent hundreds of thousands of years and exhausted countless efforts, was about to drift away from him.

The reality was harsh, and his instincts did not deceive him. Not even a single complete "No" escaped his lips before a heart-wrenching pain suddenly engulfed him like a tide.

"Bang!"

Like a tightly stretched string suddenly snapping, the sound was both real and illusory, echoing in the depths of his Divine Soul. For a moment, even the line between illusion and reality was blurred.

In an instant, the eyes of the Qinghe Dragon Lord were filled with murderous intent. This treasure, refined over countless years and connected with his heart and blood, should not have lost its connection in any situation.

Yet, at this moment, he clearly felt that the invisible connection of heart and blood, maintained over hundreds of thousands of years, suddenly broke.

Not only were his eyes bloodshot, but at the same time, a trickle of blood flowed from his nose and mouth, dyeing half of his garment along his beard. Were it not as black as ink, it would have long been a patch of bright red, utterly tragic.

In front of the Peacock King, the five-color divine light dissipated, leaving only the magical artifact like a silken ribbon suspended, vaguely showing hidden surging currents, endlessly alive yet devoid of the intention to struggle or return, lying there quietly, unmoving and silent.

The Qinghe Dragon Lord's heart and blood, refining for hundreds of thousands of years, were erased in an instant!
