Chapter 1097 All in: All Cards Revealed
The appearance of the Saint-level physical body clone was like throwing a piece of ice into an already boiling pot of oil, instantly triggering an even more bizarre and violent reaction.
That pure, extreme power, seemingly capable of crushing the void, made even the two Saint-level Heavenly Sovereigns of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan, Black Heaven and Black Earth, feel unprecedented pressure.
"The Maha Ancient Clan, the Futu Ancient Clan, and the Heitian Ancient Clan—I never imagined that the three great ancient clans of the Great Thousand World would gather here today."
"Even so, I am taking Yan Jing and Chen'er away today, and no one can stop me, not even the ancient races!" Mo Yu said coldly, his eyes glaring at the crowd.
Upon hearing this, Maha Tian's expression turned extremely ugly. He never expected that Mo Yu, who was once just a Spirit-Rank Heavenly Sovereign, would have grown to such an extent that he would not even put the three ancient clans and the four Saint-Ranks in his eyes.
If he were to back down and allow Mo Yu to take Qing Yanjing and Qing Chen away, the consequences would not only be that he, Mohe Tian, would lose face, but the ancient reputation of the Mohe clan would also be destroyed!
Maha Tian will absolutely not allow this to happen!
"No one can force me, Mohetian, to back down, not even you, Moyu!" Mohetian's eyes darkened, and then he said to Heitian and Heidi, "Please stop Moyu's Saint-grade physical body clone."
"As for Mo Yu himself, our Maha Ancient Clan will deal with him with all our might!"
The two Saint-level beings, Hei Tian and Hei Di, exchanged a glance and nodded helplessly. They didn't really want to get involved in the conflict between the emerging overlord and the old clan, but they had incurred a favor in the past.
The two exchanged glances and instantly reached a tacit understanding—the favor had to be repaid, but Mo Yu's clone with his Saint-grade physical body was not to be underestimated and must not be taken lightly; they had to go all out!
"Dark Realm of Darkness, Devouring Myriad Souls!"
Hei Tian took the initiative, his hands forming a fist. The Hei Tian Devouring Spirit Domain, which had been torn apart by the punch of the Saint-grade physical body clone, did not dissipate. Instead, it rapidly contracted and condensed as if it had a life of its own, eventually turning into a layer of viscous, ink-like, constantly writhing and changing dark 'swamp'.
It didn't cover a wide area, but rather precisely enveloped the Saint-level physical body clone!
Within this dark realm, countless twisted and wailing phantoms of souls seem to be imprisoned, emanating a strange power that erodes flesh and devours life force, specifically targeting physical cultivators with vigorous blood and energy!
"The underworld is unpredictable, the Nine Netherworlds are locked!"
Hei Di then pointed his fingers like a sword and made several quick taps into the void.
In an instant, the space around the Saint-grade physical body clone suddenly became cold and gloomy, and nine pitch-black chains, completely condensed from pure 'Nine Nether Death Qi' and exuding a chilling aura that could freeze the soul, suddenly emerged from the void!
These chains are not physical entities, existing in a state between reality and illusion. They possess a strange, unpredictable quality, ignoring most physical defenses and energy shields. Like nine venomous snakes, they coil around the clone's limbs, neck, and waist from all directions, attempting to completely imprison and seal its movements!
One is erosion, the other is confinement!
The two Saint-level experts of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan were clearly no ordinary beings, and they instantly devised a plan that was highly targeted at Saint-level physical experts!
Faced with this combined attack of illusion and reality, unpredictable and bizarre, the ancient bronze eyes of Mo Yu's clone remained cold and indifferent, as if the dark domain that eroded life and the chains that froze the soul were merely a gentle breeze.
He didn't even change his defensive stance; he simply took a deep breath.
"boom!!!"
This single breath seemed to instantly drain away all the air, spiritual energy, and even the dissipated subtle energy within a hundred feet!
His already imposing body seemed to have expanded slightly, and beneath his skin, the chaotic blood and qi that surged like dragons emitted a deep, muffled roar. The bronze color on his body surface suddenly subsided, and his entire body exuded a heavy texture like an ancient divine mountain or immortal divine iron!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
……
The first to attack were the nine Netherworld Chains.
They successfully entangled the limbs of Mo Yu's clone, and the icy death energy seeped in frantically, attempting to freeze his blood and lock his soul.
However, when that death energy touched the primordial blood flowing beneath the clone's skin, it was like cold water being poured into a boiling oil pan, instantly triggering a violent reaction!
Within the clone, the primordial blood and qi, containing boundless vitality and earth-shattering power, circulated and boiled on its own, and the most yang, most rigid, and most pure life force erupted!
The Nine Nether Chains wrapped around it seemed to melt away like a venomous snake being branded with a red-hot iron, emitting a hissing sound and billowing black smoke!
The death energy and impermanence contained in the chains quickly disintegrated and dissipated under the scouring of the primordial energy and blood of extreme strength and yang!
In the blink of an eye, the nine seemingly bizarre Nine Nether Chains broke and melted away inch by inch, like ice and snow under the scorching sun, failing to exert any substantial restraint on the clone!
"what?!"
Hei Di's expression changed. His 'Netherworld Impermanence Lock' was designed to lock the soul and blood, and it could cause great trouble even against a Saint-grade opponent of the same level. Yet, it was actually broken by the opponent's pure blood power.
At this moment, the viscous 'Dark Domain' had completely enveloped the clone.
Countless distorted phantom souls emitted silent shrieks, frantically gnawing at and eroding the clone's flesh and life force.
The Dark Domain, like a corrosive acid, attempted to suppress this perfect, holy body.
His clone was completely swallowed by darkness, and he disappeared from the outside world for a time.
"Did they succeed?" a spectator whispered.
However, Heitian's face showed no joy, but rather a deeper solemnity.
He could clearly sense that within the Dark Domain, the aura of that physical body had not weakened at all; on the contrary, it was like a suppressed volcano, accumulating even more terrifying power!
The vengeful spirits that gnawed at the other party's skin were burned to ashes the moment they touched the other party's skin, just like hitting indestructible divine metal!
"The Dark Domain... is trembling?!" Alarm bells rang in Hei Tian's mind.
really!
"break!"
A deep, short, yet seemingly earth-shattering shout resounded from the center of that writhing darkness!
Immediately afterwards, a fist gleaming with bronze light burst forth straight out from the center of darkness, without any frills!
This punch contained no supernatural transformations, nor did it draw upon the energy of heaven and earth; it was simply the purest, most primal, and most domineering power!
Wherever the fist passed, space shattered like fragile glass, forming a straight, dark spatial rift channel!
"Boom!"
That viscous and eerie 'Dark Domain,' capable of corroding any immortal body, was like an eggshell struck by a giant hammer before this pure fist, with a huge hole being violently blasted open from the inside!
Countless fragments of dark energy and vengeful spirits were swept up by the force of the fist and shot out and annihilated in all directions!
The bronze-colored figure stepped out of the shattered dark domain unscathed, his body radiating a powerful aura, like a human-shaped furnace, sizzling and rapidly purifying the remaining darkness and death energy.
Pure force can break through all laws!
No matter how strange or unpredictable your abilities, I will shatter them with a single punch!
Black Sky and Black Earth's expressions turned completely serious.
They realized that this physical clone was far more troublesome than they had anticipated.
He seems to have extremely strong resistance to most energy attacks and negative status effects; his defense and strength have reached an outrageous level!
Although the two only intervened because of a favor from Maha Tian and had no grudge against Mo Yu, such a crushing defeat at the hands of a mere clone of Mo Yu would be a great damage to the prestige of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan!
"Don't fight him head-on! Use hit-and-run tactics, wear him down, and attack any 'acupoints' or 'connections' he might have!"
Black Sky, experienced and shrewd, immediately changed tactics and transmitted a message to Black Earth.
"understand!"
He nodded, his figure flickered, and he transformed into a fleeting black shadow, rapidly circling around the Saint-grade physical body clone.
At the same time, his hands flicked repeatedly, and a series of fine, yet incredibly sharp, "Black Fiend Needles" containing the power of "breaking through the body's defenses" and "corroding the spirit" shot out like a torrential rain towards the major acupoints and joints all over the clone's body, searching for possible weak points.
Hei Tian then formed hand seals again, this time not pursuing large-scale erosion, but compressing the dark power to an extreme degree, condensing it into 'dark spears' that were almost tangible and shimmered with a metallic luster.
The spearhead, with its faint light, seemed capable of piercing through the world's barriers. With its extreme penetrating power, it combined with the dark needles of the underworld to target the clone's eyes, ears, throat, genitals, and other traditional vital points, as well as key nodes where energy might circulate, from various tricky angles.
Faced with this relentless and persistent barrage of precise attacks and harassment, which seemed to be a persistent, malignant wound, Mo Yu's clone finally made its move.
His movements were no longer simple and direct, but became as agile and precise as a ghost!
Despite not using any spiritual power, relying solely on his physical strength and absolute control over every inch of his muscles and bones, his speed was so fast that he left behind afterimages!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
He weaved through the forest of needles and spears, each subtle turn, tilt of his head, and twist of his waist perfectly avoiding the vast majority of attacks.
Occasionally, a few needles or spears of darkness would strike his body, but they would only make a crisp clanging sound like metal clashing, leaving a barely perceptible white dot on his bronze skin before sliding off or shattering weakly, unable to break through his defenses at all!
For a moment, the battle on the field was extremely fierce, which amazed and shocked many guests present.
No one expected that the two Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereigns of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan, joining forces, would actually reach a stalemate with one of Mo Yu's Saint-grade physical body clones!
Neither of them can do anything about the other!
This result left all the spectators shaken, and their awe and fear of Mo Yu had reached an unprecedented level!
To fight against three ancient clans single-handedly is an astonishing feat!
Mo Yu was not surprised by this result. He knew that although the two Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereigns of the Black Heaven Ancient Clan were quite powerful, they were both at the early stage of Saint-grade. His clone not only had a Saint-grade physical body, but his spiritual power cultivation had also advanced to the late stage of Immortal-grade in the past two years, only one step away from Saint-grade.
With its current strength, the clone could easily contend with two early-stage Saint-level beings.
Then Mo Yu looked at Maha Tian and Fu Tu Xuan, and like a god, looked down at them indifferently and said: "Do you admit defeat?"
Although the Maha Ancient Clan and the Futu Ancient Clan are two of the five ancient races of the Great Thousand World, Mo Yu has reached such a level that he is certainly not an indecisive or soft-hearted person.
If Maha Tian and Fu Tu Xuan remain unchanged and continue to act with the arrogant and pedantic attitude of ancient races, then Mo Yu would not mind sending them to meet the King of Hell together!
Seeing Mo Yu's aggressive demeanor, Mohe Tian and Fu Tu Xuan's expressions turned extremely ugly. They never expected that this joyous day would turn into a scene where their two ancient races would be humiliated!
"Mo Yu, don't think you've already won. I can do without that lowly servant Qing Yanjing! But if you want to climb over our ancient clans to rise to power, you're dreaming!"
By the end, Maha Tian's eyes had turned somewhat ferocious, and he roared in a low voice.
The pride of the ancient race was deeply ingrained in Maha Tian's bones. Now, kneeling and begging for mercy in front of many powerful figures in the Great Thousand World, Maha Tian felt that he would rather die!
After speaking, he ignored Mo Yu and instead turned his blood-red eyes to Fu Tu Xuan, shouting, "Elder Fu Tu, how long are you going to endure this? Do you really want the world to think that our ancient clan has no foundation and is a weakling to be slaughtered?!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Tu Xuan was first taken aback, then seemed to understand the meaning behind Maha Tian's words. His aged face changed constantly, and a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes.
Seeing the hesitation in Futu Xuan's eyes, Maha Tian snorted coldly, then ignored him and looked at Mo Yu again, his expression ferocious and sinister.
"Mo Yu, you dare to be so insolent in front of our ancient races? You, a mere country bumpkin from a lower plane, have no right to do so!"
Maha Tiansen gave a cold and ferocious smile, a ruthless and decisive look flashing in his eyes. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood essence, which, along with the changes in his hand seals, eventually transformed into a blood-red rune.
The crimson runes shot into the sky and disappeared into the deepest part of this void.
boom!
Just as the crimson runes disappeared, everyone felt the earth tremble violently.
In the depths of the void, seemingly in the ancestral land of the ancient Maha clan, thousands of miles away, a black and white pillar of light shot into the sky and then connected to the heavens.
The pillar of light seemed to pierce through the void, connecting heaven and earth. Above this Floating Pagoda Realm, space shattered, and the black and white pillar of light descended from within that space.
Within that black and white pillar of light, everyone saw a jade bottle, displaying both black and white colors, slowly appear.
When the black and white jade bottle appeared, the entire world seemed to begin to take on black and white colors, as if yin and yang were converging.
An indescribable power emanated from the black and white jade bottle.
Upon seeing this item, all the powerful figures present were shocked, never expecting that Maha Tian would actually bring it out.
Seeing this, Fu Tu Xuan sighed. Things had come to this point, and with Maha Tian going all in, Fu Tu Xuan had no way out.
He took a deep breath, and as the world was shocked by the black and white jade bottle, his stern voice suddenly resounded throughout the entire Buddhist world.
"Please summon the ancestral pagoda!"
