Chapter 93: The Clash: Meng Yi vs. Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang, separated by several nations, had analyzed the Blood Apostle almost entirely through the perspective of a single sub-banner of his Myriad Soul Banner.

Accustomed to doing as he pleased, Xianmo Weiyang struck without hesitation. His sub-consciousness condensed into a Nether Ghost Demon, and the giant claw, blotting out the sky, descended upon the majority of the Bird Country's territory.

"Little friend, would you care to enter my Myriad Soul Banner for a chat?"

Compared to the Nether Ghost Demon, the Blood Apostle was as insignificant as a speck of dust.

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang joked with a smile, while Red Queen, who was operating the Blood Apostle, wore an icy expression.

【"Five Great Limits of Swallowing Heaven and Destroying Earth: Swallowing Heaven"!】

Magnetic fields resonated, lightning was born from the void, and the sea of thunder boiled!

The thunder pillar rising from the earth bombarded the descending giant claw, but it was like a clay ox entering the sea; it evaporated only a few wandering souls, and the next moment, more souls filled the void, failing to cause much of a ripple.

"This move is somewhat interesting. Is this a novel application of Two-Polarity Meta-Magnetism?"

Seeing that the Blood Apostle had potential, Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang slowed the Demon's offensive, hoping the Blood Apostle would use more innovative techniques so he could analyze the Blood Apostle's underlying laws.

【"Infinite Star: Spacetime Fortress - Level 2 Authority Connection"!】

【"Life Force Field: Domain Expansion"!】

Red Queen had no intention of fighting Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang, who clearly wasn't someone to be trifled with; doing so would be pure suicide.

The crystal wall layer, shimmering with iridescent light, expanded, propping up a tiny yet stable sanctuary within the demonic domain.

【Coordinate Locked: Space Teleportation Activated!】

A pitch-black spatial rift appeared behind the Blood Apostle.

Red Queen intended to jump into the teleportation rift and flee, but Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang laughed heartily: "Not bad! Not bad! Truly not bad!"

"Little friend, you are much more interesting than that Wangliang or Wu."

"Seeing that you are aggregated from cellular consciousness, which shares similarities with the 'Rebirth from a Drop of Blood' of body-refining cultivators, how about you try this move of mine: 'Web of Seven Emotions and Six Desires'?"

The giant ghost demon dropped billions of law-threads from its palm, weaving them into a giant web that covered the entire country.

With a light pluck of a single thread, the law of desire affected the stability of Red Queen, the psionic lifeform operating the Blood Apostle.

Her consciousness sank, her actions stalled, and the path to escape was sealed, leaving her to rely on the expanded domain to survive.

"Little friend, do you have any other moves?"

The giant demon waved its hand, unleashing a strike with power greater than an Exterminatus cannon, slamming into the crystal wall layer protecting the Blood Apostle.

A single strike, simple and unadorned, exceeded the Blood Apostle's load-bearing limit, causing the crystal wall layer to tremble violently.

Even with the micro-Life Force Field domain absorbing the vast majority of the output, the residual power wiped the Bird Country off the Ninja World map, killing countless living beings.

As rivers of blood flowed and vengeful spirits were about to fall into the Netherworld's alternate space, Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang paused. His demonic eyes pierced through layers of spatial barriers, locking onto Otsutsuki Hagoromo, who was hiding in the Netherworld.

"Little mouse, I've been looking for you for several days. You'd rather completely seal the alternate space channel than communicate with the outside world."

"Sacrificing the souls of an entire nation has finally allowed me to catch your little tail."

The Nether Ghost Demon hooked its finger, and all the Myriad Soul sub-banners planted in every corner of the Bird Country converged, following the faint connection to launch a fierce attack on the Netherworld's alternate space.

The black-green ancient banner shattered spatial barriers along the way, dragging the power of laws to bombard the Netherworld's barrier.

Otsutsuki Hagoromo was terrified; he hadn't expected the enemy to seize such a slight opening!

"State of the Natural Immortal" activated!

"Netherworld Origin" burned!

Waving his Six Paths Staff, he used every trick in his arsenal to block the serious strike projected by Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang.

The Netherworld alternate space, attached to the Ninja World star, was like a small boat in a violent storm.

The Myriad Soul Banner, however, was like an anchor, biting onto the Netherworld alternate space and refusing to let go.

"Bastard! Damn outsider!"

Seeing that the Nether Ghost Demon was about to cross the boundary, the Sage of Six Paths gritted his teeth in hatred and had no choice but to cut off his own tail to survive.

Otsutsuki Hagoromo shattered one-third of the Netherworld locked by the ancient banner and fled into the spacetime turbulence with the remaining Netherworld, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Planting flowers intentionally yields no blossoms, but planting a willow unintentionally allows it to grow. Not a bad harvest."

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang beckoned to retrieve the Myriad Soul Banner and the Netherworld fragments.

Taking advantage of the battle between the Nether Ghost Demon and the Sage of Six Paths, the tiny sanctuary maintained by the crystal wall layer reopened the spatial channel.

Meng Yi successfully took over the operating authority of the Blood Apostle.

【"Five Great Limits of Swallowing Heaven and Destroying Earth"!】

Starting with the Thunder of Swallowing Heaven, it evolved into the Fire of Acceleration, the Ice of Solidification, the Earth of Heaviness, and the Wind of Flow!

The light of the Five Elements cycle blocked the path between Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang and the Myriad Soul Banner, a thin glimmer that seemed like an insurmountable chasm!

"Oh? Evolving the Five Elements through Two-Polarity Meta-Magnetism? Has the main master arrived?"

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang, seeing that he couldn't retrieve the spoils in the short term, was neither arrogant nor impatient, observing the vastly different Blood Apostle with interest.

"The host has arrived. I failed to welcome you from afar, please forgive me."

"My name is 'Xianmo Weiyang'. How should I address you, fellow Daoist?"

The Nether Ghost Demon used for bullying the weak compressed rapidly.

Xianmo Weiyang, an adult male in appearance wearing simple black robes, locked eyes with Meng Yi across the crystal wall barrier.

"Paradise: First-Tier Player, Bai Mo."

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang was open and honest, and Meng Yi did not resort to deception.

"The Bai Mo with a 2-level credit rating?"

Xianmo Weiyang looked strange; before entering the dungeon, he had specifically checked the Paradise's "Monster Ranking" and found that a First-Tier player's monster value actually exceeded his own.

Of course, this was also the reason Xianmo Weiyang hadn't wasted time harvesting leeks.

"..."

Meng Yi's eyelids twitched; this bastard's way of speaking was infuriating.

"Friend, what do you intend to do?"

Xianmo Weiyang laughed, "Just a joke, fellow Daoist, why are you getting angry?"

"It's not that I'm complaining, but fellow Daoist, your habit of eating alone is quite dishonorable."

"You know the 'plot destiny' and have scavenged all the good things."

"What are ordinary players like me, who know nothing about 'plot destiny', supposed to do? This is clearly bullying an honest person!"

Xianmo Weiyang had some complaints about Meng Yi bullying an "honest person."

Striking today, he had intended to fish for the Sage of Six Paths, that hidden turtle.

Who would have thought that while testing the returning Blood Apostle, he would flush out a deep-sea giant beast comparable to himself.

But it didn't matter; change is the only constant.

"Shall we spar?"

Meng Yi certainly wouldn't spit out what he had already swallowed, and he hadn't expected to encounter another "fish-bombing" expert in a mere First-Tier "Promotion Assessment."

As the Sage of Six Paths had guessed, one mountain cannot hold two tigers; Meng Yi and Xianmo Weiyang were bound to clash sooner or later.

"Very well!"

"I will use a projection as a piece, and you will use a puppet as a piece. Let's limit the chessboard to this 'Bird Country' beneath our feet, and try to avoid large-scale destruction of the hunting ground's ecology, how about that?"

Testing is testing, fighting is fighting.

Neither Xianmo Weiyang nor Meng Yi wanted to shatter the Ninja World star, especially before they had finished consuming the Ninja World's nutrients.

If the two of them fought with true fire, let alone a mere Ninja World star, every planet in the star system would be blown into space fireworks.

"Agreed."

Meng Yi nodded, his indifferent expression becoming slightly more serious.

【Life Force Field: Expansion!】

【Positive Planetary Domain Framework!】

【Five Elements Framework: Filling!】

【World Embryo: Opening!】

The petite Blood Apostle's sleeves fluttered, and half of the Bird Country was enveloped by the crystal wall layer.

The power of magnetism refined earth, fire, wind, water, and the outline of a world began to take shape.

"Good! Very good! Evolving the Five Elements through Meta-Magnetism, and then evolving a world through the Five Elements. Fellow Daoist, you have impressive methods!"

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's smile grew even richer. "Fellow Daoist, take a look at this 'Dharma Domain' of mine, is it worthy of your eyes?"

The corpses of nearly ten million people in the Bird Country rose, their blood merging into a surging sea of blood, while the vengeful spirits unable to fall into the Netherworld constructed the firmament.

The land of one country was split in two.

On the side near the Rain Country was the embryo of the Five Elements World, and on the side near the Ghost Country was the Blood Sea Netherworld Purgatory.

The Myriad Soul Banner in the sky and the Netherworld alternate space fragments served as the dividing line between the World Embryo and the Dharma Domain.

With the blessing of the Dharma Domain, Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's projection, even in its current state, remained formidable.

Xianmo Weiyang's home cultivation system involved engraving "Nine Great Natal Arts" at the Second-Tier (Foundation Establishment), sublimating "Natal Divine Abilities" at the Third-Tier (Golden Core), and constructing a "Dharma Image" (also known as Law Manifestation) at the Fourth-Tier (Nascent Soul).

At the Fifth-Tier (Deity Transformation), the "Dharma Image" evolves into a "Dharma Domain" that covers reality.

At the Sixth-Tier (Void Return), one opens up a "Blessed Land" world, becoming transcendent and free.

At the Seventh-Tier (Integration), the three elements of essence, energy, and spirit are perfectly fused, using laws as the foundation to refine everything the cultivator possesses into a "Grotto-Heaven" with the status of a world!

"Although I am a demonic cultivator, I also know a thing or two about righteous methods."

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang pointed like a sword, and the laws of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth rotated in reverse, and the aura of great destruction gradually spread!

"Fellow Daoist, you don't seem to have reached the level of laws yet. Watch as I use the Reverse Five Elements Divine Ability to break your World Embryo!"

【Great Divine Ability: Five Elements Destruction Sword!】

The black light, carrying the momentum to obliterate all things, pierced through the dividing line between the Dharma Domain and the World Embryo, bombarding the world barrier Meng Yi had temporarily opened, shaking the "Positive Planetary Domain - Magnetic Five Elements Framework" that maintained the World Embryo!

Meng Yi's ancient, waveless eyes flickered; Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's power of laws had caught him off guard.

【"Magnetic Field Manipulation" + "Planetary Domain Framework" + "Micro-Domain Interference" = "Planetary Magnetic Field: Added to My Body"!】

Since he couldn't reach the level of laws, rules, or concepts in terms of quality, he would pile it up with "quantity"!

The Ninja World star trembled violently. By temporarily stripping away the magnetic field of a planet, the Blood Apostle's energy level was boosted by several tiers.

Output limit cannot be equated with physical size.

Meng Yi's main body was equivalent to a small planet with a diameter of ten kilometers, but he could perfectly mobilize all his power, superimposing leverage to increase output, easily shattering a normal planet.

The vast power of the magnetic field obliterated Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's reverse Five Elements laws.

"Friend, your methods are quite extraordinary."

"My methods... are not necessarily inferior."

Courtesy demands reciprocity. The Blood Apostle, stacked with various buffs, unleashed a super-doubled, three-in-one "Psionic Energy," determined to destroy the stability of Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's projection!

"Hahahaha! Fellow Daoist has great divine abilities!"

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's projection laughed arrogantly, not shocked but delighted.

【Seven Emotions and Six Desires: Illusory Freedom Heaven!】

Although he had never fought a psionic user, Xianmo Weiyang, relying on his high-level vision, countered move for move, forcibly unleashing methods of a higher realm.

The web of desire laws covering half of the Bird Country sublimated into a realm of illusory phantoms, colliding with the incoming psionic tide!

Both were offensive arts of the mental and spiritual level. The psionic tide and the Grotto-Heaven illusion stalemated for a moment before both were neutralized.

The two "fish-bombing" experts used projections and apostles to fight, attracting the peeping of many lurkers on the Ninja World star.

Otsutsuki Isshiki could no longer remain calm, using Shinra Tensei to pull over the subordinate who had reported false intelligence.

"This is what you called a country-destroying combat power?!"

Destroying a country? Destroying a ghost! This is world-destroying!

"Woo... woo..."

The clone subordinate who had scouted the information struggled to breathe, unable to speak a complete sentence.

Otsutsuki Isshiki looked displeased and used a little force, crushing the subordinate who dared to deceive him.

"Other celestial clans are eyeing the Ancestral Star too?"

"No, I must call for reinforcements from the Main Clan, otherwise the secret of Otsutsuki Shibai's ascension might fall into the hands of others!"

Admitting defeat when you can't win isn't shameful; Otsutsuki Isshiki decisively chose to retreat. Even if he returned to his peak, he wouldn't be qualified to compete on the same stage as these two "fish-bombing" experts.

Losing face or missing the opportunity of the Ancestral Star? This question didn't need thinking.

The two "fish-bombing" experts' sparring intensity gradually increased.

You have a World Embryo, I have a Dharma Domain True World.

You have magnetic field blessings, I have the power of laws.

You have psionic tides, I have Illusory Freedom Heaven!

In just a few minutes, the ruins of the Bird Country, which had been decent in size, were beaten into a desolate, dead land.

Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang's projection light dimmed, and the blood sea and soul river that maintained the Dharma Domain were exhausted.

The Blood Apostle's energy was nearly depleted, unable to maintain the planetary magnetic field blessing, and the World Embryo vanished into thin air.

"Fellow Daoist, do you have any other methods? If not, I'll consider this a small victory for me."

Xianmo Weiyang grinned, confident that if Meng Yi only had this much, he would win.

"Fellow Daoist, try the 'Age Beast' I used to raise and see if it's fierce!"

The dim projection of his will gradually dissipated, and a void rift appeared behind Xianmo Weiyang.

Far away in the Ghost Country, Immortal-Demonic Xianmo Weiyang waved the main body of the Myriad Soul Banner.

A dragon-shaped essence, glowing like the sun, broke free from its cage, extending claws that vied with the light of the stars!

In his peak, the True Demon Xianmo Weiyang had raised twelve Age Beasts (Single Universe Level), tampering with world laws and bringing endless disaster to his home world.

Xianmo Weiyang, who was constantly causing trouble, was hunted down by the Lord of an Immortal Realm until his body perished and his path ended.

Seeing the opportunity, many top cultivators in the cultivation world sacrificed their lives to besiege the twelve Age Beasts, but they were unable to encircle the Age Beast residues that had been embedded into world laws and become part of the operation of world laws, leaving behind endless poison.

A centipede dies but never stiffens.

The True Demon reincarnation Xianmo Weiyang drew upon the methods engraved deep in the true spirits of the Age Beasts, prying off a few pieces of world laws and using the Age Beast residues as protective beasts during his growth.

Meng Yi's eyes narrowed; this bastard was quite capable.

According to his observations, the so-called "Age Beasts" were likely polymers of the residues of certain souls, having long since lost their intelligence and retaining only instinct, not even one-billionth of their peak.

【Lao Long, come out and fight!】

In his peak period, the True Demon Xianmo Weiyang cultivated twelve Disaster-Year Beasts (single universe level) with many resources, tampered with world laws, and brought endless disasters to his home.

The whole day making trouble, Xianmo Weiyang was hunted down by an Immortal Domain Lord until he died.

Seeing the opportunity, many top practitioners in the cultivation world sacrificed their lives to kill the twelve Year Beasts, but they were also powerless to encircle the Year Beast residues that were built into world laws and became part of the law operation, which can be called endless poison.

A centipede dies but doesn't stiffen.

The True Demon reincarnation body Xianmo Weiyang, triggered the means engraved in the depths of the Year Beast's true spirit, pried a few world laws, and used the Year Beast residues as guardian beasts during the growth process.

Meng Yi narrowed his eyes, this hanging person has something.

According to his observation, the so-called 'Year Beasts' are likely polymers of some soul residues, which have long lost their intelligence and only have instincts, not even one-billionth of their peak period.

【Imprisoned Dragon, come out to fight!】
