With a roar, he reversed his grip, seizing two of the tails in his hands and yanking them upward with immense force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside his body, billions of Heaven-Shattering Power Vortexes spun furiously, flooding his limbs and bones with power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow of a colossal Heaven-Shattering Giant flickered faintly behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With another shout, Xu Zimo flipped in midair, swinging Kui’s Evil Spirit form up and over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them collided and grappled through the void, hurling each other again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their terrifying auras clashed and burst apart in the air like falling comets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind Xu Zimo, the Shadow Tyrant unsheathed itself, erupting with a surge of demonic blade intent. It sliced through the air, severing the many tails that bound him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both combatants separated quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kui’s long hair billowed behind her, her ten fingers dancing in midair like a musician playing an unseen instrument.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless tiny lights appeared in the air around her, densely packed and radiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, those points of light transformed into orbs of energy, beams of condensed power forming a rain of light cannons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bombardment came down in torrents, covering the entire sky around Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void trembled and shattered. Everything within its range collapsed into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo pressed his palms together. A dark light surged from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten Forms of Demon, First Form: Realm Demon. Those who see gods within illusion lose all stability of mind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around him, countless black lights appeared, a mirror reflection of Kui’s own attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void itself seemed to mimic her technique, replicating her countless beams of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two barrages collided midair with thunderous explosions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shockwaves rolled outward, engulfing the entire Celestial Sage Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mountain trembled violently. Midway down its slope, the whole peak split in half, like a massive tree bending under unbearable weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the last of the explosions faded, there was little left of the Celestial Sage Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mountaintop was barren, devastated beyond recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kui’s eyes glimmered like twin moons. Her pupils narrowed into slits as she prepared to strike again, but she seemed to sense something below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze turned toward the underground chamber, the place where the formation wall stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She roared in fury and dove downward toward it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo stepped through the air and intercepted her, smiling. “What’s the rush? Finish our fight first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kui glared at him, rage boiling in her dark eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a furious scream, she charged again, completely losing control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tails lashed, her floating hair spread like wild fire, and her gray robes whipped in the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she ran, her body suddenly split into two forms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One shone with holy light, rising into the sky, its voice echoing in the heavens, a songlike chant, sacred yet twisted with demonic tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other form was pure sin, the embodiment of darkness itself. Rivers of the Yellow Springs flowed around it, the air thick with death, as it lunged toward Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Be careful! That’s Kui’s ultimate technique!” Jiang Mozhi shouted from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One form is the Dirge of Heaven, The God’s Lament. The other is The Passing of Death, Impermanence’s End.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Xu Zimo’s expression grew serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The radiant form continued to chant, its mournful cry resonating through the sky, as if heaven and earth themselves were grieving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a spiritual attack, aimed at his very soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black rain began to fall from the heavens. Each drop that touched Xu Zimo’s body turned into tangible force, assailing his spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the dark form, like the embodiment of Death itself, lunged straight at him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry about me! Just contact the Ghost God Collegium!” Xu Zimo called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s a barrier in front of the formation wall!” Xie Changliu shouted back. “It needs to be broken first, we’re almost there! Just hold on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sword energy blazed around him as his sky sword struck the barrier again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Visible cracks were beginning to spread across it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two spectral forms attacked, Xu Zimo activated his Nine-Revolutions God-Tower Physique, a supreme physique that defended the soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No spirit assault had ever pierced its ninefold barriers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his soul safeguarded, he focused his blade on the dark form before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hellish apparition was relentless. No matter how many times Xu Zimo slashed it apart, it reformed instantly, like water, impossible to cut no matter how sharp the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fire!” Xu Zimo shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The essence of flame gathered in his right hand, coating the Shadow Tyrant in blazing light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swung, igniting the dark figure in roaring flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even fire couldn’t destroy it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entity charged through the inferno, desperate to devour him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Myriad Trees Ascend!” Xu Zimo commanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nomological Truth of Wood surged outward; emerald light filled the air as colossal trees burst from the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their trunks twisted together into a living cage, trapping the dark form within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the creature opened its massive maw and bit through the trees one by one with snapping crunches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evil energy spread as it broke free again, charging straight toward Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He frowned, glancing at Xie Changliu and Jiang Mozhi still working to break the barrier below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His patience ran thin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go help them,” he said, hurling the Shadow Tyrant downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sentient blade turned into a streak of endless sword energy, slashing toward the barrier below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raising both hands, Xu Zimo muttered quietly, “Ten Forms of Demon, Eighth Form: Sun Demon. Those who block the demon’s path are bound as its kin!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between his palms, a blazing sun took shape, a true miniature star of light and heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he had plucked the sun itself from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brilliance engulfed him completely; its radiance burned through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The searing sunlight incinerated the void, and the heavens turned crimson as the descending sun crashed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything beneath it was reduced to ash, the dark figure screamed but could not resist. In the face of absolute power, it was utterly annihilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s open!” Xie Changliu shouted from the hall below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond the shattered barrier, a translucent wall of air appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On it floated countless glowing characters, suspended in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Mozhi sliced open his palm and pressed his blood-stained hand against the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is it?” a vast, ancient voice boomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before them, a spectral image appeared, a projection from another world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Evil Spirit has escaped!” Jiang Mozhi cried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his words, the projection burst apart, vanishing instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the formation wall began to tremble and activate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An overwhelming force swept across the land, sealing everything within a hundred miles of Celestial Sage Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, countless ghostly shadows descended from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through them, figures emerged one after another, beings stepping across worlds, arriving from the Ghost God Collegium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder rumbled through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Kui’s Evil Spirit screamed in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her roar shook the heavens, her rage surging higher and higher, as the power of her malice grew ever stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>",1196,"2026-06-06T01:07:11.738Z",1,"novelbin.me","69403252e3abc05930d4e08609afe844f1ee6a71704c2f5333e846bf7cc7d547","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1177","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1175",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
