Even a Saint Sovereign could not scratch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, with one blow, the giant not only repelled all the Saint Sovereigns but reduced the Radiant Court to rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Light Lord Sage Monarch’s face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This opening strike was a blatant show of dominance. The god’s strength was just as suffocating as it had been a million years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across from him, the morale of the Sun-Moon Temple soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ancestor!” countless voices shouted in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun-Moon God raised his head again.

The skies had not stopped shaking for even a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the multicolored attacks exploded like a flood in the heavens, the space around the Light Lord that had been crushed by the Sun-Moon God instantly shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spatial prison dissolved, and the Light Lord inhaled air like a drowning man breaking the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tore free of the collapsing space and phased away in a desperate retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he was safe did he gasp for breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet despite his escape, everyone remained grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because after enduring the combined attacks of so many Saint Sovereigns, the Sun-Moon God stood completely unharmed, looking down on them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What no one expected was this: he shifted his gaze away from the Radiant Court crowd… and onto Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swept his hand forward, reaching directly for Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attack made no sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun-Moon Temple’s enemy was clearly the Radiant Court.

The escape had drained him terribly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just invoked the God World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent possessed Primordial Edicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Zimo’s God World was itself a complete world, anything could be found within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Primordial Edicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Zimo could barely wield such power in his current state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tiny thread of Primordial Edicts he’d used to break the god’s confinement had left him nearly empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun-Moon God paused for a moment, surprised. But only for a moment, then he reached for Xu Zimo again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo retreated rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the Light Lord Sage Monarch called out to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Xu, lend me your strength! Together, we can destroy this Sun-Moon God!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Arrogant,” Yin-Yang Sage Monarch snorted before Xu Zimo could reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing someone talk about killing their Ancestor made their blood boil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do we work together?” Xu Zimo asked the Light Lord, ignoring the Yin-Yang Sage Monarch entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for the presence of the Sun-Moon God, he wouldn’t mind fighting Yin-Yang then and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our Ancestor left behind a formation,” Light Lord said. “One designed specifically to counter the Sun-Moon God.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A formation?” Xu Zimo frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of formation could kill an Infinite Dao–level existence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never heard of such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hasn’t Young Master Xu noticed something unusual about this Sun-Moon God?” Light Lord asked suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Studying the god carefully, he indeed noticed strange details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the god radiated the aura of Primordial Edicts…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each time he used a bit of Primordial Edicts, it lessened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His movements were stiff, lifeless, more like a soulless corpse than a true Infinite Dao powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though his body brimmed with vitality, faint traces of death lingered within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you’ve realized it,” Yin-Yang Sage Monarch said quietly, narrowing his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. Our Ancestor, the Sun-Moon God, did indeed die back then. But we refined his corpse, and this is the result.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He admitted it openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What stood before them was merely a refined corpse of the Sun-Moon God, not the true deity.\u003C\u002Fp>",1037,"2026-06-06T01:07:26.019Z",1,"novelbin.me","336d644a2af4f828248acbfbe8ece890f765768186ef9c0b26b6b89ad8686500","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1552","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1500",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
