Chapter 1733: Influencing the River of Time

The Dark Hongjun Ancestor would not be so easily corrupted and twisted by chaotic, distorting energies.

Moreover, given the Dark Hongjun Ancestor's strength and status, this amount of dark chaotic energy was insufficient to defile or twist him.

After comprehending the Dao of Chaos and Distortion to its limit—the Xuanyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian realm—the Dark Hongjun Ancestor had gained full control over dark chaotic energy.

The surging dark chaotic energy surrounding him did not seek to corrupt or taint the Dark Hongjun Ancestor; it merely reflected his inner unrest.

The Dark Hongjun Ancestor was extremely covetous of the Legendary Split-Self Projection.

He could sense that the life force of the Legendary Split-Self Projection was exceedingly young.

So young, yet possessing such formidable combat power, and having mastered the Three Thousand Great Daos.

All of this clearly indicated that the Legendary Split-Self Projection was an unparalleled prodigy.

If such an unparalleled prodigy could fall into the hands of the Dark Hongjun Ancestor, the assistance it would bring him would be immense.

The moment the Dark Hongjun Ancestor sensed the aura of the Legendary Split-Self Projection, he immediately condensed a split-self and descended before it—precisely because of the prodigy's extraordinary talent.

Otherwise, a mere Xuanyuan Luo Jinxian would never warrant such serious attention from the Dark Hongjun Ancestor.

Originally, the Dark Hongjun Ancestor had assumed that a mere Xuanyuan Luo Jinxian could be easily captured with a single hand.

The reason he deployed most of his strength was primarily to prevent the Legendary Split-Self Projection from escaping.

But the Dark Hongjun Ancestor had not anticipated that the Legendary Split-Self Projection's combat power was so formidable.

Of course, the stronger the Legendary Split-Self Projection's combat power, the more excited the Dark Hongjun Ancestor became.

The stronger the Legendary Split-Self Projection's combat power, the higher its talent—and the greater the gains from devouring it.

In the eyes of the Dark Hongjun Ancestor, the power displayed by the Legendary Split-Self Projection was insufficient to threaten him.

But now, things were different.

After hundreds of breaths of combat, the Dark Hongjun Ancestor had realized the Legendary Split-Self Projection was no ordinary opponent.

Whether or not the Legendary Split-Self Projection had used a spiritual treasure to trigger the Changhe, the fact that it could trigger the Changhe hundreds of times in such a short span, without any Gu Ji,

proved that triggering the Changhe was merely an ordinary technique for the Legendary Split-Self Projection.

The Legendary Split-Self Projection's combat power might not be overwhelming, but with its mastery over the Changhe, it was already inherently invincible.

The Changhe was too mysterious—even the Dark Hongjun Ancestor had no confidence in influencing the Changhe.

After all, among the Daos mastered by the Dark Hongjun Ancestor, the Time Dao was not included.

Splash!

The dark chaotic energy continued to converge toward the Dark Hongjun Ancestor.

Under normal circumstances, the Dark Hongjun Ancestor would never actively gather dark chaotic energy.

Dark chaotic energy was saturated with chaotic, distorting intent; absorbing too much would easily lead to corruption.

Even with his strength, the Dark Hongjun Ancestor kept his distance from dark chaotic energy.

But to capture the Legendary Split-Self Projection, the Dark Hongjun Ancestor seemed to have thrown caution to the wind.

The dense dark chaotic energy had nearly dyed the enormous eye pupil formed by Niu black.

Not only was he drawing in the dark chaotic energy within the distorted space, but the Dark Hongjun Ancestor was also attempting to absorb dark chaotic energy from beyond.
