425: Invincible

“Hoo… hoo…”

In the Void Realm, the White-Robed Old Man, suppressed and sealed by the tall, ancient stone tablet and the azure blue pearl, sensed the fiery red figure make a move.

However, before he could do anything, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

An immense power pierced through him, tearing at his flesh and Divine Soul.

Old Man Tianji's eyes dimmed.

Intense unwillingness and hatred broke through the Void Realm, manifesting above the Nancang Domain.

But he was utterly powerless.

“You…”

Old Man Tianji's aura plummeted, and blood gushed from his mouth.

His right hand slowly lifted, as if he wanted to say something.

However, the Wind and Rain Spear erupted within his body, completely severing his life force.

As Old Man Tianji's aura dissipated,

Outside the Void Realm,

Venerable Wan Fa, Demon Venerable, and several other Venerables who were observing felt a sudden shock in their hearts.

They exchanged glances.

The astonishment in their eyes was evident.

A Cultivator at the Late Stage of Soul Transformation, the strongest in the Xuanming Realm, and even the strongest in both realms, Old Man Tianji, had fallen!

In front,

Above the several-hundred-zhang-tall, nine-story ancient pagoda, the light pillar dimmed and completely vanished the moment Old Man Tianji died.

The Seal was not broken, no Upper Realm powerful being descended, and Old Man Tianji died.

This meant that…

Mo Xuan was truly invincible!

Invincible… The several Venerables were deeply shaken.

Yet, an involuntary unease arose within them.

Although they had not helped Old Man Tianji, they also hadn't stopped him.

They had merely been observing.

Now, with this outcome, they wondered how Mo Xuan would treat them.

The several Venerables felt their hearts tighten, preparing to flee.

However, they couldn't leave at this moment.

Only Venerable Cangyue showed a hint of joy on her face.

Because her Disciple had become a Dao Companion with Elder Beihai of the Zhou Family, the two families had been close for a long time.

The stronger Mo Xuan was, the more beneficial it was for the Cangyue Sect.

“Hmph!”

In the Void Realm.

The Black Giant Serpent let out a cold snort.

The fiery red figure, unable to move due to the stone tablet's rebound, looked at the White-Robed Old Man below, who had already lost his aura.

His expression changed drastically.

Flames erupted.

But before he could react,

The massive stone tablet trembled.

A ripple of power boomed.

It landed within the flames.

Boom!

The flames scattered.

A figure fell.

His aura gradually faded.

Buzz~

The ancient, tall stone tablet soared through the Void Realm and departed.

On Qingyang Peak.

A magnificent, ancient stone tablet descended from the Void Realm.

It landed on Qingyang Peak… Nancang Domain.

The Void Realm vibrated.

A several-thousand-zhang-long Black Giant Serpent emerged from the Void Realm.

Bringing with it an irresistible, invincible might.

It appeared above the Nancang Domain.

“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Mo, on your invincibility and awe-inspiring might across the universe!”

Seeing the Black Giant Serpent reveal its true form,

Venerable Wan Fa, Demon Venerable, Daoist Chong Hua, and Venerable Lieyang — four Venerables — looked nervous and bowed in salute.

“Fellow Daoist, are you unharmed?”

Beside the four Venerables,

Venerable Cangyue, with a crescent moon hovering high above her, asked.

The Black Giant Beast, slithering out of the Void Realm, ignored the four bowing and flattering individuals.

It only looked at the beautiful Young Female Cultivator beneath the crescent moon.

It nodded.

“I'm fine.”

At this moment,

In the Void Realm,

Stars fell.

Their brilliance dimmed.

Old Man Tianji had died, and the Formation that opened the Seal was broken.

Venerable Xingai, knowing there was no longer any hope of survival, sighed in his heart.

He gave up resistance and perished under the qingming divine sword.

The disheveled figure holding the qingming divine sword and the three colossal beasts, each bearing injuries, emerged from the Void Realm.

They paid their respects to the Black Giant Beast perched high in the sky.

“Fellow Daoist, how should we deal with this junior?”

The fox demon with a seven-colored tail calmed the violent fluctuations within her body and asked the Black Giant Serpent.

If Venerable Xingai hadn't actively sought death,

They would not have killed Venerable Xingai.

After all, Venerable Xingai had known Mo Xuan the longest and might have a deep friendship.

It was better to leave it to Mo Xuan to handle.

However, they hadn't expected Mu Xing'ai to actively seek death.

There was nothing they could do now.

Beside the three Demon Venerables,

Venerable Qing Ming, looking somewhat disheveled and bearing multiple wounds, remained silent.

He was secretly vigilant in his heart.

He had risked making a move to stop them.

But he had heard what the White-Robed Old Man said.

If the Seal were opened and Upper Realm powerful beings descended,

Although they might be fine,

The fate of other forces and Cultivators would be uncertain.

To prevent countless Cultivators in the domain from becoming slaves to Upper Realm forces and losing their autonomy,

He had hesitated for a long time before taking the risk to act.

But now,

If the Xuanming Realm Venerables here saw him isolated,

And made a move to eliminate him,

With only Heavenly Qilin Demon Venerable, a Soul Transformation Middle Stage Venerable, to support him,

The Xuanyang Realm might not even be able to retain its four domains.

As Venerable Qing Ming remained silently vigilant,

Venerable Qian Mei Hu waved her hand.

The Young Female Cultivator, pale-faced and unconscious, enveloped in starlight, revealed her delicate features.

Mo Xuan looked at her.

He had some impression of this person.

But he hadn't expected her to be a descendant of the Xutuo Heavenly Palace.

Spatial fluctuations swirled in the serpent's eyes of the massive Black Giant Serpent, coiled high in the sky.

The delicate girl enveloped in starlight disappeared.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your assistance.”

Mu Qingli's figure vanished.

The several-thousand-zhang-long Black Giant Serpent's gaze shifted, landing on the cyan figure who had sheathed the qingming divine sword but still held it tightly.

Venerable Qing Ming's heart tightened.

The pressure increased dramatically.

It seemed that an indescribable might and oppression were hidden within that invisible gaze.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your assistance.”

At this moment,

A deep, magnificent, and authoritative voice resonated in the sky.

It fell into the cyan figure's ears.

But it sounded like heavenly music.

Venerable Qing Ming's taut body suddenly relaxed.

A slight smile appeared on his face.

He cupped his hands towards the Black Giant Beast and said,

“You are too kind, Fellow Daoist.”

“Hoo~”

Venerable Qing Ming let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.

There was nothing he could do.

Even from a distance, he could sense that the White-Robed Old Man, who had fully displayed his might, was not an opponent he could face.

Now, he had perished here.

Facing a powerful being capable of killing that White-Robed Old Man,

Even he found it difficult to maintain a calm, unruffled demeanor.

Moreover, he was injured.

On the other side,

A cold, middle-aged man, holding a long blade but having been sent flying by the light pillar, reappeared in the air.

He sensed the situation here.

The deaths of Old Man Tianji and Venerable Xingai made him sigh inwardly.

After catching sight of a dark-red figure with a weak aura,

Venerable Kuang Dao's heart stirred.

He flew forward.

“Fellow Daoist.”

“Old… I have an impertinent request.”

Venerable Kuang Dao, with his long blade strapped to his back, cupped his hands in salute.

He almost blurted out 'Laozi' (an arrogant way of referring to oneself).

Fortunately, he managed to correct himself in time, a hint of awkwardness on his face.

“Please speak, Fellow Daoist.”

The Black Giant Serpent nodded in return.

“I wonder if Fellow Daoist could spare Asura Venerable's life.”

After a moment of silence,

Venerable Kuang Dao, with the long blade on his back, spoke softly.

“Of course, Fellow Daoist and I haven't had much interaction before.”

“If Fellow Daoist agrees, please state any conditions, and I will do my utmost.”

Venerable Kuang Dao finished speaking and immediately added a few more words.

“This person is quite genuine…”

Mo Xuan glanced at the somewhat nervous Venerable Kuang Dao.

He didn't give much thought to the Asura Venerable.

An Asura Venerable with a flawed Dao Heart.

He didn't even put him in his eyes.

“Since he was defeated by your hand, it is naturally for you to decide.”

Mo Xuan finished speaking.

He paid no further attention.

At this moment,

Red birds cried out, and golden Buddhas shone.

In a certain part of the Void Realm,

Venerable Scarlet Flame and Buddha Venerable broke through the Heavenly Secret Seal and emerged.
