145: He used all my words!

Xu Jinhuan struck down with a palm.

Bang!

The Void Realm trembled violently, the vacuum shattered instantly, and turbulent currents surged.

Xiao Huohuo, who was already missing two legs, had his entire Physical Body explode into dust, creating a bloody and terrifying scene.

However, Xu Jinhuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise appearing on his face.

“Oh?”

The next moment, the blood mist formed by the explosion of Xiao Huohuo's Physical Body suddenly condensed, rolling back as if time were reversing, and undergoing a new Fusion.

But what coalesced was an entirely new figure.

It carried a dense Undying Qi, and its eye sockets held no eyeballs, only a terrifying, churning darkness.

Xu Jinhuan recognized the identity of the figure instantly: the Lord of Undying Mountain, one of the Rulers of the Forbidden Zone whose Clone he had easily destroyed before.

“It's you again? You really are like a persistent ghost.”

The Lord of Undying Mountain glared at Xu Jinhuan, grinding his teeth, his voice filled with Chaos and malice:

“Brat, those words should be mine! You've ruined my plans time and again, and today you even killed the 'Immortal Destiny' I painstakingly cultivated. You are the persistent ghost!”

Xiao Huohuo was one of the pawns he secretly cultivated by stealing the power of the Heavenly Dao. He was born with great Luck. If Xiao Huohuo could attempt to prove the Dao in the future, the Lord of Undying Mountain could use him to control the Heavens Heart Imprint and glimpse the secrets of Immortal Ascension.

But now, such an important pawn was directly slapped to death by Xu Jinhuan.

How could the Lord of Undying Mountain not be angry?!

Although Xu Jinhuan didn't know the truth, he could tell that the soul he just extinguished seemed very important.

“Heh, so what? I'm standing right here. What do you want? What can you do?”

The Lord of Undying Mountain rarely swore:

“Damn!”

Being provoked so brazenly, even though he was an old fellow millions of years old, he was overcome with rage. He felt a flame shoot up from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head, and he was practically losing his mind.

Is he the villain, or am I the villain?!

He's using all my lines!

Anger aside, the Lord of Undying Mountain's projection had no intention of attacking.

There was no way; he couldn't win, absolutely couldn't win.

Feeling Xu Jinhuan's terrifying pressure, immense waves surged in his heart, leaving him unsettled for a long time.

“What kind of monster is this brat? After only a few days, how is he already close to touching the threshold of the Emperor Realm?!”

“Which magnate from the Endless Immortal Domain is he the Reincarnation of? Even those legendary figures standing at the peak of the Immortal Domain could at most reach this point, right?”

Moreover, the Lord of Undying Mountain felt an inexplicable pressure.

It was as if this young man, barely twenty years old, possessed means that could make even his true form wary.

“Tight wind, retreat!”

Knowing he was outmatched, this old fellow who had lived through countless ages immediately dissolved his form, his Clone dissipating without leaving a single threat.

Seeing the Lord of Undying Mountain flee in such a sorry state, Xu Jinhuan curled his lips, his face full of disappointment.

“Tch, boring!”

“I thought I could finally test out the ultimate move I just learned.”

Just in case, Xu Jinhuan had even prepared the Transformation into Ten Thousand Ages, manifesting thirteen Clones of himself at the Peak Great Sage level, each possessing a Major Achievement Chaos Body, their fighting power approaching the Peak Quasi-Emperor level.

The fourteen figures stood side by side, the pressure of the Peak Quasi-Emperor Realm sweeping across the heavens and earth, overwhelming the universe. Even the sun, moon, and stars dimmed, the Void Realm continuously shattered under the pressure, and their Aura was monstrous.

The main body looked at the Aura emanating from the group of Clones and frowned.

“Even if the Self-Transformation Freedom Art surpasses the Immortal Emperor, can it not replicate even one ten-thousandth of the Eternal Chaos Body's Divine Power? Or is it that my Realm and comprehension are still too low?”

He saw clearly that among the fourteen figures, only his main body contained the unique Eternal Power; although the Clones were strong, they lacked the Origin of Chaos that transcended all ages.

It seems the Eternal Chaos Body cannot be replicated by the Transformation into Ten Thousand Ages technique.

The doubt quickly vanished, and Xu Jinhuan didn't dwell on the matter.

Instead, he turned to look at the thirteen manifested Clones in front of him.

“Since they are already here, let them sweep through the other Immortal Dao Lineages. Slaughtering a dozen or so Dao Lineages one by one is too slow.”

The thirteen Clones nodded heavily, exchanged glances, and tacitly headed towards thirteen different directions.

No words were exchanged during this time, as they all originated from the same source and shared a single will.

The main body remained in the Xiao Family Ancestral Land.

With a flash, Xu Jinhuan arrived near the Xiao Family Ancestral Tombs.

The Longevity Xiao Family is an ancient Longevity Family. The greatest intersection of Karma among its members is their Bloodline connection, and the root of their Bloodline is hidden within these ancestral tombs.

“All forms of Karma, attach to my body! Sacrifice!”

Using the Karma Dao was ultimately too draining and wasteful.

This time, Xu Jinhuan switched to a different method: sacrifice.

Sacrifice only required a little bit of power and could be activated by burning the Bloodline of the Xiao Family ancestors.

Compared to the Karma Dao consuming Eternal Power, this saved a considerable amount.

Moreover, sacrifice could also acquire the opponent's Origin across infinite space, even if this power was minuscule and not very useful to Xu Jinhuan.

But even a mosquito's leg is meat. Having reached this stage, he couldn't afford to waste a single resource!

...In just one hour, the Xiao Family Ancestral Land completely turned into a dead, scorched earth.

Because the Xiao Family had not participated in besieging the Fang Family, there were no remaining members of the Fang Family here. Therefore, Xu Jinhuan acted even more ruthlessly, slaughtering all living beings within.

Regardless of the elderly, weak, women, or children, or how close or distant they were, no one was spared.

Uproot the grass and eliminate the roots!

As for accidentally killing the innocent... the Immortal War is not a dinner party; it is real warfare, a fight to the death.

Perhaps there were some Xiao Family members with decent character, but it was unlikely that Xiao Family members would have decent character.

Different stances mean they deserve to die!

Furthermore, they had enjoyed the glory and resources brought by the Longevity Xiao Family, so perishing along with it was only right.

Xu Jinhuan waved his hand, and the defenses of large areas of the Xiao Family shattered. Countless entrances to treasure vault spaces appeared, the defenses crumbled, and treasure light shot into the sky.

A large number of Cultivators from Taiyi Holy Land piloted warships down and began to systematically transport the Xiao Family's treasures and scripture collections.

Xu Jinhuan himself took the shattered ultimate dao emperor weapon Compass, returned to his warship, and led the team toward the next Immortal Dao Lineage.

However, the speed was significantly slower than when they arrived.

Yin Xinsu found this strange:

“Junior Brother, why aren't we marching at full speed this time?”

Xu Jinhuan smiled and explained.

“Senior Sister Xinsu, don't worry. I have already used a method to go ahead and destroy all thirteen remaining Dao Lineages. We are just going through the motions now.”

Hearing this explanation, Yin Xinsu was somewhat skeptical.

“Really? Junior Brother, are there truly such terrifying means in the world? I have limited experience, so don't lie to me!”

Wiping out thirteen Immortal Dao Lineages light-years away while chatting—this kind of event was still too shocking for Yin Xinsu.

For a moment, she couldn't believe it.

Xu Jinhuan glanced at the woman whose posture was as straight as a sword, and smiled faintly.

“If Senior Sister doesn't believe it, how about we make a bet?”

He wanted to Forge a Sword.

Although Senior Sister Xinsu had experienced several one-sided, hearty sessions of forging a sword with Xu Jinhuan.

She was also a Cultivation maniac, completely immersed in her Cultivation lately.

It had been a long time since they had forged a sword.

Yin Xinsu: “What is the stake?”

She felt uncertain, but her pride as a Saintess still made her brace herself and speak.

Xu Jinhuan acted mysterious: “Senior Sister will know when the time comes.”

Yin Xinsu: “Hmph! A bet is a bet. Do you think I'm afraid of you, big sister?!”

She wasn't worried about Xu Jinhuan making any excessive demands.

After all, what excessive demand hadn't she experienced while forging a sword?

At worst, he would just forge a few more times... Xu Jinhuan slapped her voluptuous rear end, his large hand covering it, and said.

“Excellent! As expected of Senior Sister Xinsu! A true heroine!”

Feeling the fiery touch on her shapely behind, Yin Xinsu's delicate face flushed slightly, but she let that annoying large hand roam freely without pushing it away.

They were practically an old married couple; this wasn't excessive contact, and she had experienced much worse.

Moreover, she quite liked and enjoyed this feeling. This subtle touch carried a hint of tenderness and ambiguity, causing ripples in her heart.

It was completely different from the heaven-ascending experience of one-sided defeat during sword forging.

Recalling the extreme pleasure and “fear” of being utterly dominated, Yin Xinsu couldn't help but glare at Xu Jinhuan, though her eyes held no real anger, only a hint of coquettishness and anticipation.

Speaking of which, it had been a long time since she experienced this brat's Chaotic Hammer Cloak Rod Technique; she missed it a little... Recalling the fear of being dominated, Yin Xinsu glared at Xu Jinhuan in slight annoyance.

Xu Jinhuan paid no attention, simply controlling the warship to accelerate relentlessly.

One hour later.

The ancient warship of Taiyi Holy Land docked again, having reached another Immortal Dao Lineage.

Battle flags fluttered, and drums shook the heavens.

However, the area below was silent, without a single person coming out to fight.

Only the Sect Protecting Grand Formation of the Fentian Holy Land was continuously operating, completely obscuring the situation within, making it impossible to see clearly.

This sight left the people of Taiyi Holy Land on the warship puzzled.

“Huh? What's going on? Didn't Fentian Holy Land claim to be the number one potential stock today, boasting they would surpass our Taiyi Holy Land within three thousand years and enter the top three Immortal Dao Lineages in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces? Why is there not a single person coming out to fight?!”

“How strange! I have Cultivated for several millennia and have never seen such a bizarre sight. Could it be that they fled long ago after hearing the news?”

“Look quickly! There's a flaw in the Fentian Holy Land's Sect Protecting Grand Formation!”

Following the exclamation, everyone looked over and were startled to discover a man-sized loophole in the Fentian Holy Land's Sect Protecting Grand Formation. It looked as if a powerful expert had broken the Formation and charged inside.

“Since there's a gap, it means this Grand Formation exists only in name and is now just an empty shell!”

A Grand Elder's eyes flashed with brilliance. He immediately leaped up, gathered massive Divine Power in his palm, and slammed it onto the Sect Protecting Grand Formation.

Crack... The vast Formation covering hundreds of millions of miles shattered instantly, turning into countless streaks of light and disappearing between heaven and earth.

Hiss!—

The next moment, upon seeing the situation inside the Fentian Holy Land clearly, the people of Taiyi Holy Land on the warship immediately gasped.

On the floating island, there were countless magnificent pavilions and towers, and endless palaces and Immortal Caves.

However, hanging upon these beautiful sights were countless severed heads—the heads of everyone in the entire Fentian Holy Land, neatly arranged.

A breeze blew past, causing the heads, large and small, to swing in the wind, a truly spectacular sight.

In the central plaza of the Fentian Holy Land, there was also a hill over ten thousand miles high. The surface of the hill was uneven and covered everywhere in dark red soil.

Looking closely, the dark red material was not soil, but congealed blood.

This was not a hill, but a gigantic Mound of Skulls piled up from the heads of billions of Cultivators and living beings!

Evil Qi soared into the sky!

Ugh!

Some Cultivators with poor psychological endurance almost threw up upon seeing this scene.

Looking at this scene, Xu Jinhuan rubbed his brow helplessly, his eyelids and temples twitching.

Damn, what exactly did this summoned Clone experience? To be able to do something so psychologically twisted!

The Clone summoned by the Transformation into Ten Thousand Ages technique is not a Clone in the absolute sense, but a possibility—a Xu Jinhuan from a timeline without the System and without the Eternal Chaos Body.

Although controlled by the will of Xu Jinhuan's main body, it possesses its own style and principles of action.

Xu Jinhuan himself hadn't anticipated this current scene.

“Besides, these heads are also energy! Just hanging them up and piling them up like this is far too wasteful!”

Xu Jinhuan, disappointed in his Clone's lack of resourcefulness, waved his hand through gritted teeth.

Instantly, the spectacle of skulls below vanished.

A trace of power was added to Xu Jinhuan's body, pushing his Cultivation forward.

After doing all this, he irritably kicked a Grand Elder standing next to him.

“Why are you still standing there stunned? Go collect the spoils of war!”

“Yes!”

Only then did the Grand Elder snap back to his senses, leading his Disciples down to get to work.

Beside him, Yin Xinsu looked at the Fentian Holy Land's floating island, which was soaring with Evil Qi, her eyes full of disbelief.

“Senior Sister, you lost.”

Xu Jinhuan wrapped his arm around her and said with a mischievous smile.

“A bet is a bet. You owe me a request now!”

Yin Xinsu returned to her senses. Feeling the aggressive large hand around her waist, her face immediately flushed.

“J-Junior Brother, what do you want to do?”

Xu Jinhuan didn't hesitate.

“Of course I want to.”

Yin Xinsu wanted to say something else, but her mouth was completely sealed.

“Mmmph!...”

...It was another hearty session of forging a sword.

After the sword forging ended, the Taiyi warship carrying Xu Jinhuan had already reached the next Immortal Dao Lineage.

Fortunately, this Clone wasn't so twisted; it merely cleared out all the living beings inside and destroyed all the Formation defenses.

The fifth, the sixth, the seventh... five days passed.

The warship of Taiyi Holy Land finally visited all sixteen Dao Lineages, leaving no survivors.

As for why there were sixteen?

Naturally, Xu Jinhuan took the opportunity to help Fang Qingyao get revenge and simultaneously rescued the last survivors of the Fang Family.

After this incident, Fang Qingyao's gaze toward Xu Jinhuan became even stickier, constantly lingering, wishing she could even give her life to this man.

Upon returning to Eastern Emperor Mountain, the girl couldn't wait, even dragging Yin Xinsu along to demonstrate an unconventional path to her Senior Sister... Xu Jinhuan properly educated Fang Qingyao, teaching her the importance of cherishing life.

And he helped Yin Xinsu temper her Sword Heart.

Xu Jinhuan walked out of the room feeling satisfied, found a place to rest, and tallied the gains from this Immortal War journey.
