312: Chapter 313 Hunting the Demon Ancestor!

The total war between the Middle Heaven and the Yao Race was far more brutal than anyone could have imagined.

In just three days, the number of Cultivators and Yao who died on the battlefield had already surpassed the total number of fallen Cultivators in the Middle Heaven over the past several centuries.

Elite Disciples from countless Holy Lands were reduced to withered bones in this meat-grinder of a war.

Powerful Magic Treasures that were rarely seen on ordinary days were thrown onto the battlefield as if they cost nothing.

Then, in the next moment, they would be blasted into fragments by even more powerful Divine Abilities and killing formations.

The entire world seemed as if it were being beaten into collapse.

Just as the battle situation fell into a stalemate, a Return to One Realm Demon Ancestor from the Yao Race side could finally no longer hold back.

"Mystic Ice: Absolute World Freeze!"

A cold, angry shout echoed from deep within the demon clouds.

Mystic Ice Demon Ancestor had made his move!

With just a casual wave of his hand, a monstrous sea of ice capable of freezing even the Soul descended from the sky, sweeping toward the human military formation!

Wherever the sea of ice passed, whether it was a powerhouse of the Myriad Laws Realm or a mighty expert of the Guixu Realm, as long as they were swallowed by that sea of ice...

Their bodies would instantly turn into a crystalline ice sculpture, and then, in the next moment, shatter with a bang, their form and spirit completely extinguished!

With just one move, thousands of human elites perished on the spot!

Following that, Changtian Demon Ancestor, Qingxuan Demon Ancestor, and the other five Demon Ancestors all appeared together. Those six world-destroying, terrifying auras converged, shaking the entire sky!

Atop the city wall, Gu Changsheng was not at all surprised by this.

He knew very well that the reproductive capacity of the Yao Race was far lower than that of the Human Race; every Yao powerhouse was a precious treasure.

With such tragic losses, it would be strange if these Old Ancestors of the Yao Race could still sit still.

"Everyone, it is time for us to act."

Daoist Venerable Qingxu took a deep breath and spoke to the various Sect Leaders beside him.

Before his voice had even faded, he was the first to soar into the sky to meet those six overbearing Demon Ancestors.

The other Sect Leaders followed suit one after another.

Gu Changsheng glanced at the person beside him, the somewhat pale-faced new Sect Leader of the Qingming Alchemy Mansion, True Lord Shenhuang.

He knew that with True Lord Shenhuang's half-step Return to One strength, participating in a battle of this level carried extremely high risks; the slightest carelessness would lead to the same fate as Elder Xuanyao.

Thus, he also took the initiative to ascend, saying calmly, "Sect Leader Song, you stay here to oversee the command. I will go and meet those old fellows."

His gaze seemed to penetrate the endless Void Realm, locking directly onto the most vast and ancient aura among the six Demon Ancestors—Changtian Demon Ancestor.

Emotion-Extinguishing Mysterious Fire, here I come.

More than ten great Cultivators of the Return to One Realm level gathered high in the sky. That terrifying pressure caused the armies of the two races fighting below to feel a sense of suffocation.

There was no need for words between the two sides.

In the next moment, the battle began!

The various Sect Leaders each sought out their own opponents.

As for Gu Changsheng, his figure flashed and he appeared directly in front of Changtian Demon Ancestor.

He held his fingers like a sword, and a brilliant dharma sword condensed, slashing down toward Changtian Demon Ancestor's head!

Changtian Demon Ancestor looked at this human junior who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, a flash of disdain appearing in his eyes.

He was conceited because he possessed the Emotion-Extinguishing Mysterious Fire, and his destructive power was the greatest among the six Demon Ancestors; he didn't place Gu Changsheng in his eyes at all.

With a casual wave of his hand, a massive flame formation capable of incinerating all things completely swallowed Gu Changsheng.

However, in the next moment, the disdain on his face turned into endless shock.

He discovered that after swallowing the opponent, his unfailing flame formation had instantly lost control!

Instead, it was reverse-controlled by the opponent using a method he couldn't understand, turning into a giant flame cage that trapped him inside!

"What do you want to do?!" Changtian Demon Ancestor was both shocked and furious.

The response was that flame cage, which hijacked him at a speed beyond his imagination and flew rapidly toward the Extraterrestrial Starry Sky!

Boom!

The flame formation shattered loudly within the Extraterrestrial Starry Sky.

The figures of Gu Changsheng and Changtian Demon Ancestor reappeared.

The two faced each other from a distance in the cold, silent Extraterrestrial Starry Sky.

Being forcibly hijacked to the Extraterrestrial Starry Sky by a human junior using his own Divine Ability...

For Changtian Demon Ancestor, this was an unprecedented humiliation!

"Junior! You seek death!"

Changtian Demon Ancestor let out an angry roar. His aged body instantly became tall and straight, and his muscles bulged like coiled dragons.

He pushed his extremely powerful Yao Physical Body to the limit and threw a punch, carrying a terrifying power capable of blowing up a star, smashing fiercely toward Gu Changsheng!

However, Gu Changsheng did not dodge or avoid it. He likewise raised his fist and met it head-on.

"Boom!"

Two fists of completely disproportionate size collided violently in the cold Universe.

Changtian Demon Ancestor only felt an irresistible, terrifying force transmit from the opponent's fist.

His entire being was like he had been struck head-on by a Primordial Divine Mountain. He flew backward uncontrollably for tens of thousands of miles, spitting out a large mouthful of golden demon blood before barely stabilizing his figure.

He stared fixedly at the white-robed youth across from him, who remained calm and composed, without even a single wrinkle on the corner of his clothes, his heart filled with horror.

How is this possible?!

He was a Return to One Realm Demon Ancestor, and the strength of his Physical Body was enough to be ranked in the top three in the entire Xuantian True Domain!

He had actually lost to a human junior, whose bone age appeared to be less than a hundred years, in a contest of pure strength?!

"Again!"

Changtian Demon Ancestor refused to believe it and launched another killing move.

One of his palms expanded against the wind, turning into a giant palm large enough to blot out the stars, slapping down toward Gu Changsheng's head!

At the same time, the dao patterns around him circulated frantically, manifesting sky-filling phantoms of gods and demons that attacked Gu Changsheng from all directions!

However, facing this world-destroying offensive, Gu Changsheng still just casually waved his hand.

Those seemingly terrifying god and demon phantoms were like bubbles under the sun, instantly smashed to pieces.

Immediately after, he likewise raised a palm and struck down against that giant palm!

"Crack!"

The crisp sound of bone breaking sounded particularly ear-piercing in the lonely Extraterrestrial Starry Sky.

Changtian Demon Ancestor's giant palm that covered the sky was actually split in half by Gu Changsheng's strike!

What made him even more terrified was that while Gu Changsheng split his arm, he also used a bizarre power he couldn't understand...

To completely erase the Dao Principles condensed within the flesh and blood of his severed arm!

This meant that this arm of his was completely ruined! It could never be repaired again!

"You... you can actually erase my flesh and blood that has been fused with dao patterns?!" Changtian Demon Ancestor was completely shocked.

He finally realized that the strength of the young man before him had already surpassed his own!

"It seems I can only use that move."

A flash of determination appeared in Changtian Demon Ancestor's eyes. He no longer held anything back and directly sacrificed his strongest trump card!

"Emotion-Extinguishing Mysterious Fire, come forth!"

A crimson-gold flame slowly drifted out from between his eyebrows.

As soon as that flame appeared, the surrounding void began to warp and burn violently!

"Junior, to be able to die under this second-ranked Emotion-Extinguishing Mysterious Fire, you can be considered proud enough!"

Changtian Demon Ancestor poured all of his demon Qi into that flame.

A sky-filling sea of fire instantly swept across millions of miles of the starry sky, even burning pitch-black cracks into this patch of void!

Within the sea of fire, a Fire God phantom tens of thousands of zhang tall, holding lightning and treading on flames, condensed into form.

It struck out with a giant palm carrying endless flames and lightning, pressing down toward Gu Changsheng!

This blow was enough to completely obliterate any powerhouse below the Middle Stage of the Return to One Realm!

However, facing this final killing move, Gu Changsheng just slowly took out a sword from the System space.

He raised the sword above his head and casually slashed down at the pressing Fire God phantom.

A brilliant sword light hundreds of thousands of miles long traversed the galaxy.

Wherever the sword light passed, that sky-filling sea of fire capable of incinerating all things instantly melted away.

That overbearing Fire God phantom couldn't even last for a single breath before being split in two by that sword light and completely shattered!

Changtian Demon Ancestor stared blankly at this scene, his entire being feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

All of his pride, all of his trump cards, appeared so laughable and so vulnerable before the opponent.

He looked at the white-robed youth holding the divine sword and walking toward him step by step. In those cloudy old eyes, endless fear and despair finally surfaced.

With a voice that was dry to the extreme, he asked the question that had been circling in his heart for a long time, trembling.

"Are you kidding me? You... just what kind of monster are you?!"
