Ten thousand I am across the heavens

The Ghostly Demon Lord tried many times, but each time he teleported to launch a surprise attack, the enemy detected him. Even using futuristic technology, he couldn't escape, because the enemy's detection technology also originated from the future.

Perhaps he should continue trying. With time, he could gradually find weaknesses. After all, in terms of raw power, even if all their strength were concentrated in one person, they still wouldn't be a match in a direct confrontation. By searching for weaknesses over a long period, he could find one or two loopholes in their reconnaissance. Then, by sheer luck, he could occasionally kill one or two people by exploiting those loopholes; there's still a chance he could manage it.

This would inevitably take a considerable amount of time. Completely annihilating these invisible guardians would require several months. The number of invisible guardians arriving to reinforce them during this time would likely already exceed the total number he had killed. And if the stalemate continued for this long, the seal they had prepared would probably be fully completed. At that point, even if he were stronger, they would be forced to hold off the seal. Then it would simply be a matter of time, waiting for the seal to be broken, which was undoubtedly unacceptable for a transmigrator.

So, after several unsuccessful attempts, the Ghostly Demon Lord decisively chose a tactical retreat. Continuing to fight them here would likely mean he would never escape again. And with his current strength, he could become even stronger. Few in this era could stop him.

It switched to its ultimate attack, transforming into a semi-transparent quantum ghost. Then it moved swiftly, compressing its body to a length even smaller than a normal person's.

Like a tiny flying insect, it darted away with unimaginable speed and agility.

Upon seeing this, Lano immediately switched to his Legion's ultimate move, this time using two moves simultaneously. Although the effect would be slightly reduced due to compatibility issues, the two moves complemented each other, resulting in a speed boost that would be even greater in actual combat.

One of them is mass manipulation, which increases the mass of the entire legion by less than 1% compared to before. It's a lightning-fast killing move, a simple and brutal acceleration technique, but it has been refined to an unparalleled level. So much so that once it's unleashed, even with only the addition of lightning speed, the legion's speed will be so fast that even immortals would be left far behind.

At this moment, two complementary killing moves were used simultaneously. The legion's speed immediately increased to an incredible level, closely following behind the ghost. They continued the previous formation, never abandoning the seal.

However, the difference between the two is ultimately that of a collective versus an individual. The acceleration of an entire group depends on the slowest member, while an individual only needs to find a way to increase their own speed. Technically, it's far less difficult, and the Ghost Demon Lord also has an advantage in total energy. Its speed is still slightly faster, gradually widening the gap between it and the invisible guardians chasing behind.

If this continues, it won't be long before he can escape the constraints of marriage. Once he's freed from the suppression of his profound energy, and all his killing moves regain their full power, no one will be able to stop him from leaving.

If nothing unexpected happens, he can indeed escape, but for an being capable of traversing time at will, the entire future is a pre-planned scheme. Even if there are occasional unexpected variables, as long as the strength of these variables is strong enough, these uncontrollable entities can be suppressed within a certain range, guiding the future in the direction desired.

Currently, Lanno is sharing the variables of hundreds or thousands of invisible guardians, and the total number is absolutely enough to suppress the Ghost Demon Lord.

So at that very moment, as he fled, a pale beam of light flashed past. The Heavenly Court, which had been holding back, finally made its move. The Celestial Surveillance Tower activated its attack, capable of covering both sides. Because at that moment, both sides were precisely on the same line, the Celestial Surveillance Tower could pierce through them simultaneously in an instant. All of this was deliberately orchestrated by Lanno, who anticipated that once both sides were on the same level, the Heavenly Court would definitely try to reap the benefits and suffer a crushing defeat, allowing these two uncontrollable factors to be wiped out in one fell swoop.

The beam of light flashed by, confirming that it had not hit anything substantial. The pursuing legion flying through the sky was like a mirage, flickering briefly but never actually touching any solid matter.

It would be difficult for Lanno to deceive the Ghost Demon Lord's observation with a killer move from the future, but it would be much easier to deceive the Heavenly Court's observation. After all, there is a technological gap of hundreds of years between the two sides, and it is a hundred years of technological explosion. It's like a person from the 21st century trying to fool someone from the early 20th century with some fancy tricks and saying that they feel it is magic. It's not a difficult task at all.

The Heavenly Court's assessment of the legion's true location was off by several tens of meters. This distance wasn't actually far, at least not on a battlefield of this scale, but it was enough for them to avoid the direct hit of the beam of light. The aftershocks weren't a significant threat to the Invisible Guardian Legion at this moment. Especially since both sides were under the suppression of Xuan Qi at this moment, the power of the fatal killing move was also suppressed. Even if it hit head-on, it wouldn't necessarily result in the immediate annihilation of the entire army.

The Ghost Demon Lord had not anticipated that the Heavenly Court would act at this moment. From his perspective, Lanno and his group's disguises were almost meaningless; all their attempts to conceal and interfere with their positions were obvious to him. This meant he was unaware that the Legion and he were currently on the same firing line.

The beam of light instantly enveloped the Ghostly Demon Lord, but unfortunately, he was currently in the state of Quantum Ghost, even though he hadn't prepared a defensive attack beforehand. However, the Quantum Ghost state itself is one of the most effective defenses among normal defensive techniques.

The Death Strike was no match for him in his current state, especially since its power had been suppressed.

In an instant, the Ghostly Demon Lord's body turned deathly pale, and his entire body began to materialize. Just as he was about to solidify, pale white shadows emerged from his body. These imprisoned souls rushed towards the pillar of light, briefly holding him back and allowing him to successfully transform himself back into a quantum ghost. Although his body was still pale and the white areas had not yet recovered, with his abilities, these destructive forces at the level of destiny were not entirely irreparable; they just needed some time to heal.

Lanno clearly wouldn't give him that chance. At this stage, with his main body injured, he no longer had any advantage in speed. Lanno had already made up his mind to stick to his opponent without hesitation, even if it meant becoming the core of the formation and sealing him away.
