The mortal's candle dragon opens the sky

It was Xu Yang who rushed out, while Tian Kui and Yan Shu Zi, relying on the Ji Lin Secret Key in their hands, were temporarily hiding behind the interdimensional passage, waiting for the right moment to launch a sudden attack.

"Ok?"

The illusory figure glanced sideways. As a top-tier Dao Ancestor who had lived for countless years, even with hardship, he could still raise his combat skills to an extremely high level. He immediately recognized that the unfamiliar powerhouse was a Xuan Immortal who had refined his body with Star Essence. He sneered and turned his head away, no longer paying attention to him.

He descended from another realm, and the laws he cultivated could freely switch between the real and the illusory, allowing him to ignore most 'physical' attacks in the world. The power of his physical body and the star energy fluctuations he manifested were naturally also within the 'physical' realm!
So He didn't take that terrifying purple fist seriously at all.

And as He had predicted, the fist shrouded in purple starlight punched out a series of terrifying black holes hundreds of miles wide in the void, and the terrifying suction force of the spatial storm shattered the outer void inch by inch!

But aside from scattering the Weak Water Heaven and the black smoke, when the fist actually passed by the illusory figure, the latter simply disappeared for a moment before passing by the fist without suffering any harm.

From the moment the Xuanwu Dao Master took the initiative to attack until now, the battle has lasted for half a breath in the blink of an eye, and several large cracks have appeared in the Bagua Qiankun space, which is on the verge of collapse.

However, the two palace masters of Samsara Nine Netherworld, who were watching Shi Kongyu's attack from the sidelines, both showed strange expressions when they saw the fist. They clearly recognized Xu Yang, who had killed their avatars before, and thought to themselves, "You actually dare to come out? Don't you know that Yin Ming is here to capture you?"
"This dragon was unusually cautious before, hiding inside and not daring to come out. Why is it being so reckless today?"

"However, since this true dragon has walked right into the trap, why doesn't Yinming just capture it and leave?"

"Yinming takes pleasure in manipulating people's hearts. Who knows what he's up to? It's a pity that the origins of the spacetime and yin-yang laws on this true dragon are wasted. If he had died at Yinming's hands, he could have been refined into a supreme treasure. Hmph, in the end, it's the Heavenly Court that benefits! We haven't yet figured out the deeper reasons why he can cultivate the yin-yang laws!"

"What the Palace Master says is true. It is indeed a pity. If he had known this would happen, he would have been better off giving his life and body to us a few years ago! If he had used his power to fight against the Heavenly Court in the future, his death would not have been in vain! After all, the True Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Court have an eternal feud!"

Little did they know that the true dragon Yinming spoke of was not this one. True dragons at the Great Luo level or so were rare these days, and they had no idea that there were three more true dragons within the Jilin Void Realm.

While Shi Kongyu was fiercely attacking the outer barrier, he was also keeping an eye on everything around him. Although he did not recognize this unfamiliar Dao Ancestor, he was also somewhat suspicious and puzzled. He could only continue to attack with all his might while waiting for his good brother to come out.

The next instant, behind the purple starlight fist, a gigantic, purple-scaled giant, tens of thousands of feet tall, descended upon the Demon Realm. Upon its appearance, it used both hands and feet to sweep across the void dozens of times in an instant. Under its terrifying brute force, the area within hundreds of thousands of miles had already become a spatial turbulence.

But this time, the illusory figure was prepared and appeared more relaxed, letting the power ravage his 'body' as if he were in an empty space, like a flower in a mirror that could be seen but not touched. The illusory figure even had the leisure to send a mocking message to the Xuanwu Dao Master on the other side of the sky:

"Heh! Jiuyuan! Your True Spirit lineage really hasn't made any progress as always! Profound Immortals of this level died like dumplings being dropped into a pot on the day the Four Symbols Star Yuan Sect was wiped out! Judging from the refinement of his physical body, it must have been cultivated by you in recent years, right? Fine, since you're willing to die, I'll reluctantly accept him as well! You!"

The next moment, the illusory figure's playful voice transmission abruptly stopped, replaced by a terrible howl that resounded through the void. The dark smoke and dust that had been blocking the surrounding area and holding off the Weak Water Heavenly Marsh suddenly rolled inward and contracted, as if it were urgently trying to save its master.

Upon seeing this strange change, the Xuanwu Dao Master on the horizon had a bright look in his eyes, while Shi Kongyu and the Lord of the Samsara Palace both looked surprised.

All that could be seen was a cloud of countless wisps of black smoke, held tightly in the hand of a giant hand burning with a mysterious dark red flame. Deep within the black smoke was a blurry humanoid figure that kept turning into wisps of green smoke!

Under the scorching crimson flames, wisps of black smoke, like black blood, flowed from the seven orifices of the blurry humanoid figure, seemingly offering no resistance whatsoever. Meanwhile, countless wisps of black smoke howled past like ghosts, foxes, and wolves, with thousands upon thousands of eerie black Dao patterns flashing within them, resembling countless blinking demonic eyes, exceptionally cold and filthy. With each blink, they emitted streaks of black light that continuously impacted the crimson flames, attempting to reverse the corruption.

But the dark red flames continued to flicker as before, because more dark red flames were bursting out from Xu Yang's body, and a vast Reincarnation Nirvana Spirit Realm, spanning thousands of miles, had been established!
Caught off guard, with the spiritual domain separating the inside from the outside, Yinming's clone's ability to summon the Heavenly Dao was temporarily stripped away, and he had become a lamb to the slaughter!
This scene was exactly the same as when Xu Yang attacked the illusory figure with his physical body before, only the two sides were reversed! This was naturally Xu Yang using his Xuan Body as cover to unleash his true killing move, the Three Lives Nirvana True Fire!
Watching helplessly as the very essence of this demonic body was slowly refined and burned like firewood, Yinming surprisingly felt a long-forgotten sense of fear, and exclaimed in shock and anger:

"What kind of divine power is this? Transforming the essence of reincarnation into true fire?"

"Such a supernatural power of reincarnation actually exists in the world? You... are you also a true dragon? A reincarnated true dragon?"

"Are you a companion of that Nightmare Dragon?"

What are the Supreme Laws? The Three Thousand Great Daos interact and counteract each other. Some laws are inherently restrained by others, like water being contained by earth—one thing subdues another. However, the Three Supreme Laws are so named because of their uniqueness: they are not directly restrained by any Great Dao, and no law can completely avoid the power of the Three Supreme Laws. And coincidentally, the Law of Reincarnation is one of the laws in the True Immortal Realm, like the Law of Weak Water, that directly harms celestial magic. Furthermore, its power of Nirvana and rebirth can fundamentally dismantle the countless demon-tainted beings imprisoned by the 'Hidden Bright Dao Ancestor,' converting them and allowing them to return to the world.

It can be said that if it were any other Dao Ancestor incarnation, Xu Yang might have had to temporarily retreat, but this Heavenly Demon incarnation was completely suppressed by him!
In fact, if it weren't for the fear of exposing his other special abilities, Xu Yang would have used the End Flame to deal with the Heavenly Demon incarnation countless times more effectively. This is because the Destruction Origin is the superior source of all laws such as Heavenly Demons and Heart Demons, and it is also the monarch and undoubtedly the absolute nemesis!
However, since Yinming was merely a manifestation of demonic thought, and his true body remained safely hidden in the Central Immortal Realm, even destroying this avatar wouldn't significantly harm the other party. Why would Xuyang intentionally expose other laws? Perhaps in a few days, after Xuyang advances to the Profound Realm and truly elevates the Law of Destruction to the level of 'Merging with the Heavenly Dao,' the power of both sides will be sufficient to reveal this secret to Yinming. But for now, it's still possible...
With several layers of protection, including starlight and dragon scales, plus the Great Evolution Heavenly Divine Realm that had been activated to its limit within the Universe True Pivot, Xu Yang was not afraid that the other party would see through the secrets deep within his body.

But after all, he was facing an ancient Dao Ancestor. Xu Yang knew that too much talk would lead to mistakes. Hearing the incessant, demonic chatter of Yin Ming's demonic body, he guarded his mind and did not want to respond or release any divine power, lest he be corrupted and have his memories or emotions probed. He simply let out a cold laugh to himself:
"It's so noisy and wailing!"

With that, the giant hand squeezed hard, crushing the twisted figure in the billowing black dust into a cloud of swirling demonic dust!
The next moment, the surging Nirvana True Fire within the Spirit Realm was prepared and immediately swept upwards layer by layer. After a few moments, apart from the faint, cold, and filthy aura of death, most of the demonic dust within the Spirit Realm had been burned away, revealing countless demonic beings that made up the demonic dust. They all showed expressions of relief, bowed slightly to the rising sun, and then all disappeared into thin air!
Only a twisted, irregular black shadow, about ten feet tall and as thick as an ordinary person's arm, remained, still struggling to resist the onslaught of the Three Lives Nirvana True Fire! This was a crystallized demonic thought, the core of the demonic thought incarnation that governed the power of the heavenly demons, and also a true part of the Hidden Bright Dao Ancestor!

Bang! Boom! Just then, the Bagua Universe World in the distance finally shattered into a series of illusions of mountains, marshes, water, and fire under Shi Kongyu's continuous and frenzied attacks. However, the three people who broke out of the boundary did not have any happy expressions on their faces. They all looked quite dumbfounded!

They never expected that a top-tier Dao Ancestor would not only fail to succeed in his cross-realm attack, but also suffer such a humiliating defeat at the hands of a junior True Dragon, being at the mercy of him. If this were to spread, it would probably shock countless cultivators, even if this Dao Ancestor did not go all out and only sent an avatar!
Even though it was sealed within the Spirit Realm, the Heavenly Magic was most adept at reflecting the thoughts of countless beings and sensing the emotions of others. Its crystalline demonic thoughts clearly saw the expressions of Shi Kongyu and the other two outside. Enraged, it wished it could immediately use its true form to project the power of all its avatars from all the heavens and myriad realms. However, it was also unable to act so impulsively and could only threaten them viciously at the last moment:
"Little Dragon! You'd better watch out in the future, or you'll fall into my hands, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

"All bark and no bite! I'm talking about you! You coward, always hiding your true colors! If you have the guts, show your true form!"

Xu Yang pretended not to know the other party's identity, his face showing a mocking expression, as if he didn't take the other party's threat seriously at all. Before the other party could reply, the vast Reincarnation Spirit Domain, spanning thousands of miles, suddenly contracted inward, transforming into a crystal-clear dark red sphere that was extremely condensed, held in the giant palm, drowning out the faintly visible angry roar.

Yes, Xu Yang, who knew everything about the future, knew that Yin Ming was also a cunning old fox who planned his moves carefully. He was certain that the other party could not really come in his true form, but if he was wrong, then he could just escape back to Ji Lin Kong Jing!
At this moment, the Xuanwu Dao Master, who was leaning on a green pipe and shrouded in a hazy mist above his head, also appeared beside Xu Yang in a twisted manner. A bright smile appeared on his aged face. He patted Xu Yang's shoulder heavily and chuckled, "Good lad! It's been more than a hundred years since I last saw you. You've actually grown to this level!"

"With your support, it would be difficult for me not to make rapid progress!"

Xu Yang chuckled, but the next moment he felt that there was a power of the laws of heaven and earth in the palm of the Xuanwu Dao Master. A mustard seed space opened up in the blink of an eye was hidden in it, and floating inside was a giant dark green bottle that was a hundred feet tall and surrounded by thousands of creation crystals.

Xu Yang immediately understood. He remained outwardly calm, but a barely perceptible arc of silver light flashed on his shoulder, and he absorbed it into his body. The Hunyi True Pivot immediately began to circulate wildly, extracting the individual crystals of creation and placing them into the vicinity of a clear but somewhat illusory Five Elements light deep within his body.

Sensing the approach of so much power of creation, the Xuan Tian Treasure, which had been greatly damaged by Xu Yang's absorption of its power, immediately began to tremble wildly as if it were sentient. Without Xu Yang's prompting, it proactively released the Five Elements Divine Light, rushing towards the countless creation crystals in both directions!

At this moment, eight golden rays of time flowed down from an unknown place, and with time accelerated by thousands or even tens of thousands of times, the refining process was immediately condensed into short moments.

The aura of the Hunyuan Five Qi Wheel suddenly expanded wildly at an astonishing speed, and the Five Elements Dao Patterns that had been extracted to their limit were restored to more than a hundred in an instant!
Gu Dong 11 and Gu Dong 13 are estimated to recover to the peak number of 360, which is within half an incense stick's time! Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a month, but for Xu Yang, ten days is equivalent to half an incense stick's time!

This is the advantage of having a high-level expert on your side who doesn't need to cultivate in seclusion. The Heavenly Creation Dew, which normally dissipates in a day and night, can be stored for a long time after being refined into Creation Crystals or Dao Pills. When needed, it can serve as a crucial force to turn the tide! Especially for Xu Yang!

Having dealt with Yinming's clone, there were still three other ferocious late-stage Grand Luo cultivators waiting for him! Xuyang naturally wouldn't harbor any arrogance or complacency!

Feeling the rapid recovery of the Hunyuan Five Qi Wheel, Xu Yang felt even more confident. "You have three late-stage Daluo, and we have three second-grade Xuan Tian treasures! We also have a Heavenly Puppet that has recovered to its peak, hidden behind the spatial passage, ready to strike!"
Three against three! The advantage is on my side!

"Finally, I can stand before your true forms!"

Xu Yang and Xuanwu Dao Master stood side by side, their eyes filled with fighting spirit. Their auras continued to rise wildly. With only five hundred or so acupoints in his physical body, he was not at a disadvantage in the face of the Heavenly Fiend Prison Suppressing Demon Body with a thousand acupoints!

"Besides the laws of time, space, fire, and yin and yang, he can actually master the fundamental law of reincarnation? This kid is terrifying! Even though we overestimated him as much as possible, we still underestimated him!"

Shi Kongyu and Lunhui Jiuyou exchanged grave glances, both feeling somewhat trapped in a difficult situation. (End of Chapter)
