Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 466 Space and Space

"Although I don't know what you, a human, have gone through to gain abilities even stronger than that vampire prince... you still can't withstand this attack!" Nordens sneered inwardly.

Mu Xiang could easily see through his thoughts. The vortex itself wouldn't necessarily injure him, but it was clearly a control skill. To jump into the control skill of the spirit tablet and then say, "I'm not hurt," would be incredibly stupid.

However, this vortex also made Mu Xiang somewhat concerned. His self-created Water Moon Pot Heaven and Cloud Han Return to Ruins are both related to space. However, the former relies more on Ji Yue's "intention" and uses a massive amount of energy to construct the sword light, thus forming a method of trapping and killing in one. The latter uses violent intention and force to forcibly pull energy, engulf space, and thus achieve the effect of all things being like water, flowing back to the source.

These sword techniques, created by Mu Xiang himself, allowed him to reach a higher level and glimpse the path to the future. After all, self-created skills have no limitations on their application; there's no such thing as incomplete application… For the creator, it's always 100% effective, and it grows stronger along with the creator!
The vortex before him was also a technique related to space. As a move used by a Spirit Realm expert, this skill's mechanism was perhaps more complete and closer to space itself. This was what Mu Xiang cared about; he memorized this feeling, perhaps to use it to improve his own skills in the future.

Although Mu Xiang's current influence on space is more of a transformation of sheer force, with countless instances of consumption, waste, and underutilization, he has nonetheless grasped its essence. This is the nature of infinite diversity; the methods mastered beforehand may not be comparable to those of stronger beings, but once developed further, they often become stronger, if not weaker.

What gives Mu Xiang confidence is that... his current methods are not necessarily inferior to Nordens'!
Mu Xiang held the sword in one hand and poured energy into the other. The next moment, the Falling Sun and Hanging Rainbow erupted, and the entangled golden ripples and the Limitless Sword Qi wrapped around the Clear Moon and shot out, directly piercing into the place where the vortex and the Water Moon Pot Heaven were fighting.

Although Falling Sun Hanging Rainbow doesn't have as complex a mechanism as Water Moon Pot Heaven or Cloud Milky Way Return to Ruins, when Mu Xiang uses it, even if it's just a simple attack skill, it's not to be underestimated.

The rainbow rushed into the swirling vortex, joining the cage of sword light, and then an even more dazzling moonlight burst forth from it.

Nordens frowned slightly, then clenched his other fist, causing the surging double vortex to expand again, with the outer edge closing in on Mu Xiang and the inner circle causing the cage of blade light to tremble.

"Do you think you can beat me in a contest of energy?" Nordens said in a deep voice. "The difference between a demigod and a demigod is not difficult to overcome with brute force, but the quality and quantity of your energy do not seem to be enough to suppress me."

However, as he spoke, the trident, enveloped in a sea-blue light, trembled slightly, and the light on it deepened even further.

Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses, and his body was once again enveloped in golden light: "Stop talking nonsense. You're not suppressing it with energy itself... it's space. Although it's a space you temporarily created, it can still shield my energy, right?"

"So what? Your previous move, while having some spatial implications, couldn't have achieved this much," Nordens said with a sneer.

"I think you've been stuck in front of the memorial tablet for too long, unable to go up or down, and it's damaged your brain," Mu Xiang said sarcastically. "Who said that to break this move, you have to use the same method?"

Nordens' face darkened at this remark, and he shouted, "Then I'd like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve?"

In truth, his expression was merely an act. Mu Xiang was provoking him, but wasn't he also trying to provoke Mu Xiang? If Mu Xiang dared to make any contact with the vortex, the halberd in his hand would be enough to either kill or cripple Mu Xiang.

Mu Xiang smiled disdainfully, and then, to Nordens's astonishment and delight, suddenly rushed into the vortex!
"Arrogant brat, you're dead!" Nordens laughed inwardly, the azure light transforming into a chilling deep blue, and then the trident in his hand shot out explosively. Space itself was torn apart before the strike even began; a blow unleashed from a spiritual core was difficult for even an equal to handle. The already chaotic dark void was cleaved into a grotesque arc by this attack, and writhing darkness attempted to repair the cracks, only to be instantly shredded by the remaining force.

The double vortex began to vibrate at this moment, but Nordens' expression suddenly changed. Why had the distant vortex undergone such a spatial-tear-like change before the trident even arrived?

The inner and outer vortexes shattered at this moment, torn apart by the forces within, and then rolled forward, like a twisted barrier, blocking the halberd strike.

"The Milky Way returns to its void!"

Mu Xiang roared, and the Cloud Han Return to Ruins erupted within the vortex-constructed space. The spatial tearing from the inside out directly destroyed this temporary, artificial space, which was then forced outwards by the violent sword intent and force. And that point was precisely where the tip of the Ji Yue Blade was pointing!
This time, the Cloud River Returns to the Void is even more powerful than before... because the previous Falling Sun and Hanging Rainbow wasn't meant to break the vortex, but rather to maintain Mu Xiang's energy within it. Now, with the two actions complementing each other, it naturally unleashes even greater power.

When another piece of interfered space appeared in the vortex, the simulated stability was destroyed, and then the blade tip, which swept up the energy of both sides and the vast space, blocked the trident.

Energy and space were annihilated by the accumulated power of the spirit tablet, but even more energy and space continued to surge towards this point. The trident could not break through the blockade, and could only clash wildly, unleashing a terrifying impact that then transformed into a tearing sound that echoed far and wide. Beyond this trembling dark void and turbulent energy flow, countless distorted entities emerged, surrounding it from all directions.

Nordens frowned, and an aura emanated from him, causing some entities that had been targeting him to change direction and head towards Zheng Zha.

However, no one dared to directly enter the area of ​​that terrifying fluctuation.

Nordens reached out to send more divine power, but then he sensed that the aura of some twisted beings was turning towards him.

"Hmm?" Nordens hesitated for only a moment, then grinned maliciously. "The same old trick?"

The azure light around him converged in front of his chest, and a wave suddenly rose up, blocking the golden light.

Mu Xiang caught the wave with his punch, then smiled, and a strange fluctuation of spiritual energy emanated from him: "Look behind you."

Nordens was horrified. The next moment, an exaggeratedly large blade pierced through his back, turning the waves on his chest into nothingness!
