High Martial Arts: I Travel Through Heaven and Earth Through Dreams

In an instant, the black-clad immortal king's aura reached its peak.

Black halberd light swept across the sky and earth, each strike bringing forth a vast source of darkness that continuously suppressed and devoured the silver sword light of the future body.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The fierce clash of weapons resounded through the sky like a storm.

Above the sky, the two equally matched silver and black streams of light now showed a noticeable tilt.

The black light representing the Black-Clad Immortal King transformed into a towering torrent, cascading down.

The silver streak of the future form was compressed into a small area and could only passively wave its wooden paddle for defense.

The heavy shackles of cause and effect made it feel as if there was a thick barrier of the Great Dao separating the future self from the laws of heaven and earth every time he mobilized them.

His moves were still incredibly skillful, but the killing power contained within them was reduced by more than 30% by the rules of cause and effect!

"boom--!"

The black-clad Immortal King seized the pause caused by the causal suppression in the connection of the future body's laws, and his Immortal King battle power exploded. His halberd fell like an ancient divine mountain, and heavily smashed into the wooden paddle that the future body was blocking!

An incredibly violent force exploded instantly!

The future body shuddered, and like a falling silver comet, it was smashed by the halberd and sent flying tens of thousands of miles away!

His flying figure carved a dark trench, stretching for thousands of miles, into the space along his path. Only when he reached the depths of the sky did his future self touch the void with his toes, forcibly dissipating the violent thrust and stabilizing his body.

At this moment, his old raincoat fluttered in the wind, and the silver radiance of the laws flowing around him was indeed much dimmer than before.

"Hahahaha! Lin Hanzhou! Do you see that? This is what happens when you go against the tide!"

The black-clad Immortal King stood proudly in the center of the sky, tens of thousands of miles away, his black halberd pointing diagonally at the heavens, his whole body radiating black energy, exuding arrogance to the extreme.

He looked down at his future self, thousands of miles away, then glanced at Lin Hanzhou, whose face was solemn, on the wooden boat below, and let out a wild and unrestrained laugh.

"I must say, you are truly stunning. If we were in the same era, I might really have to give way today."

"But in this time and space, the law of cause and effect is your Achilles' heel!"

"Your combat power is now suppressed. What makes you think you can contend with me?"

"Today, not only will you be annihilated, body and soul, but your weak self will also have no chance of survival!"

"Lin Hanzhou, you're dead! No one in all the realms can save you!"

The sound roared, echoing endlessly throughout the entire realm of time like thunder, causing the river to surge wildly and the heavens and earth to tremble.

However, faced with the arrogant clamor of the Black-Clad Immortal King, which was enough to intimidate all the Immortal Kings in the heavens, the future avatar, located tens of thousands of miles in the sky, did not show the slightest panic or despair.

He reached out and gently brushed off non-existent dust from his tattered raincoat, then pressed down on his straw hat and lifted the brim that covered most of his face.

Then, the future version of himself raised his head, his deep, ocean-like eyes looking at the black-clad Immortal King who was laughing wildly, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth with a mocking smile.

"Really?"

These three simple words, lightly piercing through the raging storm, clearly reached the ears of the Black-Clad Immortal King.

The black-clad immortal king's arrogant laughter abruptly stopped.

For some reason, looking at the mocking smile on the future body's face that didn't look like a death struggle at all, the black-clad immortal king's heart inexplicably skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart without warning.

"You dare to bluff even when you're about to die! I'd like to see what kind of trouble you can cause now that your strength is suppressed!"

The black-clad immortal king suppressed his unease and shouted sharply, his halberd once again bursting forth with a blinding black light.

But this time, the future self did not pick up that wooden paddle again.

Under the bewildered gaze of the black-clad immortal king, the future self naturally reached into the inner garment of his straw raincoat.

The next moment, he pulled something out of his pocket.

It was a golden scroll that looked like it had been through many years.

The scroll was tightly bound together and was about two feet long.

Although it has not yet been unfolded, its material is already evident to the naked eye.

It was paper meticulously woven from the fibers of ancient immortal plants that had long since disappeared from the world!

The paper surface is faintly illuminated by shimmering golden light, like stars undulating on a painting.

Even more astonishingly, the instant the scroll was taken out by the future incarnation, before the seal on the scroll was even broken, a tremendous power that plunged the entire Time Realm into absolute silence overflowed from the gaps in the scroll like a vast tidal wave!

That is... an ineffable, supreme Dao essence!

That was the aura of supreme laws belonging to the level of an Immortal Emperor!

"boom!"

The black energy and storms that were originally rampant in the realm of time melted away instantly the moment this aura was released, as if they had encountered their natural enemy!

Even the turbulent river of time miraculously calmed down at this moment, the water no longer churning, as if the entire river had been suppressed by this majestic aura!

All sounds in the world vanished at that moment.

"This...this is?!"

Ten thousand miles away, the black-clad immortal king, who was originally carrying a black halberd and preparing to pounce, was struck dumb the moment he saw the golden scroll!

His face, shrouded in darkness, turned deathly pale in an instant, and his crimson pupils contracted violently to the size of pinholes, his eye sockets almost bursting open!

His previously overwhelming arrogance and murderous intent vanished in an instant, replaced by an extreme panic and despair from the depths of his soul!

As a Celestial King who has lived for countless eras, with his vast knowledge and experience, how could he not recognize the source of this aura?

This is clearly the aura of the supreme being in the human race, the one who attained the highest status through the Dao of Painting—the Immortal Emperor Mo Yuan!

Even if this is just a painting casually scribbled down by the Immortal Emperor Mo Yuan, it still contains a genuine imperial decree that transcends all other laws!

"The painting of Immortal Emperor Mo Yuan?! How...how do you have something like this?!"

The black-clad immortal king let out a piercing scream, his voice distorted and broken by extreme terror.

He never expected that this Immortal of the Mortal World not only possessed extraordinary strength, but also carried a trump card personally crafted by the Immortal Emperor!

That was an attack from a Celestial Emperor!

Let alone a Celestial King giant who is empowered by a wisp of the Emperor's Law, even a Quasi-Celestial Emperor in his prime would only be reduced to ashes when faced with a scroll of Celestial Emperor's decree!
