"boom!!!"
Within a tiny, immeasurable unit of time, Jiang Mo unleashed his power to shatter mountains, blasting the air apart with a deafening tremor, and slamming his fist into his ancestor's chest.
"Pfft!"
Golden blood splattered in the void, the ancestor's ribs snapped, his internal organs were severely injured, his eyes rolled back and his limbs twitched uncontrollably from a single punch, and his body slammed into the barrier like a cannonball.
"call out--!"
Jiang Mo gave him no chance to catch his breath and attacked in an instant, throwing another punch, but was thwarted.
"roll!"
The ancestor's angry rebuke, coupled with the excruciating pain that spread throughout his internal organs, caused his face to turn ashen, and veins bulged out like wriggling earthworms. He completely lost his composure and, before even wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, hastily defended himself.
As it grasped the void in front of it with one hand, a massive amount of air swirled at high speed, contracting towards the center to form a colorless wall of air.
"boom!!"
Jiang Mo's fist slammed into it, creating countless jagged cracks.
This shocking sight caused the ancestor to stagger backward. In the clash of forces, the white-haired youth before him seemed more like a monster in human skin.
"boom!!"
Even a stalemate of half a second was difficult to maintain before the colorless air wall collapsed, dispersing into a chaotic mass of air.
The ancestor narrowly avoided a headshot, still shaken, and even his breathing became rapid.
Chapter 168 The Opportunity for Transformation
"You shouldn't be able to activate the abilities of fifteen different strange Gu at the same time, right?"
Jiang Mo stared at his ancestor with great interest. A white flame rose into the air and condensed into the shape of an armor-piercing cone. With a flick of his wrist, he threw it out, piercing through the void and shooting towards the target with a sharp screech.
"Humph!"
"Killing you is enough."
The ancestor, whose sore spot had been touched, immediately activated the Gu worm marks branded on his collarbone, and a new ability was revealed. The shadow that covered the sky and the sun, like a shimmering ocean, overturned and swallowed the shimmering white armor-piercing cone.
"boom!"
Two completely different forces collided and devoured each other. With an absolute numerical advantage, the shadow forcefully slowed down the armor-piercing cone's attack, allowing the accompanying flames to burn it. They were locked in a stalemate, and it was difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time.
The ancestor's killing intent was chilling, and his eyes were fierce. That heavy punch just now had indeed ignited his anger. If it were a so-called master of poison and gu, he would have already died in the Northwest.
"You brute, do you really think I'm afraid to fight you hand-to-hand?"
The ancestor chuckled and said that it would use the purest martial arts, forged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, to show this arrogant and domineering fellow just how vast the world truly is.
Whether you're afraid or not, it won't stop me from turning you into a pulp.
Jiang Mo's skin was frosty white. He did not transform into Qi, but instead greatly enhanced his original physical strength and five senses through the reverse life state.
"Mountain-Shaking Gu..."
“Mirage Gu…”
The ancestors chanted special incantations; the unfamiliar, ancient syllables sounded particularly strange, not like human language at all.
As it awakened the two strange Gu Dao traces within its body using a secret method, the former, 'Shaking Mountain,' amplified its flesh and bones several times over, causing its body to swell up, as if it possessed infinite power that it could release at will.
The latter, 'Mirage', is a highly ranked rare Gu, and it is in no way inferior to the Longevity Gu, which extends lifespan.
Its function is to switch between the real and the illusory, causing the user's body to be in both 'illusory' and 'real' states simultaneously. When an enemy's killing move is aimed at the user's 'illusory' state, it can be easily avoided. At the same time, the user can counterattack from the 'real' state.
In short, with the blessing of the Mirage Gu, the ancestor was fearless in fighting against opponents of equal strength. It was an untouchable entity that could harm its enemies at will.
"Come here, junior."
With both Gu gu activating simultaneously, the ancestor's arrogance soared, its aura becoming tyrannical as it faced the enemy in its strongest form.
Jiang Mo clenched his fists and sneered, "I couldn't ask for more."
Even though it noticed the strange change in its physical strength, which had increased several times over, and the mysterious state it had entered, it was not afraid at all; on the contrary, its fighting spirit was high.
"Old ghost, you must risk your life to let me have my fill."
"You brat, how dare you be so arrogant!"
The ancestor grinned incessantly, its entire body swirling with silver-gray true qi, wild and powerful, poised to strike at any moment, like a bolt of lightning.
"boom!"
With a whip kick, like a swung axe, it struck Jiang Mo's brain.
The aura of death suddenly descended, and the amplified senses stung faintly. Jiang Mo dodged without hesitation.
"call out--"
"boom!"
In an instant, a domineering burst of energy swept across the sky, striking the barrier behind it and causing it to tremble repeatedly, demonstrating the immense power of the attack.
"how?!"
Are you afraid of me?
The ancestor relentlessly pursued him, launching attack after attack, but all his attacks were evaded. Although he was fast, there was always an insurmountable gap between him and Jiang Mo. It was precisely that slight difference that caused him to miss his target repeatedly.
During the chase, Jiang Mo gradually realized the problem. He decisively focused his Qi on his brain and internal organs, while keeping the rest of his torso unchanged.
Almost instantly, the signs of death receded like the tide.
This is the end.
Jiang Mo recalled that initial whip kick and had a guess. He chose to fight all-out to verify it. If it was really as he thought, then the monster in front of him would undoubtedly be the best whetstone for his cultivation.
"Old Ghost, come here!"
Faced with a barrage of punches and kicks, Jiang Mo was in high spirits. He took a step forward, used the same trick again, and suddenly gathered power in his right fist to clash head-on with the opponent.
"Ah."
The ancestor's palm strike was as swift as lightning. Under the reversal of reality and illusion by the Mirage Gu, it directly pierced through Jiang Mo's fist bone. When it reached the elbow joint, it suddenly burst out with force, its five fingers gripping the joint and pulling hard.
"!"
Jiang Mo's pupils dilated suddenly, revealing not fear, but joy.
Yes! This is exactly what he wanted, just as he predicted!
His body leaned forward uncontrollably, and the ancestor seized this rare opening, raising his heavy knee and slamming it into Jiang Mo's chest. Flesh and blood deformed, and several ribs shattered into dust.
"boom!"
Without pausing, the ancestor gathered true qi in his right fist and struck Jiang Mo's abdomen with terrifying force, creating a cruel, bloody hole.
"boom!!!"
Jiang Mo's figure flew backward like a shooting star, barely suppressing the joy in his heart.
The minor injuries had no effect on him, who had cultivated the Ancient Crossing Spirit-Breaking Curse. Moreover, he was in the triple rebirth state, and his flesh and blood wounds would heal in an instant.
Even though he was covered in blood, Jiang Mo didn't care at all.
Since breaking through the bottleneck of the second level and entering the third level, his physical body has become increasingly indestructible. It is almost impossible to hone it in battle. Looking across the entire martial arts world, he cannot find anyone who can hurt him.
Now, in the southern borderlands, an old monster who has traversed the long river of time can injure his body at will, which is the best opportunity for him to cultivate.
Through rigorous training and tempering, the boundless potential hidden within the physical body is unleashed, pushing one's limits to the limit. This is the fundamental reason why Jiang Mo was still willing to take the bait even after roughly guessing the other party's abilities.
Throughout the world, beyond the four seas, there may be other powerful beings of this caliber, but the outcome will be the same...
What kind of scene will unfold after this physical body breaks free from its shackles?!
Jiang Mo didn't know, but he was certain that once he got past this hurdle, he would probably never find a similar whetstone again.
"It didn't feel good, did it?"
The ancestor walked slowly, a knowing smile playing on his lips.
"You who come after me, you don't have the right to be arrogant. Unfortunately, you've met me."
"Today, I will take everything from you and kill all your followers."
"Is that so? You think you can do it?"
"Are you out of your mind? You good-for-nothing who can only survive by possessing members of your clan, yet you dare to talk about killing me?"
Jiang Mo watched as the battle outside the barrier came to an end, and he laughed heartily, thoroughly enjoying himself.
"Your last remaining henchmen have also been beheaded. How long can you hold out?"
The ancestor turned his head, his gaze passing through the barrier, and saw the six standing figures and two familiar heads that had rolled off the barrier. He showed little emotion.
After thousands of years of erosion, these people who share the same bloodline with it are, in the end, nothing more than tools to find a vessel for it.
Thinking of this, it sighed softly, not out of regret for the deaths of the two priests and elders, but because it couldn't help feeling a little melancholy at seeing the Luowu Abyss, which it had painstakingly built, perish. However, this feeling was fleeting.
"No problem."
"I am one person, and I am a race."
The ancestor muttered to itself, regarding the six people outside the barrier as domestic fowl to be slaughtered at will, and said to Jiang Mo:
“I’ve memorized their scent. After you die, none of them will escape.”
"No, you are nothing special. Your people are already on their way to the underworld. Don't keep them waiting."
Jiang Mo stood up with a faint smile, unafraid of the mirage's intimidation. He didn't even bother to repair his injuries. Instead, he waved slightly, as if playing with a monkey or a dog, signaling his ancestor to continue.
Chapter 169 Who is the pinnacle of humanity?
Beside the ruins, the remains of Granny Liu and the Great Elder were corroded by Gu poison and germs.
The six people, led by Gu Xuanche, were all injured and panting heavily, exhaling wisps of white breath from their mouths and noses. Thick blood had stained their clothes red.
In a desperate clash of attacks, they outnumbered the two priests three to one and defeated them, securing victory on this battlefield.
However, at this moment, their faces were solemn, and they could only watch helplessly as the fierce battle raged within the barrier, unable to intervene.
The figure carrying all their hopes was covered in wounds and fighting a bloody battle, but he was no match for Luo Wuyuan's ancestor. He was once forced into a desperate situation, and his body was broken and battered, with multiple fractures and his flesh suspected of being invaded by Gu poison, festering and suppurating.
"boom!!"
"boom!!"
The two afterimages within the barrier clashed fiercely, keeping everyone on the edge of their seats.
Their pupils and brain nerves couldn't keep up with that absurd speed. The only thing they could notice was that after each separation, Jiang Mo's wounds increased, as if his body was about to collapse at any moment.
"We can't wait any longer."
The elderly men, their hands and feet turning cold from the sight, dared not delay and hurriedly said:
"That monster is too terrifying. Master Jiang alone cannot kill it... Everyone, follow us and charge in."
"Wait, no."
Chengzhen, still deep in thought, instinctively stopped them as they were about to enter the barrier, and advised them:
“Three seniors, it is not appropriate to go in now. With our cultivation level, going in will only cause trouble for our master, become a weakness, and allow us to be taken hostage by the monster.”
"But what should we do?"
Gu Xuanche felt uneasy, and his lips moved: "Are we just going to stand by and watch Sect Leader Jiang be tortured to death by that monster?"
"If we drag this out any longer, we have no chance of winning... Now is the best opportunity."
Yan Baili's face was full of worry. He had spent most of his life tempering his physical body, but compared with the two inside the barrier, he felt inferior.
A deep sense of powerlessness enveloped the three old men. They were well aware of their own strength and knew that once they entered the barrier, they might not even be able to withstand a single move.
However, the current situation is extremely urgent, and they have no choice. They can no longer care about life and death or gains and losses. After Jiang Menzhang's defeat, who in the entire Southern Frontier can withstand the sharpness of that monster?
"Senior brother, Uncle-Master... is about to collapse."
Lu Jin suddenly exclaimed, her face turning deathly pale.
In his vision, Jiang Mo was once again elbowed in the chest by the monster, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He looked like he was about to collapse, and even some of his frost-white hair had turned black, which was a sign that he was about to exit the reverse life state.
The horrific scene greatly shocked Lu Jin. It was the first time he had ever seen his martial uncle in such a sorry state, being driven back by the enemy and powerless to resist.
