"If we don't help the sect leader... we're all going to die."
Will's face was as dark as a volcano about to erupt, and his words were full of warnings and threats.
In his view, even if the flames deep in Jiang Mo's brain wouldn't go out of control after Jiang Mo's death, those who had killed the monster clan had no chance of leaving alive.
Chengzhen stubbornly stuck to his own opinion, ignoring everyone's urging. He firmly believed that his uncle would not lose to the ancient monster inside the barrier.
Having reached the third level of rebirth, with just a thought, his injuries would instantly heal. Who could kill him? Who would dare to kill him? Even the monsters who have stood at the pinnacle of cultivation in the Southern Frontier since ancient times could not do it.
The only possibility is...
Chengzhen gradually realized what was happening and explained to the indignant crowd, "Uncle-Master has never been an arrogant person. There must be a reason why he did this."
“If he really couldn’t hold on, he wouldn’t leave his most lethal sword unused. Judging from the current situation, that old man Luo Wuyuan’s body is in a kind of ‘ethereal’ state, avoiding countless attacks from my master.”
"However, don't forget that your senior uncle's third level of reverse life cultivation can also transform his Qi into his entire body, so neither poison nor fist and foot killing moves can hit him."
Why doesn't he use it?
Before anyone could refute her statement, Chengzhen reiterated her position with a simple question:
"Trusting our senior uncle is the greatest help we can offer. Your unauthorized intervention may lead to unpredictable consequences."
"It's pointless for anyone to go in, no matter who it is. With such an insurmountable difference in strength, it won't affect the duel between the monster and my master."
Despite his persuasion, the group, already caught in a dilemma, stubbornly held their breath and chose to continue observing and remain inactive.
Inside the barrier, the ancestor maintained his peak condition without showing any signs of decline.
Within half an hour of its clansmen's deaths, it fought Jiang Mo hand-to-hand for thousands of rounds, gaining an absolute advantage, but it just couldn't completely kill him.
Looking at the bloodied and mangled figure struggling to stand up in the distance, the ancestor suddenly found it laughable, like the sun shining after rain, and exclaimed from the bottom of his heart: "You are remarkable."
"I will probably never forget a strong person like you in the years to come."
"If it were me a thousand years ago, I would have had little chance of winning against you. It's just a pity you were born in the wrong era..."
The response he received after speaking caused his ancestor to furrow his brow and feel uneasy.
"Your limit, including the so-called Longevity Gu, is only six types that can be used at the same time?"
Jiang Mo staggered to his feet and let out a long sigh of relief.
He felt extremely satisfied. Under the corrosive effects of several kinds of poisons and the martial arts attacks of his ancestors, his body was nearly crippled, with countless broken tendons and bones, and most of his flesh was pitted, withered and rotten.
That's why he got the feedback he wanted.
The blood and qi within the body surge forth in a continuous stream, vast as an ocean, nourishing the limbs, bones, and internal organs.
Without relying on reversal of life to repair injuries, by using the tempering of Gu poison, the physical body is reborn from destruction, moving towards perfection in one step, breaking through shackles, and releasing potential.
In the life-or-death confrontation, the ancestor showed no mercy. In addition to the three Gu worms, 'Mountain Shaker,' 'Mirage,' and 'Longevity,' Jiang Mo sensed three other unknown Gu worms that were causing him harm.
The remaining Gu worms were probably unusable; otherwise, if they swarmed at him, even he would be seriously injured.
"What good are your little tricks?"
The ancestor's expression was cold and stern; he tacitly acknowledged the fact, yet sneered contemptuously.
"Given your current state, killing you won't take me much effort."
Jiang Mo laughed loudly, his voice booming with power, looking down at his ancestors with disdain, and said:
"Forget it, even if I offer my neck for execution, you can't kill me."
The next instant, he made a hand seal with one hand, his true qi surging forth, and his innate qi fire raging, transforming into a pure land.
"Ha! I'll take your head right now."
The ancestors were fearless, and even though the bright white flames could burn anything, they still could not penetrate the miraculous effects of the Mirage Gu and burn its true form.
"call out!"
The afterimage vanished, stirring up a howling gale. The ancestor charged in front of Jiang Mo, his five fingers like swords, aiming straight for his throat.
"Boom!"
The ancestor's right hand easily pierced through the Qi-transformed throat, with only wisps of white Qi spreading like ripples, causing no harm whatsoever.
It was at this very moment, so close yet so far, that the indifference deep within the young man's eyes was laid bare.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Jiang Mo chanted the Ancient Spirit-Breaking Incantation. Instantly, the immense pain he had once suffered tormented, disregarding the medium of the body and space, violently bombarded his ancestor's brain.
"what!!!"
The piercing roar created a devastating sonic wave, causing countless rocks and soil to shatter on the ground, unable to withstand the vibrations of that special frequency.
The ancestor bled from all seven orifices, his face contorted. The dozen or so Gu marks engraved on his body using forbidden ancient methods lost control, became dull, and the various enhancements he had brought to his body dissipated one after another.
"boom!"
Jiang Mo's punch, brimming with rage, instantly pierced through his ancestor's chest, splattering blood and shattering his liver.
"Come!"
"It's my turn."
Jiang Mo felt extremely satisfied. His left elbow moved with lightning speed, locking onto his ancestor's cheek and smashing it down hard.
The force was unleashed wildly. Without the amplification of the 'Mountain-Shaking Gu', the body could not withstand the heavy blow. The facial bones suddenly shattered into dust, all the teeth fell out, and the head was almost broken by the elbow. The crisp echo was clearly the result of the misalignment and breakage of the spine.
"Pfft!!!"
The ancestor's consciousness was in chaos. Even though the ancient incantation only lasted for about half a second, his soul was still trembling with pain and he lost control of his body for a moment.
Before it could recover, the container, now devoid of the magical Gu's blessing, was severely damaged by the hammer.
This dramatic reversal left the people outside the barrier feeling both relieved and deeply shocked, their faces still bearing the lingering shock.
"boom!"
The ancestor's head was pressed to the ground by Jiang Mo with one hand, and the rolling white flames quickly gathered, burning away countless silver-gray true qi.
"boom!"
The ancestor, on the verge of death, struggled desperately; if it had delayed even a moment longer, it would have been melted into a pile of bones.
A Gu mark resembling a gecko with six wings suddenly shone brightly, its force field capable of overturning everything, originating from the ancestor and covering the entire barrier.
The terrifying repulsive force stirred up a hurricane that howled across the sky, transforming into an invisible giant hand that pushed the white sea of fire toward the edge of the barrier.
"Pfft!"
Jiang Mo gathered Qi and transformed it into a sharp spear, which he pierced through his ancestor's heart and plunged into the ground.
While resisting that immense force, he stomped his ancestor's back with his left foot, and the immense weight fell like a mountain. He did not forget to grip the spear tightly with his left hand and lock the enemy's wrist firmly with his right hand.
As the two opposing forces formed a perpendicular direction, Jiang Mo's eyes sharpened, and he suppressed his ancestor with all his might. His right hand erupted with power once again, tearing off his ancestor's arm, along with the white tendons and golden blood that flowed all over the ground.
"boom!!!"
What followed was a surging, storm-like repulsive force, but Jiang Mo remained unmoved, his hand falling down as if to smash his ancestor's head with a single blow.
"call out!"
The ancestor, whose vitality had been greatly diminished, was heartbroken and once again activated several Gu worms, repelling Jiang Mo. He then transformed into a streak of silver-gray light and hid a hundred meters away.
"Walk?"
Jiang Mo laughed, a laugh born of anger. He faced the repulsion of the force field, took a step forward, instantly covering a hundred meters, and channeled his Qi into his ancestor's abdomen.
"Boom!!!"
Countless bolts of lightning erupted, internal organs were charred and shattered, and golden blood leaked out uncontrollably. Without the protection of the Mirage Gu, the ancestor was arbitrarily ravaged by Jiang Mo, and was severely injured in less than ten breaths.
"Buzz!"
In desperation, it had no choice but to unleash two Gu: one was "Mountain Shaker," which restored the divine power of the body that had fallen to the bottom of the valley; the other was "Ten Directions," which formed a blood-red barrier that extended and covered from all directions to seal Jiang Mo and buy time.
"How can I leave empty-handed without cutting off your limbs?"
Undeterred by the barrier's obstruction, Jiang Mo plunged his right hand into the void, pulling out a dark red longsword and slashing it towards the crimson barrier in front of him.
"Boom!"
The blood-red cage constructed by the 'Ten Directions Gu' was completely destroyed by the tsunami-like sword energy. The mighty sword light did not restrain itself in the slightest, and even the transparent barrier behind it was cracked.
The ancestor's right arm was severed and his heart was pierced. His mutilated body could only exert about 70% of the power of the 'Mountain-Shaking Gu', which was far from enough to contend with Jiang Mo.
It cast another forbidden spell, and its black hair turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye. The flesh in the wound writhed and intertwined, and in an instant, a new arm grew out, while the hole in its heart continued to shrink.
"Wow..."
A Gu mark silently dissipated and shattered, clearly the price of healing the injury. The ancestor's face was pale, every inch of his flesh trembled, and absurd fear arose in his heart.
"Want to escape?"
"Next time."
The crimson-gold Dao traces in Jiang Mo's eyes lit up slightly. He stopped and stood still, using his true techniques to refine the eight directions.
An invisible wave of Qi slowly spread out, and wherever it passed, objects within the barrier dissipated their Qi and transformed into natural Qi, merging into the barrier and reinforcing the seal.
"Damn it!"
"what did you do to me!"
The ancestor rebuked sharply, its eyes filled with terror. It could clearly sense that the true qi within its body was being continuously devoured at an increasingly rapid pace, which it was completely unable to control.
"Wow!"
At that moment, a crack appeared on the skin of the ancestor's right hand.
That inexplicable power swept across the entire barrier, omnipresent, and in just a moment, it began to attempt to dissolve its body.
While unleashing his true power, Jiang Mo engaged in fierce combat with his sword, unleashing three consecutive sword strikes that crisscrossed and cut down his ancestor, leaving him covered in blood.
As time passed, its body was torn to pieces. After ten rounds of fierce fighting, it was suppressed by Jiang Mo with one hand and could no longer get up, kneeling on the ground.
"Ah! Ah!! Ah!!"
The dignity accumulated over a thousand years burned fiercely. The ancestor could not bear such humiliation and was determined to detonate the Gu marks within his body, dragging Jiang Mo down with him.
"Pfft!"
A cold glint flashed, and Jiang Mo, giving it no chance to struggle, sliced off its limbs, placed his foot on his ancestor's chest, and looked down at it, saying:
"The hatred you vent won't help you turn the tide."
After saying that, Jiang Mo pressed his left hand against its face, and his true magic began to circulate wildly.
"I...I'd rather die...than...give it to you..."
In an instant, the ancestor, who was shaped like a human stick, dimmed his eyes and began to disintegrate from his head, breaking into countless shimmering white energy points.
The remaining dozen or so Gu marks were mostly destroyed, among which the 'Mirage Gu' and 'Longevity Gu' were the most precious. Our ancestor used his last breath to destroy them, not allowing Jiang Mo to touch them.
In the end, only two types of Gu marks remained: one resembling a six-winged gecko and the other resembling a black-footed mountain ant.
Jiang Mo transformed the ancestral Qi into a spherical ball of light, containing unimaginable energy. The remaining vitality of the Qi was astonishing and magnificent.
"Buzz!"
Jiang Mo entered his body, and the Gu mark was branded onto his arm, emitting wisps of eerie light.
The great battle came to an end, and white flames covered the entire barrier, burning away the golden blood that had seeped into the soil and severing all possibility of the ancestors' resurrection.
"Boom!"
The barrier built with the Qi of nature began to collapse. Jiang Mo, who had taken a desperate gamble, stepped on the bones of the overlord of the Southern Frontier on this ancient land and walked toward his own pinnacle.
"boom!"
Exhausted, Jiang Mo, pale-faced, knelt on the ground.
His physical body was undergoing a rapid transformation. He dared not activate the Triple Reversal of Life, and stubbornly endured his injuries. He had to get through this arduous process in order to elevate the strength of his physical body to a new level.
Chapter 170 Reaching New Heights
"Uncle Master!!"
"Master Jiang!!"
The crowd rushed over, fearing something might have happened; Jiang Mo's body was almost entirely unharmed.
Lu Jin tried to help him up, but Gu Yu held his wrist tightly and reminded him:
