When the two clashed, they unleashed boundless gray waves, causing the surrounding palaces and mountains to collapse.

"That's...?! They held on!?"

"how come!!"

Yao Wang, Yue Min, Yue Li, Bei Gong Li, and Zhong Yue were all staring at this scene in disbelief.

"Boom!!!"

The sky erupted with a deafening roar comparable to the beating of a god's drum. Chongyan unleashed all his inner demon techniques, launching a fierce and rapid attack, unleashing dozens of moves, but Jiang Mo calmly dealt with them all with a single hand.

In particular, the ancient Dao True Fire, which burns away all illusory and real matter, and the intertwined and chaotic bladeless blazing light, perfectly constitute a domain that protects the whole body.

No matter what attribute the killing move is, as soon as it gets close, it will be instantly destroyed, disintegrated, cut into countless pieces, and then burned to ashes by the fire.

"Senior Uncle, may I borrow your disguise?"

"We're missing a biting dog inside, and in my opinion, you're the one!"

Jiang Mo laughed loudly, his voice echoing throughout the entire battlefield, making no attempt to conceal his intentions. The other inner demons were too weak to pique his interest at all.

The only one worth taking in is Chongyan, whose combat strength has reached the level of a sect's foundation, even stronger than the Flying Immortal Sect Master whom he personally dealt with.

It is essentially a transformation technique of the Void Gate, closely connected to the entire secret realm.

However, the stronger the inner demon, the easier it is for it to develop sentience and then go out of control. Jiang Mo valued this point, which is why he decided to take it back to try to refine it. He had plenty of ways to deal with it.

"not good!"

Upon hearing the words, Bei Gongli's expression changed drastically. He guessed what this madman was up to and quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, trying to bring back the Sky Gate and avoid the plunder.

Unfortunately, he was a step too late.

As Jiang Mo's playful mood subsided, the power in his left hand suddenly surged several times over, instantly reversing the seemingly stalemate and achieving absolute suppression.

"boom--!"

Chongyan crashed to the ground like a meteorite falling from the sky, but this time, Jiang Mo did not give him a chance to struggle.

"Pfft!!!"

"Pfft!!"

An endless black swamp emerged from the ground, binding Chongyan's body as if he were carrying a black hole on his back. He struggled and roared desperately, but the suppression grew stronger and stronger, and all four of his limbs were bound by the Xuan Sha Ming Tu.

"Boom!!!"

The next instant, the swamp condensed into a sphere, compressing wildly, but was shaken by unimaginable force, almost exploding from the inside.

"You want back what's already in my hands?"

"joke!!!"

The Gate of Emptiness borrowed the power of the secret realm, repeatedly striking the seal, making the restraints of the black swamp seem somewhat weak.

To ensure absolute success, Jiang Mo activated the Tianheng Gu with all his might, setting up a repulsive field in all directions to compress the restless black sphere, which was shrinking, into a small bead the size of a palm.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!"

Immediately, Jiang Mo's mind stirred slightly, and he unleashed another divine power. Eighty-one green buds sprouted from his palm, piercing through the black bead and locking the body of the Chongyan Heart Demon into the depths of the swamp. He frantically extracted and plundered its power, and within just a few breaths, there was a noticeable change; it became so still that it could not move.

"Wow!"

Jiang Mo gently stroked the black bead, setting up a barrier forged from true qi and a blood-red barrier from the Ten Directions Gu. Then, he instantly opened the Heavenly Kingdom and took it inside.

"!!!"

"You fiend, give me back my sect's most precious treasure!!!"

Witnessing this scene, Zhong Yue was so angry that his blood pressure soared, he almost fainted, and felt an unbearable pain in his chest.

"Call?"

Jiang Mo's eyes were cold. He disappeared in an instant, traversing space, and slapped the old man's face. Dozens of flames suddenly burst from his five fingers, smashing the head in his palm. Then he dragged the old man's corpse and threw it towards Yao Wang's location.

"Om!!"

Sensing the approaching, blood-filled corpse, Taotie decisively used its bloodline supernatural power. Its massive, dark maw opened wide, completely engulfing the corpse and absorbing its rich life force.

"Hahaha!! That's great!!"

"kill--!"

Yao Wang and Yue Min joined forces to besiege and kill Bei Gong Li, while Jiang Mo remotely cast the Spirit-Breaking Curse.

Soon, this strongest Supreme Elder, without any assistance, was severely injured and torn apart by two demon kings. His soul light spilled out as he tried to escape, but he was no match for Jiang Mo, who had been guarding the battlefield.

"call out--!"

Bei Gongli's soul fled towards the sect's forbidden area, the place where Grandmaster Mu Jue slept, and where boundless and terrifying Qi was slowly reviving. Sect Leader Ta Xu and the other two must have made contact with the ancestor!

In an instant, just an instant, I can leave this bloody battlefield.

Bei Gongli was on edge, her mind blank, unable to calm down.

Even the Void Gate was stolen, and the Demon Lord was far beyond his ability to resist. Moreover, the aura of death was ever-present. He fought with all his might, even using secret techniques, and fled at all costs.

"Om!!"

However, Jiang Mo made his move, shattering Bei Gongli's illusions. He teleported in front of the old man first and, under the old man's terrified gaze, slammed his sword down in front of him.

"Boom!!!"

The sword light traversed a hundred miles, and the translucent soul, under the wash of the sword energy, was completely annihilated, its life forever silenced.

"what!!"

"Elder Beigong!"

"Master!"

The remaining less than a thousand members of the Stepping Void Palace felt as if the sky had fallen when they saw their most revered and strongest elder being brutally murdered by the Demon Lord. They were all filled with despair and their faces turned pale.

"Boom!"

At the same time, from the depths of the forbidden area of ​​the Void Palace, indescribable fluctuations emanated, as if some enormous creature was reviving, causing the earth to shake and tilt.

"They've arrived! Venerable Xuanzun!"

Yue Min, who sensed the danger immediately, shouted a warning.

"Well, this farce should end now."

Jiang Mo gazed into the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips. He didn't know when it had started, but a blood moon had been hanging high above the forbidden area of ​​the Stepping Void Palace, emanating unparalleled power—clearly a technique belonging to Mu Jue.

"call!!"

As the hurricane howled, Jiang Mo activated the Gu worms, and the terrifying pulling force swept across the entire battlefield in an instant. Countless disciples of the Step Void Palace screamed in panic, their bodies uncontrollably converging into the sky, forming a defensive wall.

"Buzz!!!"

The blood moon in the distance showed no signs of stopping; endless crimson light was rapidly gathering, as if brewing some kind of deadly move.

"Grandmaster!! No, they're still there!!"

On the mountain peak in front of the forbidden area, the sect leader of Taxu and the two supreme elders noticed the hostages being held. They were so shocked that their faces turned pale, and they hurriedly tried to stop them.

This attack would destroy the entire sect, wiping out its foundation built over thousands of years. Only a few of them would remain, and the cost would be far beyond what they could accept.

However, their desperate admonitions were met with no mercy. The blood moon shone brightly in the horrified eyes of the group.

"Do not!!!"

An elderly man roared, his lips trembling, unable to accept such a dramatic change. What had they awakened?

The faint sound was drowned out by the deafening roar. A streak of blood-red light traversed tens of thousands of meters, striking directly at the battlefield from the depths of the forbidden area. The time it took to reach it was almost negligible.

"He has guts."

The blood-red light shone through the wall of people and reached our eyes.

Jiang Mo couldn't help but smile faintly. Mu Jue was truly decisive, completely unaffected by these hostages.

He said this because he knew that as the Lord of the Realm, his authority was terrifyingly high.

Aside from being unable to restrain him, who is also a master of the realm, the opponent can instantly teleport away hostages or change the direction of their killing move.

But that person refused, choosing to kill them all at once. He wouldn't even lift a finger, which shows that the Void Palace was utterly insignificant to Mu Jue.

The familiar yet unfamiliar fluctuations of true qi matched the clues in Shangzun's memories, and Jiang Mo was certain that the person who made the move was Mu Jue, who had survived to this day.

"boom!!!"

The next moment, he retaliated, holding his sword with both hands, his smile growing even brighter, to the point of being chilling.

Accumulate strength.

Swing the sword.

Slash it out.

In one swift motion, an even more magnificent incandescent sword light, like the roar of a blue dragon, forcefully crushed through.

The countless disciples of the Void Stepping Sect were sent to their deaths without even a wailing.

Then, the sword light and the blood light collided, bursting into a dazzling light.

The surging Qi waves, like a world-ending storm, emitted a sharp and piercing tremor. After a few breaths of stalemate, the blood-red light collapsed and was torn apart by the sword light with unstoppable force, sweeping across ten thousand meters in an instant.

"Bang!!!"

The blood moon, suspended in mid-air, shattered, and the nearby sect leader and two supreme elders were also affected, suffering severe injuries all over their bodies and nearly perishing, collapsing to the ground.

Behind them, the majestic mountains were cleaved in half, turning into countless rubble. A silvery glow rose into the sky, and a slender figure gradually appeared.

More than 1,700 years later, the Supreme Being's disciple and his successor meet at this moment.

It was as if it were a fateful duel. Both of them were curiously observing each other. In this world, there were only the two of them, like the sun and moon hanging side by side, while everything else was like dust and ants.

The man who came into Jiang Mo's view had a face like jade, a calm expression, and eyes as deep as an abyss. He wore a maple-colored Taoist robe, and his terrifying aura was extremely well contained, with not a trace of it escaping. One after another, legendary ancient magical artifacts were quietly floating beside him, including the Devouring Heaven Furnace, the Evil-Subduing White Jade Halberd, the Exquisite Nine-Aperture Jade, the Crimson Blood Demon Armor, and so on.

Each of these items has an astonishing origin, being an artifact on par with the Void Gate. The Crimson Blood Demon Armor, existing in liquid form and unpredictable, attached to Mu Jue's body, is the treasure of the Bi Xuan Temple. Clearly, the destruction of this sect is closely related to him.

Jiang Mo was also very familiar with another ancient magical artifact, the White Jade Halberd for Subduing Evil.

That was the natal magic weapon of the Supreme Disciple, a masterpiece passed down from the fifth generation of the Three Ones Sect Master. It was the only treasure that was not taken into the tomb and left to future generations, but unexpectedly it ended up in the hands of Mu Jue.

Compared to these material possessions, what surprised Jiang Mo the most was that this monster's reversal of life energy was different from that of the Supreme Being who broke through to the 7th level of the Profound Fate Realm back then, but it was also very close, meaning that it had one foot in the door.

At this moment, Mu Jue, who noticed Wu Liangjun, showed a hint of emotion in his eyes. He thought of a deceased friend and the unique Yunshuang Jade Robe that symbolized the sect leader's identity. In a daze, the figure of the Supreme Venerable overlapped with that of Jiang Mo.

"Lord of the Realm..."

Mu Jue murmured to himself, feeling the same terror Jiang Mo possessed, even more terrifying than his master at his peak. Jiang Mo's blood energy was vast and boundless, like a crimson sun falling from the depths of space to earth.

"Master is so good to you, he has given you everything."

"And how should I address you, young junior?"

The dazed look in Mu Jue's eyes was instantly covered by coldness, and his voice revealed a sense of vicissitude and indifference, like an all-powerful overlord questioning the mortals under his rule.

He calmly looked at Jiang Mo. A great battle between the two sides was inevitable. He was located within the secret realm of the ruler and had many ancient magical artifacts by his side. He was not afraid at all.

Jiang Mo smiled but didn't answer, instead asking, "The title isn't important. Have you thought about your last words?"

"You can't kill me."

Mu Jue remained expressionless, showing neither anger nor fear. He slightly spread his hands, and another ancient seal flew out from his sleeve and landed in his palm.

"It's rare to see a junior from the sect, and it's quite nice to catch up with you. I may not be able to kill you, but it's not difficult to imprison you for life until you die of old age, your soul sinking into oblivion, unable to escape. Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mo didn't mince words. He was always prepared to fight, and casually mentioned:

“There really is. Consider it a favor to the Venerable One. I really want to ask you why you launched that rebellion back then. If possible, I will bring the answer to the Venerable One’s grave.”

"Oh?"

Do you think you can get out of here alive?

Mu Jue smiled and said nonchalantly, "Never mind, it's no trouble to tell you. I've always been a spy planted by the Taxu Palace, so how can you say I've betrayed them?"

"Really?" Jiang Mo asked again.

"Ah."

Mu Jue looked calmly up and sighed softly, "Master, have you left?"

“You destroyed his lineage and killed his disciples; you have no right to call him your master.”
